Love’s Embers Adele Garrison’s Absorbing Sequel to “Revelations of a Wife” Beginning a New Sei ‘What Happemed to the Letter of the Mysterious Red-Bearded Man? As I saw that the soiled letter which the red-bearded man had mid was & message had disappeared from the top of the bookcase, 1 felt my pulses quicken with the | consclousness that there was some sort of a mystery concerning the| bizarre communication and the man who brought it, and that Miss Lin- coln’s desire to see the secret hollow in the gatepost had not been prompted by the idle curiosity which I almost had come to believe had actuated her. Almost—but not quite. I realized that from the first I subconsciously had sensed the terrified comprehen- sion of the “‘message” which had been so spectacularly brought to her and that when she sped back | to the house upon her pretended crrand, T had known that it waa to | retrieve the letter from its exposed | position, and to hide it securely— perhaps even upon her person — although she disdainfully had re- treated when the red-bearded man had extended the soiled envelope in his grimy hand, and arrogantly | had commanded him to lay it o the sundial and go.

But nothing happened to give him a real fright until presently they came to g cage a little apart from the others. At the first glimpse of the one in that cage Peter turned and started across the tent, lipper- ty-lipperty-lip. Of course Danny Meadow Mouse and his cousin, Cir- cus Mouse, thought Peter must have discovered some danger they didn't aee, and they raced after him. Peter didn’t stop until he was on the other side of the tent. “What is it?” squeaked Danny, as he came up, panting, quite out of breath. squeaked Circus Mouse, “what fs it?
