Now the motherles lives with his domineering step- brother, Bruce, and Bruce's wife, Ann. Teny fears that Bruce and Ann’s father, Martin Bevis, will| perruade Pierre to invest in a mine the money his actress-mother | had left for his theatrical train-| ing,. Heping to steel the boy's de- termination, Tony reads to him a play showing what Pierre’s ex- perience might be should he yield| to them. On the eve of Plerre's departure for dramatic school, Tony reads the play to Ann. Her | father enters the first scene and | scolds Tony for interferring. But| when Martin mentions Harriett's name, Teny's anger mounts. mar- child Chapter 15 NO TIME TO LOSE Both Martin and his daughter. Ann, remained speechless, while| Tony, as if he were speaking lines ¥, continu “You have said enough, Martin Bevis. Please confine your criti- cisms to me. T have become so accustomed to the yapping of our Orchard Hills poodles and squalling of tne village cats that I am no longer disturbed by your noise.” Martin, cowed by the dignity of the old actor, but stung by his| words, could only mumble, “Huh!| You think you're somebody, don’t you?” “T know I am,” returned the old actor proudly. “And I advise you sir, to discuss things which come within +the limits of your: intelli- gence.” At this Ann asserted herself. “Stop it, both of you! I won't have | you quarreling like this in my house. You two have been friends since your school days! For two pins, I'd give you both a spanking!” \ Old Tony relaxed from his the- | atrical pose and Martin turned away mumbling. | Ann continued: “You have no| right to talk to Father Tony like| this, Pa—you know how he love Pierre.” | Martin faced his daughter. “We! {be one of our | hurt Tony were touched. “Never you mind, Pa," the young woeman sald comfortingly. “You have not made a million doliars but you have been a wonderful father and there’s not a man in Orchard Hill that's more highly thought of inside the church and out.” “That’s true, Martin,” said Old Tony in the same vein, “and you have raised a daughter that is worth more than all the gold ever mined. I'm sorry that I spoke so unkindly.” “That's all night, Tony,” returned Martin heartily, “I guess I was a| little brash myself. You this Nevada gold mine proposition is a chance in a lifetime for Bruce. I don’t want Ann’s husband to turn out the same kind of a failure I am.” “Who is this Nevada promoter who is offering Bruce such a golden cpportunity?” asked Old Tony. “He’s a mining man in Red Butte,” Martin answered. “Bruce {knows him.

Old Tony said, “How do you do, Bruce?” Bruce answered with a cool stare |and a gruff, “Hello,” then, pointed- ly turning his back, he said to Martin: “Our old boss would pick this evening to send me to Camden with some papers for Fuller, the president of the Farmers' National.” “It’s business that has to be in Fuller's hands when the bank opens tomarrow, I suppose,” Treturned Martin. “Yeah' 'Bruce replied, “but out- side of banking hours my time's supposed to be my own.

PATENTED ROASTING PROCESS CAPTURES FLAVOR OF COFFEE Accurate Control of Heat Roasts Every Berry to a Perfect Degree Coffee has the most delicate flavor of any food-product. Yet it is com- pletely developed by Hills Bros.’ ex- clusive Controlled Roasting process. As the accuracy of the hour-glass depends upon an even, continuous flow . ., a little at a time.. . . so the matchless, uniform flavor of Hills Bros. Coffee is produced by Con- trolled Roasting—the patented proe- ess that roasts evenly, continyously . . a little at a time. The rare blends flow through the roasters in automatically measured lots. The speed of operation and the tem- perature remain the same. Natur- ally, Hills Bros. Coffee never varies in flavor. The fisual, bulk-roasting methods can’t maintain_a uniform roast. That% why ordinary coffees don’t have the same wonderful flavor as ills Bros. Coffee. Controlled Roast- ing is patented. Vacuum cans keep Hills Bros. Coffee fresh always. Air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, is taken out and kept out of these cans. Even ordimr&, “air-tight” cans do not keep coffee fresh. Order Hills Bros. Coffee' today. Ask for it by name, and look for the Arab trade-mark on the can. Hills Bros.

That on or about January 1931, he ‘reappointed George B. Awvi the Superintendent of our Municipal Railway, knowing him to be incompetent, not a recog- nized expert in the managemnt of street railways, nor that specially fitted by education, train- ing or experience to perform’ the duties of his office, in violation of his, the Mayor's, oath of office and in ‘direct and wilful violation of Section 3, Article XIX, of the City Charter.'” Mayor Frank Edwards was elect- ed Mayor of Seattle by a large majority in 1928, and re-elected in 1930 by approximately a two to one vote. If the people should vote to recall him today, under the amended charter his successor would be named by the City Council and he would serve until the next municipal ‘election in March, 1932, MRS.
