Clay Appoints Himself chaperon.
AS he travelled east Clay began to
slough the outward marks of his call

fore he left the ranch. At Tucson he
shed his chaps and left them in care
of friend at the LOnghorn corral.

hat flew off while the head beneath it
WIS stuck out Of q windov Of the
coach somewhere south of Denver. Be.
fore he passed under the Welcome
arch in that city the silk kerchief had
been removed from his brown neck
and retired to the hip pocket which
formerly held his forty-f1ve.
The young cattleman began to flatter
himself that nobody could now tell
he was wild man from the hills who
had never been curried. He might
have spared himself the illusion. Tie

1t was just before noon at one OF the
small plains towns east Of Denver that
a girl got on the train and was taken
by the porter to il section back Of Gay
Lindsay. The man from Arizona NJ
ticed that she was refreshingly pref
ty in an unsophisticated way.

DRY of those about her. She was firt-
ing joyously with a sense of newly
awakened powers. The man from Gra-
ham county, Arizona, felt uneasy In his
mind. The girl was flushed with life.
In way she was celebrating her es-
cape from the narrow horizon in which
she had lived. In her unsophistication
danger lay. For she was plainly
easily influenced, and in the beat OF
her healthy young blood probably
there was latent passion.
They left the diner before Clay. He
passed them later in the vestibule OF
the sleeper. They were looking out to-
cether on the moonlit plain through
which the train was rushing. The,arm
of the man was stretched behind her
to the railing and with the motion OF
the car the girl swayed back slightly
against him.
Again Clay sought the smoking COM
partment and was led into talk by the
officer. 1t was well past eleven when
he rose, yawned, and announced, I'm
goin' to hit the hay" .-.....-.
Most of the berths were made up
and it was with little shock Of sur
prise that his eyes fell on Kitty Mason

charmed bird while his caressing voice
wove the fairy tale Of New York to
which she yielded herself in strange
delight.
"Don't youall want 20 berth made

It was the impatient porter who In.
terrupted them. The girl sprang up
TREMENDOUSLY to accept
"Oh, please. Is it late7" Her glance
swept down the car and took in the
fact that her section alone was not
made up. Il didn't know-why, what

Of him to the back Of the horse. The
steer pounded past so close behind
that one Of its horns grazed the tail OF
the cow pony.
It was a superb piece of h0rseman-
ship, perfectly timed, us perfectly exc
cuted.
The girl lay breathless in the arms
of the man, her heart beating against
his, her face buried in his shoulder.
She was dazed. half fainting from the
reaction of her fear. The next she
remembered clearly was being lowered
into the arms Of her father.
He held her tight, his face tortured
with emotion. She was the very light
of his soul, and she had shaved death
by a hairs breadth. A miracle had
saved her, but he would never forget
the terror that had gripped him.
The girl Struggled closer to him, her
arms round his neck.
A young man descended from the
car, handsome, trim, and we'll got up.
He had been tailored by the best mans
outfitter in New York. Nobody on
Broadway could order dinner better
than he. The latest dances he could do
perfectly. He had the reputation OF
knowing exactly the best thing to say
on every occasion. Now he proceeded
to say it.
"Corking bit Of rldlng-never saw
better. I'll give you my hand on that,
my man."
The cowpuncher found bunch Of
manicured fingers in his rough, brown
paw. He found something else, for
after the pink nand had gone there

car manager seated her opposite him
at table for two. When Clay handed
her the menu card she murmured

her cheeks and looked helplessly at
the list In her hand. Quite plainly she
vas taking her first long journey.
The COW puncher helped her fill the
order card. She put herself entirely In

listening to him shyly and yet eagerly.
The man was variation Of type
known to Lindsay. That type was the
Arizona bad-man. II this extensively
dressed fellow was not the eastern
equivalent Of the western gunman.
Clay's experience was badly at fault:
Clay had already made friends with
the Pullman conductor. He drifted to
him now on the search for informa-
ton.

= Poland will export more than 1 .oeo 900 geese in the three months from Aug. IS to Nov. 15, according to an article pub lished in a Warsaw newspaper. Before the war the export of geese was an im- portant industry in the various parts of Poland. Though there were no complete statistics in the number of geese raised in the three partiboned portions of Poland. it is estimated that approximate iy 5000 900 geese were raised annually. About one-half of these were exported to Germany each year.
 Owing to the lack of refrigerator cars on the Polish raiiways. nearly all of the geese have had to be shipped while alive. although arrangements are now being
 made for refrigeration plants and CATS which will make it possible for Poland to export dressed Eeeese to the number of about 200 900 from Nov. 15 the end of the prsSent' year. '-s
 During the war years, enly a small percentage of the normal number ct geese were raised, but since the end of hostiIftIes in- 1920. considerable improve meut has been. shown. and during 1891 about 100000 live geese were exported to Germany Dutch and Danish mer. chants are developing a large trade ir Polish geese.

According to many of the men who have been in the business for some time, the expensive car is the best one in the long run. Wear. and tear on the automobile is large item in the busi- ness, and the hard work that a machine is forced to perform soon puts it out of order unless it is built to stand that kind of work.
