The pulpit and pews alike were filled with inspiration from that great source from which inspiration comes. Worship God; he who forgets to pray, bids not himself goodmorrow or good-day. We have never known a man who habitually and on principle absented himself from the public worship of God, who did not sooner or later bring sorrow upon himself or his family. What greater calamity can befall a nation than to loose its true and heart-felt worship of the true and living God. Dear reader, words may fly up and thoughts remain below; words, without thonghts, never heavenword go.

Pathetic Case Not so long ago the writer heard a littlo parting talk between a married couple. It wasn't a case of eavesdropping, because the conversation was right, there to be necessarily overheard. The man was over forty and his wife was pretty close to forty herself, "Well, you look pretty Rood to me, now that you're hiking off, young feller," he said to her. sort of sneaking his hand over so's to get hold of hers. "Look pretty middling good to me any old time, when it comes to that, It begins to look to me that I'm mashed f>i you beyond all redemption. If it does you any good to have your man make that kind of a fool schoolboy speech after all our years at the matrimony thing, why, you're welcome, kid, that's all." "Well, I'll take mine out in thinking, dear," she replied, "and I'll write all of my foolish things in my letter*. Now, you're honestly going to remember to feed the canary every day, aren't voirf* The maid can attend to cleaning the cage, but you yournelf Will feed little DicMe every now won't you? Promise me again, so I run feel comfy about it.'- "Sure, I'll feed the bird. Sny, I've juHt, boon noticing those hazel eyes of yours. You've sure got 'em all skinned forty ways from the jack when it comes to the brown lamps, nnd—" "Such silliness!" she interrupted him, looking pleased. "Now, dearie, listen. You won't be getting poor old Melinda to cook you those dreadful messes—things with horrid cheese in them—that you're so crazy over and t h a t makn you sick, will you? Promise mo solemnly once again, now, won't you?" "Nixon cheesy things, as solemn as you want, it," aald he. "Going to be a mighty dreary, dismal old imitation of a flat without you in it, sis; and don't you ever forget that.

"Woodman, Spare That Tree" is a highly idealised version of an attempt, at applied conservation. The principal character comes upon a man who la chopping down a tree, and says to him: "Don't eirt down that tree." "What?" asks the lumberman. "You let that tree alone. T knew it when I was a little boy. I used to play mumblepeg under it and I have a sentimental attachment for it, so I would kindly request that you let it stand as it is." "Do you'own this timberland?" "No. but I—" "Well, don't pull any of that Glfford Plnchot talk around here, young feller. The big road for yours, see?" Which shows us that conservation and conversation are entirely different propositions. Two of a Kind. "Must be something wrong with the organ bellows," whispered the man to his wife at church.

"When my husband won't huy me what I want," confides the first woman, "I cry. Then he will agree that I may have it, juet to get me to stop crying." "I have a better plan than that." says the second woman. "When my husband thinks I shouldn't have a new hat or dress, I smile. That works better than tears In my case." "But." sweetly says tho first woman, "my hiiRband thinks I am so pretty when I smile that he will not do anything to get me to stop." After thinking the matter over that evening the second woman concludes that the first is a hateful thing. Discrest Bird. "Sing, sweet bir-r-rd!

It was a favorite place for summer camping, and there were no restrictions except as to the fishing. Jt had been stocked with carp as a fad of the aunt "Word was diepatched to the man who acted as watchdog, and in two or three days subsequently he reported that a summons had been issued for the guilty and defiant party, and he named the date when the trial was to come off before the justice of the peace in the village. Mr. Attorney Franklin urew a mental picture of a bearded ruffian with «. political pull who was setting eounlaw at defiance and denuding Placid of its carp in apite of all and protests, and he at once led up the law ' ~ trespass and fair himself familiar with it.

He didn't see the black-bearded rnfllan among the crowd, but of course he was there. There were men, the lawyer told the court, who respected the law, and there were"others who deemed themselves superior to It. This was a ease where a man, coming from a city notorious for tts graft and "pulls," was deliberately and defiantly trampling1 the law under foot. He would bring forward witnesses to prove that the man had not only seen the signs of "No trespass,*' but had deliberately and defiantly-—-" Here there was some tttteriug and giggling in the room, aud his honor rapped for order. "Yee, this man—this ruffian, who had been accustomed to trample on the law " More giggling and applause. '•You should keep to the case," kind 3y advised the court. "Thanks. There were the signs of 'no trespass,' and yet this man -" "What man!" asked the opposing counsel, while many spectators laughed. "The guilty party, si.1," replied Paul with all proper austerity. "But let me explain that there is no man under summons," said his honor. "Can you be thinkiri" of another case?'' There was more laughter, and poor Paul realized that something had happened to the machinery to stop the boat. "It's a woman!" whispered a man behind him. "its. a girl," whispered another. "lis ' that sitaving-looking girl in front of you," whispered a third. "Your honor, I was led to believe that a ruffian had been trampling on the law," said Paul, as he looked around in a helpless way. "No. The summons was for Miss Katherine Lacy, and she's here in court. I haven't heard anything of a ruffian." "But—'but " persisted Paul, as he Haw the defendant at last and noted the fact that she was one of the best looking girls he had even seen. "My client pleads not guilty," said the opposing counsel. "She will admit being on the lake in a boat at various times, and of fishing for fish, but Bhe denies catching any. She also denies that she Is a ruffian. If my learned brother on the other aide wishes to go ahead with the case——" "But how can I?" asked Paul in a helpless way. "I prepared to prosecute a black-bearded ruffian who was trampling the law under foot, but here t find "A young lady who hasn't been trampling," finished his honor. "I think it would be well for the complainant and defendant to walk over to that window together and see if some amicable understanding cannot be arrived at." Miss Lacy rose up with mischief in her eyes and walkfd, and the blushing young attorney could do no less than follow her. There wasn't much conversation after reaching the windown. He said: "My dear Miss Lacy I hep; your pardon a thousand times over." "Don't mention it;." "If I had known " "But you didn't." "But you may catch every flfh in the lake." "Thanks." All that was left was to withdraw d a r>lea *n the jurypart.

The Jury must not. look at the value of the carp, but at the principle of the thing, and he would leave the case in their hands, feeling that justice would prevail in the land. The aunt heard the plea when It bad been trimmed down and got into shape, and;she fervently exclaimed: "Paul, that will be one of ihe greatest pleas of the decade!

The colt should have a roomy bo* stall. It you have two colts, keep them together when the mares art and hay. at work, as there is no animal that likes company better than a colt, say* a writer in American Cultivator. As they get older see taat they have plenty of good clover hay and bright oats to eat. It is well to have a little pasture near the barn and let them into this when the mares are at work. Have this fenced with good, woven wire, high enough so they cannot get their heads over it. The pastrue should be arranged so they can run into the bam to get away from the flies. Leave the cover to the oak box open, so they can help themselves. Keep a pall of water in the stall where they can reach it. After a little you can mix skim milk with the water, later give them clear skim milk, but let them have what water they want at all times. Some colts will take skim milk at once, but bo careful and not give them loo much to commence with, say two quarts at first, and asthey get accustomed to it you can gt»e them five or six quarts twice a dayl This you can feed all winter, and they will go on to pasture in the spring in fine shape,.

The amount of money lost by farmers every year through lack of interest or knowledge of the means to dispose of unmarketable apples has never been estimated, That is one of the big wastes ou every farm where many apples are Rrown and where commercial fruit raising is made the main feature of the farm. We always;stable all of our colts at night, but they bare a roomy yard or Held to run in In the day time, so that they get pleat y of exercise. We always break our colts to bar* nes before they are three years old. Get them used to the harness before spcixtg work begins. Work them only half a day at a time to commence with, and see that their collars and harness fit them well. When the weather gets warm clip your colts. By so doing you may avoid sore shoulders, tf a colt gets a sore shoulder, let aim rest a few days and heal it up. If you continue to work him and the sore keeps getting worse, you may have a shoulder that will always bother you when he is put to hard work.

The first advantage gained by working, up unmarketable fruit -into cider is that it is converted into a condensed and portable form convenient for handling and storing. The second object Is to convert this valuable portion of the crop into a marketable commodity, which would otherwise be wasted and lost. The. cost, the time and labor of working up several hundred bushels of apples into cider is only nominal as compared with the value of the cider itself if properly handled. Apples that have been bruised iu handling are imperfectly developed, too small and gnarled apples which would not be worth the cost of packing, can be utilired in this manner and the orehardist's revenue j largely enhanced.

HILL IS DEAD, Workmen Begin Clearing Away Debris for Erection of N«*w Buildings— Fire Started in Store Room. The mammorh plant mills, docli and warehouses of the 'United States Gypsum Co., at Alabaster, Mich.. burned to the sround at a lost; of over $125,000. The bbjue started iu the basement of the s t o r e ' r o o m and the fire protection afforded in the community was inadequate to stop the spread of the flames through the building. Five hums later the entire acreage of the company was burned to the ground. The owning company controls a big ledge of alabaster uot yet nearly exhausted, and while ibe embers of part of the ruins were still glowing that, portion of the debris which hud cooled sufficiently to he handled was being cleared away by workmen in readiness for the rebuilding of t h e plant. Mr. Robinson, manager of t h e company, say6 a new plant will be running again within si* months. The mills have a dally capacity of over u,000 barrels of gypsum. Alabaster, containing about 1,000 inhabitants, situated about seven miles from Tawas City, is practically dependent on the big mills for existence. There were only 10 employes in the building when the fire started, aud all escaped In safety. The origin has not been determined. Hcd 6e«n ill But a Few Days With » Bilious Attack. • David U. Hill, ex-Ualted States senator and fonoasr goveraor of New York, died suddenly at Wolfert's Boost, his country home. About two weeks ago Mr. Hill was seined with a bilious attack while at his law office in New York, and al- . though his condition was not cont Bldeml serious at the time his physician advised him to remain at home for a few days until he recovered. A cold developed aud a few days later alarming reports of his condition were circulated. These reports, however, were denied by frieuds; in tact, , t h e senator appeared to be on the I road to recovery when he suffered a sinking spell, which resulted in his death. David Bennett Hill mas one of the most picturesque and, tor a large portion of his life, one of the most influential figures iu American politics. Nearly a third of his years were spent Jn public office, and throughout several administrations he occupied a position in the national councils of the Democratic party very similar to that held by Tom Piatt in the Republican household, except that Hill was less a boss than a leader and trusted adviser. Wife to Testify to Save Green. J. Howard Crcen, Battle Creek lawyer, club man and philanthropist, will have to stay iu jail at Los Angeles until he is tried in the superior court for the mnrder of Prof. Thomas D. Sic id mo re, of Rio Grande City. Green was bound over by Police Judge Williams and held without bail. Mrs. Greeu was pret'snt, but no words or glances were exchanged bctw* en husband and wife. However, Mrs. Green announced that she would be a witness iu her husband's defense, though the man he killed had wooed her for 30 years, having been a schooltime sweetheart whom marriage did not discourage. The defense was not outlined, but Skidmore's love letter, addressed to Mrs. Green its "the litriit of riy life and wife of my heart." was put in mute evidence. I: Is said the defence is holding back its trump card, which will probably be a confession b> Mrs. Green of illicit relations with SV:idmore. French Strike Is Over.

As usual, the little man was busy with some abstruse mental problem. "The idea is this," he was saying, his brows knitted in thought, "H" a left-handed man, standing in the position of the man in the picture, should jump from a car. would he be likely to sprain his right ankle? When a right-handed man prepares for a leap of that kind, my theory is that be would hold on with his right hand, and alight at the proper time, on his right foot. Of course " "I Imagine, although J don't know,'' interrupted McKnight, "that a man •*rther ambidextrous or one-armed, jumping from the Wasliingtou Flier, would be more likely to land on his head." "Anyhow." I interposed, "what difference does it make whether Sullivan uaed one hand or the other? One pair of handcuffs will put both hands out of commission." As usual when one of his pet theories was attacked, llouiikiss looked aggrieved. "My dear sir," he expostulated, "don't you understand what bearing this has on the case? How was the murdered man lying when he was found?" • "OH his back," -IJ said promptly, "head tpw*rd the engine." "Wry well," he retorted, "and what then? Your heart lies tinder your fifth intercostal space, and to reach it a right-handed blow would have struck HtheT'down or dlrccUjf in. "WiT.," gentlemen, the point of entrance for the stiletto wan below the heart, striking up! Aa Harrington lay with his head toward the engine, a person in the aisle must have used the left hand." McKnight's eyes sought mine and he winked at me solemnly as I unostentatiously, transferred the hat 1 was earrylng to my right, hand. Long fl training has largely counterbalanced j ! heredity in ray case, but I still pitch j jj hall, play tennis and carve with my | loft hand. Hut Hotchkiss was too busy j with his theories to notice me. j We were only just in time for our 1 > train hack to Baltimore, but Mc- Knight took advantage of a second's delay to shake the station agent warmly by the hand. "I want to express my admiration for you," he said beamingly. "Ability of your order is thrown away here. You should have been a city policeman, my friend." Tha agent looked a trifle uncertain. 'The young lady was the one who told me to keep still," ho said. McKnight glanced at me, gave the agent's hand a final shake, and rllmbed on board. Rut I knew perfectly that he had guessed the reason for my delay. He was very silent on the way offlc. Hotchkiss, too, had Httle to Ha was reading over his notes tent.ly. stopping now and then to shake a penciled addition. Just before wa left the train Richey turned t o mo.

Mt W M late when we got to Washington. One of Mrs. Klopton's small tyrannies was exacting punctuality at meals, and, Ifke several other things, 1 pwipeotftd it. There are always Horfl* ooacessiontTthat should be made in return for- faithful service. So, aa my dinner hour of seven waa long past, McKnight and I went to a little reataurant downtown where they i a v a a very decent way of fixing chicken a la King. Hotchkiss had da> parted, esaaotoicattr bent, for a small hotel wowre b* itved on toe Anwriean Vlan. ging a perspiring waiter, a proceeding so exactly to- McKnight s taste that he insisted on going over to Join them. But their table was full, and somehow that kind of fun had lost Us poirit for "me. Not far from us a very stout, middle- aged man, apoplectic with the heat, was elephantinely jolly for the benefit of a bored-looking girl across the table trom him, and ut the next table a..newspaper woman ate alone, the last edition propped agaiust the wuter bottle before her, her hat. for coolness, on the corner of the t-.ible. It was a motley Itoheuiian crowd- I looked over the room casually, mV ^ • V n t U M r tfct* sal* I t ' 'XcKblBht* eyebrows went up and be looked with increased Interest at the black-gowned figure/' - '•— ' } * ' - " I ate little after that. The actuation was rather bad tot toe, I began to see. Here was a woman who could, if she wished, and had any motive for so doing, put me in jail under a capital charge. A word from her to the police, and polite surveillance would become active interference. Then, too, she could say that she had seen me. Just after the wreck, with a young woman from tho murdered man's car, and thus probably bring Alison West into the case. It is not surprising, then, that I ate little. The woman across seemed in no hurry to go. She loitered over a demi-tasse, and that finished, sat with her elbow on tbe table, her chin in her hand, looking darkly at the changing groups in tbe room. The fun at the table where the college boys sat began to grow a little noisy; the fat man, now a purplish shade, ambled away behind hJ3 slim companion; the newspaper woman pinned on her business-like hat' and stalked out. Still the woman at the next table waited. It was a relief when the meal was over. We got our bats and were about to leave tbe room, when a waiter touched me on tbe arm. "I beg your pardon, sir," he said, "but the lady at tbe table near tbe window, the lady in black, sir, would like to speak to you." I looked down between the rows of tables to where the woman sat alone, her chin still resting on her hand, her black eyes still insolently staring, this time at me. "I'll have to go." I said to McKnight hurriedly. "Shu knows all about that affair and she'd be a bad enemy." "1 don't like her lamps." McKnight while McKnight ordered the meal. observed, after a glance at bee. •'Het- Then my attention was attracted to 1 ter jolly her a little, tlood-by the table next to ours.

The Notes and a Bargain. I went back slowly to wli MC the woman sat alone. She smiled rather oddly as 1 drew near, and pointed to tiie chair Bronson had vacated. "Sit down, Mr. Blakeley,' she said, "I am going to take a few minutes of vour valuable time." "I Beg Your Pardon, Sir; the Lady in Black, Sir, Would Like to Speak to You." list as if he read from it. "Who's the woman?" "Search me," I replied, in the same way. When the chicken came, T still found myself gazing now and then at the abstracted couple near me. Evidently the subject of conversation was unpleasant. Bronson was eating littlo, the woman not at all. Finally he got up. pushed his chair back noisily, thrust a bill at the waiter and stalked out. The woman sat still for a moment; then, with an apparent resolution to make the best of it, she began slowly to eat the meal before her. But the quarrel had taken away her appetite, for the mixture In our chafing dish was hardly ready to serve before she pushed her chair back a little and looked around the room. I caught my first glimpse of her face then, and I confess it startled mo. It was the tall, stately woman of the Ontario, the woman I had last seen cowering beside the road, rolling pebbles in her hand, blood streaming from a cut over her eye. I could see the scar now. a little affair, about an inch long, gleaming red through its layers of powder. And then, quite unexpectedly, she turned aad looked directly at me. "Certainly." I sat. down opposite her and glanced at a cuckoo nloek on the wail, "I am sorry, but. J have only a few minutes. If you—" She laughed a little, not very pleasantly, and opening a small black fan covered with spangles, waved it slowly "The fact is," she said, "I think we are about to make a bargain," "A bargain?" I asked incredulously "You have a second advantage of me. You Know my name"—I paused suggestively and she took the cue. "I am Mrs. Conway," she said, and filcked a crumb off the table with an overmanicured finger. The name wns scarcely a surprise I had already surmised that this might be the woman whom rumor credited as being Bronson's commonlaw wife. Rumor, I remembered, had said other things even less pleasant, things which had been brought, out ut Bronson's arrest for forgery "We met last under less fortunate circumstances," she was saying. I have been fit for nothing since that terrible day. And you—you bad a broken arm, I think." "I still have it." I said, with a lame attempt at jocularity; "but to have oscaped at all was a miracle. We have much, indeed, to be thankful for." "I suppose we have." sbe said carelessly, "although sometimes !• doubt After a minute's uncertainty, shel tt." She was looking somberly tobowed, letting her eyes rest on mine with a calmly insolent stare. She "1 want to tktak soma things over," J glanced at McKnight for a moment, ward the door through which her late companion had made his exit. "Yon sent for me—" 1 said. T e a , I sent for yoo." an* rousea hsrt^tf^.and sat ««Pt. vXow^Mr. Blaktiey, hare you found those papers r "The papers? What papers?" I psrried I deeded- tisoe to thiak. "Mr. Blakaley," she ssrM quie+ry, "1 think- we can lay aside all subterfuge. In tbe first place let me refresh your mind about a few things. The Pittsburs; police are looking for the survivors of the car Ontario; there are three that I know of—yourself, the youu* woman with whom you left tbe scene of the wreck, and myself. The wreck, you will admit, was a fortunate one for you." 1 nodded without speaking. "At tbe time of the collision you were in rather a hole," she went on, looking at me with a disagreeable smile. "You were, if 1 remember, accused of a rat bur atrocious crime. There was a lot of corroborative evidence, was there not? I *evm to remember a dirk and the murdered man's pocket-book in your possession, and a few other things that were— well, rather unpleasant." I was thrown a bit off my guard. **You remember, also," I said quickly, "that a man disappeared from the car, talking my clothes, papers and everything." 'T remember that you said so." Her tone was quietly insulting, and 1 bit my lip at having been caught. It was no time to make a defense. "You have missed one calculation," I said coldly, "and that i s the discovery of the man who left the train.'" "You have found him?" She bent forward, and again I regretted my hasty speech. "I knew it; I said so." "We are going to find him," I asserted, with a confidence I did not feel. "We can produce at any time proof that a man left the Flier a few miles beyond the wreck. And we can find him, I am positive." "But you have not found him yet?" She was clearly disappointed. "Well, so be it. Xow for our bargain. You will admit that I am no fool." I made no such admission, and she smiled mockingly. "How flattering you are'" she salt'.. 'Very well. Xow for the premises. You take to Tittsburg four notes held by the Mechanics' national bank, to have Mr. Cilmore. who is ill, declare his indorsement of them forged. "On the journey back to Pittsburg two things happen to you: You lose your clothing, your valise and your papers, including the notes, and you are accused of murder. In fact, Mr. Blakeley. the circumstances were most singular, and the evidence—well, almost conclusive." I was completely at her mercy, but I gnawed my lip with irritation. "Now for the bargain." She leaned over and lowered her voice. "A fair exchange, yon know. The minute you put those four notes in my hand— that minute the blow to my head has caused complete lorgetfulness as to the events of that awful morning. I am the only witness, and I will be silent. I)o you understand? They will call off their dogs." My head was buzziDg with the strangeness of the idea. "But," I said, striving to gain time, 'I haven't the notes. I can't give you what 1 haven't got." "You have had the case continued," she said sharply. "You expect to find them. Another thing," she added slowly, watching my face, "if you don't get them soon, Bronson will have them. They have been offered to him already, but at a prohibitive price." "Hut," I said, bewildered, "what is your object in coming to me? If Bronson will get them anyhow-—" She shut her fan with a click and her face was not particularly pleasant to look at. "You are dense," she said insolentiv "1 want those papers—for myself, not for Andy Bronson." "Then the idea is," I said, ignoring her tone, "that you think you have me in a hole, and that if I find those paners and give them to you you will let me out. As I understand it, our friend Bronson, under those circumstances, will also he in a hole." She nodded. 'The notes would be of no use to you for a limited length of time," I went, on, watching her narrowly. "If they are not turned over to the state's attorney within a reasonable time there will have to be a nolle pros—that Is, the case will simply be dropped for lack of evidence." "A week would answer, 1 think," she said slowly. "You will do it, then." T laughed, although I was nor espec ially cheerfnl. "No, I'll not do it. T rspprt to come across the notes any time now, and I expect, just as certainly to turn them over to the state's attorney when I get them." She got. up suddenly, pushing her chair hack with a noiay grating sound that turned many eyes toward us. "You're more of a iool thnn T thought yon," she sneered, and left mc at. the table.

There are more ducks in China than in all the rest of the world. Th*ir voices are a familiar sound in esSjpjT town and country spot of the aati coast and the interior of tho vast eifj» pire. Even in the large Cities ducks abound. They dodge between the coolies' legs. They flit squawking out of the way of the horses. Their Indignant quack will not unseldom drown the roar of urban commerce. Children herd ducks on every road, on every pond, on every farm, on I every river. There 1» no backyard I without its duckhouse. There la no 1 boat, little or great, without its duck quarters. AH over the land there are great duck hatching establishments, many of them of a capacity huge enough to produce 50,MO young ducks every year. Duck among the Chinese Is a staple delicacy, it Is salted and smoked like ham or beef. F i r m of Purpose.

There are few candidates for office in whom the opposition cannot pick some flaw, bnt in the case of Mr. Judson there is nothing to aay bnt words of praise. He has always been elected by larg* majorities and he is very popular with all classes of people. As a servant of the township in the six years as treasurer and nine years as supervisor he has performed his duties to the absolute satiafactiou of all concerned iu both parties.

Getting a Reputation. There is a desk in the senate particularly couveuient as a place from which to make ypeechey. It is next to the aisle and almost in t h e center of the chamber, and affords un opportunity for the Hpeaker to make everybody hear. At lease u dozen senators, according to the Washington correspondent of the St. Louis Star, have borrowed this desk when they had speciul utterances to deliver to the senate. This led, not long ago, to a mild protest fiom its legitimate occupant. "I am perfectly willing to give up my desk," »aid he, "but I am afraid people will think that the s a m e man is talking all the time. I don't want to get the reputatiou of constantly filling tho senate with words."— Youth's Companion. Chicago & Al&n "The Only Way" , TEXAS .

T H E F I R 8 T TASTE Learned to Drink Coffee When a Baby* If parents realized the fact that coffee contains a drug—caffeine—which U especially harmful to children, they would doubtless hesitate before giving t h e babies coffee to drink. "When I was a child In my mother's arms and first began to nibble things at the table, mother used to give me sips of coffee. As my parents used coffee exclusively at meals I never knew there was anything to drink but coITee and water. "And so I contracted the coffee habit early. I remember when quite young the continual use of coffee tie affected my parents that they tried Toasting wheat and barley, then ground it in the coffee-mill, as a substitute for coffee. "But it did not taste right and they went back to coffee again. That was Icmg before Postum was ever heard of. I continued to use coffee until I vtaM 27, and when I got Into offk* work, I began to have nervous spells. Especially after breakfast I was eo nervous I could scarcely attend to m7 •correspondence.

H ATS with wide, or moderately wide brims, have been much the same as to their brim outlines for several Ecasons. but variations have been evident in crowns. The possessor of a good velvet hat feels that it should do eervice for two or even three reasons and last year'H hat with a graceful brim and a new upto- date crown gives as much satisfaction, if not a little more, to the home economist, an «pick and spun new millinery. The cleverness of the milliner is put to the test, to either replace the old crown with a new one, or put the trimming on the hat so that the outline of the old crown In concealed or changed. AH it happens the task is not so difficult this season because puffed crowns arc much favored, that in, crowns made of puffs of silk or velvet. Furthermore, Uiminlng pieces, especially fancy feathers, are large and they conceal the top of the 'hat almost entirely. An example of what may be done wiili a velvet hat, having a wide brjw and amall crown, is shown here. Two lengths of velvet, In two colors, each threc-fourthB of a yard long, are shirred on silk thread at each end. The thread matcheB the velvet in color and there are four rows of shirring. A lining of crinoline supports each piece. They are then mounted on the ahapo as shown in the picture and AWFUL BURNING ITCH CURED JN A DAY "In the middle uf the night of March 30th I woke up with a burning Itch In my two bauds and I felt aa if I could pull them apart.

I put it on from my head down to my feet and then went to Wed. On the first of April I felt like a new man. The Itching was almost gone.

TO COMPOUND COLD CREAM Recipe for Moat Valuable Toilet Preparation Which Can Be Made at Home. Tu make sm r. of goting a con] cream in which there are no animn: oils many women like to compound their own massage creams. They often full to get results from a ijood rcclpo by not understanding the art. of compounding. All cold creams arc mado in the same way. The fatty substances are put In a double boiler and melted, stirring constantly. When all are melted turn out in a bowl and stir, scraping down from sides. The chief trouble comes in addinn the extracts and astringents, which must be added gradually when the fatty base is partially cold. Add first any perfumed water, drop by drop, beating constantly with a silver fork; then add tinctures or extracts last of all. These go in drop by drop also. A flat wire egg beater can be used successfully when a large amount of the mixture is being made up and one woman swears by a mayonnaise mixer for compounding her toilet creams. Here is a recipe that, can be used freely -without fear of becoming bearded or fuzzy: Eight tablespoonfuls each of almond oil and rosrwater, two tablesponfuls each of white wax and spermaceti, a teaspnonful of tincture of benzoin. Melt, the nil. then add th. j Fpermaeeti, nnd when nearly j heating add the rosewatrr, j drop, then the benzoin. I Discarded cheese jars of porcelain ' are nice to pack this cream in to i stiffen. Keep in a cool place. Put. in small jars so that in use it does not ^et genu filled by constant opening. Novel Tunic Effect. A pretty idea for the finishing or a tunic, especially one of veiling or other soft, material, is to slash the tunic in front, Mkc an overskirt, and knot it. loosely nt. each side, drawing ir away so as to show a great part o the underskirt up to the knees. Th< knots are made about half-way fron the ankles nnd the tunic falls loosel' below them. Of course, it is caugli with a few stitches in back, to keep i in position. Mutual Expectations. A notoriously close-fisted man was taking his golfing holiday ^ S c o t l a n d , where he hoped to improve his game, and, by driving a hard bargain, had managed to secure^the exclusive services of a first-class caddie, who was known to be a very good player. "Mind, now," said the ambitious southerner, "1 expect to receive some really good tips from you during my you understand?" "Aye," replied the Scotsman, hitching up the heavy bag, "an' Ah'm expectin' the like frae ye, ye ken.'—Coif Illustrated. • t i n o» Omo Crrr or TmxDO. ? __ - LUCAS cov.Yrr, I •»• FJUVK J.

