The whole crew of the Solovei and all her passengers. S7 altogether had gathered on deck and were greeted by us with q resounding hurrah, to which they responded in the same way. Their joy is not easy to describe. To drift without aim, almost without hope, in the darkness and cold of the Polar night, with bad and insufficient food, in cold and unclean quarters, and in constant dread of getting so far north that rescue would be im- possible-that is an ordeal so hard that it is not every one who would come through 1t entirely unscathed.
 Immediately after we arrived the captain of the Soiovei and his wife and all the passengers. seven in num- Der, came on board. They were invit ed into tine saloon and treated to re- treatments, which they evidently ap- preciated. One of them said it was like coming into paradise after their anxieties. The passengers asked leave to transfer to the Sviatogor as they were greatly exhausted and needed medical attention and better diet, and I was glad to be able to grant their request. Then we set to work to put provisions and coal on board the Solo vel so that the crew could at once prepare a proper meal with something better to eat and drink than they had had in the last few months.
 Second Relief Ship Arrives.
 About four o'clock in the morning we were awakened by loud hurrahs from the crew of the Solovei. who were hailing the arrival of the Kama da, which had at last also go, through. Had the Kanada not been so fortunate as to get into the lane made in the ice by the Sviatogor, it would have been hardly possible for her arrive so soon. Next day we shipped more coal and provisions on board the Solo vel, and were helped with hearty good will by the crews of the two Russians.
 This done we started in the after noon of June 20 on our homeward voy- age, the Sviatogor leading and the Solovei and Kanada following. At first the ice was loose and fairly easy to get through, but afterwards it be- came closer and mere difficult to force. There was fog. too. which made it im- possible to keep proper observation of the ice conditions. Consequently we often had to stop q fairly long time, especially as the fog prevented the other two ships from keeping with us. It was evening on the 21st when we reached the Kara sea entrance, and there we were again obliged to stop for thick fog.
 We resumed our voyage at 2 o'clock next morning steering for the mid dle of the Kara strait, but at 2:30 D. m. were unlucky enough to ground on an unknown sandbank. We at once began to transhlp coal to the .Solovei and Kanada in order to get the loading $50 tons of coal we at last got her off. A diver from the Kanada ex- amined the ships bottom and pro- nounced the damage not serious. So we continued our voyage to Bielushya bay, where we handed over more pro- visions and supplies to the Russians and took on coal from the Harde for our voyage back to England.
 After q cordial leave-taking from OUT friends on the Solovei and Kama da these vessels left us on June %, shaping their course for Archangel. On July we had completed our coal ing and next day at 2 p. m. we began our homeward voyage.

 a basis far less promising as a prac- tical proposition than the basis upon which the gasoline driven vehicle stands today.
 Dropping back to the point of short haul delivery, attention is being called to the fact that the radius of highway shipping is being gradually extended as modern roads are being built. Ad- vocates of national highway system, the creation of which is provided for in the Townsend bill now pending in congress, have encountered the argu- ment that approximately 50 miles is the maximum of motor delivery. Their answer is that while this may be true, it is true only at the present time be- cause of the illogical connections and the general condition of the roads.
 The same economic conditions which forced railway development are forcing a national development of the public highway, and the advocates of a na- tional highway system assert that each days discussion of the present eco homie situation produces additional reasons why the federal government must get down to highway building on nationwide scale and in dead earnest.
 In a sense the legislative mind at Washington seems to be approaching the present phase of economic prob lens somewhat in spirit of weari- ness. twill we ever get anything really finished?" is a question which seems to express their feelings, since so many problems, like the proverbial cat, keep coming back.
 But one fact seems to be making itself very clear and that is that since the public highway is the first lap be- tween the producer and consumer, the logical place to begin cutting down liv- ing costs is by eliminating permanently the time consuming and fuel-wasting roads. To accomplish this purpose the construction of a national high way system as a necessary and logical connection with state and county sys- tems is being looked upon with in- ci ceased favor.

GOOD ROADS

Problems Involved in Railway Opera. tton Again Bring Improved High
 ways to Front.

