"Do you think; that I shoul i discuss you with him?" I "Somebody must have told you. salii I no-farf 1 i Her brown eyes met his sorrowfully.

"You ought to have told me, she said. The color rushed again to his hand-some face. "I know. I was a fool. I don know why I went out with her.

I hate the woman." He really thought he did at the moment, "But you had gone off with Feathers, and it was rottenly dull alone." She interrupted very gently. "I thought vou would prefer to be left alone; you could have come had iou chosen." "I know, but oh, dash It all. there isn't any excuse for me, I know, and rou behaved like a brick just now, Marie letting her think that you ildn't care." There was an eloquent silence, ihen Marie said: "I only let her think what was the truth! I don't care at Ml! You are quite free to do as you like. We agreed that, didn't we? But I think, for your own sake, It would be better to tell me next time anything like that happens. I hate Mrs.

Heriot to think that you have a secret with her and from, me It looks bad, Chris." He gave an angry exclamation. "Secret! It was no secret! You exaggerate when you say that." "Do Well, I'm sorry." She turned to move away, but he followed. "I hope you'll forgive me?" he asked with humility new to him. Poor little Marie Celeste! The tears swam traitorously Jnto her eyes, and she bit her lip. "There isn't anything to forgive," she said.

"I think, perhaps, we have both rather exaggerated things." They walked along the sea front together, Chrto silent and morose, with a little frown between his eyes. Chris hated to feel ashamed, and after a moment he broke out again vehemently: "I should have told you myself, only Airs. Heriot did not wish It. She said that people in the hotel would talk, and that she could not face the scandal. So what could I do?" Marie looked at him in utter amazement.

Was he as ignorant of women as all this? But she did not say what was in her mind that she believed I Mrs. Herlot would welcome notoriety of any sort. "We won't talk about it any more," she said, hopelessly. "After all. you've got a perfect rifrht to choose your own friends.

Airs. Heriot is not a friend. I ploy golf with her and bridge that is all. I never make friends of women. She did not contradict him.

and they walked on a little way without speaking; then Marie said suddenly: Chris, don you think we could go home at the end of the week?" 'Go home! he echoed sharply. "Vou mean to Aunt Aladge?" "Yes; 1 think I'm rather tired of the spa." "We'll go tomorrow if you like: I shan't be sorry to leave the place my. self." Ho would have gone that morning, In order to. escape meeting Mrs. Herlot again.

He was more angry with himself than ho was with her. for It was slowly dawning upon him that he had allowed hiniHclf to be nisde a fool of, and the feeling was unpleasant. I think it will do if we s6 at the end of tho week," Marie said quietly. "I will write to Aunt Madec. so that she will be ready for us." cnris frowned.

"YI'a rtan'i 1lio b-111. definitely," he said at lasl. shall? udvir in gin a. jiiuuc tu our own somewhere." "I know, but for the nresent she would like to have us." There was a note of anxiety in Marie's voice. Just now there was nothing she dreaded more thnn the thought of living somewhere alone with Chris.

"What would you like to do today?" he asked presently. "We don't seem to have gone about much, though we've been here nearly three weeks." "I'm quite happy as I am, and It's rather hot to go sight-seeing, isn't It?" Her voice sounded weary. Chris looked at her sharply. "You're not feeling so well as you'd like me to believe," he said suspiciously. Mario frowned.

"If only ou wouldn't persist in muking me an invalid," she com-pluined. Chris was offended: "Oh, very well! It was only for yoru own good." His face changed a little. "Here comes Feathers," he added. i Copyright, r. 3.

Watts Co.) (To be continued.) Secrets or ihe Movies How is the appearance of a tiny fairy produced In a scene where the rest of the cast are shown as full-sized actors? A There are two different ways of producing this scene. The first and oldest Is to place the fairy, usually an actress of small stature or a child, far in the background of the scene so that when photographing the scene she appears smaller than the other actors because of the fact that she is a greater distance away from the camera. Another, and a space sating way, is to nave inn "lairy" perform in a space behind and a trifle to one side of the I camera. Her actions are caught by a series of mirrors and reflected Into a mirror in the scene which is skill- fully camouflaged. Both the reflection In the mirror and the remainder of! the scene are photographed at one I time.

Thus by placing a blrinuuv I cake with lighted candles on a table lit front of tho mirror the reflections are so manipulated that the fairy appears: to be dancing in the flame of the 1 candles.

