Immediately an odd tiling happened to her mentally. Out of the sunshine and the frosty mists came a clear picture. She saw that beautiful mother, her white hair and her serene face touched magically by candlelight; she beard divine music. She became afire with the craving to. hear It again. A most bizarre resolve laid hold of her. Everything In her breeding, teaching, tradltioi) demanded that she dismiss this resolve.

The unwritten law of her kind forbade Betty to cross that threshold again. And she was going to cross It that very afternoon. She knew that the name of the editor of ttie Herald was Rrnwdon Cathewe. but beyond that, nothing. I am ready, site said to her father suddenly. She gathered up the reins and swung herself Into the sadle. Mansfield followed. rather startled at the abruptness. At half after two that afternoon Betty opened the gnte and hurried up to the door of the house with the white clapboards. This haste was an urgency of fear, fear that If she hesitated or looked back, she would not dare go on with the mad adventure. She rang the bell and waited.

With that remarkable insight to character which was his, he had read this girl aright the first time. She was desirable. After playing several more selections, Mrs. Cathewe left the seat and knelt before the music case, a piece of beautiful Florentine marquetry. Presently she held up a sheet of music so that Betty could see the title. It was one of exquisite songs. Lo you know that?" u What Are You Going to Do About Cathewe?"

I took a rejected sheet out of the waste basket and carried It off." By the way, Nancy, have you got that sheet of manuscript with you?" he asked. She gave it to him. He went Into the study and returned shortly. Across the face of the manuscript lie hud "From George Cottar to written: Nancy Maddox, his friend." Thanks. What beautiful script you write!" That's because Im fussy. When 's I cross out a word, I generally throw the sheet away. . A scandalous waste of paper, but I cant help It Heres that mother o' mine." When she returned home,' Nancy ran straight to her room, turned on the light, and got out that precious From George page of manuscript Cottar to Nancy Maddox, his friend. Having possessed a guilty conscience regarding the theft of the sheet, she had not dared scrutinize It heretofore. She hud. been ashamed to take It out of the drawer. But. now she had a right. Sd she read the page through, and presently was struck by the curious method by which Cathewe concluded his sentences. A little cross, resembling an x. Now, what did that stir In her mind? A cross, resembling the little x. But the riddle remained unsolved. That night a new phase of the drama unrolled. Cathewe was at his desk as usual, reading some proofs.

CHAPTER VII The Doctor Speaks. Cathewe rocked in his swivel chair for a moment. Mr. White," he said frankly, I dont want this repeated to a soul. This Is a personal affair between Mansfield and his daughter. But the whole town will hear of It, selling property to his daughter through a dummy, protested the cub. No. Its a good story, but we cant use It." And with a pleasant nod he dismissed the disappointed cub. Cathewe laid his pipe on his desk and crossed over to the window, from which he stared at the November stars. He wondered how Mansfield had failed to see how tiie town would interpret tills equivocal sale of property. The ironmonger was disliked so heartily that folk would be only too happy to attribute the worst to him, that of mulcting his daughter of her personal fortune. He begnn to feel sorry for Mansfield. for he' saw what Mansfield was soon to lose. With a crystal soul like Bettys, love must have its founda--tio- n upon respect. Tear tills away, and the whole edifice must topple. At three oclock that morning he stole up the patli to the Maddox front door and pushed a letter through the slot. And the doctor read this remarkable letter while at the breakfast table: I honestly feel sorry for him. You go up to him and urge him to confess about this real estate transaction. Impress upon him that the town will Interpret the deal as a desire on his part to absorb his daughters fortune. Keep me out of It, of course. I could use this weapon with profound effect if I were a first-rat- e scoundrel. Go to him as soon as you can." Three days later Maddox showed Mansfield the letter, and said: There Is a chance, if you tell her; there Is none. If you dont. Murder will out. Youve called this young chap a scoundrel. He Is an honest man." "John," the magnate answered, the money Betty paid for that property goes hack Into it two fold.

Well, what are you going to do atamt Cuthewe? pursued Maddox. TO Bffi CONTINUED.) j BAYER ASPIRIN years have now passed EIGHT the last shot was fired in the World war.
