How to Clean Ivory,

Wash ivory ornaments in soap and
water, using a soft brush tC remove
the dust from any fine work there
may be upon them. Dry by laying
them in the sunshine, keeping them
constantly wet with soapy water for
several days while they are in the sun.
Finally wash and rinse them again.
Never let them dry or the heat will
cause the ivory to warp. If the ivory
Is stained, but not deeply, rub the
surface with finely ground pumice
stone and water: moisten we'll and lay
in the sun to bleach. If this does not
succeed wash knife handles or any
other articles with one part OF nitric
acid and ten parts of water. Polish
with finely powdered whiting made
into Il paste with vinegar. To bleach
ivory discolored by age and handling
expose to the sun under glass-the di-
rect action of the sun will tend to
crack it-Or place on strips of zinc in
vessel, cover with spirits of turpen-
tine and expose to the sun. 1t is not
necessary that this should be done
under glass.

Johnny King is the latest one who
is anxious to try his skill in a match
with Alfred De Orc, the present holder
of the worlds pool title. The famous
catcher of the Chicago Nationals
claims he is in better shape than ever
and would surely defeat the great Gu
ban if given the opportunity. Since
the close of the baseball season he has
been practicing every day and has
made some remarkably big runs. King
held the pool title last year for few
months, but lost it to Tommy Hues-
ton. This fall he was elected presi-

For Hours He Trod Steadily Through
the Sand.

boat the path would take him to it.
Through d break in the trees he
caught the green sweep Of marsh
rice and his heart beat eXcitedly with
hope. Where there was rice there
were wild fowl, and surely where
there were wild fowl there would be
a punt or a canoe. In his eagerness
he ran, and where the path ended, the
flags and rice beaten into the mud and
water, he stopped with an eXuitant
cry. At his feet was canoe. 1t was
wet, as though just drawn out OF the
water, and a freshly used paddle was
lying across the bow. Pausing but to
take a quick and cautious glance
about him he showed the frail craft
into the lake and with a few quiet
strokes buried himself in the rice
grass. When he emerged from it he
was half a milo from the shore.
For a long time he sat motionless,
looking out over the shimmering sea.
Far to the south and west he could
make out the dim outline of Beaver
island, while over the trail he had
come, mile upon mile, lay the glisten-
ing dunes Somewhere between the
white desert sand and that distant
coast of the Mormon kingdom Marion
was making her way back to bondage.
Nathaniel had given up all hope OF
overtaking her now. Long before he
could intercept her she would have
reached the island. When he started
again he padded slowly, and laid out
for himself the plan that he was to
follow There must be no mistake this
time, no error in judgment, no rash
ness in his daring He would lie in
hiding until dusk, and then under
cover of darkness he would hunt down
Strang and kill him. After that he
would fly to his canoe and escape. A
little later, perhaps that very night il
fate played the game we'll for him, he
would return for Marion,
The sun mounted straight and hot
over his head; he padded more slow
| ly, and rested more frequently, as il
| descended into the west, but it still
lacked two hours Of sinking behind
the island forest when the white wa
ter-rim of the shore came within his
vision. He had meant to hold off the
coast until the approach Of evening
but changed his mind and landed, con
cealing his canoe in a spot which he
marked we'll, for he knew it would
soon be useful to him again. Deer
shadows were already gathering in the
forest and through these Nathanie
made his way slowly in the direction
Of ST. James.
He came out in the strip of dens'
forest between the clearing and st
James, worming his way cautiousl,
through the underbrush until he coult
look out into the opening. A singh

as though his touch was about to fall
upon some fragile flower, he drew the
| girl to him, took her beautiful face
between his two strong hands and
gazed steadily and silently for a mo-
ment into her eyes.
God bless you, little Winnsome!'
he whispered. 81 hope that some day
you will-forgive me-
The girl understood him.
IF have anything to forgive-you
are forgiven
The pistol dropped upon the sand,
her hands stole to his shoulders.

Marion for me-" she whispered softly
''This."
And she kissed him.
Her eyes shone upon him like a
benediction.
you have given me new life, you
have given Mcneil! My prayers
are with you
And kissing him again, she slipped
away from under his hands before he
could speak.
And Nathaniel, following her with
his eyes until he could no longer see
her, picked up the pistol and set Off
again toward the forest, the touch OF
her lips and the prayers Of this girl
whose father he had slain filling him
with something that was more than
strength, more than hope.
He examined the pistol that VIM
some had given him. There were five
shots in it and he smiled joyously as
he saw that it had been loaded by an
experienced hand. 1t would be easy
enough for MIN to find Strang.
For hours he trod steadily through
the sand The sun rose above him,
hot and blistering, and the dunes still

Dare to Be Happy.

Let us never be afraid of innocent
joy; God is good and what he does is
well done; resign yourself to every
thing, even to happiness; ask for the
spirit of sacrifice, Of detachment, of re-
nunciation, and above all, for the spirit
of joy and gratitude, that genuine and
religious optimism which sees in God
a Father, and asks no pardon for his
benefits. We must dare to be happy
and dare to confess it, regarding our.
selves always as the repositories, not
as the authors of our own joy

to habitual constipation, probably be-
cause of their false modesty on the sub
ject, that their attention cannot be too
strongly called to the Importance Of keep
ing the bowels open. 1t is always impor-
tant to do that, regardless Of the sex, but
it is especially important in women.
From the time the girl begins to men,
struate until menstruation ceases she has
always vastly better prospects of coming

Up to six weeks ago Mr.. Mckenzie

CHAPTER XII.
Marion Freed From Bondage.

Marion Freed From Bondage.
"Gone!" moaned Winnsome again.
"She has gone-back-to- Strang!"
Neil was crawling to them like a
wounded animal across the sand.
She started toward him but Nathan
iel stopped her
She is the king s-wife-"
His throat was swollen SO that he
could hardly speak.
NO. They are to be married to-
night. Oh, thought she was going to
stay" She tore herself away from
him to go to Neil, who had fallen upon
his face exhausted, dozen yards
away.
In the wet sand, where the incom-
ing waves Tapped his hands and feet,
Nathaniel sank down, his eyes staring
out into the shimmering distance
where Marion had gone. His brain
was in a daze, and he wondered if he
had been stricken by some strange
madness-if this all was but some
passing phantasm that would soon
leave him again to his misery and his
despair. But the dash of the cold wa
ter against him cleared away his
doubt. Marion had come to him. She
had saved him from death. And now
she was gone.
And she was not the kings wife!
He staggered to his feet again and
plunged into the lake until the water
reached to his waist. calling her name,
eDtreating her in weak, half choked
cries to come back to him. The wa
ter soaked through to his hot, numb
body. restoring his reason and
strength. and he buried his face in it
and drank like one who had been near
to dying of thirst. Then he returned
to Neil. Winnsome was holding his
head in her arms.
He dropped upon his knees beside
them and saw that life was returning
full and strong in Neils face.

minutes" he said. You and VIM
