Beatrix anil Dora were learning for
the? first time what It meant to be
strangers. They never had been
strangers in the home city where hos
pitable doom were opened in welcome
at their coming. Tills renting a tiny
cottage in Wellstown village was one
of Beatrix’s Ideas. Both girls were
studying ambitiously for their futufre
chosen careers.
It was Beatrix who heard the re
mark which first rankled and later
brought amusement. The two girls
wontiered vaguely, after a time of resi
dence elapsed, why their village neigh
bors fulled to return their overtures
of friendliness.
"I was leaving the post ofllce,” Bea
trix said, "and Miss Gallic, the post

that big lumber factory over iu Gas

was a millionaire, owned most .of the
town. Smith's a good universal name.
Jlow would you like an Uncle Henri?”
"Pine!” agreed Beatrix.
Merrily she ran for some village
view cards, and with a giggling ob
server, inscribed her first postal.

The richness of South American
bird-life Is due to the presence of the
Andes more than to any other one
thing. It Is the absence of groat
mountain chains In Africa, which ac
counts for the comparatively small
numbers of species of birds In that
continent. From base to summit, four
distinct zones of life—tropical, sub
tropical, temperate and alpine—are
found In the higher Amies, and each
zone has species which are confined
to it.
It Is not only the height of the An
des which nITects bird life. In places,
for hundreds of miles, this gigantic
range may appear as two or thro*
chains, each not less than 10.000 Of
11,000 feet In height, and these cli
matic walls ore as Impassable to the
species living In the tropical or sub
tropical valleys they Inclose ns though
they extended to the zenith. Isola
tion is, therefore, added to the fac
tors of climate and sedentariness In
the making of the species, and the
three combined have produced a great
er variety of bird life than Is found
In any area of similar extent in the
world. The American museum of nat
ural history Inaugurated in 1911 a bi
ological survey of the Andean region
with particular reference to Its bird
life. As n result of the collections
and field studies made, the museum
is now in possession of large codec- I ing j,
Hons and data from the more north- j
ern part of the chain.
Europe Is facing a serious shortage
of fuel, of all kinds. Coal, gas, gaso
line. wood, alcohol—all these fuels are*
lacking. The result Is that inventors
turned out In force to solve the
problem In new ways. A French

used. The advantages of this form are

heavily on the girl’s conscience. She
wished desperately that the prank had
never started. It must stop now and
with some explanation. But what I
cou’ld the honest explanation he? A
man was waiting on the steps of Rose
Lodge when she returned, a youngish
kindly-faced man with a quizzical
smile.
"Miss Fairfax?” he Inquired.
Beatrix wonderingty nodded.
"1 am Henri Smith of Gaston,” the
man appallingly announced. "I have
received several communications from
jr certain Miss ‘Trix’ of Wellstown. As
I spoil my name Henri, to distinguish
It from the other Henry Smiths, 1
could not think the address mistaken.
Yet 1 have no niece. So upon driving
through your village today I asked
your postmistress experiment ally, If
she could direct me to the niece of a
certain Henri Smith. Directly she
sent me hive. I’ll confess,” the man
added frankly, ."that I was curious
concerning the solution of the small
mystery.”
And then—the overburdened con
science of Beatrix found its relief.
Honestly she made confession.
“You cannot think more eonteinptn*-
ously of It all than I do myself,” she
ended. But Mr. Henri Smith was real
ly a great man. Great enough to un
derstand the humor of the circum
stance and to sympathize in Its hu
miliating outcome. So he sank back

porch, waiting to meet, he smilingly

he lmd returned to Gaston that a sec

Acres. The invitation began informal
ly "Dear Trlx,” and was signed "Your

“There Is no Aunt Elna—I’m an
eligible bachelor.”
