CHAPTER II

Muriel Benham was savagely
woman. She conceived woman as
species as distinct from males as flora
Is distinct from fauna. The acquisi-
ton by women of the right to vote had
been the occasion for mourning, as
Peter found out before Mrs. Austin
Benham had beamed through two
meals, first upon her guest and then
upon her lovely daughter.
The widow Of Austin, as DeWolfe
discovered after a week of agreeable
neglect Of the calendar, was true
beamer. She did not beam with the
insincere beam of affectation, but with
the beam of an expansive nature ooz-
ing good will and demonstrativeness
through the crevices it could find in
the walls of a life which was like a
vessel of conventionality, containing
according to all the traditions of her
husbands family, liquor of precious
quality, not to be spent freely. She
believed in new things and in a new
world, but she beamed upon Muriel
not because she agreed with her but
because, not daring to voice an opin-
ion, she could still love her daughter
for being so healthy and so irreproach-
able.

If experiments at present in prog
ress prove satisfactory, in time to
come steam boilers will not be used
to work big power plants-mercury or
sulphur vapors will be employed in
stead.
The idea is that such vapors involve
much higher temperatures than even
superheated steam, and the higher
the temperature, of course, the great
er the power produced.
The hot vapors, after driving tur-
sbine, will be condensed, yielding their
heat to water, thus generating steam
for use in its turn.
This century has been a wonderful
one for the chemical industry.
Even new materials have been pro
duced, writes Mr. Harrison e. Howe
in "These Eventful Years" The de-
mand for silk at low price has
brought about the production of arti-
fetal silk The fiber looks like silk,
and answers the purpose of silk; yet
it is made from wood pulp or even
cotton.
In the plant worlc science is i'm
proving on nature. On sugar cane
plantations it has been found that a
certain kind of paper, when spread
over the rows, discourages weeds and
thus minimizes hoeing.

Cure for Blisters

Blisters, caused by the shoe rubbing
the foot, develop into real painful
ulcer il they are not properly treated.
Mr.. Mann of Anytown learned.
If pricked, some disinfectant should
be applied Immediately. The best way
to let the water out is to pass bit
of vaseline thread through the blister
When the blister is on the sole OF
the foot where the skin is thick, take
fine white thread and grease it well
with borated or pure vaseline.
Thread coarse needle and pass it
through the blister from one end to the
other. Cut the thread on each side
and cover the spot with bit of vase
line Next day draw the thread out
The blister will be gone.
Blisters on the hand may be pricked
with a needle and then covered with
a layer of cOllodion one ounce, castor
oil eight grains; soft turpentine eight
grains. Two or three coats are re-
Quired.

Not All IN America

The average BritOn who knows any
thing about America never fails to
think that some American town names
like Oshkosh and Yuba Dam are the
funniest things that ever happened.
However, they forget the queer
town names in their. own tight little
island.
For instance, there is a Nasty in
Herefordshire and Mucking in Els
sex. Norfolk boasts of Great Snor-
ing.
In Lincolnshire one finds Swineshead
Cowbit, and Dripping Gore in Kent.
Yorkshire also has match for Yuba
Dam.
It has Dam Flask. Then there are
other odd ones like Helious Bump
stead, Toller Porcorum, Heck, Over
WALTON and Neither Wallop, Barton
in-the-Beans and Lynesack-and-Softly.

Peter smiled and waved his hand.
He turned the corner Of the wall and
stepped into the cobbled street where
the endless wagons Of some French
artillery maneuver were rumbling
deeper into the ruts of War worn in
the ancient stones
Only at nine that evening did he
hear more. Benham called him by the
service wire Of the signal corps.

the Englishman, lying glibly "Good

mother was IRISH"
"Send me that letter to your family,

Boulogne," said Peter calmly after a
moment in which Benham wondered
whether the line had been cut off. I'm
off for England tomorrow"
He put his cigarette down and al
lowed 1t to burn the edge of the table.

Usually taciturn and Quiescent,

ing no little amount Of golfing in
formation When the former pub
lie links champ, and last year win
ner of the Columbia Country Club
invitation tournament, becomes q
fount Of news, something has made
him FESTIVE. Yes, he had just been
beaten, when he thought before
the match started that he would
be returned with the hide of his
enemy.
C. Aslmead Fuller, OF the Chevy
Chase Club, was mostly concerned
with what George had to say. Mr..
Fuller, for the information Of the
uniformed, was the one who had
administered that pasting on the
brownish brow of the talker.
"Whew, Fuller certainly got hot
this day." proclaimed the broad.
caster. ST had him one down at
the turn, and then he up and start
ed playing mean golf. All he did
was make couple OF brides in a
row, and come back in one under
par. And, If you are further in
terested, he made par or better on
every one OF the nine home-bound
holes"
Fuller is a steady golfer. He is
quiet; with an ideal temperament
for golf. Broad shoulders, sturdy
legs, ana well developed chest are
his.
But Fuller has one fault that

dian Spring tournament. He tires
under the strain OF playing thirty
six holes In a day, and that he will
have to do to win.
Roland Mackenzie, in the semi
finals paired against Fuller, is
younger, possibly more powerful.
He Is able to better stand the ire
mendous exertion. The two. have
met three times, and though Fuller
has won in each meeting, his mar
gin of victory has been steadily de-
creasing. If Roland RECEIVERS his
stability, Fuller will have wicked
job on his hands.
In the lower bracket, Walter r.

try Club for the invitation tourna-
