She was trembling. Her fright had
flushed her; cheek to brow was glow
ing with startled blood. He saw an
odd flash of startling beauty, the veil
Of tan torn Off by her emotion. The
wave Of her terror caught him. He
put out his hand to steady her. She
stood recovering herself, regaining her
spent breath. Richard remembered
that this was the first time he had Heen

she grabbed his sleeve. "Oh, don't"
She flushed, thinking to meet the quiz

she completed. How he would despise
her cowardicel But she could not let
him know that her fear had been for
him!
He was looking at her. Suppose any
thing had happened to her! He had a
minute Of nausea. If that brute had
hurt her-and then he knew how it
was with him!
He looked at her gravely. OF course.
He had known 1t long time. 1t was
true. She was going to belong to him.
If that brute had hurt her!
She shrank under his gravity; this
was something she did not understand.
They were silent, walking toward the
encampment. Richard did not care to
talk. 1t was not the time; and he had
been badly shaken. Innes was tremu-

were silent again.
"You won't 60 Off alone, again." he

ownership. She did not meet his eyes.
Later, when she was lying on her
bed, face downward, routed, she tried
to analyze that possessive challenge of
his gaze, but 1t eluded words. She
summoned her pride, but the meaning

boys bear feminine names, while girls
as frequently have masculine names

THE HIGH COST OF PRINT

Just where the high cost OF print
Ia going to land us fellows in the
newspaper business is rather prop
lematical. There Is a point beyond
which we cannot go. Print in car load
lots is now quoted at 13 cents. Many
papers are troubled in getting a sup
ply sufficient to meet their needs ana
some are already forced to suspend
publication. The Bancroft Register,
a leading paper Of Kingsbury county
has suspended The Forest City Press,
one of the first papers started in Pot
ter county has quit after nearly forty
years Of publication. Other papers
are cutting down on the number or
pages and announcing radical In
crease in rates in order to keep head
above water. The coal situation and
transportatio problem are not help
ing things any and for the newspaper,
pioneer days had nothing on the pres
ent situation The outlook is anything
but pleasant.

THE CROWS NEST

Several years ago some one wrote
an article on the philosophy Of dress
ing up to the necktie. II stated that
IL person bought himself a new
necktie and his clothes were a little
sseiy he began at once to buy ar'i-
cles of wearing apparel to match the
necktie, first the coat and vest then
the whole suit, next the hat and lastly
the shoes. An entire new outfit in
keeping with the new necktie. 1t is
possible that there Is such a thing
as bringing ones language up to eer-
tain forms Of speech. II we are con-
scious Of being slipshod In some Of
our every day expressions it might he
a good plan to choose more elegant
form of short answers to common
questions OF fac. or opinion and see
IL we could not fit the rest of our
language up to the new standard. For
instance, instead of using, "Ye-eh,"
"Yep." or a blunt "Yes," in answer
to a question, IL we should use the
polite form of "Yes, SIR" or "Yes,
ma'am." instead, or Nope" for "No,
sir" It would not be long before We
should be using other and better Ian
guage to match the potter terms that
we have chosen in the mere matter
of answering questions. 1t would have
a helpful psychological effect. at least.
The same thing might be said of our
common every day salutations. In.
stead Of the short "Hello." or the in
elegant. Hello, there" or "How'dy."
we should say Good morning." or
SLOW do you do" or any of the other
polite forms of salutation 1t would
make a better impression on ones
friends. Try saying "Good morning
to little folks when you meet them and
you VIII flnd that they Will almost
invariably echo your SALVATION. It in.
vites politeness and you meet with a
hearty response. We ought to dress
up In speech rs well as in clothes.

1910 you thlnK IL posslole ior
mechanic with practical ex-
perience to become a sue
ccssful travelling salesman, selling
the material he has been accustomed
40 using as a mcchanic?-T. j. H.
\ Yes, 1t is possible for a mechanic,
or a man in any other trade or
profession, to become a successful
salesman. The degree OF success, of
course, will vary according to the
man. Anybody OF fair education, am
bition and determination can attain
at least fair degree OF success in
the selling field. Everybody cannot
be a "whlrlwind" in the selling pro-
fession, however, any more than in
any other profession.
A mechanic going into the selling
field, selling the material he has been
accustomed to using in his trade,
would need to be careful on one point
AS mechanic he has been accus-
toned to handling inanmate objects
He knows all about the material he
used in his trade. He hasn't been
meeting people-animate objects
frequently enough, He hasn't been
handling, bending, twisting human
minds very much. Now. a prospec-
tive customer isn't a piece OF ma
chinery. A prospect cannot be ap-
preached as "A mere problem in me-
chanics. Every single prospect is a
study in himself. The basic laws of
human nature are always the same.
| but the application OF those laws
vary with the individual For in
stance, everybody on earth likes to
| be fiattered. That's a basic law.
But when a salesman discovers Il
way OF fiatterng me, he cannot use
| the same method OF hattcring Won.
What would please me might an
I tagonize you, and vice versa.
A mechanic selling the material he
has been using in his trade would
| know all about his goods lie would
be apt to be more Interested in his
goods than in his prospective custo.
mers, AS example, a clothing sales
man might be more interested in the
fact that the particular coat he was
presenting for sale had four buttons
than in the fact that his prospective
customer had red hair.
The rule to follow is: Know all
about your goods, from every angle
and from every viewpoint; then, find
the things in your goods which will
confer a bench. on the prospect If he
buys them. Look at your goods al
ways from the standpoint OF the pros
pective customer Include the pros
pect in your thoughts, Even though
you know all about your goods dom
air your knowledge unduly. You ar,
not going TO tell every prospect every
