Cardenas, who operates a meat market
in Matamoros, and is cousin to the
Cardenas brothers who operate mar
kets in Brownsville. He is no kin to

ALTERATIONS IN
 FOREST POLICY.
 ARE EANNOUNCED
SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE LlBERALlZES ALASKA TIM
 BIER CONTRACT POLICY

Two alterations in Forest Service regulations governing contracts fol sales of large quantities of timber from national forests in Alaska have just been approved by the Secretary of Agriculture, according to tele- graphic advices received on Christ mas Day by Dist. Forester c. H. Flory, Juneau. Both are designed to liberaliZe contracts and make in- Vestments in Alaska timber indus tries more attractive to large scale investors.
 In effect the first change in- creases the maximum sale for pulp and paper manufacturing purposes from two billion board feet to three billion, and the second provides no reappraisal of stumpage prices shall be made for a period of 10 years after beginning of actual opera tions instead of the five year period here tofore required under the contract offered
 The new regulations state "the existing policy of operating a 3O- year contract subject to a maximum of two billion board feet is modi fled by raising this maximum to three billion board feet in order to place under contract a sufficient quantity of timber sufficient for

 The changes were made on the recommendations of Mir. Flory who took up the matter with U. s. For ester Greeley last August in an official communication. He pres- ented the subject in person to the Forester at Denver last month at the Annual Conference of District Foresters, securing this approval. The matters was placed before the Secretary of Agriculture several days ago, following Col. Greeley's

There was tragic story told the
other day about an unfortunate girl
who had an idea she could supply In.

In the world.
She happened to be on a house party
where one Of the men seemed to be
very anxious to learn all about golf.
At least from his conversation one
would Judge that he knew nothing OF
the game.
So when he stepped out on the
green to try a few, practice strokes.
Miss Information was right behind
him, telling him in q very impressive
fashion that he was all wrong.
And she proceeded to show him just
how the great game should be played.

on each point.
Two hours later a kind friend told

than b, the famous golfer. Miss
Information retired from public life
for some time after that, and I've no
doubt the rest did her good. She had
plenty of time to reflect on her past
life, and to realize the danger OF
knowing too much about any given
subject

man she's trying to impress-and is

Well, that's one very important rae

CHAPTER XI.
The Start.

It wasn't until Fay was seated IN
chair car OF the Berkshire Limited
that she realized how impossible II
would be to draw back now. She had
actually started on her adventure.
She was no longer Fay Carson. but
Mrs. Fay Churchill. and certainly she
did not look like the same person.
From her head to her feet she was
perfectly dressed. Even her gloves
with their blue stitching had a smart
rakish look. and her face. under the
tiny hat with its arrow Of marcasite
wore a look Of poised self assurance
Fay had that satisfied feeling that
always comes with the knowledge Of
being we'll groomed. 1t enabled her
to look around the car interestedly,
but without any feeling of inadequency
as her eyes rested upon other well
dressed women. She knew quite well
that other women might be more ex-
pensively dressed. but not with any
better taste.
That girl at the other end of the
car. for instance. She was well
dressed. her clothes looked expensive,
but they were badly chosen. Her
dress OF printed crepe was too elabo-
rate for a train trip. her satin sandals
with paper thin soles would have
looked better in the ballroom. She
wore white KID gloves and large
black hat trimmed heavily with flow.

did not have that air of smart groom

tied down. There was a holiday at
mosphere about every one who en-
tered. Most OF the faces were smiling.
Looking about her. Fay wondered II
any of these people were destined for
Shadow Valley and the Poppy Inn.
II was a pleasant thought, and as the
train started she began to pick out the
people in the car that she would like
to know.
That blond man several seats away
from her looked interesting. He wore
a gray suit and besides him propped
against the window was a golf bag
filled with clubs. AS Fay studied him

now it has been possible to get almost

wanted to embellish frocks with bands

Now there is this new imitation fur to
be bought by the yard. But you would
never know it was imitation until you
drew near enough to see that the back
ing of the fur was of woven material.
OF course, it is much easier to apply
and lends itself to the manipulation OF

A New Tyne of Rug.

Every once in a while world travel
ers and professional importers are
Every once in while world travel
finding and bringing us something
new from among the homely products
of distant lands. The Numddh rug,
from Northern India, is one of the
latest Of these finds.
But do not be fearful that the Num-
dab is just one more Oriental rug"
to add TO Your perplexity in telling
them all apart.
Numdah rugs are something entirely
different. In the first place. they are
telted, instead of woven. But made by
the natives from the long, coarse hair
of the Angora goat, these rugs do not
look like anything we have ever
seen before. Although made up on a
one-tone background of felted hair, the
rugs are all Respondent with color, the
result of hand embroidery. This en-
broidery is done clear through the felt,
50 it not only makes the individual
rugs beautifully patterned. but adds
immeasureably to their wearing
quality.
In fact. one OF Tie best tests of a
hlgh-quality Numdah rug is the
amount of embroidery on it. The
thickness of the rug is another test,
and especially the evenness of the
feiting.
In making the Numdah rugs the
kaShmir people mat the goat hair
together by lahorious handpounding
on the rocks. Naturally, it is very
difficult, with such crude methods, to
get an even telling. 50 the ordinary
rugs, when held up TO the light. Will
show many places that are thinner
than others. But all the better grades
are very evenly matted. and marvel

way they have been put together.
You will like Numdahs. whether
YOU can use them or not, because the
color combinations are so varied and
