CHAPTER- XIl They sent for Carrie right of-. ter they brought Mark back to town; that, is, Ma Parmley sent - Newt Gale for her, and Newt drove Carrie in from Rock Creek himself, Newt used the same high bug- gy in which he had brought her over from the stageline only a feed days before and the same curious crowd was on hand to greet them; only the throng was bigger, quieter, Carrie noticed this time, Pale, and obviously nervous, she stepped' down from the bug- gy and swished through the path that opened for her. At the door of Sioux Springs HouseMa was waiting to greet her. With a low little cry, Carrie tushed to Ma's generous arms and a second later was sobbing on her shoulder. "Is—is he hurt badly?" Carrie managed to choke oat at last. It was good to 'cry on somebody's shoulder after the events of the past week. Ma had taken Carrie to the "privacy" of the hotel sit- ting room, and there had let her hove her cry out before seeing Mark. "Well, he can't take in no dance this Saturday night", Ma saki at last, "but he can stand • visitors." She laughed, released Carrie, "Matter of fact, I think he could see one now—the right one." She winked broadly in her warm, hearty manner, led Car- rie, still sniffling, from the room and down the hall. At the first open door, Ma paused, whispered, "Now, you're the doctor," and pushed Carrie gently but firmly inside. A sneeze is Nature's warning! Quick .. . use Mentitcdatum.

When Ed Taylor drove into town an hour after Carrie, Newt was stel holding forth at the livery stable. Minus Newt's cuss words, and unrepeat- able designations of Ashton Oaks, and' condensed to mere es- sentials, the story went 'something like this: The next morning after }Hark Deuel 'had passed' Sioux Springs House and saw Ashton Oaks • helping a girl in white from a bugg„ he received a message. It was mailed from the nearest tele, - graph point and brought in by stage, so its contents were two days old, But it brought the news Mark had wanted. "Emory Ashton man you de- scribe," read the wire, and Gov- ernment Agent Mark Deuel knew at last he was on the trail of a land 'swindler sougist in seven states. Mark had been ordered to find Ashton, alias Oaks, six months earlier, had picked up the trait, lost it. Now, finally, he had found his man again and Wash- ington had confirmed his identi- fieation. With deciveness he shoved the scribbled message in his pock- et, walked down to Newt Gale's livery stable. There Newt had told him "a gentleman by the name of Ashton Oaks" had rented a buggy, all right, the ailglm be- fore, was renting it again today. Events moved fast unexpect- edly, after that, At the land of- fice Illark leagued "Ashton Oaks," or "Emery Aslttoli," was booming fictitious town lot sales, a few jumps ahead of the home- steaders. Then Marls hunted down a settler who identified Oaks as the agent who sold town plots in an eastern settlement ,with elaborately lithographed maps of a town that did not ex- ist. Still later he learned this was the same Oaks who was ad- vertising lots of the "proposed" state capital on every train out of Chicago, OAKS WAS FOOLED Then Carrie eame to Sioux Springs. Before he was ready to close in, Carrie had brought Mark Deuel and Ashton Oaks to- gether in the hotel when Oaks openly had tried to sell lots to Carrie, and Mark, his ehivalry overriding good judgment, had stepped in to stop hint. That was a lucky break for Mark, because Oaks was deceiv- ed. , With his sudden, open inter- ference in the hotel, Mark had thrown Oaks off guard. If ever Oaks guessed Mark's identity, it was probably that a mouthy young homesteader who didn't know his place. That was borne out later when Oaks, at the bar and at the dance, still resentful, attacked Mark, And Mark, bid- ing his time, had seen that Ash- ton Oaks had gone on being re- sentful and unsuspicious. It was Newt Gale who had• pointed matters up. (Newt re. fated this part proudly,• telling how Deuel had taken him into confidence.) Locking up his liv- ery stable at midnight. Newt had seen Ashton Oaks leaving the land office by the rear door and he had told Mark. With thous- ands of dollars in fees passing through the land office every day, Mark realized Ashton Oaks Was also planning open robbery. It was robbery, he knew, the moment Oaks' borne catne' down on hint on , the prairie outside Sioux Springs: Mark stiffened, slowed his horse ever so slightly to stop Oaks, but it was too late. Oaks, probably now suspecting Mark, shot, and Mark tumbled to the hot earth, He raised on his elbow only long enough atter that to see Oaks take his horse and thea pain blotted out his .sight and dark- ness dropped over the priiriu. tt did not lift again until he was back at Sioux Springs House and a„doctor brought over from the stageline had removed the bullet. Then they told him they were sett -ding .for Carrie, "Carrie, Carrie,” he had mum- bled once or twice, and Ma Perm- ley, who had been called in with the first excitement, had told Newt to bring her. Oaks was dead. ;He had aban- doned attempts to open the safe, decided on a daring. daylight A Slow Burninq CIGARETTE PAPERS NONE MCNEE MADE "Glamor Girl" "Ads" Decline Major Change In Methods of Selling Advertised Products' to Public is Predicted Many Major changes in advertis• ing will take place during and fol• )owing the .War, Hiram McCann,' editor and manager of Canadian Baker 'and Confectioner Magazine, told members of the Young Men's Advertising and Sales 011th of TO. route, at a recent meeting. "Major changes,"' he stated,"do not take piece over night. They be- gin as a trend,'and it's up to young,.. men litre you to determine which 3trends should be fostered and which ones should be discouraged." "TELL -ALL" TYPE MORE - POPULAR He stated that many of the changes already brought about are flue to the war, the (Iepresston, and the advertising salesmen. Adver- tising mea have proved they /lave their finger on the pu,bllc pulse, and have developed public rela- tions side by side with employee relations, he pointed out. He predicted that the "tell -all" form of advertising will be used more, because the people want to know: There will be an increased interest in the consumers' think- ing. He stated that the glamor girl type of advertising is on the de- cline, anti: that premiums will be good only where public intelligence is low. MORE SENSIBLE IN CANADA Mr. McCann urged all members to be original in their advertising, "Canada," he said, "will sell more advertising to the United States, as well as other parts of the world. Our own ideas should be given a chance. If we have an intelligent opinion, it will be worth listening ,to." Taxes will be, higher in Canada, ho predicted, with the result tbat a saber buying scheme must be us- ed. There will be less keeping up with the Joneses, less vanity, less style and more comfort, he said. Planning A` Menu Here are a few rules to re- member:— Make a list of what's in Bee- son, and then notice the weather. Colors must vary aswell as flavors — soups to contrast with sauces and never two sauces alike. Hors d'oeuvres' are to whet the appetite — not to satisfy. Balance "light" and "heavy," "sweet" and "dry," and don't err on the rich side. If in doubt, clear 'soup please. Everyone hasn't an "acquired taste" , familiar food can be made quite as interesting as, the less usual items. Don't tackle'- more than, you can do. easily,. Anxiety will spoil not only your own enjoyment, but your guests', too.

