CHAPTER XII.

Instead of returning to the city on
Monday, Daylight rented the butchers
horse for another day and crossed the
bed of the valley to It's eastern hills.
AS on the previous day just for the
10y OF II. he followed cattle-trails at
haphazard and worked his way up to-
ward the SUBMITS. Coming out upon
wagon road that led upward. he fol-
lowed Il for several miles. emerging
in n small. mountain-encircled valley.
where half a dozen poor ranchers
iarmed the wineg grapes on the steep
slopes. Beyond. the road pitched up
ward Dense chaparral covered the
exposed hillsides. but in the creases
Of the canyons huge spruce trees
grew. and WILD oats and flowers.
Late In the afternoon he broke
through. and followed n well-defined
trail down dry canyon. The dry
canyon gave place to one with slen-
der ribbon OF running water. The
trail ran into wood-road. and the
wood.road emerged across small fiat
upon a slightly travelled country road
There we're no farms in this immedi-
ate section, and no houses. The soil
was meager. the bedrock either close
to the surface or constituting the sur

however, fiourished and walled the
road on either side with a jungle

WASHING SILK BLOUSE

eoap Jelly, Freshly Prepared, the Best
to Use-Some Minor Points, That
Mean Much, Well to Keep in
the Memory.

When the washing and ironing Of
silk is so easily done there is prob
ably nothing SO practical and useful as
the silk waists. When preparing to
wash silk waists separate them into
colors, putting the white ones alone.
Soap jelly is easily prepared. and is a
valuable help. 1t should not be kept
for longer than a week, as it soon
loses its strength.
Have ready three bowls of luke
warm water, and into two of them
place some of the soap jelly. In the
first bath plunge the waist. having the
right side uppermost. Squeeze the
soapy water gently through the fabric.
keeping 1t well under the water, and
paying special attention to the neck.
wristbands and armholes. When the
waist is well washed in the first water
squeeze the water out of it. Never
| wiring the garment. Turn it on the
wrong side and repeat the process of
washing in the second bath of soapy
water. Squeeze when well washed.
Shake and rinse in clean, warm wa
ter to remove the soap. Then rinse
in cold water. and II possible in rum
ming water. In order to make white
silk a good color rinse in blue water
Silk must be ironed while quite damp
or 1t will have rough, unfinished ap-
pearance. Use a moderately hot iron
and place piece of muslin between it
and the right side Of the silk. 1t has
been found that hot iron yellows
silk and gives crimped, rough ap-
pearance. Iron the silk to give it a
good gloss. Lace trimmings on the
waist should always be ironed on the
wrong side. as lace is never supposed
to have a gloss.

in San Francisco. But he liked the
ranch. and as soon as he got back to
the Office he would open up negotia

The time passed, and he played on
at the game San Franciscos atu-
tude toward Daylight had undergone
a change. While he. with his slashing
buccaneer methods, was a distinct
menace TO the more orthodox finan-
cial gamblers, he was nevertheless so
grave 4 menace that they were glad
enough to let him alone. He had al
ready taught them the excellence OF
letting a sleeping dog lie.
Dede Mason was still in the office.
He had made no more overtures. dis
cussed no more books. He had no
active interest in her, and she was to
him a pleasant memory of what had
never happened. a Joy. which. by his
essential nature, he was barred from
ever knowing. Yet. while his interest
had gone to sleep and his energy was
consumed in the endless battles he
waged. he knew every trick of the
light on her hair, every quick definite
mannerism Of movement. every line Of
her figure as expounded by her tailor
made gowns. Several times. six
months or so apart, he had increased
her salary. until now she was receiv-
ing ninety dollars a month. Beyond
this he dared not go. though he got
around it by making the work easier.
This he had accomplished after her
return from a vacation, by retaining
her substitute as an assistant Also,
he had changed his office suite. so that
now the two girls had a room by them
selves. The more he saw of her. and
the more he thought he knew of her
the more unapproachable did she
seem to him. But since he had no in
tention of approaching her. this was
anything but an unsatisfactory fact
He was glad he had her in his office
and hoped she'd stay. and that was
about ali.
Daylight did not improve with the
passing years. The life was not gooc

THE AUTOMATIC TELEPHONE.
For o good many years the Chicago
public had ample opportunity to OBJ.
serve what telephone monopoly meant
In the way of service.
The rates had been raised several
times-and threats of another raise
were being made. There was talk Of
abolishing certain forms Of residence
service. The public was treated with
scant courtesy. There were intermin.
able delays in changing old phones
and installing new ones.
Then came the automatic telephone, :
bringing with 1t the much needed
spur of competition.
What happened?
Immediately the utmost efforts to
improve the manual service were
made.
But 1t Is q cold, hard fact that these
efforts have been to large degree
unsuccessful. 1t Is simply a physical
impossibility to make manual service
come anywhere near the remarkable
efficiency Of the automatic.
The reason Is obvious. The auto
matte is a higher development of the
telephone principle.
1t has eliminated the huge cost and
great uncertainty of the human
operator.
It has made telephoning secret,
quick, low in cost.

In the recent grand Durbar cere-

scenes Of barbaric Oriental splendor,
the red and gold umbrella of state and
the fan-shaped parasol played lmpor-

Queen Mary set foot upon the soil Of
India at the landing stage at Bombay,
through all their progress to Calcutta,
Delhi and other points, there was not
a moment Of their daily movements in
which they were not accompanied by
these emblems of state.
The red and gold umbrella is a gor'
