summer brought deep love to US. He
wants me to become his wife, but
although 1 love him dearly, 1 feel
that marriage would not make us
happy. He could not be happy with
a wife in my profession, as he is a
man who wants his wife in his home,
and 1 know l could not be happy
were I to give up the stage. What
do you advise us to do?
A MISERABLE GIRL.
All I can do Is advise you to make
up your mind what you really want
in this world, and how much you
will sacrifice to have it. None of us
can have everything, and the happy
people are those who have a real
sense of values, and who, knowing
what they prize, make an honest ef-
fort to get it. On the one hand, love
is offered you. On the other hand,
there is a profession which also re-
quires sacrifice, effort, diplomacy,
and which is filled with disappoint-
ments. Balance your love of the
stage, your faith in your own ability
to succeed, against your love of a
man and your faith in your own
ability to make marriage a success.
Which will you choose?

| the same time is the most wonderful
thing for their friendship" Mrs.
Walther, who was JOS mother, and
who adored her. child with ali her
heart, was quick to notice the reluct-
ant expression on her friends coun-
tenance.
Like the girls, these two women
had been close friends for very long
time. They talked over their house,
hold problems with each other, con-
fided their hopes and expectations,
and were the first to enthuse together
when 10 and Martie became engaged
at the same time.
Don't you think so, Kitty" Mrs.
Walther asked anxiously. She knew
that Mrs. Berwick was too fair to
say thing of this kind without some
reason for it.

What was it about?"
About their lives, their married
lives. Just as you said, I had thought
that 10 and Martie would go through
life together friends as you and |
have been. But 10 is not a snob and
Martie is, and for the first time
heard them almost quarrel. 1t all
came about future plans. 10 ran in
to see Martie, all enthusiasm as she
always is, and she exclaimed over
the apartment that she and Bobby
had been looking at.
"Of course it isn't much, Martie,
darling she said, but at least it will
be all ours. Just think of the fun
we four will have when we get to-

Fashions of To-Day By May Manton

Every variation of the little
bolero jacket is fashionable this
season and this one allows of so
many variations that it will
supply a number of costumes.
Here, it is made of serge to match
the skirt and it is worn over a
sleeveless blouse of crepe de chine.
If you want something more
dressy or more fancy, you could
shape the back and round the
fronts at the lower edges and you
could make it without sleeves
and wear it over a blouse of Geor-
gette or of chiffon to which sleeves
are attached. If you want more
of jacket effect you could make
it with the sleeves sewed to the
arm-holes and use those shown
in the small back view in place
of the full ones gathered into
cuffs. The skirt is in four cores
with the back gathered.
For the medium size the jacket
with sleeves will require, I3E

the jacket without sleeves, "a

sleeves will be needed, I "a yards

the journey in his heart just as he
knew his soft muscles would shrink
from the aches of the trail.
The part of the journey to he
made by water was not so pad. Lelt
to his own judgment, he would nave
gone to st. Michael's by boat ana
chartered a small steamer for the
long trip along the coast through
Bering sea. But this would take
time, and Macdonald did not mean
to let him waste a day. He was TO
leave the river boat at the big bend
and pack across country to hamat-
lah. 1t would be a rough, heavy
train. The mosquitoes would be
continual torment4 The cooking
would be poor. And at the end of
the long trip there awaited him
monotonous months in a wretched
coal camp far from all the comforts
of civilization. No wonder he
grumbled.
But though he grumbled at home
and at the club and on the street
about his coming exile, Seltridge
made no complaints to Macdonald.
That man of steel had no sympathy
with the yearning for the fleshpots.
He was used to driving himself
through discomfort to his end. and
he expected as much of his dcpu-
ties. Wherefore Wally took the
boat at the time scheduled ard
waved a dismal farewell to wife and
friends assembled upon the wharf.
Elliot said good-by to the Pagets
and Miss O'Neill ten days later.
Diane was very frank with him.
81 hear you've been sleuthing
around, Gordon, for facts about
Colby Macdonald. don't know what
you have heard about him, but 1
hope you've got the sense to see how
bis man he is and how much this
country here owes him"
Gordon nodded agreement. Eyes,
he's big man."
And he's good" added Sheba
"He never talks of it, but
one finds out splendid things he has
done"
The young man smiled, buC not at
all superciliously. He liked the
staunch faith of the girl in her friend
even though his Investigations had
not led him to accept goodness as
the outstanding quality of the
Scotsman.
II don't know what we would do
him." Diane went on. Give
him ten years and Il free hand and
Alaska will be fit for white people
to live in. These attacks on him by
and magazines are an
It's plain that you are parti-
san," charged Gordon gayly.
I'm against locking up Alaska

and throwing away the key, if that
is what you mean by q partisan.
We need this country opened up
the farms settled, the mines worked,
the coal fields developed, railroads
built.
THE Kusiak chamber of COM
merce ought to send you out as a
lecturer to change public opinion,
Diane. You are one enthusiastic
little booster for freedom of oppor-
tunity," laughed the young man.
"Oh, WE'LL" Diane joined in his
laughter. 1t was one of her good
points that she could laugh at her
self. II dare say I do sound like a
real estate pamphlet, but it's all true
anyhow"
Gordon left Kusiak as reluctantly
as Wally Selfridge had done, though
his reasons for not wanting to go
were quite different. They centered
about a dusky-eyed young woman
whom he had seen for the first time
a fortnight before. He would have
denied even to himself that he was
in love, but whenever he was alone
his thoughts reverted to Sheba
O'Neill
At. the big bend Gordon left the
river boat for his cross-country
trek. Near the roadhouse was an
Indian village where he had ex-
pected to get guide for the jour-
ney to Kamatlah. But the fishing
season had begun, and the men had
all gone down river to take part in
it.
The old Frenchman who kept the
trading-post and roadhouse advised
Gordon not to attempt the tramp
alone.
1.-The trail it ees what you call
dangerous. Feefty- Mile Swamp ees
a monster that swallows men alive,
monsieur You wait one week-two
week-tree week, and some one will
turn up to take you through" he
urged.
But I can't wait. And I have an
official map of the trail. Why can't
I follow it without guide?" Elliott
wanted to know impatiently.
The post shrugged. May
be so, monsieur-maybe not. Feefty-
Mile-it ees one devil of a trail. No
chechakoes are safe in there with
out a guide. I, Baptiste, know"
"Selfridge and his party went
through a week ago. l can follow
the tracks they left"
But if it rains, monsieur, the
tracks will vaneesh, nest ce pas?
Lose the way, and the little singing
folk will swarm in clouds about mon
sieur while he stumbles through the
swamp"
Elliot hesitated for the better
part of a day, then came to an i'm
pulsive decision. He had a reliable
map, and anyhow he had only to
follow the tracks left by the Self
ridge party. He turned his back
upon the big river and plunged into
the wilderness.
There came a night when he
looked up into the stars of the deep,
still sky and knew that he was hun
dreds of miles from any other hu-
man being. Never in all his life had
he been so much alone. He was
not afraid, but there was something
awesome in a world so empty to his
kind.