While it Is admitted that the rail- ways must necessarily form the na. tion's leng-distance transportation lines, the auxiliary power of the pub lie road. through the development of the gasoline engine and the motor ve- hicle, is receiving thoughtful attention in official circles.
 Public discussion of high-cost prob lens and the railway situation ran into the country road at two points recently. The first point touched was that the public highway is a potential short-haul freight and express line. and that with a national system of improved roads intersecting each state north, south, east and west there will thus be constructed the basis of q com prehensive nationwide system of traf- fic arteries with which state and coun- ty systems may connect. With such q system provided the development of freight and express transportation is anticipated far beyond comprehension, says Chicago Tribune. It's advocates assert that the motortruck as 1t ap- pears on the public highways today is but an infant to what it will be once the public roads are built to permit its enlarged use.
 Those who doubt the possibilities of the highway freight and express as factors in the reduction and stabiliz- ing of food costs are told to look back over the development of the railway and note that the beginning was upon

Better Not Change Left. Flanders.

Better Not Change Left-Handers.
 If child be naturally left handed, 1t should be allowed to remain so, for an attempt to train it to right-hand- edness may easily result in making 1t mentally inferior. Dr. H. Griesbach emphasizes this in an article in the Deutsche Medizinische Wochenschrift (Berlin), explaining that in left-hand- ed persons the speech center is in the right hemisphere of the brain instead of in the left hemisphere, as Is the case in right-handed persons.
 The result of persistent efforts to make them right-handed may be speech center that is not predomi- nantly situated on either side, which condition Griesbach says interferes with the differentiation of the hemi- spheres throughout childhood and adolescence.
 He says that once the unllateral hemishpere differentiation is com plete, as 1t is in adults, a re-education from left to right or from right to left-handedness will do no harm to the brain.

of time. Anne did not want him, but it was quite evident that she did not want anybody else to have him. So love became an undreamed of experi- ence for him until he met the little Southerner at the Atkins house party. Of course, he was too old for her and then, there was Anne to deal with still.
 The first day they met when the question of love arose in the general conversation, Stephana had heard Mayfield say that the clock of oppor- tunity for him had struck 12, and she had laughingly reminded him that even after a clock strikes 12, it strikes-1 and begins all over again. Stephana was young but she was worldly wise enough to sense Anne Rodgers atti- tude to Mayfe1d and to want to re- sent the hurt she felt he did not de- Serve. Love had come to her swiftly.

Then to his amaze ment, he found that Anne spoke of him as a bonded slave, set to fetch and car ry at her bidding. One of his friends told him that he was being criticised for not asking Anne to marry him. He had shown her every attention and had kept other men away, so proposal was later due. Mayfeld was astonish- ed. He alone knew how many times Anne had made their appointments and for his kindness in taking her around
 she had created sentiment against him. So he asked her, in quite busl- ness like fashion, to marry him. She 1aughingly refused, but his little world of people continued to act as if his marriage to Anne was only matter

"Old Man Winter" as he had playfully dubbed him. Somehow he proved in teresting. He liked to talk and tell her his ideals. She liked it, too, and they soon found thems elves in a discourse on love-"
 "Of course, there's only one man created for one particular girl,' he agreed when Rita had offered the ques- ton, "and," he went on, although we try to convince ourselves sometimes, after a disastrous affair, that it is all a matter of association-I know-I know He stopped and c1enched his hands tense1y.
 "Oh, please don't," Rita begged. 'I know what you must have suffered, but-you're not the only one, I, too, have had my little share of that kind of suffering. It was a disastrous af- fair that would have been the happiest in the world If my f1ance had not been so honorable to a foolish promise he made impulsively."

