The situation became tense. Come, Mother," coaxed Marv. "what's up? You've been grouching sweetly for several days, you know. ive got to know sooner or later, so let it be now."

Mary gave a little gasp of nstonish- ment and sat down on the floor by the couch.

More sales now message of warning brought about Ida death and In consequence Thebes became one of the greatest cities of Greece, and Sparta, overlord of the country, was humiliated. Thebes had been delivered into the hands of Spurta by the treason of Leonilades, a polemarch of the city, who opened Its gates and delivered the Thehans to their foes before they were able to strike a blow. Prominent Thehans fled to Athens where a little group of patriots began plotting to recover their city. Armed resistance was beyond their power and discouragement settled upon them. At Thebes Llontiades and his friends, Archins, Phllippus and ruled with the support of a Spartan garrison. One night while A renins and riiilippus were feasting, a message was delivered to Archlas containing news that seven conspirators had arrived In Thebes nnd would visit him disguised as dancing girls intending to slay him and his guest, Phllippus. The messenger Insisted that the missive was urgent, but Archlas declined to read It, declaring that he was bent on pleasure and business could wait until tomorrow. Into. the mom were led three "highborn damsels" and four attendants, garbed as females. A rchias selected one nnd raised her veil to behold a bearded face. Before he could exclaim In surprise, a dagger was thrust to his heart. Phllippus fared likewise, as did a third guest, who attempted to Interfere. The seven conspirators, among whom were Pelopidas and Epamln-ondnwho were later to become famous as the leaders of the great revolt of all Greece against Sparta, then hurried to the home of llontiades, whom they billed In the presence of his wife, and then to the home of nypates who fled to the roof where he, too, was slain. Next morning news of the tyrants' deaths spread through the city and the citizens arose to expel the Spartan garrison. The achievement of the daring conspirators had given Thebes Its freedom and all the liberty-lovincities of Greece were Inspired to rise and throw off the yoke of Sparta. of a and more people are asking: "Why should my used car seem to have several values? . . . Why should dealers in different makes of cars offer me allowances differing materially? . . . Does the largest allowance offered mean the best deal forme?" Here are basic facts: 1 Your used car has seemingly different values ' because competitive dealers are bidding to sell you a new car. 2 Your used car has only one fundamental basis of value: what the dealer w ho accepts it in trade can get for it in the used car market. The largest trade-i- n allowance which is offered on y our used car is not necessarily the best deal for you. Sometimes it is; but some-limit is not. Hy-pat- 3 es 4 An excessive allowance may mean that you ere paying en excessive price for the new car in comparison with its real value. 5 s, When you are ready to trade-i- n your present car, remember that after all you are making a purchase and not a sale. You are buying a new car and simply applying your present car as a credit toward the purchase price of the new car. GENE RAX MOTORS g "A CHEVROLET Wall of Athens, for years the bulwark of her power at last became the cause of the city's downfall, Inviting Into the city a foe far more terrible than the cruel and hardy Spartans. The Peloponnesian war followed the expulsion of the Persians from Greece. Fierce rivalry sprang up between the late allies, Athens and .Sparta. Pericles, the Athenian sage, counseled dependence upon the maritime supremacy of Athens. The fleet was maintained on a high standard of numbers and efficiency. To render Impotent the great army of Sparta, Athens strengthened her great wall, making It Impregnable against ancient methods of siege. Year after year, the Spartan army advanced into Attica, laying waste the country, compelling farmers to take refuge In the city and then laying siege to Athens. It was a hopeless business. Snugly safe behind their great wall and protected at sea by their great fleet, the Athenians carried on commerce without hindrance. The city strong boxes contained a mighty store of treasure and provisions came regularly from across the sea. Spartans might rage and threaten in vain. Athenians laughed and Jested with their powerless foes. Put there came a yenr wiien the Spartans received aid from an unexpected and terrible source. The Spartans had Invaded Attica as usual about the time crops were ripening in the fields. The space within the walls wns crowded. Many families took refuge In a single house. Then ships from Asia brought the plague. The disease resembled the sninll- pox of modem times. It descended upon Its victims suddenly and usually killed them within n week. Those who survived were left Idiots or cripples. Primitive cures, consisting chiefly tif charms and sacrifices, failed utterly. Among the victims was Pericles. The Spartan army withdrew to a distance In fear of confaglon. For two years the plague raged nnd then a year and a half later it came again. Crime and Immorality followed In Its wake and the greatness of Athens was laid low.
