But I wisely held my tongue, 1 knew that he neither needed nor expected any answer to his questior “Here 1've been racking by poor ola bean to find out where we were going to blow in out of the rain, when all the time 1 have in my pocket the key to as cosy a little apartment as any- body would want to see In a year's search, The question’s solved, dear. We'll hang up our hats tonight under a real roof, and you and Claire can try light housekeeping if you don't want to go out to dinner.” He paused with a triumphant look at me. It was now my cue to answer him, and I put the natural query “Have you rented it?" He laughed outright Madge Hesitates “No such luck You must think pice little apartments are to be had for the asking down in little old N Yawk.

"Old Heb Biiss and I were in the same training camp together, We've been for years, We could have eaech shirts and socks at any minute, 1 couldn’t insult him worse than to of- fer him money for his apartment.” I made the mental comment that Mrs, Dliss and 1 did not have the me intimaey, but I made no further protest, For Dicky had set his mind upon ocecupying the apartment, and there was nothing to do but to make the best of it, DBut how I dreaded keepihg house with the household goods dear to the heart of a woman who was a total stranger to me ! “You'll ask Claire to come along, of course? Make her come if she ob- Jeets,” Dick¥ asked, Now, I had promised myself not to lose sight of Claire Foster until I had seen her with recovered poise, safe In the shelter of her own apartment, with her own friends. But with fem- inine inconsisteney, it annoyed me to have Dicky ask such action as If it were the only possible thing for me to do. I must not let him guess my feeling, however, so with a little moue I echoed his words of a few minutes before, and purposely tmitated his haughty intonation, “I'll take care of Claire,” 1 sald. “She'll be glad to come anywhere if she's sure of eluding Dr. Pettit.

KATE WARD, widow of DAN WARD, living with her father, JUSTIN PARSONS, has a visitor, CHINATOWN AL who says Dan was father of her cl DOROTHY. Kate naturally is deeply per- turbed. Then, in the stillness of the night, a “voice” whispers to her of a mysterious trunk, which, could she find it, would prove to contain the story of Dan's past. A few evenings later, near their home, Kate and her father find an ‘unconselous man, victim of an auto crash. They carry him in. He recovers, gives his name as JAMES: LATHAM, and tells Kate he loves her. Kate, torn between her old affec- tion for Dan and yet fond of Latham, does not know what to do. GO ON WITH ;flfl STORY In the cool of the early morning Kate sought the wooded spot on the level stretch back of the cottage. She felt that she could think more calmly, more sanely in the quiet of the woods. She heard footsteps, however, as she followed the path winding between the trees and shortly came face to face with James Latham. “What—you, too?” he laughed. “Yes, I couldn't sleep and I did want to think—and now you're here.” “Which is as good as telling me to get out of your woods!” He laughed and then continued, “But I'm not go- ing to! I'm going to stay here just long enough to tell you once more something I told you last night. “Lady Fair, I love you! “And,” Latham was suddenly seri- ous, “‘you can't accuse me of being in- sincere, because no man would test his courage enough to say those three words in the light of early morning, unless he meant them. It's easy enough_to make love in moonlight— Lady Mair; sometimes hard not to, whether you mean it or not. But when a man tells you, before break- fast in tHe morning, that he loves you—he means it!” “Jimmy-lad, I might believe you once in'a while if you didn't joke so much,” Kate tried to meet his mood, but her voice was lusterless. “You'll have to believe me—I in- tend to keep saying it over and over until you do,” softly. “I mean it, Lady-Fair.” “You mean it? You really mean that you do care and you would do something for me, even if it cost you an effort?” she asked. *“I would, dear,” earnestly. **Then Jimmy-—you say you Kknew Dan?” hesitatingly. “Yes, dear.” RED PEPPER FOR RHEUMATIC PAIN Red Pepper Rubt takes the “‘ouch” from sore, stiff, aching joints.

I must know whether I can believe in him or whether I can't. If—if I should find that I couldn't—" Kate's voice, low and steady, finally ceased. “If you couldn't dear?” James La- tham had taken her hand. “If I should find that I couldn't be- lieve in him as I did, I think it would harden my spirit so that no one would love me! “And there's something that I must tell you, Jimmy,” she went on. “You'll |think I'm wild, but you must know " And Kate told James Latham about the voice which she heard, told him what she thought she had heard the voice say. When she finished speaking James Latham looked up. “Kate,” he said, that trunk is” “I know where (To Be Continued). (Copyright, 1923, NEA Serviee). SLEEPY-TIME TALES A S ISAAC BUNNY STAYS TO DINNER. It was plainly to be seen that Uncle Isaac Bunny intended to stay with the Rabbit family in their new home. He had crept into the house ,in the hollow tree before they arrived there, “to welcome them,” he had said. And then, as soon as Mr. and Mrs. Rabbit and their son little Jim- my had come in and dropped their bundles upon the floor, Uncle Isaac beamed upon them and made a few | remarks. “I hope,” he said, “you'll enjoy | your new home here.

Jimmy Rabbit pulled out his ap- ple with an air of great pride. Uncle Isaac quickly seized it. His eyes glistened greedily as he held it to his twitching nose. “Mhm! How good it smells!" he ex- claimed, “We'll put this apple up here on this shelf, where we can all see it. It's so handsome ‘twould be a pity to eat it.” | "l was going to eat it now,” said Jimmy Rabbit wistfully, “Oh, no!

Mrs, Rabbit ne longer tried to whis- per to Jimmy, It was too late for that, But she did her best to cateh her husband's eye, Mr, Rabbit's gasge, however, Wwan- dered everywhere except in his wife's direction. To tell the truth, he be- gan to see that gtting Unecle Isaac out of their new home would be no easy matter, And belng a kind-hearted person, Mr, Rabbit couldn't forget that there was a great anowstorm raging outside; and Uncle Isaac was not as young as he was once, Even if he was a lazy, good-for nothing old scamp, it scemed a pity not to let him say and enjoy at least one good meal with them-——their first meal in tgir new home, A little later Mr, Rabbit explained all this to his wife—out of Uncle Isaac’s hearing. “Wae're lucky to find such a fine home,” Mr, Rabbit reminded her, “And you know it was Uncle Isaac who told me about the place, It won't hurt to give him one square “I shan't mind if it stops at one,” sald Mrs. Rabbit, “But as for feedify him three time a day for the rest of the winter—well, I'd rather move right away and live somewhere else.,” “Now, don't worry!" said Mr, Rab- bit cheerfully. “After we've had din- ner I'll drop a hint or two. And I'm sure Uncle Isaac will go along about his business.” “His business,” sald Mrs. Rabbit, cried Uncle! “is to stay here until spring.” “Nonsense!" her husband retorted. And he gave Mrs. Rabbit a pat on the back. He had found that pats en the back eften calmed her when nothing | else would And then they all sat down to dtl-l ner. - (Copyright, 1922, hy Metropolitan | Newspaper Serviee.)

Cut the lard into the flour mixed with the salt, moisten with the water until dough is formed stift enough to handle, take onto a board, roll out and spread with the butter, roll up and it is ready to use, It may be rolled out two or three times and part of the butter be spread on each time, This will make a crisp pastry, but not as flaky as when all lard is used.