I aieo roaiiae the fact that aa a public aerrant it ia hard to oleaae all th* people became we do not all think alike; bat a* public aervauta the present Board of 8aperiuteud*:uta of the Poor have endeavored to carry ou tbe buainaee of the county farm iu a buaiueae like way, and the reault shows tor itaelf at the farm aud altto tiuaucially. The urat thing to be done after tbe urneut Board weut iuto office was to purchase hay aud graiu, which aiuouutexl to over $150, lo have vuougb to bridge over uutit the uew crope came. '1'he pre&eiit board have ouly bad to buy hay oiice aud theu the amount waa leaa than $25. T h e conditions were thin. They had been keeping 14 old cows aud receiving ouly from 14 tu 2U quarta of milk per day. 1 dun't think mauy faruere would think it advisable to feed wuch a number of cows aud ouly receive such a small quantity uf milk frum them. We now have a )<ood herd nf cuttle to replace (hem. There were four borate, from 14 to 24 years old, kept on the tbe farm, aud actually there was uoi one of them that waa equal to a good days work. About half a day waa the limit for them. We did not think it paid the county to keep HUch horses, so we purchased a team aud sold the old ones, iu about a year purchased auuther team and now we have four good horses that can do a full days work and worth not less lhau $1000. They kept 25 old sheep and 'Jo lambs; some of tbe old ones had poor teeth and were unable to eat much, and several of them died soon after they were shorn. At present we have 50 good sheet) and 56 fine lambs. There was on the farm at that time, one old plow, one old mower, one old hay rack oue drag and too old cultivators. It has now a manure spreader, mower, two new plows, drill, hay rake, cream separator and we have built about 600 rods of wire fence, shingled the horse barn, built two uew out houses and a tine granary; thus giving the WUA4AM &.

A man who w veil fitted for many official office* may uot be fitted to perform tbe duties of a criminal lawyer. Tbe record of William £ . Robb for the past two yean* shows that be is well fitted for the office for the following reasons. 1st H e is a t(ood crirmual lawyer. Out of 207 cases iu justice and circuit court, 200 were convicted, which speaks well of his ability iu the trial! aud of bis judgement iu trying only cases of merit. 2nd. No case has beeu appealed aud no other lawyer hired to help him ou a criminal case started by him. 3rd.

The republican candidate has been county clerk for twelve years which pays iu salary and fees an estimate of $1500 a year or «1800 iu all and has had his share. 5th.

Referring to the report to the Board of Supervisors for the fiscal year ending September 30th, 1910, whereby it shows the receipt*, $4554.97, and the expenditures, $7295 54, will aay that on account of there being no money in the County PiKtr fund from June 1909 until Oc'ober of the same year, the report not only included one whole year but also included three months of the year 1909, and the Superintendents of the Poor did not audit any accounts for those three months; thas saving the county money by so doing. It also shows that the keeper was paid $841.63, which amount includes about one third of the previous year. The keepers salary from April 1st. 1909 to April, 1910, w»s $600.00 ; from April 1st, 1910 to April, 1911, is $700. Now by siting up the true conditions, the citUena and taxpayers will see that the present Board of Superintendents of the Poor have not ouly ran the county farm on a more economical basis, but have left the farm in far better conditions than it has been before in years.

Former Secretary of the interior James R. Garfield, of Ohio, will be called upon to deleud himself against more serious charges than have ever been made against Secretary of t&u Interior BalUnger. In an investigation which will be conducted this winter either by the BalUnger-Piuchot committee, or by another special committee of congress, it will be charged that Mr. Garfield did not merely attempt io, but actually did shield the Union Pacific liailway company wh.ll.: it defrauded the United States out of a great belt of coai Luud in Wyoming. During Mr. Cariield's administration of the affairs of the interior department, it will be charged, while minor offenders. Individuals, who undertook fraudulently to acquire a quarter section of land contrary to law, were prosecuted, convicted, and sent to jail, the Union Pacific, which actually defrauded the government out of the best coal land iu Wyoming and the west was permitted to go scot free upon the payment of a royalty of tight cents a ton. Over twice as much laud id involved in this Uniou Pacific fraud as in the Cunningham claims. While the Union Pacific coal is located within easy reach of the market. It is extremely doubtlul whether the ceal on the land covered by the Cunningham claims, which brought about the Baliinger-Piuchot controversy, will ever bo available. The real history of these Union Pacific coal land frauds has been buritd in the archives of the interior department, and has only now come to li^'ht. It appears from the records why the tacts have long been suppressed, for these records show that Mr. Garlield, before being appointed secretary of the interior to relieve E. A. Hitchcock, of Missouri, was apprised of the embarrassment in which the railroad corporation found its- Mf, and actually went into office pledged to prolect the Union Pacific asaitist Ivoth criminal and civil prosecution in the It deral courts.

W a s It Imagination? or w a s Ittw s m a l l m a n huddled In the corner of a%« rear s e a t H o t c h k i s s ? A s t h e c a r rolled on I found myself sndWng. T h e alert little man w a s for afl f e e world like a terrier, ever on the seewt, a n d scouring about in every di- ISOttOU. I found McKnight ut the Incubator, wNfc h i s coat off. working with enthuand a manicure file over the horn Of his auto. ) "rVs the worst horn I ever ran aeroee," he groaned, without looking J irft a s I c a m e In. "The blanketyb i a s * thing won't blow.'' I H e punched it savagely, finally eliciting a faint throaty croak. "Sounds like croup." 1 suggested. "My sister-in-law u s e s camphor and | g o o s e grease for it; or how about a •pfce poultice?" But McKnight never sees any jokes but his own. H e flung the horn clattering Into a corner and collapsed sulkily into a chair. I "Now." I said, "if you're through manicuring that, horn, I'll tell you about my talk with the lady in black." "What's w r o n g ? " asked McKnight, languidly. "Police watching her, too?" "Not exactly. The fact is, Rich, there's t h e mischief to pay," S t o g i e c a m e in, bringing a few additions t o our comfort. When he went • o u t ! told my story. "You must remember," I said, "that I hafl s e e n this w o m a n before the m o r n i n g of the wreck. She was buying her Pullman ticket when I did. *!%«« tho next morning, when the murd e r w a s discovered, she grew hysterical and I g a v e her s o m e whisky. The third and last t i m e I saw her, until t o n i g h t , w a s w h e n she crouched heaide t h e road, after the wreck." McKnight slid down in his chair until h i s w e i g h t rested on the small of his hack and put his feet on the big reading table. "It's rather a facer." he said. "It's Teafly too good a situation for a romixnOBpIace lawyer. It ought, to be dfaroathred. You can't agree, of «owrse; and by refusing you run the c h a n c e of jail, at lenst, and of h a v i n g Alison brought into publicity, which is tint of t h e question. You say she w a s a t tho Pullman window when you •werftT' "Yes; T bought her ticket for her. Ciave lier lower eleven." "And you took ten?" "Lower ten." McKnight straightened up and looked a t me. "Then aha thought you were in l o v e r ten." "f suppose sKe did, if she thought a t all." "But listen, man." McKnight w a s growing excited. "What do you figure rmt of this? T h e Conway w o m a n k n o w s you h a v e taken the notes to Ptttsburg. T h e probabilities are that • h e follows you there, on the chance • f an opportunity to get. rhem. either for Bronson or herself. "Nothing doing during the trip o v e r ' o r daring the day in Pittsburg; but s h e l o a m s the n u m b e r of your berth as you buy It at the Pullman ticket office fn Pittsburg and s h e thinks s h e wees her c h a n c e . N o o n e could have foreseen that that, drunken fellow would b a v s crawled Into your berth. ,,, "Now.

She g r o p e s cautiously around in the darkn e s s , finally discovering the wallet under t h e pillow. Can't you s e e it yours e l f ? " H e w a s leaning forward, excitedly, and I could a l m o s t s e e t h e g r e w s u m e t r a g e d y he w a s depicting. " S h e d r a w s out t h e wallet. Then, perhaps s h e r e m e m b e r s the alligator b a g and ou the possibility that the n o t e s are there. Instead of in the pocketbook, s h e g r o p e s around for it. Suddenly, the man a w a k e s and clutche s a t the nearest object, perhaps her neck chain, which b r e a k s . "It i s all in s i l e n c e ; t h e man Is still stupidly drunk. B u t h e holds h e r in a tight grip. T h e n t h e tragedy. She m u s t g e t a w a y ; in a minute the car will be aroused. Such a woman, on s u c h an errand, d o e s not g o without s o m e sort of a weapon, in this case a dagger, which, unlike a revolver, is n o i s e l e s s . "With a quick t h r u s t - -she's a big w o m a n and a bold o n e — s h e strikes. Possibly H o t c h k i s s is right about the left-hand blow. Harrington may have held her l i g h t hand, or perhaps she held t h e dirk in h e r left hand a s she groped with her right. Then, a s the man falls back and his grasp relaxes, s h e straightens and attempts to get a w a y . T h e s w a y i n g of the car throws her a l m o s t into your berth, and, trembling with terror, s h e crouches behind the curtains of lower teu until everything is still. Then s h e goes noisel e s s l y back to her berth." I nodded. "It s e e m s to fit partly, at. least," I said. "In the morniug w h e n she found that the crime had been not only fruitless, but that she had searched the w r o n g berth and killed the wrong man; when she saw me emerge, unhurt, just as Bhe w a s bracing herself for the discovery of my dead body, then She went into hysterics. You remember, I gave her s o m e whisky. "It really s e e m s a tenable theory. But, like the Sullivan theory, there are one or t w o things that don't agree with the rest. For one thing, how did the remainder of that chain get into Alison West's p o s s e s s i o n ? " "She may have picked it up on tho floor." "We'll admit that," I said; "and I'm sure I hope so. Then how did the murdered man's pocketbook get into the sealskin bag? And the dirk, how account for that, and the blood stains?" "Now what's the use," asked Mc- Knight aggrievedly, "of my building up beautiful theories for you to pull d o w n ? We'll t a k e it to Hotchkiss. Maybo ho can tell from the blood stains if the murderer's finger nails were square or pointed." "Hotchkiss is no fool," I said warmly. "Under all his theories there's a good, hard layer of common sense. And we must remember, Rich, that neither of our theories includes the woman at Doctor Van Kirk's hospital. that the charming picture you have just drawn does not account for Alison West's connection with the case, or for the bits of telegram in tho Sullivan fellow's pajamas pocket. You are like the man w h o put. the clock together; you've rrot half of the works left, over." "Oh. go home," said McKnight, disgustedly. "I'm n o Edgar Allan Poe. What's the use of c o m i n g here and a s k i n g m e things If you're so particular?" With one of his quick c h a n g e s of mood he picked up h i s guitar. ' Listen to this," h e said. "It is a H a w a i i a n soug about a fat lady, oh, ignorant o n e ! and how she fell off her uiule." But for all the l i g h t n e s s or the w o i d s . the voice thut followed me down the stairs w a s anything but cheery.

H e had stopped singing as abruptly as he had begun. C H A P T E R X X I I . At th« Boarding House. 1 had not been h o m e for 36 hours, wince t h e morning of the preceding day. J o h n s o n v a n not in sight and I l e t myself in quietly with my latchkey. It was a l m o s t midnight and I had hardly settled myself in the library when the bell rang and I w a s surprised to find H o t c h k i s s , much out of breath, iu the vestibule. "Why, c o m e in, Mr. Hotchkiss." I said. "I thought you were going home to go to bed." "So 1 wus, so I w a s . " H e dropped into a chair beside m y reading lamp and mopped his face. "And here it is almost midnight and I'm wider awake than ever. I've s e e n Sullivan, Mr. Blakeley." "You h a v e ! " "I have," he said, impressively. ''You were following Bronson at eight o'clock. W a s that when it happened?" "Something of the sort. W h e n I left you a t the door of the restaurant I turned and almost ran into a plainclothes man from t h e central office. I know him pretty well; once or twice he h a s taken me with him on interesting bits of work. H e k n o w s my hobby. "You know him, too, probably. It was t h e man Arnold, t h e detective whom the state's attorney has had - w a t c h i n g Bronson." .Tohnson being otherwise occupied, I had asked for Arnold myself. I nodded. "Well, he stopped me at once; said he'd been on the fellow's tracks since early morning and had had no trme for luncheon. Bronson, It seems, isn't eating much these days. I at once jotted down tho fact, because it argued that he w a s b e i n g bothered by the man with the notes." "It might, point to other things," I suggested. "Indigestion, you know." Hotchkiss ignored me. "Well, Arnold had some reason for thinking that Bronson would try to give him the*slip that night, so he asked me to stay around the private entrance there while he ran across the street and get s o m e t h i n g to eat. It seemed a fair presumption that, as he had gone there with a lady they would dine leisurely and Arnold would have plenty of time to get hack." "What, about your own dinner?" I asked, curiously. "Sir," he said, pompously, "t have given you a wrong e s t i m a t e of Wilson Budd Hotchkiss if you think that a question of dinner would even obtrude itself on his mind at such a time as this." He was a frail little man and tonight he looked pale with heat and over-exertion. "Did you have any luncheon?" I asked. "•''}.lib *ii Aunt Pentinpe—Aunt Penny, lor Leon w a s twenty-two—all at Odce sef> • 'v H e wus somewhat embarrassed at that. "1 really, .Mr. Blakeley, the e v e n t s of the day were so eugrr>«9i£g- " "Well," J said, "I'm not going to s e e you drop ou the floor from exhaustion, .lust wait a minute." I went back to the pantry, only to be confronted with rows of lucked doors and empty dishes. Downstairs, In the baseineut kitchen, however, I found two unattractive looking cold chops, Home dry bread and a piece of cake, wrapped iu a napkin, and frem its surreptitious and generally hangdog appearance destiued for the coachman in the stable at the rear. Trays there were uone- everything but the chairs and tables seemed under lock and key and there was neither napkin, knife nor fork t o be found. T h e luncheon w a s not attractive In appearance, but Hotchkiss a t e his cold chops and gnawed at his crusts as though h e had been famished, while he told his story. "I had been there only a few minutes," he uaid, with a chop iu one hand and the cake in the other, "when Bronson rushed out and cut across the street. He's a tall man, Mr. Blake ley, and I had bard work keeping close. It was a relief w h e n he jumped on a passing car, although being well behind, it w a s a hard run for me to catch him. He had left the lady. "Once on the car, w e simply rode from one end of the line to the other and back again. I suppose he w a s passing the time, for he looked at his watch now and then and when I did once get a look at his face it made me--or-••uncomfortable. l i e could have crushed me like a fly, sir." I had brought Mr. Hotchkiss a glass of wine and he was looking better. He stopped to llniah it. declining with a w a v e of his hand to hare it refilled, and continued: "About nine o'clock or a little later he got off s o m e w h e r e near Washington circle. He went along one of the residence streets there, turned to hia left a square or two, and rang a bell. He bad been admitted when I got there, but I guessed from the appearance of the place that It w a s f a boarding house. "I waited a few minutes and rang the bell. When a maid answered It, I asked for Mr. Sullivan. Of course there was no Mr. Sullivan there. "I said I was sorry; that the man I was looking for was a new boarder. She was sure there was no such boarder in the house; the only new arrival was a man on the third floor— she thought his namo was StuKrt, " 'My fripnd has a cousin by that name,' I said. 'I'll go up and see.' "She wanted to show me up, but I said it. was unnecessary. So after telling me it was the bedroom and sittingroom on the third floor front, I went up. "I met a couple of men on the stairs, but neither of thorn paid any attention to me, A hoarding house is the easiest place in the world lo enter." "They're not. always so easy to leave," I put in, to his evident irritation. "When I got to the third «tory I took out a bunch of keys and posted myself by a door near the ones tho girl had indicated. I could hear voices in one of the front rooms, but could not understand what they said. "There was no violent dispute, but n steady hum. Then Bronson jerked the door open. If he had stepped into the hall he would have seen me fitting a key into the door before me. But he spoke before he c a m e out. " 'You're acting like a m a n i a c ' he said. 'You know I can got those things pome way; I'm not going to threaten you. It isn't necessary. You know me.' " 'It would be no use,* the other man said. 'I tell yon I haven't seen the notes for ten days.' " 'But you will,' Bronson said, savagely. 'You're standing in yonr own way. that's all. If you're holding out expecting me to raise my figure you're making a mistake. It's my last offer.' " 'I couldn't take it. If It w a s for a million,' paid the man inside thr» room. 'I'd do it, I expect, if I could. The best of us have our price.' "Bronson slammed the door then and flung past me down the hall. "After a couple cf m i n u t e : I knocked at tho door and a tail man about your size. Mr. r.;.ikr>c;p. rponed it.

(Ti t UK CONTIMJMn.) short—waved a lean, ringed hand at A row of ancestral portraits on the wall. "These." she aaid, sternly, "are the people ou whom you are determined to bring a public scandal, Agatha." It w a s not the first time iu iny experience thut Aunt Femiy had brought m e before thia court of the past, that hung iu the upper hall. I hail broken my engagement, one Aunt Penny bad planned and executed tor me, and with the wedding day but a week off. For forty-odd years Aunt i'exiny had worshiped at the shrine of family at* It waa pictured here. For instruction, correction or reproof, atie had always brought me to lace thebu shadows in their utroeiuus frames. T o her they reflected the glorious and honorable ptast of the family of Penryu. To me they seemed a quaint, half-giddy array of men and women who. in their day and time, had believed i hem s e l v e s unworldly and correct. S o m e o f the w o m e n wore monstrous hoopsklrts, s o m e uf thein held up attenuated arms to display leg-o'-mutton s l e e v e s ; others faced the world from the depths of huge poke bonnets. They were all object lessons, teaching the absurdity of some i a s h l o u s that have passed away. S o m e of the men, with their great shoe buckles, res'jinbled the pictures of George Washington; sorue of them — t h e s e must have been the poet-art- Jsts of the Penryns—wore wildly long hair, that had the appearance of being uncombed.

For the most part tho faces of my forbears were fat, placid, smirking and satisfied in expression. In their e y e s there was a look of reproach for me, with one exception. I thought I detected in the face of my greatuncle, Peter Penryn, a look of sober sympathy. His portrait hung lower | than the rest, at the rear of the hall— for a reason. Tradition said that after a long engagement, arranged for Uncle Peter by his friends, he had been sued for breach of promise; that he l had eagerly paid what the court I thought was sufficient balm for his ! act of treachery, and had lived and I died a bachelor, thus losing caste among tho ancient and honorable people who looked down from the wall as I followed Aunt Penny to | their high tribunal, to explain why the engagement was broken—why I would not. be married as she and the ancFs-nrs had expected. It was a trying ordeal for me. I loved Aunt Penny devotedly, and had | spent 20 years under her^roof and in I her cam—I was five and twenty. Tho | wedding trousseau was upstairs, some | of It in the partially packed trunks. 1 anil the bridesmaids were in readiness and nn tiptoe; the wedding breakfast was on!m-od. I knew that the breaking uf my promise would give. Aunt Penny the most intense pain, as it had done. To save her feeling:-; and to keep my place In her affections. I descended to subterfuge. | "Aunt Penelope." I derlarrd, " It Isn't my fault that T.eon -Mr. Masters —desires to break the encasement." "Drslres? What are you saying, Agatha? Declines to marry a Penryn. with the invitations all out, the bishop invited to preside and with a beauti ful bride, such as you will he?" disagreeing, the govern "He does," I faltered, with a sadden j tako notice of the same, and determination to soo Leon Masters at them, an inhabitant of Bombay once and mako him tell Aunt Penny to the Inquisition at Go*, whi it was his wish to be free.

I saw far - consequences of my rash conduct. She left me with her ^ine e y e s glowing with battle light, and I fled in the) limousine that had waited for m e t o r an hour to the office uf Leon Masters. He had received the letter t h a t morning, I knew, if the mails had! done their usual wurk. He took m « to his inner sanctum aad I hurried! my explanation: "Leon—Mr. Masters—I've told A u n t Penny that you—that you a t e taw one who didu't wish—she is hurt. very much hurt, I^eou, and angry—* and I thought that perhaps you would! tell her that it is you who decided that it isn't best!" Leon looked unutterably relieved. "Is that all, Agatha?" he said. "I was afraid -very much afraid—that you did not mean—that you m i g h t have reconsidered your letter—that you w e r e not—that you wanted to g o on, you k n o w ! " His blunt words, bis evident satisfaction with what I had done brought the hot blushes to my face. And I had expected to find him overwhelmed with grief—had even pictured his efforts to win me back! "So." I stammered, "you reaUy didn't!" "No, Agatha. I really didu't, but I would not have caused you any—er embarrassment—not for a king's ransom. And dad had set his heart o n it—he thinks you are perfection, ! Agatha—and you are.

"But what did he mean by saying he hadn't seen the notes for ten days? And why is Bronson making the overtures?" "I think he was lying," Hotchkiss reflected. "Bronson hasn't reached his figure." "It's a big advance, Mr. Hotchkiss and I appreciate what you have done more than I can tell you," I said. "And now, if you can locate any of my property in this fellow's room we'll eend him up for larceny and at least h a r e him where we can get at him. I'm going to Cresson to-morrow, to try to trace him a little from there. But I'll be back in a couple of days and we'll begin to gather in these scattered threads." Hotchkiss rubbed his hands together delightedly. "That's it," he said. "That's what we want to do, Mr. Blakeley. We'll gather trp the threads ourselves; if we let the police in too soon they'll tangle It tip again. I'm not vindictive by nature, but when a fellow like Sullivan not only commits a murder, but goea to all sorts of trouble to put the burden of guilt on an innocent man— I nay hunt him down, sir!" "You are convinced, of course, that SaHivan did it?" "Who else?" He looked over his glasses at rae with the air of a man whose mental attitude is unassailable. "Well, listen to this," 1 said. Then I told him at length of my encounter with Bronson in the restaurant, of the bargain proposed by Mrs. Conway and finally of McKnight's new theory. But, although he was impressed he was far from convinced. "It's a von* vivid piece of imagination," be paid, drily: "but. while it fits the evidence ns far as it goes, it doesn't go far enough. How about the stains ia lower seven, the dirk and the srallet? Haven't we even got motive In that telegram from Bronson?" "Yes," I admitted, "but that, bit of chain—" "Pooh," he eaid, shortly. "Perhaps, Uko yourself, Sullivan wore glasses with a chain Our not. finding them 4oes not prove they did not exist." And there I made an error; half confidences are always mistakes. I tould n/>t tell of the broken chain in Alteon West's gold purse. It wan one o'clock when Hotchkiss finally left. We had by that time arranged a definite course of action— Hotchki«9 to cearch Sullivan's rooms and if possible find evidence to have him held for larceny, v/hile I went to Cresaoa. Stratigoly enough, however, when I •ntered the train the following morntag. Hetchklss was already there. He had bought a new notebook and was anerpeatag a fresh pencil. "I changed my plans, you nee," he said, Tmstling hia newspaper aside for me **R's no discredit to your intelligent*, Mr. Blakeley, but you lack the MofMslonal eye, the analytical mind. -foo Heaj gentlamen call a spade a Km in. although it may be a shovel."

I fftapt moat of the way to Cresson. to the disgust of the little detective. U n a r y he struck up an acquaintance with a kindly faced old priest on his way home to his convent school, armed with a roll of dance music and surreptitious bundles that looked like bfnees of candy. From scraps df con- Tersation I gleaned that there had been mysterious occurrences at t>«t ,-eoevent— ending in the theft of what the reverend father called vaguely "a anantity of undermuslins." I dropped Aaleep at that point and when I roused ***% few moments later, the conversation had progressed. Hotchkiss had a dlafram on an envelope. ' W i t h this window bolted and that one Inaccessible and if, as you say, the —-er—garuieutu were iu a tub here at X, then, u« you hold tho key to the other door—I think you eaid the convent dog did not raise any disturbance? Pardon a personal question, but do you ever walk in your sleep?" The priest looked bewildered. "I'll tell you what to do," Hotchkiss said, cheerfully, leaning forward, "look around a litUe yourself before yuu cull in the police. Somnambulism is a queer thing. It's a question whether we are most ourselves sleeping or waking. Kver think of that? Live a saintly life all day, prayers and matins and all that, and the subconscious mind hikes you out gf bed at night to steal undermuslins! Subliminal theft, so to speak. Better examine the roof." I dozed again. When. I wakened Hotchkiss sat alone and the priest, from a corner, was staring at him dazedly over his breviary. It was raining when we reached Cresson, a wind-driven rain that had forced the agent at the news stand to close himself in and that beat back from the rails in parallel lines of white spray. As he went up the main street Hotchkiss was cheerfully oblivious of the weather, of the threatening dusk, of our generally draggled condition. My draggled condition, I should say, for he improved every moment"— his eyes brighter, his ruddy face ruddier, his collar newer and glossier. Sometime, when it does not encircle the little man's neck, I shall test that collar with a match. I was growing steadily more depressed: 1 loathed my errand and its necessity. I had always held that a man who played the spy on a woman cam* forward rubbing his bands, followed by a thin man In overalls, "Mr. Peck says," h e began—"this Is Mr. Peck of Peck & Peck—says t h a t the place we a r e looking for Is about seven miles from the town. It's clearing, isn't i t ? " "It is not," I returned, savagely. "And we don't want a runabout, Mr. Peck. What we require is a a hennetically sealed diving suit. I suppose there isn't a machine to be h a d ? " Mr. Peck gazed at me in silence; machine to him meant other things than motors. "Automobile," I supplemented. His face cleared. "None but private affairs. I can give you a good buggy with a rubber apron. Mike, Is the doctor's hunse in?" I am still uncertain as to whether the rawboued ruan we took out t h a t night over the mountains was the doctor's burse or not. If it was, the doctor may be a good doctur, but he doesn't know anything about a horse. And furthermore, I hope he didn't need tho beast that miserable evening. While they harnessed the horse Hotchkiss told iuu what he had learned. "Six Curtises in the town and vicinity," he said. "Sort of family name around here. One of them is telegraph operator at t i e station. Person we are looking for is—was a wealthy widow with a brother named Sullivan! Both supposed to have been killed on the Flier." "Her brother," I repeated, stupidly. "You see," Hotchkiss went on, "three people, iu one party, took the train hero that night, Miss West, Mrs. Curtis and Sullivan. The two women had the drawing room, Sullivan had lower seven. What we want to find out is just who these people were, where they camo from, if Bronson knew them, and how Miss West became entangled with them. She may have married Sullivan, for one thing." I fell into gloom after that. The roan was led unwillingly into the weather, Hotchkiss and I eclipsed behind the blanket. The liveryman stood in the doorway and called directions to us. "You can't miss it," he finished. "Got the name over the gate anyhow, 'The Laurels.' The servants are still there: leastways, we didn't bring them down." He even took a step into tho rain as Hotchkiss picked up the lines. "If you're going to settle the estate," Another Mile Saw Us, if Possible,More Despondent was beneath contempt. Then, I admit I was afraid of what I might, learn. For a time, however, this promised to be a negligible quantity. The streets of the straggling little mountain town had been clean washed of humanity by the downpour. Windows and doors were inhospitably shut, and from around an occasional drawn shade came narrow strips of light that merely emphasized our gloom. When Hotchkiss' umbrella turned inside o u t I stopped. "I don't know where you are going," I snarled, "and I don't care. But I'm going to get under cover inside of ten seconds. I'm not. amphibious." V ducked into the next shelter, which happened to be the yawning entrance to a livery Rtable, and shook myself, dog fashion. Hotchkiss wiped his colrar with his handkerchief. It emerged gleaming and unwilted. "This will do as well as any place," he said, raising his voice above the rattle of the rain. "Got to make a beginning." I sat down on the usual chair without a hack, Just inside the door, and stared out at the darkening street. The whole affair had an air of unreality. Now that I was there I doubted the necessity or the value of the Journey. I was wet and uncomfortable. Around me, with Cresson as a center, stretched an irregular circumference, of mountain, with possibly a ten-mile radius, and in it I was to find the residence of a woman whoRe first, name I did not know and a man who, so far, had been a purely chimerical person. Hotchkiss had penetrated the steaming interior of the cave and now his voice, punctuated by the occasional thud of horses' hoofs, came to me. "Something light will do," he was saying. "A runabout, perhaps," He he bawled, "don't forget us, Peck & Peek. A half-bushel of name and a bushel of service." Hotchkiss could not. drive. Born a clerk, he guided the roan much as he would drive a bad pen. And the roan spattered through puddles and splashed ink—mud, that is—until I was in a. frenzy of irritation. "What are wo going to say when we get there?" 1 asked after I had finally taken the reins in my one useful hand. "Get out there at midnight, and tell the servants we have come to ask a few questions about the family? It's an idiotic trip anyhow; I wish I had stayed at home." The roan fell just then and we had to crawl out and help him up. By the time we had partly unharnessed him eur matches were gone and the small bicycle lamp on the buggy was wavering only too certainly. We were covered with mud. panting with exertion and even Hotchkiss showed a disposition to be surly. The rain, which had lessened for a time, came on again, the lightning flashes doing more than anything else to reveal our isolated position. Another mile saw us. if possible, more despondent The water in our clothes had had time to penetrate; the roan had sprained his shoulder, and drew us along in a series of convulsive Jerks. And then through tho ra.aspattered window of the blanket, I saw a light. It was a small light, rather yellow, and it lasted perhaps 20 seconds. Hotchkiss missed it, and was inclined to doubt, me. But in s couple of minutes the roan hobbled to the side of tho road and stopped, and I mnde out a break in the pines and an arched gate. It was a small gate, too narrow tor the buggy. I pulled the horse much shelter aa possible u n s e t sr trees, and we got out. HoCcnkias tied the beast and we left hisa. there, head down against the driving rain, drooping and dejected. Then we went toward the house. It was a long walk. The path bent and twisted, and now and then we lost it. We were climbing a s we went. Oddly there were PO lights ahead, although it was only ten o'clock—not later. Hotchkiss kept a little ahead of me, knocking into trees now and then, but finding the path in half the time I should have taken. Once, aa I felt my way around a tree iu the blacknees, I put my hand unexpectedly on his shoulder and felt a shudder go down my back. "What do you expect me to do?" he protested, when 1 remonstrated. "Hang out a red lantern? What was that? Listen " We both stood peering into the gloom. The sharp patter of the rain uri leaves had ceased and from Just ahead there came back to us the stealthy pudding of f«-ei in wet soil. My band closed on Hotchkiss' shoulder and we listened together, warily. The steps were close by, uniuist<*kable. The next flash of lightning showed nothing moving: the house was iu full view now, dark and uninviting, looming huge above a terrace, with an Italian garden at the side. Then the blackness again. Somebody's teeth were chattering: I accused Hotchkiss but he denied it. "Although I'm not very comfortable, I'll admit," he confessed; "there was something breathing right at my elbow here a moment ago." "Nonsense!" I took his elbow and steered him in what I made out to be the direction of the steps of the Italian garden. "I saw a deer just ahead by the last Hash; that's what you heard. By Jove, I hear wheels." We paused to listen and Hotchkiss put his hand on something close to us. "Here's your deer," he said. "Bronze." As we neared the house the sense of surveillance wo had in the park gradually left us. Stumbling over flower beds, running afoul of a sundial, groping our way savagely along hedges and thorny banks, we reached the steps finally and climbed the terrace. It was then that Hotchkiss fell over one of the two stone urns which, with tall boxwood trees in them, mounted guard at each side of the door. He didn't make any attempt to get up. He sat in a puddle on the brick floor of the terrace and clutched his leg and swore softly in government English. The occasional relief of the lightning was gone. I could not see an outline of the house before mo. We had no matches and an instant's investigation showed that the windows were boarded and the house closed. Hotchkiss, still recumbent, was ascertaining the damage, tenderly peeling down his stocking. "Cpon my soul," he said finally, "I don't know whether this moisture is blood or rain. I thick I've broken a bone." "Blood is thicker than water," I suggested. "Is it sticky? See if you can move your toes." There was a pause: Hotchkiss moved his toes. By that time I had found a knocker and was making the night hideous. But there was no response save the wind that blew sodden leaves derisively in our faces. Once Hotchkiss declared he heard a window sash lifted, but renewed violence with the knocker produced no effect. "There's only one thing to do," I said, finally. "I'll go back and try to bring the buggy up for you. You can't walk, can you?" Hotchkiss sat. back in his puddle and said he didn't think ho could stir, but for me to go back to town and leave him, that, he didn't have any family dependent on him and that, if he was going to have pneumonia he had probably got it already. I left him there and started back to get a horse. If possible, it was worse than before. There was no lightning and only by a miracle did I find the little gate aRain. I drew a long breath of relief, followed bv another, equally long, of dismay. For I had found the hitching strap and there was nothing at the end of it! In a lull of the wind I seemed to hear, far off, the eager thud of stable-bound feet. So for the second time I climbed the slope to the Laurels and on the way I thought of many things t o say. I struck the house at a new angle, for I found a veranda, destitute of chairs and furnishings, but dry and 'evidently roofed. It. was better than the terrace, and so, by groping along the wall, I tried to m a k e my way to Hotchkiss. That was how I found the open window. I had passed perhaps six. all closed, and to have my hand grope for the next one and to find instead the soft drapery of an inner curtain was startling, to say the l e a s t I found Hotchkiss at last around an angle of the stone wall, and told him that the horse was gone. He was disconcerted, but not abased; maintaining that it was a new kind of knot that couldn't slip and that the horse must have chewed the halter through! He was less enthusiastic than I had expected about the window. "It looks uncommonly like a trap,** he said. "I toll you there was some one in the park below when we were coming up. Man has a sixth sense that scientists ignore—a sense of the nearness of things. And all the time you have been gone, some one has been watching me." (TO B E CON"TTNUKn.) Their Own Rae« the Enemy.

