In the Teeth of the Storm By CLARA INEZ DACON “Cornu you tell me. Mrs. Clates. * here . can find a laundress—a really good laundress?” Miss Ritchdon queried somewhat diffidently of her summer landlady, who was placidly bend'ng over her cook stove In a temperature of about 100 degrees Fahreaneit "Well, now." returned Mrs. Clates. with a finely expansive air. 'Td do It in a minute just to accommodate, but I'm expecting company of my own next wee; to say nothing of roomers, and 1 don't see how- I could. Maybe— she's a .aundress that would suit any body. but 1 don't know; I s'pose you cou'u try i-er—se tae folks get along with «,e. all right—" she paused. "Wuo is she please?" inquired Miss Ritchdon curiously "And what's the matter with her?" "She Rosetta Prent. and—well, she's one of the best, but she's a little —quaer." "Oh. i* that's ail!" returned Miss j Kitchd;n. with evident relief. "Please] give me her address; I'lt go at once." , Miss Ritchdon heaved a little sigh as she went along, glancing out over the blue water o the harbor, dotted with yachts and huxzlng with motor boats. But Geoffrey had accused her—Iola Ritchdon—cf flirting! Well, a girl must be civil, even to men. as she had told Geoffrey, who had retorted—well, who cared for what Geoffrey had said ] or for Geoffrey, for the matter of that? j Thanks to the efforts of several ; neighbors. Miss Ritchdon finally tound 1 Miss Prent s house, perched as it was ! on a precipitous ledge, cat-a-cornered j to the street. Miss Prent appeared at the door. “It's all of ten o'clock In the morn ing." she announced in rather severe tones. "There's boats in the harbor, too. You come right along after me.” She moun'ed the stairs with consider able alacrity and Miss Ritchdon fol lowed. wondering. "What a charming view!” she re marked with disarming graciousness as she entered the room. Her hostess turned towards her with lackluster eyes and a tremulous face. "I'm wauiDfc and watching, deary; i .. i X-2Vor ZS-J=- 7t> jvirmrour—t waiting and watchingshe quavered, in a voice that had lost ail its irrita bility. Had any news, deary?” she in quired eagerly. "I've Drought some things for you to wash and iron, if you will.” Miss Kitcndon felt that this matter-of-fact statement might lesseu Miss Prent's queerness, and so it proved. Miss Prent undid the bundle with practieet' fingers. 'You want 'em done up?” snc queried, 'i’ll have to charge you 12 cents apiece lor the waists .and i dunno's i ought to take iess'n 15 j cents foe the skirts." "Oh. i m sure I shan't quarrel." be-1 gan Miss Ritchdon; but Miss Prent checked ne. with a little cry: ”1 didn't mean to quarrel with Steve! no i didn't Set down, set down! she went on hastily, "and I'll tell you all about it. You see"—she stopped, her eyes wandering wistfully out of the window. "But there! He knows it s all right he knows. Just 10 o clock in the morning, deary, and a man and a gu I and a toolisb word He sailed away on the fastest schooner In the Ueei and he'll come a sailing back some cay. 1 know! I'm watching" Miss Ritchdon went down the nap ■ow staircase with a dull terror at her dean against which she strove vainly, rhe till between Geoffrey Kenton and herselt had uever struck her as seri ous—she had vaguely imagined a reconciliation; now it suddenly oc curred to her that life without Geoffrey would Oc dreary indeed. Was she to wait and watch through the years that awaited her, as that poor creature had done, rn-urdering her tale, hair wit less. in a stranger's ear? A sudden gust of wind swept by her. chill anu salt from the sea; the light grayed; a mult'tude of email clouds thlcsenen overhead. She hur.ted along into tbe house "My! \©u look real pinched!" ejac ulated Mrs. Clates. “Wind's gone east, ain't It? And there's a mackerel sky. sure sign « e storm Well, bow'd you make oui with Miss Prent? Could she do >m f \ es She said they’d be ready Sat avday Miss Richardson spoke with an effort and Mrs. Clates looked at her euncusly "Miss Prent s been telling you about Steve Miipton?" she queried. "She's pretty ootefui at t*mes. You see, she and Steve set everything by each other and—“ "I—i guess Id better go upstairs. Mrs Clates. and get on something thicker Miss Ritchdon interrupted. "It's growing rather cool." "Well, maybe you had." returned Mrs Clates. with a hint of vexation In her .one. The wind steadily Increased during the aftemon and hy supper time tt was blowing a atiC gale. “ Tain t often we have a harder blow than this, even In winter.” re marked Capu Clates. "Guess you'd better not go out for supper. Miss Ritchdon—you might blow away; sup per's alt ready, we have It at half after five, summer 'n‘ winter. Seems like the middle of the afternoon, this time of year." Miss Ritchdon. nothing loath, took a seat at the hospitable table, shivering a little at every howl of the wind as It rattled the windows on the eastward side. “It's a dry storm.” went on the cap tain. and his voice had a suggestion of the quarter deck. ''There'll be some wrecks before to-morrow morning if this wind holds, and there ain't no sign of its dropping. Scott!” he ex claimed. as the door burst open and the wind sent the Harmerston Weekly flying about the room. "Bear a hand lively, t ersis! And you. Miss Ritch don. catch hold and shove! We've got to get iht door to or the winders will blow out. and then where'll we be?" There came a moment's lull and the three pushed the door shut, while (.'apt. Ctates hurriedly shoved a heavy chest atainst it and wiped his fore head. "IVn't recollect that ever hap pened before—and summer, too!" he exclaimed. "Guess folks will stay In doors to-night!" He stopped and seemed to listen. “Hark!" he whis pered. “Ik; bell's ringing on tae life saving station. There's a vessel in dis tress—maybe it's a wreck—“ Miss Ritchdon sprang to her feet. “Oh! I can't sit here!” she cried. “Can't « go out—out where 1 can see —for myself?" The captain regarded her with dis favor. “Well. 1 don't see why any sen sible girl." he began, protestinglv. but a look from his wife checked him. “Er—well, if you're set on it. Miss Ritehdo-.i. I s'pose I can manage it. but it'll be a pretty hard beat to wind 'ard. Tou get into your sweater—a shawl’s no good—a hat? My. all the hatpins you could stick in wouldn't hold It on! Put on a hood and tie it tight, too. We’ll go out the back door.” The two struggled down to a bluff commanding the harbor, buffeted by the wind that tugged at Miss Ritch don's *tkirts. as if seeking to hold her back. The sea was pounding on the rocks below them, and its foam flew high, smiting them with a sudden on slaught of spray at every fiercer gust. Capt. Clates drew the girl behind a projecting shoulder of rock. “That's a mite letter." be panted. “Where's the boat?" he inquired of a bystander “There sne Is—just outside, a big schooner-yacht." V iaivs MJUUA U1S Uf»U. never make it in this gale. Jack; she can't clear the point." "Guesr you’re right, captain." re joined Jack Somers, deferentially. A hoarse shout came from the shingly beach below them as the life saving crew made its appearance dragging a mortar into position, while a crowd Oi hardy sailors, more burly than ever in their sou'westers and cork belts, shaved the lifeboat Into a welter of ft-am, scrambling aboard at the last moment to send their boat seaward with mighty oar strokes. "Any notior whose yacht it is?” queried Capt. Clat?s. "Tney s&v It's that feller's who w ent off on .1 cruise two weeks back— name 's Kenton." Somers responded. "Ah!” lola Ritchdon's voice went out in a sharp cry. "Geoffrey Kenton was my friend—my lover—’’ "My pity and grief." muttered Capt. Clates, turrlng toward the girl who cowered by his side. Somers gave a sudden shout of con sternation. "What's that blamed idiot up to. anyway?" he cried excitedly. “He couldn't beat to windard long enough on the old tack to make the channel, aud now he's fell off and a-iunning before the wind into shoal water!" Miss Ritchdon felt a hand laid gen tly upon he. shoulder and. looking up, she saw Rosetta Prent’s lace, no longer anxious, with wandering gaze, but calm and confident. "Don , b* afraid, deary!” The voice was lull, sweet and compelling. "It s Sieve that's steering that yacht He was the only one in the whole fleet that knew the harbor welt enough to dare to take his schooner through Half lide Cut. where that yacht Is coming in.

