Janet believes Jimmy is what he seems to be, a poor young man struggling to earn a living. Actually he is the son of a rich oil man who owns the fill- ing station where Jimmy is learn- ing the business. Jimmy promis- ed his father he will mot tell Janet his real circumstances until she has admitted her love for Him and this she has just refused , to do. pl 4 1 nl fi Brooklyn. Spend "I WANT YOU TO FORGET ME" Jimmy waited until Janet's subway train was out of sight, then he took the one that followed and went straight to his old home. Bates ad- mitted him and told him. his father was dressing for dinner, "Ask him if he can see me now," James ordered, "and while I'm talk- ing with him see that fresh clothes are laid out for me in my old room, please." "Yes, sir," the long gloomy stairway, lined with fine pictures, to announce the arrival of young Mr. Warren to old Mr. Warren. "He says you're to come right up Mr. James," Bates returned in a few mintutes to say, and Jimmy took the stairs three at a time in his haste to see his father. "Something's happened," Mr. War- ren remarked after he had shaken hands with his son. "A great deal has happened, father. I want to ask you to release me now from my promise so I can tell Janet when 1 see her this evening ithe truth about this masquerade of mine." "Tell me the whole story first," his father commanded. So Jimmy began, relating all the incidents leading up to Janet's vaca- tion with Adelaide, the coming of Westlake into her life, his proposal and refusal of the aiternoon just "Sa. ve you want to "tell. her that you're just as rich as Westlake, do you? You think the minute she hears that she'll change her 'mind and be- come engaged to you. "N-no, that: sounds pretty bald-- I'd just like to sail under my true solors for a while--especially if she's oing to get engaged to this fellow Westlake." Mr. Warren meditated for a time, then he said: "I doubt very much from. what you tell me that she's going to marry this man Westlake. If she tells you tonight that she is engaged to him I'll release you from your promise. There'd be no. point in keeping it any longer, anyway. But if she promises to marry Westlake, 1 think she'll keep her Promise and your chance will be gone. However, you can see for yourself that to tell her now, before she admits her love for you, would be a terrific blow to her pride. She'd probably say her love wasn't for sale and maybe re- fuse to see you any more at all. I think, Jimmy, that if this is the réal 'Reliey "DODD'S KIDNEY > and Bates® vanished up | Barbara Webb By Copgright by Public Ledger thing, if you and Janet truly love each other, that it will work itself out. 'Be patient, give my plan a fair chance--will you? I believe with all my heart that it's the best thing for you both in the long run Jimmy swallowed hard. "Tl try, father, But] it's pretty hard. Only if-- if she tells me tonight that she's foe, to marry Westlake I won't tell er that I'm really as well off as he is. It might hurt her--seem to taunt her with refusing me--and I, well, I love her too much to want to hurt her, father. If she does care for me and marries Westlake instead, it will be harder for her to forget me if I rig ger than if she still thinks of me oor young fellow working in the i ng station." "Good boy, Jimmy," the elder Warren laid an affectionate hand on his son's shoulder, "that's ,man talk, what I wanted yod to say. Jimmy © went to his room then, bathed, contrasted the sident service of the valet he shared with his father, the rows of neatly pressed suits, the big airy room lined with books, and the pictures and trophies that hung on the wall with his squalid room at the Brooklyn boarding house. "No wonder Janet hates it," he thought "she doesn't even have this sort of thing to escape to, and no prospect, as I have, of anything better." He went to get her then, deciding not to take a car, but to play' his role of poor young clerk to the letter for this evening at least. She seemed rather 'pale to him when he got to the apartment. Adelaide he did 'not see, she was dressing and had no in- clination to come out to greet him, for she blamed him for Janet's re- fusal of Westlake. There are a number of tearooms near Riverside Drive, and it was to one of the quieter of these that Jimmy took Janet. "After this the movies," he 'told her, "unless you'd rather just walk along the drive." Plenty of Other Girls They did both, leaving the picture Lane, and. I ought to shake you until your teeth rattle, instead of which I kiss your two hands, so, on the palms where it feels all. soft and creepy when I do it, and then on the backs, and then your wrists where I kan feel your heart beat against my ips--" Janet jerk' her hands free as Jimmy laid his lips over the pulse in her. left. wrist, "Take me homie, this minute," she commanded, jumping up and stamping her foot. "Very well, m'lady," He felt very -cheerful said Jimmy. and happy. all. Janet just needed a little more time. She wasn't going. .to marry Westlake and that was sq much sheer gain. Jimmy whistled and Janet fell into step. with him, They walked to the apartment and. Jimmy said, "I think I'll come tp and say hello to Adelaide, ask her when Butch is com- {re back. I like that bird, he's tough guess, but he's all there." 