the ferocity OF wild cat! She tore

Mr.. Morrison didn't look much better.
The woman presented the appearance
of a witch or an insane creature,
wearing a dainty dressing gown which
was terribly torn and soiled.
Seeing her husband trying weakly
to stand on his feet, she rushed to him
and put her arms affectionately about
his neck. Dear! Dear!" she exclain-

Meanwhile Morrison had tried the

managed finally to hnd one that he

men crawled in stealthily. They felt
around for the electric switch but were
unable to locate it, and neither of

They managed to make their way in

stood out alone separated from other
buildings. Hardly had he touched the
doorbell when T. Sen opened the door
and bade his visitor enter.
Tucker found himself in a large

ponderous volumes, and on one side a

be hiding something behind Its thick
folds.

arm chair. He gazed steadily into
fuckers eyes, while he brought up an
other chair directly in front of his
visitor, and sat down. He lit cigar

or four minutes saying nothing but
simply gazing steadily at Tucker.

But where is the woman?" asked
DR.. Stiles.
Hardly had he spoken these words
when a white form slowly emerged
from out of the wall as it were, but in
reality from a closet where she had
been roughly thrown by the intruder.

hands. You have killed my husbandI

and walked toward Tucker. He was a
striking figure, tall and erect. and
wore black suit, high straight collar
and black tie He looked prosperous
and professional. Passing fuckers

and smiled broadly, showing his peal
white teeth, and Immediately strode
out of the restaurant.

The man pondered the card as he
turned it over In his hand. At FIRST
he was inclined to treat 1t all as a

face haunted him and he felt strange
and unnatural.

at the sky. the Towering fields, the pin

bristling with pins in the shape OF
rocks.
In this way she passed the signpost
that led to the eggs, or rather White-
foot passed 1t for her. He seemed to
have a well defined idea in his head,
and suddenly he began to trot hope
fully, eagerly. When at last Lois be-
gan to miss the signpost, which she
had been told to look out for she was
a good mile beyond 1t. Country dis
tances were as X to her. She judged
that the post might arrive in view any
moment. anyway. whitefoot seemed
to know what he was about. She
could trust him.
After much longer time had passed
1t occurred to her to glance at her
wrist watch. 1t was 430. Half past
four! Why, she had been on the road
since 8! 1t couldn't take all that time
to get to the Brownies. Especially as

Lois had had great horror OF nerves |;
she had seen the passes they brought
people to. What did life amount to
when ones flesh was threaded with a
million quivering wires that convert
ed every sound. thought, or sight into
misery? The old doctor had spoken
kindly but very plainly when he said:
There are two ways open to you. You
can either dope your nerves with bro
mide or its ilk. or you can take a
rest. 1, of course, advise the rest
absolute rest There's a cure in rest.
In the other there's only palliative.
''I'll take the rest" Lois replied with
out hesitation.
Lois took two days In which to be-
come acquainted with her steed. It
required some courage for her to ap-
proach this high-hipped creature.
Levi. the boy who did the circular
work" as Lois called It, had straight
way fallen in love with whitefoot

Queerest feller.
John Wellsi Lois recalled the lank
towheaded lad who had hung SO per-
sistently around Aunt Matty's when
ever she was there. She had often
wondered what had become of him.
The memory of his shy attempts to
court her fingered with her sweet and
pure as the fragrance of Aunt Matty's
lavender scented linen. Life had not
presented Lois with any other lover.
Romance had fed before the click of
her typewriter, the scratch of her
fountain pen.
One afternoon Lois told Levi to
hitch whitefoot to the old blackboard
and bring him to the door. she had got
track of some wyandotte setting eggs
over the phone and was going after
them
Before she had gone a mile she dis
covered that Whitefoot knew every
step of the way If she did not. She let

for that purpose. But whitefoot re-
fused to rein In. In fact. the harder
she pulled on the lines the faster he
went. She jerked and whoaed; White
foot racked faster. Lois braced her
feet to keep In the sagging blackboard.
A horrible thought flashed upon her.
whitefoot was running away! She
would be killed or shattered. Heavens! +!
What should she do? Scream for help
with no one to hear? There was not
a house in sight. Yes, there was one
beyond the covered bridge! And
whitefoot was unmistakably making
for it. Through the bridge they clat-
tered, up the hill, with the breeching
loose. Lois was white now She hung
to the lines more from desperation
than from any will to stay the flying
horse. They turned a corner on two
wheels, then suddenly whitefoot
