Both rose to their feet, Habit, per-
haps, rather than any regret for her
words, induced her to dismiss him with
a tender expression on her face. And
Murgatroyd bowed low over the hand
she offered him, pressed it and, with
out a word of protest, went out of the
room. With his departure went out the
last glimmer of hope that he would
ever return to his better self. Nothing
could stop him now. AS for Shirley?
The moment the door closed on him she
sank 9th a moan into a chair.
/. Thorne took an appeal from the YER
diet of conviction. He had been care
full to take exception to each bit of
questionable evidence.
II think" he assured Mrs. Challoner,
that | have found more Than one hook
to hang a hat on. 1t looks to me like a
reversal
81 am sure 1t will be- she replied.
Her assurance was the same assur-
ance that had sustained her in the
trial. There was still tina mysterious
something that Thorne could not under
stand. She seemed the incarnation of
hope.
what do you think, chief?" asked
McGrath of Murgatroyd, one day after
the appeal had been argued.
Murgatroyd shrugged his shoulders.
That verdict will stick was his
only comment.
by the way said McGrath. Penn
mican keeps mum up there in Jail; but
he's getting restless as thunder. Hi
wants to know how soon you're going
to try him on this gambling charge.
Murgatroyd smiled.
'In due course he returned, "but
you can tell Pemmican unofficially that
the quickest way for him to get on
trial-or in fact the quickest way for
him to get off without trial-to get out
of Jail, is to let me know the name of
the man higher up. I'm looking for
John Doe, and | expect to keep Penn
mican under lock and key until / get
him. You understand"
HE sure does KICK laughed Nc
Grath.
Shirley and Miriam and even Chal-
loner watched the course of events
with great interest. Miriam's mouth
was sealed upon the question of the
bride, but Challoner absorbed what he
had heard in the courtroom, and hazy
though it had been, he noted that
Miriam's manner was still hopeful, In
fact, certain. Shirley, too, felt, rather
thar knew, that Murgatroyd had re-
moved from himself not the faint OF
bribery, but the violation Of his com
pact. She felt the thing was cut and
dried.

OUR CHILDREN,S CORNERf
MAKING RAG RUGS.

JUST the mere word carpet rag"
strikes terror to the heart of the
= ordinary young girl, who imme-
diately connects the word with tedious
tearings and servings. and in the end
nothing gained but/"an ugly rag car
pet" But if girls would only over
come their dislike to "carpet-ragging'
and save all the pretty bright bits of
ribbon, silk, wool and cotton-for all
may be used together-that happen to
fall to hand, they would soon have a
fine assortment of rags, enough to
make a pretty rug for their floor.
"Rug?, most of the girls will ask.
why we thought only ugly carpets
were woven of rags!" Well, just read
the rest of this little article and then
try following the suggestion regarding
the making of a rug.
After you have enough rags to pay
for the trouble take your scissors and
a basket and sit down and begin your
rug. Cut the weolen and velvet rags
into half-inch wide strips. Cut the
cotton and silk rags twice that. width.
After all have been cut, which will
take more than one afternoon, min
you, begin sewing them together re-
CARELESS of quality. Be sure to mix
your colors well, getting in bits of blue,
yellow. red inc green at regular
lengths of dull-colored cotton. After
you have sewn about a pound OF the
rags together, roll them into a tight
ball and put away. This is for con-
venience. as 1t would be rather difficult
to handle a ball larger than that
When you have about ten or twelve
balls of about a pound each, you may
begin plating for the rug. Take three
| balls and plat from the loose ENDS,
unrelling as you plat. And SO on n
on YOU go till the entire ten or twelve
balls are plated.
After all the plating is done. take a
coarse needle and heavy linen thread Oh
a bright red and begin sewing a round
mat of the plated strips. You must DC
very careful not to cup" you mat
and sew it as you would the straight
round brim of a straw hat. Hold each
~o,lter strip very full so that it VIII lie
fiat upon a smooth surface.
OF course. you may use your own
taste in regard to the size of your rag
mat or. rug. If you wish one to cover
the centre of your room, you must have
a very large quantity Of rags before
beginning to plat them up, but for a
medium-sized rug. say large enough to
stretch in front of your writing desk
or the CRATE. abou the number of
nounds named above will be sufficient.
For the girl who delights In having

Labor of her own hands the rag rug

as artistically. And the time spent in

Murgatroyd laid down his carbon

He read the first page and rose to his

Murgatroyd read the yellow sheets
again.
Great Caesar!" he exclaimed.
Mixley, still lingering, now asked:
ANY news from the Court of Errors
and Appeals?"
Murgatroyd nodded.
Here's their opinion-just handed
down."
REVERSAL"
Murgatroyd shook his head.

he added, take this carbon cop over
to Thorne, will you? He'll want to see
it,
"Shall / tell him?" faltered Mixley.
Tell hin nothing" Murgatroyd re-
piled. "Omcially 1 know nothing of this
other thing. I'll investigate it first,
then I can talk to him."
That very day, Thorne, disappointed
as he was, sent a copy of the opinion

Later over the phone he told her:
There is no hope"
But Miriam Challoner was not down
Cast. She had doubted once; but now
she held to her faith in Murgatroyd;
she knew that Murgatroyd would keer
his word. Shirley, though, shook hei
head. She felt that Challoner was
doomed. But when Thorne told her
she begged him not to tell Challonei
until it was absolutely necessary.
And also on that same day Murga-
troyd jumped into a cab and rode of
on a tour of private inspection. Enter
ing a large building he asked:
1T want to see Jennings, If yot
please"
The next day he sent for Thorne.

