time the baby is 3 months old, 1t should be receiving the juice of one-half orange; and after that 1t may have the juice. of an entire orange each day.
 Tomato juice and other fruit juices occasionally are substituted for orange juice.
 Cod liver oil should be started early in infancy, beginning with a balf teaspoonful twice a day, the dose gradually increasing until the baby is getting one teaspoonful three times Q day. This will be well beyond the amount necessary to prevent most babies from getting rickets.
 Many doctors believe that the baby should have extra iron, even early in infancy. It is customary to begin various cereals when the baby is 6 or 2 months old.
 The new strained and Sieved vegetables and fruits make 1t pos. sible now to give egg yolk, vege- tables and fruits to babies at in- creasingly early ages, and thus provide them with substances neces- sary to prevent the appearance of deficiency diseases.
 Do not change food every time the baby has symptom This does not apply to the reduction of the amount of food, or to the stop ping of all food, when the baby has digestive troubles.

PARIS STYLES CHATS

, The round-toed shoe is trimmed like an American Indian moccasin with small thongs of leather woven in and out the border line to form an interesting binding, while little tongues rise up on the instep. Both high and low heels are shown in these models.
 For afternoon and evening, the square-toed shoe promises to be smart. For afternoon, the smart walking shoes are shown in brown kid and suede and in bot tie green kid, also cocodile. These square-tipped shoes are made on the principle of a built-up oxford with shorter instep lacings and slgihtly higher heels than the morn- ing shoes.
 Shoemakers are meeting the de- inand for tailored midnight suits with royal blue and emerald green kid trimmed with gold or darker shade of the same kid. These are seen in both pumps and sandals, the latter still more popular.
 TODAY'S FASHION TIP
 Shoes are becoming more and more ornate. The latest shapes are in colored kid with either rounded or squared toes.

Love Thrives Only On Right
 Understanding

Polly Is clearly the center of at- traction here. "What does Jack see in her" Elaine wonders. She doesn't seem at all the loving type of girl who would make good wife.
 Well Elaine, perhaps you have Q bit to learn about men, what they find likable in girls. and what makes Q good wife. You know how merry and good-natured Polly al- ways 1t. And have you noticed how she draws him out about his job and his hobbies? She's learned that q man likes fun and likes to be looked up to. Keeping this point of view after marriage is one way to help make 1t Q success.
 So you see, Elaine, you might take Q tip from Polly-and from our 32-page booklet on love written by 6 pSychiatrist. It tells how to understand men and their foibles, the difference between Q mans love and girls, the right approach to love, how to be successful in mar riage and many other love prob- lerns.

 Paris - (U.P) While dresses and coats continue on fairly sim pie lines, all sorts of emphasis is being placed on the heads and toes of smart Paristennes. The new hats are so absurd as to shape, so color ful as to decoration and so fancy as to yelling, that they are laugh able.

CHAPTER xIII-continued


On this, something like relief
flickered in Vests eyes but it was
Of short duration. This Young was
not the sort of man who fees in
the face Of as flimsy charge as
had been placed against him. He
had hoped at the most to keep Ker-
ry in safe confinement until Bridg-
er and the prosecutor could perfect
q case against Holt Stuart which
would forever remove from his own
breast those cancerous fears. But
"Gone, eh?" he muttered. well,
you've been made a monkey of by
him. How'll folks think of that
when they go to vote for sheriff
again? I tell you, Bridger, you got
one chance: that's to start things
movin' against Stuart and not let
'em stop!"
well, I'm tryin', amt I? But
what can 1 do when Ezra's sittin'
on the evidence?'
'Then you better use what you
call your mind md drum up some
thin to make Ezra string along
with you'll"
"But the laws with the coroner!"
ITO hell with the law. ;"
They argued aimlessly at length
and when Bridger was gone Tod
West paced the room and that fine
beading of sweat pricked out on his
forehead again.
''Damn!" he snarled. damn (. /.
damn everything!"
Jim Hinkle was on his way out
toward Shoestring again before
mid-forenoon. He yawned as he
drove and his eyes were infamed.
But he drove one of Mans cars rap
idly into town and turned eastward
and made better time on the high
way. He went into the third town
before he stopped at a telegraph Of
fee and thrust across the counter
the message that Ezra Adams had
entrusted to him.
''State Police Headquarters" the
operator read aloud and then num-
bled the rest.

