Molly Mine.

Sandy. replacing the blanket on
Wyatt's face, examined his guns and
started climbing up to the big bowl

opening and proceeded cautiously.
To Sandy's right was perpendicu-
lar rock, to his left the curve of the
blocking bowlder with the skeleton
tree topping it, withered in the cleft
that had first nourished, then denied
1t nourishment. 1t cleaned silver

gazed his sharp ears caught the tiny
crack Of a brittle branch. Instantly
he dropped to all tours as q squirt or

bullet whined over him. to smack

Sandy did not move. He knew that,

previously paid big dividends.

SYNTHETIC FOOD ERA
Scientist Predicts Time Of Complete
 Iy Urbanixed Man

Now we know what's to become of the farmer. The word is passed along that J. B. s. Haldane, an English scientist, predicts chemical synthesis of foods within 120 years to degree that will rate agriculture a luxury, and mankind will be completely UT banized. A hard fate for the agri- culturist, and hard living for poets and artists if such there be in that distant day. And what of the gardens tiled by suburbanlties and com muters? III fares the day when no seed catalogue may proclaim mans kinship with the soil.
 Chemistry thou are afoot.
 Take thou what course thou wilt.
 But invitation to. choice is only empty fealty to courtesy when meals hold single course.

Gives An
 Old Lovers Recipe For Enduring Love

when you are young you must lay up money against the time when you will no longer be able to work and earn 1t.
 My wife and I understand this. We realized that love is like a flow CT. Neglected, choked out with other interests, intended, uncared for, it withers away and dies. But cherished and nursed, 1t sends down. deep root into life and blooms pereHnially and sends forth a perfume that sweetens tho world.
 "So we have consciously kept lovers. We have tried not to disillusion each other. We have kept ourselves as personally attractive as we could, and we have never felt that matrimony was a license to eat onions, and wear soiled clothing. Why, to this day don't know whether my wife's hair Is her own or not, and she Mas never seen me stopping around in my stock ing feet, with my suspenders down, and a three days stubble of beard on my face.
 We've kept our love alive by not taking too great liberties, with it. There are people who think that be- cause they love you it gives them a right to say things to you that they and to dispense with all the decencies of polite society. We have enever made this mistake. I have never said anything to my wife. that would not have said to her while I was court ing her. She has never nagged me.
 we have never opened each others letters or required each other to fur nish an alibi for every hedr we were apart. Disagreement of opinion, of course, we have had, but we have talked them out heart-to-heart in- stead Of getting angry, and saying insulting things to each other.
 "we have kept our love alive by tenderness. We haven t taken 1t for granted that each would know that the other still loved, in spite of ap- pearances, and silence. We have not been niggardly with the spoken word We have shown each other daily affection and appreciation, and so we have kept the love fires burning.
 "we are nearly so," the old lover added with twinkle in his eye, "and, believe me, if it wasn't for the rheu- matism, Juliet and I could back all lery."
