As he gave his chauffeur a Wimbledon address, Carlimero felt that his conceit with nimself was justified; his visit to the Cosmopolis that night had been wellâ€"repaid. He had seen the man he proposed to kill in as short a time as was possible and the sight had given Carlimere is an underâ€"secretary at the Ronstadt Embassy, and so canâ€" not be deported. ) "TLL GIVE | YOUR FAMILY TASTIER, MORE DIGESTIBLE BREAD" mADE (Now Read on) in cana?A l | | | But there was also a personal aspect‘ to this visit. For years he had nurtured . the desire to seek out ard kill the man who had murdered his father, Dr. Guiâ€" seppe Carlimero. The name of that man was the Honourable Timothy Overâ€" ‘ bury Standish, better known by the ridâ€" ! iculcus name of "Tiger‘" Standish. It was his mother who had passed on to him the news that his father was dead. â€"and, wilst soldiering in the Caronian! African Colony of Littoria, he had. sworn nct to die himself until he had. killed his father‘s murderer. Now the opportunity had come. The fact that his father, Dr. Carliâ€" mero, had not beer a criminal in no way affected his purpose. Guiseppse Carlimero had been a genius in medical research, and it was not surprising, perhaps, that such highly developed brain should have turned in later life to other activities. Not at all surprising according to Pro. Lombardo who had taken the trouble to explain at some length that the difference between notrâ€" mality and abnormalityâ€"in the case Of a character like his father‘s was so minâ€" ute that the slightest maladjustment of the workings of the brain could easily account for the change. A ruthless person himself, the Major found glory rather than dishonour in recalling his dead father‘s association with that other genius the grim, ruthless enemy of society, Rahusen, ("The Man With the Dead Face"). What further triumphs these twoâ€"Guiseppe Carlimero and Rahusenâ€"might not have accomplished together had not this interfering swinge, tandish broken in on their plans. Carlimero haa arrived in London a fortnight before on two separate and distinct objectives. As the guest of the Ronstadtan Embassy, he would be fulâ€" Â¥ulling, his duty as Caronian Military Attache under the pact, and in that capacity he would be in the position to exchange confidential information with his country‘s ally. That was the official side of the situation. Ever since he had arrived in London Carlimere had cecliected all the availâ€" able information not only about the man he proposed to kill but about his occasional employer, Sir Harker Belâ€" lamy, CM.G., D.S.O0., the Chief of QI Branch of British Intelligence, Standish must come first, of course, but after he had killed that hound of an English man, he would turn his attention to Bellamy. For the latter was normally responsible for his father‘s death, inâ€" asmuch as he had put Standish on the job. He had found ready and willing asâ€" sistance at the Ronstadtian Embassy The special staff employed there, whose principal occupation it was to coâ€"ordinâ€" ate the espionage activities of the many agents at present working in Britain had been more than willing to help him. Many of these men were fanatiâ€" cal haters of the Britishâ€"bui none could equal the visitor in vehemence If Major Vincento Carlimero gould have had his own way unimpededâ€"if, for instance, he could have changed places with fate for a short space of a few minutesâ€"he would have brought down upon the whole of the British Empire such a pestilence that not a single livâ€" ing creature, man, woman or child, would have survived. ENEMY‘S HEART FLUTTERS He had gone to the Cosmopolis Hotel that evening with a dual purpose] he was pleased to accept the invitation of the charming countess Beckwit, who was fooling the stupid«British to the top of her bent but pretending to be a perferâ€" vid admirer or all things English whereas actually she was supplying the Ronstadtian Embassy with every availâ€" alble scrap of military, naval and air inâ€" formation that she could glean as aA result of he assiduous society enterâ€" taining. The Countess Keckwit, whose husband was high in the esteem of Herr Kuhnreich, the Dictator of the country she secretly served, was not averse to relieving her more serious duties; and it was in concequence of her bright smiles in his direction that Major Vincento Carlimero had gone to dine with her a deux at her suite at Cosmopolis Court that night. He would have gone in any case; but be went with all the more ardour beâ€" cause of reading in the morning papers earlier in the day about the Football Association‘s banquet at which the man he had sworn to kill was to be a prinâ€" cipal adornment. Major Vincento‘ Carlimero had done many things in his lifeâ€"but he had never played football. This was one reason, perhaps why his unpleasantly full lips had curled in disdain when he had perused those articles in that| mornings newspaper. How could a man like himselfâ€"a soldier, a hater of the mobâ€"be expected to treat with respect an enemy who induilged in such a ridiâ€" culous sport as football? As he had smoked his cigarette, Carlimero had thought of Dr. Crispi, so often referred to in the British Press as the Mouthâ€" piece of the Dictator of Coronia, whose Rritish had so often (to the amazed and sarcastic invective at the expense of the furious rage of Doctor Crispi himself)| been hailed with hilarious delight by the very persons against whom it haa been directed! Doctor Crispi having no senset of humour himself resented its passession by other pecple. ! But the woman who had come out to speak to Standish! She was breathâ€" taking. Fresh as he was firom ithe inviting smiles of the Countess Beckâ€" wit Carlimero had felt his heart thumping wildly as he looked upon the beauty of his enemy‘s wife. By the time he had come to the end | ha. of his reflections, the car had driven | in him through a wide gateway overlook-, I ing Wimbledon Common. |+h; CHAPTER IV | hu "I THINK HE‘S HORRIBLE!" th The other residents in Parkside, k6 Wimbledon, were very proud of havâ€"|YO! ing as a neghbour that eminent Egypâ€"| % tologist, Professor Edmund Lablonde. | biC The latter, to every outward aspect, ) of at least was a most desirable person.| Cb He was evidently wealthyâ€"otherwise, | F1 how could he have lived in such a! £ massive mansion As ‘"Fairlawns"?