Thorne read with bullying eyes the
yellow sheets that were thrus before
him. Over and over again he read them
then he leaned over and touched Muir
gatroyd on the arm, saying;
Don't make it public"
why not?'
There are political reasons-many Of
them" pleaded Thorne.
"But it's bound to leak out
Never mind. ! don't want It made
public" Thorne seemed terribly un
easy.
But again Murgatroyd persisted;

sponded Thorne. Just leave the whole
thing to me. I'll see that everything
is done"
"Tll go with you before the court a.

And that very day they did go before
the court. The court opened its eyes
and heard what they a to say.
"well. well.,' exclaimed the court.

found them with their heads together.
~"Broderick," said the lawyer, this
is going to hurt Cradlebaugh's more
than ever. The Challoner case has
jumped from the frying pan into the
fire" His grip frightened on Broderick.
This thing has got to be hushed up"
IF it's got to be, 1t "a be-" de-
clared the politician.

Broderick grinned as he said:

Thorne's nod seemed to say
"Murgatroyd."
mo, not a bit of 1t. You take my
word for it, M%urgatroyd will never open
his mouth again on the subject of the
Challoner case. He took that cash
he can't fool mel"
Thorne sighed:
you think we're safe with him?"
Broderick dismissed the subject of the
prosecutor with a wave of the hand.
Mrs. Challoner is the fly in the oint
ment."
Thorne, in turn, quite as vigorously
dissented:
you're wrong there. : I'll handle Mrs.
Challoner. If she ever asks questions,
I'll answer her with the right kim OF
answers. Don't worry, Broderick," and
looking at his watch, 4added: YOU'D

And again on that very day the doors
of the big building that Murgatroyo
had visited opened wide. From then
there stepped forth a man-no, fou'
men-four men laden heavily. Witt
these four men was a fifth. but he was
unseen. Between them, in the full hgh'
of day, the four men carried a long
oak box, carried 1t quietly but swiftly
and swung it suddenly into a battered
looking hearse. .

CURES ECZEMA QUICKLY
New Discovery Has Re~voiutionIzed the
Treatment of skin Diseases.

Treatment of Skin Diseases.
Nothing in tho history of medicine has
ever approached the success of the mar.
velous skin remedy known as poslam
which, 1t is safe to say has cured more
cases of eczema and skin diseases thar
any remedy aver offered for these ills
The success of poslam Is not at al
surprising when 1t Is considered that
even a very small quantity applied to
The skin stops itching Immediately and
cures chronic cases In two weeks. The
very worst cases of eczema. as well as
acne, herpes, letter, piles. salt rheum,
rash, crusted humors, scaly scalp and
every form of itch, yield to 1t readily.
Blemishes such as pimples. red noses,
muddy and infiamed ski disappear al
most Immediately when poslam is APP
piled, the complexion being cleared
overnight.
Every druggist keeps both the 50-cent
size (for minor troubles) and the 81 Jar,
and either of these may be obtained In
Newark at Riker's, Petty's Pharmacy
and C. B. Smiths, as we'll as other re-
liable drug stores.
But no one Is even asked to purchase
poslam without first obtaining an ex-
perimental package which will be sent
by mail, free of charge, upon request, by
the Emergency Laboratories, 80 West
T~wenty-ffth street, New York City.

THE NEVADA WAY
 AND THE ARIZONA WAY
The Latter, with the Best opportuni- ties Fails of Success, for Faith Without Works Is Dead.

Winchester, April 19.-(Special Cor respOndence of The Republican)-Th Nevada booms are started with a six horse load of bull quartz, with Finni-- gans brass band riding on top and Billy the Kid and Mike Hogan, the discoverer of the Desert Wonder. and a few booze fighters marching ahead. The band plays something fast and ex- citing all the way down Main street, and the armed guards meet the treas ure-laden wagons just outside of the boom town and escort it to the near est dumping ground. The next day the Daily Hooter" of the nearest town comes out with big headlines and lengthy notices on the new camp and prints photographs of the new town, with Joe Bolona, the saloon man, standing in front of the Pioneer thirst parlor, and gathered around him are several tinhorn gamblers, with glass jewelry and black mustaches. Com panies are organized, and all day long large crowds hang around the wild catters'" office and clamor for stock in the new bonanZas. The boom is on and automobiles, wagons and burros are pressed into service by the eager crowds, and in two weeks twenty thou sand people are on the ground ready to be fleeced.
 Here in Arizona, where some of the largest mines in the world are produc- ing millions. a new find is made which surpasses anything that was ever found in any country. and still the people refuse to aid in the development of legitimate mining business where mill ions of dollars could be made.
 This new camp was opened up with the intention of helping the people by giving them the opportunity of inter- esting themselves in good mines that will pay dividends for years to come.
 The temporary shutdown of the Glory Hole has in no way affected the rest of the camp, and farseeing men are interesting themselves in the camp, and within a very short time large forces of miners will be at work de- Veloping the mines. No mining camp in any country ever had better sur face showings than the new camp around Winchester has. New people are coming in every day and hundreds of men are prospecting the large min eral belt and new finds are of daily occurrence. The lodges are strong and carry high values in gold and sil- yer and show indications of perma- nency.
 People looking for good investments in mines and other business would do well to look this field over The new camp will mean much to Phoenix and the Salt River valley in general
