The embroideries on evening gowns ard cloaks have been very magnificent all this summer; but I "hear they will be still more so this winter. Further, I believe that we shall see a return to soft transparent fabrics, as well as those of regal magnificence. Accordion plaiting will be a feature In evening gowns; tliis I have prophesied lor many weeks, but probably owing to the fact that it is difficult wear for outdoor gowns, it will be chiefly rela*. gated to the service of evening gowns. A lovely model which carries out The still popular combination of black-andgold is here described. The underskirt and top of the corsage f.re composed of the very softest black marquisette, through which a fine gotd thread is run.

A little coat of this type may have thn neck and sleeve corners carefully turned back to show a lining of vivid chiffon or gayly flowered soft silk. A coat of a bright color-with a scarf girdle or sash to match is often worn with a skirl or one-piece frock of white or neutral tone, and always looks pretty with the lingerie frock. For Holland Material. Hay water is splendid to use when washing brown Holland material or for the tinting of laces, but when employed the solution should be concentrated. Place a good handful of hay seed or a small quantity of hay into a saucepan and cover them with a quart of water. Bring the water to boiling point and simmer the solution until it becomes dark in color. Strain it and it. is ready for use. (By <3EOK«E (". HU6SMANN Pomok*- glut. United States Department ot Agriculture.) There are three distinct viticultural regions in the United States which segregate themselves by the grape species grown In them. The Vinifera region, in which Vlnifera varieties are almost exclusively grown, Is located almost entirely west of the Rocky mountains, so much of it being Ju California that those not conversant with grape varieties erroneously call them California grapes. With few exceptions either the spur, stool or short pruning system is used for the stockier growing varieties, and the long or cane pruning system is usually used for the longer growing varieties, but either system is often modified to suit Individual varieties. Thus the spurs are sometimes left longer In the spur system, and either spurs and canes left longer or spurs cut on the laterals In the cane system. Stakes only are used to give the vines the necessary support; this method allows the vineyard to be cultivated crosswise as well as lengthwise. Vines trained on trellises aTe comparatively rare in California. The more generally known Vinifera varieties grown in this district are the Alexandria, Alicante Eousehet, Aramon, Burger, Cabernet, Sauvegnon, Calmette, Carlgnane, Chasselas de Fontainebleau, Cornlchon, Emperor, Flame Tokay, Green Hungarian. Grenache, Malaga, Mission, Mondeuse, Mourestel, Pizzutella, Petit Syrah. Purple Damascus, Riesling, Semillon, Sauvlgnon Vert, Sultanina, Sylvancr, Valdepenas and Zinfandel. The Muscadine region of the South Atlantic and Gulf states includes the entire southeastern coastal plain extending from* the Potomac to Florida, reaching well up Into the Dlue Ridge mountains and along the Gulf coast to the Rio Grande river, spreading to the north along the Mississippi river into the great central plains to southeast Missouri and the Tennessee river. In this region improved varieties of the Rotundifolia and Munsonia species are grown for various purposes, butter-known varieties vp—tfrew being the Eden. Flowers, James, Mlsh. Scuppemong and Thomas. The multiple cross-wire system or overhead arbor Is almost exclusively used. As previously mentioned, these arbors are very similar to the overhead trellis or parrales system used in Spain with the Almerian varieties commonly seen In our markets packed in cork dust and called "Malaga" grapes. The third or American native-grape region is the one in which Improved I stated in the description ot the various systems. The varieties most e v tenslvuly grown are the following: Agawam, America, Barry. Beacon, Uerckmans, Brighton, Brilliant, Campbell, Carman, Catawba, Champion, Clinton, Concord, Cottage. Cynthtaaa, Daisy, Dawn, Delaware, Diamond, Diana, Duchess, Eaton, Eivicand, Elvira. Empire State, Fern, Gold Coin, Gaertner, Goethe, Headlight. Herbemont. Herbert, Iona, Isabella, Ives, Jaeger, AMfc, A Vine In Its Fourth Year Pruned According to the Block System. Janesville, Jefferson, Lady, Laussel, Lenoir, Llndley, Lutle, Martha, Massasoit, Merrimac, Missouri Riesling, Moore, Muench, Nectar, Niagara, Noah, Norton,_Dlita, JPerklns^ Perry, Pocklington, Prentiss, Rommel, Salem, Triumph, UUter, Vergennes, Victor, Washington, Wilder, Wlnchell, Wetumka, Woodruff, Worden and Wyoming. There are so many spe'cles of grapes, each having peculiarities of its own and therefore responding most readily to certain cultural methods to which It is best adapted, that the pruning, training and growing of vines, which otherwise may appear quite simple, become complicated operations in which comparatively few people become expert, and vineyards in which serious mistakes are not made are rare. In the fan system the vine growth, which is trained to an upright trellis, Is annually renewed to within a short distance from tne ground. The vines are cut back usually to four canes and SB many spur? each year; the canesare spread out and tied to the trellis, giving the vine the shape of a fan. The illustration, A and C, shows an unpruned vine In the third and fourth ykaars. B shows the same vine pruned the fourth year for this system. - The advantages claimed by the advocates of this system are (1) that most qf the old wood is dispensed with each year, (2) that the vines can be easily laid down and covered in winter when needful in the extreme •MIUNQ MARTYRDOM.

I bought a box of Cutlcura Ointment and a cake of Cutlcura Soap and before I had them half used my baby was cured.

This, system has the disadvantage of/bearing the fruit too low and is not now so generally in use as formerly. A /system combining some of the points of several other systems is the horizontal block system. Jn this the vines are manipulated as' with the other systems and pruned for the first four years, after which tbe unpruned vine is pruned as shown in the illustration. As practiced in some localities. Jthls system appears to be a combination of the high-renewal and the horisontal-ann spur systems. ABSORBS SHOCKS FROM HARD ROADS When a team is pulling a heavy load over a rough road or pavement it Is subject to repeated and sudden shocks, which cause much unnecessary fatigue. The illustration shows how to make a doubletree that will absorb all shocks and sudden jerks and prevent sore shoulders. The spring may be one taken from an old buggy. All teamsters that care for their horsct and want them to stand up to heavy work without constantly having sore shoulders Bhould make and use a doubletree like the one .which it shown in the accompanying'illustration.

A- JEFFERY, Professor of S#Hs Michigan Agricultural College. i M'',•>?' After £jyu}y land, such i s i ^ found la western and northern &Ucbij£au, has been brou^hr^feAder cultivation, great care must Bill! be exercised in Us management. The cjoppln* .value of these JSOJU y^U depend more than anything else upon the incorporation and retention, of w organic matter. To this end: a careful rotation of crops should be adopted. It should be sim- Die and short, something like this: (1) Clover, one or two years, plowing under as much of the aftergrowth as is possible when preparing for the succeeding crop;. (2) a cultivated drop—potatoes, corn or possibly beans, and (3) grain of some kind, seeding again to clover with grain. This is not the on'y rotation that could be followed, but the Important thing is to introduce clover into the rotation as frequently as possible. No grain or cultivated crop should be planted twice in succession. The plowing should be shallow, probably never to exceed five inches, and this with a view to keeping the organic matter as near the surface as possible, where it will accomplish the most good, particularly in protecting the spoils from the ravages of the winds. It is good practice not to use the plow too frequently. Many farmers use the plow only in breaking the clover sod. The disc harrow is used at all other times In preparing soil Tor crops. ' ^ h e n cultivated crops occupy the land, the cultivation should be frequent and shallow. Only those who have practiced persistent shallow cultivation can appreciate the importance oi thus stirring the soil in preserving the moisture and insuring profitable crops. Use "catch" crops where possible. If a regular crop has beerr removed fairly early in the .fall and the succeeding crop is not to be planted the following spring, it is always worth while to seed the land to oats or rye or vetch. Frequently it will be found desirable and profitable Just before the last cultivation of the corn to seed the corn field to winter vetch seed at the rate of 30 pounds per Rcre. The field may be seeded to oats or rye instead. The benefits to be derived from the catch crop are at least three: 1 . , In the fall and early spring soil Is protected from the winds. . 2. During .the ;Winter these crops catch and retain the snow upon the ground, from which fact the soil benefits not onlj- from the. blanket of snow during the winter^ but, also, from the melting of the snow in place in the spring. 3. The discing In of the crop In the spring adds to the soil organic matter, and in the case of vetch, nitrogen as well. .-C*Mn._MiBMrjng. Green manuring is the practice of .growing a crop to plow under before It matures. This is done to increase the amount of organic matter in the soil. Different crops are used for this purpose. Rye is perhaps the most commonly used, and probably chiefly because it can be planted in the fail and makes a considerable growth before the grow, log season closes. It takes up the growing again early In spring and continues until the farmer is ready to Stow it -under. It !s sown at the rate of e n e - e n d «ne4*alf bushels to two oushels-per aero, , Of the spring frown crops oats or rye are frequently used, and are sown at the regular rates of seeding. Sometimes Indian corn is sown at the rate of one bushel to one and onehalf bushels per acre for this purpose. It may he sown in drills or broad- « a a ^ ^ ' - V - ' < ' , ' i ?

BALDWIN, Michigan Agricultural College. After {he crop Is removed, from new settlings and stubble lands, the weeds whjeh/5iav6 been kept in check by tlie groV^ing crop are apt to spring up and rpj&e a sufficient growth to produce a cree of seed and crowd the thin seeding* of grass and clover. The number and variety of such weeds will depend upon the locality and the care exercised in the operation of the farm. Ragweed, pigweed, foxtails and Canada thistles are among the most common kinds found. Such weeds can be prevented from seeding to a great extent, by. clipping with the cutter bar of the mower tilted high so as to leave the new seedinga. It is objectionable to attempt to control weeds or new seedings with sheep for the reason that sheep are almost sure to eat the tender seedlings and leave the coarser weeds. The practice of clipping with a mower has been used by the Michigan Agricultural college farm, where a constant warfare must be kept up againut weeds which are continually being introduced in the purchase of hay, straw and grain for feeding. Perhaps the most persistent fall weed and the one that is most conspicuous during August and Septett*-|. steam, ber along roadsides, ditches and grain, fields, is the ragweed (shown In illustration). Its ragged, rank growth and Albion,—Albion college will have, a new and complete ¢40,000 physical science building if the ,'plarur of Dr. C. W. Greene, head of the de1 partment of physics, are carried out. Doctor Greene started the movement for the new structure, which is sadly needed at the Methodist school, last summer, the Intention being to raise the necessary funds from among the members ef the Epworth league, tho Methodist Young People's society, in Michigan. Each local league will be asked to contribute to the fund, which has already bqen started. The present physical laboratories are housed in the McMillan chemical laboratory, erected by Senator James McMillan in 1893. Ragweed. long lived seeds makes it an* especially bad weed. Its tall green tassel which contains such an abundance of yellow poUen Is said to be the cause of hay fever. Careful farming with clean cultivation crops, such SB beanB and corn, is the most effective syBtem of holding this weed in check.

A stallion shut up in a dark stall without the companionship of other horses often becomes moody and savage. Some English stallioners ride a pony while leading their horses for exercise, and the horses become so attached to these ponies that they become fretful and uneasy when they are not near. At night the ponies are given a stall next to the horses. Of course, some horses are too savage in nature to permit their being led in company with a pony, hut If broken to this treatment when young, stallions can be handled in this way. Fall Sown Clover.

Parrlngton of Wisconsin Agricultural 'College, m speaking of Soil Exhaustion, *iade a very interesting statement regarding the selling of dairy products from the farm as compared with selling the grain productions directly off the farm. Here 13 what he says: "There is a great difference In the amount of soil fertility removed from the farm by selling crops as compared with tbe selling of cream and butter. Tbe constituents of the soil that become most easily exhausted by farming operations are the nitrogen, the phosphoric acid end the potash. These each have a market value per pound and can be bought in commercial fertilizers. They are also contained in farm manure. "An analysis of different crops and of milk, butter and cheese will show how much of these various constituents are removed from the farm when a certain quantity of these products are sold. For instance, by using the same prices per pound for the following crops, etc., we- find that the fertilizing constituents taken from the soil when one ton of hay is sold from tbe farm have a value of $4.34, one ton of corn $5.36 one ton of wheat $6.63, one ton of milk $2.17, one ton of skimmilk $2.31. one ton of butter ¢9 cents, one ton of whey 84 cents, and one ton of cheese $14.19. The value of each ton of these different products is well known. For Instance, the ton of hay may be sold for $20.00, while the ton of butter is worth $600.00 and a ton of cheese $200.00. These figures show, however,.that If the crops raised on the farm are fed to the cows and either cream or butter only is sold, then for every $600.00 worth of butter only 50 cents worth of fertility is drawn from the farm." In encouraging the farmers to engage in dairying, Prof. Farrington says: "Dairying keeps up the fertility of the soil as already explained. "Skimmilk is very valuable to the farmer not only for the reasons given, but because it is profitable for a farmer to become a stock raiser—that is, raise calves, pigs, poultry, etc., rather than a crop producer and a seller of grain. "Dairy products, butter and cheeBe, are not bulky to market, being much more concentrated and the cost of transportation less than it Is for hay, grain, etc. "Dairying utilizes waste land, such as stony pastures, timber and swamp land, which may be used for pasturing the cows if these are kept, but which otherwise wouFd give no returns. "Dairying gives profitable employment during the entire year and idleness is not good for either man or beast." A visit to the National Dairy Show at Chicago, October 24th to November 2nd next, will give every one a short course in dairying that cannot be equalled anywhere in the world, and all such matters as here discusssd by Prof. Farrington will be Illustrated by the world's experts in every branch of the dairy industry. Opportunities to view the best representatives on American soil of the leading dairy cattie, and meet the men who are devoting their lives to the advancement of the dairy industry is here afforded. Everything will be shown In a big, broad, educational way that all may be enabled to keep abreast of the most modern methods in appliances and tbe best results in breeding and feeding dairy cattle, and preparing for market and the marketing of all dairy products.

Her husband has a bunch of scads j On poor folk she looks proudly down And speaks -\bout "the lost Fisnads." Of the list of strange callings followed by women that of wine tasting Is one of the most curious and lucrative. As a matter of fact, Mile. Collinere, whose services are in great demand in France, Germany and Italy as a wine taster, is said to make an income of about £5,000 a year, many firms employing her for regular work and frequently for special duty. Only half a dozen wine tasters have been known to history, the most renowned of these being the wife of a famouB London wine merchant, Mme. Pommery, who died in Paris twelve years ago, and Stgnora Souea who has a great reputation in Spain on account of her judgment and knowledge of wine. Wine tasters, It appears, are born, not made, and must possess the gift of a rare and delicate palate. To this, of course, must be added a knowledge of wines. Mile. Collinere's taste Is so fine and her knowledge of wines such that she can discern from the first taste of a wine just where the grapes grew from which it was made, whether they were raised In California or in the vineyards of France, Germany, or elsewhere. She can easily detect adulteration of any sort, or If there is a blend and of which wines, and can tell the age of a wine almost to a day. As a matter of fact, there are no secrets that a bottle of wine can withhold from this remarkable Frenchwoman once she has had a spoonful of it In her mouth. She does not swallow the wlae. In fact, she is a teetotaller, and If she were to drink wine would lose her subtle magio of taste. Furthermore, she Is obliged to take the greatest oare off her health. She must be well in order to do her work, for her sense loses Its ounnlng when she gets oat of health/—Tit-Bits. t L For Complete Enjoyment At Meal Time1 Use bread made from Purity ITlour and you will say that it is J the bread that every- 5 body ought to eat.

Ed renew Women are not breaking into farming in a way to cause a boom In the price of abandoned farm lands, but they ate, according to scattered reports, taking a try at farming, and, according to the same report, they are generally making a success of it Generally the woman who takes to farming goes in for something faddy —an^J makes It pay. One of the Inspiring things in life it d » popularity of youth. Or perhaps It may better be called the aim ot everybody *o keep young. Old age ha*, lost out to the modern idea, sayi Judge. Who nowaday* sees old men or old women? Men who half a century ago would have been characterised as "stricken with years" are gay old boy* today, and women have so mastered the art of perpetual youth that It takes a wise one to pick out the grandmothers.

According to state officials interested in Jackson prison affairs, Warden Simpson and the board of control of the prison have decided to "Are" every guard in the prison on duty at the time of the recent outbreak. That veteran guards are being discharged every day is no longer a secret. Quard Hatch, who has been at the prison longer than most of the present attaches, was given his release. Deputy Warden Walle, who was in charge of the guards at the time the rlotg started, also "resigned." Warden Simpson said it was the re* suit of a mutual understanding, but other discharged guards deny this, it is said, and point to the promotion of Walle from the ranks as evidence that he would not desire to quit Klmmerle's Daughter Elopes. Miss Ruth Anne Kimemrle, 22, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles H. Kimmerle, of Cassopolis, the latter a widely known political leader in Michigan, eloped and was married at Kalamazoo to Arthur Sears, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Sears, wealthy Cassopolis ildenti. The couple left Caj^opoTfs and went to Kalamazoo, rousing County Clerk Curtenius at midnight and prevailing upon him, 46 issue a license, after which they arrived at the parsonage of Rev. Arba Martin as the gray dawn was breaking, and who performed the ceremony, — The couple then left here for New York on a honeymoon trip. Martin Walsh, 82, a pioneer resident of Mrashall, died.

In presenting his name to the convention, John D. MacKay, of Detroit, stated that Mr. Martindale is a man who has always placed the interests of his country, state and party above his own and who recently proved himself a graceful loser in the contest for the gubernatorial nomination at the primary election. The name of State Senator Coleman C. Vaughan, of Clinton county, was forcefully presented by Attorney William Smith, of St Johns. The only ballot resulted: Martindale, 1,043; Vaughan, 422. There was no fight on the/ nomination for attorney general, it having become evident before the delegates convened that Grant Fellows, of. Hud* son, would nave a walk-away. When nomination were called for, Watts S. Humphrey, of Saginaw, rose and moved that the rules be suspended and the secretary be instructed to cast the entire vote of the convention for Mr. Fellows* After adopting the state platform, as recommended by the committee on resolutions, the convention unanimously ratified the action of the Bay City convention by re-electing Alex J. Groesbeck, of Detroit, to the chairmanship of the state central committee.- ."

That the duties of women"have been clearly indicated, that they show no disposition to overstep the boundaries assigned to tme, Is simply a manifestation of the spirit that pervades all classes. It is hardly a queBn- «f—h4g4er—or-lower-,- superior- or_ Inferior; it la a matter of duty— of -"bufhldo." Certainly the Japanese woman is -not regarded as a handmaid. She has never been without her honorable position in the body politic, nor has the value of her peculiar duties ever been slighted. The duties of bushido are considered to he binding upon the woman, as upon the man, and inasmuch as bushldo means loyalty, so the woman must be loyal to her husband, as the man must be to the emperor and to the country. It is only those who are led by a false In- —dependence -to-fevolt-agalnst all i of service who will criticise a ready acceptance by the ^vomen of4Japan of- a domestic sphere which is as important in its way as the larger service to the empire. Bnt the Samurai woman was not 081. Thirty yeara-Hrtw the debt had risen to $1,120,000,000. This immense Increase was due mainly to the Chinese and Russian war, and a continuing expenditure on a large scale is necessitated by the national defense. In the year 1908 the army nnd navy cost $144,189,183. Between April 1, 1895, and March 1, 1909, the array cost $376,085,088 and the navy $313,443,440. The national defense has cost a total of $689,423,523 within fourteen years and this without counting the cost of the Russian war. Corea, Formosa and Manchuria have demanded heavy expenditures.

Japanese history has many examples of women who became governors, who led military expeditions and who were famous In literature, art, education and religion, Indeed, the path to public, honor bad always been open to the Japanese woman, but Jt could be attained only by public service. There was only en* standard of human value, and that was adhesion,to. the national interest. The "woman who performed her whole 4uty to the home was at worthy- of veneration as the man who performed Ms whole duty to the army and to the country. . , There'have been distinct feminine periods in the. history of Japan.

Women are also interested in many productive industries and in art activities. There are also now women -doctors, and the department of communications employs women officials. Physical culture for women Is also being adopted with energy and this Is a fitting sequel to the Samurai injunction that required women to regulate their emotions and suppress all those weaknesses that their western sisters usually attribute to nerves. The Woman's university of Japan may be taken as an expression of Japanese ideas upon tste question of education for women. It was founded by Mr. Haruse, who began his work thirty-six years ago, and who has been unresting in its advancement. The object of the university Is to educate women to fulfill their duties toward the state and society and to become an influence in the life of the nation. The university contains •"5»- llc works undertaken, Including rail ways, telegraphs and telephones, and all these things have been done by a country that contains only 26,000 square miles of arable BOIL Under such conditions it is easy to believe that taxation is the question of the day in Japan and has been so for many years. Since the outbreak of the Russian war the land tax has ranged from 3 per cent, to 17.5 per cent. The tax on liquors ranges from $5 per 40 gallons up to 17.40½ per 40 gallons, according to the percentage of alcohol. Then comes the income tax, which Is arranged upon a sort of graduated scale. Before the war the tax paid by "Juridical" persons was 2¼ per cent., but after the war an additional tax was levied equal to 80 per cent, up to 400 per cent, of the ordinary rate. An income tax of 2 per cent. WAS also levied on public loan funds and company debentures. All other persons not already assessed as above pay a rate in proportion to their income. Before the war those with an Income of 300 yen ($150) per annum paid 1 per cent, and this increased according to the income up to %% per cqnt. Now the lowest income pays 10 per cent, and the highest 20.35 per cent. There are various exceptions, such as army and navy oflkers while engaged in war,, widows, orphans, pen'- House rent 0,75 Hire 3.25 Fuel nrul U«ht 0.41 Vegetables 0.60 KIsM O.CO Tobacco 0.2.1 Bath 0.20 Pin money 0.60 Hftir cilttirtK. etc 0.18 Sundries 2.37 yea/s later came the Russian war. Once more the government talked to the people in the unpleasant language of government loanB. The people of Japan, however, apparently enjoyed this bitter talk. Indeed they became enthusiastic about it. Five times the government talked to the people and five times the people replied by glvlug up altogether $300,000,000. In addition to this amount we raised about $600,- 000,000 from foreign loans. As in the time of the Chinese war, the willingness of the people, their enthusiasm, their appreciation of the honor of emptying their pocketbooks for the state was the same. Ours ia the Spartan ideal—no consideration for the Individual, everything for the state. What was not exactly the same was that our people had a very much harder time in putting up the $40,000,000 at the time of the Chinese war than in surrendering $300,000,000 at the time of the Russian war." The Japanese government Is now carrying out a scheme for paying off the principal of the national debt. Prime Minister Katoura decided that the country must raise at least $25,- if this can be maintained Japan will have paid her war debts in less than thirty years. But she will net find the task an easy one. She will have to call again upon a patriotism that has never failed her, but that cannot perform the impossible. It may be doubted if the taxes can be pushed any higher than they are now and even the most willina taxpayers cannot pay when they do not possess. The annual taxation now amounts to almost 1G yen ($8) and this Is a very large sum indeed when we remember that the average earnings are very Bmall. In 1904 an estimate was made of the monthly expenses of the average Japanese family of four, and It is probably fairly correct at the present time. It is as follows: . i.< 1M - ! > DS •URELY 80WI} HtRE TO PLEASE Af/Y PALATE.

His statement fs so remarkable that it is worthy of quotation. He says: "In 1893 we went to war with China. Our government wanted money, ana wanted it badly. It let our people know about its needs in terms of war loans. To the first call the people answered by putting up $25,000,000. The government wanted mora, and on the second call H succeeded m getting from the people «*,o©»,oeo-m s.U $»,000,000. The people f a r e this amount very wDllngly.

None placed the figure higher than 200 yen annual income. Out of this amount the average Japanese pays 40 per cent, in taxes. That is a very high proportion, bat th* fiscal authorities seem to have no doubt that it can be maintained, and probably even raised. ; Millard says In his "Far Eastert Question" that aereral persons whom he has questioned estimate the average earnings of the average Jap- It seems Impossible to economise except by a reduction of the expenditure for armaments, and there seems to be little chance for that. Anna* meats on their present scale are considered to bo absolutely necessary to the preservation of the national life, and as a Japanese writer recently remarked: "Of what use i s It to economise the nation's finances at the cost of national destruction?" in 1907 there were 2,238 banks in Japan, with a total cspitalitatlon 6\ 539.628,220 yen and which showed a balance in deposits of 1.820,693,270 yen. Their earnings in 1906 were 208.- 445,509 yen and they paid dividends at the rate of 9.6 per cent. •uesrfluoua Qutstlo*. "My dear sir. my wife is a woman.' Tapioca and Milk Soup.

Lowell was born September, 3, 1829 in the town of Victor, Ontario county, New York, and died at her home here Monday, October 7, 1912 aged 83 years. She came to Michigan with her parents when 8 years of age. On Marsh. 1858 she was married to George Hicks who survives her. Six children were born to this union; Mrs. Mary E, Swarthout of Pinckney, Henry and Charles of Jackson, Millen R. who died at the age of 3 years, Bert of Putnam and Mrs. Emma Burgess of this place. She was a faithful wile, and a kind and loving mother, a true friend and cheerful companion. She has now answered the last Roll Call and all that is mortal will soon return to silent dust; let us cherish her memory, emulate her example and leave her with the God she loved. The parting is sad, but the meeting will be joyful in that better Land she has now entered. The funeral services were held from the Cong'l churcb Wednesday at 1:30 p.m. Rev. W. H. Ripon officiating.

Chas. L. Grimes nod Family. The Lecture Course Committee this year have prepared a Course which will meet the approval of the most fastidious. Each number has been selected with great care and a desire to cater to the taste of the people of Pinckney and vieinity. Last year the committee ran behind something like one hundred dollars, so this year they are charging $1.25 for the tickets which heretofore have been only $1.00. The small additional price of 25c insures a better course than has ever before been produced in the village. The Course which the people ot Pinckney will attend this winter ranks with that in other villages whose citizens are cheerfully paying from 11,50 to $2.00 per season ticket. A $1.25 invested IQ a season's ticket will double five fold in value for the citizen who sees fit to attend the whole course. He will not only be entertained by music and humor but will be advanced along educational lines by some of the best leoturers on the American platforms to-day. The tickets are now on sale at Brown's Drug Store. Remember the small sum of $1.25 buys a season ticket to the best Course the Committee has put on. That means only 25 cents for an evening devoted to a high class entertainment there being five numbers on the entire Course People elsewhere are paying 50 cents single admission to listen to such an entertainment, but the committee is offering the whole for $1.25. Any one desiring reserved seats can obtain them at Brown's Drug Store for 25 cents extra each. * The following numbers are submitted, after careful selection to the citizans of_Pinckney:- Nov. 6—The Potters Nov. 29—Chioago Ladies Orchestra. Dec. 11—Sylvester Long. Jan. 8—Robert Parker Miles. Apr. 14—Euclid Male Quartette. A complete synopsis of each number will follow latter. Lecture Course Committee. 'THE CENTRAL' Do you s e e any difference between new goods and old? Does new goods appeal to you? If so, we have them and at prices to suit all purses. Not only new goods, but the newest shades, the kind they buy and wear in cities. We are not runniog on other people or their goods;we don't have to,because we have plenty of business of our own to attend to; it is these foolish people who have nothing to do who make nuisances of themselves running on other people and thinking that by making sport of others they will in some way boost themselves, but we have plenty to do without that kind cf exercise, and if we did not have, we wonld put our head under some fence before we would show our ignorance in that comtemptible way. We are trying to build up a firetclass trade with firstclass goods; trying to give you value received and kindly ask you to come and look over the stook. It is impossible td enumerate the good things we have this week, but suffice it to say that we have dress goods in _ nfiarly_B.il shades _a_id_prices; calico, percale, gingham, serge, •ovelty, cordurory, etc., from 10 cts. up to $1.25 per yard; also splendid line of gloves and mittens, underwear, hose, the new corset covers with sleeves, cotton bats, etc. Men's furnishings, shirts, overalls, gloves, ties, hose, caps and a few pairs of shoes left, mostly boy's sizes.

To Renovate Htstorlo Castle. Loch Dochart Castle, which was built in the thirteenth century on an Island in the loch of the same name and is associated with the famous Rob Roy, has now been taken in hand by the Scottish Historical Antiquarian association, and Is being renovated so as tojtosure Its permanency. Vegetable Fiber for Shoes. A. Haverhill (Mass.) ehpeman has ^obtained patents giving him the right to make vamps and tops of vegetable fiber which he has invented and r e - fected to be used in the manufacture of shoes. A few cases of shoes havd been made of this material, which appears to be a good substitute for leather. The fiber is said to be particularly • adaptable for warm weather wear because, being of a woven material, air tan penetrate the vamp and top. The inventor also claims that a shoe made of this material Is waterproof. He Knew. "' 'Where there's a will there's a Eay,"" avers Taylor Holmes, appearig In The Million.

The Food Tells Its • - ' ' ' < Own $tory Its one <ttsh t$*t » good many tbouatnri people reHsh greatly for breakfast, hmeh or sup* per; . ^ Prominent Idea Is the Large Collars, Meant to Be Rolled Up About the Ears In Extreme Cold Weather. • ____ The new wraps, designed for the coming winter, are long, loose, roomy affairs, whether they are to be used tor general utility or for dressy wear. With all their apparent simplicity, they are carefully cut, and, in fact, anything but simple. Heavy clothes, for ordinary wear, are used in the coats designed for comfort. Collars are large and arranged to roll up about the neck when needed. The two-faced fabrics will be popular again, providing reversible garments in some Instances. A gray coat, having a reverse side in amethyst color may be worn either side out. Dark blue or black with reverse side in heather color Is another chic combination. For street wear the sober colors are chosen; for the auto ride, and for many other occasions the brighter colors provide a better choice. These heavy coats are as warm, almost, as fur, and have certain advantages over these luxurious garments. Evening wraps and those designed with an eye to grace and beauty, are much draped. The kimono coat holdB its own along with the new wraps of satin and velvet. The combination of rich embi Jderles with dark solid color fabrics must be conceded to be most beautiful. Wraps of black satin lined with the same or contrasting colors, are draped much in the manner of the new skirts, and when fas* tened, display their lines to the best advantage, enfolding the figure gracefully. Many brocaded linings are to be used. Royal blue with glints of bright gold, shades of copper and brown, rich purples and exquisite gray and'white are alluring splendors in these fabrics. *^>S**S+±f^*^i^^*>* When considering garments of velvet, satin, etc.. lined with brocades, it must be borne In mind that they are for grown-ups, for matrons, and not for the young maid. There is nothing about them to suggest girlhood. Simpler clothes, or at least those that seem simpler, belong properly to the merry maid, before she takes on the dignity of the matron. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. LITTLE NEW IN LINE OF FUR Chinchilla Squirrel the Only Novelty Worth Mention, and It Promisee to Be Popular. It may seem a trifle premature to talk about furs; but, although the weather is Btill quite summery, the large shops "already have begun to display fur garments of every description, suitable for the chilly days of late fall and even for the regular winter season. So far as can be judged at this time, there will be little new in the fur line during the eomlng season. Of novelty furs there is so tar but a single achievement which deserves mention, the chinchilla squirrel. This Is a gray squirrel eo treated and tipped that It has the softness and much of the silvery coloring of chinchilla. It seems safe to predict that it will become quite popular. The French designers of small furs have sent over charming sets in this fur, combined with gray silk or velvet or used alone, and it is also being used on coats and frocks, though It Is not cheap enough to be used lavishly by the crowd or to be readily commonlzed. Echoes of FasHfon. Many of the newest coat models in black taffeta and Batln are cut away sharply from the bust into a long pointed tall at the back. Nearly all thin or transparent fabrics are made with a slightly bouffant over-skirt suggestive of the pannier, but for those figures which cannot stand this arrangement around the hips there is the tunic, which though falling almost plain from the waist, is cut with a rounded edge just above the knees, slightly gathered into a lace insertion or trimming, and edged with silk fringe a few inches in depth. This gives the pannier effect, yet keeps the* fullness away from the hips. BABIES TO DRESS IN STYLE] Pannier Skirts and Hats With Ostrich Feathers Are the Fash* Ion for Infants. Baby's clothes are just as elaborate, Just as much decorated and as care* tally finished with regard to style as are mother's this year, and are also very expensive. ! There are little velvet coats, with hat* or bonnets to match. There also are combinations of mufflers, scarfs and bats to match. There are diminutive chinchilla ©oats Just like the larger ones for mother. And there are wee dresses which have a decided pannier effect The showing in baby hats Is almost a* taapnda some stores as Chi regu- Jb« anflaW department ^ Utxfs hatt are decorated with tenia***,? lace and other accessories which heretofore have boon left to older St***. Bag for Shoes. A woman who is hard On her silk stockings has learned to utilize the tops for bags for her shoes and slippers. When the runs and holes get undarnable the tops of the stockings are cut off midway of the leg and the lower edge sewed across in a French seam. A shoe Is kept in each of the Be stocking bags, which take up no room, cost nothing and act as an absorber of dust. Sometimes the kind of shoes is outlined on the hem to make them more easily distinguishable. The New Sleeves. The new influence of the trimmed sleeves is making Itself felt just now. It will be seen where the lawn frill runs almost to the elbow, ^Sometime* it is seen frilled right up to the shoulder. This fancy may lead later to a revival of the puffed and banded sleeves of the Elizabethan era. HANDSOME ORNAMENT.

MILK FED TO THE CHICKENS Liquid Contains AH That Beef Scrape and Green Cut Bonea Do, But in Diluted Form. ~ The moat successful poultrymen feed some kind of animal food to their chickens of all ages and conditions.

If any is left after feeding It should be removed and the feed dish thoroughly cleaned and scalded. The birds should be kept aa unlet aa possible and given plenty of shade and clean water. When they are three months old they will begin to grow very rapidly under this method of feeding and are soon ready for the market Their flesh la firm, but not hard and dry aa those of the birds that are fed too much dry grain. Many poultrymen use small coops containing four to six birds each/ but cockerels can be confined Just as well if confined in lota of aay 50, with a floor space of about 50 square feet. They should have a lot large enough to give them some exercise, but not too much. The time to fatten cockerels Is when they are young, because it costs leas than when they are six or seven months old. Fattened at three or four months their flesh is of much superior quality than when allowed to attain their growth.

Chicken Catching Box. by 5 feet will hold a good many. One end of box is left open. Place this at entrance of coop. The other end and one side is of wire netting. This admits light and induces the fowls to enter, writes Fred L. Bailey in the Missouri Valley Farmer. Three doors made-to slide back and forth and large enough to admit a large fowl are placed on the fourth aide. Knobs or blocks are nailed on the center of doors, and two large blocks put beneath the box raise it level with the entrance. A partition is made to drop where the dotted lines are shown, which will keep the chickens at one end when all but a few are caught. When you want to apply lice powder to a number of fowls or cull out the flock, go into the coop and drive the fowls in till the box Is full, then close the entrance door. -The chickens can then be caught by the lege and drawn out at slide doors one by one.

In order to reclaim Uardsvood stump land and prepare it for the production of farm crops, action must be taken quickly after the timber has been removed to prevent a second growth from starting up and greatly increasing; the cost of clearing year after year. This is particularly true where maple seedlings are abundant The only practical way to clear such lands consists .in producing conditions which will hurry the rotting...of the stumps Tn t h e ground and the debris on the surface. In order to do this a fairly good Job should be made of the piling and burning, and there are always. opportune times to do this work if it can he so arranged. To pile the brush and partly decomposed logs and pull all small snags entails a large expense. On the other hand if too much debris remains it diminishes the returns from pasturage. As soon as the burning has been done a mixture of grasses and legumes should be sown, consisting of timothy, red clover, alslke, alfalfa Onion Culture FfNlST QUALITY LASQEST VARIETY Wjtr metavery lcqrtranaiit^or etaaaUv sad s W I f c ' t W -r-'-W 1¾¾ :V -'•V..':.- ort/o EDOB, tw *•» i«n«* \ coSwuSloa^rciM^ ISNS ftoTaJafaSffisiait «SHf«lW>av __•'•;; ,~ - • _ v __- V " J ;'• ^SSJa^liarp SWSSR^BBJBt 'WIM^SSa .SE'S^Savp — ""••!,' " V ^ ; — - T •:• ; "^ ' i j , , ' ;• Make the Liver Do its mty~ ^ j j t o e timet fa tan when the aver • _ sight the> stomach and bowete ara>ifgBt; OTTER'S ~ UVER The essential requirements of a soil upon which to grow onions profitably are a high state of fertility, good mechanical conditions in order that the crop may be easily worked, sufficient drainage, and freedom from: weeds. If the soil has the proper mechanical properties, that is, if It contains sufficient sand and humus to be easily worked, is retentive of moisture and fertilizers, and Is capable of drainage— all other requirements can be met. The three types of soli being most extensively planted to onions in this country are alluvial loams, sandy loanu and- muck and peat soils. Clay soils, which bake and run together after rains, are injurious to the seedlings and do not permit proper early cultivation, Well drained sandy loams are especially adapted to onions, but require heavy applications of fertilizers, lime, and the growth of leguminous cropa to keep them in good condition. , Muck soils are' among the best for onions when fertilized with manure and potash, and made free from weeds. The onion belongs to that class of crops which gives best results under very intensive culture and the great* est yields are secured when a moderate acreage is planted and the work •conducted la a most thorough manner. A s a general rule onions should follow s o m e crop that h a s been kept under t h e hoe and free-from weeds the -previous season. Corn, beans s a d potatoes are suitable crops with which to precede onions. Onions should not be planted on the same piece of land year after year, and s o m e system of crop rotation .should be maintained.