"Say," said the Nut Cracker to the Card Tray, "there's a cork over there in that bottle that is as tight as It can be." "Well," suggested the Card Tray, "why don't you send for Officer Corkecrew and have the offender pulled?" Progress. "Is your son taking lessons in jiu jitsu?" we asked of Mr. liilfitser. "Yes, I believe he is taking a course of instruction in it," he replies. "Is he making much progress?" "Well, I don't know whether he is or not, but at last accounts he had learned six different, ways to pronounce the name of tho science, or fad, or habit, or whatever it. may ho." A Real Gain. "Rless me!" exclaims the friend. "I never saw a man put on flesh as you have in the last six months. WThy they'll have to set a V in the back of your vest before long."

Selecting o»« that answered his purpose he asked tha shopman how much It would coat. "Well," was the reply, "if yon want the empty bottle it will be a penny, but if you want, anything in it you caa have it for nothing." "Woll, that's fair," said the customer; "put In A cork."

Evidence like the above is abundant showing that the derangements of the female organism which breed all kinds of miserable feelings and which ordinary practice does not cure, are the very disorders that give way to Lydia E . Finkham's Vegetable Compound. Women who are afflicted with similar troubles, after reading two such letters as the above, should be encouraged to try this wonderfully helpful remedy. For 30 years Lydia E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy for female ills. No sick woman does justice to herself who will not try this famous medicine. Made exclusively from roots and herbs, and has thousands of cures to its credit. m^mgmMrn. Pinkham invites all sick women M F to write her for advice. She has guided thousands to health free of charge.

UNCLE JOE SPEAKS HiS MIN0 H a i a Few W o r d i to 8 a y R e g a r d i n B the Too Q«od I n U n t l o n a of O n t ' i Friends. -TlilB lu the moat comlortabltj chair. Uncle Joe. Won't you take it? Uncle- Joe looked at hli nephew with a auaplclon of a flare. He waa a c&eerfulj bluff old gentleman, who waa maUngi a Ttrft to hla nephew's famllj. and hadj Just come In from a brtak walk in the country. Now he strode to the Oreplace aad stood to front of It, waroin«? his coattalls. Hla nlsos was busy wKhi some fancy work near the window and' his nephew had* Just laid aside the afternoon paper. "Do sit down In the most comfortable) chair," urged the young; woman with, the fancy work. "I prefer to stand up," said Unclei Joe. "Any objection V "Why, no," said hla nephew. "Of course If you wish to stand up—" "Your Intentions," said <.Uncle JoeJ "are good, but with your permission, I'm going to make a speech. There 1* such a thing as haying too good Intentions." "What do you mean, uncle?" asked the voice from the window. "I'm sure we want you to be perfectly comfortable." "So I am," said the old gentleman, "but you forget that I am old enough, and not yet too old, I hope, to judge for myself." "When I want to sit down I know enough to Bit down, and an a matter of fact, I oonblder oorae of the other chairs quite as comfortable as the one> you are always complying me to nit down in. "When I am at dinner I know when I have had enough to eat, and I don't like to be told that 1 have a poor appetite If 1 don't eat twice an much a* anybody else. "When I go out to walk I am still capable of deciding whether or not to wear rubbers. And when I stay in tho house It's my own fault if I alt in a draft. "I like this place, and 1 should liko to prolong this visit several days longer. That's my speech," finished the old gentleman. There was a moment's silence. "And a mighty good speech, too,* said tho younger man,, suddenly. "I hadn't thought of it that way before, but chasing people to make them comfortable is a rnther oppressive kind of hospitality. Sit down in any old chair you like, Uncle Joseph, and I guesa hereafter Maud and I will be able to restrain our impulse to pick It for you." "I shouldn't, have mentioned it," said Uncle Joe, with a twinkle, "if I hadn't been sure that Buch sensible young people would agree with me."—Youth's Companion. The Mean Man. Of all unhappy women she who has married a really mean man is surely the unhappieat. I knew a girl who. engaged to be married, never got a present that would not come in "useful" afterward; even her engagement ring was bought second-hand. I knew the woman when she waa married, and I can safely say that I never saw such an example of human blight; every year she seemed to shrivel up more and more in body and in mind. Her -whole thought seemed finally to become oentered on counting the farthings of her houBokeeping allowance, BO that she might stflal a tew of them for pocket money. No condemnation can be too strong for the mean man, or, for that matter, tho mean woman. Meannesa, of course, is a term which only applies when the economy practised comes from sheer sordidnesa of soul; to do Just what one can afford Is to my mind the truest generosity. Such giving leaves behind no sting, either for the dispenser or the receiver. Thrills of Life. Life has few momenta of surpassing thrill and wonder. Yet there are porno; and the loveliest thing about it alt Is this, that wealth cannot buy them, nor genius create them, nor rank command them. The impaxtialness of Qod Is beautiful. A few of the superfluities do seem to he a little unevenly distributed—but. the great, holy luxuries of life are aa freely vouchsafed the peasant as the king. The j glory and the beauty of life itself; tho Rhelter of a mother's arms, and the deeper shelter of her heart; the first | dismantling klsB of love; the earliest I gUmpae of your first-born's face— these are for the plowman aa well aa for the poet or the prince.—Robert EL^ 102 ao ltt » I Knowles.

It would hi- fa- •tmiliur to every roador. Outi Uuy 1 received a, message from film requesting me to call at his office a t my earliest convenience. iTust'iitmyself I waa K'veu a private in rviow. Alter a little preliminary iveruutiou the judge suid that he . ranted to talk to me in regard to a personal mutter, lie needed my-assistkmce In an affair of much concern to fciimtielf and wife. He thou rotated at koine length the history of his family jtrouhlen. There waa a skeleton in his ^cloutit H e had sent for me believing Vhat I might bo able to devise some iiieutsuTG. of relief. !C;- 9 "My wife," he said, "is very mucu tjworricd and quitu prostrated with brief. She ia in such a nervous state iof mind I fear she will hreak down kiltogether." Hia eyes tilled with tears ias he explained the cause of their Ijreat trouble. "She was a widow with h;td known her when she was a iusyi'h eked young \MIIII;IU some twenty five years Lielure. She was then hvini; with her husband m a liule town in JUJiiheastoru Ohio. This was before she became 1 he wife of the judge. Her first marriage was said lo be i runaway match. She was a remarkably beaulli'ul woman then, but ihere WHS a cloud hanging over her life. I can i not Lay what it might have been that caused gossiping women to shake their heads and whisper as she passed by. Shortly after she gave birth to a sou she lefi the village. 1 do not know just where she went, but it was shortly afterwards rumored that she had been granted a divorce. She was now cutting a large figure in society und often spoken of as the handsomest woman in the capitol city. Her husband, the judge, was up to ] this time quite successful in political life. Possessed of considerable brain force and much amiability of character, he might have risen still higher had not the intrigues set on foot by his ambitious wife contributed to puu him down. She planned schemes to exalt him and to acquire wealth. In making these efforts she aroused the jealousies of others und made the judgo quite unpopular with the leading politicians. Her mle-lirected zeal not ; only crushed the political prospects of ' fen only son when I married her. This her husband, but finally resulted in ex son, notwithstanding his moral training and tender care, hats turned out to )e an unmitigated villain and a constant menace to our peace of mind. He seems to be heartless and devoid Jof decency and respect for our posit i o n . Uesides, he is a thief Only a whort time ugo he was arrested in Chicago, taken to Baltimore and charged Xwith committing a robbery in a house \>t ill repute. I waa compelled to setkle the case or suffer the disgrace of Jan exposure. Wine and women are • l i s hobbies. He is reckless in the use • *of money and will resort to any means Jto obtain it. Even now I am furnishi n g the money wherewith to gratify ihis vicious appetite, (led knows what the will do next! We are living in confcstantjfear that he will do something ^to publicly disgrace us, Now, if there ^jte any wmy Uaat he can be got out of jthet couptry^without publicity, if you tean devise any plan to get rid of him jwithout killing him or sending him to Jthe penitentiary, it Mill meet with my (approval. 1 think it is a case where tsovere measures would be entirely (justifiable. Just think of it! The (scapegrace has gone so far in his <leipravity as to oscorl a woman of known •bad character to his mother's receptions." My sympathies once aroused and a promise made, I felt, bound to take como action. It appeared a difficult (undertaking. The fellow was to be got rid of, but just how was tho .^question that, puzzled my brain. I had rread of many Htraugo disappearances of persons who were never afterwards Iheard or, but the manner of their disappearance was not always clear. It may have been a voluntary act, mental aberration or the result of a crimo, I prided myself upon my skill in demising ways and means to accomplish a n end, but tho case in hand, after «ome deliberation, appeared aorne^hat llike perpetrating a wrong deed for *the purpose of accomplishing a good -result i ff the story told by the judge was -true, there would he but little difficuljty in landing the rascal in the penirtentiary for the crimes he was comm i t t i n g almost daily; but. a measure T)f this kind would mean exposure and ;disgrace. To put. him away by foul •means was out of the question. He {may have deserved a sharp medicine, i .taUHt^tfee-TrGrld may have been better -toff without him, but there was no | (thought of doing him bodily harm. | The idea was to dispose nf him and \ 'slide him out, of the country tenderly, ! IThe judge wanted to got. rid of htm, j 'but could suggest no way. It was .. I •jdolicate case to handle. I knew that ' [the judge was a conscientious and hu- ,mane man ::nd that he meant, no •wrong, and It, wan difficult for me tn ••understand tho course I could safely pursue. A;; 1 turned to leave the judge,':; •Office his wife entered the room. 1 .wax introduced, and oast, my oven ftipon hor face. If did not appear quite -new to me. Could I be mistaken? Had il met her before? As ihe possible recognition did not appear mutual 1 was .unable to place her. The judge turned away to converse 4-with his disbursing clerk. The wife "who had evidently been informed in fl-esnrd to the purpose of my interview *<with the judRP. requested rne to be •eated. Placing her hand upon m. larm she smiled pleasantly, while as- TRurlng me of hor faith In my ability tn «lo Kpmelhtmr to help them out nf the <ieep trouble they wer« in. She spoke bitterly of h e r e o n ATtd of the many indignities he had heaped upon her. 'She 'wanted tn TVrv freed from him. was to be polling her from Washington society. I Mas furnished a photograph of her profligate stepson. 11? was a linelooking young man, with wavy hair, keun blue eyes and rosy cheeks; in fact, much like his mother in her I ma! e big hauls." The judge's stepson took to a suggestion ul this kind like [a duck lo water and Mas highly elated ; on arcouni id ihe proposed trip. lie no doubt Imagined a blunder Held for ihe exercise ot Ills o.vn peculiar talent. |t)n their arrival at New York they registered under assumed names at [the .Men-hams' JioLel on Cuiirlland street. Fur several days following they strolled about th«j oily, taking in the sights and waiting for something to turn up. While walking along liroadway, near the old Astor hotel, they chanced to pass a middle-aged man who was gazing about in an uncertain sort of May. Hia dress and maimer gave him the appearance of a green one from the rural districts, presumably from some place uui west. "Here," said Reed in an undertone, "Is the very fellow we are looking for. Let us try a hand on him. I will make him think 1 have met him before." Reed now stepped up and accosted the green on*; with an air of assumed familiarity. Seizing him by the hand he said: "How do you do. Mr. (ilic.k? I am so glad to see you." The verdant man responded: "Yon are mistaken, sir; my name Is Jones, and I live at Fort Wayne, Indiana." "Never mind the name," said Reed, "l got the names mixed, but I remember now where I met you, You used to run a livery stable at Kokomo." "Yes, I did." "Then of course you remember me. I am the man that sold pumps and kept my team at your stable. Yin /((/mrwerss WRSA BUt Offft IM /t/?(Mft0f0ft 7/tae/iMfdr youth, His face was criminal tendencies.

She wished him ban- Jlshed In pome far-away country; if he rere.dead, she Mould feel relieved. , While relating her trembles she ^chanced to mention tho namn nf her jflrat husband. On the InBtant I rncog -Hized her aa an old acquaintance, i innship of men. This being the case I war; at a loss to determine how to reach him. It, was necessary to introduce a stranger in ortler to carry out the plot. I had in view. After pondering over tho matter for some days I hit. upon an expedient that I believed would dispose of the young man without, public: exposure nr resorting to crime. There \ Q K in my employ at, this time a man whom I shall call Reed. If ever then; Mas, a born confidence man he Mas the one; nn actor that, could assume a parr, live it. and play it. throue.h with a face as solemn as the graveyard; never virions, but. over apparently in earnest M-hile practicing a deception for misleading only those who ought, tn be misled. I had found him on all occasions tn lie a valuable assistant. In furthering the ends of justice. Reed hailed from the south, had just, arrived In tho city and was In quest, of a private lodging place. The judge's stepson was now occupying an elegant, suite of rooma in a fashionable location, lie Mas so ompletely captivated by Reed's assumed manners and at)parent, wealth that, he was delighted at the opportunity afforded to secure a roommate. Tha detective accepted tho offer made by Ills rev,- friend and poon found himself in quite a novel and dangerous situation. He waa the eompnnion of a thief Mhose exploits wore, liable to involve hoth in trouble. He had led his roommate to believe that, he was himself engaged In rruostionabht transactions and that. New York wan the place to operate In. There," r.aid he, "are chances to and I have taken many drinks together." "Oh, yes," drawled Mr, Jones; "what on earth are you doing" in New- York?" ".lust, looking around and having a good time. Let's go and take something." "Come along, Jones. Lot us go around to our hotel," said Reed. The trio went to the .Merchants. .Tones accepted an invitation to go to the room of his friends. "What, is \oar favorite drink?" asked Keeik "i'lain hrand>," said .lone:;. "I will go (Town and bring up a bottle." \s lU-rd moved nway he winked ably to the judge's stepson. Alter an ebsonee of some thirty minutes or more Reed returned wilh the brandy, lb- pulled the cork. While .(ones was looking out. of the window he slipped a small vial out nf his pocket, and, giving his partner an opportunify to see it, ho turned the contents into tho hoi tie of brandy. He gave the bottle a shake and sot It down on the table. The judge's stepson's face flushed and there WHS a tremor in his voice. He seemed to comprehend the noxious power of the venomous ingredient, that had been poured into the bottle. Rood appeared self-possessed and proficient in the art or deceiving and bold and bad enough to commit any crime, while the young man was evidently greatly frightened---not. because of any compunctions of conscience, hut for the reason that ho was, as was after wards shown, a natural born coward. lie possessed none of the elements and rugged force of an assassin. He seemed to have a m-rvniis apprehension that he was M-ading In water too dee;; and dangerous. He was heartleM unc-ugh. but bocoehow lacked the nurv« to; perform. Btep by atep Jones became drowsy. The atepfcou strove to rully him lo his sensea. Jones closed bis eyes. What might have been a puautoui o* overheated imagination now became H leurful reality. The stepson was now almost paralyzed with fear as Jones ; ' l p p e d f r o m h i s c h a i r UJ t h e H o u r . W a s h e d e a d o r a l i v e ?

J now leave the horrors of this occasion lo the imagination of the reader. The uvo survivors suddenly left the bote] and crussed over to Jersey City and took lodging tit Taylor's hotel, M"hcrc they registered under assumed names, as iln-y had done previously fctt ihe McrchaiirV. It Mas late in th" evening when, they went to bed. They had left the -Merehants' hotel late hi the afternoon. Jones, the sup posed drugged countryman, Mas not quite aa dead as the judge's blepson thought him to be. He, too, Mas a skilled pretender. Soon after his entertainer:: had taken their departure he, possum-like, came to life, got up and took u drink from the brandy bottle that was left upon the tabl*', and made his M-ay at once to the government secret service office, where lie told the story of his adventure and received further instructions. This so-called Jones was a detective of marked ability. He could assume almost any character and deceive the best educated criminal, yet withal an honest, faithful servant to the government. At an early hour on the following morning at Taylor's hotel Reed pretended to he taken suddenly sick with a cramp in his stomach. He left his roommate and went below. A short time afterwards he rushed back into the bedroom and informed the judge's stepson with a trembling voice that they must get out of the place in a hurry or they Mould be arrested. Reed said that while downstairs he had torn a slip from a newspaper. He handed it to the judge's stepson, who. on glancing at it hastily, at once sprang out of bed It Mas a sensational article and bore the appearance of having been clipped fro,m a newspaper. As a matter of fact, however, it had been printed at the New York Tribune job office. It was a nice piece of deception and read as follows: A B r u t a l M u r d e r and R o b b e r y . Another of 1 hose outrageous and dastardly murders which have so recently startled the community occurred in this city yesterday afternoon, the particulars of which are as follows; It appears that shortly after dark last, evening a won dressed man, apparently ihirty-flve years of age, was found by the polios lying near Ihe font of Courtland street in an insensible condition. He was taken to the pollen station, where restoratives were administered, and when he had revived sufficiently ho stated that his name was V. R Jones and that lie was from Fort Wayne, Ind, Mr. Jones was removed to the city hospital last evening, where he became delirious and died about nlno o'clock. The police are on the track of the murderers, who are supposed to be from Baltimore or WafihinRton, as the clerk at the hotel states that, they came in just. after the arrival of the Washington train, The clerk is positive he can identify them. A frightful ghost had risen and was standing in Its most, horrible form before the now half-crazed titepson. The rope of the hangman was looming up before his eyes. He did not even take time to wash his face, so great was his anxiety to leave New York behind him. Even the very air he breathed seemed tainted with the foul odor of his crime. It. was thought to he dangerous to travel by rail at first, and they started away on foot, and finally concluded to make their way to New Orleans. Reed was, of course, the ruling spirit, and was carrying out, the plan they had agreed upon. They doubled back and fnrlh with tho object of putting imaginary pursuers off tho track. Reed was seeking delay for the pur pose of gaining time:, When tho pair arrived at. New Orleans nbout. tho first thing that met their eyes was a handbill posted in the depot describing tho fugitives and offering a reward tor their arrest, and conviction. Staring at. the bill with heads of perspiration starting upon his brow the judge's stop: on nearly collapsed. He Mas careworn, downhearted and ready to speed away as swift as steam could carry him. In tho course of time the fugitives arrived at Brownsville, Tex. From this point T received a note from Rood saying that they Intended to, cross the Rio (Irando and work their way tn tho City of Mexico. To the minds nf the detectives whn played their part in thia case the whole affair appeared a farce. After a time Reed returned from Mexiro. He had given hlR companion the slip and was quite positive In his opinion that, the judge's stepson would never dare show his face In the United States. He declared the mnn was about the greatest, coward he had ever reel. with. Reed was correct in his opinion, as tho fugitive, so far as I know, ha never been heard of. He certainly die not appear in Washington to further annoy the judge and his wife, fie ma> i-fiil be running from a Nemesis tha will never overtake him. iCopyrlsht, 1310, by W. O.

T h e new children's bureau of Detroit is p r e p a r i n g to inaugurate a vigorous campaign for a new child labor law in Michigan. At the meeting of the bureau at Detroit, C h a i r m a n Fred M. Htitzel was empowered to 'appoint a c o m m i t t e e to draft either a new law or an amendment to the present one so that alleged laxity whereby many children who ought to ho in school are now granted working pup<rs, shall he eliminated and the authority of the hoard of education to conduct, the preliminary in vest igat inns restored, | T n q u o s t i o n a h l y the administration of the child labor law in Detroit 10 day is better than the lavs' bseir," de d a r e d Fred M. Butzel. "A closer relation between the working paper proposition and the school s y s t e m is very | much desired for ihe safeguarding of children. ' "The improvement aimed a! in the .'imemlmetil of the child labor law of j Michigan a. year ago were not obtained for the- reason that those pushing the a m e n d m e n t failed to work in h a r m o n y with the employers of labor in the s l a t e , " said Rev. Myron Adams. "Tiie result, is that the amended law as it stands today is worse than the | original e n a c t n u n t , The old law pro j vidod that the preliminary invest iga- | lion on which working p e r m i t s were to he issued should he conducted by the educational authorities. The new law is so worded that, the preliminary investigation is now conducted by factory inspectors. That This is unwise and positively harmful is shown by j the recent r e v e l a t i o n s of factory conditions in this city a s r e g a r d s child labor and s a n i t a r y regulations. ] "One w e a k n e s s of the law in Michigan lies in a d e n s e which p i r n i h s j u n d e r a g e children to go to work if j their work is necessary for the support of the family-.

The need of a modern institution to house these Individuals has forced itself upon t h e a i i e i n i u n of the Detroit public school a u t h o r i t i e s with renewed force.

Cases similar to that of the historical J u k e s lamily of New York will he traced, s h o w i n g the incalculable evil that can be w r e c k e d by even one imbecile left at large.

We a r e constantly refusing these children a place in our schools t h r o u g h reasons of economy and justice to the normal child.

It waa found that by ajtfolonged soaking In water the salt was removed. i' T h e tower- is quadrangular, nearly 40 feet square .jat the base a n d 350 feet high, including the pinnacle the shape of a pyramid, the summit belug crowned >y the figure o f an angel with spread wings. The undations of the ancient buildings were found to good, but none too wide, so that considerable treastheulng had to be effected. No scaffolding has jbeen used, a sliding platform being contrived to rise rwith t h e progress of t h e building. , The shaft; Which w a s completed last December, l a composed of an/inner and an outer shaft, between "•J i ^ 4 * T 58* hv? h .,» v a t * . t. ¢ - 0 v ^ * " * \ " w *d •* 4 £?< x} v. > r#r /yrw QW/A*//JZ r /7j /rs/ow J& Which mounts the inclined plane which leads to the bell chamber. The walla of the outer Khaft are six foet thick and the inclined plane is lit by 3G wlnklowc, In (he new tower the shafts nrp bound together by iron ripds and the pilasters at the angles of the inner shaft are similarly united. This will cause any future fall of the tow.er to he as one m a t s •instead-of a gentle subsiding. Careful searching among the ruins of the old campanile resulted in the finding of nearly all the fragm e n t s of the beautiful bronze doors, statues and baat e l l e l s of Sansovino's famous loggetta. which has been restored with wonderful care and devotion. T b o estimated cost of the present tower is over 2,000,000 francs, this sum having heen> raised by publ i c Bubscriptlon and a large grant from the state. When the tower fell, of the five bells only the •'•largest was not broken; the other four have been .replaced and were presented to his beloved Ven- -tce by Pope Piua X. The lions of St. Mark, which ^originally occupied the centers of the north and Kouth sides of the attic and were defaced during t h e French occupation, are to be replaced. - The tower has a strangely hard and new ap- ~yMraaee against the soft, time-mellowed facade t*of the church of St. Mark with Its wild horses iUld euridos Oriental-looking domes, and s e e m s alpiost as incongruous as the large steamboats and •motor launches which have now challenged the N supremacy of the graceful gondola on Venetian VatrrwayK. Tim Venetians were, however. wiHe T O rebuild the campanile, for the long, low lines of the surrounding palaces need this Rky-plercing shaft to complete the effect even as London needs t h e dome of St. Paul's to lift.

The bells of the old campanile were shattered by the fall of the tower, hut. they h a v e now, as stated above, been replaced by the generosity of t h e present pope. They were cast on St. Mark's •day, April 25, and will again be solemnly rung rfrora the tower on 8t. Mark's day nf n*»xt year. "By kind permission of Professor Giuseppe del p i c c o l o , chief superintendent of the reconstruc- 'l.ion of the loggetta, I was permitted," writes a 'Vorreapondent, "to witness the remarkable work •••wrhich has been accomplished within one of the . «urade# of the doge's palace.

In Home cases the brick haJ been washed four or five times in order to thor oughly cleanse it. So care' ful has the c o m m l t t e f i been to secure the besl materials, that the first portion of the reconstruct ed brick work waa re moved owing to suspi cions as to the quality ol the bricks supplied. The brick shaft now rises com pletely clear of all scaffolding and Impedimenta, and from certain points ol view the old effect of tho piazza is again coming to life. Entering the arehwaj at. the base of the towcf one ascends by a series ol sloping ways made of reinforced concrete. The in terlor brickwork Is a marvel of fine setting, and when struck with the hand a portion of it will resound like a drum. Reaching the present summit, one la able to examine the progress with the stonework of the dado, which In turn will support, the pyramid apex of the tower. On the summit of all will be fixed a gilded figure of an angel, pivoted at the head of a pendulum. so that, when wintry winds s w e e p over the Venetian lagoons the strain upon the tower on this figure will be reduced to a minimum. The view from the summit of the tower Is a fascinating and in some respects a surprising one, for from this elevation none of the canals are visible, and the only one of the innumerable bridges which one can discern Is the Ponte del Lovo—a Venetian corruption of the Italian word lupo, which signifies a wolf. Piacentlnl, chief superintendent of the reconstruction of the campanile, I was permitted," writes a correspondent, "to thoroughly Inspect the new tower which is rising above the fairy city of Venice."

