At the foot of the hed a doctor and nurse watched hed anxiously. She had slept for 24 hours, a sleep of exhaustion encouraged by a sedative the doc- tor had given her. She rose slowly to the surface of consciousness, Then suddenly all the events of the night on the boat came back to her. "Let me out of here," she cried, and started to get out of bed. But the nurse stepped forward and firmly forced her back under the covers.- "You must be very careful," she insisted, "You are a sick girl," put in the physician, bending' over her attentively. Judith pressed her lips together and pulled herself back against the pillows. She looked , at the doctor defiantly. "I want to know if T look like a crazy person?" The doctor shook his head quickly and smiled at her. "Of course not, niy dear, you're just a sick young lady." "All right then. Listen to me. Call up the Watson Airplane fac- tory and ask for Mr. Mathews and tell him to conte after Miss Kingsly at once. Will you do that? Promise?" He nodded. "I'll do it right away, Miss Kingsly. Now yourest and have some food. You haven't eaten in the last 24 hours, you know." "That isn't the half of it. 1 haven't eaten in two days. You had better tell Mr. Mathews to bring me some clothes too." She eyed him suspiciously. "You did ., promise to call?" .* * ' Tie nurse and doctor went out together. "Are you really going to call, Doctor 1Vlartin?" the girl whis- pered. "What harp can it do?" he challenged. "I told her I would and I don't like to lie. Besides, there. alight be some truth in her words. it's a clew to .work on, you know. But I and afraid it is just a mental case." Judith was given food and after she had finished her hair was combed and curled and tied up. One of the student nurses brought some powder and rouge. But there were no clothes for her, so she stayed in bed obediently. She was beginning to think her message bad not been delivered or that Mathews had deserted her when the door of her room was pushed open and in carne the manager of the factory, weighed ISSUE No. 13-43 D down with boxes and bundles, and followed by the doctor and nurse. "Miss Kingsly I" he cried. "I've never been so glad to see a person in niy life." He dropped the boxes on the floor and reached to kiss her cheek as if he were an old friend. "We've been crazy. Mr. Watson is flying out here—should be in here in a few hours now." * * * Judith smiled, her eyes glowing: But before she could speak,_ the doctor was saying apologetically: ".I'm so sorry about all this, Miss Iiingsly:" She accepted the apology with a wave of her bandaged hand. "Mr. Mathews—what happened to Tom? Did the deter--" Her' eyes were cloudy with tears. He smiled and nodded his head. "The detectives reached the boat right after you jumped overboard. There was some shooting but all the men were captured and Burke was unharmed. Even the ones at the house were caught. That's why the detectives were a little slow in catching up with you." "Then Toni is all right." Glad- ness rang in her voice and-. the tears spilled over her lashes. She wiped at them with the corner of the sheet. "He will be in a little while," grinned the manager knowingly. "Just as soon as I get you out of here. I haven't told him yet about you. I have him out at my place. We'll go there immediately." Two nurses came to help Judith dress ill the lovely things Mathews had brought for her. The band-. ages were removed from her hands and Judith found that the scratches had healed nicely. "I had no idea you were so lovely, Miss Kingsly," said one of the nurses, as she stood off to have a better look. "Quite remarkable how a• little - fixing up helps," smiled Judith. "Think I'll do now?" "If he doesn't say he loves you, something is wrong with his eye- sight." * * * Mathews was waiting for her in the hall. He tucked her arm through his aiid led her away. "I just called home and found out Burke is in the garden. I told them to keep him there. It's a pretty setting for the reunion of lovers." Judith blushed but made no comment. The car pulled into the drive- way and Mathews pointed in the direction of the swimming pool. "Follow the walk around there and you'll find him somewhere nearby." Judith slipped from the car and hurried down the flagstones. She had never been so happy in her life. She rounded a shrub and ran smack into someone. She bounced back, breathless, as the roan turned.

