WHY. LADY PEEL!
Several columnistic complaints have
appeared in print lately to the effect
that Beatrice Lille, the comic, snub-
bed-or seemed to-some of the local
talent. Which is amusing, since the

gates. Then something moved out
side and suddenly his heart jumped
to hear Adela's voice.
"Tedl" came the whisper.
The next moment her hands were
on his and, reaching through the
bars, her hands touched his face,
while for time he heard only low,
choked sobbing.

Between the bars he felt her wet
lips upon his own, and she had gone.
The warm air of the desert beat in
on the girls face as, faster and faster,
she sped over the narrow road. To
the left rose the granite cross of the
Conquerors, keeping its endless vigil
beneath the stars. She flashed on the
headlights. A ranchhouse doomed up
and was quickly left behind. A lone
ly coyote skulked across the road,
turning to watch the lights of her
passing. and as she drove. her
thoughts went racing on ahead, des-
perate, formless thoughts born of
her bitter need. Her only hope, her
only chance lay in the majors aid.
If he refused, if he delayed-Adela
thrust back the certainty of what
must happen to Ted out there among
horde of maddened vaqueros.
A glow in the sky ahead told her
Verdi was nearing, and with it came
a recollection that the major would
be at Don Bob's on this last night
OF his freedom. At the crossroads
she turned toward the ranch.
Once she looked up at the stars.
Dear Cod" she whispered, "he
must come, and Uncle Pace must
listen"
Turning through the gate at Bob's
hacienda Adela swung past a band
of horsemen clustered about the cor-
raj. Swarthy, sombreroed men with
zarapes swung over their shoulders,
sitting their horses in silence; and
within the scabbard of each a rife

RETENTION OF BODY WASTES

Although there is no reason 10 Ina

some psychologists believe the prod

athlete knows this natural recupera-

without sleep for few hours, and
some moderate exercise resumed

This is more effective than mere mas

venting or relieving the unpleasant
effects of fatigue.
From time to time we hear rumors
of the discovery that fatigue can be
indefinitely postponed by taking doses
of potassium phosphate Or something
of the kind. Also that some profess

antitoXin which immunizes one against
fatigue The answer to these rumors
is horse feathers. Rest is the remedy

CHAPTER LVI


Again in silence they drove out
toward the hacienda of Morales, fear
and foreboding in the heart of each
as to what might be the end.
At last the low hacienda doomed in
the distance. fanked by its long shad-
ows of eucalyptus. A brooding quiet
lay over the place, menacing watch
fulness. and once the girl shivered
as if some cold current of air had
touched her. Again she was placing
herself and the man she loved in
the hands of his enemies-they were
stalking everything on the slender
chance of winning the sympathy of
Morales. Something within her kept
warning that it YVES a lost cause,
telling her to turn back while yet
there was time. Resolutely she put
the thought from her and sped on.
The great black gates stood open
and they drove up to the entrance
of the deserted patio. No servants
ran out to announce them. Their
steps echoed on the polished tile,
and still no sound came from within.
"Where can they be?" She whis-
pered.
Inside, the ,nacaw regarded them
silently from his perch in the patio.
Then light football sounded behind
them and from out the gloom Tito
came forward. With that silent. cat
like tread of his he strobe up to
them, and in the gathering twilight
the two men stood again face to
face while the memories Of their
enmity rose like unbidden spectcrs
between them. To the girl he made
no sign of recognition, but fastened
his dark eyes on Ted.
"Por Dios," the Mexican's deep
voice rumbled through the silent
house, Il begin to think you are
truly a very brave man seiior.
Would it be hard for you to UNDER
stand that the thing want most
in life is once more to get my fingers

A wave of blind fury swept over
Ted at the mans TONGA longing to

himself in leash. then slowly. the red
anger within him died. There were
more important issues at stake.
Adela had already stepped be-
tween. "Where is uncle, Jito?" she
asked quickly.
The Mexican jerked his head
toward the stairs. "In his room.
Ever since you ran away he has been
there. You will not find him ami
able"
Il find no one amiable in this for

him. Then to Ted, II want to tall;
to uncle in his room. Stay here

She ran her arm through Jito's.
"Come, big one" she smiled trem-

Ted, then dropped to Adela's up

turned and followed her.
Ted watched them mount the
stairs and moment later heard the
distant closing of a door.

Silence fell. Filled with misgiving
Ted walked about the patio. Once
he stepped out to gaze on the pur-
ping desert. Every nerve within
him was carrying some message of
impending danger. some warning in
the silence urging him to leave be-
fore too late. Impaticntly he shook
his head. He had to come. There
was no other way. Lighting a Gig

cards, and now all their hope CEN

and listened. No sound. And yet
Adela must know by now whether
it was life or death. Would they
never come down? Even now it must
all be decided up there. His restless
pace increased. Would she have her

Then. as if in answer, he heard

for the stairs. A door opened as he
ran down the stadowy hall. and di-
rectly ahead of him something

from above. His feet grated on the
