whether an acquaintance would prove
a good companion, there is one In-
fallible sign by which you can make
sure of the matter. When you talk
to him notice whether he tells you
first of something he likes or dislikes
if he is prone to air his dislikes you
may be sure he will not prove a very
cheerful companion. His mind is de-
structive. He Is more concerned with
pulling to pieces than with building
up. Such a person has a tendency to
shut up one’s mind or put it on its
guard against Impulses and Innova-

Chicago.—Field Museum of Natural
History at Chicago announce* the
early exhibition of a “magic log.” In
the quest of thia rare bit of wood a
collector risked his life in the steam-
ing Jungles of Bocae del Toro in west-
era Panama, inis intrepid adventures
is G. Proctor Cooper, War veteran
and forester. The story of the hard-
ships he has endured in his search,
such as tramping through miles of
knee-deep, yellow, slimy mud, shoe-
less part of the time, and braving the
perils of swamp fevers, to fall ex-
hausted for a short sleep in the mud,
unmindful of the attacks of mosqui-
toes and crawling, creeping things,
was revealed in a letter from Mr.
Cooper to Prof. Samuel J. Record, re-
cently made public at the museum.
Prized by Indians.
The magic wood—“magic'’ to the In-
dians of Panama, who impute to it
arvelous curative powers—is the
bloodwood cacique (pronounced kah-
see-key), one of the rarest woods in
the world, according to Professor
Record, who is research associate in
wood technology at Field museum
and a member of the faculty of the
Yale University school- of forestry.
It is scarcely more than a name to
white wen who previously have pene-
trated the region, and, even among
the Indians who prize and cherish it,
only tiie wisest can recognize IL says
Professor Record.
“Cacique” means chieftain and rep-
resents the esteem in which the In-
dians hold it. Bloodwood is descrip-
tive of its glowing ruby-and-black
coloration, in some lights suffused
with ii golden sheen. Prior to Mr.
Cooper's discovery of two logs on the
present expedition only one small
fragment no bigger than a man’s
linger, obtained by a timber cruiser
from a native and sent to Professor
Record at Yale, was known to exist
outside Panama.
Mr. Cooper relates hi; adventures as
follows:
“I have returned from the moun-
tains, and that is really more than I
thought likely at certain stages of the
trip. Honestly, I never had such
tough going in nil my travels in the Arden Blvd. Hollywood alif.

"You're a useless old thing," she
said impatiently. "Why don’t you go
off when there is some occasion for
you, and scare the Peeping Toms?"
Expecting Rand, who came at his
own caprice and kept her alert with
expectation, she was not startled
when, an hour Inter, there was a light
knock at her door. It wns past nine
o'clock, but as his hours always suit-
edible convenience. she only smiled
tolerantly at his tardiness as she
opened the door. But when she saw

little frightened cry, for which she
quickly apologized with t friendly
laughter.
"Oh, you startled me. I—! was ex-

I am glad to see you again."
"What luck to find you," Ronald
Ingram said with a warmth there was
no mistaking. "I had no idea you
would still be here. Yon are rather
outstaying the summer, are you not?"
“Well—yes—a little, perhaps. But
I was—quite ill, and I need—oh, a
gteat deal of rest." Her face flushed
with her feverish explanations, and
Ronald Ingram studied her keenly.
“So many of the summer people
have gone,” he said slowly. “I should
think you would tie afraid to stay on

“By George, you make my halt

“Oh, he was a gentle spirit. He
would not harm me.”
He smiled and dropped the subject.
He said he had come to Portland on
business, and had come to the island
with only a faint hope that he might
find her, or, failing to find her, to get
her address in the city. He said he
could not bear to drop the little ac-
quaintanceship, which to him bad
proved so sweetly charming.
Then he went quickly away, waving
back to her as she stood in the light-
ed doorway beneath the tall pine.
