Winter days are dyeing days, Old Mother Winter covers the drab and, dreary fields and trees with a radiant' white dress. Just so does Mother; cover up the dull, faded colors in only partly worn garments that have filled the rag -bag, and restore them to a freshness and wearability that helps immensely in reducing the family clothing bill. But the results of Mother's work is more lasting than that of Mother Nature, because she uses the fadeless dyes. In dyeing any kind of material, it is always more practical to use the best dyes. All fabrics dry at least two shades lighter than they appear when they are in the wet dye. It is safe to ,•e a sample first, dry it, and make slakes in the dye after you have de - oiled which color you like best. If you are dyeing a deep shade on a: light colored material, it is best to .13uild up the color, getting all you can ::he first time, and then beginning over again with a fresh dye bath. This will help to prevent crocking. If you are buying new material to IIye, buy the light shades rather than white, for any material that has been dyed will take color more readily the ,second time. Natural linen color makes a wonderful base for old -blue, or rose. *Yellow velours dyed red give a rare orange. The old-fashioned damask •table -cloth with a faded red pattern :.lyed blue will come out blue and plum or violet. It will make lovely sofa pillows. If checked ginghams In tan :end white are dyed blue, they will come from the bath in unusual com- bination of blues that will look pretty for upholstering the wicker porch - ,theirs. Tangled Trails r ..-BY WILLIAM MACLEOD RINE w (Copyright Thomas Allen). CHAPTER XXXV.—(Cont'd.) Kirby tapped gently on the glass. The lights inside flashed on. From one view point he could see almost half the room. He could go to the other side of the blind and see most of the other half. A man sat down in a chair close to the opposite wall, letting his hands fall on the arms. A girl stood in front of him and pointed a paper -knife at his head, holding it as though it were a revolver. The head of the man fell sideways. was on his way downtown when the taxi caught him at Fourteenth and Welton.` The cattleman jumped out from the machine and touched the fat man on the arm as be wee waddling past. "We want you, Hull," he said. 1 A shadow of fear flitted over the shallow eyes of the land agent, but he attempted at once to bluster. "Who wants me? Whadjawant me for?" "I want you—in that cab. The man who saw you in my uncle's room the night he was killed is with me.

Then cut knocked out Cunningham with the butt of yore gun," From Bull's red face the color fled.. He teetered for a moment on the balls of his feet, then sank limply to the cement bench in front of him. He tried to gasp out a denial, but the words would not come. In his throat there was only a dry rattle. He heard, as from a long distance, Lane's voice addressing him. "We've got it on you, Hull. Come through an' come clean." "I—I—I swear to God I didn't do it—didn't kill him," he gasped at last. "Then who did—yore wife?" de- manded Olson. "Neither of us. I—I'11 tell you -all the whole story." "Do you know who did kill him?" Kirby persisted, "I come pretty near knowin', but I didn't see it done." "Whe; then?" i "Yore cousin—James Cunning- ham." (To be continued.)
