THIS k my ide? of what a room
should be." said Tim.
BufT chuckled. "Yon shoul'l have
seen it when we bought the ranchl
Dyed pussy willowsin about eleven
different vases. Hassocks, ir foot
stools, whatever vou like to call
'em. lying in wait for the unwary
at practically every turn. Two
paintings I had to remove those
before I took my hat off or Lance
would have been ill. A sofa which
held one and a half pe 'sons if each
of them gripped an arm tightly."
He cast an eye about the big
room.
"Who wrought .-. miracle?"
"1 did!" She gave a little wiggle
of childlike glee. "What sort of an
interior decorator am I, Mr. Tim
othy Corliss? Although," she ad
ded nonestly, "it was more a )ob
of removal than it was of decorat
ing. First I stripped the room to
the bare walls and floor; then I
went to Boulder and ordered this
furniture sent out. It came the
same day. The whole procedure
hardly required twelve hours "
"And unlimited nash." he re
minded her. "Don't forget that."
He ran a suspicious hand over the
arm of the chair he wa occupying.
"I have an idea that this thing I'm
sitting in cost about a hundred dol
lars, maybe more.
"What if it did? I happened to
be where I could buy what Lance
likes. But I've made him comfort
able in places where eight dollars
would be the limit of expenditure.
I." she boasted, "can make a home
out of three yards of cretonne, two
aof.i cushions and a fireplace."
He sighed and relaxed. "I'll take
your word for it. I suppose a course
in interior decorating is indicated.
But I recommend Chicago. Boul
der's a grand little place, but I
doubt if they go in for the kind of
thing you need."
"I never said a word akout want
ing to take such a course," was
her indignant reply. "It was you
who brourht it up warned me
against it. You might as well give
n, Tim. You need me and I I
reed to be needed. I'll look after
you, and you can pay back all the
money you owe George "
"Using what for cash?"
"It'll be your own money," she
aid quickly. "It isn't even some
Lance gave mel Grandmother left
me something, and I do sell things,
you know. We'll have i joint bank
account."
He picked up a 1 "1 ood and
chucked it savag-'Iv ,nln the fire.
"I owe you a In! luff, and
twenty's pretty young;, but even
taking those thing:, into considera
tion you're pushing me far much
too far. We're both tired out. We'd
bettor go to bed."
"Then why the extra Ior on the
Br.-?" she asked.
"It's unreasonable," he conced
ed. "But then so is everything in
this cockeyed world especially
the things that have happened to
me this summer." He rose and held
out his hand to her. "This is goodby
as well as good-night, my child!
You've been mighty swell to me.
Please don't think I don't appre
ciate it I hope you get your fore
man soon because it's getting too
cold for you to stay on the ranch
much longer. By the way, what's
to become of Mrs. Webb?"
"She's coming to Boulder to keep
hou -o for us," was the composed
replv.
"lis?"
"Us. It may have to be for me at
first if you insist on being all
haughty end stubborn; but sooner
' or later it will be for us." She laid
her own small hand in his and
smiled up at him. "I always know
what I want, Tim, and I always
get it. It'll save a lot of time if you
realize that."
He shoved his hands Into his
pockets. "Oddly enough I have a
lew ideas along that line myself.
Even in a negative way. I know
what I don't want, if you get my
meaning; and marriage heads the
list just now. Sorry, BufT. It was
never my intention to turn down
any girl but y au must admit you've
asked for it."
She went quietly toward the
door, her (limy skirts floatin; about
her. Just before she left the room
she turned and waved her hand at
him.
"See you soon In Boulder. Tim
my dear!"

Paragraph from social column In
Boulder paper.
'Miss Buff' Carroll, dauahter
of the celebrated cartoonist, Lance
Carroll, is a iiuest at the Boulder
ado Hotel. To this correspondent
she confided that since business
will keep her lor some time m this
city, she intends renting a ;ur-
msnea apartment. 1 tie cook
housekeeper from her father's
ranch torn act as chaperon, pro
vided so breezy and charmiiiolu
assured jomifl person at. Miss Car
rol! feels the need of tin's conces
sion to Mrs. Grundy. Miss 'Buffs'
business will be placed in the
hands of Mr. Timothy Corliss who.
your correspondent learned, has
lately ocen a guest at the Carroll
Ranch."
Tim. doccedlv at work In his
laboratory, did not see this item
but George Weekes did, and
chuckled. Also he telephoned Buff
at once at the hotel.
"Your opening gun was Im
mensely effective." he told her.
"Tim and I have had two dinner
invitations already on the strength
of if. What next?"
Two things, was the brisk re
ply. "Refuse the invitations and
accept one from mo. I've rented an
apartment and I want Tim to see
it before I do anything to it. It's
pretty awful." She gave the ad
dress, named the time the two
friends would be expected.
"A sort of 'before and after" dem
onstration to Tim, is that the idea?"
"George, your brain does you
credit," she assured him. "That's
the idea exactly. Did Tim tell you
that my intentions are honorable
and far from remote? That, in fact,
I intend to marry him and soon?
This was too much even for
George's nonchalance. Buff heard
him gasp before he answered.
"N-no. Ho didn't tell me. But
I'd back you, Bull, to put through
any plan that pops into your head.
Do you think Tim will let me be
best man? And please don't have
it an evening wedding because I've
put on weight since I bought my
one and only suit of tails, and can I
aflord another. Or if I do, I can't
give you a wedding present. You'U
have to choose."
"Don't bother me with trifles,"
was Miss Carroll's advice. "For
all I know I may have to kidnap
Tim and drive him into Denver to
a Justice of the Peace. I have lots
on my mind, and all of it more im
portant than what vou wear at any
time or place."
He agreed humbly that this
might be so; fuilhei agreed to
produce Tim with or without
handcuffs for dinner on the fol
lowing evening; and hung up the
receiver feeling that he had been
playing about with an electric dy
namo which though stimulating
was not without a certain clement
of danger.
Continued tomorrow.
George Caldwell, former con
struction superintendent at
Louisiana State university, and
his assistant, Eugene Barksdale,
and Kd;:ar N. Jackson, former
business manager at the uni
versity, were indicted in an
other action on ten charges of
diversion of WTA labor and ma
terials to private residences of
Mrs. Iluey P. Long, Leche and
Jackson.
Monroe, l.a Oct. 18. (AP)

the Louisiana, house of represen
tatives, and five other persons
all prominent in Loulsann poli
tics, were indicted today by the

THE LITTLE COOK
Ten-year-old Barbara Jenkins of Denver, Colo., is so adept In creating new recipes and
preparing delicious dishes that two years ago she cooked a breakfast for nine persons, including
Governor and Mrs. Johnson of Colorado.
Using three ranges, Barbara can prepare from seven to ten dishes in 45 minutes enough
to satisfy eight. She has given cooking demonstrations before hundreds of . thousands of ad
mirers. WINNING PLAYER
Frank Kelker, strange as it seems, played 53 games of football before he knew what it
felt like to lose. In seven years (four at Dover high school; three at Western Reserve U.) ha
played in 71 games 61 victories, seven defeats, three ties.