The following aeason after the grass and clover has become established the area should be pastured by sheep, which will not only keep the grass down, but will destroy all sprouts, weeds, etc., much more effectively than cattle or horses. Under these conditions, with all attempts at growth completely checked, the hardwood atumpa will rot out in a few years, leaving the land in condition easily prepared for cultivation. A good seeding i s essential to success and a good percentage of timothy ia particularly desirable. over the land shortly before sowing the seed: Sulfate STammoula, JS'p^r 3#H?.W0pourtda Dried blood 800 poundt Cotton need meal. 800 pounds Acid phosphate 800 pounds Muriate of potash, 60 per cent..400 pounds 2000 pounds The seed should be sown as early In the spring as the soil can be brought Into the best possible condition. The hand drills which sow one row at a time are extensively used but larger growers use a gang of drills which seed five or seven rows at once. Where hand cultivation Is to be practiced the usual distance between rows is 12 to 14 Inches. For growing the standard market onion In rows 14 inches apart, about four and one-half pounds of seed will be required per acre. Thinning should be done at the first weeding to a uniform stand of eight to ten plants to the foot. It la always well, however, to allow for considerable loss of plants, ftnd unless the plants are so thick as to actually crowd, the thinning will not be necessary. The cultural requirements of the onion are frequent shallow stirrings of the soil and freedom from weeds. As soon as the plants are up and t h i rows can be followed, the cultivator should be started to loosen the soil, which i s always more or less compacted during seeding. There are many wheel hoes and hand weederi on the market, which greatly assist in the tedious weed4ng and thinning of onions.—Farmers' Bulletin 364, United States Department of Agriculture.

Baked loaves of bread'd|p nracticaUy unknown la portions ve>f southern Austria and Italy, and throughout the agricultural districts of Jtomnanis, says the London Standard. Austrian* aver that In the villag © of Obersteirmark, not very far from Vienna, bread Is never seen. The staple food Is slerz, a kind of porridge made from ground beech nuts, taken at breakfast with fresh or curdled milk, at dinner with broth or fried lard, and at supper with milk. The dish is also called heiden, and IB substituted for bread, not only In the Austrian district mentioned, but in Carlnthia and other parts of the Tyrol. Northern Italy offers a substitute for bread In the form of.Polenta, which Is a kind of porridge made of boiled grain. Polenta Is not, however, allowed to granulate like Scotch porridge or the Austrian sterz. It la instead boiled into a solid pudding, which is cut up and portioned out with a string. It is eaten cold as often as it Is hot, and Is in every sense an Italian's dally bread. There Is a variation of polenta called mamallga, the favorite food of the poorest classes ir» Roumanla. Mamallga resembles polenta inasmuch as it is made" of boiled grain, but i t is unlike the former In one respect—the grains are not permitted to settle into a solid mass, but are kept distinct After the fashion of oatmeal porridge. Some people do not like cats. That is up to them—probably they have a reason. Other people don't like dogs, and such also may be looked upon with charity. The other day, we are told, a dog with a broken chain came back to Its Pittsburg home carrying In his mouth the trousers and cap of his 12-year-old master. The dumb brute thus attempted to notify the parents that the boy had been drowned. So the father of the family followed the dog back to the Allegheny river, where he found the rest of his son's clothing—and the rest of that dog's broken chain! The dog had not freed himself from that chain in time to rescue the boy, Bays the Cleveland Plain Dealer. But the strong link, snapped in twain, showed that the brute bad tried, superhumanfy, \o do BO. That dog bad not been In time to drag his little master out of the water—but the half of that little master's clothing in the dog's teeth showed how sincere the straggle had been. Some people do not like cats. Others do not liko dogs. But there are are animals— for Instance, dogs—that are likeable. They may not succeed in being human— but they try! HELD 1 LANSING GATHERING OF PARTY TO NOMINATE STATE TICKET WAS SUCCESSFULLY HELD. BAKER ACCEPTS NOMINATION A8 AUDITOR GENERAL. O'Neil Was Re-Elected State Chairman; Julius B. Kirby, as Temporary Chairman Delivered the Key-note Speech. The Ticket. Wat- An old man arrested in Cincinnati on the charge of vagrancy told the Judge when his case came to trial that he had a business which enabled him to make a living. "What is it?" asked the judge, and the old fellow answered, "Bleaching sparrows." Then he explained. He cald he was in the habit of catching sparrows and painting them with peroxide of hydrogen, which changed the color of their feathers, so that he was able to sell them for canary birds. Perhaps he Is not the only man in the world who is capable of this villainy, It may be wise for everyone purchasing canaries Ut adopt the precaution of hearing them sing before paying for them. Kidney beans we have all heard of; "kidney test" seem to be peculiar to Pittsburg, says the New York Sun. A physician there says Pittsburg is store blessed, or cursed, with them than any other town. Pittsburg men are flat-footed.

GOVERNOR—L. Whitney kins of Jackson. LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR—William D. Gordon of Midland. STATE SECRETARY — Howard H. Battdorf of Battle Creek. STATE TREASURER—Frank C. Holmes of Alpena. AUDITOR GENERAL — Herbert F. Baker of Cheboygan. ATTORNEY GENERAL — Julius B. Kirby of Saginaw. COMMISSIONER—Oscar B. Linden of Escanaba. SUPREME JUSTICE—Long term, Edwin S. Lyons of St. Johns; short term, Willard G. Turner of Muskegon. The much-discussed attempt of Govsrnor Osborn's friends to secure recognition of his admlnistiatlon or indorsement of Supreme Justices Kuhn and gteere was apparently completely forgotten in the Bull Moose convention In Lansing on Tuesday. Representatives of Osborn had a conference during the early morning hours with Julius B. Kirby, who as temporary chairman, was to deliver the "key-note speech," and it is alleged they induced him to warm up a bit on behalf of Osborn. Every reference to Osborn was bluepenciled except the mention of his name in connection with the presidential preference primary matter and the workmen's compensation act, uid the speech was then amended so as to Include L. Whitney Watklns as one of the chief figures in promoting these laws. The one lone mention of Governor OBborn's name was passed without a single plaudit. Individual delegates made bitter reference to the "state house crowd" and its "nerve" in "butting in" on a Progressive convention, but the convention Ignored everything pertaining to Osborn and his administration. O'Neil Is Re-elected. The scrap over the appointment of Charles P. O'Neil as chairman of (he state central committee was also passed l*>and O'Neil was unanimously re-electeu. The naming of the state ticket was hardly more than an incident in the convention. Only one contest went to a finish—that of Frank C. Holmes of Alpena and F. A. Rothlisberger of Hillsdale, for state treasurer. Other contests developed, hut in each case EDUARDO SCHAERER WW ; H A 8 \ D a U B L * k c R O S 3 E D McHlAM* M A L T U N t O * AttO * B « F E * 0 - ANTS," PROSECUTOR SAYS PERSONALLY DELIVERED EVI PENCE AGAIAJST FRIENDS* Eduardo Schaerer, the new president of the-republic of Paraguay, is one of the strong men of that country and Is counted on to give 9 vigorous administration.

Operators la the Rockford exchange of the Citizens' Telephone Co., were startled, when three hundred lights on their multiples flashed in a bunch. The reason was soon made clear. Three hundred subscribers, angry over an increase in phone rates had quietly gotten together and decided to disconnect their Instruments simultaneously by pulling '.he receivers from the hooks.

The alignment of Herbert F. Baker, of Cheybogan, with the Bull Moose standard bearers was the source of much delight. Baker certainly did not seek the nomination. Telegram after telegram was shot at him until finally, late In the afternoon, less than ten minutes before the convention balloted on the auditor generalship, a wire came from Cheybogan bearing the brief legend: "Do as you think best. The Progressive leaders declare that in Baker's decision to go on their ticket they have won a tremendous advantage, as Baker's influence with the members of the house, over whom he presided as speaker, is tremendous. Klrby's speech, as temporary chairman, was productive of unbounded enthusiasm. The convention also sanctioned the filling of four places on the presidential elector ticket. Vacancies were filled by district choice aa follows: First district 0. E. Pope, Detroit; sixth, Rudyard H. Churchill, Flint; ninth, Edward P. Dana, Muskegon; delegate-at-large, Frederick C.

Pour United 9tates marines were, killed,. seven pthers, including one officer, were wounded in an engagement with rebel forces In Nicaragua, The battle took place when the force of 900 marines and blue jackets under command of Rear Admiral Southerland stormed the rebel fortifications known as the Barranca, near Masaya, in pursuance of the admiral's instructions from Washington to keep open communication In Nicaragua. Gen. Zeledon, commander of the rebel force, who lost his life as a result of the engagement, had been previously notified by the American naval officer that he must withdraw from his position menacing the line of railroad communications or take the conlequenoes. He was given until 8 o'clock yesterday morning to evacuate the Barranca, and upon his failure to do so the American advance began. The fight lasted but 37 minutes and ended with the Americans in possession of the Baranca. The rebels suffered heavy losses, roughly estimated at 100. killed and more than 200 wounded. 8,400 American Greeks Sail for War.

The statement sounds more like a line" for dor© Krexner melodrama, or a riotous contrast irom Jules Verne, than a setjtlng forth of sober fact; though it is none the less a fact of due and attested sobri «ty, and even, In all kindness, of some solemnity. The rose was "created," as the phrase goes, in George (Bancroft's famous rose gar- •den, by the hoatorian's erratic old English gardener, John Brady; it was a legacy to Brady at Mr. Bancroft's death, in token of long and honorable service, and of the fact that Brady had brought It to perfection only after years of inexhaustible patience and care; and it wai sold for a pittance, but that is getting ahead of the story. Once upon a time, In 188», to be precise, after George- Bancroft had returned from long diplomatic service in Germany, and had settled down to a tsanquillzing old age In his home in Washington, there grew up among the flower enthslasts of England, America and the continent a zealous quest for a red rose which could be made to bloom In winter. M Mr. Bancroft's ascendency as a rose ooiturist in this country had been beyond dispute for half a century, t At the time of the inauguration of Abraham Lincoln, Mrs. Lincoln despaired of pleasing herself in the arrangements of the White House^ger- > den, so she called on Mr. Bancroft for help. This she received in such good and flowing measure that, in acknowledgment ~bf her debt, she sent to the htttoriari a splendid bouquet of japonicas. In reply he wrote her that "for magnificence, the bduqtfet was a fair counterpart of Mr. . Lincoln's brains." -What of official recognition then was stUI lacking for Mr. Bancroft's genius a* a rose grower was supplied by Herr Bismarck, who so admired the American minister to Berlin that he supplied him with roses and rose cuttings from the great Bismarck estates 16 Ponwranla. <v But ail tSils while, despite the genial international co-operation of '• growers,' diplomats and statesmen, tiie red rote refused to grow in winter. Its wintertime behavor wis, in tact, exasperating beyond all words.

JIOJH W i t s • •«*•- G#QZG& jaArKfrorr' on the eve of being able to announce the success of his red rose ventures. Once a friend from France brought Mr. Bancroft a cutting of a red rose oalled "Madame Ferdinand Jemain," which, although it had failed at home, was thought to have possibilities in an American climate. Brady nursed It along with a fair degree of conscientiousness, none too pleased, likely enough, that France ha<Hseen so premature in this honorable business. But the little alien rose bush sickened and died, and was thrown aside, presumably at the end Of its history. Then came the shocking news from England that William Francis Bennett had won the red roBe race. He had had an astonishing luck with his plants, and had finally established their hardihood and their permanence of color. Bancroft and Brady mourned in secret. True, there was still the American championship to be tried for, but the first fine careless rapture of success had been already captured. A rose' culturist in New York had the good fortune, about this time, to make a new flower, which he promptly named the "George Bancroft," but this was not compensation enough, either for the historian or his gardener. So back they went to the seedling beds, with renewed determination. < In the face of such a touching faith and such abounding energy, the fates were bound to be kind. And so, one morning, a delighted yell from his gardener brought Mr. Bancroft. scurrying Into his garden, to find that in a bed of white and yellow seedlings there stood * Strang* red rose, looking toV%tt 'the world as if it had come to stay.

Bancroft for a "private view" of the coveted red rose. "Oh, that must be Bennett's new rose, the English beauty," said the first woman to spy it. "Not at all, madame," said Bradly, proudly, "that is the American red rose." "Then it is the American Beauty," said the lady, not to be outdone. And then and there the name originated, and not all of Brady's stormiest persuasions could ever dislodge it. For the rose's maker had already decided that it should be named for Judge Hagner, a. warm friend of Mr. Bancroft, and Brady's bright particular "star, and.to have the choice of its name and the christening ceremony swept out of his reach at one fell swoop would have tried the patience of a saint.^_ Brady finally made the best of it* and contented himself with assuring Judge Hagner that things would have been different if he had had any say in them. From this time on, however, the history Of John Brady and his precious rose begins to take a somber turn. Mr. Bancroft died in 1891, bequeathing the American Beauty to Brady as a testament of his affection and appreciation. The famous gardens passed into other hands, and Brady niovdd, With his large and hungry family arid his handful of American Beauty rosebushes, Into a little house outside of Washington. Things went rapidly from bad. to worse. Brady had neither, money nor the knack of picking up odd Jobs. His eldest son was still too yonng for responsibility, and the ages of the others, In regular succession, diminished punctually by a year. His wife wis frail, out of patience with poverty, and worn to exhaustion with the care of children. Brady survived the first part of this bleak period by obscnring the Span* is proverb. "Patience, aul shuffle the cards." No stress of want conld make him part with hie rose bushes, vlough his wife, regarding him as a sort c* mo&omaalac on this subject, pot her noblest persuasions into the task of undoing hla resolve TO his reiterated tales of the for* tune that' wootd come to him some day through the American Beauty rose Mr*.

But they seemed beneath contempt to the gardener who dreamed of empire. Not BO, however, to Mrs. Brady. She wept, cajoled, t h r e a t e n e d . She conjured her husband, in the name of common humanity, not to let his children starve before his very eyes. He made her no reply, other than by the crushing method of leaving the house, to take counsel of his dreams outside. It was on one of these forlorn occasions that MrB. Brady's patience snapped and her loyalty faltered^ She Belzed the pampered rose bushes, made haste to Field Brothers, and sold them, one and all, lor scarcely more than the price of a single meal When this was told to Brady, he touched the hour of his supreme tribulation. His world fell away from beneath his feet. Not once in the 18 years since then has the stupor which came upon him lifted for long enough for realization of his misery to sift through. Matters went merrily with the rose he made. Field brothers, by skillful advertising, were able to sell their exclusive right to Its reproduction for $5,000. Within a year ten times that amount was being paid for it by enthusiastic purchasers here and abroad. For ten years past a moderate estimate of the amount of money spent annually all over the world for American Beauty roses Is $25,000,000. John Brady is still homeless in Washington. His wife and the famished children '• have died, one after another. He himself is the recipient of constant small oharitlea from Washington florists, any of whom will give him bits of work, spraying, or cutting, when his mind can be held to his task. At the funeral of V/llllam R. Smith, the famous old Scotch superintendent of the National Botanical gardens, who had, at eighty, the refutation of knowing more public men-—diplomats, Statesmen, and politicians—than any other person then living in the United States, there was an assemblage of men aggregating almost incalculable personal distinction. Into the midst of them crept a shabby, bent old man, who, with averted eyes and bowed head tidied into a corner and. went With unmistakable suffering. He w u without, any doubt the most humblt and obscure sorrower at the funeral ceremony. He was John Brady, maker of the American Beauty. Mercifully he does not feel the is> finite pathos of his lot His real tragedy ended .18 years ago, when! having, nothing left to hope, he had to fair. lf-yon RESCMBIE THE ANiIfMf! AL t i PECULIARITY KOTKD IN SOMKi HUMAN COUNTENANCES. Men of the Highest Abitfty Have Had This Paoiet "Defect" Among Them t h e Qreat 8cicntist Charts* Darwin. The likeness of certain human types to familiar animals is a matter of common observation. Caricaturists, from the days of the Greek and Romans down, have made use of its suggestions. A noteworthy Instance In comparatively recent years was that of Louis Napoleon, whose brooding, aquiline countenance was readily converted into a bird of prey—the French eagle sometimes, at other times, and even more strikingly, a vulture preying upon France. In our dally speech we naturally describe men as* rat-faced, hoggish or foxy in appea9n£Pf or say of a noblelooking old man that he possesses a leonine head. Still other persons we pronounce simian in their physiognomy, and although few of us would care to merit a personal application of that adjective, it need not be so uncomplimentary as one would imagine. The dignified and venerable Charles Darwin accepted it as applied to himself with no resentment, and with a gently humorous perception of its pat coincidence with his favorite theories; while the resemblance of Oom Paul Kruger to an ancient and exceedingly sagacious gorilla was more than once remarked. __ An,amusing discovery of unhvman likeness was related by a friend of Sir Henry M. Stanley. When Stanley visited the Karaguas, an African tribe rather above the average in intelligence? he had with him a fine bulldog, whose puggy and pugnacious countenance possessed alt the unlovely characteristics of the breed. The Karaguas bestowed much attention upon this beast, and their chief, before parting with the) white men, ingenuously pointed out an odd fact which he had observed. The Karagua men, flat-faced, snub-nosed and thick-lipped, looked, he thought much llko the English dog; while the half-wild Karagua dogs, clean-cut, keen-eyed and long-nosed, looked, much more than their masters did, f like the Englishmen.

WOMEN AS NATURAL ENEMIES Writer Advances Some Good Reasons Why This Unfortunate Condition Must Exist. "The average woman now begins that Btudy of society which will merge ultimately with the marriage campaign. She makes many discoveries which she admits frankly to herself. She comes to many conclusions," says Inez Haynes Qillmore in Harper's Bazar, "which sink unnoticed Into her subconscious mind. If marriage, for Instance, is her natural career, then men are her natural prey. "But unfortunately there are never enough men in her world to go round; and of those from whom she may hope to choose some are much more desirable than others. Naturally she prefers the desirable ones—1. e., tha 'ellglbles.' But—and here she rune against her first obstacle—every other single woman In her circle has come to the some conclusion. From the Instant she realizes this she must declare war on every other member of her sex. "Men must ofton wonder at that minute and merciless examination to which, on a first meeting, every woman submits every other woman. Men must often marvel at the power of quick observation which women always develop in these circumstances. This Is only the swift Interrogation with which a,, warrior surveys the arms of his opponent Women are forever discovering new and- complex weapons in the possession of rivals. And, perhaps, the most terrifying element in the situation 1B psychological—her sense of bafflement, In that she cannot Judge of j women for men any more than thejr can Judge of men tor her. Every oth> er woman becomes -her enemy. To succeed in her world she must play a lone hand and a cut-throat game." The Quality of Mercy. Mayor Gaynor of New.

With his yellow streak the duffer deserveoV—' But Mayor Gaynor interrupted the harsh lawyer with a smile. "Did you ever hear of the mother," he said, "who visited Napoleon on behalf i^f a son condemned to death.

HORiraiirc SETTING OUT PEAR ORCHARD Sod Preferred With Holes Running Both Ways and Dug In Fall—Kieffor Is Strong Grower. In setting out a pear orchard I prefer a sod with rows runing both ways, 20x20 feet. The holes should be dug In late fall, or at least, two or three months before planting, Bays the American Agriculturist. They should be 2 feet square by 18 inches deep, so the ground will be well aerated. I always set out two-year-old trees about half inch in diameter. When Kleffer Pear. first dirt is thrown I put in the top soil and shake the tree, so the dirt will fill in well around the roots, and^ tramp to make Bolid. When I have finished planting I trim to a switch, being careful to cut branches CIOBB, cutting the tree back to 3½ feet. When the tree puts out it can be shaped to suit. I start my trees three feet from the ground and sucker lower limbs the first year. The Kleffer pear Is a very strong grower, so the second year 1 head the treeB in to about ten or twelve inches from the body. In doing this 1 am very careful thatlhe outside limbs are cut with a bud the way I want the limb to grow, also to head in an onv brella shape. I head in every year in February .or March untlj the trees are five or six years old, so as to get strong limbs and to prevent their breaking in a heavy yield. After that I head in only every two years, as by BO doing the limbs are lower, and! thfi fruit more readily picked and much finer. I have 40 acres in Kleffer trees, from four to fifteen years old. Some are on sandy soil and some on yellow clay subsoil, and there is no perceptible difference either in the siae of the fruit or coloring. The trees should be sprayed with bordeaux twice during the season. The first time after the blossom falls, and again throe or four weeks later. After the trees are planted I fill by throwing a furrow to them, leaving the clearlng-up furrow in the center as shallow as possible. The first two years I plant tomatoes in the orchard, and use 800 to 1,000 pounds of 8 per cent phosphoric acid, 6 per cent potash and 2 per cent ammonia to the acre. After the trees get to bearing I use BOO pounds acid phosphate, 300 pounds bone and 200 pounds kainit. For a cover crop I use crimson clover and plow the orchard as early in the spring as the ground is in condition, and till as long as possible, or as the limbs and fruit will allow. I have always been successful with the pear crop, and have picked as many as seven baskets from five-year-old trees. My oldest trees have averaged 20 baskets. f W TO PRUNE FRUIT TREES Branches Wanted as Leading Shoots •houtd Not Bs Touohsd—Weaker Ones May Be Plnchtd Back. to be given to the manner In which the particular kind bears fruit, writes an expert in an exchange. The cherry and the pear both bear their fruit on short spurs, and in trimming, therefore, the effort should be to produce a large quantity of healthy fruit spurs. Summer pruning does this admirably. The branches that we want to remain as leading Bhoots should not be touched; but the weaker ones may be pinched back about mid-summer, one foot or two-thirds of their growth.' This will induce the swelling of a number of buds that will produce flowers instead of branches, and in this way fruit spurs can be obtained on comparatively young trees; but with such kinds as the grape vine, the fruit Is borne on the branches of last year's growth,, so the effort should be to throw all the vigor possible to those growing branches that we want to bear fruit the next season. To do this we pinch back the shoots that we do not want to extend; or even pull these weak shoots out altogether. A little pruning is then necessary in the winter; to shorten back these strong, bearing canes, or to prune out altogether the weaker ones that we check by pinching back during the growing season.

I think there is a big opportunity in the east for well-packed, high-quality fruit in boxes. There are going to be a great many apples packed in boxes and those growers who pack scaly, wormy apples will say the box-pack is no good, says a writer in an exchange. I paid fivf> cents apiece for Baldwin apples In Ithaca last year. In the city market recently they were selling Rome Beauty apples for five cents apiece. If the growers will advertise the quality of their fruit and put the packs up so that people can depend on them, they will beat the western people out.

Professor Kildee of Iowa Agricultural College is the author of the above statement and believes that lessons to be learned by looktng over a thousand of the best representatives of the leading dairy breeds and the information and inspiration gained from coming in contact with men who are foremost in the Dairy world, with the chance to inspect the most modern in dairy machinery, all leads to success men who might otherwise blunder along without getting anywhere. He says that the profltB derived from dairy farming are determined by the following factors: Quantity of milk, quality of milk, cost of production, and the price obtained for your dairy products. Thus, it must behoove any man who is striving for success to attend this great educational exhibit, as by comparison alone can we measure our knowledge, and tho man who stays home and plugs along will not get from his efforts what his neighbor will extract from his, with more ease. The mere pleasure of sitting on a milk stool and getting just what milk you can, won't get you anywhere. You must have profitable cows and know. what you are doing all the time.

Choose the colors which go well with your complexion, your hair, your eyes. 3. Observe the decorum and wear appropriate dresses In appropriate places. It is because of her ability to understand the eternal fitness of things that the Parisienne is so often the queen of large social functions! 4. This year, for Instance, I am bringing out more dresses built on straight lines. 5. If fringes such as I border gowns with do not fit in with your personality, dare to wear any other kind of trimming that does! 6. I am keeping the light chiffon over-skirt which harmonizes or contrasts with the silk foundation. But if that is not suitable to you, dare to wear heavy brocades and satins. 7. Personally I like strong colors, colors of life and poetry, but if pastel shades are becoming, wear them, no matter what is the fashion! 8. If the high waist line such as 1 still advocate does not reveal the good points of your figure, do not adopt it! 9. Have the waist line wherever 1t 1B becoming to you! 10.

The refugees, 200 in number, under Jose Rafael Qsorio, a Honduran, were ^overtaken by Nicaraguan government troops at Somotaillo as they approached the Honduran border. Forty were killed, many others, including the leader, were wounded. All Kave up their arms and the entire movement was Bpeedily dispersed. Minister Weitzel in reporting the affair to the state department said the refugees, who were bent upon starting a revolution against President Bonilla's governmeut in Honduras, had lied from Leon when that city wan turned over to the American forces. The complete failure of the movement against Honduras is believed not only to relieve the menace of another revolution in that country, but to mark the end of disturbances in Nicaragua. THE MARKETS.

"My friends," asserted the vain damsel, "say that my walk Is the potery of motion." "Ah," mused the listener, "there is so much amateur poetry nowadays."

Some people say that advertising is all a matter of luck; that you cannot tell what advertising is going to do or whether or not it is going to pay. This may be true, bnt it is very strange that a man who gives intelligent thought to his advertising in an intelligent straight forward way, usually h*s the lnok on his side. He is lucky in his advertising because he has reduced it to a science. Advertising is governed by just as much common sense lines as govern the purchase of a lot of potatoes or codfish. have raised 63 bu. of potatoes on ^ acre of ground, Fr.

J)gptfrim UP Scores of women will do it this winter, in some poor, old base burner.; and they'll get very little warmth out of it, too, Don't you think it would be a good idea to buy a First Class Favorite Base Burner, with Triple Exposed Flues, and save enough on your coal bills this winter to buy a new dress in the spring ? It is a positive fact —the Favorite does burn less coal and throws out more heat than any other base burner made. It took an organized body of stove experts nearly fifty years to perfect it. There is no other Base Burner like it, because the features that make it such a wonderful and economical heater are patented. It is the most attractive and best made stove, too. In the Triple exposed Flues you will find one reason why it will save fully one half on your coal bills. But there are many other tjggg|^ reasons—too many to mention here. Come and see us, and we will show you that there is no other base burner that will compare with the Favorite. Dinkel & Dunbar / > v I Mr. Owen Sloan of Dexter spent Sunday at M. Dolan's.

We are apt to think that the cat't ability to see In the dark is due entirety to Its eyes, but competent authority assures us that the feline's power in this respect is due almost as much to Its "•whiskers." These dellsate hair* that project from the murele of the cat family are wonderful mechanisms, says Harper's Weekly. Each one grows from a follicle or gland, nerved to the utmost sensibility. Its slightest contact with any obstacle 1B instantly felt by the animal, though the hair itself may be tough and insensible. The exaggerated whiskers on the muzzle often project to such a distance that from point to point they Indicate the exact width of the body of the b e a s t Consider the lion stealing through the jungle at night in. search of prey, when the least stir of a twig gives alarm. The lion's whiskers indicate through the nicest nerves, any object that may be in his path. A touch stops him short before pushing through some close thicket where the rustling leaves and boughs would betray his presence. Wherever his head may be thrust without a warning from the vibrissae there his body may pass noiselessly- It is the aid given him by his whiskers, in conjunction with the soft cushions of his feet, that enables him to proteed as silently as the snuke. The hour of dining has advanced with the centuries. Froissart mentions waiting on the duke of Lancaster at five in the afternoon after he had supped and was about to go to bed. and the preface of the Heptameron shows that the queen of Navarre dined at ten o'clock in the morning. From the Northumberland Household Book, dated 1512, we learn that the ducal family rose at six, breakfasted at seven, dined at ten, supped at four, and retired for the night at nine, says the London Chronicle. Louis XIV. did not dine till 12, while his contemporaries, Cromwell and Charles II., took the meal at one. In 1700 the hour was advanced to two; in 1751 we And the duchess of Somerset dining at three, and In 1760 Cowper speaks of four o'clock as the fashionable time. After the battle of Waterloo the dinner hour was altered to six, from which time It has advanced by half hour stages to eight. So that In 400 years the dinner hour had gradually moved through at least ten hours of the day. t American habits and customs, especially American clothes, are apparently becoming fashionable among Germany's young men. Young Germany no longer contents itself with the sartorial products of the Fatherland, says the London Answers. The exaggerated university suits of American cut and manufacture please them better, and most of them are never more genuinely flattered than when they are mistaken for "Amerikaner." German clothiers have, In consequence, been obliged to lay In large stocks of American clothing to meet the growing demand. England's new torpedo boat destroyers will be given names from Shakespeare and Scott. So, in the near future, we may expect to Bee "The Mer> ry Wives of Windsor" engaging In battle, accompanied by "The Two Gentlemen of Verona," "The Lady of the Lake," and "The Antiquary." The war correspondent of the future probably will be chosen from among the book reviewers. GREATEST CROPS The advice to substitute beans for meat will receive a setback through the explosion of some boiling beans in a Colorado town. The beans tore the stove to pieces and threw the owner of the house out the kitchen door. With the militant spirit abroad as It 1s, the adoption of beans as the principal article of diet had best he postponed.

YOUNGSTER T H W A R T S VETERAN .IN EFFORT TO AVERT DISASTER. Last Seventeen Men to Face Mathewon Fall to Reach Initial Sack— Bedient's Pitching Feature of the Game. Boston had to drag a man out oi obscurity to make a hero of him, all the regular, licensed heroes being otherwise engaged. Jiugh Bedient is the name of this person suddenly thrust into the Temple of Fame and he^ certainly ought to feel right at home there. This was a case of having greatness thrust upon one, but the man on whom so much honor suddenly descended richly deserved it and will wear his laurels modestly for he is a cool, unemotional sort of law, whose aplomb neither adversity nor good fortune could shake. A few hours ago very few of the good people of this United States could have told off-hand whether Bedient was the name of a ball player or a disease or something to drink. Now everyone is hailing him a s "Hero Bedient conqueror—-of the New York Giants, *ind a game and gifted hurler. Instead of being just, one of Boston's second string pitchers, almost overlooked in the fuss being made over Stahl's club, he has become in lees than two hours the great Bedient, •whose name will be handed down in base ball history, as the man who made good in a pinch. For he outpitched tiie peerless Mathewson all the way and gave Boston the lead in the series, three games to one. The First Game.

The sub* terranean volcano has caused 340 earthquakes in the last three months. Twice, once in July and once in August, the shocks became BO heavy that they practically depopulated the city for nearly a week on each occasion. Seven scientists headed by Prof. Ramon Leon of the Belsmographlc branch of the National Observatory have just finished a report on the quakes and their causes. They declare that Guadalajara, with its 150,000 inhabitants, is built in the crater of a giant volcano which-was active about 1,800 years ago. Below the city, they ad'1 is the center of this crater, in which a new cratjr has formed, likely to break out at any time. They warn the residents of Guadalajara that beneath them is an enormous caldron of molten stone and burning coal and sulphur combined with gases which come from still further down In the bowls of tho earth. The report urges that the city be moved, or that at least the Inhabitants abandon it immediately. The center of the crater is located a trifle west of the main plaza and practically under the state palace or capitol of the state of Jalisco. Scientific measurements, soundings with a diamond drill and experiments with the gases which have been pouring through cracks in the earth In tho city are given, with detailed results of the Btudy. Professor Leon and his associates deduce that as surely as science can forecast the city will be destroyed by this buried crater, which they say is enormous, though they admit that they cannot with accuracy foretell when the volcano will burst forth. They infer that tho destruction will come within a year, for they say that the volcano, whose caldron is placed 300 feet below the surface of the earth, is what is known as ripe for the explosion. The report goes on to say that this is the first instance in the history of the world in which a city has been located over the crater of a volcano and that the heat from the buried bowl of Are accounts for the warm climate of Guadalajara, which, while 5,000 feet abovk.the sea, has the temperature all the year round of a coastal resort, with practically no change between summar and winter. Increasing heat noticed In this part of Jalisco fofcthe past year and recorded by the local branch of the government weather bureau first gave Professor Leon the idea that subterranean fires were responsible for the climate. Then came the earthquakes, the opening of fissure* In the main streets of the capital of the state, and the escape of large volumes of sulphur laden gases from these fissures. Fullest publicity is being given to the report here, and government officials are Berlously considering the removal of the capital to Juanacat- Ian on the Santiago river. The removal will follow the taking away of all the government papers, which have been transferred to Mexico City already. The state palace or capitol in Guadalajara is one of the largest and most beautiful of all the buildings of its kind in Mexico and cost approximately 7,000,- 000 pesos. It fronts on the main plaza or public square and occupies one entire end, being nearly three hundred yards in length. Guaralajara is the second city in the republic, ranking next to Mexico City in population and above It in wealth, being second only to Merida, Yucatan, in this respect. It is the market place of two of the richest states in Mexico, Jalisco and Michoacan, gad te commonly called "the Pearl of the Occident," while the surrounding territory Is known as the granary of Mexico. For these reasons the people who live here are loath to leave the city. The Catholic church will be especially hard hit if the removal idea is car* rled out. The cathedral, which is one of the finest In Mexico, contains more gold and silver orna* ments than any other church save the cathedral of Puebla, and has in addition the distinction of having been completed in 1618 and of having been, almost destroyed by an earthquake In 1750. It was severely shaken in 1818, and cracked in three places by the first series of the 340 quakes of the past three months, in June, 1912. The towers are 200 feet high, Byzantine In construction aad the stricture occupies one of the most valuable pieces of land in Guadalajara. The most precious art possession of the entire repnblle is contained In the sacristy of the cathedral It is MuriUo's painting of the "Assumption ^ t h e Virgin." and It hangs directly above the Mace. In point of color ,and freshness this stint- is hettef tS*A i&f Kejritlo now known t*fee ari«werld of Europe or America, whHe the ^^^PA^T QTiZ&YZ*- fined to an area not more than 100 miles in diameter. Neither Collma nor any other volcano in Mexico was in eruption, We "had to look closer to Guadalajara for the cause. We made a trip through this surrounding country and discovered that the city lies in tho center of what was once a volcano. "The walls of this ancient crater are fully 15 miles on all sides from the city. From tho character of the stone composingv these walls,' their evidences of fire and the condition of the lava fragments which litter the bowl of tho crater, I should say it was last active from 1,800 to 2,000 years ago. "The mountain rangf! which surrounds tho city on all sides is the wall of this ancient crater. On the north and east, you know, the plateau of Mexico 8 1 o p e s downward to these ranges; on the west and south the ancient v o l c a n o wall slopes away 5,000 feet d o w n w a r d , through some 70 or SO miles to the Pacific ocean. This was an ideal location for a volcano, and precisely similar to the location of Collma, Btill active, and Orizaba, which, while still smoking, has not been active for 400 years. FARMVILLE AFFAIRS Events of Importance Happened and Were Duly Noted. By DONALD ALLEN. ^ work is one of the best examples of the famous master. The beauty of this canvas has attracted thousands, and not a few offers have been made to purchase it, one of $250,000 coming from a New York financier. Seven times thieves have attempted to cut it from ltB frame, but each time they were foiled by the vigilance of the priests. Four of the would-be robbers were captured and are now serving terms or have died in the prisons of Jalisco. In June, 1818, when the cathedral was nearly destroyed, the section of wall on which this painting is fastened stood through all tho quake. In June, 1912, when a crack more than a foot wide was opened in tho top of the wall above this painting the gash ran downward almost to the end of tfye mahogany frame and then divided into two cracks or Assures, encircling the canvas, but never touching it. The Indians believe, and the priests aid them in this belief, that nothing can harm "la santisslma Virgen do Guadalajara," and so far the terrific tremblers have failed to injure it in the least. The canvas was given to tho Guadalajara diocese by the king of Spain shortly after the Peninsular war as a mark of gratitude for the large sums of money turned over to the crown by this branch of the church in Mexico and it was hidden ten years in a niche In the cathedral to keep it from the French at tho time of the occupation of Mexico. "The top of the bowl of the crater beneath Guadalajara," said Professor Garcia while here, "is approximately 1,500 feet in diameter, but the change is made actual bowl 1B much wider. I should say it Is r 411 A_ _, .... a quarter of a mile in width, and how deep no man can say. "The composition of the escaping gases 'indicates* that they are coming from burning coal and sulphur in a molten stato, precisely the combination which causes the eruptions of Mount Collma, the only active volcano on the North American continent, about 90 miles due south of Guadalajara. Undoubtedly Collma, which blows off In a regular eruption about the middle of every September, is connected in some unknown manner with tho hot springs, miniature geysers and many dead volcanoes which cover the territory reaching from the southern, end of the Sierra Nayarit, about 60 miles north of Guadalajara, to the sea at Manzanillo. "I would not care to prophesy, but I believe that the annual fall eruption of Collma will see some sort of disturbance here, though it may be only heavy earthquakes and not the breaking out of the volcano. We ran diamond drills so deep into the earth in the center of Guadalajara that they came back almost red hot, no matter how slowly we operated them. We lowered the best thermometers Into the holes made by these drills and they recorded heat beyond the melting point of lead. "Now, in the center of this ancient crater, which must have been larger than any volcano of which we have knowledge at the present day, was tho blow hole, or vent. Over this blow hole the Spaniards who conquered Mexico Bet up the city of Guadalajara, little thinking that they were selecting a veritable death trap for their settlement. Slowly through the eighteen or twenty centuries since it was last active this central melting pot of the old volcano has been forming a new and equaily powerful mass of molten material, which sooner or later will blow Guadalajara off the face of the earth, "An earthquake, landslides, cloudbursts or other elemental disturbances filled the opening of this ancient crater with a cap 300 feet in thickness. This cap, much thicker than that which any other volcano has had to blow off, Is the only thing that has saved Guadalajara from destruction years ago. Now long it will protect th'e city now is a question no man can answer and prove* the answer. It may bo years; to my mind it is a matter of months; in any event, I believe that the only way to save the capital is to move it bodily and move it while there is time to do so." Aside from its scientific interest, and from the unique situation of a city built on a volcano, there remains the very practical problem which confronts Guadalajara—the job of moving a city of 150,000 souls to a new location. So far, Juanacatlan Is the most likely candidate for the honor of being the capital of Jalisco, but there are a number of other towns out of range of the burled crater, all of which will be considered before the There waa more excitement In the sleepy old village of Farmville than, had been known for 20 years before. Event had followed event until Deacon Chambers had stood on the postoffice Bteps and wiped the sweat from hiB brow and said: "By heck, if this thing keeps up we shall have a railroad and dry goods drummer In here before we die!" The events were of importance enough to be recorded in chronological order: First, the widow Bevins sued Elder Jarvis for breach-of-promlse and was given a verdict of one hundred dollars. That was ten dollars a year for the ton years he had been courting her. Secondly, close on the heels of the widow's suit had come a gale of wind that had twisted the spire of the Baptist church until it resembled a gigantic corkscrew. Some of the congregation were in favor of a new spire at once, and others argued that time should be given Providence to twist it back at its own expense. In the third place, Aunt Hannah Doty, who laid claim to being a seventh daughter of a seventh daughter, predicted that the judgment day was only thirty days off. No one put entire faith In her prediction, but a Bible man had come along and sold 28 of the good books in one day, and each book was conspicuously displayed on the parlor center table. Fourthly, Mr. Gerald Walters, a young man, had come down from the city for the fall Bhooting, and was stopping at the tavern. There was nothing but a few stray chipmunks to shoot, but Mr. Walters wasn't making any fuss about it. He was the first fall shooter that had ever appeared in the village. Fifthly, Mr. Walters hadn't been shooting at chipmunks but four days when Miss Kitty Dorland came down from the city to stay with her grandparents for a few days. There was wondering and guessing over her, and Tor several nights after her arrival ^ ^ All sorts of wild propositions to tap the crater and draw off the menacing fires have been made to the authorities of Guadalajara, but the men of science say there Is no way to curb the demon of fire caged by nature bolow and that the city must be removed or it will be destroyed. One man proposed to turn the waters of the Santiago river into a huge tunnel, driven to the heart of the crater, but the earthquake specialists quickly informed the city officials that this merely would cause an immediate and more terrible explosion than if the crater were left to itself. Another man offered to tunnel into the crater from a point five miles outBlde the city, and on the slightly lower or western side, and let the contents of the crater flow out, He was disappointed when Informed that his tunnel would have to be about 500 feet in diameter £nd that the heat would be so great a hundred feet from tho inner end of the tunnel that human beings could not endure It. Thus it appears that unless a "surgeon for earthquakes" appears, and that very shortly, Guadalajara will have to pick up her houses and move to a new location. The result to real estate owners and men who*have bought or built some of the fine blocks which mark the main streets the gases coming from the fls- of tho Jalisco capital will bo financial rein. sures in various parts of the city and we found that they were not surface gases, coming from pockets In the earth and released by the earthquake, but that they exhibited all the characteristics of gases which hare been taken from the vents of Collma and Popocatepetl volcanoes. "Lastly we traced the scores of earthquake shocks which were felt here during the ten days of our stay and we found that every one was volcanic in its origin and not caused by tbtj slipping of faults in the earth, as are some of the coastal quakes of this country and the United States. All were trepidatory, that is to say, up and down quakes, usually local in character and not oscillatory, as are most earthquakes which extend over a large section of the world's surface. 'This was our first hint that the quakes were volcanic—the confined area over which the* tremors were felt. Then^he seismograph, which was brought hero from Mexico City and set up. indicated with its needle finger that the source of4 the shocks were almost beneath tbe city. "We knew (he quakes were volcanio and con- Some of these men profess to doubt the word of the scientists and to believe that the city is safe.

