scrupplous and secret enemy whom
Roger Marchurst hoped, for sake
Of Lissmere's possessions, TO ex-
pose!
But there was no likelihood of
success. For what answer could
Roger Marchurst or Barr or the
cleyerest, boldest. most astute
mind make to the declaration with
which the adventurer, challenged

knew that very surely.
It was as though she had en-
tered some warm, soft, fragrant
sea; gentle. half-drowsy sea of
healing whose caressing waves had
power to pervade, to saturate one,
body and soul, with sheer content-
ment.
She was satisfied, and her secret
fear, like her secret doubt, had
vanished. She had taken, she was
still taking, grave risk. but, close
in his arms, Tapped in that en-
chanted languorous sea of content,
the risk about which she had pom
dered so long and fearfully faded,
diminished, thinned and, like wind
driven fog or vapor, died out and
disappeared.
She drew his head, down and
began to kiss him strange. half
painful kisses Of relief, gratitude,
loveand > growing passion.
"Oh, but / could weep for love
of you, Dick" she whispered.
He laughed a little TREMENDOUSLY.
II, too, dearest" he half NUT
tered.
But then waiter, bringing tea,
knocked, and they must smile in
stead.
That, too, they found easy.
Three weeks later they were,
married quietly at a register Of
fee, Roger Marchurst and John
Barr being the only witnesses.
Louise was radiant. What the
sun is to a flower so happiness is
to beauty. She had conquered
Roger Marchurst at their hrst
meeting.
He congratulated Dick again
after the marriage. :
She is very sweet and beauti-,
full and as good as she is beauti-
full, Dick he said. "You have
been fortunate.
He dropped his voice q little
Louise was talking to Barr near
J the window Of the dingy office
"she has known q great deal Of
unhappiness in the past i see
that. But you have both locked
away the past2"
Dick nodded.
'sYes.s' he said, with . certain
eagerness. I'VE have never dis
Ncussed either mine or hers. She
wishes itas much as I. IL only
the past has finished with as Is
completely as we hope to have nm
ished with the past we shall be
happy"
Old Roger had nodded, hesi-
tated, as though to say something
more; then changed his mind and
said nothing.
He shook hands and turned to
Louise.
They were both too excited to
be critical or closely observant.
and neither sensed the vague UNI
ease which, in spite of his real
pleasure, Roger could not wholly
Danish from his manner.
He watched the big car glide
away on it's long run to Lissmere
Hall, to which they were going at
once, and turned to the gray
haired solicitor.
"We must take care that no
complications arise to spoil what
has begun so well, you and /,
Barr" he said slowly. "And I
fear it i. not going to be easy.
Still. one does what one can. It
will be all right-in the long run"
81 trust sol trust So" but
the lawyers voice was no more
confident than that Of Roger
Marchurst.
"At any rate, there's this-they
love each other with all their
hearts. That will help-don't you
agree?"
cit will conquer anything-to
marry for love is to build a palace
upon a foundation of rock" said
Barr warmly. "Let them preserve
their love and they are invincible.
/ am not sure of many things at
my age-but l am very sure of
that"
Old Roger glanced at him, side
long.
"Well, / am only an old bache-
lor-but you should know, Hank
ness. You made love match. l

So the weeks passed.

SO the weeks passed..
Trustees were appointed to act
for the missing man and the bene-
ficiaries under his will, but it was
not possible yet to gain legal per-
mission to assume his death. Her
own financial affairs were quickly
put in order-she steadfastly re-
fused to accept any form of al
lowance from Charles Lammarsh's
estate. Though not rich woman
she had ample means.
She set out from the great LAM
marsh house in New York which
had so long been her home-or
prison-upon round of visits to
her relatives and closest friends,
but she never finished that round.
Half way through it her longing
for even one more hour like those
Luxor hours would no longer be
denied. Indeed, she made no eff
fort to check it, but gladly yielded.
She booked her passage to Eng
land, telegraphed to Dick from
Liverpool and came on to London.
On the boat people. glancing at
her clothes, believed her to be q
widow, and she was content that
they should believe this.
She never forgot that voyage.
It was to her in the nature Of q
last attempt for happiness. Not
without many tremors of the spirit
she had decided to presume that
her husband was dead. She would
marry Lord Lissmere and take the
risk of Charles Lammarsh reap
pearing.
81 shall never be happy if ] re-
main as / am" she told herself,
"and l shall be happy with Dick
some of the time il / marry him.
And if Charles appears again he
can do no more than divorce me
and throw me back again into my
present misery. / shall take that
risk. It is the only way can
think OF"
She had wondered throughout
the voyage whether she really
would have the courage to keep
her resolution of allowing Dick to
believe her widow. but now her
doubts were past and done with.
She had not shrunk from her
course.
She was standing by attable ar
ranging some flowers with tremb-
ling hands, and dressed as though
she were on the point of going
out, when he was shown in.
He was silent for a moment,
staring, taking in her mourning;
then came across quickly to where
she stood, little and lovely, pale,
her eyes dark and dilated.
''I came as quickly as / could,
my dear-my DEAR" he said, took
her in his arms and drew her close.
For space of seconds she was
completely passive. Her eyes were
closed and she was very still in his
arms. Then suddenly her hands
went up to his shoulders.
"Oh, Dick, / have been so lone
ly and unhappy" she cried.
He crushed her close.
"But that's all finished now," he
told her. "You-we-are going to
be happy now. 1t will be better
than Luxor, oh, my dear, if you
knew how empty everything has
been for me since / came to Eng
land. Never mind. Kiss me now.
/ will make you happy, my dear.
will think of nothing except how
to make you happy"
A little color stole into her
cheeks and she smiled family. If
she had retained any shred of
doubt that she loved him it was
utterly gone now. She had known
during her married life so little Of
love that she had been mistrustful,
doubtful of it, when it had come

registers Of deeds and other who
may apply for one, on or about
the 25th Of December. The time
allotted for re-registration under
the new law is reduced. To
avoid penalties for delayed regis
tration, applications must be
made on or before February ID.
Under the new law the registrar
has absolutely no authority to
waive penalties and there can
therefore be no extension OF
time. Penalties will begin on
February 16 at the rate Of 25c a
day for the first 20 days and 81
a month thereafter for each
month or fraction thereof not to
exceed 5 months. This means
a total maximum possible of SIS

Under the present law . list
price Of $500 IS the highest that
will permit a minimum tax Of
SIP. Under the new law S435 is
the highest list price that will
allow a minimum Of $l2. This
will result in a change Of classif-
cation for 1924 so that many cars
that have carried the "A" number
plates this year will next year
carry "B" plates.
Under the new law. the 1924
tax will be based on the factory
list price in effect November l.
1923 for all corresponding models
similar to those still being manu-
featured. Through this change
on account of the 1879 deprecia-
tion allowed for each OF the first
seven years Of the motor vehicle
life. there will be a gradual de-
crease corresponding with the
age Of the car. The effect is
well illustrated in the following

is not concerned with the reasons
for the high freight tariffs.

the bill and he knows that in

shoulders without consulting
him. Now. with the war period
passed and the farm price level

solved by the same factors that
