"That sounds dreadfully energetic. I'm sure that someone told me
you were studying for the ministry,
under your father," Evelyn aaid.
Dale chuckled with undisguised
amusement.
"Hardly! If I ever had an Idea of
becoming a preacher, I would have
been discouraged long ago. My father's too shining an example, to
Bay way ef thinking.''
"Isn't he wonderful! There's
something so—so fascinating about
him. Everybody's quite mad over
him. Only . . . Ton know, I'm
rather to awe of him. He looks so
dignified and stern.   Ia he really?"
"Oh, no. I rased to feel that way
about him when I waa a kid,'' Date
remarked reflectively. "Of course
we haven't Been such a tot ef each
other these past yeara. Perhaps I
understand him bettor bow. He's
B mighty square shooter."
"I'm sura he Is. Have you met
many people here?"
"Almost no one. Oh, there have
been quite a few dropping in at the
house.  Bat father does toe honors."
"Then you have no friends here?"
"Only one, you might aay. I
haven't aaea her since I came."
"Really?" Evelyn's eyes widened
to sudden attention.   The drawl to

er* a friend of Lee Brady. I knew
ah* had been to college somewhere,
but X never supposed . . . Then
you've known her for a long time,"
Evelyn aaid.
"But I haven't. That's the funny
part of it. I never met her until
Mr. Brady came to terwn, commencement time. He heard father
preach Bat baccalaureate sermon
and introduced hiwisjfW, Miss Brady waa with him. That's whea I
found we had been together at the
U for two years, aad I never knew
It"
"Oh." Evelyn's red mouth curved
in a smile. "Lee is a dear. We
were to high school together and
went to the same kid parties here.
I haven't seen so much of her lately-"
"Are you children getting acquainted? I thought I'd look in."
Mrs. Marblestone rustling into the
room to stand looking la vague perplexity at the two on the settee.
"Please sit down, Mr. Farwell,"
ahe resumed. "I ean squeeze la
between the two of you—like test*.**
She suited action to the word. "Evelyn, you've been smoking. I don't
know what Doctor Farwell would
think.   What do you think?"
She turned to Dale who was trying to accommodate ,«t"tT**'f to what
was left of his former place.
"I quite approve," he assured her
gravely.
"Dear, dear. Everything's so different these days. It's a trying
thing to bring up an attractive
young daughter. You know, when
I waa a girl . . .**
For the next hour, Mrs. Marblestone dominated toe conversation,
familiarizing herself wholeheartedly
with her guest's past, present and
future.
When Doctor FarweU came downstairs with Henry Marblestone, he
found Dale stiU to hto corner, his
appearance suggesting that of a witness enduring a cross-fire of examination and hoping to remember
the salient potato of his story. Tha
minister same to hie aid by refusing s chair. Ha offered the preparation of hia evening sermon es
an excuse tor taking an early leave.
Brady, It appeared, bad some business-to discuss with his host snd
had remained to the library.
"We've been having such * nice
visit with, your son . ." Mrs.
Marblestoa* beamed. "80 sorry you
must :go. Evelyn and I were ao interested . •.-. Such a pHy your dear
wife was not spared to share your

Evelyn took up to* theme aa her
mother'a voice trailed away ta its
customary indecision.
"IStDale a good cook. Doctor Far-
weUt" tto* wanted to know. "I've
liBBBfaaadarlng if I dared drop ta
ea yea at meal time. You'd ahnoat
has* to ask me to remain, you
a-now."
"Of course." There was ah suggestion of amusement to th* minister's dark •yea.
"Then I think I will. I could help
with the dishes, at least. I'm sere
that Dale would like to have an*
help him. Wouldn't you?" Evelyn
turned to him with • smUe and a
flash of ber white teeth.
"fclu and I ar* old campaign-
era," FarweU interposed quietly.
"Just the same . . ." Mrs. Marblestone trying again.
For the first time since his arrival
to Locust Hill, the minister volunteered information regarding his
personal affairs.
"The present arrangement at the
parsonage la temporary. Our housekeeper wiU be here shortly. Aad
now I really must say good-night."
CHAPTER IV
Aside from more or less routine
duties. Constable Kerney of Locust
HUl permitted himaelf eae diversion. It was meeting the half dozen
north aad south-bound trains whose
schedules called for a atop withto
the province of his authority.
. The office of the law waa little
more than a stone's throw from the
railroad station and only pressing
business prevented the officer tram
"Watt Just s minute. You mean
you work tor the reverend?"
Thais whatever.'* The Uttle maa
grinned impudently. "I'm his hired
girL WeU. so long ... MB you to
church."
Kerney stood staring after the departing figure a* if uncertain of the
Best course to pursue. When the
totter vanished around the corner of
the station, the constable foUowed.
A moment later, he sighted hto
quarry walking briskly along Market Street to the direction of Old
White. Kerney followed at • dia-
tance calculated to disarm suspicion. It wouldn't hurt to shadow
this aew arrival.
To hi* chagrin, he saw the man
with the suitcase turn with a friendly wave of his paper parcel aa he
entered the parsonage yard. Kerney continued his stroll, watching
the next scene from toe corner of
his eye. He aaw the door opened
try Doctor FarweU. The man to
the cap dropped his parcels and extended both hands with a shrill:
"Hey, Dominie!"
There waa no mistaking the smite
of greeting on the minister's pah}
face, as his own hands went out to
clasp the stranger's,
"WeU, I vow!" Kerney ejaculated, as he turned and retraced his
steps in toe direction of his office.
Jonathan FarweU smiled  across

