than l do in the summer" laughed Mr..
Sun.
"Well," said Madame Snow, "you are
very we'll liked in the summer time,
I've heard. Of course I only go by
what l hear. I don't know anything
about you in the summer time"
Madame Snow laughed cold, cold
laugh.
Yes" said Mr.. Snow, 81 am very
welcome in the summer time, though
now and again I am complained OF
because 1 am not hot Yes, they do
complain of me now and again.
"But when I disappear for few
days there is a fuss! Oh, how they
do complain then!
"They say that it doesn't seem like
the summer time when the sun isn't
out and they say other things like
that.
"They are glad, I can tell you, when
I come cut after have been taking a
long rest.
"When week goes by in the sum-
mer, as sometimes happens, and ]
have let the King of the Clouds and
the Army Of Raindrops, or old King
Thunder and old Queen Thunder have
their way about things then when |
appear again the people are just so
pleased to see me that they smile all
over their faces"
"How can they do that?" asked
Madame Snow. Don't they smile the
same way at all times with their
mouths and perhaps with their eyes?''
Eyes" said Mr.. Snow, "they smile
with their lips or mouths and their
eyes twinkle, but when I say that
they smile all over their faces well,
they do!
"They give such wonderful smiles,
such happy, happy smiles.
"Then I feel rather sorry I've left
them for so long, but still | must give
the others a chance.
"Then, too, there must be rain to
keep the country in good condition.
"There must be plenty of rain, and
sometimes, I will admit, haven't al
ways gone away when I should have
done SO.

have become very, very dry and yet I
have stayed about.

| One day, as CrusOe and came down
from the ridge, we met Captain Mag

small metal-backed mirror, which

this retired spot to admire not the
view but his own physiognomy.
When the captain saw me he stopped
full in the path. There was a growth
Of fern on either side. / approached
slowly, and, as he did not move,
paused, and held out the mirror.

For an instant his face changed.
His evasive eyes were turned to me
searchingly and sharply. He took
the glass from my hand and slipped It
into his pocket. / made a movement
to pass on, then stopped, with faint
dawning Of discomfort. For the heavy
figure of the captain still blocked the
path.
A dark flush had come into the mans
face. His yellow teeth showed be-
tween his parted lips. His eyes had
swimming brightness.

BEST WAY TO CLEANSE SILKS
Fabric Should Be Scrubbed With
Brush Instead of Rubbing Be-
tween Hands or on Board.

The best way to clean pongee, tus-
sab and novelty silks is to wash them
in lukewarm water with good soap.
Instead of rubbing between the
hands or on board, material of this
sort should be scrubbed with a brush
and 1t will need rinsing in at least
three waters.
The greatest danger in handling ma
terial of this kind is in using water
which Is too hot, for very hot water
causes heat wrinkles which will not
disappear even under the iron.

GARMENTS FOR SPORTS WEAR
Knitted capes Are Among the Most
Favored Numbers; Sweaters
in Tuxedo Models.

Knitted garments, apparently, are
being more and more strongly featured
in the new sports wear shoWlngs. INIT,
ted capeS, large affairs which Grape
into shaWls, are among the most Ia
vored numbers. Silk and wool mix
lures are popular, usually in tWo-tone
mixtures, about 60 per cent silk. Suits
of the darker mixtures are Douhd
about with bright colored bands. An
attractive dress is shown with fur col
Jared cape to match. The cape may
be tied at the waistline, giving smart
overskirt effect to the garment.
Knitted capes, large affairs which
drape into shawls, are hand mace.
Sweaters are shown in Tuxedo models,
or slipon with V or straight neck. SILK
numbers use bright colored str1plngss
while hand-knit wool ones are shown
with attached scarfs of many colors.
Knicker costumes continue to fea-
ture, but are being more in demand for
sports than for street wear. western
houses form the bulk of the order
business, it is said, many calls coming
for the separate knickers.
An effective original design golf cos
tune of soft material in tan with
brown overplaid is featured by a prom
inent spo&ts house. The suit consists
of sleeveless jumper, skirt, cape and
Knockers, the latter included if desired.
The skirt fastens at the side, and may
be unsnapped for added width If the
wearer desires it for tramping or golf.

CHAPTER VII
An Excursion and an Alarm.

