A BLAIR STEVENSON
: CHAPTER XXv f
Two of the grooms at the dob,
heated on lite- edge of tha low
board fence which surrounds the
tolo field at Meadowbrook. were
(watching the van dribbling the
ball down the field while his pony
tore beside it at a gallop.
"And on a green pony, too
tried one ol the grooms, jumping
to his feet in excitement. "It ain't
human. Arry. You've got tovdoff
four 'at to Stefano. Ef the
greatest player in the world." The
other groom demurred.
" 'Appy Jack could 'old him If
be were 'ere 'ad Just a paper thia
edge en 'lm. Net that the Span
iard aln t top 'oie. cut two poio
players like Jaek Van Slalck can't
be born..
Tome out on the field to do some
npMn tntrifate and imoortant
thinking. And that beeanae the J
thinking was as Important as bo
deemed it to be he was doing it Is '
Spanish.
Stefano always thought most tc
eurately and successfully on horse
back and with a polo mallet in his
band. And as his changes of pon
ies galloped and turned sharply
Sunder him he was thinking abut
Nathalie whether he ought to
follow his heart and gather her to
It: or his head and "go wide" till
be learned more accurately her
worldly situation and the extent
of 'the money which she was to
receive in some mysterious way
efter Ferris had caught up with
ber.
He was fairly certain, from gos
sip among polo and hunting men
end in society generally, that ber
free spending father had been
pretty close to the end of his
money tether when he died,, and
could not have left Nathalie a
very substantial inheritance. Had
she any other expectations? He
knew nothing in that direction,
but was resolred to learn if he
could at Mrs. Pembcrton Swayne's
.where he was to dine that night
before motoring over to The Firs.
Mrs. Swayne, having reinstated
him In her plans for Sylvia's fu
ture" comfort and security, had
pressed him to come Just before
she left The Firs that morning at
the finish of the masked party.
And at the peak of his problem
as the difficulty that the two
days, at the end of which Nathalie
had indicated that she would be
ready to listen to him as a lover
and remove her mask, would be up
that night when he Joined her at
The Firs. What if The Firs, shab
by and down at heel add in legal
difficulties, was all she had? He
thought of the tryst they had
with a little shiver.
"Wouldn't be fair to her. what?
he said aloud, and In English, so
as to cheat his conscience a shade
the better. "If It should come out
that we were both paupers, then
.what? Deuced awkward for both
aides. Better go wide f fancy for
another day till I learn what's
T-hat." Between 8 and" 9 o'clock
lie drove to Fllntstone and the din
ner party that was expecting him
there.
"And yet," he thought again, as
he entered the gates, "from what
that bounder Ferris intimates, she
must have money due from some
Quarter. But I shan't be precipitate
till, I'm looked harder into it.
.Wonder how I'll set about that
part?" j
Sylvia got him to herself within
a few minutes after he had en
tered the house.
"Stef, you're a frightfully good
egg." she confided, as she' leaned
back beside him on a sofa, "get
ting me out to the car and out of
the grounds when. you found I was
3 tight as & brick. Did' I spill
anything?"
"Dear no
"Did dumb old Monty?
"Not a thing."
another vehicle was at the-, door i
before him. It was a motor truck
well loaded and covered with tar
paulin. A young mam In evening
clothes Jumped down from beside
the driver. It was "Monty Delaine.
Be was In that state which
made him take off hie bat and
toss It Into a tree. "Bring forth
your myrmidons minion s. Etef,
and have 'em unload what's on my
wagon. Champagne old ber.
Oceans of it. I put through the
fdeal of a lifetime today and to
night rom don't pull cork."
(To be continued tomorrow)
Stefan, Holding HU Pony Right on the Ball, CaUopod Along
It, Across it and Over if.
"Dear old fltef how you love
to lie. I can tell from your eyes
he did and you're being sporting.
Bat you'll protect me, won't you?
I'd be destroyed if it got out. And
you should bo happy, too. about
it, for now you won't have to do
it. We never wanted to, you and
X did we?"
"Assuredly not, but I say look
here how're you to manage you
two? Nice old Monty .without a
sixpence."
8ylvia laughed delightedly.
"He has something Just as good.
He has a headpiece. Monty's not
dumb a bit. He has hold of some
thing very good. But that's a se
cret and I'm not to breathe it"
Mrs. Swayne came over full of
graciousncss:
"Of course I shouldn't interrupt
your confidences" here Sylvia
pinched Stefano "but you hav
en't forgotten the particular re
quest I left with you last night.
Iiave you Captain Stefano, about
poor, dear Nathalie. I have been
thinking about her incessantly
since we spoke ot her last night,
and It has occurred to me as al
most certain that she will visit
"The Firs" some night; probably
when you give another masked
party."
Sylvia pinched Stefano again
and he had to struggle to keep his
mirtn down. In light of the fact
that to all intents and purposes
not he but Mrs. Swayne had given
the masked party.
"She is so devoted to dancing,"
went on Mrs. Swayne. "and it
would be so like her for she Is just
a little bizarre. And there is the
other reason that The Firs belongs
to her and her cariosity will be
aroused about it now that you
have made it the most popular
rendezvous in society. So be sure
to watch for her for I want to see
her very much."
-After she had gone away Sylvia
too begged him to discover Na
thalie's hiding place It he could.
"I'm horribly worried about
her," she said, "she resented some
thing mother did and she was
absolutely right about it at
Southampton and went away over
night. If you see her tell me for
I want to help her. It's frightfully
important Stef that some one
should find her for I'm convinced
.she is absolutely without money
and I can't Imagine how 6he's liv
ing."
"I heard something recently,'
replied Stefano, "about money
due her from source. Know any-
Good Circulation Is the
Secret of Perfect Health

