ents can offer no objection In such a
case as this. You might take him a

CHAPTER VI.

A FTER fordlng Sweetwater river
"a several times to throw pursuit
off the track, Buck Mckee and
their mounts and hold council as to
their future movements. During the
flight both had been silent; Mckee was
busy revolving plans for escape in his
mind, and Bud was %brooding over the
tragic ending of the lawless adventure
into which he had been led by his COM
panion. When Mckee callously in
formed him that the agent had been
killed in the encounter, Bud was too
Mortified to speak. A dry sob arose in
his throat at the thought of his old
friend lying dead, all alone. In the sta
tion. His first impulse was to turn
back to Florence n surrender him
self to the sheriff. Had this entailed
the punishment OF himself alone, he
would rave done so. but he still re-
tanned a blind loyalty In his associate
and principal In the crime. Murder, 1t
seemed, was to be expected when one
TOOK the law in his hands to right an
injustice. He didn't clearly understand
1t. 1t was his first experience with a
killing. The heartlessness of Mckee
both awed and horriied him. Evident
ly the half-breed was accustomed to
such actions. 1t appeared to be n
tirely justified in his code. 81 Bud fol-
lowed IN dun silence the masterful man
who had involved him in the fearful
deed.

band dearly, and can eve forget him.
Recently a man about forty has been
paying me a great deal OF attention,
and the other night he asked me TO
marry him. Now, Miss Doom, he Is
very well-to-do. and could give me and
my little girl a nice home, but I do not
really love him, though l highly re-
spect him and think a great deal of
him. He says he will not expect me to
care for him as much as I did for my
husband. and that he knows he can
make me happy. I am very poor, and
have to sew by the day. Do you think
1t would be a mistake to marry him?
Please give me your advice, as I AN
not make UP my mind what to do.
I think more of him than l could any
other nan on earth. WIDOW.
A great deal depends on how we'll
you know the man. I think 1t would
be wise to tell him frankly that you
can never love another as you loved
your husband, but that you care for
him a great deal In another sort of
way. II, after he understands the

WHEN BUYING SHOES.

1t is said that people should never
go in the early morning to buy shoes,
for the feet are then smaller han they
are at a%ny~pther time of the day. Later
the feet are the maximum size, owing
to walking and standing. Many people
do not agree with this. for they think
that later in the day, when shoes have
beer worn, the feet contract. How
ever, try on shoes at both times-morn-
ing and afternoon. Then they will be
sure to fit.

The Bathroom Equipment.

For a dr~essing-room or bathroom a
good idea Is to have Indian mating
put along the wall as a kind of dado.
1t may be fastened under the wainscot
board. but II 1t is being put UP after
the room is fitted, a small additional
piece Of molding may be put along the
top of the board to hold the edge of
the mat. A similar strip ON beading
u n around the room to hold the upper
edge at a height of two and a half feet
from the floor. The advantage Of India
mating Is that it does not spot If
splashed and gives a light, clean ap-
pearance to the room.
From the standpoint of comfort. cork
carpet Is decidedly the thing for the
bathroom or dressing-room. 1t is warm
to the feet and easy to clean. Oilcloth

Every Newark woman has her own
answer to this question. Some claim
that Newark women are better dressed
than their New York sisters because
they expend more for materials than
for trimmings, giving a richer, but far
q~uieter appearance. Others declare
that the average Newark woman looks

others maintain that Newark women
wear their clothes better, and 1t has

States to found at Washington an "es-
adjustment for the increase and diffu-
sion of knowledge among men," This
establishment was to be called the
Smithsonian Institution. The nephew
died without an heir In 1885, and the
Hon. Richard Rush was sent to London
to present the claim of this country to
the reversion. He succeeded in his mis-
sion and brought back. in 1888, $751; 60,
the proceeds Of the estate. The institu-
ton was organized by Congress in 1S46.
1t is one of the interesting places to
visit in Washington. 1t contains a mu-
scum, a library, cabinets of natural his
tory and lecture-rooms. A part OF Its
funds is devoted to scientific researches
and the publication Of works too expen-
sive for individual enterprise. There
are departments Of astronomy, ethnol-
ogy, meteorology and terrestrial mag
