You can have young Owens" aha
scornfully told Mary, and gentle Marv
not resenting the taunt implied. oniv
smiled sweetly and said to herself:
I've got him-he told me so onlv
last night, dear, brave, loyal Dale."
The inherited fortune did not turn
put so grand as, was, expected. Hor-
tense, however, set about living IN
wnat there was. She influenced the
rest OF the family with a high hand.
Sne married high flyer of fashion
with more pretense than cash. Her
mother gave them a fine new house.
Within year it was mortgaged for
half what 1t was worth.
Th1ngs did not go very we'll with
Mary and Dale. They had married
ABOUT a year after Hortense had gone
into her own home Mrs. Waters had
died and there was a general break
ing up Of the family.
Mary and Dale began their new life
In modest way. Bright employment
prospects for Dale had been suddenly
blighted by the failure of the firm
with which he had taken service.
Always was the cherished Borneo
apple hung from a hook in the wall
in the dining room. 1t continued to
d1fuse its rare spiciness. Just as last.
ing was Mary's memory of the kind
old wanderer who had truly loved her.
There were harsh, pinching times.
but Mary was brave and Dale reliant
He laughed one night as they sat
down to supper and he noticed a new
addition to the family, maltese cat
Have to take in all the blind, Grip
pied and homeless, eh, little woman ?"
"Oh, will eat little less" smiled
Mary sweely. "Oh, dear!"
''The cat is going to have a fit!"
shouted Dale in some concern, spring
ing from his seat.
In true feline style their new guest
whirled about the room Mary jumped
to chair in 61smay as it upset q
vase of flowers. Dale captured the
animal and put It out of doors after
it had climbed the walls half dozen
times. He came back to the dining
room to find Mary in tears over the
wreck of the cherished Borneo apple.
The maltese had torn it loose and
the dry pulpy mass had parted in
ruins.
"And treasured it SOL" sobbed gen.
tie Mary.
Look here, see what was inside-a
little porcelain box" spoke Dale, pick
ing it up. "And look here!" he shout
ed, as he opened it.
Mary almost screamed with sur.
prise. From a silky resting place
there looked up at them a dozen bril-
liant gems.
Dear Uncle Benz" murmured Mary.
Wise Uncle Ben," supplemented
Dale. "He counted on your years Of
patience and provided a due reward"
When Hortense moved from the
mortgaged home, Dale and Mary moved
in. That Borneo apple had supplied
the means to make a new business
start for the one and a new home
life for both.

New Stars.

Some of the phenomena presented
by so-called new stars" at a late
stage in their history have been re-
Gently investigated. 1t was generally
thought that these stars, in their last
stages, presented nebular spectrum,
but in 1907 Hartmann directed atten-
ton to the case of Nova Persei (1901),
the spectrum of which, in its later
stages, no longer presented the chler
nebular lines. 1t is interesting to de-
termine whether ell novae behave In
this manner. AS the result of num-
Der of observations it is suggested
that this is indeed the case, close
correspondence being pointed out De-
tween the stars called Wolf-Rayet
stars and temporary stars in the later
stages of their history. The hypotnesis
that the phenomenon Of temporary
star is due to a star entering neDuiA
is deserving of some attention SINGS
with the emergence of the chle1 neD-

gence of the stars from the nepuia--

Many Sheep Pass Over

Over Is, 600 head of sheep pass
annually from the St. Johns
country in Apache county and
from places in Navajo county,

and arriving at the. great shear

Phoenix, sometime in March.
Here they are sheared and many
OF them are sold. The herds are
then started back again. The

reservation for them to pass
through. varies in width from
a mile to two miles and runs
over the toughest part of the
mountains. The sheep are kept
within this zone by herders and
well trained dogs. Some of
these dogs are so valuable that
their owners would not sell them
for $1,000, so keen are they in
carrying out their duties.
At night huge bonfres are
built on each side of the zone
line by the herders of each band
of sheep. Last Saturday and
Sunday $1,000 head of sheep
went through Reno Pass. They
were divided into herds of 5000
each. The herders of the fore
most band built fires to signal
to the other herders behind and
they answered by doing the
same. Sunday night we could
see all these fires which ranged
for a distance of fifteen miles,
almost on a bee line with each
other. The trail blazed by pas
sage of the sheep is as bare of
vegetation as an alkali fiat