 The automobile was coming-she heard it, too, as it turned in at their drive. She switched off the lights and ran downstairs. Before she reached the foot of the flight the door opened and her husband entered.
 "Hello!" he said, merely.
 She went to him. You've been gone a long time, dear" Her voice trem- bled, but she tried to appear calm and natural. In agony she realized that he had come home stranger than when he went away.
 Yes, that's so,'' he said. He took her by the shoulders and looked at her. Ada"
 She held herself firmly. "Yes, dear. What have you to tell me?"
 How do you know I've anything to tell you?"
 She tried to smile. "Oh, I know. Don't be afraid to say what you feel. I'm not afraid to hear it"

He was coming home tonight he had written to say sol That much, but no more. And here in her room she was making ready for him. She had summoned all her forces, brought up all her reserves. But when she looked into the glass she felt herself defeated.
 Slowly she came out of her misery and raised her head. The hands of the little ivory clock on her dresser had travelled a long way since she had glanced at them last. She had bare ly time to resume her composure, put on her gown and get downstairs to welcome her husband.
 She put on a pink gown that he liked to see her wear, but her skin refused to reflect it's joyous color. One thought throbbed in her like an extra heart. What had Seth been about in the city? Helen More's husband had done just that, and the next thing Helen knew she was confronted with a divorce. Di-

from his dream. He felt sudden fierce longing to take the girl in his arms and cry out that he had been cheated of love long enough.

cret she had fought encroaching age. She had good health, her gowns were invariably becoming; she was appar- ent1y always in gay humor. But in her soul she wrest1ed and felt herself suc- cumbing.
 She began to consider Seth when they were out He had grown very f1ne-looking-the type of man every young woman adores. Therewas one girl, that Clifford girl, Maude-. She had never been jealous until one night she saw the three of them reflected in one mfrror-Seth, herself, and glow ing Maude Clifford. It was not so much jealousy then as fear and heart sickness.
 Sometimes she saw Seth looking at her strangely, but when she asked him why he always shook his head and sighed. For some time now he had seemed distracted, sad, troubled. But he would say nothing. And she dare not question him lest he tell her the truth! At least, so long as she did not actually know there was some lit tie relief in doubt.
 For four days now he had been away from home. in the city. It was the

She was smiling as she held up slen- der, ringless hand.
 Phil caught the hand in his own. Give me a chance! Will you?"
 "Wereyou ever in Carter county, in this state?" she asked.
 "Yes, when I was young. Why, why, child" "he whispered wondering1y, you are the little Lester girl used to en- tertain with stories when I was just a boy and in love with your sister. I have never loved anybody else until I met you"

 She nodded, her eyes full of happy tears, and, with his arms around her, he saw beyond the vine hung walls, the world old trail, bordered with ar 5utus that for him led back to youth and love and happiness.

look squarely at the inevitable, the thing that was. She did not like it's aspect What woman does? The brav- est woman in the world quails when life draws her firmly to one side and says to her: My dear, it's a case of the sheep and the goats. I'll have to place you with the goats.

Still happy is she whose hus- band has preceded her. But to go alone and to leave the one dear being in all the world to you behind! Well. that is the penalty many woman pays for marrying the man that is too young for her.
 He had not seemed so much too young fifteen years before. In fact, she had scarcely thought about their ages at all. She was thirty-two, fresh and fair.

And because Of the green mound and the simple shaft of white marble back in the meadow near his boyhood home, sheltered by the noun tains they had both loved Phil had come to be called the impossible bach elor. How long he sat there lost in reverie, he never knew. Suddenly he was conscious that the little visitor of the Di11inghams had come back and was talking to him.
 "I wondered if I would not find you here," he heard her say. "I am afraid that I am social failure Now, if I were back home, in the meadow, with all my neighbors' children around me- I could really shine"

younger?" He had persuaded her with his arguments. It is true she had been quite willing to be persuaded.
 She loved him and she was not un- wise when it came to men and their ways. She had at least four chances to marry-chances which her friends scolded her for refusing. She, how ever, had her own opinion of these chances and c1ung to it. She knew that Carl Potter wanted her for her money; that old MT. Dacre wanted her be- cause she was young and could take care of him in his old age; that Claude Jones and Albert Fairlts asked her, the one because 1t was his moth CTS wish, the other because 1t was his fathers. In every instance her money was the main regard. But with Seth it had been different. He had money of his own and he saw only her. It was the love of boy for a woman. Every boy experiences that love. It won her heart because in all hsr life she had never known such love be- fore.
 They had had fifteen happy years. Up to the present time she had kept her pace with Seth. Resolute1y in se-
