CHAPTER v

Despite a refreshing GOODNESS in
the air as they rode toward home,
the mercury scared next day.
Promising though the breeze had
seemed, it came to a discouraged
end before Don got to sleep, and
after few short hours Of restless
slunber he wakened to a sense of
suffocation. The only window of his
small room faced east, and already
the sun, streaming across his bed,
felt scorching.
The day before on seeing wom-
an walking the hot pavement with q
summer fur" thrown over her
shoulders, Don had judged her can
imbecile." Now, with q glance at
his own dark suit hanging neatly
across a chair, he called himself
something even stronger, and ris-
ing, delved into his trunk in search
of some long-packed linen trousers,
the work of a native tailor in ia
maica. The fact that they needed
pressing was immaterial. At least,
they would be more bearable than
serge. A glance into the hall showed

Arctic explorer, had made an inn
preston; and several people had
spoken warmly about the fellow.
Folks liked him, apparently. And he
was doing well enough in the office,
considering that the work was new
to him--that he'd had no training.
No doubt Don would see, after a
while, that q man with a family
must settle down. Yes, James went
to bed in a peaceful frame OF mind.
Not so Nora. To save Don the
trip across town by trolley she had
driven out and picked him up at
his boarding place. He was waiting
for her on the steps in white trou-
sers and blue coat-the correct pic
ture of a handsome young man APP
propriately attired for hot eve
ming; but one glance told the astute
Nora that something was wrong.
She said, returning his somewhat
patient smile of greeting: "Hop in,
Don; but slip your coat off first. No
reason for being more uncomforta-
BILE than necessary"
"Oh, may II"
At his tone, Nora threw covert
glance in Don's direction. On edge,
she decided; and answered tactful-
ly: "Of course you may. Toss it in
back. You can take off your neck
tie too. for all Of me-"
His face softened. Save for that

Science Hunts Yardstick for Energy
Displayed by Both Man and Animals

The first known clinical museum
in the world for the study of COM
parative glandular effects on body
energy has been established in
Cleveland.
A years research by three expe-
ditions, two within the United
States and the third to Africa, led
by Cleveland's DR.. George w. Grille,
renowned brain surgeon and gland
specialist, are the basis for its foun-
dalton.
The exhibit, containing thirty
eight specimens, is composed Of
everything from a guinea hen to an
elephant. Each is mounted and ac-
companied by life-size models, taxi
en- from actual organs, of its thy
roid gland, adrenal glands, brain
and heart.
DIR. Grille believes the research
will result in definite step toward
mathematical measurement of the
relationship between gland size and
animal energy.
OF most interest to the surgeon is
the fact that man is the only animal
in whom the thyroid gland is pre-
vailingly larger than the adrenal.
DIR. Grille disclosed that he has dis
covered a specific relationship ex-
isting between the size Of energy
producing glands and the speed with

She answered, her low voice very
gentle: II think you exaggerate

Their told me that you were doing
well. He's not discouraged with
your progress, dear; but Ned makes
you nervous. And why shouldn't
he? I've felt his scorn, too, Don.
I know how it hurts. For a long
time I've suspected that he despises
me a little because of my birth.
Ned's SO conventional. He can't help
feeling a bit uncomfortable, sup
pose, that anybody born as I was
should be his sister,"
There was silence before Don
said grimly: eff I believed that,
Nora, II think I'd kill him with
my bare hands!"
Thanks, dear; but that wouldn't
help matters" Nora spoke lightly,
and the tension of the moment
broke, as she wished it to. "Be-
sides, Ned has his own good points,
you know. He's devoted to Dad, un-
selfshly devoted, I am sure; and
his morals are-impeccable! There
are even moments when he's low
able-when could love him myself,
if he'd let me. But you mustn't
look for understanding in a man of
Ned's type, darling. It may not
be his fault that he sees only one
side of life. He was probably born
that way, and nothing has happened
since to change him. Gee! isn't
that breeze delicious? Perhaps to-
morrow will be more bearable. I'm
going to take you home this min
ute, Don. You need sleep more than
conversation. How's the head now?"
Better, beloved, thanks to your
ministrations.
This was a lie told cheerfully in
her behalf; but Nora, her eyes on a
spasmodically twitching eyebrow,
was not deceived.

~ TIPS to
Gardeners
Miscellaneous Tips

BEFORE planting, work soil
- deeply, making the top three
or four inches as fine and loose as
possible. q
For better termination, pour
water into the drill or furrow just
before sowing. Use enough wa
ter to moisten the soil, but not
enough to cause caking.
If you have had little experience
and wish to try the vegetables
easiest to grow, select radishes,
carrots, beets, Swiss chard, and
turnips. With a good-sized garden
you might add spinach, peas,
beans and corn.
If your garden is small and you
wish to increase the total yield,
try the following quick-growing
vegetables:
Radish, leaf lettuce, beets, car
rots, peas and beans. You can
replant most of these after space
has been made for them by early
harvest.
Do not plant seeds deeper than
directed. After planting cover
seeds Immediately, pressing the
soil down firmly.

Many Varieties of Honey

How's your taste for honey? Are
you one of those fortunate people
who has really studied honey, and
can identify the many varieties of
this sweet by taste? The true hon.
ey-lover begins to recognize types as
soon as he sees it. BY its taste he
can tell what part Of the world it
came from; and from which flowers
the bees drew the nectar. Red and

Don really smiled.
''I'm afraid don't know what the
lady looks like. My formality was
the result of an ugly disposition, I
suppose. You looked so cool and
comfortable and sleeveless, darling,
it made me resentful. I've been so
damnably hot AIN day. Will you

One soft hand left the wheel,
touching his moment. Then she
said briskly:
