rife to defend himself and the dogs.
AS he built the last fire a man ap
peared from the thicket in back of
Stone Bear and said:
II saw your fire and I'm wel1-nigh
famished, SO / came for food" Then
seeing Stone Bear staring curiously
at him he said Food! For Gods
sake, foodl"
1t was Bulwer the escaped con-
vict.,' At the same instant each
seemed to recognize the other and
each started forward instinctively
and grappled-one to escape punish
ment and get food, the other to cap
ture the law-breaker.
The dogs bristled at the cry of the
wolves coming nearer and the attack
on their master, but word from
Stone Bear Quoted them. He be-
lieved he was stronger than Bulwer
and meant to prove 1t without the
dogs help.
They struggled two minutes but it
seemed hours to the painting, putting
men.
Suddenly an awful bowling broke
out nearby them. The fire only pre-
vented the wolves from attacking the
camp.
Lets let up on this and defend
ourselves" said Bulwer.
For answer he was choked into in
sensibility and quickly bound.
Stone Bear cast more wood on the
fire and frightened 1t up. After feed
ing the now conscious prisoner he
guarded the camp with tireless
vigil.
At Z a. m. next morning he drew
up at Double l. ranch, Mr.. Mortons
ranch, and delivered his charge to
the Carver authorities.
He modestly refused a handsome
reward but entered Mr.. Morton's EN-.
ployment.

HigIn-Priced Copy

During the siege of Kimberley the
editor of the only daily paper there
was often hard put to find enough
news. One day in a clubroom he
found Cecil Rhodes reading a fairly
new paper from Cape Town. He bor-
rowed it and rushed to his own Of
flee, where it soon reappeared as a
special edition, selling like hot cakes.
That same evening he met Rhodes,
who inquired, where's my Cape
Town paper2" "Oh, 1 cut it up for
the printers" was the reply. please
don't do that again." said Rhodes
mildly. THAT paper came through
by native runners and cost me

How Attraction Acts

Attraction acts very suriously.
Thus if there were a man in the
moon and if he were like the men
on the earth he would be able to leap
over a three-storied house with as
much ease as an ordinary jumper
springs over three-foot fence, in
consequence of the forces of attrac-
ton being much less at the moons
surface than at the earth's. An ele-
plant there would be as light-footed
as the deer here. A boy throwing
stones might easily land them in an
adjoining county. On the other hand,
the reverse of all this would happen
in Jupiter and Saturn. They being
SO much greater than the earth, their
attraction would so impede locomo-
ton that a man would scarcely be
able to crawl, and large animals
would be crushed by their own
weight

Concerning a MILDLY Blouse

Dear Miss Doom:
A new white MILDLY blouse was
put in the wash with blue collar
on it and the blue color faded on
tho white. Is there any remedy
for this? If SO, kindly let me know
in the paper as soon as possible.
S. P.
Try javelle water. You will have
to be careful when using it, be-
cause unless the directions are car
ried out carefully you will not be
successful.
Have a bowl of javelle water,
a bowl of ammonia and bowl of
hot water ready to use.
Dip the garment in the javelle
water, then quickly into the am
monia and then in the hot water.
Rinse in cold water and hang out
to dry.
To make javelle water dissolve
half pound washing soda in one
pint boiling water. Add quart of
boiling water, in which quarter
pound chloride of lime has been
dissolved. Stir; let it settle, pour
off clear, bottle and keep dark.
Use one cup to a gallon of water
in which clothes are boiled. Rinse
in water to which diluted ammonia
has been added.

Dear Mary Lizbett:
received your nice letter and
my mother says she will be very
glad to have you and your mother
and Billy all come to our house TO
STAY a week. We will have fun
wading and everything, so don't
forget to come Mary Lizbett and
we will go wading. The other day
we went to the hayfields and had
fun, and maybe we will go again
when you come. so don't forget to
come soon. Your loving friend,
DOROTHY DEAR.
This was the letter that Dorothy
wrote to Mary Elizabeth Brown.
1t took quite a long time to DO H.
because mother Dear had given her
permission to use the pen and INK
If she would be very,very care1ui.
So Dorothy took the pen and INK
and writing paper out on the back
porch and with many twists OF her
tongue and wiggles of eyebrows,
wrote her reply.
"There," she said at last with
sigh of satisfaction, 1T is all Done
and 1t is a very nice letter 'cept
for those two blots. But one OF
the blots is so teeny-weeny that
maybe Mary Lizbeth won't see IL.
ANYWAY, it looks better than her
letter cause she wrote with PEN
Gil and spelled nearly every WORD
wrong. She even spelled mother
two ways. Now I'll dress the en-
velope."
This was done with great care.
Not one blot slid from the pen to
mar the white paper. Then Doro-
thy placed the cork in the bottle
and wiped the pen on a Money
suckle leaf from the vine about
the porch. Her thumb and nrst
finger were covered with ink. She
sucked them in turn, then looked
at them critically.
They're as black as ever" SAID
Dorothy. maybe the ink'll never,
never come Off"
Then, picking up the letter care
fully in her left hand, which was
not stained at all, she hurried 10
mother Bears room to demand
Don't it look pretty? That red
stamp on the nice white paper?
And see how nicely l wrote
mother"
Mother Dear looked and admired.
Dorothy pulled the letter from the
envelope and watched mother
Dear's face anxiously as she read.
Mother Dear declared that II was
very nice note, after which Dorothy
returned it to the envelope ana
sealed it, smiling happily.
She didn't seal it by running ner
tongue over the sticky flap. NO,
indeed Mother Dear had taught