'Butch's Return Janet smiled to herself, knowing what kind of welcome Jimmy would receive from Adelaide. © Adelaide was very sore over the failure of her plot to marry Janet to John Westlake and blamed Jimmy severely for it. When they reached the apartment the door was locked, Janet used her pass-key, but apparently the door was bolted on the inside. "That's funny," she said, M1 guess I'll have 'to ring." After a Jlong time cautious steps came to the door and Adelaide's voice, very low and full of fear asked "Who is there?' "Janet and Jimmy, 'Let us in, you silly goese," Janet cried impatiently. "Oh'l--" there was a world of relief in Adelaide's voice as she: shot the bolt back, "Come in--I" thought you were-~you were the po--were some one else. Butch is home," but in spite of her evident relief at seeing them she carefully bolted the door again when they had passed through it into the living room. To Be Continued Tomorrow before it was finished and going into the cool hight along "the Hudson. | They found a quiet spot where the lights of the passing boats were vis- | ible and sat down side by side on the | grass. "Like to be on one of those boats, Janet?" 'I'd love it--sail up the river to some other city and neyer come back to New York and the office and the house in Brooklyn." "Then you are coming back to all these things, Janet?" Janet hesitated and Jimmy added swiftly, "I don't want to pry, Janet. But if you're not going to marry Westlake, then 1 feel there is still. hope for me." "I'm not going to marry Westlake," Janet said slowly. Jimmy's heart leaped, then felt like lead at her next words, "And I'm not going to marry you, either. I'm going to go on with my work, maybe I'll go to night school this winter and try to "fit my- self for a better position. I'm not foing | to see so much of you Jimmy. t isn't good for you. There are plenty of other girls, -nicer than I am, and. prettier, who don't feel about things as I do. It isn't fair for me to keep you dangling on, hoping for what' can't happen. So while I'll see you occasionally, of course, after I come back from the country, it won't be nearly so often as in the past. I want you to forget me, Jimmy." "Will you forget me? "I'm going to try to.' Jimmy cursed the promise that kept him from sweeping her into his arms, taking her to the nearest church, marrying her, taking her.abroad, giv- ing her every beautiful thing that money could bay. Intolerable pain sounded voice when he spoke again, "Do you really mean that, Janet? That you are going to try to forget met?" "I really mean that, Jimmy," she said steadily, "T've been forgetting a good many things I should have remembered, the fact that my father and mother depend on what I pay them for my beard and room to help meet our household expenses; the dreams I've had of doing something fine.

I gave him up because cause I couldn't marry jim when I knew how you felt. You ept me from that, Jimmy--" "And" yet you say you don't love me?" the man's voice asked. "I do not dove you. 1 mever did love you. I never shall love you," the woman's voice answered. "You're an unmitigated liar, Janet + Y CONGER'S high grade fuels are Shp selected for low ash, a!

MEASURES 1,000 STARS Charlottesville, Va., Feb. 8.--- Dr. Samuel Alfred Mitchell, pro- fessor of astronomy at the Univer- sity of Virginia, and director of the Leéander McCormick Observa- tory, has announced he had com- pleted measuring hte distance to one thousand stars. The McCormick Observatory. on top of Mount Jefferson, measures stellar distances by the parallax method, With 1,000 published par- allaxes it is more than 100 ahead of the Allegheny Observatory at the University of Pittsburgh, Tho Yerkes Observatory of the University of Chicago, the Mount Wilson Observatory of the Univer sity of California, the Sproul Ob- servatory of Bwarthmore College and the Greenwich Observatory in England have measured distances to some 300 stars... And all the stars will add about three hundred more, making a total of a few more than 3,200 stellar measurements now completed. This, university officials say, does not mean that direct distances have been moasured from the earth to 3,000 stars, for there isi purposely much duplication. This was done in order that observers might maintain a constant check on each other. The actual number measured, Dr. Mitchell eaid, fis about 2.000, The trigonometric method used at the McCormigk Observatory is the only direct way of measuring stellar distances, Dr, Mitchell pointed out. He explained it is done by carefully making photo- graphs of the star from opposite ends of the orbit of the earth as it moves around the sun. This gives the astronomer a known base line from which he can compute the stellar distances. At the University of Virginia half an hour is required to secure a suitable exposed plate. The par- allax depends upon: the measdre- ment of about 20 piates, When thc photographic work was started at the University of#Virginia in 1913 the measurement of a single par- allax required a total of approxi- mately 50 hours but by using more EMILE 81.

