ITHE ADVERTISEMENT FAKIR.
Revelstoke Merchants Come to
the Rescue at $20 a Page.
"A city divided against itself cannot
stand," might he taken us nu admirable motto for Revelstoke at the present time. And yet the average
citizen is only human nml in the
business world, each man [nllows his
neighbour round the circle, uml like
cattle or sheep endeavor to break
through a fence instead of going
through a gate because the first une
happens 10 do so, And yet this very
competition in being before the public,
leaves a loop hole for every "fakir'1
that bus a keen eye to business himsell to work in profit. Business men
in Rcve'sloko have hud considerable
experience in the "fakir" fraternity uf
various kinds, uud especially in the
advertisement guide lakh- whu has
visited all our business houses and
drawn their dollars out of them, Who
ciiinot but remember the lodge guide,
livery guide, and lire alarm guide
those worthless bits ol paste board on
which our city men inscribed their
iiiimcs uud whal is more, paid highly
too for it. Now conies the church
guide, purporting to have the ohuroh
behind it. With what result? That
our business men are falling over ono
ii in it 1 ii-1- in getting their names on it,
and away goeB this oily, pluusil le gentleman and gets it printed elsewhere
because he may get it done cheaper
than in the city itself. And now the
injustice uf it is felt and Blight placed
upon local industry. The Mail-Heh.
ALU wishes to point out to its renders
that its weekly pay roll is over 1(1150,
wages alone, and every cent of which
is Rpent in the eity; and yet any
"Tom, Dick or Hurry" who has a
plausible Fnco und un abnormal
amount ot jaw-tackle, cun come along
and take away tlie business men's
dollars and spend them in place* nfnr.
The Board ot^Trade would bo wise in
taking steps to prevent this promiscuous fake advertising which is extremely injurious tothe local industry
who circiilntes its cash in the city of
its homo, and alsu to the business men
themselves who receive not one dollar's
worth of benefit iu return.

"HONI SUIT'..'I'I MAI. V PENSE."
The Inland "sentinel in an issue of
the 21st, makes a rather sweeping assertion in regard to the Revelstoke
Lacrosse Team, Using a somewhat
vague aud purposeless expression in
accusing them of Buffering (rom "cold
feet.'' The Kamloops team should be
taught to remember that an agreement is an agreement and that the
Revelstoke boys were prepared to play
oi. the date at lirst agreed upon,
which was Aug. 8th. Kamloops then
wrote back stating that owing to tin-
fact ot their having played Enderby
the week before (hey could not afford
the expense, and wished to put the
game off to some future date, writing
up again suggesting to play on the
23id. It is passing strange why "expense" wasn't thought ot iu the first
instance! Now. our boys art- certainly
not going to dance to anybody's piping, i.-! even Kamloops, and simply
because our boys could not lull in
with the Kami,, ps boys' wishes, thoy
are accused ol funk or sume such
disease unknown up litre. Kamloops
should have the sense to know that it
:-: ■ aii easy matter to get the boys
together on theshortest notice, at any
time, tspecially us I iy urt having
two r three days off for the Labor
Day celel.ration, thus it was impossible
: gel away on the other occasion.
Thi- was the position and it looks
cert only as if there was more behind
the -,-!.,- than the audience know ,,f.
No doubt knowing the reputation ol
our boys in tlie lield, the Kamloops
boys retro searching tor good men or
else they would have been ready on
the first - ision But tbe fact remains that ir boys will play anyone,
anywhi n I they want lair treatment, ...: thil case the "cold leet"

