A Desert DisillusionStory for ftltae Faunnily Circle
By Rosa Wamock."In your ethnological researches
among prehistoric dwellings you atleast have an occupation pleasantlyfree from that alert up-to-datenessso Inseparably associated with mod-ern business methods," I suggested.
"So one would naturally sup-pose/V laughed the professor, "buteven fn our line we sometimes findthe modern sprit cropping outmost unexpectedly. My recent tripto the Blue mesa will illustarte.Persistent rumors had come to meregarding the continued finding Inthe vicinity of Antelope springs ofmany excellent specimens of an-cient Indian handicraft. With head-quarters at the springs, I madedally tours over the surroundingdesert in a powerful automobile.My Chauffeur was a morose butcapable Indian.
"On the morning of the fourthdayV requested that 1 be taken tothe nearest point where relics ofthe prehistoric inhabitants werelikely to be found. It was a hot,dusty ride, but I was at last re-warded by seeing upon the horizona castle-like table land, at whichmy guide pointed slgnifcantly.
"The car took the zigzag pathup the cliff at a bound, and I wasthankful when our careening
headway was stopped and we wereobliged to walk the remainder ofthe distance to the top.
"My guide did not seem visiblyImpressed by the scene of desertgrandeour that met our>yes at thesummit of the mesa. With evidentfamiliarity with the locality,through a narrow pass he horrled,and, turning abruptly, we cameupon a wide ledge, off whichopened at east a score of cavernsthat seemed to bear every evi-dence of having been constructedand pooped by ancient cliff dwell-ers. It seemed Incredible thatsuch things could exist so near tocivilization without having beenofficially reported. 1 ran hitherand thither among the dwellings,looking for any possible relics. Inmy engernass and enthusiasm Ihad forgotten completely my si-lent Indian, and it was with ashock a bit unpleasant that Icaught him calmly regarding mewith an amused smile. Beckoning,
i
that I should follow, he conductedme with deliberation through oneof the caves and Into a sort of opencourt protected on all sides by high,rocky walls. On the north side ofthis inclosure stood an ancientpeblo, apparently intact. With agasp I beheld smoke rising from avery modern, stove pipe that pro-jected through the adobe wall. MyIndian gave a low call like thethree soft notes of a wildpartridge,and stood waiting.
"A woman appeared at the door-way and approached us smiling.She was trimly dressed and ratherpretty. She may have been an In-dian. 'The relics are here, if youwill kindly step this way,' she an-nounced In a voice pleasantly mod-ulated.
"I entered the low-Celled roomwith a choking sensation. Rangedon shelves at every side were speci-mens of pottery, in form and coloramong the most' wonderful I hadever beheld. I marveled at theirperfect condition. 'It is the dry cli-mate,' said the little lady, smiling.'See, each piece is numbered. Ifyou desire to choose for your collec-tion, select by number arid they willbe sent to your eastern addresspromptly by express.'
"'Rut do you mean to tell methat this entire mesa is subject toprivate ownership?" I askedhoarsely.
" 'Yes, this place Is all the prop-erty of the hotel company, but itis only within the last two yearsthat they have done much In theway of conducting a souvenir de-partment for the benefit of thetourists,' she explained.
"My benumbed mind reeled, andI could scarcely control a frenzieddesire to laugh. Recklessly I gavemy order for these relics with aprice, whereupon a matter-of-factcash register jangled sharply uponthe startled air, and 1 stepped out-side In an effort to regain my com-posure.
" 'We have a splendid line of newpostcards that just came in lastweek,' said she, following me to thedoor.
"Turning, fled precipitately, ig-nominlously down tbe narrow path.
"Some days later, when I un-packed my wonderful collection ofrelics, I could but marvel attheir beauty and perfect copdition.Their design was undoubtedly an-cient. Their manufacture and tex-ture, however, evinced an art un-mistakably modern, and I have late-ly been led to entertain a growingsuspicion that the responsible arti-sans In this case reside no fartherwest than Zanesvillo!"

Ait Mtadhi Less Tlfoauni Tfofcir Repnlsiir ValineHILE in Now York a few weeks ago our Imyer secured the sample lines of
two of his best waist makers and to these 'were added such overs andsurplus stock as were on hands at that time, making altogether two of the finestassortments we have ever bought for less than value.
There are tailored styles and fancy ones, each in a great variety. The plain modelsare of fine linen, lawn, batiste, llnene finish fabrics, sheer, medium and heavy. Thefancy waists are of sheer linens. Swisses, mulls and batistes neatly finished with fine em-broideries, laces, tucking and hand embroidered fronts.
A few of the sample waists are a trifle rumpled and crushed, but none of them areseriously hurt and there's scarcely a one in the lot that willrequire a trip to the laundrybefore it can be used.
It's one of the most important waist events of the season, so important that we willdevote a large part of thegarment room space to the display of the garments on sale. Extra salespeople have been provided to furnishgood service for all who come.
The price list is an extensive one, containing garments of every grade. The list below gives details, pricesund values. 1 *
