"You see, she doesn't realize what she has done," argued Eddy stoutly "Ellen," her father's voice was low and shocked, "do yon mean to tell me that you solicited money for a home for the bllud " Ginger Hushed crimson, and swiftly paled, but she did no! lllnch.

Ginger's feet were pounding down the stairs ngiiiu. ami ibey uwulted her coming In silence. She crossed the room and stood before the Inspector, slim and slight, hut with straight shoulders hh one will. tig to bear the burden of her wrongdoing, "Here I" Into the bunds ot the as lohishcd Inspector she pressed an old doll's trunk, mid It was heuvy. "It's the rent l (he dimes." she explulnod "I doti'i know where they enme from. I buriied the Hole white ui gels I menu (lie letters. And I spent lots of the dimes, too, for ever so many tilings, dresses, and stockings and even food Th?se are all itiut are left."

And, otlicer, If anybody bas to go to Jnll, dout you take him. You come and get uie," "Oh, nobody 'II have to po to Jail. We'll tlx this up. And you will prom ise to be a good IlltU girl" Ginger uotlded her head ne.vously. Her eyes glistened with tears that she held 'n check. In a short while they were all gone and she was alone again with Eddy. The house was very stilt. She stood to the center ot the room and stared 1 "Oh, Eddy Wasnt I Dumb?" blackly Into spate, stared and stared. Suddenly great storm welled In ber breast. The pain of It scorched her throat, tortured her eyes. She threw herself among the cushions In cor ner of the couch, and sobbed as though her heart would break. CHAPTER XIII A shamed and huddled heap, T1. ger lay In the corner of the big couch, weeping stormlly, ber slim shoulders shaken with ber s-bs, while Eddy stood awkwardly before ber, sadly watching. After a while, unnoticed, he sank down beside ber, and waited for the passion of ber emotion to spend Itself, and at last, unobtrusive ly, he put his arm about her, by gentle pressure drawing her from the shabby silken cushions to bis Shoulder. "Hunt cry. Ginger. It Isn't so bad. They'll fii It op all right, and do one will ever know. Your father will Just have to assure your good conduct In the future, thaCs alL Don't cry." Ginger was not to be comforted. Her beautiful dream was dead nay, bad been ruthlessly murdered, choked by coarse hands, crushed by heavy heel. All that she had hoped for, planned for, worked for, bad come to naught, "It was so beautiful," she sobbed, it was Just beuutlful while It lusted. And now It Is only ridiculous," "Oh, no, Ginger. Nothing can be ridiculous that Is done to love," he said wisely. She squirmed uncomfortably. "Oh, 1 did It In love." she admitted, "but I was pretty stuck on myself for doing It, Just the same. I was awfully hipped on myself I thought I was pretty smnrt all right" "Well, It wus smart In way," he said carefully. "Of course, It was wrong, 100 In a way. It really was false pretenses and using the mnlls to defraud, and all that. But you didn't know It was wrong." But Glower was not willing to bo lifted ever so little from the depths of her self-abasement. Old Custom of Telling A render In Ihe United States sends me a cutting from an American news puper telling how the late Dr. Charles James, chemist and mineralogist, owned 14 hives of bees, and how after tils death one swarm disappeared and was found buzzing about the flowers on his grave more than two miles away, I'eter Simple writes, In the Eon don Tost Apparently, we are told, the bees had not been Informed of his death In accordance with the ancient cus tom, which Is still religiously fill Ulled In country places. I am afraid I can not enlighten my correspondent, who pusses on to me Hie query of the Journal In ques tion: "Who first thought of telling the bees of the death of their mus ter?" As fur as history carries us back we have some record of the keeping WNU SarvUo "Well, I wasn't at all sura It was right," she confessed ruefully. "I al ways felt nshntned because the people said such kind things In their loiters, and I knew they were being fooled. But I told myself thut such a good man as father, and a minister and nil. had a right to be taken care of. And 1 tried to tell father about It, but ntw.iyt I didn't I told myself I wanted to surprise him Inter on but I think I knew he wouldn't tot me," "The trouble with you. Ginger, Is