A short time ago the station was formally dedicajed by the Boston company and immediately after the started making the Homestead By ELLA SAUNDERS Barbara walked up the Yeed- grown path and pushed open the back door of the little house. She stood there, looking out at the fami- liar scene with intense happiness in her heart. And yet it was not unmixed. with sadness, for this was her birthplace, and it was seven ycars since, a girl of eighteen, she had left it for a far- away city. i Now she had come home, Her auiit had left her enough money to live on in a very quiet way, and she meant to take up bee-farming. She had had enough of city life. She had come back, but her fafher and mother were dead, all whom she loved were dead, except Tom Way- land, and-- Bitter thoughts flooded her mind. Tom had been five years older than herself, and they had almost become engaged. But they had quarrelled, and Tom had gone West, and Bar bara had never heard from him again. Well, she had put Tom's memory aside, and she was not going to let it disturb her now. She went into the little house. Her trunk was to follow on the morrow, but she had bought a few things at the grocery store in the village, and she set to work like a methodical housewife, cleaning up. And there was an odd sense of Some one having lived in: the place. It was not that it was clean--she had written to one of the village women to clean up for her, and supposed this But there was that indescribable atmosphere of another Presence, and--she smelled tobacco. No doubt the woman's husband had come, she thought, or it might even be that some one had taken up Well, Barbara standing on her rights. It was her cottage, and every one would kaow now that she had returned t. She ate a fugal meal, but she was too weary to go over the house that evening. And she wanted to revive her memories by day. She went into her own little bedroom and flung her- self down on Jee bed without un- dressing, How peacerhl 'it was, with the view of the distant hills beyond the lush, fat country through which the river wandered. A bird was sing- ing. Barbara closed her eyes. She awoke with a start. She had heard footsteps in the house! She sat up, frightened. Some one was coming up the stairs. And it was man's footsteps. Al- ways timid, Barbare did not know what to do. It ocurred to her that ust be the man whose pipe she had smelled. Probably he had taken up his residence in the house. She must wait till. he had gone into his ,foom and then slip quickly out. But suppose it was her room he ! And--and now she smelled tobacce in her room. Fearfully she crouched upon the bed, listening. 'The man was carrying a candle. Its light came through the erack of the door. And the footsteps had reached the top of the stairs, He stopped, Barbara's heart beat 80, to her terror, she heard into her room. instant the door Opened.

A standard Speed Wagon was selected as the chassis upon which to mount the outfit. "Barbara, the house was sola ror taxes two years ago. I'd come home with money, and I bought it, dream- ing that some day you would return." He had set 'down the candle on a | chair.

Here Rub some into' the part with is the correct treatment: | good laun#ry soap well marks, cover the soaped French chalk, or even fnely scraped ordinary chalk would do. Place in an airy space; if in the sun, so much the better. Leave for about an hour and then repeat the process nd time, or even a third time 1 neces- sary.

Blowing Up Huge Icebergs. An iceberg which threatened to sink the Rive that cross the Atlantic has been blown' up. ' Such an iceberg is as dangerous as a floating mine. This one was smash- ed by a mine--two dangerous things cancelling one another, The icebérg was 350 feet long, and one of its two spires was 170 feet high.
