"I can stay here with Leila while you are gone" Edith answered.
 "That'll be all right then. but will you promise me one thing, to have that Lucy downstairs out of the house the day before l come back? I don't care what you do while I'm gone, but"
 wen do better than that" Edith said smiling. wen have her out of the house tomorrow if yon're willing to accept me as substitute"
 No, wait till I'm gone," Mrs. Dur kee conceded reasonably. 'There'll be enough 10 do before I go. My clothes are a sight. Katherine, how soon can 1 start ?"
 Tn a week." Katherine responded as equably as if she had not told us the same thing outside her patients hearing but few minutes before.
 "I'll have just about time to get ready" Mrs. Durkee commented happily. and the rest of us ex- changed congratulatory glances on the success of our little plot.

Letter from Leslie Prescott to Ruth

Ellington.
 Ruth, you are certainly a friend in time of trouble. Twice since I've been here l have been panicky for fear that would not make the right decision quickly. You know I'm rat her slow to make up my mind about things, and when l found that Alice thought l should give her the pearls back l didn't know what 10 do. Your telegram, however. confirmed my idea that it would be wrong for me to give them to her.
 AfterRard, when Jack sent me the telegram to have father draw on him I was again Up in the air. and your wire telling me 10 have father draw upon him again cleared ID the situa- ton.
 l had rather a hard time with dad. however. He wanted to know what ! wanted so much money for. He seemed to think that sG.O0O all at one time was more money than one woman should have. l told him that Jack wanted me 10 do something for him with the money. and that hg
 
 him for that amount. then dad could give it to me. Then he sub sided. but l could see him looking at me very nuearly-at least could feel him doing go. Perhaps it was my guilty c0uscience. although you know. Ruth. that I did not really teIl an untrufh. Jack did want me 10 pay his debt. ! am inst irtting him psy # to me instead of 10 father

loose white wrapper, heavily trimmed with dainty lace, that suited her to perfection.
 For 6 moment there was silence, then she burst out with a sort of chagrined triumph. There is one thing-she can't marry him; she is his brothers wife There would be an awful scandal"
 Monty drowned. Sometimes much as he loved ands admired his sister, she jared his nerves. "A man may marry his brother wife if he chooses" he said.
 She answered quickly:
 "Bnt David never would. He would never like the kind of woman Nigel liked. How can you suggest that he would ever take a fancy to common woman like Niscls wife?'
 'I suggest nothing. 1t was en- tirely your own idea"
 She made an impatient gesture.
 "Why does he want to find her? Something must have happened. If you don't tell mo, shall ask David.
 T can't prevent you" E.r
 Her mood changed suddenly. She slipped q coaxing. hand through his arm.
 "Mcnty, don't you love me any more? You've been so horrid to mo lately. Why is it?"
 He clipped sn affectionate arm round her.
 Silly child! Just because I won't tell you everything you want 10 know"
 She drew away from him. / Her eyes were angry again.
 Then you are keeping something back from mel'
 He hesitated finally he stopped, and brushed her soft cheek with his lips.
 T am only keeping it back for your good"
 My good! What rubbish you talk. How can it be for my good not to tell me things about Nigers stupid wife 2"
 There was subdued passion in her voice; she pushed him angrily away.
 Monty lost his temper; he let her go.
 Very well, then, if you insist, [ will tell you. She is not NigePs wife this girl--that is the whole truth.'
 CHAPTER l.. "A Woman Scorned." He was sorry as soon as he had spoken. The whiteness of her face touched him. He tried to take back his words or soften them; he began stumbling explanation, but she cut him short.
 "Is this true--reslly true? 2"
 He answered miserably that it was.
 She stood for a moment staring at him with blazing eyes, then she turned and left him; and he heard the shutting and locking of her door.
 He hesitated. not liking to leave her, and yet longing to get away; he listened, but everything was quiet. and he went softly to his own room.
 After all, it was just as well she should know now as later; the shock would only be made worse by delay.
 But behind her locked door Dora Fisher stood with clenched hands, and blue eyes blazing in her white face. Bitter jealousy set her heart on fire; not jealousy because she loved David, but jealousy to think that an- other woman. not 50 beautiful or fas. cinatins, should have succeeded where she herself had failed.

