It was the law. Yet It was no more silly than that because a half-crazy anarchist had shot an heir presumptive to one of the Balkan States In far-off Sarajevo, he, Nigel Craig, should have had four brothers killed with high explosives and should himself have lain- in a hospital for half a year. The world haa not believed any such thing possible. He could hardly believe this possible. A holly England! lie resented the situation bitterly.

So this was what his brothers had died for? That he! "Look here," he said, as he ordered the chauffeur to turn around. "The only thing we've got to bo careful of Is that no one in your employ, or in the village, has the least suspicion of what you're up to. We mustn't give "em time ft think It over.

Funny, lint it to sit here and talk like this! Planning, as they say in the movies, a I must say it's asking you to take a good deal on faith!" She touched his sleeve. "I know whom I can trust!" she said. Nigel raised her hand to his lips. For him the act was not merely chiv- alrk but a kind of sacrament. This girl was putting herself unreservedly In his hands herself, her lite, her children a grave responsibility.

Already he felt for her moif than mere sympathy. Fate, which had hitherto treated them both so ma-. llgnantly. had thrust them together in a strange way. Was Fate perhaps trying to make amends?

A faint mist rose here and there from the damp ground like fairy pipe-smoke, i "Well" said Nigel. "I suppose you had better get out here." He opened the door and put one foot upon the running-board, possessed by a curious excitement.

The thing was becoming vivid. A real adventure! i After all. she was taking a chance! He was asking a tremendous lot of her! And she looked so childlike, so frail. "I suppose I must!" she sighed.

CHICKEN In suggestions for the typical American dinner submitted under the Evening World's prize offer, chicken ran far ahead of all competitors as the favorite meat. The menus submitted were not for r.verage meals.

They were such as cook and housewife would serve to 'company, sueh as she would have served to Mr. Lloyd George, perhaps, it she had had the opportunity. Chicken, however, is not the most' usual meat dish. Americans eut far more beef and pork than chicken, which is usually reserved for the meals a little better than ordinary. Americans are, as a rule, meat eaters.

Meat every day and sometimes two or three times a day is one of the ways our higher standard of living works out. In some of the lands where meat is a rarity, fowls are used more generally than here. They cost less. Here they usually cost more and are not deemed to have the "staying qualities" of beef or pork. But when we come to compare chicken cookery here with chickens elsewhere, there is no cause for apologies.

Chicken a la Maryland is a distinct American contribution to high culinary art. The fried chicken of the Negro cooks of the south can not be surpassed by any other method of preparation. Serve with it corn fritters, and sweet potatoes in any of half a dozen styles, and who would not be content? Chicken at its best is not only typically American, but distinctively American yes, even rapturously American.

AUNT MOLLY, Dept 53 East 4th Street, St. Paul, Minn, juHssams leathers, giving splendid service Mi CM! (CeatlaeeJ) Harrowdale. who watched all her movements, derided her. So she had tried to have the law upon him, had she? Weil, two could work mat game! She had better not try to play him any trick! Five days later she had received a letter from his solici- tors statins that her children had be-oome wards in cbuneery and that any attempt on her part to take them out ot the country or Interfere who them without the permission of the lord Chancellor would be a contempt of court punishable by indefinite Imprisonment. Indignantly she had rone back to her distinguished counsel, who had with reluctance for she was still a pretty woman acknowledged that i'essrs.

Skifington. Wells 4 Company bad correctly enunciated the law. Harrowdale. it seemed, had deposited some trifling sum in chancery tor tho benefit of little Peter and little Bess when they should become of age. with tie result that although the Lord Chancellor probably had the slightest suspicion of thetr existence, tjjey were now under his legal protection and could not be removed Oom within sight of his eagle eye.

