“THE GATES OF SILENCE”
Ry META SI3FMTNS, Author of “Hushed Up.’’
A Stoiy of Love, Mystery and Hate, with a Thrilling Portrayal of Life Rehind Prison Rars
FIRST READ THIS:—
BETTY LUMSDEN, the charming young daughter of
SIR GEORGE LUMSDEN, promises to marry
JACK RIMMINGTON, the man with a secret and the rival in the affections of
Betty with
PAUL SAXE, a millionaire, who is favored as Betty’s suitor by the girl's father.
—Now Go On With the Play
Betty drew a deep breath.
‘You know Uncle Silas; you can un
derstand what it was to him There was
some detestable hanky-panky about the
matter I’ve never been able tn get quite
at the bottom of that. Uncle Silas
thought Toby had done something—vile—
something he was utterly incapable of
doing. He paid his debts to the last pen
ny—but he drove him out of England."
He made a sudden movement that sent
the punt rocking.
"Uncle Silas acted according to his
rights—but the other! D’you know, Bet
ty—here’s one of life’s little ironies—but
the same piece of stupendous luck which
is going to give me the right to claim you
for my wife brought within my grasp the
means to break that blackguard who
ruined Toby! It won't do the boy any
good now, but it will give me the joy of
my life.’’
He could feel that quiver that ran
• through the Slim body by his side, and
with a sudden compunction his arm
closed round her
"Betty, what a brute I have been to
blurt all this out to you! You must not
let it sadden you. It’s a miserable story,
but it belongs to the old far-off. unhappy
things of the past, and the future be
longs to us. He would have hated that
any shadow should fall across our path on
this day of days"
"But the shadows have fallen across
it,” the girl said, almost passionately.
"Jack. I'm afraid. I know it sounds
childish—l'm afraid first of —of this secret
between us And now poor Toby -it
almost seems as though—as though'
Her voice broke and her eyes were
clouded with tears. Rimmington's face
pressed close against her own, his lips
moved, whispering all the old words of
love and assurance that lovers have used
since the beginning of time. She was a
little daughter of Eve to be jealous of
his secret. Their love for each other did
not make their love for the dead any
less.
His words, his physical nearness,
soothed her, and she nestled against him,
but it seemed to them both, for all their
bravery, that a shadow had fallen be
tween them —the shadow of a discredited
man tying dead in. that land of tragedy
thousands of miles across the sea
The Resurrection of the Dead.
And this sense of shadow remained
with the girl when, their parting over,
she went slowly up the path from the
river Even the echo of Mimington's
*, laughing farewell, the touch of his last
kiss still burning on her lips, did not
serve to dispel it.
Poor Toby! She was dreadfully sorry;
they had been great friends, and the
tragedy of his ruined life had touched
her intimately Yet not even that sad
ness should have marred the exquisite
joy of this hour, that had given the crown
of life into her hands.
She drew herself together with a little
shiver. It was because Jack was
away that she felt like this It was hate
■ Tul"'that he had to go, and the secret
was hateful, too: not because it tantalized
her curiosity, but because it seemed to
raise a barrier between them
“I hate secrets,” she said, vindictively.
'Tin you? Most women I know love
them!'
She raised her eyes with a sudden
stat, to meet the amused glance of a
man sauntering down the rath to meet
hei . a \ i' elegant apparition for these
• sun Perked woods on the upper reaches
of lit rr •’■. this slim figure clad in im
mamilate grm that had something sub
tly ..n-English in its cut.
"What a fright you gave me, Mr.
f-a.'"!" Hetty said She flushed with vex
ation that he should have overheard her
words. She was never entirely at her
ease with Paul Saxe For all his quiet,
smooth ways, he filled her with a sense
that war hardly to be called dread, but
W'as closely akin tn it; a suggestion of
some fierce force caged behind that suave
exterior, like a savage animal behind iron

Saxe laugHted. showing his white and
beautiful even teeth. Beautiful was an
adjective that seemed to rise natural!}
in connection with Mr. Saxe. He was so
extraordinarily good-looking—too good
looking; his finely cut face was beautiful—
there is no other word to apply—and his
pale olive skin was as smooth as a wo

died out of his voice, leaving it level and

Why Not Join the Honorable Order
of Proverb Picture Puzzle Solvers?
Think of the Many Prizes
for the Correct Solutions. Many*
Are Working for the Prizes; Why'
Not You?
You can get all back numbers at any time, also the Proverb Guide to help l
you.
The entrance of new contestants and heightened enthusiasm on the part of'
the earlier starters marks every passing day in the Georgian’s Great Proverb
Contest.
The evidences of the unparalleled popularity of the competition are found
in many quarters. In the first place, there is always a run on the back num
bers of the puzzle contest, full orders to date as well as separate orders are ,
corning in all the time, showing that many persons are entering the contest ally
the time.
Also, the Proverb Books are still in great demand. Every
should by all means have one of these books. Not only are they a great help /
in this contest, but will be found very* interesting to young as well as the older?
people to keep up with the old proverbs. I
This is an educational contest
as well as a proverb contest, and
3011 will make nn mistake by en
tering. Not only will you win one
of the prizes, but you will find that
you are learning every day things
that you would not know had you
never entereel this contest. We do
not care so much for you to take
our word, but we had rather you
would enter the contest and see for
yourself. Nothing teaches like ex
perience.
It has been decided that the
Proverb Book, published by The
Georgian for the Proverb Contest,
should be kept on sale throughout
the Proverb Contest, in order that
the contestants may be furnished
with one of them. You will find
that sooner or later in this contest
the little book is necessary. This
provision has been broadened,
owing to the groat demand, and
now these books may be obtained
at the Contest Department of The
Georgian. 20 East Alabama street,
upon receipt of 30c by mail or 25c
at this office.
The back numbers of the contest
are distributed at the regular rate
of The Daily Georgian—2c per
copy. A complete set of the puzzle
pictures that have been published
thus far in the contest will be
mailed to any one, anywhere,
promptly, upon receipt of the or
der for same.
Such a set will place the contest
ant right in line with those that
have been working since the first
picture was published. It will
make absolutely no difference in
the awarding of the prizes whether
a contestant entered early or late:
in fact, the judges will not know
whether the contestant entered
early or late, as the answered puz
zle pictures are not to be turned in
to this office until the last picture
has been published.
All you have to do is to read the
conditions of the contest and you
are right in line for one of the big
prizes. Do not delay any longer.
Join the contest and be with the
crowd. We will be glad to help
you. Just write, and we will be
glad to explain.
