PAGE TEST 1IEDF0RD MAIL TRIBUXE, MEDFOKD, OREGON. THURSDAY. JULY 11. 1933: READY MADE WIFE a v CORALE STAMTON J BYSOPSlSr Re Moor, tup pogedly lot while trying to fly the Paaifle, ha returned to London. Be leant from his former em- Jloyer that Laurie Moore, hi icie, 9 an employee of Albery'. But there is something odd in the way Moore take the newt. A lb try think. Still more odd i the fact that Laurie and ftex rode in the jams compartment from Liverpool to London without apparently rec ognizing each other. Chapter Six. MAD SITUATION t S It bap pen s, 1 have Mrs. Moore's address here," said Mark Albery. "Mrs. Moore worked tor me personally for a few weeks while my private secretary was 111. She does not have a telephone, how ever." A slightly elaborate explanation, and not quite true. Albery had asked Laurie for her address because he wanted to know where she lived. He found It In his address book and gave It to the young man. "Do you think perhaps you ought to warn Mrs. Moore? Shall 1 do it for you? It will be such a shock' "You Just said Joy doesn't kill," retorted Moore, with that sudden smile in his eyes, touched with mock ry. "Thanks very much. I'll Just get right along' Albery felt a sudden dislike for the airman. There was something Incomprehensible about him. His manner was so off-hand, almost In human. He was certainly changed, not only In looks. Perhaps hie ad' venture had really turned his brain a little. "I have a great admiration for Mrs. Moore," be said, a trifle stiffly. "She has shown the greatest pluck. and she is a splendid worker. You are a very lucky man, Moore." "Sure, 1 know 1 must be," was the airman's reply, as they shook hands. On Albery's part, not quite so warm ly, this time. Laurie Moore sat In her little living-room in the roof, with Its slant log attic ceiling on either side of the quaint dormer window, from whlcb she looked over a dusty wilderness behind high fences, whero tbe old houses on the other side of tbe street had been pulled down, and re-building bad not yet begun. Laurie's house was condemned, too, with Its eight neighbors. Hers was the end one, and there was a solitary plane tree In front of It, at the moment delicately tassel led and bursting Into green. j Laurie waa making an evening frock for Glad. She had cooked and eaten her supper and washed up and put everything away. IT was a bright little room. Laurie 1 wanted everything that Glad wanted. And Glad adored color. So there was orange and soft blue In the curtains and covers, and there were flowery cushions, and on the dark stained floor gay mats, and the fur niture was painted white and prim rose. As the old landlady said, It looked more like a garden thnn a room. Laurie's bell rang. That meant there was a visitor downstairs at the front door. Each tenant had a bell, and attended to It. The landlady was not only old but rheumatic. Who could U he? She had not many frlendd. Several of the girls In the office she liked very much but nearly all of them lived In the suburbs, and they only met when they made ap pointments. She knew three or four young men fairly well. But with none of them wan she on such terms that they would drop In casually just be fore ten o'clock at night. She put down the gleaming sky blue material that she was stitch ing with her busy, loving fingers, and went downstairs. She had a little landing all to herself, but no door enclosing the flat She switched on a light on the first landing, as she ran down. When she opeued the front door, a tall man stood outside. "I want to see Mrs. Moore," he said. "I am Mrs. Moore," Laurie ans wered, surprised. He was In the shadow; her face was lit by the lamp In the narrow hall. He gave a sharp exclamation. Then stared at her for a speechless moment. Then asked in a muffled voice: "You are Mrs. Moore? You!" He laughed, and Laurie recog nized blm, and gave a little cry. It was the man In the train who had been so rude to her. I "Oh, It's you! I didn't see you at Eden Precinct EDEN PRECINCT. July U. iSpl t Mrs. Luln Hamlin of Oakland, for mer resident of. this prri-lnct. was m visitor st AMilnnd over the Fourm of July. Mrs. Hamlin came to Yreka to attend the wedding of her son. Mervtn Fiddler, on July 6th i Yreka. Mr. and Mrs. O. A. Parker spent the fourth at Grunt Pirns. Mr. Parker played tn the band the Fourth at the Pss. William Beaidsley of Rogue River was a business vim tor tn Phoenix laat Monday, Walter Oermer nnd his wheat bound last Monday. He had quite art re Monday morning when he found one of the horse mthsinn Later he found out one of the bov of the owner hart come late at night and taken the horse. Mrs. A. O Croy nnd her daughter. Mra. Bob Elkman of Med ford were calling on friends in Phoenix an" Talent Monday. Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Pap worth ol San Francisco and Mrs J Berg, a friend, will visit with Mrs Pap worth's mother and brother. M: Margrate and Walter Oermer and family of Phoenix for a couple of weeks. Al Bell of Phoenix spent the went oX the Fourth at Kiaruatn Falls, first! What do you want? How did you know I lived here? How do you know my name?" He seemed to find speech difficult. He was staring at her. He would evl dently not take bis eyes from her face. IT looks like fate," he said at last, which sounded to her perfectly ridiculous. Then he went on. "A friend of yours gave me your ad dress. I found out your name never mind how. I want to have a chat with you. May 1 come in?" "I don't know why you should," she answered, resenting blm, as she "You were extremely rude to me had done before. "I don't want to talk to you. I don't know who you are. I don't knoT,- what friend ol mine you could have met. You wer extremely rude to me In the train." "I've something Important to say to you. Let me come In! I won't keep you long." His tone was so commanding that she gave way against her will. Sh led him upstairs and turned on mori lights In her room. She did not ask him to sit down. She looked at him coldly. "Would you please explain whj you are here?" "Out of curiosity," he replied, with that smile In his eyes that both fas cinated mid repnlled her. "I am in a peculiar position unique, I Imagine. You will admit I have reason for my curiosity, not to say Interest. I have Just lenrned that. you are my widow, I mean you hove been my widow. Now, It Is interesting to a man to learn he hos a widow when ho haa never had a wife." Laurie stood there, dumb, her eyes wide, her mouth open, hut not a sound could she make. Then her knees gave way and she fell Into a choir. "You see, I happen to be Rei Moore." he explained. Ills voice was harsh; his angry Hps curved with contempt. "I hove just heen with Mark Albery. and he told me that, you, my widow, were working in his office, nnd had been for two years."

