"Now this 1b peculiar," thought
Qlndys Dormnn. "I have trnveled'over
this very trail your nfter year,, nnd I
now run nt n loss ns to how to pro
ceed from hero."
Jack Dormnn and his daughter had
been coming up to tho mountnlns for
Homo yours now, and It was a trip that
thoy both looked forward to very much.
Gladys was only twenty, but a born
mountain climber, golf and tonnls play
er. Healthy outdoor sports always ap
pealed to her, and to hike over the
mountains wns her chief hobby. To
day sho had Insisted upon going alone,
tolling her father that she wanted to
do some exploring herself before the
season was over, to which be consent
ed rather reluctantly.
After hiking for some hours n heavy
mountain fog sot In, and the entire
mountainside wns enveloped In a dark
and threatening cloud. It was useless
for one to proceed until It passed over,
and, as a rule, It would last but a few
minutes. But today It lengthened Into
an hour.
Sitting on a huge rock, Gladys snt
there looking at the heavy mist, won
dering when the cloud would leavo this
side of the mountain, when suddenly
out of tho mist a voice spoke.
"Hello, what have I hero?" ex
claimed the Invisible one, which sound
ed very much like a masculine voice to
Gladys. "Well, I declare It Is a bootl"
and n hearty laugh could be henrd hear
Gladys, but the fog wns so dense sho
could not see who It wns. Then some
one gave Gladys' hoot a vigorous pull,
and for a moment she thought she was
going to slide off the rock.
"Well, whoever you nre kindly stop
pulling at my boot," cried Gladys Im
patiently. Now she wished with all
her heart she had let her father or one
of the party at the hotel accompany
her,
"Thunder and Mars!" exclaimed the
masculine voice again. "It's a girl's
boot I wns pulling nt," and ngnln that
hearty laugh rang out? echoing down
the mountnlnsjde. At thnt moment the
cloud disappeared and the sun was
struggling to come out from behind
nnother cloud, and finally succeeded
Then Gladys looked down and almost
at her feet was a young man looking
up nt her in nn nmused sort of a 'way,
which at the time provoked her, and
still he continued staring, a smllo play
ing around his lips, but not a word
could he utter.
"Please don't stare nt me In thnt
fashion you look ns tltough you were
a hungry bear and wanted to eat me"
and Gladys smiled in spite of herself.
It was surely nmuslng, she
thought, and nt that moment she made
n movement ns though about to rise,
when the young mnn Jumped up al
most Instantly and exclaimed : "Oh, I
say, please don't go," In a pleading
voice. "And I do want to apologize,"'
and again ho quilled pleasantly, but n
questioning look wns In his eyes, and
his one thought wns: "Would she
stay If only for n few minutes."
"Well, Mr. Man, seeing that you have'
recovered your voice and that you are
not going to eat me up nfter all, I'll
stay for a few minutes." Then, as
though a second thought presented It
self: "I'm nlmost starving for some
thing to eat what say you?"
"Say, I'm so hungry, little girl, I
could almost eat you right now," ho
cried eagerly.
"Very well then, It's high time for
me to be going, when ytTu want to eat
mo up but I simply have to eat, and
that's all there Is to it, so please don't
eat me up yet," she smiled.
Gladys spread n hearty lunch on the
rock, and while munching away at the
delicious sandwiches Unit sho herself
had prepared, they talked and laughed
between moutbfuls, and soon she
lenrned from him that he, too, like
herself, visited tho mountains evory
year, and that ho was Fred Anderson,
a former well-known conch nt Mount
ford, and n very good friend of her fa
ther's. It seemed strange to them both
that they bad never met, hut It was due
to tho fact that they both wcro away
nt school during tho fall, and lmmedl
ntely when vacation time set In they
both left the city. She ulso learned
that ho had Just been discharged from
tho service.
When they arrived at the hotel, Mr.
Anderson's eyes nearly stuck out of his
head with surprise. "Well, of nil
things, Ted; when did you get back?"
"Got discharged about two inonthB
ago, and then beat It for tho moun
tains," nnd nt tho snme time they both
shook hands heartily.
Ted was stopping nt a mountain hut,
some dlstanco away, but he decided
thnt It was very necessary that ho
should stay nt tho same hotel as tho
Dormaus, and needless to say that
Gladys and ho developed a strong
friendship, which later ripened Into
love.
At sunsot ono evening shortly before
It was tlma to return to the city, they
woro sitting on the veranda of tho
hotel, when suddenly Ted exclaimed:
"Gladys, It's strnngb how we both de
cided to start off alono on that won'
derful 'never-to-be-forgotten' day alone.
an I, llko yourself, as a rule went along
with a party or inkers."
"Well, Ted," sho answered demurely,
"it's just tins way : I was lonesome nnd
longing for oh, for lots of things
turn "
"I, too, wns lonesome, little sweet
heart, and we both heard the call of
the ru'uMains I tn cnllfi g to you
little girl in you uuer"d the call."

FINE LACES MADE BY SQUAWS'
New Industry on Indian Reservations!
Said to Be Bringing Independence
and Happiness.
As one nssoclntes luce nicking with'
deft fingers, it Is hard to realize hut
the stoical squaw has the necessary
digital equipment for this work. But
In tho Indian reservations In the far
and middle West lnee making Is prov
ing a means townrd economic Inde
pendence for the Indian woman, the
New York Tribune states.
It was through a deaconess of the
Episcopal church thnt lace making was
introduced to tho Indian. Until then
squnws of tho first Americans had not
engaged In the decorative arts except
to make beaded garments for their
braves. In 1S90, however, the first les
son In lace making wns given to OJlb
wny squnws nenr Duluth. Bishop
Whipple of Minnesota, ono of the pio
neer missionaries of the Episcopal
church among the, redskins, eurly real
ized that the solution of the Indian
problem lay In making the Indian self-
supporting.
So successful were theso efforts
that today laco schools are maintained
on ten reservations. Their exquisite
cxnmples In cutwork, needlepoint nnd
bobbin lace hnvo received gold medals
nt five expositions, nnd today the
squnw, without neglecting her house
hold duties, can earn from $75 to $100
n yenr.
To encourage Just such nctlvltles
nmong tho Indians will he ono of
tho purposes of the nationwide cam
paign of tho Episcopal church. But
to give economic Independence to tho
squaw has not been tho only accom
plishment of the Introduction of lnco
making on the Indian reservations. It
has not only- taught Industry, but It
hns brpught nbout cleanliness.
A report of the Sybil Cnrter Indlnn
Lnco association, named foe tho dea
coness who Introduced tins work,
records thnt this industry hns trans
formed the lives of Indlnn women un
dertaking it They can readily bo
distinguished from tho others by their
neat appeurnnce nnd bright and hope
ful faces.
A similar Impression wns obtained
by n United States senator, who re
ported thnt ho hnd never seen n hap
pier lot of women. "Thoy not only
worked steadily," ho snld, "but actu
ally lnughed nnd chatted together, In
strong contrast to tho apathetic nnd
hopeless squnwtf whom Bishop Whipple
called upon "Deaconess Carter to be
friend." It Is planned also to revive
tho old-time arts of beadwork nnd bas
ketry. Tho nssoclnUon has a prominent
shop In New York, Avhero tho sales of
Indlnn work amount to nbout $12,000
annually.

the executive .officer tapped me on the

It seems n womnn who lived close
to tho camp had become acquainted
with tho officer and had sent him a

of them, but was much embarrassed in
the way I received it Exchange.
