Professor Bur¬ ton held a chair In philosophy, hut it was with living things that his leis¬ ure was occupied. Mrs. Burton and Mrs. Hanby were cousins. “No." said the professor, “I’ve long ago given up the eoleoptera In favor of something more fascinating. f started by way of the reptiles, and came logically to the birds." •‘Logically?” said Hanby. “1 don’t see t hat, but then I’m Ignorant in these matters, if you’re Interested in birds, you've come to the right spot, Tom I’ve got ubout the best bird sanctu¬ ary In the state.” On his way to it Hanby poured into Professor Burton’s ears some of the wisdom that had come to him over the wire from the unknown mil¬ lionaire ornithologist. Hanby’s mem ory was good, and he forgot nothing. “You flatter me,” said the other, when he finished. “You have quoted almost verbatim from my article pub¬ lished In the May number of Popular Natural History.” "So that’s where he got it from!” Hanby commented, n trifle ruffled. “I thought the old faker was giving me something from Ills own published dope." Hanby related the Incident Pro¬ fessor Burton shook his head. “You must have made a mistake in tlie name. Remember, till, this is my pet hobby, and I know every writ¬ er on our birds. I’m president of my State Ornithological association, and corresponding member of a score ot others. I’m in touch with every ornithologist in this country, but I have never heard of your million¬ aire. Me is neither a contributor to the literature of the subject nor a donor of funds for bird conservation. Some of your friends have been play¬ ing a Joke on you.” Half an hour later the professor had changed his clothes to khaki and puttees. He was armed with sketch books, notebooks, and a costly cam era. He declined any aid. He even resented It.. Every now and then It could he seen that he despised the amateur ornithologist. His luncheon had been put up for him, and he promised to be In time to dress for dinner. He was glad, ns he fought Ills way along, that he was armed with leath er gauntlets and stout clothes. Na ture had placed about this little sanctuary a seemingly Impenetrable barrier. He had begun to despair of reach ing the distant mound when he saw that this solid hedge came to an end. He stepped from ft to a path worn by the foot of man—a path three feet across, bearing the Impress of recent treading. Professor Burton set out to follow the path to its end. Presently It brought him to a stream, sunk at least ten feet below the surrounding ground, it was tills stream, he sup¬ posed. which had been diverted In order that the twenty-acre take half a mile away might be fed. He resumed his silent walk along the path. The acrid smell of a cigar smote Ills nose. He knew the noisome long and narrow cigars which only native Indians enjoy. Then the odor was wafted from him, and he found his path dropping toward the stream level. The professor stopped. He had sud¬ denly encountered a stranger. It would be ditiiculr to say which of the two seemed the more aiuazecl The professor looked upon a small but well-proportioned. man dressed wltb conservative elegance. The stranger’s face was florid, and his mild blue eyes were accentuated Id size by reason of strong lenses. Mr. Appleton, for tils part, thought he had run across an inquiring scout master laden with ail the impedimen ta that his position demanded. Bur¬ ton was tall and slight, and suggest¬ ed erudition. “How did you get here.” Mr. Apple ton began, "and by whose leave have you trespassed thus?” “1 am kin by marriage to Mr. Han Dy,” said the professor. “He gave me permission. Your status, sir, is not so clear." ‘‘In order to make my position clear." he said frankly, "I must term myself a sanitation expert. Mr. Hanby has heard that former ten¬ ants of the Gray house have suffered from sewer-gas poisoning. He does not wish to alarm his family and vis¬ itors. I am, therefore, making a sort of secret investigation. Much water settles here, as the luxuriant foliaae shown.

