The poets entire life was influenced

much like her. Mrs. Browning, like
Elizabeth Barrett, was an invalid.

daughteri n-law, she was a woman of
fine feeling and much poetic insight.
Only, whereas Robert Browning's wife
gave voice to this poetic insight, his
pother did not. transferring all her
articulateness to Robert, the older
of her two children.
1t was not only the inherited feel

ARRIVED IN CITY
SUNDAY EVENING

Sergi Rachmaninoff, Russian COM
poser and pianist, who is to give a
concert at the Jefferson theatre Mon
day night arrived in Birmingham
late Sunday afternoon in his private
car from Jacksonville, Fla.
With Rachmaninoff are his wife,
private secretary, a piano tuner, valet
and chef. After completing his Bir-
mingham engagement the famous ar
list will leave for New Orleans, where
he appears Tuesday evening.
In bringing Rachmaninoff to Biz
mingham the Birmingham Music
Teachers association believes they are
offering local music lovers one of the
greatest opportunities in many sea-
sons said Mrs. E. r., Rice of the
association.
"Rachmaninoff is considered
throughout the world as the leading
pianist of our time, and one of the
greatest composers, and it is surely
a wonderful treat for students of
the piano as we'll as concert goers
in general to be able to hear this
truly great artist,
what is the correct pronuncf-
alton of the pianist's name who APP
pears at the Jefferson Monday?" is
a question that has been asked at the
jefferson theatre and in many music
stores since the announcement was
made of the noted Russians appear
-ance here.
The correct pronunciation is
"Rakh- NAH neeh-neff," with the ac-
cent on the third syllable, according
to his secretary.

You had better rum the funny
little man cried For If come down
there I shall box your earsl" And he
pretended that he was coming down
to get them This frightened the
Knight very much and he shook so
hard it made his armor rattle like
l6 dishpans.
Il believe / will run. just little
bit" the Knight said to Raggedy
Andy.
POOH Raggedy Andy replied
Don't YOU be afraid Mister Knight.
II he tries to box your ears. he Will
only hurt his hands, for your helmet
covers your ears completely
Then, I'll twitch his nose! the
funny little man promised.
There, you seei" the Knight said.
Il don't care to have my nose
twitched! So 1 believe that / shall
runi'
"Fraidy calf" laughed the funny
little man.
I'm not afraidr the Knight re-
Piled. But / do not care to have
you witch my nosel"
You had better throw my magical
wooden sword out the window to me-
Tragedy Andy told the funny little
nan. For, if you don't, 1 shall
come inside and get it!'
Hal Just you come inside and
I'll box your ears!" the little man
cried.
Il haven't any earsm Raggedy
Andy replied.
Then I'll twitch your nose!' cried
the little man.
"Ha! Hai Ha" Raggedy Andy
laughed. Il haven't any nose to
witch! 1t is just painted on my
face, So you can't do single thingl"
Anyway, | shan't give you the
magic sword" the little man said.
And. besides, I've locked the door
so that you can't get int"
Il guess we had better run home"
the Knight whispered to Raggedy
Andy. THE wooden sword wasn't any
good, anyhow"
Indeed, it was" Raggedy Andy
replied. And / shall get it back
again, tool"
So Raggedy Andy sat down under
the tree and thought and thought of
some way to do SO that he might
get his magical wooden sword away
from the funny little man.

Zone Trick a Day
4 MYsrnnIous co1N BOX

A small metal box, you might get
it at your druggists, just about large
enough to hold half-dollar. is passed
around for examination. A halfdollar
is placed in it, shaken to show that
it is really there; the coin drops out
in the hand, apparently having fallen
through the bottom
The effect is produced when the
performer places the cover on the
box. The box is resting on the fingers
of the left hand and the cover is held
between the thumb and forefinger of
the right hand, but just before plae
ing the cover on, the box is turned
over with the right thumb, and the
cover is placed on the bottom of
the box instead OF the top. 1t can
be shaken now, as the coin is be-
tween the palm of the hand and the
box and this makes the deception
complete.
It is good plan to hide the box
with the right hand when placing
the cover on it, although this is not
absolutely necessary.

1--WE may as well go inside the
magic castle and wait until Raggedy
Andy and the knight return
Marggy's Daddy said. For we can
be eating our lunch and drinking
magic SODA water and playing with
the magic games until they return
So Raggedy Andy and the Knight
set off through the woods and
walked and walked until they came
to where the funny little man had
taken the magic wooden sword away
from the Knight.
Right here is where he jumped
out in the PATH the Knight told
Raggedy Andy. Then the Knight told
Raggedy Andy which way the funny
little man had gone with Raggedy
Andy's magical wooden sword.
Raggedy Andy and the Knight
walked on in that direction until they
came to a great big oak tree and
peeping out of a window in the tree,
the knight saw the funny little man.

