He looked at her. then.
Yes" she agreed. Dramatic pun
ishment, is it not? You can regale
Miss Floyd with the tale. You are on
your way to her. of course"
Miss Carlisle!"
She rose. drawing around her the
heavy folds of velvet. He saw now
the faint lines about her delicate
mouth and the new hardness of her
tawny eyes. She had suffered. was
suffering also.
Congratulate her from me. Mr..
Stanton At least she has known a
man, " natever it has cost her"
Yes. Floyd had played mans part
Whatever the anguish of losing him.
it was matter of congratulation to
have known him 1t never occurred to
Stanton that Valerie Carlisle might
have meant him. himself
1t was afternoon when Stanton ar
rived in New York. among the snow
sprinkled, hilarious crowds that
thronged the streets. And then he
first realized that this was the day be-
fore Christmas. Christmas? Holiday?
With a vague impulse to escape 1t all,
he hailed taxicab. A girl with her
arms full of holly brushed past him as
he reached the curb, a man in uniform
stopped him with hastily recited
plea for aid to the hungry poor AT
him Stanton looked. and put yellow
bill In the outstretched hand.
"Sir!" the man cried. pursuing him
with ready book and pencil. "What
name? So generous"
Floyd" Stanton answered. and
stepped into the vehicle.
The address he gave to the chauf-
feur was that of the quiet uptown
apartment house.
The little old Irishwoman clad in
black silk opened the door. He fan
cied she had aged, but on seeing him
she broke into beaming smiles and
ushered him in with eager welcome.
The girl who was like Floyd was
standing in the f1relit room. AS STAN
ton paused on the threshold. she re-
treated against the window opposite,
her fingers winding themselves hard
into the draperies. her marvellous gray
eyes wide and fevered. So they gazed
at each other. dumb.

ton first found voice. 81 have no right
to blame you-God knows I under

1t was not my fault. l did not throw
away his life by recklessness."
She gazed at him still, yet 1t seemed
to him that during a brief second
consciousness had left her and return
ed, that now she looked at him differ
emily, almost wildly.
81 have been near death, also" he
resumed. 81 have seen no newspa-
pers, l do not know what they have
told you. But the accident was pure
accident; If he could have been here
Floyd would have borne me out In
that. l have wantonly risked his life
with mine at other times, then, no."
Her sensitive face had changed, she
too, found speech.

BIG DRILLING CONTEST
At THE ATHLETIC PARK
TEAMS FROM DIFFERENT MINES
READY TO PARTICIPATE
IN EVENTS.

Final arrangements have been made
for the big drilling contest at the Calu-
met Athletic park Saturday afternoon.
i'm which teams from all of the mines
of the copper country viii participate.
The big event was To have been held
last Saturday, but owing To the unfav-
cradle weather was postponed AS a
result of this postponement il is eX-
pccted the wolverine mine will enter
teams for both the two man and one
man events.
The contest Is one which appeals to
all of the miners because, IT is unique
and is a fair test of ability based on
modern methods. Hammer and drill
mining passed out of practice many
years ago and the hammer and drill
contests held during the past few years
brought into competition, blacksmith.
masons and other tradesmen, asso-
ciated. only Indirectly with mining.
The present contest is one which ap7
peals only To miners and II is certain
ia prove very interesting. The events
will begin at o'clock and four drill
ing teams will work at the same time.
II is estimated the contest will con-
tinue for about three hours.

paris green will cut down the yield
OF cotton, no matter in how small
quantity it is applied, on account of
the fact that it contains water-soluble
arsenic. The newer poison, powdered
arsenate of lead, contains very little
soluble arsenic and will not reduce
the yield of cotton, although fully as
effective as paris green in destroying
the worms. 1t will not blister work
animals and is much safer to USE
The method of applying this poison
is to dust it onto the cotton plants dry,
from cloth sacks suspended from a
pole and carried on horseback be-
tween the cotton rows. 1t Is not d.
luted With any other substance, and
from two to five pounds per acre are
required, according to the size of the
cotton.
The application of liquid sprays to
cotton is extremely impractical, in
volving the purchase of expensive
spraying machinery and requiring a
big outlay for labor in handling the
hundreds of tons of water necessary
to spray cotton field. Particularly is
such spraying ridiculous when the
planter can much more easily and
cheaply destroy the worms with
busting of dry poison.
Such poisons as london purple and
white arsenic should never be used
on cotton, as they burn the foliage
severely. Caustic soda also should not
be used on cotton, either alone or with
other things"
Mr.. Newell concludes his warning
with the following advice: THE
planters throughout the state should
waste no time in preparing for the
coming of the cotton worm, and should
lay in sufficient supply OF powdered
arsenate of lead before the spread of
the pest exhausts the entire available
supply of the poison in the United
States, as occurred last year"