You cannot possibly Judge from here.” Professor Burton followed the oth¬ er along a winding pathway, until ne was In the thicket’s very center When his guide paused on the edge of an opening, the professor ex claimed upon the oddity of a lake filled in, as he bad supposed, being open Instead. “It was only partially filled in,” Mr. Appleton told him. "When I took charge of the work, 1 had my own views—very Interesting views, too.’ he added, chuckling. “Oh, dear ine, yes! They amuse me even now. You can settle a moot point for me’ He looked over the edge of the open¬ ing, gazing intently at some low bushes whose roots were in the moist earth. “What is that?" Appleton asked. “Look at If and tell me.” Professor Burton moved toward the edge and peered down. ‘‘Is this one of the things that amuse you?” he demanded. “Yes,” said Mr. Appleton, smiling. With that he gave the other a push The professor, with waving arms, sought to recover his balance, hut fulled. He went up to his knees In ttjud. His precious camera had part ed company from him, The spectacle of the amiable gentleman with the florid face, who smiled down at him angered him. He shook a muddy fist. “You shall pay for this outrage 1’ he shouted. "Perhaps.” said Appleton cryptical ly, “but not Just yet.” Mr. Appleton gave another of his excellent owl Imitations. In a few moments Luigi Bartoll Joined him. “In order that he might not es cape,” Appleton explained, “i bad to push him down there. He enjoyed "You Shall Pay for This Outrage!” He Shouted. It less than t. Your task. Luigi. Is to get him out nnd put him with the man who catna first” «*«***. Adolf Smucker had proved a tract¬ able prisoner, fn reality he lacked the courage to do anything that might bring him punishment He realized that he was the prisoner of three men who had powers of life and death over him. Of Appleton he saw almost nothing. James Delaney, the second In com¬ mand. knew Smucker’s sort, nnd despised him. Luigi was his Jailer. He enjoyed incendiary talk. The day Could not come too quickly which would permit of looting, unattended with death penalties. By this time Smucker was so much the prey of delusions that he had al¬ most forgotten his home and family He brooded upon the chaotic dav when, by the alchemy of strange events, he should be high among those whose mission It was to destroy Luigi, who cringed to capital in the guise of Appleton, would be bd early victim. Adolf Smucker looked np, that afternoon, to find his cell invaded by a stranger—not such a man as the previous young capitalist In evening dress, but a worker clad In muddy khaki, stained and torn. Professor Burton wondered at the heartiness of his welcome. After ne had been an hour iu Smucker’s com¬ pany, he spoke incisively. "Your mania,” he said, “Is termed dementia praeeox.

OCHJO^l-O^KKKKHKHKKHJOiWHKHKKWWtKHKHJOCKHKHKHKKH^OOOOOOOOO Wedding “Gifts” Once Held Legal Obligation By a wedding custom common in the British isles until the early part of the Nineteenth century, the couple sent our invitations in which pres¬ ents were solicited from those who accepted the bidding. More strange, these solicited gifts were regarded in the light of debts to be paid back by the couple. On the eve of the wed¬ ding the groom received at his house presents of money, cheese, butter and cattle from bis friends, and the bride received similar gifts at her house front her friends. An account of each gift and the giver was kept in writing by the clerk of the wedding and the presents then became debts, which in some cases were transferable or as¬ signable to other persons. In other words these wedding gift-debts were repayable upon demand at aDy time, and upon refusal, recoverable at law. it means that your Intellect la do¬ able to assimilate the Ideas you crowd Into It. Be kind enough to leave me in silence. 1 find such twad¬ dle as yours extremely tedious ” infuriated at this, Smucker at¬ tacked the professor. He was res¬ cued by Luigi. The professor was bigger, stronger, and In a rather evil temper. Luigi dragged him to an other small stone room and shut the door. “What the devil?” said Leslie Bar¬ ron, rudely awakened. “I am not the devil," snapped the professor, “but I feel like him. I have been brutally beaten. A Caliban from southern Italy has promised to twist my head from by neck. 1 am in no mood for the ordinary social amenities.” “Another nut 1” sighed Leslie. “Tell me. If you’ve any decency left, where¬ abouts 1 am.” “You are in what my cousin Hil¬ ton Hanby terms a bird sanctuary. You, I take It, are one of the birds. C presume that I am another." “i was blackjacked by that Infernal Appleton. I had an Idea that I’d been put in an automobile and taken miles away." Leslie recounted the misadventures he had suffered. "Never mind!” said the other. “You will be rescued when they get me out.” "Cheery little optimist, aren’t you?” Leslie retorted. “That man Apple ton is the devil. He’ll arrange it so that you won’t be looked for.” •Tnqjossible!” said the professor. Leslie Barron was right. Appleton, who had a skill with the pen that might have earned him a great name j among forgers, was at that very mo rnent looking at Professor Burton's notes and forging a letter. He called to mind the professor’s way of speak¬ ing. This is what Mrs. Burton read: Have sustained Injury to corner ot right eye through a thorn spike. In RdviBable to trust to local physician.

