AIL THSS To Some One with CAKCER (, Hl. by MoClur Nw.ppr Pyndlct u-hita tiiA fixv was still on tho grass and the sun not yet full-orbed over the eastern inns, more rum down the steep, narrow path which led, between thickets or sweet umu and bnyberry, to the pebbly shore be low, a maiden fnlr as any queen or fairy tale fame. Her sum uun nm. seemed to have borrowed Its color from the rosy dawn. A wandering ray of sunshine xounu her hair and transformed It into a crown of fine-spun, virgin gold. Her daintily shod feet appeared to nuiu touch the erouiul. yet they brought her quickly down to the bench. There she threw wide her sun-nrownou anus and took long breaths of the sea- washed air. 'Everything Is perfect this morning yes. everything!" She spoke nlouu. A kingfisher successfully camounageu against the rain-bleached limb or a troa nonr bv turned a startled eye In her direction for the thousandth part of an Instant, perhaps, men um- centrated again on trie snuriuius beneath him. The girl looked at the tiny jeweu-u at hnnnrl tn her wrist. She seated herself, carefully smoothing out her frock that It might not oe wrniMi, and, picking up handfulls of the shin ing pebbles, let them trickle slowly back to the ground, talking to them meanwhile. Her happiness was of the sort that demanded expression, aud at first glance there was no animate tiling nearer than a lonely osprey which cir cled high over the bay. So the pebbles and sedge grass heard her wonderful news a tale as old as the spectacle of the dawn, yet ever as new and marvelous to one who experiences It for the first time. Only the evening before had It hap penedthe miracle when he had taken her Into his arms and of a sud den It had come and she knew that she loved him I It would end in marriage, of course; but she didn't want to think of that now, only of the utter perfec tion of her prince and of the beauti ful, beautiful world, which was such a happy place to live in. On parting they had agreed to meet on the secluded beach, out of sight of the hotel, before breakfast. She had anticipated the time set, for the night had been sleepless and the glorious morning called. But at any moment, now, there might come the sound of footsteps down the narrow path. Instead of a sudden step there was a splash in the water a few feet from shore. The girl turned in time to see a fountain of ralubow-hued drops and emerging from It a gray bird with a white Wlar around his throat, carry ing in his beak a small silver fish. The bird flew straight back to his perch on the rain-blanched limb of the old dead tree, swallowed his booty and resumed the watchful waiting. Why you horrid thing!" exclaimed the girl, startled from the tale she was relating to the shining pebbles, "to eat up that beautiful little fish who wasn't doing you one bit of harm and on a glorious morning like this, when every living creature must be filled with Joy at being alive!" In the sedge grass, a few feet away, a lump which she had taken for a brown stone moved cautiously for ward, step by step. There was an in describably quick motion of a sinuous neck, a glitter of silver, then a lump moving down the long throat as some thing was hastily swallowed. It took but an instant for the tragedy; the murderer resolved again into a brown stone, ceaselesly watching its chance. Tn distrust the girl turned her back on the kingfisher and on the mursli hon find, after a fleeting glance up the steep path, turned to the sparkling waves breaking almost at iter leei. At least there was one creature on that beach who could enjoy the fair beauty of the morning without think ing eternallv and only of eating, she soliloquized. Something grotesque and horrid of form was moving smeways and with difficulty out of the water. With one ugly claw It was pushing he fore It an object almost as big as it self, which feebly struggled. As the girl gazed, fascinated, the thing took a great mouthful of Its liv ing prey in its free claw and crammed It into its mouth. It was only that common occurrence, one crab eating, with relish, a disabled brother; but to the girl looking on there came a nauseating revulsion of feeling and she stoned the cannibal till he dropped his victim and scurried away. "How perfectly awful 1 Why, I'll never eat another crab us long as I live they're too disgusting. Nor an other fish, either t Poor things; they have enemies enough! Oh, why need such cruel things happen in such a beautiful world?" A loose pebble rolled down the path, announcing the swift approach of tin other human to the secluded beach. The girl leaped to her feet; strong arms held lier tight. It was her prince, of course, and there followed an hour of that ecstasy only new lovers experi ence when they tell, to each other, Just how unutterable that love Is. For gotten were the greedy birds and the cannibal or crab. Once more life was ecstatic a gift of the gods! Then the prince announced that he must return to the city on the morrow. "Why, dearie," he answered to her strong protect, "I haven't the nmt to face vour father with my present bank account. Just give mo u couple of months, though, and 'oh boy, but 1 11 make some killing I Then we can b married." A charming blush suffused the face of the girl. To cover It she asked what he meant by "a killing." "Why, everlastingly watching my rivals in business, catching them uap plng and swooping down upon them like like that kingfisher chap over there and comlns home with the spoils." As he spoke, prompted by nn Instinct he didn't stop to analyze, one hand gently tlelavhed Itself from the hand of the girl and sought his watch. With a start nn arm was withdrawn from a slender waist and with a nim ble movement the prince was on his feet. "Hut why need you go so soon? the girl objected. "lhvakfast, darling! And I forgot to tell voul I got out tit four this morning and caught some snapper blues for vou. That's what nmde me n little late here. CSosh, It was great : getting up at that hour and killing meat for my mate like a regular prim