THE STORY: Clemency Norton, !
voung, eager to travel, goes with
Syrie Amberley to an isolated but
Juxurious home in the North Af
rican desert as nursery governess
to Syrie'’s small daughter Baba.
The house belongs to Piers Am
perly, brother of Syrie’s husband
Jon, on whose generosity the mar
ried couple is obviously dependent.
Clemency Wwas told that Jon was
in ill health, but on the evening
of Syrie’s return he comes to the
nursery to visit Baba.

who was forced to watch the

closer and held her, his mouth
against hers.
hen Jon released Syrie. “Sorry
1 «n’t there to greet you when
you got back from England. Did
Diers tell you I'd been out in the
midday sun?”
e mentioned it. Are you all
right?” Syrie was smiling at him
now. “I was afraid you might be
really—ill, when you didn’t turn
up at the airport.”
“No. First headache I've had
gince you went away.”

Syrie turned to Clemency, “This
is my husband—as you will have
guessed, Miss Norton. Miss Nor
ton is Baba's new nursery gov
erness.”
“So I gathered from Piers.” He
shook hands. “Hope both my
young women behaved on the

“Beautifully,” said Clemency,
and added significantly: “But

Clemency led the way into the

closely.
He was taller than his brother,
and no one who did not know
would have suspected the tie be
tween them. Jon was fair, and
once must have been very good
looking; but now he had the ap
pearance of a man who had been
ravaged by illness. His cheeks
were sunken and there were deep
violet shadows under his eyes.
There was no doubt about his re
markably good features, but it
was a weak face—with none of his
brother’s bitterness; it also lacked

AG HILL QUEEN, KING CROWNED
Dean Harry Brown, of the University of Georgia Col
lege of Agriculture, is shown congratulating Ag Hill
Queen Nancy Dean, of Tifton, and King Billy Dabbs, of
Buena Vista. They were crowned at the 15th annual
University 4-H Carnival here.
Piers Amberley’s strength.
As they turned away, he said:
~ “She needs someone to be good
to her. Neither Syrie nor myself
are exactly successful in the role
of parents.”
It was difficult to make a com
ment on that. As they went back
into the nursery they found it
empty. Syrie had not waited for
her husband, a fact which did not
seem to surprise him. He lingered
for a few minutes asking Clem
ency if she knew this part of the
world, and managing to find out
exgctly how she came to be there.
he was somehow relieved when
he had gone. She had the feeling
that she ought to be sorry for him
but she could not rid herself of a
slight sense of something more
like distaste. He certainly had a
charm which his elder brother did
not possess, but—
Jon Amberley looked unhappy,
and he was probably quite nice.
What Clemency. did know for cer
tain was that she would have
given a good deal not to have to
go downsairs and join the Am
berley family for dinner.
* * #®
The ordeal was even worse than
she had expected.
The big, square hall was beau
tiful. The floor inlaid with black
and white mosiac; the colors of the
deep rugs strewn about it glowed
with jewel-like . brilliance — rose
and sapphire blue and the clear
green of emeralds. The porphyry
of the walls was rose color,
flecked with gold, and the pillars
which supported the galleries that
ran all round the hall were of
dull beaten silver inlaid with
lumps of rose quartz. Clemency
had often seen paintings of the in
terior of eastern houses, but none
of them had rivaled the exotic

beauty of this portion of Piers
Amberley’s. Here was no attempt
to modernize or Westernize. Great
silver lamps hung from the roof,
and carved arches covered by
silken curtains gave access to the
rooms which led off the hall.
Through the one to which Jus
tine had directed her came the
strains of a radio phonograph
playing a Strauss waltz. It was
the one incongruous touch, but
somehow it did not seem that way
— perhaps because Clemency
adored Strauss waltzes.
She lifted the curtain and went
in, dropping it behind her. For a
moment or two she paused unno
ticed on the threshold of the room,
Syrie in a dinner gown of some
soft, draping material the color of
an aqua-marine, lounged back in
a deep chair, a vivid violet cush
ion behind her red-gold hair, a
cigaret in a black onyx holder be
tween her lips.
® % &
Not far away Piers Amberley
sat, reading a magazine — very
distinguished-looking in his ortho
dox black and white. Jon was
standing by the big record player.
He looked less haggard in the
shaded golden light of the lamps,
and Clemency realized that he
was startlingly good looking.
_ This room was as Eastern as the
hall, Silver pillars again, but the
walls of lapis and silver—the up
holstery and hangings amost bar
baric in their vivid hues. The
vividness of Syrie fitted into it—
but the men in their perfectly cut
clothes struck an alien note. And
yet she felt that the picture before
her ought to have been a per
fect conversation piece — only
there was no conversation,
Each one of those three people
seemed apart—absorbed in their
own pursuits. Syrie in her
thoughts, Piers Amberley in his
reading, and Jon#n the music 1o
which he was lightly brating time
with one hand.
She stood there, feeling an em
barrassed interloper, wishing she
could make her escape. Then Jon
turned his head; and saw her. At
the same moment the record came |
to an end. For a moment Jon
Amberley stared at the girl by
the door without recognition.

lfifli_fi’—fiShrug Off Worries
Often Helps To Cure Insomnia
BY EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D.
Written for NEA Service
People who live in cities and
follow sedentary occupations are
the ones most likely to complain
of sleeping badly. Most insomnia
is caused by inability to throw off
worries and cares of the day time.
The person who starts thinking
of the office within a few minutes
of turning off the light at night is
likely to develop chronic sleep
lessness. The longer this goes on
the worse it gets.
Many people who complain of
insomnia sleep better than they
think they do. They may be wake
ful for short periods two or three
times during the night, but really
get all the sleep they nreed. Often
they make things worse by worry
ing about not sleeping. This is un
necessary, as most people can get
nearly as much rest for the bodily
functions by lying quietly and re
laxing in bed as they would if
they were actually asleep.
With worry as the principal
cause of insomnia, its manage
ment is apparent. Before going to
bed some occupation which takes
the person’s attention away from
the usual worries is desirable.
This may take the form of reading
some book to one’s self, or aloud,
preferably one which is rather
