CHAPTER XIV.
Cynthia Makes a Move

u EFORE dinner that evening,
ID Cynthia had gone to Mrs. Ora
ham with a request. Cynthia
was sensation seeker. She wanted
nothing more from life than to be
amused, and just at this time she
telt that it would amuse her TO flirt
casually with Tex Hunter.
Cynthia was different from Iyra.
She liked playing with emotion. Her
own feelings lay very near the sur,
face. They were easily aroused, and
as easily put to sleep. She could be
held in a mans arms and be kissed
one moment, and with perfect ease
forget all about it the next. She
was like an expensive cat that purs
when it is strolled, hut is entirely
incapable of giving any honest de
'Votion to its owner.
''Oh. Mrs. Graham, she said IN
| her drawing voice, would you think
me very dreadful if | asked you to
put me next to Mr.. Hunter at din
ner tonight. [ think he is delight
full, don't YOU? Such a diamond in
the rough
Mrs. Graham smiled at Cynthia.
1nWardly she was glad that Cynthia
was exhibiting some interest in this
strange friend of her husbands. She
haC suffered some qualms about
him. His lack of social polish had
annoyed her. Mrs. Graham was es-
sentially cold and worldly. 1t was
from her mother that Lyra had in
herited her GOODNESS and restraint.

he had been conscious of only one
thing. lie loved this girl, he wanted
her. For the first time in his life
he was entirely swept away from his
moorinSs, he could not bring any
treason to bear on this thing that had
happened so suddenly. All he knew
was that the thought of her had SCI
him on fire and that the idea Of Ter
marrying another man was sudden
ly intolerable.
He had seen her slip her hand
into peters and smile up into his
eyes. He had heard her laugh that
high sweet laugh Of hers. That
episode in the living room before
dinner had meant nothing TO her,
had not stirred her To anything 6lE

had meant everything. He was

The privet is one of the best
hedge plants adapted for growth in
Georgia. / may be set out in the
fall or the spring. 1t is not difficult
to plant or to propa gate. 1t is gen
orally best to set the young plants
relatively close together so as to
make a thick, dense hedge. AS the
plants grow, they should be kept
trimmed down so as to cause them
to branch very freely. This makes
a thick, dense hedge. If the plants
are properly trimmed, the hedge will
appear to make direct contact with
the ground. 1t is generally best to
trim privet hedges down to eighteen
inches to thirty-siX inches high, y
pending on the taste Of the owner

growing conditions are very favor
able, the hedge may have to De
trimmed every two weeks. 1t takes
some practice to handle the shears
properly so as to trim the hedge uni
formly. A rounded top and sides is
the end you should strive to attain.

set them out during January, Feb

sufficiently dry to permit handling
them satisfactorily.
The use of fertilizing materials is
an essential matter in growing privet
hedges. A formula containing pei
cent nitrogen, 9 per cent phospho riC
acid, and 3 per cent potash may be
used with advantage.

The Reaction

IN SWIFT feet Lyra had fled to

had locked her door, and the
minute she was alone she burst
suddenly into storm of tears.
This fact in itself was strange. for
Lyra never wept. She deSpised
