BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, BEGIN HERE TODAY: Peter Liner has lost his memory from shef shock in France. Upon his return to London he fails to recognize Nan Marraby, to whom he be- came engaged before he went away. Nan, heart-broken, has re- turned home to care for her three motherless stepbrothers. She has teen Peter often since he came to stay with John Arnott, at the home of Ar- nott's widowed sister, near the Mar. raby estate; but Peter has failed to show any signs of rethembering. Nan who has become daspsrate by her father's financlal difficulties and Pe- ter's apparent indifference, has agreed to marry Harley Sefton, money lender, who has told her that Peter {s also in his debt. In London Peter meets Joan Endicott on her way to visit Nan. She tells him that he is the man who Is breaking Nan's heart. They agree to find out why Nan {s going to marry Sefton. The next morning the boys are on thelr way to the woods to meet Peter when Joan calls back the smallest of the trio and presses a letter into his hand. | NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY “That's for Mr. Lyster,” she sald, | . urgently. “But nobody must know | —promise me . . . quick!” Claudie flushed with pleasure at the honor conferred on him. | “Only you and me,” he €aid in a stage whisper. ! “You mustn't even Buster or Nan.” | “No." He peered round behind |ner towards the house. | “Not tell nobody,” he said import- fantly i “And mind vou don't lose it,”” Joan {entreated, “It's frightfully tant—" He nodded “Not to tell Lyster,” he said again. and nodded, “Yes—good hoy--now run along.” She watched him patter off Ithrough the sunshine, his little feet ‘cending small clouds of gray dust behind him at each step; then she {went back to the house. | Claudie reached the end of fhe road hot and breathless: lie looked up and down eagatly, but could not see his brothers.

Pater, of courge! His lttle face itened——he started to run; then ddenly he stopped dead as Harley €efton broke through the under- growth and eame towards him. Claudie hated Harley Sefton. His { vager footsteps came to a frightened halt as he looked up at the man's hard face; it was quite unconsciously that he put the hand which elutched Joan'’s mote behind his back in an attitude of defiance, But for that little gesture Sefton would probably have passed on with- out speaking, but, as it was, he tell vigorouely. nobody—only Mr. Joan smiled stores . ihe a Jim eor | impor- | stopped and smiled down at the |child unpleasantly, | “And where are you running to?" |he asked.

Tn his fright he let the precious note drop to the mossy pathway at his feet and Harley Sefton saw it. He kept hold of Claudie with one hand and stooped to pick it up with the other.

Peter Rabbit had over to the 014 Orchard to how Johnny Chuck and Polly Chuck were getting along. He found them taking a sun bath on their own doorstep and look- so fat that Peter wondered how y could breathe. Their children {had left home to go out Into the | Great World and Polly and Johnny had no one to think of but {hemseises. To Peter it had always been a mystery how they dared go to sicep and sleep all winter. He couldn’t understand it. “Why when I sleep, 1 slcep both ears open,” satd Peter to him- selt after he had thought things over. “At the least little sound I am awake. But those two go down into their bedrooms, curl up and sieep 80 soundly that they could be dragged out without being wakened. 1 should think that they would b afraid that Reddy Fox or Old Man Coyote would come in and eat them while they are asleep.” “Gioed morning Johnny," sald as he came hopping up. “You olly are looking just as fine as nd a little finer. 1 suppose ! vou are making the most of the sun- | shine bafore going msleep for the winter. You folks puzzie me.” “How so, Peter, how ) 12 | manded Johnny Chuck. ‘By not bélng worried over going to sleep,” said Peter, “Why should we worry?" Johnny asked looking very much puzzled. “‘Weall," said Peter, “I understand you sleep very gound! Johnny nodded his head that?" said “I ghould think that you would be afraid that Reddy Fox might come and find ¥ou while you are sleeping that way,” =aid Peter. Johnny shook his head. “T don't worry about that at all” said he “@'ve lived a iong time and Reddy now with 50 de- “What of he. | Tox has never been in while I've | been asleep.” | Peter grinned. “You wouldn't have |lived a long time if he had,” sald | he. “But if he hasn't, why hasn't {he? | It was Johnny Chuck's turn to |grin. “You'll have to ask Reddy,” sald he. “Yes sir, you will have to ask Reddy Fox." “I suppose,” sald Peter, “it is be- |cause you have your doorway be- tween stones and roots and the open- ing isn't big cnough for him to get | through.” “That may have something to do with it sometimes,” sald Johnny. | “Still T have had a home right out fn the open where it was easy dig- ging and I spent the winter in that hole. Polly here has done the same thing. No Peter, we don't worry when we go to sleep. The only time | we worry is when he are not fat | enough. But we won't have that to | worry about this year, 1f Polly gets | much fatter she won't be able to see.” “Polly fsn't any fatter than you are,” declared Peter. “I'm almost | atraid to sit beside you.” “Why?” demanded Johnny “For fear you'll blow up,” Peter.

She struck at him again and again, 8he gaw the world red.

Sefton looked round uneasily. He was a coward at heart, as are most bullies. “Stop that little devil's nolse,” he snld savagely, “If you think I'm going to put up with his nonsense and yours as well . . ."” He L.oke off, releasing Nan and wheeling gharply as someone crash ed through the undergrowtl, and the next moment Peter Lyster was there, not a yard from them. How much he had heard or seen none of them knaw, but there was a look in his face which Nan had never thought to see there again—a look in his eyes as he turned from her to Sefton that made her heart swoon in her breast for sheer happi- ness, She put out her arms and drew Clandie into them and away from the two men who faced one another in the narrow path Sefton laughed looked at Peter, “Ah! the play-actor!” he said with detestable inflection. “The man who lost his memory to avold further service, or to escape an unwelcome engagement. The man who forgot . . . conveniently forgot— But he never finished that sen- tence; Peter made a lunge forward and caught him fairly between the eyes. Clandie cried out, but with delight now rather than fear, and Nan hid her eyes. But in a contest between a brave man and a coward the ending is a foregone conclusion, and in two mo- insolently as he and raging thing, to hide his shame in the heart of the wood. Peter was breathing heavily and his face was very pale. There was a dazed sort of look about him; hig man as he was, he trembled like a girl now his rage had died down. And, then, quite suddenly, with- out comment of any sort, Lyster turned on his heel and began to walk slowly away. His steps dragged—his head was downbent—he walked like a man who is thoroughly exhausted. Nan gently released Claudie's clinging fingers and flew after Peter down the narrow path, her light steps hardly making any sound on the mossy ground; she caught him up—she spoke his name breathlessly, fearfuliy. “Mr. Lyster But he did not stop, or look at he just said hoarsely: et me go—Ilet me go,” as if he could bear no more, and Nan fell back silently. 8he took Claudie's hand and they went home without speaking.
