Lord Jocelyn, having assisted. his
future mother-in-law into her seat,
finding that Evelyn fingered, went
back in search Of her. He had as
cended to the head of the fight on
which Torelli had his studio, when
he was suddenly rendered dumb by
what he saw through the half-opened
door.
For Evelyn Squires lay like a dead
weight in the painters arms, and he
was showering kisses upon her
cheeks and lips.

Even as he turned away Lord Joce.

that for a single gown.

CASABA MELONS ARE
GROWN IN VALLEY

Casaba melons are being grown IN
quantity in the EI Paso valley. J. N.
Morrison has some on exhibition in
his office. They are known as the
Khiva melon and the seed was brought
from Russia
Elmer Stearns, professor at the
Juarez Agricultural college, distribut-
ed the seeds. He has also brought
seeds from different parts Of the old
world and distributed they through
the PecOs and Mimbres valleys.
These melons make good hog and
stock feed, and one district in Spain
raises $4,000 tons annually which are
shipped to the northern markets of
Europe
Farmers who have planted the seeds
IN the El Paso and other southwest
ern districts are to send some Of their
products TO FL PasO to be placed on
exhibition in various store windows

work in the city and has often asked
for the cooperation of church organi-

of women who seek work. Some are
sent to homes where maids or laun-
