Globular Lightning.
Yesterday the inhabitants of Lewisham
were provided with a specimen
of that curious phenomenon known a s
""globular lightning."" It is what is
commonly called the ""fire ball,"" and
aa it persists for several seconds it is
obviously of a totally different character
from any other form of lightning.
It is much less brilliant than
ordinary lightning, and its brightness
appears to be that of iron at the ""red
hot"" stage.
It is not, as some accounts might
lead ono to infer, a solid missile, but
it is always spherical and appears to
fall from a thunder cloud by its own
gravity, sometimes rebounding after
striking the ground.—London Globe.
When the Fish Exploded.
Somebody discovered that fish a r e
fond of gasoline, and this led to t h e
Idea of soaking worms in gasoline In
order to make them more alluring
when used for bait.
Mark the result.
Two of those gasoline-tempted fish
exploded in the frying-pan, and broke
the kitchen window, and blew t h e
cook's face full of mashed potato, and
hurled the teakettle into the flour
barrel, and painted the kitchen ceiling
with stewed tomatoes.
Call It a lying world and let It go at
that.
Then It Happened.
""What made you think he would
propose to me?""
""Why, when I refused him he said
he didn't care what became of h i m ;
but perhaps ho wasn't serious.""—
Houston Post.
This Is a
Good Breakfast!
Instead of preparing a

A cup of Postum,
Such a breakfast is pretty
sure to win you.

HOW TO OPERATE ROAD DRAG
There Are Few Periods During Year
When Uee of Implement Will
Not Prove Beneftolal.
The surface of the average oountrj
road should be covered In one round
with the drag. One horse should be
driven on the Inside of the wheel
track and the other on the outside,
the drag beta* set, by means of the
chain, so that (t is running at an
angle of about 45 detjreM with the
wheel track, and working toward the
center of the road. In the spring
when the roads are mora likely to be
rutty and soft It la generally better to
go over the road twloe or mora.
The drag should be floored with
boards which are separated by open
•paces of sufficient width so that the
dirt which falls over will rattle
through.
f On roads with heavy traffic the drag
should be used much oftener and with
more car a than on roads with light
traffic.
The distance from the drag at
which the team is hitched affects the
cutting. A long hitch permits the
blade to cut deeper than a short hitch,
likewise a heavy doubletree will cause
the cutting edge to settle deeper than
a light one.
There are very few periodB of the
year when the use of the drag does
not benefit the road, but It does the
Excellent Road Drag.
best work when the soil Is moist and
yet not too sticky. This is frequently
within a half-day's time after a rain.
When the earth is in this state it
works the beat, and the effects of
working it are fully as beneficial as
at any other time.
So much has been written and said
pertaining to the great benefits from
the use of the road drag that many
people beginning the use of It become
discouraged before they are well started.
They should not feel thus as it
often takes a whole season for the
road to become properly puddled and
baked to withstand the rains and
traffic. After a road has been worked
with a drag only a short time it is not
well to expect It to stand up to heavy
traffic during a continued damp spell
without being affected. However, it
will take far heavier traffic than most
earth roads receive to more than scuff
up the surface.
It is not well to consider the benefits
from a good road as solely confined
to heavy traffic, for there 1B no
doubt but that the time saved to light
vrhiclea and the greater pleasure derived
from their use over good roads
far surpasses the economy in heavy
hauling.
Good Road Makes Free Man.
A farmer living on a good road is a
free man. Ho ia not dependent on
weather conditions. Ho is able to sell
liia stock and grain and fruit at the
best market prices. The railroads
havo to serve the man who can get his
stuff to a ahippiiig point any day in
the year.
All cowa do not like the samo kind
of food, neither will they do so well
as they would on noma other kind.
Varieties of Sweet Pea.
( Sweet peaa have 86 divisions and
tome 300 RUbdivisiona. In California,
[where almost all the flower seeds are
grown, one farm of 500 acres is given
up to tho production of sweet peas
alone. Tho total production yearly is
about. 350,000 pounds, and even when
this amount is augmented by the yield
from smaller farms, it is almoBt impossible
to meet the demand. Sweet
peas are the most popular flowers in
America for home gardens, except the
nasturtiums, and even these cannot
always compete with the sweet peas.
Kill Woodchucks.
Kill out woodchucks in cultivated
fields by patting carbon bisulphide In
a hole, closing all other holes and
smothering the pests. Keep the bisulphide
away from Are and don't Inhale
It.
\ Good Investment.
j Money spent for good roads is as
(good an investment for improving the
farm as is money put into stock sheds,
grain cribs, fences, seeds or anything

A Shipping Error.
The young Duchess of Westminster,
wife of the richest peer in England,
recently gave birth to her third child,
a daughter. Thus there 1H no heir to
the immense Grosvenor fortune. Earl
Groavenor, the duchess' second child,
having died at the age of four.
Apropos uf all this, a rather cruel
atory Is being told In Newport about
I Lady Ursula Grosvenor, the eighth
year-old daughter of the young
duchess.
, A friend, the story goes, called at
Eaton Hall, and as she sat in the
drawing-room, little Lady Ursula entered.
""Oh, good afternoon,"" she said
gravely. ""Mamma can't see any one
,today. She's upstairs with the new
'baby. They sent her, you know, u girl
when she'd ordered a boy, and she's
so upset that she's quite 111.""
Active Possession.
Guinevere, aged four, was going out
to walk with a young lady, of whom
she was very fond. As they opened
the street door they were met by a
swirling cloud of dust, blown up from
the thoroughfare.
""Keep your lips tightly closed, Owen,
or you'll get your lungs full of microbes,""
warned the young lady.
Guinevere pondered a moment and
then, looking up, demanded:
""What are your erobea?""—National
Monthly.

The Pinckney mill dam controversy
has broken into Circuit Court again.
It will he remembered that the mill
owners claimed that the water had
been there fcr fifteen years and could
hold the land but the Supreme Court
held that they could not deprive a
man of his property in that way and
ordered the mill dam lowered. The
right if any, which can be acquired by
water which runs through or across
land which it reaches thru artificial
drains wholly or in part, is only the
right of passage and it is incumbent
upon the parties who maintain such
aitificial passages to such land to protect
the owner thereof from all damages
which may result from the oyerflow
of bis land or depriving him of
using it as he desires by the construcion
of such passageways through or
across such property, as shall maintain
the owner thereof harmltss in the
possession ot his property.
Allred Monks, whose land was
flowed while the dam was raised, has j
commenced suit against Frank M.
Peters, the mill owner, in circuit court

his attorney.—Livingston Tidings.

Thief Shoots at Heads of Passenger*
Looking From Windows As He
Goes to the Express Car.
In a desperate attempt t o hold up
a westbound Colorado Midland train
four milea west of Divide, In Colorado,
a bandit was instantly killed by a
rock thrown by Engineer Frank
Stewart after the engineer had been
shot in the leg.
Sterling and Charles Martin, two
young men who were found near the
scene of the hold-up, are held for investigation
aa to their complicity in
the robbery. Sterling was slightly
wounded in the head by a bullet.
The robber crawled over the tender
as the train slowed at a siding to
meet the eastbound train. As he stopped
the train Stewart turned to see
his. fireman, Paul Uachman, standing
with his hands above his head and
heard the robber say:
""Put up your hands or I'll blow
your head off.""
The robber then forced both men
to leave the engine and marched them
before him to the express ear.
According to Stewart, the robber
ordered them to tell the express messenger
that they were in peril of their
lives; that the train had been held up
and that the robber was determined
to have the money in the express car.
Stewart states that the robber fired
several shots at the heads of passemgers
who looked out to see what was
happening.
""When we got to the express car,""
said Stewart, ""my fireman dashed under
the car and crawled to the other
side. The robber leaned under the
car to shoot at him, and when he took

Hsd Been III for the Last Throe or
F=ur Years.
P. Dean Warner"", speaker of the
house of representatives in \ 18(37 and
foster father of Guv. Wariier. died
at hia home in Farmington at the
age of SS years, from ills incident to
age. The governor was present when
the end came.
Although not forced to take to his
bed, Mr. Warner had been In feeble
health for several weeks and his
death at this time was not entirely
unexpected. He never entirely recovered
from an illness in 1906.
During the past week when his condition
was considered such aa to require
considerable attention, the governor
spent much time with his father,
coming almost daily from his summer
home at Cass lake, near Pontiac.
P. Dean Warner was born in New
York state, and came to Michigan
with his parents when he was 2 years
old. The trip from the east was made
by boat to Detroit, and thence overland,
via Dearborn, to Farmington.
The latter part of the trip took three
days, and Mr. Warner was the second
white child in this section, the
other one having been born two days
before his arrival.
When a young man Mr. Warner
engaged in the mercantile business,
and operated a general store here until
about 25 years ago, when he was
succeeded by his son. Later the elder
Warner established a private bank,
known as the Warner bank, which
was later merged with the institution
known as the Exchange Hank of
Farmington. He was president of the
bank at the time of his death. In 1854,
18G5 and 1867 he was a member
of the Michigan house of representatives,
being elected speaker his last
term. He was a member of the constitutional
convention the same year.
In 18G9 he was elected senator from
this distriict.
Besides the son, Mr. Warner leaves
a widow, three years his junior.

The dead robber wore a cloth mask

He was armed with two revolvers,
which had evidently been unused for
some time. There was nothing on his
body to identify him.
There was no unusual shipment of
money in the express car, but the
bandit told the fireman that he intended
to rob the passengers as well

Father of 10 Goes Up For Polygamy.
On his plea of guilty of the charge
of polygamy, Christopher Lago, 45
years old, was sentenced at Port Huron,
to serve from one and a half to
five years In Jackson prison.
Lago had two wives, Mrs. Maud
Lago, of 46'9 Macomb street, Detroit,
being the first one, and the complainant.
She is the mother of 10 children,
six of whom are living.
Lago married a Port Huron woman
a year ago, was arrested at Flint and
taken to Detroit for trial. The case
was thrown out of court there for lack
of jurisdiction and re-started at Port
Huron.

Curties Beats Fast Mail Train.
Racing with a fast Lake Shore mail
train, Glenn H, Curtiss, the Hammondsport,
X. Y., aviator, drove his
bi-plane over the water from Cedar
Point to Kuelid liearh, in Ohio, an
airline distance of fio miles, eomplcting
his 120-mile round trip flight and
establishing an unquestioned world's
record for ovor-the-water flights. Incidentally,
he boat, the train into Clove
land a full 17 minutes.
Encountering contrary air currents,
Mr. ^ Curtiss was unable to maintain
a high rate of snoed, taking 1 hour
and 42 minutes for the flight. The
actual distance traversed, estimated
at. the United States hydrographie office,
was 04% miles.
Leprosy Cure Is Near.
Experiments being made on Molokai,
the leper island, are likely to lend
to the discovery of a serum which
will cure the malady.
Three surgeons of the United
States public health and marine hospital
service, after months of unremitting
toil, have grown lepra bacilli
in pure culture outside the human
body and in tiny glass tubes In the
laboratory the loathsome germs are
now growing in their third generation.
This achievement of the scientists at
the government's leprosy investigation
station Is the first step in the
production of a vaccine nr a serum
for the cure or prevention of leprosy
Dr. Donald II. Currie, director of
the station; Dr. Walter R. Brinkerhoff
and Dr. H. T. Hollmann are the
men who have grown the cultures.

Slightly Confused.
All of us become confused and all of

the preparation of an old negro
preacher's sermon was the greatest

had reached his ""Twenty-third and

Just Sensible Food Cured H i m .
Sometimes a good, healthy commercial
traveler suffers from poorly selected
food and is lucky if he learns
that Grape-Nuts food will put him
right.
A Cincinnati traveler says: ""About
a year ago my stomach got. in a had
way. I had a, headache most of tha
time and suffered misery. For several
months I ran down until I lost, about
'i0 pounds in weight and finally had to
give up a good position and go home.
Any food that I might use seemed to
nauseate me.
""My wife, hardly knowing what, to
do, one day brought home a package
of Grape-Nuts food and coaxed me to
try it. I told her it was no use hut
finally to humor her I tried a little,
and they just struck my taste. It
was the first food I had eaten In nearly
a year that did not cause any suffering.
""Well, to make a long story short, I
began to Improve and stuck to Grape-
Nuts. I went up from 135 pounds in
December to 194 pounds the following
October.
""My brain Is clear, blood all
right and appetite too much for any
man's pocketbook. In fact, I am thoroughly
made over, and owe it all to
Grape-Nuts. I talk so much about what
Grape-Nuts will do that some of the
men on the road have nicknamed m e
'Grape-Nuts,' but I stand today a
healthy, rosy-cheeked man—a pretty
good example of what the right kind
of food will do.

CHAPTER X.
Miss West's Request.
The surprising change in h e r held
me speechless. All the animation of
the breakfast table was gone; there
was no hint of the response with
which, before, she had met my nonsensical
sallies. She stood there,
white-Iipped.unsmiling, Btaring down
the dusty road. One hand was clenched
tight over some small object. Her
eyes dropped to it from the distant
road, and then closed, with a quick,
indrawn breath.
Her color came back slowly. Whatever
had caused the change, she said
nothing. She was anxious to leave a t
once, almost impatient over my deliberate
masculine way of getting my
things together. Afterward I recalled
that I had wanted to explore the barn
tor a horse and some sort of a vehicle
to take us to the trolley, and
that she had refused to allow me to
look. I remembered many things
later that might have helped me, and
did not. At the time, I was only completely
bewildered. Save the wreck,
the responsibility for which lay between
Providence and the engineer of
the second section, all the events of
that strange morning were logically
connected; they came from one cause,
and tended unerringly to one end.
jTut the cause was buried) the end
not yet in view.
Not until we had left the house
well behind did the girl's face relax
its tense lines. I was watching her
more closely than I had realized, for
when we had gone a little way along
the road she turned to me almost petulantly.
""Please don't stare so a t
me,"" she said, to my sudden confusion.
""I know the hat is dreadful. Green always
makes me look ghastly.""
""Perhaps it. was the green."" I was
unaccountably relieved. ""Do you
know, a few minutes ago, you looked
almost pallid to m e ! ""
She glanced at me quickly, but I
was gazing ahead."" We were out of
sight of the house, now, and with
every step away from it the girl was
obviously relieved. Whatever she held
in her hand, she never glanced a t it.
But she was conscious of it every second.
She seemed to come to a decision
about it while we were still in
sight of the gate, for she murmured
something and turned back alone, going
swiftly, her feet, stirring up small
puffs of dust at every step. She fastened
something to the gatci post—
I could see the nervous haste with
which she worked. When she joined
me again it. was without explanation.
Put, ihe clenched ringers were free
now, and while she looked tired and
worn, the strain had visibly relaxed.
We walked along slowly in the general'
direction MM,. 5 0 ^

Twenty years atfo the pant JUIIK,
Mr. and Airs. F. L. Andrews purchased
the 1'iuekney DISPATCH and h.tvw
published is ever since under t be name
of K. L Andrews & Co. They huve
dunnw ihat time iwade many friend*
and it is with some reluctance that
they lay aside the v.ork that
in many ways has been very pleasant
and in a measure profitable.
They have graduated from the amall
print shop ovjr *\ hat was formerly1
Teeple & Cadwells hardware store to a
home of their own on the corner of
Main ami Mill streets where they Fiave,
held tor'h for several years,
For the past lew years, • however.
owiny: to the poar health of Mr. Audrews,
it has become imperitiye that he
giva up the strenuous lahor, incident
to the weekly issuance of the paper
and Mond ly papers were made out
whereby the ownership of the DISPATCH
changed hands, Roy Caverly of Detroit
being th-e purchaser of the printing
plant, uood will and subscription
list of the Pinckney DISPATCH.
All advertising accounts up to and
including Sept. 1 will be payable to
F. L. Andrews & Co., after which time
they will be payable to the new owner
of the DISPATCH. All subscription accounts
will be payable to the new firm
who fiills all contracts on subscription
accounts, having purchased th 3 entire
subscription list as represented by our
books.
Mr. Caverly, the new proprietor,
needs no introduction to most of our
readers as he was formerly a Pinckuey
boy and began to learn the printers
trade with us several years ago.
He was for some time on a Dundee
paper and later was foreman of the
Livingston Republican for about three
years where he has many friends. For
so.ne time he ha* been employed by
the Peninsular Fngrayitig Co,, where
they do fine printing. As a printer,
we can recommend him most highly
and with the excellent job department
of the DISPATCH back of him he will
be able to suit the most fastidious
patrou.
We desire to thank all who have
>tood so nobly by us during the past
twenty years and shall always remerah
»T the kindnesses. We a^k that the
same courtesy be extended to the new
proprietor and we believe that your
confidence will not be misplaced.
Yours,
F. L. ANDREWS & Co.

the botlom of the park. Then, while

yon should peep at the card. Having
fixed it in your memory, you count
100. adding to that the number of
spots on Die card, multiply this by u2
and divide by four because lhere a r e
1)2 cards in the deck and lour suits
of cards. 'fake the result, s u b t r a c t

It was, and then dr.-.w it from the hot

A m e r i c a n s protest a g a i n s t t h e

coercion and a r e not in s y m p a t h y with
t h e t h r e e - t e n t h s who h a v e gained control
and force their m e t h o d s .
We find that a few designing m e n
have seized control of t h e American
F e d e r a t i o n of Labor, just as s o m e
s h r e w d c a p i t a l i s t s have secured control
of some railroads and o t h e r int
e r e s t s and a r e now t w i s t i n g and turning
them into m a c h i n e s for personal
profit a n d fame.
T h e s e men cunningly plan to force
w o r k m e n to join and pay 25 to 75
i c e n t s a m o n t h in fees.

T h e n they work up e n t h u s i a s m
about the ""brotherhood of m a n "" a n d
other talk which experience h a s
shown excites t h e e m o t i o n s of workmen
and thoy a r e induced to join and
pay fees to tho leaders.
The 5000 w o r k m e n in Rattle Creek
are, as a rule, free from t h e d i c t a t e s
of the great L a b o r T r u s t and still get
Ihe highest wages in Michigan. If
thoy had yielded to the smooth talk
of the a g e n t s of the t r u s t and Joined,
they would pay in fees from $1250.00
to $2000,00 a month to t h e big t r u s t
and be subject to s t r i k e o r d e r s a n y
t i m e .
Now thoy save that and put t h e
money into h o m e s a n d family comforts
But t h e m a n a g e r s of tho American
F e d e r a t i o n of Labor h a v e w o r k e d
hard and long to h a r n e s s them.
Tho t r u s t h a s sent small bales of
money and last winter 18 "" o r g a n i z e r s ""
to tie up B a t t l e Creek. They hired
halls, gave p i c t u r e shows, s m o k e r s ,
etc,, as an i n v e s t m e n t , looking to rich

them tied hand and foot.

LACK OF MONEY
Waa a Godsend in This Case.
It, is not. always that a lack of
money is a benefit.
A lady of Green Forest, Ark., owes
her health to t h e fact, that she could
not pay in advance the fee demanded
by a specialist to treat her for
etomach trouble. In telling of h e r
case she says:
""I had been treated by four different
physicians during 10 years of
stomach trouble. Lately I called on
another who told me he could not cure
me; that I had neuralgia of the stomach.
Then I went to a specialist who
told me I had catarrh of the stomach
and said he could cure me in four
months but would have to have his
money down. I could not raise t h e
necessary sum and in my extremity I
was l » i to quit coffee and try Postum.
""So I stopped coffee and gave Postum
a thorough trial and the results
have been magical. I now sleep well
a t night, something I had not, done
for *>, long time; t h e pain In my stomacb
Is gone a n d I am a different
woman.
'I dreaded t o quit coffee, because
eTery time I had tried to stop it I suffered
from severe headaches, so I continued
to drink it although I had reason
to believe It waa Injurious to me,
and was t h e cause of my Rtomach
trouble and extreme nervousness. But
when I had Postum t o shift to it was
different
""To my surprise I did not miss coffee
when I began to drink Postum.
""Coffee had been steadily and surely
killing me and I didn't fully realize
what was doing it until I quit and
changed to Postum.""

""The investigation h a s called attention
to the manner in which this land
grafting and grabbing has been going
on, and for one thing, there will be
no more Indian land grafting or
grabbing. This plundering of Indian
property will be stopped. No more
•will t h e Indian be permitted to sign
away his rights. The government will
see to that. No more big fees tor attorneys
and no more lobbying in
Washington. Indian affairs will be
conducted properly hereafter.
""The government will sell the land
for t h e Indians. T h e government will
employ t h e necessary attorneys for
the Indians and they will be paid a t
a rate fixed or approved by the government.
The lands will be placed on
the market in September. They will
be sold and the Indians will get their
share from the sale.

WOMAN UNIQUE FIGURE
IN FAIR MANAGEMENT
M I M Zue McClary, Midway Expert,
Haa Charge of AH Midway Shows.
The thousands who stroll along the
BCMway during the coming State
Fair, fol&K intu the shows here and
there, entering into the fun which
runs riot on all sides at such nn exhibition,
will be surprtaed to know
that u wujuun has charge of and la responsible
for all the exhibitions on
the Midway.
Miss Zue McClary occupies the
unique [iosition of being the most ex
pert Midway manager j n the world
today. A queer business for a wom
an, many say, yet Miss McClary In
the last five years haa built up a reputation
second to none in the world,
as a sxiccessful Midway manager.
The Stuie Ftiir management turned
tile entire Midway over to Miss Mc-
Clary several months ago, and she
has been working on it ever since,
•electing the best shows possible to
be had and giving the matter her personal
attention so as to present a
well-balanced Midway and at the
same time furnish entertainment
which will please and be popular
with the thousands of State Fair visitors
the week of Sept, 19-24th.
The results of her efforts will be
judfcod during the Fair, and U la Lflbfl
to predict lhat the public w^l eoafit""
away from the Fair with <.n exalte*
Idea of woman's ability in this pe*
culiav line of endeavor. No fake or
questionable shows will be allowed,
Bays Miss McClary; only those holding,
and entitled to hold, good records
for giving value received for the
public's money have been engaged.
The days of fake shows, so far as
the Michigan State Fair is concerned,
have passed, and only legitimate, entertaining
and instructive shows will
be shown, presenting the most famous
performers in the world and
giving more good hgArty laughs to the
minute than any other congregation
of shows ever displayed within the
borders of the state. Fun, unalloyed
pleasure and jollity, is the mainspring j
of all Midways, and so it will be with
the Michigan State Fair's Midway.
Miss McClary is thoroughly conversant
with all sorts, kinds and conditions
of entertainments, and ihe will
furnlah onlv the beet.

The city depurtiiieut uf public health
sjiveis a tlaiely and needed warning tu
those leaving the city fur their vacations
to avoid places where there are
many tiles. Those who follow this ad
vice will avoid places which are uncleanly,
which allow food and garbage
tu be tiu exposed as to attract and feed
the flies, says the Philadelphia Press.
They will avoid places where stables
and dwellings are In near vicinity, as
tho exposed manure Is the choice
breeding place of thousands and even
millions of flies. In other words, to
avoid disease conveying flies avoid
places where they penult flies to
breed and feed. Formerly the conditions
which multiply files and the
flies themselves were considered objectionable
but endurable. Now the
patient toleration of flies Is known to
be a heedless trifling with the health
and life of human beings. Disease
(germs are for the most part innocuous
to man, until through some convenient
medium they are conveyed to his system.
This purveyor of disease is the
(fly. His guilt has been proved to a
demonstration. His capacity for carrying
on his feet from foul and putrescent
sources the bacteria of disease
has been recorded by gelatin plates on
•which he has been made to alight and
have proven his guilt.
The raisin growers of Fresno county,
California, are trying to promote
the consumption of raisins by establishing
""raisin day,"" on which all
patriots who believe In patronizing
home enterprise and consuming home
productions are expected to Indulge In
raisin cakes and puddings, raisin
ibread, etc. The boys and girls will
fall In line for this, and as they are
the best consumers of things sweet, it
would seem to be good policy to
awaken the enthusiasm of young eaters.
Parents are now busy striving
ito get enough of things more staple
than raisins, which would be adopted
jgenerally If they could be made to
take the place of meat, eggs and other
products. Moreover, It Is suspected
that if all were to do as the raisin
growers desire there would bo a boom
In the price'as a result of the boom In
t h e demand.
Smokers who are polng to France
should know that, now the French duties
on tobacco and cigars have been
Increased, travelers entering France
are allowed to bring Into the country
-free of duty only ten cigars, 20 cigarettes,
or 1% ounces of tobacco, and
this must be on their person, or In
their hand luggage examined at the
•frontier. The customs officials are
fully entitled to confiscate or tax any
quantity of tobacco or cigars however
email which may be found In the
heavy luggago of passengers sent under
seal to a terminal station (St.
Lazare or Gare du Nord) and examined
there, and Just now they are
ivery strict.
The British commercial attache at
Yokohama reports that there has been
a sudden development at Tokyo and
.Yokohama in the use of solid rubber
tires for jlnrlkishas, and the adoption
of the new tire promises to become
general in Japan. The utilization o(
rubber and its products for every con
ceivable purpose Is so rapidly swelling
the demand that there will have
to be a corresponding augmentation
of tho annual crop or prices will
bound to prohibitory heights. The
world will shower wealth on the Inventor
who produces an artificial rub-
T)er that will give service approaching
t h a t of the genuine article.
Misfortune seems to follow the Zeppelin
concern. Hard upon the recent
disasters to several of the flying machines
come the explosions in the
works at Frledrlehahafen, resulting In
•erlous damage to property and the
death of one man and the injury of a
number of other*. Still, German determination
is of the holdfast ord^r,
and it is quite likely that there will
be persistent effort toward perfecting
the Zeppelin principle to the point
where present perils will be minimized.
A man and hlH wife are demanding

Manufacturing Cities Gained at the
Expense of Agricultural Communities—
Means One Mor»
Member of Congress.
Despite the fact that the census returns
from 2U counties in the state
of Michigan show a decrease during
the last decade, the state has a population
of 2,S1U. 173 in 191U as compared
with 2.42U.982 in 1900 and 2,-
09S,N89 in 1890. The increase from
1900 to 1910 is 3^9,191, or 1G.1 per
cent, while the increase during the
preceding decade was but 15.0 per
cent, or 327,093.
Officios of the census bureau attribute
the lulling off in the population
of so many counties In the state
to the fact that those who Ivtve previously
lived in the suburbs, attracted
by the inducements held out to
them by the manufacturing centers,
have movt'd into the large cities. For
instance, Wayne county, in which Detroit
is situated, shows an increase
in population during the oast ten
years of 1S2.797, while these counties
not dependent upon more thitkly populated
centers a1-! show decreases.
Those Which Decreased.
The L'ti comities which show decreases
arc as follows: Antrim, Arenac,
Branch, Cass. Clinton, Eaton,
Gratiot, lliillsdale, lona, Iosco, Lake,
Lapeer. Lenawee. Livingston, Macomb,
Manistee, Mecosta. Menominee,
Midland, Montcalm, St. f a i r , Sanilac,
Shiawassee, Tuscola, Van Huron and
Washtenaw.
Most of these, it will be noticed,
are the populous counties in the
southern part of the state, where
agriculture is the principal occupation,
and the ones which would be
most affected by the movement of
the young men of the farms to the
factories of the big cities.
The total losses of these 2(1 counties
amount to but 27.4S'.', which is
hardly more than the gain of the city
of Flint alone. 25,477. In eight of
them. Antrim Arenac. Iosco, Lake.
Manistee, Menominee, Midland and
Mecosta, the decrease can bo ascribed
to the tailing off in the lumber
industry. The greatest decreases,
however, are in the counties whose
bulk of population is engaged In agricultural
pursuits, as follows: Branch,
2,2rir,; Clinton, 2,007: Kaion, 1.1(19;
Gratiot, 1.009-. l.np<'pr, i(fi(is; Livingston,
L92K; St. Clair, 2.S89; Sanilac,
1,12.1; Washtenaw, .3.047. All of these,
it. will he noticed, are within easy
reach of the one other of the three
automobile centers of the state, Detroit,
Flint, or Lansing,
It is also noticeable that only one
of the upper neninsula counties, Menominee,
shows a decrease, the others
show substantial gains,
Michigan stood eighth among the
states in the matter of population in
1000, and will probably maintain her
relative rank in this year's census.
Another Member of Congress.
Despite the apparent unfavorable
showing of Michigan on the whole,
the state will be entitled to an additional
member of congress by the official
population returns, no matter
what apportionment, may he agreed
upon by the next, house.
More Census Figures.
Tho population of Lansing is 2.1,220,
nn increase of 11,711, or &0.4 per cent,
as compared with 10,1ST) in 1900.
The population of Saginaw Is r>0,-
niO, an increase of 8,1S,""1, or If) per
cent, as rom:»nred with 12,2,1:1 in
1900.
The population of Bay City is 4.V
100, an increase of 17.f>3S, or 02,.5 per
cent, as compared with 27.02S in 1000.

the parapherna.Ha which goes to

turned loose at once they couldn't
have made any more racket than the
folks made In Grand Rapids Friday.
Friday practically marked the end of
the homecoming celebration. It. was
allegorical, historical and phantasmagorlcal
day, and all the ""orlcals""
were present.
Late Thursday night all the guests'
badges were gone and Friday the
town was packed with people from
a]I parts of western Michigan who
had to do without badges.
The parade was what, the crowd
called ""a winner from start to finish.""

knee while jumping a Pere Marquette
freight train some time ago, a club
of fellow playmates has been organized
to canvass the city, asking for
only small sums of money to aid the

$20,000 The largest list comes
from Wayne county, and Roscommon
came second. The newspapers do not,
seem, to be as earner for the tax sales
as formerly. There ar^ several counties

Five Other Victims Are in Hospitals
More or Less Seriously Injured and
T w o T r a i n m e n Likely to Die.
To add to the difficulty of identifying
the victims of the wreck Wednesday
night on the Grand Trunk
railway near Durand, bones said to
be those of two additional bodies in
a sack that had been overlooked in
excitement were found in the morgue
by Undertaker C. E. Mapes, who is?
in charge of the dead. This brings
the number of dead to eight, the
number first fixed upon by the news
papers.
Repeated Inquiries from relatives of
passengers thought to have been on
the ill-fated Pullman sleeper Nebraska,
led Dr. R. C. Fair, surgeon for
the Grand Trunk, to remark to Undertaker
Mapes that there must have
been more bodies in the wreck than
were recovered. This reminded Mr.
Mapes that a sack had been brought
to the morgue Thursday morning. In
the confusion incident to assembling
the other six bodies, Mapes says, the
sack was pushed into a corner and
was forgotten. When the sack was
brought out and its contents were examined,
Dr. Fair stated that the bones
represented probably two additional
dead.
Mrs. Lewis Squires, of Chicago,
who is missing, has not yet been
identified. The body originally identified
as hers has been found to be
that of Mrs. Jeffers, from Toronto.
Two sisters of Mrs. Scnires will be
asked to come from Chicago to aid
in the final identification.
It is now known with certainty that
the nurse accompanying Mrs. Alma
Woodward, one of the victims, was
Miss Marie Amstead, of Fargo, X. D.,
Investigation revealed that Miss Polla
Scott, a school teacher of Chicago,
who was on her way to visit a sister
in Toronto, and a daughter of George
Jagermin, of Chicago, who was bound
for Chicago, are missing.
Responsibility a Problem.
While this seems to settle the problem
of the number of victims of the
accident, the matter of responsibility
for the wreck is far from being settled.
The question agitating the
minds of the persons who were on
the train, the residents of Durand and
the whole locality is:
Who is at fault, the flagman of the
wrecked train, or the engineer whose
train crashed into the sleeping car?
Trainmen and others believe that
one of the two is to blame, but on
-which is the responsibility to be
placed?
Railway Commission to Investigate,
Members of the state railway commission
announced after a conference
with the attorney-general's department,
that the commission will conduct
an independent investigation into
the Grand Trunk wreck near Durand
when six persons were killed and eight
were injured.
The decision of the commission was
the direct result, of the activities of
Prosecuting Attorney Hicks, of Shiawassee
county, who is also attorney
for the Grand Trunk, The commission
learns that Hicks is threatening
to cause the arrest of Engineer Spencer,
of the train which struck the
stalled passenger.
The attorney-general has signified
his willingness to en-operate with the
railroad commission in the investigation
into the causes and culpability
for the wreck.
Abandon Hope For Foresters.
Forest, fires have slain more than
200 persons, nearly all fire fighters,

national forest, after receiving many

He also expressed grave concern
for the safety of Ranger Jos. P>. Halm

CHAPTER VIII—Continued.
Her voice and my a r m were bringing
me to my senses. ""I hear,"" I said.
""I—I'M sit up in a second. Are you
h u r t ? ""
""No, only bruised. Do you think
you can walk?""
I drew up one foot after another,
gingerly.
""They seem to move all right,"" I
remarked dubiously. ""Would you mind
telling me where the back of my head
has gone? I can't help thinking it
isn't there.""
She made a quick examination. ""It's
pretty badly bumped,"" she said. ""You
must have fallen on it.""
I had got up on my uninjured elbow
by that time, but the pain threw me
back. ""Don't look at the wreck,"" I
entreated her. ""It's no sight for a
woman. If—if there is any way to tie
up this arm, I might be able to do
something. There may be people under
those cars!""
""Then it Is too late to help,"" she replied
solemnly. A little shower of
feathers, ""Each carrying its fiery lamp,
blew over us from some burning pillow.
A part of the wreck collapsed
with a crash. In a resolute endeavor
to play^a man's part in the tragedy
going on all around, I got to my knees.
Then I realized what I had not noticed
before: The hand and wrist of
the broken left arm were jammed
through the handle of the sealskin
grip. I gasped and sat down suddenly.
""You must not do that,"" the girl
insisted. I noticed now that she kept
her back to the wreck, her eyes averted
""The weight of the traveling bag
must he agony. Let me support the
valise until we can get it cut off.""
""Will it have to be cut off?"" I
asked as ca.hnly as possible. Tlu're
were red-hot stabs of agony clear to
my neck, but. we were moving slowly
away from the track.
""Yes,"" she replied, with dumfounding
coolness. ""If I had a knife I
could do it myself. You might, sit
here and lean against, this fence.""
Hy that time my returning faculties
had realized that she was going to flit
off the satchel, not the arm. The dizzines-;
was leaving and I was gradually
becoming myself.
""If you null, it might come,"" I suggested.
""And with that weight gone,
I Think I will cease to be five feet
eleven inches ef baby.""
She tried gently to loosen the handle,
but. it. would not move, and at last,
with great drops of cold perspiration
over mo, I had to give up.
""I'm afraid I can't stand it,"" I said.
""But there's a knife somewhere around
these clothes, and if T can find it, perhaps
you can cut the leather.""
As 1 gave her the knife she turned '
it over, examining it with a peculiar
expression, bewilderment rather than
surprise. But she said notWtrg. She j
pe^ to work deftly, and in a few min- |
utes the bag dropped free.
' T h n t ' s better."" I declared, sitting
up ""Now, if you can pin my sleeve
to mv coat, it will support, the arm ;
so we ran get away from here."" ,, •
""The pin might give,"" she objected, '
""and the jerk would be terrible."" She
CHAPTER IX.
The Halcyon Breakfast
We were Btill dazed, I think, for we
wandered like two troubled children,
our one Idea jit first to get as far
away aa we could from the horror behind
us. We were both bare headed,
grimy, pallid through the grit. Now
and then we met little groups of country
folk hurrying to the track; they
stared at us curiously, and some
wished to question us. But we hurried
past them; we had put the wreck
behind us. That way lay madness.
Only once the girl turned and looked
behind her. The wreck was hidden,
but the smoke cloud hung heavy
and dense. For the first time I remembered
that my companion had not
been alone ou the train.
""It is quiet here,"" I suggested. ""If
you will sit duwn on the bank I will
go back and make some inquiries.
I've been criminally thoughtless. Your
traveling companion—""
She Interrupted me, and something
of her splendid poise was gone.
""Please don't go back,"" she said. ""I—
am afraid It would be of no use. And
—I don't want to be left alone.""
Heaven knows I did not want her to
be alone. I was more than content to
walk along beside her aimlessly, for
any length of time. Gradually, as she
lost the exaltation of the moment, I
was gaining my normal condition of
mind. I was beginning to realize that
I had lacked the morning grace of a
shave, that I looked like some lost
hope of yesterday, and that my left
shoe pinched outrageously. A man
does not rise triumphant above such
handicaps. The girl, for all her disordered
hair and the crumpled linen of
her waist, in spite of her missing hat
and the small gold bag that hung forlornly
from a broken chain, looked exceedingly
lovely.
""Then I won't leave you alone,"" I
said manfully, and we stumbled on together.
Thus far we had seen nobody
from the wreck, but well up the
lane we came across the tall dark
woman who had occupied lower 11.
She was half crouching beside the
road, her black hair about her shoulders,
and an ugly bruise over her eye.
She did not seem to know us, and refused
to accompany us. We left her
there at last, babbling incoherently
and rolling in her hands a dozen pebbles
she had gathered in the road.
The girl shuddered as we went on.
Once she turned and glanced at my
bandage. ""Does it hurt very much?""
she asked.
""It's growing rather numb. But it
might be worse,"" I answered mendaciously,
If anything in this world
could be worse, I had never experienced
it.
And so we trudged on nareheaded
under the summer sun, growing
parched and dusty and weary, doggedly
leaving behind us the pillar of
smoke. I thought I knew of a trolley
line somewhere in the direction we
were going, or perhaps we could find
a horse and trap to take us into Baltimore.
The girl smiled when I suggested
it.
""We will create a sensation, won't
we?"" she asked. ""Isn't it queer—or
perhaps it's my state of mind—but I
keep wishing for a pair of gloves,
when I haven't even a hat!""
When we reached the main road we
sat down for a moment, and her hair,
"" T h e n It's Too Late to Help,"" She
Replied, Solemnly.
which bad been coming loose for some
time, foil over her shoulders in little
waves that were most alluring. It
seemed a pity to twist, it. up again,
but when 1 suggested this, cautiously,
she said it was troublesome and got
in her eyes when it. was loose. So she
gathered it up, while I held a row of
little shell combs and pins, and when
it was done it was vastly becoming
too, Funny about hair: A man never
knows he has it until he begins to
lose it, but it's different with a girl.
Something of the unconventional situation

up, coming buck in n minute with a
draggled, partly scorched sheet. This
tdie lore into a large square, and after
she had folded it, she slipped it, under
the broken arm and tied it securely
nt the back of my neck.
Tlie relief was immediate, and, picking
up the sealskin bag. 1 walked slowly
beside her, away from the track.