He Couldn't Gain a Foot many of tho householders did not go to bed until the unholy hour of 9:30. It was generally considered that foverhci'. t hnd boon reached, and that tho excitement must now gradually subside. They were all wrong. Sixthly, bills were posted for a circus to fthow at Farmville. It was tho usual Mammoth Aggregation, but it had one feature never shown before in any circus on the face of tho globe. It had a wild man from Africa who lived on raw meat and bananas, and who had to be kept chained In a cage. . The name of the wild man was "Zam." He consumed sixteen pounds of raw meat dally, and on top of that, three times a week, he devoured a bunch of bananas. He was the strongest man, wild or tame, this world ever saw, Me could kill an elephant at one blow. He could run down the ostrich or tear a lion limb from limb. At a certain point in the performance he would be taken from his cage by three men and parade arouM the ring. For threo or four days previous to the circus all work In and around Farmville was stopped, and for the first time in twenty years staid old wild-man who «ould run down at. oa* trlch had said to his employer: "I've got to have my back salary tomorrow or I quit!" "Ill give you ten of it, if wo have luck," was the reply. "I want every stiver of it!" "What'B biting you?" "I'm not playing wild man for my health!" "You know you can't strike another job if you leave me, while I can get a dozen fellows to fill your place." That was about all, except that "Zam" planned a plan to be carried out at Farmville, and it was carried ont. He went ahead and ate his raw meat and bananas and shouted all right, but when he was taken out of his cage to be paraded he whispered to his employer: "Do I get the back salary?" "Go on with you!" "Do I get it?" "Nit!" Then occurred a thing that never happened on this greon earth before and will never happen again. "Zam" threw off hia. yoke of slavery then and there. lie yelled. He whooped. Ho cast away his chains, and after seizing Aunt Hannah Doty by the body and throwing her across tho sawdust ring he made a break for the tent entrance and went running down the highway No more raw meat and bananas! No more "greatest exhibition on earth," for the Rlngtalled Circus. But what has all this to do with Miss Kitty Dorland and Mr. Gerald Walters? Simply that Mr. Walters didn't know that Miss Kitty was within a hundred miles of him, and vice versa. Simply that Mr. Walters was at the circus and Miss Kitty wasn't. Simply that Mr. Walters came very near being roughrhoused instead of Aunt Hannah. Simply that when "Zam" left the tent Mr. Walters was at his heels, and MISB Kitty was walking In her grandfather's daisy covered meadow a mile away. Mr. Walters was a good sprinter, and he put forth every effort to overhaul the dangerous menace striving to escape from bondage and become a terror to a peaceful community. He couldn't gain a foot, but he was game to hang to the trail as long as he could. The wild man took the middle 6f the highway and held it until he came opposite the meadow. Miss Kitty was sitting under a tree, weaving a wreath for somebody's brow. "Zam" wanted to get to the woods to shake off pursuit, and he must pass her within a few feet. She saw him—she shrieked —she sprang up—she saw Mr. Walters lumbering along, and then she fainted and keeled over. Something told her that it was a wild man from Africa, and that he Intended to make cat's meat of her, and it was quite sunsible of her to faint. She fainted so quickly that Bho didn't hear him call to her: "Don't be scared, Missy! I'm only a man in disguise!" And she was dead to the world as he checked his pace long enough to add: "1 don't blamo her a darned bit! Hope it will cost old Ringtail ten bones extra!" "Zam" got into the woods and pursuit was off. Mr. Walters, puffing and blowing, came up to find a good looking girl huddled among the daisies, and he ran to H brook and got water in his hat and sopped her face, making the usual mess of It, By and by Miss Kitty found herself sitting up and saying: ** "Oh, that horrid thing!" \ "But it's gone." +4 "And you were so brave! Pleaso take me home." At a plow walk, and leaning heavily on his arm, grandpa's was reached. It was reached again that evening, and the next day and the next. In fact Mr. Walters felt It his duty to pay a call at least once a day until sure that tho wild man had returned to his mother in Michigan. And all this resulted In Deacon Chambers speaking from the postofflce steps for the third time and saying: "Dam my hat. but what do you fe!» lers think now?" "What Is it?" "That chipmunk killer and the gal that fainted away are slttin' up nights together, and if that don't mean love and marriage I'll saw the horns off my best cow!"

Brown Democratic Nominee For Sheriff Tbe office of sbenff is a very important one to every citizen and taxpayer andn-quir-sa man of sound judgment and large experience. Tbe Democratic nominee, Andrew J. Brown, was born in the township ot Marion, bis father lieinsr one ot the pioneers of Livingston Connty, Later tbe family rmved to the township oi Howell and Mr. Brown spent his eirly life in attending the district scbool and working on his father's farm. A little latter in life Andrew J, Brown purchased a farm and was known for many years as one of tbe bard worktne and progressive farraerB ot Livingston County. He has always taken an active interest in onr scbool system and tor a number of years a director ot the school district. He has also held tbe office of justice of the Df>ace in Howell for two terms, In 1908 he was elected for township treasurer by a (rood majority, he being the only Democrat elected on the tick* et, the Reoublicans having that sprint/ a majority of 114 He was re-ftlecied as towusbip treasurer and held tlie office of village treasurer of Howell for two 164*08. While township and village treasurer be1 handled about seventy thousand dollars per year and kept bis looks in such condition that they came out to a penny with tbo settlements with the township and village. Tbe office of sheriff requires a man of sound judgment and some know ledge of law and evidenca. Mr. Brown has served on tbe jury on a number ot important criminal cases and as justice of tbe peace he became familiar to some extent with tbe law. He therefore has some idea of the value of evidence. He is also a strong and healthy man and would have no trouble in bringing back his prisoner. We believe that no better selection could be made if the people desire the services of a competent man. He has bad wide experience in public affairs, has been a successful farmer ot tbe county and certainly a man who has been saoceesTol in bis own aaairs would be a food man to look after tbe interest ot tbe tax payer. He is a pleasant and geniAi man and has a Urce circle of friends and acquaint. a noes in the country. We therefore ask every man, *«- trardless of party, who desires an able and efficient officer to support Andrew J. Brown for sheriff.

W i t h Proper Shade of Material the Effect Desired May Be Achieved Without an Undue Strain on the Family Purse. It is impossible not to see that the most extreme of the present fashions are only intended for the rich. To begin with, the various suits, gowns, hats and muff sets, with that flashing something we have come to know as "chic" are all too elegant and startling for any but the most fashionable thoroughfares and, nine times out of ten. they seem to need some species of equipage as well. It is only the fairly simple tailored costume that will dare to pick its way along common paths, and even then it will be remarked if it is in the latest agony, for the most somber tailor mades are now decorated with coat trimmings in rich eastern colors and fabrics, and, to be up to date, it must still hamper locomotion a good deal. In other words, despite a little tendency toward an effort at drapery, despite a side slashing here and there, the walking skirt Is still first cousin to the pillow case A DOCTOR'S TRIALS. Ha S o m e t i m e s Gets Sick Like Other People. E v e n doing good to people is hard work if you have too much of it to do. A n overworked Ohio doctor tells his experience: "About three years ago as the result of doing two men's work, attending a large practice and looking after the details of another business, my health broke down completely, and I was little better than a physical wreck* **I aaffered from indigestion and cosv etffartJoa, loss of weight and appetite, Moating and pain after meals, loss of memory and lack of nerve* force for continued mental application. 1 became irritable, easily angered nasi despondent without cause.

Tlwrj t r e t , «ad' fall • * hi This handsome "set" is of plush and marabout in the new shade of taupe called "eclipse." •i In point of narrowness. And yet how charming the new suits are with their. cutaway coats, close, long eleevea ana the absurd collars that go high up In the back and show a tremendous V of bare throat at the front! Taupe is a favorite color for them, and when a velvet or velveteen or corduroy is used the color touch may be a very pale cerise or a blue as flashing as a jewel. Buttons for these abbreviated suits—for they seem tight everywhere —are immense, some introducing the trimming color, and some, on plain gowns, Bharply contrasting. Concerning the woman who wishes to be stylish and yet not conspicuous, PLEASES THE LITTLE ONES Ingenious Toy to Be Constructed Out of Otherwise Useless Odds and Ends of Materials. There are few among the little folks who do not take a great delight in "making things" and with some old corks, matches, pins and paper, a good deal of pleasant amusement may be derived. In the accompanying sketch will be seen a little chauffeur constructed the smartness o f plush offers her the very best possible solution of the problem of the needed fur set—for who can be properly dressed in winter without a muff and neckpiece? And whether it is of a real fur or an Imitation fur matters little now, for so far as dress materials go we are at the age of makebelievo. So if you are heeding these cozy rauffllngs which give so charming a winter stamp to the plainest suit, go and look at the plush fabrics and cut the accessories according to the set in the illustration. Here a plain seal plush is used in a shade of taupe culled "eclipse," one of the vaguer, moro shadowy tones. Tho scarf of the set is straight and has bias ends, which last feature is matched by a bias trim of the flap of the pillow muff. The pillow style, by the way, is still eminently smart for muffB and nothing is easier to make at home than such a muffling; in fact, fabric muffs are rarely in any other form. The edge of the set is of marabout In the same shade of taupe, and despite its delicacy this feather trimming Is an admirable substitute for fur and wears very well. A set like this in similar fabrics, or of broadtail plush, oould be got up for fifteen dollars, while a mole set, which it very cleverly counterfeits, would cost a hundred dollars or a hundred and fifty. MARY DEAN. TO MEND KNIT UNDERWEAR Crochet Needle, in Combination With Embroidery Frame, Will Be Found Most Effective. A crochet needle is a good thing to mend knit underwear with. To do this, place the worn portion in an embroidery frame; then, with thread to suit the mesh of the garment, wool, Bilk or cotton, pick up the ends of the stitches where they are broken off and unite them, working back and forth until the holes are filled in evenly and smoothly. Perhaps the neck of the underwear has stretched in the washing until it is all out of shape; in that case run a drawstring around the neck, wet it and draw it into place; then when It is dry it will be the proper size. You may then crochet a neat beading in place of the one which has worn away; and if the buttonholes have worn out, rip off the old facing in the front and stitch on iu its place a new strip of aateen. Sew the old holes together as closely as you can to their original size and shape, then catch them down to tho sateen* and cut that to fit; then work the hole as you would if it were a new one, Fringed Four-ln-Hands. Some of tho prettiest four-in-hands that ever were come in two contrasting shades of crepe de chine. Some are fringed—and such pretty knotted fringe as it is! These may be had In solid color, though the arrangement of two stripes lengthwise is decidedly smart. These the college girl wants surely. with tho articles named, and which you will find Quite easy to make. The body consists of a complete cork, and for it a well-shaped one should be •elected. The head is made from a slice out from a second cork acd Lace Insertion. ' When laco insertion is set crosswise in a thin skirt the weight of the clofti below Eoon causes it to tear. This may be remedied by putting a piece of net a little wider than the Insertion back of it. The net strengthens the insertion, but does not detract from its daintiness. joined to the body with a short portion of a match, anJ the face can be marked upon it with the black end of a burnt match. Diagram A shows the hat, which may be cut out in paper and fastened on to the top of the head with a drop of gum, and the peak afterwards bent downwards. For the arms, two whole matches are used, and they are secured to the body with tiny pins run through the ends and into the cork. diagram B illustrates this, and holes should be made for the pins with a fine needle before they are inserted, or the wood will split. The feet and legs are composed of two matches and two "slices" cut from a small cork. When it is necessary to insert the ends of the matches into the cork, it wilL be found that they will go in easily if they have been cut into points, and to conclude with, the buttons on his coat can be indicated with the end of a burnt match, or small black-headed pins can he run into the cork, and in making the chauffeur, don't forget to employ used matches, not unused ones. To Cleanse Lacs. Here is a recipo for cleansing laces which an old lace rmaker who has woven many a gossamer web for the great connoisseur and lover of laces, Madame Modjeska, gave to her pupil and patron: Spread the lace out on paper. Cover with calcined magnesia, place another paper over it and put away between the leaves of a book for two or three days. Then all it needs is a skilful little shake to scatter the powder, and Its delicate threads are as fresh and clean aa i when first woven. TWO GAMES PUYED Love and ths National Pastime Contest, but the Former Triumphs. By CRITT T R U E M A N . "Play ball!" the umpire's voice rang out, and two games were on, one between the Yellow Feet and the Black f l a g s , and the other between Maisie Laughlin and Bessie Houston. In the first game a pennant was in question; in the latter the happiness of two, if not three llyes. Ralph Thurston, the star twirler of the Black Flags, was in the box, for the Yellow Feet had the first half, and two pairs of eyes were fastened on his flushed face. There were other eyes, of course, but those belonging to the girls already mentioned alone attracted him. He knew it was not right that he should even know they were there, for a good player is blind, deaf and dumb to everything outside the diamond, but then Thurston was after all a man, and a rather young one at that, and his heart was wavering between the two. All summer long Bessie had come out to the home groundB of the Black Flags to root for them, and her blue eyeB followed every play with experienced devotion. A month before Maisie had become acquainted with her, and of course with the Black Flags, and then the game was on between the girls. Maisie was dashing, stylish and was backed by a wealthy father. Bessie was a dear little thing, who earned her own living in a department store. Before Maisie had become a "fan" Thurston had made up his mind that Bessie and he would sign up for a life game, but since then, he did not know. The last inning had yet to be played. Realizing that he must put all thoughts of these two out of his mind, Thurston put several quick, hot ones over the plate, following with a low grounder, and had his man out without a strike. The next two were easy, and the Yellow Feet were retired in one, two, three order. The Black Flags, however, failed to connect with any of Compton's balls, and he was congratulated by his team as he, too, registered the same score. This followed f6r~"fhree innings; not a strike was called on either side, al- Put Several Quick Hot Ones Over. though there were several balls, and then Thurston went into the box for the first of the fourth inning. As he ran down field he caught sight of Maisie's waving handkerchief, and immediately the old problem confronted him. It unsteadied his arm so that when the catcher signaled for an outcurve he sent over a straight one. The man at bat found this soft, and he sent it soaring down past center, easily reaching second before the ball was captured. The grand stand went into the ecstasies UBual on such occasions, but two girls turned white and bit their lips, feeling as though some personal affront had been offered them. Usually Thurston would have been steadied by such a mishap, but today he was not In usual form, and all because of these two girls. Therefore to the dismay of the Black Flags, he let Compton connect with an incurve which he bunted, and the man on second made third amid thunderous applause from the Yellow Feet contingent and hisses from those espousing the Black Flags. The next man got his base on balls, and the Yellow Feet scored, although Thurston managed to hold them down to that. Maisie flashed Ralph a glance of scorn a s he passed on his way to the bench, so that he failed to s e e how Bessie looked, and huddled down in his coat, refusing t o reply to any remarks huffed at him by his Indignant fellow players. In the next half the Black Flags scored, and would have made a home run, if Thurston had not allowed himself to be caught between second and third. Once more his blunder cost the Black Flags dearly. After this followed a series of blunders by him that made the captain and manager rave. If the other two pitchers on whom they could depend had not been laid up, Thurston would have been taken from the box* As it was, they had to content themselves with addressing unkind remarks to him, and threatening bim with dire results if he did not buck up and show some ginger. All tbe while the real cause of this disturbance lay in his pocket. It consisted of two notes, one signed Maisie. the other Bessie. Each girl Invited him to Bpend the evening in her company. Maisie had added in her note, written on monogram paper, that it might be tbe last before she left town, and that she hoped he would not disappoint her. Malsie's was on a sheet of pad paper, but $ont$ped a pitiful little plea. , I, ,? "Honest, Ralph/'1 it Vead, "I'd not care much what happened if I couldn't come to see you play, but I get tired rooting when I can't tell you afterwards how proud I am of our star pitcher. Please come." On one side was Mai si o with the possibilities of Influential assistance, combined with the girl's brilliant attractiveness; on the other, sweet, faithful, devoted Bessie, fitted by training and inclination to help a man in playing not only baseball, but any game of life, willing to sit and root for him if afterwards he would come to her for comfort and congratulations. No wonder that his arm went back on him, and that his eyes misjudged. Thurston was playing u bigger game than he realized. "He's gone stale," groaned the grand stand, while the bleachers tooted horns and rang huge cowbells to show their disapproval. "Pull him out!" some yelled as Thurston continued his blunders; but as there was no one to take his place, the captain contented himself with coaching with all his might, while the manager tried to stimulate interest by betting heavily against the Yellow Feet, covering his money by judiciously placed bets on the other side, made by those in his employ. Finally the first half of the ninth was reached. The score stood 4 to 1, in favor of the visitors. Instead of the usual cheering and applause which had greeted Thurston as he ran to the box, thero came a dead silence more expressive than any demonstration. As he had left the bench, he had caught a sight of the pale faces of the two girls, and he wished sthat a hole would open up before his feet, in which he might hide from them and the mocking crowd. He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists until the fingers bit into the palms of his handB, then began pitching with all his old-time vigor. As in the first inning, he put the men out in one, two, three order, and the grand stand went wild with joy. The Yellow Feet were not worried, however, and indifferently trotted out into the field. A sneer disfigured Compton's face as he swung his arm, but It changed to something else when Gryce, the captain of the Black Flags, struck out a home run. This rattled the man in the box, for he let the next man get to second on a line drive that easily passed left field, and the third took his base on balls. Thurston then came to bat. His twobagger brought In another run and put a man on second. The next man bunted, and three bases were filled. The score was now 4 te 3, with all bases filled. The manager, Gordon, was the next man at bat, but he fanned out, as did the next. Then came Burchell, who always managed a two-bagger. His ball rose gracefully, soared out and over the head of right field, and the men began eating up the ground to get homo. Just aa the man from third began to slide, the ball fell into the glove of the right fielder, and the pennant belonged to the Yellow Feet. The work of all the Black Flags had been good. They had assisted again and again in keeping down the score of the Yellow Feet when Thurston had gone to pieces, and naturally blamed their defeat on him. The man said nothing. Sullenly he changed to his street clothes, then wrote his resignation. The manager took it, saying tartly: "All right, if you feel that way." "I guess all of you feel that my room is better than my company," Thurston said sourly, as he slouched out of the club house, hands deep in his pockets, head bent down. Just as he emerged an automobile dashed by. In it were several of the cheering Yellow Feet and Maisie. In the second of passing she tossed her head, looking at him with unbared contempt. As he turned to make his way to the street cars, a soft voice said at his elbow: "Don't run over me, Ralph," and starting, he saw Bessie smiling up at him, although her eyes were red with tears of disappointment. "They expect too much of you, working you until your arm goes stale; it's a shame," she said comfortingly. "Bess," Ralph said, catching her hand and gripping it hard, "I'm a piker; I went up in the air on this game, honest." "Everyone does that sometimes," she said softly. "I say, Bess," he asked sheepishly, "I wonder if you'd be afraid of me in another kind of game?" and Bessie understood. She answered, as they walked slowly towcrdsthe street cars: "Not yet, Ralph; Til root for you always." Comparative Luxury.

STORING CROPS FOR WINTER Cellar Should Be Carefully Cleaned and All Defects In Walls Made Tight With Mortar. (By WALTER B. LEUTZ.) Have the cellar carefully cleaned before storing away any of the winter supply. If there are defects in the wall make them tight with mortar. K the windows are looBe, repair them. These little things may be the means :>f saving the entire contents of the cellar. If the potatoes incline to rot, sort carefully and put in no -luestionable specimens. Dust the seemingly perfect ones with lime. If the winter squashes are picked before they become fully ripe they will be much more apt to mold and rot. Make the cabbage heads which incline to burst into kraut. If you fear trouble in keeping it cook part and put Into cans, sealing with paraffin. The solid heads need not be put Into the cellar until November, but may be left growing. Do not despise tho small beets, turnips and apples. The stock will need them If you do not. And it Is astonishing how much stuff of this kind chickens require to keep them at their bent. Give them the parings now and save the small fruit or vegetables for winter use. If you have more stuff than you need and it la not of sufficiently good quality to offer for Bale, perhaps some neighbor could use It to advantage. Many a poor man is glad to get even the culls and windfalls from a large orchard—and the latter is the better for their removal. METAL POST IS SUBSTANTIAL Invention of New York Man Provides Firmer Hold In Hole—Wires Caught in Notched Bolts. The Scientific American in describing a fence post designed by Porter K. Buahnell of Medina, N . Y., says: Aa Illustrated herewith, Mr. Bushnell's Forte* Post ef 8lmpto Design. fence post Is constructed of metal in the form of an angular channel flaring at the bottom to form feet that will provide a firmer hold in th* post. hole.

(By PROK. W.'.M. .'EATdN', Connecticut Experiment Station.) One of the greatest advantages of the silo is that it can bo made to tide over the time when there la a serious diminution of green pasture feed during July and August. The question of the size of a silo becomes very important. During the warmest part of the year silage spoilB very rapidly where it comes in contact with air. Spoiled silage is a dangerous substance to feed, r e s i d e s tainting tho milk and upsetting the digestion of the cow, it often becomes poisonous. To avoid this, it is necessary to feed off each day from one and a half to two inches. If this is done the silage does not have time to change or ferment much. A silo 18 feet in diameter will feed 42 animals; 1G feet in diameter 33 animals, and 12 feet will feed 20 animals. If the herd is large enough, two silos of different diameters are a great economic convenience. For the winter feed use the large diameter, and for summer the small one. Another advantage is in filling. One will be settling while the other is being filled and one-third more silage can be put in both. The tall, narrow silo is better than the broad low one, The loss is much less. Taking all things into consideration, it is evident that a round, woodenstave silo is the best. And a wooden silo, If taken care of as it always should be, can be made to last aB long as a wooden building. Certain processes can be applies to the wood, such as soaking it in some wood preservative or applying asphaltum and creosote substances to the bottom of the staves for a few feet, keeping the other outside areas well painted. These are factors which would determine the lasting qualities of a silo. The size of the silo should be adapted to the size of the herd. A tall silo with a rather narrow diameter is preferable. Silage is preserved best with the least loss in a Stave Silo. round wooden-stave silo, Tho kind of corn to silo is that which will produce the most nutriment per acre, whether it be flint or dent. It is an economic advantage to have corn mature for siloing. The middle of the growing season is July 20, from which date tho planting and harvesting of any variety can be determined. The practical applications of these suggestions ought to increase the value per acre of silage from 40 to 50 per cent, •GARDEN 0** FARM NOTES Keep weeds from going to seed. Plant salsify (vegetable oyster) for next Bpring. Don't try to save money by buy* lng cheap seed. Farm tests are worth more than all the theories. Don't sow alfalfa seed on very re* cently plowed land. Continue the cultivation, and keep up the fight against weeds. It is none too early to commence plowing for the 1913 crops. Guernsey cattle are prime favorites in the dairy sections of the west No animal on the farm should suffer from hunger, thirst or cold." There never were better opportunities in vegetable garden than today. Build a silo and save much of tho fodder that would otherwise go to waste. Go after the extra strawberry vines and cut them out. Do not he afraid to slash thenr. ~ Beet greens are extremely edible at .eight weeks of age, even if the roots are only nubbins. Two of the best acreage-saving money-making propositions up to the farmers today are silage and alfalfa. Stormy days should not be idle days on the farm. Look about and see if you cannot find some profitable work. If you intend to allow that second crop of clover to be plowed under, it will not hurt to pasture it from this on. Set out celery plants which are to he used for a late crop, and bank the plants which were set out in June or July.

He turned the revolver upon himself, the bullet grazing his temple. He made death sure by swallowing two ounces of carbolic acid.

It then passes back over the bottom and up the central flue to the chimney. Just think of this great radiating surface, and it is more than doubled, because the flues are SET OUT frcm the back of the stove. The flues therefore radiate from all sides, and the back of the stove radiates heat, also. This feature alone places the Favorite in a class by itself, making it the best and most economical heating stove in existence. But other features of its construction must not be overlooked. Would like to tell you all about them. Do not put off buying your heating stove until the cold days come. Come and see us now, and our Favorite will be your Favorite too. TJ?e IAVORITE Being a Story of How we Were Convinced First, we were attracted by the handsome appearance of the Favorite, but we did not decide to handle it for this reason alone, although we decided it was the most handsome base burner on the market. » We wanted a better reason than an attractive looking stove, so we looked it over thoroughly, comparing it point by point with other base burners, and this is what we found: That the material from which it is made is all of the highest grades—the doors, mica frames and joints oeing absolutely air and paper tight. We were told the Favorite produced the most satisfactory results with about half as much coal as other base burners. We discovered this to be true. We found the reason to be in its Triple Exposed Flues. The sectional cut herewith explains these flues better than we can in words. The heat passes Dinkel & Dunbar Dr. H. F.

A remedy that does not perform b y force w h a t should be accomplished by persuasion is Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets, After using them, Mr. N. A. Waddell, 3 1 5 Washington St, Waco, T e x , says: "Almost aU a y life I have beam troubled with coMtipation. and have tried many remedies, all of which seemed to cause pain without giving much relief. , 1 finally.tried Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets and found them exooftent Their action Is ptoaeant and mild, and their, chocolate taste_ makes them" easy-to take. I am more than glad to recommend them." "Qean up the bowels and keep them clean," is the advice of aM physicians, because they realize the danger resulting from habitual constipation. Do not delay too long, but begin proper curative measures. Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets are ft new remedy for this old comphriftt, and a great improvement over the cathartics you nave been using in the past. They taste like candy and work like a charo. A trial will convince you. Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablet* are told by all druggists, at a; cent* a box containing' 2$ doses.

One of the most difficult and at tho BUDIO time moat essential of habits to form is that of saving. Of course, there are many persons in all walks of life who, although they are In com' fortable circumstances, are so penurious as to be absolutely opposed to | parting even with their pennies Their very lives are controlled by the idea of getting along with as little as possible even at the risk of earning for themuelveB a reputation for stinginess. Such persona, however, make up a class all to themselves, and generally deserve the contempt in which they are held by their fellow-beings. On the other hand, the spendthrift deserves as much, if not more, condemnation, perhaps, for the facility with which he allows his often hard-earned money to slip through his hands. There Is a golden mean Tjetweeo theBe two extremes of character and it is found in the ability of a man to save from his earnings sufficient for the proverbial rainy day. The advantages of saving may be demonstrated to us in many ways and on many occasions, but it remains for necessity to impress its importance upon our minds. It may be that the manner of living may account in large measure for ih« universal- habit- of- spending all that we make—the opportunities for doing so are very great and at the same time seem very real and imperative, and it 1B only after the pocket is empty and we face stern necessity that we are able to discriminate between opportunity and temptation. Palestine Is fast becoming one of the great orange-growing countries of the world. Much fruit of excellent quality is being shipped every year to Ixmdon and other markets in northern Europe, and this year the crop of the district near Jaffa, the port of Jerusalem, is estimated at 1,500,000 boxes. P^arther up the Syrian coast Tyre and Sidon are expected to reach n total of 400,000 cases of oranges exported and 200,000 cases of lemons. For a small country Palestine has many interesting and valuable products. Its olive groves arc as productive as they are ancient, and Its vineyards yield grapes of fiiio quality In great abundance. Notwithstanding the drawback of a sometimes very deficient and usually scanty water supply, Syria produces a large uuantlty of excellent food. Hut It is not easy to think of Palestine's exports of oranges without thinking of the immeasurably more important exports and Ideas and Ideals from that littlo country.

The booming of the national Balute of 21 guns fired from the United States revenue cutter Morrell, the hoarse whistle blasts of big freighters and the shrill screeches of yacht and motor boats sirens marked the progress of the flolttla through the "cut," the channel approach from the north, while thousands of enthusiastic men, women and children lining the Bhores of Grosse lie, Bois Blanc Island and the great piles of limestone on either side of the channel, added their voices to the general din and noise-making.

North Pacific whalers are not unanimous in accepting the theory that whale fisheries are playing out on account of the extinction of the whales.

He thinks that in time the whales will be hack In their old-time haunts, or discovered in their new ones. The United States consul at Prague says there are practically no flies is Bohemia.

The Dynamiters Trial A ruling of considerable importance was made by Judge Anderson in the dynamiting cases, when he denied a motion of the defense for permission to have access to all the hooka, papers and records taken from the offices of the iron workers, and now in the district attorney's possession. The court said that the defense should not be embarrassed by the ruling, as it would see that the defense is permitted to examine and introduce in evidence any specific documents lor which it may make an application at the proper time. Mr. Miller declared the motion of the defense was a false and fraudulent' one, as it set out that the papers had been seized by private detectives.and by police ofiicors and had been turned over to the district attorney, whereas they came Into custody of the district attorney under an order from ' the lederal court.

To Francis J. Heney, also scarred by the bullet of an assassin, the colonel gave his answer to a challenge, now half withdrawn, hurled at him by his political opponents. He dictated a message for the California prosecutor to carry into Wisconsin tliat sketched in vigorous phrases the full details of the Progressive trust program. The issuing of the statement followed close upon the heels of an announcement by the attending surgeons that the colonel would be permitted to leave Mercy hospital Monday morning. Fatigued by Strenuous Day. The doctors found him much fatigued in consequence of his activities during the day. In fact, he was •«o tired that the doctors were apprehensive for a time that he might have a serious setback, and they made the most thorough examination of him that they have made since his arrival in Chicago from Milwaukee. "The colonel simply does not realize what a serious matter his wound is." Dr. Murphy said as he was emerging from the hospital. "We took him severely to task for his strenuousness during the day and we simply must save him from himself. He seems almost beyond holding In check. "The colonel must remain absolutely quiet all of tomorrow. The very suggestion of his taking a motor ride is preposterous. He cannot see anybody tomorrow except the members of his immediate family."

SUCCESS FOLLOWS \ JUPKHOUS FARMING IN WESTERN 6AISADA IT " 18 Tko »tO«y »f ~ t W Big* Farme/ in Western Canada, and the immense < profits he has made In the growing of >• graitr.-has-^been faQM ajad retold. He \&e been foutid t n a n r parts pf the / provinces of'MaaJto&a, Saskatchewan, and AlbeTta. "'His splSadid farm bnildings have been pictured, his Reaction outfits described and his prince^, surroundings, resultant $? jk?i f^Q?*88 i n growing grain, bave.b«JBn^DO»ttr*y«d by letter, press and camera:^ It certainly is not to his discredit that by successfully applying common sense and' up-to-date methods to the conditions -. that climate, a good soil, and splendid ' market have placed at hand, that he has made the best use of them. He is not too proud to admit that he came to the country a very few years ago> handicapped as to money, leaving behind him unpaid mortgages in his old home land (which are now wiped out), and he is Btill today the same goodhearted fellow he was in the days that he had to work for a neighbor, while the neighbor broke the land on his homestead, which went to make up the settlement duties. Then, there, too, is the farmer and the farmer's son, already wealthy, who has bought large holdings in Western Canada, in either Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta, who has made forty to one hundred per cent, on his invest' ment, whose big grain crops and whose Immense cattle herds are helpi n g to improve the country. Health and strength, energy and push, and bull dog grit are as essential in Western Canada as in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, or any of the states from which so many of these people come, and then, when you have added to that a fair amount of means, with which to make a start, the land which is only waiting for the skill of the* husbandman will quickly respond. But there is the smaller farmer, the.- man who has not made sufficient in four or five years, that he might comfortably retire if he felt like it. There are many of them in all the three Provinces. It is not the less to his credit that he has earned his homestead by the three years residence, that he is free from debt, and has a reasonable bank account. He, too, came to the country handicapped by debts, and with very little means. He Is contented, has a good home, land free of encumbrance, some stock, and with good prospects. One of these writes: "I formerly lived near Dayton, Ohio, on a rented farm, had as good a chance as the average renter, but after ten years of hard work, satisfied myself that if I ever expected to secure a home, I would have to undertake something else. Hearing of Western Canada, I Investigated, and seven years ago last Spring settled in a homestead and purchased {on time) an adjoining half section, arrivingwith a carload of household effects and farm implements, including four horses and three cows, and $1,800 in money—my teu years' work in Ohio. "The first year our crops gave us feed, the second year 100 acres of wheat gave us $1,800; no failure of crop since starting here. I have now 22 head of horses, 15 head of cattle,, and 35 hogs. We own 1,120 acres of land, and have same all under cultivation. Was offered at one time $35.00- per acre for a half section where wo live, and all the other land could bo sold today on present market at $30.00 per acre. Should we care to dispose of our holdings, could pay all debts . and have over $30,000 to the good, but the question is where could we go to invest our money and get as good returns as here? "We have equally as good, if not better prospects for crdips this year, as we had three years ago, when our wheat reached from 30 to 48 bushels per acre. § 1 never believed such crops could be raised until I Baw them myself. I had 15 acres that year that made 50 bushels to the acre. Our harvest will be ready by the 12th. We h a r e this season In crop 400 acres of -wheat, 125 of oats, 90 of flax, and run three binders, with four men to do the stooking. "We certainly like this country, and the winters, although the winters a r e cold at times, but we do not suffer aa -- one would think.