CHAPTER xxxvIII

| He had not meant to tell her so
abruptly of his love. Yet he was glad
when he had spoken the words that
had been repeating themselves in his
heart for days.
He felt her start as he uttered
| them. The hands holding the steering
wheel held it more tightly. The deep
color in her face faded. as If she
were under some strong emotion.
you will forgive me for telling
you SO soon, won't YOU, dear?" the
man begged.
| He wanted to ask her to stop the
| car, to let him take her in his arms.
4 But he would not while she looked
| like that-while he did not know
| what she was feeling.
| A rumble of thunder sounded
| overhead. The woods were growing
| dark. The road was very steep. Ruth
was guiding the car carefully and
| did not speak until they had reached
! the level ground at the edge of the
woodland. Then a great drop of
water splashed on the glass wind
shield.
ut is raining!' she exclaimed.
What IL it is?, he retorted. What
difference does that make? Ruth
tell ms-are you angry?"
She looked at him for only an in
slant and as she did so. he saw In
her eyes an expression that made his
heart bound with joy.
RUTH he calculated. "Ruth-do
You mean"-
He got no farther, for there was
a crash of thunder and a flash of
vivid lightning.
Ruth Is Very Anxious
I'VE are going to have an awful
STORM" she exclaimed. II do not
mind the rain-except that 1t may be
bad for you. but the wind Is another
matter
She was driving fast along the
road slSirting the edge of the wood.
81 am afraid we cannot reach a house
before the storm strikes u.s." she
said, her breath coming fast.
The sky was copper-colored. The
wind seemed to have stepped en-
tirely. 1t was as IL, 1t were gathering
forces with which to return in a
rush. There was something ominous
in the very calm itself

Kenneth said reassuringly Even if
there is big blow
But even as he spoke there was
sound of rushing in the woods, a
cloud of dust was caught up into
whirling mass and flung into their
faces. Then. with a mighty roar,
the storm was upon them.
Ruth bent over the steering
wheel, while the wind tore her hat
loose. blew IT. off. then caught her
hair and whipped 1t into a steaming
! mass. She did not utter a sound,
but with mighty effort, swerved the
car to one side and drew it close
against the overhanging bank at the
edge OF the road. The bank formed
partial shelter above them.
This is the best we can dol" she
gasped as the slanting rain struck
them. This cliff will protect us on
one side. anyway"
Then. as the roar increased, she
crouched low in the seat. An instant
later the air was filled with flying
leaves and bits of branches. The
rain, while 1t laid the dust, peited
and stung their faces and hands.

Mr.. Van Hoose stated that it was

and induce merchants of any COM

seeking foreign stock.

he begged. 1T is wet-but you are
soaked anyway, and it may keep out
some of the cold"
She spoke almost sharply. Don't
be absurd! l am not cold-and /
will not touch your coat. Why-it
might give you your death to
ride without it in the condition you
are in. You are far from strong-and
you know it,"
Difficult To Explain
He did not reply directly. Her
nerves were on edge. 1t was evident
that she was genuinely disturbed at
the thought of the long drive between
them and home. When she next spoke
he understood her perturbation.
Father will be anxious about us
and you will not be there when
your mother arrives. She will think
it very strange"
I'VE can telephone your father in
the first village we get to-" he remin-
ded her. And he can explain the de-
lay to my mother"
Even as he spoke he knew that the
delay could not be explained to his
mothers satisfaction. She was com
ing all the way from Maine because
her son was ill-and on her arrival
she would find that son had been
out driving in the worst storm of the
year. Perhaps, after all it did look
odd.
Ruths face was strained and her
lips were set in firm line. She was
probably thinking just what he was
thinking. Only she did not know
his mother as he knew her. Yet the
girl was already dreading Mrs.
Lang's criticism. II she dreaded it
now. how much more would she
shrink fl ON 1t after she knew the
woman of the world!
1t was not a pleasant reflection.
But he must try to set his compan-
ions anxieties at rest.
Listen, my dear" he urged. Had
my mother been here today she coul /
hardly have raised an objection to
my taking drive along a perfectly
safe and smooth road-when that
drive had been prescribed by the ply
stefan having me in charge"
He paused. Il suppose not" Ruth
admitted.
We'll, then, he continued, such
being the case, you do not suppose
any one could hold you accountable
for the storm. nor for the falling
of a tree that made our early return
impossible, do your"
Ruth smiled at his logic. why no.
she replied. And II you have not
caught cold or will not be worse for
the shaking up over the rough road
ahead of us, there is, l suppose
nothing to worry about. But you see,
before you explained all this to me,
could not help being nervous about
what your mother might feel. OF
course, you are right--for you know
her and / do not
Yes, thought the man sardonically
he did know her, and certainly
Ruth did not-yet.
