The door was locked. Porhapa there was some one asleep Inside. Bhe knocked, timidly at first; then aa she be came more afraid, ahe knocked loud and hard. Only the hollow echo came back to her. She turned and looked Into the open country. There were the taint tracks ot a wagon road lead ing; away from the station but no sign or any light anywhere. Only the tin algn shone faintly In the pale moonlight as It creaked buck and forth with the wind. Beth knew she was afraid, and she wished with all her pounding heart that she ware back on that warm lighted train, or bettor aUII. at home In Illinois. ' Luckily It wim not a cold night, though tho girl shivered a little, but thnt wna because she . . . well, she Just roll shivery. Porhnps her undo had not got ten her mother's telegram. Woll, no doubt he would como soon. Back and forth she paced on the loose boards of the station plat form. But soon she was tired tired with walking, tired with try ing to Unci a light or a sound that would bring someone to take her to a warm room and friendly faces. Finally sho gnthered her bund les together and stacked them against the door of the depot. Then she sat down to wait. What else was there to doT Slowly, nor tired, worried head dropped forward. Slowly her body slipped down on the bundles and . . . she was asleep. While ahe slept, Beth dreamed about the long ride on tho train. In the dream the train seemed cold and draughty, and she shifted restlessly on her luggage. The moon slipped down the sky and was gono. The night was very black, but still no one came for the traveler. Just as the grey mist of dawn crept Into the far low hills the sound of running horses grow out of tho distance. Louder and more distinct tho clattor foil upon the ears of tho sleeping girl. Sho stirred and sat up.' Was sho still dreaming, and what now dream was this? What was tho nolso? Whoro was she? Then suddenly Both remombcrod. But sho did not stand up, at tho sound of tho horses hurrying to ward hor.

Whatcha tryln' to do, scare her?" Beth stood up now, and her tired eyes widened. Slowly she walked across the platform to ward the boys. "What do you mean by trouble ?" ahe said, her voice low and steady. Ron did not look at his brother, for he was sure he would give him the look that meant ho was "talk ing too much." But heck, sho would know later: so she might ajt well know sooner. "Well, lost night rustlers stole two of Dad's best saddle horses right out of our corrol and ..." ho hurried over the rest, "when Dad went out at tho noise, one of 'em shot him." Beth Jumped and looked around her. What on earth kind of place 'was this?" Tho older boy shoved Hon aside In disgust. "Now you've done It, Chler Ioud Speaker. You've scared her. Don't worry," he turned back to Beth, "he Isn't hurt very bad. Get up on my horse. Ho can take your stun on with him," and ho nodded to the guilty-raced Hon. Beth had heard their names be foro; so she knew this dark one must be Tim. She stepped bravely up to the stirrup, and Tim helped her up to tho saddle. How high above the ground she seemed. She felt dizzy with the suddeness of things. What a strange country she had come to live In. She wanted to know moro about the "trouble," and sho was a llttlo frightened, too.