In a trip just completed, in which he spent more than two years in the jungles of a territory whose mystery has for years repelled as well as attracted the adventurous, Russell Hastings Millward, America's youngest explorer, has not only captured the world's mileage record by traveling across more than three thousand miles of unknown country, but has opened up for the merchant and archaeologist a land whose wealth has hitherto only been guessed at, says the New York Tribune. The popular impression that there is no more work for the twentieth century explorer could And no better refutation than In the exploit of this young man. The district of Peten, lying to the. .westward of British Honduras, between the Caribbean coast and the Bay of Campeche, has been known Blnce time immemorial to all Central Americans as "The Mystery." There Millward has located lakes and mountains whose existence has hitherto been a matter of rumor only. For the first time a white man has penetrated those fastnesses and seen the ruins of temples and palaces which, now overgrown and buried under the foliage of the jungle, were once the centers of magnificent cities. He has not only outlined the extent of the once flourishing empire of the Maya race, but of Importance to the world of commerce, he has practically opened up a new field whose riches will in a few years be one' of the chief assets of the Guatemalan government. To see this great unknown jungle with his own ^jwzfcffflfdimjirTJZXiYqzu?-' 'mzjicg Jiir' PAZ&rfQirj?- •A;->V- -eyes, thus doing what no white man had ever done before, the youn£ explorer left New York two years ago. He went straight to Belize, a town on the Caribbean coast of British Honduras, •and there, while making arrangements for the expedition, he met Claudio Urrutia, government surveyor for Guatemala, who had made short trips inland and who helped get together men, pack animals and provisions for the plunge into Peten. Within a few weeks seventy-five men and a hundred mules had been collected and everything was in readiness for the start. Wtlb, all hia knowledge of the natives, which he hrw acquired ni numberless shooting and exploring expeditions in the Central American country during previous years, Millward had hardly reckoned upon the difficulties which faced him in his determination to see this land of mystery. "El Peten" it was called. What a paralyzing effect this unknown country would have upon his men he did not realize until he was some weeks on his way into the jungles. As settlement after settlement was left behind, and the train of mules and men moved further and further and further into the bleak uplands and through the tangle of dense swamps, the problem of averting the ever-threatening mutiny of the men became more pressing. ' In contrast to the Carlhs, or coast natives, the party contained a large percentage of Mayas of pure Wood. Not only did they hold aloof from their Carlh companions, but the consciousness that the white man was leading them up into the very country sacred, according to tradition, to their ancestors, who would avenge the Insult of trespass, terrified them. When night came on they were usually In a state of panic, and during the day the slightest accident out of the ordinary served to put them on their guard against some imaginary evil. Millward, talking to them in their language, tried repeatedly to discover the cause of their fears. The nearest he came to it -.**• was on one occasion when, ascending a ridge of ' land one noon, his machete men suddenly stopped and refused to go any farther. He had been busy with his instruments, and the first he noticed of impending trouble was when he looked to to see his four machete men huddled together talking In an undertone. He ordered them to go ahead, but they drew closer together, giving every Indication of terror. Millward approached and asked tfcem what the trouble was, hut they refused to talk. Knowing that, while these Mayas might be coaxed or led- almost anywhere, it was a waste of time to try > to force them into anything, he ealmly sat down and had * smoke. After a little the Indians also sat down and began to smoke, but all the while casting glances about them which seemed to Indicate that they expected momentarily to be annihilated. Finally, after using all the eloquence of which he was capable. Mlllwarti was able to calm their fear* and get them to tell him the secret of their Jtrange actions. Little by little he learned that fears and years before—even the men themselves did not know how long—a great Maya hunter had been prowling through that part of the jungle. On the ridge of land bofore them some junglo beast leaped out upon him and killed him. According* to the machete men, therefore, this hunter's flerco spirit was still roaming that hillside, raging In its agony and jealous of any mortal presence. Should a man attempt to go up that hillside and cross that ridge some horrible doom which only a spirit could invent would befall him. . The men ended by flatly refusing to venture upon the highland, and at last Millward compromised by crossing the ridge alone and sending the Mayas around the hill to meet him on the other side. But it was during the nights that the effect of the jungle upon the men was most evident. In some respects their superstitions were justified by the unearthly sunset effects and the appearance of the Bky at night. The sun sank in a blaze of glory, followed almost immediately by the gloom of midnight. With the arrival of darkness the appearance of the constellations, large and wonderfully brilliant, was awe-inspiring. Far off on the northern horizon the north star appeared, while on the other side of the zenith sparkled the Southern Cross, for this strange country is said to be the only spot on the globe where this combination of planets is visible. The Mayas, alive to every new occurrence, were quick to notice this the first night when camp was pitched on an upland above the jungle, and for houra they discussed the phenomenon, squatting around the fires and looking up at the stars. By this time the expedition had begun to penetrate the forbidden country, and almost Immediately the first signs of an ancient civilization appeared. One day Millward and his men, hacking their way forward, came out suddenly Into a little glade in the woods, In the center of which stood* a large cylindrical stone. Its sides and upper surface were a solid mass of exquisite carving, in which the figures of birds, flowers and the form of the serpent were repeated in a riot of designs. On the top of the stone a sloping basin was hollowed out, and from this ran a channel to the outer edge. There was no room for doubt that It was one of the ancient sacrificial stones of the Mayas, and that the natural glade in which it had rested for centuries was once the sylvan holt of holies of the Maya priests of the locality, where they "averted evil" to their people by human sacrifices. It was the finding of this sacrificial stone that ItttfodtiSeir the first o r the stone Tttlaefc*. Although literally imbedded under the rank undergrowth of the jungle, enough was uncovered to show that at some timo it must have been a place of importance. Ruined columns lay about. and great slabs of granite, some of them weighing many tons, were scattered in Irregular hea'psV* The wavering lines of broken slabs and columns which in places showed through the foliage indicated the general outline of streets. In the decoration and carving of these slabs there was every mark of an art which, although in its form widely at variance with that of the Egyptians. » perhaps as old. There were indications, too, of a culture as ancient At the time of the conquest of the Mayas, in a warfare which began about 1540 and continued for years, a city called Tihoo, on whose site the Spanish Merida is now located, is supposed to have been the capita) of the empire. The old Spanish chroniclers relate that the palaces and pyramids of the Maya city were so ancient that from the mounds built by the earliest Inhabitants there grew trees a thou« sand years old. In Maya times each of the artificial mounds or pyramids was crowned by a temple. The massive stone blocks employed in the construction of these were used by the Spanish conquistadores in the erection of their own homes. Merida, In fact, got its name from the old Spanish city which was long known aa the "Rome of Spain." Its unique replica in the new world was so filled with magnificent Indian temples and palaces that the dazzled Spaniards likened it to the old world city. When Palcnque, in the neighboring department of Chiapas, WB.3 discovered by a parly of Spanish travelers in 1^0 the existence of a Maya empire was unknown. There had never been any mention of its existence in the reports of the Spanish Invaders, and there was no tradition even that it had ever been. 1'alenque Is thought to have been abandoned as early as the twelfth century, and to this day it b3 not known by what name It was called. , If the feat of Millward In his two years or fighting the untrodden jungles and wastes of Peten had yielded nothing more than the knowledge of these old stone cities it would have been of priceless value, according to archaeologists, in making possible a study of Maya history and culture. So far they are almost ns much a mystery as they wore two hundred years ago. The elaborate carvings and petroglyphs which mark the burled temples and palaces are undecipherable, and what little history of the movements of the Mayas and their ancestors, their life and art, has survived has been only In the form of legends kept alive by obscure Maya tribes. Mr. Millward's explorations have established the fact that the contlnes of the Maya empire extended far south of the belt of towns and cities whose ruins dot the northern coast toward the Bay of Campeche. In the course of his explorations Millward came ipon more than three hundred groups of ruins, which mark the site cf what wore once villages and towns of from 1,500 to 1:,,000 population each. The latter have all the characteristics of great centers of a highly developed life. As in the famous Palenque, many of the ruins in this hitherto undiscovered land which Millward penetrated are notable in their dimensions, decorations and suggestions of the high degree of civilization which created them. But as ever, owing to the superstition of the Mayas in his party, he was unable to give them more than scant attention. For four months Millward and his men tolled through forests whose richness he declares Is not even suspected by peoplo familiar with adjoining countries. Immense mahogany trees of a Blze and quality unapproached by anything known to commerce grew on every side. Rosewood, ebony, cedar, logwood, chicle, cacao and rubber trees of dimensions unknow.n to the famouB district of QuWUana Roo, extended far northward Into the districts which he afterward explored. Orchids of the most delicate hue, a half dozen of whose bulbs would make a small fortune for a Fifth avenue florist, trailed from the trees and dangled the path so as to be a nuisance. Four months and a half from the time they left Belize, Millward and his men came out of tho jungle at Laguna Carmen, near the Bay of Campeche, in the Gulf of Mexico. There they put in a month of good rest. Several of the men had died from fever and exposure, and a percentage of the mules had been lost. The trip, however, was a marked success. Preparations were at once made for the return trip to Belize, and for this Millward mapped out a route which would take him across about sixty miles further to the north. It was when a month and a half inland on this second trip that there occurred one of the most Important incidents of the enterprise. This was the discovery of four large and hitherto unknown lakes. Here, again. Millward found that their existence, If- not their location, was already known to his Mayas under the name of "The Four Asters." Maya villages continued to dot the Jungles as the party progressed eastward, and in all of them the explorer was well received. As Millward worked further on in the general direction of Belize, his destination, and began to approach the other coast he came upon occasional settlements of Caribs. In physique and strength he considers these men far superior to the Mayas. The now territory, whose resources have been revealed through the enterprise of this young explorer, is believed to be one of the most valuable finds, commercially and historically, of many decades. The untold riches of its forests are not only accessible, but Mr. Millward Is likely to prove to a large extent Its developer as well as Its discoverer, since he already is at work on plans for the establishment of a direct route overland from the Caribbean Sea to tho Gulf of Mexico, which would'open up the greaterp art of the region to travel and commerce. FOR THE IDEAL PUMPKIN Pit Why Wait Until Thanksgiving to Enjoy This Exclusively , American Delicacy7—Make It Now Our neighbor came to call eariy this morning with lips stained a dark purple from a Baunter through the arbor; on his arm he carried a basket of grapeB and in each hand a big red apple, and in his bottonhole a spray of goldenrod, and the first red autumn leaf made him quite gorgeous. Under his arm he carried a pumpkin, so we Invited him to breakfast. One should not wait until Thanksgiving for the flrBt pumpkiu pie, but begin putting their uppetite in training for the feast by some preliminary work on the American pastry. Steam the pumpkin instead of boiling it, and when cool press it through a tine sieve or vegetable preBS. For each pie allow a pint of this strained pumpkin, ono cup of rich milk, one egg, one-half cup of sugar, one teaspoon of ginger, one-half teaspoon of allspice, one-hulf teaspoon of cinnamon and a little salt. If\ the milk is brought to tho boiling point before the other ingredients are added tho . pie will bake more smoothly. The crust should be baked before tho filling is put In, as this prevents It becoming soggy. Unlike most custard pies, pumpkin requires to be baked quietly. When the top is brown, ilrm to the touch and glossy it is done. —Henrietta D. Grauel. in tho Cleveland Leader. TRY THE CASEMENT SCHEME One of the Most Effective and Economical Window Dressings That Has Been Devised. One of the neatest and prettiest ways of dressing the window of a room In which it is not desirable to have flowing draperies la ro use the casement scheme of decorations. For this purpose there comes a specially sheer and fine cotton material culled casement cloth, through which the light shines although the interior of the room is shielded from outside eyes, but a similar charming effect may be produced by cotton voile, by Chinese or wash silk, none of which materials are costly. The arrangements of ihn drapery are simple. It is whirred seantly at both its* ends upon fine sliding rods of brass which fit Into grooves at top und bottom of tho casement, if it he a full length French window and against tho sliding casements, if the window la of the American type. Another advantage of this scheme of window dressing is the ease with which the draperies may be laundered, for, being straight, guiltless of ruffles and always unstarched, the merest tyro may wash, iron and readjust them, Curried Cod, Two slices large cod, or remains of any eedllsh, three ounces butter, one onion sliced, One teacup of white stock, thlckerring of butter and (lour, one tablespoon nf curry powder, onefourth pint of cream, salt, and cayenne to taste.

In fact the course has always been a losiug proposition iu one way or another. Consequently the present Committee decided to increase tkeir number, thus decreasing the loss per man at the end of the season. They have been very fortunate in so doing and the Committee for 1912-13 believing that a good lecture course is for the best interest of the community, agree to stand back of the course, to help iu the sale of tickets, and if necessary to render financial aid. The committee is now composed of MesBrs. ! Dr- H. F. Sigler W. W. Barnard ! Rev. W. H. Ripon W. J . Dunbar R. W. Caverty D. D. Smith Dr. C. L. Sigler Rev. J . W. Mitchell • F„ G. Jackson Wm. S.

The course certainly warrants the extra .charge. I t far excelle any set of entertainments ever given in this village.

I was abcut to leave the capital of Peru wit^^ut dreaming that, within a stone's throw, there were slumbering the ruins of a prehistoric civilization that had not yet passori away when Pizarro laid the foundation of the Ci'.y of the Sovereigns. The sacred city of Pachacamac Is knor>n to, and mentioned by every traveler who incmC.-ca Lima within the limits of his itinerary. It has been visited and described from the days of the Coruiuista- •dores with more or less accuracy, until Ur. Max Uhle made a special study of it and published his monumental work. If these ruins of the Lurin vall «y are world famous, It is not thus with those of the valley of the Rimac, and if Pachacamac Is Xnown to »11, solitary Caja7narqulila is burled *n an obscurity «s deep a* the sand that covers It, -while few, very few, 4Hthorfl even make men- 4IPK of it. I Bald that I was about r1o leave Lima. It was 'fh© CV4} ot my departure wfren * t learned from Profr-KRor Saville, of New York, ihi: weirknown Ecuadorian explorer, that he had visited th(* reiiup that very •dlaj. How l wished that -I could have accompanied him! t concluded f h a f regrets were useless, aad 1 was about to reUoquish all hope of ever seeing the old Peruvian city, when I learned that the departure from Oil la o of the Ucayali had been postponed for a day, Communicating thiH fact to Doctor Saville, he most graciously V9lunteered to accompany me on the morrow. It was an opportunity I readilf grasped. Thus it happened that we met by appointment at the Lima station of the Oroya railroad at 8:30 on a morning early In July. Gray clouds, as usually, hung heavily over the city when we boarded the train... which Boon pulled out of the station, to begin the steep journey up the Andean elopes. A little way .outside of Lima the sun was emitting in a cloudless sky, scattering Its xays through an atmosphere as transparent as any you could wish to see in Castile or Aragon. livrtt and thert on the route the adobe ruins ot pre-Inca civilization might be observed, for the Rimac valley Is richer in such ruins than any other part of the coast. ; The morning was bright and exhilarating when wc arrived at Santa Clara railway station. Leaving Mrs Saville to proceed to Chosica, the professor, his young son, and myself alighted. A little mule car, run on tracks, awaited us. It might accommodate about nine persons. Wc ffpeang to the scats, the driver whipped up his mules, and off we were on the long, sandy road between fields of sugar cane. Poor mules, cut and bleeding, how we pitied them! But in those countries animals are haecUett1 without mercy. A run of a couple bf mi!6B or more, passing on the. way the little train that is used to haul the eanm or carry the laborers, we arrived near the dwelling of the hacienda, now leased, I understand, by Chinese*. Some distance from the house we alighted, to continue the journey on foot in the direction of the mountains. For a while we had n good, though dusty road, but the greater part of the Journey had to be made through sandy plains, which did not Improvo our -parsona! Bppaaranco, ao-that-we prcaTn"r(elf"a71>Tc~ tare of dust and wretchedness on our return to the Hotel Maury in Lima. Our way was now and then obstructed by adobe wails, or by the canals used for irrigation, and over these we had t o climb or jump It was not long before we caught sight cf the ruins, senary and abandoned. With the exception of a herd of cattle and the .mounted herdsmen, bcsldcr -::\ occasirml buzjtarfl or vulture, no living Dei..; was in sight. « Cajamarquilte lies about 2,T niles from Lima, a s yon ascend the valley of the Rimac, but In a aid* valley, in a plain among the spurs of the Jsjtfps, The valley-4e- watered by a canal, dug, paepably, at a period antedating the advent cf tbafSpan lards. In Cie vicinity are several haefesjdaa, each as Huachtpa and La Niverea. and *ati jpccaetonel "tambo" or rural inn, where, If ycu^care to, some kind of refreshment may be had*-' These, however, are hardly Visible from Uw^ruin*. near which on.e solitary hut Is to bo 'aeafF Tears afo, whan Squier vUited the place, iCkagrvlBfl ware the haunt of robbers that gave s o Stttft troukM tn tb** Peruvian authorities, but the W r l f t t c i i t t e » out cf business, and It . , r. . ^ , + . , • . • Jtt&s&z* ^epao? j?r cx&ju*&ue<2ztz$i^h-t is now quite safe to visit Cajamarquilla. In fact, the. thought of robbers was not. connected in my rcJnd with Cajarmarquilla, uniil I read Squier's work. During our brief stay among the ruins, it was impossible to make ahything like measurements, except with the eye, butvns far as the vision extended towards the mountain we saw nothing but ruins which stretched to a great distance to right and left. Toward tho river they Beemed to melt away into the plain. Squier says that they cover an area of nearly a square league, and Middendorf estimates their extent at four square kilometers. Prom my observations, tho ruins consist of houses built of immense adobe blocks, r^oscly adjoining each other, here and there separated by streets. Some of the houses consist of .several apartments. Admission is gained through a low doorway, but nowhere is there a sign of a window. As in Pompeii, the roofs, whatever may have been the material of their construction, have long since fallen in, Outside the buildings, the soil has risen to a great height, sometimes nearly to the top of the wall, but inside the walla the depth gives an idea of the original height of perhaps 10 feet or more. Toward the mountain, a largo portion of the city is almost completely buried in the sand, which in the course of ages has come drifting down from the hills. These a.re within the city a few eleva* tions or small hills, which may have been occupied by temples or forts. Pits are. everywhere within and without the houses, with a width ol from two to four and a depth ranging from six to twenty feet or more, Human remains in the shape of skulls and bones are found within the pits or scattered over the ground, together with bitft of pottery and other articles, such as corncobs. Which were probably interred with the dead. Some of these pits are said to have curved the purposes of storehouses or granaries, while others were certainlycrave*, The inhabitants ©f the city buried their dea£ within or In the immediate vicinity of their houses, although the mass of the people must have used the necropolis, some distance away from the residences. Many of these pits, excavated In the hard soil, are in the form of a Jar or trrn. while others are square. Squier tboa describes the ruins as he saw them: "these consist of three great groups of buildon ami around ihe central mass, with streets passing between them. It would be impossible to describe this complicated mare of massive adobe wftlis^ most of them still standing, albeit m&h shattered toy earthquakes, or to convey an Idea of the pyramidal edifices, rising stage on stage, with terraces and broad flights of steps leading to their summits." He adds that the history of the place has been lost to tradition. As standing on an eminence, surrounded by the ruins, with the silence of death upon you.

Miguel Estete accompanied Hernando Piaarro fronu Caxamarca to Pachiacamac, at the time when AtahuaJpa's people were scouring the oduitry to collect sufficient gold for the- ransom ..^eftheir unfortunate elite*. He gives us tfae- itinerary of Hernando day by day until the return to Caxamarca. Wherever he goes he finds tho country thickly populated with towns and villages-, suarroimded by cultivated fields oJ maize and 'orchards, with HockJ3 of a kind of sheep. He judges that Pachacamac ia of considerable antiquity, and' he- finds within it a certain number of ruins. No mention is made of Cajamarquilla; y«* it is probable that his Journey led him tterough the valley of the Rimac. and Markham evec supposes that he passed over the present site of Lima. According to Middendorf, who inters his statement from Estete's narrative, the vaiDe-y was at that time thickly populated, having besides many smaller p l a c e s three- large towns, Huadca, mow Huatica, Armatambo, and Cajamarquilla. Huadca, he says, was the principal town of the district. Its ruins stilt exist between Lima anwi the village of Magdalena, but they seem ta be even less known than those of Cajaniarafttilla. The vaMey, together with the entire coast, was overrun and conquered by the Incas, a centur? or score- before the arrival of the Spaniards, about the time that these lords of the Peruvian uplands imposed the-frr rule on the Grand' Chimu farther north and* on Pachacamac. Though there is little or nothing; to indicate an Inca occupation at CajamarquiFIaTit is quite likely that after the conquest Its population more or less mingled with the conquerors. To judge from the names of places In the conquered districts, the victors imposed their language, no doubt gradually supplanting the original tongue of the valleys and eoastlands. Caxamarca is a Quechua name, meaning "rock, city." Caxamarquilla is the Spanish diminutive of Caxamarca. The city in the Rimac valley was thus called Little Caxamarca, to distinguish it, no doubt, from that other Caxamarca to the north, so intimately connected with the sad history of Atahualpa. Among old writers who have treated <4 the ccast people that preceded tho Incas, Don Francisco de Avlla, priest in the principal village of Huarochlrl, may be * profitably consulted. His work was translated and published by Sir Clement Markham, in the forty-eighth volume of the Hakluyt series. Unfortunately, Cajamarquilla furnishes little data to the archaeologist. It contains no inscriptions, no works of art, and its pits have been opened and searched, probably by treasure hunters, who have long since carried off any objects of taluo they may have contained. Yet the ruins aro of the greatest Interest for the beauty of their situation, their general pla#, and their adebe architecture. Cajamarquilla must rank as onb ol the finest remains of that mysterious pre-Inca civilization which existed on the coaot between the Pacific ocean anJ the mighty Andean ranges. Unlike the massive ruins on Lake Titicaca, or the oft-mentioned Pachacamac, it has attracted little attention on the part either of tourist or scientist, and its history doea »ot «xfst. Yet a careful study of its houses, with their apartments, of its streets, and of its burial places may. I think, throw Bome light on the mode of life of the primitive people that once dwelt within it. The ethnologist may also find some material in the skulls that lie scattered throughout the ruined city, or buried in its pits. As you irander through the Rimac valley and contemplate its vast solitudes and crumbling ruins, you ask yourself what has become of the population. Alas, what has become of the Indian population of the West Indies, and where are our Indians of the United States? They have melted away before Caucasian civilization. Some day a patient explorer and archaeologist may pitch his tents among the ruins of Cajamarquilla to study them in detail and force them to reveal some of their secrets. At least he may give us a plan of the city, and reconstruct It drawing some order from Its confusion. For the, present. Cajamarquilla is a mystery.

DAIRY / at E FALL FRESH COWS ARE BEST VALUE OF BLANKETING COWS Practice Adopted In Australia Found to Give Excellent Results Dur-v Ifig Cold Weather. r If Bull Is Confined and Service Controlled, Animals May Be Managed to Suit Owner's Wish. (By W. H. UNDERWOOD.) It is a well known fact that by far a. greater number of dairy cows are allowed to follow the most natural course, and either by indifference or Intention, they freshen in the spring. The producer of milk for sale, if he ha* am «5r*B trade, may want to have an even number of fresh cows in every month pf the year. If the bnll is kept confined and service controlled, this can be regulated as a rule, although unpleasant irregularities in breeding will sometimes occur and stubbornly resist correction. But, if the prime object is to produce the greatest quantity of milk of the best quality and the greatest profit with Any given number of cows with- For some years past a number of dairymen in Australia* have adopted the practice of blanketing cows dur. ing wet and cold weather. The results in every case are spoken of as being highly sattBfacjLDry. When cows are kept warm the food they con-, sume, instead of being utilized to maintain daily heat, is largely devoted to the production of milk, and in this way the dairyman realizes a large profit on the very small outlay required to provide blankets for hi3 cattle in cold weather. Men who have studied the subject clOBely say that the effect of covers on cows is very remarkable. The quiet cows become more quiet and contented, while those that are shy or nervouB have their nerves soothed, and submit of being handled without fear. This is no fad of one or two men, but has become so common that ihe manufacturers have placed several kinds of blankets as coverings on the markets, with a view of supplying the 4$rn$hd that has arisen. It is said, however, that a home-: made blagtfket, made from old wheat bags, selves the purpose as well as anything7. After they have been worn for a sltort, timer- they become thoroughly waterproof. fcifr Prize Holstein Cow. In a year, evidence is overwhelming that the cows should be managed so as to calve during the autumn months. Por like reasons, September Is the best month In most parts of the country, for a heifer to drop her first calf In order to best develop as a cow. This almost regardless of the animal at the first calving. Calves born in the fall are made easily reared and make better cows than those born in the spring and summer. It seems needless to rehearse the stock argument on the subject, based on long experience of successful dairymen, but a brief recapitulation may beuBetnl. - • •-•" The cow or heifer calving In the fall needs the most,tscaltby and tfutrltlour, pasturage ^ust'following';ti|e ."Strain while coifting into full floWv Jnst at this time, when some falling off is likely tq occur, the animal is brought to the stable and receives good care; the winter feeding and the returns from it may be depended upon to exceed the midsummer results for any like period. \ At the stage of milking and gestation, when another dropping off of the milk yield may be looked for, the fresh pastures induce a fresh cow, lengthen the milking season and increase the year's total product. I December and January are good months in which to control and supervise the service of a bull. Midsummer and the dog days are a good time for the cow to be dry and preparing to calve again. With fall-fresh cows, the greatest and richest product comes at the season when milk and butter are always comparatively high in price. , In actual practice four fall-fresh cows have been found equal to five which calved In the spring in 12 months' product and at about fourfifths the cost. SAFETY HOLDER FOR BOTTLES Authorized Person by Use of Key Can Open Lock and Remove Jar from Receptacle. In describing an invention of G. F. Darr of Manhattan, N. Y., for holding milk bottles and other receptacles, the Scientific American says: In the present invention is an improved safety holder for milk -bottles, jars and the like receptacles, intended to be attached to a suitable support and to receive and retain a, bottle against unauthorized removal. MAKE THE SKIMMER SECURE Scheme for Fastening Cream Separator to Cement Floor Tried and Found Very Satisfactory. , Here Is a scheme for fastening a cream eeparator down on a cement floor which we have tried and found very aatisfactory. Before putting in the cement floor, a three-fourths Inch bolt was threaded to the middle, then put through a hole in a small piece of scrap iron, writes Dan Belt of La Crosse, Kaflu, In the Farmer's Mail and Braeae. Tie .bolt and iron were firmly imbedded in the fresh cement, leaving the threaded end sticking out, The base of the separator Was then 'firmly bolted to two pieces of two by four, Holder for Bottles. An authorized person, by use of a key, can readily open the lock and swing the cover open for removal of the receptacle from the casing, as pictured in the perspective view of the safety holder for a milk bottle locked in position in the holder. . Profit of Cow. The milk production alone la not what measures the profit of the cow. It is the difference between the cost of feed and the returns which the milk brings.

And if they hare the Close skimming means more skimmilk left on the place. A bit more feed now that the pastures are. getting shorter. Is your bull gentle? Then get a ring in his nose before night. Draining butter well before salting will help its keeping qualities. Better a nose ring for the young bull than an accident afterward. A brush to wash dairy utensils is more sanitary than the time honored rag. A solid concrete base for the separator will lengthen the life of the ma* chine. It pays in more ways than one to be friendly with the young dairy stock.

Indeed there are pltasuren of t h e poor. Bays the Kansas City S t a r One is not so sure of the delight of "reposes from bodily toil." That phrase, a s used by De Quincey, is reminiscent of Senator Vest's story or the little negro boy who was pounding his finger with a h a m m e r and was crying from the pain. "Why do you do t h a t ? " the senator asked him, "Oh." he said, "it feels so good when I quit." Hut if the toll is not oppressive, surely the period of rest is the sweeter because of it. The pleasures of the poor include a love of good reading and leisure for it; appetites for the best <ating in the world, boiled dinn e r s ; childhood, storing m e m o r i e s of bwimmin' holes and bare feet and circuses and bumble bee fights; the treat of an occasional good play; the notmiserly exultation at money put by for a rainy day; the selfish satisfaction of self-sacrifice; the romance of youth where marriage is of helpmates, "pard ners." Oh, there are pleasures of the poor—and a country whose pioneers Knew them so well, whose newer com munities know them yet so veil, must restore them by eradicating needless unillumined poverty. BECKER IS FOUND GUILTY Many persons are worrying, <n print aud out of it, lest woman is "making a man of herself," and in her eagerness to grasp new opportunities is forgetting her immemorial privileges. But there is an equally serious cause for anxiety In man's indifference to certain of his prerogatives. He s e e m s to be forgetting the pleasures t h a t accrue to him as a parent. " P a " is no longer "onto his job." Ho h a s turned his respondibilities over to tho feminine side of the house, and is Btarvlng a profound need of his n a t u r e in so doing. There has been rather too much idealization of motherhood ar. the expense of fatherhood. Not infrequently It is the father rather than the mother who is able to attain to the vision of the family as a Bacred Institution.

No question about it, the Ameri c a n father too often is out in the cold, P e r h a p s he made the blunder In Stopping out there himself, but none the less it is the business of the women who are wise and the children who arc dutiful to see that he is brought back into h e a r t association with trie others. i There's one good thing about the dog days coming s o ' l a t e ; they are the insect-breading days The flies and mosquitoes when they begin their season early h a v e a way of s e t t i n g upon people's g a r m e n t s just before they go Indoors and of darting inside whenever screens are opened for a minute.

Y. RESULTS IN SCORE OF 18-7. YOST'S ENDS ARE SKIRTED FOR LONG AND S U B S T A N T I A L GAINS First Quarter is Ail Yost's, But Syracuse Comes Back,—Caste Makes Three Touchdowns For Syracuse Syracuse eaine back; Michigan went back, hence the doleful digits that proclaim an Orange victory in Syracuse, N. V. by a score of IS to 7; three touchdowns to one T h e vanquished team got its m a r k e r in t h e first peroid, the victors one in each succeding quarter. Syracuse, h a m m e r e d and humiliated by the teams that she had played previously, not only beaten but overwhelmed with discouraging regularity, made a supreme effurt in her tussle with the Wolverines. Displaying the sort of football that nobody dreamed was possible for the gridiron, Joe (J rims commanded by Probst and coached by Cummlngs, having nothing to lose and everything to gain, the Orange alert and dashing, thoroughly outplayed Yost's men, who gave the complete repertoire of all that is bad in the a u t u m n diversion, after 10 delicious minutes at the start, when they had the Orange on the run and all ready for a decisive licking. Orangemen Play Well. It was not so much that Syracuse won as that Michigan lost. T h e r e was some good work on the. part of the Salt. City aggregation. It is true, and nobody who saw the game would wisli to delract from the performance of an eleven that had rallied in the face of a most disheartening record, bul at the same time the Orange did not at any time show enough power, speed or versatility to score so decisive a triump uithout the aid of Michigan's horribly erratic and impotent performance.

The swiftness and efficiency of the onward movement of the a r m i e s of the allied Hainan s t a t e s is making Europe open h e r eyes. From the north and all along t h e line from Oreece on the south they are crowding back the boundaries oi the Ottoman empire in Europe. The often predicted and long delayed day when the T u r k will have his back against the wall s e e m s at hand. The two pivotal points of Turkey'? defense on t h e north were Adrianoplt and Uskup. T h e Bulgarian a r m y in the east, has defeated the T u r k s at Kirk-Kilissch, which is the strongest outpost of Adrianople, and a p p e a r s to have almost invested that fortress. Servians Enter Uskup The Servian a r m y in the west walked into Uskup without opposition. T h e Turnish garrison there withdrew on tho railway towards Saloniki. How far it i n t e n d s to r e t r e a t and why are questions. The 0111/ a n s w e r to the" last question is that garrison did not justify an a t t e m p t to m a k e a stand. T h e r e is no position between Uskup and Saloniki better suited for a battle than the one abandoned. The strategy apparently is to follow the line of the railway toward Saloniki. E v e n t s about Adrianople are even more important. T h e Bulgarians apparently are proceeding successfully with the investment of the fortress. The Turkish army which was defeated at Kirk-Kilisseh did not fall back upon Adrianople, but took t h e road to the south w h e r e it could connect with the railway to Contantinople. The second Bulgarian a r m y followed through the mountains carrying on the fighting all day in an endeavor to cut off the r e t r e a t i n g forces. May Starve Out Turks.

Sometimes the scarf is caught half way down the skirt with a second ornamental buckle matching the one used upon the waist and again it hangs freely almost to the hem of the skirt.

An embroidered dotted swiss blouse of this sort, worn with a dull blue worsted suit, had a collar and cuffs of white agarie, and the buttons down the front were of glass with turquoise enamel centers; link cuff buttons to match finished with long sleeves, says the Montreal Star.

Not that this is any new proposition, as these are just the furs every one wore or wanted to wear last winter.

The Women's Home Companion contains an impressive artlclo on grandmothers, in which the author gives the following description of her own grandmother: "A bride at fifteen; a widow with four little children at thirty; flung from wealth to poverty by the Civil war;- confronted with the necessity to earn her own and her children's living in a day when women bad Indeed cause to cry out for better op-1 portunltieB. and through it all strong, patient, serene, the unconquerable soul. "What could be braver, what could be richer, than her life? "What could there be in all human experience to surpass that young love of hers?—the love that one hears, with aching throat and blurred eyes, in the Bingle voice of some throbbing violin when the lights are low and every coarser instrument is hushed? Ah, that is the pure romance, starry, exquisite—fleeting, if you will—but oh, how sweet! "And then—motherhood. The woman of today, with a large and lovely charity, would mother the whole world. Rut she—she mothered her own. And will any woman say that to mother one's own is the lesser joy, the inferior vocation? "Then death—the death of her husband. And I think there can be no sharper test of courage, no deeper call for heroism, than the requirement to smile into one's children's faces, to make life a happy thing for them, when their father lies dead. That is a task to shake the*, heart of the etaunchest; yet she did it. "Soon afterward, the war and financial disaster; the old, old story of the southern wife and widow; the home desecrated for her by the presenco of boarders; the skillful needle put tc such Unwonted service; all the pitiful shifts of unequipped, sensitively bred poverty. These things she did too— and smiled. "And then she lost her first-born, her only son. And she smiled still, for the children who were left. "As her remaining children grew up around her, the stress lightened, There was marriage, there was birth happening about her again—renewals of life. "What would childhood be. indeed, without grandmothers? Of course w€ love our mothers and fathers best; we always assert that stoutly, b u t - well, there's something about a grandmother!" Wishing for Longer Days- Most women at home would he surprised to learn that there are quicker ways of doing ordinary things than they are used to. Hut efficiency experts who work wonders in cutting out waste motions in factories, so that hard-headed businesn men are willing to pay them big money for their services, throw up their hands in horror when they observe how women at home let the precious time slip through their fingers, and wonder where the day has gone. Among tho improvements they suggest is that women use the clock more, agreeing with themselves to get certain things done by certain times, and having certain hours free for culture, devotion and recreation. The necessity of keeping to a schedule means the invention of many short cuts, and puts something of that delightful game spirit into the most commonplace tasks. Now don't talk it over wit'h some negative-minded person who muddle? your good intentions wfth whining objections, but just go ahead and do it. If it works, then tell your neighbor. Perhaps she would like to have some spare time too.—Delineator. Effect of Pafnt on Corrosion of Iron. According to the rather surprising results obtained by two German chemists, M. Liebreich and L. Spitzer, who were experimenting with paint as a preventive of the corrosion of iron, it seems that one coat of good paint or varnish is much superior to two or more coats. In their experiments a second coat proved absolutely detrimental. The experiments consisted in painting well polished steel bars with one or more coats and suspending the bars over boiling water for four days. Half of the coating was then removed and the bared metal well covered with vaseline to prevent oxidation. In each case where only one coat of paint had been applied the bars remained as brilliant and rust free as before the test, but in the case of two or more coats, corrosion had taken place. The investigators will not commit themselves as to the explanation of this, but it may h e that a coating of seversl layers provides a lean flexible Cover; more liable to crack, thus allowing oxidizing agents to penetrate to the metal surface.

PLACE APPOINTED Mistake in Posting Letter Proves Right Thing. By HAROLD CARTER. John Brett was in the seventh heaven of happiness on Saturday morning, and there were three distinct contributing causes. First, it was Saturday, and he did not have to go to work that day; second, his new suit had come home; third; and immeasurably greater, though in a measure bound up with reason two, he had received a letter from Georgia Gaines. "Yes, I shall be In town Saturday, but only for a couple of hourB," Bhe wrote. "And then, perhaps, I Bhall answer the question you want to ask me—if you decide to ask it. I shall arrive about 10 o'clock, shall do my chopping at , shall expect you outside- " Brett skimmed the • letter hastily. Later he would read it at leisure, lingering over e a c h r l e t t e r of every word of that handwriting which al- .vay thrilled him, even before he had torn open the envelope. Ou such occasions the address—even the simple superscription, "John Brett, ESQ.," overwhelmed him with emotion. Reason two turned to gall and wormwood. The suit did not lit It did not fit approximately. It might have fitted the Living Skeleton or made a passably good garment for the Elastic Man, but it was not built for John Brett. And there was no possibility of changing it. "I'll take it to the circus—I'll give it to Marcelline, the clown/' he soliloquized, when the first burst of anger had spent itself. "No, I won't, either. I feel so fine today—here, Bill!" The janitor looked up from the yard at tho man in the window. "Here's a new suit for you," cried Brett, and fluns the garments down to him. Then, after donning his ordinary attire, with a little sigh for a lost impression, ho linished his breakfast and went downtown. "Now, whers are we to meet?" he asked himself a little later, and felt for the letter. His pockets Were empty. Suddenly tho appalling consciousness came to him that he had loft the letter in the discarded suit. He rushed back and summoned tho janitor. "I've got to have the letter "Postman," he afMf. "there* a leator- in there posted « J Mistake.. I t y addressed to John Bi^tt to a slantiM feminine hand. I want It back." "You'll have to go to the postoflo* department if you wftat jit bejore it's. delivered," the postman answered. "That'll take three days, You'tt get it tonight if you go home and sit down and cool off a little.'' "Does money talk?" inquired John, waving a ten-dollar bill Ui the air. "Well, I ain't against free speech," answered the other, taking tho bill and handing John the letter. He seized it, and then, so great was the re action, he was uuable to open it for several moments. At last he did so. Inside was a communication from an unknown man. John mado out signaturo with difficulty. Clo—Clo— CloBcflt! Then his senses reasserted themselves. It was the bill for the suit, which the tailor had enclosed in the inside pocket. And he must have loft Georgia's letter at home after all! There was no time to get it. now— not the ghost of a chance that he could return within a half hour of the time, for he know that Georgia must have made it 11:::0 or 11:15 And it was 11:25 now. He tore tho letter into a hundred piece.? ami then, very slowly, with down-hanging head, he walked down Fourteenth street. He would go home, he would write to Georgia and tell her what an ass 1 he had been—no, he would take the first train to her homo and crave, fori giveness. At the thought he swung round, nearly colliding with a young and attractive lady, and started in the direction of the terminal. But before he had gone three- stops he felt a touch on his arm and looked around. "Well, you are rude, running away from me like that!" she said petulantly.

