I found, then, that the storm had

for I had loHt track of time.. Tha
silence was moro devastating to
my tortured nerves than the uproar
which had preceded It. I wanted
to weep, tu laugh, to scream, to
dash my head against the floor.

The room wasn't as dark as it had
been when I fell in through the
door. 1 made out the shape of a
small window on the north sldo of
the room. As I -continued to stare
at the window a paralyzing cold

I was not alone In the room!

each other over a table In front of
the window. Tho outline of their

frame, but they were unmistakably
there. That Is, unless I wero mad.
and I was not at all sure that 1 was
not! They must know I was here.
Why didn't they ttpenk, or coin 0 to
me? They sat perfectly still.
Why didn't they move? 'They sat
In dnrknoss. Why didn't they make
a light? .
I moved my Hps In speech, but
no word fell from them, and I
hammered on tho floor with my
fists. Again I tried to speak, this
time with better, success,
"Say, there! I wish you'd help
me."
The two men neither spoke nor
moved.
That paralysing coldness began
to creep over me again, hut I shook
It off. Htruggllng mightily, I man

I remembered tho solitary match

I drew the match sharply across

So color and beauty and the lux-,

use' In the air, a long stride beyond
the days when the Wrights sat on
an open perch to manipulate their
controls or even the more recent
days when a monotonous simplicity
was thought to be necessary! The
use of colorful fabrics, with their,

I dropped the match and flopped
down on my back again. .
"I am mad, or else L am, dream

In that moment of l(ght I had
seen playing cards - and stacks of
poker chips on the table. The two

fought the horror rising in my
breast. 1 was asleep! That" was
It, of course. Afterwards, I would
laugh at my craity nightmare! And
yet and yet I rah my. hands over
the floor. Sand scoured my finger
ends. I felt of my body thin and
bony, but real enough.' Ilreathlng
deeply, I lifted my eyes to the win

two heads and shoulders were still
there. . ,
"Well,". .1 said aloud, "If you

Sliding my hand over tho edge
of tho table, I clutched one of tho

Steadying myself with the table, I

would fall, but somehow I mu tinged

"Speak to me!" I lmplorod. "A

Still that dreadful silence. Hor

hand crept along the shoulder, to

Tho flesh was cold.

All feeling went out of my nrms

NEW WAY TO
COOK VEGETABLES
Four Famous ' Cooking; Ex
perts Discover New
' Method
Four well-known cooking experts
recently conducted a unique food
tasting test in the kitchen of one of
the experts in New York City.
Numerous vegetables were conked.
1. With liberal water without sugar.
2. With little water and no sugar.
3. Liberal water with sugar. 4. Lit
tle water plus sugar. In every case
when the vote was taken, liberal
water without sugar lost, and in
every case little water plus sugar
won.
This discovery shows how to make
vegetables so tasteful and appetiz
ing that both children and adults
wiil ask for more. Just try this
new recipe and then experiment
for yourself and see what a mar
velous difference the addition
of sugar to cooking vegetables'
makes.
Bananas with Cranberries Cook'
2 cups cranberries and cup wateri

and stir until dissolved. Arrange
6 small or 3 large bananas that
have been scraped and cut in half
in a greased baking dish. Pour the

and bake in a moderate oven
(375 F.) 20 minutes until the
bananas are tender. ..