Some interesting research work in blood pressure by members of the staff of the Institute for Psychoanalysis, Chicago, is â€"»decordedl in their recent Five Year Report.

Another most interesting finding reâ€"| corded by the report is that amongl African negroes high blocd pressure IS‘ found less often than among North! American negroes.

A Women‘s Instituteâ€"its friends call it "our W. I1."â€"is a countrywomen‘s club. The first women‘s Institute in Engsland was a Welsh one. It was founded in 1915. ~NAw, in May, 1940, the Women‘s Institutes in England and Wales number more than five thouâ€" sand seven hundred. The Institute idea began in Canâ€" ada. It was a very simple idea; that women living in the country should unite to work for themselves and for other people. This slowâ€"witted island of Great Britain heard of the moveâ€" ment before the last Great War. It might have spread here in any case. But war, and the need for growing more food at home, gave W. I. a definite reaâ€" son for existence and, in early life, a Gcovernment financial blessing. . It is easy to forget just how rural were the rural villages of England, }Twenty-five to thirty years ago. Theére were no motor buses to link village to village, and village to town. There were few cars. Town tradesmen did not dash round country disticts deliverâ€" ing goods. The village housewife had to trudge dusty miles to the market town, er buy in the village shop. It was THE shop very often, selling anything and everything, from bacon to a packâ€" et of pins. There was no wireless. On the other hand , old country ]crafts were disappearing, with the tradâ€" litional country dance, and the mumâ€" First Britis in Wales. ! Perhaps the most remarkable discovâ€" fery of the movement has been the hidâ€" \den acting talent of the ordinary counâ€" woman. It is less extraordinary ‘that W.L actresses are at their best in | Shakespeare. Shakesppeare was a man the soil. In spite of a distressing \film made eruption of "OK‘s" and ‘"Says Yous" among the younger ge°enâ€" eration, his language is still the authenâ€" tic English tongue. | The deeper purpose of Institute work iis hidden in the words of "Jerusalem," the pecem written nearly a century and ia nalf ago by the visionary, William | Blake, and sung, to Parry‘s fine tune, at | every Institute meeting. It is easy to laugh at the skinny schoolâ€"mistress and \the farmer‘s fat wife, demanding their ‘"chariots of fire‘ and their ‘"bows of !burning gold." They have not yet I do not know if the founders ofW. I. in Britain saw themselves as saving the best of the old while they started the best of the new. This is what they have done. Institute members want good country housing, water supplies, proper sanitation and so en. They can make their voices heard quite loudâ€" ly on such matters. But they are also keeping alive knowledge of crossâ€"stitch quilting and weaving, and other similar lovely handiwcork of the past. They believe in the arts as well. I have been looking down the Diary of Events for the National Federation of Women‘s Institutes in May and June a year ago. *"Singing Festival in Kerkâ€" shire . .. Handicraft Exhibiticn in Carmathen . . . Knitting Conference in ‘Cambridgeshire . . . Drama Festival in Durham . . . Folk Dance Festival in Trerbyvshire . .. Plain Sewing School in Carmathen ..

Now has come another war and withi it, naturally, the quenching of a good deal of W.I. activity. There has been no great Annual General Meeting ini London this year, to fill the Albert| Hall with WTI. delegates from every part cf the land. Here and there Inâ€" stitute Halls have been taken as First Aid Posts, or for other Government work. The blackâ€"out regulations made evening meetings difficult. But the war has seen W.L, as a whole, returnâ€" ing to its first sphere of usefulness, as producers and preservers of food. Through the Institutes, and their Produce Giulds, the Government has asked countrywomen all over the counâ€" try not only to grow as much food as possible, but also to can and bottle all available fruits when grown. Tins' and lbottles can be bought at special | prices. Travelling sealingâ€"up machines | are to go from village to village. Above; all. women are asked to provide, where possible in every village and hamlet, a’ suitable central storero0Om for these cans and bottles, in which potatoes, carrcts. onions, and such like can bcz kept, free from fear of damp and frost; | a communal squirrels‘ hoard for pos-i sible future needs.

"England is the country and the country is England." So wrote Lord Baldwin; a countryâ€" man Prime Minister. Six hundred years ago, on Lord Baldâ€" win‘s native Malvern Hills, an English poet wrote "The Vision of Piers Plowâ€" man": a vision of a world where men and women could be happy, and free to serve God and follow the way of right. Piers Plowman is still the basic Engâ€" lishmen. He and his countrywoman wife, have still that vision before them.