Inspira tion of trestment Is displayed In this gown of pale green Isms, with Its added crossover touoh employing black velvet "He had dreamed a dream, and he must be pone!" THIS Is a story about a Portu guese boy who had a great curiosity and a great dream. He wanted to find out if he was right In his beliefs about the earth we live on. This boy's father was a weaver, but the hoy himself had no Inter est In cloth making. No, Christopher (that was his name) wanted to be a sailor. He actually made his first voyage when he was fourteen years old. He had a brother who made maps, and while helping him, Christopher got the notion into his head that the earth was round like a ball and not fiat at all. Now, In the country where this curious young fellow lived, the people used many spices, and they bought them from a land far to the East. But, In between the splccland and Christopher, there lived a race of people called Turks. The Turks used to hop out and murder and rob the men who wore traveling through their country to get to the spices. The travelers got pretty tired of this and decided that If the Turks were going to act like that, they'd find another way to get to the East Now you con see that IF the world were really round, anyone could start going West and finally got to the East . . . and never even have to see those unfriendly Turks. Christopher Columbus said, "It CAN be done!" Most people laughed at him and said, "You go sailing out Into the sea In a Western direction and, since the earth is FLAT like a plate, you'll fall off." Christopher just said, "I STILL think it can bo done." But alas, It takes money to buy ships, even little ones, and our horo was a poor man. However, he talked about his idea so much that the peoplo finally HAD to listen to him. At lost the king and qucon of Spain listened too, and they got together ten thou sand dollars, and thoy built three, ships (the largest one wasn't any bigger than one of the Pacific Coast ferry boats.) Thon the brave Columbus sailed out from Spain Into the great un known ocean, headed Westward. For two long months the three little ships tossed through storm and sunlight and darkness. "Behind him lay tho grdy Azores, Behind the gates o Hercules; Before him not the tiho.it of shores. Before him only shoreless seas. The good mate said: "Now must we pray. For lo! the very stars are ' gone. Brave Admiral, speak, what shall I sayt" "Why, say, 'Sail on! sail on! and on!' " Artor a while the sailors be camo frightoned, and they won dored If thoy hadn't been pretty foolish to start on this blind Journey. They told Columbus that he had better start back home. FASHION TIPS By MISCHA Authority on Women's Attire THESIS fashion hints arc for the purposo of aiding the woman who Is sincerely Interested In her personal uppcurance. Authenticity Is the keynote or all suggestions made, and If followed weekly each woman will dorlve true knowledge enabling her to dress woll sccordlng to her own par ticular type. All women who are Interested In being smartly dressed will first make a careful study of their build, and second, of their color ing. In this way they will be en abled to make the most of their good points and will divert atten tion from their less flattering qualities. If the woman Is Inclined toward heaviness, Intelligent uso of lines will do much to create the Illu sion of a slender figure. This use of line holds true for the face ns well as the figure. As one advances In years, dig nity of appearance becomes an outstanding source of pleasurs. Not only Is this true of the Indi vidual concerned but also of her dally social contacts. Maturity contributes a great wealth of charm In Its gift of silver-gray hair. Scrupulously groomed gray hair softens the lines of the face and adds much to tho genera: appearance of the matron. The woman who Is thin may call to her aid the magic worked by the use of certain colors. By avoiding tones which are harsh or Intense and confining herself to tho soft colors, she will give But not Columbus, he believed in his dream, he believed In himself, and he refused to turn back. "Then, pale and wont, he kept his deck. And peered through dark ness. Ah, that night Of all dark niyhts! and then a speck A liqht! A light! A light! A light! It grew, a starlit flay unfurled! It grew tp be ' Time's burst Of dOlTH. He gained a world: he gave that world Its grandest lesson: "On! sail on!" . What a welconft sight was that first glimpse of land. Columbus had proved that he was right He had found land indeed, but It was not the land he sought He had NOT found the Indies, where the spice come from. However, it WAS land, and he had NOT fallen off the earth. The men rowed ashore, and Christopher planted the flag of Spain and kissed the earth. The natives who greeted the explorers were friendly, and Co lumbus and his men gave them little gifts of gay jewelry. The voyagers traveled around the coast thinking they were nearer to the Indies than they really were. They even visited Cuba. One night, just before Christ mas, Columbus was asleep, and the Santa Maria (his boat) was carelessly left In the care of a very young boy, and In the middle of the night the ship went aground and was wrecked. The natives helped to save all the ship's cargo, and the men trans ferred to the other two boats. This made the boats crowded, and some of the men asked Columbus If thoy could remain on the new land. ' Columbus sailed away for Spain and loft a little group of Spaniards behind to start a Spanish colony In the now world. I'm sorry to say, thoy acted very badly toward the peaceful na tives. They treated them cruelly and robbed and beat them. Naturally enough, one day the chiefs colled their warriors and wiped the cruel Spaniards off the face of the earth. , Tho voyage homo was a stormy one, and Columbus and his men feared that they would never reach Spain. Columbus finally did arrive back in Spain and told the king and queen all about his travels. He thought ho had reached some islands near the Indies, when really he had found the new world. Christopher Columbus is the man who said, "It can be done." And then he DID it. A Baby For You?

It is the possessor of slenderizing lines coupled with an individual sleeve which adds much to its stunning appeal. The final note of smart ness is found In Its furry Ascot tie and flsshing buttons with matching buckle. the appearance of having a more plump, curved figure. She should always refrain from black, due to the slenderizing effect it tends to produce. Softly curving and caressing garments rather than the stiffly tailored styles are the most flat tering for the mature, motherly woman. She Is a consistent, un changing type in the realm of women's dress. On many occasions the use of colors will go Infinitely further than the spoken word in the at tainment of the desired effect Generally speaking, the light col ors are attributed as being the possessions of youth. Bequeathed to maturity are the dark tones and deeper rich tones. Primary colors red, yellow, blue. Neutrals gray, black, white. Warm colors yellow, orange, red. Cool colors green, blue, vio let The brunette has a wide range of colors from which to choose, all of which are flattering to her individual type. Yellow is a most suitable choice for the brunette type. If her skin is pale olive or clear and the hair brown or black, eyes brown, gray or blue, red orange or blue are most be coming. Also cream-white, blue green, light or dark tan and dark green. This type should avoid yellow green, blue-purple and pastel tints. If her skin is imperfect, she will do well to refrain from using yellow or bkek, since these shades have a tendency to center attention on the face.

