packing guns?"
Nearly everybody. Hadn't
you heard? Ask your body
guard there. It's the new
fashion, Nick. Today I rode
over to that dam of yours and
I noticed beneath the shirts of
half those hard.working laborers
something bulging that might
have been fountain pens, but
probably weren't"
Showdown
Sari nodded impatiently. IF
the workers are going armed
it's because the ranchers have
been intimidating them"
That's a laugh"
The mans face flushed be-
meath the taunt, but his smile
remained unruffled, and push.
ing back the automatic, he
seated himself on the table di.
rectly across from Lowell.
II just learned that you and
Bull here mixed it up a trifle
this morning. That was his
fault. He had no damned
business coming into your ranch
house, want to set it straight
first of all"
Dick smiled family. Don't
mention it." His eyes in quiet
amusement turned toward Pablo.
I'VE had a very pleasant time
didn't we? Fact is. I'm hop
ing you'll come again some
day" Then to Sari, But my
keen intuition tells me some
thing else is on your mind"
Sari leaned forward. THE
night you left Washington I
happened to glance at a letter
in the drawer Of my desk. A
thumbprint in the corner in.
terested me. It wasn't mine,
and don't know of anyone
who ever saw that letter except
the man who sent it. So I'm
wondering whether that thumb
print happened to be yours"
For a time Dick gazed alb
sently into space. He seemed
to reflect. Il wonder if by any
chance it could have been a
letter written by Bruce?"
1T was"
"Then the thumbprint was
mine"
How did you happen to see
that letter."
1T lay in the drawer of your
desk"
That drawer was closed"
WAS it? Then I must have
opened it,"
What FORE"
Angered by the cold insistence
OF the mans voice, Dick flung
back at him, ITO see what was
inside. Now what in hell's the
next question:"
Undercurrents
With a visible effort Sari's
voice regained something of it's
u1banity. mo more questions.
But I want to tell you some
thing that may save trouble
later on. That letter was from
your brother, written a long time
ago. He had made a survey and
it seemed to him that the diff
ficulties of building the ditch
were insurmountable."
How long ago?"
Several months"
Dick made no answer, and
rapidly Sari went on. II tell
you this because I assume you're
here as your fathers representa-
tive-to help, not to hinder. I've
had enough hindrances," he
burst out. Your good friend
Barnes is one of them. If that
damned yellow journal of his
prints anything of this there'll
be even more friction and trou-
BILE than we're having now.
Your father and have tried to
make Barnes see the light, but
no week goes by without some
attack on me or my work. That
makes it inconvenient for me,
but if he doesn't stop I'll make
it more than inconvenient for
Will Barnes. It might be a
friendly act for you to give him
a tip"
What tip?"
Tell him to watch his step"
With a long finger Sari en-
phasized every syllable. There
was no mistaking the mans in
tent.

Contract Bridge

when South goes to two hearts and
West passes, East should not get
ambitious and go to two no trump
The opponents are vulnerable nd
if East sets them, as he undoubt-
edly will because all of the nigh
card strength has not been disclosed
as it would have been had he
doubled, he is bound to have good
score.
West opens the nine of spades
East caShes the king and ace OF
spades and continues with the jack
Of spades which South ruffs.
Naturally South is DESTROYS of
getting into the dummy. so he leads
the jack of clubs, West covers with
the queen and as a small card is
played from dummy, West holds
the trick.
West continues right on with the
clubs. Again the declarer ducks in
dummy, but East wins the trick
with the ten and swings the ace
of clubs, which South trumps.
South still must lose two heart
tricks and his contract is defeated
ESQ points.
If East had attempted to play
the hand at two no trump, he would
have been down two tricks.

Less Known
Vegetables
Suggested
Chinese Cabbage Among
Those Suitable for
Varying Diet.
BY SISTER MARY

AS every woman knows, variety at
the dinner table adds much to the
spice of life. Change in the family
menus means keeper enjoyment of
meals, better digestion and better
health.
When Variety can be accom-
pliShed without extra cost Of money,
the marketer is more than justified
in adventuring among unfamiliar
vegetables. During the last few
years many vegetables have been
introduced into this country from
foreign lands and they are all we'll
worth recognition and study.
Chinese cabbage is one Of those
vegetables which comes to us from
the Orient and is quite superior
to the ordinary variety with which
we are familiar. 1t is being grown
extensively in this country now and
is available in all city markets.
- Delicate in Flavor
Pe-tsai, as Chinese cabbage is
called, is more delicate in texture
and flavor than the common gar
den product. It's shap, too, is I'M
like our native cabbage, for instead
of being round and fiat, the Pe-tsai
is tall and urn-like in shape.
The heart of the head is almost
cylindrical, the outer leaves bending
over at the top This heart is creamy
white and deliciously tender, like the
finest celery.
Cut in slender fingers, the heart
of the Pe-tsai is inviting when eaten
raw, like celery. The whole head.
of course, can be shredded and
served with French dressing as a
salad. Or it can be cooked, just as
other cabbages are cooked.
Rich in Food Value
Perhaps one of the most endear-
ing qualities of this Chinese cab
bage is its lack of odor while cook
ing! 1t should be cooked in a small
quantity of water and for a short
length of time.
The heads can be cut in slices
crosswise, in QUARTERS or eighths
lengthwise, or finely shredded. 1t
is served with any seasoning that is
used with ordinary cabbage.
All the vitamin and mineral con-
tent that is so valuable in our ma
tive cabbage is present in the Chi
neSe variety.
A delectable salad is made with
shredded Chinese cabbage and diced
apple nodded in a lime jelly. Gar
nish mold with sliced stuffed olives.
Cabbage Ming Toy is a nourish-
ing and appetizing dish with an orr
entail flavor.
