Whats the matter? We amt goin'
to move, are we?"
Yes. Well make for one of the
other canneries," answered Emerson,
without looking up.
But I've got sore feet" complained
the ~adventurer.
skeptically. Better walk on your
hands for a while"
And it's getting dark, too"
Never mind. 1t can't be far. Come
now"
He urged the fellow as he had re-
peatedly urged him before, for Fraser
seemed to hav the blood of a tramp in
his veins; then he tried to question the
woman, but she maintained a fright
ened silence. When they had finished
their coffee Emerson laid two silver
dollars on the table, and they left the
house to search out the river trail
again.
The early darkness. fastened by the
storm, was upon them when they crept
up the opposite bank an hour later,
and through the gloom beheld a group
of great shadowy buildings. Approach
ing the solitary CLEAN of light shining
from the window of the watchman's
house. they applied to hin for shelter.
I'VE are just off a long trip, and our
dogs are played out" Emerson ex-
planned. 'We'll pay well for a place
to rest"
You can't stop here" said the fell
low grufily.
why not?"
Eve got no ROOM"
"Is there a road-house near by?"

You'd better find out mighty quick
retorted the young man; with rising
temper at the others discourtesy.
TRY the next place below" said the
Waterman, hurriedly, slamming the
door in their faces and boiling it. Once
secure behind his barricade, he added.
IF he won't let you in, maybe the
priest can take care Of you at the
mission"
This here town of Kalvik Is GER
tainly overjoyed at our arrival" said
Fraser, "ain't it?"
But his irate companion made no
comment, whereat, sensing the anger
behind his silence, the speaker, for
once, failed to extemporize an answer
to his own remark.
At the next stop they encountered the
same gruff show of inhospitality, and
all they could elicit from the shock

ton, in broken English, to try the
Russian priest.
"Tll make one more try said Elmer
son, between his teeth, gratingly, as
they swung out into the darkness a
second time. IF that doesn't succeed,

THE buck will certainly show us to
the straw said "Fingerless'' Fraser.
THE what?"
""The '~buck'-the sky-dog-oh, the
priest!'
But when, a mile further on, they
drew up before a white pile surm6unted
by a dimly discerned Greek cross, no
sign of life was to be cen and their
signals awakened no response.
"Gone!-and they knew it,"
The vicious name in which Emer-
son handled his whip as he said the
words betrayed his state of mind. Three
weeks of unvarying hardship and toll
some travel had worn out both men,
and rendered them well-nigh desperate.
Hence they wasted no words when,
for the fourth time, their eyes caught
the welcome sight of a shining radt-
ance In the gloom of the gathered
night. The trail-weary team stopped
of its own accord.
"Unhitch!' ordered Emerson, dog
gedly, as he began to unite the ropes
of the sled. He shouldered the sleep
ing-bags, and made toward h light
that filtered through the crusted win
dows. followed by Fraser similarly
burdened. But as they approached
they saw at once that this was no
cannery; it looked more like a road
house, or trading-post, for the struc-
ture was low and it was built of logs.
Behind and connected with 1t by a
covered hall or passageway crouched
another squat building of the same
character, it's roof piled thick with a
mass of snow, its windows glowing.
Those warm squares of light, set into
the black walls and o%verhung by white
burdened caves, gave the place the APP
pearance of a Christmas-card, it was
so snug Inc cozy. Even the glitter was
there, caused by the rays ~refracted
from the facets of the myriad FROST
crystals.
They mounted the steps of the nigh
building, and, without knocking, flung
the door open, entered, then tossed their
bundles on the floor. With a sharp ex-
clamation at this unceremonious in
trusion, an Indian woman, whom they
had surprised, dropped her task and
regarded them. round-eyed.

China silk is much liked.
Challis is again in evidence.
French flannel is a favored fabric.
Many elaborate ones are accordion

Printed borders are pretty. Violets

A rosy satin, Persian bordered, looks
quite like a wrap.
A beauty is printed all over in an
autumn leaf design.
An edition de luxe is over-draped
with exquisite chiffon.
They are as voluminous as other
dresses are scant.

