THE DAILY NOVELETTE The Golden Mietat By KATE EDMONDS MAGNIFICENT wedding gift," fluttered Miss Rocket as her wrinkled white hands grasped tho quaint steel casket and bore it to her own chlntz-ihung sitting room. Tho English solicitor for theB6oth bys, of Scarrowc, looked very scornful as ho went down tho stono steps of tho stately mansion where Agatha Rocket Ilvod with her orphan niece, Sylvia. He knew the Rockets were very rich so many Americans were rich and that Andrew IJoothby'a marriage to Sylvia was purely n love-match and that the young pcoplo were to go to Canada and begin their married life on Andrew's ranch there. Ho knew all thoso things, and he guessed that Miss Agatha Rocket was a tuft hunter, and he marveled how sho had ever wheedled Andrew's sole remaining rcla- tlve, Sir Angus Boolhby, of Scarrowc, Into parting with tho family heirloom, the Golden Missal, It was n wedding gl.'t to Andrew, and his bride, but if tlioy had waited It Would have 'come to them anyway. But Agatha had wanted It to flaunt in the faces of her hundred dear friends.; It was so , old, so mys tcriouB, so precious I Alono In her siting room Agathn thought of the triumph before her all her Wcnrv vrnrs nt Hlmblnir tlin nnplnl muuer were worm tno moment when sho hflu eiudea love, lor ne enmc in sho could display the Golden Missal among Sylvia's wedding gifts. It was such n wonderful thing it was con cerned with English history an old abbot had written dark secrets on Ivory tablets and Inserted tho sheets In the pages of the ancient mass book. It had then been bound In thin leaves of gold and sealed with n great seal, and no ono knew tho contents.' savo tho old abbot, who bad been dead for cen turies. Agathn Rocket fairly quaked as sho turned the rusted little key in the lock and lifted out tho packago wrapped In gold brocade that a king had worn ; the precious relic of n patrician race was In her hands and she looked guiltily around as If sho expected Sir Angus to snatch it from her nllen hands. It was a smnll flat book, bound between covers of thin, beaten gold. The golden clasp was scaled within splotch of red wax, snd Agatha blushed as sho visuallxcd Sir Angus grim satisfaction as ho finally sealed It against her inquisitive eyes. Tho sedrets guarded, there would still bo secretn hugged closo to th hcartH of the Boothbys, even the rich aunt of Andrew's bride dared not touch. Dared not? , ..-.., Her hands shook as she hurriedly wrapped tho book and thrust it into the casket, locking it securely. Tempta tion was very ncaV the proud woman, who had always reached out and grasped nil that sho nocuod all suo wanieo. hmnMo ilrcM in other davs. and now Love eluded her, savo that of Bylvln and thero would be Sylvia's children rami) day.. Tho thought gladdened her thrilled her. ...... Thim the steel casket containing tho Ooldon Missal confronted her. There v. was n tasto of tho bitterness of failure; In the sight of it. How sho una plan niwi nhmit It ! " the ncwsnnticrs would write . articles about it: the pictorial sunnlcments would feature it; her own nirtitt-A would be there, and Svlvla' nrobably Andrew's, if that conservative young BritOn would consent, which was ,lniihfii1. Aeathn wished she could detest publlcltyas Sylvia and Andrew did I uut sno lovca it. "Here's , auntie,!' fluted Sylvia's voice, and she came, bringing Andrew. He was a tall, lean, brown young man, very much In love. He bent over and kissed Mis Rocket's cheek. "Jove!" he exclaimed. "If you haven't got tho family skeleton!" "lour uncle sent' it to you nnd Syl seal unbroken rather decent of my uncle to Intrust it to usl" "I wish we could send It back the via." she explained lamely. "It's tile Golden Mlr.sal of course you know nil shout it.'' Andrew shook his head. "Heard nbout It often, saw it onrc, but never could get interested can't, you know, in something that isn't to bo opened or read," ho said practically. Agatha gasped. "Not to be opened? Didn't your undo your -people " He laughed carelessly. "Never heard of any ono bothering with It. Thd old nbboi wrote If find then forbade any one to read what ho hod written matter of family honor to leave the proper place for it Is In the vault at the Towers, not In our farmhouse,' said Sylvia. "Right," agreed Andy. t "Come, darling, perhaps thoso detectives will let us look at the wedding gifts."

Heat is the expansive force which drives your pistons, turns your wheels, moves your car or truck. The greater the number of calorific or heat-producing units a gasoline has, the greater its potential power. But potential power is not actual power. Unless every particle of fuel burns, instantly unless all the heat units are developed and utilized in one con centrated effort power is wasted. This year's Atlantic Gasoline is not only higher in calorific power, but it is so accurately balanced with the volatile elements needed for rapid vaporization, quick ignition and complete combustion that it delivers power to the utmost And this high Atlantic quality never varies. Every tankful you buy is just like the last. Make a long-period test and note its uniform, depend able performance. Also note the disappearance of fuel knocks, the diminishing of carbon, the increase in mileage. Consider, too, that with Atlantic there's seldom any emergency need to "switch," for "There's an Atlantic Pump on the road you are traveling" 0 Beautiful Lighting Fixtures That Welcome You Home greeting you with their rich, warm glow, diffusing soft, mellow light that is so 'important to the physical and mental rest you seek.