Valencia's Skeletons Disclose
Awful Story-Slowly Starved
to Death in a Cave,
Victoria, Auk. 21.—An undamaged
life boat from the wrecki"! stenm.-r
Valencin.togeilierwitli eight skeleton?,
have been int,nd in a cava on llio west
emist, near Ciirmannli, and tills the
story of the must hairowing tragedy
in connection with the terrible disaster
of January lust. So .far as cm be
judged at present the occupant- ,,i tlio
lile boat hud reached what thev considered apparent safety nml died from
starvation and exposure while awaiting succour which never reached them
because ot the inadequate search of the
coastline, The oave is a veritable
mantrap, with n large rock at its
mouth, over whioh the boat must
have been hurled as there isn't runin
enough on either side ol the rock to
get the boat out again when the water
is sin,it.(It,
Intact and but little damaged by
tlie bombardment ol angry Bens, but
with lis dry paint oruukiug and scams
beginning to yawn, n lifeboat ot the
Valencia is lying in a wind-worn cave,
In the forbidding cliffs not far from
Ciipe Ciininiiiiili, mute evidence that
it at least nl the Inst steamer's equipment weathered the nt,-i-in which sang
the requiem ol bo many souls. And
with the boat, eight bli-anliing skeletons as silently attest that in it Ihey
found a way to apparent safely Ibis
number, il not nmre, of the passengers
and crew. The miiBt terrible of all
lhe dramatio anti-climaxes of last
January's great tragedy ol the son. is
the story now told in these grim items
of circumstantial evidence that the
boat and those who left the wreck in
her, trusting their lives to this trail
plaything of the storm, succeeded in
reaching a seeming haven, after their
cruel sufferings, there to endure nn
agony ol waiting, and after that waiting, death, '.tecause of inadequate
search of the precipitous shores.
The news of this awful sequel of
January's unforgettable disaster is told
in telegrams from Carmanah point
lighthouse and telegraph station today, which state that a pontoon, as
well, escaped the general destruction
and now decorates the wave-worn
lloor ol still another cavern, conveniently accessible Irom the sea. Whether or not humani remains proclaim a
parallel tragedy in connection with
this recovered pontoon remains to lie
disclosed by investigations that an-
now going on. The pontoon, Carmanah despatches report, is easily
recoverable, but it will be rather more
difficult to secure the boat. One of
the caves, that which has proven the
tomb ol the boat party, presents a
conspicuous entrance to the sea front,
the reef being some fifty feet high,
while tbe lofty chamber measures two
hundred feet long. The boat, according to the Indians, is very little damaged. The same observant Indiana
counted the eight skeletons in the
cave with the undamaged boat, and
so reported yesterday to Light-keeper
Daykin of Carmanah, The latter
official's two sons were recently around
and over the wreck of the lost steamer
and say that her engineB could now be
vory conveniently recovered, together
with other valuable debris.
The finding of this boat from the
Valencia removes the mystery that
until now has impenetrably surrounded the fate of lifeboat number 2,
which it undoubtedly is. During the
examination of witnesses at the Canadian official inquiry conducted by
Captain James Guudin, resident agent
of the marine department, it was made
very distinct and positive that lifeboat
number 2 got safely away from the
breaking ruin of the steamer and was
seen to work some distance from the
vessel, making fair headway seaward
After much cross examination it
was lound impossible to obtain information and the inquiry closed,
leaving the fate of the lifeboat number
2 one of the conspicuous mysteries ot
the calamity.

