CONTINUED from Saturday.

Half an hour later a mass of rock
rolled down close to his feet and a few
moments after he saw a shadowy hu-
man form crawling through the hole
it had left. A second followed. and
hen a third-and the first voice he
heard was that of Macdonald.
"Give US the lantern, Bucky,' he
called back, and a CLEAN of light shot
into the black chamber. The men
walked cautiously toward the fuse, and
Rowland saw the little superintendent
fall on his knees.
What in hell" he heard him ex-
claim, and then there was a silence.
himself to the entrance and made a
clatter among the rocks. 1t was he
who responded to the voice.
Whats up, Macdonald"
He coolly Joined the little group.
Macdonald looked up and when he saw
the new chief bending over him his
eyes stared in ~unbounded wonder.
"Howland!" he gasped.
It was all he said, but in that one
word and in the strange excitement
in the superintendent's face How
land read tina which made him turn
quickly to the men, giving them his
first command as general-in-chief OF
the road that was going to the bay.
Get out of the coyote. boys" he
said. I'VE won't do anything more
until morning"
To Macdonald, as the men went out
ahead Of them, he added in a low voice:
Guard the entrance to this tunnel
with half a dozen Of our best men to-
night, Macdonald. 1 know things
which will lead me to investigate this
tomorrow. I'm going to leave you as
soon as I get outside. Spread the re-
port that it was simply a bad fuse.
Understand
He crawled out ahead of the superin-
tendent, and before Macdonald had
emerged from the coyote he had al
ready lost himself in the starlit gloom
of the night and was Fastening to his
tryst with the beautiful girl, who, he
believed, would reveal to him at least
a part of one of the strangest and most
diabolical plots that had ever origt-

TWO COLD WEATHER RULES.


The golden rule in chilly weather is
to keep the extremities warm, and he
first and most important rules for
carrying 1t out is never to be tightly
shod. Boots and shoes that At tightly
prevent the free circulation of the blood
by pressure, but when, on h contrary,
says Health, they do not embrace the
foot too firmly, the space left between
the shoe and the stocking has a good
supply of warm air.
The second rue is never to sit in
damp shoes. 1t is often supposed that
unless shoes are positively wet, 1t is
unnecessary to change them while the
feet are at rest. This is one of the
great f~allacies, for when the least
,dampness is absorbed into the sole, in
its evaporation 1t absorbs the heat from
the foot, and thus perspiration is dan
gerously checked. Fl

A DAINTY NOVELTY.

A dainty novelty is the broom PIN
cushion. For this is required a large,
fiat cork, a meat skewer and a few
yards of baby ribbon. the latter in
some bright shade. Cut a small hole
In the cork and insert the skewer
firmly. Then wind skewer and cork to-
gether with the ribbon until they are
entirely covered. Two bows on the
skewer hold the ribbon tight so far.
The broom effect is gained by pins;
they are driven thickly into the under
side of the cork, holding the ribbon at
hat point and at the same time giving
a very good imitation Of a tiny metal
broom. These dainty little articles
make very acceptable favors at in
formal parties, club meetings, etc.

from the white ones before going on to
the next process.
When the crumbs feel dry pass them
through a sieve, and when cold put
them in cans, carefully labelling as
white Crumbs" Light Brown"
Brown" as the case may be, as some
are suitable for one purpose and some
for another.
The two former will be useful for
coating outlets, fish, ETC., or for pud-
dings, while the last will do for au
gratin dishes, etc.
Now for the crusts: Break them into
small pieces and dry them in the oven
until they are nicely crisped and a
pretty tint.
Keep some whole for serving with
soup or cheese, n pound the rest
either in a mortar or with a fiatiron.
Then sift them and keep in cans.

THE MENU RECIPES.
PLAIN OmeIet.

and put In a tablespoonful Of butter,
beat six eggs until light and pour into
the frying pan. Let 1t cook until al
most done through; then with a knife
double one-half over on the other half
and let cook for a moment longer. In
transferring from the frying pan to the
dish on which 1t is to be served hold
the frying pan in the left hand, slip a
knife under the lower end of the ONE
let, lift a little, give the pan a little
shake, and the omelet will be on the
dish in good shape. An omelet can be
equally well cooked by putting in the
oven and baking. instead OF frying.

UTILIZING STALE BREAD.

How to use up stale bread is q puz-
cling problem in most households.
First procure a sieve; it iced not be
one with a very fine mesh Rub all
the crumb part of h bread through
the sieve, putting any that is too hard
or stale on one side.
Put the crumbs in clean, dry bak-
ing tins in a slow oven, and dry them
carefully; they must be turned about
occasionally.
The idea is to keep them as white as
possible, but II some of the crumbs
happen to get colored separate them