A * * Much later Mathews sante -nut to say that Watson was there, and wanting to see them. J'udith's eyes were bright with the happi- ness of love as she and Tom slave ly followed him to the house. "Miss Kingsly!" Watson hurried across the room, and took her into his arms, -Jud- astonished by his sudden ace tion, was mute and wide-eyed. He kissed the top of her head. "My dear girl -- I have been frantic over your disappearance. I'm taking you back east with me —at once." "Just a minute," put in .Tom, "Miss Kingsly doesn't work fox you any more." "What do you mean?" Watson almost shouted the question; then he subsided and smiled. "I see," he said. "I suppose you are tale- - ing over the. jab of her future?" Judith blushed as Tong's arm went around her waist and pulled - her to his side. "That's right, Mr. Watson," Burke answered. "Judith did a swell job for the company. She: was responsible for rescuing ma and capttuing those spies. No man could have clone better. But I never want her life put in danger again, and it isn't going to be," he added determinedly. "From now onshe's going to lead a shel- tered life." There was a twinkle in hie eyes as he kissed her. Watson was beaming at them as he reached for Tom's hand; then he turned to Judith. "I'll miss .seeing that red head •of yours every day, Miss Kingsly. But, frankly, I sent you out here because I hated to see you and Burke separated. I thought you two might patch things up if I threw you together." He sighed. "I had no idea I was letting you in for such an experience. I trumped up that excuse of a leak in the organization just to send you out here. It's a good thing I did." - "It's a good thing for both' of us," said Tom: Judith turned glowing eyes to the Man she loved. "And for nae too," she smiled. Mathews suddenly reasserted himself as host. "Well, seeing that the future is taken care 'of, suppose you two explore the gar- den again. I'll entertain Mr, t SOD." THE END GfARD.EN NOTES By Gordon L. Smith rim Get a Catalogue A good Canadian seed catalogue is an indispensable reference book for the amateur. In addi- tion to . giving him actual photo- graphs of the flowers and vege- tables it furnishes actual plant- ing directions. These books tell whether cer- tain varieties are suitable to Can- ada and also give important points such as time of planting, resistance or lack of resistance to frost, height, color, season of blooming, whether scented, and also the suitability of the flower for cutting purposes. All of these points should be taken into con- sideration in planning a real gar- den, •authorities state, as only with such knowledge can a coin- prehensive and practical scheme be worked out. Hot Beds When a large number of early plants are needed, these can be started from seed in a hot bed weeks before the outdoor garden is ready. It consists of a bed of fresh horse manure, which sup- plies the heat, about 18 inches deep. On this two or three inches of fine soil is placed and after the bed has heated up and than cooled down again (a matter of three or four days) the seed iti sown in rows a few inches apart, The bed is protected by rough boarding along the side and on top, and sloping towards the South about 10 to 13 inches above the bed is placed a window sash with all glass intact. On warm days this is .lifted a few inches for ventilation. When the plants have developed their second set or leaves they are thinned out and before being transplanted outside they are -hardened in a cold frame which is simply a hot bed' witllieitit any heating material. Flowers to I" it There are flower gardens that fit :almost any situation. Foe those pe -ogle who have neither the .tinio nor inclination there are Plenty 'of :annual flowers that JAILED JAP Prince Chichibu, brother of Japan's Emperor Hirohito, is re- vealed to have been arrested on Pearl Harbor day charged with being "sympathetic with enemy powers." -thrive almost on neglect. A little digging of the ground in late spring is about all that is re- quired. Take each things as alyssum, dwarf marigolds, portu- lace and California poppies for edging. These are little flowers that almost seed themselves, crowd out weeds, do well in any location, but prefer sun and light soil. Once started they will look after themselves. For the centre of beds or near the back, larger flowers such as calendula, nasturtium, poppy and phlox will make a good showing, and for screens, castor beans, dahlias, cosmos, sunflower, • tall marigold are advised. For scent, especially in the eve- ning, a few nicotine, carnations, mignonette or stocks will perfume the whole garden. TABLE TALKS SADIE S. CHAMBERS Salads That Are Different .Salads are attractive forms in which to serve either vegetables or fruits, raw or cooked.
