WESTERN WASHINGTON'S PRAIR1ES.

With the comment that the farmers in the Yem
district are doing their share the Tacoma Trlb-
une discusses this the second irrigation project in
Western Washington, and after noting the fact
that owners of prairie lands throughout this
ton of the state 'are watching anxiously for the
final results, predicts that successful irrigation
will mean marvellous development of lands which
are now lying idle
The fact that the project was originated by the
Yelm farmers financed by them and completed
without a cent of Indebtedness at cost of $780,
600, is emphasized in this editorial it is empha-
sized by every person who acquaints himself with
the details of the project. Much there remains to
be done, of course-the farmers have a fight on
their hands with the water power trust, for one
thing-but surely we have in this as excellent an
example of the value and performance of prop
ery organized and properly managed cooperative
effort as can be found anywhere.
Thurston county does not now realize, perhaps,
what that irrigation project will to it in an
agricultural way, but it will not be long now be-
fore the results begin to show themselves and
Thurston county prides itself today upon the fact
that it has within it's boundaries farmers who can
see ahead plan ahead and work ahead until they
succeed in that which they set out to do.

SPOTS ON vARNISHED TABLE
BIemishes That Annoy Housewife May Be Eliminated if Proper Methods
 Are Employed.

The white spots which appear on the top of the table, due to the acci- dental application of heat from hot dishes need not worry careful house wife long if she will remember that the original appearance of the var nish may be restored by simply re- forming it's surface. To do this 1t is necessary to apply some varnish sol vent-not varnish remover-and then allow 1t to dry. The most easily obs tained solvents are alcohol and ann monia. Moisten bit of clean cloth with the solvent, rub it quickly over the white spot, then let 1t dry. Per. init the moistened cloth to touch the varnish but few seconds for as soon as the varnish Is acted upon by the solvent 1t will rub off, leaving the wood on the table bare.-L. s.

 k.MARY GRAHAM BONNER,
cHIPMUNKs ADVENTURE.

little Chippy Chappy had been the name given to Mrs Chipmunk's youngest Son." said Daddy. "He was a very fine Son, and Mrs. Chipmunk was very, very proud of him. In the first place he was most beautifully marked and all the other Chipmunks from far and near came to see the fine markings on his little soft. furry body. And his tail was very bushy and full. Altogether he was a beautiful Chip munk and it wasn't surprising in the slightest degree that Mrs. Chipmunk should be so proud of him.
 But alas and alacki all the Chip hunks around told Chippy Chappy how wonderful he was. They not only told him he was beautiful, but they told him he was very wise and clever and smart. Now, he wasn't so very smart if the truth is to be told.
 Strangely enough he was not in the least bit conceited about his beauty, but the minute he was told he was clever and smart he whisked his tall about and made up his mind to have some wonderful adventures so he could prove to all the other Chip hunks that he was even cleverer than they thought.
 Vt was fine sunny morning when Chippy Chappy started off on his first adventure. He thought he would take a trip so he could relate how the world looked to him. On and on he scampered and ran feeling ever so we'll on such perfect day.
 "He hadn't gone very far when he saw some Pear trees that looked quite nice, so he hurried to the orchard where they were. Up the first tree he scrambled, and then when he had taken some delicious bites of the juicy Pear from that tree, he jumped across to the next one, where the Pears looked even better.
 'But down on the earth, from out of a nearby farmhouse came a Cat strolling along. In the Cats eyes were hungry gleams as he caught sight of little Chippy Chappy.
 "Yes,' muttered the Cat to himself, the Cook didn't give me a good break

ALL NEED CHANGE OF DIET
Winter Foods Should Not Be contln- ued During the Hot Days of
 the Summer.

