RAGE IN HEAVEN

SYNOPSIS:

Dr Rameau has called the British Consul to his private insane arylum outside of Paris to help identify a mysterious English peranolac, who calls himself Ward Andrews. But while they consult, the patient, unseen, escapes. In London, a few days later, Philip Monrell meets his brilliant friend Ward Andrews at a bar. Amused, Philip thinks of how he had used Ward's name in Paris, because it gave him a sense of importance. Ile and Ward go to his home in the country and there meet Stella Bergen, a beautiful refugee who is now companion to Philip's mother, Stella is drawn to Ward but turns to Philip when Mra Monrell must go away for her health and calls on Stella's gratitude to look after her son. Philip and Stella marry. They are happy, but out of sheer perversity he neglects his work as head of the steel mill at Chassingford. His behaviour is extremely erraile and to-day, at the mill, in order to build up his own importance, he has rejected the budget to fix up his workingmen's homes,

HAT EVENING, Stella had mournfu news. Her kitten had been found lying in Platt's Inne, just behind the steel works. Its neck had been broken.

Unaccountably, Philip be-

But a while later he came to her, penitent. "I'll make it up to you," he said tenderly, "I'm sorry the kitten is gone. I'll buy you a hundred of them."

He was watching her. "Be- cause Ward gave it to you?" She jumped up. "Ward. Ward Ward. Always Ward! If you can't rid yourself of that idea you'll—”

"I'll go mad," he returned evenly. "Is that what you wanted to aay?"

Sho turned to him serious- ly. "Philip, I'll tell you some- thing. When I first met Ward, I thought he was charming and perhaps he was interested in me, I don't know. But I married you didn't it?" He smiled peculiarly. "So he was interested in you. Of course, I knew it all the time."

THAT NIGHT he sent a Ward. telegram to For the next day he went around hugging the secret to his heart. Ward was coming for a visit. Imagine how surprised Stella would be. Maybe she'd faint betray herself in some way like that.

Instead, her eyes simply widened when Philip led Ward in that evening. He had gono to the station him- self to meet him with the car.

At dinner, Philip' was“ all, gaiety. He insisted on toast to Ward and then went into an earnest account of how happy he and Stella were. Ward was really delighted for them. Once, Philip left the room to fetch a bottle of wine from the cellar. When he re- turned he listened at the door for a moment. Perhaps they were saying something inter eating, something about, their own feelings. He was a little disappointed, though. Ward

was simply commenting on how marvellous Philip looked. "I noticed it the moment I 3BW him. He's positively sleek with happiness."

Now Philip came back and the gaiety

was resumed. Then, after the second bottle of wine, Philip stated his pro- position. He wanted Ward to come and work at the fac- tory. Mr Black, his chief engineer, had left and he was offering-Ward-the-position-at- twice the salary he was get- ting in Scotland.

Ward was dazed. "I-I hardly know what to say. It's a far better chance than I deserve."

Philip grasped his hand. "Then you accept? That's wonderful." He raised his glass aloft. "May we all still be together ten years from now just as we are to-night. Stella? Ward? Το three."

IT WAS LATE THAT NIGHT

I and the moon was shining.

Phillp wrole in his diary, "To- day Ward came. Now we shall see what will happen. Nothing- I hope. But there must be no more of these torturing doubts. I've got to know."

He rose and tiploed into her room. For a long moment, he stood over her. She was sound asleep, her breast rising and falling with the regularity of her breathing, He nodded and said, painfully, "Now you're dreaming of him. I can see it in your face."

Two mornings later he an- nounced a surprise. He had to leave on a business trip. Не wouldn't be gone more than ե week at the frost and would most certainly wire when, he was com- ing back...

WARD LEFT THE STEEL W WORKS early that day and stopped in to have a chat with Stella. "The moment he began to. speak, she suffened. It was about Mr Black. He had heard, why Block had left. What was the matter with Philip? Why did he become as obstinate as A child sometimes? It was

unexplain-

able.

"Stop it. Ward, I won't discurs Philip behind his back."

Ward was amazed. "But Stelio, I'm asking you to help me. You're the only one who has any indu- ence over him." She stood there, facing him angrily, and finally he Lurned to the door. "Well then there's nothing more for me to say.. Goodnight"

But that, evening a great wave "shouldn't have said that: to Ward. of, contritton came over her. She

Ward nodded. "Philip's hand- ling the men the wrong way."

