Tomb Of Mohammed Looted.

Intense indignation has been aroused
throughout the Mussulman world by
the sacrilege of the Turkish govern
ment, which seized the jewels and
money which the faithful in the course
of centuries have deposited on the
tomb of Mohammed. Among these
treasures are large number of
precious stones, including the famous
diamond known as the "Shining STAR
which the Turkish government has
carried away. This stone is valued at
more than one and one-half million
dollars.

The feeling was none the less real

THE BIG STEP

Most romantic fiction ends
with the hero and heroine about
to marry and "live happy ever
After" The author of this UNI
usual serial begins his story
with marriage and carries the
romance for period Of several
years into the realm Of 'double
harness" Taking a couple from
the well-to-do scale of the
Middle West social scheme, Mr..
Webster uses them to bring out
some Of the important problems
confronting a great many young
men and women who enter the
bonds Of matrimony in these
days Of equal suffrage, Of wom-
en- who'd rather work down
town than stay ut home, and Of
new complications in the busi-
ness of raising Il family. 1.-THE
Real Adventure" is thoroughly
alive with action. You will en-
JOY the story not only for it's ro-
nance but for the element in 1t
that will make you think-and
ponder the intimate happenings
in your own family and in the
families Of your neighbors.

door opened-a voice with a crisp ring
to it that sounded always younger than
his years. What they heard the but
Ter say to him was disconcerting.
''You're terribly wet, sir!"
Frederick turned on her husband a
look of despair. "He's walked through
that rain! Do run down and send
him up to me. I can imagine how he'll
look.'
She was mistaken about that,
though. For once Frederick had over
estimated her powers. stimulated
though they were by the way she heard
her husband say:
"Praise heaven you can wear my
clothes. Run along upstairs and break
yourself gently to Freddy"
She heard him come squudging up
the stairs and along the hall, and
then in her doorway she saw him. His
baggy gray tweed suit was dark with
water and toned down by a liberal
stipple Of mud spatters. Both his side
pockets had been, apparently, strained
to the utmost to accommodate what
looked like a bunch of pasteboard-
bound notebooks, now far on the way
to their original pulp, and Topped de-
spondently outward. A melancholy
pool had already begun forming about
his feet. His face, above the dis.
mol wreck, beamed good-humored, In
nocent affection at her. It was a
big-featured, strong, rosy face, and the
unmistakable intellectual power of 1t,
which became apparent the moment
he got his faculties into action, had
a trick Of hiding, at other times, behind
a mere robust simplicity.
"Good gracious!" he said. II didn't
know you were going to have a party.

CHAPTER u.

What Happened to Frederica's Plan.
At twenty-seven minutes after seven
that evening, Frederick Whitney was
about ten minutes before the hour at
which she had invited guests to dinner
not quite near enough dressed to
prevent feeling that she had to
hurry. Ordinarily she didn't mind. To
Frederick at thirty, the job Of being
a radiantly delightful object of regard
lacked the sporting interest Of IN
certainty-was almost too simple a
matter to bother about.
But tonight she wished she'd started
half an hour earlier. Even her hus-
band discovered it. He brought in a
cigarette, and stood smiling down at
her with the complacent look that
characterizes married man of forty
when he finds himself dressed in eve
ming harness ten minutes before his
wife. She shot glance Of rueful in
curry at him, and asked him what time
it was.
"Seven twenty-five thirty-six," he
told her. She made no comment ex-
cept with her eyebrows, but he must
have been looking ut her, for he want.

the excitement was about.
"You could 60 down as you are
and not a man here tonight would

women-well. If they have something
on you for once. they'll be all. the
better pleased"

