drank deep. One by one the braves
went to drunken sleep about the fire.
The fire died down and by the last
Pickering flame the lad saw Black
VOLTS chin sinking sleepily to his
chest. There was the slightest rustic
behind the tent He felt something
cropping for his hands and feet, felt
the point of knife Craze the skin Of
his wrist and ankles-felt the thongs
loosen and drop apart. Noiselessly,
inch by inch, he crept to the wall OF
the tent, which was carefully lifted
for him. Outside he rose and waited.
Like a shadow the girl Early Morn
stole before him and like shadow he
followed. In a few minutes they were
by the river-bank, away from the
town. The moon rose, and from the
shadow of beech the white woman
stepped forth with his rifle and pow
der-horn and bullet-pouch and some
food. She pointed to his horse little
farther down. He looked long and
silently into the Indian girls eyes and
took the white woman's shaking hand.
Once he looked back. The Indian girl
was stole as stone. A bar of moon
light showed the white woman's face
wet with tears.
Again Dave Yandell from a watch
tower saw topknot rise above patch
of cane, now leafiess and wlnter-bitten
saw hand lifted high above it with
a palm of peace toward him. And
again an Indian youth emerged, this
time leading a black horse with a
dropping head. Both came painfully
on, staggering, 1t seemed. from wounds
or weakness, and Dave sprang from

FOR THE. TOURIST
Ponqee and Crepe Are Of Service
for Summer Wear.
Material Offered In Very Nearly All
coIors Of the Rainbow; Striped
Fabric Favored.

Travel has a lure that Will reach
many this summer, whether the route
lies by steamer, railroad or motor, ana
for these there have been devised
lingerie models that are practical anu
convenient, models that take the mini
mum amount of room in packing ana
require the minimum amount of trouble
In laundering.
POngees are offered as one answer
to the problem. These are generally
used In natural neutral shade, with u
color added as trim by way OF con-
trast. Pongee dyed orchid or rose
may make borders or fiowered Gre
tonne may lend a summery suggestion.
Again, there may be embroidery, a
running-stitch floral design or dots
suggestive of peasant treatment.
These devices add much to the fem
ininity of the garment, and detract not
at all from its practicability.
Cotton crepes have come back
again for those who appreciate gar
ment that can be laundered without
being pressed These crepes this sea-
son are offered in very nearly all the
colors Of the rainbow, and the striped
constructions are favored, whether
the stripe be a narrow, evenly distrlb-
uted one, or arranged more In size
groups. Added to the basic color is
the piping in contrasting shade,
which finishes many of these little
crepe sets.
In the opinion of many there Is
nothing as practical for travel pur-
poses as crepe de chine, and nothing
more need be added concerning this
material as it has been developed for
undergarments. The tailored garments
which have been the vogue for some
time are infinitely practical from the
laundry point Of view, and their COM
fort Is not to be questioned.

LOUISE LOOKS LIKE SWEATER
Garment Is One of the Fancies Of tho
Season; Russian Influence 10
Quite Prominent.

The blouse that looks like sweater
is one of fashions fancies this season.
Blouses appear in various colOrs and
color combinations, the. most effective
by far being those in white with multi
colored embroideries. Worn with white
linen or silk skirts, such blouse
would be smart for summer.
Blouses seem to have arrived at q
happy medium so far as length is
concerned, few of the very long over
blouses being seen now, and those that
reach barely to the hips or at most
only an inch or two below are in the
majority. This length avoids the
definite break at the waistline, which
is often unbecoming.
The Russian influence Is quite prom
inent in the seasons showing of
blouses. The Russian peasant sleeve.
the round neck with low outstanding
collar and the embroidered motifs that
trim many of the blouses all carry out
this suggestion.
A good deal Of attention Is being
given to blouses in high shades, and
certainly such blouse is smart with
a dark colored suit.
The vogue for Paisley prints con-
tinues, and crepe de chine printed in
small flowers and figures is also being
used to make some attractive blouses.

CRoSS.ovER BODICE RETURNS
Supple Materials With Plenty OF Full
ness. the Proper Thing for
Garment.

