i bays a Medford newspaper:
J . "Last yum; HosehuiK's team

' turned home defeated.. This
J year, with an even heller team,
the locals expect to shirt their
-Tlrlvu lor slate and national
recognition at tlie Initial ex
pense of Kosehurtf UKuin."
1 That 1h a pretty cocksure state
ment which causes us loyal Itose
Jjui'k folk to wag our heads with a
(urgo degree of doubt. In other
jwords. we are not ho sure thai
Bedford's Juniors will "atart their
Jdrlve for mate and national iciok
ultlon at the expense of KosehuiK
Jiuuin."
1 The Douglas1 county hoys are
Jdayins much heller Imsehall tlian
they did lu&t year. They have
Jwon every game played thin Bea
ton and there's no reason to be
lieve they won't give the pear
growers r trimming and thetn-
rives start a drive for slate and
Rational recognition.
I Our prediction is lliat tlo confl
;dence of the Med ford team and
Jfana will he to the advantage "1

laet of players, even though they
tare more brilliant performers than

The nupport of the community Is
)'un our own Juniors. A big crowd
of fans should be at I'inlay field
Saturday to help the hoys along.
Vp at Diamond lake Ihere are
crowds of vacationists, mostly from
California, enjoying the heaiily and

himself $.sou interest and still have
$ruou to keep himself and his fam

too few cows ol this class. We do
nnt pay enough attention to the
cIu;h ot cows or the kind of feed.
The average of all the cows in the
association for the month was less
than 31 pounds. The average for
the county is probably less, fur
the man who goes Inlo a cow test
ing associations is more apt to cull
out his boarders than is the man
who merely trusts to his own judg
ment or hopes that his cows are
good ones.
But so much has len Bald and
written about cows, and the test
ing associations and extension ser
vice are so convenient and bo will
ing to help, that there is less ex
euse for poor cows than for most
business failures.. This row would
return her owner over $2'.i during
the month at an average price of
30 cents for bullurfat. She re
tpiirea no more care and but little
more feed than the avenue cow,
which returned only $i( at the tame
price for butterfut. A herd of Biich
cows on a Wallowa county farm
will provide more relief for the
farmer's financial woes than con
gress will in two generations.

IIHLL the new tariff law help or
" hurt business? As to tnat, only
time can tell.
American business Is more
world-wide In character than ever
before more dependent for Us
prosperity upon what the people of
other countries can buy from us,
which In Us turn, depends to a
large extent upon what they are
able to SELL to us. A high tariff
Is no longer a sure-fire cure for
business depression iu this country.
Rut at least the UNCERTANITY
as to the new tariff law is over.
That ought to help some.
pIC.l'RES collected by the Greater
Oregon Association show that
in Ihe past 20 years the approxi
mate sum of a MILLION DOL
LARS has been spent In promoting
or opposing ' legislation proposed
under the Initiative and the refer
endum. That Is a lot of money.
QTTLL, what of It? The money
was all spent IN OREGON. That
Is to say, i v passed merely from
one hand to the other. The eco
nomic condition or the state at
large wasn't bettered or harmed by
the spending of it.
Presumably, those who put It up
could afford it.
IT ISN'T a sufficient indictment
of direct legislation to say that
Us operation causes people to
spend money.
This, however, IS TRUE: Too

