"By motor? George Yes. But you surely wouldnt let the girl drive If there was likelihood of danger." "No, but you could drive yourself, once you knew the way. "Oh. yes. Well, go with her to the village and to the bank, where she will cash a check and Introduce you to the cashier. Then tomorrow shell take you tip the river. Have you told her this? Not yet. . Why? "Its barely possible she may have made arrangements of her own. Shell change that If I ask her, her father said easily. "Ah Sir George was not aware himself of how much he put In that Ah." It was sufficient to make Bohert MacBeth turn his head quickly and survey the young man. Having turned It he saw that the young man's eves were fixed on a spot of blue. MacBeth was presently able to observe that this was a car on the high road over on the mainland and that opposite that car was a dim blur that had a bronze He remembered the color of color. the dress his daughter Imd been wearing that morning and turned his head so that the younger man might not see his face. Sir George continued to ' ' ' "W watch the bronze blur until It took shape and outline and began to look like Boberta MacBeth. Then he started, aware that the silence had been long. "You were saving? That Ill tell Boberta what I want as soon as she crosses the river. Or will you meet her nnd tell her I want to see her? And take yourself off for a time. Absolutely. Sir George sauntered toward the river and met the flushed and exultant looking girl. "Spj ing? Ills look was enough to make her feel ashamed of herself. Oh, I say, she said. "That was unfair nnd I didnt really mean It. It doesnt Sir George did not stop. Your father matter," he slild stiffly. Is waiting to see you." The girl angrily kicked a rock off Well, if the towpath into the canal. you want to he hateful, be hateful. He turned. "If you would only get it into your extraordinarily pretty little head, he told her not unkindly, that Im here because I have to earn my living and your father has been good enough to give me a post thats that. As for you and your friends, at the risk of being thought rude, I tell you that I dont give a tinkers d n whom you meet or where you meet him, and thats all of that. There had been a quickly drawn breath and then silence and he had walked on over the canal bridge to the highway, feeling completely ashamed of himself. Why had he lost Ids temper? Ilis remorse gaining on him, he was about to turn once more when the sound of flying footsteps came to him. He turned to confront an angry girl, who told him and vehemently : "Youve Just got to know flame-cheeke- d this. You don't hate nte one degree less or more than I hate you. Well, since we know Its mutual, said Sir George evenly, suppose we go on hating each other as much as we like In private, and keep a friendly He smiled smile to face the world. at her now. Oh, youre hateful ! the girl cried. when I meant to be decent to you for fathers sake, you make It I promise you Ill do Impossible. Just anything I can to speed your return to bonnle Scotland." Ah, returned the homesick Sir George, his heart In his voice, if you only could. The girl looked at him speechless a moment and yet she did not go. lie wondered why, but almost before he had done wondering he suddenly saw the answer to his question. The blue car was some little way ahead of him, on the cross road to the highway, nnd its owner was struggling frantically to start It. That was why she thought he was spying; that was why she would not, if she could help it, leave him alone. He continued to walk toward the car and to speak so that the man, whoever he was, might hear. Surely you dont want to annoy your father and have him question you, do ydu? As for the blue car and Its owner, he continued, "it Is hardly my affair. The ntan at the car jerked his head up and nodded to the girl and then quickly turned his back and busied tree-shade- d 4iimself with the car again. Sir George waited for a moment. Surely any decent sort would be likely to come over and speak make It easy for the girl to introduce him. The man, however, after that one look hurried back to work at the car, his face resolutely turned from Sir George. The girl, looking first at one and therf at the other, slowly turned and went toward her father's house. Sir George walked away past the car. What sort of clump and awful person that little devil had elected as hero of her secret romance, he now had a pretty fair Idea.

The most familiar Bible reference to salt Is in Genesis ix. 20, In which Lot's wife was turned into a pillar ff that valuable commodity probably to the great enjoyment of the goats, sheep and cattle of that district. The next most familiar Bible refer enee to salt is that In Matthew v, 13 If the salt has lest his savor, where with shall It he salted?" Other ref erences In the New Testament are Mark lx, 49 50, and (olosslans iv, 6. Homer, $00 yeais before Christ, speaks of salt in the Greek sacrificial rites; no sacrifice was complete with out It. Herodotus, who was bom in 4S4 B. C., says the Egyptians ate salted food. Including raw flab that was first steeped In brine and then sun dried. They must have been exactly like the Gloucester salt fish of today, or the Brovincetown scull joes. The Lgyptians nlso ate raw duck and flnail, salted in similar fashion. Itos-tuGlobe.
