"No â€" dearâ€" I see I must be brave for both of us. Listen, Malcolm, I am in very deep waters â€" I can't tell the truth â€" I can't â€" " "What! Then, Nan, if it's aa bad as all that â€" you must have a lawyer, • good one, at once. You must tell him everything." "But, listen, Maiâ€" if this will of Lionel's hold.s â€" I am penniless."

Jlalcolm, â€" why did I m.Trry that awful man? Oh, why did I?" "Wait a minute â€" why did you, Nnn?" She looked at him a long moment, with a grave regard, and then snid. "I can't tell you, M;ilâ€" I can't tell you, but, oh, I'm glad he's dead. There, I've said it, and I don't care! I'm glad, glad, glad! I couldn't have lived another day with him!" "Hush, dear â€" don't say such things. "Sit down and talk it over," he said, arranging a big cushion for her. "I'd like to be friends, Nan, if you can con- vince me you did-u't kill my father. You can't expect me to be friendly with you, otherwise." "Of course I didn't kill him," Nan said, "how ciin^you even imagine such a thing?" "You say that, but your face, your eyes, your whole 'expressions belies your words. Do you also deny poison- ing him â€" or are you only disc'airaing the shooting?" The hard, sharp, black eyes of the young man looked closely into her own, and there was something in his manner, in his effect, that repelled Nan so utterly she was scarce able to .speak to him. "J think," she said, slowly, "that I prefer not to discuss anything with you. I will refer you to my lawyer." Lionel Raynor gave a start. "A lawyer, have you one?" "I shall have, very soon. Meantime, you may wait for my answers to your questions." "Hoity, toity, is that the tone you're going to take toward me? Going to have a lawyer are you? And, pray, how are you going to pay him? Hon't you know you're practically penniless? But I suppose your friend, Mr. Fin- by, will be only too glad to pay â€" " But Nancy had risen and walked away. j At the doorway, she met Detective Dobbins, on 'ils search, as always.

"Indeed, I wouldn't tell you â€" why, Nan, he says terrific things about you and about Mr. Finley, and about everybody, even including Miss Tur- ner." "Eva Turner?" "Yes; that is, he didn't say any- thing definite, but I sort of gathered he thinks she's sly." "Never mind, Dolly, I'd rather you wouldn't listen to such gossip, but if you do, don't repeat it to me. Now, look out, dear, I'm going to destroy this little parcel. It's nothing of any value." Standing on the bank, Just above a small but turbulent waterfall made by the brook over a stony decline, Nan tossed the packet lightly into the foaming, bubbling cascade. Then without a backv/ard glance, and looking a little frightened, she said, hastily, "Come along, Dolly, let's go home." They climbed the bank and hastened back to Flower Acres. You won't nientio.i this episode, dear?" Nan said. "Of course not. You know I'll never do a thing you don't want me to, Nan. And beside, I know more things than that about the whole affair that I'm not going to tell." "Why, Dolly, what do you mean?" "Oh, nothing.

HOW TO ORDER PATTERNS Write your name and address plain- ly, giving number and size of such porch, hand him a chart, at the top of which is written the name of his yacht, the name of ten ports and the direc- tion in which his boat is to sail. Ports are represented by names written on inch squares of paper, placed in full view about the house. Each shipmaster must find the ports listed on his own chart. All start from the same dock at the same time, each captain sailing by the charted directions. As the ports are found the captain pins them to his chart. The first to complete the journey wins a prize. Before setting sail on the eighty- minute tour around the world, part- ners for the voyage must be obtained from the ship's log. The girls' names are written on slips of paper and placed between the leaves of a large book. Each boy is asked to open the book and turn the pages; the first name he finds is his partner for the voyage. For the world trip, long strips of paper are given out cut in the shape of real tickets. These strips contain as many numbers as there are places to be visited. Numbered cards inscrib- ed with a short phrase or bearing some object to represent various places of world interest are hidden about the house and in the yard. The city of Washington could be represent- ed by a card showing a picture of a basket of clothes with the vords "two thousand poun 's" written underneath. A piece of brown paper might repre- sent the city of Manila. Wherever a numbered card is found the partners guess the name of the place it repre- sents and write their guess opposite the corresponding number on their ticket. The couple first to complete the journey and bring in the most correct list of names for the places visited will receive the grand prize of the evening. Your party of tourists will want to visit Fortune Island, where a real mer- m.iid, dressed in billow."! of gre;n mos- quito netting, \-\\' tell each guest what his future holds. A couch in one cor- ner of the yard with a grass-banked tub of water at one side will make a good island. There can be a race home across the Atlantic. The green lawn is the ocean. With chalk draw circles here aid there across the lawn. These whito circles are islands. The contc."?tants then race from the far side of the yard to the porch. The one rule of the game is that every island must be touched in making the journey. Six bells is the signal calling the company to supper. Under the arch- way suspend six bells. Hang them so low that the guests cannot pass with- out stooping. Blindfold each person in turn as he enters the dining room and tell him to pass through the door without tinkling a bell. He will fiml this hard to do, but the vest of the party enjoy the fuii. .> Be Kind But Firm will prevent sunbu .- and a weather- worn look to your skin, but the hat will often prevent a headache from a too hot sun. There is a very excellent cream that you can buy from any good druggist or toilet-goods counter. It is the best of preventives for sunburn. When you get up in the morning, after you have bathed, you use the slightest film of this delicate cream all over your skin, wait a minute for it to take hold, and then dust your powder lightly over it. It takes scarcely two extra minutes in the morning to do this, and yet it will defend your skin from sunburn as few other things will. «â- The Powder to Use Jnme .t Address Of course, if you have already ex- posed your face and neck to old Sol, or you become burned because of an enforced stay in the sun, don't forget to have a good cleansing or cold cream handy so you car. anoint the hurt parts right away. I know a delightful talcum powder, too, that is particularly soothing to a burned skin, though it is better to let your cream do the first corrective work; then you can use your powder. And, speaking of powder, I wonder if you know a few little facts about using powder in summe.-.

Salts of Lemon In homos wnei'e there are children it is advisable to use a substitute for salts of lemon, as the real thing Is poisouou.s.
