The spe cialists advise those who are not used to gardening or wish to have their children take an interest in the gar den to hire a laborer to do the heavy preliminary spading or breaking up the soil. This heavy work frequent ly disgusts novices and children who would continue to take an interest in the garden if their task was simply to fine and cultivate soil already broken up. Seed For a Family of Four The following amounts ol seed, the garden specialists of the U. 8. Depart ment of Agriculture say, are needed to plant approximately 100 feet of row, or enough to supply vegetables for a family of four: . Beans, snap, 1 pint. Beans, pole lima, % pint. Beans, bush lima, 14 to 1 pint. Cabbage, early, ounce. Carrot, 1 ounce. Cauliflower, 1 packet. Celery, 1 packet. Cucumber, % ounce. Eggplant, 1 packet. Kale, or Swiss chard, V 4 ounnce. Parsley, 1 packet. Parsnips, Vi ounce. Salsify, 1 ounce. Squash, summer. % ounce. Squash, Hubbard type, ,4 ounce. The following vegetables, the spe cialists say, will undoubtedly be plant ed in larger amounts than those just mentioned, and the amounts of seed given will be a guide for ordinary re quirements. Some families may need more of the various vegetables and others would need less: Beet, 4 ounces. Cabbage, late, % ounce to 1 ounce. Copyright, 1913, by Dtubltdty, Pig A C*. (Continued.)

I looked about me with consider nble Interest to see who of the camp bad been summoned. 1 must confess to a few surprises, such us tbe gum bler from tbe Empire, but In general the feathering consisted of those whom 1 should have characterized as solid clt tecms—Barnes. the hotel keeper: Him melwrlgbtand men of his stripe. They were all armed and nil very grave and sober. Danny ran his eye over us one by one. "Meeting come to order." he com manded briskly "This Is a vigilante meeting. 1 hope you all realize what that means. There are Just thirty of us here, and Morton's gang Is proba bly n hundred strong when It Is all to gether. We cannot tight them, but we can give the honest, decent men of this camp a chance to fight them. I myself believe the honest men will back us and am willing to risk it. If any of you who are here now think differently say so." I-Ie paused, but no one spoke up. "If anybody doesn't want to go into this now is tbe time to back out Just keep your mouths shut; that is all." He paused again, but agnin no one moved. "That's all right." observed Danny, with satisfaction. He lifted n paper. "Listen to tills: 'We, the undersigned, agree, as we nre decent men, to stand by each other to the last, to avenge the death of any one of us and to obey the orders of our leaders. And If we fail In thiß may God deny us merry.' Boys," said Danny Randall earnestly, "this Is serious. If we start this now we've got to see it through. We are not much on Bible oaths, any one of us, but we must promise. F"raak Mun roe. step forward!" One by one Danny Randall called ua forward and administered h! simple oath. Tho fire leaped and with it the mighty shadows. Outside the clrclo of light the tall pines and fir trees watched us like a,multitude standing witness. Tbe men's faces were grave.

Scarface Charley, who bad recovered: a gambler named Cat lin and Jules, the proprietor of tho Empire. "Crawford is back In town." said some one. "Make It live then," said Danny In stantly. Next came up the vital questions of ways and means. Many were in favor of a night surprise and an immediate hanging before the desperadoes could be organized for defense. Danny had a hard time showing them good rea sons against this course, but at last he succeeded. "This must be done deliberately aad publicly," he malutalned. "Otberwlso it. falls of Its effect We'*e got to show the gang that the cninp is against them, and that won't be don* by hang ing some of them secretly." "Suppose the camp doesn't back us up?" queried a miner. "Remember your oath, gentlemen," was Danny's only reply to this. It was decided at last that five com mittees should be appointed to arrest each of the fire men, that the prison ers should be confined in a certain iso lated log cabin and that the execution should take place In broad daylight. There remained only to apportion the committees. This was done, and at about 2 or 3 o'clock we quietly dis- Corn, sweet, 1 pint, lettuce, 1 ounce. Muskmelon, 1 ounce. Onion sets, 2 quarts.

The string beans, bush lima beans, sweet eorn, lettuce, peas and radishes, will not all be planted at one time, but successive plantings two to three weeks apart will be made so as to have a fresh supply throughout the season.' , Of early Irish potatoes, 1 peck to bushel will be required, and of late potatoes >4 bushel to 1 bushel, or more, depending upon the amount of ground available for this purpose. If possible, enough Irish potatoes should be grown to last throughout the win ter. In the event that the family wishes to raise vegetables to supply current needs and also to supply a surplus for canning, the amounts indicated above should be considerably Increas ed.

