heart sank; she never doubted the
purpose fer which the boat 1 was
brought into the bayou, or that it
nearly concerned herself.
At noon Mrs. HicksyeAs sullen %
in the morning, brought them their
dinner. She had scarcely quilted
the lott when = shriil whistle pierced
the silence that hung above the
clearing. It was twice repeated,
and the two women were heard to
go from the cabin. Perhaps hall
an hour elapsed, then > step became
audible, on the packed earth Of the
dooryard. Some one entered the
room below and began to ascend
the narrow stairs, and Betty's
fingers closed convulsively about
Hannibafs. This was neither
Mrs. Hicks nor her daughter, mol
Sloss0n with his clumsy shuttle
There was brief pause when the
landing was reached. but it was
only momentary; q hand lifted thu
bar, the door was thrown open
and its space framed the figure Of
a man. It was John Murren.
Standing there he regarded Betty
i'm silence, but a deep-seated fir,
glowed in his sunken eyes. TIL,
sense OF possession was ragin,
through him, his temples throbbed
a fever stirred his blood. Love
such as it was, he undoubtedly fel
for her, and even his giant project
with all its monstrous ramifica
lions, was lost sight of for the mo
ment. She was the inspiration To-
1t all, the goal and reward fo
which he struggled.

| The girls eyes were dilating will
mute horror, for by some swift
lntuitive process of the mind
which asked nothing of the logic o
events, but dealt only with conclu
sions, Murrell stood revealed a
Norton's murderer. Perhaps h
read her thoughts, but he had live
in the degenerate ambitions unit
the common judgments or the un
derstanding Of them no longer ex
listed for him. That Betty had love,
Norton seemed inconsequentia
even; it was a memory to be swep
away by the force of his create
passion. So he watched her smil
ingly. but back of the smile wa
the menace of unleashed impulse.
Cant you find some word @
welcome for me, Betty" he aske
at length, still softly, still wit
something of entreaty in hi stone

have thanked God had it been Ton

WORKING FOR ALL

/ The good old winter time has many
joys for young an dold but brings
only tdouble to public utilities.
Storms uproot tdees that crash
down telephone lines, and heavy
snowfalls in the mountains put power
lines out Of commission.
Have users of these services ever
thaught how priyately-owned utili-
tiles have only one interest-to re-
store servie Immediately?
In public ownrship this incentive
minimize losses from interrupted
service does not exist as responsible
ty is deferred until election day.
Those whose time is spent in arti-
ficially-heated buildings, and who go
home to comfortable firesides and
warm beds, give a passing thought
to the trouble" crews, who sally
forth on an instants notice, day or
night, t meet emergency calls when
lines are broken down.
Probably no othr line of business
gives such great service for as small
a return as do public utilities.

GOVERNMENT, MEANS
PROTECTION


1t is generally conceded that a
man in afree country has a right to
strike or quit work. By the same
token, men have right to work.
Government recognizes no greater
rights attaching to union labor than
to non-union labor and both union
and non-union labor are entitled to
equal prtection and consideration.
Union labor has been overlooking the
fact that non-union man had per-
feet right to work and deceive the
full protection of the governmnt.
Committing on this phase of the
situation, United States Attorney
General Daugherty in a recent ad-
drss said to workman, Your princi-
pal trouble lies, and your greatest
danger is, in the radicalism and
character of some of your most prom
inent leaders. Your security lies IN
the constitution of the United States
the constitution of the United Stats
and in the laws of the United States,
and in the good opinion, by you re-
served of all the American people.
A TALK WITH A PAYETTE MAN
Mr.. l.. c. Jones, proprietor o. K.
Shoe Shop on Main Street, Tells
of His Experience.
There is nothing like talk with
one of our own citizens for giving
hope and encouragement to the anx-
ious sufferer from the dread kidney
disease. We, therefore, give here
an interview with a Payette man;
my kidneys got out of order
caused from heavy lifting and over
work, says Mr.. Jones. Ny back
was lame and it became so stiff over
night I could hardly get out of bed in
the morning. When l stopped to
pull no my shoes a catch seized me
in the small of my back and l had a.
hard time to straighten. My muscles
were drawn and knew the trouble
lay in my kidneys. 1 used Doan's
Kidney Pills and obtained the de-
sired relief"
Price coo, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-getI

Mr.. Jones had. Faster-Milburu Co.,
