(Continued from fast week!
"Out of circulation." she an-
swered truthfully, and was glad she
did not In,:e to tell a lie to a man
who was :(',out to die. "It will never
tempt anyone else again."
"In the ocean?" His voice was an
angry croak and honey realized
that, had lie been able to reach her,
he probably would have choked
the life from her "ody. Even know-
ing that he could not more to harm
her, she still had a wiht desire to
push back from hint.
"That's as good an answer as
any," she told hint.
He gave a rasping Iaugii 1;rat was
ugly -to hear and she covered her
ears for a seaoac, to ltsut it out.
Then he spoke again.
"Too bad your friend Brewster
couldn't know that you stole the
stone from Mrs. Sylveste*. 1 am
sorry now I didn't tell hint that
night before 1 bit him over the
stead."
"Oh!" honey sucked in her
breath painfully a, site understood
what had happened to Dan in the
apartment. Then she said: "He
knows. 1 told him. I. trent there
to give hint the diamond." There
was pleasure in being able to admit
that knowledge to foe even in his
critical condition.
There star a 1,a -p front hfin, both
of surpri,e and pain. Ile waited to

"Are you !n great pain. Joe?" site

"Pam, b-!' lie hissed from be-
tweell closed teeth, gritting back
the agony from within, Honey re-
coiled as if he had struck her, so
Jilted with hatred were the words.
"I'm done for 'nd you know it.
Bet you're a fool if you think you
can get away with double-crossing
Joe Danburne."
"How dict you find out I took
'the diamond, Joe?"
"13y the only clue the police had,"
"What was it?" Her heart stood
atilt with fright, If Joe had guessed,
the law might do the same thing.
For a long time he did not say.
anything and Honey was beginning
to wonder if he were dead, when he
spoke again with new strength in
his voice.

"A black button with a chip out
of its side. I told you the last time
you wore that black suit to lunch•
son that one of the buttons had a
piece out of it, And you laughed
because I noticed such a small de-
tail, You lost that button when
you stole the purse from Mrs. Syl-
vester, Honey. It pays to remem-

thought you were on the level."

a thief and never have been." She
steeled herself to go on. "I never

1 wanted to get that diamond, and
through you the path was opened.

iter voice to impart the other
bit of news she wanted to tell hint.
"You see, Joe, I lore Dan Brew-
ster, and I have for a long time,
but he didn't know it."
"It doesn't matter now wilo you
love." He spoke just above a whis-
per and Honey had to lean forward
to catch his words. "You won't
live to marry anyone." His words
sounded final, as thought he knew
i* for certain.
Honey was out of his line n1
focus, but she ahook her head in de-
nial• not realizing that he could not
see her.
"No, I'm not going to die. Joe.
I'ni not even hurt, The crash shook
me up a bit and knocked me out
for a few minutes. But I am all
right now."
She could see Art's tall figure pac-
ing to and fro on the highway,
impatiently waiting for a motorist
to come to their aid.
Joe took up his end of the conver-
sation as if he had not heard her
word of denial about her death.
"There were two things in the
world I wanted above all else be-
cause I love beauty. The Sylvester
diamond and you. I can't have the
diamond now. You saw to that. But
I can take you with ole." A -gur-
gling sound escaped his throat. It
sounded like he was choking. Tears
came faster to Honey's eyes and she
wrung her hands helplessly as she
sat near him, watching.
He struggled hard for a breath
and got it. Then with great effort,
he moved his body slightly. His
head turned to face her and she was
glad of the darkness that !lid what
might lie in his eyes at the moment.
As they faced each other there in
the darkness, a silence seemed to
settle over the earth and not a
sound came thorough the night. It
was so still that Honey could hear
her own heart thumping. When she
thought she could stand the quiet
110 longer, Joe spoke.
"You are very beautiful, I-Ioney.
But you are going to die," he said
and there was conviction in his tone.
"No. Joe. I'm all right," insisted
Honer'.
"You're going to die," lie repeated
and Itis voice was stronger now.
And then suddenly he lifted an arm
and a gun swayed toward her at
close range. She tried to move, but
too late. There was an explosion
and a spurt of fire as Joe pulled
the trigged.
Honey slumped over it: a ]reap on
t1t. ground as Art came running
up,

