Seals Again Plentiful.

Under the precautions taken to pre-
vent the extinction of the fur seals in
Alaska and the Pribilof islands the
species has multiplied so rapidly that
the bureau of fisheries now recon.
mends that the killing of male seals
be resumed.
Ever since the signing Of the pc.
lagic treaty between Russia. England.
Japan and our own nation, prohibit.
ing the destruction of COW seals upon
the high seas, the government has
taken an occasional census of the
seals The last of these fixed the
number of seals owned by the United
States at 301, S44, as against less than
twenty thousand in 1906.
Besides fur, other possible use of the
seal is being considered by the bureau
OF fisheries. The scarcity OF the
worlds meat supply and the tremen.
dous increase in seals as revealed by
the last census suggest the shipping
of seal meat to the United States for
food Those who have tasted II say
that meat from young seal is deli.
cious in flavor and that seal steak
would be a popular addition to fash
iOnable hotel menu.

her to come out and see the Siletz

voice she laid jealous hand over the
papers, hurriedly pushed them back

had been waiting, gave overimpetus to
the cautious motion and showed them

started for the road to intercept the
basket-bearers. but Siletz, sitting in
the west door with her chin in her

The heat was intense for the coast

hills were blue as turquoise. She
watched Sandry and Miss Ordway for

The word trailed off suddenly. leav-

Ordway were strolling back. They
stopped a moment at the forked stick
and Poppy Ordway dropped Sandry's
letter, re-sealed, into the sack before
his very eyes. 1t was a daring thing
to do and it set her blood leaping for
joy in her own GOODNESS. When they
reached the camp she went directly
to her room.
1t was long time before she came
out again. and Sandry had gone. When
she did she stood in the doorway and
looked at Siletz, white and filled with
towering anger, and Siletz, looked
back as white. They were women,
pure and simple, and they matched in
that moment their wit and their
strength. Miss Ordway knew by that
look that Siletz had those papers
more, that she knew their contents
but she dared not say a word. If the
girl should show them to Sandry,
should destroy them She was al
most on the point of flinging herself
upon the slim, dark creature risen
along the doorpost, and fighting for
possession of her property. But there
was something sickening in the steady
CLINT of those dark eyes, in the half
wild crouch of the slender body. and
she only stood and held to the Intel,
consumed with a wrath that could
have killed.
But the wrath OF Siletz was worse
1T would have killed, forgetful of the
Preacher. whose word had been her
simple law of life, forgetful of Sandry,
who had become her pattern in his
sanity and judgment.
With an effort the woman moistened
her lips.
"Did-did you find--a bunch of-let-
ters?" she asked between her gripping
teeth
And Siletz, for the first time in her
life, choked down her literal fear of
damnation and lied.
Lord, forgive me-" she whispered
first, and then, No"
