10 information az 20 the funeral

ring the reporter 20 her husband for
any information.
we didn't learn OF the death OF
my wifes father until Monday
night" said Jacomet. az IL 10 eX-
plain the tardy announcement OF
the relationship between them and
the old hermit. I'VE really don't
know a thing about his late manner
OF living. his health or anything else.
as IL has been a long time since we
saw him. I think, however. he had
very little money. or course. no had
clear title 20 the land about his
house and the home Itself. We are
not going TO do anything about that
now, however, but will let the thing
take its natural course" half unused
Wozner's son-in-law.
Nothing to Tell"
Jacomet is a man or perhaps 40
and his wife Is but a few years his
junior. They have been married al
most 20 years, Jacomet intimated.
He always used the word I'VE" when
explaining their relationship with
the aged man, and neither appeared
affected or surprised at the death OF
his father-in-law.
There is really no story TO give
out. nothing at all; too much has
been said already" he said sarcas-
ucally. You know as much as 1
know and maybe more. We did not
trouble the man very much.
When Will the funeral be? Well,
I really can't say. We have made
no arrangements yet" But At the
Orvis undertaking parlors it was
said that the services would be held
privately at the l.. II. Orvis chapel
at 2 o'clock this afternoon. and that
burial would be held in Highland
cemetery. In answer to the question
as 10 who was TO take charge Of
me funeral and bear the expenses
no definite reply was made.
Jacomet became more free in con-
versation "a the interview continued.

Cassidy and he told me he had the
deed TO the land in the Office vault.
That was about all / could learn.
We are just going to let things take
their natural course now and know
they will come out all right"
Neither Mr.. or Mrs. JacOnet had
formed any opinion as 70 how the
aged father had met his death.
They said they hadn't even read a
newspaper until Monday night when
neighbor told them that their
father was dead. They only knew
that ne had been found dead on the
floor Of his two-room hut, with
hands and feet tied by strong ropes
and a gag over his mouth.
In the meanwhile the police have
abandoned early theories OF the
manner in which the hermit had
met his death and are working on a
new clue that was advanced in an
investigation Tuesday afternoon, and
which is expected 70 lead TO early
arrests IN the case.

There are some smooth cloths among
new arrivals that are effectively
trimmed with bands of patent leather
The combination is particularly good
in beige or gray with black, and such
coats are available for almost any sort
of wear. Pile fabric coats are lined
with very light weight soft silks that
do not detract from their suppleness.
The handsome garment at the left
of the two coats pictured, is fair
example of the mode. Ii is made of
cloth resembling bolivia, in the deep
est and richest of puppies, with gray
embroidery and gray silk lining. The
drapery is so managed as to make a
cape at the back. Collars are less
ample than they have been and in
some models they become short ties
or scarfs in which one end slips
through slot in the other.

color harmonies to begin with. and
these are enhanced by metallic %eaves
that add the required CLEAN to the

bright they are, they "have a grace
In being gay" and are far from garish.
A girdle is rarely a simple affair IN
these days; it is usually ingeniously
made, as revealed by the model pic

school Of the Shingon sect Of Bud

its name is relation to Emperor
DaiSo, who reigned from sos to $50.
Its name originated from ne fact that
It's founder, Abbot Shoho, came to this
village and exclaimed after he drank
from an old farmers spring: THE
water was as good as daigo!" 1t is q
Buddhist word meaning an unctuous
rich liquor. The posthumous title of
the emperor, must have originated
from his devotion to the temple and
its founder, as well as from his burial

CHAPTER VI-continued.

Harris was accustomed TO his
daughters frankness, and as a rule
paid little regard to it. He was willing
enough TO be flayed, in moderation. by
her keen tongue; in fact, he took a
3 secret delight in her unrestrained sal,
lies, but that was different from de-
fiance.
"Well talk about that some other
time. too" he said. And you'll milk
the cows tonight as usual"
Beulah opened her lips as though TO
answer, but closed them again. arose,
and walked out of the kitchen. For
her the controversy was over; the die
was cast. Her nature admitted of
any amount Of disputation up TO a
certain point, but when the irresist-
ible force crashed into the immovabIe
object she wasted no wind on words.
With her war was war.

At the foot of the garden 3eulah
paused irresOlute, the suitcase swing
ing gently in her hand. She had made
no plans for the decisive step events OF
the day had forced upon her, but the
step Itself she felt TO be inevitable.
She was not in love with Jim Travers;
she had turned the whole question
over in her mind that afternoon, weigh
ing it with judicial impartiality. sup
posing all manner of situations TO try
out her own emotions, and she had
come TO the conclusion that Travers
was merely an incident in her life, a
somewhat inspiring incident, perhaps,
but an incident none the less. The
real thing-the vital matter which de-
manded some exceptional protest-was
the narrow and ever narrowing horizon

spirit. with its dumb, insistent stretch
ings for the infinite, rebelled. 1t was
not matter of filial duty; IL was not
matter of love; to her II was a mat
ter of existence. She saw her ideals
dimly enough at Test, and she would
burst every cord Of affection and con-
vention rather than allow them to be
submerged in the gray, surrounding
murk of materialism.
Perhaps it was custom and the
subtle pullings of association that
drew her feet down the path across
the bench to the edge of the stream
that gurgled gently in the still night
The stars blinked strange challenge
from the sky, as though to say, "Here
Is the tree of knowledge, If you dare
to drink thereof"
At length she turned her back on the
stream and took the path past the
house and down to the corral, where
she paused, her ear arrested by the
steady drone Of milking. A lantern
sitting on the black earth cast a little
circle of light and threw a docile COW
in dreadful silhouette against the barn.
And by that dim light Beulah dis
cerned the bent form of her mother.