II laughed" she said, because you
have been deceived" And she added
quickly, II don't believe it's quite so
deep on the sidewalk, is it?" With
that she waded away toward the curb.
He followed, then led the way to
a lee wall that offered, comparatively
speaking, shelter. Then, "Where's the
deception?" he asked.
On any other day, it's probable she'd
have acted differently-would have
paid some heed, though a bit con-
temptously, perhaps, to the precepts Of
ladylike behavior, in which she'd been
admirably grounded. Today being to-
day, she consigned ladylike considera-
lions to the inventor Of them, and
gave instinct its head.
She laughed again as she answered
his question: "The deception was that
pretended to do it from principle.
The real reason why I shouldn't pay
another fare is that only had one
more nickel. It's only about half a
mile to the station, but from there
home it's ten. So you see I'd rather
walk this than that"
"But that's DREADFUL" he cried.

that. It's just one of the silly things

Maroon. :" She didn't laugh
audibly, but without seeing her face
he knew she smiled, the quality of her
voice enriching itself somehow. t.
"And ate bigger lunch than usual,
and that brought me down to ten
cents"
'You will make complaint about
that, won't you?" he urged. "Even If
it wasn't on principle that you refused
to pay another fare? And let me back
you up in it. I've his number, you
know"
"You deserve that, I suppose" she
said, because you did get off the car
on principle. But-well, really, unless
we could prove that I paid my fare,
they'd probably think the conductor
did exactly right. OF course he took
hold of me, but then-well, think what
I did to him!"
He grumbled that this was nom
sense-the man had been guilty at least
Of excessive zeal-but he didn't urge
her, any further, to complain.
"There's another car coming" he
now announced. peering around the
end Of the wall. you will let me
pay your fare on 1t, won't you?'
She hesitated. The rain was thin

miss it." She thrust out her hand.
"Good-by!"

saw what you did to the conductor.
I haven't the least doubt you could
have thrown him off the car. But
I'd-really like it very much If you
would let me walk along with you"
"Why," she said, "of course. I'd
like it, too. Come along!"

begged his pardon. and assured him

Shed try to DO better.
Another girl who had been waiting
to speak to the professor, perceiving
that their conversation was at an end,
came and stood beside her at the desk
"a scrawny girl with an eager voice,
and question she wanted to ask about
Robespierre; and for some reason
or other, Rosalind Stanton's valedic-
tory smile seemed to include con-
seriousness Of this other girl-a con-
seriousness Of contrast. It might not
have been any more than that, but
somehow it left the professor feeling
that he had given himself away.
| There is nothing cloistral about the
University Of Chicago except its
architecture. AS she went out Rose
felt that the presence Of q fat abbot
or lady prioress in the corridor
outside the recitation-room would have
fitted in admirably with the look Of
the warm gray walls and the carven
pointed arches of the window and
door easements, the blackened oak of
the doors themselves.
She wasn't fully conscious of it on
this March morning, but something
had happened that made a difference.
If she'd been ascending an impercep-
tlble gradient for the past months,
today she had come to recognizable
step up and taken it. Oddly enough,
the thing had happened back there in
the classroom as she stood before the
professors desk and caught his eye
wavering between herself and the
scrawny girl who wanted to ask a
question about Robespierre. There
had been more than blank, helpless
evaporation in that look Of his, and
it had taught her something. She
couldn't have explained what.
She went swinging along alone, her
shoulders back, confronting the warm
March wind, drawing long breaths into
her good deep chest. She had just
had, psychically speaking, birthday.
She played wonderful game Of
basketball that afternoon, and it was
after five o'clock when, at the con-
clusion Of the game and cold shower,
Il rub, and somewhat casual re-
sumption of her clothes, she emerged
from the gymnasium. High time that
she took the quickest way of getting
home. unless she wanted to be late for
dinner.
But the exhilaration of the day per-
sisted. She felt like doing something
out of the regular routine. Even a
preliminary walk Of q mile or so before
she should cross over and take the
elevated, would serve to satisfy her
mild hunger for adventure.
So, with her notebooks under her
arm and her sweater-jacket unfasten-
ed. at good four-mile swing she
started north. In the purlieus of the
university she was frequently hailed
by friends Of her own sex or the other,
But though she waved cheerful re-
sponses to their greetings, she made