Stalllonv Registration Board.) Never in the history of the draft Iroree has the-—future appeared___fl0_ promising to breeders~a8 now, despite t h e statements of a leading speaker at the annual meeting of the State (Veterinarians' association at Minneapolis that the automobile and autotruck were driving it out of business. There is no reason, in the light •of statistics, -why the doom of the draft horse should he spelled by the «.uto. Though the enormous number of auto-trucks in the cities might lead one to believe that they were crowding the draft horse out of business, actual flgureB do not prove it. Sta^ tiatlcs In the office of the Minnesota stallfon registration board show that t h e number of sires used in this state for horse-breeding has Increased from 3,544, May 1, 1910, to 4,445, May 1, 1912. During the same period the •number of registered draft sires has Increased 35 per cent, there now being over 1,450 In Minnesota. This is an excellent guide to conditions of the industry in this state and throughout the country. Never in the history of the Chicago and St. Liouis marknts, the two large s t ones in the United States, has the demand been so keen or the prices so high for high class horses •of all sypos, espocially the superior -draft type. Statistics from the U. S. bureau of animal industry show that the number of,horses in this country h a s increased from 13,500,000 to 21,- 600,000 in the past decade. The value of all horses in this country has increased from $45 to $115 in the same period. This has occurred despite the Increase in the use of automobiles. First class draft horses have been almost prohibitive }n price this year, because of the great demand for them, and u team of drafters has often sold ns high as $800 to $1,000. The demand for high class saddle and carriage horses in thn eastern cities has been so great that their prict:» have been almost prohibitive to many who can afford automobiles. All this- should be very encouraging to persons in the United States interested in horse-breeding. When horses have increased at so rapid n rate the last two years, and prices have kept soaring In spite of the increase, there is no reason to believe that the automobile will ever drive them out of business. Instead of the automobile -causing—a^ Jscarclty of horses, it would be more reasonable to say that the scarcity of horses has caused the temporary advent of the automobile and' auto-truck. Farmers in Minnesota need not fear to grow more horses. If they are large, sound, and serviceable, they will always demand the highest prices. The horse industry is founded on a permanent basis, and has no reason to conflict with the automobile industry In any way. KEEPING POULTRY FREE FROM LICE Recipe for Making Ointment Recommended by Prof. Graham —Also Kills Fleas. What many breeders consider be*. tor than powder for killing lice and mites is an ointment recommended by Professor W„. R. Graham of Guelph, Canada, one who has made a life study of poultry in the Dominion. It Is composed as follows: Mercury, 50 parts; lard, 25 parts; beef suet, 23 parts; oleate of mercury, 2 parts, The suet, if bought from tho butcher, will have to be rendered over a fire and poured into the lard while it is warm, and then stir in tho mercury and oleate of mercury. Use a table knife or spoon to do the stirring. Do not put hands into i t Should it prove too stiff to (iasily apply as an ointment, thin with a little cotton seed oil. All ingredients should be weighed rather than measured. Put It away in small vaseline bottles or boxes well covered, and it will keep for montha. This ointment will rid polutry of head lice and Texas fleas. For other mites and lice rub It in well about the fluff below the vent and under the wings. It will not only kill the live vermin, but destroy the nits as well. It is a valuable thing for turkey raisers to use on the old and the young. *PEKIN DUCKS ARE QUITE PROFITABLE *A ,-:S « *'V*ft fofe ' Mf market ducklings are all raised 4**ga White Pekin ducks, which have t h * range of a half acre, five ducks to *jM drake, ftiyi a writer in the Poult r y Joor&al.

THAT ORDER ARMIES OF BALKAN ALLIES, LEO BY BULGARIANS, PUSH TO W I T H I N SIGHT OF CONSTANTINOPLE. GREEKS BOLDLY SINK T U R K I S H WARSHIP. Turk Ships Bombard Lighthouses, and Bulgarians Protest Over Such Unnecessary Conduct. The Turkish army on which the fate of the Ottoman empire depends has been outgeneraled and outtought. It has made what is believed to be the last stand against the victorious UulgarimiH and is now falling b.'vck in disorder on its tinal line of defense at the forts of Tchatalja, only X5 miles from Cosntaminople. Grave doubts are expressed in military circles, and repeated even in the Turkish capital, us to whether the remnants of the immense but disorganized army of the sultan will make any serious attempt to hold this line. F o r e i g n e r s in Constantinople are fearful for the safety of the Christian populations of the Turkish towns and the European powers have taken steps in this connection by the dispatch of warships to Salonvki, Constantinople ~aird~-other Turkish ports for the protection of their nationals. This is the most pressing question of the moment. One correspondent in Constantinople voices the fear of Europeans in that city that the Turkish retreat from Tehattalja might result in massacres and pillage by vhat is no longer an army, but a mob. Old residents of Constantinople who know the Turks thoroughly and are not incliued to take an alrarnist attitude, say the foreign warships could afford some protection at Salonki, but the widely scattered missions and Christian populations in their opinion are already seriously endangered. No Time to Reorganize. T h e Bulgarian troops who have shown such dash since the opening of the campaign are not likely to give the Turks much time to reorganize It is true they have hundreds of dead and wounded, both TurkB and Bulgarians, to dispose of, and this must according to military experts, delay them somewhat. They had, however, similar difficulties to contend against after the victory at Kirk-KilisBeh and around Adrianople, but there was not much lull in the fighting then. Other parts of the line of invaders are pulling themselves together for another spring, which they hope will finally and definitely put an end to Turkish rule In Europe. Servians Do Their Part. Tho, Servians, having completed the occupation of Macedonia, are establishing civil administrations there and releasing some of their troops to go to the assistance of their allies at Adrianople and for an attack on Salouiki. On the latter place armies are converging from three directions. T h e Greeks, too are taking the offensive and, having occupied in the Aegean atr; some Turkish islands conveniently located for attacV. have put out of commission a Turkish warship stationed at Saloniki by torpedoing her during the night. She was. not of great value. Powers Must Keep Out. Nothing new has been heard from the region of Scutari except a report that the powder 'magazine in Taratosch has Lcen destroyed by Montefegriu shells. Having decided to take 'step* to protect their nationals the European. powers are now keeping in touch with a view to acting in concert when the opportune moment arrives. Bulgaria, however, has let it be known that Turkey must negotiate with the allied Balkan nations directly, so that all the powers can do ia to prepare to look after their own interests when the war is over. .ir >*- Floorwalker H*rdly Had to Think to Make Satlafactofjjr Answer to the Inquiry. "Silk stockings must be very cheap m America. Nowhere in the world do women's slim and supple ankles gleam in lustrouB silk as they do here." The speaker was Robert Lbraine, the English actor. He continued: "A married man told me the other day that, going Into one of your department stores, he said to a floorwalker: " 'I'm looking for something pretty In silk stockings/ "The floorwalker smiled, and with si gesture embraced the long rows of counters with their charming saleswomen. " 'That remark,' he said, 'describes, I believe, practlcaly every one of our young ladies.' " England's Motto. "Dieu et Mon Droit"—"God and My Right"—the royal motto of England, was the parole of the day given by Richard I. (he of the Lion Heart) to his army at the battle of Gisors, in France, on the 20th of September, 1198, when the French army was signally defeated. Dieu et JWon Droit appears to have been first assumed as a motto by Henry VI., 1422-1462. Semper Idem—"Always the Same"—was one of the mottoes of Queen Elizabeth; also adopted by Queens Mary and Anne. Situations Vacant. The rich bachelor sighed and looked fixedly at the beautiful g i r i "Things with me," he said, "are at sixes and sevens. I feel the great need of a woman In my home—one who would straighten out my tangled affairs and make life worth living once again." Her soft glance spoke her excitement and expectation. "Yes?" she queried, gently. "Do you know," he continued, "of any good, able-bodied woman whom I could get to clean the house?" Nor for Her. "He seems to be so superficial," said Mrs. Oldcastle. "Yes," replied Mrs. Gottalottftv as she hung her $15,000 necklace over the back of a chair. "I've noticed that. He's got half a dozen big ones stuffed that he claims he caught. I wouldn't have such things in my dining room." The Best She Could Do. "Why don't you want to let me hold your hand?" "What good would it do you to hold my hand?"

Sacrificing their lives to rescue 87 orphan children in their charge, six Sisters of Charity perished in a fire that destroyed St. John's Orphanage in San Antonio, Tex.

Another orphan is missing, and it is feared it did not escape. F l a m e s broke out. in the building early morning. Roused from their sleep the nuns marshalled their charges to fire escapes, remaining at their posts until flames barred the way to safety. Two of the slaters, Kostka Farrell and Monica Montez, were killed by Jumping. ______ Three sisters escapedTTnfltfucted to pilot t h e first column of frightened children out of danger, they gained the ground In time to escape tbe crash of falling walls. The children owe their lives to the initial daring and self-sacrifice of the nuns. '>; '•i tf' The average death rate for 20 states recording their deaths is 1,471 per 100,000.

Will Last Long, but Are Extremely Costly at the Present Moment— Velvet In Particular Form la Extremely Popular. There 1B always a peculiar seductiveness about a fine wrap, and now thi* charm Is more bewildering than ever, for every point of the elegant garment strives for grace and beauty. AB for textures, you can imagine how grand they are when I tell you that BO me of the more exquisite coatings for evening use are marked as high as forty dollars a yard, while such prices as twenty-five dollars and thirty dollars are as common as if every woman had her pockets lined with gold. However, the fabrics have a lifetime quality, for some are in substantial Bilks so interwoven with gold and silver threads as to suggest the absolute defiance of time. For a long period, at least, bits of such materials will endure, and when they are looked at In the yearB to come everybody will marvel at the magnificence of our time. For, of course, there must be a revulsion of feeling at last, and then we will come down to the most countrified simplicities. The present grandeurs are ascribed to the needs of the manufacturers, who, seeing no way of getting women to use more material, fcave happened upon the lucrative notion of making textures more splendid. : One of the loveliest fabrics for both levening and fine day coats Is cut velvet, which is now shown with gauge background, the texture falling as ICARE OF THE CANDLE SHADE {Lace Covers May Easily Be Arranged So That Laundering Work Will Hot Be Hard. i «•"— 1 Keep the lace covers on candle •hades separate from the lining to they can be laundered easily.

But to return to the coat of dinky cut which is so popular now, and which always offers a Bplendld idea for the top garment of a tailored suit in one fabric; for it is the difference between the coat and skirt materials which makes this model trying to most figures. The style is shown by the figure illustrated, the material being a tan wool ratine and the trimming black panne velvet As a onepiece dress of black panne is worn with this garment it Is here presented in Its most aristocratic phase, and the get-up is admirably topped by a very dashing hat of black panne and yellow and black paradise plumes. Ready made, a coat in this style can be had from fifteen dollars up. Woolly coatings in two colors, wide wale serge coating, wool cheviot, chinchilla, etc., are Bome of the practical materials. If the garment is to be made at home it can be varied as the type needs, and if the dressmaker wants a very swagger coat cut for a stout suit of corduroy or serge she could do no better than to use this model. If the coat get-up is to be for reception* purposes, and there is every chance of its-beiog a& well the only garment for the theater, have the coat of velveteen and the dres of cloth in the same color. Taupe, in that very smart shade called eclipse, would be a splendid color for It, although many rich shades of plum are equally fashionable. MARY DEAN. FUR EDGING COMING BACK LIVE STOCK HOG HOUSE IS INEXPENSIVE Han Given for Building That May Be Made Any Size Desired—Foundation of Concrete.

With our pretty round Walking skirts fur edgings are coming very much to the fore again, although it must be owned that the fur is as often as not used with thin materials as it 1B with cloth and velvet. For instance, there is a charming frock made of moussellne de Bole in two tones, the top and upper part of the skirt which reaches half way to the knees, being carried out in rich ernerald greenfwhile the rest of the skirt is In snuff-cok>red mousseline de soie with a border of skunk. ThiB is a very successful toilette, the color scheme being both original and pleasing, while the skunk lends it a special note of richness. In detail the gown is simplicity itself, the corsage Joining neatly at the throat where there is a frill ot fine lawn, while the sleeves are put into a seam just below the turn of the shoulders, and the fronts are fastened, with crystal buttons set into little bows of dark brown velvet. Soft New Porcelains. Have you seen the fascinating Danish porcelains in soft gray and white that are being shown in interesting vases, candlesticks and fruit bowls? One attractive piece that could do duty for flowers or fruit is a Danish peasant girl in her native costume, with quaint cap and sabots. Her frock la gray, her apron, cap and sabots white. She leans gracefully forward, apparently walking, and drags beside her great baskets, each fully six inches in diameter, of plaited gray and white porcelain. Besides the beauty of this vase, it permits delightful effects with short stemmed flowers, and is especially graceful as a center piece filled with purple and white grapes* or blue plums and green gages. good way in which pieces of strong ribbon about seven Inches in length and two inches in width may be utilized la the making of serviette bands to take .the place of the ordinary rings.

KEEPING EWE'S FLEECE DRY Protection of Breeding Animal From Snow is Important—Should Be Given Exercise. (By PROF. THOMAS SHAW.) The protection of breeding ewes from falling snow ia important, especially is it important when it falls in the form of rain. Winter rains and also sleet are always cold. Ifgjhoep of the open wooled breed are lon^ exposed to these, they may do them great harm. The close-woolcd breeds, as the Merinos, will be harmed much less, as the water cannot readily enter the wool which they carry. The shelter provided up to the lambing season may be of the simplest kind, providing it will protect from storm and wind. The aim should he to give breeding ewes large liberty in the winter; if the ground is bare, or even partially, it will do thera good to give thorn large liberty. They will make excursions into the fields In search of grass, and the exercise will do them much good. They should he allowed to lie in a well-bedded yard at night, or In the shed or house adjoining, as they prefer. The other necessary attentions include regular feeding, supply of salt at all times accessible, an ample supply of pure water and yards apart from those of horses and cattle. Results of Vaccination. The Kansas experiment station has received reports of the result of vaccinating 32,000 hogs against cholera. In herds infected before vaccination 70 per cent of the hogs survived. In herds not Infected before vaccination 99 per cent survived. This shows very clearly that the time to use the cholera serum is before the disease hits the herd. The losses from ewine disease this year promise to be much less than that, but there is a good deal of it scattered 5Yer The corn belt and all precautions should be taken. Serum Is available now In nearly all important swine-producing states, and those who own hogs should take ad- VanWIertnVtt.--' ; —— CLOVER MIXTURE FOR SWJNE • • * • . . • # • * - ' • i • Combination of Alslka With Either Common Red or Mammoth Glvea Good Results. <By R G. T7EATHERSTONE.) A mixture of alsike with either the common red or the mammoth clover will give more and better pasture than any one of them. The value of the pasture depends on the number of leaves rather than on the stems. The per cent, of the leaves is greater in alsike than in the medium and the medium has a larger per cent, of leaves than has the mammoth, when compared with the stem. This alsike is finer in stem, too, and renews leafy growth alter eaten down better than do the ranker clovers. It pays to sow about ten pounds of medium and five pounds of alsike to each acre. I have noticed that shoats prefer alfalfa to any of these clovers. This suggests that they would enjoy a mixture of clover including alfalfa. As it is less hardy at the start it might be well to defer sowing the alfalfa until the season of severe frost has passed. Once established, alfalfa will endure as much hardship as any of the clovers named, yet none of them will endure grazing when frozen or even when covered with frost. A little care to keep frost off until the frost haB disappeared will prolong the usefulness of the clover pasture. Delay in turning on in the spring until May will be profitable. STOCK CHUTE QUITE USEFUL Convenient Farm Implement Easily Moved by Addition of Two Discarded Mower Wheels. Perhaps every farmer has occasion to load some animal into u wagon and many of them prepare for this by building a stock chute. Frequently these chutes are built as a permanent fixture in connection with the feed lots, but they are often made so that they can be transported from ono part of the farm to another. When a chute of this kind is built heavy and strong enough to support the weight of a mature hog or a large calf it becomes a clumsy thing to move. Mr. R. J. Linbcott, owner of the Rosalpha Jerseys at Holton, Kan., has solved this problem of inconvenience in a very easy way. The wheels and axle used in making his stock' chute are Stock Chute on Wheels. parts of old machinery found on the farm, the wheels bein& taken from an old mower. The upper end of the chute is provided with two strong iron hooks, which are sharjwmed so as to engage the bottom of the wagon bed and prevent slipping after the animal starts upward. With such an arrangement there is no difficulty In building a chute of ample strength because the question of weight has relatively little importance. The chute can be hooked on behind the wagon and hauled to any part of the farm. Giving the Horse Salt. It is a mistake to deprive a horse of salt. Large lumps of rock salt should always be kept in a box in a corner of the manger, where- the horse can help himself. Lice on Horses. For lice on horses use a good louse powder generously wherevei lice appear, and blanket closely for 12 to 15 hours. This kills most of them. Repeat if necessary. strongly contrasting; shads of color.

An authority on horses says that the gray win lire the longest and that roans come next in order. Blacks, he asserts, seldom live to be over 20 and creams rarely exceed 10 or 15. It is a matter ot common observation that grays and sorrels often live to a usefdl old age. As to the alleged short terms of the other colors, there hi room for discussion. The Halterwlse Colt The young horse should be haKerwise at one year old. Several weeks before hitching or driving let him stand in the stall with an old harness on. Let him know the harmlesaness of every Jingling buckle or chafing of napping strap.' (fare htm a bit, too, to play with and discover that It has come to stay. ^ Blinds on the nervous horse are as fuel added to fire. Have the ewes in good flesh condition at mating time. Oats should be made a part of the ration of the growing colt Shoats are certainly an attractive proposition at public sales. Stick to the "golden hoof and turn farm wastes into mutton. Exposure to chill and rain Is detrimental to any ailing dumb animal. At this time of year considerable attention should be given to the mares. A windmill is a necessity on every stock farm where there is not fresh running water. Good horses and mules were never higher in American history~ftan~fHi are at the present time. ., The stables, which will soon be occupied by the live stock, should be made comfortable for them. The man who gets the cost of production down to the minimum is the man who makes the money. A blanket of fat on a horae, like charity, is a mantle that often serves to cover a multitude of defects. Experienced shepherds usually make a practice of flushing out the ewes- just before breeding time. A coat of whitewash on the Inside of the barn and other outbuildings will make them lighter and cleaner. How to feed and finish hogs for market is a science, a knowledge ot whlrft is of great value to hog raisers. Hog cholera, or disease resembling It very closely, is reported breaking out in many different parts of the country.

Prisoners Will Work At the meeting of the board of supervisors recently, a committee was appointed to establish a stone yard attachment to the county jail for short term prisoners, presumably for "tramps" so called. The Committee appointed are supervis ore, Clarence Fuller, Cohoctah; Freely Calkins, Handy arjd Albin Pfau of Iosco. The resolution uuder which they are to work runs as follows: Resolved that the committee appointed establish a stone yard, do and are hereby authorized to expend the amount they deem necessary in renting grounds, induing same and purchasing the necessary supplies etc. The idea seems to be tbat this will furnish a means to give tramps employment while doing time at the county jail and at t.he same time earn something for the county as the crushed stone could be used to make good roads. Both materials and tools will have to be furnished by tbe committee but we do not think the idea is to furnish very expensive crushing machines further than a heavy ham mer for each workman. The time of service is from six to eight hours per day. Just think how tramps will flock to Howell to get employment wheu times are dull on the road. Eight hours a day will be very attractive no doubt to those fellows who were never known to be looking for work. "MQM THE CIR •HUM?'

It carries the thrill of the automobile race track from cover to cover. Did you ever attend a big automobile race? You hear the cry "Car coming," and before you fairly realize what has happened it is pas* like a flash. In "From the Car Behind," by Eleanor M. Ingram, such a situation arises. This story also has a fine love theme running through it, and aside from interesting automobile lovers will prove a great attraction to every man, woman and chi^d who is fortunate to read it.

The entries are greater than ever before, the quality of tbe stock better, and tbe interest among farmer*, breeders and feeders keener than at any previous time It may be interesting to state tbat tbe International Live Stock Exposition, from a comparatively small beginning, twelve years ago, nas assumed such importance in the live stock world, as to render its annual occurrence an absolute necessity, not only on account ef its being tbe high court of appeal, the eoort of last resort to stockmen, but because it sete tbe stamp of approval upon those of our domesticated animals tbat are most in demand, and establishes a standard among stock that must be lived up to in order to realize for the breeder, feeder and farmer the highest price for bis produce. Tbe day of tbe inferior animal, tbe slow feeder and the tardy monej getter, is passed, and in order to succeed and obtain the oest results in tbe shortest possible time, stockmen must breed for the types set by this great international tribunal; follow its mandates, adhere to its principles, and abide by the findings of its judges, in order to breed that which is beat, reaches maturity tbe quickest, and realizes tbe highest price in the shortest time. The ordinary observer has little idea of what this Exposition is, what it teaches and what it means, It must be seen to be appreciated. It mist be studied to be understood. No more pleasant time can be spent, no more practical lessons learned, and no more valuable knowledge gained, than by attend'ng the eight days devoted to this Sbow. The stockman will gain more real, sound, solid and serviceable information by attending this Exposition than be can gain in ten times tbe period at auy other institution. At this sbow he sees the best ot every breed, bis field for comparison is immence, and his opportunities for practical instruction almost limitless, By attending this show he combines business with pleasure, knowledge with practice, and education with example. It is tbe school of rapid learning for tbe stockman, a free education tbat remains in bis bead, and carries with it the methods wherebv tbe best live stock is produced and the most money made.

Thousands of people are complaining every year that the public schools are not "making good." They cannot understand -why the great majority of boys, after reaching the sixth or seventh .grade, fail to pass their examinations, he come discouraged and drop out of school, Bays the Columbia State. The small proportionate number of graduates they regard as proving that something is radically wrong in the scheme and methods of instruction. Not for a moment do they remember 'what they are asking of the schools. If they would compare their outlay for education with the outlay for heating or lighting their homes and then compare the results, they would agree that no other investment yields returns worthy to be mentioned by the side of their investment in the public schools, yet they insist that the schools should accomplish for average boy or girl ten times what they do accomplish. The mother or father who will give to the children in the family an hour of assistance each day will have no reason jto be disappointed with the school system. If they will three times a year visit the schools and spend half an hour in them, learning at first hand what the task of the teachers is and how much tho taxpayers have asked the school system to do, they will conclude that wonders are being achieved at nominal cost and they will be convinced, moreover, that In respect to their own children they may not expect the working of miracles unless they set themselves to do faithfully what is physically beyond the powers ©f the overworked teachers. BECKER SE 10 DIE WEEK DEC. 9 EX-POLICE LIEUT. CONVICTED OF SLAYING ROSENTHAL HEARS DOOM W I T H O U T EMOTION. SHERIFF STARTS W I T H PRISONER TO SING SING. The fact that several Nebraska young women graduating from the department of agriculture at Washington into places of responsibility as seed experts, some in state universities, while naturally gratifying to their neighbors, is most significant in this, that it shows what a potent influence the government 1B exerting toward implanting the principle of intensive agriculture, says the Omaha Bee. The first steps in the process of snaking two blades of grass grow yhere but one grew before la the proper selection of seed and proper preparation of the soil. The federal government 1B doing a great work, therefore, in thus fostering this movement and co-operating in it with state educational . institutions. Together they are making tho selection of seed /or agriculture and horticulture a scifence and a business. Of course, this Opens up to young men and women lucrative fields of service, but that Is only incidental to the main purpose of improving methods of farming. Women are indignant over the statement of a German expert at Washington lately that cooking Is a lost art. In view of the cooking schools and the housewives' leagues, both so popular now, and in the way which women are earnestly trying to raise cook* ing in the eyes of their sex to a science worthy of respect and attention, the statement is rather a sweeping one. In fact, the average moderate mind takes all the broad assertions concerning the general deterioration of the world with more than a few grains of allowance for the zeal of the speaker on special occasions when broad statements seem to be In order. Faithful Wife, After Pathetic Scene in Sheriff's Office, Is in Court When Sentence Is Pronounced. Charles A. Becker, former police lieutenant, convicted of the murder of Herman Rosenthal, New York gambler, was sentenced to die in the electric chair at Sing Sing during the week of Dec. 9. Sentence was pronounced by Justice Goff. Becker was convicted on Oct. 24, of instigating the death of the gamblerinformer, who was Biain by east side gangsters. Becker took his sentence calmly. Wife Bears Blow Well. Mrs. Becker was in the court room when Justice Goff pronounced the death decree. Those sitting near the loyal and brave wife of the ex-police official thought sho would break down but she bore up with wonderful fortitude. Becker had just left his wife a few seconds before in the offices of Sheriff Harburger, where there was a pathetic scene. The condemned man gripped his wife in his powerful arms, and for a moment neither spoke. After sentence had been pasBed. Sheriff Harburger began preparations to leave with Becker for Sing Sing prison. Five deputies were ordered to accompany the condemned man. Becker asked for 10 days in which to wind up his affairs, but the sheriff refused to grant this. Attorney John W. Hurt presented a motion for a new trial, but it was overruled by the justice. Becker had Bteeled himBelf for the ordeal. His face was calm and he stood with folded arms. He betrayed no emotion. Without trembling, with lips drawn into a straight line and with eyes that gazed straight ahead he waited the worst. The four gunmen accused of doing the actual killing—Harry Horowitz, alias "Gyp the Blood;" Louis Rosenberg, alias "Lefty Louie;" "Whitey" Lewis, and "Dago Frank" Cirofici — were in no way concerned in the Tombs over the reported confession of William Shapiro, the chauffeur of the auto in which the Rosenthal assassins escaped. The sentence of Becker wiped out any lingering animosity which Mrs. Rosenthal, tho wife of the slain gambler felt. Errors in Ballots of Several Counties. From the secretary of state's office comes tho information that several counties in the state have submitted proof of election ballots in which there are errors, and which will have to be rectified before election day. A number of counties have left the socialist labor ticket, off the ballot, while others have placed the socalist party ticfcet ahead of the prohibitionist. Several counties have not yet submitted a proof of election ballot to the secretary of state and unless they hasten and send them in, there may be many more errors which will not be discovered.

Pottervllle Swept By Fire A fire, thought to*have started from a defective chimney, caused a loss of between $35,000 to $40,000, and with the exception of one store, wiped out the south side of the business section of Pottervllle, six miles northeast of Charlotte. The town has only a small chemical engine for fire protection. Towns were asked to send assistance, but on account of no water supply, apparatus could not be used. Life Sentence for Negro Ax Woman Convicted of the murder of 17 negroes, Clementine Barabet, a mulatto girl, so-called "ax woman" of a religious sect which believed that homicides would add to their glory in the next world, was sentenced in Lafayette, La. to life imprisonment. The series of murders, all commuted with en ax, had caused a panic among negroes In Louisiana. Minnesota Will Remit Millions Secretary of State Fear and State Treasurer Dahl met at the capitol of .Minnesota aB a state board for the ensuing year and decided to remit over $2,000,000 in taxes. In 1911 the board remitted a tax of $450,000 for state -capitol purposes and $490,235 normal school tax. MINISTER ADMITS CRIME Judge and Jury Weep as Minister Pleads For His Life Found guilty in Greenville, South Carolina, of havinjr had criimual relations with three little girls m, the South Carolina,Odd Fellows* home, of which he was uuperiuteudent. Rev. Thurston U. Vaughn, once prominent as a minister, was sentenced to death j in the electric chair December 20 at the state prison at Columbia. The trial was brought to a sensational close when Vaughn made a complete confession. In finding the verdict of guilty the jury only took four minutes for its deliberations and made no recommendations of mercy, for which Vaughn had pleaded with them after his confession. A motion for a new trial was overruled and sentence was passed immediately upon the former minister. Vaughn begged the jury to spare his life, not so much for his sake as for his wife and little daughter. Neither was in court, though they had been with Vaughn since the trial opened. He was formerly assistant superintendent of the First Baptist church Sunday school, one of the largest in this city. He wa sa ministerial student and frequently occupied pulpits of churches in and around Greenville. Big Increase for Postal Service For support of their postal service the people of United States, next year will pay $283,805,760. far more than .for any other branch of the government service. Estimates forwarded to the treasury department by Postmaster General Hitchcock of appropriations necessary to the operation of the post office beginning July 1. 1913, proposes a in« crease of $12,086,909 over appropriations for the current fiscal year. Nearly $10,000,000 of the increase will be required to put into effect the postal legislation enacted this year. It is estimated that $7,240,000 will be needed for the parcels post system; $1,350,000 to meet the conditions required under the new eight-hour law; $750,000 to provide for the reclassification of railway mail clerks; and $150,000 to establish the village free delivery service. $100,000,000 Battleship Launched. With her champagne-spattered bow glistening in the sunshine and a pretty girl enthusiastically shouting, "I christen thee New Yor->," the steel shell of the $10,000,000 super-dreadnaught, that is soon to be the latest "pride of the navy," slid down from the greased, ways in the Brooklyn navy yard into the East river's murky waters. At least. 100,000 persons witnessed the launching, the most notable being President Taft, who, from a private stand smiled on Miss hJsie Calder, daughter of Congressman William M. Calder, as she excitedly crashed a beribboned bottle against the battleship's steel bow. Unveil Plot of White Slavers Superintendent Thomas F. Egan of the Connecticut state police, makes the statement that the band of white slavers who on Thursday night killed Jennie Cavalieri has its headquarters in Brooklyn, N. Y. and that the band operates its traffic in Chicago and cities east, and is engaged in the transportation of tho women who fall into their toils fro:n city to city, particularly from Chicago to eastern cities. Martindale to Sue Kalamazoo Paper Republican party leaders announced that suit would be started in behalf of Secretary of State Martindale against the publishers of the Kalamzoo Gazette. That paper published an editorial on its front page October 23, which was the strongest attack ever made on any candidate in years, it is said. It iB understood that Martindale refused to allow the suit to be started at first because he fer.red that it would rebound to the detriment of the state ticket. The majority of the candidates, however, urged him to take legal action at once, regardless of the effect on them. JAMES SCHOOLCRAFT SHERMAN.

Y„ Oct, 31,—After a long illness .James Schoolcraft Sherman, vice-president of the United States, died in this city at 9:42 o'clock Wednesday night of uremic poisoning caused by Bright's disease. He had been sinking since early morning, and it was realized that death was a question only of a few hours. There was slight relief shortly after seven o'clock, caused by an apparent improvement in the condition of the kidneys, but it did not prove* real or lasting, and at best gave only temporary hope. f Temperature Jumps to 106. At nine o'clock'the patient's temperature jumped to 106. From that time his condition rapidly passed from bad to worse until the end. Mr. Sherman was unconscious when the end came, and had been *in that condition for several hours. All the members of the Immediate family were witnesses to the final Bcene. In addition to Mrs. Sherman there were in the death chamber their three sons, Sherrlll, Richard U. and Thomas H. Sherman, and their respective wives; R. M. and Sanford Sherman, brothers of Mr. Sherman, and Mrs. L. B. Moore and Mrs. H. J. Cookinham, sisters of Mr. Sherman. Born at Utlca, N. Y., O c t 24, 1855. James Schoolcraft Sherman was born in Utica, N. Y„ on October 24, 1855. His parents were Richard U. and Mary Frances Sherman, both of English descent Richard U. Sherman was a journalist by profession. He established the Utica Morning Herald and.later, when politics and public office became his principal concern, he wrote Washington letters for New York papers, in which he praised Roscoe Conkling, who lived in Utica. Vice-President Sherman attended the public schools of Utica and in 1878 was graduated from Hamilton college, which is in a suburb of that city. Two years later he was admitted to the bar and he continued to practice intil tho beginning of the year of 1907. Father Was a Democrat. —Allhjouib^ij^ajth£r_JhM„Jiem_A strong Democrat, Mr. Sherman allied himself at the age of twenty-two with the Republican party. His rise In its ranks was steady. In 1S83 he became Oneida county chairman and one year later he was elected mayor, at the age of t*vm*v.Ti»no. HP was the youngest mayor Utica ever had. xiio congressional career began in Lenient ^Justice. "But look here, Judge," protested Wllloughby, "how could I know about your regulations? I didn't see a stg* all the way over from Yarrowby to Rockville." "They's suthin' in that,* said the Judge, "so III let ye off for costs. Thutty dollars, please." "Thirty dollars?" echoed Wllloughby. "How do you figure out the costs at thirty dollars, I'd like to know?" "Why, it'll cost all o' that, mister, to bev them signs painted an' sot up," said the Judgs.—Harper's Weekly. 1S87 and lasted, with one year's exception, until he ran for vice-president with Taft in 1908. Three times he served as a chairman of state conventions, and he has been "spoken of" in connection with almost every important political post since 1900. In the house Sherman served as chairman of the committee on railways and canals, of the committee on Indian affairs and of the committee on rules, all-powerful in its influence. The part Sherman played in the national councils of the Republican party was more felt than observed, but it was always of highest importance. He was invariably consulted in the mapping out of national campaigns. Was Married in 1881. The vice-president's marriage to Miss Carrie Babcock of East Orange, N. J., granddaughter of Col. Eliaklm Sherrlll, a noted Whig leader in New York in the days of Henry Clay, took place in 1881. His children are Sherrill, a banker; Richard Hugh, a Hamilton college mathematics professor, and Thomas M., an official in one of his father's companies—all married and residents of Utica. Sherman was not long in congress before he was recognized as one of the really Influential men in the national legislature. From the beginning he was one of the most popular men in Washington, with a host of personal friends even among the Democrats. A friend of all the men powerful in his party, his appointments during his eighteen years as congressman were numerous. He was closely allied with Speaker Cannon, and once he tried to get the speakership himself—when Reed retired. A western combination prevented his election, however. Sherman stood next to Speaker Reed in his grasp of parliamentary law. Requested to Stay In Congress. When defeated for the speakership, Sherman was offered the position of secretary of the senate, but waB compelled to decline because of the urgent request of his townsmen that he continue to represent them in congress. This action of his townsmen occurred a second time, when Mc- Kinley offered to make him general appraiser of the port of New York. Mass meetings were held in Utlca and ] great gatherings sent delegates to him to beg him to remain in congress as their»representative. So he declined this place and stayed in congress. W i l l Not Affect Eleptlon. New York, Oct. 31.—The death of Vice-President Sherman will have no effect on the election. The Taft electors, in case of a Taft victory at the polls next Tuesday, will elect a vicepresident The selection will probably be made by the Republican national committee, in case the Republican ticket wins.

