She was evidently expected, for the bed was made, and the window was wide open. She went to the window and leaned out, sniffing the fresh air. A red rose hung close to the Bill, and she carefully picked it and placed it In a tumbler of water on the dressing table. It made her think of Nicholas Boyd and of her roses he had thrown into the sea. Where was he now? she wondered. "Ships that pass in the night," Nelly had said well some ships meet again even if it was years a mm 1 THE REWARD NOTICE By Mary Graham Bonner "First of all," said WUIy Nilly, "I will put some grease on the bite that Woodchuck gave you. Leave -him alone and he's all right, but don't bother about him a erain." Alt Willy Nilly's animal friends were gathered once more in front of his Re pair Shop to hold meeting. They TiBwcre getting no where. "We Khrmld 'nhnvft rinnn this (iHbefore," said Willy Nilly, as "he made Rip rest on an old cushion, "but It may help us more than anything. I have of fered a reward and pasted the no tices on the trees around here." All the animals looked at one of the notices in front of the shop which read: "Anyone giving infor mation leading to the discovery of the theif who stole my silver will be ivcn a handsome reward. Signed . N." "The silver wasn't so valuable," Willy Nilly said, "but I have owned It for years and think so much of ft. More than that, though, Is the $ict the we simply must let thcives jniow that they have to move away from Puddle Muddle." They all went off once more on' searching parties, looking for clues. When they met at Willy Nilly's that evening they discovered that something had been written below the reward offer, which was pasted on the bush right in front of the shop. It was in Crow language and had been printed with a twig dip- Willy Nilly read it aloud for nil to understand: "'What is life without ,a Luucn oi mutcmcir ueiow uic bush was the missing sliver. They wondered If Christopher Co- Only Willy Nilly understood the mysterious mesage. Tomorrow "The Villain" afterwards,- and many, many miles away. Georgie was glad that the rain which had greeted her at South hampton had .cleared off and left sunshine, and at the same time she found herself wondering how she had managed to pass her. days be fore she went, away. They had never dragged. She had always found something to do, and somewhere to go, even if it was only down to the Boar's Head to talk to Mrs. Spears and Trouve. The vicar had once told her in his mildly dis approving, manner that young ladies ought not to go to the Boar's .Head and talk to , Mrs. Spears. "Whom-can I talk to then?" Geor gie had asked; in her direct fashion. He had looked a little nonplussed, knowing that owing to her uncle's fondness . for whiskey, she . was rather ostracized by the so-called well-connected families round about It wasn't even as if Uncle Ed ward got respectably drunk; he did it in all sons of places, and In all sorts of company. Mrs. Spears was a great friend of his, and he had even been known to drink beer with Mr. Scarlet. Georgie had thought it all rather funny before she went away; some thing in her liked to shock the re spectability of the neighborhood, but today she was seeing things from a different perspective. Uncle Edward was very much oi a revolutionary. He hated conventionality and said that people were only respectable because they hadn't got the "guts" to be anything else. "Guts" was a favorite word of his. Outside, the iron gate slammed, then the front door slammed, then there was the sound of a heavy walking stick being put into the rack in the wall and then her uncle's voice, loud and threatening as usual. "Damn It all, can't anyone move these boxes? Do you want me to break my neck?" Georgie flew downstairs, her eyes shining. "Here I am," she said. Edward Bancroft stood in the hall; a big man with a body that must once have been fine and up right, but which had now grown a little fat and coarse; a red face which must once have been hand some, and rough grey hair that looked as if It had not seen a brush for years. "Do you want me to break my neck?" he demanded again. "The hall isn't the place for boxes. Have "em moved." He went on into his study, and Georgie followed. "It's been lovely" she said, her enthusiasm as yet undamped. "Whats been lovely?" he de manded .making at once for the whiskey bottle. "Everything," Georgie said. "New York, the boat, everything." "New York's a hell upon earth," was his uncompromising answer. "How's your mother looking?" Beautiful." Edward Bancroft said "Bah!" and It was more expressive than if he had used a string of words. Georgie realized that it would be wiser not to press the subject fur ther, and to change the conversa tion she asked after her uncle's cronies. "How's is everybody? It seems ages since I went away." "Everything's just the same, ex cept that Mrs. Spears." Edward Bancroft drank half a tumbler of whiskey and set the glass down with a bang. "Mrs. spears has gone out of her mind, I should think. Taken a lodgera damned play-actor fel low; all American hat and cheap swank." "American hat!" Georgie breathed quickly. "American hat," her uncle said ACROSS I.emrthy Tor 111 ' Solution of Yesterday's Puzzle H. VVIckmt Iti. Nolttn?n 10. litHKelllUlC liu.-k.-y 17. Plvishm lit. Afnsh 20.

"Got a great scar all down one side," her uncle said grimly. "Mrs Spears calls him a hero. Damned fine hero, I should sayl Got it in a drunken brawl if the truth's known fighting over some woman as rotten as himself." Georgie came a step nearer, her eyes were like stars. "What's bis name?" she asked. "What's his name, Uncle Edward?" He looked at her and scowled, "What do you want to know for? I expect his names Smith or Jones, or something but he colls him self Boyd Nicholas Boyd! . . Ought to be locked up for taking a good old name like that." He made a second attack on the whiskey. "If Mrs. Spears takes my advice she'll get rid of him," he went on. "Kick him out, American hat and all be fore he runs up a bill he can't pay. I know his sort 'Quiet' indeed! Where are you going?" he de manded, as Georgie turned to the door. She looked back at him. "I'm go ing to' get some tea. What you just said reminded me that I hadn't had any." But though she went Into the kitchen ,she only stood and scared at the kettle, her lips smiling, her eyes dancing. Ships that pass in the night! Well, this one hadn't passed it had come surely and swltfly, straight into harbor.
