OF Manchester. England, after years Of
experiment has Just found a way to
make cotton cloth fireproof, and this
without injuring either its appearance
or its wearing quality. Before the
association OF cotton manufacturers,
held the second week in October, 1918.
the professor exhibited some speci.
mems OF his cloth that had been
washed at least ten times since be-
Ing treated and had been In actual use
two years. After repeated trials It
was found impossible to make the
pieces OF cotton burn. This invention
Ia very important because II is ex.

her on board the transatlantic liner,
But, not having seen her for seven
years, he did not know whether she
would recognize him.
1t is easy to play hide-and-seek on

first four days he only caught fugitive
glimpses of the girl; then, on the
fifth, they came face to face upon the
deck. And he saw that she knew
him.

looking at her dumbly. She was hard

anly figure and a certain usefulness
of expression which had not been
there in the old days in London.
How long ago that was! The same
thought occurred to both of them.

away eternally.
