Painting a Pine Floor.

Deck paint is the technical name of
the paint that was used on white
pine Aitchen floor. Three coats were
given, and as it contained consider
able dryer, it dried overnight. When
the last coat was thoroughly dry it
was treated like a hardwood floor
with a coat of floor wax. This pro-
tected the paint and made the floor
easier to take care of.

CHAPTER ~.
"The O'ReiIly"

Age and easy living had caused Don
Mario de Castano, the sugar merchant,
to take on weight. He had. in truth,
become so fat that he waddled like a
penguin when he walked; and when he
rode. the springs of his French vic
toria gave up In despair.
In disposition Don Mario was prac-
teal and unromantic: he boasted that
he had never had an Illusion, never an
interest outside of his business. And
yet, on the day this story opens, this
prosaic parsonage. In spite of his bulg-
Ing waistband and his taut neclband,
In spite of his short breath and his
prlckly heat, was In a very whirl of
pleasurable excitement. Don Mario, In
fact, suffered the greatest of all illu-
sions: he was In love, and he believed
himself beloved. The object of his
alteration was little Rosa Varona the
daughter Of his one-time friend Este
ban. To be sure, he had met Rosa only
twice since her return from her Yankee
school, but twice had been enough t:
with prompt decision he had resolved
to do her the honor OF making her his
wife.
Notwithstanding the rivulets OF per-
spiration that were coursing down
every fold of his flesh, and regardless
of the fact that the body of his victoria
was tipped at drunken angle, as If
struggling to escape the burdens of his
great weight, Don Mario felt n jaunii-
ness of body and Of spirit almost like
that of youth. He saw himself as a
splendid prince riding toward the
humble home Of some obscure maiden

The woman gasped she choked she
could scarcely force the question for
fear of disappointment. Tell me there
is, Sebastian. I've heard so many lies
that l begin to doubt"
The old man nodded. "Oh, yes, there
Is n treasure" said he.
"Oh! You have seen it?" Isabel
was trembling as IL with an ague.
"What is II IKE? How much is there?
Good Sebastian, I'll give you water !;
I'll have you set free II you tell me-"
"How much? don't know. But
there is much-pieces of Spanish gold,
silver coins In casks and In little boxes
the boxes are bound with iron and
have hasps and staples; bars of
precious metal and little paper pack
ages OF gems, all tied up and hidden in
leather bags"
"Yes! Go on"
There are ornaments, too. God
knows they must have come from
