SYNOPSIS
Here we see a group of young Peo-
ple carried on the tides of youth,
Young Kelly Pencarrow finally settles
down on the Pencarrow farm, witb
Genevieve his cousin as housekeeper
who is in Love with her cousin Robin
Herrick. Cousin Neil Macdonald be-
comes engaged to Erena Joicey-Goff.
Peter Pencarrow is showing interest
in Maisie Kite, a typist,
"Quite tamed!"
Potty scratched his chin, "Almost!"
he added with a wink.
"She's a damn' fine girl, Jessie,"
said Kelly. "Tapuwal proved that."
"I'm not a sentimental sort, Ke11y,
but there aren't many like Jessi.e and
I'm prepared to settle down and be a
good lad for the rest of my days when
she marries me,"
"When is that to be," Kelly inquir-
ed.
a slap on the back expressing his con-
gratulations.
"Some time next spring."
"All set!"
"I'm buying a ring over here.
When I go backahe news will be out."
"You dont expect` us to all dead
with surprise," gad Kelly.
Well, hardly. But the Missus in-,
lists on doing it properly; the real
Pencarrow touch; notice in the pap-
ers, and letters to all the aunts and
cousins."
"I know."

"Not yet, Nothing on my horizon."
"Don't you ever feel you'd like a
wife and youngsters—squawking lit-
tle devils, but good fun?"
"Fun, you can them? I ,don't know
that Father and Mother regarded us
as much fun. And we've been a bitter
disappointment since we have grown
up.»
"Now, if we have any children, I'm
going to let them have a free hand. I
think your father was wrong; dead
wrong. If he had let you alone you'd
probably have been—"
'Never! I'd have been what I am.

"But you are content at last,"
"Am I?" Kelly said it as though it
were a question that often troubled
him and for which he had no answer.
"Ag'en't you? You ought to be,"
said Potty, looking around.
"I know I ought to be, and I am,
up to a certain point, But I'm beginn-
ing to think I need a spur. Wheu
things go well I am inclined to slack
it. Ten years of this and I'd be a lazy
old man, past caring, and resenting
any effort to shift me."
"Go on; what rot!"
"I mean it. I can feel it; a sort of
fatty degeneration of the will."
"What you need is a wife that
nags. She'd keep you moving."
"I'd wring her neck!" and Kelly
laughed,
"Any sign of Genevieve getting
married?" asked Potty.
Kelly turned apprehensively,
"Genevieve! Good lord no!"
"Or Robin?" Potty persisted.
"I don't think Robin will marry for
a long time. His mother worships him
and would spoil him if he were that
kind. But' he isn't at least, I don't
think so. But she wants to keep him
with her, and I see'signs of her warn-

his words,
CHAPTER 13
On a wet Sunday in September a
message reached Kelly that Michael
had been injured. His horse had put
a foot into a rabbit hole while he was
out among the sheep in the Clark, and
fell, rolling on him. Several ribs were
broken, his shoulder bruised, and
they were not yet certain if there
were internal inj'rries, He had been
taken to the hospital at Featherston.
Michae: might be weeks in hospit-
al, and Gentry was in ?,ukland and
could not get back for some days,
Iieliy saddled his horse and turned
up the familiar road that led to Duf-
field, Genevieve watched him go, a
great joy in her heart. Kelly was go-
ing back to Duffield. He had said lit-
tle; just that Michael had been hurt,
and he had better go out and look af-
ter things. There was no sign that it
was more than an ordinary journey,
As he rode in the drenching rain,
the violent squalls buffeting him his
heart was beating at a smarter pace.
He was going back to Duffield. It
was all quite simple and natural. No
one had told him to go; no one had
asked or urged him to take Michael's
place, It was just the most ordinary
thong in the world,
The early dark was falling when
Kelly carne in sight of Duffield
Through an oblique veil of rain he
saw the homestead standing solidly
amidst the trees. Yes the poplars had
bent before the wind, but he liked
thein so. I.'ow long? Nearly ten years
since he had planted thein—nearly
ten years since he had left Duffield
with Michael that morning to wel-
come Ella and Gentry back from their
honeymoon to attend the party Miles
was giving for them.
As he drew near and saw the fam-
iliar sweep of hills, the swamp lands
near the lake, and heard the bleating
of the young lambs, his mind went
back to those early year's when be had
been ;so happy there,' so ambitious, so
recklessly experimental, trying to re-
make it all in a night. Now he had
sobered down. His present peaceful
existence had drugged that youthful
spirit, or perhaps it had overspent it-
self.

