CHAPTER IX When she faced the girl inside her tiny living room, Virginia saw that she was distressed. Her lips quivered and she moved nervously across the room to the window, stood looking out a moment, then turned as if with a supreme effort. "Miss Ames, you're not going to like what I'm going to say," she said in a flat voice. "You won't even like the way I'll say it. I -I an no lady. i know no fine words Virginia smiled.

She recalled Mrs. Warden's words, that Lanya was not a bad girl but merely unfortunate. "Fine words are often dishonest words, Lanya," she said gently. "I'm going to be -honest," came the heavy reply. "What is it, Lanya" Lanya said. "It's about Phil Law- rence." "Phil-" Virginia's voice broke on the name. "Yes," Lanya whispered. "You see, I love him." "You -love him!" Her thoughts were thrown into sudden confusion. Steve Barron. Jim Randall. And now -Phil! "I'm not going to give hint up," the dark girl said. "Not for you.

What would you say was the most popular pickle of all? A New York expert claims that cauliflower is the prime favorite and says that if you doubt this, just lay out a plate of mixed pickles and see If the cauliflower doesn't disappear first. But before giving you the recipe, here are a few general hints on pickling. Even if you've seen them here before, they're well worth re- peating, just as a reminder. First, use the best vinegar you can procure; and unless it's the cider variety, don't forget that the vinegars made today are about twice as'high in acetic acid as those of 20 or 30 years ago.

"He feels bound by a promise -to marry you." Virginia stood up. She felt no anger, but only a furious desire to fight for her own. "And if I hold hint to his promise?" she demanded. "You don't believe me, do you?" Lanya said, She picked up some- thing ,front the table and held it out to Virginia. It was the cameo pin. "You recognize this? Of course you Cpl Do you want to know how h carne into my possession?" "I recognize it," Virginia said. "It was mine. It was taken from me during the stage holdup. I -I don't care how you came by it!" The partly open door creaked noisily on its hinges as .it swung wide. Virginia turned and saw Steve Barron standing in the doorway. He always seemed a threat to Virginia. and now with his grim face and glittering eyes he was more than a threat. He was danger itself. His voice came low but sharp, "Miss Ames may not care, Lanya- but 1 do How did you come by that cameo pin?" _ The girl shrank from him as he came into the room, her eyes wide and full of terror. She cried in her throat. "You-heardl" Steve Barron was before her. He reached out and seized her left wrist. "I know," he snapped. "You got that pin from Phil Lawrence - so it's he who has been stealing my money off the stagesl" "No, nol" cried Lanya, "Don't lie to mel" Barron said in cold rage. "You ungrateful little- " He broke off and suddenly struck her across the mouth with the flat of his hand, The blow flung Lanya against the wall, then she sank down in a sob- bing heap. Steve Barron swung about ant,; strode to the door. Lanya rose to her knees. "Steve! Where are you going?" He halted in the doorway, slowly turned, his face black and his eyes stormy. "To see Lawrence," he said savagely. "Nol".Lanya got to her feet, Her face was gray to the lips. "Steve don't! I'll do anything -anything in the world. I'll marry you, Steve-" "You're generous too late, Lan- ya," he told her, The girl drew a sharp breath. "Steve, if you do what's in your mind, I -I shall tell Jim Randall what I know about you!" Virginia watched Steve Barron's face with alarmed eyes, Fear played briefly across it, then was replaced by something that was cruel and deadly. "No," he said. "No, you won't," He walked from the house then and Virginia, going to the door, saw him striding toward the big, false -fronted building of his gam- bling place, Lanya Correy came and stood trembling at her side, "He'll do ill" tate dance hall girl cried hysterically, "He'll kill Phil!" Virginia turned quickly, fighting down fear. "Lanya, hurry to the stable and have my horse saddled 1 need only five minutes to change to riding clothes!" "Where are you going?" 'To warn Phil!" Virginia flung back over her shoulder, Site was already hurrying across the dusty, sun -blasted street toward : Sarah Warden's house. (Continued Next Week) if you use some of mother's or grandmother's recipes, you may find your pickles a bit tart. Second, use pure salt, not the table variety, as thelatter some- times contains carbonates or bicar- bonates to prevent lumpiness, and isn't as good for pickles as the other. Utensils made of enamelware, aluminum or stainless steel are OK for pickles. Those of copper or galvanized zinc aren't, as there may be harmful reactions between the metal and the acid or salt. And to really sterilize your jars and lids, scrub them in hot, sudsy water and, just before packing with the hot pickles, boil for 15 to 20 minutes. Now, after that lengthy preamble, we come to PICKLED CAULIFLOWER 3 medium - size heads cauli- flower 1 quart small white onions 1 cup salt 1 tablespoon mustard seed 1 tablespoon celery seed 1 teaspoon whole cloves 2 sticks cinnamon, broken 2 quarts white vinegar 214 cups sugar itethod: Separate cauliflower into flowerets.

"Two years ago, he -started: being unfaithful: to Mother. We told ` her, but Daddy talked her out of it and she believed hits. Ever since, he has had one affair after an- other. He seems to feel no shame that . we know it. We have agreed among us not to tell Mother, ""Is it usual to expect men in their 50's to trifle? "As a mother, ours can't be beat, She has had more thanher share of work and trouble. She's never had any of the nice things other mothers get, except what we give . her. Will you give tis some idea what to do? R, J." * The kindest thing you can do * for your mother now is to shield * her from the knowledgeof your * father's unfaithfulness, and 511 * her daily life with the comforts * and pleasures she deserves. Don't let a day pass without * a telephone call from some of * you. Take her for unexpected * outings with your children, for * frequent drives, and to movies * and concerts this fall. When * something special comes to town, * buy tickets for her and one or * two of her choice friends, and * ask her to take them to dinner * at your expense. Send her of * for short visits to out-of-town * friends or her family. And do get * together and buy her new fall * clothes, and a permanent, and * see that she has some spend- * ing money of her own. Encour- * age her to be active in her church, * and other groups, so she will * enlarge her acquaintance, * She will almost renew her * youth in the knowledge that her * children and grandchildren still * need her, that she is important * to then as an individual. Your * love and your thought for her * will go a long way toward dim- * ming the memories of her earlier * difficult days. * In these arrangements, include * your father often enough to calm * any suspicions she may have * about him. * Often a married man in his * 50's or 60's grows bored with * his lot, is tempted to risk a last * fling before old age settles upon * him, and brings shame and ser- * row to those who love him most, * Many a wife feels the same urge, too, but she is more apt to think * first of her responsibilities.
