It gives an fmpression ot straining for a sar. torial effect, Additional clothes. command. for men are, according to Mr. Block "The width of the trousers should be about three-fourths the length of the man's feet. The trousers also .should be long enongh to "break" on the instep. The socks shouldn't slow, "ia Ye - "An inch of shirt cuff should glso show beneath the coat sleeve] Underweight?

He agrees. - CHAPTER VIII It was Wednesday morning when excitement reached its high- est in the archaeologists's camp. Bob had the party up in the gray of dawn. A "Let's cat and gel going!" he urged, "We can get into the castle before 9 o'clock, I think. Shouldn't be hard to place. the last two lad- ders." : It was hard, and®it was rather dangerous, but the job was done. Holliman, who had meant to be-, gin some of his lovemaking, as contracted, didn't find any sort of chance for it, so hard did Bob drive them. It was past nine when the ladders were all safe. Bob himself might have climbed 40 feet then and gone back into the castle, but instead he came back down. . } _ "You are going next, Miss Lane," he smiled at Mary Melissa, "This is really your party, you "know." Quite by chanceg-he laoked then at Honey Bee Girl. The. Indian was ~staring longingly upward. "Mob, kind of heart anyway, was instantly touched. : ~ "Say, Honey Bee, would you like to go up? With the first party, I mean? Come on, if you want to. You follow Miss Lane, then we'll bring up the rear." He had no idea what feelings his bland "invitation created in Melissa could have slapped him almost, she told herself, But even so, she r¢cognized his motive, and admir-" ed him for it. Honey Bee nodded, cold, impassive, This first climb up took more than 20 minutes, Nobody spoke. - Bob stood at the bottom of each | - ladder, steadying it until the girls reached the next ledge and the next ladder above. When they had gone single file over the rim, and stood by the castle door facing the bright morning sun, Bb made quite an occasion of it. ; "Mary Melissa Lane," he pro- 3 claimed, "you ave the first: white woman -ever to set foot in this fortress, Moreover, you are the first woman of any sort -- and_ probably the second hpman being ----to visit here in at- least 100 years!" - E] + ° A 'Magnificent View The thought of it thrilled 'Lis- £3. She felt a queer. tightening in her throat. She said nothing. She smiled at Bob, and together they stared across the 200 miles of haze and blue and purple and red spread before them--a gigantic pallette, of pastel paints daubed there by Nature, and made oddly alive by the morning motion of the sun, ! = oly Mary Melissa gave thought to the contrast this view meant in her life, In New.

A veritable sea of roofs and pent- h. uses, spires and blocks and cast- les and domes, surged there in Babylonian disorder, yet with a strange if intricate pattern which in other moods seemed to fit in machine-like detail. Chips of ships floated on the Hudson to the right of her; congestion was fore- ed from the left by still another water course. Permeating it all were the working, playing, build. ing, moving, eternally restless ants of Manhattan. Now she was .a similar height -- looking, incidentally, from the porch of yet another ap- artment, The grandeur, somehow was much the same, "It's--magnificent, Dr. Barry!" she murmured it, barely audible. The silence, not the roar of traffic, was dominant here. Sky- scrapers were not 40 stories, nor 80; they were rocky peaks a hun- dred "stories," or a thousand. A. few birds could be seen. Grazing in their new corral 600 feet down were the expedition's mules and horses--but in all the expanse be- fore them was not another visible living thing, -- His Heart Was Pounding Bob sensed her 'mood, and the spell of the place gripped him too, caused him momentarily to forget his science, the past that stood in masonry behind them. He gazed at the eastern .horizon. Then something -- he never knew what--caused him slowly to turn and look at Mary Melissa Lane. He saw her profile there--real- ly saw the girl for the first time. She had been a person before, a very definite person, who could and did issue a $5000 check that was good, and who fitted surpris- ingly well inta the personnel of a mountain expedition, But now-- By George, her eyelashes are amazingly long! And her nose, and chin--nothing pert there, nothing flippant. A solidity, rath- er; yet delicate, too. Molded so finely. With no fault. His scien- tist's eye was analyzing her, not at-the direction of his mind, but di some deéper force. neonsciously, she parted her lips a trifle, and he saw perfect teeth, A moment later she turns ed to him, perceived his intense scrutiny, and turned away smil- on | ing. It broké his trance, but Dr. Robert Wilson Barry, archaeolo- gist, realized for the first time in his adult life that the present can be altogether as fascinating as the past. In him, a mature young scientist, his heart was in- explicably pounding! ! "Don't seem to be anybody else here," Hades Jones called, He had been peering in various doors. "look out for rattlers in places like this." og "Snakes?' queried 'Lissa. "This high up, Uncle Hades?" "They come, up along rocks anywhere there's likely to be mice and rats and such like to eat. They pack rat nests in here, I see." i ~ Ten Centuries Ago? They found no! rattlesnakes, nor any other sign of recent life. Bob repeated that the place probably had been abandoned - sometime in the Dark, Ages, as Europ# reckoned time, "But = why?" asked 'Lissa: "Where did they go, I wonder," ."That's exactly why we are here?"

They found many odds and nds' of artifacts, the things and too s. of life many centuries bes fore, remarkably well preserved by the high, dry atmosphere of what is now called Arizona. I'hen Bob pidied up a slone hatanier. It was tied to a stick handle, as usval with native ~ weanpons, And: -- most significant -- the 1awhide thong that tied it was still in good condition, still tight - and strong. He stared at it in- tently. "Something iMpoFrant?" asked Mary Melissa, "Very. This skip, on this ham- mer. Say, somebody was here much less than 1000 years ago. Nearer 100 years, I'd estimate, or this rawhide' would have decay- ed. But the crumbled walls, and everything else in sight, look like 10 centuries or_more, This come _ plicates the thing immensely, Lissa," : Mary Melissa didn't care! ...

At jeast two cooked vege. tables and one raw vegotable every day should be the inviolable rule of every hontemaker, One can always lure the family into eating plenty of vegetables, if ono has attractive ways in which to serve them, and lots of varlefy. Now spinach will be on the mar- ket in a few days and while it is very wholesome just plain boiled with as little water as possible (do ! you remember?), try mixing with a little butter and cream and sea- soning. This makes it a very appe- tizing dieh; For varlety, sprinkle the above with hard bolled eggs chopped fine. Then another method (after bolling the spinach and then draining) is to place In a baking dish alternately with a rich cream sauce, which has been previously _ made, Sprinkle the top with butter- ed crumbs and powdered hard boil- ed eggs. Place in a slow oven for about 20 minutes, This too Is very satisfying.

Pick carefully, throw Into cold water and wash In several wa- "ters previously salted. Plunge the dandelions into bolling water, cook one-half hour before adding the spinach. Continue the cooking until tender, then drain and add butter, salt and pepper. Mix well, turn into warm dish and serve with hard boiled egg.
