V e 1 Polar Cc-r Leaves Sea, Kills Foot j Reindeer MOSCOW (AP) A rare case; of a' Polar bear leaving the e and attacking beasts on land has been reported by "Dawn of the i East." The attack took place recently in the tundra of the Khatangzky region where a polar bear attacked a herd of reindeer, slaying four young deer before a hunter killed the bear. "Hunters," said a message, "know of only one such other event during their lifetime." Commercial potash deposits in the United States are believed to be adequate for several generations. I CHAPTER 23 , HILDRED was sura ' Randy would never agree to Jim mr t staying at the Lanlers. , But the amazing part was that; i this one time Randy did not dla , agree. He did not even put up an ; argument. When she got him on the phone to tell him Jimmy had ' been found she thought . it best I also to tell him right away that Jimmy was going to stay on a few days at the nig plantation. ; She waited for the explosion that she was so certain would fol low. But Randy's voice came back in its even, professional tenor. "I see. Well, that might not be a bad idea." . i "You you' mean you really think it would work ou" ; "It might." Randy's voice was utterly impersonaL She was in deeper now than ever, she reflected, as she hung up the receiver once more. "Now I do wish I could Just crawl in a corner -and have a nice quiet breakdown." she said to Mamie, still the interested spectator. "You mean the Doc was that badr "No, he was that, good. He was very agreeable, very neat. He Just stepped out of the picture, Mamie and let me carry the ball," Mamie, again, answered for her. "He's doing it because of you, too the Doc is. He may not know it yet But I still figure he'll wake up in time. He thinks you and this Lanier man have got so thick that it's better for him to leave you together." "That doesn't make any sense!" Hildred was cross now. "Sure it does!" Mamie defended her knowledge. "You'll see. Some men, like Doctor Baird, are so stubborn and blind and dumb they cut off their own noses. Jest so, this time, he don't spite his own face and your happiness." "Before Pd go to all that bother for any man. . . ." But what was the use? Mamie certainly did not CHAPTER 24 THE Countess' dramatic state ment came as a distinct sur prise to Hildred. But how was she, the little county nurse, supposed to react? What could she say, even as a friend? Lucien sat beaming at her, and his mother was smiling, so it was eviaent they did not want condolences. Lucien said. "I hadn't told her. Liz. You might have left it to me. And, as you can see, Hildred, I am not left brokenhearted. The jilted suitor, as a matter of fact, is greatly pleased." The Countess said, "I am also fileased that we have discovered, n time, that Dorothea is capable of such a thing. To marry another, when she could have had my son to do it in such a common, cruel manner. And the man is a most ordinary person they will be poor enough I am surel he is an instructor, in swimming or some such thing, , if you can imagine thatP Apparently the Countess could not; she sank back to lip her hot tea gratefully, closing her eyes a moment' ,. (lQ,Tb.U. was why she did not, see trie big wink Lucien directed at Hildred. "Liz, like every other mother, cannot conceive how any girl could prefer any man to her Freclous son. I tell her Dodo and never pretended to be in love. I am delighted she has found 'some one she cares for. And I admire her spunk in handling it the way she did!" "I exnect he is a fine physical specimen," Lucien chuckled "Dodo is rather aiven to athletics. you know. And every girl falls for brawn, rather than brain. As for the Lanier millions, I also expect Dodo and her instructor will man age without them. I have heard, haven't you,' Hildred, that people can survive on love alone? "Nonsense!" The Countess sniff . ed. elegantly. But she seemed : in better humor, no doubt because Lucien was in such high spirits. "That is a fallacy. It does not work in this modern world. . You will now wnat sne was talking about now. SHE had told Lucien Robin could call for her at flvt S 'clock. She would go out and see immy. She would tell Lucien. and his mother, that the boy could stay for awhile. What else, as Randy had said, could she do? But there would have to be some other solution. Hildred was determined as to that Jimmy was so happy that she did not have the heart to scold him, especially as Lucien insisted he already had. "I am going to let you make a little visit here," Hil dred told the boy. "But that does not mean,' Jimmy, that it is for keeps. You must understand that, dear." She felt it was best to be honest with him, if he was only a child. "But Lucien said I could stay as long as I liked!" Some of the radiance was dimmed in the enor mous big dr.vk eyes. "1 like it here. I 11!:? it much better th-n any pkee cbo. And. Miss Hil. I won't go bach to the Home." Now his fe3 were flllei will, dark trag edy. "1 will run away again I w ll kill mysrlf first!" "Do not say that!" LuciCn's voire was like a knife. The same dark tragedy was reflected in his own eyes. He knelt down to take the boy in his arms, to hold him tightly; he looked up at Hildred, standing silently apart. "You see!" his tone was reproachful, "he is very much like me alas, too much! And you must also see now that he must be allowed to re main." "I hardly think Jimmy would go that far," she returned coolly. Jimmy, you are a very naughty boy to talk that way. You should be punished as you should have been for running away. We will see how good you are," she fin ished, giving as much, no