All this slid not greatly interest hint. It did not stake him forget that the girl he loved had gone away and that he did not know 'where to find her. Three day ago :he had ben here. Almost his. Almost attainable. Perhaps entirely attainable if he had but had the courage to tell her how he felt about her. Now she was gone; and these two fantastic peopic from another world were in het place—a pampered girl who beef probably mistreated hey and driven her away; a man who' had once belonged here but whose presence in the house today was somehow unnatural. Duncan Rueter said to hint, "You'=e old enough to remember certain things about rete, young McNeil:.. You may recall bearing I was In an institution for the insane. I was escaping from that place when you passed me on the road. l ve been staying here since then. I'm on are way to give my- self up now—" "But he'll '.te out again soon," old Bertha broke in, nodding her head cm.phatica.11y. "Ob. yes," eaid Elaine. "He's sane. Saner than any of us here, I believe." She laughed lightly to relieve the tension. John McNeill heard all this oi'!y in relation t., the girl who had been here and was gone. His mind said. "God! An escaped madman. Ancl he was living in the hou.e with her for days!" "I Wasn't Curious" Duncan Hunter said, "Can you call a taxi for me, McNeill?" "Yes," replied John. "But first I must ask you something. You were here in this house with an- other person for several {lays. Not your niece, but a girl about her age. She': gone, and none of us know where. Do you know, by ant thane's?" Duncan Hunter shook his head. "ilt shames me to say that I don't, The girl came to me in the dark- est hour of any discouragement and persuade,] me to hold on a while longer. She talked sand and grit into rhe, She opened the door for me—if I may be permitted to speak in an old-fashioned, florid way—to a healthy vision of life and elute.. But, like most introverts, I came out of the ex- perience thinking only of myself. I forgot to be curious about her. She was nothing but a gentle per- sonality who bat helped ane over a rough place, Who is she, by the way?" "I. don't know," John McNeill told hint. Duncan Hurter looked at John McNeill's tight-lipped face and said, "If you want to find her that much, it can be done. There are ways. Detective service, you know. I've more money than I']1 ever need. You can count on ane to any extant." 'Thank you, Mr. Hunter," John, said, belatedly offering his hand, "I can swing the cost all right. Your advice was what I needed. I'll call a taxi now. What train are gen catching, the 10:15 south?" "Yes," replied Duncan Hunter. "Goodby, my boy, and good luck, Never let a girl go if you love her. I did that once—" Driving Like Mad After John had gone they stood locked in inactive silence for a time. Then Elaine said, "Was it Jane Emerson, Uncle Duncan?'" "Yes," he answered. "That was her name then." "It's still her name," Elaine told him, "She's secretary to Ma- dame Leshki at Graycastle. She's very good-looking and attractive, but so straight-laced you want to kill her." "She was always those things,". Duncan replied. "But a roan shoulcli't put a ;Brazilian adven- ture before his love. Not if his love happens to be a proud, un- forgiving woman." Elaine said, "I think it's be - cense of you that. she takes such an interest in rete. She's always slaw Burning CIGARETTE PAPERS NONE 1;1NER MAD Who Was the Laredo Kid?

In this North- ern Ontario village is being con," ducted an experiment in child welfare and psychology which is being watched with the closest at' tention, not only by the medical profession but by the public at large, on practically every con- tinent; for it is the birthplace of those remarkable Dionne Quin- tuplets — Yvonne, Annette, Ce- cile, Emilie and Marie, who sines their birth on May 28, 1934, have become the most famous babies known to modern history, and wards of the Ontario Govern- ment.

An excel- lent supervised outdoor play- ground adjoins the hospital, which stands within its own grounds. The Dafoe Hospital was built by the Ontario Red Cross Division. Organizations and cor- porations, located in Canada and the United States have offered every co-operation, and thus the children are growing up under ideal conditions.

Firstly, we must take advantage of the cheaper fruits for our own fain. dies, Secondly, each one of us should try to meet the requests of the various organizations 501- iciting our help for extra fruit. Thirdly, exra fruit is useful for those very personal gifts, (do not forget, with each type you can, to set aside a few jars for this purpose). What a joy it will give you at gift time to wrap them in attractive cellophane or other papers and present these goodies to those who are ill, to the lonely or to other very intimate friends.

This tents fying hope had culminated on the night when he reached the blue door. . . And now he had gone. Not to live a fugitive's ex- istence but to win his freedom, to cone back to this house a nor- mal man, with work to do like other men. From the hour of Duncan Hun- ter's peaceful departure that morning Bertha was never again to be inose than a Ioyal old ser- vant who had had enough of lone- liness. She had held the fort. As for Elaine Chalmers, 'she spent a restless day. John's in- difference to her, his criticism of her conduct infuriated her. She trembled when she thought of him. Standing' before her mir- ror that day she renewed her vow to conquer hint, "That girl's the cause of it!" she thought angrily. Well, defeat could be turned into victory if you went about it properly. She'd use the little tramp as a' means of reaching john McNeill. "I'11 be sympathetic," she decided. "I'll join the search." Softened by Lamplight She watched for John to return home. Dusk was falling when his ear turned into the driveway and she saw him get out and go into the house. :Elaine quickly slipped into a coat and ran across the lawn. He opened the door at her ring. "John," she said in a soft husky voice, "is there any news of her?" The girl's sympathy reached him, as a woman's sympathy will reach any man. Be believed her to •be as repentant and content- ed as she looked, "Sit, down," ,b Urged.

There was a heady, provocative perfume about her that no man could ignore—loveliness at sev- eral dollars an ounce. All that had seemed too bright and brittle about her in the morning was softened now by the lamp light, just as her voice was softened by her own intent. Elaine said urgently, "Tell me all you know, John. I've been ra- ther a little beast. Will you find her, do you think?" "I believe I will," he answered eagerly. "We're on the trail. A Cleveland detective agency check- ed alI the hotels and lodging hous- es—especially the cheap ones -- but there wasn't a trace.

It happens the garage owner had to take the man's check for the work and hadn't yet cashed it. - Sege wick's address was on the cheek, too." "Was she with hire?" Elaine asked. "We think so," John respond- ed. "The garage people say the woman in the car was the man's wife, That was brought out when they tried to raise the money be tween them to pay for the job, 'Che girt with them seemed to be a stranger they'd picked up. The description of her tallies --e" "'They've Found tier" The telephone rang. John ex, cused himself hastily to answer it. Elaine could not hear What lie said, but she stlsptccted that he was speaking with a detective ",Weil?" she asked when M Ipeid sat down beside her again. He said, in an elated voice. "They think they've found her: They've located the Segwicks. The Segwicks admit picking up such a girl and taking her in to Cleve- land, They said she was broke and they got her a job, working as a maid` for some woman who owns a beauty shop taking care. of ' the woman's kids. They'll know in half an hour if she's the girl." Elaine thought, "So he's found her! 'Well, it's better this way. He'd have been obsessed about her if she'd gotten' away. Men are like that. He inhht bring her back here to the Hunter house, To me. He must see us together; that's my only chance."

Walls of House Made From Fruit Once we considered the farm merely as a source of food pro- duction, but 133 raw materials other than food are manufactured from farm produce. Altogether faros produce alncst 400 non- food articles. In addition to milk and meat and hides, cows give us grease which goes into anti -freeze mixture need in cars during win- ter, and into dynamite. From corn we get the sizing for the backs of carpets, adhesives, ray- on fibre, wallboard, tanning ag- ents and other prcducts. Fruit skins are pressed into wallboards, the seeds from' grapes go int soap and lubricants, and bees do their bit, for beeswax appears in candies, polishes and cosmetics.
