CINDEP-ELLA"

SYNOPSIS Ann Haskel, taciturn, independent mountaineer, rules the little village of Pine Knob, in the Ozarks, with an iron hand. Though Senesally considered hard and unending. Ann could also be extremely generous. A hard-working farmer herself. Ann disapproves of the useless life led by the wealthy vacationists at the Lodge. Among these, however, is one exception— Diane Carrol, lovely young artist, whose work means more to her than her wealth; yet Ann considers Diane’s painting a waste of time. The latter, however, greatly admires the mountain woman, who sacrificed her own happiness for her son’s future. Years before, following the death of her first husband, Ann had placed her boy. John Herbert, in the care of an old friend, Judge Shannon, so that he might be educated properly. She has not seen John Herbert since. In his place, she raised a ne’er-do-well stepson, Jeff Todd. Then, one day. John Herbert unexpectedly returns. Diane happens to be at the station when he arrives and offers the stranger a lift. They are trapped in the woods by heavy rains and forced to spend the night there. John Herbert confides in Diane that, although he studied law, his heart is in writing and he hopes his mother will not be disappointed. Thrown together as they are, a comradeship is formed such as Diane had never before experienced. Next morning, Ann comes to the rescue. John Herbert is stunned when Diane introduces the crude mountaineer as his mother. The latter, hiding her emotions, coldly says: “I 'lowed you war Herb when I first ketched sight of you.” Months later, Nance Jordan, Ann’s housekeeper, is fondly arranging John Herbert’s desk when she catches Jeff, sneaking into his room with a jug of liquor. She reminds him of Ann’s warning that her son must not learn of the still. Jnst then, John Herbert appears, and Jeff, glaring at him with hatred and envy, insinuates that it isn’t eggs that Ann supplies to the Lodge. Nance orders Jeff out. CHAPTER XVII. "I don’t aim to hurry rnyse’f none, Nance Jordan,” Jeff retorted, and, rising, jug in hand, he approached the book-comer. Nance drew back a little, but held herself in tense readiness. The backwoodsman set his jug on the table with an emphatic thud. “Have a drink?” The young man looked up. "Oh, hello. Jeff!” he said, pleasantly. Jeff’s eyes were narrow slits of evil light. His voice was charged with venom. “I said, have a drink.” John Herbert glanced at the jug, fist his pencil down, and sat back n his chair. Looking up with smiling composure into the native’s scowling face, he said, politely: “Thanks, old man, but you must excuse me.” “What air you a-meanin* by that?” demanded the other. Still smiling, John Herbert explained, “I don’t care for a drink just now, Jeff.” “What’s the matter with that licker?” “Nothing—so far as I know.” “You’re durned tootin' thar ain’t nothin’ the matter with hit. Thar ain’t no better nowhar in these hyear Ozarks." “The evidence appears to substantiate the truth of your assertions," the young man agreed, dryly. “What?” “I am willing to accept your lodgment as to the quality of your liquor.” “I’m tellin’ you hit’s good." “It certainly is potent.” “I know what’s the matter with you; you ain’t drinkin’ 'cause hit’s me what’s askin’ you.” “Oh, come now, Jeff, don’t be like that.” “Wai, that thar’s the way I be. I know what you’re a-thinkin’. Weuns ain’t good ’nough fer you an’ your kind over to the Lodge. Weuns is jest hill-billies. Ain't fitten fer sich as you-all to drink with ner live with ner work with ner nothin’ —jest hill-billies. When you aimin’ to he’p me with the hayin’?” “What makes you think I am ever going to help vou?” “My Gawd-a-mighty! You ain’t I aimin’ to keep right on doin’ nothin’. be you? Ain’t you figgerin’ on goin’ to work, ever. Ann Haskel’s son looked thoughtfully toward his books and papers on the table. Then, slowly, his troubled eyes took in the livingroom with its utter lack of any saving touch of refinement or beauty. I “I wonder—” he murmured, sadly.

“Perhaps yon are fijfht.. Jeff.” He I the open window.

I'm 11 a better man than you any way you • want to take me.” « John Herbert did not even look ? at the belligerent backwoodsman. ’ Ho seemed, indeed, to have forgotv ten that he was not alone. 4 Jeff Todd was puzzled. There • was something here which was • foreign to all his experience. In r the backwoodsman’s set, when a - gentleman assumed the tone and • manner which he was exhibiting ' toward Ann Haskel’s son it was ’ customary for the one so apr proachcd to pay strict attention. , Nance Jordan understood the eth- • ics of the occasion perfectly and . moved to a position of safety.

