Thoy began tho doscont, with the enstorn sky splitting Into streaks of snffrou. Ornhnmo led tho way, with Jnnlco following, and Greene bring up tho rear. Greene moved slowly, his flngora gripping nt tho rough stono stops with the norvous anxiety of n ninu unnccuslomod to holghu Thoy skirted tho rocky lodge about tho pit. Jnnlco gated at Its sullen depths with frank wonderment, whllo Mr. Ureeno. aftor one quick glnnco, averted his oyos and stum bled niter them with quickened pneo. Thoy reached Grahamo'a hiding pluco, breathless from tholr uasto. and paused. "I think." observed Gralmme.

They climbed over tha rubbish that had fallen between tbe portals, nnd found themselves within a large chamber. A portion of the roof had crumnted Inward, making' a center pile ot atono blocks. The sky through the roofs gap, was orango with dawn. Other parts of the room seemed weather-tight. Tho curious V nrched bracing, with out keystones, which was unique with an extinct race ot Maya build ers, w as apparently Intact and would stand for further centuries. Grahnmo divested himself of his coat, and produced his food supply, t'ach seemed conscious ot tho most vital business tn hand, first of all they must have food and resu Lalc they could discuss their circumstan ces, and tho orents that bad brought them together In this ominous situ ation. They consumed their meal In al ienee. Greene rolled his last bit of meat In a fragment ot tortilla and remarked that be could do with a glass of beer, a large one preferably, hut lacking that, a halt a gallon ot spring water would do. The other man looked at him sar donically. "When the Governor of North CaroMna made his classic remark to his 'Oliikal uelghbor," Frank ob served. "he surely had Yucatan In mind.

About Stamps By Elza Martin, Well Known Mump Authority Dr. Royal S. Copeland. United States Senator from New York state, recently wrote in an article. "Bear in mind that the child with a hobby carries throughout life a weapon against the Idle hours and misdirect ed energy Encourage hobbles I It Is not necessary to have expensive equipment or special training. A minimum of expense and equipment usually leads to the most enjoyable and successful experiences. - In order to help the beginners to make their collections properly, the following suggestions will be of "great value. The most Important point In making a collection attractive is neat, ness, a Bmall collection containing clean stamps carefully arranged Is far more Interesting and valuable than a larger collection carelessly made of dirty and torn stamps. The collector should provide himself with a suitable stamp album to mount his stamps in. A splendid album for the beginner Is a thoroughly illustrated album with a place for each stamp. The loose leaf blank album Is good and Is preferred by some collectors. Many a good stamp has been ruined by being torn from the paper it is on. A stump which has any paper on the back should be placed In some cold water until the paper can be easily removed, then dry the stamps face down on a newspaper and press in a magazine. Don't paste your stamps In your album, but mount them ! -TONIGHT- "BEF0RE MIDNIGHT" Ralph Bellamy -- June Collyer JT DJ N ID AT - MC N D AY LET'S MAKE .

The stamp hinge is a small transparent piece of paper gummed on on side only, this is folded with the gummed side out about one-third is pasted on 'the back and at the top of the stamp and the other two-thirds to the al bum, so that It will form a hinge. Moisten the hinges very lightly when pasting them to the stamps. Very old and rare stamps should not be removed from the envelopes; as many times their value Is far more when left on the original cover, and do not an experienced collector. A begin ner should collect stamps from as many foreign countries as possible and will, soon have a general collec tion. Later on he may specialize In the countries or subjects that are of Interest to him. such as ships, architecture, airmails or triangles.
