BURGESS, Even though you think you must, Never show tiat you distrust. —Mrs. Wren. Jenny Wren and Mr. Wren were not the only ones worrled by Black Pussy's discovery of the nest in the old cout. Farmer Brown's Boy was worried. *“I had forgotten all about that Cat,” sald Farmer Brown's Boy, talking to himself, as he often does. “It will be no trouble at all for her to climb that post, and she’ll do it when nobody is around to drive her aw. t watch all the time, Be- sides, is likely to do it in the night. Something has got to be done about it. Yes, sir, something has Eot to be done about it. But what?” Farmer Brown's Boy sat down and went into & brown study—that is, he began to think very hard. He thought 5o hard he forgot to whistle. For a sh, long time he sat and thought and nought, and his freckled face wore worried look. At last his face d and he began to whistle. Then, for a time, he was very busy in the barn. Late that afternoon Mr. Wren, who wis still worrying about Black Pussy, saw Farmer Brown's Boy come out of the barn h his hands full of thinzs and go straight over to the post to hich was nailed his old coat. Of irse, when he got there Jenny Wren heard hi mand popped out to Wwhat was going on. see Farmer HBrown's Boy winked at her. “Don't worr. said he, “I am goinz to fix thing Black Pussy cannot get at you. or n't understand T x a word h A when he took a ammer and nails and bezan to pound on that post she her trust in Farm.r Brown's Boy.

He kept right on working. and he was good as his word, for in a few minutes he gath- ered up his things and went back to the barn. From the doorway he watched Jenny and Mr. Wren. “OF ALL THINGS!" EXCLAIMED MR. WREN AS THEY INSPECTED WHAT FARMER BROWN'S BOY HAD BEEN DOING. “Of all things!” exclaimed Mr. Wren, as they inspected what Farm- .er Brown's Boy had been doing. *Now, what do you suppose that thing is for?" Jenny hadn’t the least idea. so for once she held her tongue. Besides, she was In a hurry to get back to those preclous eggs. It is no won- der that Mr. Wren wondered what “that_thing” was for. Around that post Farmer Brown’'s Boy had nailed a plece of tin. It went completely around the post and was about two feet deep. Mr. Wren studied and studled it, but he couldn't make out what it was for. In fact, he spent the rest of the afternoon studying it. He actually forgot to sing. Farmer Brown's Boy laughed. “You haven't discovered it yet, but once again all is well” said he. “That plece of tin puzzles you, but it is go- ing to fool some one else, unless I am greatly mistaken. And when it does, you will thank me for it.” (Copyright, 1921, by T. W. Burgess.) LISTEN_,_\_’VORLD! BY ELSIE ROBINSON. This talk s especlally for men folks. It is about four walls tired- ness. That's a species of tired- about, yet there are few things more dreadful in the world. It's the tired- ness of the woman worker in the home. And for those who face it cheerily there should be laurel wreaths of beaten gold. Alen are apt to measure & woman’s ! vormin. When Mom Fell Into the Creek. SHE HELD ONYO HER RoD . AND FINALLY LANDED THE BIGGEST [FISH OF THE DAY — THE (Continued from Yesterday’s Star.) “If he don’t, let me tell him,” she interrupted. “To the mnearest police station! That's where I'm oft.” Wrayson glanced quickly at the Colonel, who seemed in no way dis- composed. “Naturally,” he assented. “No ome, my dear young lady, will interfere with you in your desire to carry out your painfully imperfect sense of Justice. Pray pass out!” She hesitated for a moment. Her poor little brain was struggling, per- haps, for the last time, to adapt itself to his point of view—to understand why, at a moment so_critical, he should treat her with the easy com- posure and tolerant good-nature of one who gives to a spollt child its own way. Then she saw_signs of further interference on Wrayson's part, and she delayed no longer. her, and stood for a moment with his back against it, for Wrayson had shown signs of a desire to follow the woman whose egress he had just permitted. He looked into thelr faces, white