But 1t was he himself who brok the
silence with a natural, matter-of-fact
question. You say a searching party

They set out only a little after sun
rise. We came into the bay with the

mortal.
She watched him. silently, while he
slipped the steel-jointed rods into place,
drew the catgut bow strings taut. until
they sang-until the fabric of his planes
shimmered in the starlight-quivered,
as if they were instinct with a life of
their own.
A sense of the unhealthy of it all came
yelling up strongly within her and a
touch of an almost forgotten fear of
him.
Good night" she said, holding cut
her hand-"good-bye."
It'll morning." he answered.
A little breeze came blowing across
the ice just then. He dropped her hand
quickly, slipped his arms into their
place in the frame, mounted the ledge
of ice n then, with a short run,
sprang forward into the breeze.
She saw his planes bend a little, un-
duiate, rather, with a sort of seulIing
motion, as he few forward, not far
above the level of her head. He dipped
down again as soon as he had D

speed, he began mounting. on a long
slant, in that great starry, domelike
sky. until. at last, the darkness swaI-
lowed him.
She felt ~euriously alone now that he
was gone: and a little frightened, like
q child just waking out of a dream.
And she blew a small silver whistle
that hung about her neck, for a sig
nal to the men on the yacht TO send
a boat for her.
Then, while she waited. she dropped
down rather Imply on her pile of bear
skins. Her hand found something hard
that had not been there before. and
taking it up she found that it was a
curious blunt stick OF wood. rudely
whitfield, and about ten inches long.

he sat there talking to her. She won

BALDH EADEDMEN
Ignorance of The Hair Causes Much
Badness Among Men.

Early piety doesn't cause badness.
neither does any kind of piety. Some
baldheaded men console themselves
with the idea that badness Is caused
by superabundance of gray brain
matter, and would have the world be-
lieve that a baldhead is a sign of
great intellect.
Such, however, is not the case.
Ninety-nine times in enc hundred,
badness is caused by dandruff germs
which dig down deep into the roots
of the hair, destroy its vitality and
cause it to fall out.
All this may come gradually and
take time, but as an up-to-date humor-
list would say whats time to a dan
druff GERM"
If you have dandruff, the little in
visible, persistent devils called dan
druff germs are at work Destroy
them at once, or sooner or later they
will cause your hair to fall out and
you will be compelled to take your
place in the baldheaded class.

WIDOW IN AUTO OFF
WITH DISPUTED CASH

Salt Lake City, Nov. 9.-According
to an affidavit filed in the United
States Court here there is a million
dollars worth of securities in an au-
tomobile en- route from here to Seat
tie. In the automobile are Mrs. Ale
thea Walker, widow of David y.
Walker, her two children, Clarence
and Margaret Smoot Walker, and a
chauffeur.
Mrs. Sarah A. Paul, another daugh-
ter of the late San Mateo millionaire,
is the affiant. After her fathers
death she contested the will, which
left most of the estate to the widow,
on the ground of undue influence
through pretended powers of clair
voyance. The court was asked to
enjoin Mrs. Walker and her children,
from removing the Walker wealth
from this jurisdiction. An order to
this effect was issued and served on
two of the defendants. Clarence
Walker could not be found. Later it
was reported that the automobile
party had passed through Pocatello,
Idaho, en- route to Seattle. On Mrs.
Paul's affidavit Judge Marshall cited
the widow and children to appear
within ten days and show cause why
they should not be punished for con-
tempt.

Local ORGANIZATIONS.

There is growing tendency in thu
country" said Mr.. Ransdell, ito built
up strong local organizations every
where which is a magnificent thing il
itself provided these enthusiasts do
not overlook the fact that their local
projects cannot be carried through
unless the great national policy Of
their parent organization be adopted
by the federal congress.
"The work that the National Rivers
and Harbors Congress has been doing
has been a work of love and yet it
needs the help of local organizations
as it does of trade bodies as well as
individuals to make it as it aims to be.
nationally educational in character.
The forthcoming convention should
be the largest in our history, for there
is yet much to be done before a ma
tional policy of waterway improve
nents is written into the statute books.
We have yet much to yield and much
to acquire before we realize our aims
and every organization of whatever
character should lend hand in the
work we have been doing to the end
that sporadic appropriations for widely
separated projects may be abandoned
and that the coming river and harbor
bill be modelled along national rather
than local lines"