taking his unobtrusive stand near
the telegraph operator's observation
window a few .moments before each
train's arrival.
Public buses ead automobiles
would have furnished a more accurate index to to* town's transients, but the station offered a convenient method of keeping one'a finger on the traveling pulse.
Kerney's shrewd eyes were ever
on the alert. Nearby cities furnished him with frequent "fliers"
describing wanted criminals—
rogues' gallery likenesses, aliases
ens, act infrequently, a mention of
tempting rewards. The constable
acquired tb* knack of keeping these
unfavorable portraits in th* back
ot hi* mind. Locust HUl with its
quiet respectability might easily appeal to some fugitive aa a peaceful
haven.
This uncompromising vigilance
appeared to have met with possible
results one afternoon. Number 406,
from the North, slowed to a grinding
halt on time. The last passenger
to clamber down the steps of the
smoker waa • small man who
clutched a shabby suitcase to oa*
hand and e paper parcel in the other.
An unprepossessing figure this
stranger, looking about uncertainly
from under the cap drawn low over
hi* thin face. A Uvid welt rea
from the outer corner of his left
eye across the cheek end under the
jaw. Tbe ear on the same side
seemed to have Buffered damage
all its own.
Tho scarred face brought no response from Kerney's mental collection, but he felt amply justified
to accosting the new arrival.
"Lookta* fer somebody, buddy?"
"Maybe.   Is tola a pinch?"
"That depends," was the grim reply. "I like to know who folks are
that get off her*.  I get paid fer it."
The eyes under the cap scanned
Kerney cooUy. There wes s aUght
flicker of amusement in their gray
depths.
"Okay, flattest. I waa Just
startta' to gay a caU on my boss."
"Who*s hsf"
' "Doc   FarweU.    Know   him,   de
yon*"
-  "I know aim, aU right.  But. . ."
"Then yon might show me where
he hangs out. TraU along, if it

th* parlor at his guest who lolled
easily to the largest ef the upholstered chairs, puffing on * cigarette
and grinning delightedly. The minister's smile held a warmth that no
Locust HUl acquaintance had been
privileged to aae.
"Pink, It dees seem good to aae
yoa again!"
"No foolto'? Some nice dump."
Th* man called Flak looked about
the parlor approvingly. "The old
stuff looks Stent! familiar."
FarweU emitted one of hi* rare
laughs. He had relaxed strangely
'la this Uttle man's presence, Bitting tow to hht owe chair with hto
long black legs outstretched and
hands thrust in his trouser pockets.
The two men chatted for a time,
Pink telling of hia trip and asking
pointed questions regarding Locust
HUl and its people.
"Thought I was goin' to see it
from inside the ■ hoosegow," he
chuckled, sailing his cigarette butt

