So 1t was that toward the end Of

The lawyer smiled. I'm sorry that
you don't want to meet him. He hap

In fact, he's in the reception room

Lucy. "You left some interesting

They peered out of the open win
dow. In a moment, however, Gale
made out slow-pacing dark form on
the path. Farther down there was
another. No particular keenness was
required to see in these forms a SEN

Thorne she flew nolselessly down the
stairway to him. He caught her In
his arms. Then she spoke softly, bro

Thorne led the girl to the center ef

stood

She swept the mantilla back over
her head disclosing lovely face,
strange and striking to Gale in its
pride and fire, its intensity.

"Dick, think. think With Mercedes
also It was love at first sight. My
plan Is TO marry her and get her far
ther to the interior, away from the
border. II may not be easy. She's
watched. SO am I. Rojas must have

day his gang OF cutthroat rebels ar
rived, and today he came. When /
learned that, took my chance and
left camp; hunted up priest. He
promised to come here. It's time he's
due. But I'm afraid he'll be stopped.
You see. we're over the line"
"Are we in Mexican territory now?"
queried Gale, sharply.
II guess yes, old boy. That's what
have Casita in their hands. If Mer-
cedes is really watched-lf her iden-
tity IL known, which am sure Is the
case-we couldn't get far from this
house before I'd be knitted and she
seized"
Good heavens Thorne, can that
sort of thing happen less than

"It can happen, and don't you forget

shown a penchant for girls Of the bet

Thorne wiped the perspiration from
his pale face and bent a dark gaze
out Of the window before he resumed
his talk.
Consider what the position OF Mer-
cedes really Is. Rojas can turn all the
hidden underground influences to his
ends. Unless / thwart him he'll get

months had passed out Of his being.
On the instant he could not speak,

appeal all vanishing In a smile OF
passionate gratefulness.

condensers are placed across both pri-

vent the windings from interfering

Troublesome Weeds Are
Difficult to Eradicate

Sour docks and burdocks are among
our most troublesome weeds, and very
hard to eradicate after once they have
gotten foothold. A stitch in time
certainly saves nine with these two
weeds, but 1t is important that this
stitch be good one. The one best
implement with which to cut these
weeds is good sharp spade. They
must be cut well below the sprouting
line on the roots or they are up again
with the next few days.
While the corn is still small you
should spade out all those in the corn
field. Those along the fences must be
cut before they go to seed, else the
soil will again become infested with
them and they will be perpetuated.
These docks being cut now could much
more easily have been destroyed sea-
son before last while still in the seed
flower.

Rats Prefer a Balanced
Ration to Poisoned Bait

American rats are finicky.> Rat
poisoning campaigns often fail be-
cause the house owner does not give
his intended victims a sufficient va
riety of edibles," says Otis Wade, ro-
dent control specialist in the Kansas
agricultural college. "a starved rat
will eat anything, from strip of lead
pipe to an old boot, but a well-fed
Kansas rodent is more particular"
Wade declares.
Wade divides rat bait into three
classes-meat foods, vegetable foods,
and cereals.
In mixing bats the successful pois-
oner selects food from each of the
three classes and mixes 1t with bari
um carbonate, tasteless and odor-
less poisoning agent, in the proper
ton of one part poison to four parts
food. He then places teaspoonful
of each variety on strip of paper so
that the rat, travelling along his run
way, finds a three-course dinner laid
for him. Usually one of the courses
appeals to his taste and the rat popu-
latiOn is reduced by one.

Radio Sure to Work
Out Its Own DESTINY

A practical joker once suggested
as a subject for debate "The Future
of Electricity" AS the subject was to
be considered by a society of engi-
neers, they at once smelled the pro-
verbal mouse and declined to be led
into talking of something so vast and
so unlimited in possibilities that no
sane man would attempt to do it JUS
tice.
A review of the accomplishments
of radio the past years and of the
prophecies of experts for it's future,
but causes one to ponder upon the in
adequacy of any possible foretelling
of what this great gift of nature is
to accomplish. We can but gasp and
wonder.
In view of the fact that radio has
always been with us, excepting for
the invention of some apparatus of
importance small in comparison with
the natural elements used, who can
answer the question, what of the
futureP Radio for the transmission
of power has such tremendous posi-
bilities within Its scope that the most
confirmed dreamer and the scientist
of the widest vision can only guess In
feeble way.
Radio, now that it has been recog-
nized in the abstract, will work out
its own destiny Such a force once
started at work is not to be stopped,
but will go on and on, along it's
destined course. We can only hope
that that course will run along peace
full channels and for the benefit of the
greatest number of the worlds people.
