It onristed of a few fields of maize, a ery poor attempt at vines being festooned on low poles around them, large patches of potatoes and other vege-Aablos, and a tmall orchard and fruit yardi n. Otherwise there was nothing but the goars-e, straggling grass, where a few ep and two cows were pastured, and, tiearer the shore, on every side were Pleat sandy stretches that were one Jia.c oi scarlet popples shimmering in the gentle sea breeze. On the whole, "cn with the poppies, the place had a desolate air.

The little old man was evidently very frond of it lie showed Millie every-hmg the tow -houses, the cottages that ad been built for servants, the remains an old wall and the foundations a lighthouse, the little landing-stage find (lie boathouse where the gondola war pul up the Winter.

He made her sit down near the wide-4pen window, and lay her hand on a tmall table of marble and Florentine mosaic. He did not touch her palm, but bent over and looked at it, studying it for about a couple of minutes. Ph he lookr-d up into her face with an ression almost of awe on his own.

You are in great danger now greater danger than you have ever been in in your life. It from some one or something that you know nothing about.

His tone changed. I shall come with you all the way to Friola, ho said. I think I am directed to. At any rate, I cannot let you go alone. Millie laughed.

Thats a good thing, she said. And I hope you've got plenty of money, because I haven't a farthing. And I believe you about being in danger. Can you tell me any more? 8he looked upon It as a joke. Danger had not the same meaning for her aa It might have for a person who lived among more normal I have plenty of money, the little old man said.

"You reed not be afraid about that. My father will pay you back: he Is a mTdonalre. I dont want to be repaid. It Is a privilege to do anything for you, I assure you. He bent over her hand again.

No I can see nothing more, he said. It is very confusing, you see this is partly science with me and partly a gut. Many Scotsmen are so gifted. All the Campbells have been. Have you an thing on you that you very muen prize? If so, give it to me to hold.

Millie put her hand Into her pocket and took out the little tin box sewn up In the piece of silk. It la very heavy," she said-He took it and sat silent some dls-tarre away from her. His face changed more and more, until it wore a strange, shocked air. You are in great danger, he said monotonously. And you have something to do with my family that is all I can get at.

"You look as if you were going to a funeral, Millie said, laughing. He made an effort to smile. "You are very young. he said. "I hope with all my heart that I may be of service to you.

Is this thing that I am holding of great value to you? "Rather. More than anything in the world, she answered. "What Is it, if I may ask? "I dont know. It doesnt belong to me Thats Just It. You don't know what It is.

You are taking It to give to some one. If I were you I should drop it into the sea, as we cross over to Venice. no, no! Give it me back! She held out her hand imperiously. He placed the little tin box In it. It would be wise for you to get rid of It, he repeated.

It is no good to you. Jt Is not connected with you in any way, but It will bring misfortune. His voice rose and grew insistent. My dear young lady, I implore you to throw It awaj "Nothing will induce me to, she said. You may as well shut up about it.

It ooesnt belong to me, and I've got to take it to the person it belongs to. "That is the person you would give your life for, if necessary, he little old man murmured. "Of course, I would. But what do you know about it? She was a little impressed. I see it all there.

But it is very confused. There is another influence I can't make it out. Everything that I see overshadowed by this great miracle. You are not as others. SJddenly he stopped.

His race took on a look almost of anguish. Millie slipped the little tin box back into her pocket. 'Come, the little old man said, you will think I am a very foolish old man. we walk over to the shore to see if we can see any sign of the gondola? On a clear dav it is visible nearly an hour before it pets here. The channel Is so tortuous; that is why.

CHARTER LXX How on earth did you manage it? asked Max Tage of Mai Horton as they stood together in the state suite of the Castl of Friola, on the evening following Trenchs departure in search of his daughter. "I cant for the life of me make it out. My dear Max, his friend answered, I told you to leave it to me. I knew or rather guessed who they are expecting here. The old servant was the only danger; but fortunately he did not recognize you.

I simply said I was the person they are expecting. He didnt see me except In my disguise, Page answered ruefully. Trench shut me up in a room himself, and ray food what there was of it was just pushed through the door. And now we re here, what are we going to do, Tom? Gocff Heavens, is that the idea? Maj Horton had taken small revolver out of his pocket and was examining it. "Ye are going to treat the old servant.

and anybody else who gets in our wav, as they hav treated others, Maj Horton said quietly. And we had better do it at once. My little story about having come on in advance of the luggage was rather thin. We are supposed to have come a long distance. Max-right from the center of India.

0. are we? exclaimed lage, much mystified You might give me a clew, Tom! You could have knocked me down with a feather when I saw the old man admitting you without question and bowing to the ground, and all the rest of it. Mai Horton's face lightened for a moment into a whimsical smile. Ah, Max, old boy, we are very important people indeed! be said. Pon mv soul, you treated the old chan as If he were dirt under your feet! said Page.

PERRY "Dear Joan The young man I am en gaged to Insists upon using rose per-lume on his hair, and I Just detest the odor of rose perfume on anybodys hair. I ant afraid It is going to cause us to break off our engagement. I love him dearly, too.

What would you advise? Broken Hearted." Bob Clarke read the letter over and shoved a piece of copy paper into his typewriter. In less than half a minute he hRd written a paragraph of advice to Broken Hearted and pinned it to her letter, ready for the printers. When Bob had answered more than he thought the editor would let go through he sat back In his chair and looked at the pile of unanswered ones that would have to go into the wastebasket. It seemed as if every person in love in the city wrote to "Joan for advice. There Fail been a girl on the staff who had started the column, but she had long since departed, so the work was wished on Bob.