ence did It make, anyhow? We had'
been thrown together by the merest
chance. In an hour or two at the
moat we would be back In civilization
and she would recall me, If she remembered
me at all, aa an unshaven
creature In a red cravat and tan shoes,
with a soiled Pullman sheet tied
around my neck. I drew a deep
breath.
""Just a twinge,"" I said, when she
glanced up quickly. ""It's very good
of you to let me know, Miss West. 1
have been hearing delightful things
about you for three months.""
""From Kichey McKuight?"" She was
frankly curious.
""Yes. Froru RIchey McKuight."" 1
assented. Was it any wonder Mc-
Knight was crazy about her? I dug
my heels Into the dust.
""I have been visiting near Cresson,
in the mountains,"" Miss West was saying.
""The person you mentioned, Mrs.
Curtis, was my hostess. We- we
were on our way to Washington together.""
She spoke slowly, as if she
wished to give the minimum of explanation.
Across her face had come
again the baffling expression of per
plexity and trouble 1 had seen before.
""You were on your way home, i suppose?
Kichey—spoke about seeing
you,"" I floundered, finding it necessary
to say something. She looked at me
with level, direct eyes.
""No,"" she returned quietly. ""I did
not intend to go home. 1—well, it
doesn't matter; I am going home
now.""
A woman in a calico dress, with
two children, each an exact duplicate
of the other, had come quickly down
the road. She took in the situation at
a glance, and was explosively hospitable.
""You poor things,"" she said. ""If
you'll take the first road to the left
over there, and turn in at the second
pigsty, you will find break-Cast on the
table and a coffee pot on the stove.
And there's plenty of soap and water,
too. Don't say one word. There isn't
a soul there to see you.""
We accepted the invitation and she
hurried on toward the excitement and
the railroad. I got up carefully and
helped Miss West to her feet.
""At the second pigsty to the left,"" I
repeated, ""we will find the breakfast
I promised you seven eternities ago.
Forward to the pigsty!""
We said very little for the remainder
of. that walk. I had almost reached
the limit of endurance; with every
step the broken ends of the bone
grated together. We found the farmhouse
without difficulty, and I remember
wondering if I could hold out to
the end of the old stone walk that led
between hedges to the door.
""Allah be praised,"" I said with all
the voice I could muster. ""Behold the
coffee pot!"" And then I put down the
cup and folded up like a jack-knife on
the porch floor.
When I came around something hot
was trickling down my neck, and a
despairing voice was saying, ""Oh, I
don't seem to be able to pour it into
your mouth. Please open your eyes.""
""But I don't want it in my eyes,"" I
replied dreamily, ""I haven't any idea
what came over me. It was the shoes,
I think; the left one is a red-hot torture.""
I was sitting by that time and
looking across into her face.
Never before or since have I fainted,
but I would do it joyfully, a dozen
times a day, if I could waken again
to the blissful touch of soft fingers on
my face, the hot ecstasy of coffee
spilled by those fingers down my neck.
There was a thrill in every tone of
her voice that morning. Before long
my loyalty to MeKnight would step
between me and the girl he loved;
life would develop new complexities.
In these early hours after the wreck,
full of pain as they were, there was
nothing of the suspicion and distrust
that came later. Shorn of our gauds and
baubles, we were primitive man and
woman, together; our world for the
hour was the deserted farmhouse, the
slope of wheatfield that led to the
road, the woodland lot, the pasture.
We breakfasted together across the
homely table. Our cheerfulness, at
first sheer reaction, became less forced
as we ate great slices of bread from
the granny oven back of tire house,
and drank hot fluid that smelled like
coffee and tasted like nothing that I
have ever swallowed. We found cream
in stone jars, sunk deep in the chill
water of the springhouse. And there
were eggs, great, yellow-brown ones—
a basket of them.
So, like two children awakened from
a nightmare, we chatted over our food;
we hunted mutual friends, we laughed
together at my feeble witticisms, but.
we put tin1 horror behind us resolutely.
After all, it, was the hat. with
the green ribbons that brought, back
tin1 strangeness of the situation.
All along 1 had had the impression
that Alison West was deliberately putting
out of her mind something that
obtruded now :md then. If brought
with it a return of tlie puzrled expression
that I had surpiised < arly in the
day, before the wreck. 1 caught, it,
once, when, hreakl'.^i O U T , she was
lightening the sling that held the
broken arm. 1 had prolonged the
morning meal as much as 1 could, but.
when the wooden clock with the p>nk
roses on the dial pointed to huh' after
ten, and the mother with the duplicate
youBgvters had not come bacK, Mlse
W e s t nujde the m o r e I had dreaded.
""If we are to get into Baltimore at
all we must s t a r t "" she said, rising.
""You ought to see a doctor aa soon aa
possible.""
""Hush,"" I said warnlngly ""Don't
mention the arm, please; it Is asleep
now. You may rouse It.""
""If I only had a hat,"" she reflected.
""It wouldn't need to be much of one,
but—"" She gave a little cry and
darted to the corner. ""Look,"" she
said triumphantly, ""the very thing.
ARE YOUR K I D N E Y * W E L L T . v
"" N o , I Did Not Intend to Go Home.""
With the green streamers tied up il
a bow, like this—do you suppose tht
child would mind? I can put $o oi
so here that would buy a dozeu oi
them.""
It was a queer affair of straw, thai
hat, with a round crown and a rim
that flopped dismally. With a single
movement she had turned it up at on€
side and fitted it to her head. Grotesque
by itself, when she wore it it
was a thing of joy.
Evidently the lack of head covering
had troubled her, for she was elated
at her find. She left me, scrawling a
note of thanks and pinning it with a
bill to the table-cloth, and ran upstairs
to the mirror and the promised
soap and water.
I did not see her when she came
down. I had discovered a bench witt
a tin basin outside the kitchen door
and was washing, in a helpless, one
sided way. I felt rather than saw that
she was standing in the doorway, anc
I made a final plunge into the basin.
""How is It possible for a man with
only a right hand to wash his lefl
ear?"" I asked from the roller towel. 1
was distinctly uncomfortable: Men a n
more rigidly creatures of conven
tion than women, whether they admli
it or not. ""There is so much soap or
me still that if I laugh 1 will bio*
bubbles. Washing with rain watej
and home-made soap is like motorinj
on a slippery road. I only struck th»
high places.""
Then, having achieved a brilliant
polish with the towel, I looked at thi
girl.
She was leaning against the fram<
of the door, her face perfectly color
less, her breath coming in slow, dif
ficult respirations. The erratic hai
was pinned to place, but it had slk
rakishly to one side. When I real
ized that she was staring, not at me
but past me to the road along whicl
we had come, I turned and followec
her gaze. There was no one in sight;
the lane stretched dust white in tin
sun—no moving figure on it, no sigi
of life.

How Lightning Splits Trees.
Lightning makes trees explode, like
overcharged boilers. The flame of the
lightning does not burn them up, nor
does the electric flash split them like
an ax. The bolt flows through into all
the damp interstices of the trunk and
into the hollows under its bark. All
the moisture at once is turned Into
steam, which by its immediate explosion
rips open the tree. For centuries
this simple theory puzzled scientists,
but they have got in right at last.
It takes a strong-minded spinster to
believe that the reason men don't propose
to her is that she never gives
them a chance.

Little Rose
By Frederick* Hoffman
Gotorright. Itfio, by Associated Literary Pics*
The afternoon sunlight fell aslant
the professor's desk. He was a
Bcholar of no mean reputation, distinguished
among men of letters, a
rigid student and a master of t h e
arts; yet, even now, within the profeasor's
deep gray eyes, there was a
gleam of something, savoring not at
all of sociology nor the science of the
people, suggesting no whit of dust
thick volumes, remote from classroom
dictates and t h e rule of college
couucil. Was it that t h e professor
smiled?
He held a manuscript, sent him for
correction, a review of hia latest
book, accompanied by a brief biographical
sketch. The professor was
leading:
""It is noticeable that, from the
first, Dr. Carl Sterubaum, our eminent
scientist, was attracted toward
the study of human nature in all its
varied phases. A boy of sixteen, he
ran away from home and joined a
band of wandering gypsy tramps, ostensibly
t o make personal observation
of the peculiar habits of thla people.""
It was at this point that the professor
laid down the paper and t h e
suggested gleam of humor took possession
of his features.
Yes; he had run away. Who would
not have run away from t h e stern
discipline of a moody foster-father
and the continual nagging of a sternfaced
aunt? Had his mother lived he
would have scorned this thing, but,
when she died all sympathy and lote
went with her and he fought his way
unchampioned and alone.
He recalled again that day in early
spring—a Saturday half-holiday it
was—and yet he sat alone within the
barren spare room, swinging his legs,
dejected and distressed. What business
had Aunt Maria to treat him so?
He was no child, though he was frail
and slender for his age. He was sixteen,
and because she had discovered
him burled deep in a volume of history
at a time when he Bhould have
been drawing water from the well
without, she had sent him peremptorily
into the cheerless room, there to
await his father's later Judgment.
Sixteen—was he not a man? She was
but a woman! A man is always greater
than a woman, and his inmost soul
rebelled.
Again the professor seemed
weighed down, as on that day, by
the oppressive tick-tock-tlck of the
moon-faced clock, looming time's
tyrant in the corner. Tick-tocktick!
It was very damp and still. But what
was that?
Down the road, far out beyond t h e
garden's whitewashed wall, and the
rows of nodding daffodils, came a
Bound suggesting to the boy many
things At first it was but a vague
and formless 'tinkle, then the clear
echoing of numerous bells, laughter
and shouts, the rumbling of many
wheels. There was a sudden call to
halt, the hoof beats paused awhile,
and above the clatter of the rest, one
voice shrieked, ""Fine lace for sale! —
your kettles we will mend!—your fortune
while you wait!""
With the last blithe statement the
sound ceased. Aunt Maria came,
raging from the kitchen. ""Away,"" she
scowled, ""you good-for-nothing beggars—
away from our clean streets!
Go on to the Black Forest whence you
come.""
A gay laugh was t h e answer to
her ranting and the band went jangling
on.
••• But the gray eyes of the boy within
grew wide with sudden question.
The Black Forest? There would be
forgetting there of stringent tyranny!
There he would be free and gay.
Why not? The window sash was
open. Already it was dusk. A moment's
final argument, and he had
dropped upon the new soft grass, was
down the road, away to gypsy-land.
They welcomed him, those artless
gypsy waifs, made much of him and
claimed him one of them. From the
first, he w a s useful in countless
ways. He had a head for figures and
balancing accounts, and saved the
lawless band many a scrape. They
were kind enough, but he, too, did
his part.
Yet what had kept him there, enduring
hardships of summer drought
and winter frostness, uncomplaining,
with brave grace? Was it that. Inner
uenae of scholarly investigation subtly
asserting itself? Was it the mere
obstinate braggadocio of a boy, misunderstood
at home? Or was it—•
something else?
Little Rose was a- fragile thing,
blue eyed and flaxen curled, startlingty
unlike the other children of the
camp. The hoy watched her wonder-
Ingly and used to ponder deeply on
her parentage. Heing wise beyond
his years, and knowing the unconformity
of gs psy wanderers, he asked no
pointed questions. However, he was
sure, though she, herself, could tell
him nothing of her ea.rly life, that
the frail girl had been stolen from
her home in hope of rich reward.
Yet, she was happy here, rejoicing
in the flowers and the sunlight.
The boy, lying beside big, swarthy
Joe, the chieftain's oldest sou, night
after night, stared a t t h e stars
through a rift within t h e tent, dreaming
of this child.
After many months of joyous comradeship,
of care-free life In aun and
wind, the great terror came. They
were riding along through t h e valley,
up hili and down dale, thinking no
harm, imagining no evil, when the
deep fear burst full force upon them.
The Rose and Carl were loitering behind
t h e vans, singing, when suddenly
t h e girl raised her flower-crowned
head, and the boy's gaze followed
hers.
A gentle*man on horseback, having
ridden for some time unobserved, was
close upon them now. I t was up Into
his eyes that the girl was staring
with that startled apprehension. T h e
boy aaw, In a flash, t h e clue to her
strange loveliness; t h e kinship was
past question. It was self evident the
man had likewise seen i t He sat,
rigid, thunderstruck, his hands
clutching t h e pommel of hia saddle,
his keen eyes wild.
""Help,"" he gasped, ""help,"" and Carl
caught him a s he fell.
Little Rose brought water from a
neighboring spring and restored him.
He said nothing, offered no explanatitn,
did this distinguished gentleman,
but when he handed Carl a tiny
gold case, the boy, with the opening
of t h e tiny clasp, knew all. The eyeB
of little Rose gazed out from a tangle
of golden curls, even if the low cut
velvet gown and the twisted strings
of pearls seemed far remote from
what he knew of her.
""It was her mother,"" said t h e gentleman.
""It seems she's come again.""
Her mother! The boy's heart
leaped with sudden buoyant gladness
and then went black within. Her
mother! It was like the wondrous
fairy tales, the romance of the folk
lore, this uniting of t h e lost and
wronged! But, 0, it meant the severing
of the friendship! Her mother!
Yes, and her father, too!
But even now, the band would
reach them in a minute, threatening,
aggressive and at war. In a moment
they would claim their own a^nd vanish,
lost in the circling mazes of the
hills. He had but to call, and Little
Rose and old freedom and old dreams
were his again.
But Joe, the big Indian, stealing
on their path, had witnessed all the
scene, and guessed a t once its full
and striking purport.
He spoke with all t h e conviction of
a king. ""You go at once,"" he said.
""You go unharmed. But if you follow
or make cry of this, t h e worst will
come. You know us and our ways!""
O, the bitter nights t h e boy lay
tossing on his bed, arguing with himself,
endeavoring to forget. To forget
that it was his inability, his indifference,
his callous selfishness
that had cheated this brave father of
his right. But, thanks t o t h e stern
Teuton of his character t h e best in
him prevailed, and, traitor to the
camp, he restored the girl to her own.
It was while traveling through t h e
Relsenthal that above an entrance to
a vast estate he associated the engraven
coat-of-arms with perfect surety
with the delicate tracery of the
miniature. ""Baron von Stroben's
lands,"" one said, and now the way
was clear.
The professor's eyes, still soft with
old day dreams, came back frpm the
still deepening of t h e dusk, and he
fingered thoughtfully t h e manuscript
Yes; he had proved loyal to his trust,
had given up t h e Little Rose and
bowed his head to right. Tb« conflict
had been fierce and long, but he had
won!
There was a rustling of the curtains
at the door, but still the man
dreamed on. It was only when two
hands closed over his eyes that suddenly
he raised his hands to silver
curls above him and smiled in new
content ""Dear Little Rose—my wife.
I've been thinking of you.""

ORIGIN OF STYLES
AMERICANS T A K E T H E I R IDEAS
FROM PARIS.
Fashion Must Be Followed Even
Though the Styles of Gowns and
Millinery Cannot Be Made
to Look Attractive.
BY FRANCES GROSVENOR.
All at once, from t h e quarters of
the compass, comes a n inquiry Into
the origin of, the otyles with which
American women a r e blessed—or afflicted—
in t h e fashioning of their
clothes. It seems that our apparel,
especially in t h e matter of millinery,
has not only failed t o please our men
folks (who fain would worship at t h e
shrine of beauty adorned), but h a s
provoked a revolt on the part of many
women during t h e past year.
The ""Merry Widow"" and the ""Peach
Basket"" (alluring names for hats),
called down t h e wrath of o u r male
relatives, made us t h e sport of t h e
caricaturist in the daily press, and
even provoked a revolt on our p a r t
How did we come by such atrocious
millinery? Mr. Boh tells us it was
foisted on us by the French, in who.a
we have had such faith for BO. long
a time. All this commotion served as
advertising, and thousands of us went
on our way—not serenely—getting in
everybody's else way with our ""merry
widowB,"" and resembling toadstools
under our ""peach baskets,"" defeating
our own efforts to look attractive
and meriting t h e settled conviction
in many minds that women a r e
hopelessly foolish when it comes to
following the fashion.
Our conglomeration of models
comes to us through many channels
and ""It is t h e style,"" or ""They are
wearing this"" are bound to cease to
be a big stick. We are destined to
become more independent In our
choice of styles and to wear millinery
of which even our male kin will be
compelled to admit ""It is beautiful""
and ' I t is suited to you."" We will not
care a fig about who is wearing it or
whether somebody else made it the
style or not. It will be in the trend
of fashion, otherwise our menfolk
would pronounce it^too conspicuous,
and everybody will be happy when everybody
is suited.
DRESS DETAILS IMPORTANT
Attention to Little Things Will Raise
the Hat or Gown Above
Mediocrity.
In dress, a s In other things, the tm
portanco of the attention to little
things Is essential. If this be done,
the big effect will take care of itself.
A gown, h a t or wrap can be raised
from a plane of mediocrity to that of
distinction by the introduction of little
details of ornamentation that are
decidedly successful In the attainment
of that end, yet a r e within t h e reach
of moat fingers.
A hat that in itself Is the duplicate
of hundreds of others can be treated
to a peculiar binding or an unusual
adjustment of ornaments. The binding,
by the way, offers wide field for
differentiation from the usual flat velvet
facing. Fringe in silken or linen
| form is distinctive, if used a s an edging
for the turned-down rim. Silk or
velvet can be puffed or shirred over
the edge, while a rose quilling is the
FOR THE SMALL GIRL
Sky blue zephyr Is used for this simple
little dress, which h a s a plastron
front put on with a wrapped seam;
the material which 1B Bet to this is
pleated; a band draws the pleats in at
the waist; the collar and cuffs are just
stitched at the edge.
Hat of soft straw trimmed with ribbon.
Material required: 8¼ yards 36
inches wide.
newest trimming for that part of the
hat.
Then, again, color in the form oi
beads, silk or velvet can be used with
a discreet eye for unusual combina
tion of tones. In other words, the
unusual but approved alliances oi
shades make for the distinctive. A
detail perhaps that many women over
look is the question of hatpins. Just
as soon as one considers these orna
ments of utility (and dangers) to form
a part of the hat scheme there will
be added effect. Do not choose prom
iscuously the pins, each of which is
very beautiful, but in the relation tc
others detracts from the whole. Sure
ly, the Immense discs should be made
(o contribute to the headgear.
In dress the details are extremelj
important. Little pleatings that ar«
for the most part hidden, applications
of tiny buttons or narrow braid, hid
den bands of color under lace and the
wonderful attention to hooks, loops
and buttons at all fastenings are the
factors that produce a successful
whole.
Motifs not applied by the machine,
but by hand, and buttonholed in such
a way that the material melts into the
edging are extremely effective. P i p
Inge of two or three colors form tiny
lines of contrast on unexpected places,
while a piece of embroidery or chintz
that many of us would consign to the
scrap bag can be made important as
a decorative agent.
Last of all, let there be paid a care
ful attention to the accessories with
which woman adorns herself. With a
red dress use the jewelry that best
harmonizes with the shade. Black and
white a r e more friendly to the jewel
casket, but the rule of one color
scheme is the best to be observed.
Handkerchief Case.
A novel handkerchief case consists
of two squares, a little larger than a
folded handkerchief, of cardboard,
padded and covered outside with cretonne
and inside with silk, with a buttonholed
edge or a band of gilt galloon.
T h e handkerchiefs go between
these, and the case Is held together by
a circlet of silk rubber with a lace
edging.
This case Is very convenient for
traveling, as it holds a number of
handkerchiefs and does not take up
the space of the ordinary handkerchief
caso.
Flower Frleies.
A pretty English idea lately come
to America la the application of a
frieze, consisting of a canvas or paper
border of flowers with the background
cut away with a sharp pair of
embroidery scissors, to t h e white or
green painted walls of a bungalow.
The dado or ceiling border thus
formed is very effective and may ba
applied to every room In t h e cottage
with a differently tinted wall and a
different choice of flowers appropriately
distributed fdr each. Try it on your
summer bungalow.

metal strips, with slots for the spiral
to pnss through, are fastened to the
door at corresponding distances and
form the hinges. When the door 1B
opened It rides up on the spirals, clearing

when the pressure on the door is released
It settles of its own weight and
closes slowly and gently as the inclosing

the case with many other spring

Rotation of Crops.
Wheat grown at the Minnesota experiment
station continuously on the
« Mine plot since 1894 shows an average
yield of 18.6 bushels per acre since
ltOO. Grown An the three-year rotation
since 1900, the average yield has
been 20.6 bushels per acre. No manure
being given the plot, the increase must
be charged alone to rotation, the seed
and other conditions being substant
i a l l y the same. In a five-year rotation
with manure well applied, covering the
same period, the yield has averaged
J6.6 bushels per acre, and the conclusion
at the station is that more grain
ean be grown in three years of rotation
than in four years of continuous
cropping.

""pulled bread."" This la a great delicacy
In England, used for luncheon or tea.
Crisp, delicately browned and toothsome,

skin, and hair may be preserved, purlfled
and beautified, minor eruptions
prevented from becoming chronic and
torturing, disfiguring rashes, itchinga,

Side Trips In Georgia
One of the pastimes while
camping was the side trip of a
day or half day. There were
many interesting ones. One could
visit the miues spoken of before
in an hours walk but as they were
idle, uothiug could be seen but
the excavations and closed mills.
We weut to Dukes creek several
times fishing but were not rewarded
very largely. We managed to
catch euough however for the
camp for a couple of meals. The
fish caught were cat (similar to
our bullhead only smaller) suckers,
and small bass. There were
trout iu these streams but we did
not get any. Up farther in the
mountains the streams contain the
brook trout but we did not try for

T l i i r TO T H E MOUNTAIN MILL.
Some of the meu about us were
talking of going to mill one afternoon
aud asked us to go along if
we did not miud the walk of 3^
miles thru the mouutaint. We
were iu for just such a trip and
about uoou left our shack for a
milling trip that we had often
read of. The two men who made
the trip were laborers and wanted
some corn ground for bread. Each
man took a ""poke"" or sack with
about a bushel \>i shelled corn on
their back and set out over the
trail, for such it was most of the
way although many teams made it
at times. The trail was about as
crooked as the oue that led up
Mt. Yonah but not quite so steep.
One of our northern men would
hardly think he conld carry a
bushel of corn 3^ blocks to the
mill but these men, tho small, did
not mind the trip. I t was a fine
walk and we could grab handfuls
of blackberries on the way without
even stepping out of the track
and when we say handfuls we
mean from 3 to 6 or 8 large berries
at one ""grab.""
On nearing the mill we could
hear the mountain stream hurrying
over the rocks to get to work
making corn meal and flour for
its ; the hungry. Of course we had
'seen these mills at a distance
| while traversing the mountains on
I a train but when we came out of
the woods there set one of t h e

Having uothiug better to do
bne day, E . C. Glenn and myself
started for a visit to the beautiful
Nacoochee valley and the little
resort town in the mountains by
the same name, Nachoochee. I t
was a walk of about H miles in
all but worth the effort. I t was
ouly a repitition as regards to
road and trail, wiading in and out
fording the many little spring
branches on stepping stones,
crossing t h e greater branch,
DukeB creek, on a swinging foot
bridge, but vehicles have to ford
tue streams perhaps 3 rods wide
and 2 feet deep at t h e deepest
point in dry weather. After a
storm of course it is much deeper
and after some storms impassible
for a few hours.
The next stream was the Chattab
ooc he river which is quite a
torrent even in dry weather, and
tumbling down over the rocks in
a fall of at least one foot to 10 or
15 feet can be heard for a long
ways off. Ou our trip out we
crossed it on a foot bridge at what
is called the ford but the ford is
not used as much as formerly as
one mile farther u p there is a
large covered wooden bridge. I t
makes the road a little longer but
time can be saved by going this
way to Nacoochee and taking this
route the only place that would
give the ""ice wagon"" or any other
auto any trouble would be at the
ford at Dukes Creek where most
spark plugs would get wet; even
the mountain ""plugs"" driven up
here get a severe wetting.
The Nacoochee valley sppeads
out for miles in length and from
1 to 3 miles in width and is very
fertile. All kinds of crops a r e
raised here and acres of the finest
corn was in sight. I n the valley
is located the Dr. Hardiman Sanitarium,
a beautiful place surrounded
by a large grove of tulip
trees. The building overlooks the
valley, river Chattahoochee aud
Indian mound, a large mound
erected yearB and years ago by the
tribe that made this fertile valley
their home and on which a small
and this one little house consumed
on an average, 40 per day. I t required
one man on t h e road all
the time buying them. Here is
a suggestion for some one who
wants to raise chickens iu t h e
sunny south aud where there is a
market in cue hotel for at least
3500 per season of three months
and inauy more during t h e year.
There were at least 5 other hotels
iu the place and all busy. By
the way, we fouud a place called
the Gleun house but not until we
had registered at the former hotel.
I t was a very common occurrence
to find the uame ""Gleun""
attached to some towu or farm
aud near Carnelia we fouud oue
that bore the uame ""Gleubrook.""

LARGE AND SMALL FAMILIES.
Where the population iu largely agricultural

ahoulders, and also there is always
plenty of work for the girls to do about
the fHrm. Moreover, rood Is plentiful
and other desires are tew. But no such
utlmulus for a large family exists in
urban life, where it is often necessary
to live in a flat, the very limitations of
which point to the inadvisability of a
numerous progeny, says Indianapolis
Star. Moreover, as the individual

become present needs. The coming of

and the parents will not consent
'Finally science has shown that a

t h a n a large family poorly looked
after. The fewer children of the well-

a more numerous progeny in the third
generation than will the underfed and
neglected children of the larger family.

KALAMAZOO COUNTY KEEPS AT

*OF IN JAIL.
E X P E R I M E N T IS PROVING A COMP
L E T E SUCCESS AND T H E
COUNTY GAINS T H E R E B Y .
Since Last Spring Nearly 32 Milea of
Good Gravel Road* Have
Been Completed.
Drunkards, vags and petty criminals
have nearly completed building 32
miles of good roads for Kalamaaoo
county. The work was started early
last spring, and with excellent weather
conditions the road commission h a s
been able to push the improvement
with great rapidity.
This is the only county north of
the Mason and Dixon line using county
prisoners on public improvements
aiffl the scheme is only being tried
here as an experiment. So tar, according
to members of the road commission,
it has worked out much more
successfully than anticipated.
Men formerly sent to jail to serve
from five to 20 days for drunkenness
or vagrancy are now sentenced to
serve on the road gang for a week
or two. Officers do not find it difficult
to keep from 20 to 30 men on
the gang all the time. In fact, if
drunkenness among the local Imbibers
falls down for a week or two
and dry county visitors become scarce,
the railroad yards are usually raided
and a dozen or so hoboes picked up
and sentenced to work on the road.
A Rhode Island traveling agent who
was disappointed in the demand in a
certain section for the tireless cookers
which hi was offering, discovered that
the farmers of ""Little Rhody"" have
taken to the use of their Incubators for
summer coking. Like the discovery of
roast pig in China, this utilization of
the Incubator was the result of accident.
A husband who had forgotten to
put on the pork and beans in accordance
with a promise to a wife ""out
shopping,"" dashed the beans into an incubator,
thus saving his bacon at the
expense of a few chicks which were
called out to death in a fervent porkand-
beans atmosphere. T h e idea of
both raising and cooking chickens in
incubators is depressing to the manufacturers
of tireless cookers.

appropriation for mining purposes.
The aggregate of such withdrawals
now reaches over 71,500,000 acres.
This means that the enormous area in
question is to be preserved by the government
for disposition in the future
and that It is not to fall into the hands
of grasping monopolists, says Troy
Times. Coal lands may be open to agricultural
entry, but the rich deposits
underneath are to remain public property,

Detroit Census Figures.
The greatness of Detroit and its
enormous increase in population in
the last 10 years, as proved by the
census figures just made public at
Washington, have created a countrywide
sensation.
That Michigan's metropolis could
leap from a population of 285,704 in
1900 to 465,766 in 1910, a gain of G3
per cent, has evoked exclamations of
wonder from New York to San Francisco.
Before the figures had been published
six hours letters of query and
congratulations began to arrive, Hundreds
of presidents and general managers
of big manufacturing plants in
other cities wrote to ask what extraordinary
advantages caused this
growth; others who knew Detroit and
who had long predicted that her star
was ascending wrote to say: ""Wo
told you so,"" and ""What ,vill it be in
1920?""
From coast to coast all the big dailies
carry today leading stories on
Detroit's sensational development. It
is the biggest feature of the entire
census report.

Newspapers.
Former President Roosevelt remains
silent as to whether he will
enter the lists for the presidential
nomination in 1912, neither affirming
nor denying the report that he may
be found opposing President Taft In
the next national contest. The following
statement emanating from the
colonel is wired as the final word on
the subject:
His close friends are the authority
for the statement that
Col. Roosevelt has never indicated
by the slightest word what
his intentions are with regard to
1912. The colonel, however, has
always said that he reserves the
right to engage in any situation
at any time whenever he feels
that his policies demand It.
Theodore Roosevelt and President
Taft have not come to the parting ol
the ways, says an Oyster Kay dispatch
to the Chicago Tribune, which
continues:
""Events in Oyster Bay and in
Beverly emphasized the fact that the
New York newspapers which declared
that a break had come between
the president and his predecessor
had jumped at conclusions.
""It is believed here by those close
to Col. Roosevelt that while it is possible
he may eventually break with
the administration, the fact remains
that he has not yet done so, and it
is declared he will not do so in any
event until after the November election.
""Col. Roosevelt has been assured
that Mr. Taft favored him for temporary
chairman of the New York
convention, and had no understanding
with the machine leaders in the state.
This assurance is said to have averted
a breach between the two chiefs.""

Firing of Cannon.
Reflecting the views of the admin
istration, it is generally believed,
Representative Nicholas Longworth,
of Ohio, has given out a statement
in which he says he will never support
Speaker Cannon again and that
he does not believe Mr. Cannon ever
can be re-elected. This is regarded
as the actual beginning of the real
fight on Mr. Cannon.
It had been regarded as a significant
fact that Mr, Longworth had
been called into all the recent conferences
of a political character held by
President Taft. Mr. Longworth was
present when the president and vicepresident
talked together. It was reported
then that a statement adverse
to Mr. Cannon was being prepared in
quarters close to the administration
and it was also intimated that Mr.
Sherman, who, like Mr. Longworth,
has always been a supporter of Mr.
Cannon, has become reconciled to the
fact that Mr. Cannon must go.
Speaker Cannon, when shown the
dispatch regarding the statement by
Rep. Nicholas Longworth, said:
""Mr. Cannon declines to answer
any statement which Mr. Nicholas
Longworth may or may not have
made until he sees it. I do not answer
any statements which I believe
to be fakes that mischievous parties
make.
""It is time enough for me to answer
the president of the United States
if he has any statement to make touching
on the Republicanism of the
speaker of the house qf representatives
when he makes that statement
under his own hand. I will not fight
windmills filled by breezes blown from
lungs of political or personal enemies
or cowards.""

The Retired Generals.
With the retirement of General
Dates, brigade ""omnmnder, at the end
of this year there will be 11 brigadier-
generals on the retired list of the
Michigan National Guard. The names:
Fred W. Green, Tonia; L. R. Roynton,
George H. Brown and Joseph Walsh,
Port Huron; John K. Tyrrell, Jackson;
C, R. Hawley, Ray City; Frank
R. Lyon, Calumet; Fred B. Wood,
Adrian; O'Brien Atkinson and C. W.
Hurrah, Detroit, and Robert J. Rates,

Kidd and Col. Cox, the latter of the
adjutant-generals department, will
probably also retire at the end of the
year, and both being civil war veterans,
they can do so at one grade
higher than they now hold.
Shock Killed Him.
His death brought, on by the shock
of seeing Mayor Gaynor pierced by
an assassin's bullet, President Pedro
Montt, of Chile, died in Bremen Tuesday,
shortly after the arrival from
New York of the Kaiser Wilhclm der
Grosse.
President Montt for some time had
suffered from heart trouble and was
on his way to Europe to recuperate
when the attack upon New York's
mayor was made on the deck of the
Kaiser Wilhelm last week Tuesday.
Senor Montt had just finished speaking
to the mayor when Gallagher's
shot was fired, and the smoke swept
the face of the Chilean president as
it drifted from the muzzle of the assassin's
revolver. The shock of Mayor
Gaynor's narrow escape from
death caused a recurrence of heart
trouble, from which President Montt
was unable to recover.

