with the scar over his eye. He's look
ing up at our windows in the hotel"
Maud lodges back in frightened way.
But Barnes is already cautiously TAX
ing cognizance from another window
of the man whose scar Identifies him
in the throng of passersby on the Rue
Noailles. The gentleman he gazes upon
Is, though actively built, lounging past
with pair of flashing eyes alertly yet
intently fixed upon some window of
the hotel near where Burton is stand
ing.
Dressed in the deep mourning of
southern France, a high Corsican hat
lends picturesqueness to his costume.
A certain family likeness suggests to
Barnes that this man. though nearly
Is years younger. is the half brother
of the dead Count Musso Danella. Sud
denly the man responds to something
he has seen in one OF the windows of
the hotel by nasty sneering grin.
What did he see in the Window"
thinks Barnes, and to Maud's aston
ishment bolts from the room, runs
down the stairs of the hotel and
passes through the Office into the
street.
In the throng of the rather crowded
Rue Noailles he fails to find this man
he now feels quite certain must be
Corregio Danella.
Then the American glances up at
the windows Of the hotel and at the
third from that in which he had been
standing, the one he knows is Marina's
chamber. he sees the bride of Edwin
Anstruther staggering away.
Can it be possible that Edwin's
wife has given this man some signal
from her window that caused his tri-
umph?'
A moments consideration effaces
devoted to her husband than the bride
of Edwin Anstruther. Whatever the
ayitated girl has done is intended for
her husbands safety. What can that
be-"
A second later, he thinks, it must
have merely been some sign Of woe
or fear that had produced the triumph
of Corregio Danella.
This reminds Barnes of Marina's re-
ouest to see him. Il will find out from
Mrs. Anstruther the contents OF that
deyilish letter this astute distractor of
matrimonial bliss sent her." he THINKS.

A Girls Giqqle.

Samuel Shadweil. a touchy old man
living in an Indiana village. had
pane of glass broken in his house one
night not long ago and next day he
had a -yearold girl named Minnie
Dayton arrested for it.
When the case was called in court
he was asked how he knew it was
Minnie. He admitted that he didnt
see her, but heard her giggle. When
asked II her giggle was different from
that of any other girl he said it was,
but he couldn't tell why. NeitheA
could he initiate the giggle. and he
lost his case.
We all know what a girls giggle Is,
but If any of us were asked to give an
imitation of it we'd probably fail. A
boy may litter, but when it comes to
giggling only a girl can do that.

Nut Growing Industry Of the South

Nut growing is a comparatively
new industry in the south Atlantic
and Gulf states, butit promises to de-
yelop into one of the most important
in that section" said j. q. Reid, a
prosperous planter of Florida. The
most popular nut is the pecan, and its
popularity is probably due to the de-
yelopment of systematic methods OF
grading it and cracking it with ma
chinery operated by steam or electric
power This makes possible the mar
keting of the meats of the nut ready
for use.
The demand is always much great
er than the supply and many planters
are now turning their attention to the
nut raising industry. 1t is not un-
common for tree to bear as high as
200 pounds of nuts in one season and
most of these sell at from so to 20
cents a pound. 1t does not require
much figuring to show that the pecan
orchards which abound in some Sec
tions are paying investments

A moment after Anstruther says, in
loud tone intended for his brides

darkly himself; adding assuringly:
You must pick up courage. my dear
girl. You faced greater trial only
two days ago"
Her answer confuses and astounds
her interrogator. Faced a greater
trial?" she says piteously. Perhaps
in one way" After this she gasps for
a moment and suddenly cries: Then
you haven't read the letter.
