ROBERT TERRY
1' ' WHAT IIAS GONE BKOUS
Eddie Resan lias been ptjsisuded t
Join a Riinsf of which the "Eig Guy"
is the leader. Bern Ice Veres3l "gang
girt." In love with iKddie, i but he
becomes distrusted and breaks away.
Boarding a freight trafn. he :gos to
: Virginia, where lie mf-ets 1 Marian
Thorn dike and Penflcld ParadSne. Pa-
: radine, member of an aristocratic
Southern family, dies and leaves Ed
die ail his possessions. Determined to
make the farm, which he has inher
ited, a paying projosltion, Eddie starts
to work, more to establish himself in
- Marian's gxwl graces than for profit
He realises the gulf which yawns be
tween thm, but is fired with hope.
CHAPTER XII
She smiled vaguely. "I think I
am Buffering more from humili
ation than anything else. It
seems so silly to fall off a horse.
I'm Jolted and bruised a bit, but
I am sure there's nothing wrong
with . me .worse than a blinding
headache.".
' An urge of sympathy moved
through Eddie. He was so inter.
ested in the girl that he had, hon
estly, forgotten her suggestion
, that he telephone her father.
"Maybe1 I can help you some,"
he 'said, his heart beating a little
lasteY. "There's a trick I picked
up from a guy that used to train
prize fighters. Sometimes it does
the work better than a headache
powder It's something like
massage." -
"If my head would only stop
hurting," she replied. "I think
I'd be all right."
He went behind her chair and
' his , own hands touched her fore
head, moved with steady, sooth
ing pressure over her temple and
back of her ears. At his first,
touch she seemed to relax.
"That is Tery restful," she said.
"Don't talk," he cautioned her.
After the passage , of minutes
she said, "I feel ever so much
better."
Tet she did not ask him to stop.
The touch of his hands was pleas
ant to her, and actually more
penetrating than mere tranquil
t ity. She allowed herself to slip in
to an unthinking repose, while
the warm magnetic strength of
his. fingers flowed through the
pain and began to drive it away.
Gradually, she grew used to the
almost sedative pressure; she
threw off a feeling of strangeness
and allowed the easement of .her
" ruf fering to be " replaced by 1 a
drowsy balm of comfort.
"You must be tired," she mur
mured, sleepily.
But he did not answer her, nor
had she expected an answer.
'Presently, when he stopped, her
eyes were closed. She was peace
ful and motionless. -He moved
away from her soft-footedly, and
'was careful lest he make disturb
ing sounds.
A new peculiar happiness ran
through him warmly. He had
fceen privileged to touch her and
the contaet had been vastly more
potent than any spoken utterance
that would have been possible;
the sensation of her smooth skin
. nnder his firm fingers had brought
them both; to some new frontier
of feeling, j
. When he had desired to give
.voice to his love, he had lacked
the effrontery. By daring words,
he would have shocked her and
driven her away from him. In
stinctively,! Ee had chosen the only
course that left his future with
her still open.
Above all, he was afraid he
might shock her and in his crud
ity tear down the fragile temple
he had built in his dreams. It he
had tried to tell her how he felt,
h'is words would have appealed
.only to her mind, and her mind.
" inevitably i would ' have rejected
him. He was a stranger, and not.

.Yes, despite everything she was
coming, under his sway. Subtly,
he had begun to reach her in the
old, primitive way neither di
vined the significance of the al
luring hind that was beginning
to take form.
The twilight In the room deep
ened and Marian, reposing com.
fortably in the worn upholstery
of the chair, did not stir. So far
as Eddie could tell, she had drift
ed into a light slumber and he re
strained, with a cat-like careful
ness, from making noise.
It was remarkable to him that
she had, apparently, fallen asleep
under the magnetic touch of his
hands? and he suspected that she
was only resting with her eyes
closed. If this were true, he was
immensely flattered that she could
feel so secure and at ease alone
with him in his darkened house.
But he was disturbed lest the sit
uation become so unconventional
that she would carry away an in
definite feeling of guilt, and so
be under a future feeling of re
straint. In his enamorate ; state he at.
trtbuted to her a fineness of feel
ing that amountedhad he been
correct to snobbishness.
Girls like Bernice Veressi he
understood without any mysteri
ous chivalry distorting his com
mon sense, but Marian Thorn
dike he conceived to be of infin
itely more delicate substance. She
was touched by a divine mist, and
if he made the slightest error she
would be lost to him forever.
That Eddie Regan was fired
with love for her and that he re- f
garded her with a heavenly re
spect was absolutely clear ; in
Marian's mind: for the moment
she did not bother to examine
her reactions toward him, but
she was piquantly interested to
behold his love manifestations.
With scarcely opened eyes she
watched him and knew precisely
his thoughts. He tip-toed In the
dining room and lit four candles.
so that they would not be in ut
ter darkness. He wanted to save
her from embarrassment and she
half smiled when his back was
turned, with kindliness at his un
sophisticated respect - for her.
- He returned to the room and
sat opposite her quietly; she knew
he thought her asleep, and she
could almost feel his eyes glow
ing with tenderness The Kgnt
was so poor that he could not
observe the narrow , opening of
her eyes and she rested in per
fect scrutiny while she measured
him, and found his masculinity
easy to gaze upon. Tnere were
appealing masculine contours In
his well-proportioned body; his
dark, virile hair was free from
the glossy pomades of other young
men; the bony Btructure of the
face underlying the sunburn was
solid and symmetrical. She rest
ed easily and thought that it
might be deliciously pleasant to
pursue all this a, bit further.
A halfconscious resolve form
ed in her mind to encourage him
a little. Thrilled slightly with
the consciousness of her power,
the heritage of her womanhood,
she recognized- an elfin, and Eve
like pleasure in seeing him so
helpless and enchanted.
.At the moment she opened her
eyes, Eddie had been in the midst
of a sweetly anguishing specula
tion as to the bliss that resided
on her lips awaiting their first
kiss.