Leav- ing his horse at the rear of the building ,,he had walked into the office at noontime with drawn guns, lined the few homestead- ers in the office up against the wall with the agent, while he rifled the safe. Then he had gal- loped off with $12,000, striking due north toward Rock Creek to throw pursuers off his track. In- stead, he had :net Mark Deuel. Five minutes after the holdup a posse was organized, 'spread out, picked up Oaks easily. Fie was overtaken a quarter mile be- yond Mark, .and killed when ha fired on the posse. TWO HOMESTEADERS JOINED They were still talking when Ma Parmley tiptoed up to the door, looked in on Mark and Car- rie half an hour later. . Carrie, beside the bed, was 'holding Mar'k's hand.. Mark was strok- ing her hair, "Remember this morning, at Taylor's?" Mark was smiling, and looking up at Carrie like a schoolboy in mischief "When I said I. might have news to sum- prise you?" "Yes, yes," said Carrie, a bit breathless. • "Well," Mark went on, "here it is," He pulled Carrie closer with his one good arm, till her lips neared his and, her hair was sweet in his eyes; "Carrie," he whispered, "Carrie, I want you always," He kissed her, kissed again and Ma Parmley; never intending for a moment to eavesdrop, flick- ed her eye and tiptoed back down the hall. Carrie buried her head in his arm for a bong moment. Mark pulled her closer. "Mark" Carrie said at last, and there was a bit of a sob in her voice. "I want you, oo—al- ways, wherever we are." "That won't be very far apart," Mark Out in, boyish again. "Won't be far? What do you mean?" Suddenly bal'rie was all Curiosity. "I mean," grinned Mark, "that I got that homestead I was, look- ing for that ,day when I was out to Taylor's." "You—with a homestead?" Carrie was incredulous. "But where 7" "Miss Lane" said Mark Deuel, "next time you look over that homestead 'of yours you'll find your land runs smack into mine, just west of Rock Creek," "Joins—joins mine, But when did you get it?" "I got it," Mark said, "about one minute after you signed up for yours, that day in the land office, I guess I was in love with you right then, Carrie, and didn't know it." "Ooh," said Carrie, "and to think I 'built my soddy with you knowing all the time . " She stopped, breathless, "Well, we'll just build an- other." Mark :grinned. `I've got, to build one to prove up on my land and so do you. We—we could build one right on the line —for—for two of us," he stain. mered. , "And that," said Carhxie, "would be love on the line, wouldn't it, sweetheart?" (THE END) A .

Skirts Shorter But Straighter 1941 Style Retains Fullness by Way of Pleats and Gath- ers Skirts remain 'very short, There la no immediate prospect of them being otherwise, but they are straighter' than they were, but re- tain fullness by way ofpleats or gathered fullneta, New 'York says.