with horror — full of dread of what was to come, and he smiled reassuringly. “Amy,” he said, turning_to the Baroness, “surely you and Wrayson here are possessed of some grains of common sense. Louise, I know, is too easily swayed by sentiment. But you, ‘Wrayson! Surely I can rely on you!" “For anything,” Wrayson answered, with_trembling lips. “But what can I do? What is there to be done?” The Colonel smiled gently. “Simply to listen _intelllgentty— sympathetically if you can,” he de: clared. “I want to make my position clear to you if I can. You heard what that poor young woman called me? Probably you would have used the same word yourself. A mur” derer?! heard! “When I came back from the Sou- dan twelve years ago, I had been in- strumental in killing some thousands of brave men, T dare say I had killed a score or 80 with my own hand. Was I a murderer then?” “No!" Wrayson answered. ‘Tt was a ‘different thing.” “Then kllling is not necessarily the Colonel remarked. “Good! Now take the case of a man like Morris Parnes. He belonged to the class of humanity which you can call by no other name than that ‘Whatever he touched he de- filed. He was without a single good instinct, a single passable quality. ‘Wherever he lived, he bred contami- natifon. Whoever touched him was ‘Wrayson muttered. T work by the work of a man and a woman's _wearlness by a man's muscle ache. That's hardly falr. The load a man carries Is heavy, be_he bricklayer or bank president. But the plain little wife, who works at home, often faces a strain that would land bricklayers and bank presidents in_padded cells. She faces_the terrible strain of aloneness—of solltary confinement. Unless you have worked In both— home and office or factory—you can- not~know the full tension of that strain. -For the outside worker there is the constant stimulus of the other workers. Whether the worker real- izes it or not, it puts wings on the hours and the loads. The confusions, contacts, Interruptions and diversions rre quickeners of energy. But the woman in the kitchen has nono of that. She must be a self- starter. Che carries a dead load and nothing &ases her mind of the gall- ing rub of it. By and by that galled spot burns its way Into her temper and at night—she nags. Wouldn't you, bro.her?—Don’t blame her. If she does it tonight, remem- ber what I've told you and take her to the movies Instead. —_— At the age of twenty-five years Miss Clara Goldhurst is the only woman put and call dealer in the world. came to this country from Russia thirteen years ago. She | may have been bad, but he wa the worse for it. His 'nfluence upon the world was an unchang'ng one for evil. Put aslde sentiment for one moment, false sentiment, I should say, and ask yourself what possible sin can there be In taking the life of such a one. If he had gone on four legs instead of two, his breed would have been exterminated centuries ago.” “We are not the judges,” Wrayson began, weakly enough. “Wa are, sir,” the Colomel thun- dered. “For what else have we been given brains, the moral semse. the knowledge of good or evil? There are those amongst us who become de- cadents, whose presence amongst us breeds corruption, whose dirty little lives are like the trail of a foul in- sect across the page of life. T hold it a just and moral thing to rid the world of such a creature. The sanc- tity of human life s the canting cry of the falsely sentimental. Human life is sacred or not, according to its achlevements. Such a one as Morris ‘Barnes 1 would brush away like a poisonous fly. “Bentham!” Wrayson faltered. killed him. sir!” the Colonel an- awered. “and others of his kidney be- fore him. Loulse knew it. T argued with her as I am doing with you, but it was useless. Nevertheless, I have lived as seemed good to me. “There is the law,” Wrayson sald, with a horrified glance toward Louise. He understood now. The Colonel bowed his head. “I am prepared,” the Colonel anv kwered, “to pay the penalty of all re- formers.” There was & ring at the bell Wrayson threw open the door. A small boy stood there.