How to Take Care of the Nose and Ears
By Dr. Emma E. Walker.
Copyright, 1J05, by A. t, larora & Co.
Tiii-; ineuin lorma an impoilunt
pari of Uie exprebblon of the
lace. Tbe muscles of the moutn
are, like those ot tbe rest ol lhe
body, molded by babit. The habit of
amiability und contentment gives to
the mouth Its greatest charm. No
artificial tint ever added beauty to this
feature. Like ull other artifices, it cun
always be detected, and makes the lace
coarse, lt also makes tho mouth
appear broader, and Injures tho tox-
ture of the lips.
The bad habit that so many girls
have of biting their lips to mako
them red thickens them ond dries
them so that they become chapped
nnd colorless and lose their delicate
curves.
A DAINTY CREAM
The formula for a dainty cream to
use on dry and cracked V • Is: Almond oil, one-eighth pound; while
wux, one-hall ounce; spermaceti, one-
half ounce; oil of almonds, bitter, une-
twelfth drachm; oil of geranium, one-
eighth drachm, mono Ingriulenio aro
lo be well mixed, and llio cream may
be applied Whenever luu lips require
lu , .
Nothing adds moro to tbe beauty of
lhe niouir. luun w-ul-tui.-u-tur metu.
Their good -uuuiuuu bus much to da
with lue state of lhe guueiul health,
(or wilhoul tuoiougli iniisilcuiiuii ot
food pel-lent heullh Is Impossible, The
cure uf the uan should begin wiib
the drat set
The teeth should be examined not
1;ss than twice a year by a competent
dentist. . .
They should he washed with lukewarm waler beloru brinkiast, aflor
each meal a. d before retiring. There
are su many excellent demllrlces that
It le hard to decide which Is best. It
Is a guoo plan to usk your dentist's
advice, as he Is well acquainted with
the partleulur cnuriicter ol yuur teeth.
I'l'icipltiiti-d cbulk Is always good,
and may be rubbed about the gums
alter iiitlng anything mid und also
belore retiring. It will relieve thc sensitiveness of the teeth which Is su common al tho margin of the gums.
An anils, pile le ulso Indispensable. It
helps to presi-rvo tho teeth and alsu
keeps the breath sweet. 1'eroxldo of
hydrogen Is a guud uiitlscpiio mouth
Wash, lt nl:-,, blenches yellow leelb anil
Mini,m, Ihem. iniiio- ulchol is a

Powdered pumice fitune used unco In u
while Is excellent for removing slums.
An extremely Impormnt Item In the
fare of (hn (ei-th Is (lie ue of dentiil
floss nlwnys after emlng. This, to-
gothor with a soft orange wood or
quill toothpick, will remove every particle of food from the teeth.
I'se a brush wiih bristles that are
neither tou still nor too soft, and brush
the teeth on all sides, tuu Inside as
well as the outside, und do not neglect
the flat crowns of lue bank leeth, for
Ihere aro many crevices mere where
food muy lodge, 'ihe brush is also useful In Eliminating tne emulation uf the
gums, bui it i,,-,.-,is gentle bundling, lt
Is belter to brush tlie teeth downward
from tbe gums than crossiug along lho
line of the gums.
A mouthful of milk of magnesia taken

