Cause of SeepaEe.
Seepage usually results in one Of
two Ways-either from a rising OF the
ground water above its original level
or by the retention Of applied irriga-
tion water at comparatively shallow
depths below the surface by imper-
viOus soil strata. The seepage caused
by q general rising of the ground
water usually involves larger areas,
and IS. also, more common than that
caused by shale strata. which is usual
Is more local in extent. In the former
case II seems that the underground
water passages, ~ hich are sufficient
in capacity for the water flowing
naturally underground. have been
choked by the added irrigation sup
ply, and gradual ponding in the soil
takes place. In the winter, when irri-
cation supply is wholly or in part
shut off. the ground water surface
lowers. only TO rise again to an in
creasiug elevation during the succeed
ing irrigation season
The surface Of ground water Is repre-
scented graphically by a restless series
OF peaks and valleys. which cores
pond to seasonal use Of water on the
land. The peaks, ever increasing in
elevation, finally break through the
lover surface depression and free
water stands for a period, only to dis
appear during the winter. When the
ground water comes near the surface,

largely responsible for the dangerous

fortunate, for Dc points the way TO a

To Keep Water Down.
The function OF deep drains IS to
keep the ground water level at sut-
ficient depth below the surface TO
prevent the rise Of alkalL They can
not drain below their own depth. and
neither can they efficiently drain
fields thar are supplied with over
abundance Of irrigation Il is pointed
out that drains do not empty the en-
tire underground reservoir, but that
they simply hold down the peak OF
the ground water surface. in order
TO hold down the peak. it is usually
only necessary TO carry off part Of
the water lost by deep percolation-
the part which is not carried off by
natural underground FLOW. The loss OF
comparatively small quantity OF
water by deep percolatiOn may be
guilty Of making necessary an eN-
tensiye drainage system
With these facts recognized. it
seems clearly the duty Of every per-
son in control Of water TO use the
same with the greatest economy. The
neighbors' waste water, the leakE

The financial loss due to loss Of

believe that drains are "cure-alI'

knelt, listened to his heartbeat, then,
satisfied Of his death, ghoulishly rified
his pockets and took from them this
very envelope that had come back into
her hands SO curiously through the
prank Of q mischievOus child.
Into the vivid tableau of that mem
DRY the kneeling figure of Doctor Royce
fitted to perfection. Gloria had sud-
den intuition that she understood the
truth at last. Decor Royce had told
her that her vision was delirium be-
cause it was himself that she had seen.
All his devotion now took on q new
and hideous look. He had not cared
for her. He had meant only to blind
her and divert her from her revenge.
He had nearly succeeded. She had
fritted away her time. She had be-
lieved the Indian chief who said that
it was Royce and not Freneau who bat
tied for her and saved her. She had
allowed herself to think disloyally of
her dead lover. She would exact dou-
BILE vengeance for that.
She advanced at once on the kneel-
ing Royce and cried out upon him:
1T was you, then! You Of all the
people in the world! see you now as
plainly as l did that night, only was
too foolish to suspect you"
what do you mean, Gloria?' Royce
asked hoarsely.
II mean that you had a share in the
murder of my poor lover. You hired
that beast Trask and you went there
to make sure he did his work WELL"
Gloria, Gloria!" Royce sighed, so
deep and honest sorrow in his face
that Gloria was staggered. But only
for moment. Her wrath carried her
on:
you made a fool Of me for q long
time, but you were too clever too long,
and now I know-I know a little at
least, and I'm going to know more.
Why did you kill my Dick.1'
II didn't want to kill him, Gloria. I
knew how you loved him and would
have given my life to keep you from
pain, then as now. You've got to be-
neve me-"
Believe you? When you told me
that all l saw was d1irium7 When
you drugged me that night in the hope
that would forget? When you dragged
his body away and threw it in the
river? Ugh, the horrible brutality Of

that's too false even for you to be-
leve, Gloria" Royce protested. II did
not drag his body away, and you know
it."
II know nothing Of the sort. I
tainted as you stole this envelope
from his body. Do you deny that you
did that?'
Royce stood trembling with confu-
sion. Gloria took his silence for 4
confession. She quivered before the
confirmation Of her charge. From her
weak hand the envelope slipped. As
she bent to recover 1t one of the in
closed letters fell out and the breeze
blew It crisply away, opening It as It