He didnt mind It, though. It afforded him a lot of amusement. In fact. He had never known how good he was at living advice until he had conducted the Advice to the Lovelorn column. Lovers quarrels had always seemed a joke to Bob until he had had one of his own.

It was no Joke. Of course, it was more serious than any quarrel anyone had ever written him about, he thought. There didn't seem to be any way out of it. either. Cleo had positively refused to listen to reason.

It was her fault from start to finish. He had allowed her to blame him for everything In the past and he wasnt going to allow her to do it any more.

It is one thing to plant potatoes and quite another to keep the crop growing vigorously all through the season. Many amateurs are growing potitoes for the first time, and are not familiar with all the requirements necessary to insure maximum production.

If yoc are going to grow a crop at all you might as well grow a good one, especially when the difference between success and failure is measured largely by a few hours work with a spray pump and hoe. Cultivation is especially important in a dry season. It should be kept up until the tops meet sufficiently to shade the ground. Dont hoei deeply, though, especially after the plants get well started, for the tubers, develop In the three or four inches of soil nearest the surface. Shallow cultivation helps to keep the ground moist Just under the surface, and this means the development of good sized tubersL Sometimes1 potatoes produce a big crop of plants, causing; the owner to have visions of a record breaking crop, yet when the potatoes tare dug they are small and few in a hiSI.

The explanation Is likely to be found the fact that the top soil was allowed to dry out. The roots, by borrowing deepiv, can often get a plentiful supply of moisture, while the tubers, which have stems very different from the true root system, must depend upon moisture in the soil near the top of the ground. In gardens where thA soil is loose, sandy loam, hilling is to be discouraged. Better results are obtained when the ground is kept level, for the soil raised In a mound dries out more quickly. The only exception comes in a year when there is an abnormal- rainfall.

If one happens to have heavy soil, he may find it advantageous to hill up the crop, because then tht soil will be kept PEOPLE WHO USE Mrs me SAY ITS The Perfect Coffee beans, etc?

When he got into a quieter frame of mind he could see that he was just a trifle to blame. The more thought he i gave it the more he could see just where the blame lay. Cleo had been right. It was ail his fault It appeared quite a simple thing to call Cleo up and put matters on a firm basis again, but when she banged the receiver in his ear he saw that the quarrel had just begun. For a week his feelings were in too injured a state to permit him to even think of talking to Cleo again, but the lonely feeling got the best of him at length.

Tnen the idea came to him. Why not follow some of his own advice? he thought. He had his column on file for year back and he went through them to locate a case like his own. He did find one that was very much like his. The girl in the case had been just as stubborn as Cleo and had banged down a receiver just as Cleo had done.

Receivers seemed to be a popular weapon in lovers quarrels. The young man who had written the letter had signed himself Pining Away. Bob didn't feel quite as dejected as that, but he could sympathize with the young fellow just the same. He wondered hat he had seen in that letter to laugh over when it had come in He read his answer and noted each instruction. Be bold; dont let her pee that you are down-hearted; go to her home and demand admittance: show her that you mean business, and she will be sure to forgive you, he had said.

That answer didnt seem to fit hia case at all. But if Pining Away had been successful, he didnt see why he couldnt be, by carrying out the same plan. It wouldnt hurt to try, at any rate. Cleo didnt slam the door in Bobs face, but after she had snubbed his every effort to talk to her for 15 minutes she wished she had. 'Vhy won't you be reasonable, Clea? re pleaded at last-Reasonable! she exclaimed.

Have I not been reaso-ablo? It is you who are not reasonable. If you really had loved me you would be. It was the longest speech she had made, and Bob felt encouraged. But I have apologized, dear, and taken ail the blame, he said. Wont you be your old self again? Why did you allow me to come here if you -oin? to speak to me?" you take the blame ana I didn want you to come here.

If you really thought vou were to blame you wouldnt acknowledge it men never do. lou just say that because you are forgiving me. I don't want to be forgiven. I have done nothing to be forgiven for. There was an entirely new argument for Bob.

He had always been of the impression, that women were odd, but r.ow he was convinced of it. he was struck with a sudden thought. Why dont vou write to the Advice to the Lovelorn column in the paper The answer will convince us who is to blame. Joan knows all about such things. "But Joan must be a friend of yours: do ycu know who she is?" Cleo asked suddenly.

Joan is my worst enemy, he answered. My knowing who Joan is wont make any difference in the reply. I will guarantee that. You will have to help me compose the letter, Cleo said, as she secured the stationery. Together they started on the letter.

Bit by bit they told the details of their quarrel. Bob did most of the dictating and Cleo did most of the writing, changing his views of it here and there. Read it over, Bob said, when it was completed. "Doesn't it sound foolish? she asked, as she finished. It is as silly as the ones that appear in the paper.

Bob, well make idiots of ourselves if we send this in. We really didnt have anything to quarrel over. I dont think we had, either, he agreed. Lets settle it without sending this letter In. Tear It up.

I am so glad wo didnt decide to send it, she sighed, wearily. Newspaper people must have lots of fun out of letters like this one. We do, he answered seriously, but do you know, I'm never going to laugh at another of those letters. Ill answer any one of them and Ill spend more thought on them. Youll answer them! What have vou got to do with them? she demanded.

Bob had to confess. To think that you deceived me so, Cleo began, but the smile on Bobs face silenced her. Well be quarreling again in a minute, she laughed, and weve decided quarrels are foolish, havent we? (Copyright, 1818, McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) 5 Roasted and Packed by W. S.
