Carrie Dade, a worn young mother with two small children, . arouses Jaxie's sympathy. But the - most Interesting passenger on the train to Miss Cameron is Elrby El liott, tall and gray-eyed and humor ous. As night falls they remain talk- - ing on the observation platform.

Take felt the shock of alternating hot and cold chills np and down his spine. Had these men no sense of decency, whatever? Never bad he witnessed such brazen immodesty. He opened his mouth to remove his false teeth, coughed, choked, and ex perienced a moment of panic. His hand trembled. With ms back turned i to the room, he imagined that every one of the four pairs of eyes were focused upon him and every one of the four pairs of hands were ar rested in their activity, waiting to see what he would do. He had to brace up, get his teeth out, brush them and escape from this horrible place. .Dunns his mental soliloquy. Jake bad managed to brush his teeth and slip them into his coat pocket. To further delay the necessity of turn ing, around, be pulled a paper drink- trig cup out of the rack nearby, filled it and swallowed the contents in one convulsive gulp. Meanwhile, a ilv. ifarie Bortin. the bride, wishes she and Husband Harry had taken one also. Finally, all the passengers -are settled for the night but not all of them to sleep. Kirby Elliott, la upper 6, remembers Jaxie's brows eyes, etc Clarice Cole wonders what she will find In Hol lywood. ' She wonders also about the handsome man in number 3 who, all evening, bad remained aloof from the others. Jake thinks of the caboose In which ha sleeps when taking cattle to the Chicago market. ; CHAPTER VIII Yet, here he was, riding on a train that acted as if it were trying to run way from itself. It traveled so fast it made him dizzy to look out the window. Jake was genuinely grate ful; to that colored porter. He had simplified things for him greatly in this bewildering situation. The fel ler seemed to know just what you didnt know and wanted to ask, even before yon asked it. For instance, the matter of the dressinrroom. That was what the porter had called it Jake wondered just what purpose it served, but Mose had indicated that he might go there to prepare for the night, while ' Mose performed his abracadabra of transforming his seat into a bed. So Jake entered the men's dressing-room with trepidation, glanced bout as he closed the door; and withdrew again with haste, feeling darned thing these men all had. Never had one In his life didnt ex pect to, what was more. Well, he couldn't disrobe and walk the length of this ear in the gray flannels with the round white patches on the knees, could he? So, gazing neither to the right nor ts the left, he escaped from the room. A nauseating giddiness swept over him as he stumbled weakly the length of the ear and felt the wel come relief of the parting curtains of lower 2. Almost, this strange, new-fangled bed seemed like home to him. At least it was private; it was his own for this journey. Sitting on the edge of the berth behind the curtain, he slipped off his shoes and kicked them underneath; then he swung around and in a sit ting posture, removed his trousers; he unfastened his collar and placed it m the funny net hammock Mose having called his attention to that receptacle for small articles; then he carefully removed the roll of Car 74X was only one of tea that formed the long trainband each car was filled almost to capacity. Only part of the uppers and a few draw ingTooms were vacant, But there were just two other Individuals whose presence on the Big Chief were destined to influence directly the lives and fortunes of the passen gers in 74X. One of these waa the occupant of drawing-room A in the observation no less a personage than the in imitable Yola Benee, the world's most adored idol of the silver screen. She traveled incognito, wore se verely tailored clothes and seldom left her room to mingle with that small portion of her worshiping public which traveled with her un awares. Her maid ordered her meals served In her room and Yola came out onjy wnen tne train stepped, at long, intervals, to stroll up and down the station platforms apart from her feuow passengers. If anyone recognized in the flesh the exquisite beauty that so thrilled mil lions from the screen, no one ven tured to suggest her identity. Least of all did Clarice, in the next car. realize that the girt whom she had idolized and imitated for two faith, ful years followed just behind her as v they speeded over the miles toward that mecca of beauty and genius, wealth and art, on the west coast. But it was just as well that she did not know, for she might have made some unpardonable fan pa that would have cost her later a valuable ally, at a time when she needed one gravely. The other important personage on the Big Chief was none other than Joe Worley, whose hand on the throttle in the engine cab held the destinies of more than a hundred souls for more than ten hours. Per haps no one of them gave him passing thought; but Joe Worley never dismissed then from hi mind while he remained on duty. He would be relieved on the following day, to return to Chicago that night with the east-bound Big Chief; but he had known for many years that when lives were given into a man's keeping, that man had to meet the responsibility one hundred per cent. Guiding a limited train was net a job you could do half-heartedly. You gave your whole mind and soul. and as they are called, on hatching from the egg shortly after the blossom Ing period may be found In. large numbers en the devel oping fruit and on the foliage. Oa reaching maturity in cou ple of weeks they drop to the ground and enter the soil where tbey remain until the next spring, when they emerge as adults. Prune thrlps can tot, con- trolled by spraying at the cor rect time with the proper- ma terials, according to Mr. Rieder. Set Fp Warning Cages Emergence cages have been placed in two localities near Sa lem, one at Liberty, and one in Keizer bottom by the assistant county agent. ' By means of these cages it will be possible to inform the growers as to the exact time for the application of the sprays. Experimental thrlps spraying by the Oregon experiment station showed large increases in yield in sprayed over unsprayed plots where the plots received from one or two timely sprays. In some orchards at many as 40 times more prunes were obtained from sprayed plots, and stfll ether testa gave net weight of over 3 tons of prunes to an acre of sprayed trees to less than ton on unsprayed trees. Lime aVnlprrnr Formula A spray of lime sulphur, three gallons to 100 gallons of water, with one pint of nicotine sul rhate 40 per cent added, glres fine results. It is important to have your spraying- equipment orernanled and In perfect con dition, in readiness for ure as soon as the proper time arrives spray materials should be oa hand before the bads begin to swell. Success in thrlps control may depend on a very few days when spraying conditions are favorable. A delay for any rea sou may mean failure to con trol this Insect. Thrips are likely to be any where on the tree, and so the spray should cover every part. warns Mr. Rieder. The snray is a contact spray and must come in contact with the insect to kill It. The first spray should be ap plied In about two weeks or so, states the assistant county agent.