SYNOPSIS.
Lawrence Blakeley. lawyer, goes to
Pittsburg with the forged notes in the
Bronaon cane to take the deposition of the
chief witness for the prosecution, John
Gllmore, a millionaire. In the latter's
house the lawyer is attracted by the picture
of a girl whom Gllmore explains is
his granddaughter, Alison West. He says
her father is a rascal and a friend of
the forger. Standing in line to buy a
Pullman ticket Blakeley is requested by
a lady to buy her one. He gives her lower
oleven and retains lower ten. He rinds
a man in a drunken stupor in lower ten
and retires in lower nine. He awakens in
lower seven and finds his bag and clothing
missing. The roan in lower ten is
found murdered. It is learned that the
dead man is Simon* Harrington of Pittsburg.
The man who disappeared with
Blakeley's clothes Is suspected of the
murder.
C H A P T E R VI—Continued.
""Then you haven't heard the rest of
the tragedy?"" I asked, holding out the
case. ""It's frightfully bad luck for
me, but it makes a good story. You
aee—""
At that moment the conductor and
porter ceased their colloquy. The conductor
came directly toward me, tugging
as he came at his bristling gray
mustache.
""I would like to talk to you in the
car,"" he Baid to me, with a curious
glance at the young lady.
""Can't it wait?"" I objected. ""We
are on our way to a cup of coffee and
la slice of bacon. Be merciful as you
are powerful.""
""I'm afraid the breakfast will have
to wait,"" he replied. ""I won't keep
you long."" There was a note of authority
in his voice which I resented;
but, after all, the circumstances were
unusual.
""We'll have to defer that cup of
coffee for a while,"" I said to the girl;
""but don't despair; there's breakfaBt
somewhere.""
As we entered the car, she stood
aside, but I felt rather than saw that
she followed us. I .was surprised to
see a half dozen men gathered around
the berth in which I had wakened,
number seven. It had not yet been
made up.
As we passed along the aisle, I was
conscious of a new expression on the
faces of the passengers. The tall woman
who had fainted was searching my
face with narrowed eyes, while the
stout woman of the kindly heart
avoided my gaze, and pretended to
look out of the window.
As we pushed our way through the
group I fancied that it closed around
me ominously. The conductor said
nothing, but led the way without ceremony
to the side of the berth.
""What's the matter?"" I inquired. I
was puzzled, but not apprehensive.
""Have you some of my things? I'd be
thankful even for my shoes; these are
confoundedly tight.""
Nobody apoke, and I fell silent, too.
For one of the pillows had been turned
over, and the under side of the white
case was streaked with brownish
stains I think It waB a perceptible
time before I realized that the stains
were blood, and that the faces around
were filled with suspicion and distrust.
; ""Why, it—that looks like blood,"" I
said vacuously. There was an incessant
pounding in my ears, and the
conductor's voice came from far off.
""It is blood,"" he asserted grimly.
1 looked around with a dizzy att
e m p t at nonchalance. ""Even if it is,""
jl remonstrated, ""surety you don't supp
o s e for a moment that I know anyt
h i n g about it!""
The amateur detective elbowed his
way in. He had a scrap of transparent
paper in his hand, and a pencil.
""I would like permission to trace
the stains,"" he began eagerly. ""Also""
—to me—""if you will kindly jab your
'tnger with a pin—needle—anything—""
""If you don't keep out of this,"" the
conductor said savagely, ""I will do
some jabbing myself. As for you,
sir—"" he turned to me. I was absolutely
innocent, but I knew that I
presented -a typical picture of guilt; I
was covered with cold sweat, and the
pounding in my ears kept up dizzily.
""As for you, sir—""
The irrepressible amateur detective
made a quick pounce at the pillow and
pushed back the cover. Before our incredulous
eyes he drew out a narrow
steel dirk which had been buried to
the small cross that served as a head.
There was a chorus of voices
around, a quick surging forward of
the crowd. So that was what had
scratched my band! I hurled the
wound in my coat pocket. .
""Well,"" I said, trying to speak naturally,
'tfoean't t h a t prove whet I have
been telling you? The man who committed
the murder belonged to this
berth, and made an exchange in some
way alter the crime. How do you
know he didn't change the tags so 1
would come back to this berth?"" This
was an Inspiration; I was pleased
with it. ""That's what he did, he
changed the tags,"" I reiterated.
There was a murmur of assent
around. The doctor, who was standing^
beside me, put his hand on my
arm. ""If this gentleman committed
this crime, and I for one feel sure he
did not, then who is the fellow who
got av/ay? And why did he go?""
""We have only one man's word for
thui,"" the conductor snarled. ""I've traveled
some in these cars myself, and
no one ever changed berths with me.""
Somebody on the edge of the group
asserted that hereafter he would travel
by daylight. I glanced up and caught
the eye of the girl in blue.
""They are all mad,"" she said. Her
tone was low, but I heard her distinctly.
""Don't take them seriously enough
to defend yourself.""
""I am glad you think I didn't do it,""
I observed meekly, over the crowd.
""Nothing else is of any importance.""
The conductor had pulled out his
note-book again. ""Your name, please,""
he said gruffly.
""Lawrence Blakeley, Washington.""
""Your occupation?""
""Attorney. A member of the firm
of Blakeley & McKnight.""
""Mr. Blakeley. you say you have
occupied the wrong berth and have
been robbed. Do you know anything
of the man who did it?""
""Only from what he left behind,"" I
answered. ""These clotheB—""
""They fit you,"" he said with quick
suspicion. ""Isn't that rather a coincidence?
You are a large man.""
""Good heavens,"" I retorted, stung to
fury, ""do I look like a man who would
wear this kind of a necktie? Do you
suppose I carry purple and green
barred silk handkerchiefs? Would any
man in his senses wear a pair of
shoes a full size too small?""
The conductor was inclined to
hedge. ""You will have to grant that
I am in a peculiar position,"" he said.
""I have only your word as to the exchange
of berths, and you understand
I am merely doing my duty. Are there
any clews in the pockets?""
For the second time I emptied them
of their contents, which he noted. ""Is
that all?"" he finished. ""There was
nothing else?""
""Nothing.""
""That's not all, sir,"" broke in the
porter, stepping forward. ""There was
a small black satchel.""
""That's so,"" I exclaimed. ""I forgot
the bag. I don't even know where it
is.""
The easily swayed crowd looked suspicious
again. I've grown so accustomed
to reading the faceB of a jury,
seeing them swing from doubt to belief,
and back again to doubt, that I
Instinctively watch expressions. I saw
that my forgetfulnesa had done me
harm—that suspicion was roused
again.
The bag was found a couple of seats
away, under somebody's raincoat—another
dubious circumstance. Was I
hiding it? It was brought to the berth
and placed beside the conductor, who
opened it at once.
It contained the usual traveling impedimenta—
change of linen, collars,
handkerchiefs, a bronze-green scarf,
and a safety razor. But the attention
of the crowd riveted itself on a flat,
Russia leather wallet, around which
a heavy gum band was wrapped, and
which bore in gilt letters the name
""Simon Harrington.""
C H A P T E R V I I .
A Fine Gold Chain.
The conductor held it out to me, his
face sternly accusing.
""Is this another coincidence?"" he
asked. ""Did the man who left you
his clothes and the barred silk handkerchief
and the tight shoes leave you
the spoil of the murder?""
The men standing around had
drawn off a little, and I saw the absolute
futility of any remonstrance.
Have you ever seen a fly, who, in
these hygienic days, finding no cobwebs
to entangle him, is caught in a
sheet of fly paper, finds himself more
and more mired, and is finally quiet
with the sticky stillness of despair?
Well, I was the fly. I had seen too
much of circumstantial evidence to
have any belief that the establishing
of my identity would weigh much
against the other incriminating details.
It meant Imprisonment and
trial, probably, with all the notoriety
and loss of practice they would entail.
A man thinks quickly at a time
like that. All the probable consequences
of the finding of that pocketbook
flashed through my mind as I extended
my hand to take i t Then I
drew my arm back.
""I don't want it,"" I said. ""Look inside.
Maybe the other man took the
money and left the wallet.""
The conductor opened it, and again
there was a curious surging forward
of the crowd. To my intense disappointment
the money was still there.
I stood blankly miserable while it
w&s counted out—five $100 bills, six
twenties and some H T M and one* tnat
brought the total to 1*60.
The little man with the note-book
insisted on taking the numbers of t h e
notes, to the conductor's annoyanee.
It was immaterial to m e : Email things
had lost their power to Irritate. I was
seeing myself in the prisoner's box,
going through all the nerve-racking
routine of a trial for murder—the challenging
of the jury, the endless crossexaminations,
the alternate hope and
fear. I believe I said before that I
bad no nerves, but for a few minutes
that morning I was as near as a man
ever comes to hysteria.
T folded my arms and gave myself
a mental shake. I seemed to be the
center of a hundred eyes, expressing
every shade of doubt and distrust, but
I tried not to flinch. Then some one
created a diversion.
The a m a U u r detective was busy
again with the sealskin bag, investigating
the make of ttie safety razor
and the manufacturer's name on the
bronze-green tie. Now, however, he
paused and frowned, as though some
pet theory had been upset.
Then from a corner of the bag he
drew out and held up for our inspection
some three inches of fine gold
chain, one end of which was blackened
and stained with blood!
The conductor held out his hand for
it, but the little man was not ready
to give it up. He turned to me.
""You say no watch was left you?
Was there a piece of chain like that?""
""No chain at all,"" I said sulkily. ""No
jewelry of any kind, except plain gold
buttons in the shirt I am wearing.""
""Where are your glasses?"" he
threw at me suddenly; instinctively
my hand went to my eyes. My glasses
had been gone all morning, and I had
not even noticed their absence. The
little man smiled cynically and held
out the chain.
""I must ask you to examine this,""
he insisted. ""Isn't it a part of the fine
gold chain you wear over your ear?""
I didn't want to touch the thing:
The stain at the end made me shudder.
But with a baker's dozen of suspicious
eyes—well, we'll say 14—there
were no one-eyed men—I took the
fragment in the tips of my fingers and
looked at it helplessly.
""Very fine chains are much alike,""
I managed to say. • ""For all I know,
this may be mine, but I don't know
how it got into that sealskin bag. I
never saw the bag until this morning
after daylight.""
""He admits that he had the bag,""
somebody said behind me. ""How did
you guess that he wore glasses, anyhow?""
to the amateur sleuth.
That gentleman cleared his throat.
""There were two reasons,"" he said,
"" I Don't W a n t It,"" 1 Said.
""for suspecting it. When you see a
man with the lines of his face drooping,
a healthy individual with a pensive
eye—suspect astigmatism. Besides,
this gentleman has a pronounced
line across the bridge of his
nose and a mark on his ear from the
chain ""
After this remarkable exhibition of
the theoretical as combined with the
practical, he sank into a seat near by,
and still holding the chain, sat with
closed eyes and pursed lips. It was
evident to all the car that the solution
of the mystery was a question of moments.
Once he bent forward eagerly
and putting the chain on the windowsill,
proceeded to go over it with a
pocket magnifying glass, only to
shake his head in disappointment. All
the people around shook their heads,
too, although they had not the slightest
idea what it was about.
The pounding in my ears began
again. The group around me seemed
to be suddenly motionless in the very
act of moving, as if a hypnotist had
called ""Rigid!"" The girl in blue was
looking at me, and above the din I
thought she said she must speak to
me—something vital. The pounding
grew louder and merged into a scream.
With a grinding and splintering the
car rose under my feet. Then It fell
away into darkness.
C H A P T E R V I I I .
The Second 8ection.
Have you ever been picked up out
of your three-meals-a-day life, whirled
around In a tornado of events, and
landed in a situation so grotesque and
yet BO horrible that you laugh even
while you are groaning, and straining
at Its nopwiessness? McKni&ht says
that is hysteria, and that no man
worthy of t h e n a m e ever admits to I t
Also, as McKnight sayB, it sounds
like a tank drama. Just as the revolving
saw is about to cut the hero Into
stove lengths, the second villain blows
up the sawmill. The hero goes up
through the roof and alights on the
bank of a stream at the feet of his
lady love, who is making daisy chains.
Nevertheless, when I was safely
home again, with Mrs. Klopton brewing
strange drinks that came in paper
packets from the pharmacy, and that
smelled to heaven, I remember staggering
to the door and closing It, and
then going back to bed and howling
out the absurdity and the madness of
the whole thing. And while I laughed
my very soul was sick, for the girl
was gone by that time, and I knew by
all the loyalty that answers between
men for honor that I would have to
put her out of my mind.
And yet, all the night that followed,
filled as it was with the shrieking demons
of pain, I saw her as I had seen
her last, in the queer hat with green
ribbons. I told the doctor this, guardedly,
the next morning, and he said it
was the morphia, and that I was lucky
not to have seen a row of devils with
green tails.
I don't know anything about the
wreck of September 9 last. You who
swallowed the details with your coffee
and digested the horrors with your
chop, probably know a great deal more
than I do. I remember very distinctly
that the jumping and throbbing in my
arm brought me back to a world that
at first was nothing but sky, a heap of
clouds that I thought hazily were the
meringue on a blue charlotte russe.
As the sense of hearing was slowly
added to vision, I heard a woman near
me sobbing that she had lost her hat
pin. and she couldn't keep her hat on.
I think I dropped back into unconsciousness
again, for the next thing
I remember was of my blue patch of
sky clouded with smoke, of a strange,
roaring and crackling, of a rain of
fiery sparks in my face and of somebody
beating at me with feeble hands.
I opened my eyes and closed them
again: The girl in blue was bending
over me. With that imperviousness
to big things and keenness to small
that is the first effect of shock, I tried
to be facetious, when a spark stung
my cheek.
""You will have to rouse yourself!""
the girl was repeating desperately.
""You've been in fire twice already.""
A piece of striped ticking floated slowly
over my head. As the wind caught
it Its charring edges leaped into flame.
""Looks like a kite, doesn't it?"" I
remarked cheerfully. And then, as
my arm gave an excruciating throb—
""Jove, how my arm h u r t s ! ""
The girl bent over and spoke slowly,
distinctly, as one might speak to a
deaf person or a child.
""Listen, Mr. Blakeley,"" she said
earnestly. ""You must rouse yourself.
There has been a terrible accident
The second section ran into us. The
wreck is burning now, and if we don't
move, we will catch fire. Do you
hear?""
(TO BE CONTIXUKn.)
""IS"" OR ""ARE"" THE QUESTION
Professors of English Differ Widely
as to Some Correct Forms
of Speech.
That grammar ""knows how even to
control kings,"" was asserted some
time ago by Moliere; but Moliere, it
appears, is out of date. At least Prof.
Melville B. Anderson of the English
department at Stanford university is
authority for the statement that grammar,
far from controlling kings, may
itself be controlled by such humble
things as states of mind, the San
Francisco Chronicle says.
Prof. Anderson's views were called
out by a question which was submit-1
ted to him and also to Prof. Charles
Mills Gayley, the latter of the English
language and literary department of
the University of California.
Which, it was asked, is correct—
""The strength and the position of the.
bank is well known,"" or ""The strengthand
the position of the hank are well
known?"" Prof. Anderson answered
offhand that ""are"" should be used,
while Prof. Gayley replied that ""is""
is the correct form in grammatical society.
The difference of opinion between
the two authorities was disconcerting
to the layman who had sought the information
and at clubs on both sides
of the bay the matter has been discussed
with increasing interest during
the last two or three days. ""Is it Is,
or are it are?"" has become a question
second only in importance to that as
to what Mayor McCarthy will do n e x t
The Worst Ever.
""Is our new congressman homely?
Well I should say! Did you ever see
a photograph of him?""
""Why, no, but I've seen caricatures
of him.""
""Oh. they flatter him; you should
see one of his photographs.""—Catholic
Standard and Times.
The forest service has turned
300 Angora goats loose on mountain
slopes in western states, as an experiment
to keep the weeds from the
fire breaks.

a stepson, all living. She united with
the Methodist Eoiscopal Church in
1888 under the ministration of Rev.

In detailing plana for a crib to hold

In Rural New Yorker, says:
Such a building must contain 3,000
cubic feet of space and BUpport a

in a cijrucrlb la ventilation. A building
to contain 3.U0O cubic feet ot
space should be 12 feet wide, 2A
feet long and 10 feet between
Joists. The foundation should be pins
of concrete, and pyramidal, 1 by 15 feet
on the tup, live feet apart on the
sides, three feet apart on ends. The
center wall shuuld be continuous! and
may be of rough stone laid up roughly
In mortar. Good foundations should
be sought for. Stones with sharp angles
weighing five to six pounds may
be used In the pins; there should be
an Inch of matrix outside all stones.
Put the forms together with screws
and Inch lumber planed. Lubricate
the forms with soft soap before Ailing;
loosen screws to remove. Sills
should be 6 by 6 Inches, joists 2 by
8 inches, 12 feet 8 inches; studding 4

rafters 2 by 4 inches; plates should
be doubled. Place the poists on top
of sills and set studding well toed to
sills, 18-lnch on centers, and thoroughly
spike joists to studding. See Fig.
472, A. The upper tie joists may be
1 by 6 Inches, well nailed under plate
to studding. All material thus far
preferably hemlock. Pieces same
width as joists should be nicely nailed
on studding between joists on sill to
prevent rats getting on sill from Inside,
Fig. 47¾. The, floor should be
of 14 gauge perforated iron, or lay
one-half inch mesh wire on the Joists
and lay floor over this. The perforated
sheets would furnish ventilation.
On Inside of studding nail one-quarter
Inch mesh wire cloth, 11 to 12 gauge,
with light wire staples, from floor to
plate all over the inside except at
openings.
Between the studding cut in strips
all around and to the top, one-half by
6¼ inch, beveled on edges to a miter.
These strlpB should be set at an
angle of 45 degrees and may be three
inches apart. Use window blinds for
model. Cut gains one-quarter by onehalf
Inch in eidas of studding. Sae

be set up in pairs and painted before
being nailed In place. It will be Impossible

Scarcely a Dress Now Being Made
That la Not Intended for Late
Autumn Wear—Thlrt
Stuffs Used.
It la pretty safe to assume that
there will be no absolutely new fashions
until October, so that the prettiest
styles now offered for girls may
be employed until then with perfect
safety. In fact, there is scarcely a
dress now being made that is not intended
for quite late autumn use, all
the fashionable leaning toward thin
%
stuffs and pale tones making this
feasible.
""All of the best models now in use,""
said a leading dressmaker, ""will be
carried over for girls, with such
changes of a slight order aa tho present
trend seems to indicate. And
without a doubt such changes will
include the narrowing of skirts. Fundamentally,

PRETTY TEA CUP PIN-CUSHION
Charming Little Japanese China Ornaments
That Specially Lend Themselves
to Making of Pin Cushions.
Among those charming little Japanese
china ornaments—tea cups,
sugar basins, vases, etc., there are
many that specially lend themselves
to the making of pretty little plner.
Sometimes It la made by the out,
which is so done aa to give a drawn-ln
look about the ankles. Again there
will be very flat plaits stitched tp a
closely-fitting hip-yoke which cornea
far below the hipa. Btlll again there
are hip shirrlngs or bands put below
the knees to keep the skirt breadths
flat, these devlcea permitting more
ease in walking than the narrow cuts
allow. But so far I have avoided the
use of any exaggerated style for
misses, as the very narrow frocks are
extremely odd looking, and anything
that attracts attention is not the best
taste for a young girl. At present
there Is a special demand for three
models—the coat style for stout linens
and serges, the tunic one for more
elegant materials and some little gathered
models that would be suitable for
muslins, thin mercerized cottons, etc.""
For the coat suit, which is so importar
, a feature of the mlsB' wardrobe,
there are beautiful double-width
linens in the smart coarse weaves going
at 50 cents a yard. Five syards
will make a dress for a girl sixteen
years old, the coat coming something
below the hips and the skirt a plain
gored model. The dress, then, 11
made at home, buttons and furnishings
excepted, would cost only two
dollars and a half. For the tunic dress,
there is nothing prettier than voile
or marquisette, and without a doubt
such textiles will be worn in the house
all winter long.
Our illustration shows the coat
gown approved by fashion and good
sense. The skirt adopts some of the
growing scantness, but it is still wide
enough for easy movement and good
taste. The single-breasted coat fastens
with three buttons, and has the plain
back smartness demands, for the moment
a coat has a middle seam at the
back it cannot possibly have a new
look.
For this dress linen, pongee or
rajah silk would be excellent material
for the present moment—deep blue
linen, oyBter white pongee or beige
rajah, for the correct tone of either
white or tan is a matter of Importance.
So when buying remember that a
cream white is not quite so stylish as
one which has a grayish tone and that
any shade of tan is more effective if
it iB not too yellow. A gray linen
would be Immensely smart for the
dress, this without any tinge of slate

be carefully chosen to harmonize with
the color of the china, and it may be
fastened in Its place just inside the
edge of the cup with a little seccotine.
Apart fmm the ordinary usefulness
of a little pincushion of this nature,
these little Japanese cups and saucers
always make dainty ornaments, and
look wonderfully pretty upon a dressing
table. Smart little bows of ribbon
tied round the handles would go
Rtill further to make this article decorative,
and the saucer forms a useful
receptacle for hair-pins, buttons
and those little odds and ends that
have such a habit of accumulating

When Turning a Hem.
When turning a hem or measuring
a skirt to straighten It at the bottom,
a dressmaker of my acquaintance
saves herself time and nervous strain
by marking the place she wants on
the tape measure with a small paper
clip—one of the kinds that ""stay put.""
Then she does not have to searsh out
her desired mark every time she puts
a pin in the skirt, but feels automatically

According to statistics presented at
the annual session of the Michigan

for 1910 ia conservatively worth 1*0,-
000.000. President W. I. Bile* discussed
the matter in his annual addresB,
and the 126 members who listened
to him were in exceptionally
good humor. ""The crop was harvested
from 2,700,000 acres,"" he said, ""and
while the yield was below normal
in some places it was above in others.
The quality la exceptionally good.""
Aa yet the price for this year's yield
has not been fixed. A sale of 1,000
tons at 112 waa reported, but the
price it going to be higher. Old
hay is now selling at 117 and $18
a ton, and the new crop will drop
below this, though not a great deal.

Crisis Near for Spain and Rome.
Cardinal Merry del Val, the papal
secretary, is trying through official,
semi-official and private channels to
reach an understanding with the
Spanish government.
It Is believed that the next note
from the Vatican will announce an
agreement or a definite rupture between
Rome and Madrid.
A good omen was found in the
presence of the Marquis de Gonzales,
the Spanish charge d'affairs to the
Vatican, and the staff of the Spanish
embassy at the mass celebrated by
Cardinal Merry del Val in honor of
the anniversary of th^ coronation of
Pope Pius X.
In view of the strained relations
between the holy see and Spain, the
decision of the Spanish represenetatives
to be present at the morning
function or to absent themselves was
awaited with great interest.

disbursements by $20,214,029.
These ordinary receipts were greater
by $15,000,000, approximately, than

A Bernnardt Trick.
Mme. Sarah Bernhardt, who is supposed
to be something of an artist as
well as an actress, was recently called
upon in one of her marvelous creations
to enact the role of a sculptor,
and to model a certain bust in view of
the audience. This fairly electrified
the critics, but when going into rhapsodies
over the technical skill in han-
- dling the clay which Mme. Bernhardt
exhibited they showed that they knew
little of the artistic tricks of actors
and actresses; as a matter of fact, she
does nothing of the kind. The bust
is modeled and baked, and over it is
placed damp clay of the same color.
This the talented actress merely pulls
off, exposing the beautifully modeled
head underneath.

LEG A MASS OF HUMOR
""About seven years ago a small
abrasion appeared on my right leg
Just above my ankle. It Irritated me
so that I began to scratch it, and it
began to spread until my leg from my
ankle to the knee was one solid scale
like a scab. The irritation was always
worse at night and would not allow
me to sleep, or my wife either, and it
was completely undermining our
health. I lost fifty pounds in weight
and was almost out of my mind with
pain and chagrin as no matter where
the irritation came, at work, en the
street or in the presence of company,
I would have to scratch it until I had
the blood running down into my shoe.
I simply cannot describe my suffering
during those seven years. The
pain, mortification, loss of sleep, both
to myself and wife 1B simply indescribable
on paper and one has to experience
.it to know what it is.
""I tried all kinds of doctors and remedies
but I might as well have thrown
my money down a Bewer. They would
dry up for a little while and fill me
with hope only to break out again Just
as bad if not worse. I had given up
hope of ever being cured-when I was
induced by my wife to give the Cutlcura
Remedies a trial. After taking
the Cuticura Remedies for a little
while I began to see a change, and
after taking a dozen bottles of Cuticura
Resolvent in conjunction with
the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment,
the trouble had entirely disappeared
and my leg was as fine as the
day I was born. Now after a lapse of
six months with no signs of a recurrence
I feel perfectly safe in extending
to you my heartfelt thanks for the
good the Cuticura Remedies have done
for me. I shall always recommend
them to my friends. W. H. White,
312 E. Cabot St., Philadelphia, Pa., Feb.
4 and Apr. 13, 1909.""

Here is a glimpse of the horrors of
a western desert taken from the Goldflld

came to Qoldfleld yesterday to endeavor
to establish the Identity of the

""Mr. Campbell encountered the unknown

condition. He was in the last
stages of desert exhaustion, devoid
of clothing, sunburned, blistered and
crazed, with his tongue swollen enormously,
a pitiable object, and unable
to speak.

Our Trip to Georgia.
Continued from 1MI week,
On ariuiug in the morning we
beheld a moat beautiful day and
looked out upon t h e valley with
here and 'here a small patch of
corn, irregular in shape to conform
to some small apriug branch,
or stream and they are numerous,
sometimes two or three crossing a
patch of au acre or two and coming
from different directions, meet
somewhere and form a larger
stream which eventually finds its
way to the Chattahoochee river.
Very few wells are used here but
mostly springs. The wells are all
of the windlas variety, occasionally
the bucket being pulled up by
baud over a pully. The water is
all soft, tho not so good as that in
Michigan.
The crops raised in White
county are mostly corn and potatoes,
some wheat and a few oats.
The corn crop last season was
nearly a failure and it is hard for
t h e mountaineers to secure
enough for their bread as it is all

Cornelia their nearest railroad
station. The stores on the interior
do not carry such stuff and not

The Best Honr of Life
is when you do some threat deed or
discover Rome wonderful fact. This
hour came to J. R. Pitt of Rocky Mt.
N. C. when he was suffering intensely
as he says, ""from the worst cold I ever
had I then proved to my gr.at satisfaction,
what a wonderful Cold and
Cough cure Dr. Kings New Discovery
is, For after taking one bottle I was
entirely cured. You can't say anylarge
as tame ones at home
very sweet and good.
Now perhaps a word about the
weather. When we left home we
were sweltering with the heat
most of the time only the fourth
heard wild turkey which came to
within, a quarter of a mile from
the ^nick bat with the leaves on
the"" flushes they are hard to find.
Rabbits are plentiful and we see
them every d*y when eaWng
breakfast or Bupper in the t e n t
They are quite destructive to certain
crops. Bear—the little brown
oues—are also here but we bay,©
not seen them and deer are very
plenty but the leaves and brush
make them hard to find. This
section would certainly be a great
place for sportsmeu in the winter
season. Other birds are not as
plentiful here now as in the
winter seasou as most of them
have gone north for the summer.
However, there are some youngsters
that serve as alarm clocks at
abouj 4 o'clock a. m.
As said before, most of the people
here raise crops mostly to live
on. When the crops are ""laid by""
(or work on them finished as we
would say) many of them take up
miuiug of one kind or another.
This is in the mining section of
Georgia and white gold miuing
predominates we fiud mica, asbestoes
and some iron mines. Just
at present many of the miners are
idle owing to the fact that they
are busy with their harvest and
hoeing their corn. When that is
laid by they will go at it ""right
smart"" and then they will have
some money. Some of the mines
were being worked and it was our
priviledge to watch the operation
of digging up the land and sluicing
it all down through the boxes
over dfftes and slats which catch
and hold the gold, it being heavier.
We watched the process with
much interest from the start to
the ""clean up"" when the gold and
sand were panned down and the
gold finally rescued by quicksilver
or ""quick"" as it is termed. Then
the quick is squeezed out on
practically the same plan as used
by a dentist and th^e gold remaining
in the chamois skin. This
gold is then placed in a pan and
heated until the residue of the
mercury is burned off and you
have the ""pure gold refined in the
fire.
We were always of a curious
turn of mind and wanted tc do
the uncommon so^we were allowed
f ^
to go into the ""dirt, help wash,
sluice, fork and pan the stuff and
brought some of the ""yellow metal""
home with us as a souvenir.
We found it was an exciting game M o t o r O i l

A rat got tangled up In one of the

great blast furnace mill of the United
State Bteel corporation a t Gary, I n d -
lays Louisville Courier-Journal. It ro-

money at the rate of a thousand
dollars a minute. Now the steel truat
Is advertising for cats. Advertisements
have been inserted in the Gary newspapers,
offering BO cents apiece, with
no limitations as to age, sex, else,
pedigree or character. Fifty cents a
head is a good price for cats and the
officials of the steel trust are likely to
have to contend with an embarrassment
of offerings. When the news percolates
to all the cities and small
towns of Indiana there will be a rush
of feline BhipnientB to Gary and the
steel trust will find itself with a surplus
of cats scarcely less troublesome
than the overplus of rats with which it
has been contending heretofore. Hundreds
of Indiana families will willingly
part with all their feline possessions
at a compensation of 50 cents per cat.
Borne thousands of small boys will explore

The report from Pisa that royal engineers
state that the inclination of
the leaning tower at that place has Increased
eight Inches and that the
structure Is likely to collapse will tend
to further Increase the number of
those who believe that the tower was
never intended to be a freak of masonry,
but that It became a wonder by
the yielding of its foundation on one
side. As a ""drawing card"" for tourists
the famous leaning tower has had
value in addition to the historic considerations,
and if it should fall there
would doubtless be a demand for its
reconstruction. A modern builder
could give Pisa a leaning tower of
greater Inclination by using an anchored
steel skeleton and clothing it
with well fastened veneer.
' A speaker at a meeting of a medical
society in New Jersey declared that
some of the greatest surgeons living
had left sponges, forceps and other Instruments
in the abdominal cavities

practise was ""Inexcusable."" This
makes cheerful reading for the lay
public, especially that portion of it that
has hospital experience In prospect;
{but the statement of the existence of
this practise is also puzzling from the
tact that it must be a more or less expensive
practise to the surgeons themselves
to be so careless about losing
good instruments.

Assured, Says Physician.
Mayor William J. Gaynor is the
most robust invalid they ever had,
is the opinion of his physicians. The
bullet which plowed its way into the
back of his neck when James J. Gallagher
made his assault on him on
board t h e Europe-bound steamer in
Hoboken, is still embedded in the vicinity
of the palate. It is not in two
parts, a s at first supposed, from the
radiograph examination, the piece in
a second examination, Thursday evening,
proving to be a splintered bone.
There is every indication that no immediate
operation is intended.
The mayor's son, Rufus Gaynor,
said t h a t an attending physician told
him t h a t barring accident his father's
recovery is practically assured.
Mayor Gaynor continues to show
steady improvement. The physicians
who a r e In attendance upon him at
St. Mary's hospital, Hoboken, said
Sunday that he was stronger than he
had been at any time since he was
shot down last Tuesday morning, and
that every symptom was one characteristic
of unbroken progress toward
recovery.
Knights Templar Officers Elected.

Knights Caught on Burning Pier.
The lives of 50 persons, including
numerous Knights Templar, were In

on which many persons were engaged
in setting off a Knights Templar fireworks
display caught fire. The breakwater
was far from the shore and
several persons leaped into the lake.
They were rescued by launches. Others
were taken off by boats.
The fire was extinguished by fire

damage had been done, The fire
started in the supply of fireworks.
Carllsts Ready to Start Fight.
Don Jaime, the Carllst pretender to
the Spanish throne, Issued a letter addressed
to the Carlists, In which he
advises followers to resist with all
their force the rising tide of radicalism,
but not to have recourse to violence.
The pretender says he does not propose
to depart from pacific methods
unless the existing regime is threatened.
""If revolution menaces the religious
family and property traditions of Catholic
Spain,"" he adds, ""I will do my
duty.""
One of the recipients of the letter
said:
""We are all organized and ready to
rise at. a signal, but will attempt nothing
against the present dynasty unless
the king totally forgets his title of
Catholic majesty, or revolution breaks
out. For us the dynastic question is
secondary to the essential point,
which Is the preservation of the religious
traditions of Spain.""

SYNOPSIS.
Lawrence Blakuley, lawyer, goes to
Pittsburg with the forged notes in the
Bronson case to take the depoaltlon of the
chief witness for the prosecution, John
Gllrnore, a millionaire. In the latter'a
house the lawyer Is attracted by t h e picture
of a girl whom Gilmore explains Is
his granddaughter, Alipon West. He s a y s
her father 1B a rascal and a friend of
the forger. Standing in line to buy a
Pullman ticket Blakeley Is requested by
a lady to buy her one. He gives her lower
eleven and retains lower ten. He finds
a man In a drunken stupor in lower ten
and retires in lower nine. H e a w a k e n s In
lower seven und tinds his hag and clothing
missing. The man In lower tun is
found murdered.
C H A P T E R IV—Continued.
Some one was on the floor at our
feet, face down, head peering under
the berth. Now he got up without
apology, revealing the man wbo had
summoned the conductor. He was
dusty, alert, cheerful, and he dragged
up with him the dead man's suit-case.
The sight of it brought back to me at
once my own predicament.
""I don't know whether there's any
connection or not, conductor,"" I said,
""but I am a victim, too, in less degree;
I've been robbed of everything I possess,
except a red and yellow bathrobe.
I happened to be wearing the
bath-robe, which was probably the
reason the thief overlooked it.""
There was a- fresh murmur in th«
crowd. Somebody laughed nervously.
The conductor was irritated.
""1 can't bother with that now,"" he
snarled. ""The railroad company is
responsible for transportation, not for
clothes, jewelry and morals. If people
want to be stabbed and robbed in
the company's cars, it's their affair.
Why didn't you sleep in your clothes?
I do.""
I took an angry step forward. Then
somebody touched my arm, and I unclenched
my fist. I could understand
the conductor's position, and beside,
in the law, I had been guilty myself
of contributory negligence.
""I'm not trying to make you responsible,""
I protested, as amiably as
I could, ""and I believe the clothes the
thief left are as good as my own. They
are certainly newer. But my valise
contained valuable papers, and it is to
your interest as well as mine to find
the man who stole it.""
""Why, of course,"" the doctor said
shrewdly. ""Find the man who skipped
out with this gentleman's clothes, and
you've probably got the murderer.""
""I went to bed In lower nine,"" I
said, my mind full again of my lost
papers, ""and I wakened in number
seven. 1 was up in tbe night prowling
around, as I waa unable to sleep,
and I must have gone back to the
wrong berth. Anyhow, until the porter
wakened me this morning I knew
nothing of my mistake. In the interval
the thief—murderer, too, perhaps
—must have come back, discovered
ray error, and taken advantage of it
to further his escape.""
The Inquisitive man looked at me
from between narrowed eyelids, ferret-
like.
""Did anyone on the train suspect
you of having valuable papers?"" he
inquired. The crowd was listening Intently.
""No one,"" I answered promptly and
positively. j
The doctor was investigating the
murdered man's effects. The pockets
of his trousers contained the usual
miscellany of keys and small change,
while In his hip pocket was found a
small pearl-handled revolver of the
type women usually keep around. A
gold watch with a Masonic charm had
slid down between the mattress and
the window, while a showy diamond
stud was still fastened in the bosom
of his shirt. Taken as a whole, the
personal belongings were those of a
man of some means, but without any
particular degree of breeding. The
doctor heaped them together.
""Either robbery waB not the motive,""
he reflected, ""or the thief overlooked
these things in his hurry.""
The latter hypothesis seemed the
more tenable, when, after a thorough
search, we found no pocketbook and
less than a dollar In small change.
The suit-case gave no clew. It contained
one empty leather-covered flask
and a pint bottle, also empty, a change
of linen and some collars with the
laundry mark, S. H. In the leather
tag on the handle was a card with the
name Simon Harrington, Pittsburg.
The conductor sat down on my un-
CHAPTER V.
The Woman"" in the Next Car.
With the departure of the conductor
and the doctor, the group around
lower ten broke up, to re-form in
smaller knots through the car. The
porter remained on guard. With
something of relief I sank Into a seat.
I wanted to think, to try to remember
the details of the previous night. But
my inquisitive acquaintance had other
Intentions. He came up and sat down
beside me. Like the conductor, he had
taken notes of the dead man's belongings,
his name, address, clothing
and the general circumstances of the
crime. Now with his little notebook
open before him, he prepared to enjoy
the minor sensation of tbe robbery.
""And now for the second victim,""
he began cheerfully. ""What is your
name and address, please?""
I eyed him with suspicion.
""I have lost everything but my name
and address,"" I parried. ""What do you
want them for? Publication?""
""Oh, no; dear, no!"" he said, shocked
at my misapprehension. ""Merely for
my own enlightenment. I like to
gather data of this kind and draw my
own conclusions. Most Interesting and
engrossing. Once or twice I have
forestalled the results of police Investigation—
but entirely for my own
amusement.""
I nodded tolerantly. Most of us
have hobbles; I knew a man once who
carried his handkerchief up his sleeve
and had a mania for old colored prints
cut out of Godey's Lady Book.
""I use that Inductive method originated
by Poe and followed since with
such success by Conan Doyle. Have
you ever read Gaboriau? Ah, you have
missed a treat, indeed. And now, to
get down to business, what is the
name of our escaped thief and probable
murderer?""
""How on earth do I know?"" I demanded
Impatiently. ""He didn't write
it in blood anywhere, did he?""
The little man looked hurt and disappointed.
""Do you mean to say,"" he asked,
""that the pockets of those clothes are
entirely empty?""
The pockets! In the excitement I
had forgotten entirely the sealskin
grip which the porter now sat at my
feet, and I had not investigated the
pockets at all. With the inquisitive
man's pencil taking note of everything
that I found, I emptied them on
the opposite seat.

pencils and a fountain pen; lower

of red In the scarf? Fact, I assure you.
I kept a record once of the summer
attire of men, and 90 per c e n t followed
my rule. Dark men like you
affect navy blue, or brown.
I n spite of myself I was amused at
the man's shrewdness.
""Yes; the suit be took was dark—
a blue,"" I said.
He rubbed his hands and Bmlled at
mo delightedly.
""Then you wore black shoes, not
tan,"" he said, with a glance at the aggressive
yellow ones I wore.
""Right again,"" I acknowledged.
""Black low shoes and black embroidered
bose. If you keep on you'll have
a motive lor tbe crime, and the murderer's
present place of hiding. And
if you come back to the smoker with
me, I'll give you an opportunity t o
judge if he knew good whisky from
bad.""
I put the articles from the pockets
back again and got up. ""I wonder if
there is a diner on?"" I aaid. ""I need
something sustaining after all this.""
I waB conscious then of some one
at my elbow. I turned to see the
young woman whose face was so
vaguely familiar. In the very act of
speaking she drew back suddenly and
colored.
""Oh—I beg your pardon,"" she said
hurriedly, ""I—thought you were—
some one else."" She was looking in a
puzzled fashion at my coat. I felt
all the cringing guilt of a man who
has accidentally picked up the wrong
umbrella; my borrowed caller sat
tight on my neck.
""I'm sorry,"" I said idiotically. ""I'm
sorry, but—I'm not."" I have learned
since that she has bright brown hair,
with a loose wave in it that drops
over her -^ears, and dark blue eyes
with black lashes and—but what does
it matter? One enjoys a picture as a
whole; not as the sum of its parts.
She saw the flask then, and her errand
came back to her. ""One of the
ladies at the end of the car has
fainted,"" she explained. ""I thought
perhaps a stimulant—""
I picked up the flask at once and
followed my guide down the aisle. Two
or three women were working over
the woman who had fainted. They
had opened her collar and taken out
her hair pins, whatever good that
might do. The stout woman was vigorously
rubbing her wrists, with
the idea, no doubt, of working up her
pulse! The unconscious woman was
the one for whom I had secured lower
II at the station.
I poured a little liquor in a bungling
masculine fashion between her
lips as she leaned back, with closed
eyes. She chocked, coughed and rallied
somewhat.
""Poor thing,"" said the stout lady.
""As she lies back that way I almost
think it was my mother; she used to
faint so much.""
""It would make anybody faint,""
chimed in another. ""Murder and robbery
in one night and on one car. I'm
thankful I always wear my rings in a
bag around my neck—even If they do
get under me and keep me awake.""
The girl in blue was looking at us
with wide, startled eyes. I saw her
pale a little, saw the quick, apprehensive
glance which she threw at her
traveling companion, the small woman
I had noticed before. There was an
exchange—almost a clash—of glances.
The small woman frowned. That was
all. I turned my attention again to
my patient.
She had revived somewhat, and now
she asked to have the window opened.
The train had stopped again and the
car was oppressively hot. People
around were looking at their watches
and grumbling over the delay. The
doctor bustled in with a remark about
its being his busy day. The amateur
detective and the porter together
mounted guard over lower ten. Outside
the heat rose in shimmering
waves from the tracks; the very wood
of the car was hot to touch. A Camberwell
Beauty darted through the
open door and made its way, in erratic
plunges, great wings waving,
down the sunny aisle. All around lay
the peace of harvested fields, the quiet
of the country.
When she saw me sne moved aside,
and I stepped out betide her. Behind
us the track curved sharply; tbe early
sunBhlne threw the train, in long black
shadow, oyer, the hot earth. Forward
somewhere they were hammering.
Tbe girl said nothing, but her profile
was strained and anxious.
""I—if you have lost anything,"" I
began, ""I wish you would let me try to
help. Not that my own succesb Is anything
to boast of.""
She hardly glanced at me. It was
not flattering.
""I have not been robbed, if that Is
what you mean,"" she replied quietly.
""I am—perplexed. That Is all.""
There waa nothing to say to that.
I lifted my bat—tbe other fellow's
hat—and turned to go back to my car.
Two or three members of the train
crew, including the conductor, were
standing in the shadow talking. And
at that moment, from a farmhouse
near came the tswift clang of the
breakfast bell, calling in the hands
from barn and pasture. I turned back
to the girl.
""Wu may be here for an hour,"" I
said, ""and there is no buffet car on.
If 1 remember my yuuth, that bell
means ham and eggs* and country butter
and coffee. If you care to run
the risk—""
""I am not hungry,"" she said, ""but
perhaps a cup of coffee—dear me, I
believe I am hungry,"" bhe finished.
""Only—"" She glanced back of her.
""I can bring your companion,"" I suggested,
without enthusiasm. But the
young woman shook her head.
""She is not hungry,"" she objected,
""and she is very—well, I know she
wouldn't come. Do you suppose we
could make it if we run?""
""I haven't any idea,"" I said cheerfully.
""Any old train would be better
than this one, if it does leave us behind.""
""Yes. Any train would be better
than this one,"" she repeated gravely.

The Girl in Blue.
I was growing more and more irritable.
The thought of what the
loss of the notes meant was fast
crowding the murder to the back of
my mind. The forced inaction waa
intolerable. The porter had reported
no bag answering the description of
mine on the train, but I was disposed
to make my own investigation. I made
a tour of the cars, scrutinizing every
variety of hand luggage, ranging from
luxurious English bags with gold
mountings to the wicker nondescript
of the day coach a t the rear. I was
not alone in my quest, for the girl in
blue waa just ahead of me. Car by
car she preceded me through the train,
unconscious that I was behind her,
looking at each passenger as she
passed. I fancied the proceeding was
distasteful, but that she had determined
on a course and waa carrying it
through. We reached the end of the
train almost together—empty-handed,
both of us.
The girl went out to the platform.
""Where Did You Get T h a t ? ""
I found myself watching her changing
expression. I had spoken two dozen
words to her and already I felt that
I knew the lights and shades In her
voice—I, who had always known how
a woman rode to hounds, and who
never could have told the color of
her hair.
I stepped down on the ties and
turned to assist her, and together we
walked back to where the conductor
and the porter from our car were in
close conversation. Instinctively my
hand went to my cigarette pocket and
came out empty. She saw the gesture.
""If you want to smoke, you may,""
she said. ""I have a big cousin who
smokes all the time. He says I am
'kippered.'""
I drew out the gun-metal cigarette
case and opened it. But this most
commonplace action had an extraordinary
result: The girl beside me
stopped dead still and stood staring
at it with fascinated eyes.
""Is—where did you get that?"" she
demanded, with a catch in her voice;
her gaze still fixed on the cigarette
case.

Art in Commerce.
There must be a considerable touch
of the artist in the modern grocer.
Groceries at first blush would seem
to be colorless, unromantic things, but
any such impression Is a wrong one.
Very little imagination is sufficient, to
reveal the real romance there is in
groceries, and as to the artistic capabilities
they possess in capable hands
there Is ocular demonstration in our
many big, fine grocery stores that
they are considerable. The grocer of
te-day recognizes the great value of
attractiveness. A man may strongly
desire something, but when it is put
up in a way which attracts and
pleases his eye he more than wants
it; he finds he cannot do without i t

Dollie Davis of Dundee was a

His squareness in both business and
political affairs stands out in bold relief,
and we v\ith many of his friends,
believe that if nominated and elected,
he will stand for the people who made
it possible for him to attain a high
honor. The thought that he has been
placed in a position of trust by friends [ fcu6c ]ay
will bo uppermost in his mind when
called upon to make a decision, and
result ef his deliberations will be for
the betterment of his constituents.
A man's convictions' are the best
guidepost and a senator who will be
guided by what he believes to be right
rather than the thoughts of another
is the person who is most desired in
any community, Fentons candidate
is a man of this characteristic and we
sincerely hope that he may be successful
in his desired attainments.

