she was cold, too, and crept closer
to the stout Swedish woman lying
beside her. Presently she fell a
sleep again to the sound of the bliz-
zard bowling outside. When she
wakened for the third time it was
morning.
In the afternoon the blizzard died
away. AS far as the eye could see,
Sheba looked out upon a waste of
snow. Her eyes turned from the
desolation without to the bare and
cherries room in which they had
found shelter. In spite of herself u
little shiver ran down the spine of
the girl. Had she come into this
Arctic solitude to find her tomb?
AS soon as the storm had moder-
ated enough to let him go out with
safety, saltwater Pete had taken
one of the horses for an attempt at
trail breaking.

He had been gone two hours and
the dusk was already descending
over the white waste when Sheba
ventured out to see what had be-
come of the stage driver. But the
cold was so bitter that she soon gave
up the attempt to fight her way
through the drifts and turned back
to the cabin.
Some time later Swiftwater Pete
came stumbling into their tempo
rary home. He was tagged to ex-
haustion but triumphant. Upon the
table he dropped from the crook of
his number arm two packages.
'The makings for a Christmas
dinner" he said with a grin.
Mrs. Olson thawed out the pur-
ding and the chocolates in the oven
and made kind of mush out of
some oats Pete had saved from the
horse feed. They ate their one
sided meal in high spirits. The

Fashions of To-Day BY May Manton

There is no prettier variation
of the fashionable tunic than this
one. 1t really consists of one
piece but is so draped that it
forms graceful and becoming
points and the shaping of the
bodice at the lower edge is ex-
ceedingly new and smart. As
you see it here, it is made of
broadcloth with trimming of SOU
tache braid and fur and is worn
over velvet skirt. You could
hardly find a more fashionable
combination or a handsomer one,
but you could, of course, copy the
idea in various ways. Char
meuse would be handsome for the
blouse with tunic and you could
use Charmeuse over velvet or
over serge or over the same ma
terial. You could make the
bodice and tunic of a fine serge
if you want a more useful dress
and you could leave the lower
edge of the tunic plain, or you
could use soutache there as we'll
as down the sides. Serge would
be pretty either over a skirt of
serge or over a skirt of satin.
For the medium size the bodice
with tunic will require 3ss yards
of material a. inches wide, aX
yards Sd, and the skirt, q yards
of either width.
The pattern of the bodice with
tunic No. o5oa is cut in sizes
from 81 to 40 inches bust measure
and of the skirt No. o5o3 in sizes
from ID to "a inches waist meas
ure. They will be mailed to any
address by the Fashion Depart
ment of this paper, on receipt of
fifteen cents for the bodice with
tunic, ten cents for the skirt

freeze had saved their lives. If it
held clear till tomorrow they could
reach Smiths crossing on the crust
of the snow.
Swiftwater broke up the chairs
for fuel and demolished the legs of
the table, after which he lay down
before the stove and fell at once
into a sodden sleep.
Presently Mrs. Olson lay down on
the bed and began to snore regu-
larly. Sheba could not sleep. The
boards tired her bones and she was
cold. Sometimes she slipped into
cat maps that were full of bad
dreams. When she wakened with q
start it was to find that the fire had
died down. She was shivering from
lack of cover. Quietly the girl re-
plenished the fire and lay down
again.
When she wakened with a start
it was morning. A faint light sift-
ed through the single window of the
shack. Sheba whispered to the older
woman that she was going out for
a little walk.
AS she worked her way down the
sulch Sheba wondered whether the
news of their loss had reached Ku-
siak. Were search parties out al
ready to rescue them? Colby Mac
donald had gone into the blizzard
years ago to save her father. Per-
haps he might have been out all
night trying to save her fathers
daughter. Peter would go, of
course-and Gordon Elliot. The
work in the mines would stop and
men would volunteer by scores.
That was one fine thing about the
North. 1t responded to the unwrit-
ten law that man must risk his
own life to save others.
From little knoll Sheba looked
down upon the top of the stage
three hundred yards below her, and
While she stood there the promise
of the new day was blazoned on the
SKY. 1t came with amazing beauty
of green and primrose and anne
thyst, while the stars fiickered out
and the heavens took on the blue
of sunrise. She drew a deep, slow

lated and her body grew rigid.
Across the snow waste a man
was coming. He was moving to-
wagd the cabin and must cross tho

the girl stopped. then beat wildly to
make up the lost stroke. He had

stage had been set for it, the won

BE NATURAL
AND Be "REAL"
Aftectation Bores Friends and
Yourself; Frankness and
Honesty Make One Loved
By BEATRICE EAIRr,x