I was in&t.uvicu i.< ciate with three of the miners in the arrest of Catlin. CHAPTER XXV. Rounding Up the Gang, WITH the members of my com mittee I returned to our own camp, there to await the ap pointi l hour of 7. This had been selected for several reasons—it was daylight, tbe roughs would be at bome. and the community, although afoot, would not yet have gone to Work While'waiting we cooked our selves some hot coffee and made some flapjacks. The chill, gray time of day had come, the period of low vitality, and we shivered with the cold and with excitement Nobody had much to say. We waited grimly for the time to pass. About 6 o'clock Yank arose, seized his long rifle and departed for the log cabin that had been designated as the jail. His lameness had prevented him from being appointed on one of the arresting committees, but he had no Intention of being left out. A half hour later we followed him Into town. It was a heavenly fall morning of the sort that only mountain California can produce. The camp was begin ning to awaken to its normal activity. I remember wondering vaguely how It could be so calm and unconcerned. My heart was beating violently, and I had to clinch my teeth tight to keep them from chattering. This was not fear, but a high tension of excitement. As wo strolled past the Bella Union with what appearance of nonchalance we could muster Danny Kandall nod ded at us from the doorway. By this we knew that Catlin was to be found at his own place. Catllta dwelt In a detached room back of the Empire, together with one of the other professional gamblers. We lounged around the corner of the Em pire building. The door of the cabin was shut Outside we hung back, hes itating and a little uncertain. None of us was by nature or training a man of violence, and we experienced the reluctance of men about to plunge into cold water. Nobody was more than pardonably nfrald. and of course we had every intention of seeing the af fair through. Then suddenly In the actual face of the thing Itself my ex citement drained from me like a tide receding. My nerves steadied, ray trembling stilled. Never had 1 felt more cool in my life. Drawing my revolver, I pushed open the door and entered the building. Catlin was in the act of washing his face, and him I Instantly covered with my weapon. His companion was still "Your ■•ntnc is death, 1 " I told him. Hbetl. On my entrance tbe latter had Instinctively raised on his elbow, but Immediately dropped back as be saw tbe figures of my companions darken ing tbe door. "Well. gentlemen?" demanded Cat tin. *'You must come with us." I replied. He showed no concern, but wiped carefully his face and hands. "What am I wanted for?" he in quired. "For being a road agent, a thief and an accessory to robberies and mur ders," I replied. "I am innocent of all. as innocent as you are." "There is no possibility of a mis take." "What will you do with me?" "Your sentence is death." I told him. For a single instant Ills dark face lit up. "You think so?" lie flashed. "Hurry!" urged one of my compan tons. (To lio Continued.) ILL-TEMPER; HOW IT MAY BE CURED Beatrice Fairfax Writes Con cerning the Cause of Difficul ties of Everyday Life By Beatrice Fairfax It has been suggested by more than one writer of eminence that ill-tem per should be considered a just cause for divorce. Some, of course, are absolutely shocked at the idea; but the suggestion is based on good com mon sense. It was Henry Drummond who said "No form of vice, nor worldliness, nor greed of gold, nor drunkenness itself, does more to unchristianlze society than evil temper." Before such strong measures as divorce are'thought of., would it not be better to see in what way this fail ing might be cured? One woman of the writer's acquain tance was a perfect martyr to he>- own violent passion. Directly any one an noyed her she flew out with angry, meaningless words, and the after effects proved most pajnfui to herself. "I'm quite sorry for Mr. J . His wife's such a terribly sharp-tem pered woman; she jumps on him for the least thing." Those words were overheard by the lady in question, and they were spoken of herself. She knew she was Irritable, but had not before grasped how badly so. She at once made up her mind to control her anger, and in time she did so. Her method is worth relating for the benefit of others afflicted in the same way. She carried a pocket book and pencil, hanging by her side, and if anything annoyed her, instead of shouting about it, sue wrote down the cause of her displeas ure. Thi3 Bhe read over an hour or so later, and then saw how foolish it would have been to waste her energy in getting angry over it. Of course, there were several "slips back" at first, but, eventually, she achieved tl e art of controlling her temper. The habit of repose is the art of good-breeding, and every sensible man or woman will cultivate repose, so that they may not grow old be fore their time, with faces lined and distorted by anger. Just as a fight ing person acquires a fighting face, the termagant soon begins to look the part. The folly of some young couples | is that they use up so many pretty j sayings and compliments during ;! courtship that they have exhausted ! j their stock; when they come to the j altar they close their shop. Some . times they open another after mar ! riage, stocking it with bitter words, anger, and scowling looks. There ! is grit where there should be oil, and 1 !so the wheels of matrimony creak 1 ! and grumble as they drag along. • i The average man or woman has > little oi 1 no money to spare on per i sonal pleasures. To keep the house • going is as much as can possibly be i managed, and life is absolutely not ; worth living if in the home there are i nothing but angry words and grumb -1 lings. ! The woman who considers it her I conscientious duty to remind her hus band of his faults continually, and 1 the man who scolds and grumbles | with his wife at every turn, would ; be l'ar happier and healthier if they i would turn their thoughts to the good , j qualities of their respective partners. The woman of violent temper will i become unloving and unlovable, and will wreck any home, for when "fight ing" becomes a habit, an excuse for fighting is easily made. I Folk with too evcu a temper are usually spiritless and uninteresting; but there is a vast difference between | the man or woman who gives vent to !an outburst at long intervals, and ; such folk who live in a constant state | of irritation, and shower volumes of i abuse whenever their wishes are j crossed. Such, however, really re i quire medical attendance, and in nine | cases out of ten impaired digestion is 1 the cause. A doctor told the writer that a reg ! ular and even diet has worked won ; ders. Nevertheless, ill-temper can | only be cured by letting sound com mon-sense show up "storming" and ! the harm it does. THIS WOMAN TOIITO CHOOSE Between Operation and Death. Cured by Lydia E.