IN THE DAYS when our grandmothers were young, beauty specialists
with fountains of youth In thc way
of skin creams and lotions were not
so common, and yet most of us have
heard that grandmother's skin waa
soft und rosy when she was a girl, and
we have also seen with our own
eyes many a grandmother of today
whose skin was us fresh und smooth
as that of hei daughter, in fact more
BO,
It was my good fortune to meet one
of these dear old ladies very recently
—she wua C2 years old, although
when looking at the clear eyes and
fresh, well-preserved skin it wau hard
to believe it.
"How did you do It?" I gained courage to usk, thinking 1 might hnd out
ubout some wonderful cream or lotion
that would be an eternal boon to myself and others. Imagine my surprise
when sue told me that she nud never
applied any manufuctui'ed cosmetic or
cream of uny kind'to her skin, but
hud ulways used the simplest of beau-
tiflers, which nature provides, and
which are within the reach of every
woman, rich or poor.
TOOK A SIMPLE REMEDY
Twice a year at least, usually in the
spring and fall, she got her blood and
general system in order by taking
tunic simple remedy.
At the hrsi rising of the sap in t-he
trees, and beture Ue hrst auack of
spring fever overtakes you, take a
course of sassa'irus tea. if you live in
the country, you can go out and get it
yourself; and if hot, you can usually
find a street peddler with bunches of
sassafras bark for sule. Steep il in boiling water just as yuu would make any
other tea, and for about a week or ten
days drink copiously of this.
Another spring beautitier to he taken
internally is the old-fashioned sulphur
and molasses. Not very pleasant to take?
Oh, no! But think how it will brighten
your eyes and clear up your complexion. Mix It in the proportion of half a
cup of sulnhur to one of molasses, and
take a table-spoonful three times a day
for three days; then stop for thro days.
And so on until you have taken it nine
days.
At the same time, you can clear the
complexion even more by rubbing the
face over just before washing it with a
mixture of sulphur nnd buttermilk
Buttermilk was another old-fashioned
beautitier upon which our grandmothers
relied, They used it generously at the
first appearance of spring weather, when
the sun's rays were hot enough to bring
freckles and sunburn In their train.
Buttermilk for the skin
There is probably no better emollient
for the skin than buttermilk, and it
leaves the skin soft and white, with a
fresh sweet odor, superior to any manufactured perfume. If you sunburn and
tan and are inclined to freckle, the .buttermilk acts as a bleach. It also stlmu-
ates the pores and acts as a corrective
for most of the minor imperfections to
which the skin Is prone. It should, however, never be applied to the face with
a massage movement, but with smart
little pats, until every portion of the
lace has been covered; and let it dry
en the skin, as it will leave no trace of
oiliness. It may be used generously on
the neck and arms, which should be
bathed first. Dry me skin by patting
(not rubbing) with a soft towel, and a
delicious feeling of softness will follow.
fi your sKin appears sallow iu the
Bpring, try another old-time remedy-
dandelion tea. This seems to act directly on (he liver, and will make salluw-
ness and pimples soon disappear. Make
a tea of the roots and leaves, and take
lt for about two weeks at a timt.
There are many more of these simple
beautiflers, and in the pursuit of health
and beauty I advise you to look up some
old ladieB of your acquaintance, wno can
no doubt impart some very useful
knowledge on the subject
WE HEAR a great deal about acquiring health and good looks
by leading a simple life. Most
of us feel that this Is an absolute Impossibility In our homes, Some
of us try going away In search of the
much-needed rest from business and social duties, but often get "out of the
frying pan into the fire," and find that
there are annoyances contingent to
traveling and strange hotels that are
equal to the ones we left home to avoid.
Not only that, there Is generally a lot
of expense attached to this traveling
around in pursuit of health and rest,
and this debars many front this method.
I know of one woman who resolved to
lead a simple, normal, health-giving life
right in her own home. She persevered
and accomplished her ouject-a rest cure
that was successful and worth knowing
about.
She chose a room at the top of the
hoiifc, which had a southern exposure'.
She Installed a simple metal bed, a good-
sized rug of quiet design, one or two
pictures of which she was very fond, a
couple of chairs, a few books containing
helpful thoughts and a pair of dumbbells. She denied herself to all callers,
and did not even see the members of her
family.
Upon arising she drank a glass of
pure water—she drank ten glasses
during the day-then practiced deep
breathing for fivo minutes. For ten
minutes she worked with the dumbbells. She next took a cold sponjro
bath, rubbing the flesh briskly with a
Turkish towel until It was warm and
glowing. If reaction did not como
quickly, she used rough mittens.
She then dressed quickly uud went
for an early morning walk, while the
day was fresh. Upon her return sho
ate a light breakfast, always starting
it with either orange or grape juice.
The greater part of the morning was
spent in reading, or doing some very
light hand sewing that would not
overtax either mind or boay.
Whenever possible she s:.t so the
sunshine poured ln on her, frequently
letting her hair fall loosely so that
its rays could penetrate to tho scalp.
At noon she ate a simple meal, limited
to three articles of food, none of
which was rich or greasy.
The afternoon was quietly spent,
with another brisk walk, even though
the weather w^s stormy.
The evening meal was always simple.
After a short time spent in reading a
little time was devoted to scalp maa-
sage. Then the hair was carefully
biuehed uud comiouauiy arranged tor
the night. So that the skin shuuld be
kept fresh and soft-iooklng, a good
facial cream was applied; and by that
time she was ready fur u good night's
rest*
Uf course, there were moments of discouragement, but she was a resolute little body, and tried to Iti no troubles of
body or mind intrude. At the end of a
few weeks she was like a new being;
friends and family were no more denied
her society, and the took a happy, normal interest in life.
•She -still keeps her room, and will tell
you with a laughing face that at the
first sign of the old nervous, restless,
worn-cut feeling she expects to flee to
this well-tried . lend.
Possihlv If more women would adopt
this simple method of regaining lost
health and beauty, the number of haggard, nervous - looking countenances
which are now seen would diminish.