Two men slid from the pitching deck of the yacht into the lifeboat, which came bounding landward over the tossing waves. “Geoffrey'" cried Miss Ritchdon. as a bronted young fellow dashed up the long flight of wooden stairs to catch both her wands in his; but no word came from Rosetta Prent's lips as she went quietly to the griuled man who follow-** him.

NO HEALTHY SKIN LEFT My little son. a boy of five, broke out with an itching rash. Three doc tors prescribed for him, but he kept getting worse until we could not dress him any more. They finally advised me to try a certain medical college, but its treatment did no good. At the time I was induced to try Cuti cura be was so bad that I had to cut his hair oft and put the Cuticura Oint ment on him on bandages, as it was impossible to touch him with the bare hand. There was not one square inch of skin on his whole body that was not affected. He was cne mass of sores. The bandages used to stick to his skin and in removing them it used to take th6 skin off with them, and the screams from the poor child were heartbreaking. I began to think that he would never get well, but after the second application of Cuticura Oint ment I began to see signs of improve ment, and with the third and fourth applications the sores commenced to dry up. His skin peeled off twenty times, but it finally yielded to the treatment. Now I can say that he is entirely cured, and a stronger and healthier boy you never saw than he Is today, twelve years or more since the cure was effected.

"What was the difference between your position as secretary of the In terior and that of Mr. BallingerT" asked Mr. Olmsted. "Mr. Ballinger,” said Mr. Garfield, "believed that the existing locations in Alaska should be permitted to con solidate tip to four sections." "Would the Cunningham rlalms come under Mr. Ballinger's proposed amendment?” asked Representative Graham. 'They would." replied the witness.
