CHAPTER w, Continued
Now GO ON WITH THE STORY


When he opened the door OF his
studio he saw that his reading light
was turned on. A cup and saucer
stood beside a smoky coffee pot on
the teakwood table.
He looked around and saw no one.
1t occurred to him that one of his
friends who knew where he kept his
doorkey had been, entertained him
) self with coffee and gone out, leav-
ing the light burning.
Nathaniel had eaten practically
nothing at dinner, unable to enjoy
food, while Virginia left hers I'M
touched.
The sight of the coffee pot stirred
an appetite for a cup Of the stimu-
lating beverage. He carried the pot
to the cubbyhole that the real es-
tate agent called a kitchen, put
fresh water to boil and went into
his bedroom for his Longing robe.
He snapped on the light, dug his
robe from the closet and turned
around to remove his coat. Then he
saw, for the first time, that his Wis
itor had not departed.
st might have known it was you"
he scolded, shaking the sleeping girl
by the shoulder. She put up a feeble
hand, brushed futilely at his fingers,
turned her head on the pillow and
relaxed into slumber
Nathaniel noticed that the bed
was made, the extra blanket folded
neatly at the foot. He glanced back
at Chiri.
There was a smudge on her I'M
rouged cheek-now and then she
eschewed makeup completely just to
show her friends that she was hu-
man, she said-and on the arm that
she had thrown up over her dark,
hit and miss bob.
Nathaniel felt moment of soft
ness for her. Poor little donkey"
he murmured.
He stood and looked at her sleep
ing for a while, then turned,
reached for the blanket and threw
it over her feet. The studio was
bit chilly, as the weather had turned
unexpectedly cold for late spring.
A little later, over his coffee, he
unused on the ways of women, par
ticularly women of Chris sort. An
inspection Of the place had ac-
uuainted him with the reason for
her deep sleep. Apparently she was
dead tired.
The studio had been scrubbed
from END n or@ r'lt in way that
the dust that gathers SO quickly in
would not olSCuro MS WORK, Only
the Village had been removed.
Scattered papers were still scat
tered.
He felt warmly grateful and more
than a little annoyed. Surely Chiri
nothing by Shaving for him. Yet,
must know that she could gain
on the other hand, he appreciated
what she had done.
Hired cleaning women made so
much bother. Still he could not let
her spend the night there simply

way of thinking. If she would not
marry him now there was no use
in making her more miserable than
she already was, he told himself.
Virginia greeted him most fiatter-
ingly. She looked very tired and
fragile in a black chiffon hostess
gown, and when Nathaniel came to
her she went into his arms and re-
Taxed in his embrace with a soft
sigh. 1t made Nathaniel feel very
manly.
He bent his head and buried his
lips in the verbena-scented lure that
was her hair. Then he rubbed his
cheek against it very gently.
81 was a brute to you yesterday
he confessed, "but I'm different to-
day. I won't make you unhappy
again, sweetheart"
Virginia lifted her head to look at
him.
Last night, thinking about you
and how you felt about my going to
Mr.. Deans, I wondered if you
would believe that I don't care
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1928-05-12

After all, he had nothing but a
groundless objection to her plan and
his own disappointment to back him
up in opposing her. And he wanted
to make her happy.
"At least you will promise to mar
ry me soon, Virginia? You ought
to go fifty-f1fty with me on giving
in, you know"
II know I should, Mel. You're
being very good. Just let me get
over this terrible blow and then per-
haps I won't be so fearful of the
future. I'll try to see things as
you do
They sealed their agreement with
the seal Of the ages between men
and women and then Nathaniel
asked to be put to work.
There were a few books and pic
lures that Virginia felt entitled to
take away with her, and these she
and Nathaniel packed into a couple
of Suitcases. They had to go over

the place carefully to make sure
that nothing she ought to take, such
as papers and personal belongings
was left behind.
Nathaniel glanced frequently at
Virginia, watching solicitously for
signs of breakdown. 1t was a sad
task, this saying good-by to a home
and happy past.
Nathaniel's own eyes smarted
more than once as he saw Virginia
surreptitiously press a beloved OBJ
ject to her heart and then replace
it with reluctant hands.
For what he felt would be the
only time in his life he welcomed
the presence of ClarisSa when she
appeared with a demurring young
man in her wake.
The call would serve to take Vir-
ginia's mind off the past, he hoped,
but a moment later he had cause
enough to regret his credence.

