great tracts of logged-off lands, from

The productiveness of the soil of
such land is almost unbelievable.
The stumps must be removed, but
with modern methods this can be done
at so low a figure that the total cost
of the soil ready for the pillow is much
less than for some tracts now upon the

been wooded.

His blood leaped through him like fire.
He knew that the girl had recognized
the yoices-that they who were about
to pass him were the mysterious enc
mics against whom she had warned
him Perhaps they were the two who
had attacked him on the Great North
Trail. His muscles grew tense. The
girl could feel them straining under
her hands. could feel his body grow
rigid and alert. His hand fell again
on his revolver; he made a step past
her, his eyes flashing. his face as set
as Iron. Almost sobhing. she pressed
herself againt his breast, holding him
back.
"Don't-don't-don't-" she whis-
pered.

him. Her lips were smiling at
him. and In that smile there was
gentle accusation, the sweetness OF for
~giveness. and he could see that with
these there had come also a flush into
her cheeks and a dazzling glow into
her eyes.
"They are gone" she said trem-
hlingly.
Yes: they are gone"
He stood looking down into her glow
ing face in silence. Then, They are

"Yes-that m~uch-now. It is Me-

"MeIeese."
The name fell from him sharply. In

Uses for Paper Plaster

A USEFUL and durable thing for decoration is paper plaster, which can
~ be used n large II small surfaces say a writer in the Womans Home
. - Companion Take old newspapers and tear them into vey small pieces.
Put a mas of them in a tub o. water and allow them to soak ovr night
In the morning nut the whole mas through the neat-choppe. Vet 1t again
SO as to make 1t phable like plaster Practise modelling tn paper into differ
mt shapes While it is in this state, but remember, Of course, that it will not
be permanently cohesive. After % ave learned to handle the pulp mix it
with a htteg glue. 1t will remain soft for some days and al be nodded with
tut haste, but as time goes o the nodded plaster will become hard.
Old glass bottles may be covered with the plaster and decorated in n
way that you may fancy. Wen-shaped jars may be decorated with designs of
fruit or flowers When TIL pulp dries, it takes IN an attractive bronzy color
without treatment If any sort. Soft brown or green dyes may be worked in
with the plaster, however, and produce charming effects.
Glove or handkerchief cases may b q made from ordinary wooden boxes
For a handkerchief-case,c cover a cigar box with the paper pulp, working in
some simple and appropriate design, piDching It and modelling inos shape
For this purpose use a narrow paper knife and make the more delicate touehes
with the hattened end - ar orange stick. Pad and line the inside Of the box
with silk
Very pretty bas-reHef effects may be made with the plaster. 1t may wen
be used in executing low-rehef wall designs for borders or FREEZES If you wish
a conventional design or figure, u u as many patterns of h same desgn
a you will need for the space to be covered. Paste these securely o n the sur
face to re decorated and mold the pulp over them Keeping the pulp neatly
within the lines will insure accuracy and uniformity. When the design is
modelled the pulp may he colored with water-coors dabbed oil with a sponge
or with q large soft brush.

WASHING WINDOWS.


Do not put soap into the water with
which windows are to be washed. A
little borax or household ammonia may
be added. Use very little water. Wipe
off the window-casing with a dry cloth
and rub 1t over the glass as well before
you begin to wash. This removes the
dust, which would otherwise streak the
a The cloth should be well wrung
out before II is applied to the glass, and
this should be rubbed dry at once. A
small quantity of kerosene added to the
water gives a polish to the glass, and
in winter a little alcohol in the water
keeps 1t from freezing on the pane. Old
newspapers rubbed soft in the hands
are admirable for giving the glass a
final polish.-Woman's Home Com
