"Oh, if you put-it like that, I can't refuse!" A sob choked Kay. "How kind you are, how you under- stand! Yes, 1'11 accept. I must-not only for myself~for Kit's sake."

"Yes, for KlUs sake." Zenda Russell repeated the words slcqrly as though they tasted sweet. She turned away and stared at the Bray street beyond the window, to hide the triusrtph in her eyes. With Kay in Egypt, the way would be clear for her own plans. "They were swarming already in her brain. fierce and thick as bees. Even if the worst came to the worst, if Sydney Lovelace did not turn out to be Rafe Hellyar—

She swung briskly.

"We must make all arrangements at once." she said. “There's an air liner starting this afternoon."

"I don't kiid?i'-—I think he'd have yranted to go liimsclf. But that wouldn't do. I couldn't bear it."

Kay spoke with sudden vehem- ence. her whole being filled with passionate fear for Kit's safety. She remembered only too well Rafe Hellyars mind, murderous temper, and Kit was hot - temper- ed too in a different way, 1f the two men met, with this between than, anything might happen! But they mustn't — she would give her life to prevent such a met-ling.

No. Zcndn was right-ii was best slie should go without seeing Kit. I-Ie might insist on coming. she sprang up, more eager now than tiig other girl, allowed herself to he rushed down to the car, hurried from shop to shop, while Zenda bought with rapid discrimination; feeling a curious satisfaclton in extra gifts upon Kay, a fur-lined coat, an air-travellin8-case, chocol- ates, magazines. It. was as though she subconsciously vindicated her- self by such generosity almost made herself believe that she was acting unselfishly, genuinely wish- ing to help.

They reached the airport just in tyne for Kay to board the sky- liner, with only ‘a bare few mom- ents for good-byes.

“I can't thank you for all YOU'VE done!" Kay held the elder girl's hands, tried to blink the tears from her eyes.

"Don't tiry. You must get on board now. Good-bye!"

The roar of the great engines drowned all other sounds. Zenda stood for a moment more, waving, the smile still fixed on her face. before hurrying back to her cair and giving the chauffeur orders to re- turn to the City as soon as pos- sible. She must keep her promise to Kay, she told herself. leaning back, small and insignificant, in tho corner of the vast grey car sha must see Kit Carson before h; loft the office.

"She Wanted To Go"

"I wish to goodness you hadn't helped her then! Sorry to seem ungrateful, Miss Russell, but it's pretty awful to think of Kay rushing off to Calm like this, with no one to stand by her."

"She was determined to go, so I tried to make the going as easy as I could." Zenda said. "And I do think it's best for both of you to make certain quickly."

Kit only answered with an im- patient movement.

Sitting in the big desk chair, she watched him striding up and down the office, his face set and grwn, his eyes miserable and angry. I-Ier

(Science Service News)

1n recent years, brown rot has too frequently been the "ome- thing added" when a buyer has taken home a, basket of peaches. It may be wondercd why some baskets have been much worse than others, or why even green peaches sometimes rot before they ripen. An explanation ls given by R. S. Willison, Dominion Laboratory of Plant Pathology, St. Catl-ierines, Ont.

Brown rot, which is a fungus disease of all stone fruits. usually gets its start in the spring from mushroom-like growths prising from bits of rotten fruit which have spent. the winter partly burl- ed in the ground. Dust-like spores from these growths attack some of the blossoms, especially i1 blossom- tirno is wet. In turn, the blighted blossoms become sources of in- fection lying in wait for the fruits, which become subject to rot when they ripen. The brown rot fungus can grow rapidly and is very ppllfic of spores nr "seeds." whlch'spread the disease; For this reason it frequently happens that fruit which is perfect- ly sound when packed, rots badly in the t-wvo or tlirce days required for its transportation and sale. Outbreaks of brown rot commonly occur when the weather during harvest is warm and dam-p.

Obviously the amount of rot can be reduced to a minimum if the sources of infection are clean- ed up and if the blosscms and fruits are protected by a coating of an antiseptic. As sulphur is used for this purpose, sprayed peaches are not poisonous to human beings. The consumer would be well-advised then to de- m-iihd peaches from properly sprayed orchards,

It is also well to bear in mind that peaches are a highly perish- able product and that the best or them will not keep in the fresh state for more than a week or ten days. In seasons when brown mi, is prevalent, or likely to be, it is i! sood practice to remove the Beaches from the basket and to SPPPBd them out on a flat surface “l l‘ ¢°°l dry place.
