Chapter 3( WHERE 18 JERVI8T NAN cam early to breakfast, and Ferdinand Franela late, Tflth bla red hair sticky and rum pled from the sea. He had made ome attempt to brush It, but except for the color It looked a good deal like the coat of a Scottish terrier. Jervls did not come to breakfast at ill. "Alfred says be went out early," aid Ferdinand over bis bacon. "It's (olng to be hotter than erer, so I ftiess he's wiser to get through with anything strenuous before the ther mometer breaks." By eleven o'clock Alfred was be ing questioned. "Did Mr. Weare say he was going o be late?" "No, ma'am. ' "Well, did he say where he was rolngj" "No. sir." "Did he say anything at all, Al fred?" I "No, ma'am." "Well, did you see which way he went?" '' Alfred looked agonized. He was shy lad with a strong objection to Committing himself. "No, sir." Nan made a flashing guess. "Did you see him at all, Alfred!" "No, ma'am, I can't say I did." "He wasn't there when you went to wake him?" "No, ma'am, I can't say he was." There wasn't anything more to be aid. It was the most ordinary thing In the world for Jervls to get HP and go out before the servants were afoot. He would go down to the sea for a swim at three in the morning If the fancy took him. Since 'Nan had been at Weare he had been out every morning. Once he had walked into Croyston and break fasted there because be wanted to ee a man about a deal In sheep. He night have done the same thing (gain, and he would certainly be (rightfully angry If he were pur ued by fussy inquiries. ; Lunch time passed.' At four o'clock she got np from her chair as (Ferdinand came Into the library, land went to meet him. When they imet, she looked at him, and then ilooked quickly away, "We've got to do something," she aid. "Well, what do you want to dot" "I don't know. I'm frightened." "Oh, I wouldn't be frightened." "He'd never etay away like this iwould he?" : "Well he might. But we'll do llome telephoning and see If we (can't get him. If he went Into IProyston, he'd go to the hotel." : Jervls had not been In the hotel, nor In any of the other placea that Ithey tried. They rang up the Tet Iterleys, and Rosamund answered. ' "Did you want Janet? She's away. IShe and Basher wont oft last night jto put In a couple of days with his klster. Jervls? No, he hasn't been per. Has ha gone off? Well, he jdoes, you know he always has. I Mxpect he's forgotten he's married. l shouldn't ask too many questions lit I were you he won't like It." She Uanghed. : Nan's voice came small, and teady, and clear. "You haven't seen him?" . "Not since yesterday." Nan hung up the receiver. She turned a composed, colorless face kn Ferdinand. 1 "What are we to do?" "What did she say?" "The Tetterleyi are away. She liars they went away last night Sbe isaya sbe hasn't seen him. She says the goes oft suddenly like this. Is (that true?" F. F. ran his hands through his ringer hair. "Well he's sudden. Jervls has always been extraordinarily sudden. It's his temperament. If he gets an Idea, he doesn't want to Walt and turn it over in his mind he wants to get going and do something about It quick." "Without letting anyone know?" Ferdinand rumpled his hair again, "Well, he might give a telegram to someone to send, and they might (By Charles P. Champlln, Jr.) SOUTHERN OREGON NORMAL SCHOOL, ASHLAND. Ore., Oct. 8 (Special) B P. Irvine, editor of the Oregon Journal and member of the Oregon Bute Board of Higher Educa tion, delivered a very Inaplrlng ad dress to the Southern Oregon Nor mal School students at their regular assembly Friday. Mr. Irvine stressed the Importance of doing some kind of work In the world to be proud of. He said that everyone should have very htg,n Ideals and try to work toward them. That school teaching, "If done In the right way Is a wonderful thing and that all school teachers should be Justly proud of themselves If they ean actually put good thoughU Into IRVINE'S ADDRESS INSPIRES NORMAL SCHOOLSTUDENTS the brains, of Vie student," wsa a target It. That's a thing that's very liable to happen. But I was think ing I'd run down into Croyston and make some inquiries." Jervls had not been seen In Croyston. He had not been seen at the railway station. There was an early train to town at seven-forty- live. They tracked down the two porters who had been on duty. Neither of them knew Mr. Weare by sight but the train bad been quite crowded as there was a day excursion. The agent, a long melancholy man with a thin neck and an embarrass ingly mobile Adam's apple, proved to be the type of witness who re sponds Instantly to any suggestion. Asked It he had noticed a tall gentle man with black hair, he Angered bis Adam's apple and looked vaguely over Nan's head. 'Tall gen'leman? Black hair?" Yes," said Nan. "Did you see him?" "Well, I might have." "But did you?" "Very tall gen'leman?" "Six feet," said Ferdinand firmly. The agent's eyes came down an Inch or two. From bis manner It appeared that It they had wanted a gentleman of six-foot-three or up wards, he could have obliged them but six. ... He shook his head mournfully. 'Well, I can't ssy as I noticed anyone of that description." You'd be likely to notice Mr. Weare he's noticeable. Quick walk strong build very black hair holds his head up and looks as II he'd bought the earth." "Well, 1 couldn't rightly say I'd know him." 'Was there anyone on the train who might have been Mr. Weare?" Well, there might have been." The man brightened slightly. "Was there?" said Nan. The agent seemed to think so. He stopped fingering his Adam's apple and scratched bis bead In a melan choly, ruminative manner. They had to leave it at that. When they were driving back from Croyston, Nan said In a suf focated little voice. I dreamt last night that he was dead." Well, that means he's alive," said Ferdinand. "Dreams go by con traries." But he didn't look at her. Stop the carl" said Nan rather breathlessly. Ferdinand pulled up at the side of the road. They were out of sight and hearing of the sea. In a lane with a straggling hedge on either de. The sky over them was veiled with something between haze and tog. The hedges were powdered thick with dust. It was very hot and vory still. The light was piti less glare without sun. "I think there's going to be a storm," said Ferdinand. Nan took no notice. "I dreamt last night that he was doad." She looked straight In front of her, and neither face nor voice had any expression. "It was a dreadful dream. There was a dark place and I saw him he was lying on wet stones it was quite dark." 'How could you see him If it was dark?" said Ferdinand. Nan was affecting him very uncomfortably. Ho made his voice as brisk as pos sible. "I don't know you can In dreams. I saw birfi. He was lying on the wet stones and his eyes were shut. I woke up screaming, and he came In." "What time was it?" "I don't know. I looked at my watch aftorwards It was a quarter to two." "He was up at two perhaps he went out then. What clothes are missing?" They hurried back to the house. Alfred rummaged about for a long while. He found trousers, a blazer, a blue serge suit, dinner clothes, socks, shirts and trunks were miss ing. Moat Important of all, Jervls' raior and tooth brush were not In the bath. Hair brustios he bad left behind: dressing gown too. But a dozen new handkerchiefs were gone Alfred remembered them particu larly. "Why should he have taken all thpse handkerchiefs and left behind his balr brushes?" Nan asked In a low tone. (CopvriflAf.
