a great revulsion Of feeling passed
through the old mans being. He felt
wronged: Wilmer suddenly became an
enemy, capable of infinite harm.

slow tones, "Ah have iist ~altogethe'

sho' not straight, Mr.. Theodo'!'
Carson had not heard, or had not
comprehended Winners allusion to
smuggling. In a belated frenzy of
resolution, e~nergized like a fully
charged battery, he donned his work
ing clothes and began the installation
of the new engines which were to make
good his promises to himself, TO Craig
head M Waddy, and to a world which
had long awaited the command of the
air-or to add the name of
| Carson to the list headed by Daedalus
and Son, and in which the tragic end
of Lieutenant Selfridge was less known
than the comic mishaps of Darius
Green. It was a crisis-for Theodore,
for Craighead and Waddy-and for the
world. Love! A mere illusion.
Wilmer walked toward Fort Morgan,
his teeth set. his fists striking vicious
blows at nothing, nearer insane than
he had ever been before. He hated
Carson most violently now, instead of
sourly and inactively as before. HIS
inventive genius was genuine II re-

of~anyone else's ideas as to anything

burning heat was so much more metal

cool breeze that rolled in the vast vol

huge drifts of dry foam on the white

Seated on a log he looked over his
drawings of Carson's airship. He
could understand the method of making
so much wing-surface rotary, and the
abandonment of the screw principle FOR
that of the old feathering wheel; he
understood how the clustered gearings
along the d~ragon-fy's back could set
these beating paddles at any angle or
hold them firm for gliding, or
make them strike down, forward,
or backward. These things meant per-
feet control-save in one thing how
could so great a craft be kept from

balanced by feeling, like a bicycle or

Wilmer smiled. and started forward;
paused; reiterated out of sight, and
stood as if working out some abstruse
problem: flushed as if reyiyifed by
wine; hurried away to the lagoon; drew
a boat from concealment, and rowed
rapidly over to a hotel, half a mile
OF on the north shore.
The submarines boat had come
ashore in the night, and her crew were

POinsettias and Azaleas.

Dear Miss Doom:
:. L have a poinsettia which l value very
much and would like your advice about
the best way to take care of it. l also
have another pretty flower which
seems TO be drying up. 1t has hardly
any leaves, although 1t is alive, as the
buds are opening. l enclose the card
that was tied on it. / have seen them
1oking so fresh in the florists and
would like mine to look the same.
ANXIOUS.
The poinsettia has done all the work
that ought to be required of it this sea-
son. Lay it on its ide in the cellar
until late in the fall, then bring it into
the light and warmth, repot fer
tilize it. The other plant is an
azalea. To keep the blossoms fresh
stand the plant in a cool room. After
1t has finished blooming treat it the
same as prescribed for the poinscttia.

THE DASH OF COLOR.

Every person knows the value OF a
dash of color, but it takes a true artist
to know just where the color or pre-
dominant tint should be displayed.
Quite often it is on a hat, again there
is a bow at the neck or a chou al the
waist line.
1t cannot ho detailed in gloves, collar
or belt. A woman faultlessly attired in
black and a large black hat wore ba-
~nana-colored kid gloves.
The two dashes of bright color de-
stroyed the otherwise lovely effect. A
colored belt will do the same. Almost
always can one wear a colored DOW OF
iabot while, perhaps, a separate collar
directs the attention to a somewhat
angular~throat.

RAINWATER FOR THE SKIN.


Since the days of Cleopatra rainwater
has been considered the best of eosmet-
les for the complexion. and a walk in
the rain is of more aid to the face than
a quantity of medicines.
Not only the contact with the fresh
water, but also the danipness of the
atmosphere, thoroughly cleanses the
tissues, effacing from the skin all the
wrinkles formed by heat or worry.
Long maps and walks are also hene-
fetal.