y real person is one who has an
honest knowledge of himself. the
mental detachment to stand off and
crittcise that self. the fineness and
strength to cultivate the best and
conquer the worst in that self, and
enough healthy impulse to thorough
~ compel vital, energetic living.
A real person" has healthy instincts,
normal desires and an honest way
or expressing them, and sanity
enough to respect other peoples in
dlViduality even while expressing
his own.
Affectation surely must bore the
one who practices it. 1t means a
constant strain, a constant mincing
along on tip-toes when you want
10 stride on the balls of your feet.
And even as a man must have an
excellent memory to be a good liar,
so he has to keep careful track or
his pose and the things he has done
TO establish it, in order to keep on
affecting it.
The poser is always forced to live
up to something he is not. He has
TO keep his eye on his audience to
see II he is making a successful i'm
preston. He has to go through the
strain OF poSturing and grimacing
and play-acting. No matter how
much he longs to wash off the
SreaSe-palnt' and makeup from
his attitude, he has to go on wear
ing them.
Now, for naturalness. What will
it do for you? Well, first of all, the
You" you honestly are will attract
the friendships that are honestly
congenial to it and will be able to
90 the things it honestly longs to do.
You don't wear yourself out when
YOU express yourself; you just grow
freely along the lines that are nat
ural for you.
How are you going to be natural
In previous articles 1 have tried TO
indicate how you may find out what
YOU really are and which of the
qualities you really have you want
TO cultivate. After you have done
that, what you want to do with |
Your naturalness is to bring it into |

The first use YOU make of your

press the affection you feel for peo-
pie. Suppose someone YOU like !

play humor and burlesque beauty to
an enjoyment of finer things.
You're expressing yourself natur-
ally enough; only now you go to
charming comedies, instead of to
cheap burlesque shows, and you
wear ties of a wonderful shade OF
blue instead of green ones checked
off with purple and dotted with yell
low. You still like a good time and
attractive clothes, only now you are
reaching a more cultivated standard
of what is fun and what is beauty.
Well now, honest Jack, you are
walking up Main street one evening
and along comes girl-overdressed,
staggering, bold. painted and
cheaply alluring. Wont you be like
ly to pass her by in favor of the
finer type, just because you have
begun to appreciate fineness all along
the line?
A little later a charming young
woman who is well-groomed and
full of the magnetism of clean. sweet
youth passes by. Now that you have
begun to be natural, your impulse
is to go up and fairly demand ac-
quaintanceShip with her. This is
the particular point at which all
writer's on naturalness stop and hes
itate. Lucy Wilton is attracted by
you, too, Jack. The natural thing
for you two youngsters to do is to
scrape acquaintance? Why can't
you?
First of all, the game just isn't
played that way; and either one of
you, seeing the other one ready to
break the rules of the game, won't
quite trust that other to play fairly
and squarely always and to give an
absolutely honest deal.
Naturalness in the individual is
charming; but it cannot go beyond
the individual and bend the laws of
society to its will. Teach yourself
to like the best-and to set about
attaining it in the finest and best
way,

Advice to the Lovelorn

OIhGG-AND w OhAN
DE'A X MISS I'AIRFAN:
/ have been going about with a
young man for about five months, and
have now found out that he does not
care for me on account of my clothes.
He claims that l do not dress like
every other girl, but have explained
it to him that L do not care to because
my father is in the hospital.
Do you think L should continue go
ing with him, or should l drop him,
as ! have friends that care for me for
myself.
CLARA L.
Clothes really do not count. OF
course, if your father is ill, you are
thinking of him and not of the latest
New York fashions. That doesn't
mean that neatness, cleanliness and
tidiness have ceased being, important
am sure that you can keep yourself
lokoing well groomed even in old
clothes, and any man who judges you
by what you wear rather than by
what you are is not particularly worth
while. I don't think the quarrel be-
tween you two need break off your
friendship at all. Just try to convert
the young man to a common sense
view of the situation.

III Health Often Due to
Neglect of Kidneys and Liuer

Many organs take part in assimf.
lation of food, and a number are ac.
tive in eliminating those portions of
the food which are not taken into
the blood for the upbuilding of tn
body. OF the eliminative organs, the
liver and the kidneys are of maiol
Importance, and are most likely tC
be overworked and become diseased.
When such is the case, various trou-
bles of a digestive and eliminative
character occur, and such troubles
are so frequent and so common that
it is absolutely necessary TO find
4some relief. Warmers Safe Kidney
Tnd Liver Remedy was compounded
over 40 years ago to help equalize
the work OF both kidneys and liver.
How successful it has been is eV-
denced by its widespread sale and
it's value is attested by an immense
number of appreciative users who
through these many years have put
It to the severest tests with the most
satisfactory results.
