to lose such a blatherskite
as that Forsythe! Every
body in town says he lives

and borrows from the
LAWYERS besides!"
But Ann Marie was
neither glad nor sorry, She
simply felt numb.
Her face wore the dazed
look of a person who has
had a piece of news that he
only half understands.
II was engaged to him
I'm glad nobody knows it,"
she said finally. 81 would
hate everyone to know that

forchand she knew what
that message would be. She
knew that Alice had run
away with Neal
Little things that Alice
had said about him from
time to time came back to
her as she went slowly down
the stairs once more!
HE certainly is the best
LOOKING thing that ever

"He surely does dance
wonderfully, doesn't he, Ann
Marie?' Il wonder if
you and Neal are suited to
each other, Ann Marie -
That was the sort of
things she had said about
him lately.
Why, she had been crazy
about him all along!
"She probably would have
Landed him before now
only she was engaged to
Johnny Lawler and his

and she laid the envelope
down upon the dining-room
table in front of her father.
She read the note with
her chin on his shoulder,
while Mrs. Leezy looked
over his other shoulder and
read it, too:
Dear Dad-Mrs. Leezy

" Someone walked all over

day at the wedding he
said, in his mildly complain

Something worse than
that has happened to you!'
Ann Marie answered him
grimly. "Leota Ingram has
come to see you, and she
certainly is on the war-path
about something. She's out

Mr.. Macy set down his
watering can and wiped his

peated. "Isn't that the girl

Ann Marie nodded. Eyes

thrashing once for taking

She was trying to pre-
pare her father for the story
that she knew Leota was
going to tell him. Trying to
soften the blow before it fell.
IIeota was sitting in the
hammock couch, swinging
herself back and forth and
smoking cigarette

he came up the steps Of the
porch. II guess you know

She crossed one silken
knee over the other and
made herself more comfor-
able in the swing.

your family has done to me

"My familyY" Mr.. Macy
echoed, staring at her in
mild establishment from over
his glasses. He sat down in
his favorite porch-rocker
and laid his hands over the
shiny knees Of his trousers.

word at him. Plenty! Take

II was Nanette who threw
possible light on the mys-
terry. Excited black eyes
sparkling up into Marianne's
troubled face, Nanette spoke.
"The door-the open door,
Marianne, when you were on
the porch talking to the man
with the teeth of gold. Per-
haps Anatole walked out!
Perhaps he went out to

She turned the doorknob
and stepped into the room.
Alice was not in il!
Moreover, she had not
slept in it last night! The
candlewick bedspread was
smooth and white and the
pillows had not been touched.
They were like smooth little
drifts of snow against the
back of the bed.
But the rest of the room
was in wild disorder.
The top drawer of the
dresser was on the floor,
and there was nothing in it
but pair of soiled stock
ings. Perfume and powder
and brushes were all gone
from the dresser, itself.
Three or four dresses lay in
a heap on the floor of the
closet where they had fallen.
Even the wers of
Alice's writing desk had
been pulled out and showed
only part of the way in
again. And on the top
of the desk lay a white
envelope. Across it Alice
had written "FOR DAD"
in her fine dashing hand
writing.
Ann Marie picked it up.
1t was not sealed.
"For Dad" she said
aloud, reading the words
that were written on the
envelope.
But she knew that the
message in it would be for
her. Just as if some
one had told her about it be-

And on Monday night Lee

The children were starry
eyed with excitement.
They are Americans, are
they not, Marianne? What

face. Il am grown up. I

The door was closed. From
behind it came the rumble
Of mems voices. A laugh.
A sudden piteous squeal for
help which electrified the
girl.
She flew across the muddy
yard and pounded franti-
cally on the door.
"Ict me in! You Amcri-
cans let me in!

guilty silence. A man s voice

Smiles, Tears and Thrills
Abound in Serial

The door suddenly opened.
A soldier, overly polite,
looked, down at her with ex-
aggerated surprise.
ooh, is it you, Ma amt
We was singin' an didn't
hear you at first. Sure,
come right on in"
Everything was obviously
guiltless to the girls indig-
nant eyes.
A lantern, slung from the
rafters, lit the white-washed
interior of the barn. Men
were stretched on their blan-
kets on the hay. Some had
removed their boots and
were solicitously examining
their feet.
Through the yellow light
their eyes turned on the girl
in wide innocence. At an
other time, those concen-
trated stares would have
abashed the girl, but Mari
anne was thoroughly angry
now.
She painted, II have heard
the voice of my leetle peeg!
You have i'm in here, yes?'
she inquired of the soldier
who had let her in, short
fellow with a dark Semetic
face.
He answered in mock hor-
ror, "You esk NE for a
pig! Oh, Lady .
A sudden roar Of laugh
ter as comrade whacked
him. Gosh, that 's'a good
ono on you, Yom kippur! -
A little tow-headed man
spoke up in deep concern.
"What color was your pig,
Ma 'am?'
The girl turned a wither-
ing look upon him. " E as
nose - same color YOUR
nose!"
Haw !! Haw !! Haw !
Soapy, guess that's horse
on you!'
All this time the girls
eyes had been eagerly try
ing to penetrate the shadows

light. Eyes . Q eyes

clenched holly. Then relief
flooded her face. Up there

this spirited discussion was
not at hand.
"Why -" where is Ana
tole?' She looked around,
alarm dawning in the blue
eyes. "Jacques! Francois!"
-scv erely remembering
other such attempts-"you
have struggled AnatoIe up
stairs again into your nice,
clean bed"
But jacques and Francois
vehement'y denied the ac-
cusation. They had not
touched Anatole. They had
not played with Anatole that
afternoon. Nanet1e and baby
Sylvestre alone had held
communication with the pet
Mig.