You'll see she doesn’t come to grief! There was the sound of a heavy fall in the room esbove. The Colonel's face assumed an air of intense irri- tation. “It's that infernal window pole” he @cclared. “I had doubts about it all the time.” ‘Wrayson looked at him in horror. “What do you mean?" he demanded. “Perhaps you had better go up and see,” the Colonel answered, taking up his hat. “A_very commonplace trag- edy after all! I don't quite see what else he could have done. He was pen- he'd been smoking too many cigar- ettes and drinking too much cheap liquor, and he was in danger of ar- rest for selling the landlord’s furni- ture. No other end for him, I am afraia” Wrayson threw open the door. “Don’t hurry,” the Colonel dsclared. “You'll probably find that he has hanged himself: but he must have been dead for some time.” Wrayson tore up the stairs. The Colonel watched him for a moment. Then, with a little sigh, he began to descend. “False sentiment” he murmured to self sadly. *“The world's full of hi 1 CHAPTER XLIT LOVE REMAINS ‘Wrayson rode slowly up the great avenus, and paused at the bend to see for the first time at close quar- ters the house, which from the val« ley below had seemed little more than a speck of white set in a deep bower of green. Seen at close quarters its size amazed him. With its cluster of outbuildings, it oocupied nearly the whole of the plateau, which waas like & jutting tableland out from the side of the mountain. It was of two stor- ies only, and encircled with a great veranda supported by embowered pil- lars. Free at last from the densely growing trees, Wrayson, for the first time during his long climb, caught an uninterrupted view of the m: - cent panorama below. A land of hills, of black forests and shining rivers; a land uncultivated but rich in promise, magnificent in its primitivism. It was a wonderful dwelling this, of which the owner, springing .down from the veranda, was now on his way to meet his guest. The two men shook hands with un- affected heartiness.- Duncan Fitzmau- rice, in his white linea riding clothes, seemed taller than ever, a little gaunt and thin, too, from a recent attack of fever. There was no doubt about the pleasure with which he received his guest. 3 “Where 1s Louise?” he asked, look- ing behind down the valley. “Coming up in the wagon,” Wray- son answered. “She has been riding all day and was tired.” A Kaffir boy came out with a tray and glasses. Wrayson helped himself to a whisky and soda, and lit & cigar. “T'll get my pony and ride back ‘with you to meet them,” Duncan sald. ‘Wrayson detained him. “One moment,” he said, “I have something to say to you first.” Duncan glanced at him a little anx- fously. Wrayson answered the look. “Nothing — disturbing,” he sald. “You learnt the end of everything from my letters?" “I think so.” Duncan answered. “The verdict on your father's death was absolutely unanimous,” Wray- son sald. “He was seen to stagger on the platform just as the traln came In, and he seemed to make every effort to save himself. He was killed quite instantaneously. I do not think that any one had a suspicion that it was not entirely accidental.” Duncan nodded. nd the other affair?™ “You mean the death of Sydney Barnes? No one has ever doubted that he committed sulcide. Everything seemed to point to it. There is only one man who knew about Morris Barnes and probably guessed the rest. His name was Heneage, and he was your father’s friend. He did not speak when he was alive, 80 he is not likely to now. There is the young ‘woman, of course, Mrs. Morris Barnes. She has married again and gone to Canada. Loulse looked after her.” Duncan took up his riding whip from the table. ‘“Now tell me,” he sald, “what 1t is thl}; you lllvad!o hlly to mq W “Do you read the papers? son asked abruptly. ¥ “Only 80 far as they treat of matters connected with this country,” Dun- can answered. read, them, of the “You have not Mexonian divorce?".

A couple of wagons ani sev- eral Kaffir boys with led horses just entering the valley. “Yes!™ he sald, “she is free Something in his intonation, some change in his face, gripped hold of Duncan. He caught his visitor by the shouider roughly. “What the devil do you mean” h domanded. “What difference dors it make? She would never dare—to—-—"" “You can never tell.” Wrayson said, with a little sigh, “what a woman will dare to do. Tell me the truth, Duncan. You care for her still?” “God knows it!" he anawered fierce- ly. “There has never been another woman. There never could be.” “Jump on your pony, then, and ride down and meet them. Gently, man!
