Little Economies In Kitchen Pointed
Out In Brief Warnings.
The housewife must remember that
when trying to save the little things
one usually discards there must be
system. Have a definite place for bits
and look them over constantly.
Beware also these little wastes, as
they mount up into many dollars:
Dried fruits left unprotected to grow
wormy.
Good sheets used for the ironing
Flatirons wiped on the ironing sheet
instead of cloth or paper.
Napkins used for dish towels and
dish towels for holders.
Soap left to waste in dishwater.
Soup set away covered while hot to
sour.
Mops and brooms not hung up and
carpet brooms used to scrub with.
Tin dishes or wash boilers set away
wet to rust.
Wooden pals and washtubs left dry
to fall apart.
Real kitchen preparedness lean

Desperate Ride

1t hardly seemed a chance at all but
we were forced to call 1t one so long
as there was nothing better. OF course
twas Tarpon's work, Tarpon, whose
murderous band my stout friend had
restrained and who had done this other
murder just to bring al avenging
posse down on Jack In a humor that
would render inquiries few and ex-
plantations useless.
Bill Morgan brought the word 1t
seemed a strange %unbending of the out
laws spirit. Perhaps his own wild,
hunted life led him to pity In his I'M
couth way a victim run to earth with
out warning, Or possibly he had some
personal memories to be avenged.
Anyway he told us just before day
break of the cowardly crime that had
been fastened so Enthusiastically and so
unjustly upon Jack and of the furious
pursuers close upon our trail.
Before us were the mountains, grim
and full Of dangers for the stranger
fugitive, but to this score of relentless
followers home. Some forty miles be-
hind lay Halseyville-and safety, for
half her leading ~citizens-the mayor
himself, to say nothing of his fair
daughter-would have sworn to Jacks
presence at a banquet given In our
honor at the very time the murder was
committed miles away. But between
our camp and vindication rode a re-
lentless, ~uninquiring foe with a single
purpose-and a halter. The outlook
was gloomy enough for poor Jack.
1t seemed that / was not connected
with the crime. That, too, was Far
pon's skillful planning, or perhaps my
government position saved me. Venge-
ance was to be taken upon Jack alone,
my great, rough, buly friend with the
heart of a lion or a woman, as the occa-
sion called for courage or for kindness.
When only a single course is possible
one can think quickly what to do. l

cred from the luxurious pasture of the
foothills, and, throwing the saddle over
her back, jerked up the glrth so tightly
that she fiinched and snapped at me.
Then, finging the other saddle on Jacks
horse. we headed her off Gro the
country toward her old home alone. As
she turned and looked back at Corenca,
paving impatiently at the restraint, a
sharp crack of the whip encouraged
the eagerness of her departure. Soon
she Disappeared from view III the uifn

KNIT YOUR BIT.
How to Make Three Useful Articles For
GaiInrc

How to Make Three Useful Articles For
Sailors.
The word has gone forth that a warm
sailor is better than a cold one. This
is no sentimental catch phrase; it is a
literal physiological fact. A warm
sailor can work and fight with a stead
Ter nerve, with an increased physical
efficiency, with a higher courage, for
the effect of warmth is to stimulate.
Now, then, what can you, as a wo-
man, do about it? You, a woman with
a pair of knitting needles, can keep at
least one sailor warm. And remember,
the sailor that you keep warm is going
to be a better defender of your flag.
The government supplies many of his
wants, but there are three articles not
supplied, and these are the sleeveless
knitted jacket, the muller and the
Wristlets. He will use them when he
is doing exposed work-this may be
laying a mine or serving on picket
duty or in submarine and patrol boat
service. The comforts committee Of
the Navy League of the United States,
with headquarters in Washington and
at 500 Fifth avenue. New York, will
help you to form an organization for
knitting or TO purchase wool or will
receive your finished articles that
you've made alone In odd times when
Susie was quiet in the bathtub or
Johnny busy feeding the rabbits. But
if you are going to knit do it according
to directions. Here they are:

Jack. Then after a silent handshake
went lodging In among the heavy
shadows OF the mountain canyons,
leaving me alone with my wonderful
COrenca, whose speed was matchless
and whose temper was the devils own.
If he could only evade capture while /
rode to Halseyville for help! Twice
forty odd miles would have to be GOV
cred, and the hope was slight, but Co
renca vas a wonderful foundation upon
which to build it. If the foe should
lose ever a little time on the false
trail of the other horse and Jack get a
few extra hours, just a few, where each
moment gained was glinted with gold!
My thoroughbred mare, chatting and
tugging at the bit as we swept out into
our long, hard trip, set me to wonder
ing whether l spared her most by hold
ing her in or letting her have her head.
l tried to compromise, but she willed
it otherwise, and the ground slipped
away under her feet like a smooth un-
ming belt from the fywheel of some
ponderous machine. 1t seemed as If
she knew the need for haste and scorn-
ed a suggestion of her own limitations.
The only notice my restraining hand
received was an impatient toss of her
shapely head and a savage jerk at the
reins-
In less than an hour-oniy an hour
behind poor Jack / thought, with a
sinking heart-I saw our grim pur-
suers In the road before me, but all