F e w P r e c a u t i o n s F t v r m e r M a y A v o i d L o s s o f T i m e , E x p e n s e a n d . In* J u r y to A n i m a l s . (By II. E. K I N G M A N . ) A horse cannot do satisfactory work with shoulders that pain h im every time h e takes a step. The horse may be looked upon a s a machine that Is expected to do s o much work, and if some of the mechanism is out of order then ffte amount of •work is lessened. But, also, t h e animal muat be looked upon a s a creature with feelbiK and ambition, taking pride In its work, that is a willing, obedient a n d therefore valuable servant, and should be properly cared for» T h e first thing of importance (o consider i n tho draught bbrse Is the collar. Most of t h e injured shoulders are the result of poorly fitting collars, and the fault usually lies in a collar being too large. It Is a good Id^a to have a harness maker fit t h e collars to your horses. He m a y be able to remove padding and in other ways make the collar o v e r s o that it will fit. nicely. Heavy collar pads are to be avoided if possible. They are hot. and cause the shoulders t o s w e a t ; this kreps t h e pad and shoulder wet, and the skin becomes soft and blisters easily. Dirty collars are probably a s responsible for sores houiders a s ill fitting ones. In the spring especially, when the horse's hair II; loriK- Hr> Is soft from lack of work, and sweats profusely. This forms a gummy dirt that adheres to the crillar and maker;, when dry, a hard, rough surface. f h e ordinary farm hand feels that bis duty is done if he scrapes the dirt from the collar with the back of his jackkrdfe. This method, however, Ls not .'in especially good o n e for the leather of the collar, and a smooth surface is not. left. A damp sponge used in the evening a s soon a s t h e collar In taken off will, in o n e or t w o minutes, remove the d i r t This may be followed by nn oiled rag; if this is done the collar in the morning should he soft and smooth. Careless driving, jerking a horse out of tho furrow and into it. again, allowing him to work with his head around on o n e Ride, all tend to produce sere shoulders. Of courxe, the first precaution to take In not t o ask a colt to do a full day's work until he learns s o m e t h i n g about, h i s job and c e a s e s to fret. The fhoulder will then gradually become toughened. It is a good idea to sner jc calves from the best cows should be raised. It is well to raise a choice male animal, to take the place of tho head bull when he becomes too old or vicious. Dairymen having the pasture and the forage should raise their cows, instead of buying them. Better milkers may b e had and at much less cost. The labor cost of raising a calf should not be counted, a s the farmer should attend to this part of the business. He has abundant time not only to raise the calves, but also to feed and help milk, r n l e s s the owner gives careful attention to details he had better give up the milk business. The calf pen should be kept clean, given dry bedding and fully exposed to the sunshine and well aired. the Shoulders With cold water—just plain cold water. Alum water has been used to good advantage; also weak solutions of tannic acid Alcohol tends to toughen t h e skin. Tho injuries to the top of the neck very frequently terminate in fistulas, withers, etc. A blister near t h e point of the shoulder is likely to become a callous and form what is known as a cold abscess." Ill fitting collars « n d poor drivers are equally responsible for a condition knbwn as "sweeny." TRUCK FARMING WITH DAIRY D i f f i c u l t t o C o n c e i v e o f M o r e P r o - f i t a b l e T y p e o f A g r i c u l t u r e T h a n J u d i c i o u s B l e n d - ing: o f T w o . TTSWF*'.- ••. - <i<v w . \r. KKLi.y.) The truck farmer who is fanning without manure maintains the supply of nitrogen In his soil by the use of legumes and huys n fertilizer rich in phosphoric acid and potash. In this way he secures a belter balanced fertilizer than the dairyman who u s e s manure rich in nitrogen and deficient in the mineral elements on clover sod that is already rich in nitrogen. Now- as nitrogen is the most expensive element of fertility we can readily s e e how much more profitable it would be. for the dairy farmer to lengthen his rotation one year and grow some highly organized market crop that would sell for more than enough to pay for the purchased grain fomis required M feed the dairy cows. In thi.s wa\ he \vi.i:M b-> making better use of the •.•iirplus of nitrogen and the purchase nf a small amount of mineral fertli/ers would enable him to greatly increase the yield of every crop grown in the rotation that is followed in growing food for his cattle. I believe that, we should try aad incorporate some of the methods of soil handling prartisod by the tracker and market r rop grower into the management of our dairy business if we succeed in deriving from ir the largest and most certain profits. It is difficult to conceive of a more profitable type at farming than a judicious blending of dairy farming and market crop growing, but. in order, to successfully combine these two types of agriculture we must abandon old and unprofitable methods of dairying and grt right down to a stuH\ of the jtrincij.J.^s of hoil fe.t.lity. •%+?• ^ . •"&£• W E I G H E D O N L Y 80 P u U N D S .

It is intended to chock the many cases of Rheumatism and dread kidney trouble which have made s o many cripples, invalids and weaklings of some of our briRhtcst. and strongest people. The druggists everywhere, even in the smallest communities, hn.ve been notified to supply themselves with the ingredients, and the sufferer will have no trouble to obtain thorn. The pre scription ir. as follows: Fluid Extract. Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Karpon, one ounce, and Compound Syrup of Snrsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by shakintr well in a bottle. The dose is one tcaspoonfnl after each mral and at. bedtime. Recent experiments in hospital cases prove this simple mixture effective in Rheumatism.

Many of the big companies are adding the newest, largest and swiftest vessels to their fleets. One of the lateBt launchings is that of a ship that is being built by a French line, to run to New York. This is one of the greatest craft yet completed, and when put in commission will be able to carry 2,020 passengers. The total cost will be about $5,000,000. That is what foreign concerns are doing to get American trade. And Americans permit them to monopolize a business that should be In American control and which should be a most important auxiliary In extending American commerce. English owners of homing pigeons have lost so many of them this season that they believe there is an especial cause. This cause, many of them are Inclined to suspect, is wireless telegraphy. Many will dismiss the indictment aa fanciful, on ar ount of the comparative weakness of the current which wireless telegraphy brings into play. The answer to this in that the current does n o t kill the birds, but only confuses them, causing them to rnlea their way. If the Marconi current affects pigeons, why not gulls? Indeed, it would seem not Impossible that wireless telegraph stations may be the means of greater disaster to gulls than lighthouses. Estimates That 26,000 Are Hunting Deer in State. PERMITS TO SHIP CARCASSES Clerk of Houghton Reports That Thert Are About 1,500 Nimroda Busy in His County—Reports of the State Game Warden. Laubing.- There are approximately 26,000 deer hunters in the woods of Michigan, according to estimates made in the office of the state game and huh warden here. Of these 21.000 are in t h e upper nejilnaula and the other 6.0U0 in lower Michigan. The purser of the car ferry operating between 'Mackinaw City and St. lgnace reports that up until November 18 3,320 hunters had crossed the straits on his boat. There, had been 12« permits to ship deer carcasses out of the state Issued tu date. The county clerk of Houghton county reports that there are about 1,500 Nimroda busy in his county. Robert Shoeman, a seventy-fouryear- old hunter of Liberty Center, 0., escaped serious punishment for an Infraction of the hunting laws because of his age. He was arrested in Houghton county on a charge of taking out a Michigan hunter's license, at a cost of about three dollars, instead of the foreign license required by law, which would have cost him $25. Recause of his age the fine was set at $2fi. The penalty provided allows of a $200 fine. I^ast season James Crawford and C>. A. Hurd of Duncan, Pa., secured resident hunters' licenses in this state. Crawford later changed his mind about taking t h e hunting trip. Burd shot two deer and shipped one of the carcaBses to Duncan under the name of Crawford. The Houghton county game warden secured a warrant lor Burd last year, but was unable to serve it until this season, when the man returned. Burd paid $150 line. From London comes the announcement of the death of the woman who claimed to be the original of "Little Dorrit," that famous character of Dickens. The lady was entitled to the hekeflt of the doubt, but It la a fact that similar clafmB have been made by others. It is also nsserted that a brother of the woman who has just died was the original "Tiny Tim," and that he served in part an the rondel for 'Paul Dombey." If all those assertions can he proved it would seem that the family formed a sort of trust for Dickens characters. Perhaps If the truth were known a considerable pronoirtion of the socalled automobile "accidents" would be found to have resulted from befuddled heads and dhsteady nerves. The menace of a man under the influence of liquor and in an automobile is easily appreciated, and when it. is demonstrated that crashes on the toad are due tn drunkenness the punishment, should he severe. Those who insist upon running amuck on the higlrwnys should be made to pay a heavy penalty, whether they be sober or drunk. The usual fate of gor-rirh-rpilck ^schemes is collapse at the end.

Lansing should not have any more cases of smallpox springing from those already here." With these words, City Physician Jones characterized the smallpox situation in I^ansing. After several days of wholesale vaccination of pupils in the public schools, of employes in the factories and large business concerns, and of many others about the city, he unites with the other physicians of Lansing in saying that such a general Btampede to be vaccinated he has never before witnessed, and because of It Lansing need not fear that many more cases of the contagious disease will develop within her own borders. "It is due to two factors," said he. "The newspapers, which have continued to urge the necessity of vaccination, have conducted a campaign of education Invaluable to the city. I told a man the other day that if he would keep still that the city health officers and the newspapers would handle the situation BO that there would be no need to fear that business would he injured here. The other factor that has hustled people to the doctors to be vaccinated has been the few deaths which have resulted In other cities in the state. "We are ahead of the game. Vaccination prevents the spread of smallpox. We need m,,. fear much from these cases which are already in the city. They are mild, and we knowthat six out. of the seven came from other cities, where the disease has been prevalent. Of course, there may be a few more cases which come as a result of outside infection.

Ferry, president of the state hoard of education, bring suit against the- state of Michigan for $7.14? A report of such nn intention has reached the sir>te board or auditors, and although it. does not seen-, to he causing them any annoyance, yet they are wondering. It. appears that on Sopfcmher 1,r.. 1910, Mr. Ferry filed with the hrmrd of auditors a hill of his expense account as president of the board, June 3, 1909. to August 29, 1D10, which amounted to S14G.11.

Every freshman coed uaisi take gymnabium work, unless because of some organic heart trouble she is physically unable to take the work. This year there are 181 freshmen girls taking work in Barbour gymnasium. Of this number there aro 17 who have to do light work, because of a tendency to weak lungs, and 26 girls whose hearts are too weak to allow of their taking the regular gymnasium exercises. In the case of the girls with weak lungs, there are none whose condition la at all serious. All of these will be helped and possibly cured of their weakness, through t h e special work that Is being given t h e m under the supervision of the director. Miss Bigelow. Valuation Figures Ready In June. Lansing! The state tax commission had u short session a t Detroit in the Hotel Ponchartruin, mainly for the purpose of discussing figures for the coming equalization. "Under the law," said Tax Commissioner Shields, "we are obliged to submit our figures ou the value, of the property of t h e state, and as we have only a small force it means a lot of hard work. We hope to get our work done by next June. Five years ago the board of equalization paid no attention to the state tax commission, and it remains to be seen what course will be pursued next year. Of course the valuation will be much larger, but as yet we have arrived at no conclusions, and we cannot until the necessary data have been collected." Secretary George Lord, who will be a member of the legislature, will leave his position next month, and the board will hold a meeting about December Ui. in I>ansing, to decide on his su""Hsssor.

A. M. Log Rate. The state railroad commission is reporting to the Wayne circuit court that an examination of testimony taken in the D. & M. log r a t e case has not caused the commission to revise its rate schedule. Under the law the commission is authorized to cxTimino the testimony taken in a rate case before judgment. is rendered to determine whether the testimony reveals any reason why the commission should revise its schedule of rates. In the report, the commission announces that no information warranting any revision was produced, and further that. the*e is no known method of computing the cost of operation. On this point the commission declare:, th.tt the verified annual report of the railroad company shows that, the road earns 8.7 per cent, on its total valuation.

CHAPTER XXV.—-Continued. Against both of these theories, I accuse a purely chimerical person namej, Sullivan, who was not seen by any of the survivors—save one, Alison, whom I could not bring into the case. I could find a motive for hie murdering his father-in-law, whom he hated, but again—I would have to drag In the girl. And not one of the theories ex- •lailMd the telegram and the broken N the office force was arriv- Jlf. TiteF were comfortably ignorant of my presence, and over the transom floated scraps of dialogue and the stenographer's gurgling laugh. Mc- Knight had a relative, who was reading law with him, in the intervals between calling up the young women of his acquaintance. He came in Ringing, and the office boy joined in with the uncertainty of voice of 15. I smiled grimly. I was too busy with my own troubles to find any joy in opening the door and startling them Into silence. I even heard, without ,. resentment, Blobs of the uncertain 0 wolce inquire when "Blake" would be i*l>aek. I hoped McKnight would arrive before the arrest' occurred. There were maJiy things to arrange. But when at last, impatient of his delay, I teie- •pfcoaed, I found he had been gone for ^•MlM than an hour. Clearly he was ;if » a i coming directly to the office, and •with such resignation as I could muster I paced the floor and waited. I felt more alone than I have ever felt in my life. "Born an orphan," as BJelwey said, I had made my own way, carved out myself such success as had been mine. I had built up my house of life on the props of law and •order, and now some unknown hand , had withdrawn the supports, and I Vtood among ruins. •>,' I suppose it is the maternal in a woman that makes a man turn to her when everything else fails. The eternal boy in him goes to have his wounded pride -bandaged, his tattered aelf-respect repaired. If he loves the woman, he wants her to kiss the hurt. Tht longing to see Alison, always with mc, was stronger than T was that morning. It might be that I would not see her again. I had nothing to j-ay to her rave o:ie thing, and that, under the cloud that hung over me, I did not dare; to say. Hut I wanted to see her, to touch her hand—as only a lonely man can crave it, 1 wanted the comfort of her, the peace that lay in her presence. And so, with every step outside the door a threat, I telephoned to her. She was gone! The disappointment wan great, lor my need was great. In a fury of revolt against the scheme of things, I heard that she had started home to Richmond—but that she might still be caught at the station. To see her had by that time become an obsession. I picked up my hat, threw open the door, and, obvious of the shock to the office force of my presence, followed so immediately by my exit, I dashed out to the elevator. As I went down in one cage I caught a glimpse of Johnson and two other men going up in the next. I hardly gave them a thought. Then1 was no hansom in sight, and 1 jumped on a passing car. Let come what might, arrest, prison, disgrace, I was going to see Alison. I saw her. I flung into the station, saw that it was empty—empty, for she was not there. Then I hurried back to the gates. She was there, a familiar figure in blue, the very gown in which I always thought of her, the one she had worn when, Heaven help me—I had kissed her, a t the Carter farm. And she was not alone. Bending over her, talking earnestly, with all his boyish heart in his face, was Richey. They did not see me, and I was glad of it. After all, it had been McKnight's game first. I turned on my heel and made my way blindly out of the station. Before I lost them I turned once and looked toward them, standing apart from the crowd, absorbed in each other. They work the only two people on earth that I cared about, and I left them there together. Then I went back miserably to the office and awaited arrest. C H A P T E R X X V I . On to Richmond. Strangely enough, I was not. disturbed that day. McKnight did not. appear at all. I sat at my desk and transacted routine business all afternoon, working with feverish energy. Like a man on the verge of a critical illness or a hazardous journey, I cleared up my correspondence, paid bills until I had writer's cramp from signing checks, read over my will, and paid up my life Insurance, made to the benefit of an elderly sister of my mother's. I no longer dreaded arrest. After that morning in the station, I felt that anything would be a relief from the tension. I went home with perfect openness, courting the warrant that I knew was waiting, but I was not molested. The delay puzaled me. The early part of the evening: waa uneventful. I read until late, with occasional lapses, when my book lay at my elbow, and I smoked and thought. Mrs. Klopton closed the house with ostentatious caution, about eleven, and hung around waiting to enlarge on the outrageousness of the police r,earch. I did not encourage her. "One would think." she concluded you were something you o u g b t n t t o j 0*7 Mr. tanrrcuer.* • Tlwj •scwd «* though you had committed * c r l » e . " "f jn n o ! ssure •. t h a t I dsda'S. •» Wv Klopton," 1 said wearily. "Somebody did; and toe general vefdici aeelJDa. to point my way." She atared at me In bpeechleaa indignation. Then she flounced out. She came back once to aay t h a t the paper predicted cooler -weather, and that she had put a blanket on my bed, but, tu her disappointment, I refuaed to reopen the subject. At half-patst eleven McKnight and Hotchkisa came in. Kfchey has u habit of stopping bib c a r In front of the house and honking until sonus one comes out. He baa a code uf signals with the horn, which I never remember. Two long und a ahurt blast mean, 1 believe, "Send out a box ol cigarettes," and six abort blasta, which sound like a police call, mean "Can you lend me aome money?" Tonight i knew something was up. for he got out and rang the duor bell like a Christian. They came into the library, and Hotchkiss wiped his collar until it gleamed. McKnight was aggressively cheerful. "Not pinched y e t ! " he exclaimed. "What do you think of that for luck! You always were a. fortunate devil, Lawrence." "Yes," I assented with some bitterness, "I hardly know how to coutuin myself lor joy sometimes. I suppose yuu know"—to Hotchkiss--"that the police were here while we were at Cresson, and that they found the bag that 1 brought from the wreck?" "Things are coming to a head," he said thoughtfully, "unlets a little plan that 1 have In mind—" lie hesitated. "f hope so; I am pretty nearly desperate," I said, doggedly. "I've got a mental toothache, and the sooner it's pulled the better." "Tut, tut," sadi McKnight, "think of the disgrace to the firm if its senior member goes up for life, or—" he twisted his handkerchief into a noose, and went through an elaborate pantomime. "Although jail isn't so bad, anyhow," he finished, "there are follows that get the habit and keep going back and going back." He looked at his watch, and I fancied his cheerfulness was strained. Hotchkiss was nervously fumbling my book. I "Did you ever read the Purloined! Letter, Mr. Blakeley?" he inquired. ; "Probably, years ago," I said. "Poe, isn't it?" He was choked at. my indifference. "It is a masterpiece," he said, with enthusiasm. "I re-read it to-day." "And what happened?" "Then 1 inspected the rooms in the house off Washington Circle. I—i made some discoveries, Mr. Blakeley, For one tiling, our man there is left-! handed." He looked around for o u r ; approval. "There was a small rush-! Ion on the dresser, and tha scarfpins in it had been stuck in with the left hand." "Somebody may have twisted the cushion," ! objected, but -he looked hurt, and P desisted. . •'•• "There is only (me discrepancy," he admitted", "but it trOuWee me. According to Mrs. Carter, at the farmhouse, our man wore gaudy pajamas,' while 1 found here only the most Be-1 verely plain night-shirts." j "Any buttons off?" McKnight inquired, looking again at his watch. j "The buttons were there," the araa-; teur, detective answered gravely, "but the buttonhole next the top one was torn through." McKnight winked at me furtively. "I am convinced of one thing," Hotchkiss went on, clearing his throat, "the papers are not in that room. Either he carries them with him, or he has sold them." A sound on the street made both my visitors listen sharply. Whatever it was it passed on, however. I was growing curious and the restraint was telling on McKnight. He has no talent for secrecy. In the interval we discussed the strange occurrence at Cresson, which lost nothing by Hotchkiss' dry narration. "And so," he concluded, "the woman in the Baltimore hospital is the wife of Henry Sullivan and the daughter of the man he murdered. No wonder he collapsed when he heard of the wreck." "Joy, probably," McKnight put in. "Is that clock right, I^awrence? Never mind, it doesn't matter. By the way, Mrs. Conway dropped in the- office yesterday, while you were away." "What!" I sprang from my chair. "Sure thing. Said she had heard great things of us. and wanted us to handle her case against the railroad." "I would like to know what, she is driving at," I reflected. "Is she trying to reach me through you?" Richey's flippancy is often a cloak for deeper feeling. He dropped it now. "Yes," he said, "she's after the notes, of Chirac. And I'll tell yon I felt like a poltroon—whatever that may be—when I turned her down. She stood by the door with her face white, and told me contemptuously that I could save you from a murder charge and wouldn't do it. She made me feel like a cur. I was just as guilty as if I could have obliged her. She hinted that there were reasons and she laid my nttitude to beastly motives." "Nonsense," I said, as easily as I could. Hotchkiss had gone to the window. "She was excited. There are no 'reasons,' whatever, she means." Hichey put his hand on my shoulder. "We've been together too long to let any 'reasons' or 'unreasons' come between us, old man," lie said, not very steadily. Hotchkiss, who had been silent, here eu'.no forward in big moat impressive manner. He put nta hands under his coat-tails and coughed. "Mr. Blakeley," he began., "by Mr. McKnight 3 advice we have arranged a little interview here tonight. If all haa gone us 1 plauued, Mr. Heury Pluekuey Sullivan is by itils lime under a r n s t . Within u very lew minutes lie will hi- here.' "1 wauled iu talk to ium before he was locked up,' Hichey 1 jLtdaiued. "He's clever enough to be worth knowing, and. besides, I'm not so cocksure of his guilt as our friend the patch on ihe seal <>r government. No murderer worthy or the name needs six dilferonr muiives lor the saiue crime, beginning with robbery, und ending with an unpleaiiuuL lather inlaw." We were all silent lor awhile. Mc- Knight stationed himself at a v. iuduw, and Hotchkiss paced the Hour expectantly. It's it ^reut day lor modem detective methods," he chirruped. "While the police have been guardui!.'; houses and .standing with their mouths open waiting fur clews to fall 111 and choke them, we have pieced together, bit by bit, a fabric ••" The doorbell rang, followed immediately by sounds of l'oo.tsteps in the hall. McKnight threw the duor open, and Hotchkiss, raised on his toea, flung out his arm iu a gesture uf superb eloquence.. "Behold your m a n ! " he declaimed. Through the open doorway came a tall, blond fellow, clad in light gray, wearing tau shoes, arid followed closely by an oilieer. "I brought him here as you suggested, Mr. McKnight," said the constable. But .McKnight was doubled over the library table in silent convulsions of mirth, and I was almost as bad. Little Hotchkiss stood up, his important attitude finally changing to one of chagrin, while the blond man ceased to look angry, and became sheepish. It was Stuart, our confidential clerk for the last half dozen years! McKnight sat up and wiped his eyes. "Stuart," he said sternly, "there are two very serious things we have learned about you. First, you jab your scarf-pins into your cushion with your left hand, which is most reprehensible; second, you wear—er—nightshirts, instead of pajamas. Worse than that, perhaps, we find that one of them has a buttonhole torn out at the neck." Stuart was bewildered. He looked from McKnight to me, and then at the crestfallen Hotchkiss. "I haven't any idea what it's all about," he said. "I was arrested as I reached my boarding-house to-night, after the theater, and brought directly here. 1 told the officer it was a mistake." Poor Hotchkiss tried bravely to justify the fiasco. "Vou can not deny," he contended, "that Mr. Andrew Bronson followed you to your rooms last Monday evening." Stuart looked at us and flushed. "No, I don't deny it," he said, "but there was nothing criminal about it, on my part, at least. Mr. Bronson has been trying to induce me to secure the forged notes for him. But I did not even know where they were." "And you were not on the wrecked Washington Flier?" persisted Hotchkiss. But McKnight interfered. * ' T h e r e is no use trying to put the other man's identity on Stuart, Mf. Hotchkiss," he protested. "He has been our confidential clerk for six years, and has not been away from the office a day for a year. I am afraid that the beautiful fabric we have pieced out of all these scraps is going to be a crazy quilt." His tone was facetious, but I could detect the undercurrent of real disappointment. I paid the constable for his trouble, and he departed. Stuart, still indignant, left to go back to Washington Circle. He shook hands with Mc; Knight and myself magnanimously, but he hurled a look of utter hatred at Hotchkiss, sunk crestfallen in his chair. "As for aa I can see," said Mc- Knight dryly, "we're exactly as far along as we were the day we met at the Carter place. We're not a step nearer to finding our man." "We have one thing that may be of value," I suggested. "He is the husband of a bronze-haired woman at Van Kirk's hospital, and it is just possihle we may trace him through her. I hope we are not. going to lose your valuable co-operation, Mr. Hotchkiss?" I asked. He roused at. that to feeble interest. "I—oh. of course not, if you still care to have me, I—I was wondering about —the man who just went out, Stuart, you say? 1— told his landlady tonight that he wouldn't need the room again. I hope she hasn't rented it to somebody else." We cheered him as best we could, and I suggested that we go to Baltimore the next day and try to find the real Sullivan through his wife. He left sometime after midnight, . and Richey and T ware alone. (TO T.K CONTINUED.) m HUSBAND M W H I M FATAL, DUEL WITH M } " • - . 1 s 4 - -i " • . * Aa George Sees the Peer*.

LIVE "CORPSE" AT HOSPITAL Farmer's Back Broken by Falling T r e e — W i f e Ships Him to Surgeons in "Dead Man's Basket." Philadelphia.—John Cramer, a farmer, fifty-nine years old, of Bartonville, Pa., lies at the Pennsylvania hospital with a broken hack. A hugs tree which he was felling suddenly toppled over and pinned him to the ground. Atter Cramer was injured the question arose as to how to obtain the services of the best Philadelphia surgeons. Mrs. Cramer and her friends had to act quickly, and It was decided to ship the farmer to Philadelphia In an undertaker's casket. The casket is called a "dead man's basket," and is of wicker. The Pennsylvania hospital had been notified in advance, and an ambulance waited at the Broad street station for the patient. The baggagemaster s'.owly carried the great oval basket to the car door. Some mistake must have been made, thought the hospital attendants. They drew back, fearing that their wait had been in vain and that their only service would be to carry a body to the morgue. Quietly the train crew explained. The cargo, this time, in that temporary casket was alive. The basket was tightly sealed with wire, which could not bo untied at the station. The return trip to the hospital was quickly made. The wire binding waa severed. With the raising of the lid the pale face of John Cramer waa revealed. At the first glance It was thought that the ride in prison wicker had really been for naughL but the old man waa only asleep in his hay-lined coffin. At first surgeons at the Pennsylvania hospital believed the case to be hopeless. All the resources of modern surgery were drawn upon, however, and Cramer recovered control of one arm and then the other. Soon it is expected that ho will have regained the use of all his limbs and that he will be able to go about, as he did before the accident.

W.

He was married to Miss Jenni* Pierce liar. 23,1898 and to this anion were born four children: Mildred* 12 yrs; Willard, 8 yrs.; Lloyd,5yrb; and Clifford 2 yrs. Besides his wife and children, he leaves one sister and three brothers to mourn his departure: Mrs- Bylinda Randall of Howell, Bslpb, and David of North Hamburg and Anson of Los Angeles, Cal. He also leaves a large circle of friends and neighbors who will greatly miss ^him. Those from Lansing, who attended the funeral were: Floyd Randall, Mrs. Anna Laycox, Mrs. Sarah Stevens and Mrs. Mttta Olds. The funeral was held from the North Hamburg church Wednesday, Dec. 7, at 10:30 a. m., Rev. Albro G. Gates officiating. What a superlatively grand add consoling idea is that of death. Without this radient idea, this delightful morning star, indicating that the luminary of eternity is going to rise, life would darken into midnight melancholy. The expectation of living here, and living thus always would be indeed a prospect of despair- But thanks to that fatal decree that dooms us to die; thanks to that gospel which opens the visions of an endless life; and thanks above all to that Savior friend who has promised to conduct the faithful thrn the sacred trance of death into scenes of Paradise and everlasting delight. Self is the ouly prison that can ever hied the soul; Death the only angel that oan bid the gates unroll; And when he comes to call thee, ariie and follow fast— His waj may lie thru dark new, but it leads to light at but. Our brother now accomplishes without striving, for all problems melt before him, for he has entered the region of reality and deals not with changing effects, but with the unchanging principles of eternity. %* Peaceable People W.

