Now she was alone, and she stood In the middle of the floor and looked about her. , , , ,, 1 y Tho room was large Rand' light. A big old-fashioned four-post bed with n maroon canopy and hangings stood against the loong wall, with the door on tho right. .To the left beyond the bed was a bullt-out win dow nearly as wide as the room, and opposite , the door another window, hung like the bed with dark red cur tains. 1 There was , a great deal of . dark red about .the room carpet, cur tains, bed-furniture, the upholstery of a Victorian couch, and the cover ing oX two deep armchairs set very formally one 00 either side of the hearth. The furniture 'dated from the forties square .solid mahogany Wjararobe, chests or drawers ana mirror. . The dressing table had a crimson petticoat with transparent muslin over it, and a looking-glass with a great many little drawers There was a very fat crimson pin cushion with a frill It. was, Nun thought with alarmed dismay, very completely a grand' parent's room, and very certainly not hers. She felt an abashed sense of being an Intruder as Bhe skirted the dressing-table to reach the large window. ; One's first instinct in a strange room is to see what lies beyond it. Nan looked but and saw a wet green lawn. The lilac bu&heB that edged it abstraction. - bent in. tba wind.

Leonard already has made two attempts upon Jervis' life, and Nan Weare, hlf .wtfe. Is distracted because she caijjiot persuade Jervis that Leon ard! means to harm him. The Weaijes ask Ferdinand Francis, old friend of Jervis, to Join them In. the country. Rosamund and Leonard follow.. . ... C Imp to" l A NEW WOKLf) Nan saw Weare for the first time under driving rain. They taxied from Croyston with the sky blue behind them and a heavy Indigo cloud com ing up out of the west., The road ran inland for a couple of miles and then!' turning, zigzagged up the side of a. bare hill covered .with., close sheep-cropped grass. As they came up the last rise, the wind met them and. .the rain first heavy splashing drops, ana men a solid shimmering fall...,. Then tall stone pillars, aand strain ing ..trees lashed ,by the wind until they brushed the car as it passed. At lost a grey house, and a portico under which they came to a stand still. . Jervis Jumped ..out, and she fol lowed f him. Her new suitcases emerged; her new trunk came down dripping. There was comfort in them, and Nan needed comfort bacV ly. filjo got none from Jervis., He hurraed her up tfce steps and through iHMitfbby into tho. hall with an air of Bioomy her arm. "Nap this is tyrs; Melllsh. She has, been housekeeper here for How long is it, Mrs. Mellish? Thirty years?" Mrs. Mellish, , rosy , and buxom room stood at tho comer of .the house.

"Thirty-one years and six months in September, sir.V JuBt. for ,a moment she Jooked at Nan, and there was no welcome in her look. Nan was a stranger. With the cold of it at her heart, she tilted her head and smiled prettily. Monk, the butler, considered that she. spilled very prettily, indeed. He was a fat man, . with small sunken eyes, sparse pale hair, and a voice so soft as to lend .his most casual remark the air of a confidence. "A very pleasant young lady." was his comment to Mrs. Mellish in the housekeeper's room later on. "A very pleasant young lady." ... Mrs. Mellish received the xemark in a bridling manner.. She .drew back her double chin till it rested upon the neat vUite friliing. Not until Monk had repeated his remark for a third time did she make crac ulnr response. "That is as may be,' she observed. When Nan was alone at last in the big room which had been Ambrose Weara's, she stood in the middle of It tjiid looked about her. with a mix ture of passionate interest, shy pride,- and a- tromulous something falling ground at first gross with some flower beds, then shrubs . ir regularly - planted, and finally a steep fall towards what looked Ne a javine. To the left a kind of bluff or knoll covered with trees hid the sea. Nan felt sure that it hid' the sea. She could hear the sound1 of waves against the cliff. She felt a great desire to go out Into the rWin and wind. Instead she washed her hands, looked at herself in the large mirror, and went down to tea. There was to be tea in the li brary. She came Into the hall and tried three doors before she found tho right one the dining room, full of enormous mahogany furniture; tho drawing-room, long unused and breathing faint ghostly camphor, lavender, and the smell of old cal endered chintzes; the third room, a small comfortable place with books, shabby old chairs,, and a writing table. . Sho found the library next to it? a pleasant rpom looking to the ra vine, and Jervis sitting in the win dow with the largest dog she had ever seen standing gravely beside him. He had a head like a lion, and ho wos llon-colored. He turned deen amber eves on Nan and came .padding to meet her.

Buckaroos Will Play Mac-Hi In Weekend Contest PENDLETON, Ore., Oct. 27 With only a few more days left before Pen dleton Journeys to Milton to engage the Pioneers of Mao-Hl, Coach Hincs is drilling his Buckaroo eleven until long after darkness has fallen over tho field. Some changes m the line up' which' started last Saturday are being contemplated, but tho only shift has been to put Nash In as a defensive guard, but keeping him as an offensive end. Little is known as to the strength of Mbc-HI's team, but figuring scores mado In their past games, they are at least two touchdowns better than tho Bucks. Mnc-Hl held La Crawls to a scoreless tie not long back, and won over Waltsburg by a slight mar gin. Waltsburg gave Kennewlck a Kood' trounclnit .a short time before the tiff with Mac-Hi.