drinking in tho mystic beauty of tho

dim, stretched iheir arc beneath the
Dipper. The air, soft as the dead
I,-uves of spring, fanned his cheek,
Ily and by the moon, like a red lire
at sen, lifted itself from the waves.
Thorpe made his wny to the stern,
beyond the square deck house, where
he intended to lean on the rail iu
silent contemplation of the moon-
path.
lle found nnolher before him, Phil,
the little cripple, was peering into
the wonderful east, its light in his
eyes. He did not look at Thorpe
when the latter approached, but
seemed aware of his presence, for he
moved swiftly to give room.
"It is very boautiful; isn't it,
Phil?" said Thorpe alter a moment.
'■ll is tho Heart Song of the Sen,"
refilled the cripple In u hushed voice.
Thorpe looked down surprised.
"Who told you that?" he asked.
Hut ili,, cripple, repeating tho
words of a chance preacher, could
explain himself no farther. In a dim
wny the ready-made phrase had express,,,! the smothered poetic craving
of his heart,—the belief that the sea,

Songs, the Song which is.most beautiful.
"The Heart Song of the Sea," he
repeated gropingly. "I don'l know
... 1 play it," and he made the
motion of drawing a bow across
strings," very still and low." And
this was all Thorpe's question could
elicit.
Thorpe fell silent in the spell of
the night, and pondered over the
chalices of life which hud vast on the
sin,res of lie- deep as driftwood tlie

uy anu oeiongeu io iuornson « umy,
but the young man had had the fore-
sight to purchase the land lying on;
the deep water side of the bay. He
therefore anticipated no trouble in
unloading; for while Morrison &
Daly owned the pier itself, the land,
on which it abutted belonged to him.
From the arms of the bay he could
make oul. a dozen figures standing
near the end of the wharf. When, •
witii propeller reversed, the Pole
Star bore slowly down towards her 1
moorings, Thorpe recognized Dyer at
the head of eight or ten woodsmen.
The sight of liadwuy's old scaler
somehow filled him with a quiet but
dangerous anger, especially since that
official, on whom rested a portion at
least ot the responsibility ot the
jobber's failure, was now found in
the employ of thc very company
which had attempted that failure. It
looked suspicious.
"Catch this line!" sung out the'
mate, hurling the coil ot a handline
on the wharf. '!
No one moved, and the little rope,
after a moment, slid overboard with
a splash.
The captain, with a curse, signalled
full speed astern.
"Captain Morse!" cried Dyer, step-,
ping forward. "My orders are that
you are to land here nothing but
M.&D. merchandise."
"I hnve a right to land," answered Thorpe. "The shore belongs to
me."
"Tliis dock doesn't," retorted thc
other sharply, "and you can't set
fool on her,"
"Vou have no legal status. You
had no business building in thc first
place—" began Thorpe, and then
stopped wilh a choke of anger at the
futility of arguing legality in such a
case.
The men had gathered intorestedly
in the waist of the ship, cool, imparl inl, severely critical. The vessel,1
gathering sjK'cd astern, but not yet;
obeying her reversed helm, swung
her bow in towards the dock. Thorpe,
ran swiftly forward, and during the
instant of rubbing contact, leaped.
He alighted squarely upon his feet. I
Without an instant's hesitation, hot
with angry energy at finding his
enemy within reach of his hand, he
rushed on Dyor. and with one full,
clean in-blow stretched him stunned
on the dock. For a moment there
was a pause of astonishment. Then
llie woodsmen closed upon him.
During that instant Thorpe had
become possessed of a weapon, It
came hurling through the air from,
above to fall at his feet. Shearer,
willi the cool calculation of the pioneer whom no excitement can distract from the main issue, had seen
Hint il would lie impossible to follow his chief, and so had dono the
next best thing,—thrown him a heavy
iron belaying pin.
Thorpe was activo, alert, and
Strong, Tlie men could come at him
only in fronl. As offset, he could
not give ground, even for one step.
Still, in the hands of a powerful man
the belaying.pin is liy no means a
despicable weapon. Thorpe hit with
all his strength and quickness. He
wns conscious once of being on tlie
point of defeat. When he bad cleared a little space for himself. Then
ihe men were on him again more savagely lhnn ever. One fellow even
succeeded in hiding him a glancing
blow on the shoulder.
Then came a sudden crash. Thorpe
wns nearly thrown from his feet. The
next instant u score of yelling men
leaped behind and all around him.
There ensued a moment's scuffle, the
sound of dull blows; and the dock
was clear,',! oi all bin Dyer and three
othel's who were, like himself, unconscious. 'I'he captain, yielding t,,
lh,- excitement, had run ins prow
plump against the wharf.

lows won't bother us any more for;
the present, I think; but it pays to!

