z+~ A new invention by q Wrangell man, which ir is claimed will undoubt- edly become a signal success among prospectors, is a hand-powef pros pect4ng shovel for prospecting river and creek beds and potholes. The in ventor is George H. Edson, and his invention is the result of his own ex- perience as "a prospector, which brought him to the realization of the need of some small, lightweight de- vice which would enable the pros pector to scoop up dirt or sand from the bed of a creek and bring 1t to the top without losing all or the greater portion thereof. The Edson device has strong. cover which can be closed down tightly over the 'scooper when the prospector is ready to lift his shovel. Whatever$ dirt or sand there is in the scoop can be brought to the top with no loss whatever. The device is light and is no extra burden to the prospector in his ramblings up and down the creeks. :.

to Reddy that he could smell the scent of two grouse. but he never could be quite sure. However, he didn't waste any time about it. He just hurried forward. But he was very careful about every step. He didn't step on any little twig that would snap. He didn't rustic a dry leaf. He moved like a shadow. I mean by that he moved, as silently as shadow. And he didn't move so fast but that his eyes took note of everything in front of him and on both sides. His nose was to the ground most of the time. but every moment or two he lifted it and tested the Merry Little Breezes. Every few steps he stopped and stood like a little red statue, while he listened. Right down in his heart he hoped that he might find MT. Grouse of his guard and so get both Mir. Grouse and Mrs. Grouse. And all the time Reddy's wonderful nose told him that he was getting nearer and nearer to MT. Grouse, which meant, of course. to Mrs. Grouse too.

 "No, I never fasten that door," she said. But you can bet the last cookie in the jar that I see those other two doors have their bolts slipped tight"
 She pointed to the door leading into the public hall and to another at the very end of the room next the bathroom, which I remembered vaguely led to little dead-end cor ridor.
 That Mysterious Door
 Suddenly the memory came back to me. The door was exactly oppo- site and only few feet from a dis used old door which once had opened upon the servants staircase, in use when the building was a millionaire's mansion. We had transformed that old staircase into private connec- tion between the second and third floors but the section of 1t leading from the third to the fourth floor was, of course, not our affair at all and we have not tC uched it.

 Over her face spread an expression of utter panic.

 I looked at her In astonishment. But why not, Nary" I asked.
