Shall We Have Strawberry

The above question is being
asked quite freely, but at present
no one is able to answer it def

II, that the answer to that ques-
ton is up to the Tramway Co.
Last year the Arvada business
men, ranchers, gardeners and
others put up about 5000 and en-
tertained more than ten thous-
/ visitors. The Tramway re-
we'd the greater benefit by car
ing this great crowd, but did
ot give a nickle toward helping

eople here do not feel that they
IN raise enough money for the

THE TELEPHONES
BROADER FIELD

You know the telephones
mechanical ingenuity. But
do you know the ingenuity
Of its every day uses.
Ordinary uses of the tele-
phone are pretty we'll under
stood; but there is an enor-
nous field Of long distrance
telephone service just out
side the ordinary, every day
uses Of the average family.
Many families get twice,
three times. five fold and
even ten fold the real service
from the telephone that
others do. They have no
advantage over their neigh
bors, being subscribers to the
same Bell service. But they
are ingenious. They turn to
the long distance telephone
in emergencies. They en-
ploy long distance to give in
creased convenience, to re-
lieve anxiety, to bind the
family together in spite Of
separation, to promote social
life, share happiness, express
sympathy and enlarge their
interests on every hand. To
them the telephone is far
more than a convenience for
ordering groceries.
These wider uses of the
telephone are important.
And, by the way, long dis
tance messages are not as
expensive as you may think.
Call Long Distance and
inquire about rates.

as though she were making careful
choice of her words.

years, Bruce"
Darlington still regarded her fixed
ly. ThGe was a light In his black
eyes that seemed to penetrate to the
most secret recesses of her heart and
soul.
Three years, Betty?" he repeated
again.
Betty, her eyes cast down, twisted
her rein nervously between her slim,
white fingers, but Carrington's steady
glance never left her sweet face,
framed by it's halo of bright hair. She
meath her dark lashes.
Three years, Betty?" he prompted.
Bruce, don't stare at me that way,

to his and he saw that they were full
of sudden tears. Bruce, don't go

Darlington slipped from the saddle
and stood at her side.

asked. He took her hands loosely in
his and relentlessly considered her
crimsoned face. 81 reckon it will al

it's stock and slaves was offered for
sale, he, as the principal creditor,
was able to buy 1t in.
One of his first acts after taking
possession of the property was to
have Mahaffy reinterred in the grove
of oaks below his bedroom windows,
and he marked the spot with great
square of granite. The Judge, .vislbly
shaken by his emotions. saw the
massive boulder 60 into place.
Harsh and rugged like the nature
of him who lies beneath it-but en-
during, too, as he was" he murmured'
He turned to Yancy and Hannibal, and
added: You will lay me beside him
when | die"
Then when the bitter struggle came
and he was wrenched and tortured by
longings, his strength was in remem-
boring his promise to the dead man,
and 1t was his custom to go out under
the oaks and pace to and fro beside
Mahaffy's grave until he had gained
the mastery of himself. Only Yancy
and Hannibal knew how fierce the
conflict was he waged, yet in the end
he won that best earned OF all vic
tories, the victory over himself.
"My salvation has been a costly
thing; it was bought with the blood
of my friend" he told Yancy.
1t was Hannibal's privilege to give
Cavendish out of the vast Quintard
tract such farm as the earl had never
dreamed OF owning even in his most
fervid moments of imagining; and he
abandoned all idea of going to Eng
land to claim his title. At the judges
suggestion he named the place Earps
Court. He and Polly were entirely
satisfied with their surroundings, and
never ceased to congratulate them
selves that they had left Lincoln coun-
ty. They felt that their friends, the
Carringtons at Belle Plain, though I'M
titled people, were still Of an equal
rank with themselves; while as for
the Judge, they doubted If royalty It
self laid 1t any over him.
Mr.. Yancy accepted his changed
fortunes with philosophic composure.
Technically he filled the position OF
overseer at The Oaks, but the judges
activity was so great that this posi-
ton was largely sinecure. The most
arduous work he performed was
spending his wages.
Certain triling peculiarities sur
vived with the Judge even after he
had entered what he had once been

Graceful East Indians.

Describing the women OF India, a
writer says: Even the most withered
toil-worn bag has a dignity OF carriage
and a grace Of motion that the west
ern woman might envy. The 'sari Is
draped in an easy flowing style and
adjusted as 1t slips back with a grace
full turn OF the silver bangled arm.
the skinny legs move rythmically, and
the small feet fall with silent and
pantherlike tread. 1t is the beauty
of natural and untrammeled motion,
and says much in favor OF the aboli-
ton of the corset, for the Indian wo-
men retain their uprightness and sup
pleness Of figure till bowed with age.
The commonest type is the coolie
woman, who undertakes all sorts OF
rough work, carrying heavy burdens
on her head, and she is, perhaps, the
least attractive, for her workaday
garments are usually faded and dirty;
vet. even among this poor class OF
burden bearers, we see many with
handsome straight features and supple
well proportional figures.
mo matter how poor their gar
ments, jewelry OF some sort is worn;
necklaces of gold or beads, colored
glass or silver bangles and heavy Sill
yer anklets."

CHAPTER xxxlv (continued.)

Betty Malroy and Darlington had
ridden into Raleigh to take leave OF
their friends. They had watched the
stage from sight, had answered the
last majestic salute the Judge had CIV
en- them across the swaying top OF
the coach before the first turn OF the
road hid it from sight and then they
had turned their horses heads in the
direction of Belle Plain.
Bruce, do you think Judge Price
will ever be able to accomplish all he
hopes tu?" Betty asked when they
had left the town behind. She drew
in her horse as she spoke, and they
went forward at walk under the
splendid arch of the forest and over a
carpet of vivid leaves.

been his original estimate of the
Judges character, events had greatly
modified it.

he?" said Betty.
There's not a doubt in his mind"
He was still at Belle PlainA living
In what had been Wares office, while
the Cavendishes were domiciled at
the big house. He had arranged with
the Judge to crop a part of that hope

season; the fact that lawsuit inter
yened between the judge and posses
sion seemed a trifling matter for Car
rington had become infected with the
judges point of view, which did not
admit of the possibility OF failure; but
he had not yet told Betty OF his plans.
Time enough for that when he left
Belle Plain.
His silence concerning the future
had caused Betty much thought. She
wondered If he still intended going
south into the Purchase; she was not
sure but II was the dignified thing for
him to do. She was thinking OF this
now as they went forward over the
rustling leaves, and at length she
turned in the saddle and faced him.

Lecturing in London on an out-of-

authority that a fine medieval castle
in good preservation in one Of these
Italian hill towns had been sold to
an Englishman for $195.