Foot Ills Bring Wrinkles s
So Toe Beauty Mari
"I have seen rna?xy a furrow h
tween the eyes of.,'a lovely wom\tn
caused entirely *constantly acliiri'g
feet," a doctor recently remarked. '
"Your best basmeticians realir,s
this fact," he continued. "It explaiis
why many beauty salons not only; a
giving pedic massages to their ell
tomers before proceeding with facia'
treatments, but also4'why they oftefl
give sensible advic'd'in regard 'to the
need for properly fitted shoes."
Another well-known authority
on foot health, pointed out ',the
necessity for careful bathing of tits
feet and the value of exercising their
muscles regularly. Still another
speaker deplored high heels and urg-
ed all women to make sure their
shoes really f:t.
These theories on correct care of
the feet were backed up by sound
facts based on carefully compiled
statistics. In addition, a good many
helpful rules on care of the feet
were passed out. Here are a few of
them:
Feet should be scrubbed and rinsed
as carefully and frequently as any
other part of the body.
Cotton and woolen socks absorb
more moisture than silk ones and
should be worn for active sports and
other occasions when the feet per-
spire freely.
Along with setting up exercises to
keep the figure trim and, supple
every girl should do foot exercises to
strengthen her arches and ankles.
And she never should wear high
heels for walking on those days
when she has to stand up for hours
at a time. •

Honey varies , in colour and flav-
our so that there is no difficulty in
finding a honey to suit every taste.
On account of this variation of char-
acteristics, honey is classified and
graded according to its colour and
quality, The colour classes most com-
monly used as "White," "Golden,"
"Amber," and "Dark," Colour, how-
ever, does not affect the food value
of honey. From the nutritional stand-
point, all colours have equal value,
but the flavour of the darker colour-
ed honeys is generally much strong-
er than the lighter coloured kinds.
The quality grades of honey are Nos.
1. 2. and 3, indicating texture, den-
sity and flavour. The lighter coloured
and highly graded honeys are espec-
ially adapted for table use and as a
rule are more expensive than the
Clark or low graded honey, a fact
that must be taken into consideration
by the buyer when purchasing honey
for cooking purposes. The lower
grades of honey are equally as good,
as the higher grades when used as
a substitue for sugar in cooking, but
when delicate flavours are desired
be sure to use light honey. To the
bee -keeper who produces honey for
his own use, value is of secondary
importance, so that in addition to
substituting honey for jams, jellies,
and marmalades, he is in the position
of being able to use honey for sugar
in cooking with most pleasing re-
sults.

you to take advantage of this oppor-

My remarks in some earlier ar-
ticles, regarding the extent to which
Graphology can help in forming your
future, have inspired a number of
readers to write and ask for more de-
finite information on this point. This
seems an opportune time -for me to
do so, as it is the beginning of a
New Year,
What you aye, and what you do,
depend to a large extent on your
character. Other things do enter into
it, such as education, environment,
upbringing, opportunities, and so on
—but these are all relative, and can
be influenced by one's character,
People with suifcient strength of
character can overcome all defic-
iences in these other angles, by ap-
plying themselves to tate task.•
Take two men, to llustrate my
point. One of them is strong-willed,
determined, persistent and persever-
ing. He,.makes up his mind to proceed
along certain lines in order to reach
a definite peak of progress. He has
the strength. of character to apply
himself and to keep on, even though
obstacles present themselves. He
may, at times, become a trifle down-
hearted, but it is merely a tempor-
ary feeling, and be reassures dtim-
self by calling on his self-confidence
and by renewing his efforts.
The other man is indefinite, vacil-
lating and weak, He has little or no
will -power, cannot make up his mind
what he wants to become, nor how to
go about the work of getting some-
where. He procrastinates—hopes for
something to turn up, but doesn't
make the necessary effort to achieve
things for himself. Then things turn
out badly, or he cannot see anything
in the future to hope for, or to look

Which of these two men can rea-
sonably look forward to a better to

tai -gazer or fortune-teller to con
elude that the first :nar:-the one

Graphology can encourage each of

And it provides the man who is weak

To the extent that•it can help you

THIRTEEN -YEAR-OLD GIRL IS
ENGINEER ON SHORT RAIL-
WAY LINE IN AUGUSTA,
ARKANSAS
Joyce Short13, of Augusta, Ask„
and red-heade,d, bolds a place unique
among girls.
She le --of all 'things --engineer on
a railway.
The line, to be sure, only runs, a
mile, but it hat, like any other rail-
way system, directors, officers and
:stockholders. And it is ranked as
a regular road, too, the .U.S. Bureau
of Economies declaring it "is the
shortest railway of which we have
any record."
KNOWS HER BCISINESS.
So it is not an unuluai sight to
see, the young engineer chugging
along in her little locomotive pul-
ling its one coach, her hand on the
throttle, eyes glued to the tracks,
yanking every now and thea at the
well-worn whistle cord,
Commuters haven't a worry when
Joyce is at the controls. They say,
Tin fact, that there is a touch of
gentleness about the starting and
stopping of the train that seems to
be missing when a masculine hand
is at the brake controls.
But engineering runs in Joyce's
fancily. When the first locomotive
was purchased for the line in 1900,
her grandfather, John A. Short, was
the engineer: That first locomotive
bucked like a billy goat and the
people had a free show every time
it went through town.
In 1004 business grew to such pro.
portions: that a real railway coach
was purchased and three years 'later
Joyce's father, Earl Short, became
engineer on the line. He died in 1922
