nanQ TO MS nedQ IN an embarrassed
way. Then he darted through the
open doorway and into the lobby of
the big building.
Preciosa looked serious as she
drew back from the window, some
what ashamed, sincerely sorry. That
fitting glimpse of the face below had
shown seriousness not at all in ac-
cord with the reckless episode Of the
moment. A neat but threadbare suit
of clothes made the gentle miss won
der if she had not acted unwisely,
nay, cruelty, in depriving the young
man of a possession he could poorly
spare.
tits too bad-why did do it?" she
chided herself. Besides, the embar-
rassment, the Inconvenience, and she
passed out of the Office regretfuIy.
Finally Preciosa took the elevator.
She glanced timorOusly but eagerly
around the vestibule. The elevator
starter was just crossing from store
room to a hatless person standing in
the shadow Of stone column. He
bore in his hand an old battered cap.
The loiterer accepted 1t. Some few
words passed between them. The
young man penciled something on a
card, gave it to the starter, and has
tened from the building.
Somehow glimpse Of the sensi-
tive, rather sad face of the young
man troubled Preciosa. Her con-
science was upbraiding her AS she
approached him, the elevator starter
lifted his hat politely to the sister of
the successful young broker who
tipped him generously.
"That young man who was just
here" she said-''is he the person
who lost his hat?"

starter. From what he says it was

>Preciosa felt like a guilty criminal
Her tender soul deplored the innocent
mischief she had wrought. She was
strangely unlike herself all the ride
home with her brother. Within an
hour she had made confident of her
best friend, Mary Bird, and before
two had passed by Mary's brother,
Will, was taken into a conspiracy.
He was deputfzed to visit this Dale
Winters as the representative of
-four giddy girls" who had destroyed
his hat, and replace it with the best
fall style money could supply.
More than that the clever young
man did. He learned that Dale Win
tiers was a most estimable and eff
cient young man, temporarily out of
work. How the artful Preciosa work
ed it she told nobody, but within a
week Dale was induced by young
Bird to apply for a position with
Huldane & Co. and was readily en-
gagged. FL
1t was lucky day for. the big bond
firm. Six months later. while the
head of the house was absent, a near
panic hit the money market. Forced
to act on his own initiative, Dale did
just the right thing, and saved the
house from ruin.
That made him solid" with Ran
som Huldane. In the meantime poor,
pitiful Preeiosa found that in exer-
cising sympathy and interest in be-
half of Dale, she had learned to love
him. So she came often to the Of
fee, and Dale called at the Huldane
home occasionally.
1t was the I'd of September, year
to the day, and Preciosa sat in the
Office ostensibly awaiting her broth
er's arrival when Dcc.,o entered.
Preciosa smiled as he took off his
hat-a straw hat! He read inquiry
in her eyes. .-p

OF Interest to Farmers.

Some time since a movement was
put on foot whereby a farmer was
given the privilege of installing a
still for the purpose of distilling the
refuse from the farm into denatured
alcohol, which could be used for
fuel and other purposes. Through
the influence Of the Standard Oil
Co. however, the restrictions thrown
around the farmer were so exacting
that it made it impossible for him
to adopt this plan. The attention
of the government being called TO
this, a modification will be made,
as will be seen from the following
dispatch under date OF the 25th:
Removal Of the restrictions which
prevent the farmer from utilizing
his waste fruits and vegetables to
manufacture denatured alcohol on
his property may soon be accom-
plished. Several congressman today
informally discussed plans for
changing government rules which
now prohibit the manufacture Of
this fuel, The secretary of the
treasury has been approached on
the subject and it is his opinion
that no new law is required to per-
NIT the farmers to operate a distil-
lery for the production of alcohol
to be used as fuel. He said today
that merely abrogation of a present
rule is all that is needed.
All OF the many vormy potatoes
apples and other farm products that
are unfit for sale can be turned into
alcohol, which is more economical
for fuel than gasoline, said Senator
Lane of Oregon, today. Senator
Lane is leading the movement to
have the rule abrogated, In Ger
many" he continued. they raise
potatoes for the special purpose of
distilling them. To be permitted
to do this would mean not only
much cheaper fuel for the American
farmer but also a new source of rev.
enue for he could easily find mar
ket for the alcohol he did not use. !"
