Ward came into sight through the lit
tie meadow. riding slowly, with both
hands clasped over the horn Of the sad
die, his hat tilted back on his head and
his whole attitude one Of absolute con
tent with life. He saw Billy Louise
almost a. soon % she glimpsed him
and abe had been watching that bit OF
road quite closely. He dipped the reins
to one side and turned from the trail tC
ride straight up the slope to where she
was.
Billy Louise, with q self reproachful
glance at the grave, ran down the slope
to meet him-an unexpected welcome,
which made Wards heart leap In his
chest.

with his hands stu clasped over the

that hidden smile-and something else.

Louise glanced over her shoulder and
lowered her voice instinctively, as we
all do when death has come close and
stopped. "Jase died last night; that's

solitary alone with him. Awkward,
she dug that grave her ownself and
took him up and buried him! And,
Ward, she-she wheeled him up In the

She couldn't carry him. But isn't 1t
awful" Her hands were up, patting
and smoothing the neck Of his horse,
and her face was bent to hide the tear
that stood in her eyes and the culver
Of her mouth.
Several minutes they stood there
talking. while Billy Louise patted the
horse absently. and Ward looked down
at her and did not miss one little light
or shadow In her face.

Ward, q q matter Of course. tied his

cabin with her. He also asked her to

did after 4 good deal Of rummaging.

and wiped the dishes with much APP

EXPENSIVE RUGS
FOR DAINTY FEET
The Departmental School Heads
Secure K|earfIax Comforts
In Glencoe Quarters.

Supt. Hoke no sooner had set
tied his bevy Of charming female
supervisors in the aristocratic
Glencoe building than there arose
an insistent demand for some
handsome rugs to protect their
feet against the rude and boorish
hardwood floor. -
Utterly without regard to the
conditions of the times and the
need for suburban school build
ings for the commoners, purchase
of four Klearfax rugs was nego-
tiated, that concession being made
/ to the EDO It for and to Duluth
clarion, in the snug sum Of $245.
When that bill came up for con-
currence, director Firoved said
"Nay, nay, Pauline. Never in the
history of these schools, has
the superintendent office been
rugged, therefore I object to rug
ging the nests Of the supervisors. I"
Further negotiations followed,
with the result that the Klearhax
folk, every ready to come to the
relief of beauty in distress,
dropped their price to $145, a most
liberal discount Of 100 big, round
dollars. ..-.-
The deal then was closed with
out real protest but some mutter-
ing from director Firoved. The
Klearfax rugs were gently tucked
under the dainty Tribes of the
supervisors. The goose honked
high and all seemed well.
Now comes a grapevine telegram
from the aristocratic Glencoe
building that some absent-minded
and clumsy handed supervisoress
recently spilled an entire bottle of
ink on the rug under her No. 2's
and, so far, by no known process
has it been possible to eradicate
or erase that terrible ink stain.
That damned spot will not out
and director Proved is really
cross about it. 1t inks his eyes

ing arm were pinched and disturbed.
Three of DR.. Riesland's treatments
put John Helmer's disabled and ach-
ing arm into perfect condition and it
remains that way today.
Mr.. Helmer's daughter was a stu
dent in the state university. Tuber-
culosis seized an advanced trench in
her lungs. DR.. Riesland went after
the trouble, correcting spinal twists
and displacements so effectively that,
in a few months, Miss Elizabeth re-
turned to her studies, cured. She
has had no recurrence Of her trouble,
although oyer two years have
passed by.
John Helmer's sister, Mrs. s. H.
Higgins, was sent to Fergus Falls
for a mental disorder about six years
ago. She failed to improve in the
state institution, therefore was taken
to the Mound Park Sanatorium in St.
Paul, where DR.. Riggs had her case
for fifteen months. No cure being
effected, on advice of Lr. Moore Of
Eveleth, the afflicted woman was
taken to the South Side Sanatorium
in st. Paul where DR.. Jones treated
her for seven months, without sue
cess.

her mind still impaired, DR.. Ries-

ing, then the statutory Is days had
not elapsed.
In the fifth place, the records of
the board show that the special meet
ing was legally called. Publication
of proceedings on May q, 1915, so
shows, but such publication is not in
accordance with real facts. The
county auditor, who merely is the
clerk of the board of county COM
missioners, falsitied the records.
In the sixth place, the published
proceedings state that legal call
was signed by the commissioners
May IL. The facts are that they
were signed not earlier than May 21,
probably May "a, in at least some
cases. There is documentary evil
dence to prove this statement.
At that time, county auditor Hal:
den absolutely dominated majority
of the board of county commission
ers. What Halden said personally or
through chief deputy Walker, was
implicitly obeyed by majority.
Some of the commissioners who
took part in that illegal sale of bonds
and payment of commission frankly
admit it. In extenuation, they plead
the fact that they were new to county
business and were neither properly
informed nor advised. Others acted
as a matter of habit and custom, at
the auditorial request.
St. Louis county's bonds have a
confirmed habit of selling at pre-
MUM. Many times since then, even
bigger patches of bonds than that
sold through the kindly Myers have
brought very substantial premiums.
Early in 1917 an issue of $160,O00
worth of ditch bonds sold at pre-
MUM of $4,64O.OO. Just a few
weeks ago, an issue of something like
$4,000 brought premium near
$1,7O0.
Had county auditor Halden obeyed
the law himself and helped the COM
missioners to understand and obey it.
in that Myers bond deal, he would
and could have saved the poor old
county anywhere from $4,000 to
81, 900 instead of paying out $4,000
for a commission.
But the bonds belonged to the rich
old county. Mr.. Myers needed COM
mission just then and Halden was
under obligations of some sort to
him. Why worry, therefore? Neither
Halden, Myers nor a majority of the
commissioners did worry. They let
the taxpayers do the worrying.
Some months after the illegal sale
of bonds in the sum of $4,000 and
the payment CT a needless commits
sion of $4,000 to Fred B. Myers, d
dignifed grand jury asked a few
questions about acts and methods OF
the board of county commissioners.
It is believed that at least one COM
missioner, the first one elected for a
long time against the expressed
wishes of Halden, told the solemn old
grand jury about that bond deal.
County attorney Greene, an official
usually most amenable to auditor
Halden's welfare and wishes, did not
seem to take must interest in the
lone commissioners story. It is al
legged, in fact, that he asked ques-
lions in such a savage and discon-
certing way that the commissioner
was discouraged or scared out, there
fore real light was not thrown on the
matter.