The men, however, weren't going to stand for it. They had always trusted their bosses to give them a square deal. They had worshipped Philip's father. Now Philip had come along and they didn't under- sland him at all,

"And Stella," Ward concluded, "you've got to talk to him. You must,"

She looked away. "All right, I can try. But Ward, I don't think he'll yield an inch." Her eyes All- ed with tears and she twisted her Angers together.

All at once, Ward let out ejaculation. "Stella, what a fool I've been. Forgive me. I didn't realise that this is the Arst time you and Philip have been send ed. You're lonely for him. fre I've been discussing his bust- without hining of your feelings." Ho

DY the time the coffee and liqueurs arrived that even- Ing, they had thoroughly discussed the English cricket situation and Ward was teasing Stella with a highly technical discussion of his new type of annular bearing. He went through the molecular dis- integration and the calibration and Anally she cried out in laughter.

"Stop! Stop! It's fascinating but I don't understand a word,"

She looked up and suddenly sho paled.

Ward followed her gaze. "Hello, Philip. Are you back already?"

Philip was well pleased with himself. He had certainly taken Stella by surprise. "Obviously."

He sat down and said lightly. "Sorry I didn't wire. I finished in Londen much sooner than I ex- pected." He turned to Ward. "Thank you for taking Stella out." "You don't have to thank me," Ward smiled. "Thank Stella. for coming. You know, Philip, we were talking about you to-day--" Phillip seemed amused, "What a depressing subject. Couldn't you think of anything more romantic?"

"Look here. Philip," Ward said, "it's about the housing project. I know it's hard for a man in your position to reverse a decision. It takes courage, but believe me, if you do, the men will respect you for it. We all shall."

Philip's voice was thin. "Well, as it happens, I don't want respect. I want obedience! Do you under- stand?" He smiled. "I think per- haps we'd better drop this discus sion. I might get angry."

Stella put her hand on Ward's arm. "Word. Let's go."

Philip waited until they were at the door. Then he went to the clerk on the desk. "Put Mr An- drew's dinner on my bill please. How much do I owe you?"

"Leaving us already, Mr Mon- rell?" the clerk asked. Ho opened his ledger. "

Philip. fidgeted. He didn't want anyone to overhear the transac- tion. Stella and Ward must not have the slightest clue that he had been right here at the Inn to-night and not gone to London at all. It had been a fine plan, and it had worked.

So Stella and Ward were now brazen enough to go out publicly on a merrymaking spree together. Well, he'd walt and watch for fur- ther developments.

Many of the great men and

women of to-day were sensitive, highly-strung children

But with sensitive children there are dangers that have to be watched during childhood

WHEN a child is highly-strung Wand sensitive, it depends in many ways on you whether he'll develop into a fine human being or not.

You see, a highly-strung child has got all the qualities that are necessary to put him far and away ahead of other children. He's alert, quick on the up-take, keen in his reactions.

But it is in this very mental and physical make-up of the child that the danger lies. He lives more in- tensely reacts more vividly to every little thing in his surround- Ings. That's why the bringing up of such children, needs for more insight on the part of the parents than the bringing-up of ordinary. children.

Many such brilliant children have failed in life. They've grown up wook. easliy-led and over-sensitive, simply because their parents did not understand certain health warnings in child- hood,

When you notice that your child is off his food, or that he looks pale, puffy under the eyes, that he's rather nervous and irritable or gets tired too easily, then you should act quickly.

All these are warning signs that the child is using up his nervous energy more quickly than he's replacing it. And lat night, during sleep, that these stores of nervous energy should be replaced. If they are not re- placed, the nervous strain on the child gets worse and worse. Ho is suffering from Night Storva- tion.

ncas,

If you give your child Horlicks overy night at bedtime, his tired- paleness and "nerviness" WEI disappear.

Herlicks,

by guarding against Night Starvation, replaces nervous energy during sleep, strengthens nerves, and builds appetite. Your chlid will grow up strong and healthy, able to make the most of his special qualities.

Start your child on Horlicks to- night. Horlicks is obtainable at all good stores,