The toll so far paid is rapidly nearing a total of two hundred since the death of Lieutenant Selfridge, of the United States army, in September, 1908. Naturally, Bocae of these fatal accidents were to be expected after flying became a money-making spectacle in some directions. The professional aviator felt obliged to make his flights thrilling in the eyes of the spectator, and to that end he has done things of a venturesome nature for which he has paid dearly more than once. We are not concerned with this phase of the a r t Foolhardiness Is no real part of the effort to-advance human flight, even though attendant mishaps may teach useful lessons. What la of serious concern is the loss of life of those earnestly devoted to the furtherance of the science and the adaptation of the flying machine to the needs of the army and the navy in time of war. These officer students have gone into the work with that spirit of professional devotion which is of the utmost value to the promotion of helpful knowledge, and they have generally avoided those hair-raising performances which are valuable only as an asset for the showman. These calnmnlnded devotees—the term enthusiasts might be misleading—have earnestly striven to make the most out of the instruments placed in their hands, but in doing this they have made more than one fatal stumble despite their caution. The use of the aeroplane in recent military maneuvers has exacted Its doleful price, and It is time that due thought was given some of these many accidents. Strange as it may seem, the recent miBhaps which have been most suggestively illuminating have been those that were generally not fatal in their consequences, although some have exacted the lives of the participants. On March 13 at Johannlsthal, Just outside of Berlin, a flying machine driven by Schade and an aeroplane handled by Rottinger came together while in the air a short distance above the ground. The machines were instantly smashed and sent crashing to the earth. Neither of the aviators was Injured, but a passenger was hurt. Unquestionably, this collision was brought about by the mutual effect of the disturbed air ! between the two machines. The next mishap of a kindred character occurred at Doual, France, on June 19, but with disastrous results. Captain i Dubois and Lieutenant Melgnan, both of the ! army, were operating aeroplanes during a dense ! fog, and drove into each other while going at 1 high speed. Lieutenant Melgnan was killed al- '• most instantly, and Captain Dubois died In the hospital a few hours later. The machines were splintered by the collision. Here we have a counterpart of conditions which have so, often caused trouble upon the water, but conditions which may be even more frequent aloft under atmospheric circumstances of common occurrence. Of course, the gravity of a collision in the air is unfortunately Increased by the necessarily high speed at which the flying machine mmt advance In order to sustain itself la flight. On June 20, at Att-Ies-Baines, Mile. Helene Dutrieu, while aloft, fell upon two ascending monoplanes, and all three machines dropped to the ground in a heap. The two nether aviators were pretty seriously bruised, but Mile. Dutrieu was uninjured, fortunately falling upon the underlying machines and thus having the force of her drop greatly lessened. Undoubtedly, Mile. Dutrieu hit a "hole In the air," and her monoplane started earthward before she could check or control Its descent by a gliding volplane. The question is, What -caused that hole In the afrf Did the movement of the two ascending aeroplanes create the disturbance which narrowly escaped causing a serious catastrophe? This has been answered by subsequent accidents. ' Two French army officers. Lieutenants Brles and Buries, on July 6 started for Belfort, on the eastern frontier, leaving the aeronautic station at v m * Coublay, Just outside of Parte* Ideate*- ant ftrtez had the start of his associate, and was already about six hundred feet, up, when Lieutenant Burlez overtook him, passing at greater speed something like a hundred feet above. Lieutenant Burlez's machine created, BO It is said, a downward moving "hole in the air," and this s.trnck Lieutenant Briez's monoplane in such a manner as to destroy its equilibrium. Lieutehant Briez and his machine were dashed to the earth, the aviator having both legs broken and being otherwise seriously but not fatally injured. In this case the innocent cause of the accident was the movement of the aeroplane passing above at a height of a hundred feet, while Mile. Dutrieu's drop was probably brought about by the maneuvering of the two monoplanes beneath her. These accidents have brought us face to face with new problems in the art of mechanical flight—they show us that we have much to learn about the air in which we are seeking to vie with the bird. The man, In the street has a mistaken notion of what these air holes really are; ho imagines that they are areas of partial vacuum which fall to give the flying machine proper support. The hazard they present is reasonably pictured all the greater because there is no visible sign of their presence—the aircraft just suddenly starts to drop and may fall several hundred feet before the movement can be corrected, if corrected at all. If successful, the nicest Judgment is required on the part of the aviator lest he suddenly bring pressure to bear upon his planes in excess of their reserve of strength-. Collapse of this sort has happened with'dire results upon a number of occasions. But, notwithstanding these physical evidences of something wrong, still, in the stricter sense of the word, the term air hole is a misnomer, and a cavity as such does not really exist, Did you ever watch the surface agitation of a boiling pot? Well, that is substantially a duplication of Just what is going on in the air about UB. The earth acts like a great reflector of the sun's heat and starts the air boiling below here where we are and sends it upward in great columns of rising atmosphere like the movement of the boiling water in the pot. This is what the meteorologist calls "convectional disturbances" of the atmosphere, and he tells us that this state of things would not annoy the aviator if the venturesome airman would only keep aloft at a height of from four to five miles—a matter ot from 21,000 to 29,000 feet in round numbers! Georges Legagneux has recently reached the amazing height of 18,766 feet. — W e are all familiar with the old saying, ^ffihaJL., goes up must come down." In the agitated belt of air the upward rising column of warm air is replaced by a descending column of cooler air. The downward moving column is what really constitutes the so-called "boles" of the aeronaut's parlance. The layman scarcely appreciates the conditions, that are bringing about this convection or boiling motion. When the sun strikes the earth the air Is heated and rises; in the shadow of a cloud the air is cooler and descending. This tee-eawlng Is of greater or lesser magnitude, depending upon the directness of the sun's rays and the temperature ©f the air when shaded. The evenness of the aviators flight or the uniformity of his line of advance—whichever you choose to call it—is controlled by the constancy of the pressure wWch the air exerts on the under or iHting side of tltei planes as his machine' Is driven forward by Its motor. The net result is a sustaining or lifting moment, as the engineer expresses It If the approaching air. instead of moving horizontally or upward in opposition W the surface of the planes, ahould be falling, then the support of the flying machine is suddenly diminished to that extent, and the aeroplane drops. Again, if the aviator Is traveling against a stratum of wind of a definite speed and then purposely descends, reaching an air belt of lower speed or altered direction, these changes may reduce the force of the air striking the surfaces of hfat planes, and this drop in pressure may cause hia machine to fall speedily earthward. This is another proof, of course, of the Imaginary vacant places In the air. We must bear in mind that the problem of the flying machine Is quite distinct from that of the balloon. The balloon floats because it is either lighter than the air it displaces—when it rises—or remains at a fixed altitude because there is a perfect balance between its weight and that of the air which It thrusts aside. It remains aloft whether drifting with the wind or being driven by a motor. The heavier-than-air flying machine, on the other hand, is sustained in flight only so long as its movement forward arouses sufficient opposition on the part of the air to lift or tb sustain It. When the propellers cease to revolve the aeroplane startB earthward, and disaster can be avoided only by volplaning or performing a sweeping fjpiral descent. A maneuver of this sort is nothing more nor less than a modified drop. The safety of the aeroplane, therefore, when in midair, depends upon the nicebalancing of the machine and the proper equalizing of pressure upon the planes. Eddies in the air or any other disturbance which will bring the aeroplane into conflicting atmospheric belts or zones will imperil tho stability of tho ma chine and the life of tho aviator unless he be ever watchful, and there are some of these con ditlons against which Uc cannot sufficiently guard. The flying machine, In going ahead, hits tht air a succession of rapid blows, and by this causes an area of compression which is equal in the force of its reaction to the weight of the flying machine. The fact of it is, this compression actually affects a volume of air equal In weight to the air craft it sustains, and as a cubic foot of atmospheric air weighs only .08 of a pound at the freezing point, a little figuring will show how wide Is the area upon which the aviator must draw for his support. What happens then when the flying machine has moved onward and the atmosphere tries to resume its normal state? The reaction is like the release of a spring, and the air acquires a vibratory motion—greatest in a vertical direction —akin to the prolonged bobblngs of a partly water-soaked log after being hit a blow. But this is not all. We are living at the bottom of an ocean of air, and we are living In that region of the Atmosphere where It is densest. The natural tendency for the atmosphere ia to fall when not made lighter by heat and caused to rise. An aeroplane shooting through this lower belt Is substantially knocking out the foundations from beneath the atmospheric columns reaching many thousands of feet heavenward, and we have In the air a virtual duplication of our bobbing log many, many times repeated at every stage of the onward movement of the flying machine and the successive reactions of tho compressed air which has momentarily sustained that mechanical flight. Isn't It clear, then, that an aviator when passing above or below another aviator is either stumbling into air holes thus created or producing a similar condition to menace his nearby fellow? The airman advancing at the greater speed will produce the wider area of disturbance and, within any prescribed limit, the more dangerous reaction. The flying machine when aloft is in a state of decidedly delicate equilibrium, otherwise the mere flexing of wing tips would be Incapable of correcting its horizontal position. Any change of pressure at the extremity of its wings is equivalent to adding or reducing the weight at the one or the other tip, and an upsetting movement is started. It ia quite probable that even though one aeroplane may be a full hundred feet above or below another; still the greater speed of the STATE SUNDAY SCHOOL M.ETlNG • • * mm - m • i Convention In Lansing Bids Pair to Draw Large Crowd.

(He didn't really lisp It, because you can't lisp when you say four; but that's the way children are supposed to do.) "isn't tiiat fine!" (it would have bnen just as line If he'd been three, though, or five. More idiocy.) "And whose little boy are you?" "Mamma's H'l boy." "Aren't you papa's little boy, too?'* "Nope."

The child was informed, and, looking from her doll to the baby, she said: "My, but you have kept It nice.**—• National Monthly. KAKT IM'KKAI.O, N.

This Is certainly what happened In the case of Lieutenant Briez, Mile, Dutrieu and a number of others. The task set the investigators Is that of finding how wide is the region of agitation created by. a flying machine tn flight, and, with this knowledge, to prescribe the rjfcper distances which aviators must 'observe when approaching one another. Fortunately, the flying machine ts now studied in the laboratory, and recent progress in experimental aerodynamics Is doing much toward clearing the way for safe advance in the near future, but the public must be patient and it must realise that flying is full of hasards at best, and we are really scarcely much more than upon the threshhold of this wonderful science.

The fact that a room never seems quite complete for winter use until the curtains are up makes one think of those accessories almost the first of all. It is this problem that takes one on long, tiring ambles about town looking at every kind of curtain that is made and often asking for something that haB not been made or is not made any more,.... Fashions change in curtains, as in all things else. The regulation parlor lace curtain is still in use to a great extent, but it Is not so popular as it was in the days when everything was draped back or plicity is maintained. For outside appearance of the house it is preferable to have the white curtains covering the window. They may be put on rings in order to be easily pushed back, or if there is no necessity for this the hem at the top should be made wide enough to slip the small brass rod through. TMB hitter arrangement will make the curtains hang In better lines, and will save much time and labor at laundry time. The window will look much better from the outside if theBo curtains hang next the glass, the shade being inside, next the room, and for both looks and cleanliness should just escape touching the sill. When the windows are open and the curtain blowing back and forth they will not pick up so much dust and become so soiled along the lower edge.

Will the return of the pannier bring back the tournuro and looped back curtains? Wo hope not. The simple dignity of curtains hung in straight lines, whether entirely covering the windows or pushed back to the sides, haa won general favor throughout the country. It is probably (hie to the advent, of the so-called mission style of furnishing, but because of its simplicity ft lends itself to any style and period of decoration. Plain net curtains or net effects cannot bo surpassed for charm of durability. They are made with plain wide herns and simple Hattenberg or cluny edgings, or embellished with interesting medallions and insertions of various sorts. But whether these are of the most costly sort or arc the inexpensive machine-made reproductions now to be had in every good shop, the suggestion or effect of simfohtoris Fsnciss Broad brimmed hats are worn at rakish angles. • All evening gowns-are long and most of them havo extended brims. The most brilliant shades are fancied for stockings, and shoes have almost invariably the fancy tops. The train may form an integral part of the gown or it may hang a separate appendage from the waist liae. There is a great fancy at the preaent time to show the ankle in the opening of the buttoned part. This is the outcome of the rage for colored hose. —A charming diagonal effect -hr by a jabot of lace starting at one side of the waist line and falling down the entire length of the skirt and carried out upon the train. Chameleon gowns for women, changing color with the intensity of the light, ure predicted by Dr. Giacomo Ciamician of Bologna, addressing the eighth international congress of applied chemistry, recently in session at the College of the City of New York. "Photographic substances," said Doctor Ctamician, "which often assume very intense colors in the light and return in the darkness to their primitive colors, may well attract the attention of fashion. The dress of a woman BO prepared would change color according to the intensity of the light. Passing from darkness to light, the colors would brighten, thus conforming automatically to the environment, the last word of fashion for the future." Another of Doctor Ciamician's suggestions wati that the world prepare to UBO the daily solar energy, equal to 6,000,000,000 tons of coal, instead of the mere 1,000,000,000 tons of real coal which is mined per year. "Out of the arid lands there will cipring up Industrial colonies without smoke and without smokestacks," he said, picturing what wtll happen when uli the coal Is gone; "forests of glass tubes will extend over the plains and glasB buildings will rise everywhere. Inside these will take place the photo-chemical processes that hitherto have been the guarded secrets of the planets, but that will have been mastered by human industry*- 1-^° and civilization will continue as long as the sun shines. If our black and nervous civilization, based on coal, shall be followed by a quieter civilization of solar energy, that will not be harmful to progress and to human happiness." To Freshen Veils. To freshen veils or faded silk scarfs, let them lie for awhile in gasoline into which has been mixed a small portion of oil paint of the desired shade. To renew slimsy lace or mesh veils, dissolve two teaspconfuls of mucilage in two of hot water. Pin the veil to a cloth, exactly as a cur- ' tain is stretched, and apply thir, liquid with a flat paste brush, or small paint , brush, and leave until dry. The partition or "wall" of such a room is generally not high enough for the average bureau or dresser with its swivel mirror; no old-fashioned bureau without a mirror is high enough for a chiffonier. And so a small one is generally placed against this wall. This takes up a. lot of space, sticking out into the already small room. This can be avoided if, when the room is done off, instead of cutting MAKING THE BEST OF ROOM With a Little Care and Arrangement Much Extra Space In Attic May Be Contrived. There are thousands of thousands of homes where attic rooms are "done off," and in almost erery instance a lot of space is wasted This can be overcome in most cases. Majria&'a room in a top floor or "attic" is generally done by paneling or plastering the walls, and where the roof slopes down to the floor, or almost to the floor, a large place is cut oft by building * short partition down from the roof to the floor.

The bottom drawer would be deep and wide and the other three or four drawers would taper up, the top' one being quite narrow as the roof is sloping toward this ihort partition all the time. With two such* built-ra bureaus or sets of drawers the entire floor space of the room remains for the bed, chairs and table, and yet there are plenty of drawers handy.

Caldron Custatds—At several of the shops there are little individual custard dishes made in the shape of the witches' caldron. These are in a brilliant yellow, but if It is impossible to get them the usual round dishes will do. Fill the little dishes with a nice baked custard mixture, bake them until brown and put them on the ice. Serve the custards in the ramekins, placed in a circle on a large round dish. In the center cf the ring stand up a hickory nut doll, dressed as a witch in crinkled tissue paper. Punch—To every quart of sweet apple cider add a bottle of club soda. Have ready some thinly sliced tart apples and Borne sprigs of fresh mint. Bruise the mint leaves, allowing a little sprig for each glass. Several of the apple slices must also be put into each glass, and the punch may contain much sugar and a little lemon juice, if liked. Mar8hmallow Ghosts—Toast a lot of marahmallow drops and, while each one is piping hot, drop it onto a little round, crisp ginger snap.

Enterprising. In a section of Wat ington, says Harper's Magazine, where there are a number of restaurants, one enterprising concern has displayed in great illuminating letters, "Open all Night." Next to It was a restaurant bearing with equal prominence the legend: "We Never Close."

Frank H. Hitchcock, the postmaster general of the United States, takes the deepest interest in even the smallest details of the postal service. One evening he was at the Union station in Washington, when he decided to go into one of the railway mail service cars to see how the mail matter was being handled. Being a tall man and very athletic, he easily swung himself from tho platform into the car, but be did not find it an easy matter to stay put. A burly postal clerk grabbed him by the shoulders, propelled him toward the side door, and practically ejected him to the platform below. "What do you mean by that?" asked Hitchcock indignantly. "I mean to keep you out of this car," replied the clerk roughly. "That fellow Hitchcock has given us strict orders to keep all strangers out of these cars."—Popular Magazine. Rye Pancakes.

A great deal of our stomach and bowel troubles come from eating too much starchy and greasy food. The stomach doe3 not digest any of the Btarchy food we eat—white bread, pastry, potatoes, oats, etc.— these things ^ro digested in the small intestine's, and if we eat too much, as most of us do, the organs that should digest this kind of food are overcome by excess of work, so that fermentation, indigestion, and a long train of ails result Too much fat also is hard to digest and this is changed into acids, sour stomach, belching gas, and a bloated, heavy feeling. In these conditions a change from indigestible foods to Grape-Nuts will work wonders In not only relieving the distress but in building up a strong digestion, clear brain and steady nerves. A Wash, woman writes: "About five years ago I suffered know now, from overeating starchy and greasy food. "I doctored for two years without any benefit. The doctor told me there was no cure for me. I could not eat anything without suffering severe pain in my back and sides, and I became discouraged.

PATOITSSaE^H BARN CLEANING MADE EASY 1 itter Carrier Is One of Greatest Labor 8aving Devices That Can Be Installed on Farm. The illustration represents the greatest labor saving device on this farm. The "dump" is 90 feet from the barn. At the dump we took a scoop scraper and scraped a pit 2½ by 3 feet deep in the center, rising to nothing at the edges, writes W. I. Raymond of St. Charles, la., in the Missouri Valley Farmer. This is as large as the manure pile is expected to be. This pit is iu clay soil and was smoothed and puddled until it is water tight, thus preventing any leakage of the liquid manure. There is 200 feet of track going along all gutters and into ail the box stalls through gates which open for that purpose and the litter carrier goes around Litter Carrier. corners on switches which work pei"- fectly. We have cleaned the entire barn, which shelters 32 head of dairy cattle, in 39 minutes, doing a good clean job and not hurrying, and the manure iB carried where it is not rotting your barn, fouling the air or making your yard muddy or filthy. Small boys enjoy cleaning the barn with this device. The loaded car is pushed to the door and given a vigorous shove. This sends it to the dump, where it trips automatically, dumps, and returns again. The cost ia not prohibitive, and there should be more of them in use. FEED QUESTION IS BIG ONE Possible for Dairy Farmer to Grow Balanced Rations—His Salvation Depends on Point. Molasses is used in many instances to diBguise very low-grade materials, including weed seeds. Farmers should buy the molasses and make their own mixtures. The feed question is a big one with dairy farmers, but it is not a serious problem to those who have their barns filled with good alfalfa hay, which can be grown successfully in every county in New Jersey, and which, on the average, would not cost ?10 a ton. I am Btrongly opposed to the purchase of low-grade feeds, unless the price is In proportion, which, unfortunately, is not now the case, as on the average feeds carrying from 5 to 12 per cent protein, and a high percentage of crude fiber, cost per ton practically the same as feed* which carry from 15 to 40 per cent protein, with a correspondingly high rate of digestibility and low percentage of crude fiber. You could do no better than to make a strong drive for high-grade protein feeds, more especially for use in tho dairy, and also for the larger growth and use of legumeB by dairy farmers. It is possible for the dairy farmer to grow balanced rations, or at least to get along with a very small purchase of feeds, says a writer in an exchange. The salvation of the dairy farmer depends largely upon this point. SECURE COMFORT IN MILKING To Prevent Cow From Switching Dirty, Wet Tall In One's Face Simple Device Is Arranged. In order to avoid the discomfort that comes from having a cow switch her dirty, wet tail in one's face when milking, a simple device like the one shown may be put in use, says the Iowa Homestead. Take a piece of heavy cord and after making a loop in each end attach one to the joist Cow's Tail Securely Held. at A and loop the other around the tall. When milking one end can be hooked over a nail or hook at B which wflbpuU the tail above harm's way. When hooked on nail or hook at A the oord should be Just long enough to hold the cow's tail out of the filth of the gutter.. Qtve Hens Freedom. The hens should have freedom, If I possible TO PROPERLY frACK BUTTER Farmer's Wifs or Daughter Should Study Wants of Customer! and Give What Is Desired. <By W. K. UNDERWOOD.) When a farmer's wife or daughter has a sufficient quantity of milk to be able to sell some butter, she ought by all means to find out just what sort of butter people will pay the highest price for and how the same is packed for Bale, and comply with these conditions. If they do so they will get all it is worth. On a Saturday not long since while I was waiting in the store several persons brought in butter, and with the exception of that from two customers (myself and one other), it was all made in large rolls, small rolls packed in jars, crocks and pans. Some was made in round prints and wrapped In oil paper, and some of the large rolls were also wrapped in oil paper. The clerk weighed a basket of eightpound prints, and they tipped the scaleB at six and oue-lialf pounds only. I asked him what he paid and he said 18 cents. I tasted the butter. It was good and the merchant would have been glad to pay 25 cents, tho same as I got, but he said he could not sell it for more than 18 cents because it had a mussy-looklng appearance. If each one of those people would pay $1.25 for a brick-shaped mold that will make an extra pound; 50 cents for a roll of parchment paper seven and one-half inches wide, tear the paper with the aid of a ruler into sheets ten and one-half inches long, dip these into cold water and wrap each pound neatly, pack them neatly in a clean box lined with white paper, I assure you that they can then get 25 cents per pound for their butter and the gain in price will give them a good many dollars to put into their pockets. It will ndt take ten minutes longer on churning day to do this, and the knowledge of putting a first-class article on the market in first-class condition will repay in itself. It is not best to use the oiled paper. It is impossible to handle the butter without tearing it and it makes the butter look any way but well. PRETTY LAMP SHADES BOTTLE SIPHON FOR LIQUIDS Handy for Use When Desirable to Remove Milk From Bottom Without Disturbing the Cream. For the separating of liquids of different gravities, a Connecticut man has designed the apparatus Hhown herewith.

But supposing it was desirable to remove milk from the bottom of a bottle without disturbing tho cream at the top.

In this tube are the long end of the siphon and a plunger for creating a pressure in the bottle to start the flow through the siphon. The long arm of the siphon can be thrust down to the bottom of the bottle and the liquid at the bottom can be drained off without disturbing that at the top. DATOYMOm Good pasture lands are the basis of successful dairy farming. To make dairying a success we must make it of interest to the boys. Get your cows started right for the coming cold weather and they will do well in winter. Summer or winter, a good dairy thermometer pays its way wherever dairy cows are kept. Give the cows a chance to get under the abed every night uo*. If-too-coMkeep them In the stable. Keeping the cows comfortable la a neglected point in the management of the herd during the fall months. The best cows are never cheap, and are seldom for sale; so it pays to give the heifer calves the best of care. The milk pall should *be the main consideratlpn, but not the sole one in judging the value of the dairy cow. Green fodder at the tail end of the summer is relished by the cow as ice cream is relished by the school children. The price of dairy animals is steadily rising, and the demand for good, young dairy cows is greater than the. •apply.

The soft Bilks of whiyjh they are made muHt be of the same tone, when not precisely of the exact shade, at> the room's color scheme. This silk, shallowly fluted, is fitted about the .oundation of ttiiubt wire in a rounded or distinctly pointed oblong. None of the shades are perfect circles, and in this respect their shapes differ radically from those formerly fashionable. Another marked difference iB that the top opening is not materially narrower than is the bottom opening. Consequently, the shade has a rather tall appearance, sometimes oddly at variance with the base of the lamp which it surmounts. On these uew shades there are no frills or ballet dancer skirt effects. Their outlines arc kept sharp and distinctive, and although they are trimmed with garlands of tiny MowerB and foliage in Hilk, these garnishings are placed about the center of the shade while the top and bottom edges are finished with the narrowest of headings. These finishings, attached with the utmost neatness and regularity, consist of. the dissected necklaces in composition or glass or coral, which cost only a small sum and may be obtained in any of the shadeB needed for one of these Empirn shades, as they, are called in Paris. Another way of making the rounded or distinctly pointed oblong shade is to stamp upon the plain silk a fine design in (Grecian pattern, and then embroider it with the tiniest of crystal beads in the same (one as the covering material, which, of course, is not liuted. The light of the lamp shining through th^ne beads gives them a charming radiance like unto jewels, and the design stands out in amazing relief. A shade thus embroidered should have its edges finished with the finest of silk cordage, and if this cannot, he obtained in a tone accurately matching the silk, white cordage should be specially dyed for the purpose, for the idea ia to make the beading on the center of (he article the chief attraction. Therefore, no other del ail must he prominent . Turnip Charlotte. Cook slices of carrot and turnips one-fourth of an inch thick until tender, drain and use them to line a buttered charlotte mold. Hoil white turnipH until tender; drain and press through a lino sieve. To one cup of puree add one-fourth of a teaspoon salt, a dash of white pepper, a grating of nutmeg, one-fourth of a cup of thick cream and, lastly, the stiff beaten whites of three eggs. Hake in the decorated mold, standing in a pan of hot water until the center becomes firm. Turn from the mold and serve with white sauce. vx^apioca Custard Pudding. One-half cup of pearl tapioca soaked over night in plenty of cold water. Next day throw off all the water, add one pint of milk, two eggs beaten, two even tablespoons of sugar, very little nutmeg, one-half Veuspoon salt, one evon tablespoon of butter. Bake slowly, so the custard will not boil. If it should boil it will be watery. Rice custard pudding is made the same, by omitting the tapioca and putting in three-quarters cup of boiled rice. Banana Cake. Three eggs, two cups sugar, one cup milk, two tablespoons butter (scant), one teaspoon soda (even), two teaspoons cream of tartar, essence of lemon, three even cups flour. Bake in four layers. Banana Pilling.—Mash three, or four bananas with a fork, juice of one lemon, two-thirdR cup sugar, one egg. Boll until thick, stir all the time. Spread between layers. Sprinkle confectioner's sugar on top. Finger Cakes. Beat four eggs very light; add two teaspoons of vanilla extract and two cups of granulated sugar. Stir in two cups of flour, sifted with three teaspoons of baking powder and a teaspoon of salt. Then add flour to make, a stiff dough. Roll into a thin sheet, sprinkle with sugar, cut out with a "finger" cutter and bake in a quick, oven. This amount, makes about forty little cakes, which are excellent with fruit or ice cream. . -To Freshen Carpet.

Never before have national, state and county committees used newspaper advertising space so lavishly as in the campaign just over. Did they do this, think you, for any desire to throw their money away or because they had any especial affection for the newspaper fraternity? Not by a long shot. They knew it to be the cheapest and most effectual way to reach the voters and to bring before them the facts they wanted emphasized. And so the business tising the best way to bring store news to the community he hopes to serve.

The ailment is most prevalent on farms, and children are most frequently its victims because their skins are more tender and easily pierced. Another reason why we should continue to swat the fly. The coming of the electric light and the auto has entirely revoluionized more than one industry. A few years ago when kerosene was largely used for household purposes, gasoline was simply a bi-product and was sold very cheap, as it was almost useless. Now the case is absolutly reversed and the demand for gasoline makes kerosene the bi-prod net and the price of the commodities is reversed.

There aro very, very tew persons in •all this wide world who do not need "comfort and Inspiration" at different periods or their lives. Just as the .young organist, alone In bis blindness. *roped in bis uncertain way for encouragement which no one thought <>t giving him, so, too. we who la ibor la our temporal blindness 'not only hope for, but really need the JdBdly word of cheer to help us through the burdens of our days, says the Charleston News and Courier The men who administer largo affairs, the men who are vitally con >ceraed with the shaping of public issues and the men who hold positions of high trust need encourageizneiat throughout all their lives, and rlt is the word of encouragement spok- *m at Just the right time, when perhaps a weighty decision hangs in the fbalance, or a new responsibility la to !be undertaken, which helps more than anything else could. If the men who ^control in large affairs require praise land encouragement how much more do the men who work under them ilong for the word of approbation. The earnest man, the man who takes an iactlve Interest In his task and can see beyond tho dollars and cents for which the works, cannot be expected to labor indefinitely without knowing "whether his labors are appreciated or not. It is argued, of course, that the juan who does not give satisfaction •does not, naturally, retain his position, but to many finely tempered natures the fact of giving satisfaction Is Snot everything. Appreciation means icruch to them und when rightly expressed goes a long way toward encouraging their best efforts. ; POPULAR AND ELECTORAL VOTE FOR PRESIDENT According to tho Scientific American of recent issue, a method of economizing electrical energy employed for domestic heating or cooking Is to receive the energy continuously at a low rate in a resistance apparatus which transforms It into heat and then stores the heat for uso as needed. In a new electric cooking apparatus op- •erating In this way the heating unit, consuming COO watts total or 12,000 'watt hours per day of twenty-four .hours, serves to keep a mass of cast Iron hot enough to cook food In or dinary utensils placed in contact with i t Tho cast Iron block Is thermally Insulated by being Inclosed In a sur- Trbundlng wall of lampblack or powdered silica, nnd a movable block is arranged to be raised abovo the main mass, so as to expose its upper surface when cooking is to be done. The •email current consumption, less, than that of an electric flatiron, enables the device to be operated on tho ordinary Electric light wiring of tho house. < The dangers of submarine navigation, in the present stage of Its development, are greater than those of the .aeroplane. In an aeroplane accident the deaths are limited to one or two. lout when a submarine boat goes down and tails to come up, the calamity tususlly carries off a dozen or more ihuman beings at a time. There were 15 men on the British submarine B-2, which was struck by the Hamburg- American liner Amerlka in a fog off 'Dover, and only one of then came us. This U the sixth disaster to Brit- |lsh submarines, and in each of the [previous disasters the death roll rra nged from 11 to 25. A western railroad will order that discharges may be the result of domestic troubles among the employes, arguing that such troubles cause a worry strain and often loss of necessary sleep. From now on every employe who wants to keep his job must fcave a happy home. Even the millennium seems possible in view of itills mandatory domestio happiness rrho employes, however, may delicately »;-^est that a perceptible increase is |)... may go far toward promoting Ki..o desirable happy peace of mind. / — An Italian Judge has been called upon to decide whether poker is scientific or a game of chance.

After that, they held, and the game kbecame a, punting duel in which Thomson bad the best of Ferguson, who did the kicking for the westerners.

There is a higher duty than to build almshouses for the poor, and tnat is to save men from being degraded to the, blighting influence of an almshouse.

He has a right to the aids and encouragements and culture, by which he may fulfill the destiny of a man, and until society is brought to recognize and reverence this it will continue to groan under its present miseries.—Chaining.

The Turks are reported to have been decisively beaten by the Bulgarians and driven in disorder from their positions at the Tehatalja forts in front of Constantinople according to a dispatch from Sofia. The fighting was very severe and lasted two days. The Turns are reported to have evacuated Salonlki, leaving the city at the mercy of the arriving Greek and Servian armies. The advance guards of Crown r/rince Constantin's Greek array and King Pater's Servian army are within a few miles of Saloniki. The Turks fled eastward in the direction of Constantinople along the southern border of the Orient railway, burning all bridges behind them and tearing up the railroad to prevent transporting soldiers. An Important victory was won by Greeks at Pendingciala pass. When day dawned the Turks had withdrawn from their fortress leaving many dead and wounded. The Greeks had shelled the tort all day, almost destroying it. The Greeks are now in possession of the pass. Gen. Savoff, the Bulgarian commander- in-chief, reports that after the battle of Kirk-Ktlisseh, a Turkish officer was captured bearing a letter from his commander, Mahmoud Mukhtar, to his father, the grand vizier, advising him to resign in favor of Klamil Fasha and conclude peace, as the condition of the army was so desperate that it was useless to continue the war. European Fleet Going to Turkish Waters. The fleet which the European nations are assembling in Turksh waters will comprise 14 battleships, 22 cruisers, 15 destroyers and auxiliaries. Admiral Sir Archibald Berkeley Milne, commander-in-chef of the Mediterranean squadron, will be the senior officer of this international fleet and is expected to take command, should concerted operations become necessary. The British government, a week ago ordered a strong squadron for a cruise iu the Mediterranean. Hence Admiral Milne will go Into Turksh waters with the most powerful battle force which has ever ilown the British flag east, ot Gibraltar. $40,000 Taken by T r a i n Robbers.

WESTERN CANADA'S PROSPERITY y - *< NOT A BOOM, BUt OU€ TO NATURAL DEVELOPMENT. One of the largest banks in Holland has been doing a big business k* WeBtern Canada, and Mr. W. Westerman, the President, on a recent visit into the Provinces of Manitoba. Saskatchewan and Alberta, , ^expressed himself as being much Impressed with present conditions and prospects, and was convinced that the great prosperity of the Dominion waa BOW- a boom, but merely the outcome of nat ural developments. Not enly has money been invested largely in Western Canada by the Holland Banks, but by thoBe of Germany, France, as well as Great Britain. Not only are these countries contributing money, but they are also contributing people, hard headed, industrious farmers, who are helping to produce the two hundred million bushels of wheat and the three hundred million bushels of the other small grains that the Provinces of the West have harvested this season. During the past fiscal year there came into Canada from the United States 133,710; from Austria Hungary 21,651; from Belgium 1,601; Holland 1,077; France 2,094; Germany 4,684; Sweden 2,394; Norway 1,692; and from all countries the immigration to Canada in that year was 354,237 From the United States and foreign countries the figures will be increased during the present year. Most of these people have gone ta the farms, and it is no far look to the time when the prophecy will be fulfilled of half a billion bushel crop of wheat in Western Canada. Advertise* ment.

The total of the Republican elec* Oral column apparently was fixed at the 12 votes of Idaho, Utah and Vermont, but the footing of the Wilson and Roosevelt columns flickered alternately during the afternoon and bright, as late returns from Iowa, Kan- «*aa> Minnesota, South Dakota and Wyoming gave indications of change £som the results accepted last night. On the basis of the latest returns earl? (n the evening with the vote of Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, South Da- Ifota and Wyoming placed in the 'Ndoobfeftri'* column, President-elect Wilson had 387 certain votes in the electors college; Colonel Roosevelt 89 and President Taft 12. All of the doubtful states except South Dakota gave more or less certain indication during the night of landing in the list of Wilson electoral votes, while South Dakota's returns showed a general trend toward a ?iooseveU plurality. 1 Taft Tanes Defeat Like True Philosopher. President Taft, who returned to Citcinnati, received the returns at the home of his brother, C. P. Taft, on Pike street. Early ia the evening a large nu:n- • -ioual friends gathered at the Taft homo to hear, with the president, the result of the balloting throughout the ccuntry. The very first resu.ts carried an intimation of t^e approach of the Wilson avalanc; e. While the president's personal friends w.jre entirely dsappointed over the evi! portent o* the news, the president hin self did not in the least display any depression of spirts. He ti>ok the result in a very philosophical manner. He declined to make any statement. Early returns indicated that he l*et h{s home city to Wilson. The Democrats claim to have carried Cincinnati for 'heir national, state ^nd county tickets by more than 10,000. Women Win In Four States. A by-phase of the general election thai became known Wednesday was the success of woman's suffrage in four of the five states where conetfUrMonal amendments were submitted so the people. The victory of the women was complete in Kansas, Ari- Rona and Michigan; late returns from Oregon Indicated they had succeeded ifrej*s ateo, while from Wisconsin came Tetoraa Showing the decisive defeat of ttie oqoal suffrage proposal, Eettnaftes of the popular vote polled by Governor Wilson ranged through many minions during the day. It was found impossible to •compote with any accuracy the popular voifc of any of the presidential candidates, and will be a number of days until the counting of the three corner- <*I contest in the different states is coaohuted and an accurate tabulation of the popular vote made possible. Roth bouses of congresB will prnb- • My be Democratic. The house is owrwkefcrakigly Democratic. The incomplete returns indicate that the leg- Idlatoses elected at yesterday's polls win elect enough Democratic senators 1O give Che Democrats a majority of the uppet branch of congress With no complete figures fioro «vesir. rn states, the returns show that the "solifl south," adhering to its Democratic traditions, and the eastern states !n which Wilson has won, has Riven hhn more than the requisite 266 votes in the electoral college. At mi--night, the returns showed tiiat 15 southern states, exclusive of Missouri, and inclusive of West \tr- Sh.fcC have yielded 165 electoral votes for Wilson. Three New England states, Connecticut, Mafne and Massachusetts, have given him 31 more electoral votis; Delaware has contributed three and New York has given the Domoerat'c candidate its 45 votes. Indiana has apparently gono Democ atic !*y a lar^e plurality white* Missouri, that appeared in the Republican ranks in 1904 and 1908, baa given its electoral votes to the Democrats Counting only states from which practically complete returns, though, unofficial, woro given at midnight, Wilson has 277 electoral votes, with :266 sufficient to elect Roosevelt has apparently carried Illinois with its 29 electoral votes, while on the face of the incomplete returns Taft has sw«.ng Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Vermont with 12 electoral votes. In IMS Taft carried Illinois by Ohio to Wilson. Right up with the head of the ticket, the Democratic candidates fcr governor and other state offices a»e keeping step. The plurality of Janus Cox, Democrat, for governor, will t e equal to that for the presidential jand> .ate. The Democrats will also cr-n trol the legislature by an overwhelming majority. There is no senator to be elected, but t is possible ti:at Senator Burton will be the only Republican from Thio in either brancn of congress after next March. It looks as if V.e Democrats had carr.ed every uongiessional district in'tbe state Congressman Nicholas Lorgworth, Bon-in-la.v of the Big Bull Moose, has probably pone down with the rest of the Republican candidates for coag r>S8. Wilson in the Leao In Illinois. Late returns which included maiy Democratic counties in the southern part of the state, took away the Roosevelt plurality of the early :otvrns and gave Wilson a sVisht l^ad. His total on 692 precincts heard from being 14 votes more than Roosevelt. The returns on 692 prectacts outride of Cook county give Taft 42,297, Wilson 63,857, Roosevelt 63,843. In Cook county Roosevelt still had a lead of approximately 15.000. Nino hundred seventy-eight precincts out of 19S gave Roosevelt U 3,650, Wilson 88,358, Taft, 5Q,4"8. Connecticut Goes Democratic.

Baidv n is expected to carry the entire Democratic suite ticket wth it. Roosevelt Ahead in Kansas. Meager returns at midnight indicated the Progressive natioral ti.'k^t and the Republican state ticket hid been victorious in Kansas. Progressive leaders claimed the state for Roosevelt by a plurality of from 10,000 to 1,500, but *re Democrats maintainor* tli;;t the complete vote would place Wilson in the lead. W. R. StuWia, Republican, was leading William fT. Thompson, Democrat, for United States senator. For governor, Arthur Capper, Republican, and Georpe HodgeB, Democrat, were runring about even. Wilson Ahead In New Hampshire. Although President Taft had a s«>od lead by the early returns in New Hamsi ire, tne margin was wiped out !utpr and at midnight Governor Wilson v. ar. more than 100 votes ahead Returns f»om 80 towns and wards out of 2t)0 gave Taft 6,603, Wilson 6,742 Roo-.ovr't 3,358.