FEAR REVOLT IN SPAIN.
Troops Ruined to Capital to Pr»v«nt
Demonstrations.
Alarmed by rears that the proposed
demonbiratiou of clerical forces at
San Sebastian, the summer capital,
will assume the character of an uprising,
the government began to rusa
troops into San Sebastian.
A regiment of hussars left Madrid
for San Sebastian Thursday morning,
followed by another regiment of cavalry
and two battalions of chausseura.
A regiment of infantry also was ordered
to San Sebastian from Vittoria.
Both Gen. Weyler, the captain-general
of Catalonia, and Count Sagasta,
the minister of the interior, will go
to San Sebastian to be in immediate
charge in case of disorder.
The government believes tkat the
Carlists and the members of' the religious
orders which are numerous
in northern Spain are openly Inciting
their followers to violence. The
governors of the Baseneau province
and the adjoining province of Navarre
issued orders to the mayors of all th^e
municipalities in these provinces to
warn Catholics against assembling or
entering the city of Sebastian with
arms, and that the most energetic
measures would be taken to repress
any attempt at a manifestation.
Heavy Apple Crop in U. S, Predicted-
C. P. Rothwell, of Martinsburg, W.
Va., secretary of the International Apple
Shippers' association, submitted
his annual report on the condition of
the apple crop Aug. 1, compared with
the same date a year ago.
""If present prospects are maintained,""
he says, ""the country will
have plenty of apples of better than
average quality. The Pacific states
will produce one of the heaviest crops
ever harvested.""
A summary of the report:
The New England crop shows an increase
of about 40 per cent.
The central group shows increases
in Ohio, Delaware and New Jersey
over last year. New York's crop will
equal last year's. Pennsylvania, Michigan
and Wisconsin show a decline of
from 5 to 10 per cent.
The middle west, or Ben Davis
group, promises a crop practically
equal to one year ago.
The southern and Pacific groups will
show an increase of fully 50 per cent.
Canada, not including the province
of Nova Scotia, shows a decline of 30
per cent.
On the question of nuallty the situation
is decidedly better than one year
ago.
Nearly 7,000 Die In Pfague.
Russia's scourge, the cholera, continues

Figures furnished by the central
sanitary bureau show that in the week
from July 24 to July 30, the latest
avai'able complete figures, there were

RAW ECZEMA ON HANDS
""I had eczema on my hands for ten
years. I had three good doctors but
none of them did any good. I then
used one box of Cutlcura Ointment
and three bottles of Cutlcura Resolvent
and was completely cured. My hands
were raw all over, Inside and out, and
the eczema was spreading all over my
body and limbs. Before I had used one
bottle, together with the Cutlcura
Ointment, my sores were nearly
healed over, and by the time I had
used the third bottle, I was entirely
well. To any one who has any skin
or blood disease I would honestly advise
them to fool with nothing else,
but get Cutlcura and got well. My
hands have never given me the least
bit of trouble up to now.
""My daughter's hands this summer
became perfectly raw with eczema.
She could get nothing that would do
them any good until she tried Cutlcura,
She used Cutlcura Resolvent
and Cutlcura Ointment and in two
weeks they were entirely cured. I
have used Cutlcura for other members
of my family and It always proved successful.

CHAPTER I I I . ^
Across the Ai»le.
No solution offering Itself. I went
back to my berth. The snorer across
had apparently strangled, or turned
over, and so after a time I dropped
asleep, to be awakened by the morning
sunlight across my face.
I felt for my watch, yawning prodigiously.
I reached under the pillow
and failed to find it, but something
scratched the back of my hand. I sat
up irritably and nursed the wound,
which was bleeding a little. Still
drowsy, x I felt more cautiously for
what 1 supposed had been my scarf
pin, but there was nothing there.
Wide awake now, I reached for my
traveling bag, on the chance that I
had put my watch in there. 1 had
drawn the satchel to me and had my
hand on the lock before I realized
that it was not my own!
Mine was of alligator hide. I had
killed the beast in Florida, after the
expenditure of enough money to have
bought a housauind enough energy to
have built one. The bag I held in my
hand was a black one, sealskin, 1
think. The staggering thought of
what the loss of my bag f^eant to me
put my finger orf the V4U*fcnd kept it
there until the porter came,
""Did you ring, sir?"" he asked, poking
his head through the curtains obsequiously.
McKnight objects that
nobody can poke his head throught
a curtain and be obsequious. But Pullman
potters can and do.
""No,"" 1 snapped. ""It rang itself.
What in thunder do you mean by exchanging
my valise for this one?
You'll have to And it if you waken the
entire oar to do It. There are important
papers in that grip.""
""Porter,"" called a feminine voice
from an upper berth near by. ""Porter,
am 1 to dangle here all day?""
""Let her dangle,"" I said savagely.
""You find that bag of mine.""
The porter frowned. Then he
looked at me with injured dignity. ""1
brought in your overcoat, sir. You
carried your own valise.""
The fellow was right! In an excess
of caution 1 had refused to relinquish
ray alligator bag, and had turned over
my other traps to the porter. It was
clear enough then. 1 was simply a
victim of the usual sleeping car robbery
I was in a lather of perspiration
by that time: The lady down the
car was still dangling and talking
about it; still nearer a feminine voice
v as giving quick orders in French,
presumably to a maid. The porter
waR on his knees, looking under the
berth.
""Not there, sir,"" he said, dusting his
knees. He was visibly more cheerful,
having been absolved of responsibility.
""Reckon it was taken while you
was wanderln' around the car last
n i g h t ""
""I'll give you $50 If you find it,"" 1
said. ""A hundred. Reach up my
shoes and I'll—""
1 stopped abruptly. My eyea were
fixed in stupefied amazement on a
coat that hung fronj a hook a» the
foot of my berth. From the coat they
traveled, da^ed, to the soft-bosomed
shirt beside it, and from there to the
collar and cravat in the n,et hammock
ncross the windows.
""A hundred!"" the porter repeated,
showing hia teeth. Rut I caught him
by the arm and pointed to the foot of
the berth.
""What—what color's that coat?"" I
asked unsteadily.
""Gray, sir."" His tone was one of
gentle reproof.
""And—the trousers?""
He reached over and held up one
creased leg. ""Gray, too,"" he grinned.
""Ciray!"" 1 cow Id not believe even his
corroboration of my own eyes. ""Rut
my clothes were blue!"" The porter
was amused; he dived under the curtains
and brought up a pair of shoesv
""Your shoes, sir,"" he said with a
flourlib. ""keckon you've been dream*
Ing. air."" ••<
Now, there ore two thin** I always
avoW to my drew—possibly an idiosyncracy
ol my bachelor existence.
These tabooed articles axe red neckties
and tan shoes. And not only were
the shoes the porter lifted from the
floor of a gorgeous shade of yellow,
but the scarf which WAS run through
the turned over collar was a gaudy
red.. It took a full minute for the real
import of things to penetrate my
dated intelligence. Then I gave a
vindictive kick at the offending ensemble
' T h e y ' r e not mine, any of them,"" I
snarled. ""They are some other fellow's.
I'll sit here until I take root
before I put them on.""
""They're nice lookln' clothes,"" t h e
porter put In, eying the red tie with
appreciation. ""Ain't everybody would
have left you anything.""
""Call the conductor,"" I said short-
Iy. Then a possible explanation occurred
to me. ""Oh, porter—what's
the number of this berth?""
""Seven, sir. If you cain't wear
those shoes—""
""Seven!"" In my relief I almost
shouted It. ""Why, then, it's simple
enough. I'm In the wrong berth,
that's all. My berth is nine. Only—
where the deuce is the man who belongs
here?""
""Likely in nine, sir."" The darky
was enjoying himself. ""You and the
other gentleman Just got mixed in the
night. That's all, sir."" It was clear
that he thought I had been drinking.
I drew a long breath. Of course,
that was the explanation. This was
number seven's berth, that was 'his
soft.hat, this hia umbrella, his coat,
his bag. My ^r.age turned to Irritation
at myself.
T h e porter went to the- next berth
and I could hear hfs Boftly Insinuating
voice. ""Time to get up, air. Are
you awake? Time to get up.""
There was no response from number
nine. I guessed that he had
opened the curtains and was looking
in. Then he came back.
""Number nine's empty,"" he said.
""Empty! Do you mean my clothes
aren't there?"" I demanded. ""My valise?
Why don't you answer me?""
, ""You doan' give me time,"" he retorted.
""There ain't nothln' there. But
it's been slept in.""
The disappointment was the greater
lor my few moments of hope. I sat
up in a white fury and put on the
clothes that had been left me. Then,
still raging, I sat on the edge of the
berth and put on the obnoxious tan
shoes. The porter, called to his duties,
made little excursions back to
me, to offer assistance and to chuckle
at my discomfiture. He stood by, outwardly
decorous, but with little irritating
g J n s oif amusement around nis
mouth, when I finally emerged with
the red tie In my hand.
""Bet the owner of those clothes did
not become them any more than you
do,"" he said, as he plied the ubiquitous
whisk broom.
""When I get the owner of these
clothes,"" I retorted grimly, ""he will
need a shroud. Where's the conductor?""
The conductor was coming, he assured
me; also that there wars no bag
answering the description of mine on
sat down, and, hands t h r u s t deep into
the other man's pockets, stared ruefully
at the other man's shoes.
The stage was set. In a moment
the curtain was going u p on the first
act of the play. And for a while we
would all say our little speeches and
ning our little songs, and I, the villain,
would hold center stage while the
gallery biased.
The porter was standing beside lower
ten. He had reached In and was
knocking valiantly. But his efforts
met with no response. H e winked at
me over his shoulder; then he unfaat
ened the curtains and bent forward.
Behind him, 1 saw blm stiffen, heard
his muttered exclamation, saw the
bluish pallor that spread over his
face and neck. AH he retreated a
step the interior of lower ten lay open
to the day.
The man in it was on his back, the
early mornlUK sun striking full on
his upturned face. But the light did
not disturb him. A small stain of red
dyed the front of bis night clothes
and trailed across the sheet: his halfopen
eyes were fixed, without seeing,
on the shining wood above.
I grasped the porter's shaking shoulders
and stared down to where the
train Imparted to the body a grisly
suggestion of motion. ""Good Lord,"" I
gasped, ""the man's been murdered!""
""The Man's Been Murdered!""
the car. I slammed my way to the
dressing room, washed, choked my
fifteen anfc a half neck into a fifteen
collar, and was back again in less
than Ave minutes. The car, as well as
itis occupants, wag gradually taking
on a daylight appearance. I hobbled
fov for one of the shoes was abominably
tight, and found myself facing a
young woman In blue with an unforgetable
face. (""Three women already.""

to be divided between her
three nephews, now aged 24. 27 and
?i, and her three nieces, aged 1ft. 21
and 22, in equal parts on the following
conditions:
The six nephews and nieces must
all live in the house formerly inhabited
by their aunt, with the executor,
a lawyer, whose business it will be to
see that the conditions of t h e will
are strictly observed. None of the
nephews is to marry before reaching
hia fortieth year, nor the nieces before
their thirtieth, under the penalty
that the share of the one so marrying
will be divided among the others.
Further, the six legatees are admonished
never to quarrel among
themselves. If one should do so persistently
the executor is empowered
to turn him or her out of t h e house
and divide the share as in t h e case of
marriage.
The executor Is himself forbidden to
marry or to reside elsewhere than in
the house with the legatees as long
as he holds his office, to which a
handsome remuneration la attached.
The old maid is said to have made
this peculiar will because her nephews
and nieces continually worried her
during her life by asking her to give
them money to enable them to marry
—requests she always refused.

P r o p e r Food—
Grape=Nuts
People can live In a temperature
which feels from ten to twenty degrees
cooler than their neighbors enjoy, by
regulating t h e d i e t
The plan is to avoid m e a t entirely for
breakfast; use a goodly allowance of
fruit, either fresh or cooked. Then follow
with a saucer containing about four
heaping teaapoonfuls of Grape-Nuts,
treated with a little rich cream. Add to
this about two slices of crisp toast with
a meager amount of butter, and one
cup of well-made Postuin.
By this selection of food t h e bodily
energy is preserved, while the hot, carbonaceous
foods have been left o u t
The result is a very marked difference
in the temperature of the body, and
to this comfortable condition is added
the certainty of ease and perfect digestion,
for the food being partially predigested
is quickly assimilated by t h e
digestive machinery.
Experience and experiment In food,
and its application to the human body
has brought out these facts. They
can be made use of and add materially
to the comfort of the user.

The opportunities for lady-like, attractive,
and congenial work in the
city of Detroit have frequently been
the subject of conversation among
those persons who study sociological
conditions, but not enough importance
has been given to the; equally interest- \
ing fact that these opportunities are '
•tso accessible to girls who live at a !
distance from Detroit. |
Yet there are hundreds of bright •
girls living in the many smaller towns
,of Michigan just as eager to make j
use of their intelligence, capacity, and
ability for steady work as there are \
In the largest city of our State. It
, seems odd, at first glance, why attention
has not. already been drawn to
this fact, and it may be that the dls- J
tance between two apparently remote
itowns was supposed to be an insuperable
obstacle against such girls taking
advantage of their own willingness
iand ability. But this need no longer
be considered in the same light as
i heretofore.
The Michigan State Telephone Company,
a corporation which is part of
the immense body supplying telephone;
; service all over the United States, is j
;in a position not only to provide con- \
genial employment to the right kind
of girl but also to prol.nct her as an
; Individual from the annoyances and
Inconvenience?; experh need by so
many others earning their own living;
in Detroit, and this, too, no matter how
1 far her home may be from that city.
limCH AT ALL HOU&S.
The story of how this Is done is an
interesting one, but will be told as
briefly as possible.
We will consider, for the sake of
example, the case of a girl living in
a town one hundred miles from Detroit.
We will suppose her to be a
refined girl, of good parentage, but
with a dash of that fine American
independence which leads her to want
to help support herself. She feels
that she has the power of doing good
work when the kind of work given appeals
to her sense of refinement; she
is clever; she has common sense and
she can be depended upon. These
qualities have come to her naturally
and she says to herself that she has
the right to make proper use of them.
To some of these young women the
idea of work at. a telephone switchboard
must undoubtedly have come
some lime or other. They know little
nr nothing about, it, perhaps, but they
do know that the work is dignified.
They realize that the telephone girl,
as she makes desired connections, ofte
after the other, with deft fingers and
alert brain, is an all-important unit
in the throbbing business life of today.
The girl of whom we write thinks of
this among other tilings, and perhaps
she laments the fact that she lives so
far away from the Rcene of such attractions.
Yet she is the very girl
that the telephone company is willing
to take, teach and protect as she does
otted part of the great work.
Any fear that she may be lost In a
big strange city may be dismissed at
once. The Michigan State Telephone
Company has established a series of
boarding bouses near its various exchanges.
Each is in charge of a trusted
matron, who sees that bed and
board are provided for her at reasonable
living rates, and that she shall
never come into contact with undes
i r a b l e persons. As for the exchanges
themselves, they possess most of the
comforts of home and many which
our heroine could not obtain at home
at all.
Take, for example, the Main exchange;
the other eight exchanges
I have the same facilities, but we will
[ consider this one because it is the
largest, We will follow our out-oftown
girl as she enters the building.
Arrangements have been made ahead
of her arrival, and the various steps
I are already smoothed out for her.
| She goes first to the Operators
! School. There she fills out her ap-
' plication blank, if she has not already
I done so, and is introduced to the Tn-
J ftt.ruct.ress. The girl will probably
j start right away as a pupil in the
school.
[ So much time lost, she may think,
before beginning to earn money? Not
1 at all. The Company pays her a sal-
I ary right away! That salary begins
from the moment she enters the
j school, and continues, whether she
takes two weeks or four weeks, or
even six weeks, to learn her work. It
may be mentioned, incidentally, that
some of those who have turned out
j the best and most reliable operators
have been longest In the school.
Our out-of-town girl will then come
to learn that there is a beautiful restroom
provided for the operators,
where, for intervals of fifteen minutes,
her morning and afternoon shifts
are broken for that length of time
so that she may return refreshed to
the board. In this rest-room there Is
a player-piano, to which she may
dance when in the mood. There is a
branch of the Detroit Public Library,
put there so that she may draw freely
what book she wants simply by filling
out a card and it will be sent to her,
There are beautiful, refreshing bath
tubs, and above all, there is a popular
matron In charge of everything.
| Lunch? Dinner? Why, yes. The
girl does not have to go out of the
i building for that. A cafe and kitchen,
' maintained by the telephone company
at great expense, await her dainty
appetite. Food is sold there at
quite nominal prices — ridiculous
j prices, some people might say. Think
j of a piece of home-made pie for three
[ cents, a glass of pure milk for the
1 same queer price, and as for such a
meal as may be obtained for fifteen
cents, well, we doubt if the St. Regis
Hotel in New York could do better
for fifteen dollars!
But to get back to the work. Our
heroine, after she has been in the
school and been thoroughly grounded
in her work—the Company never puts
inexperienced girls at the board—is
now ready to be a real telephone girh
She may be a little nervous at first,
but she finds that the two experienced
glrlR on both sides of her will take
care of that. They help her out with
her calls, to say nothing of the Supervisor,
or ""Captain of Nine"" who walks
up and down behind nine girls and
sees that none of them gets into difficulties.
Now, the particular quality of telephone
work, and that which appeals
to many girls, is that they never come
into contact with the public. They do
not have to meet undesirable people.
Even over the telephone wires, when
an unreasonable or impatient sub-
PAID WH1L& LEARNING
scriber ""abuses"" her, she Is not compelled
to listen to any tirades. She
could not make t h » other connections
wanted by the public If she did. But
whether she's busy or not, the company
protects the telephone girl from
the abusive subscriber by directing
her to ""switch"" him to the Chief Operator's
desk, where he (or she) can
be handled at more leisure by employes
who will smooth out the difficulties
of v.hlch the subscriber may
complain.
The telephone girl does not have to
handle any soiled or danr»-ous equipment,
or to get in the way of any machinery.
She takes hold only of cords,
keys and plugs, which are necessarily
kept fiee from dust, or they would
deteriorate. And the same equipment
which protects the subscriber and the
switchboard tender from lightning
protects also the telephone girl.
The young woman of whom we are
writing will find that while, In the
telephone business as in other kinds,
there is no royal road to learning, yet
she has nevertheless but few difficulties
to encounter, and that the company
has made her way as smooth
as possible. This is not philanthropy
on the part of the Michigan State
Telephone Company. It makes no such
claim. Of course there's the natural
respect which the men at the head
of the organization feel for the girl
who earns her living—all decent men
possess that feeling—but this making
of things to be as attractive as possible
for the girls is one dictated by
business motives. The better the
girl, and the better she may be made
by the company itself, the better she
will do its work. The prosperity and
success of a telephone company depend
upon the class of service which
it furnishes, and this depends upon its
standard of employe.
And the first-class operator need not
always remain an operator. There
are innumerable opportunities for advancement
not only with the telephone
company, but. also with hotels
and great corporations which have
private branch exchanges.
The girl who lives at a distance
from Detroit may reflect upon these
things. She may address a letter to
the Operators School, Michigan State
Telephone Co., Detroit, and the reply
sent will give her abundant Information
on what to do if she wishes to
apply for a position. It will be worth
while.

Gambling in Insurance.
The Britisher's favorite gambling is
insurance gambling. He will take
out. a policy against, anything from the
death of the king to the loss of a
horse race by a thoroughbred. Marine
insurance gambling by those who
have no direct, interest In the safety
of a ship or its cargo grew into such
abuses that parliament has been compelled
to pass a drastic act to prevent
such gambling on marine accidents
and losses by those not otherwise concerned.—

Stage Rock*.
I recollect being annoyed by a scene
in grand opera representing the sea-
Rhoro. The rocks were most inartistioally
placed at regular intervals,
like the hoops on a croquet lawn. It
was a Balfe opera, in which the heroine
dies of thirst, and I was Informed
that as a certain prima donna
who sang this dry part could not get
through the great effort without refreshment,
she rolled over stage rocks,
behind which were placed pots of porter
at, frequent intervals, at. each of
which she had a pull as she turned
over in supposed anguish.—Strand.

Not only Jake L. Hamon, but J. F.
McMurray was named as a would-be
Briber in the investigation of the $30,-
000,000 Oklahoma Indian land deal before
t h e special congressional committee
a t Muskogee, Okla.
McMurray is t h e holder of t h e contracts
with tHe Choctaw and Chickasaw
Indians to promote which in congress
Senator Thomas P. Gore charged
he w a s offered a bribe.
D. C. McCurtain, a Choctaw Indian
and delegate to Washington for his
tribe, charged that McMurray, in 1906,
offered him a bribe of $25,000 t o withdraw
opposition to the old tribal Mc-
Murray contracts which subsequently
were disapproved by PreBident Roosevelt.
Green McCurtain, chief of 18,000
Choctaws and a venerable Indian of
62 years, with gray hair a n d brown
plump cheeks, then took the stand and
told t h e comm^liyr that one George
W. Scott, wh#tfrhe believed acted in
the intereajr^of McMurray, had offered
him one^ourth of the ""profits"" to be
realized from the land deal, provided
he induced the tribe to withdraw all
opposition t o t h e deal. T h e offer referred
to new contracts held by Mc-
Murray, which a r e the cause of the
present investigation.
The amount of the bribe mentioned
by D. C, McCurtain, who is a son of
the chief, is the same as that which
Senator Gore alleges was offered him
on May 6, last, by Jake Hamon to put
through the pending contracts which,
according to Senator Gore, would result
in the selling of 450,000 acres of
coal, asphalt and timber lands owned
by t h e Indians tp a New York syndij
cate on a basis which would give Mc-
Murray and his associates an ""attorney's
fee"" of 10 per cent, or $3,000,000,
SLUMP IN AUTO BUSINESS
Notwithstanding Boosting Efforts
| Bottom Seems to Have Dropped Out
of Manufacturers.
Stick to All Demands.
Efforts of Governor Harmon tr
bring ehout a settlement of tho Co
liimbus. 0., street r a r strike proved
unavailing. When the governor tolc
the strikers that the company wae
willing to settle if the questions o'
recognition of the union and the wear
ing of union buttons were waived
the unoin officers rejected t h e pro
posal.
New York.—Indications point to the
bottom having fallen out of the automobile
business. The manufacturers,
it. is reported in trade circles, are
making strenuous efforts to keep up
a show of continued prosperity, hut
it is also said that they a r e not selling
their product, but. are storing machines
throughout the country at their
various agencies to prevent the public
realizing the true conditions of the
market.
Several large concerns a r c laying
off m e n and giving all sorts of reasons
for so doing except t h e statement
that they are overstocked. Two
or three of the largest factories recently
closed entirely, ostensibly for
the purpose of taking inventory, but
the workmen were not given any
definite time at which to again report
for work, and it is not expected that
these factories will again be in operation
this year.
A well known automobile agent of
this city said yesterday that all car?
would undoubtedly be selling at from
25 p e r cent to 50 per cent, less than
present list, prices within the nex*
two or three months. He added:
"" T h e trouble with the automobile
business is that the farmers and people
of the smaller cities and town?
have not taken as kindly to t h e idea
as was anticipated. The farmers find
that the cost of keeping them in repair
and operation is more than the
cost, of keeping horses to perform the
same work, and while there was, for
a time, a tendency among the farmers
to invest in the machines, the demand
for cars from this class of buyers has
practically stopped, and 1 venture to
say we will not again sell to the farmers
to any extent until pxices are
materially reduced.""

T H E BEST OF ITS K I N D
In always ndvertiafHi, in fact it only pays
to advertise good things. When you seo
an article advertised in this pap*r year
after year you can be absolutely certain
that there is merit to It because the continued
sale of any article depends upon
merit and to keep on advertising one
must keep on neUing. AH good things
have Imitators, but Imitations are not advertised.
They have no reputation to sustain,
they never expect to have any permanent
sale and your dealer would never
sell them if he stridied your Interests.
Sixteen years apo Allen's Foot-Ease, the
antiseptic Powder for the feet, was first
sold, and through newspaper advertising
and through people telling each other
what a pood thing- It was for tired and
aehlnjf feet It has now a permanent sal \
and nearly 2>X) so-called foot powders
have been put on the market with the
hope of profiting t.y the reputation which
has been built up for Allen's Foot-Kase.

Ttw 101(11 Hoofed Hog.
There are jwiue solid hoofed hogi in
the world, but tuey are few and far
between. Darwin has a great deal to
say about uuch pigs In his ""Origin of
Species,"" aa there were only three In
England at the time he wrote this
book. The aolid hoofed hog ia not a
freak of nature, us many suppose, but
a genuine ease of reversion to a primitive
or ancestral type. It seems that,
unlike the prehistoric ancestor of the
modern horse, which has four toes or
hoofs, the old clotherium, from which
animal all members of the swine family
ure descended, had a solid hoof,
and lu the course of ages, as the old
parent form died out and the modern
wild boar, domestic hog, peccary, etc.,
were evolved this solid hoof became
through what Darwin calls ""adaptation""
and ""natural selection"" divided
op into two parts, so that all modern
hogs are cloven hoofed. Occasionally,
however, u hog Is born with the old
original solid hoof of the primitive hog
ancestor, thus demonstrating the tendency
in ull animals to revert now aud
then to the parent form.

Mr. Way is delighted with

spot to spend the heated season. We
have always been of the opinion that
this was an ideal spot and we have but
one fault to find with it and that is the
season is too short—we have too much
winter.

Deputy Superintendent of Public
Instruction Keeier of Lansing says
that inquiries regarding the tuition
law are pouring m trom all parts of
the state. Many parents who desired
to send their children to some high
school or institution of the district in
which they reside, failed to rile notice
with the board of education prior to
the fourth Monday in June. This
makes it impossible for them to participate
in the fund sent aside for tuition
purposes and has caused considerable
confusion.

Conquering Mr. Cushway
By M. J. Phillips
Copjriifbt. *wia bf A i w c i m d U u r t f r K M *
Old Cushway, of the chemicul truat,
aputttsred and roapecta.
You haven't a cent In the
world!""
""I'm getting 13.000 a year, air.""
""As my secretary. I've made you,
hang you! Took you out of the
street—""
""Out of college, Blr,"" corrected the
young man, calmly.
""Same thing! Took you out of
poverty and starvation and made a
man—tried to make a man,"" he corrected
himself hastily, ""out of you.
Where'd you be If I turned you out
tomorrow?""
Young Hammond had borne bira-
Belf admirably during the tirade, but
now a slight flush rose to the roots
of his hair. ""Oh, I don't kuow,"" he
retorted. ""1 don't think J. Allison
Perkins, of the Raw Drugs corporation,
would see me starve!""
""What's that?"" Cushway thrust out
a stubby underlip, and scowled more
blackly than ever. ""Throw Raw
Drugs in my face, eh? Yes, that's
true; Perkins would pay well for my
secrets! He'd rob my safe, If he
thought he could get away with It. So
you're going to him, you ungrateful—""
""Unless you discharge me, sir.""
""Humph!"" Mr. Cushway suddenly
subsided Into his everyday voice and
manner. ""Now let's understand one
another, Hammond. I've got to be
away for a day or so. There's a conference
on. For certain reasons not
unconnected with your threat about
Perkins, I don't want you with me.
Will you promise not to see or communicate
with my daughter till 1 get
back?""
""No. sir, I will not!""
The older man nodded. ""I thought
you wouldn't Very well; and now you
listen. If you try to get into my house,
li waa lour o'clock of a bitter winter's
day. The mercury registered
tero. An arctic wind drove lancea ol
snow, fine and atlnglng aa aand, be
fore It Detectives Mpouey and Mc
Gill, of the Central atation, with overcoat
collars turned up, stood guard on
the Cuabway home with what patience
they could muster; Mooney watched
the front of the house; McGlll tramped
through a foot of snow in the alley In
the rear.
Both cureed with great fluency and
persistence, anathematizing Cuahway,
Hammond and the Rev. Mr. Monckton
impartially. Except for a few hours'
respite during the previous night they
had been on watch constantly for
more than thirty hours.
Neither Hammond nor Monckton
had attempted to visit the Cushway
home: nor, In fact, had anyone elBe.
McGlll found It livelier in the alley,
especially the second day. Delivery
wagons plowed their way through the
drifts. An olive-skinned peddler, with
a huge pack of fabrics which he earnestly—
and untruthfully declared to
havo been smuggled from Persia, went
from back door to back door, tempting
the maids with his gaudy display.
The gasman was the first to enter
Cushway's by way of the alley that
afternoon. He was followed presently
by a plumber with his kit of tools, a
smudge of grease and four days'
growth of beard adorning his face. A
broad-shouldered grocer's boy, muffled
to the eyet puffed In with a basket.
The plumber, as usual, had forgotten
Important tools and went back to his
shop for them. He borrowed a match
from McGlll on his way out.
Returning presently, he paused for
a few moments to chat with the watcher.
Hungry for human companionship,
McGlll guardedly explained his vigil.
AIBO he ventured the assertion that
""old man Cushway must have a pull
like a four-horse team or the chief
wouldn't be standing for such monkey
business as this.""
Shortly after four o'clock Cushway's
carriage drew up to the house. He
grinned with satisfaction at sight of
the watchers, for their presence
proved Hammond had not ventured to
call. On being dismissed with a generous
tip they left.
The man Bervant took Cushway's
bag, and the magnate walked Bprlnglly
up the steps. At the door of the library
he stopped, paralyzed; for there,
awaiting his coming, were his placid

""How did you two get In here?"" de
manded Cushway.
""Walked in. sir; Mr, Monckton and

an hour. I don't propose to ; lege ""and w e thought we could disguise

""I know It."" Mr. Cuahway nodded
again. ""But I guess if I said you had
the pollce'd lock you up, wouldn't
they?"" He waited for an answer, but
none was forthcoming. Hammond
knew they would.
""I'll fix It so they won't, touch you
as long aa you keep away,"" he continued.
""I'll say my chain of evidence
Isn't, quite completed. But I'll toll the
chief that if Monckton or you goes to
the houBe, or you meet. Ethel anywhere.
It's a Rlgnal I'm ready. . And
they'll nab you. So you see It's all up
to you. Agree to an armistice till 1
get back and you won't be molested.
Otherwise—"" he waved a plump, pink
hand negligently and continued: ""Of
course if they do get you I'll see that
you're released!""
'Thanks,"" rejoined the secretary,
ironically. ""Well,"" he said, ungraciously,
at last, ""supposing 1 agree to
this armistice?""
""Um—well, I'll make no promises.
But we'll see.""
The secretary laughed scornfully
""That means you'd pack Ethel off to
Europe for a year!""
Hammond took one or two agitated
turns across the luxurious private of
flee. Then he stopped before the com-
His employer fixed him with a hostile
eye. ""I can't order you o'ut,"" he
grumbled, ""for I've just gotten control
of Perkins' company and I need you
worse than ever."" His glance traveled
over the expectant group. ""Well,"" he
cried, irascibly, ""what's the use of sitting
around staring like lunatics? Go
ahead and get married, hang it!""
His daughter threw herself In his
arms. ""Daddy, you're an old darling!""
she cried, rapturously. ""But,.perhaps,
we'd better wait a week or so. Really,
I haven't a thing to wear!""
Navy1* Beit Hitter.
The battleship Idaho is to enjoy for
a year the coveted honor of being the
best, hitter in the American navy. A
comparison of the shooting performnnee
of the battleships this year wai»

The Idaho made a score
of 4R.121. The South Carolina gets second
place with 42.585, and the Wisconsin
third, with 40,478.
The battleships are competing for a
trophy, their rank depending not only
on the hits of the guns, but on their
work with mines and torpedoes. While
the target practise has been concluded
by the battleships, only a few have
done the required mining. Of these
the Wisconsin stands at the head of

SMART SUMMER GIRL NOW RESEMBLES

Extreme Tightness of the Moat Wildly
Freakish Modei Qive the Wearers
a Decidedly Ridiculous
Appearance.
Very gradually, but with the utmost
persistence, the silhouette of faahlon
has entirely changed since the aeason
began. The smart summer girl now
presents lines which are often likened
to thoae of a tube, a folded umbrella
or a pillow ease tied at t h e bottom.
The similes are not extravagant, for
the chief phase of the dally narrowing
skirts Is a closeness at the bottom.
Sometimes the cut achieves this,
but very frequently It is produced by
a hobbling band put at the lower portion
of a skirt, which is fulled into It
and gathered aa well into the belt. In

DETAILS MUST BE WATCHED
Little Things Which Make Great Difference
in the Way a Dress, Hat,
or Wrap Looks.
In dress, as In other things, the
importance of the attention to little
things la essential. If this be given,
the big effect will take care of -Itself.
A gown, hat. or wrap can be raised
from a plane of mediocrity to that of
distinction by the Introduction"" of
little details of ornamentation that
are decidedly successful in the at,-
atinment of that end, yet are within
the reach o* most fingers.
A hat that in itself is the duplicate
of hundreds of others can be treated
to a peculiar binding or an unusual
adjustment of ornaments. The binding,
by the way, offers wide field for
differentiation from the usual flat
velvet facing. Fringe in silken or
linen forms Is distinctive, If used as
an edging for the turned-down rim.
Silk or velvet can be puffed or
shirred over the edge, while a rose
quilling Is the newest trimming for
that part of the hat.
in dress the details are extremely
important. ""What is the use of
bothering about these little things?""
many home dressmakers proteRt. It
in just this attention to the details
that, the French havo so horoughly
mastered that stamp a model as good
or indifferent.

Clever Joke of Kind King.
King Edward's good nature was Illustrated
the other night by a London
correspondent at the Press club in
New York.
""The king,"" said the correspondent,
""was visiting Rufford Abbey, and one
morning, In company with his host,
Lord Arthur Savlle, he took a walk
over the preserves.
""Suddenly Lord Arthur, a big burly
man, rushed forward and seized a
shabby fellow with a dead pheasant
protruding from the breast of his coat.
"" 'Sir,' said Lord Arthur to the king,
'this fellow is a bad egg. This is the
second time I've caught him poaching.'
""But the klng'B handsome face
beamed, and he laughed his gay and
tolerant laugh.
"" 'Oh, let him go,' he said. 'If he
really were a bad egg, you know, he
wouldn't poach.' ""
He Knew the Kind.
Little Edward, aged four, was ah
only child. He waB anxious for a
baby sister, and was talking of It one
day with a friend of the family In
the friend's family was a baby girl of
one year. The lady said, ""Edward,
you may have my baby; Bhe is pretty
and sweet.""
""Oh,"" said Edward, ""I don't want an
old baby. I want a bran new one wif

FACTORS FOR ROAD BUILDER
Climate la Important Matter t » Con

Hava Oood Crown.
i .
(By W. U ePOON.)
The climate la a factor of Importance
for t h e road builder to consider.
In the eastern sections, where t h e soil
Is plastic, t h e rains are most abundant
while In tho western sand hllla t h e
climate Is semi-arid and quite strong
south winds prevail. These conditions
Introduce an important matter for consideration.
Sand roads a r e best when
wet, and clay roads when dry, but climatic
conditions operate adversely
and must be taken into consideration
seriously. The rains make the eastern
roads muddy, while dry weather
makes of the western roads deep shifting
sand. T h e suggestion offered by
this natural condition Is to add sand
to t h e eastern clays and clay to t h e
west era sands in order to bring about,
An Excellent Roadway.
between t h e soil and the climate, t h e
balance necessary for t h e betterment
of t h e roads. Additional encouragement
is afforded by t h e natural distribution
of t h e material, which In most
casee is abundantly provided for all
needs.
In Jthe eastern portion, where rains
are abundant, the question of drainage
Is very Important, and, moreover,
a greater percentage of sand
(05 to 85 per c e n t ) must be used,
while In the west, In the semi-arid
sandhill section, the reverse proportion
is not only permissible but often
necessary. In the east the road must
meet, as Its supreme test, continued
wet weather, while in the west continued
drought furnishes a maximum
strain on t h e binding pow-«•-

Our Trip to Georgia.
Many of our readers had known
for tome time that we had intended
making a trip through the
south the coming winter to see
what the southern climate would
do for u& Finding that it would
be impossible for us to leave during
the wiuter season and a good
opportunity offered us to go to
Georgia with E. C. Glenn, of the Glenbrook
Stock Farm, during July. \ye de""
cided to make the trip aud see what the
climate was like during the Hummer or
heated season.
We left Pinoknev Tuesday morning,
July 5, going to Detroit and thence via
Cincinuati. There was nothing of interest
on this part of the trip only that we noted
when -.bout half way to Cinciunati that
there had been much rain, even enough to
drown out corn and hinder harvest. This
condition we found all the remainder of
our way to Atlanta. The trip through
Keutuokey aud Tennesee was made during
the night so we were deprived of a view
of this section of the country. We could
tell by the rattle of the train, however,
that we were passing thru a mountainous
section and cuts thru rocks, and srerj
once in a while the porter would come
thru and close all windows while . passing
thru an exceptionally long tunnel. Even
then the smoke wonid fill the oar. We
learned later that we passed' thru twentyseven
of*them.
We noted as soon as daylight that there
was a change in the lay of the land from
the level country of northern Ohio and
southern Michigan to the hills and mountains
of Tennesee and Georgia.
The roads instead of following sections
went in all directions up tbru the valleys,
any way to reach the email farms located
on the level and hill ides that were not too
steep to work. The houses were mostly
very small aud everyone had its atone and
mud chimney outside and of course the
fireplace in tbe main room. Most cf the
cooking is done out of doors and we could
Bee the process going on in many places.
In stormy weather the kettle is taken into
the house and the fireplace used.
The crops mostly raised were corn, potatoes,
hemp, some tobacco and considerated)

hoeing of the crops is done a great deaV
by the women altho sometimes whole families
were seen working in the fields—that .
1«, all who were old enough.
We pasted thrju some cotton mill towns
one of which, Lindale, attracted our attention.
There was a big mill for the
working of the cotton and the homes of ,
the workers were all aKke and everything*
—mill and all—painted white. Each had •
a small garden and the place presented a ""
very pretty appearance. There were ove r
100 of these houses, so it was quite a,town* ,
Of course at this season of the year these
mills are not working, so it was quiet. We
passed thru two or three such plaovs.
We passed thru Chattauoga at about 8
a. m. Wednesday. Saw Lookout Mt.. ip
the distance but did not take time to stoi
off. Leaving there we proceeded without
change of cars to Atlanta, arriving about
two hours late owing to a bad working engine.
We missed our first train for Cornelia
and it gave us time for dinner at A t
lanta and to send a few poet cards.
Leaving Atlanta at about 3 p. m., we
arrived at Cornelia at about 6, making
about 78 miles in a little over two hours,
going up the mountain side and dowu the
vales to get a start up another mountain.
On arriving at Cornelia we were met by C.
L. Coffin, who had gone ahead a couple of
weeks to make arrangements for our comiog.
Our team was in waiting and we
made np our minds to start for the 22
mile drive thru the mountains to our camping
place which was a shack on tue Colorado
Land Co.'s property of which Mr.
Coffin is manager.
We decided to have supper before start- £
ing and went to the popular Hotel Grant f
whose proprietor, J~ C Rudisill, made'
us very welcome. This hotel is one of the
best iu the northeastern part ot Georgia
and in in the land of red apples, sweet
cherries, blushing peaches, and Bweet juicy
grapes. It is new, rooms large, beds neat
and clean, a line supply of pure Mountain
water, hot aud cold baths, and the table is
at all times abundantly supplied with the
best.

the center line of the drain and on the left bank going up Btream from the beginning to
stake 68 and on the right bank from stake No. 69 to stake No. 84.
The right of way for the construction of this drain shall consist of a strip of land
gixly feet wide to be taken thirty feet on each side of the center line. All angles shall
be turned on an easy curve and all excavations are to be left not less than 4 feet fr im
the edge of the drain with sufficient openings so as not to obstruct the drainage of the
adjacent land. The grade is 6-11 per cent from stake 0 to Btake 13; o-44 per cent from
st. 13 to st. 31; 35-66 per cent from st. 31 to st. 36; 5-44 per cent from st. 36 to st. 54;

COOLING A 8 EASY A3 H E A T I N Q
Now, when one comes to think of It,
there la difficulty In understanding
why humanity huts always realized the
need of mitigating the severity of cli
mate that takes the form of cold, but
for the moat part btfll uttumeB the Impossibility
of doing anything to temper
heat, from which we suffer al
most UH much, Bays New York Times.
At le6a expense than that by which
houses are warmed In winter they can
be cooled In summer, and, while the
winter heating, thanks to our strange
refusal to learn the art of ventilation.
Involves the creation of conditions Injurious
to health, those which summer
cooling would establish would
probably be In every way beneficial to
us. At any rate, the thing Is perfectly
practicable. Of course, If
adopted, it would add to the cost of
living, but It would also Increase the
general stock of available energy,
which would mean an increase of
earning power to a more than compensating
degree. Not much of a refrigeration
plant would be required to
bring the air of a bedroom to a temperature
In which sleep would be refreshing,
Instead of impossible or exhausting,
and the wonder is that the
rich and the well-to-do, at least, do not
generally, instead of hardly at ail,
utilize a benefit which science is ready
to give them for much less money than
they pay for a thousand other smaller
luxuries and conveniences.
The first passenger airship to be
operated for regular transportation
purposes has been put in commission
in Germany. It is a Zeppelin dirigible
and will run over a course that
will include Frledrichshafen, Stuttgart,
Mannheim, Cologne and Dusseldorf.
At first Count Zeppelin himself,
inventor of the machine which
bears his name, will be at the helm.
The airship has capacity for twenty
passengers, for whom accommodations
as luxurious as those of a Pullman
palace car have been provided.
As the enterprise is backed by a shipping
company of undoubted standing
there seems to be ample faith in the
success of the enterprise and belief
that aerial navigation has come to
stay.
Finland, in so far as the autonomy
enjoyed heretofore \s concerned, had
practically been wiped off the map,
the Douma first and the Council of
the Empire finally having enacted the
law which turns over the administration
of Finnish affairs to representatives
of the czar. Finland was formerly
a grand duchy, and, though under
Russian control, had a large measure
of self-government. The Finns
are a sturdy, self-reliant and intelligent
people and have made great
progress In education and otherwise.
But the policy of Russia is to central
ize control at St. Petersburg, and the
disposition of Finland is the latest
exemplification of the existing tendency.
When farmers turn to ""bulling""
wheat the speculators in the grain
exchanges hardly know where they
are a t There Beems to be something
like a combined effort on the part of
the big wheat-growers of the northwest
to keep up prices, says Milwaukee
Evening Wisconsin. Delegations
by tralnloads are going to some of the
large trading-centers like St. Paul and
dealing In heavy lots. Some of these
farmers a r e rated as millionaires, having
made fortunes in grain growing,
and they also seem to understand the
bull and bear business. At least the
professional speculators in the ""wheat
pit"" find the tillers of the soil foemen
worthy of their steel.