The Standards Of The Kingdom
Matt. 5:1-121 7:24-27.
Golden Text: Seek ye first the
kingdom of God, and his righteous -
nese. -;Matt. 6:33.
Most people trill agree that no
three successive chapters in all the
Bible are as significant and import-
ant as Matthew 5-7, IIere is the
manifesto of the King. He said, "I
carne not to destroy the law, but to
fulfill it." He did not conte to fulfill
the late as it had been misinter-
preted and applied by the Pharisees.
They had sought to keep the letter
of the law and still violate its true
meaning. Here Jesus restores the
lain to its proper nleanin6 and gives
examples to illustrate what He
means, Love is the perfect fulfill-
ment of the perfect law.
The beatitudes with !which ;the
manifesto opens aflirm that those
who follow God's plan are happy.
The Greek word translated "bless-
ed" is in some versions translated
'•happy." Front the time •1n indi-
vidual begins to turn away from sin
to God, he receives a pleasure of
happiness. Tltis happiness increases
and i, characteristic of the Chris-
tian's life, sustaining him even a hr:,.
reviled and 1514513, accused.
The sermon closes with a parable,
The person who hears and does the
sayings of Jesus is compared to a '
man who built his house noon a
rode, The house withstands the
storm, nut the one who hears and
fails to do the _ sayings 'of Jesus is
like the man who built on sand. 'l'!te
house collap,es in the storm, Blow-
ing the teaching of Jest's is not sufli-
cient. We must obey.
Ile !who tales the way of the
Kingdom is freed from worry. "Seek
ye first the kingdom of ,God, and his
righteousness and all these things
shall be added unto you." "'These
things" are those of which you hate
need. Among the other precious
gents of truth in this sermon on the
mount is the golden rule, "Therefore
all things whatsoever ye would that
Wren should do to you, de ye even so
to then."

"I've been a good mother, tried
to make it as easy as possible for
her. She works during the day, and
I keep the child, do her laundry,
and accept very little money for
everything,
"I've talked to her many times,
told her how wrong she is, in a nice
way. I've even tried to force her
to behave, but to no avail. My hus-
band (her stepfather) doesn't ap-
prove, and there's a constant quar-
rel at our house all the time. Bet-
ween the two they are killing me
by degrees. I cannot sleep until
site gets home, and I cannot take
It much longer.
"Shall I tell her husband? He is
one of the finest men I ever knew.
I don't want to hurt my daughter,
for in spite of everything, I still
love her with all my heart. All I
want is for her to live a good life
and he a good mother.

" fours is a harsh decision to

" To tell your daughter that she
* can no longer live with you unless
,r she behaves herself, and that if
a site doesn't intend to she must
* take her child and live elsewhere,
* sounds the epitome of cruelty.
* Yet it may come to that. So long
* as she knows her child is cared
* for, she feels free to live her own
* life. Living alone with the baby
may awaken her to her respon-
* sibilities, and force her to become
* a stable and dependable moth; .
* No one can know until she tries
* it.
* If you think her husband,
through his knowledge of Iter as
* his wife, can help you with any
* suggestions, you might talk
a things over with I1itn. For him
* to approach her, however, in her
* present mood, would only alienate
* her further. • *- '
* You cannot continue living like
* this. You rare not so young any
* more that you can stand all this
* anxiety with impunity. The con-
* start turmoil in your hone takes
* its toll -and what would happen
* to you all if you break down?
* I think you should tell her,
* firmly, that you will have to make
* a change unless she calms down:
* It will be hard to do, but it may
* be the best thing for her in the
* long run.

Sometimes a loving mother can
make things too easy for her chil-
