Answer: You would have to have it appraised by the proprietor of an antique store. Framed samplers are as interesting on the wall as piec- tures and I am particularly fond of seeing them hung in hallways. A. A: "Would it be safe to dry- clean my red Canton Crepe dress at home? It is beaded on front and sleeves," Answer: The home woman is gen- erally successful in washing such dresses in a basin of gasoline (doing the work out of doors, never near heat or flame). But beading compli- cates matters, for after the garment has hung on the line for several Y OU BUY WHEN!

At length he encountered the game-snares laid by McTaggart, the factor, and he stripped them sys- tematically and feasted on the prey they yielded. McTagart, missing his game, and suspecting the nearby foot- prints were those of the dog, his old enemy, started also a search for Ba- ree. CHAPTER XXV-Continued. It was the fifth day that Bush Mec. Taggart returned to his post. He was in-an ugly mood. Only Valence of the four Frenchmen was there, and it was Valence who kieard his story, and after ward heard him cursing Marie. She came into the store a little later, big- eyed and frightened, one of her cheeks flaming red where McTaggart had struck her. While the storekeeper was found the opportunity to whisper softs ly in her ear: "M'sieu Lerue has trapped a silver fox," he said with low triumph. "He loves you, mon ami, and he will have a splendid catch by spring--and sends you this message from his cabin up on The Little Black Bear With No Tail: Be ready to fly when the soft snows come!" Marie did not look at him, but she heard, and her eyes shone so like stars when the young store keeper gave her the salmon that he said to Valence, when she had gone: "Blue Death, but she is still beauti- ful at times, Valence!" To which Valence nodded with an d smile, CHAPTER XXVI By the middle of January the war between Baree and Bush McTaggart had become miore than an incident-- J{ more than a passing adventure to the beast, and more than an irritating hap- lll pening to the man. It was, for the time, the elemental raison d'etre of their lives. Baree hung to the trap- lll ive. He nacnted it like a devastating specie, and' each time that he sniffed the scent of the Factor from Lac Bain he was impressed still more }] strongly with the instinct that he was rt Wy = i Answer' Gasoline, benzine, chlo- roform or ether.

Answer: As I have said before, in this column, the housekeeper should allow $5 per person in her food bud- get. Of course if you arg to have a kitchen garden, or keep chickens, it could be done on less than $15. But it is never economy, in the long run, to cut down table expenses. Cut on carfare, clothes, amusements --anything else! Health comes first. Sometimes we put into doctors' bills what we save ina food budget.

Hold them in the steam from a boiling kettle of water and straighten them wi your fin- gers, then plunge the into cold water at once, to harden.

Baree no longer stood for the animal alone; he stood for Ne- peese. That was the thought that in- sisted-in-growing in -McTFaggartls ugly mind. Never a day passed now that he did not think of the Willow; never a night came and went without a vis. ioning of her face. He even fancied, on a certain night of storm, that he heard her voice out in the wailing of the wind--and less than a minute later he heard faintly a distant how! out in the forest. That night his heart was filled with a leaden dread. He shook himself. He smoked his pipe until the cabin was blue. He cursed Baree, and the storm--but there was no longer in him the bullying courage of old. He had not ceased to hate Baree; he still hated him as he had never hated a man but he had an even greater reason now for wanting to kill him. It came to him first in his sleep, in a restless dream, and after that it lived, and liv- ed--the thought that the spirit ofs Ne- peese was guiding Baree in the ravag- ing of his trapline! It was in January that McTaggart caught his first glimpse of Baree. He had placed his rifle against a tree, and was a dozen feet away from jf at the run up his spine. The man's hatred was different than the beast's, but perhaps even more implacable. With McTaggart it was not hatred alone. There was mixed with it an indefinable and superstitious | fear, a thing he laughed at, a thing he cursed at, but which clung to him as: time. It was as if Baree knew, and had come to taunt him; for when the Factor suddenly looked up Baree was standing lear from the dwarf spruce not twenty yards away from him, his white fangs gleaming and his eyes burning like coals. For a space McTaggart stared as if turned into y A stone. It was Baree, He recognized the white star, the white-tipped car, and his heart thumped like a hammer in his breast. Very slowly he began to creep "toward "his rifle. His hand was reaching for it when like a flash Baree was gone. This gave McTaggart his new idea. He blazed himself a fresh trail through the forests parallel! with his trap-line but at least five hundred yards distant from it. Wherever a trap or deadfall was set this new trail struck sharply in, like the point of a V, so that he could approach his line unobserved. By this strategy he believed that in time he was sure of getting a shot at the dog. Again it was the man who was reasoning, and again it was the man who was defeated. The first day that McTaggart followed his new trail Baree also struck that trail. For a little while it puzzled hira. Three times he cut back and forth between the old and the new trail. Then there was no doubt. The new trail was the fresh trail, and he followed in the footsteps of the Factor from Lac Bain, Metag- gart did not know what was happen. ing until his return trip, when he saw the story told in the snow. Baree had visited each trap, and without excep- tion he had approached each time at the point of the inverted V. After a week of futile hunting, of lying in wait, of approaching at every point of the wind---a period during which McTag- rt had twenty times cursed himseM nto fits of madness, ahother idea came to him. It was like an inspiration, and so simplé that it seemed almost incon- ceivable that he had not thought of it "| before. He hurried back to Post Lac Bain. The second day after he was on the trail at dawn. This time he carried pack in which there were 'a dozen strong wolf traps freshly dipped beaver oil, and a rabbit which he Rat snared the previous night. Now then he looked anxiously at the sky It was clear until late in the af when banks of dark clouds ing up from the east."Half an hour las ter a few flakes of snow began ; McTaggart let one of these dro the back of his mittened hand, and exe amined it closely.