SOLOIER8 R E T U R N FROM SHORT
AND PLEASANT STAY A T DURAND,""
ENJOYED VACATION.
SHERIFF W A T S O N GETS 37 M E N
IN T H E COUNTY T o ACT
AS HIS D E P U T I E S .
Citizens of Durand Refused to Act as
Deputies Under Sheriff
Watson.
Following their Idle sojourn at Durand,
the 250 members of the third
battalion of the Second infantry,
Michigan National Guard, returned to
Detroit shortly after 7 o'clock Saturuay
night. T h e special train in which
they rode w a s scheduled to leave Durand
at '1:30 o'clock In the afternoon,
but some delay was encountered. The
soldiers did not leave the village until
after 4 o'clock.
The Grand Rapids troops weie sent
home Suuday afternoon.
It was a smiling, happy bunch of
men who appeared as though they
had just returned from a few days'
vacation iu the country.
Late Saturday afternoon Sheriff
John Watson arrived in Durand with
the information that he had received
promise from 37 men about the county
that they would serve as deputies
until the strike is settled or the situation
becomes such that no further
trouble is to be expected in the minds
of the officials in charge of the local
protection.
""It was very gratifying to mo,"" said
the sheriff, ""to have many of the big
taxpayers about the county say that 1
was in the right, and that they were
with me. I did not get as many actual
deputies as I wanted, but feel
nafe in making the attempt to handle
the situation without further need oi
the troops.""
At the meeting of the citizens' com
mittee it was decided that if they
would be accepted by the sheriff, a
hundred men or more would be offered
to serve as deputies, but not directly
under the- sheriff's orders. It
was said by the members of the com
mittre that they as citizens were
afraid tiiat the sheriff could not be
trusted and might incite a riot or
other violent manifestations as soon
as the troops were withdrawn. There
did not seem to be any opposition tc
doing police duty except under tht
sheriff, and so it was determined that
the president of the village, Samuel
(\ Paiehell. shall have charge. The
understanding is that these men arc
to serve a.--¾ deputies and do whatever
Is wanted by the sheriff, but the orders
for their actions must come
through the president. This was evidently
taken as the only method the
men could be secured.
The statement of the citizens' com
mittee was shown to the sheriff and
he was asked if he had any reply tc
make.
""Absolutely none,"" he said. ""I have
done what I thought was my duty and
I do not. believe that I was or am
mistaken. There is nothing about
my actions that I am ashamed of in
any respect. I did not refuse any
men that were brought to me to be
sworn in as my deputies or say that
1 had enough.""
This was contradicted by several
citizens, including the president of
the village.
In actual strike circles things re
main very quiet, except for the won
der that was expressed over the ar
rival of special officers of the Grand
Trunk. These number about 40, and
no one at this point knows why they
came, A few at a time, they arrived
from Detroit, Chicago, St, Louis and
St. PauJ. They have several speeia
cars and evidently came to stay. Th<
men are In charge of C. H. Fuller, of
Detroit, a special detective of the rail
road, who placed the men on duty as
soon as they arrived. The officers
wore special police badges on which
are the letters ""P. O.""
A MODEL PRISON.
Marquette Classed Am?ng Five Beat
Prisons in World.
Capt. Alausou Himeis, who h a s been
in Marquette for Several days InMhe
interests of the Groller society of
London, visited the Marquette prison.
Capt. Hlmes swved in t h e British
army during the Boer war aud was
attached to the secret service. Later
he was made provost marshal of Cape
Town. He has traveled all over t h e
world and has made a special study
of criminology, having made it a practice
to visit prisons wherever possible
in the course of his travels. H e
Ls well versed in all phases of this
subject, which he considers the fundamental
problem of society.
Classed Among Five Best.
""The Marquette prison is one of
the bejst conducted and most progressive
penitentiaries I have ever vialted,""
said Capt. Himea at the conclusion
of his inspection of the institution.
""The warden has recognized
the finding of modern thought and
science that criminality is a disease
and that the function of a prison
should be to cure rather than to
punish. From this humanitarian view
point, the Marquette prison should be
classed with four others in the world
—the prison at Elmira, N. Y., the
prison at Milan, Italy, the prison at
La Plata, Argentina, aud the prison
at Milbank, England. I know of no
other penal institutions that are being
conducted as fully along t h e lines
of modern science as these five.""
Blind Pilgrims Made To See.
A procession of 2,000 pilgrims,
whose homes are scattered from
ocean to ocean, among them some
who came on crutches, in wheelchairs
and by train, marked the close Tuesday
night of the feast of Ste. Anne,
which has been in progress for nine
days at Ste. Anne's church. Chicago.
Simultaneously occurred the procession
of lighted candles and the end of
the Noveiia at St. Anne, III. Five
thousand marched in the procession.
Many wonderful cures are repoited.
The lame and the halt say they were
made to walk; the paralyzed claim
they were restored and the blind assert
they were made to see.
Eighteen cures were announced at
Ste. Anne's, Chicago.
Re'ics of Ste. Anne in the two American
shrines were secured from t h e
shrine of Ste. Anne l)e Beaupre, Canada.
The pilgrimages are held annually
and attract afflicted persons
from nearly every state in the union.
Try to Blow Up New York Police.
The New York police are searching
for a band of Italians who are credited
with having made an attempt
Tuesday night to blow up the Mercer
street police station. Four heavy
cartridges or bombs containing enough
powder to blow up the building and
kill the liO men who were within at
the time, were discovered before any
damage was done. One was on tho
step in front of the door, and the
others in an adjacent hallway. Three
men under arrest on suspicion deny
knowledge of the affair.
A search of the haUway where they
had been concealed revealed three
more of the bomb-like contrivances,
but the fuses had not been lighted.
An examination of the bombs
showed that they contained powder.
According to the experts of the bureau
of combustibles they were crudely

HAPPENINGS
Battle Creek.—For an hour the jefctire
water frost on Park Beidler, Lake
Goguac, was in danger of destruction
by fire, and only the action of Acting
Mayor S. A. H o w w in allowing engine*
companies No. 1 and No. 4 to
go outside the city limits saved a
clean sweep. Four summer residences,
occupied by the families of
W. C. Harper. A. B. Somerville, Frank
Walker and Howard Baker, were destroyed
with a loss of $8,000, and a
fifth, occupied by Charles Grimes, was
badly damaged. Two private Industries,
the Taylor BroB."" Candy company
and the Battle Creek Table company
sent private fire companies and
extinguishers to the scene, while resorters
formed a bucket brigade. In
this way about fifty summer homes
were saved. A gasoline stove in the
Somerville cottage started the fire,
the flames spreading rapidly in the absence
of fire protection.
OWOHKO.—William Vail, owner of a
butcher shop in Laiugsburg, is under
11,000 bonds to appear In the September
term of the circuit court to answer
to a charge of arson, having waived
examination. Coming from Bath several
months ago, Vail opened a market
and had no opposition until the firm
of Seeley & Stevens embarked in
business ten days ago. Vail 1B said to
have threatened to put his competitors
out of business. Vail claims to have
been In Bath at the time of the fire
and denies knowledge of it. A pile
of straw had been placed in one corner
of the damaged building and ignited
and a plain trail of straw led from
the market to a barn In t h e rear of
the Lainsburg hotel, where Vail had
Btabled his team.
Boyne City.—Several boxes of dynamite
cartridges in a burning building
caused considerable excitement, but
after a brief struggle the blaze was
put out. It was found some of the
cartridges had been destroyed by the
fire. As the building is in the heart
of the city, the damage might have
been serious.
Eaton Rapids.—Island City company,
No. 17, U. R. K. of P., the
largest in the state, drilling morning
and evening preparatory to entering
the competitive drill at the National
encampment of that order at Milwaukee
next week.
Owosso.—It has Just become known
that Lena Stitchler, a pretty school
girl of fifteen, and Lee Ordway, eighteen,
of Shaftsburg, crossed the border
to Windsor Ont., last week, and
were married.
Plymouth.—Discouraged over his
loss of positions on account of intemperate
habits, Charles Trombley swallowed
a quantity of laudanum. A
stomach pump put him out of danger.
Holland.—Sheriff Andre has served
notice upon the proprietors of the
Macatawa bay resorts that all slot machines
and other gambling devices
will have to be abolished. Numerous
complaints have been made by the
cottage owners that several of these
machines are In operation and unless
the managers resolve to throw them
out voluntarily, arrests will follow.
The township officials are carefully
watching the resorts as to Sunday
closing of all objectionable amusements
and unlesB the proprietors
strictly observe the board's edict, steps
will be immediately taken to enforce
the state blue laws and make the lid
air tight.
Lapeer.—Frank and Joe Bertolineo,
the two Italians who are being held
here for trial as part of the gang
who so brutally assaulted and robbed
Lemuel Kingsbury and wife Saturday
night, were brought into Justice
Wright's court. Neither of them speak
or understand English. Nick Dionise,
a frtiit store proprietor here, was
called in to act as interpreter. They
asked for Attorney Joseph T. Schlappacaase
and Detective Palmo of Detroit
to be present July 30 at their
examination. Bail was fixed at $2,000
each, which was not furnished.
Rochester. — The village board,
spurred on by the insistent requests
of pedestrians, automobile owners and
others, have caused to be passed an
ordinance decreeing 'that in the future
all rigs, automobiles, bicycles and
other conveyances, must be operated
on the right hand side of the thoroughfare.
The Detroit United railway
has also been ordered by the drafting
of another ordinance to operate their
cars at a Hpeed not to exceed eight
mfVfl per hour.
(Grand Rapids.—Attempting tn catch
a ride on a Pere Marquette freight
train in the Wyoming yards, John Qalfen
misBed his hold on the ladder of
a box car and slipped under the
wheels, sustaining Injuries which
proved fatal an hour later. Oalfen,
whoso homp was in St. Louis, Mo.,
was horribly cut and mangled. Both
lejrs wrre crushed off.
Charlotte.—Five head of cattle from
the Locke dairy herd, of this city,
were killed by order of the Rtato sanlsary
hoard. The animals were afflicted
with tuberculosis.

CHAPTER II.
A Torn Telegram.
I lunched alone at the Gilmore
house, and went back to the city at
qnce. The aun had lifted the mists,
and a fresh summer wind had cleared
away the Bmoke pall. The boulevard
was full of c a r s flying countryward
for the Saturday half-holiday, toward
golf and tennis, green fields and babbling
girls. I gritted my teeth and
thought of McKnight at Richmond.
And then, for the first time, I associated
John Gilmore's granddaughter
with the ""West"" that McKnight had
irritably flung at me.
I still carried my traveling bag, for
MeKnight's vision at the window of
the empty house had not been without
effect. I did not transfer the note9 to
my pocket, and, if I had, it would
not have altered the situation later.
Only the other day McKnight put
this very thing up to me.
""I warned you,"" he reminded me.
""I told you there were queer things
coming, and to be on your guard. You
ought to have taken your revolver.""
""It would have been of exactly as
much use as a bucket of Bnow^ in—
Africa,"" I retorted. ""If I had never
closed my eyes, or if I had kept my
finger on the trigger of a six-shooter
(which Is novelesque for revolver),
the result would have been the same.
And the next time you want a little
excitement with every variety of thrill
thrown In, I can put you by way of it.
You begin by getting the wrong berth
in a Pullman car, and end—""
""Oh, I know how it ends,"" he finished
shortly. ""Don't you suppose the
whole thing's written on my spinal
marrow?""
nut I am wandering again. That is
the difficulty with the unprofessional
etory-teller: He yaws back and forth
and r a n t keep in the wind; he drops
his characters overboard when he
hasn't any further use for them and
drownB them; he forgets the coffee
pot and the frying pan and all the
other small essentials, and, if he carries
a love affair, he mutters a fervent
""Allah be praised"" when he
lands them, drenched with adventures,
at the matrimonial dock at the end of
the final chapter.
I put in a thoroughly unsatisfactory
afternoon. Time dragged eternally. I
dropped into a summer vaudeville, and
bought some ties at a haberdasher's.
1 was bored but unexpectant; 1 had
no premonition of what was to come.
Nothing unusual had ever happened
to me; friends of mine had sometimes
sailed the high seas of adventure
or skirted the coasts of chance,
but all of the shipwrecks had occurred
after a woman passenger had been
taken on. ""Ergo,"" I had always said
""no women!"" I repeated it to myself
that evening almost savagely,
when I found my thoughts straying
back to the picture of John Gilmore's
granddaughter. I even argued as I
ate my solitary dinner at a downtown
restaurant.
""Haven't you troubles enough,"" I
reflected, ""without looking for more?
Hasn't Bad News gone lame, with a
matinee race booked for next week?
Otherwise aren't you comfortable?
Isn't your house in order? Do you
want to sell a pony in order to have
the library done over in mission or
the drawing room in gold? Do you
want somebody to count the empty
cigarette boxes lying around every
morning?""
Lay it to the long idle afternoon, to
the new environment, to anything yov
like, but I began to think that perhaps
I did. I was confoundedly lonely.
For the first time in my life its
even course began to waver. The
needle registered warning marks on
the matrimonial jsetsmograph, lines
vague enough, but lines.
My alligator bag lay at my feet,
•Mil locked. While I waited for my
fee I leaned back and surveyed the
aple incuriously. There were the
usual couples intent on each other;
my new state of m;nd made me regard
them with tolerance. But at the
nezt table, where a maa and woman
dined together, a different atmosphere
prevailed. My attention was flrat
caught by the woman's race. She bad
been speaking earnestly across t h e
table, her profile turned to me.. I had
noticed casually her earnest manner,
her somber clothes, and the great
mass of odd, bronze-colored hair on
her neck. But suddenly she glanced
toward me and the utter ""hopelessness
—almost tragedy—of her expression
struck me with a shock. She half
closed her eyes and drew a long
breath, then she turned again to the
man across the table.
Neither one was eating. He set low
in his chair, his chin on his chest,
ugly folds of thick flesh protruding
over his collar. He was probably 50,
bald, grotesque, sullen, and yet not
without a suggestion or power. But he
had been drinking; as 1 looked, he
raised an unsteady hand and summoned
a waiter with a wine list.
The young woman bent across the
table and spoke again quickly. She
had unconsciously: raised her voice.
Not beautiful, In her earnestness and
stress she rather Interested me. I
had an Idle Inclination to advise the
waiter to remove the bottled temptation
from the table. I wonder what
would have happened If I had? Supr
o s e Harrington had not been intoxicated
when he entered the Pullman
car Ontario that night!
For they were about to make a Journey,
I gathered, and the young woman
wished to go alone. I drank three
cups of coffee, which accounted for
my wakefulness later, and shamelessly
watched the tableau before me. The
woman's protest evidently went for
nothing; across the table the man
grunted monosyllabic replies and grew
more and more lowering and sullen.
Once, during a brief unexpected pianissimo
in the mus'ic, her voice came
to me sharply:
""If I could only see him In t i m e ! ""
she was saying. ""Oh, it's terrible!""
In spite of my interest I would have
forgotten the whole incident at once,
erased it from my mind as one does
the inessentials and clutterings of
memory, had I not met them again,
later that evening, in the Pennsylvania
station. The situation between them
had not visibly altered: The same
dogged determination showed in the
man's face, but the young woman—
daughter or wife? I wondered—had
drawn down her veil and I could only
suspect what white misery lay beneath.
I bought my berth after waiting In
a line of some eight or ten people.
When, step by step, I had almost
reached the window, a tall woman
whom I had not noticed before spoke
to me from my elbow. She had a
ticket and money in her hand.
""Will you try to get me a lower
when you buy yours?"" she asked. ""I
have traveled for three nights in uppers.""
I consented, of course; beyond that
I hardly noticed the woman. I had
a vague impression of height and a
certain amount of stateliness, but the
crowd was pushing behind me, and
some one was standing on my foot.
""Which Will You Have, Lowsr Ten or
Eleven?""
I got two lowers easily, and, turning
with the change and berths, held out
the tickets.
""Which will you have?"" I asked.
""Lower 11 or lower 10?""
""It makes no difference,"" she said.
""Thank you very much indeed.""
At random I gave her lower 11, and
called a porter to help her with her
luggage. I followed them leisurely to
the train shed, and ten minutes more
saw us under way.
I looked into my car, but it. presented
the peculiarly unattractive appearance
common to sleepers. The berths
were made up; the center aisle was a
path between walla of dingy, breexerepelling
curtains, while the two seats
at each end of the car were piled high
with suit cases and umbrellas. The
perspiring porter was trying to be in
six places at once; somebody has said
that Pullman porters are black so
tliey won't show the dirt, but they
certainly show the heat.
Nine-fifteen was an outrageous hour
to go to bed, especially since I sleep
little or not at all on the train, so I
made my way to the smoker and
passed the time until nearly 11 with
cigarettes and a magazine.
The car was very c*ose. It was a
warm night, and before turning In I
stood a short time-In the vestibule.
The train had been stopping at frequent
Intervals, and, finding the brakeman
there, I asked the trouble.
It seemed that there was a hot-box
on the next car, and that not only
v e r e we late, but we were delaying
the second section, just behind. I was
beginning to feel pleasantly drowsy,
and the air was growing cooler as we
got Into the mountains. I said goodnight
to the brakeman and went back
to my berth. To my surprise, lower
ten was already occupied—a suit case
projected from beneath, a pair of shoes
stood on the floor, and from behind
the curtains came the heavy, unmistakable
breathing of deep sleep. I
hunted out the porter and together
we investigated.
""Are you asleep, •sir?"" asked the
porter, leaning over deferentially. No
answer forthcoming, he opened the
curtains and looked In. Ye*, the Intruder
was asleep—very much asleep
—and an overwhelming odor of
whisky proclaimed that he would
probably remain asleep until morning.
I was irritated. The car was full,
and I was not disposed to take an
upper in order to allow this drunken
interloper to sleep comfortably it- my
berth.
""You'll have to get out of this,"" I
said, shaking him angrily. But he
merely grunted and turned over. As
he did so, I saw his features for the
first time. It was the quarrelsome
man of the restaurant.
I was leaB disposed than ever to relinquish
my claim, but the porter,
after a little quiet investigation, offered
a solution of the difficulty.
""There's no one in lower nine,"" h t
suggested, pulling open the curtains
just across. ""It's likely nine's his
berth, and he's made a, mistake, owing
to his condition. You'd better take
nine, sir.""
I did, with a firm resolution that If
nine's rightful owner turned up later
I should be just as unwakable as the
man opposite. I undressed leisurely,
making sure of the safety of the forged
notes, and placing my grip as before
between myself and the window.
Being a man of systematic habits,
I arranged my clothes carefully, puting
my shoes out for the porter to
polish, and stowing my collar and
scarf in the little hammock swung for
the purpose.
At last, with my pillows so arranged
that I could see out comfortably, and
with the unhygienic-looking blanket
turned back—I have alwayB a distrust
of those much-used affairs—I prepared
to wait gradually for sleep.
But sleep did not visit me. The
train came to frequent, grating stops,
and I surmised the hot box again. I
am not a nervous man, but there was
something chilling in the thought of
the second section pounding along behind
us. Once, as I was dozing, ouj
locomotive whistled a shrill warning
""You keep baek where you belong,''
I* screamed to my drowsy ears, and
from somewhere behind came a chastened
""All-right-I-will.""
I grew more and more wide-awake.
At Cresson I got up on my elbow and
blinked out at the station lights. Some
passengers boarded the train there
r.nd I heard a woman's low tones, a
southern voice, rich and full. Then
quiet again. Every nerve was tense.
Time passed, perhaps ten minutes,
possibly half an hour. Then, without
the slightest warning, as the train
rounded a curve, a heavy body was
thrown into my berth. The incident,
trivial as It seemed, was startling in
its suddenness, for although my ears
were painfully strained and awake,
I had heard no ste.p outside. The next
instant the curtain hung limp again;
still without a sound, my disturber
had slipped away into the gloom and
darkness. In a frenzy of wakefulness,
I sat up, drew on a pair of slippers and
fumbled for my bath robe.
From a berth across, probably lower
ten, came that particularly aggravating
snore which begins lightly, delicately,
faintly soprano, goes down the
scale a note with every breath, and,
after keeping the listener tense with
expectation, ends with an explosion
that tears the very air. I was more
and more irritable: I sat on the edge
of the berth and hoped the snorer
would choke to death.
He had considerable vitality, however;
he withstood one shock after
another and survived to start again
with new vigor. In desperation I
found some cigarettes and one match,
piled my blankets over my grip, and
drawing the curtains together as
though the berth were still occupied, I
made my way to the vestibule of the
car.
I was not clad for dress parade. Is
It. because the male is so restricted to
gloom in his everyday attire that he
blossoms into gaudy colors in his pajamas
and dressing gowns? It would
take a Turk to feel at home before an
audience in my red and yellow bath
robe, a Christmas remembrance from
Mrs. Klopton, with slippers to match.
So, naturally, when I saw a feminine
figure on the platform, my first
instinct was to dodge. The woman,
however, was quicker than I; she gave
me a startled glance, wheeled and disappeared,
with a flash of two bronzecolored
braids, into the next car.
Cigarette box in one hand, m*tcb
i . the ot,her, I leaned against the incertain
frame o l the door and gazed
alter her vanished figure. The mountain
air flapped my bath robe around
my bare ankles, my one match burned
to the end and went out, and still I
stared. For I had seen on her expressive
face a haunting look that was
horror, nothing less. Heaven knows,
I am not psychological. Emotions
have to be written large before I can
read them. But a woman In trouble
always appeals to me, and this woman
was morv than that. She was In deadly
fear.
If I had not been afraid of being
ridiculous, I would have followed her.
But I fancied that the apparition of a
man in a red and yellow bath robe,
with an unkempt thatch of hair, walking
up to her and assuring her that
he would protect her would probably
put her into hysterics. 1 had done
that once before, when burglars had
tried to break Into the house, and had
startled the parlor maid Into bed for
a week. So I tried to assure myself
that I had imagined the lady's distress

miss her from my mind. PerhapB she
was merely anxious about the unpleasant
gentleman of the restaurant.
I thought smugly that I could have
told her all about him: That he was
sleeping the sleep of the just and the
intoxicated in a berth that ought, by
all that was fair and right, to have
been mine, and that if I were tied to
a man who snored like that I should
have him anaesthetized and soft palate
put where it would never again
flap like a loose sail in the wind.
We passed Harrisburg as I stood
there. It was starlight, and the great
crests of the Alleghanies had given
way to low hills. At intervals we
passed smudges of gray white, no
doubt in daytime comfortable farms,
which McKnight says is a good way
of putting it, the farms being a lot
more comfortable than the people on
them.
I was growing drowsy; the woman
with the bronze hair and the horrified
face was fading in retrospect. It was
colder, too, and I turned with a shiver
to go in.
As I did so, a bit of paper fluttered
into the air and settled on my sleeve,
like a butterfly on a gorgeous red and
yellow blossom. I picked it up curiously
and glanced at it. It was part
of a telegram that had been torn into
bits.
There were only parts of four words
on the scrap, but it left me puzzled
and thoughtful. It read: ""—ower ten,
car seve—"" ""Lower ten, car seven,""

and found preempted.

Politics in 1840.
On the great western canal ir New
York, from Schenectady to Buffalo,
there is a grogshop within every quarter
of a mile (about every seventy
rods), making the whole number about
1,600 or 1,700 groggeries on the banks
of that one canal, and the two political
parties are striving hard to obtain the
influence of these shops on the elections
of the state.
So it is in Massachusetts. Every
groggery is hailed as a bethel, as
though it must be obtained for political
capital. Oh! Dreadful!
Leading partisans are silent as to
the evils ot drunkenness. Self-styled

am for the wonderful Cuticura Remedies.
My little niece had eczema for
five years and when her mother died
I took care of the child. It was all
over her face and body, also o n h e r
head. She scratched so that she could
not sleep nights. I used Cuticura
Soap to wash her with and then applied
Cuticura Ointment. I did not
use quite half the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment, together with Cuticura Resolvent,
when you could see a change
and they cured her nicely. Now she
is eleven years old and has never been
bothered with eczema since. My
friends think it is just great the way
the baby was cured by Cuticura. I
send you a picture taken when she was
about 18 months old.
""She was taken with the eczema
when two years old. She was covered
with big sores and her mother had all
the best doctors and tried all kinds of

of state for the six months ending
June 30, and it show* a total of 56
were arrested a^ against 120 last year.
Of this number 52 were convicted and
lour dismissad without trial.
This 1¾ a good showing as every case
was won which has been tried the
past six mouths. The prosecuting attorney
nas made a careful investigation
ot th« merits of each case before
arrests were made and has thereby
saved unnecessary expense to the tax
payers.
Prosecuting Attorney Kobb and
Sheriff IStoddard have saved the people
a great deal in taxes by making
careful investigations. A few vigorous
prosecutions of cases with merit
cause people to respect the law.
Last year the criminal exoense was
reduced about 40 per cent as compare

After an investigation of the mater
ial used in the construction of the!
shacks at the tuberculosis sanatorium j
at Howell, it is shown there has been '
no grafting on the part of the con- j
tract, rs.
Some time ago Seth Rubert ot Howell,
who submitted a bid for the construction
ot the shacks, but failed to J
land the contract, complained to GovJ
Warner and members of the state sanitarium
board, claiming that interior;
material had been used in the con-1
struction of the buildings and demandi
n g ^ investigation. It appears that:
when the first bids were submitted the j
plans called tor a higher grade of!
lumber than was afterwards used,
but the board altered the design after
the contract had been awarded and;
was in lull knowledge of the material
that was being used.—Free Press.

Arrangement of Apiary.
being so far apart, for the reason that
it takes too much time to go from one
to another; but for convenience I like
plenty of room. Of all unpleasant
places to work It Is an apiary where
the hives a r e crowded together, or
where they are under trees. If hives
must be set under trees, the limbs
should be trimmed high, so as to
avoid catching the veil. Since I have
no treeB or bushes in my yard I use
the ventilated covers and shade-boards
over them. During the hottest weather
I draw the hives back beyond the
end of the bottom-board so as to give
more air,
Plow Lands Well.
I want soil plowed fairly deep, and
Insist on having every Inch turned
over, realizing the truth of the old
adage: ""Land well plowed Is half
hoed."" I use the disk harrow, going
over the piece about once in two
weeks until the ground freezes, thus
securing a sod bed that is in the best
possible condition for the following
crop, says a writer In Baltimore American.
I have taken a field that WBB
badly infested with witch grass and
by following this method have entirely
eradicated It, and I believe that
I have increased the crop fully 25
per cent by so doing.
Knowledge in Beekeeping.
With the numerous popular works
on bees and beekeeping no one need
be so Ignorant of the subject as to be
deterred from engaging to a reasonable
extent in it, and It Is best to begin
in a small way and increase the
number of colonies as knowledge Increases.
It la almost Impossible to prevent
swarming when producing comb
honey.
The honey extractor savrn thn bees

the beekeeper can secure more honey.

queens and increasing from colonies
that have gathered the most

crop. Green crops prevent the ground
from burning out from the hot sun,
and the roots of 'ihe plants help to
loosen up the soil.
If a half barrel Is sunk at. one corner
of the box and connected by a
spout, the liquid from the manure will
in this manner all be saved and can
be applied to the plants as needed.
The disk harrow is a good tool for

Venice Fashions.

a league to discourage Paris fashions
and bring back the medieval Italian
styles. They hold that the vision of
a Venetian woman attired in the latest
Paris creation and seated in a gondola
In one of t h e picturesque canals of
the city, Is a sight so ridiculous as to
become pathetic. Headed by Signora
Rosa Genoni, the novelist, these daughters
of Venice have started a crusade
that promises to bring renaissance
styles back to Italy. Fortunately for
Paris, Ameircan women do not care
for our aboriginal costumes.

rest in the shade, get cool
water to drink and otherwise protect
themselves, they suffer these

worn and irritated by the heat?

A TRIP UP X T . YONAH.
i
Having spent nearly two weeks
in the mountains only a couple of
miles irom Mt. Youah, a very conspicuous
peak of 2,200 feet elevation,
which dominates the entire
landscape, we decided to take a
day and make to the summit.
The mountain is named from an
Indian youth, and the legend of
his love for Nacoochee is a beautiful
story which space forbids us
here to repeat
We engaged a guide to help us
follow the monntian trial, but at
the last moment he was uuable to
accompany us so at 7 a- m., Mr.
Glenn and myaelf left camp and
wended ourvway np. Of course
to Mr. Q. this was a repititiou of
many such trips in the far west,
but to us it was an experience
never to be forgotten as it was
our first mountain climb. While
to the top of the mountain from
camp seems but a step, we wound
in and out following nothing but
a small trail and it required about
four hours of hard climbing before
we conld seat ourselves on
the bighest rocks and view the
landscape o'er.
To me it was a beautiful aigbt
and Mr. Glenn enjoyed it as well.
While it was not a very clear day
we conld see the valley for miles
and the top of our shack and tent
were plainly visible with our field
glasses. The rock is of granite
and acres of it seem to spread out
on all sides and for hundreds of
feet below us it seemed nothing
but solid granite. Hundreds of
feet below the buzzard build* her

Lin hundreds flying eJRmt ovar\the
valley below aSd aomftime*, far
tar above the mountain top J|""tfth
scarcely a move ot tipr- ponderous
wings only a rock t o and fro
as they wish to go in some ether
direction. These birds are mnob
valued by the tillers of the soiLaa
scavengers aud no one is allowed
to kill one.
Our camp is located . on t h e
western side of this mountain at
the foot, b u t as the Nacooohee
valley lies at the northerly foot
of Youah M t , it is one of t h e
I most beautiful spots in all th""iB
beautiful country.
While we were seated on the
high bluffs, overlooking yoqi aide
of the mouutain, we were pleased
to see quite a mountain shower
below us drifting along and giving
the land a drink. We could
not help b a t think oi Old Livingston
county and wish she were receiving
just such a shower. These
are of almost daily occurrence
here but are very local, even raining
hard on some parts of a small
farm while the sun is shining on
other parts of the same.
We viewed the sights of course
that are down in the books to be
seen here: The Devils Pulpit ajad
a Tight Squeeze; the one being* a
large shelving rock behind wh0h
his statanic majesty may stand
find preach to the buzzards, and
the other a rift in the rocks where
it can either be taken for a hard
place to pass through or a ""tight
squeese"" for two.

