Love’s Awakening a Steadfast Womar By Adele Garrison Noel Gets » Losson in Woolag from Madge, But Still Feels that Mary Is Lost to Him Forever “Mary?" Noel Veritzen's volce was little more than & choked whisper as he put the question, and with a lively dread of what lh9ck the next few minutes might bring him. 1 smotherel my reluctance to tell him of the betrothal I had sanc- tioned but a few hours before. 1f Georges and Mary should come into the room. I did not believe the young and arrogant prince could resist the temptation to announce the engagement to Noel. His gloat- ing would not be boastful but real, and 1 told myself tiercely that I would not permit the sensitive boy facing me to undergo that ordeul without being prepared for it. Noel,” 1 said softly, but rapidly “that 1s Mary's voice and Prince Georges it with her. Listen to me!” I made the words emphatic. “There is something you must know before they come in, but you must not take it seriously. Mary found out yesterday — never mind how— that Princess Olina had asked you to marry her, and that you had con- sented. In a fit of pique—I am sure it nothing else — she promised to marry Prince Georges, and they are going to announce it at a little dinner soon. Don't look like that!" The color left his face and his eyes stared wildly at me. “Pull yourself together, boy 1 said. “They may come in here any sec- ond.” Unwilling Listeners 1 had been conggious as I spoke of a voice outside the window — that of Prince Georges—questioning Mary's reason for not wishing to enter the restaurant. And even as Noel—obeying my behest—gathered strength from somewhere to draw a mask of composure over his agitat- ed face, Mary's voice sounded again this time coaxingly. “Georges, dear, I know I'm an awful pest, but really can't we go somewhere else? I—I—don't like— this place. I—I—can't stand it to— dine here. “As you wish, of course, dearest.” ‘The young prince’s voice was that of a tender, adoring lover, though 1 was sure I caught a note of an. noyance in it. And then their foot. steps retreated down the veranda, and in another minute we heard a car drive away. It was not until then that Noel tound voice, and the mournful ca- tone, the suffering in ght at my throat de- spite my annoyance at his helpless hopelessness concerning Mary. “Did you hear her?” he asked Danny and Nanny Move Once More By Thornton W. Burgess, Safety first you'll find the rule That's always taught in Nature's school. —Old Mother Nature For such little people as Danny Meadow Mouse and Nanny Meadow Mouse, it would be a long, danger- ous journey to go from Farmer Brown's barnyard down onto the Green Meadows, particularly at this time of year. You see, there were no nice little tunnels leading from there through the snoy and that would be very dangerous. In fact, the chances of getting back to the Green Meadows would be very poor. “I suppose we can stay here un- der this haystack,” said Danny. “It won't do" repjjed Nanny. “You know what happened to the haystack down on the Gneen Mead- ows. Besides, there isn't the food here. T don’t want to stay here and 1 don’t intend to.” Danny felt much the same way. He poked his head out from under the hay. He looked this way and he looked that way and he looked the other way, Far over in the Green Forest he heard the voice of Hooty the Great Horned Owl. He knrw that Spooky the Screech Owl was in the barn. Black Pussy was nowhere in sight. Neither was Reddy Fox. Come on, Nanny!" he cried. Together they scampered across the snow-cover:d barnyard to the barn. Then Danny led the way along close to the underpinning of the barn. There the shudows lay blackest. He didn't go into the barn, but ran along as fast as he could outside., When they reached the the barn Danny darted across the chicken yard and through wire netting of that ya followed. Inside that quite safe. If Reddy ¥ happen along or if Black Pussy should happen along there woull he nothing to fear. Only one of the Owl family could cateh them there, They stopped to rest. “Where wl Nanny. end of Nannv rd they felt shou'd re we going?” demand- “To the 0l Orchard” replied Dunny “As long as Spooky the Screech Owl has left the Old Or- chard for the harn, we'll leave t} barn for the Old Orchard. Now, follow me.” Danny found a little hole under the henhouse. At the back of the henhouse he dug his way up to the surface once more. It was only a very short run over to the old stone wall, along the edge of the Old Or- chard. Danny darted across to the safety of the old stone wall. Then he sighed. It was a sigh of pure re- lief. “Well,” said he to Nanny, who had been right at his heels, “we are | safe enough now. Nobody can catcin us in the old stone wall.” “Nobody ?” said Nanny ingly. Nobody™ replied Danny dently, “Not even Shadow the Weasel?” inquired Nanny. 1 question- confi- 10, the U miserably. “She sald sho———" Proof of Love “‘Didn't liks the place and couldn’t stand it here.’” I repeated glibly as he stopped. “Yes, 1 heard her, and if you want proof of her caring for you instead of Prince Georges, you couldn’t have a better one.” . His eyes, big, bewildered, search- ed mine. “J—]1 don’t see,” he stammered. “You and she have been here to- gether, haven't you?" T persistd ruthlssly, feeling a bit like a vivi- sectionist. “And the memory of that visit is—a somewhat—tender one?" The red which dyed his face and neck was my answer, and 1 hur- ried on. Then don't you see why she can't ‘stand it' to dine here?" 1 persisted. “Memories ars swaying her, too, and she cannot bear to dine with another admirer in the same place.” ‘But that doesn't alter the fact that she's engaged to him,” he sald. “And it depends upon yourself absolutely whether she goes on be- ing engaged to him.,” I retorted. He straightened himself, startled. “What do you mean?” he asked.

The one thing for you to do is to assert yourself when that time comes and sweep her off her feet.” He stiffened involuntarily. never have cared for the posi- tion of second violin,” he said a bit frigidly. “My dear boy!” 1 said impatiently. “In Mary's orchestra you are not only the first violin but the ‘cello, the tromhone and the drum, enly she doesn’t quite realize it yet. Are you going to risk losing her and your happiness because of a bit of fool pride?” “No, oh! no,” he answered. “Tell me what you wish me to do.’ “For the present, nothing save play the devoted lover to Princes Olina,” I answered. “But—" he stammered. “T don't understand. 1 thought you said 1 must not marry her?” (Continued Monday) Copyright, 1929, Newspaper I'eature Service, | Together they scampered across the : snow-covered barnyard to the barn Danny shivered ever so little and looked all around hastily. “I—T forgot all about Shadow,” said he. “And Shadow, so I am told, is very fond of hunting on old stone walls” said Nanny. “We'll get right over into the OId !

YOUR HEALTH By DR.
