What a mercy it is \vc don't all think alike â€" if we did there would be a lot more round pegs in square holes. I suppose this wintery winter has been quite a hardship to a lot of people â€" I mean in having to stay home more than usual. And why should it be? Surely we put very little value on the place we call home if we find it a hard- ship to stay in it for two or three weeks at a stretch. What is the matter with us that we are always wanting to go places and see things? We, "who have so much more of this world's comforts and conveniences in our homes than did our parents and grandparents, in their day and age. * * ♦ Already there is some talk of a forty-four week for post-w;if indus- trial workers â€" and no doubt farmers tvould have to fall in line to a certain extent â€" or go with- out hired help.

The Jade God By MARY IMLAY TAYLOR CHAPTER XI Landon, who had never forgiven him for the result of the wager, turned back reluctantly and un- locked his door. Once inside the room. Banks shut the door and leaned his back against it. "See here, Archie," he said hoarsely; "that fellow â€" that wager fellow, I mean â€" he's an ex-convict; he's committed murder I" Landon stood still. He had noth- ing to say, but he felt the blood pounding in his brain. He had hat- eu Mark, but not for an instant had he imagined this! Banks went on to elucidate his statement, to add a little color to it. "Killed his old uncle fifteen years ago; that's why it's sort of forgot- ten â€" feeble old man," he explained breathlessly; "knocked him on the head with a brick or something like that; a perfectly beastly mur- der!" Landon folded his arms and straightened himself a little. Still " he said nothing, and his fixed stare disconcerted Banks. "Look* here old chap," he said nervously, "it's a bally kettle of fish; what are you going to do about it?" "Do?" Landon's face reddened. "I'd like to hang you, for one thing," he replied bitterly. "It's that fool wager! As for this fel- low- â€" " his lips tightened^'Tll see to him!" "D'you know Fosdick says he's making love to Pamela Rod â€" " "Shut up!" Landon snapped. "You leave her out of it; you've done enough!" "Oh, if you're going to foist all the blame on me!" Banks began angrily, but he got no further; Lan- don thrust him out into the hall, locked the door of his apartment and started down.<?tairs on a run. * * » He was aware of Teddy's angry sputterings behind him, but he took no heed. He found the taxi wait- ing outside and comjnandeered it. He had found out, in the early stages of the affair, where Mark had his lodgings; he ordered the taxi there now, and threw himself back into the corner of it to think. He had seen Mark's first meeting with Pamela Rodney, and he had been utterly unprepared for the rush of his progress. Landon, a product of social conventions, a dandy of the ballroom, but fully determined to marry Pani, the heiress, had never dreamed of making love to her with eyes that had the kindling flash of Mark's. He could not. He had not the power or the will of a man who had suffered. * * » Such love burns like a flame. The flame had taught Pam, as fire touches the lovely wings of '& but- terfly and brings it down to earth. Landon, looking on, knowing how and why he had brought them to- gether, raged at the thought. He was helpless, too. If he told the truth, Mrs. Lynn would certainly exclude Mark altogther, but she would just as certainly exclude the man who had made the wager. While Mark stayed away from the house he had breathed more freely; he had begim to believe that his threats had taken effect. 1 hen, by accident he had seen him emerge from the tearoon. with Pam and l-.r.d leaped to the conclusion that tl;ey had met often. The thought had maddened him; he was furiously jealous, and an ill-advised, ineffectual attempt to warn Mrs. Lynn had only made Pam equally angry. Then Landon, possessed, as he felt now, by some demon of ill luck, had put his fate to the touch on the spot and asked the girl to marry him. lie had been refused too absolutely to leave any hope at all. Pam was a modern, she took the matter calmly and gave him a flat jiiswcr. "I don't like you well enough, Archie, to begin with," she had said, "and you're not the kind of man I'd marry anyway. You've never done anything in your life but play tennis and dance and make yourself agreeable. I've done ebout the same things. We'd bore each other to extinction. No, thank you!" She had not said it sweetly either, because she w'as so angry that her cheeks were pink and her eyes flashed. Landon choked down his anger without accusing her of be- ing in love with that "wager fel- low," as