river basin between the Cascade
range on the west and the Rocky
mountains on the east.
There are about 100000 acres OF
land in the Occur d'Alene reserva-
ton which is now being classified as
agricultural and timber land. This
reservation is said to contain some
very fine agricultural land.
Lake Occur d'Alene is beautiful
body of water about 25 miles in
length, about one-third of which lies
within the reservation. At the north
end of the lake is Occur d'Alene city,
the registration point for the lands in
this reservation. Lake Occur d'Alene
is becoming very popular as a sum-
mer resort. Good fishing is to be had
and there are splendid bathing beaches
and opportunities for canoeing and
sailing.
The Spokane Indian reservation oc
cupies the southern part of Stevens
county, Washington. 1t is bordered
on the south by the Spokane river,
on the east by Chamokane creek and
on the west by the Columbia river
The reservation contains about $4,000
acres of land which is now being
classified and appraised. There is
some timber land in this reservation,

The Indians on the Spokane reser.
walton are generally intelligent and
peaceable and all are self-supporting.
In character they are as far above
the vagabond Siwashes who frequent
the alleys and backdoors of the city
as the white farmers are above the
common hoboes. Chief Joseph, head
of the once powerful Nez Perez tribe,
who gave Gen. o. 0. Howard his hard
est fight in frontier days, lived there
several years after his Punishment
from the Snake river country. He
was the most intelligent Indian of his
time and his death was deplored by
the whites and reds alike.
Antoine Shelea is the sole survivor
of the old chieftains. He lives in the
Antoine valley, near the Okanogan
river. In the early days there was
only one great chief, but before his
death he appointed three, one OF
whom is old Antoine, who is head OF
the tribe. Most of the Indians live in
houses and cultivate small farms,
with basket making and beadwork, at
which they are adopts. They like to
visit and they are never too busy
to feast and talk of the days that
were and of those to come

LOVES
AWAKENING
BY CHARLES L. DOYLE
Copyright, by w. G. Chapman.)

Maude Alvin had promised Edwin Raj
ston that she would become his wife,
her promise had been given two
months before, and there seemed to
be no reason why she should regret it.
There was certainly no fault to be
found with her prospective husband
as far as money, family and position
went, and Maude was not ambitious.
Yet her aunt, Mrs Chambers, who was
living over her own youth in this love
affair of her favorite niece, had said
rather anxiously to the girls mother
only yesterday: do you think Maude
is really happy?"
why shouldn't she be?" responded
Mrs. Alvin. Surely Edward is as
good match for her as she is for
him.
Yes, l know, but-do you think,
Fanny, that she loves him as woman
should love the man she is about to
marry?"
You must remember" replied her
sister, gravely, that Maude was never
like other girls in anything, and we
cannot expect her to be any different
If this case. She is not to be judged
by ordinary standards, and is certainly
not too impressionable"
Mrs. Alvin ended her sentence with
an uneasy laugh, she seemed divided
between amusement and Impotence
when discussing this child of hers,
whom she but little understood.
Just why Maude had promised to
wed Ralston she scarcely knew. Per
haps it was merely because he was
such an old friend, and his mood had
fallen n SO well with hers that night
in July as they stood on the beach at
Atlantic City, watching the long, sill