"Miss lirt>- jHtttt, hadn't yuu better ducide tu taku thu Hchuul again oiler Christmas? The new teacher cL:wau't seem to give ttuttttfuctiun, buiue way, and tha tulka are all asking for you. You'd better •ay, uow, that you will take it and h»ve that over with." "Well." answered Miss Urojetta, hesitating, "maybe 1 will. Squire Brown. I'll think it over." Aa Mihs Iirejetta walked homeward over the sunburned grass uud under tho crimsoning maplea her thoughts were busy. Yes, she would doubtWsH be better with the school to look after than she was alone in her quiet cottage. It had seemed at first when her mother left her that she could never stand the loneliness of coming home every night to the empty house. But now she was beginning to think that she could not endure tho lonely aimlessness of these uninterrupted days and nights. Tears dripped over Miss Brejetta's delicate, spirited face In a way never guessed of by her friends. From his vine-covered porch Richaid Daytott, her life-long friend and nearest neighbor, watched her approach with the tender interest he felt in all her doings. How dainty and sweet she looked; so frail and incomixptettt, yet BO supremely self sufficient! Almost as far back as he could remember he had longed to care for her, to protect her, to let his IOYO show itself, yet never in any smallest way had she allowed him to serve or approach her. This strong man, capable of making the world yield him his honest rights, stood Irresolute and defeated before the sprightly indifference of this pretty but independent woman. Unwilling to allow her to pass without a word, the man sauntered to his own front gate in time to intercept her. And Miss Brejetta, seeing him approach, dried her eyes covertly, while there was a little added emphasis to the sugar coated sharpness with which she always treated him, born of her fear leBt he should see upon her face traces of her recent weakness. "Just been pulling my last, beans," remarked Dayton, displaying his earth-stained hands smilingly. "Won't you let me fix yours for you this evening, Miss Brejetta?" He glanced over the dividing fence at his neighbor's garden. "Indeed no, thank you," refused Miss Brejetta emphatically; "[ shall enjoy doing them myself! It is just play to care for that tiny garden, and it gives me something to he interested in, you know." "It. must be lonely for you now," remarked the man with a solicitude that made Miss Brejetta stiffen with resentment. "Do you never feel nervous at night all alone In the house?" "Why should T be afraid? And, beN sides, Mr. Dayton, what, cannot, he cured must be endured. I am alone In the world and RO must make the best of it." Dayton longed with his whole heart in tell her of a solution to her difficulties that, would bring her a devotted protector, but the tilt of her pretty head warned him to desist, and ha merely suggested lamely: "You know my housekeeper would be glad to go over and sleep in the house, and I really think you ought to h a r e her. Miss Prejetta, with so many tramps as there are about juRt now. Won't you let her come tonight, anyway? The boys will be playing pranks that may be unpleasant for you." Miss Brejetta smiled serenely and exasperatingly into MB pleading face. "The boy* will do nothing to annoy me, I am sure, Mr. Dayton," she remarked, pressing on to her own gate. But. when her own front door had been closed with quiet precision, Mias Brejetta's calmness vanished and she Hung herself with angry and undlgmaed haste into an easy chair. "1 wish he would stop it," she cried Atormlly. "I will not have him pitying me and looking after me all the time! Now I shall have to gather thutsv horrid beans or be will never cease pestering me about them! I can just imagine the reuiurkaj that would be made in thlB town If I ullowed him to make my garden!" And Miss Brejetta, having eaten a hasty supper, pinned up her spotlfe^w linen skirt, put un her stoutest gar den glove* mid, inwardly consumed with wrath, aought her diminutive bean patch. "1 had better get It done with."* she whiajjered to herself after the fashion uf lunely people, "because it will he too wet in the tuorniug and too warm during the day. But it just makes uie furious to be breaking my back out here when 1 haven't even cut the leaves of thut new magazine yet." The sunbaked earth seemed loath to part with the vines it had so carefully nurtured through long months, and Miss Brejetta's strength was not great. Her own cosy piazza beckoned enticingly, but the gleam of a cigar end on the neighboring purcb held her to her task. In the welcome dusk she stole Into the house, barring doors and windows carefully. "You are tired," ahe cried defiantly at her reflection in the ball mirror, "and you just hate gardening. You are lonely, too, and you know you uearly die of fright every night of your life. Why don't you own up to it and let people help you when they want to?" The nearest neighbor hi\d watched Miss Brejetta at her bean-pulling with almost angry impatience. "I wonder why she does It—certainly not because she enjoye it. And she splits her kindlings in the shed so I cannot see her—as if 1 could not hear! And she locks tho doors and windows and nearly smothers herself these sultry nights! "I honestly believe," he mused, "that she would he fond of me if she allowed herself to be. She has always managed pretty well by herself so far, but there will come a time when she will not be so self-sufficient. And, by jove, I almost wish something would happen to take down her pride a little, poor girl!" For a long time he sat ciuietly thinking. Then Richard Dayton, one of tho most respected and highly honored man of his town, did a strange thing. Up in tho close, clustered attic he stole with a tiny flickering caadle to: light, and when ho came down noiselessly, he carried some dark, shapeless garments over his arm. Long After Miss Brejetta had retired she lay awake thinking miserably. Scarcely discernible footsteps seemed haunting the darkness, but 6he comforted herself thinking it was boys on their midnight Halloween pranks. Unaccountable night-sounds caused her to shrink nervously, but at last she slept in fitful snatches. Suddenly she sat up, every sense alert. The vibration of the old brass knocker still echoed through tho hall. For a moment she cowered among the pillows, then the thought of some one in trouble nerved her to action. Tremblingly she lighted a lamp, slipped on some clothing and hurried to the door. Without waiting for her courage to fall, sho slipped the bolt, swung back tho door, and let the light shine across—a vacant porch! But down by the gate stood a slouching figure with hat pulled low. "Mr. Dayton—Richard!" called Miss Brejetta faintly, almost dumb with terror. "Here!" called a familiar voice reassuringly, and the nearest neighbor sprang over the end of tho porch rail and took the lamp from her trembling hand. Drawing her out to the shadowed piazza and into his arms, he held her breathlessly. "I heard the bell," ho explained, "and feared you would be frightened! See, dear, it is that strawman— just a Halloween joke! But you do need me, don't you, Brejetta?" "Oh!" she sobbed, her fane against his coat. Then with intoxicating sweetness she surrendered completely. "Dick. 1 want you to hoe the garden, and split the Kindling, and do the whole miserable business! And 1 perfectly hate living alone, and I have been lonely and afraid, and I'm glad I've been neared Into my senses!" "And do you love me a little, Brejetta?" anxiously. "Do you suppose," ahe cried in exasperated tenderness, "that I should have used yon so shamefully if I hadn't, loved you? Oh, you dear, stupid man!" $3.58 RECIPE CURES —<•* R E t y f t V M URIMitoY A^ID $1DNEY T ^ P U i l i E * >»AWA*3W€, SflWklM- ",a».!tyLLiffl.-^Tc'r. • V ; i ) i " — • • * - • • : * 8top« (*ata In tna Bladder, Kidney* and Back. •Wouldn't it be nice within a week or s o to beMirj to any goodbye forever t o the Bculdlng, Urlbbllny, straining, , p r too frequent paasaKu of urine; the^fyrehead and tho back-of-tht-htad achea; the utitcbea and pains In the back; the g r o w i n g taincle wea.kn(.ujj; tspoti before the eye»; yellow «ktn; uluK&litU bowel*; uwoUen eyelids or tinkles; IUK c r a m p s ; unnatural t h o r t breath; ulcepleJPveiw and tho dependency'.' •.' 1 have u recipe for these trouble* that you can depend on, and If you |rant to m a k o a QUICK ltKCOYKRY.i ; yoU\OUght to write uud Kt-t u copy uf it.

Thousands of men and women who have felt the sting and torture of that dread disease, Rheumatism, which is no respecter of age, persons, sex, color or rank, will be interested to know that it. is one of the easiest afflictions of the human body to conquer. Medical science has proven it not a distinct disease in itself, but. a fiyniptom caused by inactive kidneys. Rheumatism is uric acid in the blood and other waste products of the aystern which should be filtered and strained out. in the form of urine. The function of the kidneys is to sift these poisons and acids out and keep the blood clean and pure. The kidneys however, are of sponge-like substance, the holes or pores of which will sometimes, either from overwork, cold or exposure become clogged, and falling in their function of eliminating these isons from the blood, they remain the veins, decompose and settling about, the joints and muscles, cause the untold suffering and pain of rheumatism and backache, often producing "For sixteen long years I have been suffering with a bad case of skin disease. While a child there broke out a red sore on the legs Just in back of j my knees, It waxed from bad to worse, and at last I saw I had a bad skin j disease. I tried many widely known I doctors in different cities but to no j satisfactory result. The plague bothered me more in warm weather than in winter and being on my leg joints It made it impossible for mo to walk, and I was forced to Btay indoors in the warmest weather. My hopes of recovery were by this time spent. Sleepless nights and restless days made life an unbearable burden. At last I waa advised to try the Cuticura remedies [Cutlcura Soap, Ointment and Pills] and I did not need more than a trial to convince me that I was on the road of success this time. I bought two sets of the Cuticura Remedies and after these were gone I was a different man entirely. I am now the happiest man that there is at least one true care for skin diseases. Leonard A.

In an Illinois town a workingman having been informed that a sixth baby had arrived at hia home, exclaimed: "Sufficient," and his neighbors, referring to his having given that name—Sufficient—to tho new arrival, credited him with originality. The Incident resembles a case nearer home, adds the New York Tribune. A New York family was blessed with nine daughters, when the stork brought a tenth one. It was in the days when the slang terra for an ofttold story was a "chestnut," and aa the baby certainly came under that head, ahe received the name, but for suphony's sake the French for the word was employed, and she was called Marron.

Because it is right at the edge of Greater Jacksonville, the fastest growing city in the country- Jacksonville Heights farms begin one mile from where land is selling in town lots at the rate of $3,250.00 per acre. Because it was practically the first of all the Florida colonies to develop and settle— on account of its unsurpassed soil, location, altitude and cheapest shipping facilities. Because 2700 farms have been sold to date and a population of about 700 souls sprung up in one year—and the lands are now settling at the /ate of 40 families per month. Because the Purchasers of Jacksonville Heights Lands Have Made Good _. Settlers and farmers have succeeded. Prices and values have advanced—four schools have been erected. Hard surface roads constructed. Telephone line established connecting up with Jacksonville local telephone. Hotel buildings erected. 2W farms fenced and being developed all in a little over one year. Because it is the Closest Colony to the Best and Fastest Growing City in Florida We opened up our sale on April, 1909, at $20.00 per acre. We have about 200 tracts left, now selling at the advanced price of $30.00 per acre subject to another advance January 1st, 1911.

When the good bishop beheld how well the fields of the Manganja were cultivated, he remarked, "When telling people in England what were my objects in going out to Africa I stated, among other things, that 1 meant to leach these people agriculture; but 1 now see ttlat they know far more about it than I do."

It may not be generally known that Victor Hugo used to draft the advertisements of his own hooks instead of leaving the task to his publishers. His correspondence with his Belgian publishers gives the following example of the- great novelist's advertising style: "After the middles ages, the present time: Such is the subject of Victor Hugo's doftble story. What he did for Gothic art, in 'Notre Dam de Paris' that he has done for the modern world in 'I^es Miserables.' The two books figure in his scheme of work as two mirrors reflecting the whole human life," An encouraging example to those young autbera who cannot make up vthi^r_ mj*«|« fcotv much modesty is **njoin«! by the best literary traditions!

"These machines," said Mr. Ryan, "are killing off so many young men that, really, if you wanted to praise them, you'd have to balance your words as cautiously as the man with the two-cent cigar.

A great rnaes of correspondence has come in during the last three day* from Parral, Chihuahua and Torreon. from business men, lawyers, doctors and quasi-newspaper men, All minimize the disorders of a week ago and all derlare that the government is in control except in a few scattered places. The fact that the insun;ecto leader's whereabouts is not known leads !l Are the great financiers of the coon try beginning t o see a new light? Time was, until recently in fact, whan the men at the head of the big c o r poratlons "kepi their business to themselves," as far M t h e law would allow. Capable men a t thfi head of the big concerns, long realized the weakness of their position, but what was needed obviously, a s in all great reforms, was an unmistakable occasion and a courageous man. T h e occasion aroee In the purchase of t h e Western Union Telegraph company by the American Telephone and Telegraph company, and the man appeared ro Theodore N. Vail, President of the purchasing corporation. It was last December when publio announcement was made that the Gould holdings of Western Union had been t a k e s over b y the Telephone company. On account of the high esteem in which the management of the telephone company is so generally held, great things were predicted as a result of the absorption of Western Union. By the press of the country the "deal" was most favorably commented on, it being widely pointed out that under the direction of such men as Theodore N. Vail and bis associates, the telegraph company waB bound aoou to work itself into a position where It could offer the public far more efficient service than it had ever before been able to offer. But a very few months had elapsed when it became apparent to the new management that a modern and up** to-date appraisal of the company's assets would make possible a far greater degree of efficiency of operation. "Here," they said to themselves, "we've bought control of this property and we know it's immensely valuable, but we don't know just how valuable. These appraisals of real estate and securities owned were made a long time ago. If we have a complete inventory made of every thing we've got we can announce the facts to the public, start * new set of books, and begin our responsibility to stockholders right there." How Inventory Was Taken. The most expert accountants and appraisers to be had were put at the task. Their labors lasted over eight months. Their report and Us publication by the company marks an epoch in finance. It^began by recommending an adjiMment of the difference between the appraised and book values by a charge of 15,595.089 against surplus. Hook values of securities held were reduced to market values, bad and doubtful accounts were "charged off," an allowance of $2,000,000 was made for "depreciation," another of $o00,000 for "reserve," and so on, until the old surplus of $18,807,000 came down to $5,1^6,000. It required courage, the publication of this statement to stockholders, saying in effect: "The property of your company has been revalued: the surplus isn't nineteen mill- 4) .1 4 to the supposition that he is engaged • | u n B a a h a v ( 1 D e r n l r l f o b in an attempt to join some band of •,„„.„ , , + <, .... .. , . , his svmpaihlUrs with arms and oiher ! 0 V e ; b u t flvf mill ions, but it was munitions of war.

The report was ordered published forthwith. Financiers of the old school and speculators generally were aghast. What would happen? Would the bottom drop out of Western Union when the shareholders realized that their propctry was worth $13,000,000 less than they had supposed? But. the amazing thing happened. The stock went up and stayed up. The public, had responded to this remarkable display of frankness and confidence; to the new motto. "Accuracy and Publicity." The full significance of the action of the new board Jfl stated concisely by Harper's Weekly in these words: "Is this policy of publicity and of open-handed dealing with shareholders and public the forerunner of a similar movement, on tho part of other big corporations? Certainly it. is to be hoped that it. is. In the case of these hig companies, dependent upon public patronage And doing business under publio franchise, ran there be any question of the right, of the people to know?

As is often the •case, McKnight's first words showed •our parallel lines of thought. "1 say, Lollle," he asked, "do you remember Dorothy Browne? I3-r-o-w-n-e! T h a t w a s It!" "Dorothy Browne?" I repeated. "Oh — w h y yes, I recall her now. Why?" ' * "Nothing," he said. "I w a s think- ~ts\g about her. That's all. You retneraber you were crazy about her, and dropped back because s h e preferred me?" "1 got out," 1 said with dignity, "be- •t-ause you declared you would shoot yourself if she didn't go with you to s o m e t h i n g or other!" "Oh, why yes, I recall n o w ! " he mimicked. He tossed his cigarette In the general direction of the hearth and got up. We were both a little •conscious, and lie stood with his back t o me, fingering a Japanese v a s e on the mantel. "I w a s thinking," he began, turning fche r a s e around, "that, if you feel ^)r,etty well again, and—and ready to -take hold, that I should like t o go ;away for a week or BO. Things are fairly well cleaned up at the office." "Do you mean—you are going to Richmond?" I asked, after a scarcely perceptible pause. H e turned and faced me, with his hands thrust in his pockets. "No. That's off, Lollie. The Seiberts are going for a week's cruise a l o n g tho coast. I—the hot weather l i a s played bob with me and the cruise WTt%lW.-irtnMlfiiyf' breeze and bridge."

Tho matter between Us lay too deep for s p e e c h . "How's Candida?" he asked. "Martin s a y s a month, and she will tte all right," I returned, in the same tone. He picked up his hat, but he hnrl something more to say. He Mgrtag it out, finally, half w a y to t h e f IntRst Seiberts are not poinR for a ^ M f l s ^ o f days," he said, "and If you 4 m 8 t a day or so oft to go down to TlWuiiond yourself-—" .•"jPUfbaps I shall," I returned, as inllttsWllflj a s 4 could. "Not going yet, m e a t , I double-locked the door of my private office and Huiohvd off some imperative work. B y ten o'clock I w a s free, and for the twentieth time I consulted m y train schedule. At five minute* after ten, with WcKnigbt not y e t in sight, Blobs knocked at the door, the double rap w e had. agreed upon, and on being admitted slipped , in and quietly closed the door behind htm. Hla e y e s were glistening with e x c i t e m e n t , and a purple dab of typewriter' ink g a v e him a peculiarly villainous and stealthy expression. "They're here," he said, "two of 'em, and that crazy Stuart wasn't on, and %aid you were s o m e w h e r e in the building." A door s l a m m e d outside, followed by s t e p s on the uncarpeted outer office, : "This way," aald Blobs, in a husky undertone, and, darting into a lavatory, threw open a door that I bad a l w a y s supposed locked. Thence into a back hall piled high with b o x e s and past t h e presaea of a oookbindery to the freight elevator. Greatly to Blobs' disappointment, there w a s no pursuit. I w a s exhilarated but out of breath w h e n w e e m e r g e d into a n alleyway, and the sharp daylight shone on Blobs' excited face. "Great sport, isn't it?" I panted, dropping a dollar into his palm, inked t o correspond with .his face. "Regular walk-away in the hundred-yard dash." "Gimme t w o dollars more and I'll drop 'em down the elevator shaft," h e s u g g e s t e d ferociously. I left him ly. There w a s a buzzing ou the line. "Is s h e there?" Bam had no suspicious. Was uot I in his mind a l w a y s the Great Unkissed?— which sounda like the Great U n w a s h e d and is e v e n m o r e of a reproach. H e asked m e down promptly, as I had hoped, and thrust aside my objections. "Nonsense," he aald. "Bring yourself. The lady that keeps my boarding- house is calling to uie to insist. You remember Dorothy, dun't you, Dorothy Browne? S h e s a y s unless you have lost your tigure you can wear my clothes all right. All you n e e d here is a bathing suit for day tiruugand a dinner coat for evening." "xRsounds cool," I temporized. "If yotFfcre sure I won't put you uut— very well, Sam, since you and your wife are good enough. I have a couple of days free. Give ray love to Dorothy until I can do it myseir."

On the w a y he confided to me t h a t lots of married m e n thought they w e r e contented w h e n they were merely resigned, but that it w a s the only life, and that Sam, junior, could s w i m like a duck. Incidentally, he said that Alison Mas his wife's cousin, their respective grandmothers having, at proper intervals, married the s a m e man, and that Alison would lose her good looks If she w a s not careful. "I s a y she'B worried, and I stick to it," he said, as he threw the lines to a groom and prepared to get out. "They're Here," He Said. there with his blood-thirsty schemes, and started for the station. I had a t e n d e n c y to look behind me now and then, but I reached the station unnoticed. The afternoon was hot, the train rolled slowly along, stopping (to pant at sweltering stations, from whose roofs the heat rose in waives. But I noticed t h e s e things objectively, not subjectively, for at the end of the journey w a s a girl with blue e y e s and dark brown hair, hair that, could— had I not seen it?—hang loose in bewitching tangles or be twisted into little coils of delight. C H A P T E R X X V I I . It is late, as if he had s o m e t h i n g more ?aay, but the impulse passed. "Well, night," he aald from the door- "Good night, old man." The n e x t moment tho outer door etammed and I heard the engine of 4fc*> Canfionball throbbing in the Then the quiet settled down Id m e again, and there in the light I dreamed dreams. I wag to s e e her. Suddenly the idea of being shut away, even temporarily, from so great a n d wonderful a world became intolerable. T h e possibility of arreat before I could get t o Richmond, was ii**5oua. the night without end. 1 .¾ made my e s c a p e the next morn- 4tsf through the stable bac' of the Iftojpe, and then, by devtouA w i t t i n g ways, t o the office The Sea, the Sand, the Stars. I telephoned a s soon as I reached my hotel, and I had not. known how much I had hoped from seeing hrr until I learned that she was out of town. T hung up the receiver, almost dizzy with disappointment, and it was fully five minutes before I thought of calling up again and asking if she He drew in his w a s within telephone reach. It s e e m e d she was down on the bay staying with the Samuel Forbeses. S a m m y F o r b e s ! It w a s a name to conjure with Just then. In the old days at college I had rather flouted him, but now I w a s ready to take him to my heart. I remembered that he had a l w a y s m e a n t well, anyhow, and that he w a s explosively generous. I called him up. "By the fumes of gasoline!" he said, Woman! Blakeley, the Grrat Unkissed! W e l c o m e to our city!" Whereupon he proceeded to urge m e to c o m e down to the Shack, and to say that I w a s an agreeable surprise, because four t i m e s in two hours youths had called up to ask if irk and Alison W e s t w a s stopping with him, There, and to s u g g e s t that they had a vacant 'Vsftw a conference with Blobs, w h o s e . day or two. 3fts»>U5r03 fairly Jerked with excite-] "Ob—Miss W e s t ! " I shouted polite- "You know her, and she's the kind of girl you think you c a n read like a book. But you can't; don't fool yourself. Take a good look at her at dinner, Blake; you won't lose your head like the other fellows—and then tell me what's wrong with her. We're mighty fond of Allie." He w e n t ponderously up the steps, for Sam had put on weight since I k n e w him. At the door he turned around. "Do you happen to know the Mac-Lure's at Seal Harbor?" he asked irrelevantly, but Mrs. Sam c a m e into the hall just, then, both hands out to greet me, and, whatever Forbes had meant to say, he did not pick up the suhjert asain. "We are having; tea in here," Dorothy said gaily, indicating the door behind her. "Tea by courtesy, bec a u s e I think tea is the only hover- j age that, isn't represented. And then w e m u s t dress, for this is hop night at the club." "Which is as great a misnomer as the tea," Sam put in, ponderously struggling out of his linen driving coat. "It's bridge night, and the only hops are in the beer." H e was still gurgling over this as he took m e upstairs. He showed me my room himself, and then began the fruitless search for e v e n i n g raiment that kept m e home that night from the club. For I couldn't wear Sam's clothes. That w a s clear, after a perspiring Reanee of a half hour. "I won't do it, Sam," I said, w h e n I wh e n I told him who I was. "Blake- had draped his dress-coat on me toga ley, the Fount of Wisdom against l/fashion. "Who am I to have clothing Wnmi n t PlaVotav tho flroit Tin. ttno sspnaarree , lUikkee tthhiiss,, wwhheenn mniaannyv an npnonorr chap hasn't even a cellar door to cover him. I won't do it; I'm selfish, but not that, selfish." "Lord," he said, wiping his face, "how you've kept your figure! I can't wear a belt any more; got to have suspenders." H e reflected over his grievance for s o m e time, sitting on the side of the j bed. "You could go as you are," h e ; aald finally. "We do it ail the time, only to-night happens to be the annual something or other, and—" he trailed off into silence, trying to buckle my belt around htm. "A good six laches," he sighed. "1 never get into a hansom cab aay more that I don't expect to see the horse fly up In the air. Well, Allie isn't going either. She turned down Granger this afternoon, tho Annapolis fellow you m e t ou the stairs, pigeuu-breaated chap—and she always g e t s a head ache on those occasions."' H e got up heavily and went to the door. "Granger is leaving," he aald, "I may be able to get his dinner coat for you. How well do you know her?" he asked, with his baud on the knob. "If you mean Dolly—?" "Alison." "Fairly well," I said cautiously. "Not as well as I would like to. I diued with her last week in Washingten. And—I knew her before that." Forbes touched a bell instead of going out, and told the servant w h o answered to s e e if Mr. Granger's suitc a s e had gone. If not, to bring it across the hall. Then he came back to his former position on the bed. "You see, w e feel responsible for Allie—near relation and all that," he began pompously. "And w e can't talk t o the people here at t h e house—all the m e n are in love with her, and all t h e w o m e n are jealous. Then—there's a lot of money, too, or will be." "Confound the money!" 1 muttered. "That is—nothing. Razor slipped." "I can tell you," he w e n t on. "because you don't lose your head over every pretty face—although Allie is more than that, of course. But about a month ago she went a w a y — t o Seal Harbor, to visit Janet MacLure. Know her?" "No." "She came home to Richmond yesterday, and then came down here— Allie, I mean. And yesterday afternoon Dolly had a letter from Janet— s o m e t h i n g about a second man—and saying she was disappointed not to have had Alison there, that she had promised them a two-weeks' visit! What do you make of that? And that isn't the worst. Allie herself wasn't in the room, but theru were eight other women, and because Dolly had put belladonna in her e y e s the night before to see how she would look, and as a result couldn't see anything nearer than across the room, some one read the letter aloud to her, and the whole story is out. One of the cats told Granger and the boy proposed to Allie to-day, to show her ne didn't care a tinker's dam where she had been." "Good boy!" I said, with enthusiasm. I liked the Granger fellow— since he was out of the running. But Sam was looking at me with suspicion. "Blake," he said, "if I didn't know you for what you are, I'd s a y you were interested there yourself." Being so near her, under the s a m e roof, with even the tie of a dubious secret between us, was making me heady. I pushed Forbes toward the door. "I interested!" I retorted, holding him by the shoulders. "There isn't a word in your vocabulary to fit my condition. I am an island in a sunlit s e a of emotion, Sam, a—an empty place, surrounded by longing—a—" "An empty place surrounded by longing!" he retorted. "You want your dinner, that's what's the matter with you—" I shut the door on him then. He seemed suddenly sordid. Dinner, I thought! Although, as a matter of fact, I made a very fair meal when, Granger's suit-case not having gone, in his coat and some other man's trousers, I w a s finally fit for the amenities. Alison did not c o m e down to dinner, so it was clear she would not go over to the eluhhouse dance. I pled m y injured arm, and a. fictitious, vaguely located sprain from the wreck, as an excuse for remaining at home. Sam regaled the table with accounts of my distrust of women, my one love affair—with Dorothy; to which I responded, as w a s expected, that only my failure there had kept, me single all t * s e years, and that if Sam should he mysteriously missing during the bathing hour to-morrow, and so on.

A simple form of dish-washing machine that a handy man can make at home has been invented by a Minnesota woman. It is designed primarily for use In hotels and restaurants, where tho dishes are too numerous to be washed by hand, but It will be found a useful article in large households. The apparatus consists of a base board with two upright posts in the center of either side. These posts have a rotable shaft passing through them with an eccentric wheel on each end and a crank to turn it. Just above this are slots to receive a cross bar and guide its upward and downward movement, and a wire basket la slung on this cross bar. The machine is placed in sink or tub full of hot water and the basket filled with dishes. The crank Is then turned; and as the eccentric w h e e l s revolve they raise and lower the cross bar resting on them and thus raise and lower the basket, with the result that the dishes are thoroughly rinsed by the water, which should be kept hot enough to clean them thoroughly. German Apple Cake. Mix together and sift a pint of flour, a half teaspoonful of salt and one toaspoonful of baking powder; rub in two tablespoonfuls of butter, then mix to a soft dough or very thick batter with one beaten egg and about half a cupful of milk.

Kuoop about two weeks ago and who has been missing ever since, has at last been captured at Clinton, la., last Thursday, when calling for his mail in the name of A J . Collins. Lines behavior since killing Knoop has been of the Btrangest as ascertained from a diary found in the youths pockets, which gives in detail all of his actions since November 19. when he shot and killed Knoop, took ¢41.00 and fled. The acquisition of this money is mentioned in the first entry as "received for threshing." The diary shows the boy traveled all day and night after the shooting, going to Jackson aud Galien and later to South Bend, Loganswort Jndson, Btreater, Elgin; Rock Island Davenport and'finally to Clinton. Line says he killed Kuoop afttr they had quarreled concerning whether he was to receive | 2 . 0 0 per Any for work he hud performed, or $1.75. Euraged at the farmer's action in paying him at the lower figure, lie got a 32-calibre revolver and shot Knoop dead. Several boxeB of quinine capsules were found in the boy's pockets. As Boon as word of his arrest was received, L. E . Howlett who has been employed as his attorney, wired t<> Clinton to have Line told to do no talking to anyone. It had been hoped that, because of the excellent character the young man had bourn, that he would he able t<i tell another story us soon as he arrived.

Tbe members of tbe company are all artists and they gave an entertainment full of instruction as well as mirth. T b u r songs made a greai bit as all bad excellent voices and knew now to use tbem. Tbe Brass Quartette, composed cornets, trombone and French born made excellent music. Jlr McCarthy was especially uood on tbe violin and gave some fine selections. The bellrininj* act, for which tba company are noted, was a special feature of tbe program. Everybody expressed themselves as well pleased with tbe evenings entertainment. Thj oext number on the course will be kjiven January 14th 1911 by Walden and Company. This number will be a change lrom the other numbers on the course as tbe Company is composed of raagijians who will give an evenings entertainment of magic, ;nirtb and mystery. Mr Walden is one of tbe best magicians on tbe stage and has many tricks that will no doubt be of interest to ail. Mr cleverly, the Handcuff King w li escape lrom all Kinds of handcuff locked up in all positions, as well as from tbe straight jacket, and many othei articles of detention. The trunk mystery is one of tbe special features of this company.