BY HOWARD FALK

Stone Bear was not a ferocious
wild Indian like those in dime novels.
He was simply a Canadian Wolyer,
who was paid for each wolf or hyena
he killed. He possessed strychnine
"a. poison used to kill wolves), traps
and everything used In his trade. AS
a. lad he learned from his father, Red
Hand. how to mix strychnine with
the blood of a dead animal to Kill the
wolf who was tempted to eat 1T.
Stone Bear was an honest, steady
and temperate Indian; good, we'll
educated Canadian citizen. In ap-
pearance he was like most of his
race, with black hair and eyes, but
he was singularly handsome. He was
dressed like the average rancher, but
he had two revolvers and a Win
chester rife for means of protection
in rounding his traps. He had been
well educated He had long since
earned a reputation when he cap
tured a beautiful, vicious wild stall
lion while no other man wished to
even cross its path.
One cold night in November a
mounted Northwest policeman refined
up at Royalton, Stone Bears
home town, with mailbag. He said
to Mr.. Peer, the police captain of the
town:
I'm all played out and this mails
got to get to Carver by a. m, to-
morrow. The regular mail-carrier is
sick and I volunteered to see the mail
through for him, but I'm too sick and
1 do not know the trail to Carver.
There's $4,000 in gold to go
through to pay Mr.. Mortons ranch
men and shepherds tomorrow. Is
there anyone who knows the trail and
who will volunteer"
Stone Bear responded: Il know the
trail and will 60"
"But beware of the wolves. They're
hungry and daring" said the recent
arrival, "and out in force. One got
my arm before l killed him." and he
showed his left arm horribly manr
gled ALSO, watch out for Bulwer
| the two-gunman; he broke jail again
and is at his old tricks"

without emotion.
But no sooner had Science fallen on

Troublesome Stains

Precipitation stains on white
dresses may be removed, says an ex-
change. First, dan,pen with q little
lemon juice and rub slightly be-
tween the fingers. Then put into the
soap and water. Iron rust can often
be removed from white clothes by
rubbing the spot with ripe tomato,
then cover with salt and let 1t dry
in the sunlight
Finally wash out in clear. warm
water. Fresh ink stains can be
taken out of the carpet by shaking
salt on them.
The salt acts like plotting paper
soaking up the ink. Remove the salt
and put on fresh supply and final
ly wash out with tepid water-no
soap.

be we'll applied to the treatment of
the summer gloves. The small break
should be repaired, especially before
washing the gloves, as washing only
makes them worse. The set of vari-
Gus cotton threads and small darner
Is an excellent glove equipment,

Save the tops of the long cotton,
silk or kid gloves. Cut them off at

gloves are needed they may be easily
made by sewing these tops to a pair
of short gloves. This is quite an
economy.

Dear Margery Doom:
Please, please, as soon as possl-
BILE, give me good recipe for can
ming green peppers. 1 have the pep
pers this very minute and do not
know what to do with them.
PEPPER.
Take half large green, the re-
naming half red and yellow mixed
sweet peppers, make an inclsion
and remove the seeds without
breaking the peppers. Make a
brine sufficiently strong to float
an egg and put the peppers IN
if. cover and stand aside for twenty
four hours. Renew the brine and
stand away again for twenty-four
hours. Now drain and wash care
fully in cold water. To every dozen
peppers allow quart of vinegar
and a quart of water; put this IN
porcelain lined kettle, bring TO DOLL
ing point, pour over the peppers
and stand aside to cool. When colo
drain and throw this vinegar ana
water away. Bring to a boil suff1-
Gent good cider vinegar to cover
the peppers, pour it over the pep
pers while boiling hot. When cold
tie up for use.
There, Miss Pepper, you may get
busy', at once. I dropped every
thing to search through my file for
the above recipe, and sincerely trust
that it will meet your requirements.
All sorts of leftovers may be used
to advantage when there are only
two in a family.

Mending China and Curing
Nervousness
Dear Miss Doom

Dear Miss Doom:
VIII you tell me how to paste a
china dish together; also how to get
rid Of nervousness? I am only nine
teen years old, but am very nervous
MAY F..
Take a very thick solution of gum
arabic and water and stir into IL
plaster of paris until the mixture
becomes thick paste. Apply 1t
with brush to the broken edges
and press together.
Perhaps your nervousness Is due
to the fact that you do not have
plenty of sleep and nourishing foods
Why not consult physician and
get a tonic?

luton of sports models into after

silk.
In the transition the rolling collar
disappeared and fat bands of Delft
blue linen outline the neck opening,
which is just large enough to go over
the head. This blouse owes It's pc
cular charm to it's buttonlessness and
hooklessness.

To Wash Silk Stockings
Dear Miss Doom

Dear Miss Doom:
Is there any special way to wash
silk stockings so that they will last
a long time? ! always find that
have runners" in my stockings
after a second washing. ANNA D.
Before the stockings are worn let
them soak in luke-warm water to
which has been added one table,
spoonful of vinegar. Wiring and dry.
Silk stockings should be washed in
cold water, with a little white soap.
Rinse them in cold water, lay them
fiat in towel and roll the towel
lightly, then rub them with a piece
of dry flannel to give them gloss
Tt is best to. wash one pair at a
time, as they must not be left in
the water. Silk stockings washed
in this way win always look new
and last much longer, but, of
course, 1t takes time, more time
than the old way.

Food placed in the oven to bake is
sometimes forgotten by the busy
housewife who has many other
things on her mind.
To save that waste which comes

forgetfulness, an alarm clock will be

If the alarm Is set at the hour the

for tennis Is made of white buck

The tan Is used at the toes and

the toe and heel arrangement of tan
leather takes much of the soil that
would otherwise fall on the defense

little trouble to keep clean.
