Since the death of her parents her
home had been made with a rather
tyrannical widowed aunt, whom, she
suspected of being by no means averse
to a second marriage, and Claire had
reason to believe that her entertain-
ment was largely due to her useful-
ness as a decoy. There was nothing
of the flapper to her. She had just
turned twenty-five, was possessed of
sense and character, alluring of face
and with a ripeness of physical
charms rather unusual for her age.
Moreover, she was regarded de df head,
cultured, and g
secial
problems squarely.
But underneath was a burning rage,
this directed not against her kindly
godfather, but the vultures who had
profited by his bequests. She was con-
vinced that a swarm of these had
profited by her own fall; so that when
presently the porter conducted to the
seat facing her's a lean but squarely
built young pian, whom she recogniz-
ed instantly as having seen at the
reading of the will, Claire's emotion
was for the instant homicidal.
The young man who was to occupy
the lower berth of the section ap-
peared, incumbered with a good deal
of hand luggage, which the red clap
had set down indiscriminately, and
the Pullman porter, observing this as
he passed, proceeded to stow these
pieces in more orderly fashion. A
suitcase went under one seat, a sol-
dier's seabag was stuffed under the
other, while a roll -of steamer rugs

protruding was hung from a hook over -

"Thank you," said CIaire. "If you're

"Looks as if we"glanced.,

that he should- have, recognized her

Ilse eyes flashed at her a look of
sudden interest. He resented himself.
"Then you must be Miss. MacNorton.
Mr. Lothrop often talked to me about
you. I am' Stephen Goddard." -
Claire's gray eyes hardened. -Her
godfather had also spoken frequently
to her of Stephen Goddard, whom she
knew to have been• a sort; of protege
for whose scientific education he had
paid. .
"Yes," she answered, "I've heard
him mention you.''
"I owe him everything," said Ste-
phen. "I have delayed the sailing of
a Government vessel to go to his fun-
eral."
"Your duty appears to have been
well rewarded," said Claire.

"If you'll pardon me for saying so,

"So was I," said Claire, bitterly;
"but that is .a matter which I prefer
not to discuss." •
She turned to look out of the win-

Stephen appeared to hesitate for a
moment, then picked up his valise
and walked down the aisle toward the
head of'the train, indifferent to the
curious eyes of such of the para: tigers
as happened to observe his manner of
safeguarding the small piece o lug-

the Rockies, and Green became so
deeply interested in his book that he
did not notice the sound of a slow,
heavy breathing outside.
When; he looked up he saw a huge
grizzly bear standing at the 1 window.
Fortunately, the window was barred
and the door closed, but Green was so
surprised that it took him several
minutes to realize.that he was• not in
immediate danger.
The affair soon took on the aspect
of a siege The bear seemed greatly
infuriated when Green tried to fright-
en; him away by throwing things at
him or by making a noise. At the end
of. an hour Green began to be worried.
His friend Egerton would return
soon, and Egerton carried no gun.
Moreover, he would come from behind
the 'power house and would not see the
bear until he was right on it. Green
could not warn him, since there was
no opening of any kind in the back of
the building. •

connected with the bars of the win-

Some Canning Suggestions.
Devotees of the cold pack method
of canning are firmly convinced that
this is aie only successful method of
preserving fruit and vegetables. But
housekeepers `•who for years have
canned by the open kettle method and
had their fruit keep without spoilage
are 'hard to convince. From my own
experience, I must say I side with the
housekeepers, During the war when
we all did everything as suggested
with the idea that we'd help win the
fight that way, I tried the cold pack
method, but with no better success
with fruit, so far as keeping proper-
ties was concerned, than when I fol-
lowed the old-fashioned method of
canning. For vegetables, however, I
am firmly convinced the cold pack
method is the best end only reliable
way.
The general directions for cold pack
canning are silnple. Cans, tops and
rubbers must be sterilized, that is,
boiled, at least five minutes. Put in
.cold, water and bring to boil; keep in
the hot waiter on back of range until
used. Vegetables should be blanched
,parboiled—then dipped in cold
water; then packed in: the sterilized
cans, until- they justtouch-

And . what rapturous,,adorations,
