Miles Pencarrow did not die, He made a slow recovery, and long weeks and months elapsed before he again walked with his swinging stride, or his voice boomed out in court. When Miles was pronounced out of danger the weight of anxiety lifted from the family and the tense at- mosphere relaxed. A mild diversion vas caused by the approaching con- finement of Erena. "Where is your mother?" Miles asked Genevieve one afternoon. You can count of ROYAL YEAST C E'S for these light, tasty breads, buns and coffee cakes This crusty white loaf tastes as good as it looks!

"How is Frena?" he asked. "A bit scared, Aunt Hester is com- ing tonight. Poor Nell looks like a frightened rooster. You know that smug professional manner he has ac- quired; it's got its feathers ruffled, Miles smiled faintly, but there was no rebuke for her levity, For 24 hours even Miles felt that he had ceased to hold the centre of the stage as invalid -in -chief, while the mothers—a term which lumped together Norah, Kitty and Hester — talked wisely in whispers and drunk endless cups of tea. "What's the betting?" asked Kelly, wao had come In from the Hutt. Genevieve grinned. "My money is on a nut -brown boy," When Norah heard that it was a girl with red Bair she drank three large glasses of champagne in an ec- stasy of relief, and stayed in bed with a sick headache next day. Hester had hidden her anxiety be- neath her accustomed quiet, but her joy was great when she saw Erena with, a tiny daughter, who had inher- ited her appearance from old Mat. thew Pencarrow. "When are you coming back?" Kel- ly asked Genevieve. "The place is like a pigsty," "Why don't you beat old Kate over the head and make her clean it up?" "Fattier is getting on all right now," Kelly was not given to making an impassioned plea, Genevieve shook her head, "I'll have to stand by a bit longer." Kitty and Robin were frequent vis- itors at Pencarrow House on the Terrace, but in that family inter- change there was little chance of privacy. Winter was fast settling in and life centred indoors round the fires. Some one of the numerous group was always prowling in and out, and Kitty seemed never far from Robin, The adoring, indulgent another kept close, and the intensity of her anxiety where Robin was con- cerned was almost pathetic., Her whole life and to hopes cen- tred ve and in him.: Not for herself, but for Robiir..ebtwould have faced any sh_e_.. az,.csza-..• thdre7 teas 'aaie nrig"tiragedy in her eyes; the'fear of losing him. It was not until Miles was conval- escent and the doctor ordered him off to Sydney and the Blue Mountains to avoid the winter that Genevieve and Robin again faced their problem. "We will have to wait, Robin. He, is taking mother and me with him. Perhaps if I see a chance I May be able to pave the way." In the bracing air of the Blue Mountains, in the enforced quiet, Miles regained his health, He soon wearied of the role of invalid and his mind searched about for occupa- tion. He wondered how things were going at the office, He became fret. ful at times, particularly on wet days. "I ought to be getting back," he began. "Why not write to them? I'll do it for you," said Genevieve. "I'm not fast, but I can do shorthand a bit It will be good practice for us both, It will ease your mind and get up my speed. Come on, try me.' Out of this grew regular morning sessions at which Mlles dictated long, detailed and very aggravating budgets for the office. Genevieve rapidly improved with practice, and her father -was delight- ed at the intelligent interest and TO ALWAYS GET FAST PAIN RELIEF Get tin of 12 tablets or economical bottle of 24 or 100 at any druggist's.

Only the fact that he felt himself di- rooting the office personally, through from a distance, reconciled Miles to the long absence,. Peter had settled :down in the of- fice, but as he still had the ~.hurdle of matriculation ahead, after two fail- ures, and took scant interest in, the work, it was quite evident that be would not justify his father's hopes. Maisie Kite, as Peter had said, had accepted an offer to join William- sons, and her first public appearance as a professional was an occasion for much comment. She had a minor part and appeared in tights, "Have you seen Maisie Kite in tights?" Norah was profoundly shocked and Kitty mildly caustic, "But why, Mother?" asked Gene- vieve. "You've seen dozens of girls,!, in tights—in pantomime and musical comedy." (To be Continued.) What Is Read.

He.ruled that dog going in orderly fashion to tate butcher shop to get his daily ra- tions, according to his reguiat cus- tom cannot be declared to be wan- daring at large. Under this ruling, a charge against one John Riddoek of 'violating a city by-law was dismiss- ed. Riddock admitted his dog was ab- out a block from his house without being under immediate restraint. He ea laiued however, that the 12 -year. 01‘4 Airedale was in the habit of go- ing daily to a nearby butcher shop Per a bone and on the occasion cited 'a'. -Wednesday afternoon, the dog for- gbt about 'the butcher shop being closed for the half holiday and was standing barking at the door when observed by the police constable. Snob a dog could not be described as ' andering at large," the court held. Il.e was in lawful pursuit of his bus - X• iiJess and might 'be described as a r1irposeful dog. i"You might warn him about the early closing bylaw," the magistrate advised Riddock, a remark which says the report was greeted .with laughter, But why? .An intelligent dog would soon re- alize that his butcher shop had two "Sundays" a week, and being a pur- poseful and orderly dog, would act accordingly. Undoubtedly on this occasion he was not inciting his butcher to a breach of the Wednes- day closing bylaw. He, as itis mas- ter explained, just forgot. Even hu- mans do that, as witness the ap- pearance of a tin of pork and beans for Wednesday evening dinners. :Women Should Be Drafted For War Cleveland—Amelia Earhart, noted aviatrix, believes women should be drafted for war just the same as men.