A ltttle American mouse in an English legal rat-trap! Harrowdale, swaggering, had challenged her to defy the chancery unlea her father was willing to talk' business. He did not like the idea of tits children becoming Americans, but be had no money, and well, she might writo to her father and suggest some sort of a quid pro quo. Small wonder that hew dark-brown hair had lost its lustre, that her face, nee full of charming contours, had grown peaked, and that the moth-wing bloom on her dusky cheeks had Vonished. She was virtually a prls-j oner in her own house, uaablei to free herself from a worthtess husband frankly unfaithful to his marriage tows, unable to leave England unless she left her children behind her. Small wonder that, in spite of little Peter, who was enthusiastically pushing a woolly bear on wheels along the hearth-rug.

she saw young Haw ker's figure vanish with a tinge of regret hy, as he had said, should not what was sauce for the gander be sauce for the goose as well? It might have been had not Ventnor, the butler, who, although paid by her, was a spy of her husband's. Informed her at that moment that a gentleman was calling on Lady Harrowdale and banded her the card of Captain Nigel Craig. At first she assumed that he must $ave come to ask her for a subscription to some war charity. Even so, iny caller was a relief, for, apart from young Hawker, Claudia had seen no one for a week; and she welcomed him cordially, espeeially since she noticed that he had very large and beautiful gray eyes, and made up her mind instantly that she would give him a subscription. Nigel, expecting to find a dashing American beauty, worthy sister to those two other young moderns, Diana and Sheila, was shocked at her appearance.

He knew that she was younger than Diana, yet she looked far older, and in her eyes, even when she smiled, as she was doing then, he could read tragic signs. He happened to be staying near by, he explained, and as he had had the pleasure of meeting her sister In New Tork, had taken the liberty of dropping in to see her. Claudia was delighted. Then, Ventnor having silently departed, Nigel told her why he had come and showed her her father's letter. The girl's breath quickened and the color mounted to her drab cheeks and the tears to her eyes.

"We mustn't talk here." Nigel whispered. "I've a closed car at the inn garage. We can talk in that. My chauffeur is perfectly safe. We've got to act quickly.

Can you meet me in twenty minutes, say, on the road through the woods to Denbyr "In ten," she answered. "I'll be walking on the right-hand side." She rang' for Ventnor and. when he came, said with a real thrill at playing a part: -I'm sorry. Captain Craig, that I can't afford to give you a subscription. I'm sure it's a very noble work." rt They shook hands punctiliously and Ventnor showed the visitor out Five minutes later Claudia, her knit- Don-l Permit That Lingering Cough to Injure Yonr Health Get free of a stubborn, body-weakening- cough as quickly as you can.

From his second' story window young Hawker watched her through a spy-glass until she turned Into tho Denby road.

Then he reached for a cigarette. "She can't stand It forever," he muttered. "She'll cave In sooner or Utter!" Claudia walked slowly through the woods and soon heard behind her the muffled cough of a Klaxon. A limousine pnssed her, stopped, and Nigel leaped out. "Much better!" he declared as together they took their seats inside.

Now we can talk all we want Do you mind If I smoke? Have a This E- riiilllps Oppenhelm sort of thing does seem rather silly! All right. NisbeU go ahead slowly until I stop you. Well, here we are! I suppose you thought you had been quite forgotten!" In the broad light that fell through the plate-glass windows of the car Claudia marveled at the sweetness of his smile- and tho play of color under his brown skin a complexion that any woman might have envied. Could this girlish-looking boy have slept in the slime of Ypres and Mennin this young Lochlnvar who had come out of the west to rescue her? Ho had been in London a month, he said, laying his plans, consulting her lawyers, and getting a line on Harrowdale. The solicitors had funked it had absolutely refused to help him.

You couldn't blame them much, considering that they were right under the Lord Chancellor's paw and might be held responsible it their connection with the matter ever leaked out. So he had had to make all the arrangements himself. Rather good fun! He bad had a man watching her husband and knew everything he did. Harrowdale would be in London until the following Sunday. This was Tuesday.

