TRAILS ABOUND in ROMANCE
Written Testimonial ef the Trials and
Triumphs of the Men Who
Fashioned Them.

Nothing Is more romantic than the
trail, remarks a writer In the Los An
geles Times. 1t Is the artery of trade
and life itself. On land 1t moves about
the bases of the mountains, out of the
lowlands, winding through the chapnr-
raj, along the easy grades Of the can
yons, never forcing its way. but def
nitely avoiding the slippery rock face
and the poison oak; upward into the
fresh air that breathes through the
pass; on, through the pass and into
the unknown beyond Into the valley Of
hearts desire 1t carries the laden mule
and the traveller with his pack.
Across the great deserts the trail is
a caravan route. seeking the shades of
cliff and avoiding the shifting dunes !;
stretching unerringly toward the next
water hole. 1t Is the written testimo-
nlal of the trails and triumphs of the
men who have gone before 1t is the
only pathway of the devout pilgrim. as
of the warlike Bedouin. Every habita-
tion of man that has ever dominated
one of these great trails has made his
tory and has been In Its day treasure
house.

Action Unexpected.
It was totally unexpected. Mr.

IN. T. A. Staff Specially

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 10.--"How did
you manage to deceive your hus-
band?"
That's the question everybody
would like to have Mrs. f. E. A.
South answer.
She fooled her husband, q grocery
employe. into believing that II. chill
dren whom she had taken into their
home in IA years were her own The
truth that she had adopted them
came out only after she announced
at So that she had given birth to New
Year triplets. :, S...... ... H..
That's my business" said Mrs.
South, when the question was put
pointblank to her, but / managed it
all right"
II don't yet see how she put it over
on me-" says the mystified South,
who has ordered his wife to give up
the triplets, although he has agreed
to keep six other children. Two
adopted babies died. \
II rather marvel at Mrs. South's
success in deceiving her husband"
says Mrs. NJ. T. Mitchell, superin-
tendent of the maternity hospital
from which Mrs. South adopted the
youngsters. The triplets were not
relsted, but were born about the same
time.
Other Instances.
But Mrs. South is not the only in
stance of this kind, according to Mrs.
Mitchell. Says she:
II am pretty sure there are other
cases in which woman has tsken
a baby from this hospital and passed
it off as her own, keeping the secret
even from her husband.
"In many other cases only the hus.
band and wife know that the baby
is adopted. Their friends are never
told of the circumstances of the
baby's birth" g..
Mrs. Mitchell explains that women
come to Atlanta from distant cities.
They tell neighbors that they will be
gone several months. 4
Husband goes after the wife and
when they return with a new baby,
the community accepts the baby as
the couples own.
"Mrs. South made a mistake says
Mrs. Mitchell, when she, gave SO
much publicity to the birth of the
triplets.
81 would have kept her secret for
ever.
"However, must keep my hospital
records straight and | am obliged to
tell the truth when an investigation
is started" ..
. Differences Past.
Mrs. South and her husband have
made up their differences following
the discovery of her deception.
Having to work for the children
made my husband better man." says
Mrs. South.
"She's always been a good wife
and mother, too" says South. +
"And we love our daddy and our
mamma; they're always good to us,'
chorus the children.
