BYSOPSlSr Re Moor, tup
pogedly lot while trying to fly the
Paaifle, ha returned to London.
Be leant from his former em-
Jloyer that Laurie Moore, hi icie,
9 an employee of Albery'. But
there is something odd in the way
Moore take the newt. A lb try
think. Still more odd i the fact
that Laurie and ftex rode in the
jams compartment from Liverpool
to London without apparently rec
ognizing each other.
Chapter Six.
MAD SITUATION
t S It bap pen s, 1 have Mrs.
Moore's address here," said
Mark Albery. "Mrs. Moore worked
tor me personally for a few weeks
while my private secretary was 111.
She does not have a telephone, how
ever." A slightly elaborate explanation,
and not quite true. Albery had asked
Laurie for her address because he
wanted to know where she lived.
He found It In his address book
and gave It to the young man.
"Do you think perhaps you ought
to warn Mrs. Moore? Shall 1 do it for
you? It will be such a shock'
"You Just said Joy doesn't kill,"
retorted Moore, with that sudden
smile in his eyes, touched with mock
ry. "Thanks very much. I'll Just get
right along'
Albery felt a sudden dislike for
the airman. There was something
Incomprehensible about him. His
manner was so off-hand, almost In
human. He was certainly changed,
not only In looks. Perhaps hie ad'
venture had really turned his brain
a little.
"I have a great admiration for
Mrs. Moore," be said, a trifle stiffly.
"She has shown the greatest pluck.
and she is a splendid worker. You
are a very lucky man, Moore."
"Sure, 1 know 1 must be," was the
airman's reply, as they shook hands.
On Albery's part, not quite so warm
ly, this time.
Laurie Moore sat In her little living-room
in the roof, with Its slant
log attic ceiling on either side of the
quaint dormer window, from whlcb
she looked over a dusty wilderness
behind high fences, whero tbe old
houses on the other side of tbe street
had been pulled down, and re-building
bad not yet begun.
Laurie's house was condemned,
too, with Its eight neighbors. Hers
was the end one, and there was a
solitary plane tree In front of It, at
the moment delicately tassel led and
bursting Into green. j
Laurie waa making an evening
frock for Glad. She had cooked and
eaten her supper and washed up and
put everything away.
IT was a bright little room. Laurie
1 wanted everything that Glad
wanted. And Glad adored color. So
there was orange and soft blue In the
curtains and covers, and there were
flowery cushions, and on the dark
stained floor gay mats, and the fur
niture was painted white and prim
rose. As the old landlady said, It
looked more like a garden thnn a
room.
Laurie's bell rang. That meant
there was a visitor downstairs at the
front door. Each tenant had a bell,
and attended to It. The landlady was
not only old but rheumatic.
Who could U he? She had not many
frlendd. Several of the girls In the
office she liked very much but nearly
all of them lived In the suburbs, and
they only met when they made ap
pointments. She knew three or four
young men fairly well. But with none
of them wan she on such terms that
they would drop In casually just be
fore ten o'clock at night.
She put down the gleaming sky
blue material that she was stitch
ing with her busy, loving fingers,
and went downstairs. She had a little
landing all to herself, but no door
enclosing the flat She switched on a
light on the first landing, as she ran
down.
When she opeued the front door,
a tall man stood outside.
"I want to see Mrs. Moore," he said.
"I am Mrs. Moore," Laurie ans
wered, surprised.
He was In the shadow; her face
was lit by the lamp In the narrow
hall.
He gave a sharp exclamation.
Then stared at her for a speechless
moment. Then asked in a muffled
voice:
"You are Mrs. Moore? You!"
He laughed, and Laurie recog
nized blm, and gave a little cry. It
was the man In the train who had
been so rude to her. I
"Oh, It's you! I didn't see you at