In Marquette, Thorpo arranged tor;
the cashing oi his timo checks aud'
orders; bought lumber at the mills; 1
talked contract with old Harvey, tho'
mill-owner and prospective buyer of
the young man's cut; and engaged
four ax-men whom ho found loafiag-
about, waiting for the season to i
open.
When he returned to tho bay hei
found the warehouse complete except
for the roofs and gables. Those,
with their reinforcement of tar-pa-
por, were nailed on in short order.
Shearer and Andrews, the surveyor,
wore scouting up the river,
"No trouble from above, boys?"!
asked Thorpe.
"Nary trouble," they replied.
The warehouse was secured by padlocks, thc wagou loaded with the
tent and the necessaries of life and
work, Early in the morning the
littlo procession—laughing, joking,
skylarking wilh (he high spirits of
men in the woods—took its way up
tho river-trail. Late that evening,
tired, but still inclined to mischiof,
Ihey came to the fust dam, whore
Shearer and Andrews met them,
"How do you like it, Tim?" uslosl
Thorpe that evening.
"She's all right," replied the riv-
ei'inan with emphasis; which, for
him, was putting it strong.
At noon of the following day the
party arrived at tho second dam.
Hero Shearer had decided to. build
the permanent camp. Injin Charley
was constructing one of his ondless
series of birch-hark canoes, Later
he would puddle tho whole string to
Marquette, where he would sell tbem
to a hardware dealer for two dollars and a half apiece.
To Thorpe, whu had walked ou
ahead with his foreman, it seemed
that he had never been nwuy. There
was the knoll; tlio rude camp with
thc deer hides; tlie venison hanging
suspended from the pole; Ihe endless
broil and tumult of tho clear north-
country stream: the yellow glow-
over the hill opposite. Yet he had
gone a nearly penniless adventurer;
he returned at tile hend of an enterprise.
Injin Charley looked up and gruii-.
ted us Thorpe approached.
"How nre you, Charley?" greeted
Thorpe reticently.
"You gettuin pine? Good!" replied Charley in the same tone.
That was all; I'or strong men never
talk freely of what is in their hearts.
There is no need; they understand.
CHAPTER XXXI.
Two months passed away. Winter
set in. The camp was built and in-,
habited, Routine had established,
itself, and all was going well.
Tlie first move of the M.&D. Com-]
pany had been one of conciliation, i
Thorpe wns approached by Hie walking-boss ol tlie camps up-river. Tile j
man made no reference lo or excuse!
for what had occurred, nor did he
pretend to any hypocritical friendship for tlie younger firm, His proposition waa entirely one of mutual;
advantage. Tlie Company had gone
to considerable expense in constructing the pier of stone cribs. It would
bo impossible for the steamer to
land at any other point. Thorpe had
undisputed possession of the shore,
but the Company could as indisputably remove the dock. Let it stay
where ii was Holh companies could
then use it for their mutual convenience.
'I'm this Thorpe agreed. Haker, the i
walking-boss, tried to get him to
sign a contract to that effect. Thorpe
refused.
"Leave your dock whoro it is and]
use it when you want to," said he. j
"I'll agree not io interfere as long
as you people behave yourselves."
The actual logging was opening up
well. Holh Shearer and Thorpe
agreed that it would not do to be
too ambitious the lirst year. They
set about clearing their banking
ground about a half mile below the
lirst dam; und during the six weeks
before snow-fall cut three short
roads if half a mile each. Approxi-
raatelv two million feet would be put
in iron, these roads—which could be
extended in years to come — while
another million could he travoyed
directly to ihe landing from its Immediate vicinity

