only his one wild impulse to flee.
At first he was pursued. he thought,
for he heard sounds behind. But they
died away presently. for he ran with
the wild speed of uttermost fear, aud
besides the darkness favored him. and
at last he came somehow to the out :

He felt safer then. for it seemed to
him that the power of the tiendish thing
from which he had escaped was always
greatest in the wood, beneath the trees.

near little bush, he fell and lay still.

A NUMBER OF THINGS

In some parts of Holland the farmers
have taken hint from nature and as a
result have their own gas plants. On
the drained marshy land below the sea
level natural gas is plentiful and plants
have been installed to put it to prac-
tical use. The installation comprises
well, into which water from the soil
filters, with a gas generator therein,
this extracting the gaseous properties
from the water and conducting them to
reservoir containing a supply for the
house. The gas thus obtained provides
all the wants for cooking, heating and
lighting in the e>house or any other part
of the farm. After the plant is once
installed, which can be done at small
expense, the cost is nothing, and the
quality of the gas is said to be par
ticularly good.
Owing to the acute shortage of tung-
sten for making high speed steel one of
the developments of the war was the
manufacture and successful use of an
alloy for this purpose, which is without
tungsten. This steel, high in chrome
and cobalt, is now being used for the
fabrication of dies and tools, being of :
fered as substitute for both carbon
and tungsten high speed tool steel. The
pig metal brought from England is melt :
ed at Cleveland plant in crucible
and cast in molds in the form desired.

send three saleswomen who were skilled
drcssmakers to help out and at my sug-
gestion had hired six experienced man
nikins.
''Be sure to get good lockers" they
were told and they promised us that we
would be quite satisfied when we saw
them.
We were and the day before the invi-
tation display of exclusive woman's
creations as we called it, they arrived
with the three saleswomen
They all trooped over to the store and
up to Jackson's Office. They arrived
about five minutes to one. Immediately

And even as he understood he hea I'd

ground above. and the first spadeful of
flying earth came down upon him where
he lay. and some Of the mold was damp
and cold upon his cheek and some of it
rested with great weight upon his chest.
From above he heard a voice call
"Where are you? Where are you

Keith knew the voice for that of the
man who had talked with him under
the great oak. Apparently he was come

There came in answer a sort of in

appeared to convey a negative.

speaker. who uttered sort of choking

horror too great for him, caught his
foot in the spreading roots of the oak
and stumbled and fell.

instructive horror. and the sound of the
stumble and fall acted somehow as a
stimulus to Keith to urge him to fresh

and then the grin stuck on her face as
she saw the six TALL graceful and re
markably good looking manikins. Her
mouth still stretched, her store teeth
differing as if to express her horror
she gazed first at the girls, then at
Jackson (who looked as guilty as if he'd

Her mouth snapped to an angry line