grumbled. "Here he la now. Driv-

FarweU stepped aear enough the
window to look ever the smaUer
man's shoulder.
"She is the daughter of one of my
members." Hht dark eyes contracted a trifle. M
"Then you picked • good church.
Here comes the kid."
Quick stops Bounded to tbe haU.
The parte* door was flung open and
Dale stood framed to the entrance.
"Pink Mulgrew! Gee, but I'm
dad to see you, Pink!" Dale had the
little man by the shoulders, shaking
him affectionately.
"Same here. But aot to them
trick pants. Bad enough to go to
for a sissy game without dressin'.
You look pretty fit, otherwise. And
you've been playin' with dames, I
see. I should have got here sooner
and started you trainin'."
"Dale." FarweU interposed the
word almost sharply.. "I imagine
that Pink would like to go to Ids
room. WUl you show him the way?"
The minister stood without moving after toe pair left tb* parlor.
His brows wst* drawn toto a frown
as he stared down at the rug. The
expression oa his fee* did not
change until th* silence waa broken
by a aound from the second floor.
It waa tha staccato tattoo of a
punching bag, vibrating under the
attack of professional knuckles.
Within forty-eight hours, Locust
HUl was mulling over • FarweU
problem that dimmed its predecessors completely. This aew and intriguing puzzle waa th* latest addition to the parsonage household.

"Pasta' Mister Fa-aweU!"
Pink Mulgrew thrust his head
toto the Uving room. Dal* was
there, stretched comfortably on tbe
couch reading a magazine.
"Phone, Pink?"
"Yeah. The girl friend. Want me
to dust off the clubs?"
"Never mind. I'U get it." He
rose and made his way erst to the
telephone.   "Hello," he said briefly.
"Hello," returned a cheerful
voice.    "IV* Lee Brady."
"Oh! I . . . When did yea get to
town? I sayl Are you going to be
home this afternoon? And may 1
oallt"
"If you can spare the time." Dale
thought he heard a suppressed
laugh. "Please do," Lee ***** ea
hurriedly. "I want you to meet the
nicest person in Locust HUl."
Dale waa quickened by a thriU ot
anticipation as- he strode on his way
to that afternoon appointment He
hain't quits realized how eager he
waa to aae Lee again.
The Brady home somehow looked
the way Dale had hoped. It stood
to tho center of e large lawn. A
house of drab brick topped by a
mansard roof, Its colored slates laid
to patterns.   A house to Uve in.

Moose Country Extends From Maine to
Alaska; Like Deer, Moose Sheds Antlers
King of th* deer family Is BBS
moose. A fuU grown moose weighs
as much aa a big horse, and is so
homely that bo's majestic. It is an
everlasting mystery how a moose
goes at Ugh speed through thick
brash carrying that enormous rack
at horns. The gait of a moose is
either » trot er a smooth lope
that la much faster than It looks to
be, writes Ding Darling ta tb* Washington Star.
Like all th* deer, the male moose
sheds its ahtlers aad renews them
every year.
In many respects the moose la aa
queer as he looks. Per oae thing,
its range has remained practically
unchanged since the first white man
landed, although it* members hava
beea greatly diminished to aU regions aad are no longer native to
New York end Pennsylvania. The
mooss country runs from Maine
westward, aad north to Alaska, toto
Montana Idaho, part* of Arizona,
New Mexico, Texas and into Mexico.
It ia impossible tor 1 loose to be
happy away from waver, they
most of their time, hV the
summer, feeding on mosses and
aquatic plants, In winter tb* moose
feeds on browse, and sprue* at that.
A very Interesting experiment
with moose is going on to atyrHgan
About 30 years ago noose came
from'Canada and settled on Isle
liny ale ste Lake Superior, where
therei never had beea say. before.
Ne hunting waa penwlttod and after
a tew years the moose got as plentiful that they ate ap aU the winter
feed within reach aad begaa to
starve to death by the score.
So the state of Michigan, for three
winters, haa beea trapping moose
aa th* Island aad taking them
across to the mainland and releasing
them to what looks to be perfect
moose country. About SO moose

Dog Man's Friend, but—-
No one likes to quarrel with th*
statement that the dog is man's
best friend. In fact w* all like
to believe it without question. But
neighborhood dogs that insist on
staining prized ornamental evergreens and shrubbery certainly da
put a heavy strain on friendship.
Home owners have faced this
problem sadly, angrily and Ineffectually—until recently a very
simple solution eame to Ught.
All that you do ia spray the lower
branches of your evergreen* and
shrubs with a Uttle nicotine sulphate mixed la water. It's harmless to plants—harmless to th*
dogs—and brings a tremendous
reUef to grayed tempera. You aee,
the desired result comes because
dogs de aot Uke the nicotine sulphate eder and give a wide berth
to any spot where that odor Is