Ttddy Banks had called Mark, but, none the less, he knew she was, and he vowed vengeance â€" not on her, but on the man. He had been in this state of mind when Teddy broke in on him with his shocking revelation. Landon felt like shouting; it was fearful thing to introduce him, but he could lose no more by that than he had already. He had lost Pam! Very well, then; she would know before the sun set that she had to give up her convict! * * * Landon, sitting tight in the jump- ing tax!, laughed bitterly, with a kind of ghouli. n joy. It was not until the vehicle stopped at the door of a dingy brown-stone front, that it occurred to him to be afraid of the consequence â€" physically He re- m-imbered suddenly the terrible grip of Mark's hands in the smok- ing room; but not even that could deter him; he was at a white heat. "The convict!" he thought, "the nutrderer â€" making love to her!" Jealousj' and something deeper, a kind of brute fury, carried him up the steps to the door. But he met only disappointment. The land- lady herself inswered the ring. Mr. Grant had gone â€" sent his luggage away, paid her and left an hour ago or more. Landon leaned against the doorpost, white to the lips. It was rio part of his plan to lost the triumph of his knowledge; to beat down the law-breaker! The woman, seeing his face, grew anxious. "Did you want him for anything particuar, sir?' she asked. â- ^- iduianhcdct You can llSe this crocheted square (12 inches in No. 30; lU^ in., in string).

"Served a term for a murder." • ♦ » She uttered a frightened exclama- tion and then shook her head. "To think of it! And him such a nice young man, too!" "You're sure he's gone." Lan- don panted â€" his anger was not as- suaged by this escape. "He said so, sir; going west, he told me; didn't say where," she added, "but I thinkâ€" Nebraska." Landon glanced at his watch. The Chicago flyer had not left yet. Could be make it and get at him at the station? He rushed tlie taxi there at full speed and made it before train time. He stood a long time at the gates, waiting, •earching the crowd with his eyes. But there was no sign of Mark. Then the gates* clanged shut. He had seen the last traveler embark and Mark had not gone. He stood awhile staring at nothing. He stood awhile staring at nothing. Where was he? Landon lifted his white face and stared at the staticn clock. It was nearly six o'clock. An in- stinct, an intuition or just pure un- adulterated jealously, seized him; he went out and got another taxi. As he entered it he was startled by a sound like a pistol shot. His nerves jumped, but it was owly a motor-car back-firing. He leaned forward ^nd gave Burleson's -ad- dress to the driver. (To Be Continued) SUNDAY SCHOGL LESSON Lesson 8 â€" March 4 Jesus Teaches Forgiveness Matthew 18:21-35 Golden Text â€" For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their tres- passes, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. â€" Matthew «:14, 1.^. * * * Peter enquired how many times shall a brother sin against us and still be forgiven. Peter must have thought seven times would be suf- ficient for anyone. Not only seven, but seventy-times seven Jesus re- plied. This may have only been a figure of speech, but regardless, there should be no end to the for- giving of a brother who may tres- pass against us. Jesus illustrates his message by referring to the Kingdom of Heaven, as an earthly kingdom. The king checks up on his ser- vants. Each servant has to give an account of his stewardship. Likewise each Christian shall be called upon to stand and give an account of his life.'s service. * *' » This particular servant was typical of each sinner who is un- able to pay the price of his sal- vation. The servant was com- manded to be sold, with his pos- aessions, to help pay the debt. The sinner is cast into the Lake of Fire. The servant fell down and wor- shipped his king pleading for mercy and forgiveness. The ser- vant was forgiven as is everyone who comes to the Savior seeking pardon for his sins. The servant soon forgot the King's goodness towards him, and went out without mercy seeking those indebted to him. How often is this the case \ with those who .have found help from the Lord in tim* of trouble. The debt here was only a trifle com- pared witli what he had been for- given, but still he demanded pay- ment. * * S ' The servant uttered the same petition as this tyrant had uttered when pleading before his Lord. We would have expected this man to show a spirit of forgiveness after Here's Speedy Relief For Tender, Aching, Burning Feet Your feet may be so swollen and Inflamed that you thiuk you can't KO another step.
