ample excitement; and in the eve
ming we nursed our sunburn and
talked of the fishing yet to be done.
Elsa seemed downcast at the rail
that evening as she and I watched
the brief, fiery sunset which preced-
ed the dusk. Dwight and Margaret
were below; Rogers was in his state
room doctoring blistered nose, and
Berta had been set ashore. Our
fishing plans had been changed aft
er dinner. Margaret had decided to
invite Berta and Sam, and any of
the others who could come aboard,
for days cruise up the coast.
Margaret in the early evening had
sent over into town for the two youth
full mariachis, Felipe and Pancho,
to come out and play for us, which
they obligingly did for a couple of
hours or so on the after deck But
Elsa was restless; this was not Reed
Barton's playing and singing in the
patio by moonlight which had stirred
something in her heart; it was mere
ly Mexican music without meaning.
She got up and went below before
the boys had finished, leaning over
to whisper in my ear before she left
me:
did you ever feel like a barome-
ter, Barry? A change is coming"
l slept on her remark and could
make nothing of it, and after break
fast as we stood again at the rail
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1943-10-08

looking off over the sparkling water
of the bay which was emerging from
a light fog, I asked:
Were you being prophetic last
night, Elsa? About change COM
ing?"
Barry, you're too profound for
me this morning. Oh, look The
launch is coming from shore"
Nosing through drifting wisps of
fog was the sharp prov of the
launch. Elsa frightened amazingly,
her face was keenly alert as she
endeavored to identify its passen-
gers. Interest after moment sud-
denly went out of her and she turned
away. I saw Sam Chatfeld in the
launch, and Berta; and side by side
the fat figure of Chesebro and Rum
BILE, the latter dressed in his in
credible coat and huge black SOM
brero, as congenial as a pair of dis
gruntled CLANS.
Elsa kissed her fatksr and Rugged
Berta's small round person to her
self ecstatically, and stretched a
hand out to Chesebro in greeting.
Didn't you bring Reed Barton
with you, jimmy" she asked with
a tone of petulance. Chesebro
glanced sharply at her.
Barton hasn't got back from the
mine. Probably won't until later on
today"
But we can't go cruising without
him."
Don't forget, Elsa" Chesebro
chided her almost as if she were a
child, that Reed Barton is en-
ployed; he's got job to do. Work
comes before social diversions"
"You always have such complete
and satisfactory explanations, Jim
N.Y." returned Elsa. Chesebro
looked closely at her to see what lay
behind the remark, and then strobe
down the deck to greet Dwight and
Margaret who were emerging from
the companionway.
"Your Mexico always delights me,
sonora" l said to Berta, as the
crowd at the ladder began to break
up. George Rumble moved away
with Elsa. Huntoon Rogers had
come up from below and was talking
with Sam Chatfield.
Berta's dark eyes lighted up with
pleasure; her white teeth flashed me
a smile and she leaned bare brown
arm upon the rail.
"That's because you know Mexico
and understand it. Senior Madison"
At that moment down the deck
where Elsa and George Rumble
were bent heads together over Sec
ton of the Sunday paper he had
brought on board, there came Elsa's
voice so charged with emotion that
it penetrated my heart like knife.
"Oh-George!" she exclaimed.
"What's wrong with that, baby?"
returned Rumble matter-of-factly.

