Survival of the Fittest. L " -E next four days slipped by almost unheeded. Blake saw to it that not Li& only himself but his companions had work to occupy every hour of day- light. When not engaged in cooking acd -"-1 gathering. Miss Leslie Avas learning by painful experience the ru- uiments of dressmaking. At th start she had all but ruined the beautiful skin of the mother leopard before Blake chanced to see her and took over the task of cutting it into shape for a skirt But when it came to making a waist of the cub fur, he said that she would have to puzzle out the pattern from her other one. Between cooking three meals a day over an open fire, gathering sev eral arrufuls of wood, and making a dress with penknife, thorn, and cat- J-yi"r m gut. the gitl had little time to think of other matters than her work. Winthrope had been gazetted as hunter in ordinary. His task was to keep Miss Leslie supplied with fresh eggs and each day to kill as many of the boobies and cormorants as ho could skin and split for drying. Blake had changed his mind about taking him when he went for cocoanuts. In stead, ho had gone alone on several trips, bringing three or four loads of nuts, then a littie salt from the sea shore, dirty but very welcome, and last of all a great lump of clay, wrapped in palm fronds. With this clay ho at once began ex periments in the art of pottery. Hav ing mixed and beaten a small quan tity, he molded it into little cups and bowls, and tried burning them over night in he watch-firo. A few came out without crack or flaw. Vastly elaleti by this success, he fashioned larger vessels from his clay, and with- in the week could brag of two pots suitable for cooking stews, and four large nondescript pieces which he called plates. What was more, all had a faiily good sand glaze, for he had been quick to observe a claze on the bottoms cf the first pots, and had reasoned out that it was due to the J sand which had adhered while they stood drjir.g in the sun. He next turned his attention to mct- i alhirgy. The first move was to search u:e river oank lor tne brown bog iron ore which he believed he had seen from the farther side.

Had Costly Coronation Robe and Throne. An old Parisian firm which deals in embroideries and supplied artistic needlework to the court o'f Louis XVI. is still in possession cf the accounts of former centuries, and an inspection of these books reveals some interest- ing facts. Napoleon I. was economical as compared with the Empress Jose phine, but' his bills were considerable. The embroidery on his coronation robe cost 10,500 francs, and an em- broidered coat cost 3,500. This coat became too small for him after he had worn it a year, and he ordered pieces must be savage beasts in the jungle." "Thats my business," growled Blake. He paused a moment. ad added, rath er less ungraciously: "Well, if you care. It's this way I'm going to keep on looking for ore. Give me a little iron -ore. and we'll mighty soon have a lot of steel knives &nd arrow-heads thnt'll amount to something. How're we going to bag anything worth while with bamboo tips on our arrows? Those bear tusks are a fizzle." "So you will continue to ris your life for us? I think that is very brave and generous. Mr. Blake!" "How's that?" demanded Blake, not a little puzzled. lie was fully con ( scions of the risk; but this was the 1 first intimation he had received or , conceived that his motives were oth er than selfish "Um-m! So that's the ticket. Getting generous, eh?" "Xot getting you are generous! When I think of all you have done for us! Had it not been for you. I am sure we should have disd that first day ashqre." "Well, don't blame me. I couldn't have let a dog die that way; and then, a fellow needs a ?.!an Friday for this sort of thing. As for you. I haven't always had the luck to be favored with ladies' company." "Thank you. Mr. Blake. I quite ap preciate the compliment. But now. I must put on supper." Blake followed her graceful move ments with an intentness which, in turn, drew Winthiope's attention to himself. The Englishman smiled in a disagreeable manner, and resumed his work on ih" bows, with the look of one mentally preoccupied. After sup ier he found occasion to suend some little time among tho bamboos. When at sunset Miss Leslie with drew iiiio the baobab. Winthrope somewhat officiously insisted upon helping her set up her screen in the entrance. As he did so. he took the oppoilunity to hand her a baniboc knife, and to draw her attention to several double-pointed bamboo stakes which he had hidden under the litter "What is it?" she asked, troubled by his furtive glance back at Blake. '.Merely precaution, you know," he whispered. "Tho ground in there is quite soit. It will be no tiouble. 1 fancj to put up the stakes, with their points inclined toward the entrance." "But why" "Xot so loud. Miss Genevieve! It struck me that if any one should s?ek to enter in the night, he would find these stakes deucedly unpleasant. Be careful how j on handle them. As you see, the sharper points, which arc tc be set uppermost, run oIT into a razor edge. Put them up now, before ii grows too dark. You know how nine pins are set that shape. Gacd-aight! You see, with thes'j to guard the ci trance, you need not be afraid to go tc stern zi once." 'Thank ;-.u," she whispered, and began to thrust the stakes into the ground as lie had directed. He had not been mistaken. The vague dcubts and fears which sho al ready entertained would have kept her awake throughout the night, but thanks to the sense of security af fotdod by the sword-bayonets of her silent little sentries, the girl was scon able to calm herself, and was fast asleep long befoicBlaku wakened Winthrope. Immediately after breakfast. Blake who had spent his watch in grind 1 ing the edces from a stone and ex perimenting with split and bent j twigs put Winl hrope's keys in tht i fire, ai'd beran an attempt to shape them into a knife-blade. To heat the stcpl tQ lho ,.cn,,h.e(1 lemperaitire. he used a bamboo blowpipe, with his lungs for bellows. Winthrope turned away wi.h an in different bearing: but Miss Leslk found herself compelled to slop and admire his dexterous use of his rude tools. (TO BE CONTIXI'EIJ.) Always Light in the Sky. "The sky," says the Scientific Amer ican, "is never dark. This, however is not duo to tlu sun, but to the stars The Milky Way is above the horizon in summer in our latitude, and it gives a great deal of light by night, enough to make the night tky of that timo brighter than when it is not a part of our night sky, as is the case in winter. Then, too, the stars which cannot be seen by the unaided eye give us much light. The stars which are not visible to the eye give more light than those which are visible." Rice Crcp Is Large.