While some women prefer the high line, more do not, and as ready-to-wear dresses aro made for the masses rather than the individual, there is a temdeney to make necklines open at the throat, or else they are round, in which case a heavy necklace con- tributes a bit of flattery.

College Girls More Serious However 1941 Co-ed Still Wants Husband Most of All The college girl of today is more serious than her sister of 10 years ago, likes a nice, thick volume on sociology, but wants a husbaud most of all.

TAKE NOTFIING FOR GRANTED "No proposition ie so self-evident that they won't tear it pieces to see how 'it is put together," said Miss lbIary A. Johnson, assistant dean at the University of Mary- land, in telling how the students used to to concentrate on the class- ics but now stress human prob- lems. As to matrimony, Miss Johnson pointed out: 'The girls freely ad- mit they want marriage. They search less for men of means and more for those with mutual inter- ests." An increasing number of girls, she reported, are "even get- ting married before graduation" and don't hesitate to find jobs to help get a home established. "The old career bubble has ex- ploded," observed Idlss Anastasia Doyle, dean of residence at Stan- ford University. Fluffy `'uffies Style Favorite New 1941 Type Often Extend From Neck to Hemline When you think of ruffles, do you think of girly-girly, or rhumba fashions? Well, the 1041 ruffles are very sophisticated and are design. ed to be worn by the fashion con' scious. The new ruffles are vertical instead of horizontal and are ap• Plied in rippling jabot lines down the front of dinner or daytime dresses from neck to hem• They call attention to the slim line of the skirt, and they create a pretty effect when a coat is worn open. I7MBROIDERIES IN PANEL Some designers like to place the raffle at the back, extending from waistline to hem; this also makes the skint look more slim and mu, row. This season many designers have had the same smart idea about calling attention to the centre front of dresses and the up and down line, especially in dinner dresses. There is charming use of embroid- eries in slim panel at the front and for a lighter, more 'formal effect of neckline to hemline trimming, feathers or flowers are employed, Nature's Best Be • i uty Aid Seven or Eight Hours Sleep Each Night Required by Ad. tilts Beauty and health experts agree that good sleeping habits make -for clear, unlined skin, sparkling eyes, a inol'e scintillating person- ality and a general feeling of well- being. Almost every adult should average between seven and eight hours, of sleep each night, they insist. And these should be hours of deep, really restful sleep. If possible, sleep without a pil- low, Don't be a Spartan . about this, however. The important thing is that you be comfortable. Sheets should. be long enough to stay tuck- ed; All bed covers should be aired every morning, the mattress turn- ed over once a week and the pit- lows, minus their cases, left in the sunshine foran hour or two once a week. This may sound' like a lot of trouble, but surely not -too much to make really comfortable the place where you spend eight hours out of every twenty-four, or; rough - lye about ough-ly,,,about a third of your life, WHY.

CHAMBERS St. Patrick's Day Mena It is true, that St. Patrick's Day does come in the Lenten Season, but although it may not be the gayest of gay parties it still may be a very pleasant affair. As I write this menu I am thinking of a homey family dinner. Cream of Spinach Soup Roast Chicken Riced Potatoes Pear and Cheese Salad Celery, Olives and Gherkins Lime, Marshmallow and Apple Jelly 'St. Patrick's. Day Layer Cake Beverage of Choice „ For your decorations there is a variety of choice. If simplicity is your desire, what is more appro- priate than a pretty white cloth with a shamrock for the table centre and maybe it is blooming with lovely white flowers too, as mine is as 1 write. If you should have a pale green tablecloth, the ehalilrock placed on that makes a very charming table. Now to go on with your' menu. I am as- suming you will for this time use a good brand of canned soup. For that nice plump chicken, if you have never tried, a currant - glaze, by all means do so. Boil during cooking with 'A cup red currant jelly diluted with 3e cup boiling water. About 80 min- utes before chicken is done, spread all over with the diluted currant jelly. When chicken is done place on heated platter and surround with crisp water cress. In preparing your dressing for chicken — use 1,3 cup soft bread crumbs, xt canned corn and 1-3 sausage meat (pressed from its cases) — of course add a little onion, sage and 8 tablespoons chopped celery. For the salad preparation place half pears (tanned) on shredded lettuce. Fill cavities of pears with a white cream cheese tinted green with vegetable colorhhg. Sprinkle over all some chopped parsley. Lime, Marshmallow, Apple, Cherry Jelly Take 1 package of lime jelly powder; pour over it boiling water in the usual way. Have ready 1 cup of freshly made ap- plesauce, sweetened, which has been put through a sieve. When first mixture is lukewarm, add the applesauce and one-half cup nnarshnallows quartered; also one quarter cup maraschino cher- Nies. Chill. 'Serve with whipped cream topped with some chopped green cherries, having saved a little of the cherries prepared for jelly.
