Captain" logan Slosson, who up
to this had taken no part in the con-
versation, when are you going to
cross to t'other side OF the bayou?"
Soon" replied Murrell. Slosson
laughed.

to say that 10 one thinks higher or
more frequent of the ladies than just
me; I'm genuinely fond OF EN-, and
I've never lifted my hand ag'in 'em
except in kindness" Mr. SlossOn
looked at Ware with an exceedingly
virtuous expression OF countenance.
He continued: "Yo' orders are that
we're to slip out OF this little afore
midnight, but suppose there's hitch
here's the lady knowing what she
knows and here's the boy knowing
what he knows"
There can be no hitch,-- rasped out
Murrel arrcgantly.
Il never knew speculation that.
couldn't go wrong; and by rights we
should have got away last night
We'll, whose fault Is it you didnt?"
demanded Murrell.
In manner it were mine, but the
ark got on sandbank as we were
fetching it in and it took us the whole
damn night to get clear"
"Well?" prompted Murrell, with a
sullen frown
Suppose they get shut of that no
ton OF theirs that the lady's done
drowned herself; suppose they take to
watching the river? Or suppose the
whole damn bottom drops out OF this
deal? What then? The lady, good
looking as she is, knows enough to

OF your bungling, joe"
That's all right, but you don't all.
swer my question: persisted Slosson,
with admirable tenacity OF purpose.
What is your question, Joe?"
"A lot can happen between this and
midnight"
II things go wrong with US there'li

Does that satisfy you?"
And what them"
Murrell hesitated.
What about the grip" insisted
Slosson, dragging him back to the
point at issue between them. AS a
man l wouldn't lift my hand ag'in no
good looking woman except, like |
said, in kindness; but she can't be
turned loose; she knows too much.
What's the word, Captain-you say
it," he urged. He made a gesture OF
appeal to Ware.
Look for the light; better still,
look for the man I'll send" And with
this. Murrell would have turned away,
but Slosson detained him.
Who'll he be?"
Some fellow who knows the river"
And if it's the light?" asked the
tavern-keeper in hoarse undertOne.
Again he looked toward Ware, who,
dry-lipped and ashen, was regarding
him steadfastly. Glance met glance,
for brief instant they looked into
each others eyes and then the hand
Slosson had rested on Murrells
shoulder dropped at his, side.

Let you go-ask me anything but
that, Betty! Have you no reward for

There was the noisy shutting of
feet on the stairs and releasing Bet
w, Murrell swung about On his heel
and faced the door. 1t was pushed
open an inch at time by not 100
confident hand and Mr. Slosson thus
guardedly presented himself to the
eye of his chief, whom he beckoned
from the room.
'Well?" said Murrell, when they
stood together on the landing.
Just come across to the keel
noat!" and Slosson led the way down
stairs and from the house.
Damn you, Joe, you might have
waited" observed the outlaw. Slos-
,son gave him hardened grin. They
crossed the clearing and boarded the
Keel boat which rested against the
bank. AS they did so the cabin in
the stern gave up shattered pres

added.
Hicks raised the alarm the first
thing this morning, according to the
instructions I'd given him.
"Yes?" gasped Ware. He was drip
ping from every pore and the sickly
color came and went on his unshaven
cheeks. Murrell dropped a heavy
hand on his shoulder.
You haven't been at Belle Plain,
sou say, but has any one seen you on
the road this morning."

MINT HINTS.
Mint saaee is eeffeet with
roast lamb. Very few persons
may know that it adds to tasti=
ness of any rather tasteless fish
To make it, take enough green
mint to make two tablespoons
when etit in little bits. Potif gvef
it a cup Of vinegar. Season with
sugar Until the sharpness Of the
vinegar is iessened without the
sauce being sweet. Determine
this by testing: Keep hot and
serve hot. The sauce may also be
made with the dry mint.

fresh mint leaves. Pour In vine

FIGHTING PESTS IN GARDENS
Larger Squash Bugs Found Harder to
Control Than Other Insects
Treatment Differs.

All of US are bothered more or less,
with injurious insect pests in the gar
den, and with dealing with them the
first thing to be determined is wheth-
er they are chewing or sucking in
sects, whether they eat the leaf or
extract its sap. There must be en-
tirely different treatment employed in
the two cases.
The chewing insects are compare
lively easy to get rid of, unless they
are working on the foliage, which will
be injured by the application Of a
poison strong enough to kill the in
sects.
The sucking insects insert their bills
through the skin of the leaf or stem
that they are feeding on, so as to ex'
tract the juice, therefore no matter
how much poison is applied to the sur
face, the insects get none of it.
For the striped beetle, which is de-
structive to squash, cucumber and
melon vines, slight application of
lime, tobacco dust, plaster, or ashes,
will be found a good preventive, and
will also drive away those which may
have already appeared. Sometimes,
however, the ashes will burn the TO-
liage if rain falls soon after they are
applied, so on the whole lime, and
plaster, or tobacco dust are better for
the purpose, says a writer in the Farm
Progress. Some keep healthy bunch
of onions growing in each hill, bruising
the leaves occasionally, SO as to hide
the smell of the vines from the beet
les.
The larger squash bugs have been
the most troublesome and the hard
est to deal with in our garden. They
are sap suckers, and there is nothing

Imported Potatoes.

The secretary of agriculture warns
American farmers against using i'm
ported potatoes for home production.
Europe has several potato diseases
not known to this country and there
is danger Of introducing these dis
eases if the imported product is used
for seed. The foreign-growns are all
right for table use, but for cultivation
they carry no little risk.