By way of indicating t i e . development which J^as., been reached in trills isiness of s u p p l y i n g iristmas and New Year wveulrs it may be cited it the largest American Manufactory of t h e s e Ifles occupies a five-story tick building with more |nn< 100,000 -square feet of fiber space and a big addi- .Is now being "built to meefthe ever-increasing w<i. In this fountain-head of holiday trophies there w e employed more than 300 persons, many •of them high-salaried- designers, engravers and •color printers. Fully two-thirds of the force of -workers is made up of girls and young women, for .despite all the wonderful machines which have t>een invented of late years to help in the manufacture of Christmas novelties, a large part of the work, must yet be done by hand and in this deft feminine, fingers are to be preferred to men's It may surprise some people to learn that a r»'*jH^-^'taani»fwctory of Christmas cards and like noveli~^_.' vm>J»-bixsy all the year round. One Christmas has no sooner passed into history than the designers are busy trying to evolve new conceits and novelties of various kinds for the next December trade, and using the record of sales for «*' G/J91S AT WO/?sC « • /yAJY//SXC72J#/f/G # S (he holidays just past to guide them in their efforts by the evidence it affords of the trend of the everchanging public taste. Nor is the "busy season"— the "rush peri od" of this activity the interval of a few weeks before Christmas, as many might suppose." On the contrary, it is during the midsummer. When most of us are celebrating the Fourth of July and enjoying an August vacation the workers in tho Christmas card factory are toiling night and day to get out cards with pictures of snow scenes and the like, or course emergency orders are received almost up to Christmas', but the great bulk of Christmas novelties must be in the hands of the dealers four monthB in advance of the day they are to be placed on sale. . And just here it may be added that, by no means all of the Christmas tokens turned out by these wonder workers are low priced. We are wont to think of Christmas novelttes as costing no mr»re than a quarter apiece, at the outside, and yet among the hundreds of different designs produced by a big manufactory each year will be found holiday remembrances that retail at. prices ranging all the way from one cent to $10. Yet. the profits of the manufacturers come principally from the lowprice goods and there is ever a feverish quest for O/SPIAY 07/P/?J novelties. Thr souvenir post card craze was the higgest thing the manufacturers ever encountered. !uid for all that our American factory has prepared 20,()1)0,1)()() post curds for this year's trade it is realized that the lad has seen its best days and the manufacturers are now hunting high and low for something to take its place. The jnoat promising prospect is found in the Ifttte Christmas "seals"" (stamps or stickers) for packages and letters which have come to have such a vogue of late yearB and are now being manufactured by tho dozens of millions a year. There arc some seven or eight main operations in the manufacture of a novelty such as a Christmas card or an ornamental calendar. First of all comes the designing or the making of a preliminary sketch the object of which is to show bow the completed novelty wilr'Jook. This sketch may be painted in water color, made with the aid of an "air brush" or formed by pasting together (in a new arrangement) details taken from other novelties. When a design is approved it goes to the "re producing room." where arrangements are made for manufacture in quantity. Next comes the preparation of the printing plates, dies, etc., and this is followed by the actual printing in quantity. Some of the presses are big enough to print 64 Christmas cards at a time, but some of the more elaborate cards must be run through the presses ten or a dozen times in order to obtain the desired color combinations. Cardboard novelties must be cut and then stamped or pressed -into- shape. The Christmas seals above mentioned are punched by hand or by means of machinery. The arrangement of the various pieces that go to make up a novelty, the adjustments of silken cords, the tying of ribbons, etc., all come in a process known as "manufacture." Finally the cards or novelties are. packed in wooden or pasteboard boxes, all ready to be displayed on the counters of the stores as soon as the holiday spirit in tho air proclaims the approach of the principal holiday of the year. _.,«*• * > ? HE TRUE CHRISTMAS SP1RITICONVIVIALITY OF CHRISTMAS' 4 * M » Toward Our Fellow Men, Toward the Needy and the Lowly Is (ts Message. •i • * * * IF- 1 The old message of good will towwd men is the Christmas spirit, the hope Is that all have been ^Jtiltivating that spirit all the year iflong. If some have not, however, this •. *week Is their opportunity, to secure «U least a fringe of It. '* The birth of Jesus of Nasareth is the special occasion of the festival, tmt all are agreed that the best way to celebrate that momentous event is by keeping the old message of good •rill to men fresh and active la the hearts of all, : ,- f . To.be plain and brief the spirit of Chrifimas is kindness toward our fellow men—toward the needy, ths lonely, the unfortunates in our. civilization's compter life. J.>^ Chjrtstmaa Is the one great festival of the entire Christian world, and no o n e flceeos It who does not Imbibe that'spirit of kindness which was Christ's. Tha—aofats-* o r BtthUhem sounded the note of peace to men, oi good will, and this note hns gone on gathering strength and university down through the ages. All the ceremonials on Christmas day are outranked by the general feeling and desire to increase the happiness of others. For that is what the Christmas spirit is. It is not the cost of the gift that counts, but the spirit that goes with it. The world is growing kindlier and better, and this is why each succeeding Christmas Is greater than any that went before. Christmas and Santa Claus and the joy of children and the brightening of the lives of the to«a fortunate are all great living facts, and it is these facts that constitute the spirit of Christmas. Whoever has that spirit within breast has the true key to Christmas with all Its Joys and happiness. # - • Holiday Season Moves Judge Lenient Towards Old Toper. to Be your honor,' said old George, Whan They Oparat*.

At a dinner in Denver Judge Ben R Lindsey told a story about Christmas conviviality. "There used to be an old fellow of 60." he said, "who got. arrested about twice a week for conviviality. He was always haled before Magistrate Blank, and as the magistrate was about 60, too, a queer kind of comradeship, almost friendship, arose between the two men. "In the late autumn the toper was called away from Denver. He did not return till Christmas time. Tho convivial Christmas spirit in the crisp Denver air was, of course, too much nil | for him, and the day alter his return he was haled before the usual magistrate on the usual charge. "The magistrate, in the green-festooned court room, felt kindly and forgiving. " 'Well, George',' ha said t o the prisoner, you are hare again at last, eh?' " 'Yen humbly. " You've been away some time, haven't you?" " Y e s , your honor; nigh on to three months.' " 'And how many times, George, did you get drunk during that period?' "'I don't like to say, your honor,' old George faltered, 'before all these here people.' " 'Well, said the magistrate, 'take paper and pencil and write it down.' "So George wrote, and the paper was passed up to the magistrate, wbo looked at It and said: "Ah, well, it's the Christmas Beaton, and since you were away, three months, George, and only got drunk 16 times, I'll let you off.' " 'Thank you, judge,' said old Oeorga, aa he left the dook. T o o looked at the paper upside down, though.'" • .

Dr. T. M. Crotbexa of Hartford, (Vice., has come forward wl|h a declaration that is qalte aa Interesting as th« one Doctor Osier disowned, and that ought to attract equally wide attention. He say* that' "there are many reason* for believing that we carry around with u* great reserve ppwers, and unknown energies which are seldom died, and that la old age appeal to thtse powers may give a certain vigcc entirely . unexpected, which lengthens our life and practically overcomes disease." He also eays that "tne man past sixty and from that on to eighty ougbt to be at his very best because life is then no experiment, a*itt he has attained a poet t ion where he can use all his powers to the beat advantage." Doctor Crothers insists that there is no theory in this, but that it "is sustained by a great variety of facts which fortunately are becoming more realized as the years go by." Wil A traveler in the west a decade ago was much amused at the vehicles he saw. They were all kinds of "contraptions." Buggies, "dearborns"— any old thing to ride in. The people out there were living close, faring hard and—sailng money, says the Philadelphia Fress. That's why the per capita savings bank account of Kansas excelB that of all other states. It is astonishingly different today. At the Leavenworth county fair some days ago dozens of farmers came to the grounds In motor cars. They had •aid for them, too. They had raised gh* wk**4 a a f earn to do it. The «C gilding swiftly over a year or so back condemned the "buzz" wagons which frightened their horses, cave them corOdence and a new satisfaction.

OOES NOT W A N T RECOMMENDAT I O N S TO H A V E APPEARANCE* OF PERSONAL I N T E R E S T . Outlines His Views in a Formal Statement From His Home in Sault Ste. Marie. Gov.-elcct Oaborn announces that be favors action tbat will make the term of office of Michigan's governor four years; and-because of bis projected activity t o u r i n g this about, he will Dot be a candidate for nomination for a, second term, Mr. Osbora in his statement sayfc: , "1 shall not be a candidate for governor for a second term. This conclusion has been reached after the consideration of Beveral reasons. During the primary contest and subse quent party campaign I frequently made the statement that 1 was inspired to be a candidate more by a desire to do my duty as a citizen than by a mere ambition to be governor. When I made these declarations 1 was deeply in earnest. 1 am still in the same state of mind. "In my opinion, it is desirable to change the term of governorship from two years to one term of four yeans. Should the legislature consider the submission, of an amendment to the constitution to this end, I do not wish it to be hampered by the possibility of a two-year governor succeeding to a four-year term. "Too frequently a first-term governor Teels obliged to consider and cater to popularity and popular measures in order tp insure a second term- This often involves an access of political appointments, trading of patronage, coercion of legislators and other acts not conducive to efficient government. One of the evil results of this has been the practical assumption or a legislative power by the executive that never seems to have been contemplated by our state constitution. "I wish to confess to a desire to have any suggestions I may make to the legislature or any official acts I may perform removed as far as possible from the slightest intimation that there has been any consideration of future personal or political advantage. By making a one-term declaration at this time I frankly hope to insure that credit for sincerity which naturally attaches to disinterest. The Republican party of Michigan is rich in gubernatorial material of the best character and there can be no embarrassment to either state or party in my decision to accept but one term. "It may be fair to state that a personal work to which I had hoped to devote my life was entirely interrupted by my injection into state politics at this time My one ambition . is to serve the state faithfully for one term and then return to the pursuits of a private citizen, in which capacity one should easily be able to accomplish honor, happiness and rational contenlment." ' & • The rapidity of development in this age is such as to cause many to lose *ight of the fart that some of our rhlef industries are of comparatively modern origin. Cotton spinning has come to be one of the foremost of mjfrufacturcs In this and other countries, says the Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin. But in the present form sVAes been in existence less than a hundred years, the first cotton-spmoiflg mill in the United States having been started in 1811 at Fall River, Mass. That city is preparing to ob serve the centenary of the business, and next year will have an imposing celebration. It may be of interest to know tbat when cotton manufacturing started there Fall River was , as* Troy, a same which was reentil ttt*.

The state association of farmers' clubs in session in Lansing went on record with recommendation* on a dosen questions of national tagisl*: tlon. The resolutions* governing the temperance question were toned down to a general denunciation of the saloon and a recommendation for legislation that would make It impossible to have liquor shipped Into a dry territory. A resolution 'recommending the enactment of a law which would bar the literature of wholesale liquor dealers from the United States mull, was turned down. The question of state-wide prohibition was left untouched. The association condemned the management of the state fair for allowing the sale of liQUor ou the state fair grounds, but no specific charges were made ugainst any director or officer. When the resolutions were presented tbey contained one favoring an amendment of the state constitution in a manner which would permit woman suffrage. The resolution was adopted. The amendment also gave favorable consideration to a resolution which asked national legislation providing for the expenditure of a sum on higbwuys equal to that spent on waterways. The following is a summary of the resolutions adopted tor state legislation: In favor of i h e a p p r o p r i a t i o n of a sum suttWient t o erect a. new auditorium for the MienlKiiii AK'I lculturu.1 college.

Navin, who is a member of the board of control of Jackson prison, a comprehensive plan will be laid before the coming legislature looking toward the rebuilding of the prison on a farm outxide the city, and the ultimate employment of all the eonvicta on state account. The legislature will be asked to appropriate money for the purchase of a farm of severe hundred acres to furnish produce for the prison. If this is serured, 20 acres will be inclosed with a wall, ihe work to be done by convict labor. An appropriation will then be asked for now buildings, the plan being to remove the new step' b'ock now in use and build another. There are fov»r rontracU now running in the prison, the longest being that with the Michigan Seating company, which manufactures fiber chairs. It. will not expire for five years, and by that time the board expects to be able to start on a self-supporting basis by taking over the chair contract and enlarging the binder twine plant, the rest of the convicts to be worked on the.prison farm, all to be placed on a wage schedule. In the meantime the board would favor utilizing the convicts in building good roads. If the present prison is retained a new cell block costing 1225,000 will have to be built and the members of the board are convinced that the entire rebuilding of the institution in a more favorable location and with the advantages of a. farm is by far the better plan. The supreme court has settled a feud that, has lasted 40 years at Owosso bv handing down a decision that a line fence on the farm of William Parsons must be left where it was originally placed. Seward Bills, a neighbor, ana Parsons often fought over the location of the fence. The junketing committee of the hoard of supervisors, of Saginaw, returned and advised that Saginaw county prisoners he placed at work on rounty roads as the only preventative of the tvamp evil. After firing two shots at Mjra. Bert Doyle in her home in Grand Rapids neither shot taking effect. James Ridel, 4-"> years old, a bartender, shot nimself through the temple, living inp.' antlv.

The legislature will he advised by the prison industries commission to purchase large farms for each of the prisons of the state for the employment of as many of the convicts as possible. The members of the commission, as a result of their investigation, favor a move of this kind, and Wardens Fuller and Russell, of the Ionia and Marquette prisons, favor it as weii. The wardens both recommended it to the commission at the meeting in the governor's office Wednesday and told of the success they have had with farm* of small size at present. "I send out men from the prison with no attempt in particular to prevent thir escape and do not have a bit of trouble," said Warden Russeli. "They work well and we raise all our own vegetables. T presume I have had as many as 25 convicts out at work on the farm. If we had more land I should follow the plan on a larger scale.'' "1 have rented land at X~> an acre and worked it. to good advantage," said. Warden Fuller. "It netted us abotyt. 80 cents a day for the convicts' time\ If the state wil! buy the land I will . guarantee it will yield well on the investment, and I wish we had iiOf) acres. I have options on some land now." Gen. Jose Estrada is Dying. Hen.

Although the senate was in session for only a little more than an hour Wednesday, a number of billH and resolutions were introduced. Generally the bills were of a private nature. Amng the exceptions was a bill by Senator Brown of Nebraska looking to the adopting of the railroad legislation of last session, so as to prohibit one railroad company from acquiring control of a competitive, either by lease or purchase. The first bill introduced by Rep. Massey of Tennessee, who has succeeded the late William P. Browalow, was a measure presented today making all Intoxicating liquors transported into any state or territory for delivery therein or remaining for uso therein, subject to the state or territorial laws. The bill is designed to eliminate the exemption of such liquors from the state police laws by reason of their introduction in original packages. The first effort made in the present session in the houBe to have a change made in the tariff law was by the introduction Wednesday by Rep. Sulzer of New York of a bill "to repeal the duty on meats and cattle." All meats and ull cattle imported for use as foods are to be placed on the free list by the bill. "In view of the fact that the meat trust is selling meat cheaper by from 8 to 1,' cents it pound in London than in the United States," said Mr. Sulzer, "it seems that all meats should be on the free list."

' Cotton fields will not do it, apple or- r chards with their great expense of cultivation and the risk to run from thevarlous enemies of the fruit cannot begin to do it. While what Is considered an exceptional case just now 1* presented, there is no doubt that this man's experience may be duplicated by others who care to follow his example. As has been said the growing: of this wheat is but in Us infancy, and wheat growing is still largely confined to other older varieties that do> not yield as abundantly. Even with^ these we have record*- farmers who have gr to the acre., others u'5, others again 25 bushel*. 20 bushels, and some farmers report that amount, it is found that the re. turns from such a yield would be $17 an acre. This wheat will cost to g e t to market, including all expenses,, about $8 an acre, and the farmer* will still have a net profit of about $9 an acre.

And when the endless meal waa over, and yards of white veila had been tied over pounds of hair—or is it, too, bought by the yard?—and some eight ensembles with their abject complements had been packed into three automobiles and a trap, I drew a long breath and faced about. I had just then only one object in life —to And Alison, to assure her of my absolute faith and confidence in her, and to offer my help and my poor self, if she would let me, in her service. She was not easy to find. I searched the lower floor, the veranda and the grounds, circumspectly. Then I ran into a little English girl who turned out to be her maid, and who also was searching. She was concerned because her mistress had no dinner, and because the tray of food she carried would soon be cold. I took the tray from her, on the glimpse of something white on the shore, and that was how I met the girl again. She was sitting on an overturned boat, her chin in her hands, staring out to sea. The soft tide of the bay lapped almost at her feet, and the draperies of her white gown melted hazily into the sands. She looked like a wraith, a despondent phantom of the sea, although the adjective is redundant. Nobody ever thinks of u cheerful phantom. Strangely enough, considering her evident sadness, she was whistling softly to herself, over and over, some dreary little minor air that sounded like a Bohemian dirge. She glanced up quickly when I made a misstep and my dishes jingled. All considered, the tray was out of the picture; the sea, the misty starlight, the girl, with her beauty—even the sad little whistle that stopped now and then to go bravely on again, as though it fought against the odds of a trembling lip. And then I came, accompanied by a tray of little silver dishes that jingled and an unmistakable odor of broiled chicken! "Oh!" she said quickly; and then, "Oh! I thought you were Jenkins." "Timeo Donaos—what's the rest of it?" I asked, tendering my offering. "You didn't have any dinner, you know." I sat down beside her. "See, I'll be the table. What waB the old fairy tale? 'Little goat bleat; little table appear!' I'm perfectly willing to be the goat, too." She was laughing rather tremulously. "We never do meet like other people, do we?" she asked. "We really ought to shake hands and say howare yon." "I don't want to meet you like other people, and I suppose you always think of me as wearing the other fellow's clothes," I returned meekly. "I'm doing it again; I don't seem to be able to help it. These are Granger's that I have on now." She threw back her head and laughed again, joyously, this time. "Oh, it's so ridiculous," she said, "and you have never seen me when I waa not eating It's too prosaic!" "Which reminds me that the chicken is getting cold, and the ice warm," I suggested. "At the time, I thought there could be no place better than the farm-house kitchen—but this is. I ordered all this for something I want to say to you—the sea, the sand, the stars." "How alliterative you are!" she Raid, trying to be flippant. "You are not to say anything until I have had my supper. Look how the things are spilled around!" But she ate nothing, after all, and pretty soon I put the tray down in the sand. I said little; there was no hurry. We were together, and time meant nothing, against that age-long wash of the" sea. The air blew her hair in small damp curls against her face, and little by little the tide retreated, leaving our boat an oasis in a waste of gray sand. "If seven maids with seven mops swept it for half a year as I merely held it she let it lie warm in mine. But when I raised it to iay lips, and kissed the soft, open palm, she drew It away without displeasure. "Not that, please," »he protected, and fell to whistling softly again, her chin in her hands. "1 can't sing," she said, to break an awkward pause, "and BO, when Tm fidgety, or have something on my mind, 1 whistle. I hope you "don't dislike it?" "I love it," I asserted warmly. 1 did; when she pursed her If pa like that I was mad to kiss them, "I saw you—at the station," she sold suddenly. "You—you were in a hurry to go." I did not say anything, and after a pause she drew a long breath. "Men are queer, aren't they?" she said, and fell to whistling again. After awhile she sat up as if she had made a resolution. "I am going to confess something," she announced suddenly. "You said, you know, that you had ordered all this for something you—you wanted to say to one. *But the fact is, I fixed it all—came here, I mean, because—I knew you would come, and 1 had something to tell you. It was such a miserable thing I —needed the accessories to help me out." "I don't want to hear anything that distresses you to tell," I assured her. "I didn't come here to force your confidence, Alison. I came because I couldn't help it." She did not object to my use of her name. "Have you found the—your pa- "tfi •jj but that yon were unhappy, and jA&tt done that M M ef thine beters, a i d ] 1 had nd*«*ht to help you. God —wdU; I'MeW paid uV, "f t h t t t / ' ' u j, knows, T thought you didn't want me to help yon," She heldeout her hand to me and I took it "between both of mine. No word of love had passed between us,, but I felt that she knew and understood. H was one of the moments that come seldom in a lifetime, and tfcea.pniy in great crises, a moment of perfect understanding and trust. Then she drew her hand away and sat; erect and determined, her fingers laced in her lap. As she talked the moon came up slowly and threw its bright pathway across the water. Back of us, in the trees beyond the sea wall, a sleepy bird chirruped drowsily, and a wave, larger and bolder than its brothers, sped up the sand, bringing the moon's silver tu our very f e e t 1 bent toward the girl. "I am going to ask just one question." "Anything you like." Her voice was almost dreary. "tyras it—because of anything you are going to tell me that you refused Richey?" She drew her breath '.n sharply. "No," she said, without looking at me. "No. That was not the reason." CHAPTER X X V I I I . Alison's Story. She told her story evenly, with her eyes on the water, only now and then, when I, too, sat looking seaward, I thought she glanced at me furtively. And once, in the middle of it, she stopped altogether. "You don't realize it, probably," she protested, "but you look like a- -a war god. Your face is horrible." "I will turn my back, if it will help any," I said storiuily, "but if you expect me to look anything but murderous, why, you don't know what I am going through with. That's all." The story of her meeting with the Curtis woman was brief enough. They had met in Rome first, where Alison and her mother had taken a villa for a year. Mrs. Curtis had hovered on :;What sort jof ^ n » ~ , . b * * . w J f d U f r h ^ I demanded. I h^fefot up sityl waa pacinf baoff and i#Ttiard-oa the salft.' I remember kicking savagely at a bit of water-soaked board that lay in my way. , ''Very handsome—as large as you are, but fair, and even more erect" I drew my shoulders up sharply. I am straight enough, but I was fairly sagging with jealous rage. "When mother began to get around, somebody told her that I had been going about with Mrs. Curtis and her brother, and we had a dreadful time. I was dragged home like a bad child.

"The—police h a ^ not interfered with you?" "They haven't had any opportunity," I equivocated. "You needn't distress yourself about, that, anyhow." "But I do. I wonder why you still believe in me? Nobody else does." "I wonder," I repeated, "why I do!" "If you produce Harry Sullivan," she WAS saying, partly to herself, "and if you could connect him with—Mr. Bronson, and get a full account of why he was oh the train, and all that, it—it would help, wouldn't it?" I acknowledged that it. would. Now that the whole truth was almost in my possession, 1 was stricken with the old cowardice. I did not want to know what she might, tell me. The yellow line on the horizon, where the moon was coming up, was a broken bit. of golden chain; my heel in the sand was again pressed on a woman's yielding fingers; I pulled myself together with a jerk. "In order that what you tell me may help me, if it will," I said constrainedly, "it would be necessary, perhaps, that you tell it to the police. Since they have found the end of the necklace—" "The end of the necklace!" she repeated slowly. "What about the end of the necklace?" I stared at her. "Don't you remember'— I leaned forward—"the end of the cameo necklace, the part that was broken off, and was found In the black sealskin bag, stained with— with blood?" "Blood," she said dully. "You mean that you found the broken *end? And then—you had my good pocket-book. Do you suppose, the Walrus said, that Land you saw the necklace in it, and they could get It clear?'* she threw at me once' when she must have known I was , goiag to speak. I held her hand, and as long you—must have thought—" "I didn't think • anything," 1 hastered to assure her. '1 tell you. 1 never thought of anything the ragged edges of society there, pleading the poverty of the south since the war as a reason for not going out more. There was talk of a brother, hut Alison had not seen him, and after a scandal which implicated Mrs. Curtis and a young attache of the Austrian embassy, Alison had been forbtdden to see the woman. "The women had never liked her, anyhow," she said. "She did unconventional things, and they are very conventional there. And they said she did not always pay her—her gambling debts. I didn't like them. I thought they didn't like her because she was poor—^and popular. Then—wo came home, and I almost forgot her, but last spring, when mother waa not well—she had taken grandfather to the Riviera, and it. always uses her up—wn went, to Virginia Hot Springs, and we met. them there, the brother, too, this time. His name was Sullivan, Harry Finckney Sullivan." "I know. Go on." "Mother had a nurse, and I was alone a great deal, and they were very kind to me. I—I saw a lot of them. The brother rather attracted me, partly— partly because he did not make love to me. He even seemed to avoid me, and I was piqued. I had been spoiled, I suppose. Most of the other men I knew had—had—" "I knew that, too," I said bitterly, and moved away from her a trifle. I was brutal, but the whole story was a long torture. I think Rhe knew what I was suffering, for she showed no resentment. "It waB early and there were few people around—none that I cared about. And mother and the nurse played cribbage eternally, until I felt as though the little pegs were driven into my brain. And when Mrs. Curtis arranged drives and picnics, I—I slipped away and went. I you won't believe me, but I had "Did You Marry Him?" I Demanded. an orphan," I said, with a cheerless attempt at levity. "Go on." "If Mrs. Curtis knew, she never said anything. She wrote me charming letters, and in the summer, when they went to Cresson, she asked me to visit her there. I was too proud to let her know that I could not go where I wished, and so—I sent •'oily, my maid, to her aunt's in the country, pretended to go to Seal Harbor, and really—went to Cresson. You see I warned you it would be an unpleasant story." I went over and stood in front of her. All the accumulated jealousy of the last few weeks had been fired by what she told me. Jf Sullivan had come across the sands just then, I think I would have strangled him with my hands, out of pure hate. "Did you marry him?" I demanded. My voice sounded hoarse and strange in my ears. "That's all I want to know. Did you marry him?" "No." I drew a long breath. "You—cared about him?" She hesitated. "No," she said Anally. "I did not care about, him." I sat down on the edge of the boat and mopped my hot face. I was heartily ashamed of myself, and mingled with my abasement was a great relief. If she had not married him, and had not cared for him, nothing else was of any importance. "I was sorry, of course, the moment the train had started, but I had wired I was coming, and I could not go back, and then when I got there, the place was charming. There were no neighbors, but we fished and rode and motored, and—it was moonlight, like this." i put my hand over both of hers, clasped in her lap. . "I know," I acknowledged repentantly, "and—people do queer things when it is moonlight. The moon has got me to-night, Alison. If I am a boor, remember that, won't you?" Her fingers lay quiet under mine. "And so," she went on with a little sigh, "I—began to think perhaps I cared. But all the time I felt that there was something not quite right. Now and then Mrs. Curtis would say or do something that gave me a queer start, as if she had dropped a mask for a moment And there was trouble with the servants; they were almost insolent. I couldn't understand. I don't know when it dawned on me that the old Baron Cavalcanti had been right when he said they were not. my kind of people. But I wanted to get away, wanted it desperately." "Of course, they were not your kind." I cried. "The man was married! The girl Jennie, a housemaid, was a spy in Mrs. Sullivan's employ. If he had pretended tn marry you I would have killed him! Not only that, but the man he murdered, Harrington, was his wife's father. And I'll see him hans by the neck yet if it takes every energy and every penny I possess." I could have fold her so much more gently, have broken the shock for her; I have never been proud of that evening on the sand. I was alternately a boor and a ruffian—like a hurt youngster who passes the blow that has hurt him on to his playmate, that both may bawl together. And now Alison sat, white and cold, without speech.

As ff the-* charges against her of awake o' nights and of eating canary birds whenever she gets the chance were not enough, the doctors have just discovered that for years she has been responsible for the spread of diphtheria. Dr. G. J. Awburn of Manchester, England, having traced an epidemic of this disease in a suburb of that city to a pet cat belonging to one of his patients, has found, after much clever investigation, that all cats are peculiarly susceptible to diphtheritic affections of the throat. He has therefore recently been warning all families who own cats to watch them carefully, and, If they develop coughs, to forbid their being hugged ami petted. Dr. Awburn further recommends that If the cough persists and the cat begins to grow thin to have the animal destroyed at once. The only really safe way, he says, is to let the first wheese fch puBBy's death warrant. ^ " . How It Happened. He was limping down the street with one arm In a sling and both eyes In mourning.

COSTU KISSES AT CHRISTMAS j * T a Onriatmaa dlanar glvan wery JE%. year to toa old folk* afBanltfk JTm **» ^»Pl t a l of the potteries41acrlct in England, a quaint earomony Is regularly observed. % A.t the conclusion of the meal one of the oldest of the women guests ad vances to the platform and kisses the mayor on both cheeks. His worship gallantly returns the salute, and the exchuuge of kisses continues until all the mure venerable dames present have been thus honored. In l urge business establishments, where the assistants live in. a great deul or kissing goes on at Christmas time. Some of the more during spirits amuiiK the male "bands" have been known to make bets with one another as to the number of different girls they would' kiss between Chrtatmas eve and New Year's eye. In a certain London'drapery bouse two or three seasons ago one of these "horrid males" made a record by saluting seventeen different damsels. But he found the game was not worth the candle, for. in addition to a scratched face and u pretty severe pommeling at the bunds of u victim's sweetheart the rash youth iouud his services dispensed with. At another great emporium one Christmas indiscrimiuate kissing created so much trouble that more than a dozen young men were dismissed. Ever since in this particular establishment even the introduction of a sprig of mistletoe during the festl\e season has been enough to insure instant dismissal. A girl who appeared with a sprig of It in her blouse was orderta to put on her things aud leave at once. A. play ful young man who merely pretended to kiss u young lady assistant was hurried off* the premises with his hat and overcoat in his band. The Lancashire factory maid has a little kissing custom all her own that is sacred to Christmas. At this special period she will kiss an overlooker or any other male "hand" In the expectation that she will be rewarded with a shilling for her temerity. Woe betide the ungallnnt worker who fails to part with the coin. He will find his coat sleeves sewed up or nailed to the wall. If the girl herself does not do this her fellow workers will.