Herlot the satisfaction ot her absence. She had carefully bathed the tear stains from ber eyes and powdered her face; rte had put on her prettiest frock and taken great pains with her hair. Tender-hearted and loyal as she wn Marie was tremendously proud, and she made up her mind mat, if the effort killed her, she would not aiiow Mrs. Herlot to imagine thai tne inw dent of last night had made any differ ncft or hurt her in any way. She went In to breakfast before Chris arrived, and he looked at her in blank astonishment when he saun tcred un to the table.

"Dear Airs. Lawless, how nice to see vnn nn acain! 1 do nope 11 means that you are stronger!" "1 think I'm ciuite well," Marie answered.

"And I think it's time I looked after my husband a little. Poor Chris! 1 am afraid he nas ueen very dull." She was not afraid of anything of the sort. She knew only too well that Chris had not missed her In the least, but it gave her a little throb of satis-fiiction to see the faint look of annoy, "ance that crossed Airs. Hcriot's face. Chris came into the lounge ut the moment.

Well, what's the program for today?" lie asked cheerily. It wa3 Airs. Heriot who answered hiin. "Personally. I'm too worn out to do anything but lounge about," she said.

"And yon you look awfully tired Chris." Marie raised her eyes. "Well, he had rather a nasty adventure lust night, didn't he?" she said quietly. yWhut a fortunate thing for you both that he could swim, wasn't it, Mrs. Heriot?" She spoke quite simply and naturally, and with Just the right shade of concern in her voice, but her heart wus racing ut her own daring. Chris turned scarlet to the roots of his Imir, and for a moment there was 'an embarrassed silence.

Then Airs. Heriot said with a little unccrluin luugli: "So he told you! How brave of him! 1 advised him not to, you-know. 1 thought alter your own dreadful accident it would only unnerve you again." Marie laughed. "I thought it was a most exciting adventure." she 8uid. "But it would have been horrid If you had had to stay out there all night, wouldn't it?" She rose with a little yawn, as if the sibject no longer interested her, and walked over to the open doorway which led Into the garden.

Chria stood irresolute. Mrs. Heriot lunched softly. "So you (old her, then," she said. Chris turned on his heel without answering, und followed his wife into the garden; there were some childret, playing ball In the sunshine and Alurle was standing watching them with unseeing eyes.

Answers to Previous Questions. 1. What Is the best time to fight the tent caterpillar? The winter Is a splendid season for collecting' and destroying the egg-clusters of the tent caterpillar, as they stre easily seen on bare twigs. In some localities where this pest had been troublesome, a contest has been held for school children with prizes offered for the greatest number of clusters in any single collection. As there are from 100 to 200 eggs per cluster, this style of preventive fighting Is very efficacious.

The eggs are laid in bands, arourtd twigs, in summer, and hatch the following spring. 2. Is the sea lion the same as the seal? Both the sea lion and Die fur seal belong to tho same group, called "Fin-footed" carnivorous animals. (Pin-nlpedia.) Their bodies are more or less fish shaped, but the sea Hon has long neck and holds his head up; while the fur seal has a very short neck. Sea Hons have naked, strong front flippers without ciaws.

Fur seals have weak, furred front flippers, With claws. 3. What steps should be taken to Htlract wild birds to a city park? Efforts at attracting wild birds will lie wasted unless the English sparrow Is first routed. Farmers' Bulletin No. 493 of the U.

S. Dept. of Agriculture, tells how to trap and otherwise destroy this pest. The sparrow once ousted, enrly spring feeding for both insect and seed eaters, should begin. Bird houses for bluebirds, wrens and martins should be hung early, to be weathered by spring rains, as birds dn not like the smell of new lumber .) paint, of string, horse hairs, and ioss strewn near trees and thick-ctfc, will encourage nest building.

to By HEMIY UYDM, EW YOHK Is recovering from the shock and disturbance of a heavy snowstorm. There Is something fantastic about twelve inches of snow on the streets of our great over-, grown town a town whore mechanics lhavo been pressed into tho service of comfort and convenience until the struggle for existence has resolved itself into a series of push-buttons. When the heavens open and snow descends, science and inventive skill are battled, and New York stands dumb-1 founded topsy-turvy. Nature, as has been pointed out, is wonderful, but It iis also Jealous and protesting. It Is a vu mint, in nave a mi iiu icioi ciii for the infinite, which we so often Jdcfy.