Llndquist is a winner in the eleventh, but in the t w e l f t n there is the Beet Joe" has pulled through victor In another t lugh battle. The early, returns are as a rule only on president and governor, though fragmentary returns on the suffrage amendment indicate that the vote en that proposition is wtry evenly divided. * The returns on congressmen are very scattering. For congressman-st~ large what figures are at hand show Keliey and Frensdorf running neck and! neck, with H i l l , the Bull Moose candidate, third. In the second district Beakes, Dem., leads Wedemeyer, tne present Re* publican incumbent. In the third the election of Carney, Dem., over J. M. C. SmLh Is fn» dicated. In the flifth Edwin F. Sweet, preoent Democratic congressman, la being given a hard race by Carl E. Mapes, Republican. There is a possibility that Sam W. Smith, Rep., has been defeated In the sixth by Alva M. Cummins, Democrat, and In the seventh Cramton, Bell and Sherman are all closely bunched. In the eighth, as was anticipated .Chancer, t h i Progressive. pt>llc4 enough votes away from Fordney to bring Pureed, Democrat, close up and it will take the full returns of the district to show whether or not "81 gar Bee Joe" has pulled hrough victor in another tuugh battle. Sears, Progressive, failed to make the snowing expected of him in the ninth, and McLaughlin has probably won. Too few returns are In from the tenth, the biggest district in the state. to venture a prediction as to whether Loud i a i been re-elected, or defeat** by Roy Woodruff, his Progressive opponent. Llndquist is a winner in the eelventh, but In the twelfth there Is the strongest kind of a probability, based on incomplete returns, that H. OIJr» Young will be succeeded in the next congress by W. J. McDonald, the Bulk Moose candidate. One feature of the returns is the way the Bull Moote ticket ran In t h s upper peninsula. The vote cast in the state was the heaviest ever k n r w n , practically the entire registration going to the polls to vote. The three-sided contest for all offices was, of couroe, largely responsible for this, while good weather and the general closlnj of factories In all cities helped greatly. In general the Democrats held their norrral vote, and In many casts increased it, while the Republicans and Progressives combined polled t»r more than the normal Republican vote. loiter roturns from the state show practically 110 chimin in the reunits announced W«:dneBday. The plurality of W. N. Ferris, Democrat, for governor, with about half the <i«- tires in, is 17,000, which will probably Increase to 25,000 on the full count. RooHevelt's plurality over Wilson will be well over 40,000, with Taft. about, 12,000 behind the Democratic candidate. *v Sufficient, returns are now in on the legislature to aasurn the re-election of William Alden Smith to succeed himself as United Slates senator next January. With two senatorial districts to hear from, the senate stands: Republicans, 20; Democrat*?, G; Progressives, 4, With five representative? districts yet to report, the count on the lower house is: Republicans, GO; Democrats 32', Progressives, 115. This liguroB out the vote on joint ballot thus: Republicans, 70; Democrats, 38; Progressives, 17; 07 being a majority. One of the surprises of the leglnlatlve election is in the Thirty-first senatorial district, where "Mike" Moriarty is having the race of his life for re-election, he and Wlnegar, the Progressive candidate, running neckand- ncck. In the congressional contests there are some close races which ' i y take the official count to decide. In the second W. W. Wedemeyer seems to be defeated by 8. W. Beakes, Democrat, the figures at hand nearly coinformer Congressman William H. SUf forc\ who rrn as a fusion candidate on the DeiLOC-atic ticket. 8outh Dakota In Doubt.

Uncle Sam Wants Farmers Uncle Sam v^nts five hundred men to take up homes on the irrigation projects he has been building in the West. More than 800, 000 acres are receiving water from the government ditches' and late reports from the field indicate that bumper crops have rewarded the farmer iu practically all sections of the irrigated West. The crop yields on the projects of the Recl&uuation Service are truly remarkable in view of the fact that much of the land is practically new and many of the farmers were unfamiliar with irrigation methods until they acquired these farms. A surprising feature that impresses visitors to these lands is the modern conditions that already surround the settler on many of the projects. Rural telephones, centralized graded schools, good transportation facilities, and towns at short intervals are some of the things that rob life on these new lands of many of the the trials of pioneering. The available lands are all in the Northwest, mainly in Montana, South Dakota, Wyoming and Idaho. This is the best season of the year to make personal inspection of the farms, and different railroAds offer low round trip rates to various sections. Residence does not have to be established for six months after filing and the act of June 6,1912, reduces the required residence from five to three years. Payments for water right are divided into 10 annnal instalments, and if necessary 5 months leave of absence is permitted, so that it is practical for a man with from $1,000 to $2,000 capital to acquire one one of these desirable farms and make it pay- Booklets and information will be furnished on request by the Statistican of the Reclamation Service-at Washington, D.

This is true in part only. The general observance through many years of a set day on which to give thanks to Almighty God for hia blessings has made the cus torn distinctively American; but its origin long antedates the settlement of tills western continent. and we must look elsewhere for if. The idea of Thanksgiving day goes back to remotest antiquity. It is a part of natural religion, and is probably as old as the human race. In written records we have ample evidence that the festival was celebrated in connection with "tlu< fruits of the earth" by the ancient Egyptians, the •Jews, the Greeks, and the Romans, l^ong before Luther's revolt from Home in the sixteenth cen tury it had been observed by tho Oliristians; and after tho reformation, thanksgiving days were in frequent use by the Protestant*, especially those of England. In old Egypt, when the harvest had been gatheroed, it, was th<> custom to observe a day o? feasting, and to lay offerings upon the altars of Isis, the goddess of agriculture. Tho Jewish festival was tiie "ingathering," or the 'feast of thv tabernacle" mentioned in Exodus and other part* of the Old Testament. This was more particularly a thanksgiving for the fruit harvest, and an it came at the close of the entire harvest, it probably was intended also as a genera! thanksgiving "for the bounty of nature" in tho year that had passed. This festival appears early in Jewish history, and, as It was connected with the land and itn possession, may have had a Canaanitlsh proto type. Its celebration was annual and each festival continued through seven days. At the beginning "two vessels of silver were carried in 0 ceremonious maimer to tho temple, one full of water, the other of wine, which wero poured at. the foot of the altar of burnt offerings, always on the seventh day of the festival." Plutarch describes this ceremonial which he believed was a feast to Bacchus. He says: "Tho Jews celebratotd two feasts to Uacchus. In the midst of the vintage they spread tables, spread with all manner of fruits, and live in tabernacle* made especially of palms and ivy wreaths together. . . . A few days later they kept another festival which was openly dedicated to Hacchus, for they carried boughH of palms in their hands, with which they went into the tern pie. the Lovites going before with instruments of music." Analogous to the Jewish festival and possibly borrowed from it was that of the old Greeks, the Thesmorphla. This was a feast to Deraeter, the goddess of the harvest. It lasted nine days and consisted of sacrifices of the products of tho soil with oblations of "wine, milk and honey." Theocritus refers to it In the Seventh Idyl, where Simlchldas says: "Now. this Is our way to the Thalysia, for our friends, in sooth, are making a feast to Demeter of the beautiful robe, offering tho first fruits of thefr abundance, since for them in bounteous manner the goddess has piled the thrashing floor with barley." The goddess of the Roman harvest was Ceres, iler festival was celebrated annually and was called Ceralia. It was a day for worship and rustic sports. Men and women formed processioue and went to the fields with music. Virgil refers to this festival. He mentions the sacrifices that were offered In the temples and alludes to the joyousueBB of the occasion. In one way or another, Thanksgiving day had been observed in Christian Europe for centuries before its celebration in New England. On the continent, and for a time in England, ft occurred at Martinmas, which was a day of feasting and drinking. Occasionally, too, civil authorities recommended the observance of some fixed day. To celebrate the victory of King Henry V of England at Agincourt, Oct. 25, 1415, a public thanksgiving was held on Sunday, the feast of St. Edward, the king and confessor. Such a dav. too. was observed in Leydeu. Holland.

In 1559, the second year of Ellaabeth's reign. Thanksgiving day entered Rogation day. Then it was ordered that thanks should be given to Almighty God "for the increase and abundance of his fruits upon tho earth." In this relgu, too, there was a great national thanksgiving day that is worthy of note. This occurred on Tuesday, Nov. 19. 1588, aad was in commemoration of the great victory over the "lnvlncibte armada." It had been described by -NIco! In his "Progreas of Queen Elizabeth. by Stowe, and by some other contemporary writers. We are told that "the day waa kept holy throughout the roalm. with sermona, singinj of psalms, bonfires, etc., for joy and thanksgiving unto God for the overthrow of the Spaniards, our enemies, on the sea; and the citizens of Ixmdon in their liveries that day had a sermon at St Paul's cross tending to that end."

WOK ordered that because of their deliverance the English people should keep the 5th of November every year "as a public thanksgiving to Almighty God, that unfeigned thankfulness may never be forgotten and that all ages to come may yield praise to God's divine majesty for the same." The "5th of November" continued a legal thanksgiving day for more than two centuries, but in later years it fell into disuse, and in 1833 was abolished by parliament, Long before tho advent, of the pilgrims in Massachusetts, all rituals contained expressions of gratitude to God for his mercies. In that of tho Church of England special prayers were provided for the Sunday service. This service, however, must be carefully distinguished from the Thanksgiving day of tho pilgrim fathers. Failure to make this distinction has led to the groundless claim that the Popham colonists "were the first, to keep Thanksgiving day" in America. The service at Monhegan on which this claim Is based was the regular Sunday service of the Church of England, and while it had an element of thanks-, giving the day can in nowise be regarded as a Thanksgiving day as that term is understood. Contemporary evidence refutes all claim to the contrary. From "A Relation of Voyage to Sagadoc" we read as follows: "Sundaye beinge the 9th of AuguBt, in the morninge the most part of our boll company of both shipes landed on this Hand, whear the cross standeth; and thear we heard a sermon delyvred unto us by our preacher, gyving* God thanks for our happy metinge and saffe aruall Into tho country, and so returned abord again." (Massachusetts Historical society proceedings, xvii., 102.) - The record made in his "Breeches Bible" by William White, who came over in the Mayflower, has far more significance in determining the origin of our American Thanksgiving day than the event at Monhegan. The record reads: "Will* iam White married on ye 3d day of March. 1620, to Susannah Tilly. Peregrine White, born on board ye Mayflower in Cape Cod harbor, sonne. Born to Susannah White December 19th, ye six o'clock morning. Next day we meet for praver and thanksgiving." This meeting for "prayer anAJJig^jd^A!LJgMLnaL-fln. Sandav. but on., Tuesday, The fact that it was not a part of the regular Sunday service makes it more nearly accord with our Idea of Thanksgiving dav than does the Monhegan event But this similarity is not sufficient to warrant our regarding It as the origin of the American custom. The prototype of our present Thanksgiving day is found In the harvest festival at Plymouth la 1621. The long winter that followed the establishment of the colony had been one of great mortality and suffering. Scarcely half of the,colony had survived it. "At one time during the winter only Brewster, Stan dish aad five other hardy ones were well enough to get about." In the spring and summer that followed their fortunes improved, and by autumn they had cleared twenty- six acres and made it ready for cultivation. This industry, too. had been rewarded bv a bounteous harvest, Now food aotf fuel sufficient for the needs of the approaching winter were laid la. Then Governor Rradforr*. ordered a ThankigiWng —the first in America. This first Thanksgiving waa not for a day only. It continued a week. In a totter to a friend In jtmztrS I&R pzftzpjwrjz? Kngland, Edward Winsiow has given us a brief account of the festivities. This letter bears the date of Dec. 11, 1621, and in it Winsiow wrote: "Our harvest beinge gotten In, our governor sent four men on fowling that so we might after special manner rejoice together after we had gathered the fruits of our labors. They four killed ns much fowl as with a little help beside served the company about a week. At which times, among other recreations, we exercised our arms, many of the Indians coming amongst us. and among the rest their greatest king, Massasoyt, with some ninety men, whom for three days we entertained and feasted, and they went out and killed five deer, which they brought and bestowed on our governor and "upon the captalna and others." From other sources we know that there were athletic contests besides the exercises of arms which Winsiow mentioned. No doubt they played at "stoolball," an old form of croquet, and "pitch ye bar," which "Bradford mentions in his journal. There were no special religious services —at Jeast there Is no evidence of any. The pilgrims had their dairy prayers before breakfast. In this service, and in the Joyous spirit that seems to have dominated the occasion as well, there was, no doubt, a devout thanksgiving to God for all the blessings he had vouchsafed them. It has been repeatedly asserted that this Thanksgiving festival waa snggeeted to the nilgrims by the Jewish "feast of Ingathering.*' This Is not probable, as the differences between them are more striking than the likenesses. They were of the same duration, each lasting a WP**; pud In common with an other harvest festivals they bad the same intent ^ But in the Jewish festival sacrifice and worship- were the prevailing characteristics, while in that of the pilgrims they were entirely wanting. If the Plymouth festival has Immediate kinship with similar events in the past, it has analogies with the harvest home of England which may relate them. The pilgrims were familiar with the English celebration and many of them, no doubt had participated in It. The dominant mark of each was the Joy over the ingathering harvest In* some districts in England, too, the festival bad continued a week.—Richard Carew In hit "8uTvey of Cornwell," in speaking of the English festival, aays: "Neither doth good cheere whooly expire (though it somewhat decrease) but with the end of the weeke." The chier difference between the two was the want of ceremony at Plymouth that characterised the English festival. In some parts of England the merry making waa around the "nodding sheaf," or "kern baby,'* and in many places UM last load of the harvest was drawn to the bars In a wagon called the "hoch oart.H In front we*t pipe and tabor, and around It gathered the reaaera, male and female, singing Joyously as they proceeded. At Plymouth there was no ceremony.. The last shock of corn was not brought in "ar- ' rayed in brilliant finery." Neither waa there any "blessing of the cart." or "kissing of the sheaves," There waa no harvest song ao familiar la the fatherland: "Here's health to the barley mow; Here's a health to the man Who vary wall eaa Both narrow and plow and sow." in Patience is No Virtue^ Bm I m p a t i e n t w i t K B»eK»clk#X ffdurc TeOt a Stwu A Too patiently do^ many women endure backache, languor, dizsiness and urinary ills, thinking tbem part of woman's lot Often it is only weak kidneys and Doan's Kidney Pills would cure the case.

The only way to deal Som« Man Can Gat Mere Out of Anf* mats In Ona Round With Plow Than Another Will In Two. How many acres of tillable farm land will one horse work? This, of course, depends on the kind of farming done, on the kind of machinery used and on the efficiency of the man who works the horses. It would not be difficult to find 100 acres of tillable land worked in one case with two good horses and from this on up to six work horsey. Probably more depends on the ability of the driver to handle his horses than any other one thing. Some drivers will take more out of their horses at one round with the plow than another will in two rounds. In one case the plow* ing is done in a haphazard sort of way, the horses are tangled at the ends, are backed and turned unnecessarily, are jerked viciously when out of line, and possibly the harnesses do not fit properly. In the other case the horses are given a steady, true gait which is kept up, the turns are smooth and without yelling and jerking and the driver watches the working of his plow and fit of his harnesses all day long. No team should be worked over an hour at hard pulling before the harnesses are looked over to see that all parts set properly. To some this carefulness comes naturally; to others it never will come. Efficiency in the driver means efficiency in the team, and it is a pleasure to see horses worked well. / M I C H I G A N BREVITIES HOW TO MAKE A CHEAP WELL Wall Can Be Laid Five or Six Feet High, Arching It at Top With Large Stone for Covering.

Never expose freshly made concrete to the hot Bummer sun. Avoid too rapid drying out, says the American Cultivator. Do not allow it to freeze before it is properly hardened. Do not use soft sand stone or brick except for filler in largo work, and even then with discretion. Do not apply fresh cement to old and hardened surfaces without first thoroughly "soaking with water and backing a rough surface on it. Cleanse thoroughly and then apply a very thin, neat cement wash. Do not attempt to retemper and use concrete that has stood too long in the mixing board and attained its s e t Use a uniform Portland cement and give attention to uniform methods of working and the results will be uniform.

It is impossible to drive a pipe for a well in some localities, and stones are scarce to lay a wall in a dug well, writes J. H. Andre of Wisconsin in the Farm and Home. In such cases the wall can be laid 5 or 6 feet high, arching it at the top with large stones to 15 or IS inches in diameter, and cover it with a large flat stone, a, with a hole in the center to admit a 6-inch pipe. Place a stone, b, in the bottom of the well 18 inches in diameter and 4 inches thick. Concrete is best. Make a concrete cone, c, 3 feet long, 16 inches in diameter, at the bottom, 3 inches thick and of a size to fit the bell end of an 8-inch sewer pipe at the top. The large end of the cone will need openings in the side to allow the water to enter freely when pumping. Place the large end of the cone on the stone. The first length, d, of sewer pipa can be 8 inches. When the pipe, e, reaches above where the well is stoned it can be reduced to 6 Inches a few lengths and then f to 4 Inches.

S Comsamptioa of Fruit Statistics for 1909 show that the apple crop of the United States was worth 183,000,000, peaches «26,000,000, grapea 22,000,000, strawberries $170,000, oranges reaching the same large figures. The people of the United States consumed 10,000,000 of plums and prunes, $7,0000,000 of pears and cherries and $5,000,000 of the raspberries. One of the curious features of this production of fruit has been the lessening of the apple crop, which in the past decade, with a growing population, has decreased from 175,000,000 to 150,000,000 barrels. On the other hand, the production of tropical fruits in continental United States has about trebled in the same time, and ten times as many pineapples are gtown now as were produced ten years ago.

TfciB world ts divided between freehllters and but-chokeiH, but to under* etand the simile you must be a fan, or at least have the confidence of a fan who will lead you through the door of wisdom. The free-hitter, be it known, ts the batsman of the supercilious eye who begins hia swing away back over his shoulder, brings It round like a yacht's boom gibing in « strong wind and driveB the ball w e r the left field fence or— misses It. He is the producer of home runs and three-baggers and is the recipient of adulation and automobiles. Ho is Speaker and Jackson and Doyle and the world-famous Casey. The bat- •choker Is different, says the New Orleans Times-Democrat He is the man who slides bis hand well down onto the swell of the bat, where, with « longer leverage, he can make a <iulck jab at the speeding sphere. He i s content if he scratches a sacrifice or beats a bunt down to first. Nobody loves him, but he wins many a ball game, thongh even in the midst of victory he feels that the manager has the toboggan under him and Is only waiting for a bonehead play to touch the trigger and send him to tho minor league.

There have been no eating apples within the range of any but the fattest pocketbook for many seasons, while the character of the pie apple is such aB to require uncommon aptitude/ for the composition of the crust to make a pie fit to eat; or else tho cost of tho filling has required that the pie must be nearly all crust. A big crop is now in prospect and new orchards are coming to fruitage every season; such is the temptation of the soaring quotations, says the Providence Journal. At this juncture one of the orators at an apple growers' convention has the nerve to propose an advertising campaign, lest there be overproduction. Does not this proposal mean that the growers are determined to maintain, prices as the supply Increases? Something is said about instructing women in the theory that eating apples beautifies the complexion. That ought to create a market, to be sure. But there need be no fear of lack of demand. Apples will need no advertising If the price Is tight. And any artifice calculated to maintain high prices should be frowned upon by tho hard-pressed rxrasumer. ANN ARBOR DEFEATS CORNELL 20 TO 7 IN GAME OF FOOT BALL AT THE U. OF M. EATON COUNTY ELECTION CASE UP TO T H E LEGISLATURE. The Upper Peninsula Produced One* fifth of the Copper of 1911 With 219,840,000 Out of a Total of 1,097,232,000. Maize and Blue Defeats Cornell. Strategy, perfectly timed and perfectly executed, accomplished for Michigan what mere strength and determination never could have done— accomplished the overthrow of the "Big Red Team" from Cornell by a score of 20 7. That is rather a top-heavy score and one might get the impression that it was perfectly easy and pleasant for Michigan to whip these men from Ithaca. Don't be misled Kentle reader, into thinking anything of the sort. It was anything but a one-sided game and for at least 45 of its 60 minutes things looked as though-Michigan would be very glad to call it quits with the score a tie. But Michigan's team was living something down an 1 was out to show that the reputation of Maize and Blue elevens for fighting until the final whistle blows in a merited one, that dreadful gume at Pennsylvania notwithstanding. The last five minutes of play proved the most vivid of the afternoon and it saw Michigan turn probable tie, which pleases nobody and leaves a bad taste in the mouths of all concerned into a splendid victory with something to" spare. Pleads Guilty of Trying to Kilt Teddy. John 8chrank, who tried to kill Col. Roosevelt in Milwaukee on the night of Oct. 14, pleaded guilty before Judge AugUBt C. Backus in the municipal court. An insanity commission was appointed to examine Schrank's mental condition. Schrank was brought into the court room heavily manacled and between two deputy sheriffs. Police and depu-; ties were scattered in the room and the crowd, which jammed the chamber, was forced to keep at a distance- The would-be slayer, who is small, appeared heirless as he meekly shuffled in between his guards. If Schrank Is found sane, Col. Roosevelt will come to testify at hi3 trial. If he is insane, he will bo sent to a hospital. Schrank made his plea in a low voice, hardly audible more than a short distance trom the judge's bench. "Did you Intend to murder and kill, with malice aforethought, one Theodore Roosevelt, as Is charged against vou. and do you plead guilty or not guilty?" asked District Attorney Zabel, as Schrank stood before the bar. "I plead guilty of shooting the man if that is what you mean," answered Schrank. "Did you intend to kill Theodoro Roosevelt," repeated Zabel. "I shot Theodore Roosevelt to kill him. I think all men trying to keep themselves in office should be killed; they become dangerous. I did not do it because he was a candidate of the Progressive party." Recent Investigations Into the hours of work by officials of tho French department of navigation have brought to light a record in government employment in the shape of an official whose dally "hours of duty" amount to exactly two minutes. This man dwells at a place on the Belgian frontier, and his arduous labors consist In fetching from one office a list of the number of barges that have entered French territory the previous twenty. four hours and handing the said list ^ at another office, if the position be sinecure, the pay is not high, the numeration amounting a $1.40 a month.

Mr. Pray claims that his resignation, to take effect Nov. 4, was Hied with Judge of Probate Dann, on Nov. 2, and for that reason the section mentioned does not apply. Mr. Backus contends that the county clerk was ineligible as far back as the primaries anti will present affidavits to show that Mr. Pray continued to act as county clerk up to the time the protest was tiled with the board, Tuesday.

EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS. Wilson Announces Call for Extra Session Before April 15. "I shall call congress together in extraordinary session not later than April 15. I shall do thiB not only because I think that the pledges of the party ought to be redeemed as promptly as possible but also I know it to be in the interest of business that all uncertainty as to what the particular items of tariff revision are to be should be removed as soon as possible—WOODROW WILSON." President-elect Wilson took the first important step towards carrying out his pledges to the people, when he announced he would call an extra session of congress not later than April 15, instead of waiting six months for the regular session. The president-elect gave out his statement before embarking on his vacation for two reasons. First, as declared in his statement, he desired to remove any uncertainty that might be injurious to the business interests of the country. The second reason was purely selfish,' he remarked. He wants to spend his vacation in quiet and peace. He realized, he said, that unless the question was settled at this time, he would be beselged continually for a definite statement on the subject. Simultaneously with the issuance of his statement the president-elect gave permission to say he is to spend his vacation in Bermuda. He sailed on the steamship Bermudian Saturday afternoon. The Bermudian is booked solidly and the nresldent-elect has been assured that there are no politicians among the passengers.

It was an opportune speech, heartful) and resonant with good fellowship. • And, as it was specially intended for American ears, the audience, com prised largely of BO many American settlers in Canada, the time and place could not have been better chosen. It was In reply to an address of welcome tendered to him at the pretty city of Macleod, with the foothill ot the Rockies as a setting, and the great wheat fields between, and In fact all around the place as the foreground, that His Highness, true to the best interests of the country and to those of the Americans who choose to make Canada their home, said to part: "I am well aware that among those whom I am now addressing, there aro a very great proportion who were not: born under the British flag. Most of these will have realized by now that residence under that flag implies no disabilities. All we ask Is that the laws of Canada should be obeyed.

"Oer American cousins are welcome from over the border. Thrice we welcome our Canadian and British brothers, who return to the Union Jack, after living under the Stars and Stripes. "HiBtory is repeating itself. For many years hundreds of young Britishers have sought fortune in tho western States. Time has brought, about a change, and the tide has s e t in the other direction, bringing across the frontier numbers of our neighbors to whom we are glad to return hospitalities. "One of the chief dispensers of such hospitality in proportion to its popo-j lation has, as we have said, changed! its character from an important cattle town to a thriving wheat producing: area. "What it has. lost from the picturesque point of view, it has gained in: the material side, and I wish, in conclusion, to express the hope that the1 prosperity which has evinced itself here for the past ten years, may con-j tinue unabated in the future.*" There is no reason why at a hun-i dred places on this educative, instructive and interesting trip of His Royal Highness he might not have express-; ed himself in the same terms, and o n each occasion, addressed large gatherings of Americans who are now set-) tied on the prairies of Western Cana*) da.—Advertisement.

The Vanishing Portrait. Evelyn Grayson, meeting mo on the oW PoBton Po8t ttoad, between G r e ^ wich and Stamford, gave me u luesaage from her uncle. That is ibe logical beginning of thir story; though to make everything quite clear from the start it may be better to hark fcack a few mouths, to the day on which Evelyn Grayson and I first met Then, as now, we were each driving our own car; she. a great sixty horse* power machine, all glistening pale yellow, and 1, a compact Bix-cylinder raoer, of dull dusty gray. But we were not on any such broad, roomy thoroughfare as the Boston Poat Road. On ilie contrary we were short-cutting through a narrow, rough lane, beset by Btone walls and interrupted at intervals by a series of sharp and treacherous angles. 1 know ! shall never forget the momentary impression I received. Out of the golden sunlight, it seemed to me, there had emerged suddenly a tableau of Queen Titania on a topaz throne—the fairest Queen Titania imagiation ever conjured—and I, in my mad, panting speed was aboTit to crash into the gauzy fabric of that dream creation and rend it with brutal, torturing onrush of relentless, bard-driven nickel steel. 1 take no credit to myself for what I did. Volition was absent. My hands acted on an impulse above and beyond all tardy mental guidance. For just a flashing Instant the gray nose of my car rose before me, as in strenuous assault it mounted half way to the coping of tbe roadside wall. I felt my seat dart away from beneath me, was conscious of my body in swift, unsupported aerial flight, and then—but it is idle to attempt to set down the conglomerate sensations of that small fraction of a second. When I regained cou- «ciousness, Queen Titania was kneein g in the dust of the lane beside me —a very distressed and anxious Queen Titania, with wide, startled eyes, and quiverlngly sympathetic lips—and about us were a half dozen or more of the vicinal country folk. Between that meeting in mid-May and this meeting on the old Boston Post Road in mid-September, there had been others, of course; for Queen Titania, whose every-day name, as I have said, was Evelyn Grayson, was 5 the niece and ward of my nearest neighbor, Mr. Robert Cameron, a gen- I tleman recently come to reside on * what for a century and more had been known as the old Townsbury Estate, extending for quite a mile along the Connecticut shore of Long Island Bound In the neighborhood of Greenwich. The intervening four months had witnessed the gradual growth of as near an approach to intimacy between Cameron and myself as was possible considering the manner of man that Cameron was. By which statement I mean to Imply naught to my neigh* tor's discredit He was In all respects admirable—a gentleman of education and culture, widely traveled, of exalted ideals and noble principles to which foe gave rigid adherence. Bat—I was about to qualify this by describing him aa reserved and taciturn. I fear, though, to give a wrong impression.

It was no gossamer fairy, but Hebe, the Goddess of Tooth, with creamy akin mad red Una and a lilting melody of voice: "What ho, Sir Phi Up! We are well jBtet!" v And thea ebe told me that her U e d e ttobert bad telephoned for ma, leaving a w i s e s t ! with my man, btddiag me eeme to him at jay earliest leisure. "Why not come for dinner?" she added; and her eyea gave aeceut to her words. "But you?" I queried; for her car was headed in the opposite direction "I am going alone to Norton. I have a hamper in the tonneau for that poor O'Malley family. I shall be back in time. We dine at half-past seven, you know. You'll come?" "Of course I'll come." I answered her. I think she must have heard more in my voice than the simple words, for her lids drooped, for just a breath, and the color flamed sudden below her lowered lashes. But, after all, I saw very little of her that evening. It is true that she sat on my right at table, piquanrly, youthfully beautiful in the softly tinted light which filtered through the pink and silver filigree candlo-shades, but the atmosphere of the dinner was tinged by a vague, unreasoning constraint as from some ominously brooding yet undefinable influence which overhung the three of us. And when the coffee and liqueurs were served, employing some Blender pretext for her going, she bade us good-night, and left us, not to return. In Justice to Cameron, I must add that ho appeared least affected by— and certainly in no wise responsible for—the pervading infestlvlty. He had been, indeed, rather less demure than was often his wont, chatting with almost gayety concerning Evelyn's new role of Lady Bountiful and of her Norton beneficiaries. As for the subject upon which he desired to consult me, it had not been so much as mentioned; so in looking back, it seems impossible that matters of which neither Evelyn nor I was at the time informed could have exerted an effect, save through Cameron's undetected, subconscious inducement. Even after his niece had withdrawn, Cameron continued for a time to diBcns8 with me topics of general and public, rather than personal, Import. He spoke, I remember, of a series of articles on "The Commercial Resources of the United States," the publication of which bad Just begun in The Week, of which I am owner and editor; and though I fancied at first that it might be in this connection he wished to consult me, I very soon discerned that he was merely using n statement contained therein aa a text for certain views of his own on the conservation and development of the country's timber supply. Meanwhile my curiosity grew keener. It was natural, I suppose, that I should fancy Kyelyn involved in some way. IiJ fact I then attributed the depression during dinner to her knowledge of what her uncle and guardian purposed to say to me. Likewise I found In this conception the reason for her sudden and unusual desertion. Hitherto when I bad dined here Evelyn had remained with us while we smoked our cigarettes, leading us at length to the music room, where for a glad half-hour the rich melody of her youthful sweet contralto voice mingled In pleasing harmony with her own piano accompaniment And while I vainly made effort to Imagine wherein I might have laid my* self open to the disapproval of this most punctilious of guardians-—for I expected nothing less than a studiously polite reference to some shortcoming of which I had been unwittingly guilty—I momentarily lost track of my host's discourse. Emerging from my abstraction It waa with a measure of relief that I heard him say lag; "I think you told me oboe, Clyde, that you rather prided yourself on your ability to get a line oa one's character from his handwriting. That's why I telephoned for you this afternoon. I have received aa anoey moua letter." He was leaning forward, a little constrainedly, his left hand grtpntag the arm of hie chair, the fingers of his right hand toying with tbe stem of bis gold-rimmed Bohemian liqueur glass. "An anonymous letter!" I repeated, with a deprecatory smile. "Anonymous letters should be burned and forgotten. Surely you're not bothering about me writer i X wish 1 could put before you aa exact reproduction of Gamerea'a face aa I then saw It; those nigged outlines, the heritage of Scottish ancestry, softened and refiaed by a brilllaat intellectuality; tbe sturdy chia and square jaw; tbe heavy underttp meeting the upper hi scarcely perceptible curve; the broad, homely nose; the small, but alert, gray eyea, shining through the round lenses of his spectacles; the high, broad, sloping, white brow and the receding border of dark brown, slightly giisaled hair. That, super, flcially, waa the face. But I aaw more than that la the visage of one naturally brave I saw a battle waged behind a mask—a battle between courage and fear; and I aaw fear wis. Then the mask became opaque once more, and Cameron, giving me smile for smile, waa replying. "There are anonymotts letters aad anonymous letters. Ordinarily yog* method la the one 1 shootd purene. Indeed I may say that when, about a month or so ago, I received a communication uf that character, I did almost precisely what you now advise. Certainly I followed one-half of your prescription—1 forgot the letter; though, for lack of fire in the dog days, I did not burn it, but thrust it into a drawer with an accumulation of advertising circulars." My apprehension lest Evelyn and I were personally affected had been by now quite djssipated. It was perfectly apparent to me that Cameron alone was involved; yet my anxiety was none the less eager. Already my sympathy and co-operation were enlisted. I could only hope that he had mentally exaggerated the gravity of the situation, yet my judgment of him was that his inclination would be to err in the opposite direction. "And now something has happened to recall it to your memory?" "Something happened very shortly after its receipt," he replied. "Something very puzzling. But in spite of that, I was inclined to treat tiie matter as a bit of clever chicanery, devised for the purpose, probably, of extortion. As such, I again put it from my thoughts; but, today I received a second letter, and I admit 1 am interested. The affair has features which make it, indeed, uncommonly perplexing." I fear my imagination was sluggish. Although, in spite cf his dissemblance, I saw that he was strangely moved by these happenings, I could fancy no very terrifying concomitants of the rather commonplace facts he had narrated. For anonymous letters 1 had ever held scant respect. An ambushed enemy, I argued, is admittedly a coward. And so I was in danger of growing impatient. "When the second letter came," he continued, bringing his left hand forward to join bis right on the dazzling white ground of the table's damask, "I searched among the circulars for the first, and found it. I want you to see them both. The writing is very curious— I have never seen anything Just like it—and the signature, if I may call it that, is still more singular. On the first letter, I took it for a blot. But on the second letter occurs the same black blur or smudge of identical outline." Of course I thought of the Black Hand. It was the natural corollary, seeing that the newspapers had been giving us a surfeit of Black Hand threats and Black Hand outrages. But, somehow, 1 did not dare to voice it. To have suggested anything so ordinary to Cameron In his present mood would have been to offer him offense. And when, at the next moment, he drew from an inner pocket of his evening coat two thin, wax-like sheets of paper and passed them to me, I was glad that I had kept silence. For tbe letters were no rough, rude scrawls of an Illiterate Mafia or Camorra. In phraseology as well as~ In penmanship they were impressively unique. "If you don't mind," Cameron was saying, "you might read them aloud." He rose and switched on a group of electric wall lights at my back, and I marked for the hundredth tlmo his physique—his towering height, his powerful shoulders, his leanness of hip and sturdy stralghtneas of limb. He did not look the forty years to which he confessed. One of the long French windows which gave upon the terrace stood ajar, aad before resuming his seat Cameron paused to close it, dropping over it the looped curtains of silver gray velvet that matched the walls. In tbe succeeding moment tbe room waa ghostly silent; and then, breaking against tbe stillness, was tbe sound of my voice, reading: "That which you have wrought shall in turn be wrought upon you. Take warning therefore of what shall happen on the seventh day hence. Aa sun follows sun, so follows all that Is decreed. The ways of our God are many. On the righteous he showers blessings; on tbe evil be poara misery.1' That was the first letter. The second began with the same sentence T h a t which you have wrought shall In turn be wrought upon you." But thero, though tbe similarity of tenor continued, tbe verbal Identity ceased. It went on: "Once more, as earnest of what te decreed, there will be shown unto yoa a symbol of our power. PrecaaUoa cannot avail. Fine words and a sarnU* lag countenance make not virtue. * And beneath each letter was tbe strange silhouette which Cameron had mentioned. It is difficult for me to convey tbe moat meager Idea* of tbe emotional Influence which these two brief communications exerted. They seemed to breathe a grim spirit of implacable | Hsmsela far in excess of anything to I be found in the euphemism of the written worda. When I had finished the reading of them aloud, ramcmn» leaning far back la hie chair, ant silently thoughtful, his eyea narrowed behind his gtsaass, hat ftsei anparently upon tbe Ughts behind me. And so, reluctant to interrupt his reverie, i started to read them through a^ain slowly, this time to myself, fixing each sentence indelibly in mind us I proceeded. But before I had quite come to the end, my companion waa speaking. "Well?" it<> «aid. And the light cheeriness of his tone was not only In marked contrast with his grave absorption of a moment before, but in jarring discord with my own present mood. "Well? What do you make of them?" My annoyance found voice in my response. "Cameron," I begged, "for God's sake be serious. T1;1B doesn't seem to me exactly :i matter to be merry over. I don't want to alarm you, but somehow I feel that these—" and I shook the crackling, wax-like sheets, "that these cannot be utterly Ignored." "But they are anonymous," he retorted, not unjustly. "Anonymous letters should be burned and rorgot- 1 ten." "There are anonymous letters and anonymous letters," I gave him back, in turn. "These are of an unusually convincing character. Besides, they —" And then I paused. I wished to tell him of that elusive encompasament of sinister portent which had so impressed me; of that malign foreboding beyond anything warranted by the words; but I stumbled in the effort at expression. "Besides," I started again, and ended lamely, "I don't like the look and the feel of them." And now he was as serious as I could wish. "Ah!" he cried, leaning forward again and reaching for the letters. "You have experienced it, too! And you can't explain it, any more than I? It is something that grips you when you read, like an icy hand, hard as steel, in a glove of velvet. It's always between the lines, reaching out, and nothing you can do will stay it, I thought at first I imagined it, but the oftener I have read, the more I have felt its clutch. The letters of themselves are nothing. What do you suppose I care for veiled threats of that sort? I'm big enough to take care of myself, Clyde. I've met peril in about every possible guise, in every part of the world, and I've never really known fear. Uut this—this IB different. And the worst of it is, I don't know why. I can't for the life of me make out what it is I'm afraid of." He had gone very pale, and his strong, capable hands, which toyed with the two letters, quivered and j twitched in excess of nervous tension, Then, with a finger pointing to the ink-stain at the bottom of one of the sheets, he asked: "What does that look llko to you?" I took the letter from him, and scrutinizing the rude figure with concentrated attention for a moment, ventured the suggestion that it somewhat resembled a boat. "A one-masted vessel, squarerigged," he added, in elucidation. "Exactly." "New turn It upside down." I did ao. "Now what do you see?" 'The head of a man wearing a helmet.** The resemblance was very marked. "A straw helmet, apparently/* he amplified, "such as is worn in the Orient. And yet the profile is not that of an Oriental. Now, look at your ves* sel again." And once more I reversed the sheet of paper. "Can it be a Chinese junk?" I asked. "It might be a sailing proa er banca," he returned, "such as they use in the South Pacific. But whatever it Is, I can't understand what It has to do with me or I with it." 1 was still studying the black daub, when he said: "But you haven't told me about the handwriting. What can you read of tbe character of tbe writerT" "Nothing." I answered, promptly. "It Is curious penmanship, as you say —heavy and regular and upright, with some strangely formed letters; especially the f*s and the p's; but it tells me nothing." "But I thought—" be began. T h a t I boasted? So I did. When one writes aa one habitually writes it la very easy. These letters, however, are not in tbe writer's ordinary hand. The writing la as artificial aa though yon, for example, had printed a note in Roman characters. Were they addressed In the same hand I" "Precisely.* "What was the post-mark?" "They bore no post-mark. That is another strange circumstance. Yet they were with my mail. How they came there I have been unable to as* certain. The people at the post office naturally deny that they delivered anything unstamped, as these were; and Barrie, the lad who fetches the letters, has no recollection of these Nor has Checkabeedy, who sorts the mall here at the house. But each of them lay beside my plate at break* fast—the first on tbe fourteenth of August;.the eeeoasl this morning, tbe 1 fourteenth of September." "And they were uoi delivered hy messenger?" "So far as I Scan ttanj, no." "It is very odd," I commented, with feeble banality. I took the letters from his hands once more, and held them in turn between my viBlon and the candle-light, hoping, perchance, to discover a water- mark in the paper. But I was not rewarded. "You" examined the envelopes carefully, I presume?" waB my query as 1 returned the sheets to the table "More than carefully," he answered. "But you shall see them, if you like. 1 found no trace of any identifying mark." Thus far he had made' no further mention of the "puzzling happening" which followed the receipt of the first letter, and in the interest provoked by the letters themselves I had foreborne to question him; but now as the worda "seventh day hence" fell again under my eye, standing out, as it were, from the rest of thu script which lay upturned on the tabU- before im\ i was conscious of a stimulated concern, and so made inquiry. "I wish you would tell mr, llrst, whether anything really did occur on the seventh day." "I was coining to that," he replied; but it seemed to me that prompt though his response was, there was u shade of reluctance in his manner. Then he rose, abruptly, and saying: "Suppose we go into my study, Clyde," led the wuy from the dining room, across the great, imposing, grained and fretted hall to that comparatively small mahogany and green symphony wherein he was wont to spend most of his indoor hours. It was always a rather gloomy room at night, .with Its high dark celling, its heavy and voluminous olivo tapestry hangings, wholly out of keeping, it seemed to me, with the season—and its shaded lights confined to the vicinity of the massive polished, and gilt-ornamented writing table of the period of the F»lrst Empire. And it impressed me now, in conjunction with Cameron's promised revelation, as more than ever grim and awesome. 1, remember helping myself to a cigar from, the humidor which etood on the antique cabinet in the corner near the door. I was in the act of lighting It when Cameron spoke. "I want you to sit In this chair," ho said, indicating one of sumptuous upholstery which stood beside the writing table, facing the low, long bookcases lining the opposite wall. I did as he bade me, while ho remained standing. "Do you. by any chance," ho asked, "remember a portrait which hung above the book-shelves?" I remembered it very well. It was a painting of himself, done some years back. Uut now my guao sought It in vain. "Certainly," I answered. "It hung there," pointing. "Quito right. Now I want you to observe the shelf-top. You sec how crowded It is." It was indeed crowded. Bronze busts und statuettes; yachting and golf trophies in silver; framed photographs; a score of odds and ends, souvenirs gathered the world over. There was scarcely an inch of space unoccupied. I had frequently observed this plethora of ornament and resented It. It gave to that part of the room tbe semblance of a curiosity shop. When I had nodded my assent, ho went on: "On the afternoon of Friday, AuguBt twenty-first, seven days after tho receipt of that first letter, I was sitting where you are sitting now. I was reading, and deeply Interested. I bad put the letter, as I told you. entirely out of my mind. I had forgotten it, absolutely. Tuat seventh-day business I had regarded—-if I regarded it at all —as idle vaporing. That this was the afternoon of the seventh day did not occur to me until afterwards, I recall that I paused in reading to ponder a paragraph that was not quite clear to me, and that while in contemplation I fixed my eyes upon that portrait I remember that, because it struck me, then, that tbe flesh tints of the face had grown muddy and that the thing would be better for a cleaning. I re* call, too. that at that moment, the lit* tie clock, yonder, struck three. I resumed my reading; but presently, an* other statement demanding cogitation, I lowered my book, and once more my eyes rested on the portrait But not on the muddy flesh tints, because*—0 he paused and leaned forward, towards me, speaking with impressive empha* sis. "Because," be repeated, "there were no flesh tints there. Because there waa no bead nor face there!" I sat up suddenly, open-mouthed, speechless. Only my wide eyes made question. "Cut from the canvas," he went on, in lowered voice, "clean and sharp from crown to collar. And the bands of the clock pointed to twelve minutes past three." - (TO BS COWT1WUKP.)

