"Give me the money and I'll lay off." But Dan McNamara shook his bead. "I know your kind, Pat. There's no sense wasting good money on you because you won't stay bought. Clear out, I tell you." So Flynn cleared out, carrying with him Infinitely more respect for bis chief than he had heretofore entertained. en-tertained. Well, some day he'd collect col-lect heavy Interest on that two hundred hun-dred and fifty dollars. The last patient had left Stephen Burt's office for the day and the ever watchful Lanny had locked the office door. "Tired, Stevle?" she queried anxiously, anx-iously, as he loaded his pipe. "No, of course not," he replied abruptly. "What have I done to be tired T "Well, you had another session with that terrible Sirs. Merton." "She doesn't weary me any more.

I've known her name since the day after her escape from San Quentln." McNamara proceeded to relate the tale he had previously related tou Stephen, who. bad neglected to retail It to Lanny. "Well, If this Isn't a h 1 of a tale, Dan!" she said. "Does It beat your news, Lanny?" "Beats It by a mile, although while she was at my house she told me as much about herself as she could remember." "This morning," McNamara continued, con-tinued, "the president of the Security Secur-ity Trust company telephoned me that, the girl's mother had called him up to ask If Penelope had been cashing any checks lately. The banker gathered that the mother has a notion her daughter's dead. She doesn't like the Idea of having to wait seven years to have the girl declared officially dead before she can lay claim to Penelope's estate." es-tate." "Did you find out the name of her mother?" Stephen asked. "Oh, yes. She's married again, you understand. Mrs. Kudolph Merton." "She's a patient of Stevle's!" Lanny yelled. "She's such a nut the squirrels chase her." Stephen finished writing and laid down his pen. "I told you, Lanny, that Mrs. Merton wasn't Insane enough to be confined." "Guess I've got Lanny's news beaten, after all, Stephen. This Put Her Arms Around Him and Kissed Him on Each Check Mrs. Rudolph Merton Is the girl's foster mother." "Hooray ! Hooray ! Hooray !" cried Lanny. "How do you know?" "I wanted to Investigate the girl's fortune So yesterday I had a copy of the will and a copy of the appraisal of the estate made at the courthouse In San Jose and sent up to me. Gatlln stated In the will that he left all of his estate to his beloved adopted daughter, Penelope Gatlln. At the time of his death his estate was worth practically half a million dollars and has since doubled In value. Nance Helden Is a lost heiress." "Not wholly lost," Stephen reminded re-minded him. "There are times w hen ahe remembers - w ho site is and that she has money." "She doesn't know anything about her mother," I.nnny declared. "I asked her, but sho could tell me not hi up.

Anyhow we uie having a lot of fun making it. We are working out at a fine stock ranch owned by Mr Carleton Uurke, the head of California Racins Commission. Com-mission. He and his Commission are the ones that kept racing on such a high plane out here and it was such a success. He breeds some very fine horses, lie and Mr Nell McCarty. one of Los Angeles most promlntnt attorneys. at-torneys. You know this horse breeding and raising has become a great fnd not only out here, but all over th Country. Coun-try. Never was the horse so popular as now. Well 1 have just been up there playing with those beautiful young thoroughbred colts, and their mothers who had raced on famous tracks and some had made great records rec-ords and won many many thousands of dollars. This McCarty Is . nut on breeding strains, and remembering whos pap was who. Y'ou know England Eng-land is great for that. I was out one day at a big English Estate fo- lunch, and more women than men, tnd for once in my life I never got to say a word. All the whole talk was "Sires, damms, gets, foals, ani this prraln couldent gc the distance, and that strain was a bit sluggish". Not a word about the Republicans or the Democrats and I coulder.t get in a word edgewise. But say those English sure do know breeding, of horses and dogs. But then there is nothing nicer than the raising of a nice animal of any discription. Those great racing stock farms out from Lexington Kentucky are the greatest sight In America. See old Man of War out there with a skin of golden chestnut that glistens glis-tens like gold in- the sun, and the old darky that takes care of him has a monologue that goes just like one of these tourist guides. He cant stop ill he is finished the whole thing. See some old sleepy looking sway ack mare with a colt tugging at her, add maby years ago 50 thousand people peo-ple were standing hollering ber name.