Janet was physically tired us well as mentally. She had resolved to spend the entire evening at home alone with Jarvls, just resting, but now that Jar vis had gone out with Dick Armstrong everything was different. After the quick, impulsive rush tears, Janet exerted her self-control and began to reason with herself. Jarvis had thoughtlessly violated what sho had thought ho would re member, but the fact was thoughtless not intentional. The fact that he had gone out, made no difference, it was the manner in which he had gone. And then Janet thought he probably had gone on the spur of the moment, any way, and why shouldn't he go? Did she want him to stop ana consider >\ niiiit'. u. nut iic wou.u iiurt lit i feel ings every time he left her or did she want to be free? The more sho thought about it, the more angry she grew with herself. "Why, I am behaving just like a regular wife," she said out loud a little ruefully, 'when.l am really an understanding comrade." And the thought went the rest of the way toward restoring her usual amount of common sense and sunny good humor. Then she began to think what to do. After a moment's indecision she arose slowly, went into the bed room, slipped out ot her negligee and began to dress for the street. She put on her tailored suit and a sailor, and, finally snapping all the lights out but one in the studio, she went out. Janet had determined to exercise her pre rogative as a comrade and do just Jarvis had done. The i ight was cool and lovely and she walked briskly with 110 point in view. She did not feel like calling on anyone, so she determined to walk un til she was tired and then go back home. The walk was what she needed to drive away any thoughts that still remained to disturb her and by the time she was ready to return she was entirely herself. She ran up the steps lightly and saw a light gleaming under the door of the Honeymoon House. Scarcely an hour and a hall' had passed since Jarvis had gone off with Dick and here ho was back again before her. She tingled with excitement; things couldn't have been planned better. Her key in the lock brought Jaivis into the hall, and as she laughed up at him merrily he snatched her nun grily up against him. The words were on his lips, "Where have you been?" fr 11 20 MR IH KWkm Near the Young Women's Christian Association lr- THINK l \ ( WHAT YOU PAY I _ FOR WHEN SPEND ING YOUR MONEY REMEMBER ' No matter what you have set [ your heart on setting, either n | Suit, Coat or Dress, we earn ■ request to come and HI inspect our beautiful rich stocks. is here at a much lower price ihan you will expect to spend and you are assured of perfect Roods, as we buy no seconds, no job lots or goods for sale pur ' J poses.

"Nothing, nothing at all." Jarvis said a little roughly. But Janet knew that coming back and finding the stu dio empty had frightened him and sho was too wise to say anything. Sho went into her bedroom and lightly threw off her things. Jarvis followed I her in, and she sniffed delicately. "Boy, are you making chocolate?" she queried. He grinned, for a moment forgetting the thought that was uppermost In his , mind. "Thought it would taste good with some crackers," he said, and then he burst out, "Janet, I want to be cu -1 rious and ask where you have been and why you went and all the things that a regular husband would ask his i wife." "But you're not a regular husband." "I want to be just for now," he said quickly. Janet regarded him teasingly, "Well, 1 haven't anything to conft.;s; X went ; for a walk, that's all." j "Alone?" "Of course, alone. "I'm not a piece j of Dresden china." "Janet, you were hurt that I went 'out to-night, weren't you?" Janet considered, one pink finger against her lips. "Well," she drawled finally, "perhaps I was. You see, I I had thought you had decided to slay : with me all evening, but it was a fool ! ish thing to think, dear, as X quickly discovered after X had taken tinje vo consider." "No, it wasn't foolish, I thought of it myself after X had been out live minutes. I had a rotten time trying to be decent away from you. Dick thinks I am a hopeless case." "I think you are too, from his stand point," Janet returned slowly. "I couldn't imagine Dick seriously caring for anyone, could you?" "It's hard to think of anyone caring j as I do," Jarvis returned, drawing his words out slowly. "This is developing into a disserta tion on love, isn't it?" she returned , lightly, but her hands were held fast | in those sinewy ones of Jarvis' and. al though her words were light her heart | was singing with the fact that Jarvis ; cared as much as she did and every thing had come out all right after ull. The next time would never hurt quite so much as this experience had, and simply because she had taken the time to reason it out and be sensible. 9
