Man From the
North
By TESS FULTON
<£). by McClure N-ewrtpapar Syndicate
WNU Servica
DOLLY read the letter and tossed It
* carelessly to her roommate.
“Darling, here's a chance for one
of your Infernal practical Jokes," she
suggested, her cold eyes hiding In
their darkness a faint twinkle. “That’s
from Allan Dyer. I met him last sum
mer up North. He was good looking
enough but a bit rusty In appearance
—said he was camping on the lake
and he looked It; and besides, he was
poor. The man who Interests me Is
the boy who can pay the Walter's
check without looking ns If he won
dered how much It left him.”
Carol smiled as she picked up the
letter. “Your bright idea, Icy one, Is
for me to carry on your correspond
ence with him; is that It?"
“lie writes an Interesting letter, and
you can string him along; and when
I go up there next yenr, 1 can have
hint to play around with.*'
"Polly, you're heartless!”
“Mebbe so, little one, but this Is a
heartless age.”
Carol mused over the letter. It vrai
chatty and Interesting, and suddenly
she decided to answer it. Polly In
formed her, Immediately, that Allen
had never seen her handwriting, so
the hoax would work.
Carol wrote the reply, employing
some of Polly’s characteristic phrases,
amused and pleased herself at the way
her letter shaped Itself.
A week later, Allan’s reply came,
and Carol learned something of Ills
life. It seemed he was working In a
lumber camp, and the letter told of
his life there.
The letters began to Interest her
keenly, although she took care to keep
the discovery from Polly who found
the letters only mildly Interesting and
soon stopped reading them.
Slowly a personal note crept Into
the letters. Before she realized It,
the same mood was upon her.
"Here’s a nice situation!" Carol
told herself one evening. "Writing
Polly's letter to a chap who evidently
Is thinking of her tenderly, while I’m
beginning to think of him the same
way ! T'll drop him 1”
But she found It much easier to say
It than to do. It.
Polly left for a two weeks’ trip for
her firm, and with her bright, some
what cynical presence nbsent from the
room, Caro! found It easier to dream
and muse over the man to whom she
was writing.
Polly had been gone only a few days
when Carol went to the door to learn
from the maid that "A man from the
North" would like to see her.
Carol was stunned,.she Isn’t
here, Kate!”
Kate grinned. "He said If Polly
wasn’t liere, he liked to see any friend
pf hers.”
Carol thought a moment. "Send him
up, Kate," she said with decision, but
her mind was fluttering.
Carol went to the window. A long,
.powerful-looking roadster was at the
curb. "It can’t lie Allan,” she told
herself.
The door opened into their living
room, and a man, brown of face, and
almost filling the doorway, faced her.
"I’m sorry to learn that Polly I*
away, but glad that you are here." His
gray, fine eyes were friendly. “You
see, I’m right from the woods, hungry
for a good time, and I hope you will
run around with me a little—some
plays, dances, etc.”
Carol laughed Inwardly as she
thought of the joke on Polly.
They did play around—a gay, gor
geous week. He seemed to have plenty
of money that lie spent freely but
wisely, and he certainly was good com
pany.
“Oh, this Is awful I” Carol moaned
one night, as she tossed her evening
dress aside. "I'm In love with him
and he’s in love with Polly! And
when Polly gets here—Gosh! what a
mix-up!"
She saw no solution, but one came
the next evening. They were at a
corner tahle In one pf the delightful
places he know. He had been musing
a hit.
’•Carol, I was lonely up North-at the
camp! You see. my father, owns the
business, and 1 was up ’there winning
hack after a bad dose of pneumonia.

SNARLING WOLVES
NEAR KETCHIKAN
The experience of landing
among three snarling, howling
wolves, fighting twio yelping
dogs, was the experience of
Mrs. Marguerite Nystrom, now
in Ketchikan, while stationed
at View Cove, Dali Island last
winter, says the Chronicle.
For months she had been in
j teresited in Alaskan wolves,
! had hoped bo see them, asked
about them, but when she first
| saw three live wolves right
1 from the porch of her home she
I thought they were big police
I dogs.
| Mrs. Nystrom, her hus-band
and Superintendent D. C.
McDonald and Mrs. McDon
! aid are the only inhabitants of
| the lonely lime works and
quarry through the winter
Then there are two dogs,
Scrapper, Mr. and Mrs. Nys
tiom’s wire haired terrier, and
Mr. and Mrs. McDonald’s part
collie and part German police
dog, Chacon.
One afternoon when Mrs.
Nystrom was alone in the house
she suddenly heard a loud yelp
ing and howling in the yard.
When she looked out she saw
Scrapper and Chacon mixed up
in a fight with what she
thought were one black and
two brown police dogs.
Running back into the house,
she grasped her .38-.40 rifle,
which had five shells in it.
She fired first from the porch,
r.ot taking careful aim and then
rushed cut into the yard.
When she fired and ran out
the fighters separated, two |
wolves cornering Chacon on
the dock, about 15 feet to one
[ side of Mrs. Nystrom, and the
other attempting to do away
with the little terrier which
was up against a fence about
15 feet to the other side of her.
Attempting to rescue the
dogs from what she still
thought were police dogs, she
first fired to the right, then to
.he left, not taking careful aim.
The letters that came, so cheery,
amusing, pulled me out of dark hours;
T made up my mind that the girl who
wrote them should play with me and
he with me all the rest of my life. Now
are you willing?"
Carol ceased to breathe. “Rut—my
dear—I—how did you know I wrote
the letters? I—really—"
A strong, steadying hand lay upon
her trembling one. “Through a friend
I learned that Polly hnd gone on a
business trip, but the letters came
from your address Just the same; and
besides, the last of the letters sounded
to me—well—as 1 know you now," he
said gently.
"Rut Polly—" she began.
“The point of It Is—do you care a
bit for me?" he said quietly.
The somewhat dizzy world around
her cleared. She was looking Into the
strong hut tender face of the man she
loved. She let her hand turn and
clasp his.
"Of courso I do, Allan. 1 have since
your first letter arrived."
Close Measurement
The thickness of the glass wall of
a radio tube or electric light bulb can
be measured without breaking the
glnss, by means of an optical thick
ness gauge.
! However, the wolf at? the fence
loped off into ttte'woocls up the
hill as though it might have
been-hit, but the ethers kept
fighting Chacon on the dock.
Mrs. Nysfrom emptied the
gun at the other two wolves,
buit it was not until Mr. Mc
Donald, yelling loudly, came
up the path from the power
plant toward the fyouse that
the other two ran off., Mr Mc
Donald had only an axe in his
hand. He called Mirs. Nys
trom’s attention to the wolves
running away and it was only
then that she learnedithat she
had seen her first wolves.
She also found that she had
shot off the lower aerial' wire
from the radio telephone.
View Cove is about 90 miles
west of Ketchikan,