when he saw the look Of pain come
over the open countenance OF the visi-

vered roll of the sea. She was think
ing OF it as she sat alone this late Oc-
tOber evening. Al east wind, pene-
trating and chill, swept in from the
ocean and a bright fire burned in the
open CRATE.
Maude moved over to the piano, her
slender hands touched the keyboard,
and from under them swelled the open
ing bars of Rubenstein's Melody" a
sure indication in her of a softened
mood. She played on and on, some
times dreamily, sometimes mournfully,
sometimes with splendid power and
depth, changing at last into move
ment of sad loneliness wherein it
seemed she were playing to her own
thoughts.
In a little while the music came to
q sudden stop and Maude rose and be-
gan to walk nervously back and forth
across the room. She was telling her
self that she could not marry him, aft
er all, and yet had no particular reason
for refusing to carry out her prom
Use, at least no reason that she could
formulate into a thought and express
in words. 1t was useless to try to
shape out plausible explanation, she
would simply tell him that her feelings
were all against it, she meant to ap-
peal to his generosity and beg him to
be still her faithful friend. She
threw herself YEARLY into a chair,
and when the bell sounded in the hall
below, it did not occur to her even
to wonder who it might be at this late
hour. A moment more and Edward
Ralston was shown into the room. A
faint flush stole across her cheeks and
her eyes frightened and widened as
she went to meet him and extend her
hand in greeting.
Il was just thinking of you, Ed
ward" she said, but / imagined you
were away off in New York tonight.
When did you return?"
Ralston did not reply, but sat look
ing steadily at her for several mo-
ments. He seemed strangely unlike
himself, and Maude, burdened by
the weight of the confession she want
ed to make, was afraid.

New York satisfactorily she asked.

A spasm of pain contracted the
mans features. That is what l have
come to speak to you about, Maude,' -
he answered, gloomily. Il could not
put it off for single night"
Something in his manner, more than
his words, smote the girl with a sud
den sense of impending sorrow, she
saw trouble ahead vaguely. That the
tidings he bore in some way concerned
their future she felt certain. Tell me,
Edward-what is it?" she queried,
gently.

What, then? Oh, Maude, you can
guess the inevitable result of such a
crash. must surrender you, too,
along with all the rest, and came to-
night to give you back your promise. y
For a few moments neither spoke.
She was thinking with a thrill Of ex-
ultation, mingled with regret, that now
she would not have to tell him, after
all, that she could not marry him
Fate had interviewed to settle her IiiH
culties. At last the man lifted am.

cold, classic features of the woman

not fathom.

Extravagant Simplicity.

A deceptive feature of the reigning
mode in Paris is the apparent simplici-
ty of the sunshades. They may be in
silk or tussor and have border of
printed flowers in various tones. The
shape is less deep than it was, but it
is not quite Japanese, and the extrava.
gance of this apparent simplicity lies
in the fact that the sunshade must
tone absolutely with the gown with
which it is carried. Tortoise she'll
handles are very much in favor and
the stick should be long.

The Popular Tunic,

Everything points to the growing
of the tunic as a feature of evening
and afternoon gowns. There is moth
ing new about it, nothing startling.
1t has been worn steadily in Paris
by those who wish to differ their
clothes from those worn by the
masses. 1t is, therefore, probable it
will increase in favor, as there has
been no tendency to run it into the
ground.
There are many women who object
to the sheath frock, although they like
the modern silhouette. They approve
of long, slim lines, and they want
to keep them, but not at the expense
Of artistic drapery. Their figures
demand flowing lines, and these are
given by the tunic.
1t begins at the bust in some frocks,
at the shoulders in others, and in
the third class it starts two inches
above the normal waist line.

"Tabloid" Watch,

What might be called a tabloid
watch has just been made by a watch
maker of Locle, Switzerland, says the
London Globe. The thickness is said
to be only three millimeters, so, a
meter being only SO inches, one can
estimate the thickness of the watch.
Taking the case and the glass it is
found the works occupy space of 19
millimeters. The spring is half a
millimeter. What makes this achieve,
ment more extraordinary is that it is
asserted that the watch keeps time,
varying only five seconds in "a hours

into which a couple of razors may be
slipped, that is both decorative and
useful.
1t is circular in shape, and for the
foundation a stout piece of cardboard
should be used and covered on both
sides with silk. On the lower half,
two pockets are arranged, and these
may be lined on the inner side with
soft wash-leather. All round the
edge a ribbon frill is sewn, and there
is a long loop of ribbon with a
rosette at the top, by which it may
be suspended from the wall.
Made in pale pink silk, with frill
and rosette of apple green, it makes
a pretty decoration for bedroom.
With pockets lined with soft silk,
instead of wash-leather, it would make
a useful receptacle for hair-pins of
different sizes, or it might be put to
the uses of an ordinary tidy.
