stood against the loong wall, with
the door on tho right. .To the left
beyond the bed was a bullt-out win

opposite , the door another window,
hung like the bed with dark red cur

There was , a great deal of . dark
red about .the room carpet, cur

of a Victorian couch, and the cover

dismay, very completely a grand'

not hers. She felt an abashed sense
of being an Intruder as Bhe skirted
the dressing-table to reach the large
window.

room is to see what lies beyond it.

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

Then tall stone pillars, aand strain

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

hurraed her up tfce steps and through

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.

sea. She could hear the sound1 of
waves against the cliff. She felt a
great desire to go out Into the rWin

hands, looked at herself in the large
mirror, and went down to tea.
There was to be tea in the li

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

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

a hand. He slid his head under It
and sniffed her skirt.
"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.

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

PI.RASIIHB IN PUMHIIMBNT
By Alice Judson Peale
Parents Itrcquehtly OfbBerve thrft
their children court punlBhment.
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.

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."