ous moment of inexpressible joy
awaited him. She was probably
kissed by other young men, he-
realized he was not quite a fool
but It could have meant noth
ing to her. Probably, she had
kissed lightly, foolishly, but when
hi lips should meet hers for the
first time, the whole universe
would be bom anew for both of
them. It was ' a realization so
poignant that it became painful.
He found her wide awake and
looking at him. -
1'Did you' enjoy your nap?" he
asked, smiling with an ease which
he certainly did not feel.
"I haven't been, asleep at all,"
she said, honestly. "I've been
sitting here and thtnking how
pleasant It is in this house."
Again his troublous conscious
smote him. "I haven't phoned
your father," he said.
"I am glad you didn't." she in
formed him frankly. "He would
only have been worried and I am
quite sure, now, that I am per
fectly recovered."
"How's the headache?"
TMuch better." she told him.
"But it's not gone" entirely. I
think if you give another of your
wonderful treatments it would
leave and then you could take me
home." She smiled at him with
an : easy composure that was as
tonishing. He got to his feet; hands trem
bling as he crossed the room and
went around again behind her
chair.
"It's not comfortable for you

over," she said. "Sit on the arm

"Exactly!" said Knarf. "Every

"And what are those columns

Mij inquired., addressing Knarf.
Knarf hesitated. -
"They're called minarets.? said i
Hanid, smiling at Knarf. "There's
a winding staircase inside each
one of them. When it is time Apr
prayers the Moslem priest climbs
'up to the top and calls outj for
all Moslems to say their phiers.
As soon as they hear hinr. they
lay down their little prayer rugs
wherever they happen to be, and
then they face towards the -East

"Why do they face towards the
East?" Flor asked.
"Because the city of Mecca is
in the East. Mecca is where Mo

Mohammedans." .
Knarf looked at Hanid iwith
growing amazement. He . didn't
attempt to say anything at all.
He just listened.
"And how many times; a day
does he call from the top of the
minaret?" Yam asked.
"Five times. All good Moslems
pray five times a day."
Knarf was even more amazed
than before. At last he could
contain himself no longer.;
"Where do you find out all
these things?" he demanded.
Hanid smiled quietly. "I read
them," she said. "I read them in

Exotic Summer Sa!aI
So Easy
To Prepare
One of the best home cooks I
know has this maxim about sal
ads: "Make dressing of many ini
gredients, but the salad itself of
few." ; '
She uses i a great, many , acids
and spices for her innumerable
dressings, but her salads never
consist of more than three items
at most, and usually only two
one or two kinds of lettuce and
a single vegetable or a single
fruit.
And there's much to recom
mend . the rule. Complicated sal
ads consisting of half a dozen
foods are rather overwhelming in
hot weather. If salad is one course
of a meal it is most refreshing
when moderate in quantity and
variety. Yes, one does see , ex
travagant concoctions at some
ladies' luncheons salad courses
that are positive confections, con
taining everything from celery
and pineapple to cheese balls,
marshmallows, nuts ;and olives.
Too much. Even if salad is the
main dish, with a basis of chick
en or sea food, it need not be
banked by a ring of too many
assorted vegetables. The simpler
the salad in hot weather the cool
er it appears to the eye. ;
Of course, we all want "variety
without simplicity. The most ar
dent devotee of the bpst salad fh
the world crisp lettuce and ripe
tomato might find it tedious af
ter the eighteenth i consecutive
service. We enjoy it all the more
for having something; else in be
tween. There are all sorts of ex
otic salads which consist of only
one ingredient In addition to the
lettuce, and they provide plenty
of variety, but Impose little effort
on the cook.
Alligator pear is one food which
makes an ordinary salad quite
"Hm-m," the shadow-boy re
marked. Then he turned to go.
"Where are you going?" they
asked in surprise. ;
"Going ?" ho said. "Why.

a. very aencate . wavor in us
prime when slightly poft to tfie
touch and the green skin is turn
ing brpwn. One large alligator
pear will dres up a salad for
four, and it can be combined with
any of the lettuces. Cut in hali,
pare the thick skin, remove the
large pit. Then dice and chill. It
must always be served very cold.
Any French ; dressing will do, a ;
specially good one being made by j
adding to olive oil a teaspoon of J
lime juice in?! cad of viuegar or 1
lemon juice if you haven't the

If you live where alligator pars .
(or avocados, as they are some
times called) are cheap.. they can
be served by themselves as a sal
ad course. Cut in half and re
move pit, but don't pare. Place
on ice to chill. JuSt before serv

equal quantities of chili sauce
and. lemon juice, very cold. The
pear is eaten with a spoon, like

drop to the bottom and the cress
can be lifted out, crisp and clean.
Serve with French dressing, plain
or with a few slices of tomato.
All of the cooked vegetables .
can be made into delightful sal
ads, but they are all the better
for being served in limited lim