Thorpo, who had been too busy to
remember Phil's violin,—although ne
noticed, as ho did every other detail
of the camp, the cripple's industry,
and the precision with which he performed his duties,—strolled over and
looked through the window. A
dance was in progress. The men
were waltzing, whirling solemnly-
round and round, gripping firmly
each other's loose sleeves just above
the elbow. At every third step of
the waltz they Stamped one foot.
Perched on a cracker box sat Phil.
His head was thrust forward almost
aggressively over his instrument, and
his eyes glared at the dancing men
with tho old wolf-like gleam. As he
played, Ilo drew tho bow across with
a swift jerk, thrust it back witn another, threw his shoulders from one
side to the other in abrupt time to
the music. j\nd Ihe music! Thorpe
dnconseiously shuddered; then sighed
in pity. It was atrocious. It was
not even in tune. Two out of three
of the notes wore eithei- sharp or
Ilal, not so flagrantly as to produce absolute disharmony, but just
enough to sot the teeth on edge. .Ind
the rendition was as colorless as
that of a poor hand-organ.
The performer seemed to grind out!
his fearful slulf with a fierce delight,
In which appoarod Utile of the acs-i
Ihetic pleasure of the artist. Thorpe
was at tt loss to define it.
"Poor Phil," he said to himself.
"He has the musical soul without
even the musical ear!"
Next dny, while passing out of
tho cook camp he addressed one of;
lhe men:
"Woll, Filly," ho inquired, "how
do you liko your liddler?"
"All right!" replied Hilly with emphasis. "She's got some go to her."
In the woods tin; work proceeded
finely. (From the travoy sledges and
the short roads a constant stream
oi* logs emptied itsolt on the bank.
There long parallel skid ways liiul
been laid the whole width of the
river valley. Each log us it came
wns dragged across those monster
andirons and rolled to the bank of
tlie river. The cant-hook men dug
Iheir implements into the rough
bark, leaned, lifted, or clung to Hie
projecting stocks until slowly the
log moved, rolling wilh gradually
increasing moment um. Then they
attacked il with fury lest Hie momentum be lost. Whenever it began
lo deviate from the straight rolling
necessary lo keep it on Hie centre
of Ihe skids, one of tho workers
thrust the shoe of his cnut-liook under one end of lhe log. That en,I
promptly stopped: tho other, still
rolling, soon caught up: and lho log
moved on evenly, ns was lilting.
Al Hu, end of the rollwny lhe log
collided wilh othor Iocs nnd stopped
with the lmpncl of on,- bowling ball
against another. Tlie men knew Unit!
being caught, bolvv-en Hie Iwo meant |
death or crippling Ior life. Nevertheless they escaped frum tlie nar-j
rowing interval at the latest possible moment, for it is easier to koep
a log rolling than to start it.
Then other men piled them by
means ol long steel chains and horses, jusl as they would have skidded
thick as a two-storey nousc is can
The work is dangerous. A saw log
containing six hundred board feet
weighs about one ton. This is thc
weight of an ordinary iron saie.
When one of them rolls or falls from
even a moderate height, its iorco is
irresistible. Hut when twenty or
thirty cascade down the bold front
of a skidway, carrying a man or so
with them, tho affair becomes a
catastrophe.
Thorpe's men, however, were all
old-timers, and nothing of the sort
occurred. At first it made him
catch his breath to see the apparent
chances they took; but after a little
ho perceived that seeming luck was
in reality a coolness of judgment and
a long experience in tho peculiar
ways ol tho most erratic of inanimate cussedness—the pine log. The
banks grew daily. Everybody was
sale and sound.
Tin; young lumberman had sonsa
enough lo know that, while n crew
such ns his is supremely effective, lt j
requires careful handling to keep it
good-humored and willing. He knew j
every man liy his first naino, and
each day made it a point to talk j
with him for a moment or so. The
subject was invariably some phase of
tho work. Thorpe never pormitteJj
himself the familiarity ol introducing any other topic. By this course
lie preserved the nice balance between
too great reserve, which chills the
lumber-jack's rather independent enthusiasm, anil the too great familiarity, which loses his respect. He
never replied directly to an objection
or a request, hut listened to it non-
coiuiniltally; and later, without explanation or reasoning, acted as his
judgment dictated. Even Shearer,
with whom he was in most intimate
contact, respected this trait in him.
Gradually ho came to feel that he
fectly good, it generally is, in a
well-conducted camp, but tho lumberjack is a great hand to growl, and
he usually begins with his lood.
Thorpe listened to his vague objections in silence.
"All right," ho remarked simply.
Next day he touched the uiau on
the shoulder just as he was starting
to work.
"Step into the olliee und get your
time," said he.
"What's the matter?" uskod Ibe
mnn.
"1 don't need you any longor."
Tho two entered the little offlce.
Thorpo looked through the ledger
and van hook, and finally handed the
man his slip.
"Where do I get this?" asked the
teamster, looking ut it uncertainly,
"At the bank in Marquette," replied Thorpe wilhout glancing around.
"Have I got to go 'way up to
Marquette?"
"Certainly," replied Thorpe briefly.
"Who's going to pay my laio
south?"
"You are. You can get work at
Marqiietle."
"That ain't a fair shake,"
"I'll have no growlers in this
j camp," said Thorpe wilh decision.
"Hy God!" cried (lie man, "you
damnod "
"You gel oul of here!" cried
Thorpo with a concentrated blaze
ol* energelic passion that made the
fellow step buck.
"I ain't going to get on the wrong
side of the law by I'oolin' with Ihis
offlce," cried tlie other at the door,
"bul if I li:i,I you outside for a
minute—"

