Bhe ta the teacher In ths nelahborhood school, of which Marvin Crelghton, Bu Troll' brother, Is superintendent Meely learns that Marvin waa to have married his cou.ln, a titled English lady, but, believing she was attracted by the Cretshton wealth, had refused ths alliance. It la the rumor that St. Crols Is to tska Marvin's place sad marry the Engll.h girl. St. Crols Jeal ousy Is aroused by Meelv'e report of an aged suitor for her hand. The girl cleverly decoys him Into admitting be baa no Intention ot marrying her. Marvin vl.tta school In bis official capacity aa superintendent and discovers how shockingly little Meely knows sbout school teaching. CHAPTER IV Continued 10 "No," she decided, "for be ta really fastidious and Nettle's a hopelessly common little thing. And yet. If he can stand me and the dope I hand out to him" She did not know, however, that St Croix, to hla own wonder, never felt that she waa "common" or vulgar; not even when ahe manifested ths In telligence of a sheep or twisted the English language until his nerves were rasped; not even when ahe aat sprtwllng ungracefully with her feet far apart, nor when, after tasting an apple, she drew the back of ber band across her month. She wag a good actress, but there was that something Inherent that noth ing could disguise e e e e e e e It was just when, relieved of Aunt Rosy'a espionage, Meely was begin ning to feel. In spite of the dangerous proximity of Marvin Crelghton, more at ber ease, less Insecure In her equiv ocal position, that, on that very eve ning when she sat In the warm, bright kitchen, peacefully v rltlng letters, she was to find the complexity and preca rlonsnesa of ber situation greatly In creased by the outcome of an episode which was, at that same boar. In Its Inclplency on a 8onbury street corner, eight miles distant Mr. Sam Schwenckton, bavtng fin ished the business whlcb had taken hlia to town, waa about to enter big car parked on the edge of je town, and start for borne, when a man stand ing on the corner, apparently waiting for a trolley car, approached him. "Pardon me bow often do these cars runr the men Inquired In a tone of extreme Irritation. "I've been wait ing here twenty minutes !" "It don't run no cars on this line after seven o'clock. MUter. This here trolley line ain't doln' much business anyhow, so It stops till seven a'ready. Too must be a stronger here ain't? or you'd o' knowed that" "No but I seldom use the trolley. Today, however, I had to leave my au tomobile at the repair shop. Are you. by any chance, driving. out this roadT "Tea, elgh mile out" "Will you, then, for a consideration, fct me go with yooT Now as the night waa raw and wet. It would, Mr. 8chwenrktoo felt be only a Christian act to offer this stranger a seat In bla car. Also, he liked company, some one to talk to on an elght-mlle drive. But the news papers were so full of holdup stories and he waa carrying a good deal of money wouldn't be be taking chances? The man looked so decent, however (what could be seen of him In the dim nest) and Mr. Schwenckton bod, aa always when he traveled at night brought his revolver with blra lie felt in bla pocket and surrep titiously moved bla pistol from bla right-hand pocket to bis left "I wouldn't want no alcb a 'consid eration,' Mister. Just so's yon ain't one of these here tbuga you can read about In the papers" The men laughed. Teu're twice my size. If I can trust you not to hold me up, I guess you're safe f "Tea, 1 guess that's go too. All right Come on, then." Mr. Schwenckton felt rather cheat ed when be fonnd that the stranger, though sociable and agreeable enough, waa not going to repay his hospitality by satisfying bis curiosity aa to who he was. All the leading questlona with whlcb the farmer plied him re ceived evasive answers. This seemed to Mr. Schwenckton so suspicious that he frequently felt In bis left-hand pocket to be ready In case of need. Ho'wevcr, ke tried to put his appre hensions aside and to beguile the ride with friendly talk. "So yonr car bad to go to the shop, hebr "Yea, worse luck I" "When I Jlrat got rcy car I drove her and drove kr till I got the cold By HELEN R. MARTIN In my cheat and It near give pueu nionla yet I Yea, anyhow I" The atrnnger made a sound expres sive of his sympathy. Kor a while they drove In alienee. "Funny thing happened In the bank today," Mr, Schwenckton resumod con verantlonally. "When I went In to get a check cashed" lie stopped short In consternation how tactless to mention having cashed a check I "What waa ltr asked his conipan ton. "Not much a dollar or so. I spent It" said Mr. Schwenckton pointedly. I mean whot was the fuuny thing that happened? "Oh. that I Well, a lady standln' alongside of me In the bank she hand ed In a check and the banker he anld to her, 'What denomination? and ahe aaya sort of snappy, 'Well,' she says. 'I'm a Presbyterian, but I don't see what business It Is of yourn,' ahe aaya," The laugh In which they Joined over thla yarn aeemed to establish between them more confidence. Mr. Schwenck ton, always warm-hearted, waa sorry he had been feeling so suspicious of a fellow man and tried to atone by being aa friendly as possible. "Waa yoa aver to New York, M la ter r "Yea." "That's a place I never seen. But my brother he wsa always act on seeln' this here New York oncet, that yon can read so much about In the papers. So at last hla missus she says to hlra, she says, 'Pop,' she ssys, you're gettln' on In life and If yoa don't go soon to this here New York, you'll be too old to go.' So, then, he said he'd go oncet Eo she helped him get ready and atart off. 'Now, mind you. write,' ahe says to hlra, 'and tell me how yoa like It.' So after a couple of days she got such a pitcher post card from him and he'd wrote on It 'Mom, YL yL yt. yl t Pop." Again their Joint laughter seemed to bring them sympathetically close. Since leaving the lighted town, the road had been very dark, for the night was cloudy and starless. 'Where do you want out stranger?" Mr. Schwenckton presently Inquired. As he spoke, he took hla band from the ateerlng wheel to have a glance at hla watch and aa he did so, the man beside him gave an oneasy atart With a shock of some horror, Mr. Bchwenckton's fingers found an empty pocket where hla watch should have been I Instantly ha atopped bis car and Jerked out hla revolver. "Now, then, yoa hand out that there watch and then yon run for your life!" be shouted. The man obeyed with alacrity. thrusting the watch Into the farmer's outstretched hand, leaping from the car and disappearing In the blackness of the road. Mr. Schwenckton, greatly shaken by so narrowly escaping being man bandied by a thug, bla soul besvy with sadness at the desperate wickedness of man, went on his solitary wsy. musing on his own folly In hsvlng let his kindness of heart get the bettor of his prudence. It ain't safe to take op strangers these days that it ain't I And me, I waa always too trusting that wayt Well, this here's Certainly a lesson lo met Be kind to your fellah-creatures, yes up to the danger point Tint's all the further a fellah durst be a Christian these days!" Ills despair over the perfidy of our human nature deepened as he reflect ed upon the "gentility" of the thief: his "nice" voice, his "educated" speech, his "polite manners" what with his "Beg pardon," "Thank yoo very much" "A alkk one, be wast I can't never trust no one's appearances again I" thought Mr. Schwenckton with a sor rowful shake of his bead. "That's the worst harm a crook does he spreads abroad a mistrust of man made In the Image of Gawd I" Fifteen minutes later Mr. Schwenck ton, usually the most placid of men, confronted big family In the kitchen. Z4XXX4X4X4X4XXXX4ZXXXXXXXXX4XXX4'XX Rule That Govern la answering a correspondent's query, "What relation are the chil dren of first cousins to each othert What relation to me la my first cou sin's child?" the Pathfinder Magazine says: Beckoning cousin relationships Is simple If yoo start oat right A cou sin Is one collaterally related by de scent from a common ancestor, but not a brother or alster.

