 Toby felt Q hand on her shoulder and turned. Harriet was beside her "Oh," Toby breathed. I'm glad you're here, Harriet"
 "T've been here for five min utes," Harriet said, "but 1t took me this long to get to you" She slipped on arm around the other girl. "What in the world happened Toby? Who Is that terrible person4'
 T don't know" Tears of relief shone in Toby's eyes. She tried tc wipe them away. T don't know anything about him, except that he must be crazy"
 It was more than an hour after ward that the girls heard the full story. They had been allowed to 60 home in e cab when Hiatt and the stranger set off for the police ste- ton with the officer.
 Toby tried to tell Harriet what had happened. T looked for you, she said, land you weren't in sight Then I stopped to look at the store window"
 "They had some new square.toed pumps at Vandenmeyer's," Harriet explained. T went in to try them on, and then I came out and ran into Marty. And Q good thing, tool We both knew something was wrong the minute we saw you. Say - Marty certainly socked that fellow didn't he2"
 "He certainly did. I don't think I was ever gladder to see anyone in my life than when saw Marty "He ran ahead of me. It looked aS though the fellow was trying to make you go somewhere"

 "That was Q little more serioul that affair of the movie actress. Hiatt said. "He had Q gun then Wasn't Q very good marksmaT, be- cause all he hit was the shade of 6 floor lamp"

CHAPTER xxIx

Toby drew back. "But you're mistakenl" she said. "You must think I'm somone else-"
 "Y,m not mistaken" The mans eyes gleamed dangerously. You're my Dream Girl I've been looking everywhere for you and now that I've found you, you're not going to get away. We're going to be married. Now. This afternoor1l"
 Toby knew now where she had seen him. It was the man who had followed her that afternoon . few weeks before. She had slipped into Q store and evaded him.
 But she could not do that now AS though reading her thoughts the man caught her arm. Come ont" he said. "You're going with mel"
 Tcby tried to free her arm. This was insane, c nightmarel She was on one of the busiest streets in New York in the middle of the afternoon There must be dozens of people about -- she looked to the right and to the left. There had been doze1a of people about . moment before. Now, suddenly, there was no one.
 @But you can't-" she began,
 sOh, yes, can. Dream Girl, l lovO you. Don't you understand YOW're the one I've been searching for. We're going to 90 away to- gether."
 A madman, that was what he wRsI And he might be danger GUS. He looked aS though he would bo dangerous. Toby raised fright ened eyes, ''PleaseI" she said. "You're hurting my arm"
 She tried again to draw away but the man chuckled knowingly "0h, mol" he leered. You're not going to get away from me thh time. Come on - we've got tc hurry"
 He took Q step forward, pulling ct her arm roughly.
 Panic stricken, Toby forgot cau' ton. She forgot everything ex. Cept that somehow she must get away from this insane man. "NoP she cried. "No-l"
 And then Q figure hurled itself between her and the stranger. 4 voice snapped, 'Take your handi off that grill"
 It was Marty Hiatti Toby had no time to wonder where he hac come from. Marty was there, be- side her. She cried, "Oh, Marty make him go awayI Make him sol"
 But the man with the gleaminl eyes refused to move. Instead ht said to Hiatt menacingly, "LooE outl" A hand moved toward hti l pocket. Hiatt, quicker, shot 6 fis' toward the mans jaw.

out again. By the way. his name iS Jonas HuckleberTy. What do you think of that3"
 "Jonas FEuckleberTyI" Both girls spoke in chorus.
 "Why, yes" Hiatt looked sure prised. "Does that name mean a1y- thing to you7"
 Docs it" They told him about the letter Toby had received, signed "Jonas Huckleberry."
 Have you got 1t around still7" Hiatt asked. If you have, m turn 1t over to the police"
 But the letter written on pink notepaper had disappeared. Toby laughed about it, after Hiatt had gone. "so my first proposal" she said, twas from Q crazy man"
 Don't worry. YOu1l get plenty more."
 The excitement over Jonas NuckleberTy continued for c day or two. Newspapers printed reports Of the affair, with pictures of Toby. She didn't know how they got them. Bill Brandt telephoned and chided her about her nut" admirer. Jay Hillyer showed more concern. He seemed satisfied later that there was no reason for further alarm, though he said to Toby, If you get any more of those 'fah letters lot me know ahoaik ik. We'li have them investigated. You can't afford to take chances"
 At the Model League office Toby heard stories of other girls who he'd had somewhat similar experi- enceS. The League did everything possible to protect models, under no circumstances giving out names or addresses, checking telephone calls, occasionally even taking legal nleas- ures. Now and then, however, as in Toby's case, this vigilance would be circumvented.
 Presently everyone forgot about Jonas Huckleberry. Harriet was buster than ever with her shop. ping, counting the days until Clyde would be back. She and Toby both were to take part in Q fashion show -an important one, for buyers.
 The show was to be given ct Q hotel and there was Q rehearsal in the morning. AS usual, the ell" max of the affair was to be Q wed- ding scene. Harriet was chosen for the bride.
 Toby had to leave the rehearsal for another appointment and stopped ct the apartment on the way back. There was Q letter for Harriet and she dropped it into her purse.
 She did not think of the letter again until near the close of the show. A maid was helping Harriet into the ivory satin wedding gown. Toby, waiting in her bridesmaid cos- tune, turned suddenly.
 Harriet" she said, "youre the loveliest bride I've ever seen."
 Harriet smiled. "1t's Q beautiful dress, Isn't it?"
 Tt IS, and the way you look, wear ing 1t, you'd certainly tempt any man into Inatrimony."
 "But don't want any man. l want Q certain one"
 That was when Toby reTneTn- bered the letter. Because, of course, 1t was from Clyde. She had recog- nized his handwriting. Toby said, Heavens, darling, I brought you letter and forgot all about it!"
 She went to her hand bag, ruTn- maging through 1t and came back. Here 1t is," she said. I'm terribly sorry I didn't think of 1t sooner"
 "Thats all right" Harriet smiled as she tore open the envelope.
 Someone spoke to Toby and she crossed the room. It was several moments before sine was back. She came up to Harriet, and stopped abruptly. "Iarrieti" she exclaimed. Harriet, what's happened?" l INHA mA