Change of diet is just as essential to good health, once the warm weather arrives, as change of clothes. No one would think of dressing fn heavy woolens, furs and velvets with the thermometer soaring. Why, then, feed the system during the hot days with the same sort of heavy food which makes up the winter menu?
 Too few housewives realize that the body craves change of diet once the warm weather sets in. They go on serving in May hot soups, steaming meats, heavy desserts, just as though it were the middle of winter and then wonder why their families do not seem to relish their food.
 Begin in May to serve summer meals, for warm weather is then here and change of diet is necessary to good health. Make the first change in the appearance of the table. If you have been in the habit of using cloths use doilies during the sum- mer season, as they give the appear ance of coolness and summer comfort. They are, too, great saving of labor during the warm weather season. It is no idle task to wash out big table cloth once berry stain mars it's pristine beauty, but if dolly be- comes soiled how easy it is to take this single piece and dip 1t into the tub. During the berry and fruit sea- son, when so many spots are ant t0 appear no matter how careful the din- CTS, this labor-saving scheme should be given consideration.
 Some housewives go so far as to substitute the paper doilies for the linen ones, throwing them away as they become soiled. These come in so many pretty designs and are so mex pensive that this form of table adorn- ment Is both pretty and economical.

 "Yes, Gabrielle Smith. You see, after all, we have met again. Won't you shake hands?''
 His eyes wandered past her down the path.
 "No. You ought not to be speaking to me. A respectable woman does not speak to common soldier of the | Legion.
 Doesn't she? How interestingI One is always learning in this wonder full civilization of ours. Only as it happens I am not respectable. I told you that once before"
 Her cool irony brought a flash of insane laughter to his eyes.
 "Who the devil are you, thenY' he l asked savagely.
 Dear me, you have quite lost your nice English indifference, MT. Far quhar. Pm not sure it isn't an im- provement. Who I am? We'll, you know my name, and at the present mo- ment I am companion to Madame Ar naud-helping her to forget that she isn't English any more. English peo- pie think it's wrong to admire for eigners. It's their idea of patriotism. Madame Arnaud assures me she must have bit of dear old England about her, and I am the bit. That's all."
 Why did you come?" He was looking at her again. Through the dusk she saw the white, tortured suspense on the hard face. She wore rose in the severe corsage of her dress. She took it and handed it to him.
 "She sent you this-in token of re- membrance"
 He took her hand and kissed 1t.
 "You have come like an angel into my life," he said.
 He watched her until her small, en- | ergetic figure had disappeared among the shadows.
 In the distance a bugle called a mel anchoIy retreat
 He lifted the rose reverently to his lips.

But never mind, shall make up for 1t now. have been thinking for a long time that my digestion wasn't good. It's eating the same things all the time. I must have a change of food-that's what I must have.
 And the Cat went quietly along. Soon he was under the Pear tree, and looked up. He was wondering whether to climb up the tree right away or to wait little while--if he waited the Chipmunk would taste even better-but still he was hungry nowl For the Cat was thinking of poor little Chippy Chappy as his new breakfast.
 "Chipny Chappy saw the Cat below the trees, but 1t was the first time he had ever seen Cat. You see, he had never been out without his family, and he had only been in the world such a very, very short time that he didn't know that there were many dangerous things he must not have anything to do with. He expected the Cat to admire him, for, of course, he was used to nothing else but praise.
 Well he said in very friendly way, I don't know who you are or what you are, but I'd like to be friends and have you tell me how hna1fff1rl opd cy,, o r+ r ox,,
 "The Cat grinned-a big, broad grin. He simply had never had such funny thing happen in all his life. You're beautiful, but you don't know thing mot thing-not even a Cat--you should have known me without being told-most of your family do. You're very, very stupid But then the Cat said, Meow for the Chipmunk did look very delicious! And up the tree he went, caught hold of the Chip hunks bushy tail and dragged him down to the earth.
 sUh-Uh-r-r-r shrieked the Chip munk. And just then Fairy hap pened near.
 "'Oh, King Thunderp the Fairy shouted. Come, come quickr And sudden crash of Thunder came so suddenly that the Cat dropped Chippy Chappy. Another clap of Thunder came and then flash of Lightning and a terrible storm arose.
 "sHurry away, Chippy Chappy,' said the Fairy, and off he scampered to his home. His family nursed his poor, hurt tail, hct they told him never again to forget that beauty and wis dom were the same, for he still had lots, lots to learn before he'd be Rise."

