In addition, although McHwain's daughter the qrass tctdoto Hilver Uondnn. is obviously in league tcith her father, Lon refuses to see that Marian is starting to net a detective's heln when she sees a man lurkino nearby. M Chapter SI HELP SECURED ARIA.VS ttrat Impulie was flight, any thing to place dis tance between herself and the man who had trespassed on their prop erty and hidden when he realized he wsb being observed. She measured the distance be tween the bouse and her bill top. ' For the Orst time It seemed miles away. In reality It was only a tew yards. There was a revolver at the house. Marian was not confused by her present trouble. After the first fright ber mind worked wltb clear pre cision. That person behind the bouse was a Kanaka boy dressed In the foppish town clothes they affected. . . . McSwaln bad Kanaka boya working for bl:o . . . that was it He bad seen house, prubably ber leaving thought she the was to a bunch of splnscb he's got bis eye on you." "Probably," returned Marian calmly. "Then listen, while you're about It. write me a little squib about the valley and If there's any questions asked J can say you were doing a yarn for inc." , "Fine." Marian agreed, and did as he suggested. "1 hope you'll be run In here again," said Sanderson wben be read It, "I'll feature tills next edi tion." "And be sure uo one sees you mall this," she beggad as, she left the let ter wltb bim. The Wakl'i were delighted to see her. While the little woman dressed, Wakl took her about bis garden, then showed ber wltb great pride the car In which he would drive ber back to the lodge. THEY stopped In town again tor Marian to do some shopping, and Sanderson, casually meeting ber at the green - grocer's, told ber the Kanaka bad stopped In soon after she left, supposedly to ask for the most recent copy of the newspaper. ' "I made him wait," Sanderson said, "while I raved about the story you'd written for us. I talked to the F SHARING EXPENSE A.E.F.1 I MESCHERS LE VERDON, Prance ' (APj Prance's monument to the 'American Expeditionary Porce stands unfinished and dilapidated through lack of funds to finish the work. The 330-foot shaft, built at Polnte de Grave at the mouth of the lronde river near Bordeaux, where the first doughboys landed In Prance and whence Lafayette sailed for Am erica in 1777, was to have been ded icated October 32. It was first pro posed In parliament July 4. 1819, and the cornerstone was laid by President Raymond Poincare on Lafayette day, September 0. the same year. Plans cslled for construction funds of about 1,000,000 francs. (tOfl.OOO), to be shared by America and Prance. - The United States raised Its share, but Prance raised only part of hers and at length asked the American embassy at Paris to induce Americans to give the rest. The embassy rofused, snd the monu ment stands unfinished, in a badly neglected state. The shaft, a pyramid, was to have been surmounted by a light, but port authorities of Bordeaux objected that it would prove a menace to nav igation by being mistaken, for a lighthouse. At the base of the monument were to have been medallions repre senting Lafayette's departure and doughboy'a arrival, but they never arrived. A statue of La Prance, with sword in hand, was carved "Be sure no one sees you mall this," aald Marian. taking some short cut over the hill, and had started to follow. It didn't moan that she was In any Immedl ate danger, It meant she was being followed. She must go on some place now; do something to throw hfm oft the track. She would walk Into town, that would lead McSwaln to be lieve she waa merely going shop ping. Once In there she would go to Wakl'a house, and see If hla wire Hay wouldn't return with her, pre sumably to clean house. The two Japanese, man and wife had worked for her folks before they moved to the ranch and now had a small place of 'heir own. Some way she would got word to John King . . . telephone ... no, she would write him, but where ... she was going down the hill, taking a short cut she had nover before thought nt taking. She could hear lloro bark: ber pursuer had evi dently passed the house. A LL. the way Into town she pon without lotting McSwaln know Among the cars which swished passed ber, waa one neat station wagon. Marian, only glancing at It. believed the man who waa trailing her, was In It- She saw It parked on the roadside a little further along, the man bending over the onglne, as It having .rouble with It. It passed her again aa she neared town. And then as she reached the main street she knew what she would do. Sanderson, her former city editor, had a brother who bad rocently pur chased the valley's weekly paper. She would go In there, write a letter to John King and have Sanderson tnall IU She found Sanderson In his office, explained that she had been having prowlers around her house and wanted to reach this detocllte friend of hers without anyone's knowing what she waa doing. He was eager to help her, took her Into an Inner cubby-hole he uiril as an office and loft her there to write her letter. He returned with jsxrllemcnt In his manner. "Say, Mrs. Casad, there'a a Kan kka boy outsldo and I'll bet a dollar counter girl and talked loud enough so be could hear without trying to . . . and the letter's off. I slipped It In with a bunch of office mall and' dropped It through the alot myself."1 With many starts the Wakl car' went Into action, plunging through the traffic like a balky horse wblcb , has siitidcn!y mado up Its mind to- go. Wakl crouched behind the wheel smiling his beatific smile. May beam ing with prldo. No fear of re-entering the house with these two at ber side. Here were two she could trust wltb any socret. She decided suddenly she would trust them, tell them some thing she couldn't toll Lon. She would ask Lon to hire Wakl to handlo the prune crop, the trees were already dropping. tholr fruit, and Wakl, knowing, would watch the house at the same time. Aftor thoy had made friends with Hero by lotting blm sniff them to his heart's content before they ap peared to notice htm. and after they had admired the house and Wakl had caat a professional oye ovor the garden, she told t b e ra that an oncmy, a very Sad man, waa having hor bothered. She told ot the man she had seen, behind the pile ot tlmbor, Wakl nodded, went out and re turned with a crumpled bit of paper and tobacco In his hand, and wltb a half burned clgnret "1 sink he alia same Kanaka boy, alia , . . alia same amoke roll em, sink be use em, use em holder," he showed ber the pinched end of the halt smoked clgarct, "1 sink 1 s ay here.

"Now that you're earning, Lon," she said, "I did want the fall garden tended so we'd have a world ot blossoms In the spring." After they had left, Lon loitered about the kitchen while she pre pared dinner, quieter than usual, troubled about something. "Inn," he said at length, "Mo Swains want us to spend Sunday with them, how about It?" Tomorrow, a new plot Is begun. eculptor Bourdelle but never left Pans. In a chamber, reached by stair way Inside the shaft, plans called for. a plate with the Inscription. "To the Glory of the Americans.
