" NASTIER of NONEV n BY ROY VICKERS CHAPTER V. "I'll tell you what J did today. If you really want to hear. "I began, with riding that's an absolute necessity. Then I bad breakfast, changed, went to a gjm, changed and had a fencing lesion. Changed back again and went to my dressmaker, who is evolving my dreas for the Middle Ages ball. She's a bit ol a genius at fancy dress. So am I. Then I hurried back here to change again and we lunched with Bishop Far ley. - "Then I came back here and had the fun of seeing you. Then tonight there were the Westburys and you can tee I'm not a bit done up. Do yon think I could do all that on cocktails and cigar ette?" r "Good Lord!" exclaimed Alan. "You work as hard at this game of going round and meeting peo ple and being met as if you had to get another fifteen thousand a year out of it." "I may have to, one day," she aald, half to herself. He Ignored that. She was sit ting in an armchair opposite him, her head against dark velvet, and once again there flashed up that memory of her face outlined .against a background of darkness. He knew the memory was stam peding him let himself be stam peded. "Shirley . . . "he said hoarsely. She looked up, still halt held by some lonit thought. "What Is it, Alan?" "I think you know what it 13, Shirley." Startled color rose in her- face. She moved Jerkily, then sat still. "I think you know what I am trying to say, Shirley. Women girls girls of twenty, even are pretty good at telling what a man is thinking about without his put ting it into words. I did not tell you that day seven years ago at tlie Felton that I loved you but you knew it - "I did not tell you that all these years I've been thinking of you sitting there In the lobby of that miserable hotel, but I think you know it. I think you knew the mcment we met this afternoon that I Intended to ask you, as I'm asking you now, to marry me." "I didn't!" she cried. "I've al ways loved you in a way but not the marrying way. Oh, Alan, I'm o dreadfully sorry."

I WISH I WAS THAT DERN GOinJG! , THANK lVl0O HrJ VIHIPPLE Oregon, Friday Horning, December 13, 1929 - Ull IT IS Past Six Months Crowded With Attempts to Break Prison NEW YORK. Dec.- 12. (AP) Wednesday's mutiny -of convicts at Auburn prison is the fifth maj or outbreak which has occurred in penitentiaries in this country in the past six months. The out breaks have taken the lives 61 18 guards and prisoners, and caused prison property loss of more than a million dollars. Today's out break was the second at Auburn within the six months' period. Fifty long term convicts at tempted a wholesale delivery at Auburn one quiet Sunday last July when two thirds of the guard force was oft duty. Four of the prisoners were successful in their dash for freedom, but the others were driven back under heavy gun fire. ( For hours the mutinous crim inals created a reign of terror within the prison's walls, setting fire to buildings which resulted in $500,000 damage. Finally with the aid of state troopers and po lice, the guards forced the rioters to surrender. Two convicts were killed and eleven were wounded. George Small .one of the pris oners who escaped, was shot and killed recently by' a policeman when attempting to escape after a holdup in Brooklyn. A woman by stander was killed by the gun fire exchanged between Small and the patrolman. Another of those who escaped was caught in Buffalo. The July riot at Auburn oc curred only a week after an out break at another New York state penitentiary Clinton prison at Dannemore. Three convicts were killed in this mutiny when 1,500 desperate criminals rushed the guards. National guardsmen aided in quelling the disturbance. Con siderable damage to prison equip ment resulted.

Closely resembling the present Auburn outbreak was' the most serious of the other four riots, that at the Colorado state prison, at Canon City, on October 3. Seizing a number of guards, the Colorado prisoners held them as hostages and murdered them one by one when officials refused to grant their demands for freedom. Seven guards and five convicts were killed and the riot ended only when the leaders of the out break committed suicide after they saw their cause was hope lessly lost. A terrific battle had been carried on for more than 24 hours between the barricaded con victs and state troopers, guards and police. Several of the prison buildings were wrecked and the damage ran into hundreds of thousands of dollars. ifflNS III SENATE BROKEN WASHINGTON, Dec. 12 (AP) The break In democratic and republican Independent ranks on the wool schedule continued In the tariff controversy today and culminated in approval by the senate of Increases in duties on wool rags and shoddy that en ter Into the manufacture of mil lions ot pounds of cheap cloth ing annually.

A CERTAIN charming old ladT has solved beautifully tor herself the problem of whsr is a suitable sift for, the y emits housekeeper. Having spent moat cf her life in France, she Is a great ad mirer of French cookery. And French cookery, she explains, owes much f-i Ita far-famed flavor to the srenerous use of casserole and petite mannlt. Consequently, she- sees to it thxr , sooner, or later everyone in her ar qualnt&nce who keeps house Is th possessor of an ample set of cas seroles. Tears ago these were 1m ported from France Indeed, one can UU see some of these foreign earthenware dishes. But they art somewhat clumsy affairs eompareo to our native product. True, th French casseroles are generous at fair substantial, roomy and neavr nut the casseroles now made in America are even better. They an available not only in the old-fash toned terra xotta colors, but also in the pleamnter shades of green. Am the glass baking dishes which can b used in the same way are avea mon attractive.

Serving food ia th dish in which cooked has mad service easier, reduced dishwashing But In France where caaserota cookery originated, the cause for lu popularity lies ra the fact that it really improves cookery. Foot cooked slowly in an earthenwan pot develops a superior richness an flavor over food cooked any othei way. Also, casserole cookery make It possible to qse effectively the lea tender cuts of meat. As a rule, tlw tender cuts, although high in price have not much flavor. The flavor Is better in coarser portions, but to b edilble these require long, alow cook ins. And for this purpose the cats serole is ideal, since it performs th service, and also makes the dish served directly from oven to table highly appetizing;. flow extensive one's caiaocolo set shall be depends on the amount ot cooking and entertaining. Half I dozen casseroles, a half dozen cue tmxvl cupa. and perhaps several of th petite marmtte.
