Russell began to repent his inn

Dan.

come till ia cleaned the joint up
anyway. She also seemed to have
been smelling a bottle, so she's

Russell hurried upstairs. He knew
Mrs. Gander drank, but because
she had worked for his mother he
liked to help her all he could. Dan
was in n Of his reckless moods,
of course. Goodness only knew
what he'd cooked. Or where he
had met Anne Wilson that lie
called her Anne already. What had
he been doing? Haunted by the
questions in his mind, Russell
hurried down to the living room.
Dan had dug out their mothers Old
china soup tureen and it steamed
as he carried it in triumph to the
table. Anne followed with a big
bowl of salad. She seemed to have
caught Dams infectious gayety.
In no time at all they were cat
ing the stew. Dan poured beer with
a flourish. To his surprise, Russell
found the stew very good and un-
usually favored. Annie ate heartily
and they both laughed at Dams
stories. One minute he was telling
them he'd dug some of Mr.. Thatch-
er's garden and gotten a whole dol

II was not yet dark. The western
SKY famed with the promise of an
other lovely day. The little house
backed up on the water and he had
an idea he would find Dan there He
went around on the narrow strin
or grass, which he noticed had been
moved. Dan was there and was
talking excitedly to a slim Young
girl IN a neatly tailored hlue outfit
WIN a fall of lace at her throat.
The sunset glow was on her face
ana Russell stood irresolute at
slght OF her. She seemed part of
the sunset and the broad stretch of
water with the lighthouse winking
down toward the Choptank like a
rant star. A rose glow was owe
the river and a lone robin hopping
across the lawn carried the color
in his breast.
russell stood, not knowing
whether to go forward or back.
For a moment he seemed like an
intruder on his own property. Dan
was pointing out the various points
of land and water with hooking
comment. The sound of the motors

gled with his voice. Finally he end

Yielding to impulse, Russell

Dan cried, Speak Of the devil
and bowed in his mocking way.
Just in time. Miss Wilson, may
present my brother, Russell, who
isn't at all like me?"
Russell's eyes opened a little
wider. Miss Wilson? Miss Anne

The girl gave him her hand.

Dan chortled. Hes a LAWYER.

Russell still held the slender
brown hand in his. Il went to the
inn to see you last night, but you
weren't in. I am a great friend of
Mrs. Reynolds.
He didn't know what possessed
him to express it like that, or to
link his arm with the girls as they
went toward the house. Dan dashed
in ahead of them. He told her Dan

DAMS STATEMENT that no
n could take beauty from him
came back to Russell across the
years. Dan had been in prison and
he only laughed about it. He had
come home shabby, penniless, but
he still was laughing. He still
seemed to have something nobody
could take away from him. Last
night Russell had come home and
found him asleep. He hadn't both
cred to put sheets on the bed in
his old room. He'd slept in his
clothes or the mattress with a
rough blanket for covers, his head
on the coarse ticking Of the pillow.
And Russell had stood watching
him smile in his sleep, as if he had
some inner happiness whicl. even
sleep couldn't cover
But Dan had changed. Dan had
refused to come to Weston and be
QUILTED. Dan had glanced at his
laborer's Shoes, his rough cordu-
Toys, his flannel shirt darned in
several places, and had grinned.

t. S. National
Income Now At
Al-Time High

Washington, Sept. 6.-(AP)-Na-
t1onal income reached a new high
annual rate Of Sl58,000, 600, 900 and
national production a new high an
nual rate Of $l96,O 00 ,000, 900 in the
FIRST half Of 1914. the commerce de
paitment reported today.
While reaching new heights, how
ever, expansion Of both income and
production in the first six months of
1914 was at Slackened rates, the de-
partment said, the three percent in
crease in gross national production
over the final half Of 1913 represent
ing only about one-tourth Of the aV-
eIage hali-yeurly Increase recorded
since 1871.
Attainment of peak production for
the war period was reflected IN the
new figures, the department said.
1t predicted that if military Oper-
atoms continue on both fronts thro-
ughOut 1914, national income and
production for the entire year Will
be essentially the same as the an
nual rate for the first six months.

S~lackening Of the rate OF eXpan-
sion in production, the department
said, vas paralleled closely by the
movement Of government war pur-
chaSes. The annual rate Of such gov
eminent purchases, which reached
S86, OO0, OO0, 900 in the first half OF
1914, represented as increase OF on
ly three percent over the last nah
OF l943. There We're much larger
increases in previous periods.
The tendency toward stability, me
department said, is shown also IN
the changing ratio Of war OUTLAWS 10
total production, amounting 10 -
per cent for the first alf OF 1874,
only one point above he ratlo
reached III the first half of 1913 alter
a series of swift increases.
Payments to members OF the arm
ed forces and their dependents, the
department said, were the most nm
portant single factor in raising m
come payments to individuals 10
new heights. Net income to farm op-
orators also contributed, resumlhs
though at a slackened rate, an eX-
pansion which was Interrupted IN
