CHAPTER XIII.

Tho castaways of the Mountains.
The man was evidently seeking her.
for so soon as he caught sight of heI
he broke into a run and came bound
ing up the steep ascent with the speed
and agility of chamois or mountain
sheep. As he approached the girl
rose to her feet and supported herself
upon the boulder against which she
had been leaning, at the same time ex-
tending her hand to greet him.
"Oh," she cried, her voice rising
neryous1y as he drew near, Il am so
glad you are back, another hour of
loneliness and believe should have
gone crazy"
Now whether that joy in his return
was for him personally or for him alb
stractly, he could not tell; whether
she was glad that he had come back
simply because he was human being
who would relieve her loneliness or
whether she rejoiced to see him indi-
vidually, was matter not yet to be
determined. He hoped the latter, he
believed the former. At any rate, he
caught and held her outstretched
hand in the warm clasp of both his
own. Burning words of greeting
rushed to his lips torrentially; what
he said, however, was quite common
place, as is often the case. Word
thought and outward speech did not
correspond.
tits too cold for you out here, you
must go into the house at once" he
declared masterfully, and she obeyed
with unwonted meekness.
The sun had set and the night air
had grown suddenly chill Still hold
ing her hand, they started toward the
cabin few rods away Her wounded
foot was of little support to her and
the excitement had unnerved her, in
spite of his hand she swayed; without
thought he caught her about the
waist and half lifted, half led her to
the door. 1t seemed as natural as it
was inevitable for him to assist her in
this way. and In her weakness and be.
wilderment she suffered it without
comment or resistance. Indeed, there
was such strength and power in his
arm, she was SO secure there, that she
liked 1t. As for him, his pulses were
bounding at the contact; but for that
matter even to look at her quickened
his heart beat.
Entering the main room, he led her
gently to one Of the chairs near the
table and Immediately thereafter light
ed the fire which he had taken the
precaution to lay before his departure

So that was the measure Of his iso-

he meant to tell her nothing.
''Well?" she asked, breaking the

Il did. The trail had been washed

all who were in the camp were saved.

5000 WAGON TAGS
ARRIVE AT LAST
Lost, Side Tracked, or Stolen for
Six Months on Way to the
District Building.

The lost has been found at last After
a delay OF more than six months. sup
ply Of 5000 wagon tags has reached the
District Building. AS a result the Com
missioners yesterday issued an order
compelling all horse-drawn vehicles to
display tags.
On June q, 1911, an order was issued
providing for the tagging of all horse
drawn vehicles. and lO,0O0 metal plates
were ordered. The tags reached the Dis
trict Building in July and were rapidly
disposed of. The Commissioners had
made provision for the order to become
effective August !. but on that day the
last tag in stock was issued.
On August the Commissioners issued
an order temporarily suspending their
previous order until the arrival of a new
supply Of tags. The contract was award
ed early in September to tire Baltimore
Enamel Novelty Company. A month and
then two months passed and the tags
failed to arrive. DIR. William Tindall. Sec

ward, District permit clerk
Finally bill of lading reached the per-
init clerk, but when the freight station
was visited TO obtain the tags. they could
not be found. Since then the tags have
been surrounded by mystery. The Bal
timore firm contends the plates were
shipped about a month after the receipt
of the order. Tuesday the tags suddenly
made their appearance. Where they came
from is unknown to the District officials.
II is expected there will be a great
rush for tags to-day. as all persons driv-
ing horse-drawn vehicles without tags
are liable TO arrest.

DISTRICT WOMAN SEES DANGER
IN TREND OF"WOMAN MOVEMENT

After reading the District woman's
reply 10 Mr.. Waters I took down q book
by Frances Power Cobbe On the Duties
OF Women" and looked to see what she.
one OF the pioneers OF the best brand OF
fenlinisn. had mad 70 say about homes
and wives and progress, and how It COM
pared with suffrage ideas of the present.
Miss Jenkins praises the course of a
woman who, possessing n profession OF
her own, yet sUed her husband for dover
rights and alimony, while refusing him
communication with his child. She finds
the action full of noble independence and
lays stress on the self support" which
lifts the women of the present day above
marriages for maintenance"
Not Equality.
Frances Power Cobbe would have re-
garded with infinite scorn any such con-
ception Of equality. She knew that true
independence implied hardship and en-
oUrance-1ot a release from all duty on
one side and enforced obligations on the
other. Reversing an injustice is not aboI-
ishing Il.
Here Is what she says of home life and
the woman movement:

A Home Recipe for
Removing Wrinkles.
(Ffum Wonan's National Journal J

Who will blame the modern woman
for trying to look as young and at
tractive as she reasonably can? why
should she be placed at a disadvan-
tage in numerous ways by wearing
wrinkles. IL she can avoid these hate
full marks of advancing age?
Few women. however. know what to
do to effectually rid themselves of
wrinkles or sagginess. None OF the ad-
vertised preparations is satisfactory
and most of them are very expensive.
But a very simple and harmless home
remedy. which any woman can make,
will work wonders where all the pat
ent preparations fail
Buy an ounce of powdered saxolite
at any drug store. Dissolve the whole
ounce in a half pint of witch hazel
and use II as a wash lotion. The re-
suits are practically instantaneous.
Marked improvement is noticed i'm
mediately after the very first trial.
Wrinkles aud sagging are corrected
and the face feels so refreshed and
sInuE-like.

For the Bedroom.

Dainty bedroom accessories in the way
OF curtains, bedspread, bureau and
dresser scarfs can be easily made al
small cost of striped or checked ging-
ham.
Blue and white is a clean. cool color to
select.
For the bedspread use coarse white
lace insertion about an inch and a half
wide to join the oreadths together down
the center and also TO place at the head
ing Of ruffie eight inches wide that is
placed on each side and across the bot
tom Of the spread.
Shams for pillows are edged with mar
row insertion and a four-inch rufie. For
the bureau scarf use three tweIve-inch
squares of gingham, Joined and edged
with insertion.
The window curtains are made perfect-
ly plain, excepting for a ruffie across the
end headed with insertion. A deep
valance across the top is edged with a
narrow ruffle also. With a blue-and-
white cotton rug on the floor this makes
a most attractive room for a young girl.
Gingham is very inexpensive and Iaun-
ders beautifully.

the reasonable life that developed normal
desires in the children who spent their
years Of training for life there. II my

ended prokenly.
After little while of silence, she spoke
again.
"Extravagance and waste blot out the
nobler things of life. They make people
narrow and selfish and mean. They
dwarf the moral and spiritual life of
any child who grows up side by side
with them.
'Extravagance and waste; thieves of
peace; destroyers OF health; givers of
nothing that builds for eternity; foes TO
q comfortable old age; enemies Of child
hood: fritterers of time.
''Oh,' she cried, mo woman can walk
to the throne of God by the road Of
waste and extravagancef
And when I was home again i said
unto myself:
Better too little money than too much;
better too much work than miserable
idleness: better tho mother who teaches
her children the valve OF self-denial, the
pleasures that are without price and
priceless; better the pinch of poverty even
than extravaganza and waste"

doubt, dissipation Of childhood and a
loosening Of family ties whereof the evils
would be measureless. Let me entreat
you. while doing ali you can TO amend
the many and serious defects which cling
round our home system, TO lift no hand
TO break It down"
How fundamentally she would have dis
agreed with the modern suffragist with
her easy divorce bill, her scheme for
state nurseries, her contempt for marital
duty. and domestic life. In another place
Miss Cobbe says:

We hope everything will be all right,