And he has helped many in solving their personal problems. See his invitation to you following this week's article,) —0— Mrs. L. 11. writes as follows: "I am a widow with two children, and', have been corresponding with a man from the West. He wishes to marry me, and although I have never seen him, his letters are so pleasant that I find myself drawn to him. He is', married, bat has not lived with his wife for some years, and offers to get a divorce if I accept his offer of marriage. I feel that I should re- marry, because I am still young, but I naturally don't want to make a mistake. My first marriage wasvery happy, and my husband left me a substantial sum of money. Any help you :care to give me in showing what you think my correspondent is real- ly like will be welcome." I ani sorry that I cannot be overly - optimistic about your chances of making a really favourable marriage with the man who is writing to you. He is not generous—he is, as a matter of fact, of rather a narrow viewpoint; not really broadminded. Ile is likely to get very irritable,- if not bad tempered and whilst a lot of us have that little trait allied as it is in this case with narrowness of mind it shows that this man is !, not easy to live with. Ha is rather changeable, too. He will be inconsistent, not at all stable, temperamentally, but fickle in this moods. It would .be difficult to understand hili at times. Another characteristic that stands out is this man's vanity. He ex- presses this in his letter to you when he remarks; on the number of lady ;friends that he has had, and, whilst he is .endeavouring to convey a sub- file compliment to you, in that . he prefers you to all the others, this also • shows conceit. And °his hand - Writing bears this out very clearly. I mentioned that he is not very generous. I would go further and say that he is economical and cautious to the point of parsimony. As regards yoitrseif, your writing shows that you have a rather emot- ional nature, you are quick to feel joys and sorrows, and possess a marked capacity for affection. Yours is essentially a nature that needs company. There is nothing of the cold or aloof type about you. You are ardent, lovable, spontaneous — like lots of fun, and have a liking for being "on the go". You are still young, and I certain- ly agree with you that marriage would be an excellent thing for you -.-provided that you get the right sort of partner. Your previous hap- py choice has given you a standard that it may not be easy to parallel. But I have no doubt that the op- portunity will again arise. In the meantime, I am sorry that I cannot advise you to accept the man whose citing you sent to lie,. without, at- 1east, taking an opportunity of e tecking up my summing up of his clhiarecter. —0-- Would 0—Would YOU like to have YOUR handwriting analysed?

FRIENDS OF THE CROW DENOUNCE EFFORTS FOR HIS EXTERMINATION (From the Chicago Daily News,) The Illinois Department of Con- servation is making war on crows. Its bombers boast of slaughtering 150,000 since the first of the year, and hope to kill 200,000 more by spring. When Mother Nature balanc- es her accounts with these violent conservationists they may not be so proud- She has a way ow demon- strating the wisdom of her own order that frequently has made her 1. human revisionists appear very foolish. There are two major counts in the indictment of the crow. He helps himself to the farmer's grain with an almost insulting bravado, and he kills the young of our lovely song,- birds. ong=birds.

But there is .soMetLf.c. to be said in mitigation df • 14• ox fenses. `'+1• Against his thefts of grain'siioul°O= be set his insatiable appetite' for: field mice and other small inamdials, for insects and cutworms: ' Onek authority declares that he "amply repays the farmer for what he tak- es by destroying the vermin in the fields!' Fewer crows, more mice and cutworms—so nature may take toll for man's interference. It is less easy to palliate the crow's criminal assaults on the nests of other, birds, but many ornithologists hold that murderous offense is rare—much rarer, prob- ably, than man's violence to mem- bers of his own species. Possibly the human race should be exter- minated — some pessimistic phil- osophers have suggested as much —but the majority is still opposed to a remedy so drastic. Generally the crow is conceded to be the most intelligent of birds. 'Captured when young he soon be- comes fearlessly familiar with hu- man folk. He is discriminating, picking whom he will for company, and raucously scolding those he dis- likes. Always he remains a rascal, a lovable rascal, cockily independent and impudently predatory. Only a mind insensitive to na- ture's moods could look unmoved upon the etched beauty of the scene when, as the setting sun hangs on the dark edge of the distant woods, the crows come cawing from the fields in flock formation to merge DRWERNET'S Pov DER FOR HOLDING TIGHT No slipping or slid- ing—no clicking when you use this grand powder that most dentists pre- scribe --it's a joy to all users and is the largest seller in the world—leaves no colored, gummy taste —all drug stores. with the mystery of the lengthen• ing shadows, Some of us would spare them for the sake of that thrill.
