Zadok Dumbkopf expects the
European war to last long time.
For one thing, Dummy points out,
there's such i shortage over there
that Europeans don't have enough
oil to throw on the troubled wa

which lead to their hideout. Often,
when the water is rather rough,
these shrimps are washed ashore.
Sometimes as you comb the beach
for shell, after heavy storm, you
will be rather astonished at the
number of small and agitated crea-
lures that are doing their level
best to get back to a soft medium
where they can dig their way out
of sight
Then you will get some idea of
the mantis shrimp and see how
really different it is in every way
from the lobster. The subject UNI
der your inspection will squirm and
make heroic efforts to escape. but
it is small enough to be subdued.
You will find this shrimp is as in
teresting as many of the other ma
r1ne invertebrates with which it
Is found.
The carapace or upper shell of
the mantis is much smaller than
the Holsters and it is softer. The
last three segments of the thorax
are unprotected.
Mantis shrimps have large abb
domens-another big difference be-
tween the true lobster and this
shrimp. The legs and organs are
not similar at all. In the mantis
shrimp we find the entire body
depressed, while in the lobster it
is laterally compressed. This ami
may grows to length of eight to
10 inches and about two inches
in width.
Instead of having chelae the last
joint of the giant claw has six
sharp spines, which fit into sockets
IN groove on the second Joint
With this strong handy tool it is
able to catch and hold its prey. The
abdominal feet carry the gills. The
beautiful antennal scales are oblong
and are fringed with hair.
The caudal appendages are we'll

she could not think or lift one foot

herself to such point of exhaustion
that when she went to bed her mind
would drift into immediate slumber,

Jimmy on the Spot.
She walked blindly down the
street, her feet knowing the way
from years of habit. At the corner,
just as she stepped off the side
walk, a car came around from the
other street. There was a screech-
ing of brakes as it came to a slid
ing halt.

and ran to him as he stepped out
of the car. "Oh, Jimmy!" she re-

"Why didn't she get the divorce like
she said? Why didn't she, jimmy"
That's Susan's way of doing
things. I was just coming down
the stairs when she came in at the
front door. She still had her key"
He sucked in his breath as if 1t
were pain to breathe. "She was
gay and all smiles as she stood there
with me staring blankly at her.
Then very calmly she. announced
the divorce was off-that she was
back home to take up things where
she left of when she went to Reno"
He trembled like he had a chill and
Jane frightened her hands more Sc
curely about his right arm. II guess
I exploded then. Anyway, there was

He paused to take a deep breath.
Strange didn't wonder how she
knew there was somebody else. I
guess I was too angry to think
clearly He broke off abruptly
and Jane could feel the muscles of
his arm tighten beside her.
He pulled to the side of the de-
serted country road and took her
into his arms, and as he spoke his
voice was vibrant with passion.
Il can't live without you, janet"
he said. II can't. 1t isn't human
to ask me to. You mean every
thing-my very life now" His lips
found hers and, for moment, time
ceased to exist and all nature
seemed to whisper in quieter tones
SO as not to disturb them.

at last, Il have loved you all
my life and now I can't give you up

Susan SWears she will not free

sobbed. But she can't do this to

But she has!" said Jane and
wondered at the sudden calmness

night and she will do everything

end of our plans, Jimmy"
My darling" he said softly, but
with infinite feeling in his tones
and gathered her more closely in
his arms. He kissed each little spot
on her face and then her lips.
Silent on Return.
The night about them whispered
on, soothing their desperation as
they talked and tried to reason out
the future before them, which would
mean separation unless Susan could
be brought around to going on with
her divorce. Yet, there appeared to
be no way in which to force Susan

CHAPTER III.

Alone, Jane clenched her hands,
digging the nails into the flesh of her
soft palms without even feeling the
pain. She paced the floor, trying to
keep back angry tears, but the
struggle was useless and at last she
fell on the divan and Sobbed, aband-
doning ali effort to control her emo
tons. She had told Susan the truth
she would never have entered jim
my's life if Susan shad not thrown
him over; her love for him would
have remained a secret locked deep
within her heart. But now that
he had declared his love for her
she knew she could never willingly
give him back to Susan.
How long she lay there, her body
racked with treat, tearing sobs and
her tears drenching the spot where
she rested her blond head. she
didn't know. But SUDDENLY she was
conscious of her aunt's soft laugh
on the front porch as she fitted the
key into the lock, and of other
voices mingling in Dazedly, Jane
got to her feet and rushed from the
room. No one must see her in this
condition and her aunt was sure to
bring some friends with her.
Jane lay on the bed in her own
room, trying to calm her emotions,
to still the jerky sobs that persisted
IN coming. From the other room
came gay voices and the moving of
chairs as the ladies prepared for
their evening game.
Asks for Jane.
"Where is Jane?' asked a voice
recognizable as that of Mrs. Merri-
weather, the widow whose son she
had heard so much about but had
never seen. He was in the Far East
and had not been home since his
mother moved to town. But the
widow was always wanting Jane to
wait and fall in love with "her
Bill but Jane usually answered her
with, Il don't want to become an

to free him unless she wished to do

to free him unless she wished to do
1t OF her own free will.
At last Jimmy said with such
utter abandonment of hope in his
voice that it chilled James entire
being: Susan is so headstrong and
beautiful that she gets what she
wants in the end. She always has
and she always will"
Yes, murmured Jane painfully.
"She will get what she wants, even
though she does not want it really.
We don't count" She forced back
the sob that rose in her throat,
threatening to choke her. Maybe
we had better 60 back home now"
The ride back was silent and
when he pulled up in front of Aunt
Beth's white cottage, Jane jumped
quickly from the car and ran up
the steps without backward
glance. They had said their good
by back there at the side of the
road before coming home and any
more words would have been the
undoing of her. Refusing to think
of tomorrow, she opened the door
and stepped inside, facing the
CHEEKY living room bravely.

peated again tremously, and burst
into a flood of tears, clinging to
him.
my darling!" he said softly and
for moment he held her tightly in
his arms. Then quickly he helped
her into the car and turned about
in the middle of the street. BY his
quick movements and the grim ex-
preston about his mouth, she knew
without asking that he had seen
Susan, too.
You know" he asked tensely
and his voice shook with pent-up
anger.
Yes" she sobbed against his
shoulder. Il saw her. She came
by the house first. Oh, why
did she have to do this to us, jim
my? Why did she have to come back
when she doesn't love you?" Her
voice broke but she struggled on.

the boys would let her stay home at
least one evening week"
Jane put on coat and hat and
went to the window. She had
never made her exit or entrance in
such a manner and it gave her a
sense of guilt now, but she was des-
perate to get aWay-to be alone
Gently, she raised the screen and
crawled out into the flower bed,
unmindful of the shrubbery and
flowers with their prickly leaves
and thorns. She was too numb with
inward grief to feel physical pain
from the outside, or care about the
run that sprang SO quickly into her
sheer silk hose where a rose stem
had caught at it.
She wanted to run, but common
sense told her to walk. Walk
that was the thing for her to do.
Walk miles until she was so tired