ASK" she said.

thaniel confessed, but the way he
said it revealed to Virginia that he
no longer doubted her.

want to give in to you with all my

Nathaniel compressed his lips
over an impulse to argue with her

She was gone. He made sure of
it and then set about to prepare his
own breakfast, but he discovered
that she had left everything ready
for him on the table. A napkin was
spread over the toast and eggs to
keep them warm.
Thoughtful kid.
The grapefruit looked tempting,
so nicely cut and juicy. Nathaniel
attacked it with eagerness and a
bent spoon. Whew! What the
devil? He sputtered, picking up his
coffee cup and dashing wildly to the
sink. Salt! And lots of it,
He pushed the grapefruit aside
and started in to breakfast on toast
and eggs, but when he lifted the
napkin he found only a couple of
slices of bread that had been
burned black and an egg that looked
as if it had started to fry itself on
a redhot coal and then changed its
mind.
That's what I call a fiendish

nothing left now but the coffee, and
he had little faith in it. He was
entirely justified in his belief as he
learned when he charity took sip
of the most vile-tasting stuff he'd
ever beheld in a cup. His nearest
guess was that Chiri had boiled cof-
fee and tea together.
well, she got eyen," he granted,
"if she had grievance.
He got a cup of coffee at coffee
shop where he knew there wouldn't
be any of his friends to engage him
in conversation and delay his get
ting to Virginia's apartment.
= When he arrived there he was
prepared to endeavor to make her
believe he had come round to her

because he was grateful to her. But
she had looked SO darned tired. 1t
wouldn't be necessary to turn her
out until he was ready to retire.
There was pile of new novels on
the table. Nathaniel turned his at
tention to them. He came to one
that promised to absorb his interest
and began to read. He read only
occasionally, but when he did he
liked to finish whatever it happened
to be-novel or article.
He read on and on, forgetting
both Chiri and time. But he did
not reach the end before his lids
had dropped many times, finally to
settle down firmly in overpowering
sleep. The book slid unnoticed to
the floor.
He was awakened by the ringing
of his telephone. He was half
aware that it had been ringing for
some time.
The instrument was on a small
stand near his bedroom door and
before he could stir himself to an
swer it Chiri appeared, took the re-
ceiver off the hook and greeted the
caller with a lazy hello
At first Nathaniel did not grasp
the significance of what she was do
ing. Those who live in the Village
are not given toward consideration
Of appearances.
But his first thought naturally
was of Virginia, and then he real
lied in a flash that she would
scarcely understand being an

she was calling him in the middle
of the night.
He sprang up hastily. Who is
it?" he called.
II think it is Miss Brewster"
Cliri told him.

DORAN LAUDS ENFORCEMENT (
OF PROHIBITION IN Indiana.
SPEAKER SLAMS AL SMITH
U. S. Dry Chief CommendS
Ward and WinkIer for
Good Work.
FAITH IN CIVIL SERVICE
State Is Outstanding for
Efforts to End Liquor
Traffic, Meeting Told.

High praise for prohibition en-
forcement In Indiana, both Federal
and State, wa svoiced at the Indiana
dry convention at Roberts Park M.
E. Church this afternoon by DR.. j
M. Doran, United States prohibition
commissioner.
Special tribute was paid United
States District Attorney Albert
Ward and Federal Dry Chief George
Winkler for their efforts in appre-
bending and prosecuting liquor law
violators.
"In the district Of Indiana some
outstanding cases have been inves-
tigated and prosecuted during the
past year." Doran declared. Some
very important cases are now pend
ing.
District Attorney Ward of this
city has not only conducted his
Office with great ability, as shown
by the results he has secured in
court, but continually has acted as
the legal adviser for Deputy Admin
istrator Winkler and Mr.. Yellowley
in the investigation of these cases,
and can only state that I wish all
of our districts were like Indiana III
that respect.
Faith in Civil Service
1--WE have a problem that contin-
ually is changing, but I am conf
dent that no combination or group
of commercial liquor violators ever
Is going to dominate the forces of
the United States Government. In
diana is a State where we have we'll
illustrated the workout of the con-
current power clause of the eight
zenith amendment to the Constitu-
ton. Your State officers and courts
perform their duty admirably, leav-
ing to the Federal forces the task
of combating large interstate viola
tons. This is an ideal arrangement
and I believe is the proper division
of function."z z q z z z
Faith in the civil service idea for

II believe, In the end, it will pro-
duce service Of higher grade and

while this transition is going on, to
exert my utcomst efforts to main
tain and effevtive field service, in
order that there may be no let-down

The belief that enforcement is a
success was also expressed.
II believe that the scientific
method Of trial and error has been
applied to the legal control of bev-
erage alcohol and that in the labora-
tory of political action result has
been obtained that stands every
test, ''Doran asserted.
He praised the Anti-Saloon
League plans for an educational
campaign and cited authorities on
the declaration that alcohol is a de-
pressant and not stimulant.

hill STORY TO
Be TOLD JURY
Seattle Detective to Take
Stand in Death Trial.
BIZ I Hifcd Prcsq

By IHitcd PrCsq
OTTAWA, Ill, Jan. 26.-Harry
Hills initial statement. after his
arrest for the murder Of his mother,
today was to be told to a jury trying
him for the crime.
Hill, the prosecution contends,
killed his mother and then buried
her body in the basement of her
home in Streator, III.
Today's principal testimony was
to come from Captain of Detectives
William Kent of Seattle, where Hill
was arrested after a nationwide
search.
Kent will tell the jury Hill told
him he last saw his mother, Mrs.
Eliza A. Hill, on Aug. 6. Her body
was found few days later.
From Kent the first evidence
tending to show a motive for the
murder was to come. The prosecu-
ton contends Hill committed the
crime to cover several forged checks
drawn against his mothers account.
Kent was to tell the jury that
Harry told him, Il ran away from
Streator, because of certain diff
culties about checks
