 Then Grandpa came and hugged us both, and patted us, and said, There, there !" and pulled off his glasses and, wiped them very fast and very hard.
 But 1t wasn't only minute or two| before Mother was laughing again, and saying, "Nonsense and "The idea ]" md this was pretty way to introduce her little Marie to her new home Then she hurried me to the dearest little room l ever saw, right out or hers, and took off my things. Then we went all over the house. And it's just as lovely us can be-not at all like Fathers in Andersonville.
 Oh, Fathers is fine and big and handsome, and all that, of course; but not like this. His is just a nice place to eat and sleep in, and go to when 1t rains. But this-this you just want 10 live in all the time. Here there are curtains way up and sunshine, and flowers in pots, and magazines, and cozy hooks with cushions everywhere; and books that you've just been read ing laid down. (All Fathers books are in bookcases, always, except while ones In your hands being read)
 Grandpa's other daughter, Mothers sister, Hattie, lives here and keeps house for Grandpa. She has little boy named Lester, six years old; and her husband is dead. They were away for what they called weekend when we came, but they got here little after we did Monday afternoon; and they're lovely, too.
 The house is straight-up-and-do one with back and front, but no sides except the one snug up to you on the right and left And there isn't any yard except little bit of a square brick one at the back where they have clothes and ash barrels, and a little grass spot In front at one side of the steps, not big enough for our old ca to take nap in, hardly. But It's per fectly lovely inside; and it's the in- sides of houses that really count, just as 1t Is the insides of people-their hearts, I mean; whether they're goo and kind or hateful and disagreeable.
 We have dinner at night here. and I've been to the theater twice already in the afternoon. I've got to go 10 school next week. Mother says, but so far I've just been having q good time.

And Mother said, yes, yes, indeed, she knew she was; and she was so glad to be there and that everything was going to be just the same, wasn't itf Only-then all of sudden she looked over at me and began to cry again-only, ot course. things couldn't be just the

 It was one day when I was in there buying some white thread for Nurse Sarah, and IL was little while after I had asked the doctor if divorce something that made me think you could buy divorces, and had suddenly determined to ask Mir. Jones If he had them for sale. (Of course all this sounds very silly to me now, for l know that divorce Is very simple and very common. It's just like a marriage certificate, only 1t unmar- rles you instead of marrying you 1; but didn't know It then. And If I'm going 10 tel this story I've got to tell it just as 1t happened, of course)
 We'll asked Mir, Jones If you could buy divorces. and if he had them for sale; and you ought to have heard those men laugh. There were six of them sitting around the stove behind me.
 "Oh, yes, my little maid (abOye all things l abhor to be called little maid ) one of them cried. You can buy them If you've got money enough i; but l don't reckon our friend Jones here has got them for sale"
 Then they all laughed again, and winked at each other. Chats another disgusting thing-winks when you ask perfectly civil question But what can you do? Stand 1t, that's all There's such lot of things we poor women have to stand ) Then they quleted down and looked very sober the kind of sober you know is faced with laughs in the baek-and began 10 tell me what il divorce really was. l can't remember them all, but l can some of them. Of course understand now that these men were trying to be smart and were talking for each other, not for me And l knew II then-a little. We know lot more things sometimes than folks think we do. Well. as near as l can remember II was like this
 "A divorce is a knife that cuts a knot that hadn't ought to ever been tied,' said one.
 "A divorce Is jump in the dark, said another.
 No, 1t ain't. It's jump from the frying pan into the fire piped up MT Jones'

REBEL ROUNDUP
BRINGS DEATH TO
LEADER CARRASSO
Killed in Battle With
Federal Forces in
Durango

Mexico City, Nov. 1O.-The round
up of the rebels who have menaced
the power of President Oregon has
now snuffed out the life of General
John Carrasco, leader of the rebel
ious factions along the west coast
and particularly in the state of Sina-
loa. He was killed yesterday togeth-
er with seven of his men in battle
with federal forces at Guamuchilito
in the state of Durango. Not long
ago it was understood dthat Carrasco
was attempting to form union with
General Murguia, the rebel leader,
who was captured and executed last
week.
The announcement of the passing
of Carrasco came to the war office
last night from General Juan Torres,
federal commander in the Durango
region. The government soldiers
surprised Carrasco and the remnants
of his band of 3 5men quickly scat
tered after a sanguinary encounter in
which several were killed and five
were taken prisoners, along with
quantity of military supplies.
Federal troops are pursuing those
who got away General Torres re-
ported that his casualties in the COM
bat amounted to only two injured.

POTASH OF TEXAS
BELIEVED ENOUGH
FOR ALL DEMAND
Scientists Find Immense
Bed Indications of
Potash Salt


Lawrence, Kan, Nov. 10-Potash
beds large enough to supply the en-
tire American demand for fertilizer
and perhaps provide a surplus for
export are likely to be discovered
in western Texas, according to H. j.
Hoots, now an instructor in the de-
partment of Geology in the Univer-
sity of Kansas. For the past year
Mr.. Hoots, as member of the
United States Geological Survey,
carried on Investigations in the pro-
spective fields.
In a territory extending approx
mately 125 miles north and south
and an equal distance. east. and west
along the new Mexican border,
strong indications have been found
of what is perhaps the largest salt
bed in the world. Surveys indicate
approximately $4,000 square miles
of prairie country underlayed with
a bed of rock salt that ranges from
40 to 1900 feet in thickness. This
salt bed lies at a depth Of 900 to
1900 feet, making it convenient for
mining operations. The conditions
which are favorable to the forma
ton of salt are favorable also to the
formation of potash.
Four test wells are to be sunk this
winter to get accurate figures about
the underlying strata. One well al
ready is under way and the core is
being preserved to show the thick
ness of the different materials pen
etrated. If these test wells result
as expected in showing the value of
the salt deposits, other tests will be
made to determine the limits of the
field and the location of its richer
parts.
Minor test wells at Means, River,
Bryant, Burns, Mcdowell and St.
Rita have produced the raw potash
but not on a production basis.
'If this potash field proves what
is expected" said Mr.. Hoots, "it will
mean that the United States has
found an internal source which is
needed so much not only as soil
fertilizer, but also in the manufac
ture of soap, glass, explosives and
medical supplies. Comparatively
little potash is now being obtained

WHO OWNED PISTOL
USED IN CARLETON
.CHR|STLER KILLING
Officials Puzzled Over
Claims Regarding
Weapon

Havre, Mont, Nov. 10--Ar effort
was mn1e today to trace the pistol
with which Rev. Leonard Jacob
Christler and Mrs. Margaret Garlic
ton were shot to death in the Chris
tier home recently after the identi-
fcation last night Of the weapon by
former Policeman g. J. Sunday.
The revolver is said to be ore used
by John Jenkins, a client of Mrs.
Carleton's husband, during an al
legged assault in a pool room three
years ago.
Ownership of the pistol, which
was found in the hand Of Mrs. Car
Teton was not determined at the cor
oners inquest, which found that Mrs
Carleton had shot the preacher and
herself. .
Mrs. Joseph Pyle, OF Butte, Mrs.
Carleton's mother, said the weapon
did not belong to Mrs. Carleton.
According to the police the dead
woman's husband, FRANKIE. Carleton,
acted as attorney for jenkins at the
time of the alleged assault in 1919.
Former officer Sunday said that the
pistol was taken from Jenkins by
Jake Shockney, who turned it over
to Sunday. He has not yet been
able to account for the presence in
the Christler home of the pistol,
which he identified by number.
