Jimmy vowed to himself he'd get rich . .. and find Rose. . Easier vowed than done and years passed before Jim Rowan fin- ally landed in the Klondike . . to gain wide.reputation as a gambler, known as "The Michigan Kid." . . . An ugly story of a 20 hour card game with Col. Campbell, engineer, with stakes no limits. . . and suicide cf Campbell at the end . . . caused The Michigan Kid to sell his 'saloon and start "out." ... At Nome, Rowan came upon a meeting of Michigan folks scheduled so he attended. As an old man was leaving the meeting Jim .rtarted, leaned forward, his eyes fixed upon the stranger's bearded cheek . . . Now go on with the story.

Things Happen Too Swiftly Nowadays For People to Keep Their Diaries Written Up To Date EDMONTON.--The day of the diary - fs virtually past. This is the consen- sus among Edmonton citizens. i No longer do romantically inclined girls or methodical boys pen thelr daily doings under the heading "Dear Diary--". And why? Because things happen far too fast in this day and age to attempt to record them. Time. was, pioneers recalled, when questioned by a reporter, when Aunt Sophie's lawn social or the' first fleet. ing glimpse of the new "heart-throb" who just moved in next door were enough to fill at least one page of a chronicle-keeper"s log. Crowded Modern Life But today? "Gosh, I have too much trouble trying to keep track of one day's dates, let alone jotting down an account of them," flashed a college girl with a smile, "It would he kind of nice to look back over the year's happenings," said one girl. "I've started a diary several times, but after a week or two I drop- ped it. Too much trouble." Nearly all the people interviewed had at one time in their life under- taken the task, but had later aban- doned it. Crowded modern life has transmuted the old-fashioned diary in- to the more businesslike memo pad. Hassock Is Back In Home Favor Upholstery Materials Range From Satin to Leather; Fer .

In the bedroom it is placed at the foot of the bed and usually fal as. the spreads or draperies, It may have rows and rows of fringe hanging to the floor. Some are up- holstered in satin materials -and oth- ers in leather. They are very conven: ient and satisfactory for game rooms, too, and for other informal rooms where the family usually gathers. For modern interiors the hassocks get larger and larger--even four feet in diameter and placed in a corner 'of a living room, where the covering _might be fur cloth resembling leopard, tiger, bear or angora.

She was a little more fragile than he had pic- tured - her, but the reason for that was evident and it wrung his heart. Sacrifice Ten minutes after he saw her, heard her voice, looked into her eyes, he had ceased all regrets about that departed steamship. She was delighted to see the boy she had known, and with her own for three. Later she sought out Jim as he was strolling about the claim, "Father tells me that you have bought a complete outfit of supplies, and lumber for another cabin." "Yes. They'll be out to-morrow."

Cocktails, appetizers and relishes to the meal are as the frosting to the cake--the imaginative, glamorous flourish that makes a meal an out- standing event rather than a routine performance, : 4 It is only in recent years that the custom of starting the meal with a cocktail has gained such wide popu- larity. Soups used to be the accept- ed way of opening dinner but. the ease with which the modern house- wife can open a can of tomato juice or fruit cocktail is a good reason for the spread of this habit. Besides, we moderns eat less and lighter foods. Soups tend to fill one up too much to enjoy a good dinner whereas an appetizer just sharpens the appetite and lends an elegant touch to the meal. ' Too many housewives are prone to serve the same cocktail over and over again so we are giving a variety of ideas for appetizers which will brighten your meals and show your originality, FRUIT COCKTAILS may be made of plain or mixed fruit juices, tart combinations of fruits. and fruit juices, a single tart fruit such as grapefruit, served alone or a mixture of tart fruit and a fruit ice. or sherbet, .

These sports, he said, are aids to beauty but are not strenuous- enough to cause 'big, ugly muscles." British Columbia's mild climate gives its daughters a better chance to excel in these sports than -is allotted to girls of other provinces.» : Eisenhardt sald he himself, and probably most citizens of the prov- ince, have an aversion to 'unnatural ness of any kind." k They want a girl who is able to' converse intelligently on almost any TE subject, and who is equally grace- ful in the pantry as on the tennis court or the dance floor. In other words, British Columbians insist that thelr dream girls be able to cook, "not just use a. can opener," Eisenhardt de- clared. . ¥ Child Prodigies Are Admonished Norman Taurog, Famous Holly- wood Director, Warns Against Maternal Influence.