Say by the way 1 was working again this year when that Kentucky Derby come off 1 have never been able to make that race yet. I am always al-ways working when that race Is run. It must be a great sight. I saw the English Derby one time, I think It was 1906 and a horse named Spearmint, (1 think It was won it, but I wasent chewing much gum then and dident bet on him. I also In 1903 saw the Melbourne Cup Race run In Melbourne, Australia. We were showing there with Wlrth Brothers Circus.

It Is one of the present-day sports to "survey" everything, not neglecting neglect-ing the favorite dishes of the community, com-munity, says a recognized authority on culinary matters. I think, however, how-ever, that no questionnaires have ever been submitted to the people In regard to favorites among vegetables. vege-tables. I have, therefore, no data to give you as to their ratings, but I do guees that asparagus would receive re-ceive many votes In a survey of this sort. It seems to have been favored ever since man discovered Its culinary cul-inary possibilities, even though they took no stock In the theory--no more ridiculous than some of the food fads of today that the alkaloid In asparagus develops form In the brain and should be given to artistic artis-tic children to stimulate their ability. abil-ity. Although traditions tell us that asparagus in early Roman times grew several feet tall, It must have shrunk In slxe during the Dark ages, because we hear It described in Elizabethan times, "Garden sper-age sper-age hath at his first rising out of the ground thicke, tender shoots very soft and brittle, of the thickness thick-ness of the greatest swan's quill, In taste like the green bean, have at top a certain scaly soft bud." This reminds us of the dainty shoots from a home garden asparagus aspara-gus bed, which used to be the type of product produced there. Now, several prades are sometimes thick and short, but occasionally you find the local product thin, green, and tender. The asparagus which Is produced In the South la thick and mealy, and for this reason keeps fresh and In good condition on its long trip to northern markets. Like all other vegetables, asparagus aspara-gus must not be overcooked. I find that I get best results by retying It In several bundles, after cleaning, and putting It into an asparagus "boiler," which I manufacture by means of a top and bottom of a double dou-ble boiler. I use a cup or two of water in the bottom of the lower pan, add a dash of sugar and salt cover It tightly with the upper pan and let It cook over a low fire. If your utensils are light and do not "tit tightly,- you will need more water. wa-ter. This method steams the tops and keeps them firm. The length of time for cooking depends upon the original tenderness and the size of the stalks, but 15 to 25 minutes Is the average range of time. The sauce to serve with asparagus has always been a matter of controversy. con-troversy. There were friendly wars among epicures as to whether the "sparrow-grass"' should be dressed with butter or with oil. Now we have to decide whether we like plain butter, lemon or "black butter," and whether or not to add grated cheese, American or Parmesan. We may choose, Instead, In-stead, Hollandalse sauce or a variation vari-ation of It, or perhaps we will use browned, buttered crumbs. In some households It must always be cut In pieces, and dressed with rich milk or cream. In others a white sauce is poured over the asparagus ar ranged on toast. I have even had j it dressed with sour cream, and per i haps my favorite sauce Is that one ! made with egg yolks, sour cream ' and tarragon vinegar, which I call j "special." A cream sauco In which J f rated cheese has been dissolved or a Spanish snuce made with tomatoes toma-toes and green (toppers and onions, , cooked with olive oil, makes a still different dish of this how-ever-you- j serve-It. delicious vegetable. This time I am giving you some : special French recipes for asparagus j which you may like to try for a ' change.

I know that once you get a serious breach in this respect we may all have to work seven days a week. I certainly d not believe In that doctrine.
