ICE COMPANY USES
lWOKINDS OF TRUCKS

Going on the theory that the motor
truck is more economical for long dis
lance hauling. while for short hauls
with long stops the horse drawn We
hicle is cheaper. a Los Angeles ice
company makes use OF both types for
city service. The wagons operate in
a certain district, and instead of re-
porting 10 the ice plant to secure a
new load several times a day, they
meet the truck at designated points on
their route at certain hours. Thus the
horses are saved the long. slow trip to
the center of town. The truck can
supply two or more wagons from q
single load and can cover a very large
district. Another firm makes use of
a lighter truck WITH trailer for the
same purpose. This can be arranged
to operate with even greater speed.
as the loaded trailer can be dropped
at the corner where the wagon is watt
ing. The empty trailer Is picked up
on the way back to the ice plant. In
city That spreads over wide area
such an arrangement is decidedly eco
nomical and efficient.

CHAPTER XVIII.
Disturbing News.


He walked home swiftly through
the early night, his brain seething with
tumultuous thoughts. The revela-
tions of the day were staggering; the
whole universe seemed to have turned
topsy-turvy since that devastating
hour at Burton's inn. Somehow he
was not able to confne his thoughts
to Hetty Castleton alone. She seemed
to sink into the background, despite
the absolution he had been so ready,
so eager to grant her on hearing the
story from Sara's lips. Not that his
resolve to search her out and claim
her in spite of everything was likely
to weaken, but that the absorbing fig
ure of Sara Wrandall stood out most
clearly in his reflections.
What an amazing creature she wasl
He could not drive her out of his
thoughts, even when he tried to con-
centrate them on the one person who
was dearest to him Of all in all the
world his warm-hearted, adorable
Hetty. Strange contrasts suggested
themselves to him as he strobe along,
head bent and shoulders hunched. He
could not help contrasting the two.
women. He loved Hetty; he would
always love her, of that he was posi-
tive. She was Sara's superior in ev-
cry respect, infinitely so, he argued.
And yet there was something in Sara
that could crowd this adored one. this
perfect one out OF his thoughts for the
time being. He found it difficult to
concentrate his thoughts on Hetty
Castleton.
How white and III Sara had looked
when she said good night to him at
the door! The memory OF her dark,
mysterious eyes haunted him; he
could see them in the night about him.
They had been full OF pain; there were
torrents OF tears behind them. They
had glistened as If Furnished by the
fires of fever.
Even as he wrote his long. trium-
plant letter to Hetty Castleton. the
picture of Sara Wrandall encroached
upon his mental vision. He could not
drive 1t out. He thought of her az
she had appeared to him early in the
spring; through all the varying stages
of their growing intimacy; through the
interesting days when he vainly tried
to translate her matchless beauty by
means OF wretched pigments; up to
this present hour In which she was
revealed, and yet not revealed. to him.
Her vivid face was always before him,
between his eyes and the thin, white
paper on which he scrubbed so eager
ly. Her feYerish eyes were looking
into his; she was reading what he
wrote before 1t appeared on the sur
face Of the Sheet
His letter to Hetty was a triumph
of skill and diplomacy, achieved after
many attempts. He found It hard not
to say too much, and quite as difficult
not to say too little. He spent hours
over this all-important mlssive. At
last II was finished He read and re-
read It. searching for the slightest
flaw: fatal word or suggestion that