The cross-over bodice with deep
V neck effect has. come back again. 1t
is a welcome relief after the plain
chemise front that has held sway so
long. Supple materials, with plenty
of fullness, are the proper thing for
the cross-over bodice. The gowns
which feature this new-old fashion
usually catch the bodice at one side
with a little bouquet Of silk flowers.
Most Of these cross-over effects have
a rather long waistline, and sometimes
q sash that ties at the left side with
ends hanging to the hem Of the skirt.
The new flecked feather is much In
evidence. A fawn crinoline hat had
fawn feathers tipped with orange.
Other hats are showing brown feathers
flecked with gold, fuchsia With silver.
gray with light blue. A black and
white costume was supplemented with
a hat Of black plush on which stood
up a cluster of white ostrich tips
fecked with black.

But, in my comprehension OF what

and let him get control Of the tug.
The tug, whose wheel / had lashed,
heading her into the waves, had been
moving slowly. Spearman pushed me
aside and went to the wbeelhouse; he
sent Luke to the engines, and from
that moment Luke was his. He turned
the tug about to where we still saw
the lights of the Miwaka. The steam
er had struck upon the reef; she hung
there for time; and Spearman-he
had the wheel and Luke, at his or
ders, was at the engine-held the tug

til the Miwaka slipped of and sank.

Natures Changes.

The eastern slope OF the ROCKIES
was more humid In the Cretaceous and
Tertiary than now, as one may judge
by the petrifled forests scattered from
the Yellowstone park to Arizona, and
the remains Of holly, oaks, .elms. chest
nuts, sequoias, and other trees In the
fiorissant shales Of Colorado. In the
Tertiary age the East and West were
again united. by land. But this was a
period of successive uplifts and de-
pressions. Areas became submerged
and their forests destroyed. Other
areas were subjected to severe changes
locally. Erosion and other disturbances
must have greatly modified the char
rcter proportion and distribution OF
the species. Then came the Ice age,
and forces re-established themselves.

Lovely Lace Gown.

One Of the gowns worn by a Lon
don debutante for presentation at
court has revived a fashion that bids
fair to become popular this summer. 1t
is the skirt Of graduated ruffles of fine
lace. The titled debutante who wore
the original with such grace selected
point d'esprit net as foundation. Over
this-the gown being all white-the
tiny flouncess of lace were arranged
in graduated tiers from hem to normal
waistline. The bodice was simple,
kerchief effect, crossed at the waist.
The sash and train were of white
satin, with panel Of the point d'esprit
down the center.

Some had gone down with her, no
doubt; but two boats had got OF, car
rying lights. They saw the tug ap-
preaching and cried out and stretched
their hands to us; but Spearman
stopped the tug. They rowed toward
us then, but when they got near, Spear
man moved the tug away from them
and then again stopped. They cried
out again and rowed toward us; again
he moved the tug away. and then they
understood and stopped rowing and
cried curses at us. One boat soon
drifted far away; we knew OF its cap
sizing by the extinguishing Of its light.
The other capsized near to where we

Interesting Talk
at the M. q. Church

Miss Gerkeh, the evangelist at the

noon on mans part in the covenant
relationship with God, which is per-
feet consideration not part but all we
have and are or ever hope to have or
be-our time, money, influence, our
loved ones, everything connected with
us as He sees fit. She defined the
word "consecration" as meaning + 7,
present and yield ourselves to God
Not forced gift but a free-will offer
ing and then, after having presented
ourselves to Him, to yield to His
loadings, just let Him work in and
through us. She said that when we
allow God to come only in a measure
INTO our lives, we are a poor specimen
OF christian and a reproach to God,
that we dishonor God when we do
not let Him finish in our lives the lob
which He has begun.
In the evening Miss Gerken spoke
from text taken from Matthew, fifth
chapter. 18th and 14th verses, Eye
are the light Of the world, We are the
salt Of the earth" She said in part
that the Christian life is more than
NE or natural goodness. There is
difference in the life of the Christ
ian because he life of Jesus Is i'm
parted to him. It is impossible to
try TO be Christian, we are either
christian or we are not. She COM
