 Exactly" returned. "and I want both attacks to be hard ones. with convalescence bit drawn out. Then we shall be sure of immunity. And the whole thing rests upon your shoulders. You must see that Olina tires of an adorins but typicalIy American sweetheart. while at the same time making Mary believe that you are infected with the same longing for court life which is af- feciing her. Can you do this? ?" He squared his shoulders. and looked at me steadily. T can do anything" he said simply. If l can win Mary"
 Tt will be difficult for you" I,said. "I am afraid, Mary herself will make it hard. She wants to see you tomorrow morning. and I have promised her 70 ask you to come over to the house." ITO sec mel" he repeated, and ! saw his fingers clench the ~dge of l the table.

She does not know that we are dining together tonight but I am going to tell her when l get home that you asked me to dine with you that you might tell me of your engagement. l shall be mendacious enough to let her inn agine that you are quite happy. and I want you to tell me now that you do not think it wise to see her.

 This is less than nothing" I said emphatically. and am sure in few weeks you and I will be enjoying a little dinner of celebra- ton over the fortunate outcome o: this international romance as Mr Uderwood calls it."
 He smiled with an effort.
 'I hope so. I am sure," he said. Out while the prince and princess may so back home cured. there is one person who cannot be changed. Have you forgotten my father?" (Continued Tomorrow) Copyright. 1929. Newspaper Feature Service. Inc.

It would be fun to find his bedroom and see him asleep. l don't believe any one has seen Miner asleep. But I've never seel him ill the winter. SO it must be that he does sleep all winter I wouldn't want to meet him down here. but there isn't the least bit of danger that Will.'
 So Danny went on. He went on quite a long distance, for the tun- els of Miner the Mole usually are long tunnels. Danny kept on. deter mined to find she end of that tun- rcl. By and by he came to q place where Miner had raised little lnound. Miner had pushed the earth out. Danny tried digging. The earth wasn't frozen. In few moments his head popped out into the snow. Danny climbed cut and dug place around that hole. This might be very handy by and by. There's nothing like having q handy retreat in time of danger.' said Danny.

 Graus&arkiaa Dreams Of the
 Royal Slasqueradcrs
 Noel Veritzen was 90 beWilderet and % thoroughly miserable that felt the need of something to re- l,eve the soberness Of our conver' sation. So l laughed lightly at hi' stammered objection to my sugges' ton that he play devoted swain ti Princess Olina for the present.
 "Your fathers son should be able f, act a role without any 1ifficui ty," told him. 'I have not changed my mind about your marrying the princess. You are not going to take so absurd step. But if you follow my advice you are so- ing to pretend to be her devoted ad' mirer as long as Mary IS engaged to Prince Georges. You will also be as temperamental and American and masterful as you can felgn 10 be. Will you let me tell you my req son for asking this of you?'
 "Yes, yes," he said eagerly with a face suddenly brightened. T think l begin to see.'
 I've older people in the secret, ' I began, "have seen for some time that these two royal young people are living in sort of Graustark- Prisoner-of- Zenda dream which cannot possibly last, but which is very real to them just now. You see, before the royal family of Transvania visited here. Prince Georges and Princess Olina, while not sweethearts. were very good friends indeed. and both were bitter ly resentful at her mothers plan to marry her to Georges uncle. the cd and ugly king of Trees.
 Graustarktan Romance
 "Then whel Olina disappeared upon the very day set for tL> re- turn of the royal family So Trans Sania-its a long and romantic story which she no doubt has told you-Prince Georges was sent se- cretly by Olina's mother 10 hunt for her. But when he found her. he also saw Mary, and partly from loyalty to Olina, partly because he also wished to stay over here. he report cd that he could not find the prin- cess, and has himself managed to ret away from the ken of his own court. But 1t can only be a matter ee time before they are discovered, and would like to hasten matters 70 that they would so back volun- tarily before there is any publicity concerning them"
 Noel shivered at the word, and I think he visioned Mary the center of the pitiiess glare which any per son possessing news value has to face in this hectic time.
 ''Then you think these-betroth- als-will-hasten matters" he said.
 T most certainly do," repried. If they had gone back to Trans vania and Trees without getting themselves into these romantic en-

