" Chapter T
r--- A LIFE ENDANGERED
CYNTHIA wai married on August
20 and on the 22nd aha sailed
with Frank Walsh for Australia.
He was to bs there (or six months
and then return to take up the Jun
ior partnership which Cynthia's ten
thousand dollars had made possible.
Nan went to the boat to see them
off. She was dutifully kissed by
Frank, and rather perfunctorily by
Cynthia. She walked back to a room
strewn with all the odds and ends
which had not been worth taking to
Australia, with the feeling that she
had come to a dead end. She was
married, and Cynthia was married.
She bad lost her Job. Cynthia didn't
want her any more. Jorvls Weare
certainly didn't want bar.
She tidied the room, and then sat
down to face the future. She had
bees married six days, but It was
the first time she had really had
East Sixty-fifth street It was, of
course, very Improbable that she
would learn anything by doing so.
It was Irrational to expect to learn
anything. It was Irrational to want
to see Rosamund.
She walked through Blxty-flftb
street. The door of No. 29 was shut,
and the blinds were down. When
Nan had' walked to the end of the
block, she turned back. This made
it necessary for her to pass No. 19
again. She stood still and looked at
the house. Somothlng came to ber
from It she didn't know quite what
it was, but she didn't like 1U
As this thought went through her
mind, she saw a taxi coming up the
street towards ber. The taxi stopped
in front of No. 29. Without con
scious plan, she whisked round be
hind the taxi and was In time to
see Rosamund Carew emerge and
mount the steps which led to No.
29. Nan received an impression of
height, grace, and brilliance. Rosa
mund went up the steps, and a msn
got out of the car and followed her.
Nan leaned sideways against tbe
taxi. She tried to step back, and
the pavement lifted under her foot
The man was Robert Leonard. After
ten years, she was Just as sure of
that as she was that when she had
seen him last be had Just struck
down Jervis Wears and left blm to
drown.
Nan saw Rosamund find a man go up the lisps. The man was Robert
Leonard I
time to think. To get Cynthia mar
ried, to buy Cynthia's outfit, and to
get her off by the same boat as
Frank, had taken every bit ot her
thought and time and energy. It
was characteristic ot Cynthia that
he bad not even asked what Nan
was going to do. For the moment
her consciousness was so saturated
with Frank as to be unable to take
in anything else. She had gone as
completely, 11 not as Irrevocably,
Into another world as II she bad
died.
Soma day she would come back.
Borne day she would probably want
Nan again. But Nan was not able
to derive a great deal ot comfort
from this thought She had mother
sd Cyntbla ever since Cynthia was
born and she, a baby of throe, had
cuddled the new baby In her small
strong arms.
When she had sat on the edge ot
' the bed for about half an hour she
got up, put on her hat and went out
It had become cloar to ber that she
must have a Job and Jobs do not
Just drop Into your lap; you have to
go out and wrestle tor them.
When she had been to three agen
cies, she folt better. None ot the
agencies bad anything to offer her,
but one of them had asked whether
she would cars to make a voyage to
South America In charge ot chil
dren. She toyed with the idea over
a oup of tea. It was not without Us
charm. Very, very badly she felt
the need ot someone to look after.
What she really wanted to do was
to look after Jorvls Weare. She won
dered It he was sleeping better. She
wondered if he had loft town. She
wondered who darned his socks.
She wondered if he was very much
y love with Rosamund Carew. She
wondered where the tall, fair Rosa
mund was now, In town, or in ths
country? It would he quite easy to
find out She knew Rosamund's ad
dress well enough, since she had
often taken lettors to her for Mr.
Page.
She paid her bill at ths tea-room
and walked slowly along. It would
be quit easy for bor to walk down
Nan atood behind the car, waiting
tor her strength to return. In an
Instant, Robort Leonard ran down
the steps. Nan saw htm for a mo
ment In profile, and then the cat
was between them. He wore a light
folt bat and a grey suit His (ace
was florid and tanned. He had a
small fair cllppod moustache and a
straight line ot light eyebrow. Tba
eyelids beneath It had a crumpled
look.
Nan pressed close up against ths
car. She did not want Robert Leon
ard to see her. He must be a cousin
ot Miss Carew's aha remembered
that Rosamund was Rosamund Ve
ronica Leonard there was nothing
odd that be should be with her. And
then Robert Leonard's voice:
"It's tbe tour-fltteen all right
You'll have to hurry. Let him come
out of the terry house and get well
away. He's sure to walk he has s
craze for exeroise."
"And supposln' he takes a taxi
what then!" This was the driver,
in a hoarse, throaty voice.
"You must do tbe best yon can,"
said Leonard Impatiently.
He turned away. The driver's
voice followed him.
"Look here, cap'n, I'm not so keen
on this Job as I was."
Leonard turned round again.
"Take it or leave It!" he aald.
"Twenty-five hundred dollar's
twenty-live hundred dollars," said
the hoarse, complaining voice.
"Exactly."
"And Jalt'e Jail."
"Well," aald Leonard carelessly,
"you needn't touch It If yon don't
want to."
"Oh, I'll do It," said the driver.
"I'm a man o( my word, I am."
Nan heard the whirr ot the
starter. Her knees were shaking.
The taxi began to move. It slipped
away, leaving her shelterless.
Robert Leonard, with his back U
her, was mounting the steps ot Ne.

