Then he limped on through the twi-
light toward the dormitory a mile
away.
That evening Harwell sat in the liv-
ing room of his fraternity house nurs-
ing his aching muscles and giving an
occasional sneeze. The hundred yard

was lost. he was strangely Indifferent.
Then ne was called to the telephone.
Miss Alice Summers, who was staying
at the hotel with her mother, would be
glad to have him ell.
As Harwell. very cold and dignified,
stalked into the reception room Alice
her winsome face eager, led him to a
quiet corner Dick" she said hest
tatingly. did | act very brutal this
afternoon?"
Dick thought for a moment Eyes"
he replied firmly.
Alice caught her breath. But how
could | know that you had been so
fine? You said nothing"
There was nothing to say. 1t was
Small's inning"
"Smallr' shifted Alice. Don't men
ton Billy Small to mel l think you are
fine, but could get that from what
Billy said only by inference. Dick, did
you get chill?'
Dick nodded. and Alice's face filed
with dismay. With two brothers in
college, she understood all the shad-
ings of training.
"Oh, Dickr' she said ooh. Dickp'
Something in her tone made Dick
look up. "But you don't care" he said
bitterly
Don't II" she replied. well, per-
haps | do care, more that you were
brave and fine enough to give up all
chances In the meet to help a man
who was not worth it."
The room swan around giddily. Dick
clutched the arms of his chair, and
! then both the girls slender hands were
in his.
"Dick," she whispered, "don't you
see that what you have done is better
than winning ten dashes?'
81 am sure of it." said Dick And
there was thrill of joy in his voice
that left no doubt as to his meaning.

There is one remarkable peculiarly
of the series of Himalayan ranges be-
tween the vale of Kashmir and the
central Asian watershed. They are one
after another cut right across by ridges.
The reason for this is that the rivers
were there before the ranges were
formed, and as by the crlnkling Of the
earth's crust the ranges were raised
the rivers cut gorges through them
and maintained their flow. Manga Par.
bat Is part of the true and principal
Himalayan range, and its summit rises
to the stupendous altitude above sea
level of 26,630 feet. Close to it's foot,
not more than ten miles in horizontal
distance from the peak, the Indus
flows through desert gorge, and here
the height above sea level Of the river
bed is not much above 5000 feet. 1t is
easy to conceive from these figures on
how vast d scale natures architecture
is here set up. The path along the side
of the gorge is in places perilously mar
row and carried across precipices Of
such appalling character that at one
point man who lost his footing fell
mile in vertical height and was Of
course smashed to atoms

"Raising wheat is no easy task" re-
marked a farmer zone year l had
500 acres of as beautiful wheat as ever
lay out of doors. 1t stood breast high,
and it seemed good for forty bushels
to the acre. That meant to me a
profit of $1,000 had the teams and
harvest hands engaged and expected
to begin cutting on Monday On Fri
day afternoon there came out of the
northwest a greenish gray cloud. Fol
lowing heavy rain, the hail fell. In
ten minutes the wheat was fiattened to
six inches from the ground. We cut a
little of it for hay The remainder rot
ted on the ground, The mortgage Oh
the farm was foreclosed. and | hired
out by the day to support my family.
DO you wonder that the wheat farmer
Is not boastful OF his crop until he has
it In the granary outlook.

Alice's
Strategy
By EDWIN FOWLER
Copyright, 1906, by E. G. PARCELS

John Caravan did not object to Tom
sonally he liked him Immensely, and
it was with real regret that he refused
to give his consent to Tommy's en-
gagement TO his daughter Alice.
Tommy went out of the study feel
ing as blue as the enamel on the auto
mobile that painted at the curb, but
Alice took a more cheerful view of the
matter.
Don't mind father" she comforted.
I've managed him ever since mother
died and I'll find way to make him
behave. He didn't tell you not to come
around did he?'
No" was the terse response HE
told me to come around all l wanted
and help him keep the other fellows
off. I'll do that, you bet"
What was his reasonY' she asked.
"Said l was too fond of outdoors to
be good merchant"
rs that all?" she asked in surprise.
Il thought from your face it was some
thing serious" She patted him ON
the shoulder. "Now run along" she
commanded Il want to have a chat
with father before he can think it over
and get the idea rooted In his mind
that he doesn't want you in the fam
ily"
Tenley went down the steps much
comforted. Ever since they had known
each other Alice had always taken the
lead, and he was content TO follow. He
climbed into the auto and rumbled off
with the comfortable feeling that all
would come we'll
He was not the sort of man who is
content to hold back and let a woman
plan. He was willing TO take the in
itiative when necessary, but he knew
that Alice knew her fathers whims
better than he did, and more than once
she had, with her woman's wit, accom-
| plished more than his bulldog peril
nacity would have gained
Alice nodded wisely when he met
her that evening. but he did not ques-

