Lund greeted Rainey with curt
nod. Hansen was still at the helm.

alert, their eyes on Lund. They had
found a new master, and they were
c0wed, eager to do their best
I'll show this crew they've got a

Rainey told him.
'We'll see what we can do for him"
said Lund. He's better off without
that fakir, that's a cinch. Called me

humored laugh. Got spunk, she has,
And she's trim bit. A slip of gal,

Rainey?"
He smiled as IL the prospect suited
him. A suspicion leaped into Rainey's
brain. Lund had said he would not see
q decent girl harmed. But the man
was changed He had fought and won,
and victory shone In his eyes with a
glitter that was immune from SYM
patty, for all his air of good-nature.
He had said that a man under his
skin was just an animal. His appraisal
OF the girl struck Rainey with appre-
hension. ITO the victor belongs the
spoils." Somehow the quotation per-
sisted. What If Lund regarded the
girl as legitimate loot? He might have
talked differently beforehand, 10 as
sure himself of Rainey's support.
And Rainey suddenly felt as If his
support had been uncalled upon, a
frail reed at best. Lund had not need
ed him; would he need him, save as an
aid, not altogether necessary, with
Hansen aboard. to run the ship?
He said nothing, but thrust both
hands into the side pockets of the pilot

The shippers eyes closed and his
frame settled under the clothes. The
girl flung herself ON the bed In un-

his eyebrows at Tamada, who
shrugged his shoulders.

who halted his stride at sight of her.

some GALL

An exchange published at Lester
shire, n. Y, has the following relat-
i've to one of its citizens who is going
to build house of lumber from Him
OILS, millwork from Iowa, and nails
from Chicago Mail Order House:
"One of our citizens is going to
build house next spring. He ex-
poets to buy the lumber in Illinois,
the millwork in Iowa and the furni-
ture somewhere else. The paint also
he will buy by mail He doesn't ex-
pect to buy anything in Lestershire.
All he expects this town to furnish is
the money to pay for the stuff.
He is one of those fellows who be-
lleve it is more blessed to receive than
to give. He believes that the accept
ance of thing carries with it no OBJ
legation to reciprocate. He thinks it
IS entirely right that the town should
support him, but entirely wrong that
he should be expected to help support
the town.
When he asks you to stop mo-
ment to admire his new house YOU
might also stop a moment longer to
admire his gall.
There is one consolation: He will
probably get stung"

tail druggists of the western part OF
| Long Island have formed an organi-
cation with determination to cause
people to BUY AT HOME-to buy
in other words, in their (the drug
gists') stores. When it is known that
probably 80 per cent of the population
of the aforementioned section COM
mutes daily to New York, one can
readily understand why these drug
gists are concerned to the extent of
launching a publicity campaign de-
signed to cause these commuters to
BUY AT HOME.
In order to make clear to the COM
muters the fact that the man behind
the prescription counter and drug
counter of their home town store is
a regular human being, is a real
friend and one deserving of patron
age. the druggists organization has
been using display advertising in the
cars Of the Long Island railroad. The
cards used are the usual size found
in transportation agencies.
Across the top in two lines of bold
face is the following:
PATRONIZE THE DRUGGIST
In YOUR HOME TOWN!.i
In the center of the card is a med
allion containing these words:
TRADE WHERE YOU LIVE!!.
To the left of the medallion we
read:
HE rs AT YOUR SERVICE IN EV-
cry EMERGENCY-A FAITHFUL
FRIEND
On the right:
HE CARRIES ALL THE DRUGS
AND TOILET ARTICLES ADVER-
TISED IN THIS Carl!
Two bold lines across the card fol-
low, thusly:
AT CITY PRICES OR LESS!!
And the final line in large caps is:
RETAIL DRUGGISTS OF LONG
ISLAND.
The Long Island druggists are back
ing this drive" with real service and
superior merchandise and are deter
mined that they will pull all strings
possible in order to make the Long
Island commuters see the wisdom of
BUYING AT HOME. Late reports
are to the effect that their publicity
is proving a great success,
which goes to show that buying out
of town is merely thoughtless hab-
it with most people.

the state entry will run to 1000 teams,
as against SIS teams when held at
Milwaukee last winter.
Milwaukee now leads the van of the
outside cities with an entry of over
one hundred teams, which will be in
creased to about two hundred teams
when the entries close on January Is.
1922.
Closely following Milwaukee, will
be the bidders for the 1923 tourna-
ment, and it is estimated that Green
Bay will cut such splash with their
entry Of fifty teams that they will
force aside all competition in their
claims to entertain the state bowlers
during the winter of 1923. Following
Green Bay we will have Kenosha.
GAINESVILLE and Fond du Lac with Is
to ~ teams each, and down the line
of all hustling Wisconsin cities the
entry will run from one to ten teams
each, and they will help bring the to-
tai up to the great figure predicted.
Wisconsin, as a bowling state, has
been made by the Wisconsin Bowling
Association, and they are now reap
ing the benefits of many years hard
work, by securing a record enty each
year. which tops all other state tour
naments in the country.
Secretary Bill Fenske of Milwaukee
is IN charge of the reservations and
reports that inquiries are coming in
every day for dates for the tourna-
ment
The bowlers of the state can reach
Mr.. Fenske at IT'S Second ST., Mil
waukee, Wis.,, and if they desire to
telephone they can call Milwaukee
Grand 1898, which will get him any
time during the afternoon and even
ing.
1t is hoped that Lacrosse on the
west and Superior on the north will
be the limit of the distance, and that
teams from these cities will enter the
big tournament. They have done so
IN the past and know what a great
tournament the Wisconsin Kegelers
hold each year, SO are urged to again
make arrangements to attend the
state bowling classic when held in
Madison during the latter part of
January and early February, 1922.

venience has been arranged SO that
the tournament will please the most
exacting ten-pin artists.
Ten practically new maple drives
have been secured at Madison to bowl
the tournament on, and hundred
sets of the finest select tenpins have
been in dry storage for several weeks,
so that they will be we'll dried out and
full of life, giving the bowler a chance

The early reservation of dates from

augurs well for a great tournament,