itive cave num!" The girl gazed up at the glowing countenance of her prince and many things ran through her mind In the second that she hesitated, lie had felt a need for food, with his arm around her! He had killed Innocent living creatures, even as the kingfisher had, and the marsh hen but not. thank goodness, not like the crab! And he had killed them for ber-be-cause he loved her ! After all. what did It matter? There were many tilings she didn't under stand, and nothing mattered but that "He loved her." The girl sprang up with a happy smile. BROUGHT JOY TO ROOSEVELT Companion Tell of Colonel Joy In Unlooked-For Discovery in tht Bird World. Roosevelt's Intense eagerness ovei any new discovery In the bird world Is Interestingly described by John M. Parker, who once entertained the col onel on a camping trip along the Gulf coast of Mississippi and Louisiana. One day they discovered one of those queer birds known as the bull hat. and the colonel was grently excited about it. Here is the way that Mr. Parker describes the Incident: "One day my sons were running around on a little Island, and presently began waving for us to come over. We immediately answered. vnen t tn them we saw them point ing to a bird on the ground, blended so well with oy?ter shells una neons that it was almost Invisible unless you watched closely. They motioned to the colonel to step up to the bird, and as he did so it flew oft the nest, flut tering along the way as a great many birds do, simulating being badly wounded or crippled in order to lead us away from its nest. It was a bull !.- nlrrt.t timl V. fllKl B? I lie COl- unii " ' lb ' - onel glanced at the nest he remarked: 'Ry Jove, this bird is hatching now.' "Herbert K. Job, the nearest and possibly the most famous bird pho tographer In the world, came In an swer to our call and fixed up his old green shade from under which he made some wonderful pictures both of the bird returning to the nest, and then how he scared her off the nest. He made pictures of the two little hull bat? breaking the shfdl of the egg, and to see the eggs divide was wonderful ly Interesting. Mr. Job photographed them with patience and with a total disregard of mosquitoes. "The evening we returned to Pass Christian the colonel went around my yard with n great deal of Interest, and announced that he hud found nests of 27 varieties of birds. One in partic ular interested him very much the crested fly catcher. I told him that the bird had nested there since I had had the place, and that only a few dnvs before had raised an entire I. rood of young ones, which were now (lying around the yard. He immediately nsk ed me whether I had ever investigated the nest carefully myself. I told him no and asked why. He stated that he had never found a single nest of a crested fly catcher that did not have in It a shed skin of a snake, and said that he would like very much to see whether this nest 'way down on the Gulf of. Mexico could he an exception. We got a ladder and I took the nest out. Instead of having one skin In It, there were two, to his very great de light and Joy." Tulsa World. Cedar Apples, Mistaken tor Fruit of iree, aaiu u Be in Nature of Tumor 'Cedar nppllei' have le'" "l,,ncd heeause they have Immm. nislm .v Rome persons for ttio fruit of " w,ar tree" writes Frank l. hrn the department "On Natures I roll ltovs' Life. "They nn found rather commonly on the red cedar, perhaps best known as the Virginia red wlar, but they have no relation to the fruit, which Is a small bluish berry. These brownish, roundish or kii ney shaped bodies nw In reality caiiso.l by' a disease of the cedar. They nr hi the imlure of a tumor and are pro duced by a parasite, u low torn or plant life belonging to the group known as the 'plant rusls.' These mm.... galls are more properly spoken of " 'cedar rust.' I'rom the smlVo are pro- Jectlng horns of rusty color, inokaui may be found on the twigs during H fall. They gradually Inereiiso ' sl" In the winter, and toward spring the radiating herns develop. These horns absorb moisture like n sponge and r ter warm rains In the spring they he roine much swollen and turn from rusty brown to yellow. With the ab sorptlonof so much water they become Jelly-like and, with the Increase in sl.e. and change of color, are conspicuous. In this condition they are noticed by many persons who would otherwise overlook them. After u shower In the spring a tree which has mmierotm 'ce dar apples' appears as If It hud bloomed. One old Swedish bolunlst was so much Interested In I ho fact that a rain could bring forth mich handsome things where, only a few hours before, .one had observed noth ing unusual, nnd thought them no wonderful that he said surely they were Coell flos (flowers of heaven)." Explorers on Floe for Five Months. Scientific data of considerable vnlue were obtained by a party of 15 men who returned to civilization recently after spending about five months on a drifting ice floe in the Arctic ocean, according to Popular Mechanics Maga' zlne. Special attention was gven to the currents In Beaufort sen, that part of the ocean which stretches north of Alaska nnd Canada as far as Banks Land, nnd numerous soundings were made In the cold water. The floe on which the strange voyage was made was seven miles wide and fifteen long. Many seals, polar boars, ducks and land birds made their homes on the floating block of Ice.

Chinese Clothing Ripped Apart Each Time Washed The Chinese wear clothes which dif fer bo radically In style from the clothes of other nations that the American manufacturer of won ring annarel will find the Chinese market for his goods limited mostly to for eigners and to the comparatively few Chinese who have adopted foreign dress. Chinese clothes are largely made at home, being merely hntcl together, and they are ripped apart each time they are wiimIk-iI. i ft n U The G-E Range Saves Food The r comparison shown here is not more theory jtulmsca on uctuul tests, l-'knire this saving out in money tircsfiitl.rim of mnlt.