British d tist thor, who, upon hearing that Maurice Colbourne's book, "The Real Bernard Shaw," was about and au- to be published, demanded the proofs, when he revised and made drastic changes in them. efficient methods rocently the time has been considerably shortened. When Professor Mitchell came to the McCormick Obscrvatory 18 years ago the distances of not more than 100 stars were reli- ably known. Astronomers express distances not in miles but in light-years; the distance of space through which a beam of light will travel in one year, Because the direct trigono- metric method cannot he used with stars of more than 300 light years away several indirect methods of measuring stellar distances |have been worked out. In speaking of the stellar uni- verse astronomers refer in terms of millions of light years. These conceptions of enormous distances rest upon the foundation work done by Professor Mitchell and others who have measured the direct distances to stars by the trigonometric method. WESTERN PARTIES BACK STAND OF THE WHEAT POOL DENY REPRESENTA- TIONS HAVE BEEN MADE AT OTTAWA Dominion Government Not Likely to Take Any Action at Present Winnipeg, Feb. 8.--All the West today flared back a denial of re- ports that the Dominion Govern- ment had been asked from Winni- peg to take over Canada's wheat surplus in interests of national security. Wheat pool and grain ex- change officials declared outright they had not approached the gov- ernment for any such co-operation, Meanwleile, from various quar- ters, came approval of the unalter- ed "orderly marketing' policy of the wheat pools, and expressions of fidence backed by the finances fanitoba, Saskatchewan and Al- Dy were in a seeure position. No pressure to liquidate present wheat stocks had been brought by lending banks, said an official statement from the Canadian Bank- ere' Association, nor was any such action contemp ated. James R. Murray, secretary of the Winnipeg Grain Exchange, la- belled the Ottawa report of be- sought government assistance as an outright canard. * "Nothing More Foolish" "Certainly no representative of the grain trade has made represen- tations to anyone urging that wheat be taken over by the Gov- ernment," he said, adding: "Per- sonally, I can imagine nothing more foolish." No representations whatsoever have been made by the Poel to the Dominion Government, according to officials . of the co-operative body which represents some 140, 000 Prairie farmers. Pool men de- nied knowledge of any such ad- vance. At Edmonton, Premier J, E. Brownlee of Alberta, strong sup- porter of Pool policy, declared he knew of no such suggestion being made by the Wheat Pool or any other marketing agency. Particular significance in the West is attached to the announced stand of the banks, "The Canadian banks stand steady, in co-operation with the Governments of the Prairie Provinces, to grant a full measure of assistance for the pro- tection of the legitimate interests of the Western wheat growers," said a statement issued at Montrea! by Beaudry Leman, genersl man- ager of the Banque Canadienne Na- tionale and president of the Cana- dian Bankers' Association. Members of the Dominion Cabi- net lined up alongside Pool and trade officials in avowed ignorance of reported representations to Ot~ tawa on the htat situation, At Winnipeg, Hon. T. A. Crerar, Min- ister of Railways, Yh he felt no such move had been made. Hon. James Malcolm, Minister of Trade and Commerce, phoned to Toronto from Kincardine, Ont., saying he had heard nothing of the mooted representations. Ottawa Anxious Ottawa, Feb. 7.--That the wheat pools or the Winnipeg Grain Ex- change had made represgntations to the Federal Government to come to the assistance of the grain trade has never been suggested here. The wheat pools have ample security furnished by the Provincial Governments of the wheat vinces, But it is known that indi- viduals and companies in Winni- peg interested in the grain trade have placed the situation before the Federal Government. It is also acknowledges that the Federal Government, through the grain commission, made strong repre- sentations to prominent members of the grain exchange to give im- mediate and sufficient assurance to one or more grain companies in order to satisfy their bankers and prevent forced liquidation of grain stocks. No Official Discussion In Ottawa the question of the pro- | Federal Government taking over the surplus grain to protect the market has been seriously discuss- ed, but probably not officially, Such a course was discussed among cer- tain interests in Winnipeg and these discussions were reported to Ottawa when the situation was critical, There was, and still is, = great anxiety in Ottawa over the huge surplus wheat crop in Canada and the refusal of European importers to purchase at present prices and under the conditions that have ob- tained in the Canadian wheat trade for six months, MANCHESTER MAN SUFFERS MISHAP Frank Crosier Loses Control of Car When Steering Gear Breaks Manchester, Jan, 30.--Frank Cro- sier suffered an unfortunate accident when the steering gear of his car went wrong at Brooklin bridge, caus. ing him to lose control of the ca: and considerable damage to the ca: resulted, Miss Laura Thompson from the sixth concession is spending this week at the home of Mr: and Mrs G.
