ID DEMONSTRATE
 NEOLIN TOMORROW

A demonstration of the efficiency of Neolin as used by shoe makers in the place of leather will be given tomorrow at the Phoenix Shoe Repairing shop at 46 East Adams street.
 The demonstration will be in charge of a factory man, and will last all day. Neolin is placed on the market by the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company and has attained a remarkable success in replacing leather. It not only wears extremely well, but it acts as a shock absorber eliminating many of the jars which the body receives from hard heels and soles used on the average shoe.

mers. Reports from such solicitors have been received from the northern part of the state especially. and have had letters protesting against the practice. The national association. of which the Arizona home Is a part, has asked that this practice be discourageo in this state"
 Following is the resolution:
 Whereas, It is alleged that some state superintendents are permittine solicitors and agents to operate in states other than their own, placing dependent children there. or raising funds there;
 Resolved. That the National Chil- dren's Home and Welfare association does now go on record as being op- posed to such practices and requests that the work of each state society be confined to the state in which 1t is chartered or incorporated"
 MT. Summers was in Phoenix yester- day, having just placed little girl of 10 years with a Phoenix family. The previous day he found a home for a boy of 12 with a family living be- tween Phoenix and Tempe. The boy had been in the home for four months.

BOARD PUTS AN END ID SPECULATING IN
 ALLLANDS IF STATE

It having come to the attention
 of this board that certain persons
 have in the past, and are now,
 Ieasinq state lands for purposes of
 speculation, thereby withholding
 and preventing their early develop
 ment and beneficial use, to the
 detriment of bonafide lessors, and
 enriching themselves by such prac-
 tice, instead of the state being the
 financial beneficiary:
 Therefore be 1t resolved that the
 land commissioner is hereby di
 rected to use such methods and
 exact such fees in the leasing of
 state lands to these spectators as
 he may find necessary and effec-
 tive, to the end that this baneful,
 selfish practice shall be eliminated.
 This resolution, drawn by Gov. Thomas E. Campbell was forwarded to the land department yesterday, and it will follow, as the result of ruling of the board, that speculation in state lands must cease.
 The decisive step was taken after a hearing of the Harris case, MT. Harris making the statement that he had pur- chased a relinquishment from Thomas Flint Nichols, paying him $10 an acre for land which he leased from the state for 10 cents an acre. The land is To- cated in Pinal county and covers, 80 acres. on 10 acres of which Pinal coun- ty has been granted natural prod ucts lease.
 That there has been speculation in state lands has been known for some time, but that the board does not pro- pose to continue the policy of permit ting the "state to be sucker" was dem- onstrated by the board, unanimously voting that the commissioner follow the plan suggested by the governor.

CHAPTER VII.

Since Friday night. HlllIard had
lived only for Sunday; his whole exls-
tence had been turned to Sunday. and
when at last the morning dawned. his
greatest fear was that he might not
live until dlnner-time.
On reaching Carols side. he was
both awkward and incoherent; and he
failed to derive encouragement from
the realization which gradually stole
over him that the Durants had asked
\ number Of other guests to dinner.
Armstrong was waiting patiently In
the aisle. and keeping closer to Carol
than billiard liked, and there was also

we're nine people who finally sat down
to table; and billiards dream Of quiet
progress and harbored conversation
was shattered In a twinklIng.
It was all very homellke, and all
very friendly, but to Hllllnrd, sitting
there between Carol and her mother.
the occasion was peculiarly acute. He
had long since discarded any residue
Of his active fears; he was con-
6dent In his disguise to the
point Of rscklessness. for he had
covered the windings Of the trail by nm
Infinite variety Of methods; and yet
without having any tangible facts to

"MlndI" billiard had risen half
out Of his chair. His tremendous
yearning to see Carol again, and his
violent reaction at the prospect, had
greatly Influenced his voice. which was
strident. explosive. The Cullens were
laughing aloud at his confusion.

He could not tell. Of course. whether

Of the three. when Hilliard Joined