Confusion sometimes arises from trs custom of some people who speak . WNUSerrlee looking so white and agitated that Meely and Nettle sprang up greatly startled, and even Susie looked at him Inquiringly, "I waa held up and robbed I" he announced. "Not two mile up the rood yetl" "Achl Waa yoa hurtr cried Net tle In a fright running to him. "No, I ain't hurt And I ain't lost nothln' neither I I held the crook up and got back what was stole off of met That's whnt I done!" "Ach. Pop I" Noltle gasped in min gled terror and admiration. "flood thing I took my rewolwer with I It ain't aafe, these rough times, to travel at night without a gun along I" He told them, then, aa he removed hla hat coat and gloves.

Yoa let It at home. Yoa forgot It There It lays." She thrust her thumb back ward toward a small shelf which held a convenient comb and brush for fam ily use. Her husband stared at her Incredu lously aa ahe calmly rocked ber sleep ing Infant then, desperately hoping to prove her words false, he fesrfully drew from his pocket the watch he de manded from the stranger, and alowly, reluctnntty, he let hla eyea fall upon It It was not hist Such a watch It was aa be could never hope, nor even wish, to own.

"I was sayln' to Nettle," said Susie, "that you'd be awful put out at goin' without your watch along." "And I never oncet missed it I" the wretched man murmured. "But why, my lands r faltered Nettle, "this here's got an awful look! like aa If you'd held that there man up and atole hla watch. Pop!" "And I don't know who It la to give It back!" Mr. Schwenrkton'a voice was agonized. "If I never find him. It'll make me feel awful conscientious to keep his watch I Yl. yt, yl!" he shook his head and began agitatedly to pace the length of the kitchen. "Oh, youll have no trouble finding him, Mr. Schwenckton," aald Meely encouragingly. "He'll of course report to the police and they'll easily trace yoa up." "Yes, and arrest ma for a thief yet !" exclaimed Mr. Schwenckton. "Ill tell yoa!" cried Meely. "Yoa report to the police, Mr. Schwenck ton, and tell them of your mlstske and that yoa want them to find the man. That will sues yoo." Mr. 8chwenckton stopped In his agi tated walking to and fro, and looked at Meely admiringly. "You're got the head on yoa, Meely I I didn't think that far myself. Education's a grand help to a body In thla here life) That's what I'll do thla self same mloutel" He went to the telephone, but found the line "busy." Delay may be fatal P said Meeley anxiously. "Yoa must report it before he does.