CARE OF HENS BIG
ITEM IN PROFITS
Feeding, Housing, Manage
ment Are Important.

BY a. N. Ferguson. Poultry Specialist. Ohio
STATE University.-wNU Services.
Poultry production cost records
prove that you cannot turn q flock
Of hens out in the backyard and
then rapidly become rich by gath
ering eggs for sale.
Buildings and equipment owned
by the 116 Ohio poultrymen, who
kept cost accounts in 1895, involved
an investment Of more than $1,100
per flock or $3.18 per bird. The
records were kept by owners Of
large flocks who were experienced
poultrymen and who have more
than average ability in managing
the flocks.
Two Of the focks lost money for
their owners during 1885, AZ earned
a labor income of from ! cent to
81 per hen, SO made labor income
Of from 81 to 81 per hen. and sew
en- fiocks paid a labor income OF
more than 81 per hen It is APP
parent that there is a variation in
returns from poultry even when
managed by competent poultry
men.
The greatest single factor in in
fuencing the returns from these
Ohio focks was the average egg
production per hen. The focks
which returned the greatest prof
its produced an average Of 100 eggs
per bird per year. The least prof
table flocks averaged 124 eggs per
hen.
The ability of hens to lay eggs
is largely a matter of inheritance,
but feeding, housing, and manage
ment practices also affect the rate
of egg production. The selection
Of chicks from flocks with good
production records is the only
method Of securing pullets with in
herited ability for high egg produc-
ton but even the good pullets cam
not produce at their maximum rate
unless they are well fed.
Feed represents about go per
cent Of the total cost Of producing
dozen eggs so the p~oultryman
who is to make q profit on his
flock must watch feed prices close
ly and be ready to substitute q
lower priced feed for a costly one
whenever possible.

Make Rat Control Part
of Poultry Farm Routine

Even one rat is an expensive II
ability on a poultry farm, for be-
sides committing wholesale muir
der among the chicks it will con-
sumo as much as 60 pounds Of
feed a year, says ]. c. Taylor, as
sociate extension poultryman at the
New Jersey College Of Agriculture,
Rutgers university.
The first step in controlling rats
on q poultry farm is to establish a
definite cleaning program so that
the rats will not find suitable condi-
tions for a home. Begin this pro-
gram by cleaning all the buildings
and removing all dumps and rub
Dish piles.
Poisonous bats give further pro-
lection against the rat menace,
but the poison must be selected
and used with care. Red squill
powder is probably the most salts
factory. It is relatively harmless
to human beings and domestic ami
mails, but is sure death to rats.
Mix one ounce Of the red squill
powder with enough water to form
q paste and add it to one pound Of
meat, fish or cereal bait. Put the
bats in places where the rats will
find them easily.

Greetings!

Not all peoples greet each other
with our familiar handshake. For
example, the hug and squeeze,
cheek to cheek, is used in
France. Among the New Zea-
landers, the Malays, Burmese,
Indo-C Chinese, the Mongolians and
even the Eskimos and Laplanders
the shongi'' is the thing. This
consists in touching noses lightly.
The word itself means to
smell" When q Chinese is in
troduced he shakes hands with
himself. !,
The Italians and Germans have
revived the ancient Roman greet
ing as a military salute. Reports

Africa, as it is now called, indi-
cate that the Italians are teach

Pullet Ration

The protein content of the pullet
ration need not be so high as in
the starting ration. Grain, pro-
tein supplement, minerals and vi
tamins must all be supplied for
growing pullets but in somewhat
Different proportions than for
chicks, says a writer in the Prairie
Farmer. The all-mash chick start
er can be converted into a very
satisfactory growing mash by eli
Their increasing the amount of grain
in the mash or by feeding whole
or cracked grain in addition to the
mash.

Soy Bean Meal Ration

Poultrymen can reduce the costs
of rations for chicks and for the
laying flock by substituting pres
sure-cured soy bean meal for part
Of the high priced ingredients that
are used to furnish the birds pro-
tein, according to r. E.. Cray, poul-
try specialist at Ohio State univer-
sity. Dried milk and meat scraps,
two common materials used to fur
nish protein in poultry rations, cost
more than the soy bean meal; the