Not that we don't use them the year through, but with our forced post holiday econ omy, even more than ever, they come to our rescue. Garnishes "such little things to mean so much" the slice 'o beet on the tired Virginia Ross dinner plate. the bit of scarlet and green against the drabness of the plat ter of hash. To garnish, as you may know, is to add the artistry to cooking, the adventure to eating. The word "garnishing," if we know our Webster has two meanings. To "dress" or to "garnish" a dish with sprigs of green as garnish ing a roast of beef with parsley ( poor dear oP overworked pars ley) or the less recognized mean ing, but to me, even more Im portant "the embellishing of foods with some other food or for a relish." In this case the gar nish often constitutes part of the meal, as cole slaw in lettuce nests, served on a platter of cold meat cuts. THE handiest, perhaps, of gar nishes is your can of paprika gay and vivid as the scarlet wisp of an evening dress the young daughter wears to the prom it lends a dash of tomor row to the pale potato soup and to the spirits as well. And there is parsley over worked, as I have said, but de pendable, and it does the best it can. But I desire you to go adven turous in a big way; it's a tonic. In truth, toning up the morale and the appetite as well, untwist ing the rainbow over tired meals. Be food conscious, yes, but also light minded: be a dabbler In ef fects. Garnishing Is not a subject of research; it Is a flight of fancy. The first rule to remember, if you will pin me down, is that garnishes are not meant to con ceal the food but to reveal It The garnishment is the frame which sets off the skill of the cook. ' Use contrasts in color. The gar nish for pale foods should be dark, though it should lighten the darkness of steak, roast and game. When edible as I prefer mine to be the contrast in flavor should be just aa marked. SOUPS are often such anemic looking creatures cream soups particularly. A spoonful of whipped cream dusted a gay scar-' let with paprika or tinted with a bit of pure vegetable coloring, lends zestful decoration. For jellied soups, gay lemon shapes dusted with the same friendly paprika ore excellent companions. Clear and vegetable soups take on charm with a spoonful of grated American cheese, chopped parsley and pa prika. Flavor for flavor goes for fish broiled or baked; garnish with lemon slices sprinkled with pa prika and parsley, tiny baked to matoes well seasoned, lemon bas kets filled with mustard mayon naise four teaspoons of prepared mustard folded into a cup of mayonnaise. This, by the way, is a delicious garnish accompani ment for asparagus or artichokes, hot or cold. Fish, too, con use the deep rich color of the ripe olive, a mound of the luscious fellows heated in their own liquor, with a clove of garlic therein (if you don't mind) between the Greek KFAG LO, ANQKLKS . ,:I9 A.M. 4 4-M P.M.

Lettuce, by the way. as a gar nish outside the salad plate, is poor It wilts. Celery is more de praved as a garnish than any thing. There's no spirit left in a celery top, by the time it gets to the table. Parsley will do. But don't expect it to perform parlor tricks. And there's the deep royal purple of grapes for fish. Try it Yellows and reds are grand for light things as well as dark oranges, persimmons and the overworked pineapple. Though peaches and apricots I've found to be just as versatile- BAKED ham Is attractive to the eye and the palate as well when garnished with a cube of mint jelly In the hollow of each. Minted pears or pineapple are chockful of color and flavor notes and tum a Cinderella shoulder of lamb Into a fairy princess. All ws do is add a bit of green color to the hot syrup of pears or pine apple, a few drops of spearmint extract and allow to stand over night Green and red peppers, pimen tos, the simple watercress, all are easily found, inexpensive md add Immeasurably to the devra tlve scheme. Use the simple, col orful things to dress your dishes. Don't be afraid to use gamistea that everyone else hasn't used. Be original, yet don't garnish every thing at the same meat It seems overdressed. Look to the color contrasts in arrangement. Need a vegetable plate be a series of lifeless greens and off whites? Consider a creamy white cauli flower flanked by deep wine-red beets and the pale green of baby lima beans. Your meat platter of creamy wedgewood ware against a French blue linen cloth is lovely enough, but when embellished with a stuffed boned lamb roll, baked apple halves filled with jelly, boiled buttered potato balls and brussels sprouts that is a story indeed. KILLDEER The Killdeer is a bird yon will often see along the seashore. However, sometimes he takes a look inland around the farms. This bird can run very fast and he is the watchful fellow who cries out at any strange sound. He says "Kill-dee, kill dee."

He tried again In 1910 and after a dreadfully hard sled journey reached the Pole In January 1912. Sad to relate Scott never returned from this trip but perished from the cold.
