Dr. Jonathan Farwell, and there Is much speculation among the communicants as to what sort of man he will be. Cassius Brady, treasurer of the church, had rec ommended Dr. Farwell for the post after hearing his baccalaureate sermon at the graduation of Dale Farwell. his son. who Is a geologist Brady's daughter Lenora Interests Dale, who lives alone with his father Dr Farwell meets the members el his congregation personally, accepts their tributes, but refuses to be im pressed by the banker's family, the Mar- blestones. whose daughter Evelyn obvi ously sets her cap for Dale Meanwhile the women of the town arc curious about the mystery of the Farw ell's womanless housekeeping In the privacy of his room Dale has enshrined a picture of a beautiful woman.

He tells her he has only one friend in Locust Hill, and she Is Lee Brady. Constable Kerney Is perturbed by the arrival on the train of a suspi cious-looking little man and shadows him He Is further mystified when the stranger goes to the parsonage There the newcomer is warmly greeted as •'Pin k" Mulgrew and takes up his duties as housekeeper, adding to the town's speculation. Dale calls on the Bradys. Evelyn Msrblestonc gives a party in honor of Dale and Is obviously annoyed at his marked attentions to Lee Later. Dale takes Lee for a drive around his torical spots tn which he has a student s Interest, and he confides in her his ideal of Elaine, his mother, who died when he was barely more than a baby and who is still deeply mourned by his father. L ee is sympathetic Dr. Farwell Invites the Marblestones to his first formal din ner. Dale has already accepted an In vitation to attend a birthday party In honor of Lee. but his father sternly in sists that he stay at home and help en tertain the Marblestones. Lee. although understanding, is hurt, and Dale spends a miserable evening. CH APTER V I—Continued Without another word Farwell seated himself at the instrument and ran a few contemplative chords. Then he commenced a selection, a classical theme whose notes filled the room under the firm touch of the long white fingers. At its con clusion, Farwell's hands dropped from the keys to his lap. “ It was wonderful . . . " Evelyn breathed. “ I adore Liszt.” It was almost eleven when Mar- blestone peered from the front win dow and announced that the car was waiting. Dale's only conversation with Evelyn came when he assisted her into her coat ‘ ‘Was it such a hardship?" she inquired in a voice too low for the others to hear. ‘‘I don’t know what you mean.” “ Nothing, really. I wasn’t quite sure you were here this evening.” Evelyn stood with her back to him, fingering the fastenings of her coat “ But of course I was! So glad you could come.” “ I wonder . . .” Before Dale could formulate any plan of action following the depar ture of the Marblestones. his father called him into the parlor. Farwell stood beside the piano. “ Did you have a pleasant eve ning?” “ Yes, Father.” "Hereafter, if you can avoid it, please do not make it necessary for me to use the piano. I should not have to remind you of my reasons, I think. Good-night Dale.” Dale waited where he was until he heard his father moving about overhead. Then he walked into the hall, slipped into his overcoat and let himself out the front door. His mind was filled with misgiv ings as he neared his destination. A fool’ s errand, like as not If he could have a few words with Lee alone. What would her guests think if he came barging in at this late hour? Perhaps they would have gone. No. The house was still brightly light ed on the lower floor. Dale approached uncertainly. There was but one car parked in the street He scanned it closely as be passed. He walked on rapidly. There was a familiar look about that machine. Pliny getting the break. CH APTER VII "Lee, darling; I wasn't sure you’d be up yet, but I did want to see you for a minute.” ‘ ‘Of course I’m up.” Lee laughed as she ushered Evelyn Marblestone into the Bradys’ living room. “ It’s almost noon. You’ d better get out of that leather coat It’s rather warm here.” “ Well. Just for a second. You don't know how sorry 1 was not to be able to come to your dinner last night You see, I was invited out for dinner with father and mother. And I must tell you where we went. We dined at Doctor Farw ell’ s. Im ag ine.” •’R eally?” •‘Nothing different You know I was almost devoured with curiosity . . . To see what it would be like. You must have seen that weird creature that runs the house for Dale and his father." •‘Mr. Mulgrew? I ’ ve m et him. He is funny . . . And nice.” “ Maybe. He isn't so easy to look a t though.

When you get Dale by himself he loosens up and talks. But when his father's around, he's altogether different He acts almost as if he were afraid. I don’t blame him much. Doctor Far- well is perfectly adorable. But there is something sort of grand and gloomy about him. Dale's all righ t anyway. He can’ t help his father. Did you know he was going away very soon?” “ You mean Dale?” “ Yes. He was telling father some thing of the sort after dinner. Said •T m Miss Brown." that lady of fered primly, equally desirous of getting oft to a fresh start. "Sorry to bother you. But I brought a pan of doughnuts over to Doctor Far- well quite some time ago. That was before you came. Of course I left the pan. I was wondering if I might have it back. If it isn’t too much trouble. It's about so big.” Abbie’s gloved hands described an indefinite arc. "That's a hard one. Miss.” Pink answered. " I 'm afraid I wouldn't know i t Lotta junk must have come with this house. You see. there's nobody home except m e." "N e v e r mind. then. It Just hap pened that my mother — we live alone since my brother married— she wanted to use the pan for some thing. But some other time will do exactly as w ell." Her distress was so evident that Pink's gallantry was stirred. "N ot s bad lookin' little jane at all,’* he decided mentally. Then aloud: "Chances are it's kickin' around here. Would you care to an kle back to the kitchen and see if you can pick it out?” The first woman of the congrega tion to reach this coveted goal.

