not know it, nor was the impulse of his

very much confused when an amused
cough from behind them told that

Great Scott" he said, aglow with
genial satisfaction. Talk about ex-
element! The whole plant is IN an
uproar"
What is It, iudge?" the owner of
the plant inquired.
Why, didn't you send a message out
there by Higgins?"
"'Er-yes, l did,
well, that's what they're cheering
about. The men are yelling themselves
hoarse and the boys are dancing with
Joy" The Judge was beaming like a
full moon with gray tufts Of hair above
it's ears. You'd think Bedlam had
broken loose They're yelling for you,
Broadway. Come out and let them see
you"
Broadway was in state Of panic, Of
blue funk, of sheer. unspeakable af-
fright. He ducked and looked about
as if endeavoring to find that avenue
through which escape would be easiest.

pitifully.
They might have let it go at that
had not the cheering within the works
broken out afresh.
Listen to that" the judge adiured
him, and urged him with a happy hand
upon his elbow
His wife went to his assistance. "Oh,
do go out and say something, Broad
way!"
Yes" the Judge insisted, come and
make q speech"
II can't say anything said the mis-
cradle and frightened Broadway. Il
never made a speech in my life!"
Josie, smiling gently turned from
them. When again she faced them she
held in her hand the paper she had
thrust so recently into that sacred,
secret place. Read this to them, ="
she suggested.

Eorax Water for Stains.

Keep upon your toilet table a bottle
of borax solution, made by dissolv-
ing a teaspoonful of powdered borax
in pint of hot water. When the
first suggestion of soil appears upon
any of your light cloth gowns rub
the spot with piece of absorbent cot
ton wet with the solution. This sim
pie operation will remove dust, mud
spots and perspiration stains. 1t is
better than gasoline or naphtha, as
it's application does not leave the ugly
circle of stain that so frequently fol
lows the use Of other cleaning fluids.

She shook her head. I'VE did. They
refused to handle us at all. They do

He was quick to deny this. He did

as the crowd approached across the

roar Of cheering was renewed. He

door were the Judge and Mrs. Spots

but elated. He rushed forward, grasp
ing Wallace's hand, greatly to the
latter's surprise.