"You're not afraid of dogs," said Jervis. Nan threw him an Indignant look, "No. What's his name?" "Bran. Tell him to shake hands with yout." Kan looked down Into the amber eyes. "Bran, shake . hands," she said, and was aware of Jervis watching her quizzically. She took her hand from Bran's head as she spoke and held , it out. Immediately the huge mouth opened; her hand was taken gently but firmly and shaken from side to side. She felt the pressure of the great teeth, but it was a pressure which would not have broken an egg-shell. Then her hand was drop ped and the velvet-soft muzzle moved across It with a caressing- touch. Jervis came over to them. "You are free of Bran's affections," ho said gravely. "He only shakes hands with people he likes very much." Just for an Instant Nan would have given everything she had 'in the world to know whether Rosa mund was one of the people with whom Bran shook, hands. The feel ing was so irrational and so strong that It brought the blood to her cheeks. She walked to the window, Jervis beside her. "Is the sea behind that bluff?" "Yes." "I thought It was I thought I could hear it." You might today, but as a rule you'd hear the fall. The stream comes down' that cleft and takes a magnificent dive Just through there." Ho pointed as he spoke. "The fall in one of our sights. It will be worth seeing tomorrow after this rain." Tho door opened, and Monk en tered, bearing pontificaily a large silver tray upon which. In ordered state, stood 'a massive and hideous tea-service. A toll pale youth fol lowed with a cake-stand. In a hushed tone Monk Issued orders. The tall youth, looking scared to death, set down the cake-stand with a clatter. It all looked so safe, Nan thought an she poured the tea. But was it? She saw the face of Leonard in the polished tea pot she saw it reflected in the rainwafthed wlndowpane. (Copyright, 1032, Llppincott) (To Be Continued) Health ClENIUS AND TUBERCULOSIS The German scientist. Dr. Erich EbBteln, has devoted much labor to the study of the relationship of dis easts, particularly tuberculosis, to genius. In a work entitled "Tuberculosis on Destiny," Dr. Ebsteln made 60 studies of various men of promi nence who have suffered from tuber culosis. ''' Ho finds that these men of genius who suffered from tuberculosis fall Into two large groups: those In whom the disease engendered a warm, sympathetic reaction to life, and those In whom there was en gendered an austere and gloomy attitude. It is interesting to note how many famous men have suffered from tuberculosis. Thus wa find Schiller, Goethe. Chopin, Rousseau, Keats, Goldsmith and Robert Louis Steven son listed omong the 50 reviewed. This study Is of interest in it self, but It also raises a question which Is of vital concern, namely, to what extent does disease In general affect the temperament and the at' titude toward life of the patient. The acute diseases, those which develop rapidly and which come to & quick issue, may affect the char acter of the patient xor a nnei period only. On tho other hand, a relatively chronic diM-ase like tuberculous, chrontc rheumatism, heart disease, or a defect of the senses such ACROSS 1. Table vessel sjiaped liko ship 4. Surly.

Again and again It Is plain that. they deliberately do that which Is certain to bring scolding, spanking some other unpleasant conse quence. Partly, of course this may bo ex-; plained as the drive of tho child's feelings of guilt, for some sccrot wrong-doing. Punishment Is neces sary to settle the scoro. A boy Who folt guilty because of reading what ho thought was a for bidden book began coming lato to meals, a .thing which ho knew was suro to be ponaltrted. Only after he was able to talk about the book and had learned that his mother In no way considered It wicked did he again come punclu ally to the table. But besides this courting of pun. ishment as a means of paying for secret misdeeds there was yet an other reason. It is a curious psychological fact that when we may not enjoy ono kind of satisfaction wo frequently find pleasure in Its direct opposite. Thus a child may want to hit his parents when they Intorforo with him. Tills, of course, Is not allowed and so he loams to enjoy being hit instead. Under certain circumstances his pleasure in being beaten or scolded may develop to such a morbid de gree that he seeks It again and again With cvcr-growlng satisfaction. Especially docs this tend to oc cur where the parent punishes In the boat of excltomcnt and in a dramatlo and highly emotional way. Punishment should never repre sent a high point In tho day. When It Is necessary It should bo accom plished 'In a very quiet and mattor- of-fact manner. (READ THE STORY, THEN COLOR THE PICTURE) r)PHE horse began to dip and dive and Duncy shouted, "Sokes alive! Wo surely have a funny horse. Why doesn't It fly straight? "This makes me dizzy as can be and does not appeal to me. Let's try and make It travel at a safer, snner gait." So Scouty yelled right out, "Hey, whoa! Where do you think we Want to go? If It Is all the same, we'd like to travel up, not down! "The Bky seems safe because It's clear, so kindly keep us all up here. If you dive down again, you may Uuu In some little town." THE horse don't fret. replied, "Oh, my, I haven't thrown you lads out yet. I thought you'd, like a thrilling ride. That's why I dashed around. "But you seem Beared, so I'll be slick and take a divo down very quick. Tho next thing thnt you'Tlnles know, you'll ho cafo on the ground." "Oh, no." cried Windy, "Don't do that. Gee, you nilclit nUu and land us flat. I fear you'll take a nose dive." But the horso dropped, just the same. When they were near tho ground they saw a sight that filled them all with awe. A farm er's big machine was stalled. Now, wasn't Dial a shame? ... "pLEASE land and we will help the man. At least we'll do all that we oan," said Coppy. Then, with one more dive, tho horse was'on the ground. The farmer shortly cried, "Hel lo! Please help me, lads. Givo mo a tow. At yonder farmliouso you can visit. That'B where 'I am bound." Said Scouty, "That's nil right with us, if our horso doesn't start a fuss." The horse then snapped, "Oh, hitch mo up! I'll gladly tow his car. "In fact, H will he tun for me. I am a real strong horse, you see, I hopo, however, that tho pull will not bo very far." (CpyrlKlit, 1932. N'RA Bcrvleo, Inc.) , NHADDVA TWINkl ) -f Lie?
