 "Oat-burnerp He's going to be Q stake horse"
 "All rightl Stake horse, then. No, I won't give you an advance; but" he paused for an instant; Llnda's heart raced quickly as she waited--for ages 1t seemed. Now he was speaking again-in warm, human tones:
 Here's Q little surprise: while we don't give advances, your Man O War story was so good that we're paying 0 flat five hundred for it--but you go on salary with the others. Fair enoughp"
 "Ohl" the exclamation of relief yelled up, went over the wires to New York. Linda heard an- other chuckle: he was playing God to his own satisfaction, She caught heHself. Said quickly: Tt is fair enough, MT. Moss, If" = she hesitated If I get a $25 raise over what you offered me-"
 "Whoa, therel You sound like @ mule-traderp
 "You want my mules, don't youp"
 "All right, all right. But get those yarns in - and they better be good"
 "one last request" she asked him to transfer the five hundred by telegraph to the bank in Lexing- ton.
 The night train from the racing city carried a cashiers check for $4o0 to Brown Donald Esq, care of Q woman named Merle.
 "Callie, the fall race meet has started at the Downs" Linda said at breakfast the next morning, Would you like to go to Louisville with me2"
 Would IF Yes, ma'aml An if I sees that triflin' Norman" she grinned, left the sentence unfin- ished.
 Then pack up; we'll close the house. We'll take Q cottage be- hind the track" At late twilight their car stopped in front of @ tackroom on Poverty Row at the Downs: where the one and two-horse sta- bles are housed. Uncle Sandyp Linda called. Norman's woolly head looked out. "Howdy, Miss Linda" then he saw Callie. Went into action. "I-I got business He scurried out, disappeared be- hind 0 manure pile. Callie shouted; "You triflin' stable-han'"
 Then Uncle Sandy came to the door. To, Linda" he said cas- ually. "You're just in time, I eX- pect Smiling Tom Cartright - and here he comes" (To Be Continued)

CHAPTER XIII

"Gonep" Linda couldn't believe her ears.
 "Yes, ma'am" Callie spoke with righteous indignation. "You aint out O the house good befo' Mir Sandy calls Norman. They talks, then starts packin' up. Mir Sandy calls a auto-van, they puts the colt in, they climbs in their-selves, an drives off"
 "Where did they go, Calliep"
 "Mr. Sandy, he don say noth- in. But that triflin' Norman, he makes a face at me as they drives of; he waves his cap an shouts, yves off to the Downs, we is' An they wuz, too"
 But thought Norman had got religion; turned against racing"
 Callie sniffed. "1'hey turns against women, Miss Linda. An that no-'count Norman, he owes me weddin, he do."
 Linda leaned against a porch post, laughed till tears came uncle Sandy, Norman -- for years they had lived without benefit of skirts. Suddenly two women - Linda, Callie - had descended on them. It was too much for old bachelors, content In their misery Thanks to luck, they had their hands on a colt again, So, in their last years, they were off to the races once more,
 "Its all right Callie; I'll be here & while. And If Golden Toy wins the Jockey Club Stakes, l imagine Norman will keep his word-give you that wedding"
 "Ie better, or I skins him alive"
 Linda untied Jerry, went into her room. Laid away her clothes. Tn the long, furious drive home she had worn of much of her sudden loathing of Brown Donald Now she pitied him - a last minute version of the gigolo. The lad wanted to have his cake and eat 1t, too.
 She recalled the moments by the tree-lined lake, in the moons rays. That was high romance; so unlike the scene when Brown Donald turned from her, answered the widows imperious call
 "Jerry," she looked down at the solemn -Visaged Scot, this love- at-Grst-sight business, It's no dice -,eur me. Get that, don't youp" The dog shook Q stubby tail ten- tatayely.
 She remembered Bruce's warn- ings, Monte's vailed hint ct Don- ald, "Old friends are sometimes bost, aren't they, Jerry9" The dog must have agreed; his tail thumped the floor with vigor.
 She remembered Bruce Radford's awkward call, as she was leaving Lexington. She'd thought Bruce was trying to get the Inner track again. Nov she understood. Good old Bruce" she murmured. He knew Donalds color; had tried to warn her.
 "Jerry, your misses sees trouble brewing about the ownership Of . Pompey colt. Want to buy half interest?"
 Jerry must have believed, with Monte Hill, that women and racing don't mix; for, without Q single tail- wag, he got up deliberately, moved under the bed.
 'Callie," Linda said at break fast, we're going to let 'erl stew in their own juices at the Downs eor few weeks"

 IN STAMPS
Voyage That Started
 Dorwin's Greet Work

AT % years of age, Charles Rob. A ert Darwin stepped aboard the British ship Beagle as naturalist for a surveying expedition. The Beagle set sail in December, 1881, first visiting the Cape de Verde and other Atlantic islands. Then it sailed down the South Ameri. can coasts exploring adjacent islands, including Galapagos, and afterwards Tahiti, New Zealand, St. Helena, Ascension and the Azores on the way home. On his return in October, 1886, young Darwin had already taken notes for many volumes.
 The voyage of the Beagle had been his real preparation for a brilliant career. For on this trip Darwin had observed the relation between animals on the islands and on the continent, between living animals and fossil remains. And thus he first reflected on the modification of the species.
 By 1887 he had written: "Selec. ton is the keystone of mans sue. cess" From this point Darwin plunged deeper into the theory of evolution, emerging finally with his great work, "On the Origin of Speeies," in l850. The whole cdi- ton of i2S0 copies was exhausted on the day of issue, and a storm of controversy broke immediately over the book. But Darwin had made his niche in science. Later he published Descent of Man" md other notable books. He died on April 10, 1882, leaving two daughters and Ave sons. Four of the sons attained emInence in the vEskmsEG,sN field of science.

Treated ia District.

A seasonal increase OF the dread
poliomyelitis or infantile paralysis
today had all the Districts iron
lungs" In use to keep alive by artificial
respiration three patients whose chest
muscles are SO paralyzed that they
cannot breathe normally.
District health authorities said the
number Of cases of the disease here
now did not constitute an epidemic,
but that 1t was extremely rare for three
patients to be in such critical condi-
tion as to require use of the Iron
lung" machines at the same time. 1t
was the first time they could recall
all the three machines available here
being used at once.
Eleven persons now are being treat
ed for infantile paralysis in District
hospitals, Health Department records
show Nine cases were reported in
August and eight in September. There
have been 10 cases reported since
January /. A patient from Alexan-
dria, Va, died August 13. the only
death attributed to the disease here
this year.
Prevalence h AveraEe.
Ofacials said prevalence of the dis
ease now was about average for this
time Of year. the season when 1t is
most active.

DR.. Bocock explained that an emer-

The only other such artificial respir-

said. is one at Children's Hospital. which
is used for infants BON prematurely

the infantile paralysis patients.
Others Of the IL victims OF the
disease listed in District Hospital were
stricken less severely than the three

and most OF them were reported re-
covering. Physicians explained 1t was
advisable for infantile paralysis pa

to his employees today regarding the
new rules.
Equity and law rules Of the past, {"
he said, ARE abolished. Nevertheless,
there viii be many questions arising
under the new rules with which those
who have handled equity in the past
will be more familiar than those who
have handled the law work, and vice
versa.
For the present, therefore, have
decided that the civil work OF the
clerks Office should be run as one divi-
sion, thus bringing the most expert
enced men Of both equity and law In
constant relation on the new rules In
order that at all times the best judg-
ment Of the ONCE may be brought to
bear on problems which are sure to
arise"
