To him Gloria was an unframed wild
rose, sweet and beautiful. who sllamed
his practical worldly-wise nature in
contrast with freshness, purity and in
nocence of a soul that had known and
loved nature with the ardor of child.
Many & time the professor nurtured as
a dream embracing all that was worth
while in life, an ardent longing to
seek a new existence amid the glorieS
of nature in its primeval wildncss,
away from the drudgery and inh;lr-
moniousness of his present sphere,
communing with the flowers, the birds,
the stars, and learning from the lips
of his fair young pupil lessons of the
real loneliness and peace of a happy
existence, forgetting the world and
by the world forgot p
"Oh, think of u" exclaimed Gloria
rapturously one day. II can write a
whole line. See" and the rugged
heart of her tutor beat tumultuous-
/ ly as she placed before him sheet
bearing the words, II love Aunty
Eunice and dear Professor Dacre more
than anybody else in the whole world"
/ Then after that there seemed to
creep into her nature certain shy
ness that puzzled Albion Dacre Even
her aunt observed the change. Con-
tact with the world was teaching the
artless girl that she should repress
the naive free impulses that her life
in thp Wilderness had nncourouad
One afternoon the professor came to
the tree-shaded table where Gloria
took her lessons to find her sunny head
pillowed on one arm and her lovely
eyes closed in slumber. She had been
writing in little memorandum book
and he could not help but scan the
open page before him.
1t held the secret thoughts of girl
in love-herSelf. 1t artlessly analysed
the deep devotion that had grown up
in her heart for the man she adored-
himself.
Suddenly Gloria aroused. She dis
cerned that he had scanned her treas
ured confession. A deep blush over
spread the beautiful face She has
tened to hide it against his arm,
where she murmured SOFTLY:
Its true. every word of it," and
Albion Dacre knew that the perfect
joy of life was his.

Someone has said that the dandeliOn

And that reminds me of an incident
in railroad yard in Michigan. A pair
of robins built their nest in freight
car, and just as the brood was Matched
the order came to send the car on to
Chicago. The yardmen, after consul

headquarters. and the order came in
stantly back to sidetrack the car till
the babies were able to leave the nest.
The men at both ends of the line were
country boys, without doubt.

of some injury in his youth, and who

Industrial Research.

Again and again during the war it
was insisted by all manner of authori-
ties in England that one of the great
efforts of the future should be in the
direction of encouraging industrial re-
search. This was, in fact, war les
son, and Great Britain evidently has
no intention of losing it. Already a
government department of scientific
and industrial research" has been es-
tablished; while, according to the
chairman at recent meeting Of the
Institution of Electric Engineers, "uni-
versities all over the country, led by
University scollege, London, are re-

High Speed Steel Without Tungsten

A new high speed steel of British
origin is without tungsten in it's com
position and advantages of both a
practical and economical nature are
claimed. 1t is cobalt-molybdenum
steel, the cobalt apparently acting as
stabiizer and as correcting certain
disadvantages said to exist in molyb-
denum-tungsten steels. The new steel
is claimed to possess the highest point
of efficiency ever obtained. The hard
ening temperature required is only in
the neighborhood of 1000 degrees
Fahrenheit. The steel is also reported
to machine exceptionally soft and cas-
lily. The specific gravity of como steel
is reported to be equal to that of the
old carbon tool steel, end so 10 per
cent less than that Of the tungsten
high-speed steels AS a result it is
estimated that given weight of como
steel will produce 10 per cent more
tools than the same weight of regular
high-speed steel.

A WILD ROSE.

Copyright. 1920 Western Newspaper I'm

"A lady to see you, SIR" spoke Susan
Dodge, the old housekeeper; "two of
them in fact-mother and daughter,
think"
Professor Albion Dacre lifted his
eyes from his book with surprise, al
most concern in his timid eye.
eff it is "a subscription or some
thing of that sort, you might attend
to it, Susan" suggested her employer.
81 don't think it is anything of that
kind, Sir" explained Susan. THE
elder lady said something about wish
ing to talk to you about the young
lady"

the professor, although he rather re-
scented any intrusion upon his dearly
loved solitude.

trained, even voice, and a matronly
appearing lady with Il refined cast OF
feature introduced herself. This is
my niece, Miss Gloria Tresham."
Professor Dacre courteously ac-
| knowledged the greeting of the elder
| lady. AS he fixed his eyes upon her
companion, it seemed as though the
latter had brought into the staid, well
governed house the very essence of
| youth, beauty, breath of the forest
OF the sea, free, unrestrained, an ia
defnabe spiritual something that
caused the professor to feel as if this
lovely creature was quite of another
world
Mrs. Ward was brief, concise and
practical. I'VE have just moved into
the house diagonally back of yours"
she said.
''Ah! then we are neighbors?" OBJ

my niece, Gloria" proceeded Mrs.
Ward, "has been brought up for eight
cen years in the remote wilderness.

went into seclusion, taking his only
child to share it. Gloria has been
brought up among natures solitudes.

voted love of her father in her hermit

/ consent to take Gloria as a special
home pupil. with the idea of familiar
izing her with the system and methods
of acquiring learning? And later on she
might enter upon course in some
seminary"
1t was an extraordinary concession
to ask of man as occupied and as
well paid as Professor Dacre. The
sweet eyes of Gloria Tresham fixed up
on him, he was influenced to say:
Madam, l have two hours daily in
the afternoon unoccupied and usually
devoted to rest, or reading in my libra