SNEAKING BACK

IAN Idaho woman who moved to
California, sat down and wrote the
[ following bit Of truthful poetry
while making arrangement to move
back to Idaho:
MY wisdom teeth 1 think I've cut,
I'm wiser day by day; no more for
me paradise two thousand miles
away; I'm sneaking back to Idaho,
you may jeer your hottest roast,
I'll take the worst that you can say
but not the Pacific coast I don I
like the flowers and earthquakes
mixed nor seas that sigh and moan.
When every night they bring a fog
that chills me to the bone; Pm
sneaking back to Idaho in hopes that
/ may find, the Paradise ! sought 50
far but surely left behind. Idaho,
gem of all the states, take back thy
weary child. I'll never roam again
among the and sharks bleak and
wild; I'm sneaking back to Idaho.
you may jeer me if you will, but IN
the roll of Prodigal, you bet I've had
my fill. You may boast about your
Golden Gate, shimmers of the sea,
the beauty of your orange groves,

back to Idaho, I'm tired Of husks
and chaff; ! wonder if some friend
for me will kill the fatted calf? /
do not seek to shun hard work. /
care not much for ease. But heaven
defend me from the pest-those
California fleas. I'm sneaking
back to Idaho, my heart and feet
are sore; just let me reach that fay-
orite spot, and l will roam no more. " /

rapetitiol to repeat the facts but III
those days of so-called farm pro
h,ems 1t is well to bring to public
attention an industry such as sugar
beet growing which assures the
farmer a guaranteed return on his
crop plus chance for increased
Droeit with a rise in the price of
sugar.
The production of sugar beets not
only brings a good money return but
so enriches the soil where they are
grown that other crop yields are
practically doubled if grown in ro-
tation with beets.
II is generally admitted that di-
yersified farming is the remedy fol
many of the price troubles of the
farmer today.
Growing beets primarily furnishes
the farmer a cash crop. prevents
sending hundreds of millions of dol.
lars abroad for foreign grown sugar,
increases expansion of beet sugar
factories with Increasing supplies of
iamestic sugar and lower prices. II
furnishes food for the cattle indus
try which in turn builds up dairying
and returns fertilizer to the soil.
No farm crop in the West can be
grown to greater advantage than
sugar beets on lands suitable for
their production.

FORGET PARTISAN POLITICS
IN TAX QUESTION

President Coolidge, in his Lincoln
Day New York speech on tax reduc-
tion said:
IF wehad a tax whereby on the
first working day the Government
took 5 per cent Of your wages, Oh
the second day 10 per cent, on the
third day 20 per cent, on the fourth
dav 80 per cent, on the fifth day 60
per cent, how many of you would
continue to work on the last two
DAYS of the week? 1t is the same
with capital. Surplus income viii

will refuse to take the risk incident
al to embarking in business. This
will raise the rate which established
business will have to pay for new
capital and result in marked in
crease in cost of living.
1.-THE high prices paid and low
prices received On the farm are d.
rectly due to our unsound method Of
taxation. hall illustrate by a
simple example: A farmer ships a
steer to Chicago. His tax, the tax
on the railroad Transporting the an
imal, and of the yards where the
animal is sold, go into the price OF
the animal to the packer. The pack
er's tax goes into the price Of the
hide to the New England shoe man
faceurer Tht manufactirer'B tax
goes into the price TO the whole
saIer, and the wholesalers tax goes
into the price to tie retailer, who in
turn adds his tax IN his price TO his
purchaser. SO it may be said that
if the farmer ultimately wears the
shoes he pays everybody's taxes
from the farm to his feet.
1T is essential, therefore, for
the good of the people as a whole
that we pay not so much attention
10 the tax paid directly by a certain
number Of the taxpayers, but We
must devote our efforts TO relieving
he tax paid indirectly by the whole
people"
The foregoing seems like good
common sense whether proposed BY
/ Republican or a Democratic pres
dent. If the tax question could be
as a business proposition
affecting all the people equally and
'emoved from the realm Of selfish
activity. it would be a
blessing to the American people.
How much longer will we have
o pay excessive taxes in order that
his national subject may be used as
! political football in Washington? (

ABSORB THE JAR
SAVE THE CAR

In commenting on the subject OF
good highways, the Manufacturers
Record in a recent issue says:
In 1917 when the war tax was
placed upon automobiles, motor
cycles, motor trucks and accessories,
the government collected from these
interests up to June 80, 1923, a
total of $3.50. O12.021.
Add to this amounts collected by
the various states in the form of gas
oline taxes and automobile license
fees and the total would probably
be well over a billion dollars. This
gives little idea of the money that
is being collected on automobiles
and which, to large extent, should
be applied TO permanent highway
construction and maintenance.
Also these figures emphasize the
responsibility that develops upon
public officials expeuding tax FUNDS
for highway construction. 4 great
deal of waste can be prevented II OF
flcials confine themselves 10 using
time-tested methods in paving WORK
When economy is essential in all
public expenditures, permanent hign-
ways that will give a maximum OF
service with little or no maintenance
cost and minimum expenditure
should be demanded.
In building railroad tracks and in
building automobiles time has
proven that a shock absorbing sub
stance such as a wooden tie or a
rubber tire are necessary TO save
railroad and automobile equipment
from detruction due to vibration and
constant traffic impact The same
principle holds true in regard to
road base and surface. 1t must be
of shock absorbing character
which will prevent crystal lization.
and disintegration due to the impac,
and jar OF rapidly moving traffic.