The Committee on Drug Addic- tion established in New York city has been carrying out studies in various institutions with view to finding ways and means for freeing such people of the demand for in. drug.
 The idtliet's Behavior One of the first studies involved consideration Of the conduct of the addict and this revealed inter- csting information as to the means that had been used to secure the drug while the patient was under observation in the hospital. Drugs were found concealed in the soiIcd dressings covering wounds. Tn clothing. letters and jcwel'y, and in all Of the crifices of ! the body. Lctters which were re- /, ctived by addicts were found 10 be written on paper previously satur- atcd with q solution Of the drug and then dried and ironcd out before be- ing written on. The addict extract cd the drug by chewing the paper. 1 Drugs were found concealed | under the stamps on envelopes. ln the hoilowed out stem of watch 1 and in similar places of conceal nent.
 The symptoms following with dranal Of d drug from an addict are usually quite severe. They in- clude abdominal pain. twitcbing. i difficulty in breathing and in sleep
 ing, and great mental depression. The height of the withdrafwai symp- i toms IS reached between 4S and = 1 hours following the last dose of tn. i drug taken.
 Rehabilitation Ono Of the results of the eStcn. slNe studies made in Philadelphja i vas the revelation of the fact tha, | drug addiction does not produce i, most instances permanent physical and mental changes and that it is possible 10 rehabilitate the addict ! successfully if he can once be re- lieved of his craving. ] This fact has given the greatest i encouragement 10 the physicians and has stimulated their efforts |, the search for some specific method i of treatment.

Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse are little people who very soon make themselves at home anywhere They are particular. but not fussS. So, moving to a strange place does not upset them at all. In a very short time they are quite at home. It was 50 when they moved over to the Old Orchard. It was just their good fortune that almost at once they found a hole under the roots of an apple tree. It was just the place for a Meadow Mouse home.
 It didn't take them great while to gather enough grass to make q fairly good nest. They had to gath CT 1t under the snow. but it was there and they got it. Then Danny was ready to so exploring. First, he worked around the foot of that tree. Presently he discovered another hole between the roots. Down he popped. This hole went down deep CT than the one where they had built their nest. Danny soon found that the frost had not frozen thl ground much, if any That was be- cause there had been heavy fall of snow before bitter cold weather and the snow had acted as blan- Eet. He could dig in that earth down there. There was place where the earth was particularly soft. 1t was as If some one had been there be- fore him.
 'I think I'll dig in here little way" said Danny 10 himself. "i might find something"
 So Danny dug and almost at ono. he broke through into a tunnel Then he stopped. He listened. He used that funny little nose of his He heard nothing and he smellel nothing.
 'It's one of the tunnels of Miner the Mole,' said Danny 10 himself but it's an old tunnel. He hasn { rn using it for q long time. No cir. Miner hasn't used this tunno for long time, cant smell hin n nll I'll explore q little.'
 So Danny started along Miner tunnel. Miner being bigger thar Fanny. that tunnel. of course gave him plenty of room. In fact. j., could twist around and run back | he had 10. He would go foot ol two and then stop 10 listen. II. could hear nothing. It was just q! still as still coul1 be in there un derground. Then Danny would gt ahead again. IL was fun. You see Danny doesn't mind the dark a, some little boys and girls do. H, didn't in the least mind being in . strange place in the dark. Ther, was a sense of adventure that h; liked. By and by he came 10 wher, a tunnel hranchod off He stoppnt there and listened Still lie hear nothing

II will he a bad day for the race when the pola.
regions have been completely explored. There is a
tonic TO the daily stories Of adventure in the land OF
everlasting snow that We will miss when the Arctic
and Antarctic have finally been mapped and c~ataloeued
to the last square mile.
Sir Hubert wilkins, flying over wastes 81 ice AMI
snow al the bottom Of the world. is doing his bit to
hasten that day. He discovers that Graham Land is
separated from the Antarctic continent BY a long arm
Of the sea, and notes half a dCzen ncw islands which
must 70 on ali.future maps. Incidentally, he and Lieut..
Carl Eiclsou risk their lives repeatedly to make these
discoveries.
Now all Of this makes very interesting reading, even
though We who read it never heard Of Graham Land
before, have only the haziest idea where il is and can't
for the life Of u see what difference il makes whether
il is part Of the Antarctic continent OF not. i il one
u those places that We take on faith; W. shall neye-
70 there, and NC shall never talk with anyone who is
going there.
But. for All thet, the stories Or Sir Huberts dis
coverics make interesting reading. Despite the fact
that he Is covering the region in p modern sirplane,
Ms story IA only 4 rev chapter in the Old old story
that was begun countless centuries ago by the first
Phocnician captain who dared to poke his rickety craft
out beyond Gibraltar, and continued, through the ages,
by Columbus, Magellan, Frobishcr, Cook and Perry.
This story ~ more than a summary Of brave deeds
and dreadful hardships. II is one of our most priceless
possessions; a long epic OF the human races mex
haustibIe thirst for knowledge, an eternal testimonial
to its capacity for going 70 dark places and Drawing
death in desolate seas.
The race il restless. II l. never satisfied with ia
has or what it knows. Always it must put itself to
fearful bother ana take long risks to add new facts
to its collection. That these facts sometimes turn out
10 have no practical value makes no difference. The
fact that mcn will peril their lives to get them gives
them an extra Significance.
To ~ dauntless and To 81 overlastiuG1y iuquisitivs
these are two traits I'm us that Will not dc out. So