tered to Tip as he finally gave up
hope and turned away from his bee
box. "They've called it day.
But we can't be far off, now, and
unless it rains tomorrow !"
He found down maple and un-
der it's sheltering bole spread his
blanket finally and, rifle handy, dog
beside him, stretched his tired body.
Rain began to fall and in the dis
lance thunder rumbled. Ills
thoughts turned to Nan, to Ezra
and Holt; then to West. He drew
q long, uneasy breath.
He would have been trifle more
at peace had he known that car,
bearing two men, whirled into Shoe
string from the southwark, lights
glazing with intensified brightness
in the downpour. 1t came to stop
before gas station and one of the
occupants, slicker clad, leaned out:
whats the road to Vests Land
ing?" he asked the boy.
"First to the left and straight on.
Twenty miles. Look out for the
culverts If the creeks is up!"
"Thanks !"
The car pulled away and the one
who had asked directions said. to
the driver:
Don't you want me to take her,
Sergeant? You've had long trick

"We're close, Tip" he muttered.
"Close and closer! Look at 'emW
Dozens Of bees swarmed about
the box, buzzing shrilly.
And an hour after the first Wis
itor had called for his portion of
honey, Young stood at the foot of
a gnarled beech tree, staring up
ward at the old scar in the trunk,
twice as high as his head, watching
the come and go of workers
through the hole that gave access
to the trees hollow heart.
Man sign was there in plenty.
Yonder, a white pine had recently
been blazed and pitch globules
glistened in the sunlight. Brakes
had been trampled down; here a
Seeding maple lay crushed into the
duff, its leaves not yet wilted.
At the base Of the tree lay a sa-
prophyte which, until recently, had
been growing on the Scared por-
ton of the trunk. He could see
where the bracket-like growth had
been attached, two feet above the
ground. He picked up the fungus
and on it's pale, tan velvety surface
showed the print of a heel, even to
the nails, dark brown against the
buff. Some man had used that
bracket in starting to climb that
tree!
On his knees, he searched. The
rain had not struck here with great
force. Small bits Of bark and Itch
ems, with fresh look, were
there. The protruding end Of a
small limb, long since dead and
all but absorbed by the expanding
trunk bore bits Of thread, as If a
garment had been scrubbed over it.
Yes. someone had climbed this
bee tree.
Honey and money! Money
and honey!
Yonder went a trail; faint, yet
readable to Young's eye. Not a
game trail, either; he found the
lily defined outline of a boot sole
there. STOPPED over, he followed.
Broken. withered brakes told that
someone had gone this way weeks
before; broken brakes, still fresh,
attested to a more recent passing.
The sign ended before a pair of
limestone boulders, tilted together,
forming a small cave.
ooh oh!' Another stone had
been set against this opening once;
now it was gone, rolled yonder.
He lay on his belly and shot his
fash-light into the small cavern.
Granules glistened on the
stone; he touched them with his
finger and looked closely. Black,
brittle, glittering flakes they were.
{. s. Lacquer from japanned box?
His mouth was very dry, now,
and he rolled quickly to his side
to stare at the tree. A box the
size Of the one he had dug up yes
terday never could have been con-
cealed in the hollow Of the beech;
the opening was too small. But
box had been hidden here, and
man had climbed the tree. And
honey had daubed the man who
handled both box and crowbar.
I'm a son-of-a-gun!" he cried.
"I'll be q ;" And on his feet
there his face showed, for just an
instant, a flash Of admiration for
the ingenuity which had laid out
this course. In the course he
now suspected actually had been
followed.
He had been right about the
cabin on Townline. 1t was short
mile there and he covered the dis
tance at a jog trot, Tip close be-
hind. He halted at the edge of the
clearing to look and listen and
then went forward without hesita-
ton.

