With what he considered great presence of mind, Mallory explained: Tit slipped off-I--I picked it up. have it here" And he took the little gold band from his waistcoat and tried to jam it on Marjories right thumb.
 Not on the thumb" Mrs. Temple cried Don't you know"
 You see, it's my first marriage"
 'You poor boy-this tinger!" And Mrs. Temple, raising Marjories limp hand. selected the proper digit, and held it forward, while Mallory pressed the fatal circlet home
 And then Mrs. Temple, having com pleted their installation as man and wife, utterly confOunded their con- fusion by her final effort at comfort: Well my dears, I'll go back to my seat, and leave you alone with your dear husband"
 My dear what?" Marjorie mumbled namely, and began to snifIle again. WhereupOn Mrs. Temple resigned her to Mallory. and consigned her to fate with a consoling platitude
 Cheer up, my dear, you'll be all right in the morning"
 Marjorie and Mallorys eyes met in one wild clash. and then both stared into the window, and did not notice that the shades were down.

 "So you're not married, Annie. Whatever became of that fellow who used to hang round you all the timer"
 Charlie Selby?" She blushed at the name, and thrilled at the luxury of meeting jealousy. "Oh, he entered the church. He's a minister out in Ogden, Utah
 T always knew he'd never amount to much" was Lathrops epitaph on his old rival Then he started with a new twinge: You bound for ogden, too?"
 oh. no" she smiled. enraptured at the new sensation of making a man anxious, and understanding all in a flash the motives that make cOquettes. Then she told him her destination. I'm on my way to China"
 "China!" he exclaimed. Som IT,
 She stared at him with a new thought, and gushed Oh, Ira-are you missionary, toO?"
 Missionary? Hell, mol" he roared. Excuse me-I'm an importer-Anne, II"
 But the sonorous swear reverberat- ed in their ears like a smitten bell, and he blushed for 1t, but could not recall it.

CHAPTER XII.
The Needle in the Haystack.

The Needle in the Haystack.
 The almost-married couple sat long in mutual terror and a common par alysis of ingenuity. Marjorie, for lack of anything better to do was absent mindedly twisting Snoozleum's ears, while he, that pocket abridgment of dog, in a well meaning effort to di- vert her from her evident grief, made a great pretense of ferOcity, growing and threatening to bite her fingers of. The new ring attracted his spe- cial jealousy. He was growing dis couraged at the ill-success of his i'm personation of wolf, and dejected at being so crassly ignored, when he suddenly became, in his turn, Q center of interest
 Marjorie was awakened from her trance of hamilton by the porters voice. His plantation voice was or dinarily as thick and sweet as his own New Orleans sorghum, but now it had a bitterness that curdled the blood:
 Scuse me, but how did you-ali git that theah dog in this heah cah?"
 "Snoozleums is always with me-" said Marjorie briskly, as if that set tied it. and turned for confirmation to the dog himself, aren't you. Snoozleums?"
 Well" the porter drawled, trying to be gracious with his great power, the rules don't low no live stock in the sleepin' cars, 'ceptin' humans"
 Marjorie rewarded his condescen- sion with a blunt: "Snoozleums Is more human than you are"
 'I p'sume he is,' the porter ad- mitted. but he can't make up berths. Anyway, the rules says dogs goes with the baggage"
 Marjorie swept rules aside with a defiant: "I don't care. I won't be separated from my Snoozleums."
 She looked to Mallory for support. but he was too sorely troubled with greater anxieties to be capable of any action.
 The porter tried persuasion: You betta femme take him. the conducta is wuss'n what l am. He th'owed couple of dogs out the window trip befo' last
 The brute."
 "Oh, yassum, he is a regulah brute. He just loves to hear m splosh when they light"
 Noting the shiver that shook the girl, the porter offered bit of con- solation:
 Better femme have the pore little thing up in the baggage cah. He'll be in charge of a lovely baggagesmash- er."
 Are you sure he's a nice man?"
 "Oh, yassum, he's death on trunks, but he's a natural born angel to dogs."
 Well, if l must, l must" she sobbed. Poor little Snoozleums! Can he come back and see me tomorrow" Marjories tears were splashing on the puzzled dog, who nestled close, with foreboding of disaster.
 T reckon p'haps you'd better visit him."
 Poor dear little Snoozleums-good night my little darling. Poor little child-it's the first night he's slept

CHAPTER XI.
A Chance Encounter.

