The cuts are deep, and the hammering must have jarred his brain terribly, if it was anybody but Macdonald, I wouldn't give him a chance," he toll Diane when he left in the morning to get breakfast. "But Macdonald has tremendous vitality. Of course if he lives it will be because Mr. El liot brought him in so soon." Gordon walked with the doctor as fr as the hotel. A brown, thin, lea thery man undraped himself from a chair in the lobby when El liot opened the door, lie was offi cially known as the chief of police of Kusiak. Incidentally he consti tuted the whole police force. Gen-! ernlly he was referred to hs Gopherj •lores on account of his habit of spasmodic prospecting. "X got to put you under arrest, j Mr. Elliot," he explained. "What for?" demanded Gordon. I surprised. "Doc thinks it will run to mur-j der, I reckon." The field agent was startled. "You! mean —Macdonald ?" The brown man chewed his quid j steadily. "You done guessed it." j ' That's absurd, you know. What evidence have you got?" "First off, you'd had trouble with liim. It. was common talk that when you and Mac met, guns were soing to pop. You bought an automatic revolver two days ago. You was seen practicing with it." "He had threatened me." "Vcu want to be careful what you say, Mr. Elliot. It will be used ;> gainst you.'

[To be Continued.] | Dandruff Soon Ruins the Hair J Girls—if you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't. it doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure I way to get rid of dandruff is to d!s- : solve it, then you destroy it entire ly. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at I night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gent ly with the linger tips, i By morning, most if not all, of I your dandruff will be gone, and three lor four more applications will com- I pletely dissolve and entirely destroy ! every single sign and trace of it. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop, I and your hair will look and feel a t ; hundred times better. You can get! : liquid arvon at any drug store. It! j is inexpensiv6 and four ounces is all you need, nc matter how much dan ! druff you have. This simple remedy I never fails. —Adv. Life's Problems Are Discussed By Mrs. Wilson Woodrow What is the matter with your ex pression? Why. my dear sisters — tor 1 am asking tile above question of women—why do the gerat major ity of us look either harassed, or vinegary ,or down trodden, or ra pacious, or disappointed, or worried, or hard, or just doleful? If you do not believe that this is a fact, go study women in the places where they do congregate— the streets, the shops, the restau rants or tearoonra, tne theaters and motion picture houses. You may advance a number of reasons. I do hope, however, that you are not going to say, "Because life is so hard for us poor women." No woman worth her salt ever put up that whine. 1 sat once in a dreary little cab in in the Rocky Mountains beside a woman, a musician, who had en dured about all the woes that could be heaped on one poor mortal.

"I suppose my life would seem j ! like a bad dream to most people, but I've always had music; and just one sunset like that makes it all 1 ! seem worth while." When woman in the mass reso- j I lutely and with a firm purpose puts ail self-pity behind her, her exp>'es-1 sion will at once begin to improve. But there is another cause, and a | more potent one. The majority of I women try to live too many differ- ) ent kind of lives at the same time. The cat is reputed to have? nine j , lives, but it uses only one at a time ! holding the others in reserve to fall' I back on in case the one is threat- j ' ened. i But the average woman in or- ( . dlnarily comfortable circumstances, . lacks the cat's repose and philo . I sophical outlook, not to speak of its powers of relaxation. She uses. j up all her energies at once. , The last thing that woman, even when she is engaged in businessoorr r . one of the professions, will learn is,, ' "This one thing I do." Instead, she .lis continually repeating. These j 1 twenty different things I do, and all i in cne short day." We hear very frequently of peo-j . t>le breaking down from overwork, 1 really a rare thing for any. one to | .bieak down from overwork., They j break down from the grinding mon- I . otony of the task "lt isn't the l 'unting that 'urts the 'orse,-it's the! I 'ammer, 'ammer or the 'ard 'igh 1 road" — or they break down from 1 continual worry, or because they are mis-cast. Their work does not suitl them, and they aro neither happy! ; nor interested in it. They also break down because! j they do not understand the laws of i equilibrium. They know how to work and to worry, but they,do not know how to play and relax. Life to many women is a very | complex, hap -hazard, higgledy-pig- I gledly art'air, full of innumerable re-1 | sponsibilities and pretty duties". They I were to work and to light.

The fact that he has a wife and! ! children to support, a business toj keep going, no matter what the j conditions, governing it may be, | doe 3 not prevent the normal, every- 1 ' day man from eating three meals a 1 : day, sleepihg soundly at night and i taking a wholesome and genuine in terest in sports, politics or whatever . his hobby may be. But there are many women who, Whether they are working for their I ! living or spending their income are! in a perfectly tense state from the I morning until night. They don't : know the meaning of the word re ] lax. Even when they amuse them selves, it is in a high-keyed, excited sort of a way. The other evening I was talking to a man who was watching his wife with worried eyes. "She's riding for an awful fall." lie said gloomily. "She's on about!

Checked broadcloth is the ma terial that is shown in this coat and the fur collar and cuffs make it exceedingly smart as well as comfortable. It is such a pretty little model that it is certain to inake an appeal and at the same time it is a simple one. You can make it of broadcloth and you can make it of duvetyn or of velours cloth. The fur collar and cuffs are handsome but you can use material as indicated in the small view and you will notice that the collar can be buttoned up about the throat if the day is cold. A pretty feature is fur buttons. They are being exten sively used this season and they give a very smart touch.
