she betrayed j no sign of mirth her head was drop- ped she had covered her face with her spread fingers it might go as quick as it came mrs ohara suggested tentatively it might chris agreed and then

our misery of scottie i knew nothing and oeeame very anxious as to his fate everything must end sometime toward nightfall we came in sight of a rift in the mountains where the sheer cliffs rose for hundreds ot feet into the air here indeed was an ideal spot for a bandit camp a few men couhl hold the defile t gainst an army below stretched a beautiful valley green and fresh as a moun tain paradise the burros scenting the sweet grass rushed down toward the bandit camp in a regular stampede as we approached a miserable looking mob of men7 women and children swarm ed out of the tents they were a hardbitten crowd every one of them they jeered at us and the children pelted ua with soft mud but finally my turn came suddenly i dug tny toes into that burro and charged the mob he bowled several over and in a mom ent the camp was in an uproar one fat fellow stood in my way but that donkey just butted him in the belt and he landed kerplunk on the side ot tent after hat we galloped off into the night before anyone could saddle a horse up the valley i found a cliff with sharp edged rocks working close t it i began to rub the ropes which bound my wrists on the rough sur face then lights began to twinkle here and there in the valley as the bandits set out to hunt for me with torches five minutes ten fifteen i rubbed those touih ropes while the lights came nearer then just as i had given up hope they snagped and i was free my arms were so numb that i was almost as helpless as a baby up and down the valley bobbed the torches and each torch was carried by a manhunter 1 edged closo into the cliff while the feeling gradually came back into my hands fortunately for me no one came near my hiding place whenever a bandits torch went out he would make a dash for camp so as not to be eft alone in the darkness prob ably he was afraid of a dragon jump ing on his back and flying away with him to its den anyhow the torches went out one by one and the search ended for the time

be hastened and weeds cheeked by the use of mulch paper which is now highly recommended by government authorities for the homo garden this is simply tough black paper coming in various widths which i is tacked down with wire staples or j laths between the rows of vegetables the paper absorbs the suns rays and heats up the ground and also collects tho rainfall which runs into the ground along the rows where it is most need ed with those semitender and ten der vegetables such as corn toma toes mellons and similar things growth is very materially hastened which is a most important point where the season is short or where extra i early vegetables are wanted more over this new mulch eliminates prac tically all cultivation gardeners aro advised to at least cover a portion of their vegetable patch with this paper ready tor planting if the weather will allow working in the garden and the soil is not wet enough to muddy ones feet this is the proper time to get in the first vege tables such as radish spinach let tuce carrots the first cabbages and other of the hardier sorts it is also time to dig the soil in preparation for j later seeding dig deeply and turn i in some wellrotted manure or some good commercial mixtures and before the seed is actually sown rake over three or four times to break up tho lumps use a stout string so that rows will be straight and if possible run them north and south so that all vegetables will obtain the maxi mum light the narrow sorts such as lettuce beets carrots radish and cress can be put in rows twelve or fifteen inches apart where horse culti vation is not used while beans corn cabbages and tomatoes require from eighteen to thirtysix inches to savo space it is a good plan to alternate the quickmaturing sorts such as leaf lettuce spinach and radish with beets corn and tomatoes before tho later sown and later maturing sorts will require the full room and tho earlier stuff will be out of the way tomatoes should be staked using stakes six feet high and when this practice is followed two feet between plants each way will be sufficient to bo tender vegetables must he grown quickly and this means frequent cult vation watering when necessary and plenty of fertilizer living stone in sculpture living stone and living rock aro applied in sculpture to rock or stone in its native or original position as contrasted with niarblo

explorer has entered the growing controversy over the proper use of foreign words in the latest issue of science confining his views to the field in which he is famous mr stefansson has questioned the usage of the eski mo word iglu or igloo as syn onymous with snowhouse quoting samuel kicinschmidt an authority on the language of the eski mo stefansson points out that iglu is derived from ikiva so that the fundamental meaning is some plee where one can lay or shelter himself from the weather from a lifetime spent among the eskimos stefansson points out that iglu is used as a term for a dwell ing place of any semipermanent form as long as the phrase is in the dialect of the estimated 10000 populafon of the eskimo in all countries thero are probably only 10000 who havo ever seen a snowhouse stefansson reasons that if we must use adjectives and qualifying phrases to indicate which type of house the eskimo lives in we should be specific in saying sod- house snowhouse earthcovcrcd log- house or dwelling this he feels will go far to overcome the storybook and motion picture presentation that oil eskimos live in houses of ice or snow
