uttered it so deliciously that ripple
of joy ran through the audience.
Daphne tried to master the trick Of it,
but with no success. She said How
do you do?" in dozens of ways, with
no result except to render the phrases
meaningless gibberish.
Daphne flung down the part she was
studying and flung away ambition, and
went out to tell the family that she
agreed with them.
She was confronted by Leila In q

CHAPTER TX.

Daphne bent her head so quickly
that his pressed lips touched her hair.
She flung backward and thrust him
away and broke from his hold.
"Aghw she groaned. "T suppose I
Deserve the insult-for trusting you"
II didn't intend it for an insult"
He followed her with pleading arms.
She backed away and found herself
In corner, flushed, furious, at bay.
GLOW dare your" she stormed, and
thought with nausea how often the
phrase had been used and with what
hypocrisy.
1t seemed to fall famiIiarly on his
ear, for he laughed comfortably. "How
tan I help it?"
"If you touch me Tll-Tll hit you"
He paused, stared deep into her
ayes. "Do you mean it2"
"Of course / mean It,"
I'm sorry" he sighed. "But won't

fault for inviting you here"
"Oh, no, beg you not to think that

please go"
"All right" he murmured, and left
the room.
She heard his stick rattle as he took
It from the umbrella jar. She thought /:
"There goes my opportunity-my ca
reer! Well, let it go! 1t wasn't worth
the price!'
Duane appeared at the door again
to say: ooh, by the way, that intro
duction to Mr.. Reben. Do you still
want it?"
mo, thank you, not from you. Good
by"
He bowed farewell, then changed
Ills mind, entered the room and sat
nown, and motioned her to a seat as
II it were his house.
'Miss Kip, may I say one word to
you? don't pretend to understand
you women people. I'm not sure now
just how sincere you are, just how
much Of ninny you may think me for

Daphne's hopes Of becoming a
great actress receive a rude
shock, but she Is given chance
to show what she can do, and
again II is Duane to whom she
owes the chance. She ls afraid
of the obligation under which
she is placed, but Duane as
sures her that she can repay

farms of all who wanted information
on spraying and pruning. He solved
the difficulty by holding a series of
demonstrations in schools and or
ehards.
Another agent reports that during
the week he sprayed 1900 trees and
pruned 300. This work is much need
ed and greatly appreciated, he says.
At one orchard he found the owner
ready to cut down some of the trees
because he did not have the equip
ment to spray and thought the scale
would kill the trees before another
season.

CONTROL OF COOLING MOTH
Good Plan to Band Trunks and Large
Limbs of Apple Trees With
Strips of Cloth.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture
Banding the trunks and larger limbs
of apple trees with strips of cloth has
been practiced extensively for the con-
troll of the cooling moth. This method
consists of fastening a band of cloth
around the trunk, from which the loose
bark has been removed. Usually band
made from burlap, folded to three
thicknesses four to eight inches wide,
is used. The codling moth larvae, or
worms, crawl beneath the band to
form their cocoons and should be de-
stroyed by hand at intervals of ten
days throughout the season.

ATTACK ON SAN JOSE SCALE
Orchard Pest Subjected to Heavy
Spray-Machine-G Gun Fire by
Southern County Agents.

prepared by the United States Depart

The San Jose scale was subjected to
heavy spray-machine-gu fire recently
when the county agents of South Car
DINA held a spraying campaign. For
one week the agents centered their at
tentiOn on this attack, but it was con-
tinued by fruit growers until the buds
on the trees began to swell and fur
Their spraying with the strong lime
sulphur solution would be injurious.
One agent reports so much interest
in the proper care Of home orchards
that he found it impossible to visit the

APPLE-TREE BORER WASH
Apply Thick Coat of Paint Made From
Raw Linseed Oil and Pure
White Lead.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Probably the best wash for apple
tree borers is thick coat of paint
made from raw linseed oil and pure
white lead. Remove the earth for
distance of three to four inches from
the base of the tree, scrape Off the
dirt and loose bark scales, and, after
worming, apply to the exposed trunk
thick, uniform coating of paint to a
distance of about foot above groSnd.

Don't spoil the boys when they come back" was the plea of Russell c. Lowell, of the Federal Board for Vocational Education, in an ad- dress delivered at Philadelphia re- gently.
 MT. Lowell said he thought that some of those who had been maimed in the war were spoiled for the future by being feted too much and adOred as heroes when they reached their own home towns. He cited several cases where young men had practically refused to undertake to learn new trades after being un- fitted by their wounds for continu- ing at their old trade, because, they said, they did not need to work now.
 After time, MT. Lowell de- clared, man tires of such idleness and false honor, and he either be- comes mentally sick and Respondent . or gets quite crooked in his methods and begins preying upon people in stead of trying to earn a living. MT. Lowel stated that one of the chief difficulties the Federal edu- cational system is encountering is that of getting hold of the maimed men when they have returned to this country. They filter back to their own districts, and unless promptly taught to start life anew are apt to reach a mental stage where it is difficult to get them to overcome the real difficulties which exist in the re-education in trades.

WIRELESS PHONES :.
 ARE COMING SOON

By the time the peace treaty is signed we shall be talking across the Atlantic by wireless," says God frey Isaacs, managing director of the Marconi Wirless Telegraph com pany, in an interview. "One day in the not far distant future," he adds, "I think we shall walk about with wirelss telephones attached 70 our bodies and we shall be able, standing say in Picadily Circus, to call friend who is flying some where. Or we may have an in vitation by wireless telephony from a friend flying in France to join him at dinner in the evening.
 Wireless telephony has been very largely used in war for communi- cation between airplanes and head anu lOI WOlh. bul there is no reason why it should not be available over very much longer distances.
 "It will not be very long before one will be able to sit at ones desk in London and speak to New York practically instaptaneously. Equal facilities will be available for com municating with Paris, Rome, Mos COW or Amsterdam. In my view it will be as easy to speak to Syd- ney or Melbourne or to New Zea- land.
