KANSAS BEAVER SAVED
FROM EXTINCTION BY LAW
Rodents Multiply Rapidly During

PRATT, Kans. 4).-The beaver has
escaped the threat of extinction.
This dark denizen of wooded streams,
whose rich fur attracted Senator Cur
it's French ancestors to new trapping
grounds west of the Mississippi, be-
came SO scarce in Kansas few years
ago that it's complete disappearance
was believed to be near Killing OF a
beaver under any circumstances was
forbidden, but even the most hopeful
friends of the little brown animal were
not certain 1t could be saved.
Although rodent, the beaver be-
came sacred in the eyes of persons in
terested in the preservation of wild life.
Thus it multiplied beyond all expecta-
tions, and hs kind have become so nu-
merous again that protection OF game
regulations is waived occasionally so
property can be protected against de-
structive teeth.
But only by special permission Of the
State game warden, after he is con-
vinced a beavers death Is necessary

had admired her in that dress. She
put it on, noting again the change u
made in her appearance. She drew a
long cape over 1t, hiding its folds and
fullnesS, and then took out her car.
She drove to a small photographs
ers shop she had seen in her market
ing trips There she had number
of photographs made Of herself in her
peasant costume. She urged haste on
the proofs for the following day.
Eyes, Mrs. Ross the man agreed
pleasantly. Say, they told me around
here you couldn't speak English. you're
French, amt you?"
Yvonne bit her lip in evaporation.
Then she reflected there was little
chance CT Richards finding out from
this source that she had learned the
Language, s.,...s
"But my husband, you know. is
American"
The man nodded wisely as though
this explained everything. Ladies al
ways like to please their E1isters," he
agreed.
The next day Yvonne selected one
of the proofs 1t showed her with a
wistful droop to her soft. mouth.

insisted. And 1 wish q frame for 1t,

When the picture was finished and
framed Yvonne carried it to Richards
workroom. There she stood in on the
surroundings of glass cases and work
tools. Yvonne carried it down to her
husbands bedroom. There it seemed
equally lost. At last she took it back
to his desk in the laboratory. With a
final sigh she left it and went down.
stairs, locking the door behind her.
As she danced that night she tried
to think of what it would mean never
to return to the theater Her inlagi-
nation failed her. This, this. she must
have. Suppose she just disappeared,
spared Richard the pain of confess
sion, vanished from him, leaving only
the photograph in its silver frame on
his desk. Would he think of her?
Would he miss her?
She went home with her problem
still troubling her. She could not give
up her husband. She could not give
up her art. She could not have both.
She must make her choice. The
sacrifice of either seemed too great
to be born.
To give up Richard would enrich
her art. as suffering always enriches
art. To give up her art meant bury
ing part of her life that had be-
come necessary to her. And there were
SO few days left to decide.
IF Richard had showed me in one
letter that he missed me, how easy it
would be-" she thought. She. took the
slight, thin bundle of letters, half a
dozen in all, and read them again. He
was always. her affectionate husband"
Nothing more.
"He doesn't care" she told herself.
He never has cared. Why should I
spend my life, servant to him
But in her heart her choice was
made.

Greenbacks Quickly Worn Out.

The life of a dollar bill is much
shorter than it was a few years ago,
and the difference is to said to be due
to its frequent passage through the
hands of the individuals at the roadside
filling station. This was determined by
Government officials by circulating so
81 bills, with a request attached that
each spender indorse on the slip what
he spent it for. and that the person
holding the bill after the tenth in
dorsement should return it to the
American Motorists Association head
quarters at Washington. The so bills
were circulated in 10 cities with the re-
suits that out of SO bills returned con-
tanning 371 Endorsements, SO of the in
dorsementS indicated that the bill had
been spent by motoriSt for gas or oil.
The size Of the new bills about to be
issued win tend to lengthen their life
and also the fact that the paper used
will be oil proof to certain extent.

simplifed Weddings in China.

The wedding of the Chinese couple
was formerly a very elaborate affair,
consisting Of six rites which covered al
most as many days, and part of the
ceremony was the transportation Of the
bride to her future home in a flower
decked sedan. This vehicle was a gor-
geous affair, but recently it has been
displaced by compromise in the shape
of a glorifled automobile. This is not
quite so resplendent as the old-tine
sedan, but it answers all purposes.
Many of the features of the six-day
wedding retained by the ceremony have
recently been abbreviated. 1t is quite
common for the wedding party to stop
in at q movie show on their way to the
brides future home. 1t Is also not un.

INTERARCHING THEORY
USED IN CITRUS GROVES
Process Is Said to Double Life Of
Tree by Putting It on New
Foundation.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. Cp).-Interarch-
ing, a new theory in tree surgery. Is
taking prominent part in the care of
citrus groves. 1t is said to double the
life of the tree by putting il on a new
foundation and to be a great aid in
overcoming root-rot, which formerly ex-
acted heavy toll.
The process is declared to be as sim
pie as grating and budding. The bark
of the tree is split similar to the slit
used in grating. One end Of the seed
ling bough is fastened into the groove
with a tack after the root end has been
buried in the ground. The tree skin
then is fastened around the new jcint
and the root end watered until it
spreads sufficiently to absorb moisture
from the earth
In a short time the tree has an en-
tirely new set of roots and after few
years the tree trunk will grow entirely
around its new support.
