The start of the trail today was delightful a j beautiful sun-dap-, pled 'path iwhich stretched fascin atingly and mysteriously upward.

"Probablr, we'll get -to xhat summit of peace and joy you're spieling about," - he ' says, with a provoking grin, "when we're ready to celebrate our ' golden or diamond wedding day. You know, like; those dear old couples that have their pictures in the papers with the caption, "He never said a cross word to her. Personally, I 'think either the consciences or the memories of those dear old people are at fault. We couldn't hare any such- caption. I might say, 'she never biffed me with a roiling pin, but that's as far as I could truthfully go. And to tell you the truth, old dear,: I wouldn't give a tinker's damn for a continual" peaceful valley or glorious mountain-top in mine. It would be too monotonous. AnI whatever our life has' been, old girl, I don't think, the most cap tious critic could say that it has been monotonous." I have realised before that Dicky's volatile nature ' demands excitement, variety, and I have Wondered sometimes how long I, with my rather methodical prosaic temperament, could hold him lo al to me. ;' .; ' , -There has been a long stretch of peaceful valley in our-life jour ney, since the awful day when our baby boy was .stolen from us by Grace Draper's pitiful ; tool, Tin'. I ( came very near banishing ' my husband from my heart at thit time, because of his absence mo toring with Edith Fairfax during the awful first hours of Juniors disappearance, but t Dicky's, terri ble remorseand the. restoration of our baby brought " us together again, and I have been given no reason to doubt him since. Is he, perhaps, beginning to weary of the uneventful quiet tenor of our way? . . The summer months have gone swiftly since that terrible exper ience, with my most serious worry, the condition of Lillian Under wood. She rallied1, so slightly gained strength so slowly, in her long convalesce nse, that when at last, the mere shadow of her f orm- f er , self,' she was able to leave the hospital"-1" D.

Marion, to the place I remembered' so well ai the scene of -the dramatic expert ence which gave Robert Savarin back to reason. :t v . Dicky "Resolves. Of Grace Draper, since that night bf Junior's recovery and her mel odramic escape, we. have heard Geo. C. Jones . manager of the Lee Tire and Rubber Co's., Salem braneh announced that he is go ing, to award real cash prises to the young people ot this district in a big essay writing contest which opens todays and will close on November 9 th at 6 o'clock p. m. As outlined by Mr. Jones, the title of the essays will be "Why a Lee Tire?" The question really is Why is a Lee tire on the mar ket, and why does It contain cer tain features that are found in no other tire on the market to- i day? There are many reasons and they are important, but to get the best written statement of them the contest idea is put forth. The rules are simple any per son of either sex under the age of 20 years; in Salem or vicinity, excepting employees of tne Lee Tire-company may enter. No. es say must be ' over 500 t words in length. Paper must be written on one side only, ! with the full name and address of the contest ant written plainly on a separate piece of paper, which should be nothing.