CHAPTER XLVII.
And so, when Fleming Stone
came into the room, he saw a pret
ty girl with a sweet but trouble !
face sitting up against the pillows
waiting for him. V
"Let iae do the talking," he
suggested. "We want to cover all
the ground we can with the least
possible. exertion on your part .I'll
ten you wnat i Know ana wnat 1
think, and you can set me right If
I go astray." r -
And so exppditlous : was the -detective's
procedure, and so true his
deductions, that Emily had little
to do but acquiesce and tell htm
a few points that he had no ofher
way of learning.
"Now,", he said, as they finished
their . confab, "I wonder - if you
would be willing to put this all out
of. your mind, for twenty-four
hours. Forget it utterly and leave
It all to me. In the meantime, you
get thoroughly rested, give poor
Mr. Sayre a sight of you, and your
aunt, too, if you feel equal to It,
and then.-, tomorrow, If you're up
to it, tell the whole story to us all."
"That would just suit me." Em
ily smiled at him.. "Tills talk with
you is about. aU I can stand for
one day, but tomorrow I'll be ready
to face the whole world."
"J believe you will be," and
ftoue realized that, severe though
the shock had been this young,
healthy constitution was going to
throw off the effects with aston
ishing rapidity.
i At the nurse's orders, Emily
had a long rest, and alter luncheon
Rodney was allowed to visit her.
, Warned not to he too emotional,
he just took her iuto a strong, b!
lent embrace, and then, laying her
back on the pillows, he saldr
r "Not much talky-talk. my lady.
You're just to be still and look at
me and let me look at you for the
space of twenty minutes, and then
it's pood-bye until tomorrow."
"We'll have our twenty min
utes," Emily assured him. "and
something tells me we won't wait
till tomorrow for another twenty.
If I wheedle the n;irse, I'm sure
she'll let you come in and say good
night to me, and oh, Roddy, dar
ling, Iu a day or two, I'll be abso
lutely all right again. Won't that
be fine?"
- Sayre fully agreed with this, and
then .the twenty finutes flew by as
if on wings. '
; Aunt , Judy .'.was allowed a short
interview .and Betty and Gibby a
peep, and then Emily was ordered
to rest .up for the. Interview of the
morrow. ....
It was an important affair.
- Emily.-N dressed, hi her right
mlud and fairly strong and well,
sat on the sofa In the lounge, with
her Rodney beside her.
,She was about to tell her story
to those most concerned to hear
it, and her audience included Chief
Jennings and Detective Lawlor, as
well as Fleming Stone and the
Knollwood household.
"I shall tell this just as It hap
pened," Emily began. In a low.
clear voice. I shall make U as
short as I can, and I can fill in
details later. For I don't want to
give out before I finish.
."As you all know, I left here
about five o'clock the day of the
tea, to run over to the hospital to
kiss Mrs. Laurence's new baby.- A
foolish notion, perhaps,, but that
doesn't matter, thats what I start
ed out to do.. I had on my diamond
necklace and I caught up my sable
fur and put it- on, with a vague
thought .of covering up the neck
lace. Not that I feared robbery,
but it seemed a,-sensible thing to
do. , - - ,
f "I .went straight down our path,
and along the. road toward the
cross-lots cut to the hospital. The
iPenuingtons had left, here about
ten minutes before I did. and us
I crossed the big ravine I thought
I saw Mr. and Mrs. Pennington on
the., bridge, over the. little .ravine.
They did not see me, -and they
were quarreling,, or It seemed so to
me. Anyway, X didn't think much
of.lt, for, they often had tiffs, but
as I got nearer, I saw I saw Jim
Pennington throw his wife over the
bridge rail. There is no doubt
about this. I saw it, and I heard
her faint cry.. . ...
,"I went on and came to the
bridge w here Jim Pennington stood
alone.
"'You've killed Polly,' I cried.
'You threw her over into the ra
vine!' !
" 'Nonsense, he said, 'you're
dreaming; 1 did .nothing of the
sort. Come along with me up to
Ihe house and PI show you Polly
there, alive and well."
'I felt dazed, I didn't know what
to do, -and urged on. In fact he
half carried me, I found myself In
tho Pennington house.
"'Where's Polly? I demanded,
for 1 saw only Rosa, the maid.
"Without a word. Jim picked me
up and carried me upstairs. H-
opened the door of the nursery
and put me luside, and came in
himself.
"'Now, Emily.' b.e said, speakiiw
with perfect calm, 'you saw me.
