The Egyptian Gun" meant not only
"hare" and "open," but period and
for this reason the hare became the
type Of periodlcity, both human and
lunar. and the character of opener
was associated with the opening of
the new year at Easter, as well as
with the beginning Of the new life
In the youth and maiden. Hence the
hare became connected in the popular
mind with the paschal eggs, broken
to signify the opening of the year,
NATURES year, when the buds burst
and the creatures of forest and air

Amcs had long been the butt of the
men rooming in the Rand apartments
termed the 'roost for ROSTERS only
by the would-be humorist of the in
mates. He was so homely that man
could, in the phrase Of another humor-
list, look at him once and ever after
feel satisfied with his own counte-
nance.
Ames took the joking good-naturedly
in a way that seemed to hint that he
had something up his sleeve; but that
something never appeared. lie was

ern states; and his visits to the apart
ment, where he retained a room, were
always at the holiday season when So
clal festivities were at their height
II was Ames' hard luck to be forced
to sit around while tile others discuss
ed their plans and made their prepare
lions for dances and celebrations Of
ike nature. He was induced to 90
to a few, but it was plain that he did
not enjoy himself. The girls looking
upon him were inclined to let him
decorate the chairs. lie was a poor
conyersationallst except with men; so
the other sex never learned to know
his sunshiny nature.
The conclusion was reached that he
was doomed to be a bachelor for life.
Beattie put it thus to him: JEFF, we've
done the best for you we could, but
you're simply non grata to the girls.
I'm sorry for you; now take me, for in
stance" And he went on to laud
himself.
1t was all done in fun, but keen eyes
saw Ames' face change; and it was
plain that at last he had become

ganizer of the work done by the United
States forest regiments in France
shows that while France and New Eng
land have about the same forest area
about 25,000,OOO acres each-New Eng
land produces only about 60 per cent
of the lumber used in its own territory,
and because Of poor management, pro-
duces 80 per cent less lumber than
France. The difference is summed in
the remark that France has been sys-
tematically building up her forests for
term of years, while New England
has been as unsystematically depicting
hers"
This deplorable want of state and
national interest exists not only in New
England, but in southern and Pacific
coast forest regions as well, Lumber
operators in the south have estimated
that in ten years more, under the pres
ent policy, they will be in precarous
state. and that within five years some
5000 mills, now saving in southern
woods, will cease operations for want
of logs The fate of this country's
lumber supply can not be left in the
hands of private operators. Europe's
demand must be met, and the future of
the American supply for American in
dnstry must be decentralization

beautiful as that would ever tie w
with a man with phlz like Ames'."
The night of the dance came. The
orchestra played their preliminary con-
cert and then swung into the dance
music, but no Ames and the Girl APP
peared.
At o'clock Beattle smiled, at 10
o'clock he was grinning, at IL he was
ready to laugh, when he turned in time

wrapped figure whose face, peering
smlingly over the collar Of her cloak
was indeed the wnsome face of the
Girl in the watch.
There's where l lose two weeks
salary" Beattie groaned to Starr.
You deserve to lose more" was the
answer as Starr fastened to Ames, in
tending to be at least second applicant
for dance.
Ames' triumph was complete. When
he swung into the lifting music of the
next dance, the eyes of the hall were
upon him and her She danced beauti-
fully, so much so that she more than
made up for Ames' awkwardness; and
he seemed TO be inspired to the extent
that his large feet assumed rhythm
unusual to them.
Her picture had perhaps been a bit
complimentary but she was beautiful
of that there was no doubt; and
every one of the doubling males who
danced with her made up his mind that
he would get in on Beatties dinner.
The evening ended with no issue in
doubt When Ames babe them good
night and escorted her from the hall, 1t
was admitted that he had won a tri-
umph; and the only Respondent face in
the gathering was Beattie's.
The next day In Beatties room,
where the clans had gathered to "rub
it in. appeared haiiboy with Beat

marks going his way, he opened bis

solemnly.
