A homemade hytrap which has been

The bottom frame Of the trap Is
made by fitting two fiat barrel hoops

of the frame is made in the same way,
but round board is fitted tightly into
the hoops to form the top. In the top

mo! All That 10 Over" She Said.
And he rose abruptly and took a few
quick, restless steps about the room.
"Why-what an imaginaton!' he
exclaimed, forcing a laugh at last.
Really, Ethel, you're quite absurd!'
But always, before we were mar
r1ed, you were SO kind, so thoughtful.
You talked only Of pretty things. But
now, always it is the deet-the navy.
You seem interested only in their
plans, their secrets. Is it for
that you married me?"
Streetman's patience had reached
the breaking point. And at the ques-
ton he flew into a sudden rage. He
turned face like a thundercloud upon
her.
"And on my side ask why you mar
rfed me? For love? I think
not" he sneered.
His quick anger brought Ethel to
her feet.
"But, Henry"
He waved her answer aside as If it
were not worth his listening to.
"Once, perhaps, I thought So" he
said, talking her down like a common
brawler. But now I hear it was

Brewster had hardly closed the doors
behind him before Ethel Willoughby
appeared.
"Oh, Henry! You surprised me-" she
said.
II came before the Others" Street
man explained, because there is some
thing you must do for me at once"
about the feet, I suppose" she
said, somewhat YEARLY, as she turned
away from him.
"How did you know" he shot the
question at her almost too quickly for
caution. But for the moment he ex-
perienced something approaching
alarm. But her answer treasured him.
Nowadays it is only of the feet
you ask" she tod him. And she re-
garded him win eyes that were pa
thetic, if not reproachful. Once it had
seemed to her that Henry Streetman
was interested in her. But of late she
had been obliged to admit to herself
that that interest had quickly waned.
Her handsome caller paid no atten-
ton to the obvious complaint that lay
In Ethels answer. In the most mat
ter-of-fact fashion he proceeded
straight to the business that was up
permost in his mind.
"You must learn at once from Sir
George where the ships at Spithead
are going" he announced bluntly.
Find out if they sail together, or if
they will disperse-and how"
AS she faced him again there was
beseeching in her voice, her eyes, her
whole manner.
"Wait, Henry, wait!' she begged.
Before we go into that, tell me
when are you going to let people know
we're married?"
Streetman remembered then that he
had a many sided role to play. And
thereupon he went up to the girl; and
taking one Of Ethel's hands in his,
While he put an arm around her. he
looked down at her in a most loverlike
fashion.
"Ah, my dear! I'd let them know
now-this minute-if only could" he
exclaimed.

riase at once" she said quickly.
"Announce our marriage
"Georgy Wagstaff told me just a
few minutes ago that when l said I

piled In tragic tones.
You did not explain?" he asked.
''That we were on our honeymoon?
No! l kept my word to you. l sail
I was in Brighton" She looked at
him in puzzled way as he left her
then and paced the floor in a nervous
fashion.
"Of course, it's easily proved that
was not in Brighton" Ethel continued.
"Georgy seemed to think you and
I Well!-you can imagine what
she must have thought. Oh! why must
there be this secrecy? 1 loathe it,"

The cone for trap of this size

Before inserting the cone, make

Plain Scrubbino.

A woman whose floors are Of the
plain board order that call for much
scrubbing says:
1T has been my experience that in
washing plain board floors it is best
to scrub them with cool, soapy water
without suds. I scrub with the grain
Of the wood, and not around In circles,
as is usually done, to take off the dirt.
If you do this and change the water
often. using plenty of soap, you will
be surprised how white the floor will
become.