 "Silvia, be silent! I dare not listen to you. You don't know what you are saying"
 q know what I am saying, and you must listen. When a man destroys something, it is no more than just that he should see what he has done.

And now you are like the rest-nothing- nothing" She turned away. q wish to God I had not met you, Richard"
 He did not attempt to detain her. He stood there like man struck to death by treacherous blow, and she went on down the path to the gate where her companion waited for her. There she paused for moment.
 q want you to go back to that man." she said carelessly. "He is an old acquaintance who went wrong, and it might be rather unpleasant for my husband if he grew importunate. Tell him that on no account must he speak to me again. It is very regrettable, but mistakes of that sort bring their own punishment. You understand, Miss Smith?'
 .sYes, Madame Arnaud."
 "Thank you will wait for you outside the public cemetery. It is get ting dark"

Wash them.
 Don't scrape them.
 The skin must be intact.
 This is an important item.
 If broken, the flavor and color goes. Boil slowly an hour, drain and rub off the skins.
 They may be diced and covered with cream sauce.
 They're better with the simple French dressing.
 Slice them into 1t while they are hot and they're delicious.
 You know the proportion, three or four times as much oil as vinegar and pepper and salt to taste.

CHAPTER vIi.
A Meetina.

A MSetln4.
 In Sidi-bel-Abbes there is a pleasant avenue, shaded by silver birch and red olent of all the sweet perfumes of the East, where the local potentates gather in a select exclusive circle. In the courtyard of one such of these houses Colonel Destinn sat and smoked an after-tea cigarette. His kepi lay on the broad balustrade beside him, and his head was thrown back in an atti- tude of easy contentment.
 "You pour out tea charmingly, madame" he said. "A second cup would stife the last regret that should have gone so far against my principles as to drink a first.'
 She looked up at him. The soft re. dection from the low, white walls around them enhanced her ethereal beauty and added the subtle glamour with which the eastern light surrounds the least and most lovely object. Very delicately she obeyed his request, the soft, rich lace sleeve of her teagown slipping back to reveal the rounded arm and slender over-fragile wrist.
 Do your principles compel you to live only for your soldiers?'' she asked lightly.
 He laughed.
 Living for them is perhaps too much of euphemism," he said "They would be more grateful if I did the other thing. But otherwise it is true. I have not put my foot under hos pitable roof for twenty years"
 Had you no one who" She hesi- tated, a sudden color in her cheeks, and he leaned forward, his hands loosely interlocked between his knees, his handsome, ruthless face grave and intent.
 No. I hadn't anyone, Madame Ar naud."
 Her gaze faltered under his steady, piercing eyes.
 What is your country, Colonel De- stinn?
 T do not know, madame. I have forgotten" There was little silence, in which the fountain played silvery intermezzo, and then he went on in an altered tone: You are the first per son who has made wish to remember"
 She was looking up at him again with studied frankness, behind which there lurked something hypnotized, fas- cinated.
 He turned carelessly from her.
 "Ah, Arnaud, you there? You see, have been breaking up the principles of years to entertain your wife. If you leave her too much alone you will find these English roses fade very quickly in this dreary place. Man, don't look as if you had seen the devil"
 The young officer, hesitating on the edge of the low veranda, recovered himself with an effort.
 My colonel-I was taken aback. I had not expected-but am delighted and most honored. beg of you to let me enjoy the pleasure"
 "No, no, Arnaud. We see enough of each other elsewhere, and, moreover. have pressing engagement with three deserters from the Eleventh com pany. Au revoir, madame--and thank youy'

Cabbage sIaw.

Take head of cabbage and slice very thin. Wash and put in kettle with just water enough to cover. Sim mer slowly until tender, then drain and add enough milk to cover and some salt and pepper to taste. If you have some gravy from roast, add, but if not add a good-sized piece of butter. Serve very hot.

Making a Mattress Pad.

Make cover of cheesecloth, meas. uring 1t quarter of yard all around larger than the mattress. Then spread 1t on the mattress, padding 1t thick with cotton, just the size of the mat tress. Tie 1t and leave quarter of a yard around without any cotton in to tuck in around the mattress. This does away with any clumsiness and does not pull away from the edge.
