DANGEROUS INVESTIGATIONS
'IS3 JENNY!"
She turned, gasping, her
haul on her heart; but It was only
Ryder Vale.
"Startled you nearly out of your
skin!" he remarked cheerfully, hli
(unny smile puckering up his
cheeks. "I was Just going round
to your place. Get In?"
Jenny declined politely.
"I'm afraid Georgle Isn't at
home," she explained. "Mr. Match
Ins whisked her off with him on
some business expedition."
"You've got an Inferiority com
plex." Vale told ber. "Always
think Georgle Is the magnet, don't
youT Hop In, there's a good girl.
Ire got a lot ot little questions to
ask you. The first Is what did
you want to go and get married for
without asking Uncle Ryder's bless
ing?" "I suppose," said Jenny, after a
tautlous pause, "that you read
"MlseJsnnyl"
8he turned gasping, her hand on
about our accident In the paper?';
"You suppose quite rightly. And
you may further suppose that when
I read that TownBend had Just mar
ried a Miss Revell ot Byle Street.
I said to myself 'That must be
our Jenny, for the reason that
sever In this world could It be our
Georgle! No, no, never would our
Georgle chuck that Job ot hers tor
the sak of any little house ot
dreamsl . . . Well, any flaw In
the argument?"
- She bad got In beside blm and
he was driving very slowly along,
his face still amusingly puckered
but something shrewd behind the
mile. Jenny had the Impression
that he waa feeling his way; It oc
curred to ber alsr that, like the
Old Man, he might not believe the
tale she told, but that he would be
satisfied If the telling bore scru
tiny. "No flaw at all," she answered
as casually as she could. "Perhaps
you remember I told you that
Georgle wasn't specially Interested
in Eddie. And you're quite right
about the Job, Georgle Is deter
mined to keep It at any cost."
The last was so true that she had
tittered It almort vehemently and
(he felt him shoot a quick glance
at her. She added, somewhat hast
ily: "What other questlona do you
want to ask?"
"Whore and how poor old
Townsend Is? I hear he went
through the windshield."
"That didn't really matter," said
Jenny with unconscious humor.
"The real damage was done to his
nerves. He has quite broken down
and It's doubtful whether he will
ver be a 'bird-man' again. At any
rate, he will have to have a long
holiday." .
Vale seemed sincerely concerned.
He drove easily along, talking as
easily ot cures, and treatments, and
cases he had known, where recov
ery had been miraculously prompt
and even more miraculously per
tnanent.
"Er where did you say he was
aow?" ha Interjected.
"He made me promise not to tell
any one," answered Jenny firmly.
She had been prepared for this.
COURT IN PLEA
FOR RELIEF ACT
The county court yesterday wired
the Oregon delegation In congress,
asking they give their voices and
votes In support ot the unemploy
ment relief bill now pending, without
any quibbling.
Counly Judge C. B. Lamkln return
ed this morning from Portland, where
he attended the meeting ot county
Judges with the governor for the out
lining of a relief program. No defi
nite action was taken.
Judge Lamkln said that hi obser
vations at the session convinced him
that Jackson county was not "as bad
oft aa many oViec counties ot the
atattj"
"He has a terror of seeing any one
for the time being and so he has
gone Into biding, as you might call
It" She laughed, a pleasant, firm
laugh. "I shan't let him out until
he Is absolutely himself again."
"I see. Very wise! Good Job he
has got you to look after him." But
Vale sounded dubious. "D'you
know a man called Tallas, a doc
tor?" "He gave Eddie flrst-ald Just
after the accident. And be brought
him up from the hospital todsy.
Why do you ask?"
"Oh, well, I know him slightly.
As a matter of fact, 1 came across
blm an hour or so ago, and be
stopped me. Apparently he's heard
I knew you and Georgle. He talked
a bit he's an odd sort of fellow.
Bit ot a gossip. Inquisitive, I
should say."
Jenny considered this In silence.
Was It a warning?
If Ryder Vale were warning her,
what could she do to avest the
danger of Tallas' Investigations?
She decided that she could do noth
ing, but she felt grateful to Vale for
bis hint, and grateful to blm, too.
for accepting a version ot the
facts which, as she Instinctively
felt, be did not bellove. She sighed.
Apparently It was not nearly so
simple as It had seemed, tbls mak
ing people tblnk you had married
her heart
Eddie Townsend when you hadn't!
"You're all alone In that apart
ment?" queried Vale, cocking an
eyebrow at It as he drew up gently
bofore Us door.
"Yes." Jenny hoped that he
would not suggest coming up. Her
head was beginning to ache.
"Then why not come tor a run?"
he Invited. "Come and have a
saucer ot orean. somewhere. It'll
take your mind oft things."
She hod fully meant to decline
when be began to speak but his
voice Bounded genuinely friendly
and she wavered. The empty apart
ment, with Its unfinished chores,
suddenly repelled her.
"I I should like It. But I must
be back by well, quite by six."
"Six It shall be. Any place you'd
like to go to? No? What about
an Inn at a little place up the
river? It's what they call an old
world place. Like old world
places?"
Yes, Jenny liked them. She liked,
also, settling back In tbla Jolly lit
tle car and not having to make con
versation. It rather surprised her
Ryder Vale did not want her to
talk to htm. He had struck her as
a man who would prefer a ripple
of absurdities to nothing at all.
However, he appeared to be preoc
cupied, and she could rest. She
watched the traffic idly and Idly
looked for the first gleam ot the
river.
"Trald I'm a dull dog today,"
he said finally. "Must be the heat;
i can't remember a hotter August
There's the Inn."
Jenny descended Into a court
yard full of white geraniums and
cool green smllax trails. All along
one side ran a tea-room with win
dows thrown wide to the air and
electrlo fans humming. It looked
cool and attractive and there was a
table vacant near a window. She
walked In and took possession.
Slipping the little coat from her
shoulders on to tho back ot the
chair, she glanced round.
Facing her, directly In line with
another window at the oppoelte
end ot the room, sat Garth Aveney,
