SCOUTS RESCUE CLIMBER.

He couldn't get up and he couldn't
get downfall was the predicament
Of Louis r. Seider, director of the De-
fender club of New York. And it
fell to the lot of boy scouts to de-
fend him from the most powerful
force in the world. the force of grav-
ity. Mr.. Seider, took the notion he
would scale the Palisades of the Hud-
son river at one of their steepest
points. After ascending $50 feet he
was unable to go higher or to de-
scend in safety.

under two patrol leaders, who were
hiking along low trail. heard his
call for aid and with their scout ropes
and at much personal risk managed to
save him. Mr.. Seider proved his graft
tude by writing to the boys school
master saying that he "codld not ex-
press In words my feelings, but down
In my heart I feel deep regard for
those boys and the scout movement"

"Lady in the observation car asked
me to deliver this to you, sah." he an
nounced Importantly.
1t was note, freshly written on the
train stationery. Webster read:
"The distressed lady desires to
thank the gentleman in stateroom A
for his chivalry of yesterday. She Is
profoundly sorry that In her service
the gentleman In stateroom was so
unfortunate as to acquire a red eye
with blue trimmings"
JoLn Stuart Webster swore his
mightiest oath, "By the twelve apos-
ties, Simon. Peter. Andrew, James.

Thomas, James. Jude and Simon, and
not emitting Judas Iscarlot, the scaly
scoundrel who betrayed his Lord and
MASTER" He searched through an old
wallet until he discovered fairly
clean professional card, across the bot
tom of which he wrote, "Thank you.
]. S. W." and sent 1t to the no-longer-
distressed lady.

life Is now over" he soliloquized and
turned to his cigar. For the sake Of
my self-respect, had to let her know
I'm not hobol And now to the task

and destination; so as preliminary
I'll Interview the train conductor"
He did and under the amelorating
influence Of five-dollar bill the con-
ductor bent respectful ear to the
Websterian message.
"In Car Seven" he began, "ttere is
young lady. do not know what sec
ton she occupies, neither do ! know
her name and destination. ] only
know what she looks like"
The conductor nodded. "And you
want to ascertain her name and des-
tination?"
II do"
"All right. I have the unused por-
ton of her transportation to return
to her before we hit Salt Lake; her
name Is on the ticket a1d tie ticket
indicates her destination. I'll make a
mental note of both as soon as I've
Identified her ticket"
A few hours later the conductor
came to Webster's stateroom and
handed him gard upon which was
written:

Grande to Denver, Burlington to ST.

CHAPTER II.

Webster's dreams of bliss had, with
very slight variations. come true as
per schedule. In Salt Lake City he
abandoned the beefsteak on his dam
aged eye for two businesslike leeches,
which quickly reduced the nocturne
effect around his orb, enabling him,
the third day, to saunter forth among
his fellowmen. By the end of the
week he was being rei2carnated. and
so he packed huge new wardrobe
trunk with his latest purchases and
journeyed on to Denver. Coincident
with his arrival there, we again take
up the thread of our story.
One hour after His trunk arrived the
gentleman from Death valley might
have been observed standing before
cheval glass looking long and
earnestly at the reflection of his mid
dle-aged person, the while he marked
the fit of his new raiment. John
Stuart Webster was all dressed up for
the first time in three long, labor-rid-
den years, and was tremendously glad
Of 1t. He lighted cigar and stepped
forth into Seventeenth street, along
which he strolled until he came to a
certain building. into the elevator of
which he entered and was whisked to
the twelfth floor, where he alighted
and found himself before wide portal
which bore in gold letters the words:
Engineers Club"
The Engineers club was the closest
approach to home that John Stuart
Webster had known for twenty years.

ing-although perchance there were a
few more gray hairs In the thIckly

sitting In his favorite seat by the
window and turning the cards in his
eternal game of solitaire, in blissful
ignorance that John Stuart Webster
stood within the portals Of home and
awaited the fatted calf.

but not quite. As Webster's body
struck the ffoor the big automatic
came out Of the holster; swinging in
a weak circle, it covered the other.

bled. IF you move before my head
clears, I'll put four bullets into you be-
fore you reach the corridor"
He waited about minute. then with
the gun he pointed to the car door and
the masher stepped out. Webster hand
ed the porter his gun and followed !;
two minutes later he returned, drag
glng his assallant by the collar. Up
the steps he jerked the big battered
hulk and tossed 1t in the corner of the
vestibule, just as the girl came through
the car, making for the diner up ahead.
Again she favored him with that
calm, grave, yet vitality interested gaze,
nodded appreciatively, made as If to
pass on, changed her mind, and said
very gravely: You area very court
ly gentleman. SIR"
He bowed. There was nothing else
to do, nothing that he could say under
the circumstances. To use his chivalry
as wedge to open an acquaintance
never occurred to tim-but his whisk-
ers did occur to him. Hastily he backed
into his stateroom and closed the
door. presently he rose and surveyed
himself critically in the small mirror
over the washstand.
"No, JOHNNY" he murmured, 1--WE
can't go into the diner now. We're too
blamed disreputable. We were bad
enough before that big swine hung the
shanty on our right eye. but whatever
our physical and personal feelings, far

SCOUTS IN WINTER CAMP

That camping with the boy scouts
has ushered In a new era is evidenced
by the vast interest shown In winter
camping as opposed to the ordinary
summer camp conducted during the
long school vacation period.
Last season over 2e0,O00 boy
scouts in more than $4,000 neighbour
hood group camps of boy scouts
learned the ways Of the woods, and
by so doing have new interest to lead
them again into the great out of doors.
These youthful "Nimrods." in their
enthusiasm fol the conquest Of the
wonderland thus revealed. will in great
er number this winter continue the
camping program in broken doses. so
to speak, on weekend and vacation
throughout the days of the whole win
ter season. and grown-ups will wonder
why they didn't discover similar plan
long ago.
Thus say the scouts: Mosquitoes
we have In summer, but in winter no
one is lonesome without their music.
Flies are the bane of our summer ex-
istence, and won't learn to be careful
where they walk. but they, too, are
conspicuous by their absence after No
vember. Swimming is not so popular
in winter camps, although few of
us ere hardy enough to dive in even
when 1t is necessary to break the ice
on the old swimmin' hole. Winter
gives snow and ice which helps us to
forget swimming, anyhow. and re-
lieve our parents of much of the worry
about canoes, boats and disaster In
camp.
Yes, we must have more blankets to
keep us warm and more fire wood,
but wood you cut for yourself warns
you twice, and the scout motto is BE
prepared Many scouts will tent in