In one instance the master was so furious" nt being kissed that he closed his works until New Year's day, thus mulcting the hands in a week's wages. A ludicrous story is told of a young Japanese engineering apprentice In connection with the Christmas custom of kissing. He was serving his time In the north of England and was astonished when a waitress at the dining rooms which he regularly frequented kissed him under the mistletoe. On its being explained to him ttaut n present was expected in return, htsuggested a pair of gloves. The damsel, hewever. had heard that he was immenuely wealthy and gently hinted that something for her neck would be more acceptable. When the present arrived next day she conjured up visions of a pearl necklace aa she tremblingly undid the parcel.

And then, without the slightest warning, 1 realized that she v a s crying. She shook off my hand a n d fumbled for her handkerchief, a n d failing to find it, she accepted the one I thrust into her wet fingers. Then, little by little, she told me from the handkerchief, a sordid story of a motor trip -in t h e mountains witho u t Mrs. Curtis, of a lost road and a broken car, and a rainy night when they—she and Sullivan, tramped eternally and dh* not get home. And of Mrs. Curtis, when they got home at -dawh, suddenly grown conventional a n d , deeply shocked. Of her own Bilf-disdainful consent to possible the hackneyed comialng situation by marrying the .-and then—of his disappearance t i e train.

"I know' ff»'fnnmr* she said, with sn catch i f t ^ a w l a a a . '"When 1 think • Chat I nearly married a murderer— f t mid didn't—I cry for sheer joy." Then i she buried her face and cried again.

I may for- ,- g e t that 1 have a capital charge hang-. •- l a g over my head, and that I may be • arrested at any moment." That brought her out of the hand- ' fceicaief at once. "I meant to be so )i * helpful," she said, "and I've thought .^fekv*»i> •• of nothing but myself! There were W^Tf % . j o m s j ftffngs I meiSnt to t * l you.

Alison turned and called through | faint aroma of good tobacco. I vyas her hands. "Coming in- a moment, Sam," she said, and rose. "It must btvery late: Sam is home. We would better go back to the house." "Don't," I begged her. "Anchovies and juleps and Sam will go on forever, and I have you such a little lime. I suppose I am only one of a dozen or so, but—you a r e the only girl in the world. You know 1 love you, don't you dear?" Sam was whistling, an irritating bird call, over and over. She pursed her red lips and answered him in kind. It was more than 1 could endure. "Sam or no Sam," 1 said firmly, "I am gOinf? to kiss you!1' Hut Sam's voice came strident through the megaphone. "He good, you two," lie bellowed, "I've got Ihe binoculars!"' Aadyfto, under fire, we walked sedately back to the house. My pulses were throbbing—the little swish of her dress beside me on the grass was pai» and ecstasy. I had but to put out my hawj t o touch her, and I dared not. Sam, armed wjttb a megaphone and fleld glasses, bent ofcwfr the; rail and watched us with gleeful malignity. "Home early, aren't youjfc Alison •called, when ws veacfVed Ibe stepa. "Led a duh when my partner had doubled no-trumps', and she fainted. Damn the heart conTentis*!" he said cheerfully. "The other* a*e not here yet." Three Isours later I went up to bed. T had not seen Alison alone again. The noise waa at its height below, and I glanced «4own into the garden, still bright in the moonlight. Leaning against a tree, and staring Latwrestedly into the billiard room, was Johnson. '$••• ife CHAPTER XXWC In the Dining Room. That, was Satnrday night, two weeks after the wreck. The prevfous five days had been full of swfcft-following J events—the woman in the house next door, the picture in t h e theater of a man about to leap from the doomed i train, the dinner at t h e Dallaes, and Richey's discovery that Alison "was thoroughly tired, hut I slept restlessly, dreaming of two detectives* with Pittsburg warrants being held up by Hotchkiss at the point of a splint, while Alison fastened their hands with a chain that was broken and much too short. I was roused about dawn by a light rap at the door, and, opening it, I found Forbes, in a pair of trousers and a pajama coat. *U waa as pleasant a s most fleshy people a r e when they have to get up at night, and he said the telephone had been ringing for an hour, and he didn't know why somebody else in the blankety- blank house couldn't have heard it. He wo\ildn't get to sleep until noon. As he was palpably asleep on his feet, I left him grumbling and went to the telephone. It proved to be Hichey, who had found me by the simple expedient of tracing Alison, and he was jubilant, "You'll have ta come back," he said. "Got a railroad schednle there?" "I don't sleep with one in my pocket," I retroted, "hot if you'll hold the line I'll catyjsut the window to Johnson.'" H e ' s probably got one." . y' "Johnson!" I could h e a r the laugh with which Mc.Khight cemprehended the situation. He wa» stlB chuckling when 1 came badL "Train to Richmend at 6c30 a, m„" I said. "What time* is ft new?" "Four. Listen, L*llle. We've got him. Do you hearTTttrough the woman at Baltimore Then—the other woman, the lady of tae> restaurant"— he was obviously avoiding names— "she is playing our oarda for UK—No —I don't know why,, a*i I don't care. But you be at the rticubatsr to-night at eight o'clock. IT yot* caa*t shake Johnson, bring him, bless him." To this day I believe th» Sam Forbeses have not recovered from the surprise of my uncx*>ected arrival, my one appearance at dinner te» Granger's clothes, and the note «a my dresser which informed them the- next morning that 1 had folded my teats like the Arabs and silently stolen away. For at half after fiv«- .Tohnsott and 1, the former as unlrtmiisttrye tin e^er, were on our way through the dust to the station, throe miles away, and by four V the girl in the case. Tn quick succes-j that afternoon we were in Washington had come our visit to the Carter J ton. The journey had r*en uneventplace, the finding of the rest of the j fnl. Johnson: relaxed under the in- •firs r;i telegram, my seeing Alison there, and the strange interview with Mrs. Conway. The Cresson trip stood out in my memory for its serio-comic horrors What I and its one real thrill. Then—the discovery by the police of the sealskin bag and the bit of chain; Hotchkiss producing triumphantly Stnart for Sullivan and his subsequent discomfiture; McKnight at the station with Alison, and later the confession that he was out of the running. And yet, when I thought It all over, the entire week and Ita events were two sides of a triangle that was narrowing rapidly to an apex, a point And the said apex was at that moment in the drive below my window, resting hla long legs by sitting on a pipe The Home 'flftV5* was cfillfhg Alison- <tkrougu a megaphone, from the veranda. It sounded like 8am ''All-ce," fM called. "AK-ee! I'm going to have some auchov'es on toast! AU-ce!M fcleither of us heard.

Before we get into Washington I had naade an arrangement with Johnson to surrender myself at two th« following afternoon. Also, I had wtrai to Alison, asking her if she would carry oat the contract she had made. T*e detective saw me home, and left me there. Mrs. Klopton received me with digreserve. The very tone.in which] me when I would dkae told UnU something was wrong. ng basket in her hands, "it was an orderly,, well conducted household- You can ask any. of the neighbors. Meals were ouoked and, what's more, they wcru eaten; there was none of this 'htre one day und gone the next" business." "Nunseuse," I observed. "You're tired, that's all, Mrs. Klopton. And f wish you would go out; 1 want to bath^.', " i hut's not all," she suid with dignity, from the doorway. "Women cuuiinji and going here, women whose shoes I am not fit—I mean, women who are not fit to t d K h my ^hoes— coming .here as iueoleVt aa you please, und askiug fur yuu." "Cood heavens!" 1 exclaimed. "What did J'uu toll them—her, whichever it was ?" "Told her you were sick in a hospital and wouldn't be out for a year!" she said triumphantly. "And when she said she thought she'd come in und wait for you, 1 slummed t h e door on her." "What time was she here?" "Late last night. And she had a light-hatred mau across the street. If j eli« thjoiight I didn't see him she don't 1 know me." Then she closed t h e door and !eft me to my bath and my reflections. At-five minutes before eight I was at the Incubator, where 1 found Hotchkiss and McKnight. They were bending over a table, on which lay Mc- Knight's total armament—a pair of pistols, an elephant gun and an old cavalry ruber. "Draw up a chair and help yourself to pie," he said, pointing to the arsenal. "This is for the benefit of our friend Hotchkiss here, who says he is small and fond of life." Hotchkiss, who had bjewi trying t o get the wrong end of a cartridge into the barrel of one of t h e revolvers, straightened himself and mapped lit* face. "We have desperate people to handle," he said pompously, "amii we m a y need desperate means." , "Htrtehktss is like the smarll boy whose one ambition was to have people grew ashen and tremble at t h e mention of his name." McKnight jibed. Hut t h t T were* serious enough, both of them, under it all, and wtww they had told me what they plannedi. F was serious, tot). . . . . . . "You're compounding a felony;:' I remonstrated, when they had explainodi "I'm not eager to be locked' away, but, by .lore, to offer her the stolen not<« in.-tiftfhange-l'or >.<rKillivan!"' ,_,; •; "We haven%&ot either of them,.you know," McKflight remonstrated, "and we won't havw, if we don't start. Gfcmo along, Fido," tor Hotchkiss. The plan wa» simplicity Itself. According, to Hotchkiss, Sullivan was* to meet BionsonH*. Mrs..Conway's apwf$t raent a t 8:30 | N t night with the note*.

One thing cannot fall to Impress every vlbitux to Bethlehem, and. indeed, to the Holy Land generally, who is Imbued with true Christian faith and a proper sense of the sanctity of the location and of the events that have transpired there, and that is the irore than remarkable correspondence between tho things and places shown us today as having been associated with the life and work of the Saviour and other events that enter into the structure of our religious faith and the descriptions and accounts of them, as furnished us in the pages of the Holy Scriptures. They agree with them In every respect and' H Is Impossible, after care-; fully considering and comparing them, to doubt their Identity, so exactly are they in accord with the Bible narrative.. The work in the fields, the arrangement of the buildings, the very articles of diet and clothipg of ancient days are plainly recognizable in the doings and surroundings of today. Indeed, where modern methods have not hecome obtrusive the manners and customs of the people remain much the same as lid the days of the presence on earth of the Saviour. Between the descriptions given in tfte Bible of localities, climatic and geographical conditions, dfcturces, etc., of thesff times and tti»se of today there t» hardly any discrepancy, .even 8 skeptic, rtfhsidVfing this remarkable accord of circttmstances with the Biblical narrativw, cannot but be convinced of its veracity; to the believer fit comes as a vranderful conviction, a satisfactory corroboration or encouragement to see things aB! those" wfto described them so 'graphically •aw them so long ago.—Columbian; Magazine, All members of the local Hrfe of the Are requested to consult with E their officers concerning the •" Great Cash Prize Contest For All Hives In the County Only members in good stan are eligible.

W. Chadwick, a civil engineer of Ann Arbor, aud publisher of a number of similar and highly satisfactory county maps, proposes to collect the necessary information from a personal search o£ the recoJds aud canvass of the territory, with which to make the map. £f this map is published, which will depend upon its receiving the high apprecation as similar maps have done elsewhere the people of Livingston county can be assured the most complete, accurate and well made up yet published in this part of the state. Not a map like the old atlasses whiciisold at from $1U to 115. This one will be a cloth map in a much handier and compact form of a wall map, containing all the features of the atlasses such as land owners names property lines, acreage, houses-, roads and in addition a directory of great value and other new map ideas. Another fine part is that these maps will be sold at the price of $2.85 to subscribers, a price thata within reach of all. Sample maps brought from othar counties which have been seen by many, speak of the work, and a study of these at your first chance will convince you of their individual as well as public value and use. As the work progresses agents o£ the publisher will call at every home in the county for the purpose of correcting t h e rough township plats, explaining the maps and to ascertain whether or not the necessary 2000 orders needed to publish the map can be obtained. They will give to subscribers signed guarantees stating clearly the contents, quality and price of the map so as to leave no misunderstandings. \\ atch for the canvassers for the Chadwick map and directory of Liviugton county; also see the papers of later issue for they will have much of interest to all about the maps.

With their theb^ HI peril ui every KLe[i, 1 *>I> Christmas shoppers, including uiaiiv women and children, .icr;:in bled live milt's over broken, treacherous Lake Krie ice, slipping' and crawling on their hands and knees, ami finally reached Sandusks. ()., haft frozen, alter the steamer l-aki'side had lain six hours immovable in Cie Hoes. They were quartered in lintels and lodging houses, unable tu return to iheir homes on Kelley's island. Middle Hass island and I'ut-in-Hay, and it is probable they will remain several days, and possibly over Christmas, for there is no steamer able to buck the mammoth ice banks thut have risen and no way to reach these places except by steamer. Just uue hour after the foot party arrived in Sandusky the- l a k e s i d e tore loose from the floe and made her dock, bringing 15 other passengers, all w o m e n , w h o were afraid to risk the ice. She was to have made a return trip to Toledo, but will probably he held in port, as many of her steel plates are badly damaged. The Lakeside is the only steamer running between Sandusky and Toledo at this s e a t o n of the year. Men with the aid of ropes assisted the womeu and children over the bides of the vessel, and the party set out for shore. Fifteen women and children decided to remain. The constant fear that the ice would shift, leaving t h e party adrift on a floe which might be swept into the lake, unnerved the women and made the task for the men difficult. In addition there w e r e several small children in the party, one barely ti years old. Through the darkness stifled cries would announce that someone had fallen into a half-hidden crevass. The ».vho!e party would stop while willing hands rescued the unfortunate. Then all would presu forward into the gale again. Kour hours after they left the ship the adventurers readied the shore. .Many were bleeding from contact with sharp pinnacles of ice, all were numb with cold, the women were faint and the children too exhausted to cry. If is feared the condition of several will prove critical. Mrs. Stetson Gets Eddy Cross. The will of Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy, founder of the Christian Science church, was filed for probate. The bulk ol the $2.000,000 which Mrs. Eddy is estimated to have left goes to the .Mother church at Bos ton. The most interesting tiling about. the will is that Mrs. Augusta E. Stetson of New York citv is liequeathed the handsome piece ot ,'ewelrv known as the "cross of diamonds." It is in the form of a large brooch, two or more inches in diameter, and is one of the most valuable pieces of jewelry which Mrs. Eddy possessed. This bequest conies as a surprise to Christian Scientists, especially as the beneficiary is now excommunicated from the church, it is ali'eadv b"ing said that Mrs. Eddv in. fact had au abiding affection for .Mrs. Stetson, and that, the outcome of her dimoultb'S in the church was not of M^s. Eddy's doings, or m ' h e r n c s n n a l bidding. L o n m e r Is Exonerated.

An Alaskan Luncheon. Runners of woven Indian basketry, with white drawn work doilies at each of the 12 covers, were used on an oval mahogany table. The doilies were made at Sitka. In the middle of the table a mirror held a tall central vase of frosted glass, surrounded by four smaller va6es, nil tilled with white spring blossoms. The edge of the mirror was banked with the Bume flowers. Four totem poles were placed on dollies in the angles made by the runners. Place cards were water colors of Alaskan scenery. Abalonc shells held salted nuts, and tiny Indian baskets held bonbons. The soup spoons were of horn, several of the dishes used were made by Alaskan Indians, and the cakes were served on baskets.

Following it, an attack on us appeared in their editorial columns; sneering at the claims w e made particularly regarding Appendicitis. We replied through the regular papers and the "weekly" thought we hit. back father too hard And thereupon sued for libel. The advertisement the "weekly" attacked UR about claimed that in many caaewof appendicitis an operation could be avoided by discontinuing indigestible food, washing out. the bowels and taking a predigestPd food Grape- Nutn. Observe we said MANY cape? not all. Wouldn't that, knowledge he a comfort to those who fear a aurgeon'B knife as they fear death? The "weekly" writer said that was a lie. We replied that, he was ignorant of the facts. He was put on the stand and compelled to admit he was not a Dr. and had no medical knowledge of appendicitis* and never investigated to find out if the testimonal letters to our Co. were genuine. A famous surgeon testified that when nn operation was required Crai>eNu?s wnuld not obviate it. True. We never claimed that when an operation waft required Grape-Nuts u-oulri prevent it. The surgeon testified bacteria IgermRl helped to bring on an attack and bacteria was grown by undigested food frequently. We claimed and proved by other famous experts that undigested food was largely responsible for appendicjfia. Wc showed by expert testimony tha* many case* are healed without, a knife, but by stopping the use nf food which did not1 digest, and when food wart required again it was helpful to use a predigested food which did not overtax the weakened organs of digestion. When a pain in the right side apprs.ru it is not always necessary to be rushed off to a Cereal Co., Ltd., Gave to Bring Out Facts hospital and at the risk of death be cut. Plain common sense s h o w s the better way is to stop food that evidently has not been digested. Then, when food is required, use an easily digested food. Grape-Nuts or any other if you know it to be predtgested (partly digested before taking). W e brought to Court analytical chemists from New York, Chicago and Mishawaka, Ind., who swore to tho analysis of Grape-Nuts and that part of the starchy part of the wheat and barley had been transformed into Rugar, the kind of sugar produced in the human body by digesting starch (the large part of food). S e m e of the State chemists brought, on by the "weekly" snid Grape-Nuts could not be called .1 "predlgested" food because not all of it was digested outside the body. The other chemists said any food which had been partly or half digested outside the body was commonly known ns "prerligested." Splitting hairs about the moaning of a word. It is sufficient that if only one-half of the food is "predigesled," it is easier on weakened stomach and bowels thnn food in which no part is predigested. To show ihe facts we introduce l)r. Thos. Darlington, former chief of the N. Y. Doard of Health, Dr. Ralph W. Webster, chief of the Chicago Laboratories, and Dr. B. Sachs, N. Y. If we. were a little severe in our denunciation of a writer, self-confessed Ignorant about. appendicitis and its cause, it i s possible tho public will excuse us, in view of the fact, that our head, Mr, C. \V. Post; has made a lifetime study of food, food digestion and effects, and the conclusions are indorsed by many of the best medical authorities of the day. Is it possible that, w e are at fault for suggesting, as a Father and Mother might, to one of the family who announced a pain in the side: "Stop using the food, greasy meats, gi^Yles, mince pie, cheese, too much starchy ' a S p l e n d i d C h a n c e food, etc., etc., which has not been digested, then when again ready for food use Grape- Nuts because it is easy of digee*iO»t" Or should t h e child be at. once e e r t e d est t o a hospital and cut? - - ^ V •, . ^ We have k n o w n of many c a a w e r e e f e j a i *tfeft> - approaching signs of appendicitis h a v e <Wiappeared by the suggestion being followed.

INTERESTING INQUIRY BEGUN present day is a fur cry in point of time, distance and customs of celebration. Aside from tho church services there is much of interest in the laud of "Mo'sieur" at Christmas. The day is chiefly for children, though, of course, the grown-ups lose sight of the real meaning of it no more than do the fathers and mothers' of our own land. In France the great symbol of Christmas is the mistletoe. All over Northern France it is cut iii carloads, carried to the quaint quays of seaport towns and shipped to England— for John Bull comes nowhere near supplying the Christmas demand for mistletoe in his own land. Just before Christmas the French lads and lassies go out into the hoary old forests and search for mistletoe. The boy who sees the first tuft gives, a shout of joy, climbs the tree, cuts it, and is carried back in triumph with his prize, a3 king of the feast. T h e mistletoe is hung above the entrance to a door and the young girls pass beneath it, one by one, to be kissed by the first lad who catches them. On all Paris streets at Christmas mistletoe is for sale, and it is a real Christmas necessity. A queer superstition clings to this winter blossom in the minds of the ignorant French peasants—the burning of the mistletoe. Ugly practices and crazy exaltation have been known to take holti of an entire village, with the superstitious excitement attending the burning of the mistletoe. The custom is, apparently, an ancient one from the Celts. A part of the blossom is broken up into little bits, placed in a pan and held over the blazing Are.

There is no week of festivities lasting until cue first day of the year, as in this country. Christmas festivities in England are^ probably more fully enjoyed tiiau iu any other country. Many of the old English customs have been transplanted to America, but many of them are still known only in the country across the sea. In no other country are tho festivities more joyfully welcomed than in England, where the "old honor," as it is called, has not tied. In that country it is the-custom on Christmas eve, after the usual devotions are over, to light large candles and throw on the hearth a huge log, called the Yule log, or Christmas block. At court and in the homes of the wealthy an ofilcer, named the Lord of Misrule, is appointed to superintend the Christmas revels. 1¾ Scotland a bimilar officer is appointed ami is called the Abbot of Unreason. This is merely one mode erf creating an abundance of fun, but long years ago this officer was really appointed to superintend the festivities. In the year 1515 the office was abolished by un act of parliament. The w>ign of the original Ix)rd V>f Misrule started at Halloween and continued until Candlemas day. The favorite pastimes which he now presides over are gaming, music, conjuring, dipping for nuts and apples, dancing and "fool plough," hot cockles, blind man's buff, etc. In England the favorite dish for dinner at this season of the year is the boar's head with an apple or orange in his mouth and set off with rosemary, plum pudding and mince pie. The English children look forward even more eagerly to the Christmas season than the American children. It is their Thanksgiving and Christmas combined. The English Christmas season lasts from the night before December 25 until the first day of the new year, and everything is merry during that time. The season long years ago wan celebrated to a greater extent in England than it. is today on account of the fact that the heads of many of tho churches complained that the season should be more sacred and not so much given over to the joyous proi '-•/•^P^fefcltR r r J@M <*• fchoir bursts forth, in glad, 'j%Bs*ie*n t cadence, the ringing «f the "Gloria in Excelsis."

Then trwy keep a safe distance from the table. The German children believe in Santa Claus until they become abou* 10 years of age.

It was only a year ago that the colonel was in the hospital undergoing a severe opeintion. The surgeon said the colonel would die. The colonel said he would not die, and he did not. Has Intertstlng Task. A commission composed of six members of congress and two non-official associates 1B just now engaged in an Investigating work which several of the members declare is the most interesting which ever took their attention. The commission's rndeavor is to find some means by which damage suitR brought by injured employees against their employers may ho adjusted without recourse to the courts and without the tremendous cost which even small damage cases inflict upon the county, the Et^.t.e, or it may bo tho federal fcorernme^t. In many countries in Europe there arc law« which provide that the employer shall pay .1 fixed sani for injuries, and the laws have been found to w r k well. In the United States them is a constitutional dimcuUy in tho way of the passage of laws like th-Te of Europe, and one of the la'-nrs of th" commission will be to find a V7.iy oT getting around \h^ obstacle of thu constitution • without injuring the integrity of th^O-rent Document, itself.

Meantime statues of other men much lens well known tp fame have been completed, erected and dedicated. The Grant statue when it in finally flulwhed will stand in the grounds of the iiotaulcal garden* facing the eapitol. There was a Ioug delay lu selecting the Mite because of tremendous opposition to the place which the committee had given its sanction. The warfare of worda waged for weeks, but finally the Hutaulcttl garden site was authorized. One of the reasons why mauy people do not want the statue placed where the committee decided It ahould stand was that in order tu make room for it four magnificent trees wuuld have to be sacrificed. The true* were historic ami were known as tha "Crittenden I elms." The trees werer Hot cut down but were removed to another place, | but on account of their age it is a | question whether they will survive. Hundreds Lose Jobs. Secretaries, clerks, messengers and doorkeepers of the house of representatives have marked Saturday, March 4, 1911, as a black letter day. It may witness the blotting OXil from the pay roll of The names-of hundreds of employees most of whom have I served the house of representatives I through the lung years (if unbroken Republican rule. Majur Alexander McDowell k'ff Pennsylvania, veteran of the Civil war and ' veteran of the congressional service, 1 is the clerk of the house of representatives, a job of prominence and of much i legislative importance. Major Mc- : Dowcll is one of the story-tellers of ! congress. Members say that his spins ; a better yarn than either Joseph G. I Cannon, Champ Clark or Chauncey M. j Depew, the men who usually are considered to be veritable mines- at aueci dote. j The clerk of the house is gooi com- J pany and the Democrats as well as the Republicans have so foumf him, [ but the major's Republicanism is of j tho kind in which no man of his party can find a Haw and therefore, although he is popular and the best of raconteurs, the Democrats on coming into power will sever his services with congress, a bit reluctantly perhaps, but none the less surely. Now that one comes to think of it, it is a mistake to say that March 4 will be a black letter day because as a matter of fact, unless there shall be an extra session of congress, most of the employees of the present house will continue to draw pay until the iiext house convenes, for except in the event of calling au extra session, the clerks and the door keepers end some other employees must continue in the service during the summer mouths to cure for the eapitol; but most of the employees while still drawing their salaries will have- Tittle to do until next December, when in their cases flie real black letter day will dawn. Pinchot Versus Taft. !t recently has been reported that Theodore Roosevelt and Gifford iMnc h o t ' h a v e fallen out. Mr. Pinehot's Washington friends say that the rumor is a joke of the flrnt rank, and that if by any chance there should be a basis of trvith in it, the country haa a case of severed friendship for the like of which the history of comradeships can furnish few parallels. Tho country knew months ago that Mr. Pinchot and Mr. Taft had fallen out. The president haa had the last shot at the forester, but it may be lhat Mr. Pinchot will return the shot In kind. Last summer 76 persons In the employe of the forest Bervlce were killed and nearly 200 were Injured while fighting forest fires In the northwest. When the casualty lists were all In Mr. Pinchot said publicly that the loss of life and the Injuries to the men of the service were due to ] the fact that congress had boen nig- | gardly in its appropriations. Mr. j Pinchot was bold enough to lay the ! blame on the shoulders of individual j members of congress whom he called by name. These members resented ] tho implication that they were re- • sponsible for a policy of murderous ! economy. i Mr. Taft got back at.

W 4 p m ^ ***>• A census of the Dominion of Canada will he made during 1911. It will show that during the past ducade a . remarkable development has takiA place, and, when compared With t h o population, a greater percentage of in* crease lu industries of all krada t h a * has ever been shuwu by any country? Commerce, ruining, agriculture aad railways iuivw iaade a atuady marchv ouward. Thu population will be considerably over U.UUO.UUO. Thvaaaada of milea uf railway lines have been conetructlou sinco tho last census was taken ten years a|jo. This construction waa made msceasary by the opening up of the now agricultural districts iu Western Canada, in which, there have been pouring; year a l t e r year au Increasing number pt settlers, uutll the present year will wiUieaa settlement of over 300,01)0, ur a trifle. lews than ouu-third of tho immigratlou to the United States during the aaat> period with Its y^.UOO.OUU ot1 populatioa. Even with these hundreds of thousands of iiBwcomera, the great majority of whom gu upon thx? land, thezo is ttill available room, tor huadreda of thousands additionaL T h o ceu^us llgures will therefore shew a great---a vast—increase in the number of farms under occupation, as well aa in the output of the farms. When the figures of the splendid Immigration are"added to the natural Increase, the total will surprise even tho moat optimistic. To the excellent growth that tile western portion of Canada. will show may largely be attributed the commercial and industrial growth., of the eastern portion of Canada. All Canada is being upbuilded, and in, this, transformation there Is taking" part the people from many countries, b u t only from those countries that produce the strong and vigorous. A a : some evidence of the growth of t h e western portion of Canada, ln agricultural industry, it is instructive to point out t h a t over 100,000 homesteads of 160 acres each have been, transferred to actual settlers in t h e past two years. T M B means 25,00(1 square miles of territory, and then.' when Is added the 40,000 160-acre preemption blocks, there is an additional lft.000 square miles, or a total of 35,- W*0 square miles—a territory as larga as the State of Indiana, and settled within two years. Reduced to the. producing capacity Impeiatlve on t h a cultivation restriction of 60 acres of cultivation on each ICO-acr© homestead within three years, there will be within a year and a half from now upwards of 5,000,000 additional acrea from this one source added to the entire producing area of thq Provinotjfc of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and A4* berta. 'V In 1901, at tho time of tha taa4 census of Canada, successful agrtavJ* ture in tho Provinces of MaadUtfkav Saskatchewan and Alberta waa a s experiment to mauy. Thare w e r e skeptics who could not believe t h a t It was possible to grow thirty, forty and even fifty bushels of wheat to t h e acre, or that as high as one hundred and thirty bushels of oats to the acre could be grown. The skeptics are not to be found today. The evidence of the hundreds of thousands of farraera is too overwhelming. Not only have the lands of western Canada proven their worth In the matter of raisins an the smaller field groins, but for mixed farming, and for cattle raising there Is no better country anywhere. The climate Is perfectly adapted to all these pursuits as well as admirable for health. The Dominion government literature, descriptive of the country* Is what all that aro Interested should read.

