"it haunts nic," he told her. "Es- pecially at night â€" out there." Hs gesture took in the de?^ert and the mountain bevond. He was smiling thinly. "t.s that why you have so many meaningless affairs?" Virginia ask- ed. "So many ?" then he laughed. 'You're thinking about that week three years ago," he said. "I was in love with you then," she said heavily. "kr\A you hate me now," he re- minded her. "No . . not any more." He flung away his cigarette and turned quickly to herl The pres- sure of his arms about her wai rough but gentle. "Virginia " She placed her hands against his chest. "Don't kiss me, Jim. There's gomething about you that frig-htens ttic â€" and attracts me. But I could never love you again." He still held her close. She was afraid he would kiss her, afraid though she wanted him to â€" wanted him to despite her love for Phil. Then her eyes saw a movement beyond him. He saw her startled look, and he turned. Then he dart- ed away from her, drove forward on his long legs, and laid rough hands on the half-naked Indian who had been watching them. He drove the Apache down to his knees with a blow of his fist, then talked to him in the Apache tongue. Virginia went and stood at Jim's side. Then, at a sign from Jim, he rose and darted away. ,fAnERN-4723 sizfcs H-so '1 lirce main pattern parts! You'll make it in a jifly, easily!

Steve Barron talked to him the day we went to meet Phil." Jim looked at her frowningly "Barron, eh?" he said. Then; "We better return to town." Long after, Virginia sat tn her darkened room looking down upon Santa Bonita's solitary street. She had undressed for bed but there was no capacity for sleep in her. Her thoughts were confused and racing wild. She had permitted Fim to disturb her tonight and she hated her weakness. Then she saw him below her in the street. There was no mistak- ing him. He was more than a man in uniform; the way he carried him- self marked him. She saw him hesi-« tate. Her heart pounded. If he were coming to her. But she saw she was wrong. His hesitation ended. She saw him turn and walk to the house across the street. Lanya Correy's house. He knocked. The girl opened the door and he stepped inside. The door closed. Virginia turned from the window, bitterness in '^€t... Two hours ago he held her in Iris arms. Now he turned to a dance hall girl. CHAPTER IX. When Lanya Correy opened her door a sudden consternation trans- formed her placid expression, '^he appearance of an army ofiiccr there startled licr. Her first impulse was to close tlie door against him. But Jim Randall had Uic flat ot his hand against the panel. He not only kept her from closing liim out, deli!)eratclv pushed it wide. "I want to talk. Lanya," he said He stepped inside and closed the door behind him. He watclied the gir! move away from him. She went to tlie oppo- sfte side of tlie tal)le which stood in the center of the floor. Her face showed pale and frightened in the glow from the table's oil lamp. But hers was a pretty face. Tier skin fine and her lips full red. Her dark eyes had vast depths that doubtless had haunted many men. She stood wait- ing, nervously gripping her hands. Jim said finally, "Lanya, where did you get that cameo pin you are wearing?" The girl's hand darted to tlie pin at the neckline of her dress, cov- ering it. "1 â€" someone gave it lo me," she stammered. "Phil Lawrence?" She did not answer. "Do you know where he got it?" Jim asked. "I won't tell you anytliing!" Lan ya cried. "I don't have to!" • * * "No, you don't have to," Jim ad- mitted. "But you're frightened, and that answers me. You do know about Phil Lawrence." He watched her. wilt under his words. Then: "Did be tell you he got that pin in a stage hold-up? Did he, Lanva?" Thinly, "No. . . ." "And thai it belonged to Vir- ginia Ames?" Her eyes quickly flashed with an- ger. "That isn't true! It never be- longed to her!" Jim's voice ran on relentlessly. "He stole it from the girl who loves him, who promised to marry him. And he gave it to you for â€" " "No," chokingly. "No, ... He didn't give it to me. I'll tell you the truth. He came to see me while Steve Barron was away from Santa Bonita. He put his coat over a chair. When he was gone, I found the pin on the floor. Iâ€" I thought he brought it for me, but had for- gotten lo give it to me." Jim went around the table and faced her. "That's what I wanted to hear. Phil Lawrence and you are â€" friendly. I heard rumors of it. It was over you that Lawrence and Steve Barron quarreled." She nodded. "Steve Barron wants me to marry him. He hates Phil because â€" because I love him." She lifted her hands in a pleading gesture. "Please don't arrest him. He's not robbed anyone but' Steve Barron. And Steve Barron â€" " (Continued Next Week) Where The Tall Corn Grows â€" Carol l^olil, 17-year-old tarm girl, stands on a- ladder Init still fails to reach the top of an 11- foot cornstalk. Carol was crowned (|tieen of the Sweet Corn ^ Festival. AHN£ HIRST "Dear Anne Hirst: I've been married 10 years, have two children. For the past fou' years I've had to work to help out. and I am just about at the breaking point. (My sister is with the chil- dren during the day). "If my husband would act like a husband and a real father, I wouldn't mind at all. But he takes me so for granted! It is months sine* we've been out together, and 1 need amuse- . Blent more than I ever did. He shows no interest in the children, he only wants them out of the way when he is home. As for helping me, he never dries a dish nor helps with the house- cleaning. He says that is woman's stuff. "Tliere must be more to marriage thjn I am getting! Can you lielp me find it' Discouraged." All Work, No Play * I think you should tell your husband that unless your lile at home can be made easier, with occasional evenings out for fun, you will give up your position. That will mean less money coming in, and sacrifices which your husband must share, too. He will not welcome the idea. Yet something must be done. You