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;

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

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.

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."

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. Steve’s a-coming borne to
me.”
"She can . make It!" cried Somers,
despairingly, but even ns he spoke the
close-reete« yacht scudded In before
the wind with scarcely a foot to spare
between her hull and the angry reefs
to leeward and. racing defiantly to her
moorings, lowered her sails and let go
her anchor, while the lifeboat men
pulled a.ongside with a cheer.
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. She laid her head upon
his breast

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. Robert Wattam,

something about land claims and such
things, and was regarded as an im
portant witness
Mr_ Garfield described the three
measures relating to Alaskan coal lo
cations pending in congress in ISOS
The Cale bill permitted combinations
up to four sections at |10 an acre.
"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.
Mr. Garfield said Ballinger met him
at his home in Ohio on September 17,
ISOS, and presented to him the Cun
ninghant affidavit.
"I told him." said Mr. Garfle'd. "that
the information the department had
from the Glavis report on the Cun
ningham journal satisfied me the
claims were illegal.”
"Did Mr. Ballinger state to you that
he was appearing as counsel for Cun
ningham?" asked Mr, Braudels.
"He did not."
Garfield said Ballinger had told him
nothing about any option which the
Guggenheims had on the Cunningham
claims dated December 7, 1907, as
their representatives testified before
the senate committee on territories
last month.
Mr. Garfield said Mr. Glavis was one
of the cleanest and ablest officers in
the service He especially commended
his recotd in the land office.