NEWPORT, Aug. 30 (6pl.) A new
and valuable market for fresh (lah
has been reached by the Newport riah
company, which Is now sending about
90.000 pounds ot fresh salmon Mtli
week by refrigerator trucks to I
Angeles. This contact was mads only
recently and the truck line from this

for a load. Ths (lah are packed In
boxes and loaded Into compartment
with dry-Ice refrigeration and arrive
In Los Angeles absolutely fresh. The
trucks travel night and day, so the
trip Is made In quick time. At pres
ent low prices In Los Angeles people

cost thay can well afford, snd New

plus product,
This company la slao sending large
quantities of freah salmon snd hali
but to Ban Frsnclaco, Oakland and

L
OF SCHOOL
SHOULD BE EYED
With th opening of another school
year cloee at hand, the Oregon State
Board of Health U again reminding'
parents of the state that children
must be physically equipped to under,
take this new work.
The warning letter addressed to
health officer In all towns In Ore
gon reads In part:
"Physical handicaps may lead to
mental handicaps, with the result that
such children will fall to make as
rapid progress tn school as they other
wise would. Due to diseased' ade
noids or abscessed teeth common in.
fectlons of childhood a child may
fall to gain weight properly or per
haps be 1U. At the time of Illness It
may bs that nothing can be dons to
correct the defect and It is necessary
to wait until the child's physical con.
dltlon is such that the correction
can be made.
"Having recovered from his illness,
the parents often postpone the cor
rection In the hope that there will
not be a recurrence of Illness. The
child thus goes along with his ab
scessed teeth or diseased tonsils, per
haps without any acute Illness, for
some months until finally It la dis
covered that he has developed a far
more serious condition, such as heart
trouble.
"Sufficient time remains before the
opening of school to correct minor
defects so common in pre -school chil
dren. If a child needs glasses, there
Is plenty of time to have the eyes
tested and time enough for tbe child
to become accustomed to his glasses
If action is taken at once. If the
child needs his tonsils or adenoids re
moved, there Is sufficient time to
have It done and for the child to re
gain his normal health and possibly
to Improve before school begins.
"When the child goes to school he
la thrown In contact with, larger
numbers of children than ever before
and Is, therefore, more likely to be
exposed to communicable diseases.
No parent should even consider send
ing a child to school without giving
him protection against two serious
communicable diseases, namely, diph
theria and smallpox."
BILLION SLASH IN

"Nation's Business," said unless such
a cut Is made "none of the pallia
tives thus far devised will succeed."
