The Weeks illustrated Story
LEAVING BEFORE TRAIN TINE

"Do you think King can keep this
pace all the way to town." asked
Joyce anIiously.
DICK Torrington's chin squared itself
A. he looked at the sturdy black flying
over the hard packed snow.
III King doesn't keep going" he
said. with an uneasy laugh. you'll
keep on being Joyce waring and not
Joyce Torrington. I've timed 1t 20 az
to Just make the train. II We miss
that, your father will be after us In no
time at ALL
Joyce shiyered at tho suggestion.
For years she had lived in dread of
the stern old man who since his wife's
death had looked on life with hatred.
When Joyce had come, her gentle
mother had slowly faded away, and
Hiram Waring, blaming the innocent
child for the death Of the woman he
loved so passionately, had never shown
her the affection that was her heritage
As child her innocent transgres-
sions were punished with an unjust Sc
verify, and when Dick Torrington had
asked her father for her hand he had
been driven from tho house for no
other apparent reason than Mr.. War
ings hatred Of Joyce. The father
would not give his consent to a mar
riage because It would make her hap
py, and thereafter he watched her more
closely than ever.
But Dick Torrington was not Of tho
sort to take his unjust dismissal with
out an effort to win the woman he
loved, and the elopcment was the re-
suit.
Busby was the terminal station Of a
branch line on which the single train
made two trips daily each way. Hank
Carew took a pride in the punctuality
with which the road was run, and 1t
was certain that the morning train
would leave exactly at half past 8.
BY planning the elopement 80 as to
reach the station Just as the train
started Dick was assured that there
could be no successful pursuit. King
could cover the ground faster than
Warnings double team, even should the
latter De alreauN ultcleu.
The start OF the elopement had been
successfully accomplished, and now
King was flying over the road toward
the town, while Hiram Waring still
puttered about the barn in blissful
ignorance Presently. however. he
would come into the house. and then
perhaps he would realize what was up.
Meanwhile they would have made the
train, and presently they would be
across the state line, where licenses
were not necessary. Tho laws Of their
| own state required residence before q
license could be issued, and as town
clerk Joyce's father was charged with
the Issuance Of licenses.
All would have gone well II small
boy had not thrown a SNOWFALL at
Dick. The well packed ball Of snow
missed the driver, but struck King a
smart blow in the ribs. The high spir-
tied horse was unused to such treat
ment and bolted down the road with
Dick frantically saving at the reins.

Joyce's face blanched. The Hill (al-

| steep descent of nearly mile. with
one ugly turn. II King should bolt
down the Hill there was little chance
that Dick would be able to guide him

Game Of Workbox,

Each child is given the name Of an
article that would naturally be found
in workbox, such as scissors, thimble,
needle. pin, tape measure, emery,
thread. spools of cotton and silk, etc.
The children are seated in a circle
about the room. One child stands in
the center, with top or anything else
that will twirl. She twirls 1t and
sings, "My lady must have her scis-
sors before l count six" Scissors
must jump to catch the spinning ar
ticle before six has been counted. II
she fails to be quick enough, "Scis-
sors" takes the center and, twirling the
object, calls on any other article she
may desire.-Philadelphi Ledger,

The Family Mans
Hardest Problem

and at the same time the most
important one is the building Of
a suitable home. So much de-
pends on the environment of
the children that every pre-
caution should be taken for
their comfort and health. Sun
light and fresh air in the home
is necessary-uniform temper
ature and humidity is also
necessary. These things and
many more have come down to
us through generations gen.
erations when the home was
the making of our Nation and
the material used IN most Of
those homes was good Ameri-
can wood-sometimes crudely
cut, but always gives the pre-
ference because of it's fitness to
health and comforts.
Our yard today contains the
same kind Of lumber. but more
perfectly cut and finished so
that the work required Of the
carpenters has been reduced to
the minimum. We want to
show it to you and explain
how you can use it profitably.

3 MEN KILLED IN WRECK.

One of the biggest wrecks that has
occurred in Idaho for long time, was
near Nampa Sunday night.
A stock train with a shipment of
sheep, consigned for eastern points
was putting on steam for long
grade, when two rails turned and the
whole train went off the track.
The engineer, fireman, and head
breakman were the victoms, besides
1900 sheep, which was lost.
The G. M. w. freight agent who
was on inspection tour was also
badly hurt.
This accident is hard blow to the
shippers at this time of the year, as
they all need money badly and
the only revenue that can be had
out of the wreck is the hides, from
the sheep, until the railroad settles
up with them, that is, providing the
O. S. L. see cause to think it was en-
tirely the railroads fault.

Prof. Hoyt the cowboy magician Is

seems to delight the large crowds
that have been attending each perfor-
nance.
Espanita, Queen of the Globe Rol-

ficult trick Wednesday night, when
she mounted on her large Wooden
ball and went up an incline and
then down a flight of stairs, most
difficult act which the audience ap-

to market. He is supplying crates
and boxes for everything, and is de-
sirous of getting orders closed soon
for apple boxes for the fall trade so
he can have them here in time and in
proper quantity. This is an industry
that HIS. to be developed and some
thoughtful cooperation on the part
of people who have little fruit to
sell will be of advantage to them as
we'll as to the dealer, who by the
way is doing some pioneer work in
this line.