Fsrmer CowimUHoner Health, Veto Torfc City.
OT long ago I told yen about the arrangement of the air cells.
They are made to thin that Che oxyren of the lungs passes
right through this into the blood.
This oxygen, without which we could-sot live, would do little for
as if there was no. way ef carrying it to every
part of the body. Perhaps Nature might have
planned the human system, so that the tiny divi
sion ef tics bronchial tubes might have permeated
each of its parts. But a better plan was formulated.
The food we take at each meal would do as
thing about It?"
Sylvia shook her head; "I'd
love to believe It is true but it
can't be possible. I'm certain it
can't for I asked mother specially.
and she said that Nathalie had
nothing but The Firs and that it
isn't worth saving from some law
suit that has been brought agains
it. No, I m sure poor Nathalie had
absolutely nothing. Mother would
know."
Stefano left for The First Just
before 12. Reaching there on the
stroke of the hour he found that

Use Care In Selecting Draperies
f BVIIK great temptation m rsfur-
I aishtng these days Is to ge to
extremes. Modernistic devotees
there are who are ah for the plain
solid effects. Something like the gay
nineties, only more so. Plain woods
of stiff lines, solid colors for dra

there are fascinating brilliant pat
terns to choose 'rom. And also a
hazard of running to extremes. One
charm Ins woman who gloated over
the illirr 1 of ber dignified old living-room
as Chough It were some op
pressive Inhibition, amazed all be
holders by the lengths to which she
want in redecorating. Having set
her mind firmly gainst aU olid
color fabrics, she found it impossible
to resist each lovely new pattern
that came beforeer eyes. The re
sult 4s a houseful of patterns that
positively make ens - dtxzy. Each
piece ts beautiful in Itself. No doubt
about that. But the grand total of
Hewers and strips and cublstlo lines
and angles Is rather appalling.
The sew patterns are beautiful.
The chlntaea and cretonnes are jolly
and colorful, and some of them are
fla and ezpensrvs enough for a
most elegant living-room. Others
are appropriate for period rooms and
there are charming hand-blocked
linens and e.uaint calicoes that are
attractive enough to begin with
and bufld a room around the dra
peries. Nevertheless, if more than one
kind ef drapery is to be chosen
either for curtains, covers or cush
ion, it's essential to have some def
inite color scheme in mind. It may
toosaibla
be anite
to ha.v two kinds
of patterns la the same room, eitaei
for chair upholstery, or slip covers,
or for curtains, and yet have the9
harmonise. What one has te watch
out for ta choosing is color to avoid
clashes. If exact tints are repeated

Man. Demons have a color
which naturally guides them to the