Oh, why was l out?” “You couldn't have done anything If you had been here,” her cousin said, comforting her. “We shall have a telephone call before long.” But nothing was heard from Pro¬ fessor Burton. CHAPTER X j At one o’clock In the morning Bill Pelham heard a rap on his door. HR ton Hanby entered. Behind him was ‘ Junior. They were both dressed as If for hiking. "Am I asleep at the switch?" Bill cried, rubbing his eyes. “What is it?” : ‘‘Florence Burton is going to see the j Pine Plains police tomorrow,” Hanby j answered. “I can’t blame her. You know what that means. Every move ment of Tom’s will be traced. I sup- ■ pose I shall have to tell everything 1 know, from Miss Selenos down to this last disappearance. Dina says she thinks Tom has >een murdered.’’ J “You don’t mean to say you’ve got some explanation?” inquired Pelham, with Incredulity in his voice. “1 mean Just thaL If you’ll get up and put some such kit as this on, i’ll tell you.” “Shoot!” Pelham urged. Til be ready in three minutes.” “The last i saw of Tom Burton was when he walked toward that bird sunctuary-those acres that I've , guarded so carefully. 1 don t deny he might have run a spike in his eye. it uiay be that he’s in a nursing home. and we shall have a wire from him in the morning. I’ve been thinking about that sanctuary a whole lot. it doesn't owe its conservation to any idea of mine. I should never have thought of it hut for that talk over ! the telephone with a man who delib erately slurred his name so that i shouldn't get it straight. Another j j thing—this man pretended to be « writer on bird subjects, and yet he quoted iu exteuso from an article that Tom Burton wrote. Tbe man was a liar, but tie gained his end. I did not have the thicket removed. He evidently wanted it kept as it was, and 1 obediently fell Into the trap.” Hanby’s manner was Impressive. “Bill, there’s something wrong about that bird sanctuary!” ‘T believe you’re right,” agreed Pelham, much impressed. “Who could have done it?” “Dad thinks,” Junior broke in, “that we ought to see what that bird sanctuary really contains.” He took an automatic pistol from bis pocket, and handed it to Pelham. “Dad and I have one each.” (TO BE CONTINUED.! It was in Scotland, however, where a wedding became a real business event. At their “penny weddings” of the last century the expense of marriage was defrayed not by the couple or their friends, but hy the guests all of whom paid something —or stayed away.—Detroit News. Air’* Temperature The temperature of the air at a given place depends not only on the sunshine it is then getting but also on I*s own recent history. Wind from the south on a cloudy day may be as warm as wind from the north on a sunshiny day. This ij particularly true when, is often happens, these winds bavt come . long way. Furthermore, when It is warm, humid air feels warnMj than dry air at the same tenperatarei —Washington Star “No repairs in 22 years,” says home owner “Visitors are delighted with the noiseless operation of my doors,” says a home owner of Monongah, West Virginia. “The locks and hinges have been in active service 22 years, and during this time I haven’t spent a cent for repairs. I’ve never used anything but 3-in One OIL” Many housewives who pride them¬ selves on the spotless appearance of their homes are careless about the lubrication of hinges and locks. Try a few drops of 3-in-One Oil today and see how quickly It brings out rust, dirt and squeaks. For 3-in-One, a blend of animal, mineral and vege¬ table oils, is distinctly different from ordinary oil: it cleans and protects as well as lubricates. For 35 years 3-in-One has been recognized as tlus best oil for sew¬ ing machines, vacuum cleaners, lawn mowers, hinges and general house¬ hold lubrication. Insist on 3-in-One Oil.

Dragon Fly’s Life One of Constant Hunting The dragon fly begins life as one of nature’s most repulsive creatures, liv ing in the slime of ponds, nnd ends as one of her daintiest insect creations. About November the dragon fly eggs hatch on ponds, producing hideous grubs like grotesque spiders, of a dirty mad color, not deserving their pretty names of “nymphs.” As they grow in size they grow in ferocity, attacking water-fleas, small crustaceans, fish-fry and tadpoles, and even nymphs small¬ er than themselves. After many months of this life it leaves the wa¬ ter and takes to the air, when its life of hunting is renewed. It hunts mainly for small flies, hut will attack even butterflies, shearing off their wings. It Is useful, in that it will fill its mouth with a compact ball of a hundred mosquitoes at a time. To its dying day it remains a mighty hunter.—Providence Journal. Picture Came in Handy But Not as Work of Art Robert Henri, the New York paint er, was talking about a man who had paid ?,800,000 for an old master. “He isn’t a patron of the arts.” said Mr. Henri, “lie’s a patron of the art dealers. He buys as an investment and advertisement, and his love of pictures is on a par with the farmer’s, “The farmer, you know, said to an artist; “‘You left a fine paintin’ here last summer—paintin’ of -a cow and some trees. It come in mighty handy.’ “‘Ah, you framed it and hung it in your parlor?' said the artist. ‘“No. oh, no,’ said the farmer.
