Leonard heard a vast voice crying,

pinnacle of rock beside the trail stood
Basil Quaero, his arms outstretched

corduroy trousers and laced boots, but
round his shoulders was what was left
of the ragged cassock in which Leon

He was laundering: MY children,

Light from the full moon filtered
through the trees, and an owl set UP

An hour later the major and Mrs.
Paine reappeared in a fiivver. Jack
and Isabel were not in sight. The
motor horns were sounded repeatedly,
but Albert alone responded. His
quest had been in vain.
A fruitless search had been made
for Jack and Isabel-though there
had been no publicity--when three
days later they were driven up to the
son. Mrs. Paine received them with
restrained excitement. Paine was on
the golf links.

books and authors. she beats him at
tennis, they do not agree upon the

actually discordant as to music. No

Jack young-could be more uncon-

Paine turned on his heel with a
cynical smile. and Mrs. Paine's nose
was in the air as she walked away.
She came upon Jack and Isabel who
had been exploring a fores. upon the

quarreling politely. for his face was

walked in silence. Paine caught
