UrJ(TT2" The Story of jJIJj a Great Love

A Thrilling Serial of The Warren laudaulctte purred away in the direction of tbe Leveridge Ualiery, and Crawley breathed a prayrr that Leveredge had been as good as his word and had closed the exhibition. Hardly had he left the Warrens, however, than he blundered etraight into the united arms of Mr. and Mrs. Brooke. " The Inevitable had happened. His heart stood still. In a confused blur he received an indistinct impression of Zoe's rather wild eyes and Brooke's tunned, grimly jovial face. "What luck!" exclaimed Brooke "Come along!" He linked his arm in. Crawley's. The artist tried to read what Zoe was tryinc to tell him with her wonderful eyes; but the impetu ous Brooke would not give him a chance. He nudged Crawley In tbe ribs and nearly as possible winked. "Come along, my boy," he said. "You're going to accompany me to this Leveredge Academy and show me r what do you call her Circe eh? Di s going to her dresamaker, aren't you. Di? Excellent idea, eh, Crawley? My appointment isn't till 4. and so we can have half an hour together." 'Jrawley had imagined such a com plication; clairvoyantly he had lived through this very scene. It was ex pected. Subconsciously he had prepared himself for such an emergency, but he had not reckoned on the wellnigh overwhelming sense of relief which surged through his being at the sudden realization that, up to this moment, Godfrey Brooke knew notb In. It meant hope; it meant everything that he most wanted just then hope, time, a breathing space. The realiza tlon intoxicated him with hilarious joy. He became in an instant a new man, Instinct v.Ith hope and life and energy. He glanced furtively at Mrs. Brooke. She had drawn her veil closely, a white, almost opaque, veil, which effectually bid her face; but the arti3t could see the glorious eyes gleaming with excitement and fear like live coale; could see the red lips parted in acute agitation. Could he depend upon her? If only he were certain. Rut just now a thoughtless darin hud come to him, a desperate non chalance. It was the sudden revulsion of leeling: he was drunk with relief. Brooke did not know. So far all was .veil. "Look here, Brooke," he said, and bis voice had a ring of confidence and fcolf-assurance which it had never had before during this terrible time, "you don't want to go and see that foolish picture. You'll have plenty of chances, and besides" Crawley frowned meanirmly "I wish you'd drop it." L3 rdded. beneath his breath, but not so low that Mrs. Brooke did not catch the words. They puzzled her considerably, for they suggested some thing which was f uite row to her, and that was that there was some understanding between her husband and Crawley. She, ton, realized the danger and remembered ber promise .to Crawley. He should not find her wanting. She made a valiant effort to change the topic of conversation, and Crawley itgaln marvelled at her wonderful and incomprehensible power of self-control nd her consummate acting. The woman seemed almost supernatural. She burst out into an excited conversation on a dozen subjects. Crawley had been a very disagreeable man not to have come with them to the 1621 A Comfortable and Trim Little Model. Girls diess with sleeve in either of two lengths.

Devotion and Mystery

Savoy, she told him, in playful reproof aery mean man, and a great fraud, since there was nothing in particular but promenading Bond street. She laughingly joked with her, husband on his appetite, and told Crawley what they had had for lunch and whom they had seen at the Savoy, also the music the band bad played. She described minutely and vivaciously the dress of a 'world-famed French actress who was lunching there with the Grand Duke Basil of Saxe-Hoffburg and Mr. Toney Cohen; she expatiated volubly, laughing the while, and apparently in the highest of spirits, on the stories of wild adventure and deadly peril with which the delighted traveller, her husband, had entertained her elephant stories, rhinoceros stories, snake stories, for Godfrey Brooke had the most thrilling experien- 3 to recount. The woman talked incessantly; she did not give Brooke or Crawley a chance to put in so much as a monosyllable. Crawley saw her game at once. She was talking for the sake of talking, to fill up time, and he avidly fell In with her plan. Brooke listened, smiling happily and proudly, and ever now and then he glanced at- his old friend Crawley and nodded with a proud look of proprietorship. It was. as if he said: "There, Crawley, what did 1 tell you? Isn't she pearl among women.' What wit, what life, what vivacity! And what beauty! And she is my wife my wife!" Crawley re.-id the look, the unspoken words it implied, and winced mentally. How she had fooled him! How completely unsuspecting he was! What sublime faith the man had in his wife a faith of a great, strong-souled man! Or" was it the faith of a child or a fool? Another man might have been jealous of the attentions she bestowed upon Crawley, but not so Godfrey Brooke To be jealous of Diana never for a moment entered into his mind. To be jealous of Crawley? The idea was absurd. To Be Continued. There will be a special meeting of Post C at headquarters at 8:30 sharp Saturday evening.

ORDERS ASSESSMENT AT FULL VALUATION County Assessor Matthews received notice from the state board of tax commissioners today stating that all personal property must be assessed at its true value but that because of the low valuation made on real estate, personal property will be entitled to an exemption of 25 per cent. If the property is not assessed at its true cash value the board says the exemption will not apply. The county assessor is required to make a weekly report of the new assessments to be placed on the tax duplicates.
