It® was agreed that Lynne should follow him to London and see him there before he left; she had no passport, and it was agreed that she should leave from London two days later and meet him in Tehran. so within two hours of his arrival, Julian departed again. He had worked a revolution in Beaumont Manor, and left it in an uproar. Mrs. Blakemore, the widowed aunt with whom Lynne lived, was a deterâ€" mined little person. She regarded Juâ€" lian as a reckless, feckless person withâ€" out thinking him a hero as Lynne did.

And we‘ll beat him at is own rotten game!" "We will!" cried Lynneée. PORTRAIT OF "THE ENEMY" Then she suddenly became thoughtâ€" ‘ul. and with a look of doubt, and a slight flush in her cheeks, she took dswn a framed photograph from the mantelâ€"shelf and brought it to Julian‘s side. An inquiry as to whom he was in one of her letters to Julian had brought forth no reply; some slight selfâ€"conâ€" sciousness had prevented her asking again. "Of all the wild ideas you have put into Lynne‘s head I think this is quite the worst!" said Aunt Sophie, with her usual exaggeration. ‘"And I‘m certainâ€" ly not going to let her wander all over the Middle East with no one but you to look after her!" For all her efforts to appear annoyed, Lynne was quite sure that Aunt Sophie really wanted to go. But objecting as she pretended, to the whole idea, Aunt scphie objected still more to leaving in such a hurry. "Why this ridiculous rush?" said Your cousin Sylvia," said â€"Aunt Lynne arrived in London soon after ‘ nine o‘clock. Julian took her to het hotel.

All he knew was that Dr. Guthrie was lecâ€" ‘ turing that night at University College, ‘in Gower Street, between eight and | nineâ€"thirty. Lynne rang off. She would have to see Guthrie that day or not at all, as she was leaving early in the morning. Her best chance, she thought, would be to catch him at University College afâ€" he came out from giving his lecture. (TO BE CONTINUED)) There was no doubt that Guthrie had behaved very badly to Julian,. But people often thought better of their Should she herself be Ss0 hasty in arranging to g0o to Persia and fight Guthrie, when she had never made certain of his attitude towards However, by the time Lynne left forl town in the morning Aunt Sophie was uttering no mure protests, and dealmgi with everything in such an unhesitating and competent manner that Lynre was convinced Aunt Sophie was not at all sorry to have a holiday in Persia.

I told him to meet me at tenâ€"thirty this morning cutside Bond Street tube staâ€" tionâ€"but now, of course, I shan‘t be there. I wonder if you‘d go down and hand over these notes for me. He‘s a broad, redâ€"haired chap, and a very lowâ€"looking ruffian too, I‘m afraid. Smith is his name. Just tell him that Mr. Johnson sent you, and hand the money over." "Mr. Johnson?" querried Lynne. "Johnson is the fellow who put me in touch with this man Smith," Ormond explained glibly. Lynne had a hasty breakfast, and hurried out to make arrangements for her own and Aunt Sophie‘s passports to be vised for Persia. There were many people whom she would have liked to see before she left, but she forbore to ring them up, knowing how little time she had to get everything she needed. At tenâ€"thirty she drove up to Bond Street tube station in a taxi, to meet Julian‘s creditor, Mr. Smith. MAN WITH A BROKEN NOSE Mr. Smith was already there, and easily recognizable from Julian‘s deâ€" scription: his nose seemed to have been broken at one time or another, his jowl was blueâ€"black, and so were his hands. His hair was cut very close to his head, where it was visible below his cap. "Oh, I see!" said Lynne, though the matter was still a trifle confused in her mind. However it did not seem to be of much account, and she thought no more about it. Five minutes later Julian left for Croydon, en route for Western Asia. He did not take his cap off when Lynne approached him, but regarded her sideways, and replied to her out of the side of his mouth. "Â¥Yus," he said, warily. "I‘m Smith. That‘s me.‘ "Mr. Ormond couldn‘t get here himâ€" selfâ€"‘‘ began Lynne. "Mister ‘002?" the man arrested her, with a suspicious look. "I was told to bring you this from Mr. Johnson," said Lynne, cutting short her intended explanation. Even for a bargee, she thought, he was a vor? tough losoking fellow. 4 "That the cash?" said Mr. Smith, Icoking at the envelope which Lynne took from her bag. "Yes." She handed it to him, and with a quick, stealthy movement he slid it into his trousers pocket, and reâ€" marked: "If the cash is all right, it‘s all right with me!" And with this cryptic utterance, he slipped away into the crowd, leaving Lynne somewhat mystified by his beâ€" haviour. However had asked of bargees people.

Try The Advance Want Advertisements ‘After a busy morning, Lynne reâ€" turned to her hotel for lunch, and it was there that she came upon soimeâ€" thing that changed lightâ€"hearted enâ€" thusiasm for the proposed adventure inte something In one of the periodicals in the hotel lounge she found an article Dr. Phillip Guthrie. It was an obituary ncotice, and biographical sketch of Proâ€" fessor Shaley. Lynne read it sceptically, feeling that there was probably hypocrisy in every <tatement. Very little mention was made of the Persian expedition; only Professor Shaley‘s life and past work was reviewed. Her scepticism waned as she read. It was not to be convinced by the regret that underlay the quiet phrases of the article. It made Lynne think; and she began t wonder whether she had thought sufficiently before. Everything â€" had happened in such a rush of excitement. t aea" ny~ Guthrie standing. Feeling considerably sobered, it was not long before Lynne came to a deâ€" cision. She must see Guthrie before she started for Persia, and make sure that he was really determined in his shabby treatment of her brother. Five minutes later she was ringing Dr. Guthries flat. But he was not at home, and was not expected to until late that evening. * % There had been room e, "was always a very affected minx, and I‘m sure I shan‘t ge read it sceptically, feeling that s probably hypocrisy in every t.

A reminder is perhaps necessary here. Don‘t overâ€"indulge in sun bathing any more than in water bathing. Avoid midâ€"day sun. Don‘t expose yourself so long that you develop an uncomâ€" fortable sunburn instead of a healthy tan. If your skin is fair be particularly careful. Limit your first sun bath to fifteen minutes. Examine your skin the next morning. If a redness has developâ€" d stay out of the sun for the day and permit the first slight burn to set. By the next day it will be all right to try another fifteen minutes and see how it works. But if on the first morning after there is no perceptible discomâ€" fort or redness in your skin from exâ€" nosure to the sun, you may increase the length of your sun bath to thirty minutes. Continue this way, adding. fifâ€" teen minutes a day to exposure. When a deep tan has developed you can: play about all day long in the sun without i11 effect. Take a pride in getting a tan instead of a burn. If you know from past exâ€" perience that your skin is exceptionally sensitive it is a good idea to simplify things in quest of your tan. You will find it a help in this case to dip a towe) in vinegar and rub it lightly over your body before exposing it to the . sun. This may save considerable discomfort. Another bit of advice: Make your sun bathing an active affair. If a perâ€" son simply lies down in the sun and lets himself get baked, he is likely to come out groggy and sleepy and is lucky if he hasn‘t developed a headâ€" ache instead of emerging from the performance thoroughly vitalized and full of pep. Keep moving. Go in for athletics. Running, jumping, throwing, or if you have been foresighted enough to proâ€" vide for the sport, a vigorous game of baseball or volley ball will be just the thing. So much for the sun. There is one other thing. Flies! And the flies in the bush are not so courteous as they Are near the towns. They are not bit particular where they bite. How you will treat them is up to you. Every perâ€" son I meet has "just the remedy" for keeping flies away.
