She forced her horse to a can- ter, he followed, but a flush rose in his lean-jawed face, "You'd sell your soul to the devil for Werburge Lucy, Diana," he sald, as he rode alongside. Diana Hamlill-Hardy fished one cu- rious glance at him, and her grey- green eyes held a strange light, "I nave," she returned curtly. A few minutes afterwards they rode past Daphne, who remained at the top of the chicken field; but nei- ther glanced at her, She might have been one of the chickens or a gate- post, But her eves followed them. "Why, that's the man everybody - said she was going to marry," ran her thoughts. "He's that crack point to point rider, 1 forget his name, But everybody said they were lovers." Into- her mind there flashed a sud- den thought, her face colored as she realized its significance, but her lips get in a thoughtful curve, "I shouldn't wonder {if Michael Borde has to suffer in the same way as my father suffered through him," she said, "That would be a strange sort of justice," "Daphne walked on slowly, and her face grew more thoughtful, | That night she slept for the first! time in the house that had been Mrs. Gregory's and when she found herself lying awake hour after hour told her- , that way now. who was to reign at Werburge Lucy, Now, listening to the curfews and gazing into. the, glimmering twilight that preceded the June dawn, Daphne Eden remembered how years and years ago when she knew that her father bad married again she had wished that she might die.

It might be foolish to. remember it, but she felt exactly Since. she had parted with Lily Eden she had been restless and un- happy, fearing to hear the rest of the story uncertain and yet certain, too, that the accusations brought by her father had been 'true, She had to go to London on the morrow to seek her solicitors again, she would make an opportunity and seek out Mrs, Eden at the address she had given her, The Fates that sit aloft and play with threads must have smiled. It was that day Michael! Borde re: membered his promise to Lily Eden. He had gone most carefully into the matter of the lighting invention: everything was fair and square, fit had been bought outright from the Swede, and Multi-Motors had secur- ed the patent and exploited the rights, but what, again, was wrong with that? The inventor had need- ed money in a hurry, and had been perfectly willing to sell all rights, It was useless to him unless he could get a big firm to back him and put the invention on the market, Nevertheless, Michael mained a trifie uneasy. He sought for and found Lily Ed- en's address. "Well, I'm in for" it now, and I must dig for the truth with that woman, She'll talk if she gets a good meal and a bottle of wine, or I'm no judge of her sort." Leaving his car outside, he went up the: stairs leading - to the - flat- she shared with another woman, careful ly noting as he walked toward the top that the linolenum was in fairly good condition on the' last flight of stairs, and that the letter-box was clean and shining, It was not due to Lily, he felt certain of that, but to the other woman, whoever she might be.

Ce ar DOES NOT HARM THE HEART » )- such speeds are deadly in town and | impractical in the country in all but exceptional instances. Russell Holt Peters, in the February Forum, says the manufacturers don't expect driv- ers to use such speed. ; "This sounds absurd," says Mr. Peters. "It isn't, for speed secured through efficient engineering means economy, long life, greater comfort, and believe it or not, greater safety. Economy results because more effic- ient design permits you to achieve normal speed with less expenditure for fuel. Longer life is produced because your car is always operat- ing well within its capacity, Great er comfort comes from the-absence of strain inherent in underpowered cars. If you have ever driven one of the tiny vehicles England pro- duces to escape exhorbitant taxes you will know exactly what I mean. And latent speed may be invaluable in pulling you out of a tight cor- ner." These are words to be remember ed by every motorist. When the manufacturer says the car will go 90 miles an hour, he isn't urging you to prove it by travelling at that speed. He means that at 30 miles an hour you will have comfort, economy and safety, and won't be running up a repair bill, since the car is good for that and 60 miles an 'hour in addition,--Detroit News. > "I doubt if in our lifetime we shall be able to appreciate the tre- mendous revolution by evolution that is passing."-----Ramsay - MacDon- ald. : 2 "Nothing is more 'thrilling than activity, Nothing is more fatiguing Borde re-|° n now has a blend for every purse AFRO IANER Dh rut STEERS Dy Sr et 3 ' BROWN LABEL - 33¢ % 1b.