sheds of the Atlantic Ocean and
the Gulf of Mexico, the drainage

C H A P T E R I.
I Go to Pittsburg.
McKnight is gradually taking over
the criminal end of the business. _I
never liked it, and since the strange
case of the man in lower ten, I have
been a bit squeamish. Given a case
like that, where you can build up a
network of clews that absolutely Incriminate
three entirely different people,
only one of whom can be guilty,
and your faith In circumstantial evidense
dleB of ^overcrowding. I never
see a shivering, white-faced wretch in
the prisoners* dock that I do not hark
back with shuddering horror to the
strange events on the Pullman car
Ontario, between Washington and
Pittsburg, on the night of September
9, last.
McKnight could tell the story a
great deal better than I, although he
cannot spell three consecutive words
correctly. But, while he has imagination
and humor, he is lazy.
'It didn't happen to me, anyhow,""
he protested, when I put it up to him.
""And nobody cares for secondhand
thrills. Besides, you want the unvarnished
and ungarnished truth, and
I'm no hand for that. I'm a lawyer.""
So am I, although there have been
times when my assumption in that
particular has been disputed.. I am
unmarried, and just old enough to
dance with the grown-up little sisters
of the girls I used to know. I am fond
of outdoors, prefer horses to the aforesaid
grown-up little sisters, and without
sentiment (""am"" crossed out and
""was"" substituted.—Ed.) and completely
ruled and frequently routed by
my housekeeper, an elderly widow.
In fact, of all the men of my acquaintance,
I was probably the most
prosaic, the least adventurous, the
one man in a hundred who would be
likely to go without a deviation from
the normal through the orderly procession
of the seasons, summer suits
to winter flannels, golf to bridge.
So it was a queer freak of the demons
of chance to perch on my unsusceptible
30-year-old chest, lie me
up with a crime, ticket me with a
love affair, and start me on that sensational
and not always respectable
journey that ended so surprisingly less
than three weeks later in the firm's
private office. It had been the most
remarkable period of my life. I would
neither give It up nor live it again
under any inducement, and yet all
that I lost was some 20 yards off my
drive!
It was really McKnlght'a turn to
make the next journey. I had a
tournament at Chevy Chase for Saturday,
and a short yacht cruise planned
for Sunday, and when a man has been
grinding at statute law for a week, he
needs relaxation. But McKnight
begged off. It was not the flrBt time
he had shirked that summer in order
to run down to Richmond, and I was
surly about It. But this time he had
» new excuse.
""I wouldn't be able to look after the
business if I did go,"" he said. He has
a sort of wide-eyed frankness that^
makes one ashamed to doubt him.
""I'm always car sick crossing the
mountains. It's a fact, Lollie. Seesawing
over the peaks does it. Why,
crossing the Alleghany mountains has
the s;ulf stream to Bermuda beaten to
a frazzle.""
So I gave him up finally and went
home to pack. He came later in the
evening with his machine, the Cannonball,
to take me to the station, and
he brought, the forged notes in the
Bronson case.
""Guard ihem with your life,"" he
warned me. ""They are more precious
.nan honor. Sew them in your chest
protector, or wherever people keep
valuables. I never keep any. I'll not
he happy until I see Gentleman Andy
doing the lockstep.""
He sat down on my clean collars,
found my cigarettes and struck a
match on the mahogany bed post with
one movement.
""Where's the Pirate?"" he demanded.
Thf> Pirate is my housekeeper, Mrs.
Klopton, a very worthy woman, so
labeled—and libeled—because of a ferocious
pair of eyes and what Mc-
Knight called a huraneering nose, i
quietly closed the door into the hall.
""Keep your voice down, Richey,"" 1
said. ""She is looking tor the evening
paper to see if it is going to rain. She
has my raincoat and an umbrella watting
In the hall.""
The collara belnx damaged beyond
repair, he left them and went to the
window. He stood there for some
time, staring at tire ftlstk&ess that
represented the wall »:f the house
next door,
""It's raining now,"" he said over his
.shoulder, and closed the window and
the shutters. Something in his voice
made me glance up, but he was watching
me, his hands Idly in his pockets.
""Who lives next door?"" he Inquired
in a perfunctory tone, after a pause.
! was packing my razor.
""House is empty,"" I returned absently.
""If the landlord would put It la
some sort of shape—""
""Did you put those noteH in your
pocket?"" be broke in.
""Yes."" I was impatient. ""Along
with my certificates of registration,
baptism and vaccination. Whoever
wants them will hare to steal my coat
to get them.""
""Well, I would move them, If I were
you. Somebody In the next house
was confoundedly anxious to see
where you put them. Somebody rlgfct
at that window opposite.""
I scoffed at the Idea, but nevertheless
I moved the papers, putting them
in my traveling bag, well down at the
bottom. McKnight watched me uneasily.
""I have a hunch that you are going
to have trouble,"" he said, as I locked
the alligator bag. ""Darned if I like
starting anything important on Friday.""
""You have a congenital dislike to
start anything on any old day,"" I retorted,
still sore from my loBt Sat
urday. ""And if you knew the owner
of that house as I do you would know
that If there was any one at that
window he Is paying rent for the
privilege.""
Mrs. Klopton rapped at the door
and spoke discreetly from the hall.
""Did Mr. McKnight bring the evening
paper?"" Bhe inquired.
""Sorry, but I didn't, Mr. Klopton,""
McKnight called. ""The subs won,
three to nothing."" He listened, grinning,
as she moved away with li&le
irritated rustles of her black silk
gown.
I finished my packing, changed my
collar and was ready to go. Then
very cautiously we put out the light
and opened the shutters. The window
across was merely a deeper black
in the darkness. It was closed and
dirty. And yet, probably owing to
Richey's suggestion, I had an uneasy
sensation of eyes staring across
at me. The next moment we were at
the door, poised for flight.
""We'll have to run for it,"" I said in
a whisper. ""She's down there with
a package of some sort, sandwiches
probably. And she's threatened me
with overshoes for a month. Ready
now!""
I had a kaleidoscopic view of Mrs.
Klopton in the lower hall, holding out
an armful of such traveling impedimenta
as she deemed essential, while
beside her, Euphemia, the colored
housemaid, grinned over a whitewrapped
box.
""Awfully sorry—no time—back Sunday,""
I panted over my shoulder. Then
the door closed and the car was moving
away.
McKnight bent forward and stared
at the facade of the empty house next
door as we passed. It was black,
staring, mysterious, as empty buildings
are apt to be.
""I'd like to hold a post-mortem on
that corpse of a house,"" he said
thoughfully. ""By George, I've a notion
to get out and take a look.""
""Somebody after the brass pipes,""
1 scoffed. ""House has been empty for
a year.""
With one hand on the steering
wheel McKnight held out the other for
""Guard This w i t h Your L i f e . ""
my cigarette case. ""Perhaps,"" he
said; ""but 1 don't see what she would
want with brass pipe.""
""A woman!"" 1 laughed outright.
""You have been lookinR too hard at
the picture in the hack of your watch,
that's all. There's an experiment like
that. If you stare lonp enough—""
Hut McKnight wiis growing sulky;
he sat looking rigidly ahead, and he
did not speak again until he bnmght
the Cannonball to a stop at the station.
Even then it was only a perfunctory
remark. He went through
the gate with me, and wtfn fWe minutes
to spare, we lounged and smoked
In the train shed. My mind had slid
away from my surroundings and had
wandered to a polo pony that 1
couldn't afford and Intended to buy
anyhow. Then McKnight shook off
his taciturnity.
""For heaven's sake, don't look so
martyred,"" he burst out; ""1 know
you've done all the traveling this summer.
I know you're missing a game
to-morrow. But don't be a patient
mother; confound it, I have to go to
Richmond on Sunday. I—I want to
see a girl.""
""Oh, don't mind me,"" I observed
politely. ""Personally, I wouldn't
change places with you. What's her
name—North? South?""
""West,"" he snapped. ""Don't try to
be funny. And all I have to say,
Blakeley, Is that if you ever fall In
love I hope you make an egregious
ass of yourself.""
In view of what followed, this came
rather close to prophecy.
The trip west was without incident
I played bridge with a furniture dealer
from Grand Rapids, a sales agent
for a Pittsburg iron firm and a youug
professor from an eastern college. I
won three rubbers out of four, finished
what cigarettes McKnight had left
me and went to bed about one o'clock.
It was growing cooler, and the rain
had ceased. Once, toward morning, I
wakened with a start, for no apparent
reason, and sat bolt upright. I had
an uneasy feeling that some one had
been looking at me, the same sensation
I had experienced earlier iu the
evening at the window. But I could
feel the bag with the notes, between
me and the window, and with my arm
thrown over It for security, I lapsed
again into slumber. Later, when 1
tried to piece together the fragments
of that journey, I remembered that
my coat, which had been folded and
placed beyond my restless tossing,
had been rescued in the morning from
e. heterogeneous jumble of blankets,
evening papers and cravat, had been
shaken out with profanity and donned
with wrath. At the time, nothing occurred
to me but the necessity of
writing to the Pullman Company and
asking them if they ever traveled in
their own cars. I even formulated
some of the letter.
""If they are built to scale, why not
take a man of ordinary stature as
your unit?"" I wrote mentally. ""I cannot
fold together like the traveling
cup with which I drink your abominable
water.""
I was more cheerful after I had had
a cup of coffee in the Union station.
It was too early to attend to business,
and I lounged in the restaurant and
hid behind the morning papers. As I
had expected, they had got hole? of my
visit and its object. On the first page
was a staring announcement that the
forged^ papers in the Bronson case
had been brought to Pittsburg. Underneath,
a telegram from Washington
stated that Lawrence Blakeley of
Blakeley & McKnight had left for
Pittsburg the night before, and that,
owing to the approaching trial of the
Bronson case and the illness of John
Gilmore, the Pittsburg millionaire,
who was the chief witness for the
prosecution, it was supposed that the
visit was intimately concerned with
the trial.
I looked around apprehensively.
There were no reporters yet in sight,
and thankful to have escaped notice
I paid for my breakfast and left. At
the cabstand I chose the least dilapidated
hansom 1 could find, and giving
the driver the address of the Gilmore
residence. In the East end, I got in.
I was just In time. As the cab
turned and rolled off, a slim young
man in a straw hat separated himself
from a little group of men and hurried
toward us.
""Hey! Wait a minute there!"" he
called, breaking into a trot.
But the cabby did not hear, or perhaps
did not care to. We jogged comfortably
along, to my relief, leaving
the young man far betiind. I avoid
reporters on principle, having learned
long ago that I am an easy mark for
a clever interviewer
It was perhaps nine o'clock when I
left the station. Our way was along
the boulevard which hugged the side
of one of the city's great hills. Far
below, to the left, lay the railroad
tracks and the seventy times seven
looming stacks of the mills. The white
mist of the river, the grays and blacks
of th° smoke blended into a half-revealing
haze, dotted here and there
with fire. It was unlovely, tremendous.
Whistler might, have painted it
with its pathos, its majesty, hut he
would have missed what made it infinitely
suggestive—the rattle and
roar of iron on iron, the rumble of
wheels, the throbbing beat, against
the ears, of fire and heat and brawn
..elding prosperity.
Something of this I voiced to the
grim old millionaire who was responsible
for at least, part of it. Ho was
propped up in bed in his East end
home, listening to the market reports
read by a nurse, and he smiled a little
at my enthusiasm.
""I can't se^ much beauty in it myself,""
he said. ""But it's our badge of
prosperity. The full dinner pail here
means a nose that looks like a flue.
Pittsburg without smoke wouldn't be
Pittsburg, any more than New York
prohibition would be New York. Bit
down for a Tew minutes, Mr.'Blakeley.
Now, Miss Gardner, WestinghouBe
Electric..""
The nurse resumed her reading in
a monotonous voice. She read literally
and without understanding, using
initial aud abbreviations as they came.
But the shrewd old man followed her
easily. Once, however, he stopped
her.
""D-o is ditto."" he said gently, ""not
d o ""
AH the nurse droned along, 1 found
myself looking curiously at a photograph
in a silver frame on the bed
side table. It was the picture of a
girl In white, with her hands clasped
loosely before her. Against the dark
background her figure stood out slim
and young. Perhaps it was the rather
grim environment, possibly it was my
mood, but although as a general thing
photographs of young girls make no
appeal to me, this one did. I found
my eyes straying back to it. By a
little finesse I even made out the
name written across the corner, ""Alison.""
Mr. Gilmore lay back 'among his
pillows and listened to the nurse's
listless voice. But he was watching
me from under his heavy eyebrows,
for when the reading was over, and
we were alone, he indicated the picture
with a gesture.
""I keep it there to remind myself
that I am an old man,"" he said. ""That
is my granddaughter, Alison West.""
I expressed the customary polite
surprise, at which, finding me respon-

a Gilmore, every inch. Supposed to

""Very noticeably,"" I agreed soberly.

time, and replacing the picture Mr.
Gilmore gathered his spectacles from
beside it. He went over the four notes
methodically, examining each carefully
and putting it down before
he nicked up the next. Then he
leaned back and took off his glasses.
""They're not so bad,"" he said
thoughtfully. ""Not so bad. But 1

; aidocJ l'urr so greatly In controlling
| himself. Several yonrs after the death
of Hamilton, killed by Burr in a duel,
t Burr visited Boston, and Mr. Devereux
of Salem paid him some attentions.
j The visitor was taken to the Boston
Atheneum, where, while the two men
; were walking through the gallery of
Hcnlpture, Mr. Devereux happened to
catoh sipht of a bust of Hamilton.
The thought flashed aeross his mind
that Burr mlpht not rare to be eon-
• fronted with the sight of the features
; of the man he had slain. But no. Burr
was undisturbed. He also espied the
bust, and. although Mr. Devereux had
inHtinotlvery turned away, he i walked
up to It and said in a loud tone; ""Ah:
Here Is Hamilton!"" Then, passing his
fingers aloug certain lines of the face.
he added, ""There was the poetry:""
Hamilton's contemporaries gave him
credit for possessing a poetic mind.
Prayer of a Hone.
The following article appeared
iu a recent ibaue of ""Our D u m b
Animals:""
""To Thee, my Mauter, I offer
my prayer:
Feed me aud take oare of me.
Be kind to me. D o uot jerk t h e
reins; d o uot whip me wheu going
up hill.
Never strike, kick or beat me
when I fail to understand what
you want of me, but give me a
chance to understand you. Watch
me, and it' I refuse to do your bidding,
see if there is not tomethiug
wrong with my harness.
Do not give me too heavy loads;
never hitcti me where water will
drip on me. Keep me well shod;
examine my teeth when I fail t o
eat, I may have an ulcerated tooth
which yon know is painful. I am
unable t o tell you iu words wheu
I am sick, so watch me aud 1 will
try to tell you by sigus. Bet me
sometimes, I enjoy it and will
learn to love you.
Protect me in summer from the
hot sun. Keep a blanket ou me
iu winter weather, and never p u t
a frosty bit iu my mouth but hold
it iu your hands a moment first.
I carry you, pull you, wait p a -
tiently for you long hours, day or
night. I cannot tell you wheu I
am thirsty; give me clean cool
water often in hot weather.
Finally, when my strength is
goue, instead of turning me over
to a human brute to be tortured
and starved, take my life in t h e
easiest a n d quickest way and your
God will reward you in this life
and in Heaven. Amen.

Editorial Pleasantries.
Two editors quarreled, ami one referred
to the other's early career In
his paper.
""As for our contemporary,"" he wrote,
""what can we expect from a man who
was five years ago hawking from door
to door with n donkey, and an ill conditioned
beast at that?""
His rival did not deny it, but in his
next issue appeared the following:
""Our contemporary says that Qve
years ago we were 'hawking from door
to door with a donkey, and an i!! conditioned
beast at that/ He is quite
right We were so occupied. Bat we
are surprised to find the donkey baa
such a good memory.""

PANAMAFOR WOMEN
MOST DESIRABLE OF ALL *HATS
• FOR WARM WEATHER.
Good Ones Now Within the Reach of
Ail—Hpw They Should Be
Trlmened and Fastened.
Most beautiful of hats, the panama
has grows to be the desire of ail,
masculine and feminine alike, for
wear In the hottest of weather. Good
Panamas are not so expensive as to
be out ,of reach of people who are
In moderate circumstances. The Initial
expense ma?""*e-ewfce that of an
ordinary straw hat, but the length of
tt*V*
crime to thrust a pin through so fine
a piece of weaving, even at a single
place.
SCARFS OF PRINTED CHIFFON
Wide Materiel Should Be Shirred
Across and the Whole Lined
With Soft, Thin 811k.
Charming scarfs that will be a real
protection can he made trdnV w)de
printed chiffon, {and from three to tour
yards are necessary, in making the
material should be shirredT across the
width in groups ejf pin tucks until the
goods is only half its width. These
groups are set in at intervals, leaving
flowing ends.
Then the whole is lined' with a
soft, thin silk, the latter frilled to
underlie the ends of the scarf.
The edges should be finished with
marabou. Though of fragile materials,
the- construction of them results in a
really practical and fairly substantial
accessory.
A new and attractive idea in many
instances is the addition of braid or
a fold to all edges of a coat that
forms part of a suit fashioned from
white serge displaying a colored pin
stripe. Often a suit of such material
is apt to lack character, and this the
coat edging supplies.
The color of the braid or fold is.
of course, chosen to match the stripe
in the serge.
In the case of the suit being worn
by a short or stout woman, it will be
better to omit the trimming, using
something definite in color for deep
collar and cuffs instead for relief.
DESSERTS FROit PINEAPPLE
Fritters, Souffle, Cream and tog Cabin
Are Four Dainty Dishes Made From
This Appetising Fruit.
- Pineapple Fritter*—Make ^a batter
with one egg, beaten separately. To
jthe yolk add one-halt cup of milk,
pinch of salt and enough flour to
make a stiff batter, the hojueu white
and one-hair teaspoon of baking powd
e r . Open a can of the beat sliced
pineapple. Cut each attee of pineapple
in two, dip In,the batter and fry
in hot lard. Drain, spflpkle with
powdered sugar and serve. Fresh fruit
is much nicer tf obtainable than the
canned.
Pineapple Souffle,—Melt two ounces
of butter In a stewpan, ., put in three
ounces of fine flour, mix with half
fplnt of milk, boll until It thickens;
have ready three ounces of pineapple
cut small, the same quantity of sugar;
put with the cooked mixture, add one
by one the yolks of three eggs, then
the whites beaten to a stiff froth;
make a sauce with one cup of pineapple
juice, half cupful of cut pineapple.
Cook the pudding three-quarters
of an hour.
Pineapple Cream.—Select one ripe
pineapple, pare, remove the ""eyes,""
grate, add sugar (pound for pound, or
a little less, but It must be sweet, aa
freezing destroys some of the effects
of the sugar.) Allow one pint of cream
to each pinf of pulp and sugar, and
freeze. Be sure and have all the ingredients
ley cold before combining
them.
Pineapple Log Cabin.—Select a large
ripe pineapple, pare, eye and cut Into
slices about a fourth of an Inch thick.
Cut these across into half-Inch strips.
Sprinkle thickly with sugar and set in
a cold place until time to serve. Then
carefully drain off the sirup and arrange
the strips six deep in log cabin
fashion on small china plates. Sprinkle
each strip with powdered sugar and
freshly grated cocoanut Fill the center
with fine ripe red raspberries and
pour over them the sirup which has
been drained from the pineapple.

life of a Panama makes
tremely good investment.
For many generations this hat was
woven in one shape by those natives
of Latin America who have brought
their handicraft to such perfection
that all the world admires It. Then
enterprising Americans who were
heavy purchasers began asking for
modifications of the shape and for
hats woven for women especially.
But the natives did not like to make
a change. Their success has been
built up on the old original shapes
made by their fathers and they co ••'
see no good reason for changing
shaking new ones. Perhaps they v,.
right, but finally they were persua< :
to weave hats designed for women aa
we now have the Panama in sallp.
shapes with softly rolling or droopy
brims and crowns of various forms.
To trim the Panama seems like
painting the Illy and adorning the
rose. A band or scarf is quite enough
to add to these exquisite hats. It Is
all they carry when quite new. But,
after two or three seasons' wear, trimming
helps out in concealing defects
or in modifying or even concealing
a crown which may look out of date.
The advantage of the Panama of the

To Roast a Leg of Veal.
Wash well and have leg of veal
boned and filled with stuffing. Take
a derp iron kettle and put layers of
sliced onion, carrots and turnips; add
one teaspoonful of salt, four round
peppers, 4o-r cloves, four bay leaves,
and on this lay the meat and put
three slices of salt pork on the meat
and put wooden toothpicks to hold
them In piece; then add one pint of
water, cover the kettle tight and put
in a hot oven for three hours. When
done, take out the roast and put on
a platter with the vegetables around.
Serve strained gravy separately.
Stuffing for Roast.—Three cupfuls
stale bread crumbs, two onions
chopped fine, one teaspoonful salt,
one-half teaspoonful of white pepper,
two tablespoonfuls chopped parsley
and one-half cupful melted butter.
Delleious Dinner Salad, Ch*nilliyT«r*s

""to Prepare Sailed Lettuce and
Other Hlnta to the Cook, -s -
Dinner Salad.~For a dinner aalad

two. Just before it is to be served
drain and dry It, njix it with very finely
cut white celery—enough to give it
a celery flavor—and tost, it thoroughly
in the following dressing: Rub a bowl4)
with the cut side of a pieoa-of garlic,
put in a salt spoonful of salt, a dash
of pepper, a drop of tabasco sauce and
six tablespoonfuls of olive oil. When
the ingredients are blended add a
tableapoonful of terragon vinegar and
emulsify.
Boiled Lettuce*—Boiled lettuce is
little known to the average housekeeper,
but It has many friends among
Europeans. The heads should be
cleaned, washed and tied so that the
leaves will be close together. Put the
lettuce heads in a large saucepan in
which they will be apart and cook them
in boiling salted water until tender.
Lift them carefully from the pan, drain
them and press free of water,
them in a circle on a round dish and
cover with a sauce made of melted but*
ter seasoned with salt, pepper and a
little vinegar. Or it may be served
with cream sauce.
Home Made Bonbons.—Colored bonbons,
home made, are served with tea
instead of cube sugar- They are usually
flavored with lemon. Tea with
lemon clears the complexion. For ex*
haostlon tea should be drunk clear
anil sipped very slowly.
•tMffed White Cherries.—White cherl
ries stuffed with creai& cheese arid*
served in lettuce leaves with mayonnaise
are delicious for the salad course,
but are not recommended for the family
where there is ""one maid and six
small children.""

to Tills Famous Remedy.

the tray a loop of ribbon is sewn so
that the tray may be easily lifted
from the basket when those things
which may be underneath it are required.""
Sheer Linings.
Linings, when they are used at all,
aa beneath the softf sheer afternoon
and evening gowns, are still the thinnest
possible mou8seline—that crisp
silk muslin, which is not chiffon, but
equally sheer.
The lining is closely'fitted, but with
an ample allowance for all those
places where the wear is heaviest. In
other words, It is a fit, but not a tight
one, and It la completed before the
outer materials are drapetf upon It,
or else the underarm seam, alone Is
left basted until the outer material is
draped and sewed with It.
Breakfast In the Bedroom.
The summer hostess considers carefully
the question of the breakfast
tray: for there are many guests whose
custom It is to partake of this meal
in bed, or at least in their own rooms.
In the ease of dressing gown and informal
coiffure, and a dainty means of
serving this bedroom breakfast must
be provided beforehand, in a large
country house two footmen are usually
kept busy from eight o'clock until
ten In the morning, carrying breakfast
trays about, and special china is usually
supplied for these trays—rather
small cups and dainty cream, sugar
and coffee receptacles in individual
size.
Sagging Cane 8eats.
If the seats of caned chairs sag,
turn them upside down,- wash well
with soapy water, soaking so as to
thoroughly wet them. In drying they
will stiffen almost to their normal
state. It is well to begin this treatment
before the seats have sagged
badly, and if kept up the chairs wilt
wear a long time.
ries. The shells are made of puff
peStaV.The strawberries should be
sweetened and allowed to stand in the
sunshine for fifteen or twenty'minutes.
Both the strawberries and the shells
should then be set on the Ice and when
cold put together and the berries covered
with a rosette of whipped cream.
A Flrelesa Cooker.—A new tireless
cooker, made of heavy tinned copper,
with heavy sheet aluminum kettles,
claims many merits because of its
materials and insulation. With the
cooker goes a pamphlet giving the
time required for cooking the various
cereals, meats, fish, fruits, vegetables
and deserts.
Cake for Children.—Cakes that the
children are ""crazy about"" call for a
cupful of sugar, a cupful of rolled oats
and an egg beaten with the sugar. At
the last stir in a handful of stoned
raisins and vanilla and drop on greased
pans by the teaspoonfuls. Bake in a
slow oven.
8trawberry Spongs. — Strawberry
Bponge is made as follows: Soak half a
box of gelatine in a cup and a half of
cold water. Add a cupful of sugar and
when the jelly is cold, but before It begins
to thicken, stir in a pint of strawberries
that have been mashed and
rubbed through a sieve. Fold in the
stiffly beaten whites of two eggs and
when the mixture is thoroughly blended
turn into one large or several small
individual molds and place on the ice.
Serve with cream.
Almond Cake Filling,—For almond
cake filling beat the whites of two eggs
stiff and whip into them a cupful and
hree-quarters of powdered sugar. Add
half a pound of almonds that have
been blanched and mortared to a paste
with a little sugar and flavor lightly
with vanilla. The frosting should be
beaten very thoroughly after the nuts
go in.

""Then, perhaps you won't mind telling

""Of course I won't,"" he replied.

four onions and one can tomatoes.

loss of rural leaders by emigration to

wonderful possibilities of the soil
when peoperiy c&aaaged and the ease
with, which wealth and distinction are
achieved in rural life when science

we ran over oor forty or fifty ex*
changes, to note the moral loop of
them. These papers are of all
aises aud grades, from every variety
of town, and are edited by
practical men who are pretty well
acquainted with the world, the,
flesh and the devil. In not one of
them did we find a semblance of
defence for whiskey. In not one
of them was there a trace of vulgarity,
and none taught or justified
dishoneey. Neither could we
find a sneer at parity, religion or
at the better things of life. I n
many of them were bite of excellent
advice, little homely sermons
on temperance, frugality and industry.
Ml of them were loyal
to the home town, aud advocated
honest principles in government
and individuals. Wherever there

MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE.
The question of divorcee haa been
under careful consideration for many
centuries. The Pharisees tempted
Chriaawby M U ^ hia judgment on the
Mosaic, law vof divorcement, and received
an answer direct and fundamental.
It hat been ft serious, a continuous,
a vexatious euestlon from
time immemorial, says Newark News.
'All governments, clerical and civil,
have tried to setUeJt and have failed.
Our own government and each of the
states and all the courts have for
many years been trying to"" establish
uniform divorce laws, and to discourage
divorces, as much as possible.
Yet they are increasing Instead of
diminishing. A few denominations
will not tolerate divorces, but the civil
laws recognise them. From the point
of view «f the latter the innocent
party to divorce proceedings is guilty
of no offense, ought not to b« held in
dishonor and Tshbuld be permitted to
marry again. It is the abuse of the
divorce laws by immoral, unconscionable,
undesirable citizens thaj has
brought the most serious dishonor
upon the dissolution of the marriage
contract. The Reformed synod's attitude
: with reference to innocent
parties in necessary divorce proceedings
accords with general public Bentlmerifc
What should be done to the
guilty ones is yet under discussion.

The bill advocated by the Audubon
societies of the state of New York,
forbidding the sale within this state
of the plumage of any wild bird which
Is protected within New York, has
passed the legislature and is awaiting
the governor's signature. We trust It
will receive his approval, says Rochester
Herald. For many years the Audubon
societies have labored unceasingly
to educate the people of this state to
the economic as well as the sentimental
value of wild bird life. Their
progress has been very slow. The rural
communities of the state, even the
frult*raislng sections of western New
York, have been afflicted with almost
incredible ignoranee of the usefulness
of birds. Farmers' boys often rob
birds' nests of their eggs, and amuse
themselves by aiming their newly acquired
firearms at birds of every kind.
It Is seldom that a word of censure Is
heard from the male parent, whose
property the young mischief-maker is
hastening to destroy.
A porous plaster worth $50 is something
of a novelty in the curative
agency line. A druggist in Middletown,
N. Y., Is the possessor of this
valuable article, and he Is about to
send it to the treasury department at
Washington to be redeemed. The
worthy druggist was troubled with a
lame back and had his wife apply the
plaster. The lady did not notice a $50
bill which her husband had placed on
a dresser in their room, and the note
was sticking to the plaster when the
latter was put where it might do the
most good. There was much mystery
and a long hunt before the bill wan
located, but now plaster, bill and all
will be sent to the government officials
and ""something just as good""
will be substituted.
A Chicago doctor has arranged to
give the dogs a drink this summer.
He has bought a thousand two-quart
basins and the city council has allowed
him to distribute them about
the city in front of stores and houses,
and the tenants will be expected to
see that .they are kept filled with water
for the benefit of the dogs. The
doctor got the notion from the City of
Mexico, where storekeepers are required
to keep such basins at their
doors. The idea is a good one, and
should reduce the number of mad
dog scares In Chicago this summer.
There will be less hydrophobia if the
dogs can get water whenever they
want it

While the fire department was

lumber yards, another alarm was
turned in from the south side of the
city, where a fire had been discovered
in the J. £. Gatl lumber yards.
Damage to the extent of several
thousand dollars was done In the
North & Coon yards, but because of
the low water pressure and a high
wind the firemen lost control of the
fire in the Gall yards, and within an
hour half a block of lumber was in
flames. The fire quickly spread to a
number of residences near by, which

Detroit's Population.
The census bureau is being flooded
with requests for information aa to
the population of various cities, but
nothing wlir~be given out until the
official figures are published, which
will not be for several weeks.
There is intense rivalry between
several cities and a good deal Of
curiosity as to whether Detroit will
reach the 500,000 mark. It can be
said that it will not, and while the
exact figures are secret the census
will show the population to be slightly
in excess of 468,000.
This is very close to the water
board estimate of 462,678, given out.
The water board's figures are based
on the number of users of water,
computed according to an established
scale.
Officials Inspect Northern Lands.

past two days, returned to their homes
after making a thorough inspection of
the methods employed by Mr. Carter
on his 160,000-acre tract of northern
land, In raising crops on the jack
pine lands that at one time were
thought to be useless.
In speaking of the trip, Land Commissioner
Russell said: ""I have always
known that these northern lands
that the state has been selling for almost
nothing would some day be bringing
a higher price, and the demonstrations
being made by Mr. Carter prove
beyond a doubt that the state will
soon be selling their lands in that section
for a far higher price than haa
ever been obtained before.""

Michigan and California carried
away the honors of the annual B. P.
O. E. competitive drill, held Wednesday
on the Belle Isle parade grounds.
Battle Creek team carried away first
honors and the Los Angeles ""White
Squadron"" took second prize.
The famous ""Cherry PickerB"" of Toledo
lodge did not compete. Instead
they gave an exhibition after the regular
order of business was over. Many
of those who saw the work of tho
teams were of the opinion that the
men from the breakfast food town
would have cleaned up with the boys
from Maumee, had the latter been in
the contest.
Garry Herrmann, Cincinnati, grand
exalted ruler, Benevolent and Protective
Order of Elks, was elected Tuesday
morning by acclamation at the
largest lodge session ever held in the

he was going to be placed in the
highest office, but the enthusiasm was
Intense and riotous just the same.
None but Elks were present in that
momentous hour but the cheering in
Lyceum theater welled out until every
outsider knew something large had
occurred.
As a fitting final for a week of
big, spectacular events, a display of
fireworks was given off Belle Isle
which, like the Elks' parade, the
automobile parade, the sham battle
and the aeroplane flights, thoroughly
deserves the encomiums, ""best Detroit

other city, was defeated.
Instead the board of trustees was
instructed to prepare plana and spedncatibns
for the remodeling of the
home and beautifying of the grounds,
to be presented to the next session of

addition the sum of $7,500 was voted

SHE RECOGNIZED THE VOICE
And From Remark Made, Also Knew
the Party Waa Not Engaged
In Prayar.
Confidential friends of Louis B.
Shields are telling this story abdut
that element Republican: A state
convention at Columbus had Jaat adjourned
and the Cuyahoga county
delegate* were all back home when
somebody suggested a friendly game
of poker. The game waa going along
right merrily at three a. m.
At that hour an officious attendant
called up Mr. Shields' residence, which
happened to be almost next door.
""This Is long distance,"" said the
servant with no warrant of authority
whatever. ""We are all here in Columbus
and can't get home until morning.""
""That's all right,"" came back the
reply, ""but If that voice I hear hi the
apartment house next door saying
'that's good' isn't Mr. Shields' then 1
can't recognize a voice when 1 hear it
at night.""
And that la the end of the story, for
the voice saying ""that'B good"" waa
Indeed that of Mr. Shields, and It was
so near home, so the narrator relates,
that there was no use in offering a
denial.—Cleveland Leader.
Novelty.
""1 thought you told me you had
something original in thlB libretto,""
said the manager, scornfully. ""Here
at the very outset you have a lot of
merry villagers singing, 'We are happy
and gay!'""
""You don't catch the idea at all,""
replied the poet, wearily. ""The 'g' is
soft. It should be pronounced 'happy
and Jay.'""
HARD TO PLEASE
Regarding the Morning Cup.
""Oh how hard it waa to part with
coffee, but the continued trouble with
constipation and belching was such
that I finally brought myself to leave
it off.
""Then the question waa, what should
we use for the morning drink? Tea
was worse for us than coffee; chocolate
and cocoa were soon tired of;
milk waa not liked very well, and hot
water 'we could not endure.
""About two years ago we struck
upon Postum and have never been
without it since. B
""We have seven children. Our baby
now eighteen months old would not
take milk, so we tried Postum and
found she liked it and It agreed with
ner perfectly. She la today, and has
been, one of the healthiest babies in
the State.
'1 use about two-thirds Postnm and
one-third milk and a teaspoon of sugar,
and put it into her bottle. If you couldhave
seen her eyes sparkle and hear
her say ""good"" today when I gave it
to her, you would believe me that
she likes It
""If I waa matron of an infanta'
home, every child would be raised on
Postum. Many of my friends say,
'You are looking so well!' I reply, T
am well: 1 drink Postum. I have no
more trouble with constipation, and
know that 1 owe my good health to
God and f^fturn.""
""I am writing this letter because 1
want to tell you how much good
Postum has done us, but if you knew
how I shrink from publicity, you
would not publish this latter, at least
not over my name.""

""I—I have not aaked; I have

I looked at her, my heart failing,
my voice trembling aa I spoke.
""But—but are yoa going to-—England
r*
""Yes.""
""When?""
There was a long pause, in which I
heard her rapid breathing.
""They—they tell me I can get passage
on an English vessel, the Albatross,
within a few days after we
reach Buenos Ayres.""
Her hand tightened on mine, and
she dropped to her knees, her face
buried in the coverlet
I fought the devil in me like a man,
my hands clenched, my teeth set fiercely,
but if was a while before I could
control my voice sufficiently for reply.
She did not lift her head, and as
I continued to gate at her my heart
throbbed with a love which became
sacrifice.
""Doris,"" I managed to whisper at
last, ""whatever you believe to be
right 1 will think right also. Only let
""But Now We Both Know.*
me be alone for a little while—Just a
little while, uutil I can fight this out
and corquer.""
She lifted her head, her hand on ray
hair, her gray eyes looking frankly
into mine.
""I—I thank you, Jack,"" she smiled
tremblingly. The next moment I was
alone.
While I was sitting up and partially
dressed that evening, Marsden, the
chief mate, came in and told me briefly
the story of our rescue.
""We were considerably to the west
of our course,"" he said, gravely, ""because
we had me* headwinds and a
heavy sea all the way down the coast.
It was just at daybreak when we
sighted your boat in longitude 78 degrees
west and latitude 53 degrees,
17 minutes south. I've been knocking
about at sea for' 20 years, Mr. Stephens,
but I r »r saw a more pitiful
sight than tL longboat presented
when we got up alongside. The Jib
held, but the mainsail was in tatters,
and for a minute or two I didn't think
there was a living soul aboard. There
was a man forward lashed down with
ropes, dead; a man and a woman were
wrapped up in blankets amidships,
leaning against each other, their eyes
closed. Close up to the stern another
woman was lying with her arms about
your neck and hiding your face.""
""Doris, with her arms about me!""
I thought. How well I knew the desperation
that could lead her to the embrace
she had ever refused me! Marsden
went on:
""A big fellow held to the tiller as
if he was frose there, but he'd dropped
down until his head hung dangling as
the boat rocked. There wasn't one of
them took any notice of ua until we
were fairly alongside. Then'this big
sailor lifted his pead and stared dulleyed
like he thought he saw a vision,
and when I Bpoke to him the woman
that had her arms about you staggered
to her knee* and began to cry.
Good Lord, sir, but it made my heart
ache, and I never saw so much misery
In any human face before. Well, we
fell to, and got you all on the El Cld,
hoisted the whole outfit over the rail,
and, barring the dead man, I reckon
you're all good for a spell of lifo yet.""
""Th«y told you our story?""
""Yes—most of it?» anyway; and I
understand all right what it was did
you up so. It wasn't hunger or cold,
hut Just the loneliness an* strain.""
I looked away from him, out
thrown the ope*- port at the gray
riste of tea,
""That waa it, Mr. Marsden,"" I said,
a y vdoaw emitkin« to.tfa* memory* p/ It.
I t waa the hell of the great ocean—
tt broke our hearts."" *
As the El Cid aped on her way up
the Fatagonian coast my strength
came rapidly back, and I soon found
my way on deck, where, wrapped
against the chill of the wind, I paaaed
much time talking with Doris, seeing
De Nova and Kelly now and then.
Celeste waa often with ns, her eyes
roguish aa ever, but her face thin and
white. Once, when we chanced to be
left alone together, I undertook to
questloc. the girl.
""What is the matter between you
and De Nova, Celeste? Have you two
fallen oat?""
She tossed her head, flashing her
eyes at me.
""X not know we ever fall in,"" she
said, pouting prettily. ""He ver' nice
for a sailor, but w'y do I want a sailor?
1 want se sea no more ever.""
""Yea, but De Nova can quit the aea.""
""Non, non!"" she cried, shaking her
head roguishly, ""I have a very good
time wis Mons. De Nova! he talk nice,
he make love nice—but it Is all over
now.""
""You mean you are going back to
Europe?""
She shrugged her shoulders, her
teeth gleaming.
""Ooi, monsieur; I go wiz madam to
London, to Paree; zare I have plaisir.""
""But De Nova? How does he
take it?""
""Pah! he get over it; I know ze
sailor. See, monsieur; w'at I tell
you?""
I glanced aft in the direction she
pointed. Within the companion stood
the debonair mate, his little black
mustaches curled jauntily upward, his
teeth merrily glistening, as he smiled
down upon a rosy-cheeked damsel,
whom I recognized as the stewardess.
My companion patted her little foot
on the deck.
""Pah! did I not tell you, monsieur?
I know ze sailor.""
She Bwept away with the swift
movement of a bird, and I turned my
face about to perceive Marsden standing
silently beside me. He drew up
a deck chair and sat down at my side.
His grave face and manner led me to
'speak first.
""I have been wondering,"" I said,
slowly, ""whether you intend to report
UB as soon as you make land. No
doubt you heard the story of the Sea
Queen at Valparaiso, and have already
guessed us to be the survivors of the
crew of that yacht.""
""Why, yes,"" stroking his beard; ""we
have no doubt as to that We know
little of the affair of the Sea Queen
beyond what your man Kelly has told
us, as we were up the north coast at
the time. However, I do not think
there will be anything gained by reporting
your rescue immediately, for
no one can care particularly about
your arrest except possibly a British
officer or such. The Chileans are stlU
busy with their war, and the man who
owned the yacht being dead—""
""You—you—mean Lord Darlington?""
""Yes; that Is what \ came here to
tell you about. I have been waiting
until you were strong enough to hear
the story. I thought you were the one
who ought to tell her."" He paused
doubtfully. ""I understand she is
Lady Darlington?""
""Yes,"" I answered, my voice trembling
in my eagerness to comprehend
fuljy. ""But are you sure her husband
is dead?""
""Regarding that fact there is no
possible doubt, Mr. Stephens. We
were in port at Valparaiso barely
three hours, but long enough to hear a
brief account of the affair. It seems
Lord Darlington had in some way
quarreled with or Insulted a Chilean
naval officer. This officer being on
duty in the grounds of the presidente
the night of the declaration of war,
the two met again and renewed their
quarrel. The officer was drunk and
abusive, and his lordship drew a revolver.
They were separated at that
time by the guard, but an hour later
the Englishman was found beside the
fountain of the inner court dead from
a knife-thrust in his back. His murderer
disappeared instantly and most
mysteriously.""
""My God!"" I exclaimed, dazed with
the information. ""It must have been
Sanchez!""
""It must have been Sanches,"" Marsden
repeated, soberly. ""He was fleeing
from the crime when he ran into
your party. It waa his own haunting
conscience that put the idea of the
ghosts Kelly tells about into his head.
You will tell her the story?""
""Yes,"" I said, not venturing to look
into his face, realising that he understood.
I sat there, it seemed for hours, endeavoring
to muster up courage for
my task as I watched, far in the distance,
the darkening outlines of Cape
Flores. At last I went slowly down
the companionway into the cabin.
Slowly and falteringly at first, but
gaining control of my voice as I proceeded,
I told her all, marking the
pallor of her cheek, the horror in her
eyea. For another age I sat silent,
gaaiai across the deserted cabia out
threugh aa open port, afraid to dts>
turn the motlonleaa woman beside me.
Piaaily my Angers, almost unconeckmely,
crept across the rail of the
settee until they touched her own.
""Doris,"" I whispered, pleadingly,
confused by her silence, ""is it possible
that yon already knew this?""
She dld~~npt raise her bowed head,
but I felt the soft pressure of her
hand. """"""""""'
""Yes. Jack, I—I knew,"" she acknowledged,
doubtfully. ""Sanches
told me in the boat when he felt
himself to be dying. It was then I
came back and took yon in my arms.
But I couldn't tell yon—I could not
tell yon. I felt that if we were
saved you must learn it from other
lips than mine.""
""But now we both know.""
She lifted her eyes suddenly, eyes
misty with tears, and I realized the
truth forever.

Preachers of all denominations occupied
chairs upon the platform. They
were giving their voices and influence

The Presbyterian clergyman had the
floor and most vigorously attacked the
enemy. He delivered some fierce, telling
thrusts, and the audience was
with him. T h e boss received some
cruel jabs.
""That's right, soak him!"" encouraged
a man with a stentorian voice
who had standing room in the rear.
As the clergyman warmed up to his
subject the interrupting ""soak him!""
came from the rear with greater power
and frequency.
The speaker paused. He was not
Irritated, but gently threw the audience
into a good-natured hysteria by
saying:
""Th*> intentions of the gentleman
in the rear are good, but wholly inopportune
and ill advised. If he'll kindly

speaker, Brother Herrick of the Baptist
church, he'll be accommodated,

TOUCHES THEIR TENDER SPOT.
Most Men Have Weakness for Being
Photographed on Horseback, Says
Observant Photographer.
A young man went out with a camera
one morning not long ago and
took seven snap shots of early morning
horseback riders. He sent proofs
of the pictures that turned out well
to the men who were photographed
and every one of the men sent him an
order to finish up a few of the pictures.
""Of course they did,"" said a more
experienced amateur photographer
when he heard about it. ""A man will
always buy a picture of himself on a
horse—unless he's an unusually poor
rider and looks bad on a horse. No
matter how modest a man is, you
catch him at the one time when you
•may appeal to his vanity, when he's
mounted on a good riding horse,""
This Mixed-Up World.
If things would not run into each
other so, it would be a thousand times
easier, and a million times pleasanter
to get on In the world. Let the sheeplness
be Bet on one side and the
goatiness on the other, and immediately
you know where you are. It is not
necessary to ask that there be any Increase
of the one, or any diminution of
the other, but only that each shall
pre-empt its own territory, and stay
there. Milk Is good, and water Is
good, but don't set the milk-pail under
the pump. Pleasure softens pain, but
pain embitters pleasure; and who
would not rather have his happiness
concentrate into one memorable day,
that shall gleam and glow through a
lifetime, than have it spread out over
a dozen comfortable commonplace,
humdrum forenoons and afternoons,
each one as like the other as two peas
in a pod?—Gail Hamilton.
The Hour Glass.
Instead of being obsolete and simply
an interesting r*lic, the hour glass
in various forms is a twentieth century
necessity. A machinist author
ity points out that for such purposes
as timing, hardening and tempering
heats in twist drill manufacture,
where seconds or minutes must be
gauged accurately, nothing serves like
the hour glass with the right amount
of sand. Accuracy to fractions of a
second can be had much more easily
than by watching the hands of a
Wat's*.

