VFKKLV OGlE RITER COURIER FRIDAY, MARCH 21. 1913. a "That's Just What I've Been Looking For" HILE we were getting the opinion of farmers on our new cream separa tor power outfits, one of them said: "l have been looking for such a combination as this. 1 need an en gine with that kind of a gear on it to slow down the speed, Thrre are half a dozen small ma chines on my farm for that engine to run. I want that outfit." This is a sample of the enthusiasm with which our new power outfits have been re ceived. The outfit consists of an j IHC Cream Separator Dairymaid, Bluebell, or Lily and a one-horsepower back-geared III.C en gine. The engine is mounted on a portable truck, and can be used for any farm work to which power can bo applied. The back gear adjustment runs at the proper speed to operate any hand turned machine. The working parts on I II C cream separa tors are accurately made and the bearings are well lubricated. The shafts and spindle are the strongest used in any separator. The shaft and spindle bearings are supported by the frame, but have no contact with it -the con tact is between the stetl spindles and phosphor bronze bushings. The gears are spirally cut so that there is no lost motion between them. They are entirely protected from grit and milk, but arc easily accessible for cleaning. See the local dealers who handle these ma chines. You can get catalogues and full information from them, or, write International Harvester Company of America , (Incorpoinled) Portland Ore. The I.H.C.

