Cooking Stove is the Cornerstone of Every lllarriage and Upon it Depends the Suc- cess or Failure 0f Husband and Wife to be Perfectly Happy

SECOND cHAﬁ-(JE-

By HOLLOWAY HORN

“It isn't right!" they agreed.

"Looks to me as if he's come down to stay. Old Mumford can't carry on much lon er and ft looks to me as if your r. Ferguson's going to be boss here before any of us are a lot older."

“I'd wondered that," Maynard ad- mitted.

"But that doesn't explain him. If he'd come from some big firm ln London. why not say so Why hide it? William ‘Prevowe can do what he likes within reason. But why all the secrec ?"

"The queer part that old Mum- ford doesn't know any more about him than we do." Maynard put in.

"Well, mark my words," one of them said. “He's started in the Sales. He'll go from there to ano- ther department and sooner or lat- er he'll go to all of them. Then Mumford will go to his ‘well-earned retirement'—as the saying is-and we shall all be calling this chap: .5 l. . ..

"Shouldn't wonder," several of them said.

The curiosity Ferguson has caus- ed was not limited to Maynard and his pals. Uohn Rossiter - "Old" ftossiter as everyone in ’I‘revowe‘| called him-had been the fLi-nfe chief London traveller for many years. He was not often in Mossford but he happened to be there that

Friday. And, as he usually did, he

dined with Mr and Mrs. Mum- ford.

“Dc you know a chap called Fer- guson? John Fingal Ferguson?" Mumford asked his guest as they were drinking their final whisky and soda.

“Not “"1? wasn't at the London of-

ce "

"No. I'm certain he wasn't. Be- sides, you know wasn't."

"There are peo e there I don't k w and I thought he might be one of them.

“Why do you ask?"

“He's Just turned up here. Wil- liam sent him himself."

“What is he?"

"A clerk. William took up his N" ferences —or said he did. I know nothing whatever about him. A man about thirty-five or forty. Seems a very able fellow. I put him 1n the Sales Department."

"Then I hope to goodness that he is able. It's about ime you had somebody intelligent there."

Mr. Mumford smiled; he had heard Rosslter on the Sales De- partment before.

“He's a gentleman, ii man of con- slderable education and I should say he has been in a position of authority. Yet docile about him "

"There's always been something ‘docile’ about that dumed Bales Do- partment.”

ROSSITMI. APPROVES.

“Goodapeedts getting u bit past, it I know. But then so are many us. We haven't done badly, all things considered. But this chap Ferguson worries me. It's absurd that you should have a man in your office of whom you know ab- solutely nothing. It's so unlike Wil- liam. Usually he takes old col- league: like us into his confidence, Just as his father did."-

"Hleb not the nun his father

"Don't you believe it! You'll be at the office in the morning?" "Of course. What do you think I came her: for?" o! I "The aeure seeing me " "I might have n. worse reason, old friend

“Why not have a chat with him‘! You'll have a dozen grouchee w work off on that Department any- way. if I know ou."

“I have and a l" said Old Road- ter. ‘Believe rne or not, I sent an order through from Mayburyk of Reading . . . ."

‘Then you ask Mr. John ‘Fergu- son about lt." smiled Mr. Mumford, "and tell me afterwards what you think of him."

Nor was the curiosity limited to the male staff, for Mary Donovan was sitting alone in the dining rccm of her aunt's house . . ' thinking. The wireless always was on. but the wireless always was urned on in the evning in that room. Mary Donovan, however. had long customed herself not to listen if she didn't want to. Nel- ther the Dance Music, the Talk. nor the Gramoghone Records in-

terfered with er tho ta, which that evening, were of rguson. ‘There was something sad in his

face, something disillusioned. ‘men was a gentlnese in him. some subtle thing she associated with people who had suffered. Bbe had heard moot of whet Maynard had slid to Mr. Mumford about him, and her own observations had confirmed the verdict that he was a clever mun.

"Morning. What about that order from Mayburys? What's the good of m getting orders if you can't get t e stuff off to the date it's ordered?"

"I'm sorry. Mr. Roasiter. But you struck a line on which there's been a very big run."

“Don't I know it? Havent I sold hundreds of that line? Didn't I tell you and the nltwits in the stock- room to get stock up?"

“By the way, let me introduce Mr. Ferguson, Mr. Ferguson, Mr. Rosslter —our chief London travel- ler."

"Now do you do?" said Old Ros- slter. “Hope to goodness you Cell liven this department up a bit."

Maynard winked at Ferguson over Old Rosslter‘; shoulder.

"The goods were despatched to Reading esterday by passenger train with a quarterof an hour of their getting here from the fac- tory," Ferguson told him.

“You're sure?"

"Quite. We advised Messrs. May- bury that they should be delivered i -day, and exglained the delay."

“But I was t ere on Thursday!"

"Poslbly. They had the letter this mornin , of course."

“Um . . . t‘s not quite so bad as I thought it was. then."

Old Rosslter stumped info Mr. Mumfords office a few minutes later: "I've seen the mystery man!" he said "Well?"

"He's a good chap!"

"I'm very glad to hear it," said Mr. Mumford. . S0, too, was Mary Donovan. sit- ting dcmurely in front of her type- writer.

CHAPTER Ill! WEEK-END WEAKNEBS

guson found that it was easier to fit into routine of the office than to ad- {ust himself to the new life outside t. The week-ends were rather wearisorve. He had no friends, and a town like Mossford caters more for the family than the individual. As far as the office was concerned he was confident. Mr. Goodepeed had returned and taken over the control of the Sales Department. He proved to be a man open to re- ceive ideas —-and that is import- ant, even if the ideas were passed on to T-hDPOWEB that Be as Mr.

s.

But Mr. Mumford probably gues- sed whence they come.

"By the wa , Mumford. how's Ferguson gett ng on?" Mr. Trevowe asked at the end of a telephone conversation with the Mossfcrd manager.

"Very well indeed, sir."

"Good! I'm pleased. I thought he would."

This, of course, was not repeated to Fer uson, but h: knew that he was ho ding the job down. The way his colleagues treated him showed that even if their attitude retain- ed the curiosity and suspicion of the early days. Bt there were times between Saturday midday and Mon. day morning when Ferguson was consciously lonely and that is a very unsatisfactory state in any man. In London there are many distractions on which a lcnel man can fall back, many inst! utlons where he is accepted without quel- tlon. 1t ls perhap sbne of the few definite advantages life in London has over provincial llfe.

Mrs. Gaddesden. who had appar- ently taken the lonely man 6o her heart. was often rather fuasliy anxi- ous over his welfare, and there were times when he was very glad to have a chat with her. She was an intelligent woman and soon discovered t/hat Ferguso intention of telling anything about himself. Bhrwes certainly not more curious than the majority of her sex. but she could not fail to not/Ice that he had practically no correspondence of a personal char- acter.

“He doesn't have one letter a week, she told Mary Donovan. "Seems to rne that he has cut off ﬁheﬂold life as it might be with a

“He does have some?" Mary had asked '

fvery few and most of them are ‘On l-lls Majesty's Service!"

"Still, his life ls his own buaineue. Auntie, and not, ours."

"Within reason. But nobody — man or woman —can shut them- selves off from their kind. We aren't so much individuals Is mem- bers of a family."

"Anyway, he's lucky to be here with you." said Mary Donovan.

"He ht be worse off," agreed Mrs. Ga desden. “You're very in- terested in him. my dear, Aren't you "
