William Halcs of Stake Royal, one
of the best known and most popu-
lar mine owners in the Gilmerton
district, a man who was believed
not to have an enemy in the world;
for he was in all ways a model en-
ploycr. He had insisted, however,
upon efficiency in the work, and
had therefore paid off certain
drunken and idle employees who
were members of the all powerful
society. Coffin notices hung out
side his door had not weakened his
resolution, and so in a free, civil
lized country he found himself con-
demned to death.
The execution had now been duly
carried out. Ted Baldwin, who
spraWled in the seat of honor beside
the Bodymaster, had been chief of
the party. His flushed face and
glazed, bloodshot eyes told of Sleep
lessness and drink. He and his
two comrades had spent the night
before among the mountains. They
were unkempt and weather. stained.
But no heroes, returning from a
fOrlOrn hope, could have a warmer
welcome from their comrades.
The story was told and rctold
amid cries of delight and shouts of
laughter. They had waited for
their man as he drove home at
nightfall, taking their station at the
top of a steep hill, where his horse
must be at a walk. He was SO
frlrred to keep out the cold that
he could not lay his hand on his
pistol. They had pulled him out and
shot him again and again. He had
screamed for mercy. The screams
were repeated for the amusement
of the lodge.
"Lct's hear again how he
squealed" they cried.
None of them knew the man; but
there is eternal drama in a killing,
and they had shown the Scowrers
of Gilmerton that the Vcrmissa men
were to be relied upon.
There had been one contrctcmps;
for a man and his wife had driven
up while they were still cmptving
their revolvcrs into the silent body.
1t had been suggested that they
should shoot them both; but they
were harmless folk who we're not

and keep silent, lest a worse thing

Plates and Dishes for Little
Eo1bc By Mrs. Christine

There are attractive small Cups,
mugs. and plates, as well as little
bowls which can be used for cereal.
There is also the brown crocke-y
ware, which, like the casseroles, is
heavy, and always good taste.
There are all the little custard cups,
ramequins. and pitchers which the
child will delight In.
And just here a word NAV not be
amiss as to the way a child likes
its food. We remember how we our
selves like to have a cake all to
ourself," and present-day children
are just the same. / recall q friend
with three children who thought that
II was too much trouble 10 wash
separate molds, cups, etc. But /
know that the small extra labor is
repaid with the delight that Inc food
will be eaten. Indeed, often the SIM

distinguishable mass, is eaten with

To "eat down to the picture" is.
indeed a delight-and a means of
encouraging the eating OF perhaps
homely fare.

mystifica.ion which spells the lack
of Just one thing-a compound
thing-home and mother.
For Just one-half of the money
which IL takes to keep these three
children in the home, their own
mother could. and is more than will

She cannot make enough to support
them all-her services. at least at
present, are not worth much. But
she can earn some and is willing to
give that. With a little help in the
form OF a pension In lieu OF the
money spent on the children in the
home. she could maintain her own
little home"
"The facts of the case are as
follows:
John Canada had a wife and
three children. He could do the
work of skilled laborer when he
could get a job. but Jobs were

human beings deprived of all Of
those sacred surroundings of child

I'VE so often talk about the
"/ housekeeping needs of
w grown-ups, that we may
overlook those OF the little
people
The first essential in serving a
child's food. is to have ii hot. Cold
food will in itself cause discomfort.
But II is not always easy TO do this
with ordinary plates. And that Is
why the hot-water-plate is so con-
venient and useful. This is a china
or heavy porcelain plate, with a metal
bottom, and compartment between.
into which boiling water can be
poured by a small vent at the side
In this way. the hot water prevents
the food from cooling while the lit
tie lady or small son eats.
Another plate for a sInaller child,
is one with a very heavy saucer
like formation Around the base
is fastened a wire support which
fits easily onto any table ledge. Thus
IL is impossible for a small child
20 throw over or move his plate
while eating, and the dish is so deep
that spilling is made difficult.
For the larger child. the various
decorated porringers and mugs are
always attractive with their Dummies
and chickens and quaint figures.

was seen the other day at a very
erlall cost.
