CHAPTER vi

The Wexford farm was up a lonely
road about two miles from the acad-
emy. Wilton Payne walked there
alone, for he wanted to put his
thoughts In some kind of orderly array
before talking to Sally Wexford on the
folly of superstition. What he grad
ualiy evolved from his rather confused
emotions was the theory that all super
slitions are woven around some fact.
They may enibroider this fact to the
point of fantasy, but It remains solid
center beneath the tapestry of imagin-
alton. What was the fact at .Lostland
academy from which people departed
into the uncertain and shivery region
OF fears and fancies? With his best
efforts, Wilton could run down but
two facts of enough Importance to
set In motion the machinery Of haunt.
ings or Of some blight that killed all
Joy Of living In the ancient academy.
One was the sudden deaths Of four
adored children, with the consequent
illness and mental impairment OF Doc
tor Bracebridge; the other the by
product of the first-the four wax
figures.
Sally herself admitted him to the
chilly hall Of the farmhouse. with its
striped green-and-white paper and
green glass hanging lamp and ushered
him into the darkened best room and
invited him to be seated on one of
a set Of horsehalr chairs. from which
he could contemplate another glass
lamp in a nest Of knitted wool-all
shells and balls; and the oval-framed
photographs Of the family.

SYNOPSIS

On her way to q faculty position in

Prof. Arthur Fleming. also on his way
TO the Academy. At the school they
are struck by an air of mystery per-
vading the place. Gordon Haskell, pro-
prietor. welcomes them. Wilton Payne
completes the Academy faculty. In a
schoolroom Janet finds a group which
the teachers had supposed were schol-
ars. are wax figures. Haskell explains
unusual circumstances connected with
the conduct Of the Academy. Among
the pupils is Berenice Bracebridge.
daughter of the late owner of the
school. The story of the tragedy of
Isostiand Academy Is that of two Sis
ters and two brothers OF Berenice,
who lost their lives in the water, some
years ago. The wax figures were mod
eied In the likenesses of the four. and
Doctor Bracebridge's will provided
that they must be preserved. Payne
learns from Berenice that an uncouth

ell is named Balder, and is a valuable
servant. From Jerry Moore, the only
witness of the drowning of the chill.

tragedy. He begins to take an increas-

does in Janet. Reading diaries kept by

Birds Display Ennlity
at Sight Of Airplane

Birds are more frightened of air
planes than are big game, an Eng
lish aviator reports. When flying
over Britain / have noticed that the
pheasant, partridge, and even the
domesticated hen, are thoroughly
scared when an airplane drones in
their direction. They appear to think
that a plane is giant hawk about
to swoop down on them. It is a Curl
GUS assertion among people who
lived on the east coast of Britain
during the World war that they re-
ceived their first warning of impend-
ing Zeppelin raids from pheasants.
These pheasants invariably awoke,
began calling to each other and scut-
tered away in fright long before the
noise of aero engines became appar-
ent to human ears.
There are several cases of con-
dors attacking airplanes crossing the
Andes. Once, it is told, large condor
espied an all-metal airplane winging
through the blue. Immediately the
huge bird swooped down and struck
the intruder with stunning force on
the wing. All that was left to tell Of
the encounter was large rent In
the wing, some feathers, and a con-
doris leg complete with its foot.

added.
"The archives Of the parish are kept

"0h. well, there's every reason"
"Yes. every reason"
The two men faced each other across
the marble-topped center table: one
like q study in burnt umber; the other

black and white. Haskell's dead
white hand pressed down against the
marble, his veins as black as the
veins In the stone. His ring had cut
. scarlet circle about his ring finger.

know how oppressive this ancient
place Is to me. I'd like to leave 1t to

of all the dead presidents could come

to-Ah. Berenice, come In"
She stood In the doorway. She had
changed to a black taffeta dress with
many rufrles that stood out like the
netals of black rose. Wilton went
away. Berenice watched him go; and
her guardian, appraising her as the
prettiest Of sublunary girls In that
quaint dress, remarked jealously :
"You have frightened very much since

As to
Huey Long

Mr.. Roosevelt. In fact Huey would
like to be President himself. Political
ambitions combined with a vitriolic
tongue give Huey broad platform
upon which to perform and unless
miss my guess he Is willing to be in
creasingly troublesome to the admin
istraticn.
Huey knows that the administration
is going to overlook no opportunity
for harpooning him. Among the exec
utive departments in Washington, one
hears hints, and sometimes more than
hints, that Huey is vulnerable and
that these weaknesses in his armor
will be exposed In due course. How
much steam the administration can or
will turn on is highly problematical
II must be remembered that II. for ex.
ample, Attorney General Cummings
should authorize or direct any ac
tion against Huey the Louisiana sen.
ator Immediately would capitalize
those orders as an administration
movement to persecute him. In other
words the administration Is In a spot
where II can easily make a martyr
out Of Huey. The result of that would
be to strengthen Huey's position i'm
measurably. am told that any fight
Ing back on. the part Of the admins
tration, in SO far as Huey Long is
concerned, is going to be given long
and serious consideration because
Huey is a political bombshell.

Constipated? !?


Here is the soundest advice anyone
can give on the subject Of laxatives.
1t is based on medical opinion. We
want you to have the benefit of this
information no matter what laxative
you may buy:
The secret of real relief from consti-
patton is reduced dosage. You can't
regulate the bowels unless you can
regulate the help you give them. That
is why doctors use a liquid laxative;
the dose can be measured to a drop.
Avoid laxatives that you can't cut
down in dosage; especially those that
seem to require larger doses than
when you began their use.
Under the doctors care, you usual
ly get liquid laxative. The right
liquid laxative gives the right kind
Of help, and the right amount of
help. Smaller and smaller doses
until you don't need any.
The liquid laxative generally used
is DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It
contains senna and cascara-natural
laxatives that form no habit.
