TOnnibel did not sleep at all that
night. But very early in the morning

Sure" replied Tony. nodding, but
she said no more. To tell him who
the man was would mean to break the
solemn oath she had made on the
Christ to her mother.
A timid knock brought the CONVERSE
ton to close. Mrs. Curtis was ut
the threshold when Pendlehaven open
ed the door.
"Ive been looking the house over
for you. John" she began. Boys got
a headache! He said for you not to
bother to come to him, bnt to give

'Is he drunk" demanded Pendle-
haven.
Mrs. Curtis began to cry.
"John, how unkind!" she SMILED
from the haven OF her handkerchief.
"The moment the child complains ev-
erybody accuses him of drinking. No.
Of course. he isn't drunk"
For many days Reginald Curtis
tossed fitfully In bed, tortured by the
thought that he would never cease
being haunted by Tony Devon's spirit.
He dared not get up, for he was COW

rage and Uriah Devon felt his power
ebbing awaN
Tonnibel walked swiftly to Doctor
Johns side and slipped her hand INTO
his.
"ThOse two said I couldn't even say
gOod-by toto" She bowed her
head against the kindly arm that sup
ported her and for a moment was so
agitated she could not proceed.
"Hush, DEAR" pleaded Pendlehaven.
Flush! Do you want to stay here?"
ayes. oh, yes. sir, do, indeed, SIR"
she cried. "But-but-"
"Then you'll stay" the doctor told
her in a voice low-pitched and stern.

"I'm goin' to have my girl" gritted
Uriah.
"Then you lave the law ut your
hand to use. Mr.. Devon" returned the
doctor, land you, Sarah. I'll ask you
to attend to your own affairs after
this"
But, Cousin John" argued Mrs.
Curtis, "she's the mans own child.
Surely he has a right Toto"
A sound of a bell pealing through
the house cut of her words. Then
came heavy footsteps In the hall. Be
fore anyone could figure on the cause
Of this c0nnnOtiOn. the door burst
open and several uniformed men
came in. When Uriah Devon caught
sight of Them he made dash for the
window, but two heavy officers were
on him before he was half way across
the room. L took but few minutes
for the officials to explain to Doctor
Pendlehaven that they had been trail
ing Devon for long time that he
was wanted for a crime in Syracuse
When they were leading him out
manacled and deeply enraged. he
turned on Tonnibel.
"I'l get even with you, miss" he
snapped at her, his eyes full of hate,
"and I'll get even with you too, mis-
fer" He threw the last half Of his
sentence at Doctor John. whose only
reply was shrug of his shoulders.
During the struggle between the de-
tectives and Uriah Mrs. Curtis had
clutched at Pendlehavens neck, but
he had cast her off without ceremony
Now the three were alone. Tonnibel,
palpitating and fearful Mrs. Curtis,
sobbing on the floor, and Doctor John,
looking at her sternly.

Francis e. Lester grand master of
Free Masons in New Mexico.

the organizers have disappeared, a!
mysteriously as they came, from
the scenes of their recent activities
in Las Cruces and other parts of
southern New Mexico.
In this competition it will be of
interest to hear that 100 per cent
of the subordinate Masonic lodges
in New Mexico, at stated and sum
mons meetings, upheld Mr.. Lester
in his recent denunciation of the
Ku K1ux Khan. A portion of Mr..
Testers letter to Masonic lodges
was published in these columns
several weeks ago. and in neWspa-
pers served by the Associated Press,
Since then Mr.. Lester has re-
ceived communications from off,
cials of Masonic lodges in praeti-
cally every state in the union com.
mending him for his courage ana
forethought in issuing his timely
warning.
There is every reason to believe
that so far as New Mexico Is con-
cerned," Mr.. Lester said before
leaving for Chicago to attend the
executive sessions of the Masonic
Service association. 1--WE have heard
the last of the Klaners."

Just because Mumsie came OUT
She snuggled closer. II like tc

Joan is right, Malcolm. Never
do anything you fear to do before
me-" Margaret now smiled at the
embarrassed boy She had pur.
posely made Joans remark suit
her wishes.
The arm stole shyly back. Joan
a smile of eoitentment on her
face, said:
Now you may kiss me again."
Margaret was aghast. Joan was
such a little dear, but what would
she do with her II she were go
ing to ask the boys to kiss her
and that sort of thing?
Didn't l tell you you might
kiss me again!" The young voice
impatiently demanded.
Margaret sighed inwardly. Joan
was so sweet, so vivid, so abso-
lutely certain of her young self,
that the sigh was half of some
thing very like fear, half of some
thing resembling envy.
Malcolm bent his lips until they
touched Joan's.
Joan's nonchalant acceptance of
the caress treasured Margaret a
little. The girls face was a bit
flushed, but childlike innocence
looked out from her clear blue
eyes raised to her mother.
"Why don't you kiss Mumsie.
too, Malcolm?" she asked.
Obedient to a decided shove
from the blond angel at his side.
the boy rose, and with face scar
let, raised his lips to Margaret
who was a bit the taller.
Smilingly, Margaret pressed a
resounding motherly kiss on the
boys lips, and then throwing her
arm across his shoulders, she
said: .s
"That was very nice, Malcolm.
I wish Joan had a brother just
like you. We would both enjoy
it wonderfully" Then before eth
err could speak. she proposed
making lemonade, adding:
Hannah made those little cakes

also" -....
IF he doesn't he never shall kiss
me again! Come on Malcolm" and

1t is easy to imagine her making

She is also woman of forceful

"Not only the housewife, but the

reshaped with a piece of emery
board. This gives clean looking
edge again and keeps up that
freshly manicured appearance
which every woman finds so de-
sirable. 1t will also keep the nails
from growing too rapidly.
In addition to this every couple
of days you will have to clip the
sides of the nail where the nail
and the flesh grow together, with
a pair of manicure scissors. You
cannot file to the very edge OF the
nail. There is always little place
there where hang nails are apt to
grow which must be cut with the
scissors.
1t takes longer to read about
these directions than to carry them
out. It will not take much of your
time to shape the nails every day.
In addition to this you should rub
some plain cold cream or better
yet, cuticle cream, into the nail.
Let 1t stay on few moments, then
push back the skin with an orange
wood stick. Then polish. and you
will always have nice looking nails.