CHAPTER XIV

T Under the driving Of the
- wedges the tree split and its
halves rolled apart at Kerry
Young's feet. A great mass of
brood and comb and oozing honey
glistened in the sunlight.
Young moaned as he dropped the
sledge and tore into the comb with
his gloved hands, wrestling from
that sticky mass the cylindrically
shaped object his quick eyes had
detected. Honey dripped from it;
bees swarmed about his hands as
he turned it over and over.
What a place!" he muttered.
mo mouse could gnaw, no PROV
ling bear find it.. Nothing, Tod
West, except the bees knew!
And who'd hunt for this tree?
Who, if you hadn't left honey stick
ing to that old crowbar?"
He shook off a bee which stung
his wrist. He moved away from
buzzing cloud, making his way to
the leaf dappled spring and, stoop-
ing, plunged the smeared roll of
bills into the crystal waters.
The honey washed away quickly,
dissolving even in the cold water.
He saw a figure on the currency;
it was hundred; many more were
there. He washed them brisk
~ and Tip came close.
Got it, Tip!" he cried. "Got dear
Mans cash! We've ;"
Young whirled, then, because the
dog had turned, stiff and alert and
opened his throat in a ragged
growl. In the soft earth, Kerry's
one foot slipped and he had start
ed to fall over as rifle spoke,
started to throw himself toward
his own rifle, leaning against a boul-
der. -. That other weapon barked
and he went down with the agon-
les of hell itself tearing at his left
shoulder.
So it was Tip who rushed Tod
West, who charged forward as the
man emerged from the brush, rifle
at ready. Tip who, with teeth
showing, and eyes wicked with an
orange flare, stood alone between
Nan Downer's money and the man
who had cached it so cunningly!
Again the rifle cracked and the
dog, yelping, swapping at his right
hind leg, went end over end
through the underbrush, threshing,
rolling, screaming with pain as Tod
West charged past him =.
Young had fallen face down into
the muck about the spring. His
right hand lay Imply in the water
and away from it, rocked by the
little ripples which still disturbed
the surface, foated the roll of bills,
turning slowly around and around.
West saw the money. With an
oath he snatched it up and pumped
a fresh cartridge into the rifle
chamber. He poised there above
the figure of his Nemesis, dropping
the muzzle quickly to the back of
his barred head.
And then caution asserted itself.
How far behind pursuit might be,
Tod did not know. Already, he
had fred twice, and sounds would
carry well today. He stopped, lis
tening. The pound Of his heart,
the rasp of his own breath were
loud. He lifted Young's arm and
let it go. The inert hand smacked
the water duly.
Then, with cruel craft, he placed
his foot against Young's cheek,
showed his face down into the
spring and leaped the now roily
pool.
breathe md drown, damn you!"
he growled shakily and set off at
q slow run. -.
1t was the Juggling Of the whin-
ing dog on his collar which stirred
Kerry. He stirred and gulped and

his rifle, made burden of conse.
quence and by the time he reached
the tree again sweat bathed his
excited body.
From the netting he improvised
a veil, adjusting it over his hat
and tucking the edges into the neck
Of the jumper. He put on the
gloves, tied the jumper sleeves
tight about his wrists and picked
up the ak.
Tip. ). Yonder!" He gestured
in command. "Away back and lie
down! There's going to be a lot
of hostility here in minute!"
He waited until the dog had
obeyed and then sent the bit of
the ak deep into the beech.
He was right about the hostility.
Not a half dozen blows had been
struck before they were upon him
in a cloud, buzzing angrily, seek
ing ways through his veil and gar
ments for countless stingers. But
Kerry was well protected and
swung his ak steadily, eating a
great cash in the trunk. Oh, one
or two got to his wrists, and now
and again he felt a burning prick
on the shoulders when his jumper
stretched tight. But that was as
nothing, in this interval Of sus-
pense.
The tree sagged and shivered. It
snapped and swayed. He struck
three more swift blows and stepped
back as it came down with
mighty, swishing roar and crash.
He had dropped the ak as the
beech toppled. Now he took up
the saw and, standing in a cloud
Of furious bees which lowered over
the entrance to their fallen store
house, he sent the teeth singing
through the stout wood. Swiftly,
his supple body swung to and fro,
stoutly his long, strong arms drove
the avid blade. The forest rang
with the sound. Rang with the
sound which would have covered
even the noise made by a frantic
man, crashing through brush, run
ming intently, breathlessly, his hat
gone and face scratched and cloth
ing torn.
No, the man was not close
enough to have the sounds Of his
progress reach Young. But he was
close enough to hear the ringing
echo Of that saw. He drew
hand across his face to wipe away
the blood and the sweat and tried
to still his breathing to listen. His
trembling lips shaped word and
then he went forward, cautiously,
walking like a cat, rifle held at
ready. i. AS he approached the
source of those other sounds, which
had now changed from that of
saving to blows of a sledge on
metal, he bent forward trifle and
went even more slowly, more quiz
city.
= = .
Vests Landing and it's environs
had experienced two long evenings
and one long day Of an excitement
pitched to point never before at
tanned there.
And now the second day was be-
ginning. Work was forgotten where
it could be and before Mel Knights
store was gathered a group which
argued and debated and Grated and
broke short anything it happened
to be saying when another arrived,
just on the chance that he would
be the bearer of fresh incident.
Holt Stuart was in Jail. Nan
Downer, it was said, had brought
in lawyer from outside yesterday
and the three had been together
in Nat Bridger's Office for long but
no attempt to secure Stuart's re-
lease had been made as yet.
Kerry Young had escaped during
the first night of his imnriSOnment
