She was with him only a few short hours, didn't even learn his last name, but when she returned to the city she realized she loved him. Months later, at a rummage sale, she bought a handbag in which she found $50. The bag was marked with the former owner's initials and address and although Sheila's fam ly was poverty-stricken, she return- ed the money. The house to which she went was that of Judge McCann and while she was there, in walked Peter McCann. Peter and Sheila met secretly the next day in an old book room of a library to which Peter had access. Peter told her he loved her, but was to marry an- other girl, Gertrude Keane, who lived with the McCanns. When they tried to leave the library, they found themselves locked in. Making their way over several roofs in a snow- storm, they descended to what ap- peared to be a studio. Two young men, bootleggers, who addressed each other as Ken and Inky, sud- denly confronted them. One had a pistol. They forced Sheila and Peter into an automobile, then into a truck and hours later they were taken into an old isolated farm- house. After a few hours sleep, Sheila found her way to the kitchen and prepared dinner for her five captors. Left alone with Sheila, Ken explained that she and Peter had shown up in the studio when he and his men were afraid of detec- tion and for that reason they had had to bring them along. They talk- ed of their mothers, and of other "1 mean that they haven't got anthing on me. I never pulled a gun on anyone," he said. "I carry one; that's all righ:. But 1 don't "get into the rackets. I just think things out for the boys, and then Renn and. I talk 'em over." "You're the brains of the organ- ization," Sheila observed mildly, re- calling another favorite phrase of young Sig, the vice president's son._ "I don't know whet you call it," he said, offended. "I should think," Sheila mused aloud, "of course I don't know.

"And what could they do to him when they did get him?" Ken asked. "Oh, leave it to them, they'd man- age that!" Sheila assured hien with a laugh. Shortly afterward, when the men returned, and the kitchen became suddenly filled with the odor of their drying boots, their pipes, their un - 'washed bodies and unwashed cloth- ing, Sheila felt almost unbearably tired and stiff and sleepy. It was Ken who briefly suggested that she take possession of a very small room off the kitchen; perhaps once a servant's room, or an old grand- father's room but furnished with only a desolate -looking iron bed like thosq in the larger room. "L&,y down in there," Ken said. "It's warm from the stove, and no- body'll bother you." Sheila gathered some blankets, made hekself as decent a bed as she could, loosened her gown and took off her shoes, and gratefully suc- cumbed to the stupor of sleep that had been drugging her all day. She closed her door, but she could hear the voices in the kitchen, hear the shuffling of the men's feet, the creaking of the old rocker. Gradu- ally these sounds blended and faded, Loomed loud again, and were gone. She slept until winter sunshine, striking through the dirty, uncurtain ed farmhouse window, sent a bril- liant glitter from the snow about the discolored walls of the little kitchen chamber. Yesterday's experience of thawing and limping, yesterday's brief, un- refreshing toilet preceded a kitchen breakfast, but even then the„hright promise-'oe--47,0- fieri-m',arle. Sheila?e heart lighter, and when ken said lazily, over his coffee: 'Well, you folks ought to be home about eight o'clock tonight," she felt that she could have danced for joy. We got to dig out of here, first," he observed. And after the meal, when Sheila would have fallen upon her obvious task of clearing the kitchen, he said, "Let' all that go, Sister, and get out here for a white. It'll do you good!" "Think there's really any chance of our getting away from here to- day?" Peter seized an opportunity to ask her sourly. He looked pallid and untidy, his hair tumbled, his clothing disheveled. "Well, certainly!" she answered brightly. "Well, I don't," he mumbled in a gloomy voice. Ken rejoined them with an old coat and thick gloves for Sheila, who also seized a fire shovel. - The truck that had brought them to the lonely old farmhouse in the hills was bedded deep in snow; the men were digging busily about it. Sheila and Ken began to clear some sort of track for it about the cor- ner of the barn that had hidden it, down past the house and so to the road. Handling her shovel, flinging the snow about, breathless and laugh- ing, the girl worked enthusiastical- ly if with small results. She and Peter and Ken shouted at each other in the invigorating sunshine as they dug. "You own this place?" Peter asked. "I never seen it before yesterday" Ken answered. "Then who does own it?" "1 don't know," the man said. "One of the boys found it a while WAKE Mk P LIVERBILE— And You'll Jump Out of Bed in the Morning %Zarin' to Go The fiver should pour out two pounds of flctuid bile into your bowels daily.

QUITE A CHANGE If you are in the habit of serving the same desserts over and over again, people are bound to get tired of them but by changing an old fa- vorite and varying it by the addition of this or that, you have an entirely new dish. This trick of dressing up old standbys, not only gives you an- other dessert which will be welcom- ed by the fancily but marks you as a cook and keeps meals from becoming monotonous. There 'are so many different ways 'in which you can serve tapioca that it's a .shame not to try them all in succession because they are equally good. If you have been serving tapi- oca •cream plain or garnished, try this Coconut Cream Tapioca for a change. It 'uses the sante basis as plain tapi- oca cream but makes a new and ex- citing dessert with the addition of coconut. When you have tapioca and coconut, two of the most delicious and universally popular foods com- bined in a wholesome and nourish- ing baked dessert, well you have something!