Things to Notice This Week
IF you ko for a walk In llio woods
you are almost .sure to llnU some
aiiis' ni'st.4. Thoy look like heaps
of line needles ami littlo bits of leaves
inul twigs. On a sunny day you will
often sei* long columns of ants marching home wiih little pirn's of twig to
add to tin- walls of their house,
liomotlmes they carry leaves a good
dual bigger than themselves.
Ants' Cave of the Babies,
A great number of ants live in ono
nest, ami sume nf ihem spend their
lime eul lee tint;' food, while others
look after Un- babies.
The babies are shut up in littlo
white silk bags called cocoons, and
mi hot days their nurses bring them
nut hiln the sun. If vuu ni^ium
them they will very -quickly piek uji
Mn- babies and carry Ihem buck to
their nursery, under the heap of
leaves.
A Horse's Toes.
How many toes has a horso on ench
foot? You don'l know. I thought
nu wouldn't! He has only one, nnd
•hut Is the big, round hoof, on to
which his Bhoe Is nailed. The donkey
*t anothor animal lhat has only uno

Cows and sheep have four toes on
each foot, while pussy has live on

use them, hut doggie can't,
A Robin That Reasoned.
A robin's nest was illleil wilh ydung

THE old mushroom shape is buck again, in

Sume of them are trimmed in n wny simjile

around the crown, plenty or theni used so that
the effect of mussing is got, perhaps accentuated u
little ni one side, On the deep bandeau, ribbon is
looped—the soft mcssaline or louisiue ribbon which
lends itself to such artistic treatments.
A number of curious combinations of color uro

yet so adroitly planned that the effect is only strikingly good.

A new hat for 10-year-old girls is a "beret"

band of light-colored ribbon covers the frame band
nnd is caught with n frill on the left side toward
the front. Scotch plaid colors nre very apt to figure here. E. D.' Paris, '00."
Embroidery in Vogue
EJIBROlDElCl' plays a big part in the summer girl's accessories, decorating everything, from her linen pumps to ber gloves
and bcorf, to sny nothing of parasol and
dross, and perhaps her long coot as well.
Natural-color straws are having a great vogue,
so grout that a lot of odd shades have been drugged
in to give greater variety. Burnt straw is one of
them—just a little deeper ami richer than the butter color, which heads the list. Leghorns in this
curious burnt tone tire a mighty interesting version
of the straw.