are a young woman, in good health. But you will not continue to be, if you live like this with nothing better to look forward to. Your spirit will be crushed, your nerves give way â€" and then what will happen to your family? Your husband is not intention- ally unjust. He is a thoughtless man, and seems entirely self- centered. When a man's wife has lo go out to work, it is his part to share the responsibilities ot keeping up the home and training the children. He must see, too, that his wife gets the recreation she needs; she will be a better wife and mother for it. Try once more to explain this to your husband. Arouse his in- terest and pride in the children; plan their future together. Ar- range to spend part of the week- end as a family group â€" get to the park, go on a picnic, so that * he, gets to know his children as a * fatlier should. Houra like these * will draw you all closer, and * make for a warmer family life. * If you must give up your job, * at least you will be with the chil- * dren all day; and they will know * their mother better than they can ♦now. You can plan your routine '• so it will not be too exlvausting, * and you and they will have fun * together. It is not right that ihey * grow up without your com- * panionship and guidance. * Think this through, before you * talk with your husband. You two * are not enjoying marriage as you * should. If he will cooperate bet- * ter, he will gain by it, too. * * * Sometimes a wife, driven to desperation, has tcT take a stand. If you are at that point, tell Anne Hirst about it and let her help you tlirough. Write her at Box 1, 123 Eigliteenth St., New Toronto, Ont HOW CAN I? By Anne Ashley Q. How can I make an invisibl* cement suitable for mending glasa- ware? A. Melt a little isinglass in spirits of wine, enough to cover; add a very little water; warm gently over a moderate fire. When thoroughly melted and mixed, it wilt form a transparent 'iglue which will re-unite broken glass so firmly and nicely that the jointing will be scarcely perceptible. Q. How can I add a fragrant aroma to a room? A. Fill a bowl or vase about half- full of warm water, add a few drops of violet water or violet perfume, »d it will give a fragrant scent to the room. Q..How can I make a poultice for burns? A. Il is claimed that scrapea po- tatoes make a very cooling applica- tion for burns and scalds, changing the application frequently. Q. How can I cover scratches on dark-colored furniture? A. .Apply tincture of t.idine on a swab of cotton that is tightly fast- ened lo a lead pencil. After the re- touched area is dry, rub it over with furniture polish, and the scratches will hardly be apparent. CROSSWORD PUZZLE Acnoaa 1. Angry 4. Small Island t. Concealed 11. Take mil 11.

Itcfor* The Great Evangelist Two hundred years ago one of the world's greatest evangelists was awakening all England to the need for moral and spiritual regen- eration. John Wesley, founder of Methodivii, was preaching in the open air, gatliering converts into societies, and creating a band of lay preachers who, with himself and his brother Charles, endured intense persecution and privation. At that time large tracts of the countryside as vve know it to-day were wastes, forests, fens, and swamps. Cultivation and roads, as we tliink of them, barely existed. Most towns and cities were dark pits of pagan irtlquily. Every sixth house in London was a grog-shop. Swinging signboards promised to make one "drunk for a 4>enpy. dead drunk for twopence, with clean straw for nothing." It was in such a world that Wes- ley received the message 'Thou art not far from the Kingdom of God." He began to preach in the open air because nearly every pulpit in the church he so loved was closed to him. For over thirty years he travelled on horseback all over England, giv- ing the rein lo his steed and doing his reading and studying in the saddle to save time. Ignored Threats He rose at four in the morning and, through snow and storm, win- ter or summer, on days wet or dry, cold or hot, by bad roads, good roads, or no roads at all, he canter- ed onwards, preaching three or four times a day and travelling between fifty and eighty miles in twenty- four hours. Stoning and threats to burn down the houses where he stayed were common. On one occasion he said, "If the house is to be burned, let us use it while it stands." He would walk into the midst of threatening crowds and say, "Here I am. Which of you has anything to say lo me â€" yoti, or you, or you? To which have I done any wrong?" It was said of Wesley that he had muscles of whipcord, bones of steel and lungs of leather. â- Buth he suffered from many bodily ail- ments and once nearly died of con- sumption. At 74, while suffering from ague and fever, he rode sixty- three miles in a day and preached. Gave Wealth Away He ate sparingly, drank water, and lived on $150 a year, although he sometimes made $2,000 a year from his books. The surplus he gave away. He founded schools and dis- pensaries, distributed medicines, and found work for the poor. At Wesley's deal' there were in Great Britain over a hundre'd Methodist societies with some seventy - two thousand members. About the same number of societies existed in , America. To-day the whole Methodist family througTtout the world is estimated at well over nineteen million. Il is significant that John Wes- ley's constant prayer was, "Lord, let me not live to be useless." Two women were preparing to board the air liner. One of them turned to the pilot and said, "Now, please don't travel faster than sound. We want to talk." Modern Etiquej ' By Roberta Lee Q. What is the proper way to troduce a married woman to unmarried one? A. The unmarried woman is al- ways presented lo the married wo- man, as, "Mrs. Jones, may i present Miss Smith?" Q. If a bride-to-oe is in a position to give verbal thanks for a wedding present, is a written note unneces- sary? J A. Never; the "thank you'' note must be written, and as sooo' as possible. Q.
