This parting was nothing to him. He had stayed to pay a debt, and now he was going home. He shook hands with the men, swept a dark fleeting glance over Nell, and rested his strange eyes upon Mercedes’ beautiful’ and agitated face. It must have 'been a, moment of intense feeling for the Spanjsh girl. She owed It to him that she had life and love and happiness. She held out those speak- ing slender hands.

Home—across the cactus and lava, through solemn lonely days, the silent, lonely nights, into the vast and red-hazed world of desola- tion. “Thorne, Mercedes, Nell, let's cllimb the foothill yonder and watch him out of sight,” said Dick. They climbed while the others re- turned to the house. When they reached the simmit of the hill Yaqui was riding up the far bank of the river. “He will turn to look—to wave good- by?" asked Nell. “Dear, he is an Indian,” replied Gale. From the height they watched him ride through the mesquites, up over the river bank to enter the cactus. His mount showed dark against the green and white, and for a long time he was plainly in sight. The sun hung red in a golden sky. The last the watch- ers saw of Yaqul was when he rode across a rldge and stood silhouetted against the gold of desert sky—a wild, lonely, beautiful picture. Then he was gone. Strangely It came to Gale then that he was glad. Yaqui had returned to his own—the great spaces, the desola- tion, the solitude—to the trails he had trodden when a child, trails haunted now by ghosts of his people, and ever by his gods. Gale realized that in the Yaqui he had known the spirit of the desert, that this spirit had claimed N} which was wild and primitive in him.

BRUSHES FOR HOUSEHOLD They May Be Divided Into Three | Classes, Which Are Bristle, Hair, and Fiber. There are two classes of brushes, those with bucks and those with- out. These come in bristle, in hair and in fiber. It is fiber and bristles that are of special interest in discussing household needs. The backless brush has the ad- vantage of being usable in any posi- tion and thereby being at léast twice ! as long-lived as the brush whose only ! working surface Is one side. These & brushes are maryelously made and the ! bristles, hair, fiber or fabric (mops) are so fastened in as to make a falling | bristle almost an impossibility. These ; brushies come ‘in’ every department of house life: toilef, bath, pantry, laun- dry, clothes, kifChen, halls and walls. | The Russian pony gives the best horser halr, and the wild boar gives the most | and best bristles.