THE WHITE STEAMER WHICH AS FUEL The most interesting announce ment ever made in connection with the automobile industry was un doubtedly that made a month or two ago to the effect that the new models of the White Steam Cars could be run on kerosene, or coal oil, instead of gasoline. Everyone at once recog nized that the use of the new fuel would add materially to the advan tages which tho White already pos sessed over other types of cars. There were some people, however, who were sceptical as to whether or not the new fuel could be used with complete success, and, therefore, tho makers of tho White Car, the White Company, of Cleveland. Ohio, deter mined to make a public demonstra tion of the new fuel in the 1909 Gild den Tour. From the standpoint of the public, no test more satisfacton- could have been selected. First of all. the dis tance covered on the Glidden Tour, from Detroit to Denver and thence to Kansas City, was 2G50 miles. This was certainly more than sufficient to bring out any weaknesses, if such had existed. Still more important was the fact that the car was at ail times while on the road under the supervi sion of observers named by thoso who entered other contesting cars. Therefore, it would have been impos sible for the driver of. the White to have even tightened a bolt without ihe fact being noted and a penalty in flicted. At night the cars were guarded by Pinkerton detectives and could not be approached by any one.

Hesiod. IbrHjl Jf IfeulH MADE A SUCCESSFUL PUBLIC DEMONSTRATION OF KEROSENE ON THE RECENT 2650MILE GLIDDEN TOUR. The complete success of the new fuel while on the 2050-raiIc public test and the advantages gained through its use were well described in the following dispatch which the correspondent of the New York Sun sent to his paper at the conclusion of the tour: "A feature of the tour which was watched with special interest was that the White Steamer used kero rene. or 'coal oil,' as fuel inctead of gasoline. The new fuel worked splendidly throughout the 2GC0-niilo journey, and all claims made in its behalf were fully proven. First of all, as regards cheapness, the White driver secured kerosene all along the route from G cents to 10 cents cheap er per gallon thnn was paid for gaso line. Secondly, the new fuel was handled without any precautions, and it was not unusual to see kerosene being poured into the fuel tank while the crew of the car and an interested crowd stood by with lighted cigars and cigarettes. At the finish of the tour, the White was the only car per mitted by the authorities to enter Convention Kail, where the technical examination took place, without draining its fuel tank. Thirdly, the new fuel proved to he absolutely without smoke or smell. Fourthly, kerosene could be purchased at what ever part of the route was most con venient, and not once during the trip through the ten States of the Middle West was there found a grocery store where kerosene was not readily and cheaply obtainable.

The car in j other respects made a most crcditabloj showing, and there was the usual riv-i airy among the observers to bo as-l signcu to tne wane so mat mey, could ride with the maximum of com fort. Tho only adjustment.T or re-j pairs charged against the car during the long trip were tightening a lubri cator pipe and wiring a damaged mud guard. These penalties were cot in flicted until more than 2000 miles had been completed with an absolute ly perfect score." A particularly interesting feature of the new White Steamer is that either kerosene or gasoline may be used as fuel. The necessary adjust ments .so that the fuel may be changed from kerosone to gasoline, or vice versa, may be made in a couple of minutes; but so completely successful has kerosene proved to be. that it is not believed that any purchasers will care to use gasoline. The White Company report that the demand for their new steam cars both tho ?2000-model and the 5-1000-modcl exceed their most san guine expectations. It is evident that the combination of steam the row er which everyone understands and, has confidence in with kerosene the fuel which everyone has on hand and can handle without any danger is thoroughly appreciated by up-to-date purchasers of automo biles.