By VIRGINIA LEILA WENTL H Ml III I I I I II H HI IH I M Mrs. James I Hi was looking out across the Rue do RIvolt st the morn log's brightness of the Tullerles gar dens when the boy In the hotel lift brought her a cablegram. It was a iue-i!ge from her lord and master In Chicago declaring that her Immediate presence was required. At once all the brightness faded out of the Tullerles, for the frivolous gayety of Paris bad been enKflally attractive to this portly, easy going, good natured matron of the west "Hut. mother, you'll have to go alone. It'll be a whole month lefore my sing ing lesion are finished, you know," broke in L'lya, who was having ber flaxen hair shani'iooed by a real Pari, sin n hairdresser. Mrs. IMx clasped her ring bedecked, pudgy hands. She always clasped her hands when she agreed about unythlng. "You'll have to have a chaperon, of course, dear." she added. "Now, who can we get on such a little notice?" There was silence for a moment while the deft fingers of the hairdress er ran through the flaxen hair with a soothing touch. Then Elya's girlish voice sounded In a delightful treble: "Oh, mother. I know the very per son! She's terribly nice and awfully ladylike" (Elya always emphasized her adverbs and used indiscriminate ones at that), "und she's an American, nnd that's the best of all ouch!" In her eagerness she'd turned her bead a bit too suddenly, nnd some soap bad got In her sapphire eyes. "Oh, I know who you mean," helped out Mrs. I Hi. while her daughter strug gled with the soap. "You mean Miss Clemmens, the governess to that little English boy who died last week? Yes; she's looking for another engagement, that's true. And she certainly Is a lady." So Miss Dorothy Clemmens of New York was engaged to chaperon Elya I!x for a month In Paris nnd then bring her back to America. To console herself for her mother's departure Elya bad Miss Clemmens secure tickets for that night's opera. She sat In a box In her young beauty set off by a $200 Piojuln gown and se renely allowed the audience to stare. Already she was learning that th mission of the beauty Is to support modistes and to be stared at. Rehlnd her, robed In some soft, inexpensive gray stuff, with n narrow white lace collar, sat her chaperon. The opera was "Siegfried," the scher o of Wagner's great symphony, as Lavlgnae has called It Upon Miss Clemmens' music parched soul (she'd not henrd an opera for over a year) It fell like gracious dew and fetched a sweet refreshment. When the orches tra tells the mood of Siegfried In the second act. fee!ing the first fret of awnkened passion, her eyes nhone like stars, her lips parted slightly, and Just at that Juncture- n man In the audience caught her perfect profile as she leaned slightly forward. That same look, downward nnd side wise nud smiling: that exquisite head In its cloud of wnvy dark hair! Paul Demurest brushed away the years that had blurred it ull. and then suddenly he remembered. Yes, he remembered. Oh. It was so long ago. so many years ago! And she was In the same box with that gay little butterfly, that American . flirt. Elya Dlx. Rless Elya Dlx! It I was the first time he had ever felt i grateful to her. He would make his j way to her box at the end of the sec-; ond act 1 "Why, Mr. Deruarest! I'm awfully j glad to o yon I honestly am! Thought you'd forgotten me. And I'm all alone now mother sailed unex pectedly for home this morning and I'm all alone now." Elya greeted hlra In her young untamed effusiveness as he entered the lox. "All alone?" he questioned gravely. "Well, there's Miss Clemmens here. my chaperon. By the way, she's an j American too. Miss Clemmens, Mr. Demurest. You've heard mother speak j of him, I'm sure. Oh, here come j Dickie Marston and Rob Sawyer! j How terribly Jolly!" F.lya reached out I her daintily gloved hand to greet two newcomers. They were of the aggressive type, these two English chaps, and In a few seconds Demarest made his way to Miss Clemmens In the rear. "IVi you know. Miss eiemmens," he ' began curiously, "the last time I saw , you you wore your hair In two braids, ; and I wrote a poem and dedicated it to the curls at ti e end." Ills voice and mouth were grave, but .there was a smiling gleam In bis eyes,. Miss Clemmen glanced rather blank ly from beneath her heavy lashes at this man well under forty. "I think," she legan. with a calm dignity befitting her position-but Just then, on the very second word of re proval. a flash of understanding radiat-' ed over her tired, lovely fuoe. "You surely you're not Prince Paul?" "The very same-princess. Paul lVmatvst Iwwed very low. "Rut -but why IVmarest" pursued Miss Clemmens. with punled unoer tsinfy "A grand uncle over here without any closer Ksue left me his money and estates, !pvid ntr I'd take his name in the bargain. I took tbera all." The Hght raillery In the voice changed to i seriousness. "But I d have known you, pr'acess. If you went by any name an dr heaven." "For pity's sake." dimpled she. Then she added, with a wi:f.il dignity: "But I must have il;i:r-.I a cle.,1 sim-e then. That was nearly twelve years ago. Just fancy!" "I don't Ms- the changes," said he gallantly. "T me you're Just the same." But, oh. hw tired she looked his gay, light hearted little princess! Aud how he louged to fold her protecting' In his arms! The wide divergence In j that moment between what this man ' wished to do nnd what he did do stands 1 for civilization. "Io you remember those glorious t sails we used to have on Long Island i sound?" he asked constrainedly, plek ' ing up the fan which she had dropixnl. Remember? The Purisian opera houe and the bum of chattering voices 1 f, 'id I'd away. In thc.r place came the l big, blue sound covered with white j sails, and let voice save that of "Prlnea .

It seemed absurdly, Irritatlngly quiet to hi ui until he met n princess.

He didn't get back as quickly as he had hoped. Wheu he did he found that she had flown, and be could And no trace of he-." When the low, mesmeric voice had finished, Dorothy Clemmens looked up with startled eyes. The lambent flame In them met an answering flash In his. "Father died the year I graduated," ahe said unsteadily. "We had to give up our old home, and ever since I've been putting what little learning I'd gained to use 'teaching the young mind,' etc. Incidentally now I'm chap eroning, as you see." She gave a vague, graceful little motion with her slim hand, which Included Elya, the two English chappies and part of the stage. "Back In Unit little spot on Long Is land," went on her companion eagerly, "the sea Is Just as blue as ever, I'm sure. And the white snlls nre there, and don't you think, princess, If we went back we might find fairyland?" Just here the orchestra took up the superb stretto of "The Decision of Love." and there was the general stir in the house of people getting ready for the third tu t When ut the end of the month Elya Dlx sailed for America, Miss Dorothy Clemmens sailed with her as Paul Demarest's fiancee. "But Isn't It terribly funny, mother," said Elya as she unpacked her Parisian finery, "to t.'ilnk of my coming back from pie Paris quite unengaged and my chaperon with a prize on her string?"