Al Bell of Phoenix spent the went
oX the Fourth at Kiaruatn Falls,
first! What do you want? How did
you know I lived here? How do you
know my name?"
He seemed to find speech difficult.
He was staring at her. He would evl
dently not take bis eyes from her
face.
IT looks like fate," he said at last,
which sounded to her perfectly
ridiculous. Then he went on. "A
friend of yours gave me your ad
dress. I found out your name never
mind how. I want to have a chat
with you. May 1 come in?"
"I don't know why you should,"
she answered, resenting blm, as she
"You were extremely rude to me
had done before. "I don't want to
talk to you. I don't know who you
are. I don't knoT,- what friend ol
mine you could have met. You wer
extremely rude to me In the train."
"I've something Important to say
to you. Let me come In! I won't keep
you long."
His tone was so commanding that
she gave way against her will. Sh
led him upstairs and turned on mori
lights In her room.
She did not ask him to sit down.
She looked at him coldly.
"Would you please explain whj
you are here?"
"Out of curiosity," he replied, with
that smile In his eyes that both fas
cinated mid repnlled her. "I am in a
peculiar position unique, I Imagine.
You will admit I have reason for my
curiosity, not to say Interest. I have
Just lenrned that. you are my widow,
I mean you hove been my widow.
Now, It Is interesting to a man to
learn he hos a widow when ho haa
never had a wife."
Laurie stood there, dumb, her eyes
wide, her mouth open, hut not a
sound could she make. Then her
knees gave way and she fell Into a
choir.
"You see, I happen to be Rei
Moore." he explained. Ills voice was
harsh; his angry Hps curved with
contempt. "I hove just heen with
Mark Albery. and he told me that,
you, my widow, were working in his
office, nnd had been for two years."

ITHACA, N. T. (UP) Develop
ment of a. brand of tear-less and
odorless onions Is the aim of scien
tist of the Cornell university de
partment of vegetable crops who re
cently produced several strains of
non-smelting cabbage.
Experiments are under way, It was
disclosed, to determine on which
types of soil or In what locality either
mild or strong onions may be grown
and what determines the power of
the onion to bring tears to the eyes.
The scientists' hope even to extend
to conquering garlic, It waa Inti
mated. Practical results cannot be expect
ed for several years. Dr. Hans Plate
ntus. engaged In research for the de
partment, announced.
Onlona cause tears because they
contain a volatile oil, present In small
amounts. Dr. Platenlua explained. He
cited experiments made 40 years ago
by a German chemist, F. W. 8emm
ler. "Semmler had to distill more
than a ton of onions to study the
chemical composition and nature of
the oil which he found causes the
tears," Dr. Platenlua said. "Even
then, he obtained less than one-tenth
of a pint of pure oil. What it lacks
In quantity, however, Is made up on
the power of the oil."
Dr. Platenlua disclosed that a frac
tion of a drop of the oil obtained
from the onions was sufficient to

make the odor of onions noticeable
through out several large buildings.
"Based on the finding of Semmler,
we have developed a chemical meth
of of measuring the pungency of on
lona accurately by giving the amount
of volatile sulphur In the onion oil.
This method had to be developed be
cause the common tasting test waa
unreliable.
"Next, we had to discover which
varieties were mildest and which the
strongest. Onions of all the leading
varelttea were obtained from differ
ent parte of the country. Analysis
of the samples showed that our com
mercial varieties can be placed In
three distinct groups the mildest,
medium and the strongest onions."
In the mildest group. Dr. Platenlus
said, the department discovered were
the Italian red. the sweet Spanish
types and the early Orano. In the
most pungent were White Portugal,
Australian Brown, Ebenezer and Red
Creole.
The studies, he said, Include such
problems as temperature, irrigation
and the amount of sulphur In the
soil as they effect the strength of the
onions.

FOR CLEANING UP
AT LAKE 0' WOODS
Upon returning Wednesday from
an Inspection trip to the Dead In-
dlan and Lake o' the Woods districts.
Supervisor Karl Janouch of Rogue
River national forest announced that
he expects word from upstate offices
soon authorizing a plan whereby 75
men chosen from the Jackson county
relief rolls, will be put to work at
relief wages In the forest.
The project, coming under Juris
diction of the Emergency Relief Act,
calls for only hand work, with no
overhead positions, and will be su
pervised by the regular forest serv
ice personnel. Janouch said that he
plans to concentrate the men around
Lake o' the Woods for recreation voile,
reduction of fire hazard, roadside
cleanup, and to thin thick stands of
timber to promote growth.
Specifications of hire and wage are t
expected soon. Janouch said the'
wages would come under the regular
relief wage scale for Jackson county,
which ranges from M4 to $69 per
month, but he was uninformed
whether or not deductions from the
monthly wages would be made for
room and board. He said the matter
of housing and subsisting the men
will be worked out after the project
Is authorized.