While Mrs. Temple was confding to her husband that the agitated couple in the next seat had just come from a weddiLg-factory, and had got on while he was lost in tobacco land. the people in the seat on the other side of them were engaged in a little drama of their own.
 Ira LathrOp, known to all who knew him as a woman-hatng snapping-tur- tie, was so busily engaged trying to drag the farthest invading rice grains out of the back of his neck. that he was late in realizing his whereab bouts When he raised his head, he found that he had crowded into seat with an uncomfortable looking woman, who crowded against the window with old maidenly timidity.
 He felt some apology to be neces- sary, and he snarled: Disgusting things, these weddings!" After he heard this. it did not sound entirely felicitous, so he grudgingly ventured Excuse me-you married?"
 She denied the soft impeachment so heartily that he sottened little:
 You're a sensible woman l guess you and l are the only sensible peo- pie on this train
 'It-seems-sO.' she giggled. It was the first time her spinstership had been taken as material for a con- pliment Something in the girlsh giggle and the strangely young smile that swept twenty years from her face and belied the silver lines in her hair, seemed to catch the old bachelors attention He stared at her so fiercely that she looked about for a way to escape. Then a curiously anxious, almost a hungry, look soft ened his leOnine jowls into a bOyish eagerness. and his growl became a sort of gruff purr:
 Say, you look something like ao old art-er-friend-of mine. Were you ever in Brattleboro, Vt.?"
 A flush warmed her cheek, and sense of home warmed her prim speech, as she confessed:
 ''I came from there originally"
 CO Nlu l, Sdiu lid IdbulO Op, lShll- ing closer, and beaming like a big sun: q don't suppose you remember Ira Lathrop?"
 The old maid stared at the bachelor as if she were trying to see the boy she had known, through the mask that time had modelled on his face And then she was girl again, and her voice chimed as she cried:
 Why, Ira!-Mr. Lathrop!-is 1t you?"
 She gave him her hand-both her hands, and he smothered them in one big paw and laid the other on for extra warmth, as he nodded his say age head and roared as gentle as a sucking dove:
 Well, we'll! Annie-Anne-Mis Gattlel What do you think of that?"
 They gossiped across the chasm Of of years about people and things, and knew nothing of the excitement SO close to them, saw nothing of Chicago slipping back into the distance, with its many lights shooting across the windows like hurled torches.
 Suddenly a twinge of ancient jeal-

l may say, however, that the con-

hotel and Immediately upon its con-
vening it was addressed by President
Taft and by Secretary Nagel of the
Department of Commerce and Labor.
Both of these speakers pointed out the
economic, commercial ana industrial
problems that confront the country at
this time and the great responsibility
attendant upon their solution and in
.icated that this work could be given
tremendous assistance through an or
ganization representing the live COM

Mr.. Dorman spoke of the work be-
ing done in Boise and Vale, having
spent some time of late in the latter
place.
Mr.. Redway thought the press of

Caldwell Well Represented.
Burton L. French, who had been
requested to act as representative of
the Caldwell Commercial CLUB at the
national meeting of commercial bodies
at Washington, D. c.. reported in the
following letter:
Referring again to your letter re-
questing that l represent your bod"
at . national meeting of the various
chambers of commerce and other COM
mercial bodies that was convened in
Washington on April ed, l would say
that attended the meetings yester-
day and today in the morning. l was
not able to be present at he afternoon
meetings on account of the fact that
Congress was in session and this lat
ter fact prevented me from serving as
= member of the Committee on Or
ganization, as l would have been en-
titled to have served from Idaho.
However. the report of the commit
tee on permanent organization was
considered on Tuesday morning and I
think is fairly satisfactory and espec-
tally in view of the fact that everybody
seemed to regard the plans as merely
tentative and subject to modification
as the needs of the commercial bodies
will require after the experience of one
year.
