The Michigan Kid by Rex Beach SYNOPSIS Jimmjr Rowan wat hopeleitly in love with Rose Morrii, the prettiest girl in Dover, Michigan. Of course, that was years ago, in early school ^ys . . . but it was hopeless for Jimmy because he was just "that Ro- wan kid," desperately poor, while Rose's family was rich. While Jimmy was working his way through col- lege, Rose Morris moved away and tlie home sold for barely enough to pay the mortgage . . . Jimmy vowed to himself he'd get rich . . . and find Kose. Easier vowed than done and ycare passed before Jim Rovs-an fin- ally landed in the Klondiite . . . there to gain wide reputation as a gambler, known as "The Michigan Kid." . . . An ucly story of a 20 hour card game with Col. Campbell, enyiaetrr, «rith stakes no limit . . . and suicide ef Campbell at the end . . . caused The Michigan Kid to sell hit salooi. and start "out." . . , At Nome, Rowan came upon a meeting of Michigan folks scheduled so he attended. As an old man was leaving the meeting Jim started, leaned forward, his eyes fixed upon the stranger's bearded clieek • . . Now go on with the story. CHAPTER IV "Mr.s. Morris died several years â- BO." "I'm sorry. 1 haven't heard from home in ages." There was a moment of silence, then with averted eyes and in a tone of indifference the young-er man .said, "Your daughter Kose must be a woman now."

We've about reached the end of our rope. I saw the notice of that Michigan meeting and I thought I might find somebody there." "You did," said Kowan. When Morris looked at him uncomprehend- inply, he explained : "You found me." "Oh, my boy! You don't under- stand â€" " "I understand perfectly. You want a working paitner and you'll give him an interest. All right, how much of an interest do I get?" "Why, I was going to offer a half "That's too iiiiich, just for a pick and shovel stiff.

You've been here two years and you haven't struck pay; I spent five years on the Yukon and never made a dollar out of mining. I left to look for .something. Well, I've found it." The next morning Jim Rowan put a pack on his back and hit the trail. It wa.s .be first time in nearly five years that he had felt pack straps, for The Michigan Kid had taken his exercise by proxy, and ho was dis- mayed to discover how soft and how short of breath he had become. He felt a pang when he heard the siren of his steamer giving the signal to weigh anchor, for he was heartily sick of the norlhland imd hungry for the world outside. He had worked long for thia hour; he fell now as if some one had offered him a diink then snatched it away. And the worst of it all wa.s that he had no douhl made a fnol of him- self!

Crowded Modern Life But today? ''Gosh, I have too much trouble trying to keep track of one day's dates, let alone jotting down au account of them," flashed a college girl with a smile. "It would be kind of nice to look back over the year's happenings," said one girl. "I've started a diary several fimos, but after a week or two I drop- ped It. Too much trouble." Nearly all the people interviewed had at one time In their life under- taken the task, but had later aban- doned it.

Hassock Is Back In Home Favor Upholstery Materials Range From Satin to Leather; Fur Cloth Approved The old-tashioned hassock Is coming back into the home furnishing pic- ture, and Is available In many differ- ent shapes. In the bedroom it is placed at the foot of the bed and usually covered with the same colored mater- ial as the spreads or draperies. It may have rows and rows of fringe banging to the floor. Some are up- holstered In satin materials and oth- ers In leather. They are very conven- ient and satisfactory for game rooms, too, and for other informal rooms where the family usually gathers.

He knew without asking that Rose shar- ed all of her father's scruples and prejudices. Lucky for him that he had buried The Michigan Kid. Kose had bloomed into exactly the sort of woman that Jim had expect- ed, thereby disproving the cynical statement that our realizations never equal our anticipations. She was a little more fragile than he had pic- tured her, but the reason for that was evident and it wrung his heart, Sacrifice Ten minute.t after he .saw her, heard her voice, looked into her eyes, he had ceased all regrets about that departed steamship.

Brighton up Your Meals Cocktails, appetizers and relishes to the meal are as the frosting to the cake â€" the . imaginative, glamorous flourish that makes a meal an out- standing event rather than a routine performance. It is only in recent years that the custom of starting the meal with a cocktail has gained such wide popu- larity. Soups used to be the accept- ed way of opening dinner but the ease with which the modern house- wife can open a can of tomato Juice or fruit cocktail is a good reason for the spread of this habit. Besides, we moderns eat less and lighter foods. Soups tend to fill one up too much to enjoy a good dinner whereas an appetizer just sharpens the appetite and lends an elegant touch to the meal. Too many housewives are prone to serve the same cocktail over and over again so we are giving a variety of ideas for appetizers which will brighten your meals and show your originality. FRUIT COCKTAILS may be made of plain or mixed fruit juices, tart combinations of fruits and fruit juices, a single tart fruit such as grapefruit, served alone or a mixture of tart fruit and a fruit ice or sherbet. To prepare fruit, remove all skin and membrane, cut in pieces of serv- ing size, and chill thoroughly. Serve ice cold in cocktail or sherbet glasses, carefully arranged, and garnished with mint, a colored cherry, preserv- ed ginger, bright jelly, or whole ber- ries.

Household Hints The best method of cleaning fab- ric lampshades is to brush with a soft brush until all the dust has been removed. Parchment shades can be wiped clean with a soft cloth. Recessed mirrored shelves In a small dining room are both decora- tive and useful and add a modern touch. Aluminum, though it is affected by acids and alkalis, is easily clean- ed with fine steel wool. It heats quickly, holds the heat, wears well. Is light and not too expensive. One of the quickest, simplest and best enjoyed first course appetizers is a halved grapefruit or Ugli fruit. Garnish centre with maraschino or mint cherry.

It's more natu- ral for her to write backwards witiji her left hand than normally with he>1 right â€" and she does both. "Agnes' sight is perfectly normalj and she doesn't see things in i^, verse," her mother said. "But her, mirror-writing is actually smoother , and more mature than straight writ- ing with her right hand. "We don't think anything of it. Agnes was unusually keen to learn when she was a baby and we taught! her how to write. But she always' wrote with her left hand and back-' wards and the writing had to be held] up to a mirror to be read. Htt, school teacher taught her how fo write with her right hand. The peculiarity is not optometrio and could not be changed by glasses, according to P. H. Montgomery, Windsor optometrist. "As lar as I can make out this is a case for a psychologist," he said.
