"I must have one last look at the view from my tower," Nancy declared, but once In the familiar room she tiptoed to a carefully closed closet and drew forth something she had hidden.

Thus thought Nancy as site turned, and tossed, and thumped her unoffending pillow. "It's surely strange," murmured the girl, "how you get used to things. I don't see that awful embroidered baby any more and I've grown awful fond of General Grant It Just doesn't seem possible that this Is our last night In Colorado, and that tomorrow Jack and I'll be joggling along somewhere In Kansas. Why, the day we got here, when Cousin Columbine displayed this room so proudly, I thought I couldn't get away from It too soon and now all I can think of Is: sup posing we hadn't come!" About to ponder this awful possl blllty, Nance turned again and saw that the door Into her brother's room was opening. Said Jack. In muffled Irritated tones: "What the dickens is the matter with you, Nance? That old bed lets out a groan every time you move, and I'd say you've turned over every three minutes of the last hour. Why don't you go to sleep?" The girl laughed softly. t "Too much to think about I'm figuring out what would have hap pened if we hadn't come to Colorado.' "That's easy. Jack seated himself oh the foot of the massive bed, "I'd be earning my car fares In a broker's office most likely ; and you'd be drag' glng 'round Kdgemere, pitying your self and running up the telephone bill by calling your boy friends every few hours. Just to kill time. Honestly, Sis, can you Imagine living our whole lives without having known Cousin Columbine, or the Adams, or or going through that bliss- r.ard and everything? Maybe you'll laugh, but I feel lots older than when we came." But Nancy didn't laugh. She said, thoughtfully: "You seem older. Jack. And I . . ." Her self analysis went no further, and after a moment the hoy went on: "I'm mighty glad old Matt's got back into his stride. AH this last week he's looked like a lost dog! I don't believe he's seen a lot of girls, and was sort of scared for fear he'd taken you too well seriously. Matt's such a dandy feller, Nancy, I'd hate to think he'd fallen for you too hard." "So I'm not good enough for Mat-,theAdam?" The girl spoke softly, her dimple showing for a moment; but to her surprise Jack answered in all seriousness: "After what you did during the blizzard? You know better. Sis. But Matt's different from some boys, and I wouldn't like to think you'd hurt him." Said Nancy, endeavoring to make her voice sound light : "You talk like Aunt Judy I She imagines that every boy who looks my way has lost his No use long-distanc- e . w heart !" "Well," observed Jack, "most anyone would think that Matt had; but I never saw him act so happy and keyed tip as be did this evening and last night too. Say I will you ever forget how excited Mr. Adam was over your finding that crucifix? I think they're the finest family I ever knew, Nance. So enthusiastic, all of 'em. Do you suppose Dad'n Mother'll let me come back next winter? With Murk In California studying forestry they'll be short of help here at the ranch; and gee! I'd like It more'n anything!" "I'll say a good word for you," promised his sister. Nancy was up early next morning, though not so early as Matthew Adam, who had, according to Aurora, delivered milk at the Tubbs abode before she was out of bed. "He spoke through the window," she related, "and almost frightened Victor into a collapse. He said I was to tell Jack to be ready to ride down on the truck along with the trunks, and Mark and Luke and John (young John, I mean) and Mary Taylor and Juanita. I told him It would look like a straw ride, but he said, 'Who cares?" I'll have to admit that for a feller who's sweet on a girl that's goin' two thousand miles away where he'll likely never lay eyes on her again, Matthew Adam looked pretty well resigned. And not more'n three days ago he resembled a man Just comln' from the cemetery after buryln' his last relation; He's to drive the car with his father and mother and Miss Columbine and you, Nancy. I declare, If I wasn't quite so fleshy I'd squeeze In between on the front seat and go, too." "Why not go down on the truck?"

The station came in view, with an Impatient "delegation," as Jack called it. on the platform. All too soon a gigantic engine roared past the waiting crowd, and slowly stopped ; while, dazed and breathless, Nance found herself mounting steps into the pullman, a dusky porter armed with luggage leading her on, and Jack behind, stopping to call something to somebody. "Section eight This way, lady." From her window Nance looked out upon a sort of composite picture of that friendly gathering. Then, as the wheels turned, she caught the glimpse her eyes were seeking: Cousin Col umbine in her scarlet middy, with Matt close by, bareheaded as she had seen him first his hand slipped through the lady's arm protccting- - Solving School Clothes Problems Bj CIIERIE Dear Matt! She'd forgotten to tell him to look out for Cousin Columbine, but he knew. Something tightened In Nancy's throat The landscape blurred. Then Jack was saying: ."Thank heaven that's over! I never felt so so conspicuous In my life. Did rou kiss every member of the Adam family? I dunno but I did I I'm sure I kissed Juanita Tubbs by mistake, of course. And I believe I must have kissed Cousin Columbine three Isn't she the dandiest old times! sport, Nance?

"Listen," said Matthew.. Miss Columbine. It's not quite so awful as it seems, having her go.

This was the old, shy Matthew, hes no words with which to say this thing; but as she glanced up, puzzled, Columbine Nelson surprised a light upon his face that startled her.

Oft en travelers on these Islands have gone for ten days with nothing to drink but coconut milk. Also, the coconut palm furnishes, besides the copra of com merce, a strongly alcoholic toddy and a sticky sirup resembling treacle. The husks and shells provide fuel and the dried spathe Is excellent tinder. The shells serve as plates, spoons and water bottles. Mats made from the leaves are used for walls and for beds; the dried leaves, tied into bundles, give light as torches and Hares. The spines of the leaves are made into brooms and the central stalk provides a weak timber which Is put to a number of uses. The outer skin of this stalk is useful where a strong, tough rope Is required, as In lashing the gunwale of the canoe to the dugout log. The rope made from the husk fiber serves all general purposes, from house-tie- s to fish lines. A coarse covbase of the leaf, which at the at ering first glance looks like a roughly woven fabric, is made Into ttrainers and sieves. The actual trunk of the palm, although not very durable, is made into spears and walking sticks, or cut into logs for sitting platforms. The white, unbroken leaves, favorite ornaments among the Islands, serve many magical purposes in ceremonies. GOOD MILK EECOKD ff-s- will!"