An Excursion and an Alarm.
AS the only person who had discov-
cred anything on the island, I was now
invested with certain Importance.
Also, l had d playfellow and compan-
ion for future walks, In lieu of Cuth-
bert Vane, held down tight to the
thankless toll of treasure-hunting by
his stern taskmaster. But at the same
time / was provided with an annoying,
because unanswerable question which
had lodged at the back of my mind
like a crumb in the throat:
BY what strange chance had the
copra gatherer gone away and left
Crusoe on the island?
One morning, instead of starting di-
rectly after breakfast for the cave,
Mr.. Shaw busted himself in front of
the supply tent with certain explosives
which were TO be used in the digging
operations later.
Having inquired OF the Honorable
Cuthbert and found that for an hour
or two the boat would not be in
Fequisition, / permitted the beautiful
youth to understand that l would not
decline an invitation to be rowed about
the cove. Mr. Shaw had left his ma
rine glasses lying about, and / had
been doing some exploring with them.
Under the great cliffs on the north
shore of the bay / had seen an OBJ
ject that excited my curiosity. 1t
seemed to be the hull OF a small YES
sci, lying on the narrow strip of rocks
and sand under the cliff. Now, wreck
age anywhere fills me with sad and
romantic thoughts, but on the shore
of a desolate island even a barrel
hoop seems to suffer sea-change into
something rich and strange. / there
fore commanded the b. y. to row me
over to the spot where the derelict
lay.
1 lay back idly In the stern as the
boat SKINNED over the smooth water
beneath the strokes of my splendid
oarsman More than ever he looked
like the isfand god. Every day he
grew more brown and brawny, more
superb In his physical vigor.
The cliffs on the north shore of the
cove were considerably higher than
on the other side. The wreck lay
close in, driven high upon the mar
row shelf of rocks and sand at the
base of the sheer ascent. Sand had
heaped up around her hull and flung
itself across her deck like white
winding-sheet. Surprisingly, the yes
sci was very small one, a little
sloop, indeed, much like the fragile
pleasure-boats that cluster under the
Sausalito shore at home. The single
mast had been broken off short, and

people feel fine and well, and help

things in the summer, but I have my

was little BOY who said the sun was
not shining brightly enough for him.
He said he could hardly feel any
warmth from me at all.
s'He didn't realize how hard I was
shining until late that evening and,
and then he did.
'His face was just as red as red
could be. And the next day every
one said:
"'You were most certainly out in
the sun yesterday

get the people all sunburnt and I
freckle some of them.

make freckles and I'm not going to tell
anyone how I do it, for they might
want to know how.

I don't know. They might. So /
won't tell my little secret.
I'm the winter I never do such
things, and so I say that in the winter

matter if you play fey pranks once
i'll while. I am quite sure about
that"

the expedition and her contempt
for it's members, Virginia makes
the acquaintance of the Honorable

and lined with black satin. The con-
trast is almost as startling as black
and white, yet the grayish tone makes
them possible for winter wear.
The dress coat and the coat dress
are still important, and the resem-
blance between them is so great that
it is difficult to distinguish one from
the other. There are models designed
for coat purposes which look like
dresses; again there are models, dis
tinctly dresses, that have a most
coat-like appearance. Both types agree
on high-neck finishes and large
sleeves. Practically all have long
sleeves and low waistlines. If they
are of the chemise type they must

call it, developed in velvet or heavy
wooden material and shown with a
short circular cape and muff of fur.
The muff is crescent shape.

Profitable companionship.

Among the most curious and inter-
esting Of natural phenomena are those
nertaining to the mutual relationships
Of common organisms. Two plants,
two animals, or a plant and an ami
nal. may live together for their mu-
tueI benefit. Very often one Of the
partners gets food for the combination,
while the otheR receives protection.
This is the arrangement that subs.ats
between tropical plants and certain
snecies Of ants which live and feed
in their hollow stems, and in return
drive away other insects that would
do damage.

MORGAN TALKS or LOAN
 PROPOSED FOR GERMANY

New York. April 24.-J. p. Morgan today announced his acceptance or the allied reparations commissions invitation to become a member of the committee which will consider fiotation Of an inter national loan for Germany. He will san for Europe about the middle Of May.
 Mir. Morgan indicated that the pro- posed loan to Germany would be popu- far loan. to which the people Of the United States and other allied countries would be asked to subscribe. With good terms and on good security. he said. he believed such a loan could be placed.
 America of course. is very impor- tant in this foreign loan situation" he said 'The question l an asked is whther, if so on what terms. a German loan can be placed in this couitry.

SHIPPING BOARD ACTS
 TO MEET COMPETITION

Washington, April 24.-The shipping board as a result of the rate war" of the Larrport and Holt Steamship company to South America through the four shipping board vessels of the Munson line has not only met those rates but made a furthei reduction to s295 to Rio De Janeiro, S345 to Montevideo and $360 to Buenos Aires, Chairrpan Lasker announced today.
 The Lamport and. Holt rates were re- duced from S415 to $315 for Rio De Ja- neiro, from stT5 to $360 for Monteyi GO and from s490 to s370 for Buenos Aires, but these, Chairman Lasker said, were for their three inferior ships and dN not apply to their Vardyke, which, he said, corresponds to the shipping board yes sels, Pan-American, Southern Cross, Western World and American Legion.
 Lanlport and Holt also announced, eff fective July 1, a reduction in the round trip rate to $500 for Rio De Janeiro, and to meet this the shipping board has de cided upon a rate of s450, effective the same day.
 Chairman Lasker said the new Straight rates would become effective immediately
 The Lanport and Holt action, he added was taken without consulting the Munson line or the shipping board and could only be interpreted as "a declaration of war in the South American trade.
 This war, he continued may be the fore runner of similar ones in other ocean pas
 senger services in an effort to drive the American flag off the seas. But our hal is in the ring he declared, and We will stick as long as necessary to assurc