SOFT, WHITE HANDS
May Be Obtained in One Night.
For preserving the hands as well
as for preventing redness, roughness,
and chapping, and imparting that velvety
softness and whiteness much desired
by women Cuticura Soap, assisted
by Cuticura Ointment, is believed
to be superior to all other skin soaps.
For those who work in corrosive
liquids, or at occupations which tend
to injure the hands, it is invaluable.
Treatment—Bathe and soak the
hands on retiring in a strong, hot,
creamy lather of Cuticura Soap. Dry
and anoint freely with Cuticura Ointment,
and in severe cases spread the
Cuticura Ointment on thin pieces of
old linen or cotton. Wear during the
night old, loose gloves, or a light bandage
of old cotton or linen to protect
the clothing from stain. For red,
rough, and chapped hands, dry, fissured,
Itching, feverish palms, and
shapeless nails with painful finger
ends, this treatment is most effective.
Cuticura Remedies are sold throughout
the world. Potter Drug ft Chem.

There seems to be an erroneous
statement in regaid to the auto and
bug.jy mixup on the road from Howell
to Pinckney recently. Floyd Jackson
with a party ol friends were m
their way home from Lansing. Their
lamps were lighted but not working
as brigtt as they wishsd so were driving
very slowly. Tuey came suddenly
into a ^loud of dust and began to
put on the brakes. Before they were
aware a buggy loomed in front which
was struck in such a manner as to
throw the two ladies who were driving,
out, causing the horse to jump
clear of the buggy breaking thills and
tugs.
The greatest wonderment is that
the occupants ot the buggy escaped.
[f there had been a light on the back
of the buggy the accident would not
have happened. The law compells
autos to have lights both front and
rear and it should also corapell vehicles
on the road to have the same so
as to protect the auto drivers as well
as themselves, as it is impossible to
discern a vehicle ahead after dark and
in the dust witbont lights.

INFANTILI PARAt^rS't.
At various points throughout the
country there are vivid recollection*
of the deaths due to the mysterious
outbreak of infantile paralysis. Not
only children, but ejojerl/ persons were
amongIts Vlsiims!M,XW Tork those
who died from the malady included a
prominent business; man and-a priest
who had visited young members of his
flock afflicted with infantile paralysis
and caught the Illness from them.
There were numerous cases in S t
Paul and Minneapolis. Specialists In
the Rockefeller laboratories at New
York hare been working on infantile
paralysis for a'year^using aaonkeys
in experiments which nave demonstrated
that it Is not toe to a* abnormal
condition of the blood, but is an infectious
disease of the spinal cord.
Despite acreful microscopic search
for a distinctive microbe, so far none
has been found. Experiments are now
directed to the discovery of an antitoxin
for infantile paralysis such as
that which has been used with marked
success in the treatment of diphtheria.
The knowledge that has been gained of
the nature of the disease is expected
to facilitate the discovery of Its cure.
It transpires that the recent; report
from Germany that a certificate of Inspection
on importations of pork from
'America would be * deemed adequate
jwas erroneous. The German government
has not removed its interdict in
[this regard. Knowing that the Bpeclal
Inspection for trichina has been abandoned
in this country, Germany will
no longer request Bpecial certificate!
as to that disease, because it is realized
that no such certificates can be
produced. This, of course, leaves matters
unchanged. But at present there
is no worry as to exportatlons ol
American pork because a short supply
of hogs and an avid market for pork
have caused prices to mount
to heights at which exportation is un
profitable.
THE SONG OF THE COUNTRY
A New York yachting. writer remarks
that the schooner Shamrock,
once a proud bearer of the New York
Yacht club pennant, has been ' num<
bled"" by conversion Into a fishing boat
with gasoline engine. The Bervlce may
!te humble In comparison with the
royal service of a well-kept raclni
craft, but it 1B far from humble in
comparison with the fate of the latest
racers for the America's cup, the ma
jjority of which have gone to the scrap
yard with their first paint on their
plates.
A French astronomer announces that
the comet which was visible recently
is not Halley'B, and he promises that
the genuine comet will appear in August.
We positively refuse to get excited
over any more comet announce*
ments. It is too late now to get
anything into the magazines about an
August comet, anyhow.-
An immigration inspector passed a
woman who could not speak the language
when her parrot, weary of the
parley,ejaculated, ""Cut that out!"" ""All
right,"" said the inspector. ""Your parrot
speaks English. That shows you
have been in this country, as you say.
[You're admitted."" Look for a boom in
educated parrots.
Ingenuity worthy of a better cause
was that of a couple of Jersey robbers
who, on calling at a house and being
{admitted, bound and gagged the inimates,
after which one joyously played
the piano to deceive the neighbors
iwhlle the other gathered up the loot
iThls is the whistler at the plow with
a vengeance.
It may become necessary for a benign
government to arrange a system
of pensions for those who are killed
or wounded In the war the automobile
is waging on the human race.
A New Jersey man recelvec $200 for
a tooth ho lost in a fight with r street
car conductor. This is one of the
crudest as well as most expensive
cases of dentistry on record.
According to a physician everybody
will be crasy in 2175, If the present
ratio of increase does not decline. That
will be a great year for musical comedies.
A Pittsburg sculptor arrested on a

an indictment had been voted charging
John A. Maloy, a grocer, with attempting
to corrupt Oscar T. Morford,
a juror in the recent trial of Lee
O'Neil Browne.
Morford. his wife and his father,
Thorough Morford. testified before the
grand jury. Mrs. Morford testified
that shortly after the Browne jury had
been sworn, she went to Maloy's
grocery within the neighborhood In
which the Morfords live. t Maloy, Bhe
said, gave her two cigars, which he
asked her to give to her husband, who
had been accepted on the jury. Maloy
asked her to use her influence to persuade
her husband to vote for the acquittal
of Browne, holding out as a
reward of doing so that Morford
would not have to work for a railroad
any more as he would get a lump of
money.
By agreement between counsel the
retrial of the case of Lee O'Neil
Browne, charged with bribing Representative
Charles A. White to vote for
William Lorimer for United States
senator, was continued to July 20.

Watertown, S. D.—One dead and a
score injured, the main tent and menagerie
tent of Ringlings' circus in
ruins and two horses killed is the
result of a tornado here.
The spectators bad barely left the
tent when the first blast ripped the

caught fire from the lamps and was
carried blazing into the air by the
gale.
It was the heaviest hailstorm ever
witnessed In the Red river valley.
It extended over the northern part
of Grand Forks county and across
Polk county, Minnesota.
In some sections the crops were
pounded down to the ground and
leaves were stripped from the trees.

Cincinnati, July 6.—Three names
were added to the list of killed in the
wreck on the C. H. ft D. tracks near
Mlddletown, and the death of two
more, which is expected I>y the physicians,
will bring the number up to 25.
William Anninger of Springfield, an
unidentified white man now at Mlddletown,
and Evelyn Lloyd of Round-
Point, Me., who died at the Dayton
hospital, complete the list of those
who lost their lives as a result of
somebody's blunder.
Officials of the Big Four say that
the cause of the wreck can be found
In the fact that train dispatcher Smith
of the Cincinnati, Hamilton ft Dayton
road in Dayton, is alleged to have
""busted"" or revoked an order giving
the freight train until 1:07 p. m. to
make the siding at Poasttown, and Is
said to have failed to give the passenger
a copy of this order. Had he
given Pilot Wall a copy of this orcfer
the passenger train would have remained
at Poast-Town until the
freight passed it General Manager
Gould of the C. H. ft D., replying to
the statements made here by Wall,
says the case was something like
that, but he would not say so positively.
An eleven-months-old baby hurled
100 feet from the telescoped second
car of the wreck was found alive in a
near-by corn field many hours after
the accident The baby was orphaned
by the wreck, both parents having
been killed in the wreck.
HUGHES FOR CHIEF JUSTICE
Governor Will Probably Succeed Melville
W. Fuller As Head of
Supreme Court
Washington.—With the death of
Chief Justice Melville W, Fuller and
the probable retirement of Associate
Justice William H. Moody of the Supreme
court, President Taft will have
two vacancies In that court to fill
within the next few months.
It is generally believed that Gov.
Charles E. Hughes of New York, who
has been confirmed as an associate
Justice, will be promoted to chief Justice,
and that Lloyd W. Bowers of
Chicago, solicitor general of the department
of Justice, will be appointed
justice in his place. The other alternative
suggested is that Mr. Bowers
be made chief justice, It having been
understood here for some time that
the president considered him qualified
in all legal respects for the place. It
is known, however, that President
Taft has considered Governor Hughes
also In this connection so far as his
abilities are concerned.

The story opens with the Introduction
of John Stephens, adventurer, a Massachusetts
man, marooned by authorities at
Valparaiso, Chile. Being Interested In
mining operations in Bolivia, he was denounced
by Chile as an insurrectionist
and as a consequence was hiding'- At his
hotel his attention was attracted by an
Englishman and a young; woman.
Stephens rescued the young* woman from
a drunken officer. He was thanked by
her. Admiral of the Peruvian navy confronted
Stephens, told him that war had
been declared between Chile and Peru
and offered him the office of captain. He
desired that that night the Esmeralda, a
Chilean vessel, should be captured.
Stephens accepted the commission.
Stephens met a motley crew, to which he
was assigned. He grave them final in*'
structlons. They boarded the vessel. They
successfully captured the vessel supposed
to be the Ksmeralda. through strategy.
Capt. Stephens gave directions for the departure
of the craft. He entered the cabin
and discovered the English woman
and her maid. Stephens quickly learned
the wrong vessel had been captured.
It was Lord Darlington's private yacht,
the lord's wife and maid being aboard.
He explained the situation to her ladyship.
Then First Mate Tuttle laid bare
the plot, saying that the Sea Queen had
been taken in order to go to the Antarctic
circle. Tuttle explained that on a
former voyage he harl learned that the
Donna Isabel was lost In 175». He had
found It frozen In a huge case of ice
on an island and contained much gold.
Stephens consented to be the captain
of the expedition. He told Lady
Darlington. She was greatly alarmed,
but expressed confidence in him. The
8ea Queen encountered a vessel in the
fog. Stephens attempted to communicate.
This caused a fierce struggle and he was
overcome. Tuttle finally squaring the situation.
Then the Sea Queen headed south
again. Tender Tuttle'a guidance the vessel
made progress toward Its goal.
De Nova, the mate\ told Stephens that he
believed Tuttle, now acting as skipper,
insane because of his queer actions.
Stephens was awakened bv crashing of
glass. He saw Tuttle in the grip of a
spasm of religious mania and overcame
hfm. The sailor upon regaining his senses
was taken ill. Tuttle committed suicide
by shooting. Upon vote of the crew
Stephens nsstimed the leadership and the
men decided to continue the treasure
hunt, the islands being supposed to be
only 200 miles distant. Tuttle was buried
in the sea. Lady Darlington pronouncing
the service. Stephens awaking from
sleep saw the ghost, supposed to have
formed the basis for Tuttle'a religious
mania. T'pon advice of Lady Darlington.
Stephens stnrted to probe the ghost.
He cnme upon Lieut. Sanchez, the drunken
officer he had humbled in Chile. He
found that at Sanchez' Inspiration, Engineer
McKniRht played ""ghost"" to scare
the men into giving up the quest. Stephens
announced thst the Sea Queen was at
the Rpot where Tuttlo's quest was supposed
to he. The crew was anxious to go
on In further search. De Nova and Stephens
conquered them in a flat fight. Lady
Darlington thanked him. The Sea Queen
started northward. She was wrecked in a
fog. Stephens. De Nova, Lady Darlington
and her ma'd being among those to set
out in n life boat. Ten were rescued.
Stephens saw only one chance in a thousand
for life. Lady Darlington confessed
her love to Stephens and he did likewise.
Lady Darlington told her life story; how
she hnd been bartered for a title, her
yearn^n.j? for absent love. She revealed
herself as the sr.hool chum of Stephens'
sister. J?he expressed a wish to die in the
sea rather than fare her former friends
and go hank to the old life. A ship was
s'ghtcd. The craft proved to be a derelict.
They hoarded her. She was frozen tight
with hundreds of years of ice. The vessel
was the Donna Isabel, lost in 1753. 128
years previous. The frozen bodies of the
former crew were removed. They read
the log of the Isabel, which told how
the Spaniards had died from cold, one by
one. I/ady Darlington sang to prevent the
men l'rom becoming moody. The crew
commenced the hunt for treasure. They
found the iron chest, said to contain a
part of 3.000,0()0 pesos, firmly imbedded in
ico. Lady Darlington expressed the belief
that it would never benefit the men, for
she said the Donna Isabel would never
reach port. The men got a lust for gold.
Stephens queued it by whipping one. The
DonnH Isabel showed indications of sinking.
They prepared to depart with, what
treasure had been found. The next morni

M we aat thua through those long
hours battling against the sea, the
motionless forma , of the blanketed
sleepers alone evidencing other human
life within the boat. It was her
presence; her love, her inspiration,
which stiffened me to the continued
performance of a labor growing harder
with each day.
It became easy to see what this
meant to us all. It was neither hunger
nor thirst, although I felt it safer
to put all upon short rations from the
beginning, but rather the awful, continuous
strain of hopeless loneliness
In that vast desert of ocean. The contemplation
of it maddened us one moment
into frenzy, and depressed us the
next into profound melancholy. We
could not shake it off; awake or in
dreams it held us to slavery- Everywhere,
everywhere the same eternal
swell of the seaB, the same eternity
of clouded sky, the Bame dull, dead
jnonotony of scene and motion, hour
after hour, day after night. It drove
us mad, crushing down upon the brain
as though it was a real weight, merciless,
agonizing. The air remained
frosty, the southwest wind chilling,
the spray which slapped into our faces
icy cold. Our fingers stiffened with
cold, our bodies shook from the chill;
only beneath the warmth of the
blankets could we find comparative
comfort. Hour after hour the men
lay, curled up and motionless, only
crawling forth reluctantly to take
their turn on watch.. Our greatest
effort was to keep the straining cordage
free from ice, and to prevent Its

;^'^\^s*tlier this was because of their dispositions,
or failure to comprehend fully
the desperation of our situation, I
am unable to say. Yet outwardly they
seemed to retain courage longer.
However, their eyes told me plainly
enough how heavily the hours
rested upon them. I saw comparatively
little of Celeste, as she chose a position
near the foot of the mast, and
remained there much of the time,
wrapped warmly in blankets, ministered
to by De Nova, who sat beside
her. But BoriB remained aft with me,
resting when I was off duty, but sib

my knee whenever it was'my trick at

formation along the gunwale or at the
bows, over which spray dashed in
constant shower.
Good God, how those hours dragged,
with the same heartless scene without,
the same hopeless faces within!
Most of us continued to live merely
because we could not die. Indifference
took the place of hope, and we
performed our simple tasks automatically,
almost unconsciously. Johnson,
De Nova and I took our tricks at the
helm, with one man always awake
forward to manage the running gear,
and only once during those first six
days were we compelled to lower
our sail or take a reef in the jib.
Then a fierce squall came tearing
down upon us from out the northwest,
a swift, sharp blow, heralded by a
blinding snow flurry which kicked up
an ugly sea, lashing us with heavier
stinging spray, and coating everything
with ice. For seven hours we
fought in a blinding smother, every
man awake, crouching beneath blankets,
the women stowed away under
the thwarts, and De Nova and I at the
tiller, the huge surges pounding
against our backs, as we thus kept
them from sweeping the laboring boat
fore and aft, and swamping her. I
never believed we could weather it,
the increasing waves tossing us about
like a cork, yet, as the dawn broke,
we succeeded in broaching to, with
canvas drag holding her, aad the very
moment I realized she would ride
safely I fell forward dead asleep.
Blither Doris or one of the men covered
me with blankets, my icy clothing
drying on my body. But it was
Doris who welcomed me back to life
again, as a little glimpse of westering
sun grew barely visible through a rift
in the dun clouds, with the mainsail
again spread, and the longboat leaping
to the foaming summits. Oh, but it
was worth all suffering just to read
the confession of her eyes, and to
feel her bend down over me in sudden
tenderness! I am not ashamed that
the tears dimmed my eyes so I could
scarcely see her dear face or that my
voice choked so I could do no more
than whisper her name. She must
have understood, for her soft hands
touched my cheek, and so we rested
for a long time, scarcely exchanging
a #ord between us.

the edge of twilight, 'when Kelly
called, MA sail!"" pointing eagerly out
over the port quarter. Then, some
upon knee*, some standing, we all
saw it, n misty, white reflection, showing
vague against the darkening horizon.
I know not what it really was
—a gleam of canvas, ft speck of cloud,
or the pinnacle of an iceberg—tout at
we swept toward It, the night
dropped down over the waters blotting
the last faint vestige from view. Yet we
hung on desperately, the man staring
out into the black void, grumbling aad
cursing, until the long night wore
away wHh.no reward.
That was about the last I recall
clearly; afterwards all grew indistinct,
commingled, confused. It was
like a dream rather than reality. I
performed my work as before, the instincts
of a seaman leading me rightly,
and out of the mist numerous incidents
arise to memory proving that
I observed «nd thought. Never can I
forget the sight of that narrow boat,
tossing about on the crests of great
seas, or plunging down into the black
hollows; the green water pouring in
cataracts over the gunwale; the constant
bailing; the wet, soggy blankets;
the moaning of wind through the icy
cordage; the flapping of the sail; tile
gray masses of water curling over us
ill continuous threatening; the awful
expanse of o££an revealed by daylight;
the black loneliness through
which we swept at night. We ceased
to talk, to think, even, growing more
and more sullen, moody, dull-eyed,
cramped of limb and benumbed of
brain. We aat silently staring into the
smother, forever beholding the mirages
of distorted minds. Men would spring
to their feet, yelling out some discovery,
only to sink back again, with
ghastly faces buried in their hands. It
was all illusion; the waves, the clouds
mocking us, even our voices sounding
unnatural, our faces growing unfamiliar.
Only Doris; Doris did not change—
not, at least, to my eyes. Ay, she became
whiter, weaker, the shadows
growing darker beneath her eyes, yet
she still sat at my knee, looking up
into ray face, yielding me new courage
i out of her heart of hearts. God knows
I believe she saved me, saved me
from going mad, saved me with the
power of her love—held me sane, held
me steadfast, when the very soul in
me had given way. I think of those
other faces now with a shudder. It
sems as if all that was human had
gone out of us; we were no longer
men, only things. We crawled about.
We growled rather than used articu
late speech, bruised by the constant
buffeting of the sea, sore with thr
srr«art of salt water, chilled through
by the icy wind, we snarled like wild
beasts, our eyes bloodshot, our faces
haggard and unclean.
I know not how long it endured. J
lost all track of day and night. 1
merely remember this and that out oJ
the mist, Doris' gray eyes ever upon
me, her hand clasping mine; Celeste
lying motionless day after day under
the blankets; De Nova rocking back
and forth, striving to sing, or creeping
aft to the tiller, with his body shaking
as though he had a palsy; Johnson,
never moving, his head sunk into his
chest, his gaze out over the bows; Mc-
Knight curled up as a dog lies, sometimes
cursing fiercely, only to break
off and cry like a child. I remember
when the boom swung about, pitching
Sanchez headlong and breaking his
leg; how we pulled it back into position
with a sickening snap, binding it
there firmly, while beads of perspiration
told the Chilean's pain. I recall
that other day when Dade suddenly
stood up, his eyes staring dully out
into the fog-bank which wrapped us
about, extended his hands, smiling,
and said: ""Sure, I'm comin', ol' pal,""
and stepped overboard. We grabbed
for him, but he went down and never
came up again. McKnight was the first
to speak.
""He had his pocket3 full o' gold. I
saw him takin' it las' night.""
There was a fierce storm of oaths,
the faces of the men wolfish and savage
as they glared down into the water;
but Kelly fell on his knees and
began to pray.
It almost seems to me that this was
the last, though it could not have
been. There were hours after that,
perhaps even days and nights, when
,1 lived without really knowing that I
lived. It was a period of fancies, phantoms,
dreams, weird and fantastic,
haunting horrors that left all realty
blank. I know that Johnson helped
me at the tiller while De Nova lay
prone in the bottom of the boat, sometimes
talking to himself, occasionally
lifting his head to peer over the side.
What he said had no meaning, just
a jumble of French words, and he
smiled like that dead Spaniard in the
cabin of the Donna Isabel. I
know that Sanchez, who had bravely
done all he could in spite
of his broken leg, fell into the delirium
of fever, screamed for hours that
he was dying, and had at last to be
bound fast in his blankets. I know
Kelly came creeping aft with a kfiife
ra his hand, imagining he had been
robbed, and I had to knock him flat
with the tiller-bar, the boat falling off
into the trough of the sea and nearly
capsizing before I could get her head
»3bout again. Doris waa bending overj
r;—B~e nches, who seemed to have an ts>
terra] of saJsJty at the moment—chat
waa the last I remember; then, I
think, J pitched oyer against Doris
when she came hack to me, and everything
went dark.
CHAPTER XXX.
la Which We Cow* «e the End.
I was lying between white sheets in
a rather wide berth when I came
again to consciousness, a yellow glow
of sunlight streaming in through an
open port, and the clanking sound of
machinery in my ears. I eweed my
eyes again, wearily, my head reeling
yet from the delusions of the past No,
this was real—a steamer, rising and
falling on the swell, but pushing steadily
forward to the rapid revolutions of
the screw. I could hear the tramping
of feet on deck, even the slush of the
sea without I opened my eyes again,
watching a curtain wave to the fresh
air rushing.in through the port, and
then I turned my head on the pillow.
Doris sat on a low stool gazing out
through the aperture on the sea, her
face partially turned away. She looked
pale, careworn, her eyes heavy and
sad. Suddenly she turned her glance
in my direction, and sprang up with a
glad cry.
""Oh, Jack, you have been lying
there so long unconscious!""
I could only clasp her hands and
gaze into the depths of her gray eyes.
""I have proved rather a poor specimen
of a man, I fear, dear,"" I confessed
at last, ashamed of my weakness.
""How long?""
""It is three days since we were
brought on board, and we were a day
and night in the boat after you lost
consciousness.""
I endeavored to think it out, to comprehend.
She leaned farther over, her
lips touching my cheek.
""Don't worry about it. Jack; everything
is all right now. Johnson took
your place at the tiller, and—and we
were picked up.""

NOT A CORPOREAL DELIGHT.
Real Nature of the Kiss, as Viewed
by a Writer Who Has Clearly
Studied the Subject.
It is the fashion of the more bilious
moralists to put kissing among the
gross pleasures, with eating, yodling,
snoring and the use of tobacco; but,
as a matter of fact, it is not a corporeal
delight at all, says a writer in the
Baltimore Sun. Its sole physical accompaniment,
indeed, is a sensation
of suffocation, and this, as all will admit,
is scarcely agreeable. No; the
insidious ""charm of the pastime must
be sought in its psychic effects—in its
marvelous and delightful Interference
with the norrnal processes of ratiocination.
A man kissed is a man transfigured
and transmogrified. Let him
be the worst of misanthropes before
the sweet impingement of nose upon
nose, and he may yet emerge from the
turmoil a philanthropist. One kiss,
properly slase-managed, is enough to
transform a pirate into a poet, a politician
into a philosopher, or vice versa.
One small kiss, indeed, is sufficient
to turn a proud, heaven-kissing
bachelor into a servile married man—
the most stupendous, antipodal and
lamentable transformation possible, at
this writing, in a mere human being.
Terms for Ineorlety.
According to Hotten, some of the
terms denoting inebriety are as follows:
Beery, bemused, boozy, bosky,
corned, foggy, fou, fresh, hazy, elevated,
kisky, lushy, moony, muggy,
muzzy, on, screwed, stewed, tight and
winy. In an intermediate class stand
podgy, beargered, blued, cut, primed,
lumpy, plowed, muddled, obfuscated,
swipey, three sheets in the wind and
topheavy. ""But the acme,"" says the
same authority, ""is only obtained
when the disguised individual 'can't
see a hole in the ladder,' or when he
is 'all mops and brooms,' or 'off his
nut,' or 'with his main-brace well
spliced,' or 'with the sun in his eyes/
or when he has 'lapped the gutter' and
'got the gravel rash.' or 'on the rantan,'
or 'on the re-raw,' or when he is
'sewed up,"" or ""regularly scammered.* **
Salt Seasoned Timber.
A workman was packing salt about
a pile of timber. ""Seasoning timber
with salt eh? It sounds like a joke,
doesn't it?"" he said. ""It is often done,
though, especially in ship timber.
Ships built of salt-seasoned timber get
a better insurance rate. Some very
rich woods are seasoned in boiling oil.
That's an ancient and costly process.
A new dodge is electrical seasoning.
With strong electric shocks the. sap
is driven out of the wood and replaced
by a solution of borax and resin. The
scheme is cheap; not half as good as
salt.""
Camphor Cures Colds.
Take gum camphor and dissolve in
kerosene, having enough so that there
ia always a little camphor undissolved
in the bottom of the bottle.
Rub the lame parts thoroughly and
often with this and you will have re*

Midas had come to that point in his
career where everything he touched
turned to gold.
""What shall you ever do with the

Midas affected not to be uneasy.
""Just wait till the boys begin to touch

""Why don't you call your invention

answered. ""You see,"" he went on, giving

The Miser of Sag Harbor.
""Economy,"" said Daniel W. Field,
the millionaire shoe manufacturer of
Boston, who at the age of forty-five
has entered Harvard, ""economy is essential
to wealth, but by economy I
don't mean niggardliness.
""Too many men fail to attain to
wealth because they practise a
cheeseparing and mean economy that
gets everybody down on them.
""They practise, in fact, an economy
like that of old William Brewster of
Sag Harbor. William, you know, would
never buy oysters hecause he couldn't
eat shells and all.""

When Beau Nash end Wealey Met.
Beau Nash, though but an indifferent
churchgoer, not only went to hear
Whltefield preach, but attended a service
at Bath held by John Wesley. The
Incident is related In Southey's ""Life
of Wesley:""
""While he was preaching this remarkable
personage entered the room,
came close to the preacher and demanded
of him by what authority he
waa acting. Wesley made answer,
*By that of Jesus Christ, conveyed to
me by the present archbishop of Canterbury,
when he lald^his hands upon
me and said, ""Take thou authority to
preach the gospel""' Nash then afflrmed
that he was acting contrary tu
the laws. 'Besides,'' said he, 'your
preaching frightens people out of their
wits.' 'Sir.' replied Wesley, 'did you
ever hear me preach?' 'No,' said the
master of ceremonies. 'How, then,
can yon Judge of what yon never
heard?* Nash 'made answer, 'By common
report* 'Sir/ said Wesley, la not
your name Nash? I dare not Judge of
yon by common report I think it not
enough to judge by.' ""

To Save You Time.
Have you ever noticed that when
reading you waste a certain amount
of time in turning from the end of
one line to the beginning of the next?
Long ago, when the world was not so
busy as now, columns were of a much
greater width. Since then they have
been narrowed more and more.
Of course In an hour's reading little
time is lost, but in a lifetime it is like
ly to be considerable. Realizing this,
some one has suggested that type
should be arranged as follows. You
read to the end of the line, drop the
eyes and read backward:

The argument is that practice will

is usually found more than sufficient

The Power of Napoleon.
The desperate struggle to do some
thing worth while Is the very thing
which draws out our reserve forces
and develops latent power, says Orison
Swett Marden In Success Magazine.
Without this struggle many people
would never have discovered their
real selves. Napoleon was never so
resourceful, never so level headed, nev
er had that vigorous mental grasp,
was never able to make such powerful
combinations, as when he was driven
to desperation. It waa when all
bridges were burned behind him and
there was no possibility of retreat that
the possible Napoleon came to the rescue.
Napoleon said of his great general
Messena that he never showed
his mettle until he saw the wounded
and dead falling all around him in battle.
Then the Hon in him was arous
ed, and he fought like a demon.

""But,"" continued Johnny, still toying
with the jug, ""if I should knock it off
and not catch i t then I would catch it.
wouldn't I?""
""Yes, you would!"" his father grimly
returned, this time with quick decision.

meaning of Cemetery.
It la not correct to say that ""ceme
tery"" means the ""city of the dead.""
The word is from the Greek ""koimi*;
terlon,"" meaning sleeping place, not
the place of the dead. There is nothing
in the etymology of the word to
warrant us in thinking that it was
originally Intended to convey the idea
that the departed were really dead any
more than there is in the old Hebrew
term for cemetery, ""bethaim,"" the
house of the living -/-Exchauge.
REMEDY
FOR
The wrong and injustice being
perpetrated day alter day in Michigan
in the saloon counties of the
state thru compelling the men and
boys brought before city and village
courts to provide for the payment
of fiues as pnnishmerit for
arrests for drunkenness is deserving
of more attention than has
been given it. In nine cases out
of ten the keepers of saloons sold
whiskey arid beer to the men who
were later arrested for drunkenness
with full knowledge of the
fact that they soon would be
drunk and in all probability would
be arrested and would have to pay
fines. It is further true that in a
majority of these cases the money
to pay these fines either comes
directly out of the pockets of the
wife or children at home or it limits
their home support to that extend.
Isn't it cowardly and an
act of extreme injustice to punish
the family for an offence participated
in by two men, one already
almost drunk and irresponsible,
and the other sober and selfish
and fully aware of t b e inevitable
results of his action. I t is because
the people of Michigan and people
everywhere are coming to understand
the share of the saloon
in such happenings that the demand
is being made with increasing
emphasis that it moat go.

JACK'S TEMPTATION
By WILLIAM ALFRED COREY
~ • • • ^ : •
""Up there, the range finder stands."" p Ing."" she said, handing him a card as
the gunner's mate was explaining to
an interested group about him. ""and
the aim is taken through these two
little tubes which are fitted with
lenses. By mesne ot this wheel the
muule of the gun is raised or lowered
and this other one is to swing it
laterally as the man taking aim directs.
Tbfs gun Is effective at sixteen
miles.""
Pulling a lever. He swung back the
breech block and. letting the visitors
peer Into the bore of the great weapon,
be was showing them the process
of charging the gun when he suddenly
stopped, turned pale and trembled as
though In mortal fear.
Women are proverbially quicker
witted than men. At least the woman
iwaB in this instance; and Floretta Williams
quickly and tactfully relieved
the tension of the situation by extending
a delicately gloved hand to. the
discomfited gunner with the words:
""Why, Mr. Masters! How amaaed 1
am to meet you!""
And then turning to her party, she
said, with perfect grace and composure,
""Mr. Masters, let me introduce
my uncle, Mr. OUson of Los Angeles;
and these young ladies are my cousins.
Miss May Oolson, Mr. Masters,
and Miss Angelotta Gilaon."" Then, to
her friends, she explained, ""Mr. Masters
is a former frl«nd of mine from
Kansas.""
The young lady's presence of mind
had been so well and charmingly
shown that probably none in the
party except Jack Masters himself,
not even the young lady's cousins,
though It takes a woman to read a
woman, detected a vague something
In Floretta Williams* manner that indicated
her desire not so much to
show cordiality to the embarrassed
gunner as to relieve the general
strain.
However, the situation relieved,
young Masters pulled himself together
and devoted all his attention to MISB
Williams, his former Kansas friend,
and her party.
Two hours were spent in Inspecting
the wonders of the great battleship.
The gunner took them everywhere,
above and below, forward and aft, explaining
the mysteries of turret and
tower, gun and bridge, signals and
codes and flags, details as to discipline
and routine, the how and the why and
the why not in a thousand different
particulars, and with infinite patience.
Often, as Jack Masters trledv to
catch Floretta Williams' eye, ha as
often failed. No; once she did look at
him, but it was whea he had addressed
her as ""Floretta,"" and the look had
said with a plainness he could not
misunderstand, ""I am Miss Williams,
please,"" and be had humbly swallowed
the rebuke.
But even as he talked of the navy
and of the things of war, his mind
was far, away, both in point of space
and time. As he was explaining to
them the wireless message system in
use on the ship, memory was bringing
to his mind wireless messages from a
village among corn and wheat fields;
Df faces of friends, of harvest field and
schoolroom and pleasure party, and
then of the sudden end of It all; of an
insane fit.of jealousy, a penciled goodby
that bad been a stab in the heart
of love, and then of the new life with
its suspense, its hopelessness and its
trailing burden of guilty conscience
And here she was by his side; here
on the quarterdeck of the Kansas, the
woman whose heart he had wounded
In a moment of causeless frenzy-rand
tie could get no word from her. She
was interested only in the ship.
The time had come for Miss Williams
and her party to go, and the
Mariposa's signal was already blowing-
Z,
""Floretta—Miss Williams,"" hesitated
Jack, with the earnestness of
desperation in his voice. ""I must have
a word With you-before you go""
""Why Should you?"" she returned
eoldly. ""You are nothing more to me.
And you told me five years ago that
1 was nothing more to you. What Is
there to change lttH
""Oh, Bio,"" pleaded Jack, taking'her
reluctant- hand and leading her to a
secluded corner by a gun carriage,
""dear Flo, 1 have been miserable ever
since I left you and 1 hav* suffered a
thousand deaths.""
""It was misery of yogr own making,
and if It was death you brought it on
yourself,"" she sale ' -**! gave you no
cause to wrtte*me that terrible let-.
ter."" There wan a Ujroiddlng bard-'
ness In her voice andf manner utMgf.
chilled the sailor's heart.
""Flo."" he urgrri as the last whistle
was blowing. ""I have forty-eight hours'
shore 'eave beginning , to-morrow
morning; may 1 rail on you and have
0 trank talk? Don't refuse,"" he pleadfcd.
""givp me one chance.""
""I liav:-« no objection in your callhe
helped her down the gangway and
onto the deck of the Mariposa, ""but
don't presume too much.""
In the heart of Ihe sailor lad standing
on the quarterdeck of the battleship,
ami watching the Mariposa
steaming away toward her landing,
there raged a greater storm than he
had ever known at sea. tie had regretted
hit Insane jeaiousy and cruel
letter of farewell almost Immediately;
but the feeling that he had himself
made the case hopleaa had kept him
tram communicating with Floretta
and. more to shake off the peat than
for anything else, he had joined the
navy and embarked an an entirely
new life. But now. he had met her
face to face, had heard her voice, had
felt the magic of her presence, had
learned that she waa still free, and
the former love had suddenly leaped
sup and taken him by storm.
For a time the old love transformed
the gunner. It sank in his ears, rioted
in hla blood and danced along every
nerve. She, of all women, was found
again, waa near him and there waa
still hope when he had supposed hope
was dead. He would live for her! He
would possess her yet.
But when? And then there fell a
c'oud. There was the navy, and he
had three years yet to serve and bis
ship was to cruise around the world!
It would take him away from her.
Would it? No! By all the gods, it
should not! He would desert first,
cost what It would. He would give uj
everything, risa everything, name
honor, manhood—everything, if necessary,
to be with the woman he loved.
The next morning Jack Masters
culled at the address Floretta had
given him. She cordially welcomed
him, as did also her relatives, the Oilsons.
There was a long drive, luncheon, an
afternoon matinee, dlrner and an evening
concert. It was late that night
before Jack got the opportunity he
longed for, the opportunity to talk
with Floretta. Drawing her to a sea*
beside him on the lawn of the Gilson
residence, he told her again of his
leve, of his repentance for the past, of
what he had suffered in atonement
and of his hope to win and be worthy
of her love.
""But Jack,"" said Floretta. ""your
heart may be right, but you are not
free. You belong to the navy.""
It stung him and he burst out with;
""Hang the navy! I'll quit It. It's Irksome,
anyway. ""I'll quit it and live
for you.""
8he looked at him in wide-eyed astonishment.
""Quit It,"" she echoed,
""quit the navy? That's desertion.
Jack. You certainly are beside yourself.""
""Lots of them do It,"" he said sullenly.
""That Is no Justification,"" she returned.
And then, after a moment, in
which neither spoke, she went on as
with a mind made up. ""Jack, you are
Impulsive as you always were, and
you lactv judgment, as you always did.
You have many good qualities'—she
put a hand on his shoulder--""but you
lack coolness and caution. You left
me when we were soon to be married,
left me in a mere pique, without
cause, to suffer humiliation and ridicule.
And now you want to come back
to me under circumstances that would
only cause added suffering and humiliation
to both of us. You certainly
know that desertion from the navy
or army is a serious crime, and one
severely punished. You would have
to change your name and completely
hide your Identity to escape punishment,
and that would be unbearable
humiliation to us both. If discovered
you would not oo*y suffer tmnrleoameat
hut yow would lose your dtlaa*
right* OK <****• < J""ou • cervaWr > don't
expect me to allow you to bring ail
this on yourself and me. do y o u r
The sailor could answer nothing.
He could only ait with hit head in hU
bands and with r brow wet with the
perspiration of mental agony.
Finally, Floretta went oh: ""Jack.a*,
sort your manhood; bear jour burden.
We all have them to hear. You are a
soldier. Be brave In the face of every
foe, even your own deelrea. Be true
to the promise you made your country
when you enlisted; be true to the flat*
I am glad to have seen you again,
glad to know you repent the wrong
you did me, to know that you still
love me. Jack, my heart is the same
aa it waa. I shall never love anyone
el BO. Go back to your ship and your
duty; serve but your time and then
come to see me with a clear conscience
and an honest name.""
There waa a struggle that lasted far
into the night, the old, old struggle be*
tween love and duty, between the
broad and the narrow way. Both the
man and the woman knew what waa
right and best, but the man waa
weak and It took the strength of both
to hold him true.
At last the sailor asked: ""Would It
be any harder, Flo, for you to wait for
me aa my wife than aa my sweetheart?""
And his heart almost stopped
beating aa he awaited for answer.
Looking far off Into the moon-lit
spaces of the night, she said slowly;
""Isn't that a good deal to ask. Jack?*
""I know it's a good deal, Flo,"" he admitted,
""but it would help me to carry
my load. Won't you do it. Flo?""
After a while the answer came, ""I
will help you. Jack.""
The next evening there waa an Impromptu
wedding in the parlor of the
Gilaon residence, followed by a delightful
dinner, and three weeks later
Floretta received the following telegram
from San Francisco:
""Transferred cruiser Chicago. Remain
on Pacific coast Promoted gun
captain. Two weeks furlough. Coming
to Los Angeles. Jack."" .
Library Suggestion.
The public library of every town, according
to Josiah H. BsntOJi, whose
experience in library management
gives him a right to speak, should
contain a town scrapbook, in which1
every article, paragraph and Item that
appeares in any newspaper In regard
to that municipality should be carefully
gathered. In that way a surprisingly
good local history will gradually
grow up. When the time cornea
for an actual written history, thta
material will be of great direct and
suggestive value. He would have the
librarian keep a scrapbook and either
through an arrangement with a press
clippings bureau or by personal attention
to it see that every such allusion
to the town finds its way into the res-,
ervoir. This is a suggestion of very
large merit. Those who adopt it will
have occasion to congratulate themselves
in the future upon their foresight,
and they will make many inquirers
and investigators of coming
years their debtors.
Goats for Underbrush.
The forestry department has turned
3G0 Angora goats on the mountain
slopes in the west in the hope that
they will keep the weeds from growing
on the firebreaks. This work has
been a serious expense and the goats
are an experiment.
Improving the Hen.
Farmern are learning how to coax
the American hen to make the most
of her opportunities. The agricultural
department reports that 78 per cent,
of all egga set last year were hatched,
and the mortality of hen-hatched
chickens was only 10¼ per cent.
Remedy Suggested.
Two million rats, some of them two
feet in length, are threatening to overrun
Summit, N. J. Instead of counting
and measuring the restive rodents
the board of health ought to kill a few.

