confronted by a fresh complication,
one unforeseen: how to leave the
house without being observed,
stopped, and perhaps detained until
too late? There would be men at the
door, beyond doubt; possibly police,
stationed there to arrest all persons
attempting to leave. -.
No time for weighing chances. The
choice of two alternatives lay before
her: either to return to the alcove
or to seek safety in the darkness of
the upper floors-untenanted, as she
had been at pains to determine. The
latter seemed by far the better, the
less dangerous, course to pursue. And
at once she took 1t.
There was no light on the first
floor landing-it having presumably
been extinguished by the janitor early
in the evening. Only feeble twilight
obtained there. in part reflected glow
from the entrance hall, partly thin and
diffused rays escaping from Maitland's
study. So it was that the first few
steps upward took the girl into dark
ness SO close and unrelieved as to
seem almost palpable.
At the turn of the staircase she
paused. holding the rail and resting
for an instant, the while she listened,
ere ascending at a more sedate pace

Sales at Pennington.

Seventeen cars of forty-fold
wheat brought 81 bushel at
Pennington Friday, the highest
price ever paid for that variety
IN the northwest. Fifty thousand
bushels were sold at 81 at Wes-
ton, Eastern Oregon, on Satur-
day, and at Ritzville No. l blue
stem commands $105, and 95
cents is paid for red. When wheat
sells at these prices it is difficult
to induce Inland Empire farmers
to engage in poultry growing on
a commercial scale. Wheat around
ST. bushel means big profits and
easy farming, but when wheat
and other grains bring high
prices eggs and poultry also GO
to the top of the market, and
while the farmers are growing
dollar wheat the women folks
and young people can be sure OF
a profitable side line with chick.
ems, and farm life is more attrac.
tive where the table is supplied
with fresh eggs and chicken din
ners. But we need still greater
interests. The markets of the Pa.
clfic Northwest are paying fancy
prices for cold storage poultry
and packed eggs, and several mil
lion dollars are drained out of the
Inland Empire every year for
eggs, poultry and dairy products
II the home market were supplied
with home products our people
would live better and the money
would be kept at home.--Spokes-

Fine w heat.

Nearly a century ago David
Fife. a Scotchman who had emil
grated to Canada, sent to a
friend in Glasgow for small bag
of seed wheat to try on a cleared
patch of back woods The friend
obtained some seed from a vessel
lust in from DANTE. Unfortunate
ly it was AN autumn wheat, and
reached Fife in the spring. Never
theless David Fife sowed it in the
spring. Only three wheat heads
survived till the autumn, but
those three heads were entirely
free from rust that had ruined
his neighbors crops, and really
represented new variety of
wheat David Fife treasured the
three heads and planted them in
the spring. Such was the Begin
ming of Fife wheat in America,
wheat that is now reaped from
millions of acres of our agricul-
tural fields.

A Severe Advancement.

The farmer who is too poor to
buy a pair of warm blankets for
his team, with wheat at over 81
a bushel, ought to try doing the
chores in a union suit and see how
he likes it. The man who will al.
low a faithful team stand for
hours in the teeth of bitter cold
while he hugs the grocery store
stove and solves the tariff ques-
tion, has disposition hard to
compare with. We have seen men
who had plenty of time to gable
about Joe Cannon and the new
railroad, but who were too busy
to slip couple of blankets on
a shivering team. The man who
allows his team to freeze on win.
ter's evening ought to be called
upon to do jig at the tail of a
toasting fork that will last two
thousand years in the hot
place .-Endicott Index.