the least idea of what it was all ’ about. Apparently he was brooding ever something entirely apart from the business which Jeff so pointedly desired him to consider. The baffled Jeff consulted Nance with a look of bewildered inquiry. She motioned for him to cease interrupting John Herbert’s thoughts and take himself elsewhere. Sullenly Jeff sought counsel of his jug. Wiping his mouth with the back of his nand, he bent another ferocious look upon the indifferent poet. Moving as if to extend the jug toward the other, he hesitated and withdrew the half-offered courtesy. Deliberately he turned and, crossing the room, carefully placed his liquor in a place of safety. Nance spoke in a fierce whisper. "Jeff Todd, don’t you dast pick a fight with him. If you do yon’ll die, sure as ever you war borned.” “Shucks!” retorted the other in the same guarded tone. “I’ve whipped better men than he’ll ever be an’ didn’t even know I’d been a-fightin’. Look at him! He's skeered stiff right now.” “He ain't, neither, skeered. He jest ain’t a-mindin’ you, that’s all—no more’n if you war a skeeter a-buzzin’ ’round.” “I’ll I’ara him to mind ’bout me,” returned Jeff, savagely. "I’ve done quit buzzin'; now I’m a-going to bite.” He started purposefully toward the unmindful John Herbert, when a gay laugh from outside the house interrupted. The laugh was followed by the appearance of Diane Carrol’s head and shoulders in the open window not three feet from where the last of the Haskels was sitting. For reasons which she could not have explained satisfactorily even to herself, Bill Carrol’s daughter had sent another telegram to her butler, telling him that she had decided to remain some time longer in the Ozarks. "Snap out of it, Sir Poet," cried the artist, cheerfully. "You can’t afford to indulge in the dumps on a morning like this.” The effect upon the moody son of Ann Haskel was magical. Indifferent he might be to the significance of Jeff Todd’s manner, but there was no lack of interest in his face as he looked at the girl framed in

8. "Diane!” He sprang to his feet. " “Lord! but it’s good to see you.” i’ One would nave thought he i’ had not seen her for ages. Uertainn ly no one would have guessed they u had spent the evening before together in a canoe on the moonlit k river. « i. “W’hat’a the trouble?" she smiled > “Won’t your sonnet jell? Has your muse given you the gate? Take my e advice and ignore the wench. She’ll s come back if you treat her with n proper indifference.” a Jeff and Nance, at the other end d of the room, listened open-mouthed g with wonder to this strange talk. s John Herbert smiled ruefully. ”1 * have about concluded that Jeff is i. right. I should be plowing corn. - making hay, killing hogs, or chopfl ping wood. I can't write. I'm just t one of your despised ‘dabblers,’ t Diane.”

“Nonsense!” she retorted, ' brusquely. “You’ve got the molly- i grubs. Don’t I know? I get so discouraged sometimes when my stuff won’t come right that I swear I’ll never touch a brush again. But I always do. Buck up I It'll come back.” “You discouraged! You don’t know what discouraged means. How could you? You’re so competent—so sure of yourself. And look what you’ve accomplished! You have arrived. I haven’t even started.” “Aren’t you forgetting that I had to start, too? Haven’t I had to live through the dreadfully lean years of beginning? As for my little success, what does it really amount to?” He retorted, bitterly: “It amounts to your bread and butter. You are living by your work. You’re not dependent upon anyone.” “That’s not like you, John Herbert. Do you think my art means to me nothing more than bread and butter? Don’t you know that I am looking forward to the really big thing that is still so far beyond my reach?” She considered thoughtfully, and her eyes as she looked at him were serious. “I'm not so darned sure that I even know what the really big thing is. I thought I did. But lately I’m not so certain.” He made a little move toward her, but she drew back, saying, hurriedly: “Even when we know what we want we can’t always accomplish it. That picture I started over on the head of Shady Creek is a case in point. Remember I told you about it—the cathedral effect I tried for and failed to come within a mile of? I’m going to have another try this afternoon. I have a notion the afternoon light will be better. Want to eorne along? We eould console each other with our failures—be miserable together.” He looked at her doubtfully. “You are laughing at me!” John Herbert was never quite sure whether she was laughing at him or not. “I stopped on my way back from the post-office for the expresa purpose of inviting you,” she retorted. “Os course, if you don't wish to g 0 •’ -> “Os course I do wish to go— to the head of Shady Creek, or anywhere—with you.” (To Be Continued) CoDYTt«fu.

Sweetest Corn Is June Plant* j™ 4 *

An ancient legend declares that the sweetest corn is that planted in June. Whether there is any truth in the legend or not. June planted makes the fastest growth and produces high quality > crops. Unseasonable weather over vast stretches of the country has made corn planting late, both in farms and gardens, but there should j be no delay in planting sweet corn. ( ! The second or third crop ought tt> ibe going in now under ordinary ■ conditions. Don’t forget to plant , in squares instead of long rows for better filled ears. American gardeners have been accustomed to plant things and let nature take its course, trusting to the natural fertility of the soil. European gardeners use every wile and art to make the soil and the vegetable produce to its utmost. Planting corn in squares so the pollen will get the freest possible distribution and produce the fullest ears with the most kernels on the i cob is the best plan. Whichever way the wind blows poHen will t»e blown through the patch. Each silk must have it pollen to produce a kernel. Ground in June is mellow and more easily worked than earlier in the spring. Give it good deep prep- . aration and pulverize it fine for the corn patch. Spade in plenty of, 1 fertilizer. Corn is a high feeder
