you continually put off the
wedding:'
Haywood Glover sat musing for a
few moments before replying to his
prospective mother-in-law's question.
81 am not sure Estelle and 1 will be
happy together. She has a passion for
attention. My love does not seem to
satisfy her. Better give her time to
make up her mind that she really pre-
fers me to all the rest"
81 must admit that you show very
good sense. | will speak to EStelle,
and we shall see if she will not do bet
ter"
''That would avail nothing. If this
love of admiration, which usually car
ries with it a love for dress. is a part
of her nature she will not heed your
%admonition. Say nothing to her. Leave
it to me to decide when. If ever, she is
fitted to get on with one man."
There was no need for either to adj
monish Estelle. for she overheard every
word from behind a portiere.
The winter social season was at its
height. and Estelle, being engaged. did
; not Scruple to go out in the evening
with her lover as sole escort. The first
ball they attended after she had over
heard her lovers remarks about her
she put on her finest costume and all
her jewels. When Haywood saw her
thus arrayed he frowned. AS soon as
they arrived at the ball Estelle accept
ed the attentions Of every man who
was disposed to seek her and seemed
pleased that their number was greater
than V g before. Haywood stood be
side her till her card was filled. then
left her to her first partner and did not
reiOin her till it was time to leave. He
drove home with her. listening to her
prattle about the different triumphS
she had achieved during the evening,
and left her at the door without the
usual kiss. The icy day he wrote her
a note breaking the engagement.
EStelle inclosed his note without a
word Of comment or reply in an en-
velope addressed to Haywood Glover,
Esq, and sent it through the mail.
Haywood was somewhat taken abacl
at this unexpected treatment. He con
sidered it. to say the least. evidence o.
a wayward disposition. He deemed
himself insulted by the girl who wa
to have been his wife.
The next entertainment at whicl
Haywood and Estelle met was q prom

In the golden age. runs the old Morse

peace and anything else that it was
asked for. The grinders We're two

and carried the hand mill and the

them to grind salt. This for a whole
day they did. but when night came
they awoke their new master from his
sleep and asked if they had MOI ground

The maidenS took him at his word

TESTED RECIPES FOR STAINS.
Cut Them Out and Keep Handy For
Reference.

There is Il remedy for almost every
stain in the world. But because a GER
tain antidote emoveS ink there is no
reason to believe it will remove grease.
Medicine which would prove beneficial
in the treatment of scarlet fever might
kill a patient suffering from typhoid.
AntidoteS for stains. like medicines,
have their peruliaritirS.
The following table may prove help
full for reference:
Acid-Tse ammonia or chloroform.
Rlood-SOak when fresh in cold water.
Chocolate-Soak in kerosene and wash in
cold water.
C~off"e-Tr.at with boiling water when
fresh.
Fruit-Soak fresh stains in milk or use
OXalic acid.
Grass-Rub the spots with molasses and
wash.
Grease-Rub French chalk or fuller's
earth on spots.
Ink-l'se salt and lemon juice.
Iron Rust-Ise lemon and salt or hot
solution CT oXalic acid.
Mildew-Use lemon and salt or Javellc
water.
Soak in kerosene.
Paint-tse turpentinr or benZine.
Perspiration-Nothing but boiling will
remove.
Scorch-Net and expose to sunshine.
Tar-Soak in warm milk and salt.
Tea-l'sc boiling water.
Wine-Put dry salt on fresh stains.
warm milk on old ones.
MilucW is obstinate and difficult to

"OVER THE GARDEN WALL
Can Be Played on the Tennis Court or
In the Parlor.

If this game is played upon a tennis
court the net makes a good wall. or if
played in the parlor a strip of muslin
stretched across the folding doors or
room will answer.
Then select two captains. who in
turn select their sides. each side TAX
ing Il position on either side of the
wall. Each captain has a soft ball,
and at the count Of one, two, three. they
| toss the ball over the wall. at the same
| time calling the name Of the opposite
player who is expected to catch it.
If in the excitement the wrong one
| catches the ball he or she goes on the
other side. The player who catches
the ball hastily passes it again to hi;
captain. and the former rule is repeat
ed until one side Outnumbers the othel
to a great extent.

FACT ABOUT THE ORANGE.

You have probably noticed that an
apple always has five cells in which
its seeds are held. But with an orange
it is different, for the number Of Sec
lions varies considerably, being gen
orally q dozen or more. There is a way
to tell in advance, before you have
taken off the peel, how many sections
a given orange has, and if you know
the trick you can perform what seems
to be quite a feat in clairvOyance..
At the stem end Of the orange you
The Ekalaka eagle. [volume] (Ekalaka, Mont.) 1909-1920, 1913-06-20

will find 4 little wheel shaped depres-
sion where the stem was pulled away,
and if you will count the spokes in
this wheel it will give you the number
of sections. Each section of the or
ange is virtually a separate fruit, and
the number of sections seems to be
governed by the number Of cells which
are fortified in the bud. The next
time you eat an orange see if you can
learn the number OF sections by look
ing ut the stem scar.