Purpose is the very soul of existence. There is little need that wo press this fact home. The average man grasps its truth instantly. As we stand upon the threshold of the New Year, however, we do well to consider a certain phase of Its meaning - t h a t which applies to the things that are new. We naturally like what is new. There is a certain charm about variety. When life presses strongly upon us with its burden of responsibility and its pressure of care there i3 ever the temptation to throw off the old and take care of the new. We respectfully suggest that the problems of life cannot be solved by some patent process; old responsibilities cannot be shaken off by the adoption of fantastic theories of religion and morals, there are no short cuts to truth. With this In mind, what shall be the truest nttltude of the thoughtful man toward the possible variety of the , N e w Year. T m e , It may be a variety closely resembling that of a year ago; the c o m m o n p l a c e n e s s of life's experiences is only too apparent. To twin without effort is a m i s n o m e r ; to attain without sacrifice Is to eliminate Joy; to look for an easy path is to prove the worthloaanesa of ***h a life's attainment*, fio, in view*of these suggestions, what Bhall b« our attitude toward the New Year and its purpose? Let there be joy in work, moderation in pleasure, faithfulness in friendship, energy in service, loyalty to truth, openmimiedness iu research, openheartedness to all men. May we abhor only that which is superficial and hypocritical, and prove our candor and frankness by living above the thought of more profit. Furthermore, let there be "honor (o whom honor in due, custom to whom custom, fedr to whom fear." Courtesy rises supremely higher than obsequiousness, of course; the former is gentle and self-respecting, the latter is servile and self-condemning. Invest the mind with noble possibilities and the heart with holy aspirations, be charitable, sympathetic, cheerful, strong-hearted, fearless, free and undeflled. Let those about you know that these old truths have boeii found of you full of new meaning and interest, and them can be little doubt but you will do much toward the betterment of your kind. The world stands in need of men who possess poise of character, balance of soul and vision of usefulness. Morality teaches us that it is better lo be true than false, pure than licentious, jrave than cowardly. Spirituality does better than this, for it keeps men unsound by persecution, undaunted by opposition, uncomplaining in the presence; of hardship, hopeful for the future, bearing reproof and criticism thankfully, and above all headed toward the right coal. ?J/ .'

In reapouae to a query for plaiu for u moderate-priced house to accunimodate 26 brooding suwa aud the usual complement uf yiKa, the Country Lrcuileuiun publishth the folluwln «: For the brood sowb it la beat t-i have tepurate coti? like those described by PjoteHHor Shaw of the Michigan Fig. 1 — Movable Cot for Brood Sow. Station, from whoae bulletin on the subject the following engravings are made. Sows and pigrt should be kept uway from the main or winter pen as much ua possible. The sow should have plenty of exercise, plenty of green and succulent food, and access to the ground. These cots offer ideal summer conditions botli to HOW and litter. Fig. X is « good cot for a sow that Is ubout to farrow, .since she cannot lie down close to the sides und thus overlie the young pigs. A cot like that tihown iu Fig. 2, however, gives better ventilation and is preferable in very "hot weather. ThiB is built tixS, with vertical sides 3 feet high, with board roof, half pitch. The center boards on the sides are hung on hinges to open in hot weather. Note also 'lie simple way of ventilating at rather than in a molut hollow. Next, sufficient yardage, which you *ay you have, should be available. Large lots, where aucculent food can bu grown, are to be preferred to small exercise pens, which cannot be kept healthful in a warm clluaute. The pig should naturally be fattened in the lute fall, and none carried over but the breed ing stock. Experiments beyond uum ber have shown that it is not profit ablu to feed either old or heavy hogs. The rule ought to be tu have elghtrnonths- old pigs weigh at least 200 pounda and tit for slaughter. Such plga ought never to s e e tho Inside ot a costly permanent pen, but ought to go to tho slaughter house directly from the lots and the cots. Use c e m e n t floors with overlays for the piga to lie on. The drawing BhowH this clearly; tho overlay being hinged to the side of the pen, so that it may be raised up und the lloor beneath pruperly cleaned. Note also that it Is in the cornel- of the pen and away from the feeding trough. It Is bedded with fresh bedding once a week. T h e Fig, 2—A Six-by-Elght Cot. the highest point of tho roof, Cover the openings in the sides with woven wire. Such'a cot contains 1G0 feet of stock lumber, UO feet of matched stuff, UO feet 4 by ty 12 feet 4 by 4, 44 feet 2 by A, and ought to be made by a carpenter in a couple of days, A floor can be made for it if desired for winter quarters, using two-inch stuff cut In lengths to rest on the skids, which are wider than the sills, Do not fasten the sills to tho skids, as the latter are the first to rot. Where tho pigs do not come late in the fall or too early in the spring, it is better to use such a cot as the permanent home of the sow, keeping her there during the winter and compelling plenty of exercise by putting her food at a considerable distance from the cot, and not using too much bedding, but enough to keep her warm and comfortable. Such cots are used also for fattening pigs. A movable hog cot is better in most cases than a permanent pen, as it keeps the pigs away from any central place, which Is sure to become permanently contaminated, muddy in wet weather, dusty in dry, and dirty all the time. If a permanent, hog-house is to be built, it should be located on a knoll The Arrangement of the Pen. overlay here described is made from inch lumber, with inch cleats below to hold the hoards together. A 2 by 4 surrounds the affair to hold the bedding in place, nailed to the boardB and reinforced by a triangular piece of scantling nailed to the 2 by 4 and to the floor. It is not necessary to go into details in the description of the pens. The cut shows how the 10 by 14 pen is arranged, with swing door at one corner, lifted by a rope leading to the front of the pen; abundant windows and ventilation; the widening out of tho door frame to prevent tho pigs from getting their noses under th(> door when closed; the feeding trough, with swinging door over it, to keep back the hogs when feeding, and par- Tin* t«cU>o„ tryikfes & pint of cough Byriip—4noM*li M> last a. family a laug limit You couldn't bui'Stt fuuoli or a* gootl rough s)irup fur |2iW>.

ENGLISH BREED OF DORKING "I have been afflicted for twonty years with an oh::tinHe skin dij called by s o m e M.

For the last three years 1 havo been unable to do any labor, and Buffering intensely all the time. Every morning there would be nearly a dustpanful of scales taken from the sheet on my bed, some of them half as large as the envelope containing this letter. In the hitler part of winter my skin commenced cracking open. I tried everything, almost, that could b e thought of, without any relief. The 12th of Juno 1 started West, in hopes I could reach tho Hot Sprlags. 1 reached Detroit and was v,o low I thought 1 should have to go t o & * hospital, but finally got as far aa Lansing, Mich., where I had a sister tffing. One Dr. treated me about two weeks, but did me no good. All thought I had but a Bhort time to live. I earnestly prayed to die. Cracked through the skin all over my back, across my ribs, arms, bnnds, limbs; feet badly swollen; toe-nails c a m e off; finger-nails dead and hard as a bone; hair dead, dry and lifeless aa old straw. O my God! how I did suffer. "My sister wouldn't give up; said, 'We will try Cutlcura.' Some w a s applied to one band and arm. Eureka! there was relief; stopped the terrible burning sensation from the word go. They Immediately got Cutlcura Resolvent, Ointment and Soap.

Looks Like War in Beet Industry. The first steps towards an organized effort to secure a higher price for sugar beets from the Michigan sugar factories were taken w h e n the Michi- Kan Sugar Beet Growers' association was formed by growers from Shiawassee. Tuscola, Saginaw, Lapeer, Genenee, Gratiot, Isabella and Bay counties. The territory included in these counties covers the acreage of all the sugar factories in eastern Michigan, including Owosso, but not I.>ansing. The growers will demand $t>.60 per ton for beets testing 12 per cent, sugar and 40 cents for each additional one per cent. of sugar content, as against $4.50 and S3 1-3 c e n t s , the universal price in Michigan. H e r m a n Horton of Bay county, w a s evicted president; 3. N. McHride. Shiaw a s s e e , and George Ridgeman, Tuscola, vice-presidents; M. S. Habcock, Hay, secretary, and E. B. Cook, ShiawaSBee, treasurer. E. F. Tyrell of Detroit, field manager of the Gleaners' Go-operative union, appears to have been the man who w a s behind the organizing move. l i e told the farmers that he had Interviewed General Manager Wallace of the Michigan Sugar company, which controls six factories out of the 1C in the state, and that the latter had declared the sugar plants would shut down before any increase asked was granted.

It g i v e s a history or the department's , work from December 31, 190b, to July 1, 11410, a s well as the annual report from J-uly J. 1WJ, to June 30, i»10. Succeeding reports will covwr t a e ssoue fiscal year. According to the 181.0 report, state reward was paid on approximately 187 m i l e s of road, about equally divided between stone, macadam and gravel. During the aanie length of time t h e department received application* for reward for 392 miles of road. From the organisation of the department to the beginning of the last fiscal year, 341.09 miles of state reward road were built, f 2M,12G paid and a total of $201,130.75 reward money w a s still pending. I^aat year 2Q4J378 miles wert; constructed and $137,327 paid In rewards. Meridian w a s the only townbhip in Ingham county building state reward roads Last year. The township expended |2.079JJ3 for 1,160 tulle* and received a reward of |&80 from the state. One of the principal features of the report which la filled with interesting tables, is the table which tmowe just exactly what each township did in state reward road construction last season, as well as the money expended and received. Since the state reward l a w became effective, Ingham county has built 6.1G0 mlleB of state reward m a d s and received $3,580 from the state. l o o s i n g township received $2,500 In reward money. T h e heavy work of preparing the work w a s performed by Chief Clerk Randall and road experts w h o have Inspected the report, declare it IB by far1 the most valuable publication the department has given out.

"The American Associated i Fair association is made up of r e p r e s e n t s t l v e a of 33 state boards," said Mr. ' H a n n a n . "We get together every year to e x c h a n g e ideas and get pointers. Last, year State Railway Commissioner George W.

The secretaries of the N e w York and Indiana fairs were s o pleased with the •way w a received and shipped out goods til at. they have promised to send on their live stock exhibits again n e x t year. "I think several of the s t a t e fair m a n a g e m e n t s will take up the matter of getting a railway commissioner to handle their transportation problems. An official can do it much *»asior •^-and better than a urlvate citizen. Demand Settlement Cash. The most discussed topic in the s t a t e h o u s e Is the bills of Otto Kirschner. attorney from Detroit, and T h o m a s K. Barkworth, attorney from Jackson, for $25,000 each for lc^al s e r v i c e s in connection with the celebrated railroad charter and tax causes. TheBe t w o bills are supposed to be the last p a y m e n t to the two attorneys for their s e r v i c e s in connection with the two c a s e s . W h e n the bills were presented to the s t a t e board of auditors the members s a t up and took notice. lor they were ill-prepared to meet BUCII an obligation with a depleted treasury, and there arc many important questions involved in the s e t t l e m e n t of these bills. Secretary of State Martindale and Land Commissioner Russell, two of three members of the Btate board of auditor*, think the bills are exorbitant, and say they will oppose payment. Accordiug to the record on hie in the auditors' department, on April 27. 1904, at a meeting of the state board of auditors, which at that time wan composed of Secretary of State Fred M. Warner, State Treasurer l>aniel McCoy and State iJind Commissioner Edwin A.

The matter of submitting the question ot local option In Montmorency county at the spring election was brought before Judge Knieiick in circuit court at l i i l l m a n . Attorney Kltuei K. Smith represented 1 he board ot supervisors and Pliny Marsh the local optionists. The board of supervisors refused to submit the proposition at the October meeting, holding that of ;'L'S n a m e s signed to said petition 4.". had asked to have their names withdrawn, leaving an insufficient number ot petitioner-. It required 2SS tor the n e c e s s a r y number. Mandamus proceedings were started by T. K. h e w i s . of iiiltman. An order to s h o w cause w a s issued by Judge Kmerick and on hearing today the court issued a writ compelling the board to reconvene and submit the question of local option to the electors. It is generally believed that local option will carry at the spring election. 21 Soo Safoonists to Be Arrested. As the result of an investigation made by secret service officers of the Indian bureau it is alleged that -I of the 24 liquor dealers in Satilt rite, Marie1 will be arrested on a charge of selling liquor to Indians. Al least feur agents of tin; bureau have been investigating local conditions during the past few weeks, each of them remaining from ."J to 15 days. Accompanying the agent would lie two Indians who would make t h e purchases, und a bottle of liquor would be bought which was afterward? labeled wth the name of the sclier, dale o! purchase and conversation at the time, The evidence is said to be conclusive and as a result the dealers are awaiting the blow that they know must soon fall, and wondering 'who the lucky three are, "fen -m.-- * u » -jr • * < » mm DNEPBIT r^Denelictf U) Condensed Milk for Ice Cream. "The use of condensed milk Is a recent innovation In ice c r e a m manufacture," said President J. F. Kelley of Grand Rapids In his address before, the Michigan Association of Ice Cream Manufacturers. "There in nothing more sanitary than the manufacture of condensed milk, and now about 75 per cent, of the ice cream In the United States is largely composed of condensed milk. Condensed milk m a k e s a dryer cream, which docs not become coarse grained. T h e use of condensed milk is not to cheapen the manufacture, but rather to improve the grado of the product." In order that tbey may have tne same a d v a n t a g e s given in other Mates. a c o m m i t t e e composed of William Parks of Benton Harbor, J. J. McDonald of Owonso and Harry Q«cr of Cadillac w a s appointed for the purpose of m e e t i n g the railroad c o m m i s s i o n February 15 to request that the express rate on ice cream be lowered. The subject of homogenized raw material was discussed at s o m e length. The idea is a new one In this country and is simply a method of laying in a supply of butter fat w h e n it is cheap, for use during the months w h e n s w r e t cream and butter are harder to secure. The me-thod is to churn the cream and mako what is known as "sweet" butter— that is, butter without salt—and w h e n the butter fat is needed this is very finely divided and m i x e d with s w e e t milk, making a composition very much like the original cream, but. w h i c h cannot be gathered into butter again.

A "Weekly" printer] some criticisms of the claims made for our foods. It. evidently did not. fancy our reply printed in various newspapers, and brought snlt for libel. At the trial some interesting facts c a m e out. Some of the chemical and medical experts differed widely. The following farts, however, were quite clearly established: Analysis of brain by an unquestionable authority, Geoghegan, shows of Mineral Salts, Phosphoric Acid and Potash combined (Phosphate, of Potash), 2.91 per cent, of the total, 5.23 of all Mineral Salts. This is over cme-half. Beniinis, another authority, shows "Phonphnrlc Acid combined" and Potash 7?..44 per cent from a total of 101.07. Considerable, more than one-half of Phosphate of Potash. Analysis of Grape-Nuts s h o w s : Potassium and Phosphorus, (which join and make Phosphate of p o t a s h ) . Is considerable more than one-half of All the mineral salts in the food. Dr. Geo. W. Carey, an authority on the constituent elements of the body, says; "The gray matter of the brain is controlled entirety by the inorganic cell-salt, Potassium Phosphate' 'Phosphate of Potash). ThJ» salt unrtea with '«• *4bu«a*n and by the addition of ox y gam cerates nerve fluid or the gray matter ot the brain. Ot course, there i s a.trade of other salts and other organic matter in nervp fluid, but Potassium Pho8pn»ts) te t h e chief factor, and has the power wttfcu* Maelf to attract, by IU o w » ; law of nffinity, all things needed to manufac tore the elixir of life." Further on he says: "The beginning and end of the matter is to supply the lacking principle, and in molecular form, exactly aR nature furnishes it In vegetables, fruits and grain. T o supply dcfklcnciea—this is the only law of euro." The natural conclusion Is that, if Phosphntn of Potash is the needed mineral c l e m e n t In brain and you use fond which does not, contain It, you have brain fag because its dally l o s s Is not supplied. On the contrary, If you eat food known to be rich in this element, yon place before the life forres that, which nature demands for brain-building. In the trial a wneer w a s uttered because "Mr. Post announced that he had made years of research in this country and s o m * clinics of Europe, regarding the effect of tho mind on digestion of food.

I thought I had kept my sense of direction, but I crashed without warning into what, from the resulting jangle, was the dining table, probably laid for dinner, I cursed my stupidity in getting into such a situation, and 1 cursed my nerves for making my hand shake when i tried to strike a match. The groan had not. las l l k e d at his w «t K This ear. atch. Then ht "C*°_1 gracious!" he exclaimed, hhs ^'head*;Cir5(f.rt o n n n p wide, "I believe it topped. I'm afraid we arc lute." tf* were late. My watch and Hotch agreed at nine c'alock, and, with discovery that our man might come and gone, our zest, in the *W>ture began to flag. MeKnight oned us away from the door anil the bell. There was no response, no sound within. He rang It twice, the last time long and vigorously, without result. Then he turned andlooked at us. "1 don't half like this," ho said. T h a t woman is in; you heard me ask he elevator boy. For two I had seem It when he did. Ttat )r waa ajar about an inch, and a JW wedge of rose-colored light >wed beyond. Then, with both mea my heels, 1 stepped into the priv corridor of the apartment and fed around. It was a square r e tlon hail, with hata, and a couple chairs, tc taltBrtr of rose-colored fast aad a desk light over a writing le across aiade the room bright and Sbeerful. It was empty. V Q M *f us wars comfortable, The 1 braced myself against, the table and struck the match sharply against, the sole nf my shoe. It flickered faintly and went nut. And I hen, with nut. the slightest warning, another di: h went off the tabic, It fell with a llmnsnnd splint* rings; the very air seemed broken into crashing waves nf sound. 1 stood still, braced against the table, holding the red end nf the dying match, and listened. I had not long to wait; the groan came again, and I recognized it, the ery of a do.g in straits. I breathed again. "Come, old fellow," I said. "Come on, old man. Let's have a look at you." I could hear tho thud of his tail on centsj the floor, hut ho did not move. He only whimpered. There is something companionable in the presence of a dog. .and I fancied this dog in trouble. Slowly 1 began to work my way around the table toward him. "Good boy," I Haid.as he whimpered. "Wmli tod the light, which ought to here or other around here, bearing ths dog pad softly toward me around the table. I recall even that I had put the matches down aad could not find them. Then, with a ^ u r s t l n g horror of the room and Its content* • ofe tb% ,«abj»erty£ dark around me* l,turue4 and mad* fqr.tue door by which I had .entered. . I could not find it. I felt along the endloas waiutfcotlng, past miles of walL Toe dog won beside me, I Lhlpfc, but he wtus part and parcel now. t o : my excited mind, with the Thing under the table. And when, after aeonti of search, 1 round a knob ami stumbled iuto thu reception ha.ll, 1 was as nearly in a panic an any man could be. I was myself again lu a second, and by the light from the hall I led the way back to the tragedy I had stumbled on. Uronuon still sat at the table, his elbows propped on it, bis cigarette still lighted, burning a holts in the cloth. Partly under the tuble lay Mrs. Conway, face down. The dog stood over her and wagged hits tall. MeKnight pointed silently to a large copper ash tray, filled with usliea ami charred blta of paper. "The uotes, probably," he said ruefully. "He got them after all, and burned them before her. It was more thau she could stand. Stabbed him first and then herself." Ilotchkiss got up and took off his hat. "They are dead," he announced solenmly, and took his notebook out of his hatband. MeKnight and I did the only thing wo could think of drove Hutchkiss and the dog out of the room, and closed and locked the door. "It's a matter for the police," MeKnight asserted. "I suppose you've got, an officer tied to you somewhere, Lawrence? You usually have." We loft HotcbklsB in charge and went downstairs. It was MeKnight who first saw Johnson, leaning against a park railing across the street, and called him over. We told him in a few words what we had found, and he grinned at me cheerfully. "After awhile, in a few weeks or months, Mr. Ulakeley," he said, "when you get tired of monkeying around with the blood-stain and finger-print specialist upstairs, you come to me. I've had that fellow you want under surveillance for ten days!" CHAPTER XXX. Finer Details. At ten minutes before two the following day, Monday, 1 arrived at my office. I had spent the morning puting my affairs in shape, and in a trip to the stable. The afternoon would see me either a free man or a prisoner for an indefinite length of time, and, in spite of Johnson's promise to produce Sullivan, I was more prepared for the latter than the former. Blobs was watching for me outside the door, and it was clear that he was in a state of excitement bordering on delirium. He did nothing, however, save to tip me a wink that meant "As man to man, I'm for you.1' I was too much engrossed either to reprove him or to return the courtesy, but I heard him follow me down the hall to the small room where we kept outgrown law books, typewriter supplies arm, incidentally, our wraps. I was wondering vaguely if I would ever hang my hat on its nail again, when the door closed behind me. It shut firmly, without any particular amount of sound, and I was left in the dark. I groped my . way to It, irritably, to And it locked on the outside. I shook it frantically, and waa rewarded by a sibilant whisper through the keyhole. "Keep quiet," Blobs was saying kuskily. "You're in deadly peril. Tho police are waiting in your office, three •f 'em. I'm goin' to lock the whole bunch in and throw the key out of the window." "Come back here, you imp of Satan!" I called furiously, but I could hear him speeding down the corridor, and the slam of the outer office door by which he always announced his presence. And so I stood there in the ridiculous cupboard, hot with the heat of a steaming September day, musty with the smell of old leather bindings, littered with broken overshoes and handleless umbrellas. I was apoplectic with rage one minute, and choked with laughter the next. It seemed an hour hefore Rloba came back. He came without haste, strutting with new dignity, and passed outside my prison dnor. ' Well, I guess that will hold them for a while," ho remarked comfortably., and proceeded to turn the key. "I've got. 'em fastened up like sardines In a can!" he explained, working with !he lock, "(lee whiz! you'd might to ' hear Vni!" When h^ got hi:; breath i after tlic shaking I gave him, he be- 1 g,vn to sputter. "How'd I km lm t attsmbled over something, and 1 dfww b#ek my root almost instantly. "Did 1 Mtp on yon. old manr* 1 exc l n l s l l l —d bent to pat him. I rea e t j j ^ f l f e i t f a t a f i U g soddaaly and demanded sulkily.

"iiown the elevator shaft." There was a gW.m of indignant, satisfaction through his tears of rage and humiliation. And so, while he hunted the key In the debris at the bottom of the shaft, I quieted his prisoners with the assurance that the lock had slipped, and that they would be free as lords as soon as we could Had the janKor with a pass-key. StnMrt went down finally and discovered Blobs, with the key In his pocket, Ulllag the engineer how he had tried to ea*e me from arrest and failed. .**>•» fttuart came up he was almost shssifui but Blobs did nut appear agata that day. 8lmultan«s*M with the finding ol t>.e key c a l l sUlufcldsa, aad we went In together. T Cheek hands with two men who, wJtft fttftfiklttk made a not '*•*•' :.i , • < H - • very animated group. The taller one, an oldish man, lean- and hard, announced his errand at once. "A Pittsburg warrant?" 1 Inquired, unlocking my' cigar 'drawer. "Yes. Allegheny county haa oa» wumed jurisdiction, the exact locality where the crime was committed belug in d o u b t " He seemed to be the spokesman. The other, shorter and rotund, kept an amiable silence. "We bppe you will see the wisdom of waiving extradition," be went on. "It will save tin"e." "I'll iHjme, of course," I agreed. "The sooner the better. But I want you to give me an hour here, gentlemen. 1 think we can interest you. Have a cigar?" The lean man took a cigar; the rotund man took ihrce, putting two in bis pocket. ' Huw about the catch of that door?" he inquired Jovially. "Any danger of It gulag oh" again?" Heally, considering tho circumstances, they were remarkably cheerful. Hotchkisu, bowever, was uot. He paced the floor uneasily, his hand's under his cuat-talls. The arrival of MeKnight created i diversion; he carried a long package and a corkscrew, and shook hands with the police and opened the bottle with a single gesture. "1 always want something to cheer on these uccasiuiaa," he said. "Where's the water, Hhikeley? Everybody ready?" Then in French he tuasted the two detectives. "To your eternal discoinnture," be said, bowing ceremoniously. "May you go home aud never come back! If yuu take Monsieur lilakeley with yuu, I hope you choke." The lean man nodded gravely. "Prosit," he said, liut the fat one leaned back and laughed consumedly. Hutchkiss finished a mental synopsis of his position, and put down his glows. •'Gentlemen," he said pompously, "within live minutes the man you want will be here, a murderer caught In a net of evidence so hue that a mosquito could not get through." The detectives glanced at each other solemnly. Had they not in their possession a sealskin bag containing a wallet and a bit of gold chain, which by putting the crime on me, would leave a gap big enough for Sullivan himself to crawl through? "Why don't you say your little speech before Johnson brings the other man, Lawrence?" MeKnight inquired. "They won't believe you, but it will help them to understand what is coming." "You understand, of course," the lean man put in gravely, "that what you say may be used against you." "I'll take the risk," I answered impatiently. It took some time to tell the story cf my worse than useless trip to Plttshnirg, and its sequel. They listened gravely, without interruption. "Mr. Hotchkiss here," I finished, believes that the man Sullivan, whom we are momentarily expecting, committed the crime. Mr, .MeKnight ls inclined to implicate Mrs. Conway, who stabbed Hronson and then herself last night. As for myself, I am open to conviction." "I hope not," said the stout detective quizzically. And then Alison was announced. My impulse to go out aud meet her was forestalled by tho dttectives, who rose when I did. Me- Knight, therefore, brought her in, and I met her at the door. "1 have put you to a great deal of tTOiible," I said contritely, when I saw hev glance around the room. "I wish 1 had not—" "It is only right that 1 should come," rhe replied, looking up at me. "I am the unconscious cause of most of It, I am afraid. Mrs. Dallas is going to wait in the outer office." t presented HotchklBs and the two detectives, who eyed her with Interest. In her poise, her beauty, even in her gown, 1 fancy she represented a new type to them. They remained standing until she sat down. "I have brought the necklace." she began, holding out a white-wrapped box, "as you asked me to." ! passed if, unopened, to tho detectives. "The necklace from which waa broken the fragment you found in tho sealskin hag," I explained. "Miss West found It nn the floor of the car. near lower ten." (TO UK ."(INTTNTKIU Knowledge Of the World.

Fire Marshal Jame3 Iloran and 28 firemen were killed in a lire which caused ¢1,250,000 damage to the warehouse and stock of Morris & Co., packers, and for hours threatened the whole stockyards district. The injured will number more than TO, listing being difficult because they were rushed in ambulances and private automobiles to hospitals and homes in many sections of the city. The fire had been hedged in and its spread checked, but efforts to save any of the buildings originally attacked by the llames are vain. An overhanging wooden canopy fell from the beef house of Morris & Co., where the fire sta.ted, carrying with it tons of red-hot bricks and debris upon two companies of firemen aud the chief, crushing them to death aud encasim; their bodies in a veritable furnace, into which their comrades were unable to dig for several hours. Nearly all those who were not killed outright when the walls fell were roasted to death before help could reach them. Assistant Chief Wm. TUirroughs and .Lieut. Fitzgerald were with the marshal under the canopy when it fell, receiving .specific orders for directing I he fight against the ever-spreading flumes in other quarters and they went down to their death wtli Marshal iloran. Other firemen, witnesses of the fate of their chief, deserted f o r j | brief time other parts of the blazing sfructurr and sought with the'r bare hands to drag apart the glowtfig bricks and debris which eoveref! the body of their chief anil his companions. Finding this a vail effort they obeyed again tho direction of Assistant Marshal .Seyierlich and redoubled their efforts to ah it in the spreading area of Maine. Bursting Pipe Starts Fire. The flre was first discovered at about 4 o'clt k by a watchman in the Morris & Co. beef house at Fortythird and l,oomls streets. An ammonia pipe, bursting, started spontaneous rornbustion that spread so quickly tho watchman barely had turned in the fire alarm hefore the flames l>«gan bursting from the building. Fir« Marshal Horan at his home on the west side heard the second call for fire apparatus ar#1 hurried to the stockyards In his motor. Hy the time of his arrival hi* assistants who had reached the scene earlier had abandoned the effort to »»•«» the beef houses and were endeaVoring to head off the rush of fire loward other buildings. Flames were I»ouring out of several structures r.earby when the marshal arrived and the* inferno was blistering the hand* and. faces of the pipemen and laddermen who were sticking to their positions under the <T.couragenunt of commanders who themselves were burned and blistered. The shelter of the awning which later became the destroyer of a score of lives was sought by firemen, led by Horan, burroughs and Fitzgerald.

More thaii that, he didn't care much, for it bad nothing whatever to do with the office be wanted anyway. But the voters were much excitwl over the question and seemed to think that every candidate should be able to discuss the problem from A to Izzard. So this German and his campaign manager invented a successful subterfuge. When the German got up at the meetings to tulk he would say: "Now, shentlemeu. 1 vlll taLk mit you about der tariff. It is t i k e " - Just then his campaign manager would Interrupt: "Why. John, you have only nve minutes to talk. You cannot do yourself justice In that length of time on the turitt." j -'Then I won't talk about dot tariff," would be John's inevitable reply, and he would go on to tell that be wanted a certain county office, and so on.

"During sleep." says an authority on mental subjects, "the workings of the mind are under no control, and yet it seems to have a wonderful faculty of building up and arranging scenes and incidents. I remember once having a vivid dream of going into a house the furniture and inmates of which belonged to the middle ages. So clear was the dream that 1 had no dilhculty in recalling it. and then aa i went over each detail of dress, armor, jewelry, ornaments and other objects Recti in my vision I realized that every thing I had beheld w a s historically accurate—that is to say. that probably In a fraction of a .second my mind had conjured up a scene to construct which, with the same faithfulness to detail, while awake would have taken me several hours."