minute he got home, and all this
could not have happened. Please
advise me and save me from de-
spair."
Poor little 18-year-old, you have
certainly made sad mess of your
life so far But 10 is not very old,
in fact, twice 10 is not very old, and
you have time ahead to grow wiser
and build up to happiness and self
respect again out of this wreckage.
The first consideration now is your
baby, and if you don't realize that
today I can assure you that you will
realize it in March, when you have
the little creature in your arms.
Since Louis is the father, and Louis
loves you, the best first step is to
write Louis the truth. That you met
Jack, liked Jack, liked him even
to the point of considering marrying
him, and that it was under that par
ticular emotional stress that you
wrote Louis to ask divorce.
Write Husband About Plans.
Go on to say that everything is
changed now. A new responsibility
"a new prospect has come. There
is going to be child. And for that
child's sake you are never going to
see Jack again, you are going to
live quietly, planning for the baby
in the spring, and waiting for Louis
to come home. Say that you are
sorry, and hope he will destroy your
letter and forget it; remind him that
you are very young, and confused by
the exciting conditions in which you
are living in war time.
He will write you forgivingly, I'm
sure. If you can possibly 60 to his
parents early in the new year, l
would do so. And if you do go to the
farm, and it sounds a comfortable
place, make them love you; set
yourself to winning them, and to be-
ing a good wife and mother.
AS for loving Jack; you are no
more sure of that than you we're of
loving Louis only few months ago.
At Is you are hardly sure of any
emotional reaction, let alone two
love affairs. You have plunged much
too young into the realities of life,
and life revenges itself upon you by
presenting you with its most
poignant reality; that of mother
hood. Nothing matters now except
that you fit yourself to meet this
challenge as worthily, cheerfully,
normally as you can. You are max
ing high salary, put aside some
thing every week for your expenses
when the baby comes: look about
you for some place where you can
board, and perhaps board the baby,
too, and go on working afterward.
Girl Must Grow Up.
If Louis writes you coldly, indig-
nant at your vaccilations, as well
he may, face that situation, too. In
other words, try to grow up and be
a woman, rather than a bewildered
child stumbling from one mistake
to another. Don't say anything more
about a divorce, should Louis an
grily agree to one. Instead write
him cheerful letters about yourself,
about his parents and his home, and
eventually about the baby, and let
all serious decisions wait until he
comes home again.

1913

The Kennewick Courier for Aug
1, 1913 tells us that-This week
two of Kennewick's business hous-
es have changed owners. The
firm of T. c. Cobb and Co. was
transferred today to j. w. Sherk
& Co., the new firm taking charge
of affairs of the store tomorrow.
Corder's candy store and bakery
now belongs to E. A. Pincknew.
That - Wheat that runs well
around the rs bushel mark is now
being harvested in the Horse
Heaven hills back of the Kenne-
wick valley. The total yield, it is
estimated, will not amount to
more than $4,000 sacks this year
and practically all will be brought
to this place as the crop from XII
ona to well above Prosser is an
entire failure. Last year there
were some IS to 10000 sacks brot
to Kennewick alone.
That-Plans are being made to
bring talking movies to Kennewick
as an attraction for the Grape
Carnival.
That-There is more than idle
conjecture in the report that a
Spokane man will put a modern
freight. and passenger boat on the
run between Kennewick, Pasco
and the up river points is evil
denced by a letter from J. w.
Green stating that he expects to
have a boat in operation by the
first of September.

Marseille Was an Old but
Active Mediterranean Port

Marseille, Mediterranean city Of
100000 held in a state of siege by
the Nazis to enforce evacuation Of
the port district, was normally the
busiest of all French ports and the
country's. chief gateway to the
Orient.
The old port section, with its mar
row, winding streets, turnble-down
houses, Apache hangouts, and sailor
taverns, Is the core of the modern
city. Beyond the old town has de-
veloped the Marseille Of broad, busy.
streets. fashionable shops, luxurious
cafes, and residential neighbor-
hoods. .. ~-~ .- ~.
3 Nature blessed Marseille with a
deep harbor. But use Of 1t was ham
dicapped by hills almost isolating the
city from the continent. Access was
provided by tunnels. Canal barges
as well as trains come and 60
through underground tubes. High
ways were built as alternate routes.
Completion of the Suez canal in
1869 made Marseille the premier
port for cargoes to and from India
and the Far East. The city came to
regard itself as the promotional CEN
ter of Frances sea-borne commerce
with eastern Mediterranean coun-
tries and the African colonies. As
trade increased, the port outgrew its
harbor. A policy Of ceaseless i'm
provement was established. Addi-
tons include three miles of break
waters, Is miles of quays.

Removes Stains

Wartime restrictions on various
chemicals narrow the choice Of q
stain remover, but sodium perborate,
one Of the best, is still available at
drug stores at relatively small cost.
Textile chemists Of the department
Of agriculture report that it Is par
ticularly useful for white woolens. It
leaves them soft and fluffy. Some
ink and metal stains, iron rust. dyes
and running colors do not respond.
But many other stains yield to
sponging with solution Of four table,
spoons Of sodium perborate in a pint
Of lukewarm water. The mixture
must be used quickly or it loses
strength. The sooner stain is treat
ed after it occurs, the better the
chance Of complete removal. Thor
ough rinsing with water is necessary
after stains have been removed.