I did push Polly over. Never mind
whv or how. Are you going to
tell?
"'Tell!' I cried.. 'Of course I'm
going to tell. I can't wait to get
to some place where I can tell.
" 'Then you must never reach
such a place, he said, so coldly
and crully I thought he was go
ing to kill-me then and then ,
"Well, you know the nursery at
the Pennington house. It's a love
ly Ui room, all white enamel paint
and exquisite .furnishings, and a
bathroom all white and silver.
Polly Jiad U done up for the poor
little baby who died. And It is
soundproof: not a hit of noise can
gel through its walls. Polly had
that done to keep the child quiet
and to prevent its disturbing the
house ir it cried. Also, the win
dows are strongly bar rod. Can
you imagine a better prison? Jim
locked me iu there anil said I could
think the nutter over.. If i would
promise not to tell on him uutit
alter he had time to settle things
up uud get awn fioiu lullddle. I
could go free at oiue. Me was
Perfectly willing to trust my word."
"What a great story!" mur
EMILV?,
mured Stone as Emily pased for
a moment, and was a given a re
freshing draught by the nurse.
Abel Collins had arrived and
also Everett. Craven, but Emily
seemed not to care what additions
were made to her "audience. She
went ahead with her tale as if she
had but one idea, to get it told.
"So he went away, Jim did, and
about half past six, he looked in
again to see if I had changed my
mind. . '
"I told' him no, Pd sit there till
doomsday before I'd do one- thing
to help him escape punishment for
his awful crime. He took it light
ly, as he does ' everything, and
went off, locking the door behind
hira.
"I was mad more than fright
ened., and 1 banged on the door
and 1 yelled and I did all I could
to make a racket. Then, about
seven, Rosa came up with a tray
of dinner. .Perfectly good food, but
I couldn't eat, of course. t I tried to
get around Rosa, but she is bound
heart and soul to Jim Pennington
She adores him, and either he took
her away with him, or she thought
he would, I don't know which. Well,
she left the tray, and came back
for it at eight or so. As I hadn't
touched It, she just shrugged her
shoulders and went off and left
it there. . ,
"That was Thursday, you know.
Well, after that, Jim Pennington
came to the nursery twice every
day and all he said was to ask
me If I had reconsidered and if 1
would promise not to tell on him
until he had time to make his get
away. I refused to do this, natur
ally, and he went away every time.
Rosa brought me meals three
times a day and I just stayed -there.
I didn't know what to do, but I
did know that I was not going to
promise to shield that murderer!
Of that I was positive, no matter
what else happened."
"You obstinate little piece!"
Abel Collins murmured beneath
his breath. . t . .
"So the days went by. Of
course, I was perfectly comfortable,
physically. The- nursery has a
lovely nurse's bed and all the bath
room appointments are perfect,
and there were books about and
magazines. And Rosa nrought me
lovely things to eat. ',
"Rosa knew all about it, then?"
asked Law lor, who was eagerly lis
tening.
"Oh, yes. , Whatever Jim did was
perfect in her eyes. - Theu came
the funeral. I knew, because Jim
told me. He was - most straight
forward and casual about it all.
" 'I'm sorry, Emily he would
say, 'that you re so obstinate. ,iou
could just as well be at home and
have your wedding as planned and
ail that ' but I cut him off ev
ery time and told hira the moment
I got out of that place, I should
go straight to the police with the
wnole story.
"'And you can't keep me here
forever,' I. said. . ,
"And he said, 'Oh, I don't know'
in a meaning way that gave me
my first feeling of fright. Suppose
he should go off he said he was
going away and leave me there
to die! I couldn t make anybody
hear. I had tried and tried. I had
yelled out of the windows, but they
face up tho mountains, you know,
and the room is between two ex
tensions, so my voice couldn't car
ry far." i

Just like your coffee! -
What a rare discovery when
coffee was first packed in vac
uum! Just like coffee flavor,
tea flavor also evaporates from
an ordinary tin or cardboard
box. But now tea is packed in
vacuum and what a differ
ence! When you try it you will
know what you have missed all
these years.-
Try SMMng TEA bags faeked
in vacuum. Each bag contains
just enough for two hot iuft or
two iced glasses the modern
way to serve tea.
