After their defeat new tactics were called for.

That night as Blodwea is falling ssleep she hears Alsn's dog whimper In the sdjolning room. Then she feels eyes watching her and a presence in the room. She thinks it is Alan looking In because she Is in a strangs room. MOW GO ON WITH THE STORY "Certain amount ot bride-inspection is inevitable, I'm afraid," Alan told Elodwen. As he had guessed, there had not been a corner of the corridor, not a doorway of an anteroom, on any of the ways out of the house, round which had not lurked one or other of the trim, drilled, uniformed maids, all agog for their first glimpse of the new mistress.

As soon es she'd set foot outside, into the early autumn sunshine of the terrace, there was not one of the gardening staff, from Mackenzie himself down to the youngest weeding lad, who had not contrived to be at that moment busy on some job enabling him to secure a near view. Unmoved, his adopted flapper told Alan Wareham that maids and people always stared at new tenants; it showed they felt friendly Interest. He could only grunt "Good pleased that she was putting up suih an excellent show. Sardonic amusement grew in him as he wondered what old Mervyn would make of her, and what Aunt Ethel Up to now, the girl had, not made a gaffe. She had been and looked name for autumn crocus, and faintly pleased again that the girl was knowledgable about flowers.

Looking down at her, he asked lightly, "Sleep all right last night?" This was pure matter of form; could he not see that she was bright-eyed and fresh as a baby Just out of its bath, the young love-hater who had spent the night in that historic bed where a younger girl had met her death from love? "I am afraid I forgot to ask whether you were comfortable." "Rather! I didn't stir all night," the bride Informed him, "except for that minute when you came in."

Pulling himself together, he glanced down at his wrist-watch and added promptly, "By Jove, it's later than I thought now." Then over his shoulder he whistled to the scattered hunters; they made a track of violent agitation in the fern as they sped back, breaking cover as a yapping pack of white and light-brown dots on the khaki turf. The beautiful setter was again circling his master as swallows circle a light-house. "Listen!" A faint musical chiming was blown to them on the breeze across the park railings. "Half-past twelve by the stable clock; have to get a move on, or our guests will be in the house before us." Alan kept well out of his voice what he was remembering. That legend of the Wareham ghost! Fifteen-year-old Arabella, reported through the centuries to have stolen into the Bride's Room for a look at this newly-wed Lady Wareham or that! What would she have made of this virginal child, nestling in undisturbed slumber? Had the specter lingered in surprise, her dim figure outlined by a light that never was Must have been a dream, of course; a dream, a dream.

Fortunately this girl at his side had not seen his expression as she told it. She could not guess that for an instant he had felt something like a hand that stroked his strong brown hair up. the wrong way all over his head, and that he had shuddered, as though icy water had been poured down the length of his back. She did not know that only in the nick of time had he checked himself from exclaiming, "Child, what do you mean? I half woke once, because Treff whined in his sleep. Then I "turned round again.

But for that I never stirred either. I did not set foot in your room after I said good night." CHAPTER VIII FAMILY POINT OF VIEW "And today, I lunch at The Priory, to see for myself what sort of an importation that scamp Alan has planted on us," announced (a couple of hours earlier) Alan's widowed aunt, the dowager Lady Wareham. She was sixty; of the rather out-of-date grand dame type, with un-, shingled pewter-gray hair, a tall and erect figure that she draped always in black, and a gravely-composed face out of which could be caught the twinkle of a pair of eyes still wickedly alert, although she maintained that her personal interest in life had come to an end since the lass in the war of her husband and both sons. This she said and even believed had left hen as just a busy organizer, who sat on committees, laid foundation-stones, opened bazars, worked for Girl Guides and among Friendly Societies, and had hostessed at The Priory for her nephew, Sir Alan Wareham, when he had seemed to want it. To her amazement had she heard that this last duty was to be taken out of her hands by a new Ladv of the Manor.

"Without any sort of preparation for this shock!" as she said. "Without preliminary attentions to this debutante or that; without any report or photographs 'including Sir Alan Wareham and the Hon. Oonagh So-and-so at Henley," or "bathing off Cap d'Antibes' appearing in the Tatler! Without any attempt at letting his friends down gently, Alan had simply done it. After more than ten years at The Priory as a bachelor and the most immune brand of bachelor at that; the brand who enjoys unlimited feminine society! that graceless and much-sought-after Alan has SO HERE'S MY THOUGHT RIGHTO AND BULLETIN to BURKE CHINESE 1 CAN FLY THE BOARD 60VERNMENT IS TRYING STUFF TO THE BORDER, WHERE The BLrSCK TO GET A M.ONOPLY ON OPiOM WE MUST ACT YOUR AGEMTS WILL I ss FAST- DISPOSE OF THE SHIP '4 WE preuy, weii-Drea stranger, meeting welcome from the staff with dignified and girlish friendliness. "Why should I mind?" appeared to be her adopted device.

Seemed to mind nothing in this world, except things which would have been considered proper by well, Christopher to a real bride. To think any nint c'. those had shaken this child to her foun-, dations, threatened her equilibrium, brought her to the verge of Alan himself turned from the memory of nat Mediterranean night. Years younger she seemed in this morning's sunshine, yet plenty of real brides would have looked their part less well; even played it worse than did this, little Figurehead, cool and gay as the morning skies under which they were to go their rounds. White clouds rolled through the blue above elm and oak of the park.

Net yet had the historic English drought broken sunburnt grass was slippery beneath the feet of the couple. The Priory dogs, a flying squad of rough-haired terriers, frisked and frolicked, noisily, hunted and spread in all directions. Only Treff, Alan's personal dog, wound invisible serpentines of devotion about his master's steps. Treff, his coat gleaming In the sunshine like a ripe horse-chestnut, circled round Alan. He trailed at his heels; he plunged on ahead through the bracken, only to pause, to look back with the dog's soul in his eyes, to throw up a long gleamy head and call out in so many barks "Master I Still with me? Providencel Guide! You will not again vanish Into the Void, leaving me to loneliness? Woof.

Dispenser of bliss" or woe. Beloved Tyrant. The world's companion! You are coming?" "Get on, you lunatic," grunted Alan, and waving the dog ahead with his stick, he turned galn to the girl and suggested, "Not too niucri of a trail?" "I am accustomed to trails!" "Accustomed," as if in her old childish playgrounds, she seemed here in this Priory of Alan's, one of England's statelier homes! Widespread as heron-wings stretched to the right its tennis courts, flower gardens and swimming pool; to the left and out of sight its stables, garages, kennels and staff quarters. In some breezy upland beyond the park lay the small hangar where Alan kept his Moth. AU this might have been thought scarcely on a plane with the ten-bedroomed old country-house standing that Welsh Jungle, where one corduroyed youth raked the mossy paths, repaired gaps continually made in the stone fences by the mountain sheep, and tended the vegetable beds and the two flower borders redeemed from the encroaching moor.

Still, these and those seemed akin to Elodwen, who, for the first time in nine years, was feeling that sense of being in her own place. "Think you'll like being here?" Alan had asked, secretly amused at the girl's silent nod. Impossible to help comparing her little face (which was so expressive, but expressed nothing except pure joy of the exercise In the breezy sunshine) with the manner of fair visitors to The Priory who had accompanied him on this very same M.Q-' ARE TO SKYROADS FLYING SCHOOL ANSWER TO LAST QUESTION DEAR JOE THE RUODER CONTROLS THB MOVEMENT OF THE" PLANE ABOUT THE: VERTICAL AXIS Jl 9.