your mathematics,'' be suld very gently. She gazed at httn a moment In speechless wonder. "Math-" "Yea Tou know that a whole lis Is wrong but you figure that a half s lie Is no lie at alt I've er noticed that about you several times." Ginger smiled tremulously at that, and a fresh rain of tears swept ber face. "1 know it," ahe confessed ahjctly, "1 know It But It ts so much easier to got what you want that way" "Oh. Ginger 1" How Ginger wept I The past was a wreckage of delicate dreams, the present a wave of disillusionment, lha future swept bare by the relentless winds of certnla prlrat'ort, "Oh. Ed.ly, I can't stand It-I sim ply cnn'tl" Slowly, very gently, h turned her heal upon his shoulder, lifted her face to his. snd. for the first time, kissed the trembling, tear-wet lips Ginger's hand gripped his shoulder, lie held hr ch)e In his arms, moved his Hps gently across her wet cheek. pre8od them opon the dump curls that clustered at her temple. The slender little figure grew suddenly tense la bis arms, her hand clung to his shoulder. After a long still mo ment she drew away from him, slow ly. and looked at htm mistily, with troubled eyes, whose tears seamed lost In wonder. Eddy did not flinch be fore that wide-eyed questioning gaze. Firmly he patted away (he last of her tears, and then, almost defiantly, before ber very eyes, he leaned toward her, kissed her again. She did not protest When he released her, she lay limply In his arm, her face close to his face, and stared as one spellbound that old. familiar face, which seemed suddenly very new and strange beautiful to ber. "Like me. Ginger?" he asked gently. Ginger's answer was a startled Jerky bob of her bead. A half-smile quiv ered to her lips, to be quickly ban ished by the strange wide look of wonder. "Why?" he Insisted. "Because Tra like your futher?' Her band tightened Its grip on bis shoulder. Her cheek pressed his. "You you're not Just like my fa ther," she whispered. "Ginger, you darling you dear little darling" No word of protest from Ginger. His hands caressed ber. HI lips sought the carve of ber slender thrnut. "I know you hate to be pawed" "Oh. Eddy." she Interrupted Indig nantly, "you don't faw. You're not that kind." Her smnll hand found Itself opon his cheek, her slim fingers touched It, stroked It wltb a caresalvenesa as old as the world. "1 know I'm not at all a romantic Bgure " Ginger drew away from him. There was cold Indignation In ber eyes, scorn for herself, bet young girlish folly. She saw, as for the Oral time, the tender warmth of his gray eyes, the tine flrto lines of his kind lips, the strong assurance In (be polae of bis bend all the clean honest nice oess of the old familiar face. And ber heart cried out to liltn, remember ing bis thousunds sympathies through so many exigencies, bis unfailing hit mor, his untiring Interest And Gin ger, humbled afresh before this sweet new revelation of the old, old friend cried out reproachfully 5 "Ob, Eddy wtisn't I dumb?' ITHE END Bees of Owner's Death of bees, and the custom of telling the bees Is very likely almost as old as bee-keeping. It has all the ap pearance of a rite which originated In very early times, and the fact that It still survives Is a touching proof thul we est III cling, In some things at least, to the wisdom or folly of our ancestors.

Finds Youth's Fountain! 2TUST one thing has contributed J more than anything eUe in my life toward making me the radiantly happy woman I am today," writes Mrs. Walter Ruehl, of Glenbrook, Conn. "If this was soiling at ten dollars a bottle Instead ot the few rents it coats, I would scrape the money together, and I don't mean maybe!" "I guess a good many others fool the same way, judging by the num ber of people I know who swear by this 'Fountain of Youth.' Millions of people all over the world have discovered this simple secret, which Is nothing but giving our bodies the internal lubrication that they need, as much as any ma chine. After you have taken Nujol for few days, and have proved to yourself how it brightens your whole life, you will wonder how so simple a treatment can make such a great change in your health and your happiness. The reason is this: Regularly as clock work, Nujol clears out of our bodies those poi sons (we all have them) which alow us up, make us headachy, low in our minds.