more than she felt she could. "That will determine how long you may visit here, Jimmy." Lucien got to his feet, but not before he had given the boy an other reassuring hug. "We will see, my dears, that the day will come and soon! when Dorothea will regret her wild action. She will be writing me for money and eventually she will get rid of this person." "I nope, if she writes, you will send her sufficient funds to carry on until she does get rid of her man, if she ever does, Liz. If not, I shall send her financial help, myself. If only in repayment for this freedom sne nas given me. He turned toward Hildred now, taking her cup from her as he saw she had finished. Again his look was deep into her eyes. "I am free. Hildred, he said. "You Know, I am free, now." If the Countess was aware of any hidden meaning in these words she now came to her young euest's rescue. She leaned forward to give one of Hildred's slim hands a gentle pat. sne said, i am atraia you find us too outspoken, too emotional. No doubt you are thinking we should not discuss all this before you. But you are very close to us, my sweet child, and the time may come when you will understand more fully. Mean while, Lucien. I think; we do pro ceed too rapidly. I think, we startle our little nurse ... "This is the first time I have seen you in your nurse's uni form!" she broke off. to change the subject tactfully. "It is most becoming, is it not. Lucien?" Hildred manac"- to murmifr an appropriate thanks. But she still was uncomfortable. She could not help wondering at the Countess' complete change of manner to ward herself. Lucien's mother had become more friendly than at that first meeting, but now she seemed to have taken Hildred to her bosom, as Mamie might have ex pressed it. AS soon as she gracefully could, .Hildred asked to be excused, explaining that she was anxious to get home now that she knew Jimmy was all right Her mother still was not wen. The Countess was all com miseration. "Lucien has told me about your poor mother. Some both be very good, wont w, sonny? 1 cannot understand wfr our little nurse Is ao angry wfta us. You run along now with Robin be is waiting to take you down to the barn. And you, Hildred. ara invited for tea which is waiting for us." ' ' In spite of herself Hildred had to smile, as Lucien took her ana to lead her into the house. She said, "You know, Lucien, it is not as simple as you try to make out. You should be punished, too or scolded soundly." "If you do the scolding J shaft not mind," he told her, Jiis dark eyes smiling deeply into hers. "And there is something mors that I have to tell you some thing that may make everything: far more simple than you seem to think, my dear! But come. Lis is waiting to pour she.i too, in most anxious to see you. Something more to tell her . . . how he loved to make things mys teriousshe felt she understood Lucien now and that that, really, was all the mystery there was about him, or the Laniers. Hl love of the dramatic, of playing: his different roles. j "I shall tell you during tea,"' Lucien said. "It is another sur-: prjse as big a one as Jimmy's running away! An exciting day this has been indeed!" j But it was the Countess who; told Hildred the other news. She! told it almost in Lucien's samel words. After she had greeted HU-I dred, very warmly, she said, "I j am so glad you have come. Thisi day has been almost too much fori me. First Jimmy coming to us j though that is very good. Indeed,! we are, as Lucien has told yon.i most happy to have him, to keep him as long as he can stay. And; then Dorothea to think she would send her wire and such; a wire today, too! I suppose.! Hildred, Lucien has told you thai! his cousin, who has been be- trothed to him so long, has eloped i with another man." in- "1 reH thing should and must be done about it. Of course we will excuse you, my dear. But we will want you back again very soon, shan't we. Lucien? "Hildred always dines with me on Thursday evening, Lucien said. "The anniversary of our meeting." Hildred wanted to say that It might not be ' convenient thia week, again because of her moth er. But she did not like to say just then. If, when Thursday cam her mother was not feeling we Hildred would break the dinner engagement. it was her mother, however, who insisted Hildred must not do) that. "I am perfectly all right,") she insisted. "I want you to go darling. Mrs. Archer will run ih during the evening. And how could you refuse after Lucien and his mother sent me all these lovely flowers?" For once more, the little apartment was overflowing with! a profuon of flowers. in "I suppose I'll have to go," shft said, and wondered why she, should feel that way about going when it was not the way she1 should feel at all. l" Lucien told her, upon her sf rival, that they were dining in hit rooms. "Just the two of us," Of added, his dark eyes smiling down1 into hers. "Liz has other guest and so I begged off until latertf anyway. Does that please you?" H It pleased her so much that per haps her response was mora, ardent than it should have been!, "I'm glad, Lucien. terribly glad' I'd much rather dine just with5 you." Her blue eyes smiled upi into his. M He caught her arm, pulling hat) toward him then almost asf abruptly let it go to make her Bj low, courtly bow, offering her his own arm instead. Again she was left with the lmLi pression that he had controlled his- actions and emotions delibf erately. Why was she alwayf thinking that Lucien was going to grab her, to crush her againsj him? , (To be continued) ' OH, DIANA! first Aid for fish Hooks Ill q ol 10
