The Office door opened again. 1t
was just "Geordie'' Grant Geordie
was bubbling over with a joke, as
usual but for once Eric wasn't in
curt and businesslike, but that didn't
dampen Geordie's ardor.
swell, have you found her" Geordie
asked, as he sat on a corner Of Eric's
desk.
"Whom?" asked Eric, assuming in
nocence and hiding his annoyance.
"Why, Miss Cinderella, the lady who
lost her slipper-or, pardon me-rub
Der. It's rubber this time, isn't it?"
Geordie's laugh was altogether too
loud, but Eric would not let him see
he was angry.
Don't be an ass! I don't see the
joke. Can't I advertise the thing I
fnd?"
"Sure thing; but people don't usual

Miss Cinderella leave her rubber in

Eric's anger had about reached the
boiling point but he was sensible

for minute. There was nothing in it
but to explain to Grant. That was the

For the twentieth time that morn
ing Eric Spencer looked up expectant-
ly as someone entered his private Of
fee, and for the twentieth time he
sank back in his chair with a sigh.
All morning he had been expecting
someone, but as the hour reached noon
he almost gave up in despair. With
each new arrival at his office came
disappointment. There seemed to be
more coming in than usual, and their
business was so trivial 1t irritated him.
He would have gone to the club to
get away from it all If it hadn't been
for the chance Of missing her. 1t
would never do for him not to be
there when she arrived.
For the flftieth time he pulled open
the top drawer Of his desk and took
out a rubber for woman's left shoe.
What a very small rubber it was, he
thought as he placed it beside his own
big foot. Carefully he placed the rub
Der back in the drawer and took out
folded, mud-besmirched paper,
opened it and read the typewriter
words. on 1T, his face lighting up with
pleasure as he read and re-read it.
eff 1 could only find her." he ejacu-
lated, as he put the paper back in the
drawer with the rubber.
A newspaper was the next to take
his attention. He pulled 1t from his
pocket, opened it at the classified col
umn and found the advertisement he
was looking for under Lost and
Found" There was no mistake in the
insertion. 1t was printed just as he
had given it to them, for wonder.
He read 1t aloud to make sure:

Red Pine.

The red pine (Pinus Resinosa), call
ed in some parts of the country the
Norway pine, is not SO gigantic as the
white pine, it's common height being
only from so to 80 feet, although it
sometimes reaches 100 feet in the
woods of Maine. 1t is very hand
some tree, nevertheless, particularly
when it is young. In fact, it is one of
the most ornamental of the more COM
mon evergreens. 1t is to be found
from Newfoundland south to Pennsyl-
vania, and west through Michigan,
Wisconsin and Minnesota. The Nor
way pine has a reddish-brown trunk,
which is marked by fiat ridges on old
trees. The needles of this variety are
found in pairs as rule, and are from
five to seven inches long. They are
dark green in color and almost
straight. They are sharply pointed,
and the inner surface is flattish, q
point to be remembered.

Broken Stove Lining.

II any one contemplates mending
broken stove lining with a cement
made of salt and ashes mixed with wa
ter, don't do it. The salt will rust the
stove, running 1t beyond repair. In
stead, get quart or so of cement and
some sand from the street, and mix
with water. Fill all the holes and
cracks and your lining will be as good
as a new one and your stove not in
jured.

Facts About Prolific Fish.

The cod is estimated to yield 4,0O0,-
600 eggs each season. AS many as
eight, nine, and even nine and half
million eggs have been found in the
roe of a single cod. An eel was caught
in Scotland some years ago which was
80 inches long and weighed about two
pounds. The ovary was about II
inches long as it lay in the fish, but
when opened out it was nearly 80
inches in length, and 1t was calculated
that this contained upward of 10000
900 eggs, rivaling, If not surprising,
the cod in this respect.

is THE LEAGUE DISLOYAL?

The Non Partisan leaders OF North
Dakota are now trying to convince
the country that they are patriotic
and loyal. Well, let them cut lose
from Bob LaFollette and other pro-
Germans; let them back this gov
eminent in every way; let them cut
out their hobnobbing with the !. w.
W.; let them buy bonds and talk
bonds, back up the Red Cross, and
stop flirting with the disloyal ele-
ment in this country. Then, let the
Non Partisan League close the door
TO the disloyal, mouthy agitator in
this country, and by this we mean
that the NOn-Partisan League must
not employ pro-Germans and other
aisloyal people as organizers. Ask
some of the organizers Tor the Lea
que to show you their Red Cross
membership cards; ask them how
much they have invested in Liberty
loan bonds; how much they have
contributed to anything during the
war to assist this government. II
these men can show clean record
then they have right to say they
are patriotic. The Republican has
in mind a man who resides in
Charleston, Wash. This man has Wis
tied Orofino and preached in the
M. e. church, and is now out work
ing the farmers for SIG per for the
League. Is this man patriotic? 1t
lis reported that he As rotten with
Gisloyalty; that he is pro-German of
the most pronounced brand. And il
true, could not get employment in
any legitimate and .ruly loyal or
ganization in the land. He could
not work for the Grange; he could
not work for the Farmers Union.
III the Non-P Partisan League is really
loyal 1t will make 1t its business to
weed out pro- Germans and the l. w.
w. from it's ranks, and particularly
from it's organizers. If the League
harbors the disloyal then 1t is no
better than the company it keeps.