There was an American vessel a three-masted auxiliary i schooner lying in the Solent waiting to take her to America. Let her pack in valises what things she needed for herself and her children for the voyage, and give out to the servants that she was tired of being left all alone by herself down in the country, and that she was going up to town to stay for a while at a'hotel. She must also pock up and send up to London by goods-train enough trunks to give verisimilitude to her statement. Everything was prepared, and a launch would be waiting in an inlet to take them to the schooner, which once they were aboard would weigh anchor and carry them back to her own country, where the laws were so much better adapted to accomplish Justice. Claudia was ecstatic at first.

Then her. smile faded. Bess was less than a year old! If it should be rough the exposure in the launch! Nigel reassured her. They would pick a fair day. Really there was nothing to fear.

If they did not act quickly Harrowdale might do something which would make any such attempted escape abortive take the children off somewhere with him. for example. It was the best opportunity they were ever likely to have. Claudia endeavored to suppress her fears. She ought, if possible.

Nigel said, to take a female sen-ant to ielp her with the children. Had she a single maid out of the lot whom she could trust? Claudia assured him that luckily there was one whose loyalty could not be questioned old Spcdding, the nurse who had been with Petef since his birth. Ventnor might be a Judas so might be one or more of the others, but faithful Sped-ding she could absolutely count on. Good! Now, to go on with the plan Lady Harrowdale should take the afternoon train for London with her children, having bought through tickets in order to avert suspicion. At Bashingstoke.

however, they should all get out. He would be waiting for them there in the car and motor them back to the coast, to the hamlet near Christ Church where the launch would be waiting. By midnight they would be outside the three-mile limit and tho Lord Chancellor could go hang! He outlined the plan to her in a slightly whimsical way, as if the whole business were rather melodramatic and absurd even if for some preposterous reason necessary. Indeed, he found it hard to believe, as they sat there so comfortably in the cushioned car chatting through the smoke of their cigarettes, that he wasn't talking balderdash. Was it possible in this the twentieth century, when fifteen million men had Just died for freedom, that an Englishman who was brazenly unfaithful to his wife made no bones about it and did nothing to support her or her children, could nevertheless hold them all prisoners under a legal fiction? Could he arbitrarily refuse to allow the woman whom he had deceived and with whom he no longer wished to live to take the children, whom he would not maintain, and re turn to her family? Was it conceivable that down In this quiet countryside, if she took a single step to exert her natural ma ternal rights over her offspring, some bewigged functionary, sitting in smoky chambers before a greea baize covered desk in London, would issue a thing called a writ of attachment.

and hand it to a clerk, who would deliver it to a sheriff commanding him to "take into his custody the body of the said Claudia, Lady Harrowdale. and produce her" before him. the said Lord Chancellor of England, for chastisement; and that, if the said Claudia wanted to keep her beautiful young body for her orm uses and refused to go with the sheriS or whatever, the telegraph instruments would begin to click, and sleepy constables would be routed out of bed. and posses assembled, and the yeomanry called out if need be, and the coast guard notified, and the admlrality send wireless messages for destroyers all because the Claudia, out of love for her children, wished to bring them up beyond the reach of a drunken, dissolute father? If Just couldn't be! Things were not like that! It was not only mediaeval it was barbaric! A mad dream worthy of Lewis Car with a firm pressure.

This clean fuel is worthy of your careful use. It is at once the cheapest, most quickly available, and adaptable fuel which man's genius and discoveries have yet developed. But the many and various uses to which it is placed by a busy world of homes and industries make deep inroads on the available supply. The generous gas stores of Nature are not inexhaustible. Use Natural Gas intelligently.

Inspect your gas pipes frequently for possible leaks. Keep all gas burners and jets clean, unclogged with dust and dirt, and properly adjusted. Cooking stove burners should be 1 i toiyi inches below the lower surface of the cooking vessel for best results. There is a wasteful way and a proper manner of burning Natural Gas.
