MEMORIES
ANNE listened to Judge Kellogg
tell her she wan not the daughter
of Luke and Luclnda Farnsworth Id
bewilderment.
"But I've always been their daugh
ter," ahe murmured inanely. "Why
Judge, Mrs. Harney was saying not
less than an hour ago that she re
membered mother coming home
from the hospital with me."
"Yes, Ajine." agreed the Judge,
"Luclnda didn't know the difference,
herself, then. If you'll remember
what they've told you, Luclnda be
came ill at Crescent City, while on a
trip there with Luke. They rushed
her to the hospital. Her baby was
born there, and died. Tour mother
bad died that same night at the time
of your birth. Fearing the effect the
truth would have upon Lucinda, you
were given to her as her own and not
until she had fully regained her
out i tu leumci 1:1 in; yearh
ill the bench that It's kinder to
break thlnga quickly. Sit down girl,
think It over, I'll be back in a mo
ment." Anne aank Into the chair. For a
few momenta ahe eat staring out of
the window, looking down the nar
row canyon of buildings to where
tho Willamette, a gray ribbon of
water, wound along at the far end.
The river was grey, the roofs of the
buildings were grey, the rain clouds
which hung low in the sky were
grey. And the girl who looked out
of the window felt as though she
were ateeped In a greyish mist of
conftiBcd heartache.
"TP I could cry, I'd feel better, not
I so smothery," she whispered. "I
suppose I'm stunned now, like I was
that . . . that awful night. Soon I'll
realize."
The thought was terrifying. She
couldn't be a nobody. She Jumped to
her feet and sped to the next room
where Judgo Kellogg was staring
out of the window.
"Judge " ahe tried to control the
hysterical note In her voice, "Judge,
who am I?"
Ansel Kellogg turned, and he who
had aat at the bar of justice sen
tencing men and women to life im
prisonment or the noose, found It

"Thlnga Ilka that don't happen In life," Anne said.
Itrength and had began asking
ueer questions, waa ahe told the
truth."
And suddenly Anne believed.
Llttlo unrelated things flashed out of
her memory to confront her with
their ovidonco.
She had told Harney, she never
fainted. She didn't faint now. She
stood up, gripped the cholrback un
til her knuckles wore white and her
flngors ached. Those people. That
mnn and woman whom she had
loved , . . whom she atlll loved so
dearly, over whom she bad grieved
lo deeply. They were not her parents.
"I ... I can't . . . can't quite believe
It." Her voice waa husky, labored.
"It's so ... so melodramatic, so fan
tastic. Things like that don't happen
In life."
In a moment she would awaken.
This was another of those terrible
dreams which had haunted her slnco
tho night of the trngedy. There was
a clock ticking slowly in the room.
Like the clocks at school. Luclnda . . .
Luko . . . but why hadn't they told
her?
A MOMENT of rebellion swept over
her. Why had they taken her to
their hearts, poured their lovo and
care over her with such lavlshness,
then withdrawn everything at a
tlmo llko this?
Judge Kellogg motioned to tho
pasteboard cun of water he had
drawn from the cooler and placed
before hor. She looked at It stupidly.
He picked It up and thrust It Into
her hands, "netter drink," he In
sisted. It she could only deny It In her
heart, hut sho couldn't. Childhood.
Visitors meeting her for the first
time.
"Doesn't resemble either one of
you," they'd say.
And sho would rush to a mirror
lo study her reflection, searrhlng for
one similar feature. She'd tried to
resemble one or tho other, so hard.
Sho remembered how, unable to
copy Ludmla's small-boned grace
fulness, she had taken to standing,
feet apart, hands rlasped behind her
back, chin out. like Luke, and how
they'd InuRhed, and Luclnda had
cried a little at the ludicrous little
figure she'd msde.
"Sorry I had to tell you like this
almost Impossible to speak. He
looked at the modlshly clad girl, at
the white face dominated by the
wide-Bet ilark eyes and darkor brows,
at the brave uplift of the chin.
"We'll find out . . . somehow," ho
promised.
"That means you don't know," she
declared. "Ploaso won't you tell me
everything? It's going to be easier
to know the truth than face any
more uncertainty like this."
"Let's go back and sit down," he
auggested and, arm about hor shoul
der, he diroctcd her to the Inner
room.
"Judge, wouldn't adoption pnpera
tell about my parents?"
"They would Anne. If Ihnra
any papers. It was duo to their ab
sence mat i learned as much as I did.
The Westport attorney, Cllve Bur
ton's his name, telephoned mo last
night. Ho know I had acted for
Farnsworth at time. And Miniii,t r
might be able to lornto the papers or
some record of their hnvlng been
drawn up.
"Burton said that Farley Insisted
there had been no papers drawn. He
said your mother had como Into tho
hospital as an emergency ense, un
conscious, alone. She died tho same
night. Farley was lust beclnninr ht
law practlco at Crescent City, where
an oi mis iook place. Luke sent for
him, their first meeting by the way,
but aa your mother didn't regain
consciousness, there was nothing he
could do." He paused at tho oulck
gasp which came from Anne.
"That's It . , . that's what Tom
Farley has known about me. Judge
Kellogg that man hates me."
"I don't think he's over running
with love for anyone, excepting Tom
Farley." Kellogg replied.
Anno'a eyes wore wide, calm now.
She nodded. "I understand. If he can
prove I'm not adopted, then I won't
be ahle to ask for my share of the
estate."
Kellogg nodded. "That seems to
be tho Idea, If he would only be con
tont to stop there."
"What do you mean?".
"He's planned further person
Hon, Anne. That's why I said I must
see you beforo anyone else."

Strange as It seems, the very watera
of Niagara Talis are warmed slightly
by the terrific friction that results
when they strike the bottom of the
falls. There Is a temperature differ
ence of about a qunrtcr of a degree
between water above the falls and
water below.
The snuffbox Income by which Cn-
rafa was able to mako both ends
meet was a subsidy In disguise given
to hlra by Baron James de Rothschild.
The bnron gave the composer the
ornate snuffbox as a present. Cnrnfa,
although a prolific writer of contem
porary operatic successes, was in need
of money. Next day he sold It for
ucarly 300 to the Jeweler from whom
Rothschild had bought It.
When Rothschild heard of this he
bought the box ngain from tho Jew
eler and attain presented it to Carafn.
This buying and selling of the snuff
box continued until the baron's death
and after that his sons continued
the practice.

The Great Dnncls a dog of German
origin, or at least a dog bred to Its
present condition In Germany. There
they were used In hunting wild boars
and were known as boarhounds. The
breed was first recognized by English
dog shows and deemed eligible for
registry In 1883. In tho following
year the name was changed to Great
Dane, although no- reason for the
change had been recorded.