To Remove Shellac.
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear Miss Doom:
/ have a dark blue cloth dress with
dark blue stripes in 1t. Some shellac
fell on my dress and I put some BEN
soine on it. but as 1t did not come out
1 used wood alcohol, The wood alcohol
left a grayish, stiff stain, which l would
like to get out. Could you please tell
me what to do? ANXIOUS.
Also, would you kindly tell me how
to make potato salad.
To remove the shellac from your dress
soak the spot in turpentine (taking care
that the fluid does not come in contact
with the stove). After washing thor
oughly with the turpentine, if the spot
still remains, sponge the cloth with
ether or ch%loroform.
To make potato salad, take four large
potatoes, one-half of a small onion, a
little celery chopped fine If the pota-
toes have been boiled in their jackets
they are better. The dressing consists
of one cupful of cream, n tablespoon
full of c~ornstarch, one egg, two table
spoonfuls of butter, three tablespoons
full of vinegar, one-half teaspoonful of
dry mustard. one teaspoonful of sugar,
salt and pepper to taste.

A GOOD LISTENER.

We are all supposed to agree that
next to being a good talker' 1t is a
desirable merit to be an Intelligent
listener" but we are never told what
are the signs OF mental activity which
denote silent intelligence. Women. es-
pecially, are often induced to pose as
good listeners when they have only
sufficient art to talk moderately bright
ly and lucidly. The woman who has
the receptive capacity in a high degree
nearly always appeals to men, and in
variably talks to her own sex with
something more than common sense.

RaIzac's Analysis of HimseIf

Tn letter to his friend the Duchesse d'Abrantes Balzac analysed his own personality. My character" wrote the famous French novelist, Ifs the most singular one I have ever como across. I study myself as might an other person. I comprise in my i've feet two every ineoherence, every con- trast. possible. and those who think me vain, prodigal. headstrong, frivolous, inconsistent, foppish. careless idle. un- stable, giddy, wavering. talkatiye. tact- less. i'll bred. impolite, crotchety, hu- morsome. will be just as right as those who might affirm me to be thrifty, modest, plucky, tenacious, energetic, hardworking, constant, taciturn, cute, polite, merry. Nothing astonishes me more than myself am inclined to conclude am the plaything of circum- stances. Does this kaleidoscope result from the fact that into the soul of those who claim to paint all the adec- dons of the human heart chance casts each and every of these same affec- tions in order that by the strength of their imagination they may feel what they depict? And can 1t be that ob- servation is only sort of memory proper to aid this mobile imagination7 I begin to be of this opinion"

 What! Do you dare to look me in the face and insinute that she is never likely to be able to sing?"
 tT am very sorry. sir, but if you will compel me to speak the truth it is as you say"
 'Then why the mischief have you been letting her come here for two years and hand you my good money in return for your lessons?"
 Because l have wished to serve you, sir. Whenever tell young ladies they can't sing they go to teacher on the floor below, and he charges 50 cents a lesson more than I get. You can figure for yourself what I have saved you on three lessons a week for two years" New York World.

merce law as 1t stands. do not now recommend any amendment to the antitrust law.
 In other words. it seems to me that the existing legislation with reference to the regulation of corporations and the restraint of their business has reached point where we can stop for awhile and witness the effect of the vigorous execution of the laws on the statute books in restraining the abuses which certainly did exist and which reused the public to demand reform.
 If this test develops a need for fur ther legislation, well and good, but un- til then let us execute what we have. Due to the reform movements of the present decade, there has undoubtedly been a great improvement in business methods and standards and in the earnestness of effort on the part of business men to comply with the law. They are now seeking to know the ex- act limitations upon business methods imposed by the law, and these will doubtless be made clearer by the de cisions of the supreme court in cases pending before it.
 believe it to be in the interest of all the people of the country that for the time being the activities of govern ment, in addition to enforcing the ex- isting law, be directed toward the economy of administration and the en- larcement of opportunities for foreign posed upon railroad agents and ship pers for fraud or misrepresentation in connection with the issue of bills of lading issued upon interstate and for eign shipments
 Except as above, I do not recommend any amendment to the interstate corn- trade the conservation and improve ment of our agricultural lands, the building up of home industries and the strengthening of confidence of capital in domestice investment.