The origin Of croquet is certainly in

the old game Of pale maille," or pell

Furs Not Always what They seem.


Does the average fur buyer know
that the far eastern mink is simply a
dyed marmot with the black stripes
painted in with a toothbrush Does
the buyer know that the low priced
black lynx sets are nothing but com
mon wildcats or Roumanian cats or
in some cases soft Chinese wolf skin?
Does he know that the white ermine
pillow muffs. selling for song are
really weasels, and yellow weasels at
that since white weasel commands
almsst as high price as its dear rela-
tive the ermine? Then the sable lynx
scarfs and muffs that sell for few
dollars are of course nothing but coney
or hare, while the cheaper caracal sets
are simply kid astrakhan, which is
something entirely different from cara
cal-as different indeed as ordinary
Persian is from broadtail. The beau
tifu imitation white fox sets that APP
pear also are generally moufon, or in
some cases combed white tibet-Nu-

back in her seat. "'Tenley & Garyan

appreciation of the joke. 81 engage

There is no free list" said Alice
positively ITS pay in advance where
customers are known to us"
Caravan threw his head back and
roared, but he sobered a little when
Tommy made no move to leave his
scat.
What is your prlce?' he demanded.
IF it's that necklace you may have it,
only hurry up. There is a meeting Of
the board of governors at the club to-
night"
Il know it," she said placidly. you
never can get back in time unless we
fix you up
Il know it, too" he agreed. 81 don't
care what the price is. only hurry. The
mosquitoes are eating me up"
DO you consent to our engagement? ~
she demanded.
The smile faded, and the old mans
face became cholerc.
Il won't be forced" he cried sullenIy.
I'VE are not trying to force you,''
was the even response.
Then go ahead" lie said stormiIy.
Il won't pay; that's all there is to it,"
1--WE are always willing to wait on a
prospect " she smiled.
For fifteen minutes they sat there,
the old man Tuning over the mechan-
ism, which never had seemed so com
plicated, the younger people chatting
and laughing quietly to themselves.
At last Garvan looked up. See here, .
he said, Tets stop this foolishness.''
DO you engage us?n
Not on those terms"
Alice drew a package of sandwiches
from basket and handed Tommy one
1t served only to remind the old gen
tleman of his fast approaching dinner
hour. He stood it ten minutes longer,
then with a snort he climbed into the
seat

There was whispered conference
and Tommy climbed down. Five min

chimes were slipping down the road.

Dancing.


Gracefulness is Of course the highest
object of the dance among all peoples,
but their conceptions of what consti
tutes grace differ widely. According
to student OF dancing. who has wit
messed tens of thousands of dances In
all parts OF the world, who has pene-
trated to the interior of Africa and the
desolate mountains Of western China,
there are three dances that to his
way of thinking, are equal in beauty,
in grace and III the poetry of motion.
These are the dances Of the Javanese
Mohammedans, especially the "love
dance" in which only the younger wo-
men participate; tie tarantella Of
Christian Italy and the butterfly dance
OF Japan. That dancing loses In poetry,
In fire in meaning, as civilization In
creases is the belief of this student of
the art The modern dances Of civiliz-
ed nations, especially as expounded on
the stage are not only meaningless and
lacking in the beauty Of the original
dance, but actually degenerate and
merely physical contortions that, while
they may be rhythmic and graceful.

The oldest known tunnel in the world
is that of Siloah, near Jerusalem. II
was used as an aqueduct. The famous
Inscription, discovered some years ago
celebrates the first meeting of the dig

not appear in those days, and so the
event cannot be exactly dated, but IL
most probably took place under King