Incident Shows Need of Visiting Some
Patients After Their Discharge

""I give you my child, 1 give you my

j$veu as she, spoke the-end came. Ignorance
6t a few fundamental taws
of health had triumphed over a mother's
love and quickly undone the
skilled work of the hospital. In and
out of our hospitals and dispensaries
every year pass thousands of children
in like conditions, where a little after
care and teaching would avert permanent
hurt or death. How much of
the splendid work of our hospitals Is
thus undone.
This instance, cited by Garnet Isabel
Pelton in the Survey shows the great

of patients at their homes after
their discharge to prevent the wasting
of life which results from snapping

The Mighty Traveler Goes Buoyantly Through a
Long and Trying Reception-Parade, Showing
Lively Interest in Everything American
The White Company Receives Unique Compliment
for the Sturdy Reliability of Its Steam Car
From Mr. Roosevelt and Family
Theodore Roosevelt and Party in White Steamer.)
After fifteen months' absence, exactly
as scheduled, Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt disembarked from the Kaiserin
Auguste Victoria, Saturday morning,
June 18, at 11 a. m. To the keen
disappointment of a large group of
newspaper correspondents, Mr. Roosevelt
absolutely refused, as heretofore,
to be interviewed or to talk on political
subjects, but his rapid fire of questions
showed the same virile interest
in public affairs as before.
If the welcome tendered by the
vast throng may be considered a
criterion upon which to base a ""return
from Elba,"" surely there was no
discordant note in the Immense reception-
parade, nor in the wildly clamorous
crowd which cheered at every
glimpse and hung on his very word.
The incuk'iifs of the day in New
York wen IT any, but perhaps none
better Illustrated the nervous energy
and vitality of the man, the near-mania
to be up-and-doing, which he has
brought back to us, than the discarding
of horses and carriages for the
swifter and more reliable automobiles.
The moment the Roosevelt family and
immediate party landed, they were
whisked away in White Steamers to
the home of Mrs. Douglas Robinson at
433 Fifth avenue. A little later, when
the procession reached the corner of
Fifty-ninth street and Fifth avenue,
Colonel Roosevelt again showed his
preference for the motor car in general
and the White cars in particular,
when he, Cornelius Vanderbilt and Collector
Loeb transferred from their carriage
to White Steamers, which were
in waiting *forxthem.
After luncheon at Mr. Robinson's
house, the entire party, including
Colonel Roosevelt, again entered White
cars and were driven to Long Island
City, where they were to take a special
train to the ex-President's home
at Oyster Bay.
The supremacy of the White cars
with the Roosevelt party was again
demonstrated on Sunday, when the
party was driven to church in the
White Steamers, and a group of some
forty prominent Rough Riders were
taken in a White Gasoline Truck to a
clambake a*- the Travers island clubhouse
of the New York Athletic Club.

A Versatile Garden.
The dwellers In a seaport town of
Massachusetts are justly proud of their
gardens. It remained for a visitor
from a tiny village '""way round the
Cape"" to Bay the first slightly disparaging
word of these gardens
""Isn't this beautiful?"" his hostess asked
as she paused under a rose arbor
and looked back over the stately ranks
of larkspur, mouk's hood; hollyhocks
and many other favorites.
""It's a handsome gardin—of Its
kind,"" said the visitor dispassionately,
'•""ftut It ain't quite up to the mark
when you consider our gardins.""
'-'Indeed!"" and the lady looked at
him, too amazed to be angry. ""What
sort of gardens have you, please?""
""Well,"" said her Cape visitor calm
iy, ""what we call a good gardin is one
where you can start oat with two biy
baskets and a hoe, step through the
flower gardin part, past the vegetables,
down to the water; dig your clams
fust, pick your sweet corn, lay your
posies on top o' that and hand the
whole lot over at the kitchen door
There's « our shore dinner and trim

Th« Wis* Woodpecker.
In California the woodpecker stores
acorns away, although he never eats
them. He bores several holes, differ
ing slightly in size, at the fall or tin*
year invariably in a pine tree. Then
he finds an acorn, which be adjusts to
one of the holes prepared for Its reception.
But he does not eat the
acorn, for, as a rule, he is not a vege
tarian. His object in storing away the
acorns exhibits foresight aud a know I
edge of results more akin to reason
than to tnstiuct. The succeeding win
ter the acorns remain Intact, but, be
coming saturated, are predisposed to
decay, when they are attacked by
maggots, which seem to delight in this
special food. It is then that the woodpecker
reaps the harvest his wisdom
has provided at a time when, the
ground being covered with snow, he
would experience difficulty otherwise
in obtaining suitable or palatable food.

Not Tending to Business.
A country doctor WHS recently called
upon to visit a patient some way
from uia office. Driving to where the
sick man lived, he tied his horse to u
tree lti front of the bouse and started
to walk across the ground. It happened
that work was in progress on a
new well, of which the doctor knew
nothing uutll he found himself sinking
Into the earth. He fell just far
enough to be unable to get out of the
hole unassisted and lustily yelled for
help.
When he was finally pulled up the
hired man remarked to him:
""1 say, doc, you bad no business
down there.""
""No; 1 don't think I had,"" replied
the doctor.
""Don't you know,"" continued the
j hired man, ""you ought leave the well
; alone and take care of the sick?""—

Inherited Dreams.
A medical scientist claims that many
dreams are really hereditary—that is
to say, they come down to us from ancestors.
Many persons have a dream
which they dream over and over
again. This and some others that are
frequent, according to the authority
referred to, are inherited. The doctor
observed, for instance, that a child ot
six years after an attack of typholrr
fever saw in its slumber a figure clad
in black, which advanced to the foot
of the bed and fixed upon him its
ahinlng eyes. It was found that the
father of the child had frequently
dreamed that dream, although he had
never mentioned It to his child. The
grandfather dreamed the same dream,
although he had told no one about i t
Evidently there is more than our philosophy
can fathom in ""the stuff that
dreams are made of.""

Sheriff's Staff
Wins Pay Hike
HOWELL - Due to the difficulty
of keeping the sheriffs
staff at full strength, because
deputies were continually quitting
to accept higher paying
jobs, the county board of supervisors
at the December
meeting unanimously agreed to
increase the starting pay for
deputies.
The supervisors were evidently
in a mellow mood because
they also granted the probate
court additional help and voted
an additional day-off for all
county employes by declaring
a holiday on New Year's eve.
The salary committee of the
supervisors opposed increasing
the deputies' starting pay, but
Supervisor Martin Lavan championed
the deputies' request.
He said: ""We find ourselves in
the position of competing in
the labor market, and we can't
expect to find first class, men
at bargain basement
Good deputies are hard to
•and we've got good deputies.
It will take only a small investment
(to save our county
talent and money. Since only
three men have a complaint, we
should consider our investment
in them, and raise the starting
pay of deputies,
LAvan's motion to raise the
storting poy of deputies to
14,918 was then passed unanimously
by the supervisors.
Livfcigston County Clerk Joseph
Ellis had prepared a report
showing a comparison of
wages for counties of comparable
size to Livingston. He
pointed out that while Livingston
deputies received less than
some of the larger surrounding
counties, that with the new wage
increase for starting deputies
Livingston toad the highest starting
and top pay of any county
of comparable size in Michigan.
The county's overworked probate
court heard welcome news
when the supervisors authorized
the hiring of an additional
social worker, at the recommenda'ion
of the State Welfare «j
Presert'W the court hns only
one juvenile officer, Carl Watt,
and his case load has been increasing
steadily for the past
several years. Th2 additional
social worker will be hired so
as to come under next year's
budget.
Chairman of Ihe finance conn*
miUee, Carl Rjulilu'a, n.{/j.ted
to Lhe supervisors that two of
*rr rounfv's deo^r'men's, the
Probate Court and the sheriff's
dcpartme ' h:d ex^c^dcd their
budgets this year. Twenty thousand
dollars was transferred to
the Proba'e Court and $7,000
was transferred to tho sheriff's
department.

From all words that I have

BeJn Hoa. Camp Ranger.
We might not get to see his
show. Since we are about 18
mites away from Camp Ranger.
The date is to be the 23rd
of this month.
We are to be in Di An close to
2 week*.
Before we left Camp Ranger.
We got one good night's sleep.
December 4th we went to
Dan Tieng, southeast of the
Michelin Rubber Plantation.
The largest rubber plantation,
m Vietnam. We went to help out
the Vietnamese 5th Division.
They were badly hit by the
Viet Cong in a Division size unit.
Our men had not changed their
clothes in 14 days. But the job
was well done.
Then we came here to Di An.
On the way to Di An, one of
Charlie Companies trucks was
hit with a hand grenade that
was thrown by a boy. We had
many badly wounded, but no
one was killed.
This boy is one of the hundreds
of children that stand by
the road and wave and say
""Okay"" or ""Hello,"" but there
was one that was ""Viet Cong.""
He had done much harm to us.
It seems that you just cannot
trust any of these Veitnamese,

us by the Viet Cong.
So wish us a Happy Combat

The Rail Situation
Nineteen sixty five has been a big
freight year for the nation's railroads
— the best since the war
year of 1944 and the fourth consecutive
year in which freight traffic
has shown a significant increase. It
has also been a year in which railroad
spencjittgv, for new plant and
equipment's expected to reach an
all-time high of some $1.6 billion.
The reasons for this encouraging
record have been listed bv the
president of the Association of American
Railroads. They include the
massive railroad modernization program;
the influence of many new
jreneral national prosneritv: the
services such as pisrjrvback. rack
cars and unit trains i and finally^
increased volume resulting from
lower freight charges. And, on the
average, these charges are still proincr
down — a fact which is of pocketbooV
interest to every consumer
and shipper in the land.
What are the prosr>eets for 1966?
The spokesman said that, if the economic
climate remains favorable
as iust about evervone expects,
railroadmen are confident that the
industry will continue its jrrowth
of traffic and service. Then he added
this all-important observation: MYet the rate of its progress will
depend heavily on 1966 developments
in the vital field of public
transportation policy — on government's
meeting long-standinsr needs
for equalitv in its treatment of all
transport modes."" And, he went on,
there are signs of progress, among
major domestic issues to be taken
up in the next session of Consress.
Let us all hope that this will happen
and that the railroads will
be relieved of the totally obsolete
laws and policies which now burden
them and impose unnecessary costs
on consumers everywhere. Fair
competition in transportation — instead
of excessive and stifling regulation
— is the way to the ultimate
in service at the lowest cost.
New Pork -
Old Wive's Tales
As a spokesman for the Amercan
Meat Institute puts it, the pork
industry has been doing some soulsearching.
In his words, ""In former
years, 'eating high on the hog*
was indeed ^a sign of prestige. Today,
'eating high on the hog' is
more apt to mean a steak than a
pork chop."" Up until a decade ago,
more pork was consumed in the United
States than any other meat.
But in latter years, beef has passed
it by.
Industry leaders have looked into
the reasons which have held back
pork consumption, and they are doing
something about them. Tor one
thing, pork has been considered too
fat. That is no longer true — the
meat-type hogs now produced are a
far cry from the fat, jowly animal
of the past. T?QY another, not enough
people have realized what dietitians
know — that pork, in addition
to providing high quality proteins
also is an excellent source of
essential vitamins and minerals.
For still another, many think that
pork is not easily digestible. That is
simply not so — extensive studies
have shown that pork is among the
most digestible of all foods.
Other beliefs, all mistaken, have
stood in the way of increased pork
consumption. To quote the spokesman
once more, 'Pork \& not only
an important part of our diet, it is
also an important part of our economy.
I believe that all home economics
teachers can perform a highly
• useful service by shattering for
their students sonu* of these old
wive** tales about pork and emphasize
the fascinating story of the
new pork — rts nutrition, wise of
preparation and its unique, flavor.""
That is A aound and constructive
suggestion.
Viet Nam Critics
Back in 1933 a college society in
England, the Oxford Union, had a
debate on whether to ""fight for
King and Country"" or not. The
meeting ended with a vote of 275
to 153 against fighting. Sir Winston
Churchill, who called the event ""evershameful,""
wrote in his History
of World War II: ""It was easy to
laugh off such an episode in England,
but in Germany, in Russia, in
Italy, in Japan, the idea of a decadent,
degenerate Britain took deep
root and swayed many calculations.""
Similar events are taking place
today in the United States. But,
now professors are the leading performers.
And, instead of debates,
the protests are called ""teach-ins.""
A ""teach-in"" is a campus rally
with maximum publicity, where
professors, both for and against
government policy, harangue students
on the situation in Viet Nam.
Two ""national teach-ins"" have occured.
Both received full television
coverage.
Only a handful of professors
across the country oppose our stand
in Viet Nam. But critics in the
""teach-ins"" have made a larger
noise and had a bigger effect than
one usually expects from such a
small minority.
Enemies of the America have
taken the ""teach-ins"" as indicators
of a deep and widespread discontent
in America over our policy in
Viet Nam. ""Ho Chi Minh, of North
Viet Nam, is encouraged by criticism
of United States policy heard
among the Western Allies and the
Americans themselves,"" according
to an interview with the Red leader
reported in Pravda. Perhaps, in
time, the protests may ""sway calculations,""
to use Sir Winston's
phrase.
In any case, China has long considered
us a ""paper tiger,"" ready
to retreat at the threat of a bomb.
And, to the Commie mentality, the
""teach-ins"" support this notion.
Unfortunately, Americans' minds
are ""swayed"" by the ""teach-ins,""
""too. Simply because many people
believe everything a professor says.
At the heart of all the antigovernment
.criticism is the idea that the
conflict in Viet Nam is a civil war,
a ""popular uprising,"" and no concern
of the United States.
The facts show the opposite.
The war is an invasion of Viet Nam
from the North. The Viet Cong has
followed the Red Chinese plan for
taking over a country to the letter.
They are controlled from Peking.
A Fear Returns
Fear of inflation has returned to
Washington and well it should.
Most prices are up, some sharply.
The commodity-price index is up
2.3 per cent over a year ago after
many years of relative stability. A
brief item in National Review by a
writer who signs himself CATO,
observes that there seems to be
little inclination in top government
circles to stabilize the economy by
stopping the multibillion dollar
programs which are the root cause
of inflation. So, he concludes, the
intention is to blame"" . . . every
price increase and every jump in
the cost of living index on business.
Now and then, labor will be slapped
across the wrist — but not too
often.""
If this turns out to be the case,
one of the businesses which will
be on the firing line is retailing.
The reason for that is obvious—it
is in the retail store that the consumer
buys his merchandise, and
it is in the retail store that he sees
the price tags boosted. So the retailer
is the easiest and most accessible
of targets.
Yet — natural and even inevitable
as this situation may be — it
is an example of a gross injustice.
The retailer is a victim of inflation,
not a cause of it. American mass
merchandising is one of the most
efficient and cost-conscious of all
enterprises. It operates on almost
unbelievably low profit margins.
The food chains, for instance, comimonly
earn, as net profit, as little
as a cent or a cent and a fraction
on each dollar of sales. Other kinds
of stores, whose problems are different,
earn onlv three or four
cents. Margins like these provide
no room at all for absorbing price
increases which are totally beyond
the sellers' control.
Unbridled government, spending,
continued deficits, excessive
wage costs, the cult of welfare statism
and the countless give-away
programs here and abroad are
forces that rtejrrade the dollar. And
every citizen, looking nervously toward
an uncertain future, should
know that.
FOR Jt PROSPEROUS 1966
ECONOMIC PROSPECTS-1966
The gross output of the American economy will
be S672 billion in 1963-about $43 billion higher
than 1964.
The National Association of Manufacturers' report
on economic prospects for next year states that
""comparable growth is attainable in 1966, which
would raise the gross national product for the year
to close to $715 billion.""
The NAM statement cautions that these are not
unconditional forecasts. '""Non-inflationary economic
growth is not a gift of the gods, simply to
be accepted and enjoyed. It is to be won or lost,
Spending on the degree of wisdom presented by
the national policies we pursue.""
The NAM report points out that we have emerged
from an ""under utilized"" economy to a ""fully utilized^
economy.
Our national policies must be oriented to assure
the accumulation of capital and know-how necessary
to make added manpower more productive at
a steadily accelerated pace, the report asserted. To
insure non-inflationary epnomic growth for 1966
and beyond we should:
• Make sure that the federal government refrains
from attempts to replace the marketplace as the
instrument for controlling prices and wages.
• Remove some of the special privileges and exemptions
which by law have been conferred on
labor unions. ,
• Use futurp opportunities or tax reduction in ways
which free funds for additional saving rather
than for additional consumption.
• Allow interest rates to find their own level, given
a national policy which permits the supply of
money and credit to grow only in proportion to
the growth in the economy.
The program for growth will effectively serve
both our national and international interest, the
report concluded.
TODAY'S INVESTOR
BY THOMAS E. OMARA
. Chairman, Board of Trutt«««
National Atiociation of Investment Club*
Q. Earlier this year I bought
Porex at $26.25. It Is now down
to |19. My broker said this to
because it has been affected by
tax selling. What does he mean?
A. Tax selling of securities
means disposal of stocks in order
to write off losses in filing
an income tax return.
Purex is an excellent illusteation
of a company whose
stock might undergo tax selling
at the end of the year. Investors
who bought Purex early in
the year found recently that the
stock was selling for 30 percent
less than they paid for ft.
If such investors see another
stock that they believe might
rise in value as quickly as Purex
will recover, they are quite
apt to sell, take their tax loss
on Purex and invest in the sec«
ond firm. There is, of course,
no guarantee that the other
stock will appreciate any faster
than Purex; nor indeed is there
any assurance that Purex itself
will recover from its present
slump. But the person who
makes a tax sale would reason
that by selling the stock he
would have a loss he could
apply* against this year's taxable
Income, and at the same
time acquire a security that has
as good a chance for advance
m price as the one he has sold.
Q. I own stocks m General
Mills and m Ford Motor Company
and am struck by how
close they are together in price
(both about 60) and yet how
much more Ford is earning this
year than Generafl Mills is. My
broker says Ford's earnings
wMl be about $6 a share this
year, while General Mills' will
be only about $2.SO. Why
shouldn't I sell General Mills
and cash in on the Ford profits?
A. Your thinking is good. But
what most investors are probably
thinking is that Ford is engaged
in a highly cyclical industry,
where income is likely
to fluctuate between rather extreme
highs and lows; whereas
the food industry, of which
General Mills is a member, is
much more stable, and is likely
to show slow growth and a steadier
income pattern.
Basically, the difference is between
""cyclical11 industries —
such as those that manufacture
hard goods, or ""postponaibles""
and those industries producing
items, such as foodstuffs, which
the public must buy regardless
of*whemer the economy is up
or down.
Automobile stocks are considered
cyclical. They customarily
sell at a relatively low price/
earnings ratio, since investors
have less confidence in their
ability to continue to maintain
the same earnings rate. Such
is the situation with Ford, wrth
a P/E ratio of 10 to 1. as compared
to General Mills' P / E
ratio of 21.
Auto stocks took especially
good this year, with auto production
hitting-^lTtime highs. Blit
let auto sales drop even slightly
and your General Mills stock
by comparison will look more
glamorous.

MICHIGAN
MIRROR
NO CENTS SENSE
Increased salary rates for
state agency heads probably
gained a few legislative votes
recently when Gus Harrison resigned
as director to take a
lower civil service post within
the corrections department.
The legislature has been asked
more than once by Gov.
George Romney to raise the
pay levels of the top state administrators.
Each request has
been turned down.
Romney contends it is inconsistent
with good/business practice
to have a situation where
the head of a department is
outranked in salary by one or
more of the employees under
him.
In the corrections instance,
Harrison as director was paid
$20,000 a year. He now will
take a civil service classified
position as deputy director for
field services which will pay
him more than $20,000 including
the fringe benefits and security
of the merit rating classification.
Harrison's new position is not
the only one in the department
which pays at this level. Also
to be considered is the fact
that the civil services rates will
be boosted again in July while
the director's salary is fixed
from year to year by legislative
dictate.
As director Harrison and other
department heads were subject
to ""the pleasure of the governor""
or a board or commission
empowered to hire and
fire unclassified administrators.
It was pointed out in the pleas
for administrative pay hikes
that the corrections case is not
an isolated one. The same thing
Is true in several other departments,
particularly where professionals
are needed below the
No. 1 spot.
Legislators have tended to
take a rather selfish attitude
on the matter. Their primary
concern seems to be with their
own financial rank: that if they
who write- the laws administered
by department heads are
not worth more than the present
pay, then the department
chiefs must certainly be well
enough paid now.
Loss of Harrison, and perhaps
others who have left these positions
without specifically citing
their reason, might bring tegis-,
Lators to the realization that
competent professional administrators
demand and probably
deserve higher salaries than
the people they supervise.
Interesting results are likely
to be seen in 1966 an another
aspect of the question of pay
rates for public servants.
This would be the individual
responses, as well as the collective
attitude of legislators
regarding their own worth.
A study is in process by a
special 12-mernber commission
appointed on a 50^50 basis by
the governor and the State
Senate. It has been asked to
determine what Michigan legislators
should be paid.
Legislators a r e prohibited
from raising their own salary
during a term. Since Senate
terms become four years long
in 1967, any pay change must
be passed next year or waft
until 1971 to be effective.
Likely the survey being taken
by the special commission will
provide only anonymous results
but it would probably be very
interesting to see how specific
individuals consider (themselves
in monetary value.
No doubt there will be legislators,
who spend a minimum
of time and effort on official
business, who think they should
be paid twice the present
$12,500. On the other side there
would be a number of very conscientious
men who spend long
hours on the job, consider
themselves public servants and
are happy with the going rate.
There are still others who work
hard and feel they deserve
more money.
The numerical strength of
these two extremes and the
variations between will give the
commission much of the informaition
on which it bases its
recommendations to the 1966
egisiaiture.
WINTER RISKS
Pre - holiday w a r m spells
should have provided a special
warning to Michigan residents
about the traditional winter
mveation activities.
Normally by this time of year
i^s sknting and fishing would
bo in full swing but 1his year is
considerably different except in
tho northernmost sections where
the cold hit hard, early and
retrained.
The long-awaited treat of ice
on lnkos and^ stroams can be
a very serious threat to the
livos of over-anxious youngsters
c.iuffh' up m the holiday-vacation
season
Stite Police warn that ice
may look thick nnd snfc enough
to walk nnd slide on even when
il may actually be too thin to
hold even a small child's
weight.
Parents must teach winter
safety as importantly as traffic
awareness. A child must be
cautioned against venturing on
ice before determining if it is
thick enough.
Ice on deep water should be
several inches thick, preferably
about four. Awareness of rescue
devices and methods in the
event of a breakthrough must
also be taught. Even with thick
ice, breaks may be caused fy
underwater currents.
Long branches, poles, ropes
or a ladder should be handy in
case the unexpected occurs.
This advice from Stale Police
holds true for adults as well as
children.
Winter drownings are not limited
to adventuresome* children
but frequently aiso include
hunters, fishermen and other
aduit outdoor fans who travel
over frozen lakes or streams.
Congressman
Wes Vivian
Reports
One of the high points for me
during the first session of the
89th Congress was the Second
Congressional District Community
Development Conference
I sponsored in Washington on
October 18th and 19th. We invited
elected officials from
throughout the Districts; over
60 attended me sessions; thirty
were accompanied by their
wives.
Early in the year I learned
that many village, city, county
and township officials were not
fully familiar with the various
Federal programs operating to
provide financial and technical
assistance to local units of government.
To make sure that our
officials in the Second District
were aware of the financial and
other assistance available to
them, we organized the conference.
Secretary of Agriculture Or
ville Freeman spoke to the con
ferees about Department of Ag
riculture programs devoted (to
the development of rural communities.
Secretary, of Labor U.
Willard Wirtz spoke at a luncheon,
about, 4he relationship m
local governments to the Federal
government. Undersecretary
of Health, Education and
Welfare Wilbur J. Cohen discussed
the programs administered
by his department, to help locaJ
communities build hospitals,
water and sewer treatment
plans, the Public Health Service
and other HEW programs.
Federal officials also described
the prospective programs of the
new Department of Housing and
Urban Development, the Small
Business Administration, the
Economic Development Administration,
and the Department
of the Interior.
The response to the Conference
has been very encouraging.
We are now working closely
with a number of official who
are concerned with providing
our citizens with a variety of
services. Village President William
Wall, of Dexter, is in the
process of applying for Federal
funds to supplement the funds
to be raised by the sale of bonds

Know Your
Michigan Law
Att'y General Frank J.
This is a public service article
explaining In general terms
a provision of Michigan law. Individuals
who wish to determine
the effect d! any law uoon their
private legal affairs should consult
a private attorney.
How many times have you
found various merchants using
the word 'wholesale' in their
advertising ? More often thannot
it is probably being used correctly.
Unfortunately, however, kthe
word 'wholesale* has been subjected
to abuse by a few unethical
merchants.
Michigan's legislature in a
1941 act found improper and
misleading the use of the word
that a seller of a product is
something other, than a retailer
of such product. The legislature
gave the following reasons far _
this conclusion:
'Consumers are misled Into
believing they are buying goods
at a substantial discount from
regular retail prices, when in
fact they are not; trade is
diverted from established retail
outlets offering various customer
services (such as free deliveries,
exchange privileges, and credit
facilities) ... to estavlishments
not offering equal services but
selling at substantially tne same;
price, to the detriment of the
consumer, who is deprived of
the benefit of such services
without receiving compensating
advantages....) '
The Michgan statute makes
it an unlawful trade practice for
any seller to claim he sells at
wholesale unless the sale Is
made to purchase for resale and
of the sales tax law. Therefore,
the two elements of a'wholesale*
transaction are, (1) thebuyerwill
resell the product and (2) no sales
tax need be paid on the transaction.
Furthermore, the statute prohibits
any form of advertising
(catalogs, exhibits, price tags,
etc.) 'quoting Drices in excess
of the prices at which such
goods, wares or merchandise are
regularly or customarily sold at
retail... so as to imply falsely
that the goods, wares or merchandise
are offered for sale at
a reduction from an indicated
regular price.'
As the wise consumer knows,
you do not get something for
nothing, and this includes socalled
'wholesale' or ' bargain
ju-iewL Bj^price checking the
same merchandise with reputable
MertJihant*; you ra^ fihd that the
•retail' prftTe Is the least ekpensive
in the hwig run.
Rail Flashers
For Hamburg HAMBURG — Although only
two trams a day pass over the
Grand Trunk Western railroad
tracks the crossing at Hamburg
road is so steep arid dangerous
that the Michigan Public Service
Commission has ordered
flashing light signals installed
at the crossing.
Peter V. Spivak, chairman of
the Public Service Commission,
said visibility of approaching
trains is badly obstructed.
The community of Hamburg
is unincorporated, therefore the
highway is under jurisdiction of
the Livingston County Road
Commission.
Because of a steep north-tosouth
hill at approach to the
crossing, Spivak said, in addition
to standard flashing light
signals an additional set of
flashing lights will be mounted
on a mast high enough to be
seen by motorists over the crest
of the hill.
Hamburg Township and Hamburg
Chamber of Commerce
representatives joined with those
of the railroad, county road
commission and PSC in a study
of the crossing. Measures within
the jurisdiction of local authorities
to improve visibility
at the crossing also received engineering
attention.
These included reduction of
an earth embankment, moving
of utility, poles, and the consideration
by private property
owners of alterations in a fence
and a sign which now blocks
clear vision.
Rail traffic through the community
totals only two trains in
24 hours, at 40 mph, but some
1,500 vehicles pass over the
track every day.
Let patience have its perfect
work.—(James 1:4)
Wo can avoid becoming impatient
with others if we keep
it) mimi the fact that Jesu^
Christ always exercised th«(
utmost in patience in Hi* asscM
eintion with His disviples ami
with all with whom He came
into eontaet. We should., in
rtftvi. be ""patient with the \\\-
tii'iuv of Christ.""

they proceeded to walk all

THE WHITMORE LAKE BRANCH of the Ann

Christmas, to the so-called emotionally disturbed
inmates of the Whitmore Lake Bovs Training1
School. Usually a bank is about the most conservatime
member of a business community, but for the
second year the bank cooperated in a program
which allowed the boys at the Boys Training School
to become more a nart of the community. Last year,
and aeain this Christmas the boys of the school
were invited to the bank where they designed the
Christmas display in the bank window. The window
was beautifully done, pine cone birds in a white

But in Chicago and Winnipeg it is still 1%""). In Saskatoon and Denver it is 1965.
In Frisco and Vancouver it is 1965. So where in this broad continent is the New Year
really born?
When it is born at all—it happens in men's own hearts!
Otherwise the Old Year goes on. And older years add not their blessings but their
dregs . . . as men grope for shreds of time to complete old patterns . . ; remnants of hope
to patch worn-out dreams.
But somewhere a heart speaks to God. In the quiet of a churchly sanctuary it recounts
the past with its failures, its defeats. And boldly it enquires into the future with its hope
and promise. That soul commits time and talent and treasure to the purposes of Jesus
Christ.
And the Father of All, who is not dock-watcher but soul-watcher, turns the page of
that calendar. For one soul at a time the New Year is born.

Let's Support The Dress Code
BY: G.M. II
""I don't agree with the Dress
Code Why can't we wear what
we want?""
That's all we ever seem to
hear when the subject of the
Dress Code is brought up. This
is really a puzzle. Why should
anyone not want to dress neatly?
It's a proven fact that the
nicer you look and dress, the
nicer you feel. It gives you more
self-confidence.
At one of the schools in our
league, there is absolutely no
dress code. Students are allowed
to wear tattered sweatshirtsinside
and out; worn, old blue
jeans, skirts very high above
the knees and shirt tails out.
The kids at that school look
like they're from a poverty region.
Not to have a Dress Code at
B.H.S. would be like walking
into an office building and seeing
the typists with short skirts,
hair in curlers or ratted high,
and blouses out. The men would
1K> wearing old I-shirts or tattered
sweat shirts, faded blue
jeans and no socks. You'd .say,
""How can they stand to be so
grubby,"" — But our high school
would be ]ust like that office
building • if we disposed of the
dress code.
Think about it. The kids in our

school look and dross like young
adults, which is what we are.
Let's give more support to the
Dress Code and the Student
Council.
BY MARK HARTMAN
I think the student council has
made the dress code within reason
for the students.
I have to admit that to see a
s:udent with his shirt out does
look awful sloppy. I offend the
dress code every once and
itwhile, I think everyone does in
the high school life.
I think a dress code is a real
good deal, but it should be similar
to o'.lier schools who already
have a dress code.
Our school for instance lias u
reasonable dress code. They
have been wondering why they
can't wear granny dresses. Well
if you ask me they don't look
adult like. What would you think
if every girl in the high school
wore them? I don't think it
would look too good.
I think our .school has a reasonable
dres.s code.
Library Club
Being Formed

Herbst, a library club is being

Sees TV Aimed
At 12 Year Olds
BY ERIE HURST
""I Spy,"" ""Honey West,"" and
•'Man from Uncle"" head the list
as popular T.V. shows this season.
Last Christmas a James
Bond movie was produced and
since then, these, snows have
been created to out do each
other. They all conjure up fantastic
little gadgets to catch
their enemies.
Recently there have been
waves of editorials concerned
with the value of these new sea-'
sonal shows. The newspapers
aim their writing toward 12
year old readers. T.V. producers
seem to aim theirs at 'something
less. The military shows depict
a ridiculous group of men that
makes you wonder if our nation
is actuary safe.
If there are any worthwhile
programs they are far and few
between. Specials are usually
quite good but come so late.
This years late movies are on
the whole very good but again
they do not begin until after
11:00 o'clock.
You'd think that T.V. producers
would realize that adults
also watch television and that
they enjoy a good program once
in awhile. Even teenagers and
Jr. High students express a desire
for more intellectual shows.
But until producers realize
this it looks liye we wil have to
put up with lower rate T.V.
shows aimed at the intelligence
level of 12 year olds.
New Year's
BY SHARON VOORHIS
In the United States, New
Year's Day is a national holiday,
a time when greeting of
""Happy New Year"" is exchanged,
and good resolutions
are made. On New Year's Eve
at midnight, meetings are held
in the churches. Many people
stay up until midnight just to
see the old year out and the
New Year come in. Generally
most people ring bells, blow
horns, and just be merry.
The first of January, now
New Years Day in almost all
countries was not adopted until
late in the sixteenth century as
the first day of the year.
Ij'.s been a truly glorious
year and w* are
Uruleful to all our loyal
friends uho helped""

is our wish to
continue to serif
you in the future.

seeing the sights they c?i-
,ioyt newcomers who arrived
from other sections to make
their homes in Che local area.
No figure is given, however,
for the number who may have
moved away in the period
Ttie net result is that 49 out
of every 100 people in Livingston
County changed their addresses
at least once in a period
of five years.
This proportion, 49 percent,
exceeded the mobility rate reported
for the nation generally,
47 percent.
In the East North Central
States, the rate was 46 percent
and, in Michigan, 44 percent.
The new government data on
the restless ^Americans points
to some of the social and economic
factors behind this restlessness.
It finds that much of it occurs
among persons between 20
and 24. That is when many
young people leave home to find
jobs, get married and set up
homes of their own
Much of the other shifting
about is attributed to the dissolution
of marriage People
who beconv separated, divorced
or widowed often move when
that happens.

Awning Windows Make
A Porch for All Seasons
Selecting the right windows
for the right job is half the
battle in good porch design.
A thoughtfully designed
porch—with versatile windows
that provide maximum ventilation
— lets a homeowner
adapt quickly to the weather
changes that can disrupt life
on the porch.
Many homeowners have discovered
an awning window of
ponderosa pine is ideal for an
enclosed porch. The window,
which is available in stock
sizes, is exceptionally easy to
open and close, provides maximum
ventilation, keeps out
rain and assures year-round
comfort.
Unlike many window types,
awning windows provide 100
percent ventilation. They can
also be opened and closed
quickly in series simply by
turning a rotor handle.
Awning windows were the
perfect solution for Mr. and
Mrs. Dale Hawkins, who built
a porch and patio addition to
their New Jersey home overlooking
a naturally wooded lot.
Mr. and Mrs. Hawkins, who
had given up their home at the
seashore, greatly missed, having
their own porch. When
they decided to build a porch
on their house, they wanted
one that could be used as an
extra room all year.
The porch was added by
breaking through a dining
room wall that formerly contained
a window. Awning
wood window units were installed
in all three exterior
walls of the porch. The walls
were paneled with wood.
Ponderosa pine was selected
for the windows because the
wood is a natural insulating
material and provides maximum
comfort in winter, when
the porch is heated.
A patio, leading off the
porch, completes the outdoor
living project. Patio furniture,
a vintage park bench and appropriate
landscaping supplied
the finishing touches.
Now Mr. and Mrs. Hawkins
have a porch that doubles as a
family room, or as a sitting
room when guests drop in.
They can now enjoy their
home more completely, both
outdoors and indoors, and in*
BEFORE: Back yard of home
offered little protection from
sun.

No Need to Cool
Food in Advance
Many women mistakenly
insist on cooling food before
putting it into the refrigerator-
freezer, even though food
keeps best when it is refrigerated
promptly.
In the days of iceboxes,
warm food in the icebox
caused the ice to melt more
quickly. Later, when electric
refrigeration came onto the
scene, women still hesitated
storing a hot turkey in the
refrigerator, in the belief it
would steam up the interior of
the appliance and cause frost
to form.
Today, with the advent of
no-frost refrigerator-freezers,
food specialists advise homem
a k e r s t o refrigerate or
freeze food, whether warm or
cold, right away for maximum
freshness and flavor.

it can do real damage. So protect

a^ainst the La^le^, Mr I unl
j^'ave the bo\s a pre-^am- talk
in ihe locker room, this was a
first. Also he was on the side
lines all during the j,rame, hob-
; around on his crutch, patthe
txiys and ^ivirm them a
word of encouragement and confidriiee
Well, you .saw what happened,
they scored the highest
points for any flame all season.
Now maybe this wasn't all
mil Ford's doings but it is sure
worih trying a«ain, nnd again,
and a«ain. 'After all it is understandable
that the players would
lie sparked by Bill Ford's interest
Who wouldn't be impressed
by one of the ^reat Ford
dynasty members, even a Sunday
Pro foul ball hero. The bi«
point i*. it only takes something
like this to make a homogeneuus
whole out of an otherwise
lot of separate parts. And tins
""oneness"" is what the Lions
have lacked, except in their defensive
units and the reason they
don't lack it there Ls because
Ihe men forming the guts of the
defense have played together
for almost eight years. They
work together, they know how
to cover for each other in a
play where the offensive unit
opposile. ha>s screwed up their
defensive signals on a play
from scrimmage. It is almost
instinctive that each knows
v/hut the other will do under a
:;JVL:I circumstance. This is
team work and real esprit dc
corps. The offnisc is not so
fortunate.
Did you know, though, that
l'luiu has bei ti hit behind tInline
fewgr times than any other
quarterback m the league exicpl
Hrody? This speaks well
for the offensive bloc king, because
you can't .say Plum is a
scrambler. E\(> ;-: !"";> :.. , '.!;•

State to Reroute
Campus Highway
Residents of Brighton and
Howell who traveled to Lansing
will soon find the road through
East Lansing a detour because
of the state highway department's
proposal to relocate old
Grand River through the Michigan
State University campus.
Cost of the 3.6-mile project
is estimated at $5.9 million.
The proposed describes construction
of a limited-accesa
highway north of and parallel
to the Grand Trunk Western
railroad track from a point on
existing M43 one-half mile ea»t
of Park Lane Rd. across the
University campus to an interchange
with the Pine Tree Connector
and the future 1496.
The project will begin on the
east at a new three-lane bridge
to be constructed to carry eastbound
traffic. The present
bridge will be retained to carry
westbound traffic.
The section of highway from
the new bridge to Hagadorn Rd.
will be four-lane divided. From
Hagadorn Rd. to the Pine Tree
Connector the highway will be
six-lane divided and will be depressed
between diamond interchanges
at Bogue St. and Red
Cedar Rd.
Both Bogue St. and Red Cedar
Rd. will be extended through
\i)v new interchanges.
Farm Lane will cross the free*
way on an overpass.
The proposed construction is
par; of >i highway program to
relieve congestion on Grand
Kiv.r Ave., which is expected
""> •••rr.-i^ 150 percent in the
. J-S from the pres*
•v of 20,000 cars a day
• cars a day.
relocation also will serve
as an eastern connection to the
City of Lansing and provide access
to the Interstate system