With you to manage things. 1 suppose you knew Mrs Farwell . . .” "N ever saw her." Pink’s tone sug- gested that another topic would be rather more in order. "And It must be nice for you here. too," said Miss bbie Brown to Pink Mulgrew "W e 're all so fond of Doc tor Farwell. Even in the short time he's been here And Dale is nice, too. So talented.” Miss Brown hid struck the right approach. "Dale'* You've said a mouthful. Miss. I done my best to make somethin' of that kid. H e'll be a champ some day, if he behaves himself." " I'm sure he will. And Doctor Farwell is so forceful Always fight ing e v il!” "Y o u ain't seen nothin'. If you'd ever have seen him when he was scoutin' for the Heinies.

Father thinks it’ s a pity he isn’t going into a business where he can make money. Thinks he has so much personality and all that sort of thing. I wouldn’ t wonder if he'd do something for Dale, if he'd stay here in Locust Hill.” “ That would be nice.” “ I don’t blame him much for wanting to get away from here. But I will miss him. Dale promised me he would take up contract if I would give him some lessons. And I must g o !” “ Don’ t hurry away.” "Sorry. I'v e heaps of things to do.

She paused. Dale Farwell was plainly visible at bis end of the table. On his right sat a woman who looked amazing ly like Sarah Marblestone. And there were Henry—and Evelynl Well! Miss Brown still was revolving the unusual event in her mind early the next afternoon when an errand took her past Old White. Less than a block from the par sonage, she saw Doctor Farwell stride out from the house to his car. Dale was at the wheel. They were going somewhere, then. Abbie slackened her pace and waited un til the machine started away from the curb, gathering speed as it moved along Market street. She lifted her small chin in a deter mined fashion and walked swiftly and unhesitatingly up to the Far- well front door. Pink, jacket unbuttoned in his haste, answered the bell. “ Good afternoon,’’ Miss Brown smiled sweetly. " I Just dropped in as I was going by to ask you about my pan.” "What ails it?” Mulgrew was startled into inquiring, before he re alized the attractive little visitor might not be employing his own fa m iliar vernacular. "B eg pardon.” he amended hastily. And waited. Evelyn breathed. “ I adore Liszt.’ menced a swift and happy inspec tion. She still was engrossed with her discoveries when the housekeep er emerged, ail too soon, from h:s pantry. " I got an idea it’ s one of these.” He exhibited two pans for considera tion. "Y e s . That's ours. The larger one. Would you mirqi telling me what your real name is?” “ Pinckney Mulgrew. My friends call me Pink. Handy.” " I ’ ve been wondering ever since I heard it. So unusual. I was just going to say, Mr. Pink, that this is the very first time in my life I was in a man’ s kitchen. It’s really beau tifu l You have everything so clean and orderly. I hear you’re a won derful cook.” “ Yeah? Guess somebody's been tryin' to rib you.” Nevertheless, Mr. Mulgrew was gratified and showed it. “ But I have!” Abbie nodded v ig orously. “ It’s so nice for Doctor Farwell and Dale to have someone as capable as you are. I know they Why. I never heard that!” "Th at’s how I come to meet him in the first place.” "Oh. I wish you'd tell m e !” "W e was buddies out there. That's all." A far-away look crept into the gray eyer. "W e Joined up in the same outfit Maybe we didn't get in the thick of it, too! It was a queer thing about the dom inie," he continued musingly, almost as if had forgotten there was an auditor drinking in every word. "Nothin' ever seemed to touch him and yet he was always goin' where things was the worst. You see that?" Pink's fingers caressed his scarred cheek. " I t must have been a dreadful wound.” the little woman remarked with a shudder. "Touch and a go, you might say. Shell fragment done that. And that wasn't all.

T ry uRab-My-TUia” - a W oaderfal U olw eat The magnificent American elk once ranged pretty well all over that part of the continent now occu pied by the United States. The early settlers quickly exterminated it in its original range east of the Mis sissippi, and toward the close of the Nineteenth century it was being rapidly driven to its last in the western states. The elk isn’ t very hard to hunt. Its hide was a com mercially valuable leather commod ity, its head makes an attractive trophy, and at one time there was a heavy traffic in elks' teeth, and many a noble specimen was killed m erely for its teeth, writes Ding Darling in the Washington Star. The slaughter of elk in wholesale quantities was easy when the snow was deep, because they stick in compact herds, a habit that exposed the buffalo to virtual extermination. There were elk in New England in the early days, and they survived in Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, In diana, Ohio and Pennsylvania until the settlers wiped them out. In the present range of the elk winter feed is the great problem. The protected valley lands have been appropriated for domestic herds, which monopolize the old nat ural winter feeding grounds of the elk. Here and there, notably in the Jackson Hole country, the nu cleus of the Yellowstone elk herd 1« cared for through the winter months by artificial feeding and pasturage on the elk refuge maintained by the United States biological survey and the state of Wyoming in co-opcra- tion. These provisions plus those of the National Park service will insure the elk against extinction, but they are entirely inadequate to increase the existing population. The elk is one of the outstanding victims of civilization. A hundred million in what naturalists figure the elk population to have been in this country when the white man began to take charge.
