decisively. "She seems languid and
heavy. The air here is very relaxing
during the hot months; l think I shall
take her to Scotland"
ooh, not to Scotland-poor child
the Journey would be so dreadfully
fatiguing!" pleads Ruby, as she thinks
with CONSERVATION OF the impossible
ity of inducing her mother to permit
her to go so far from home-for al
ready her quick brain has formed a
plan for following the children.
"Yes, 1t might be trying for so young
a child" agrees Mr.. Champley thought
fully. "In that case l must be con-
tent with the moors or the North
Devon coast"
81 should just keep her at home, and
send her down by the sea every morn
ing-sea-air is always bracing," OBJ
serves Ruby, with a feeble hope that
her advice may be taken.
"Mudmouth Is the reverse of brac-
ing" corrects her companion decided
ly; besides, it is not only the air-the
children want a complete change"
"Of course you know best" admits
Ruby, with reluctant and respondent
sigh; "but l always think that chill
dren are happier at home than any
where else"
THAT depends" remarks Robert
Champley vaguely, and with a sharp
sigh.
"Oh, yes, OF coursew agrees Ruby
eagerly; then after a moment she con-
tinues slowly, However trustworthy
servants may be, they can't under
stand everything"
do you mean that the children are
in any way neglected." he asks
quickly.
ooh dear, MOI" laughs Ruby, with
playful head-shake. 81 am sure their
nurse is most attentive from all ac-
counts-but you ought not, for in
stance, to allow her to choose their
clothes. OF course she has no idea
how to dress them-how should she,
poor woman"
"They seem very sensibly clothed to
me-" answers Robert Champley, but
in rather a dubious tone-in fact
tone open to conviction. "As long as
they are warm and comfortable, the
cut isn't of much importance"
But, my dear Mr.. Champley, how
can poor Meg be comfortable in dress
that allows Of no free play of the
limbs? Children ought never to be
hampered by their clothing"
us Meg hampered?"
Almost tortured, l should think, IN
her last dress. AS for Bob, he ought
to be dressed sailor fashion now"
Dear me-what am l to do?" asks
Robert Champley, half-mocking, half
in earnest.
''I tell you what" says Ruby sudden
ly-"I will make clothes for each OF
them as a pattern. Now please don't
! protest-it will only be like the fun
of dressing dolls to me-"
or course Mr.. Champley does pro-
test, but, as usual, he protests in vain;
and when he takes his departure from
the Wilderness that evening he finds
himself weighed down by one more
obligation to Ruby Widen. AS for
Ruby, she is in great spirits-the only
thing which troubles her in the matter
is her total incapacity either to cut out
or to make the clothes in question, see
ing that in reality she knows far less
how children should be dressed than
the nurse whose tastes she has been
| criticising.

"straws Show Which Way the Wind

This is an old adage and one that
has been demonstrated as truthful
many times. The fact that the excur-
sion business in Colorado seeks to use
one particular line is straw that in
dicates where the excursionists hnd

train service. The line in question. the
Colorado Midland, has handled more
excursion and tourist business this
season than ever before in its history,
and this is a straw which indicates
that the Colorado Midland always OF

this desirable result. It has been

Teak Trees 1900 Years old.

The teak wood of Hindoostan is al
most indestructible. The tree reaches
a girth of from 10 to 10 feet and has a
clear trunk of 70 to so feet to the first
limb. The timber retains it's fragrance
to great age. 1t is wonderfully hard
wood, durable and strong, and once
seasoned does not split, crack, warp,
shrink, or alter in shape. In certain
portions of Burmah there is teak 1000
years old. 1t weighs 40 pounds per
cubic foot. Teak is used in India for
construction, bridge-making, sleepers
and furniture. It is exported to Europe
chiefly for building railway carriages,
shipbuilding or making decks and
lower mosts and for the baking Of
armor-plates on ironclads. 1t is pc
culiarly useful for the latter purpose,
owing to the resinous matter which it
contains and which acts as a proven
tive of rust, the wood neither affecting
the iron nor being affected by it.

The wrath of the hot tempered Salvatierra
exceeded the bounds of decorum and OF

and with this he raised his arm TO strike
the unfortunate urchin. But Just then
the neophyfe turned around and beheld
the act of tyranny.

more harsh and angry than his own, and
seizing the uplifted hand with no cere-

Commissioners Will Not Experiment
With the Lake Pavement.
Mr. Wilmot Lake, several weeks ago, re-
quested the District Commissioners to per-
NIT him to superintend the laying of a sys-
tenn OF asphalt pavement Of his own inven-
ton, he agreeing to put the District to no
expense in his effort to demonstrate the
claimed superiority Of his invention. The
Commissioners have refused to grant Mr..
Lakes request.
They explain that all work Of asphalt paw
ing done by the District Is, in pursuance
Of law, done under contract with a five
year guarantee by the contractor concern
Ing the character Of the pavement, and
they do not see how they can require a
contractor to accept the services, as SUPER
tntendent, OF any person, even II such serv-
Ices be voluntary, and the person in ques-
ton Is thoroughly competent, as they be-
inspection OF the work, and the contractor,
under the law. Is entitled to the selection of
his entire working and engineering force.
The Commissioners also believe there
would be considerable difficulty in getting
the contractors to guarantee a pavement
which would be purely experimental; but If
any contractor desires to lay q pavement
according to Mr.. Lakes method ana patent
and will give the usual guarantee, the mat
ter can. then be properly taken up. The
question is thought by the Commissioners
to be purely a business one with the Dis
trtct. and they feel that they should not be
called upon to waive q guarantee or any
street pavements. and that neither Mr..
Lakes method nor any other untried one
should be adopted without full protection
to the District and the public.

CONTROL OF PARK1NGs.
Mr.. Ross Describes the Situation to
the Senate.

Mr.. Ross Describes the Situation to
the Senate.
Commissioner Ross has written to Sena-
tor Mcmillan in regard to Senate bill 1926
to vest in the Commissioners control of
the street parkings. Mr.. Ross says:
II have before me complaints with re-
gard to the occupation of parking spaces
by barrels, boxes and rubbish, which were
referred to tine police department for &C
ton, and On which the lieutenant reports
that by decision of the Court of Appeals
in Libbey's case the offender cannot be
prosecuted for occupying the parkings for
Irivate purposes: also complaints with re-
CARDS to the storing of stone on parking
space, as to which the same situation is
reported to exist. There are, too, numerous
requests for the change of terraces and
for paving parkings in front OF stores
end premises used for business purposes,
etc. You can readily see that with no one
charged with the duty of having obstruc-
items removed with power of enforcing the
same in some court the situation may be,
indeed, deplorable."
District Of Columbia against Libbey the
Court of Appeals held that the power was
vested in the Secretary OF the Interior or
the superintendent of public buildings and
grounds. Mr.. Ross fncloses with his letter
a &C mmunication from the Secretary of the
Interior, in which the latter gives his
written approval of the proposed legisla-
ton contained in the Senate bill under
consideration.
Mr. Ross says the Commissioners will be
pleased to have the authority for the con-
troll of street parkings vested somewhere,
and II 1t does not seem appropriate to
place it in the hands of the Commissioners,
he says it would be better to vest the
sole responsibility and authority in either
the Secretary of the Interior or the super
intendent of public buildings and grounds.