The average New Yorker knows 'nothing about the weather. When the temperature rises, he switches on an (electric fan: when 'it falls, he bellows for steam heat. Icebergs or palm I fronds appear now and then on the screen at his favorite movie, to the (accompaniment of sweet music, but otherwise he ignores the elements, perhaps It is not his fault; he Is too much occupied with life really to live. Storms have their moods as well as men. 1 was on the edge of a typhoon once, comfortably sheltered behind a class-inclosed norch of the Grand Ho tel Yokohama.

It was in spring and the morning had been an affair of tumbling white clouds and calm blue water. Small pleasure-boats drifted about the sweeping harbor, and the foyers of the hotel were full of gay farewells. The Tenyo Maru was at the quayside, and Americans in Immaculate summer garments of while were driving up in rickshaws and going aboard. We watched Ihe great ship dlsuppear over the horizon at 2 that afternoon, and settled down to bridge. There was a gale In the night, with driving gusts of rain and weird winds.

The next morning, when we looked out, the Tenyo Maru was swinging at her anchor under a glowering sky. She had run Into a typhoon. Tho cages of scarlet and yellow birds and the tanks of goldfish that had been left on her foredeck had been swept overboard. Her passengers had been thrown Into a panic. Her captain hud been well, discreet.

He put back to port and awaited a favoring barometer. The tvnhoon is nothing to fool with; It is 'dlirk, sinister, sharp and abrupt. It should be excluded from all well-managed passenger routes. Not all storms, however, are mean-spirited, although some of them will terrlfv you with their nasty complexions. When I wus young there used to be a curtain ot brown cloud with well-delined edges that came up, during the summer, from Williamsburg way.

Tho grocery-clerk, driving past on his wagon, said that It meant an earthquake. He was a Dane, with a romantic and melancholy spirit. We would cluster on our doorsteps. In a kind of fusclnated terror, waiting for something rather frightful to Iwinnen. But when tho storm broke.

It was Just thunder and lightning with heavy rain, nnd afterwards the streets were wet and cool an evening. Know Storms at Sea. When you are at sea, a snow storm Is a very murky affair. The snow does not settle; the sea remains green, and you ure aware that something Is missing, that the storm is all wrong. The ship is enveloped in a crazy mist of white, and yet tho decks glisten as If they hnd been varnished with snei-lac.

Under such conditions, a snow storm has no beauty, nor none ot Its usual atmosphere of peace. It is droll, perhaps, In a perverse fashion, but it is not really a snowstorm at all at least never for a landsman. Y'our real snowstorms the kind that cannot be dismissed with a shovel or a firehose or a caterpillar tractor are to be found in the )fi)rth. The ordinary man does not go in search of them; they simply overtake him in tho course of his work. There was, for example, a young reporter this was three or four years ago who w-pnt through a great storm.

It is always important to avoid draughts, but nothing I (Dr. Currier) have said means that you should do anything to cut off the supply of fresh air, day or night. It Is absolutely essential, whether you get It by open windows or any other way." Ho, hum.

It seems this way, boy: You'll bo sorry if you open your bedroom windows nights and you'll be sorry If you don't. You may cudgel your brains and take your choice. We are all agreed, we doctors, that fresh air Is a good thing, but we do differ some as to the proper way to puslt it along. I don't believe anybody can be more fond of health and comfort than I am.

Then he climbed into a sledge, drew a faded bcdquilt over his knees a silly hrdquilt decorated with pink flowers and was live behind a pair of dushlng white horses, across a sheet of ice which you will find on the map as the Gulf of Bothnia. Between the frozen gulf and the opposite shore was no visible line of demarcation nothing but an undisturbed blanket of snow, covering land und water alike.

I thank K. M. L. for referring lo my "Insistence" that one doesn't catch "cold" from draughts, wet feet or exposure. So many renders call that my "theory." It Is no theory, but a fact, established by long personal observation and experience.

The theory in this question Is that one ran acq'ulrn some respiratory nilmonkas a result of draughts, wet feet or exposure ami nobody has succeeded In adducing actual evidence or experimental proof to support that theory. It Is an exploded theory, elso all modern propaganda against the spread of respiratory Infections Is utter rot.