T. (UP) Develop ment of a. brand of tear-less and odorless onions Is the aim of scien tist of the Cornell university de partment of vegetable crops who re cently produced several strains of non-smelting cabbage. Experiments are under way, It was disclosed, to determine on which types of soil or In what locality either mild or strong onions may be grown and what determines the power of the onion to bring tears to the eyes. The scientists' hope even to extend to conquering garlic, It waa Inti mated. Practical results cannot be expect ed for several years. Dr. Hans Plate ntus. engaged In research for the de partment, announced. Onlona cause tears because they contain a volatile oil, present In small amounts. Dr. Platenlua explained. He cited experiments made 40 years ago by a German chemist, F. W. 8emm ler. "Semmler had to distill more than a ton of onions to study the chemical composition and nature of the oil which he found causes the tears," Dr. Platenlua said. "Even then, he obtained less than one-tenth of a pint of pure oil. What it lacks In quantity, however, Is made up on the power of the oil." Dr. Platenlua disclosed that a frac tion of a drop of the oil obtained from the onions was sufficient to S-MATTER POP- V 'SL UP To fcTOT-rA-aifer SAOT2E- V ' -J f i (CTx Vvy v MV6L- "-oT , -ip X. j ' geA j" ' TAILSPIN TOMMY Willing to Help His Enemy But oy HaJ Forrest "ST I I " 'J' WSWETY- I IT ( M I I f IF I C"v TAIe WM fBISOIVSR.-' Cifcse JOLLA, ' vV BELT MU&T HAVE "S PTTA V I 'M jCV CtMS REVOIU7JOV S Good AS TOMMYS OLD Nx Mt" BROKEN--THAT HE USTQML ))' 5a ' & ' -w 1ASHD UP KOaJs ENHnV, (OHO Y Xvifl ANv- i, SAVES HIM FROM J HAVE CUT X- 'Kl ) ( ( BUT WE'S OKA-Y" vJsS"- f TBIE.D TO SHOOT li vi BEING BURNE.D 5; THE ISNmOfVjfMyi v A fKW AND PR06A&LY ''Sssssy--Jes - ' DOWN OUR PAL, 'Sk f,Ufr-. -X -X'4UP, ANfUAY- SI HIS SHIP 1 W Z7: W To WAITING TO" POT" ME vgL-J 1' i-r-JN WAi HIM66LF l!hJ sZ'--'-.'A , 5 Vs ISHTOM ) $!lSL.WJrw H,S PSTOL- A WS it-Wtk -C?r shot down -i'-i- ;--yy fire--zt--) z mS&E&ssgzr nSrv av tommy, L.O yigr -C-OIt &&Tf 3 ffl7bJ JH MOT-T v, the ground s.,.'

IXi L make the odor of onions noticeable through out several large buildings. "Based on the finding of Semmler, we have developed a chemical meth of of measuring the pungency of on lona accurately by giving the amount of volatile sulphur In the onion oil. This method had to be developed be cause the common tasting test waa unreliable. "Next, we had to discover which varieties were mildest and which the strongest. Onions of all the leading varelttea were obtained from differ ent parte of the country. Analysis of the samples showed that our com mercial varieties can be placed In three distinct groups the mildest, medium and the strongest onions." In the mildest group. Dr. Platenlus said, the department discovered were the Italian red. the sweet Spanish types and the early Orano. In the most pungent were White Portugal, Australian Brown, Ebenezer and Red Creole. The studies, he said, Include such problems as temperature, irrigation and the amount of sulphur In the soil as they effect the strength of the onions.

E.jl' 5 '.l O'l T-'O FOR CLEANING UP AT LAKE 0' WOODS Upon returning Wednesday from an Inspection trip to the Dead In- dlan and Lake o' the Woods districts. Supervisor Karl Janouch of Rogue River national forest announced that he expects word from upstate offices soon authorizing a plan whereby 75 men chosen from the Jackson county relief rolls, will be put to work at relief wages In the forest. The project, coming under Juris diction of the Emergency Relief Act, calls for only hand work, with no overhead positions, and will be su pervised by the regular forest serv ice personnel. Janouch said that he plans to concentrate the men around Lake o' the Woods for recreation voile, reduction of fire hazard, roadside cleanup, and to thin thick stands of timber to promote growth. Specifications of hire and wage are t expected soon. Janouch said the' wages would come under the regular relief wage scale for Jackson county, which ranges from M4 to $69 per month, but he was uninformed whether or not deductions from the monthly wages would be made for room and board. He said the matter of housing and subsisting the men will be worked out after the project Is authorized. DANCE At Bonney's Grill Saturday night. iii town. I ) Jhose peopie.
