Art Cart•y's face went white in

her over on her bath, and as his

sound. Art felt his heart pound
:wavily with relief, and he thought
abstractedly that it must have stom-
ped altogether during that moment
after he found her.
But there was nothing he could
lo, and the realization swept over
him sickeningly. He looked 'up
from Honey's still fort, and he saw
Joe Danburne. Something burned
inside him as he got to his feet
and moved heavily, with narrowed
eyes, towards the man who had
tried to kill this girl. But Joe Dan-
burne did not move. did not look
up as Art stood towering over him.
And the toe that Art put roughly
against Danhurne's chest to turn

He heard the rubbery bite of tires
as the brakes of the car were ap-
plied, and then a man was running
toward him. He followed Art to
where the two bodies lay, Honey's

burne's cold and still. There was
a town just a few miles farther on,
and a hospital. Honey would be

CHAPTER XII
The sickly smell of ether was the
first thing Honey became conscious
of. Though she had never been un-
fortunate tnough to conte in con-
tact with it before, one guess was
enough to tell her what it was and
that she must be in a hospital.
There was no noise, just absolute
quiet.
She opened one eye slowly and
then the other. Art was standing at
the foot of the bed, very pale and a
small bandage across one temple.
Site shifted her eyes without mov-
ing her head on the pillow and saw
two nurses and a doctor in a white
coat, all looking at her hopefully,
She smiled and Art ,loved around
to the side of the bed and took her
hand inhis.
as
"Feel better?" he asked her with
grave concern in his voice as he
looked down upon her.
"Did I get shot?" she asked him
instead of answereing his question,
her eves demanding the truth.
Art nodded his head and the doc-
tor came forward.
"In the shoulder, young lady,"
s5id the physician. "You will be all
right." There was assurance in his
manner and tone. "You were mighty
lucky. The bullet left a clean hole
and went on out. There was no
probing to be done."

Relief swept across her face. "Can
I travel?" She had to get to Dan
and every second was precious.
From the events in the Past two
days, it was beginning to look as
if she .would never get to tell Dan
what she wanted him to know.
"Today?" she added eagerly,
"Well, no—" he began, his gray
head shaking slowly, but she inter-
rupted.
"I must." Tears threatened to
conte to the surface but she pushed
them back stubbornly. "I have to
get to Los Angeles without delay.
Are we far from there?"
"A matter of 200 miles, bliss

fully and she did not lower her be-

he suggested after a minute or two.
"It wouldn't be such a strain that
way."

Can You Name
All These Foods?
Our everyday foods have varied
and interesting itistot'ies and some
of them have had a major role its
the march of civilization, writes
Alan A. Brown in The Christian
Science Monitor. Here are some
background facts about some of
our common foods. I"rohn these
clues, can you recognize them?
Answers are printed, upside down,
underneath—just for checking pur-
poses, of course.
1. It originally came from tropi-
cal America, and was once known
as . the "lore apple." In 1893 the
Supreme Court decided that, no
matter what its botanical classifi-
cation, it was a vegetable for all
practical purposes.
2. Horticulturists squirm when
they hear this fruit called alt. alli-
gator pear. They say it doesn't be-
long to the pear family at all.
3. This symbol ofy hospitality was
• first introduced in the Netherlands.
It reached England where its use
originally was condemned as hea-
thenish, but where it later became
ritual.
4. This fish, when canned, is eaten
almost universally. It "created a
tremendous industry for Alaska.
This is probably the most interest-
ing and useful food the sea has
given to ,tau.
5, This Oriental product of the
bean plant was used for many years
as fodder before it ry55 recognized
as one of the greatest of all vege-
table foods, %visit vast nutritional
possibilities. It has enormous con-
centrated food value. It came ori-
ginally from China.
6. It is considered a strange look-
ing vegetable. It's really an un-
opened flower bud and it grows
on a thistle -like plant. Some botan-
ists refer to it as an "educated
thistle."
7. According to some accounts
this fruit was popular with Ding
Tut and Isis ancestors. The Pilgrim
fathers, the records show, gathered
this fruit-of-the•vine less than 10
years after the Mayflower reached
America. De luxe moderns have
been grown to fit the family -size
refrigerator.
8. History does not record the
origin of this food. It has been
found in tate ancient tombs of
Egypt, -It is grown on every con-
tinent. It has been important in
the advance of civilization.
9. With the possible exception
. of salt, this food enters into more
different items of our diet than any
other food product. Its manufac-
ture is older than history, and is
referred to in the Sanskrit of
ancient India. It is the key to
the history of the West Indies.
10. Long before Columbus dis-
covered this continent the natives
of Mexico and Pert: were enjoy-
ing this beverage. Columbus is said
to have been the first to bring word
about this food to Europe. In
various fortes it is used as a drink,
candy, flavoring, in cooking, baking,
etc.

Can't We Be Friends, Little Girl?—diary Janet Mueller, 2 j

they're such friends as a St. Bernard dog and a Sicilian donkey.
The trio became acquainted at a recent Sportsman's Show, like

"Studio Shopping"
Has Its Problems
Being a studio shopper is nice
work is you can get it, and about
half the women in Los Angeles ap-
peal' to be trying.
Almost every time Shopper Dor-
othy Steppling says, "Charge it to
Twentieth Century -Fox," the cus-
tomers in, earshot, as Well as the
clerk waiting on her, all say; "Ooh,
what an interesting job you have,
how can I get tate like it?"
The line for the job 'forms on
the right, if the ladies can stand
on their feet that long. There are
less 111521 a dozen shoppers all told
and they love being paid to buy
gobs of merchandise at somebody
else's expense.
Shoppers buy everything an
actress wears from the skin out, or
the materials with which the ward-
robe department can snake the
clothes. That includes everything
from anti-perspiraut shields to hat
trimmings "a cow can eat." Winnie
Martin, Paramount's buyer, once
actually filled such a request, with
carrots, lettuce and turnips sculp-
tured to look like flowers.
Targets for Today
The shopper starts out in the
morning With a list of 1te1t1S to buy
that day, along with sampies of
fabrics and colors to be matched,
One day recently, Dorothy Step-
pling had to get these:

June Haver (tills was in winter

Modern Etiquette
by Roberta Lee
Q. l., there any difference between
+t wedding invitation and a wedding
annnt,nreilu'nt?
A. Yes, there is quite a difference.
Should you lecoive a wedding invita-
tion, it means that the bride and
bridegroom will be pleased to have
you attend, and this requires a gift
of some kind. Should you receive an
announcement, it ,beans that for
some reason you have not been in-
vited to attend, and naturally a gift
is not obligatory.
Q. Where should the dale be writ-
ten 011 a 4ociat letter or note;.
A. The date should'be written at
the left of the sigti.ature, on the last
page of the letter or note.
Q. Is brealrfast bacon correctly
eaten with the fingers?
A. No; with the font. '
Q, What should be done when a
marriage engagement is broken af-
ter the wedding presents have been
received:
A. The girl should return all pres-
ents to the senders at once, with
notes of explanation.
Q. Is it good form, %viten-intro-
ducing two persons, to say, "This is
my friend, Mr, Wilson"?
A. No; this would imply that the
other person is not a friend.
Q. Where should tate monograms
be placed on breakfast and luncheon,
napkins?
A. In a corner of the napkin, and,
of course, the napkin should be
folded in such a way as to display
the monogram.
