And worried as I was over the girl,' my desire to have Lillian's advice upon the mystery could wait. I told myself, until Dicky's suspicious resent ment was disarmed, as I knew it would be by my apparent eager ness to relurn to the house, I could not have told how I knew that Dicky was both reliev ed and pleased at my fretful little speech. For neither his face nor his eves showed any change of ex- -pression. Yet know it I did, and the knowledge irritated me as had my; discovery of Robert Savarin's attitpde toward Lillian's work. Dicky,. looked at me closely. His eyes softened. "You do look done up," he said 1 vnir '?mH.'

"Come along. I'll tuck you in." How about you, Lil? Shall I guide your tottering foot steps, too?" 1 flashed her a negative, and she took her cue promptly, al though I knew she had no idea why I did not wish her to accom pany us. "What About the Cars?" "Xo. I'll spare you that task," she said lightly.. "This is the last chance I'll have to look at these mountains, and I'm gointf to im prove it. Tell Marion where I am, will you, Madge?" "Surely,", I said with the men tal reservation that I would delay that information until Robert Sa varin had had his chance to re deem himself for his boorishness of the morning. Strangely enough, the rancor which I1 had felt to ward the artist had disappeared, dispelled by his willingness to agree with Lillian's plans for go ing home, and I was determined that nothing should interfere with the interview I had promised him. He was1 standing at the rear of the lawn as we rami' up the pnth from the brook, and 1 dropped Dicky's arm and crossed to him. "She is down at the brook," I said in a low voice. "Better hur ry." "Thank you." lie turned away almost abruptly, and walked swiftly down the path. Dicky looked curiously at me as 1 re joined him. "So that was it, was it?'? he queried. "I thought old Lil was developing a mad thirst for sun set on the mountains. What are you doing, bringing fond hearts together after bitter quarrel? You'd much better leave 'em alone in my opinion. I tell you again that old Harry, devil as he was, had the makings of a much better pal for Lil than this solemn old genius'-! . "We'll never agree on that point," I said saucily, "even if our hearts do beat as one on all other things. So don't let's discuss.it tonight. I " really am ready to drop. I'm going straight to the bungalow. Will you hunt up Jun ior and bring him to me? And then what about the cars Are they all fixed up for the trifl?" Dicky's eyebrows knit into a frown, and his good humor van ished. Final Preparations. "It's a wonder you wouldn't ditch the universe once in a while," he said crossly. "I should think you'd be tired carrying it on your Bhoulders every minute of the day and night. But to re assure your anxious mind, I'll tell you that the cars are all fixed up, both of them, or will be before I go to sleep. You get yourself and tho baby ready, and-see that the eats are in. I'll try to struggle along with the rest. Of course, 1 know without your massive in tellect concentrating on the job that I'm apt td start with a wheel or two 'missing,-but we'll do our little best." I was so-tired that "the anger I woud naturally have felt at his tirade died even as it flashed into my heart. All I wanted at that moment was the chance to lie down and to banish, if possible, the headache which I had ftlt coming on for a-n honr or two. "Never muid'the cars,"' I sajd wearily. "1 don't care what you do with .them. Just bring Junior to me a? soon as j ou can." But I would have been less than human, if through all the final lit tle preparations tor the morning's start, which I made before 1 slept, there had not run the malicious little wish that something, not im portant or dangerous, might oc cur the next day to mar Dicky's self-sufficiency. (To lie Continued.) Silo is now as mdispensible to a farmer as his barn (Continued from page 7) Forty women have siuned for the interior decoration class of the Salem Arts league, and according to Mrs. Monroe Gilbert, the leader of the section, no more enlistments will be made, only in case of some of the present signees taking their names from the list. 1'ecause in dividual problems will take a pro minent part in the course, it is necessary to limit the class en rollment.

Through Rate Question Before Federal Board day telegraphed Judpe Henderson. Commerce counsel for the Iowa railroad commission, representing tho western commissions, before the interstate commerce commis sion, authorizing himj to express the views of the local! body. The proceeding, on which hear ing will be held in Washington February 4, was brought by the New England lines, which claim that the divisions which they re ceive should b$ increased. The state 'commissions of the western states, contend that the divisions of western carriers are now too small and that any substantial re duction may necessitate a read justment of western rate.s to make np the loss in revenue.

Judge Henderson Is , now en,route to Washington to repre sent the western commission.