"Ah! ces diablcs d 'Ameri-
cans!" The girl whispered
it beneath her breath and
alarm leaped into her eyes.
She clapped her h and s
smartly. "Quick! Up the
stairs with you! Not an
other word! Alfonso
While they scampcrcd up
the stairs, the girl wrcnchcd
open the front door and ran
down the steps to the court
yard.
A glance at Anatole s pen
told her the worst. Mari

A month is not a lifetime,
certainly, but it can seem
unnaturally long to bored
young man in muddy
French village.
1t had not taken young
Lieutenant Frayne long to
discover the pretty girl in
the old white farm house.
More than once he had come
out here to sit before the
kitchen fire idly, slapping
at his shining high boots
with his cane while Marianne
demurely mended the clothes
of her "'bebes.
But these tired dough
boys. milling around in the
courtyard now-they were
very, very different from
Lieutenant Frayne.
The sergeant stared wearl-
II up at the girl as she ap-
peared on the porch before
him.
"Good evening, Monsieur
le Sergeant" Marianne
spoke with displeased dig
nifty. Four years of English
and American allies, to say
nothing Of Lieutenant Frayne,
had given her quaint
mastery of the English
language. "For why you
come to my farm so? The
war. she is over"
The sergeant's smile dis
played several very gold
teeth.
"She is, Lady, but we got
to stay here until we shove
off for the United States. .
Marianne turned and
looked at the soldiers who
were making free with her
barn. Several had already
dropped their packs YEARLY
and were sprawled out on
the hay. This much she
could see through the yawn-
ing door.
She looked AT the choco-
late puddles OF the court
ward. at the mud, churncd
to slime by tramplng feet
and horses hoofs and she
made a little helpless ges-
ture.
"Then, ! 'ope you shove

Frantically clawing at the
hay ." when to her hor-
ror it heaved upright, 81
soldier sat up and grinned
at her. A tall young fell
low, jauntily handsome,
with two dancing devils in
his grey eyes.
AS she met that disarming
crooked grin the girl shrank'
back in confusion.
ooh ." Monsieur -
Your pardon! I mistake !.
yon for my lcctlc pecg!"
The man did not heed the
roar which this brought
forth. He continued 10 sit,
coat hunched up, eyes boldly
drinking in the girl before
him.
Very pretty was Mari
anne in her confusion, the
lantern shining on her
flushed cheeks, turning her =
hair to purest gold.
He drawled in a voice
which was somehow carcss-
ing.
"No ma am, I'm sorry,
but | amt your pig. | can
prove an alibi. I'm a firstA,
class private-my names
Stag"
What more he might have
added is unknown, for there
was a relieved and trium-
plant grunt and a small pig
wriggled from beneath his
huncbcd up coat.
With a cry of joy Mari
anne swooped down upon it
and lifted the pig in her"
arms. Then, regarding the
man Stag over Anatole's
ears, with flashing eyes, she =.
spoke.
"You are first class liar!"
She stamped small foot in
helpless fury.
Same thing, ma am"
Stag spoke with mock meek
ness. He had risen and was
looking down on her with a
bold admiration which missed
nothing of the fiery slender
ness Of her body, the flash->
ing violet eyes.
"You have no hearts, vou

A sudden aghast chill 1
spreading over the barn
warned them. Marianne
turned, still protcctivc1y

Lieutenant Frayne coming
into the barn with his firm
step.
His eyes swept coldlr

Stubborn Cough
Quickly Ended by
Famous Recipe

Here is the famous old recipe which
millions of housewives have found to be
the most dependable means of break
ing up stubborn, lingering cough. 1t
takes but a moment to prepare and
costs little, but it gives real relief even
for those dreaded coughs that usually
follow the "fu."
From any druggist, get 2K ounces of
Pinex, pour it into pint bottle and fill
the bottle with plain granulated sugar
syrup or strained honey. Thus you
make full pint of better remedy than
you could buy ready-made for three
times the cost. 1t never spoils and
tastes so good that even children like it.
Not only does this simple mixture
soothe and heal the infianed throat
membranes with surprising ease, but
also it is absorbed into the blood, and
acts directly upon the bronchial tubes,
thus aiding the whole system in throw
ing off the cough. 1t loosens the germ
laden phlegm and eases chest soreness
in way that is really astonishing.
Pinex is q highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway Pine, con-
tanning the active agent of creosote, in
a refined, palatable form. Nothing
known in medicine is more helpful in
cases of distressing coughs, chest colds,
and bronchial troubles.
Do not accept a substitute for Pinex.
It is guaranteed to give prompt relief
Or money refunded.

Robin Sets Roll Record

Captain H. Weir Cook, general