From 1892 to 1902 the United States bureau of education introduced 1,280 European reindeer into Alaska at a time when tb« natives were threaten* ed with starvation. At the present time these herds have' increased to a total of 33,629 bead. Their meat is in great demand by both whites and natires, and their skins supply the best winter 'clothing. It Is expected that the exportation of reindeer meat | will soon beooxne an important industry. Abore all, the reindeer has proved a most efficient civilising agency. The success of the Alaskan reindeer enterprise Induced Dr. WU* fred Grenfell. in 1908. to import 500 reindeer from Lapland into Labrador. where they have now increased te about 1,200, and are a great boon to the natives.

County School Director's Meeting Despite the bad weather on Thursday of last week, fifty-two of the directors of Livingston coanly attended a very interesting meeting at Howell conducted by C. 8. Lasher pi the department of education. Some of the directors went borne wiser men than when they came. Mearly every director for this year was present. Every townshib was represented, Cofaoctah and Green Oak having the largest representation. Mr. Lasner nf^ed the directors to have a depository for rue district funds and insist that the banks yiv« a bond to the district and in tbis way relieve the treasurer and safeguard the district money. The department insists on eyery treasurer giving bonds and it this is not done within 10 days attei the treasurer accepts the office, the office is vacated and the the two remaining officers are to fill the vacancy at once. It any treasurer of thii* county has failed to file bonds with the various director* cf this county, the case should be reported at once to the Superintendent of the Public Instruction. Each treasurer must keep the dig trict money separate from all other money. All district money must be deposited in '.he bank as "John Smith treasurer of dist, No. etc." No bond can be signed by any of the other officers. No member of the township board can be a school officer. Whichever office he accepts last vacates the otber office, A teacher cannot teach above the 8th grade in a one room school without special permission from the department. All 9th ffrade pupils must have six months work in A<»ricufture.the textbook chosen waa Productive Farming by J. B. Lipp^ncott Co , Philadelphia. Mr. Lasher urpred the plea to instruct oar senator and representative to vote for state uniform text books. This will do do away with one book company coming into our county and changing our text books every five years and neglecting to change books that need changing,simply changing the books that will bring the most money to the company. Directors ware urged to close 9cbools.wbere there were Jess than 10 pupils and pay tuition and transportation to another district. A legal meeting of the board can not be called over the telephone. A written notice served 24 hours previous and on each member of the board is necessary for a legal meeting. Two members ot the board can hold a meet in», if the other members fail to come after being duly notified. The necessary qualifications of voters at a school meeting are persons having lived three months in the district previous to the meeting and have property assessed for school taxes or be the legal patent or guardian of children. No one not tax paying electors can vote a tax upon the district; no person not having reached tbe age of 21 and whose name appears upon the assessment roll can hold a school office. School officers must qualify within 10 days after be is elected, otherwise the office i? vacaut. The corupulsory school law compels tbe child to be in school every day. In ca.su of si-kness tbe truant officer can (HIiiipel a phytic;,; ^animation. After a patent has been notined of tbe absence ot bis child trom school tbe truant officer is to cause an arrest and in nowise can the court fail to inflict punishment of not less than five dollars nor mora than fifty dollars or imprisonment in the coupty or city jail tor not less than two or more than ninety days or both such fine and imprisonment in the discretion of the court. Please *ee that your children are in school within twenty-four hours after being notified and save tbe truant officer and the county all tbis trouble. The board under the u*w law is responsible for the hind of a school maintained in your district as tbey are not dependent on the voters to raise money to keep your school room in good condition and WHII supplied with material to work with. A good ventilating system and a sanitary fountain was urged for every school. Tbe ceilings of the school room should bf» tinted buff and th« sides green, these are restful colors for the eyes. The care of the outhouses comes under the jurisdiction of the truant officer; it toey are not put in proper shape, upon being notified by tbe commissioner, tbe truant officer should do tbis and charge tbe expense to the district. Every director should make the teacher responsible for the care of the ochool property in her contract In this way the district will help to make a better-school. No reason why a teacher should not demand just as good care of school property as the property in the home. It tbe people at annual meeting fail to fix the length of the term for the school year, tbe board may do so. Tbe teacher has complete jurisdiction over tbe children Irom the time tbey leave their borne in the morning until tbey reach the fame at night and may punish children tor any misdemeanor committed on the road. The teachet has tbe same right to punish that the parent has. Mill t8x and building and repair fund goes in the general fund. The new reports show only four funds: primary, general library and building and site fund in ca.-* a new school house is to be built. No building and repair fund is needed now as the board can make repairs out of tbe general fund. T.

Winfield Backus, a fifteen year old boy, also met instant death. They had bought a barrel of gasoline and were returning home about dusk. The night being cold both m en were well bundled about the head and shoulders. The train was a through freight and it is thought that their heavy wraps hindered them from hearing the train until it was upon them. Mr. Wood was a man fifty one years of age. He leaves a wife, two daughters and a son to mourn the loss of both husband and father. The funeral will be held Friday at one o'clock from the house and at one thirty from the church in Plainfield. Eleven brothers and sis.ers and loving parents remain to mourn the sad death of Winfield Backus one of the wage earners of the family.

Headquarters For Magazines and School Supplies v,.r ,.\ . - S . • M S V • » - ..*' W /*.> NOVELTY IS DEMANDED MOST STRIKING FEATURE OF DRESS TRIMMING SITUATION. fivery Conceivable Thlrtg That Will •Give an Air of "Difference" Is Employed— Most Unusual Effects Noted in Consequence. T h e keynote of the dresB trimming situation for the coming seaBon Is certainly novelty. Nothing is too "different" and unusual not to be in demand, and the more curiouB the trimming the greater seems to be its popularity. Fringes are tavored by the fashion makers in Paris and Berlin. Silk ball fringes in every conceivable style, size aad combination of color will be used on the more dressy costumes. Virtually all kinds of bead fringes are in demand, from the simplest to the most elaborate in the medium and narrow widths. Silk fringe will be seen on the gowns of plainer cut. Opalescent bead fringes, jet, black and white and all the shades of amber are great favorites, with gold and silver for use on elaborate evening costumes and some of the handsome wraps for evening wear. Colored embroidered bands are meeting with high favor. These come in all widths and a wide variety of de- • signs, many of them showing metallic threads intermingled with the floss »ilk. Solid metal effectB are largely used. Gold, silver, copper and gun metal embroidered sets at intervals with mock Jewels are wonderful in •their beauty, especially those of orlen- • tal design and rich coloring. Jets In band embroideries and fringes are well liked for trimmings •on black and white gowns; dull jets . are seen on mourning costumes. Very effective are the cut Jet costumes with rhlnestone centers and crystal buttons or all the conceivable colors set with colored Jewels and rhlnestones. Some of the most unusual effects are seen In the chiffon floral trimmings. These are in the form of bands of small or large blossoms, leaves and Tbuds, that can be transferred to the gown simply by catching them lightly from underneath with rather loose atltehery. They can be had in wreaths, lyarlands, clusters and In single blossoms, and there is certainly no question as to their beauty and adaptabilit y in the trimming of elaborate COBtomes for evenltjg and formal occas i o n s in the afternoon. Tunics are in great demand. Odd Bnd fancy styles are especially well liked. Prominent among these are t h o s e that are cut away in front, showing the influence of the dlrectoire period now dominant in Rarments of all descriptions. Other styles are draped .in pannier effect or else slashed at the .jaide, forming long panels in the front and the back. Very handsome models are they that show demi-flouncings, which vogue comes in directly from Paris. Hraids there are in such numbers and varieties that it would be impossible to describe them In a limited apace. Hut all are beautiful in design and texture, and if you desire a trimming for a simple morning frock ..choose braid. FOR THE STREET OR HOUSE Tweed Costume In Green Shade Recommended— Simple Home Dress for Almost Any Material- Tweed Costume.—Green tweed flecked with brown is used for our model. The coat is sacque shaped, trimmed with straps to match skirt. It has a collar of material, below which In front plaited lace frills hang. Straps trim the sleeves. Hat of black velvet, trimmed with a velvet ribbon mount. Materials required: Five yards of tweed 40 inches wide, five buttons, 43-2 yards silk or satin for lining coat. Simple Home Dress—So simple is this, that it might be made in many different materials. The skirt has a wrapped seam up the left side of front, six button* trim the foot. The waist is high and plainly set to the bodice, which is Magyar, and has a low, round neck, braided simply as trimming. The sleeves are trimmed to match. Materials required: Three and onehalf yards 42 inches wide, one-half dozen buttonB, one-half dozen yards braid. Double Skirts. Although the plaited skirt to promised a revival, numbers of the new Paris model suits have still skirts which, although rather tight at the ankles, are ample enough round thfe hips and knees. There are ways of giving spring to theBe gowns, which prevent them from developing intc anything which is likely to recatr the hobble. In some cases the seam is lefi open at the foot In modified dlrectoire fashion, while a still better expedient is that of the two skirts, orfe above the other, and both of which have one open seam in a different place, so that plenty of freedom is gained in thU manner, the skirt remaining, however narrow in appearance and the opening unnotlceable.

MACHINE, NOT A GIRL Rosy Hears That Her Sweetheart Is Crazy About a Typewriter. 3y MILDRED HOUSTON HEMINGWAY. "Then you do love me," he whispered, as he hfcdd her in his arms and tried to reach her lips with his. Rosy made no audible reply, hut gave a little sigh of satisfaction .and cuddled closer in the encircling arms. "You'll never let anything come between us?" he pleaded, this time succeeding in turning the pretty face to his, and preventing any reply by covering the little mouth. At last, however, Hugh managed to gain from the bashful young girl her confession of love, and then the two began planning for an early marriage. This was Tuesday night. Wednesday morning a cloud arose on the horizon of their love. Rosy was singing at her work around the house, when Kathryn Steward ran up the steps. Kathryn had been married three months, and Rosy was extremely anxious to confide her engagement to her friend, so she ran to open the door. Before their greetings were fairly over she began to pave the way for her confession. " "Hugh was here last night," she smiled. "Hugh who?" Kathryn asked, although she knew as well as Rosy. "Hugh Howard." "Well, what of it?" Kathryn asked, going over to the mantel and arranging her hair before the glass. "Why, I—well—he was here," Rosy faltered. Kathryn turned. "You don't mean to say that you are interested in him?" she said. There was real concern in her voice. "What makes you say that?" Rosy cried, her eyes filling with tears. Kathryn forgot her hair, and took her frieml in her arms. "I'll tell you," she said, softly. "Rich knows Hugh very well indeed, and he told me the other night that he was crazy about a typewriter. Those were his very words. Said he could talk of nothing but that typewriter, and you aren't a typewriter, are you?** and Kathryn kissed her little friend. Poor little Rosy began to cry. Perhaps, if left to herself, she might have sent for Hugh and asked for an ex- • , i , » ' v. rtlown front and nearly to foot.

Kathryn Asked planation, but under Kathryn's persuasive direction she wrote him the following note: "I am going tb ask you to forget what happened last night, to treat It as though It never occurred. Do not try to see me, for I never want to meet you again. Rose Parsons." "And now you are coming to our summer cottage with me," Kathryn caid decidedly, and before Rosy recovered her breath, Kathryn had explained to Mrs. Parsons, packed Rosy's suit case, and borne her away. As the cruel letter slipped from her Hngers into the mail box Rosy gave a little sob, and might have written another to recall it, if she had not accidentally come across Hugh on the way to the depot. He did not see her as he was walking beside a remarkably pretty girl, and the two were laughing and talking in an animated manner, although there was nothing ToveTlIko In their attitude.—Still, to Rosy, thi3 was proof positive of his perfidy. Just as Hugh was thinking with joyful anticipation of the evening, he reco'ved Rosy's letter, and could scarcely believe his eyes as he read the few words her epistle contained. "Well, of all things!" he said a t '.ast, drawing a deep breath. , -'"' If ho had been like sjMrto men, he might have retlred^tnto a sulky silence, and pride- would have reared a wall as high as heaven between the two,^>ut Hugh was made of different .material. Instead of visiting Rosy, friead," Hugh cried, more bewildered than ever. "It was something she told RQBV," Mrs. Paraons insisted, and Hugh left the house trying to puzzle out what the trouble could be. Then he went to Richard Steward; and asked him if he knew anything about the matter. "I haven't the remotest idea," that young gentleman returned, and then added: "Come up with me Saturday, and ask Rosy for yourself. We'll say nothing to the girls about your coming, and take them by surprise." In the meanwhile RoBy was anything but a pleasant companion to her hostess, for if the truth be told, she sulked and cried nearly all the time, and Kathryn began to nvlsh Bhe had left her friend in ignorance of what she had found out. On Saturday the two went over to the station to met Richard, and Rosy felt her rebellious heart give a throb of joy when she saw Hugh with her host, although she protended to be very angry, and would not speak to him. They all climbed into the boat which was to take them to the Stewart cottage, and then Hugh asked quietly: "What did you tell Rosy about me, Kathryn?" Kathryn's face grew a little redder than it had been since she first saw Hugh with her husband, but she said stoutly: "I just told her you were crazy about a typewriter. I think you ought to be ashamed of yourself, Hugh." Hugh and Richard looked at each other, and then burst into a roar of laughter, while the two girls looked furious. "So I am," Hugh said at laBt, "but it is a machine, not a girl. I'm going to have the agency for it, and that is one reason I can think/ of getting married at this time." Richard and Kathryn effaced themselves as soon as their guests reached land, and Rosy made up for her willingness to believe evil, although she did ask meekly after a time: "Who was that I saw you with the other day when we were coming to the depot?" "Why, the girl who gives demonstrations on the typewriter. She taught me how to get a high rate of speed from the machines so I could show them to better advantage." Rosy looked up at him with a littie- shame-faced smile, and then burled her face tearfully but happily oh his shoulder. (Ctpyrfgtit.. 19T2; by W. Q. Chapman.) FIRST SHOTS AT A CARIBOU J. "F. 8tudley Fired Seven Times in Val* Because He Had "Buck Ague* What the "buck, ague** fa- like Is described in "The Journal of a Sporting Nomad," by J. T. STudley. The author's- first attempt against the caribou resulted in humiliation. He tells that Johnny, Ms Indian guide, suddenly dropped like a stone into the wet grass and muttered "Stag," and there, sure enough, strolling a*ong the front, was a fine caribouv "I sat down, resting my elbow on my knee, waiting until he should put in an appearance on my side of the rock. I had the riflo to my shoulder and, at last the grand beast walked into view, not more than 100 yards away. He stopped, looking about himv and T drew a bead on his shoulder. Useless! The rifle wabbled all over the place, and for the JTfe of me I coTrfd not keep it still, nor hold my breath. My heart was in my mouth and all the time the rifle trembled and shook. The cr^lbou moved on a few paces and I deterntfjxed that If 1 meant to shoot at all r must obtain better control of my nerves. I still covered him with the sights, or thought I w a s doing so, as r pulled the trigger on the beast that was standing broadside on, with his head turned from me. "I was using a 500 Winchester Express, and it was the work of an instant to pump another cartridge into the chamber and fire again. Still no move ^on the part of my target. He faced the other way nonchalantly, listening with Interest to the echo of the rifle in the distant canyons. I was getting desperate now and could hear the Micmac muttering all sorts of imprecations behind my back, which only made things worse. I fired five more shots at that caribou as he stood as though carved 1n wood, persevere ing until ho turned off calmly Into a belt of timber. "This story is an absolute fact. 1 would not have credited it had I not boon the one to make such a fool of myEclf. My feelings can be more readily Imagined than described—1 could havo cried with vexation and shame.

Indeed, it has been said that the majority of suicixJes are those of children, and experts &eem inclined to connect the grisly epidemic with the educational system. That "the weak must go to the walir' has become an axiom that has been extended to the schools, and the undeveloped mind of the child seeks- reftetf in suicide from the discouragement of failure. * It would ho interesting to know if any of the so*caHcd heathen countries of t h ^ worlti have ever experienced such a horrid social phe-twimtma as that ot child suicide.

HANDS BURNING, ITCHING 905 Lowell Place, Chicago, 111.— "The trouble began by my hands burning and itching and I rubbed and scratched thera till one day I saw little red sores coming out. My hands were disfigured and swollen, and troubled me so that I could not sleep. They were cracked and when the small sores broke a white matter would come out. I could not do any hard work; If I did the sores would come out worse. For two years nobody could cure my eczema, until one day I thought I would try the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I used warm water with the Cuticura Soap and after that I put the Cuticura Ointment on my hands twice a day for about five or six months when V was cured. (Signed) Sam Marcus, Nov. 28, 1911.

In response to a query for building a silo 12x28, about 24 feet above, ground, Hoard's Dairyman makes the following reply: One-half inch lumber will give fully as good, If not better, service than inch lumber. The accompanying illustration showB how the inside sheeting and beveled lath and cement are used in a silo of this kind. The 2x4's may be set on the foundation 16 inches from center to center. We like the beveled lath as suggested in the drawing, for it adds strength to the silo. BREEDING STOCK FOR DAIM In Selecting Cattle Real Test Must Be Scales and Babcock Test—Conformation of Cow. End View. We know of some instances where common lath has been used, but it seems to us better to use the lath made from one-half-inch material. The 2x4's will not need any sort of iron hoops. The inside sheeting and the beveled lath are strong enough to resiBt all lateral pressure. If inch lumber is used and lath as suggested, It would be well to put oh the outside some wooden hoops three feet apart. These hoops may be nailed to the 2x4s. The capacity of the silo is sufficient for 15 milk cows. We believe that a Bilo 11 feet in diameter and 30 to 32 feet high would bo almost better to construct, for it is necessary to remove about one and one-half to two Inches of silage per day, especially in summer, if it is to be kept in good condition. ROOT CROPS FOR DAIRY COW Make Valuable Addition to Winter Rations Beoause They Add to Variety of Feed. No matter what some people tell you, turnips and other roots make fine milk producing feed. Turnips will not affect the flavor of milk If fed at the right time. If turnips are fed in large quantities and two or three hours before milking, they are likely to give the milk an unpleasant taste, but if fed directly after milking no flavor whatever will be noticed. A peck of turnips to each animal per day is sufficient in most cases. A good plan is to feed/directly after hay in the early morning, and once a day is often enough. A little salt scattered over the turnips, which should be chopped in quarters or smaller, add to their palatability. Roots make very valuable addition to the winter ration because they add to the variety of the feed and no animal on the farm appreciates variety more than the dairy cofw. In Wisconsin, Iowa and other western dairy states the root crop is becoming a very Important part of. the crop of the farm. CONVENIENT CART FOR MILK Two Buggy Wheels and Axle Used In Its Construction—Handy for Carrying Fertilizer. I saw a home-made cart, made from the two wheels and an old axle of a buggy, says a writer in the Rural New A Handy Milk Cart. Yorker. It was used to wheel three cans of milk and feed or fertilisers around farm or barn. The illustration shows how it was made. Professor W. J. Kennedy of the Iowa station recommends the following in reference to the selection ot breeding stock tor the dairy: In selecting dairy cattle the real test must be the scales and the liabcock teater. The cow is a machine to convert food into milk, thus she must have a large middle and a strong constitution to insure the best results. She must also have a large udder, large milk wells, large crooked milk veins and good sized teats. Her head should be clean and angular in appearance, with the eyes standing out prominently. The neck should be rather long and lean in appearance. The shoulders pointed, and the backbone rather prominent. The skin should be loose and Boft to the touch. In selecting herd bulls, either mature animals which have already demonstrated their worth as Bires, or younger* animalB from high testing dams and sires only should be used. The best and surest results will always follow the use of a mature sire which has sired heifers with good records. A good dairy bull Bhould be kept until he is 12 or 15 years old, in fact as long as he is a sure sire. Real good sires are so rare that when we do And one, he should die only of old age. All breeders of dairy cattle should secure yearly tests on each and every cow in the herd. Shorter tests do not really mean very much. It Is the cow that stays by her job that it really valuable, MILKING MACHINE IS HANDY Operation Performed by Compression In Device Recently Invented by Wisonsin Man. MICHIGAN HAPPENINGS The Scientific American in describ ing a milking machine, recently invented by O. C. Sibilsky of Algoma: Wis., says: The invention pictured in the illustration in actual use, provides a machine which will cauBe the milking operation to be performed by compression rather than by suction"or stripping; provided a device detachable so as to accommodate it for use in connection with different Bize cows 01 Milking Machine. those having different size udders; provides an actuator for the milkei which is adjustable in acordance witb the size of the teats; and provide a milking machine in which the compression cups are formed and oper ated so as to simulate the form and operation of a person's hand in hand milking.

Beef is high, but butter and cream are higher. Silage may be fed the day after the silo is filled. Thoughtful dairymen will keep up the milk'flow this fall. Back of many a shortage in the dairy business 1B a poor sire. Separating cold milk means that some cream will remain in the skimmilk. Dirty calf pails are one sign that the calves are not getting care enough, If the hired man is careful with the cows a few of his faults may be overlooked. To get rich milk is possible for the average farmer, but It must be through breeding. To get top prices for farm crops, try selling them to the dairy cow or the shoat. A good many cow stables resemble hotels. They have both "roomers" and "boarders." Shade, water and good grass are three essentials for profitable milk production. If the cream is still warm after separating, don't put the lid on the can down tight. Letting the calf run with a hard milker has been found to help matters in many cases. If a farmer, will keep a poor hired man out of sympathy for him, what kind of cows must he keep. The man who leaves his cows out these cool nights will have less manure to haul out. Likewise less milk. It Is highly important to feed producing cows some concentrated feed? in connection' with pasturage and roughage.

This appeal says: "Though this appeal is addressed above all to Greeks, at home and abroad, the central committee will be deeply grateful lor any help which may come from those, of whatever nation, who feel un interest in the classic land of Greece, and for those who realize that the Greek soldier in this struggle is not fighting for his country alone, but for the Christian faith and for the cause of progress and of enlightened civilization." Flint.—Roy Mead of Clio, occupies a cell in the county jail with a charge of attempted murder opposite his name on the blotter.

But dropping the peanut glory and coming to a golden memory, the former denizen of a village will remember how the dry goods stores would always put their empty boxes on the sidewalk, ou which men would Bit, whittle, chew tobacco and talk politics. Those were great tobacco chewing and spitting days, and politics chimed in happily with them. September and October were the best months for whittling up dry goods boxes and settling national affairs, and those were the days, too, of the peanut and plug tobacco— not the scrap stuff that ruins people nowadays, but real old Virginia plug, that was full of politics.

There was a_time when the wholesome teachings of our mothers had an Influence, when the home Influence was felt after the fledglings had Jeft the nest, and there are still some that are considered by many as "oldfashioned" who believe as our revered parents did, Bays the Washington Herald. Granting that a woman has the same rights as a man, that they can do the same things as man, can smoke, take a cocktail, ride a horse astride, and Buch things that were once considered as purely in man's province, yet the doing of these things have a tendency to bring the good woman down to the level of the company she Is in, to make the telling of a risque story in mixed company a com man matter. We discuss eugenics with our children; they are allowed to read almost any noyel they can get their hands on, and are allowed liberties former generations were strangers to. A return to the "old-faBhloned" ideas of our mothers, to the time when the conventionalities were observed, might bo looked upon as a step backward by tho fast sot of today, but to the thinking man or woman who still believes In tho sanctity •of the homo and home life it would help to establish a purity that is sadly lacking In many families In this the twentieth century. Many persons are of the opinion t h a t the wireless system of communication Is particularly subject to tapping, but, according to the Scientific American, no telegraph system la absolutely secret. Any one familiar •with the Morse code can read ordinary messages entering any telegraph office. At Poldhu, on a telephone connected to a long horizontal wire, the messages passing on a government telegraph line a quarter of a mile away can be distinctly read. It has been shown that it is possible to pick,up at a distance, on another circuit, conversation which may be passing through a telephone or telegraph wire. Oa one occasion an investigator was able to interfere, for a distance, with the working of the ordinary telephones in Liverpool. A s k More T h a n $1,200,000. Secretary Murray, of the_state board of corrections and charities, iuB made his report to Gov. Osborn. — Institutions required to submit estimates of appropriations to the board for approval will ask $1,081,452.28 from the next legislature tor special purposes, Many of the items included were before the last legislature. lu addition to the amounts asked for special purposes, eight of the institutions will ask for |t>li9,0y» £or current expenses. Several ask for money for new buildings with which to house inmates, the demand for quarters having outgrown their facilities. The board recommends several innovations in the laws. It wants authority to inspect city and village jails and house of detention; to ciose jails and infirmaries which are found unfit, upon the approval of the governor or a justice of the supreme court; provide for the licensing by the board of maternity hospitals and private incorporated institutions. The board suggests that legislation be enacted providing for the purchase of lands for colonies of epileptics as well as for colonies for inebriates, and urges that the sheriffs of all counties should be placed Tinder the salary system.

Sugar B a r r e l ! May Clear Up M y s t e r y . An _election mystery in Kalamazoo county may be cleared up by the canvassers,- w-hen they......are. given, a chance to inspect a sugar barrel that was used in Climax township as a repository for votes. With several candidates showing dispositions to asK for an official recount, the county canvassers at a loss to explain the discrepancy that is reported at Climax. The poll lists of that township show that 319 people voted there, while the returns total but 278 ballots, a discrepancy of 41. This number of votos if accounted for, might make a great difference in the result of two or th-ee contests, where the winners carried the county by less than 40 plurality. STATE BRIEFS. The first arrival in New York of apecimens of the tsetse fly of the Congo was noted the other day. The flies were dead and preserved in a bottle of alcohol in the possession of A. H. Hale, who was a passenger on the Bteamshlp Finland. They will be available for examination by medical scientists who desire to study them at close range.

Recent students of the stable fly, which is under suspicion in this country, have *n!d that it more nearly resembles the tsetse fly than any other American representative of the fly family. T h e specimens which Mr. Hale has Draught into the country will enable comparisons to put this opinion to the t e s t A man in Berlin advertises for a wife with a wooden leg.

Acting under direction of Postmaster General Hitchcock, postofftce inspectors and United StateB marshals in 72 leading cities of the country began practically simultaneous raids for the arrest of 173 persons charged with using the mails to promote criminal medical practices or the sale of drugs and instruments used for illegal purposes. The arrests are made for misuse of the mails, each case being based on the use of the mails to solicit business or dispose of wares. The concerted official action covered the United States from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the lakeB to the gulf. Many of the persons to be arrested are prominent commercially and socially;- in -their--communities. Some are .leading phv.siciansi__pthers are rich and influential busines men; yet others are men who live by their wits and are comparatively littleknown without their own small coterie of associates; and one is a Chinaman, who is alleged to have practiced his calling on women of his own race and upon those of the lower strata of society. All the arrests are to be made for alleged violation of section 211 of the penal code of the United States, which bars from the mails any vile or obscene matter, whether sealed or unsealed; any advertisement, letter or circular proposing or suggesting criminal practices; or any packet containing any substance, drug or thing intended to be used for immoral or unlawful purposes.

Only a single ballot that was taken by the jury in the trial of the four g-unmen for the murder of Herman Rosenthal immediately upon retiring to consider the verdict was necessary for the jury to bring in a verdict of murder in the first degree against all four defendants, Frank Cirofici (Dago Fran), Louis Rosenberg (Lefty Louie), and Harry Horowitx (Gyp the Blood). The verdict was arrived at, according to the oldest court officers, with a speed unprecedented in the history of first degree convictions in the county. Also the conviction was unique in that it was the first tme four men have been convicted of murder in the county and, so far as could be learned in the state. Like Charles W. Becker, the police lieutenant convicted as the instigator of the gambler's murder and sentenced to death, the gunmen heard the verdict pronounced against them without show of emotion. They stood at the bar looking straight ahead as the foreman of the jury rose to make known the result of its deliberation and they continued to stare stolidly in front of them unil the formalities of the proceedings were concluded.

Robert Cameron, capitalist, consults Philip Clyde, newspaper publisher, regarding anonymous threatening letters he nas received. The first promises a sample of the writer's power on a certain day. On that day the head Is mysteriously cut from u portrait nf Cameron while the latter is In the room. ..... ^. _• CHAPTER I I . Rifle Shots Echo In the Woods. Of conveying even a tithe of the horror I experienced at Cameron's disclosure I am nigh hopeless. The more we discussed the occurrence the less susceptible it seemed of explanation. And what is so terrifying as the Inexplicable, or so dreadful as the intangible? Here, apparently, was an enemy of calm and cunning malignity, who chose to manifest his power in a manner almost ludicrously puerile— save as it pointed with significant finger to some dire and inevitable sequel —yet-with such crafty secrecy as conu pletely to mystify and dismay. Cameron showed me the mutilated portrait. He had taken it down almost immediately; and had hidden it away in a closet of the hall behind an array of raincoats. The cutting had been done, evidently, with an exceedingly keen blade, and very dexterously done. But that it should have been accomplished in twelve minutes, while Cameron sat in the room, not fifteen feet distant, was beyond our comprehension. Absorption in his book was the nearest we came to a solution, and that was Scarcely tenable. For there was the crowded top of the bookshelves. To cut the canvas, the vandal must either have stood upon that or have reared a ladder. There was not room for the foot of a child on the shelf-top; and as for the ladder, it was unthinkable. How could a ladder have been carried in and out without Cameron being conscious of it? From every possible angle we viewed the incident, making every conceivable concession, and no half-way plausible answer to the riddle presented Itself. And though our common-sense told us that the time of miracles was long past, that no Gyges' ring nor Alberich's cloak survived to this day to make invisible their wearers, there persisted, nevertheless, a chill, uncanny sense of the supernatural, qulte( evident to me in Cameron's hushed voice and furtive manner, and in my own unwonted nervous disquietude. We sat very late. I wished, if possible, to learn if at any time in my friend's life he had done aught to engender an enmity to which these strange developments could be traced —whether, for instance, in the hot blood of his youth in some far land he had provoked the vengeance of one whose humor it is never to forget. As we talked I came to know Cameron better than I had ever known him before. He bared to me much of his early career; he gave me a' clearer view of his temperamental qualities; and yet I could not but feel that he left the vital point untouched, that beneath his seeming frankness there lay hidden, shielded, some/ one episode, perhaps, which might fertile light In upon our darkless. F o r ^ n y question was evaded rather than answered. Presently, Ve went back to the letters and dissected them, coldly and critically, sentence by sentence, and while the weird influence which t h e * hid exerted upon me at the first reading Increased, stimulated possibly by the incident of the portrait, still we reached a certain practical, commonsense view as to their origin; for we came to see in them what we believed to be the hand of a religious fanatic. Certain expressions, we concluded, were quotations. If they were not Biblical, they were certainly of sacred genesis., And the discovery was not reassuring. It lent, indeed, an added prick to the perturbation we already experienced. Nor did the absence of a specified date for the second promised demonstration of power tend to relieve our uneasiness. In this silence we found the acme of cunning cruelty. Any day, at any hour, some other mystifying, soul-torturing incident was liable to occur. I tried to argde that the seventh day was implied, inasmuch as the second note was received on the same day of the month as the first, and was a mere continuation of the original threat. But my contention lacked the intrinsic strength which carries conviction. and, as Cameron put it, we could only "watch and wait;" for the communications offered no alternative. They made no demand which being complied with would avert penalty. Only implacable and inevitable retribution, calm/ patient, and determined, effused from every line. ^Batw in spite of Cameron's evident ^depth of the wood, to the left of me amxlety—and in using that term 1 very mildly stating his obvious tio* of mind—he sternly refuse* cpMtrtt either the police or the print* [ detectives.

No, Clyde, whatever is done, must be done by ourselves, and by friends whom we can trust absolutely. I can take no risk of this horrid thing getting into the newspapers. BesideB," he added, with a kindly, considerative Bmile, "Evelyn must be kept In ignorance. Not for worlds would I have her troubled by our perplexing enigma." My suggestion that he should go abroad for a time, or at least spend a few weeks at Newport, was met with similar obstinate refusal. "I admit that I have been somewhat upset by this extraordinary combination," was the way he expressed it, "but 1 am not a coward. I am not going to run. Even if I were inclined to do so, what should I gain? If a man be not safe in his own house, where in Heaven's name is he likely to find safety?" ^ Quite naturally I was led by this expression to inquire whether, ""p~eT=" chance, he mistrusted any ef the many persons who were employed in the house and about the estate. But, somewhat to my surprise, he was almost gravely offended by the mere suggestion. Nevertheless there were several features of the affair, chief of them the manner in which the letters were received, which caused me to dwell with some mental persistence on this as the most profitable ground for speculation. And .when at length, in the morning's small hours, I returned to my home and to my bed, I carried the thought with me. The sowing of this seed in the subconscious garden of my mind brought forth fruit after its kind. I awoke with a perfectly clear understanding of how that which, the night before, had seemed so impossible of accomplishment was, perhaps, after all, merely a harlequin trick, quite simple when explained. With the new day, too, and the sunlight, and the cheery brightness of my own rooms, there came a lifting of that oppressive atmosphere of the esoteric which at Cameron's had set my nerves out of plumb and my reason on the bias. Indeed I was fully convinced that we had been foolishly constructing an Alpine chain out of a miserable little row of mole hills, and 1 determined to lose no time In bringing Cameron, whom I now regarded as most needlessly alarmed, to my own wholesome way of thinking. Directly after breakfast, therefore, I set forth on foot for my neighbor's, choosing the shore road as the more direct of the two routes. Personally, my taste in landscape is for distant view in preference to nearat- hand foliage. My own house, which is fashioned In semblance of a Pompeiian villa, its cream-white walls punctuated with shutters of a somewhat vivid pea-green and crowned by gently sloping roofs of the same bright color, gazes out across Stamford Harbor and the blue waters of the Sound, to where on clear days the pencilled outline of Eaton's Neck shows purple in the distance. There are no towering, umbrageous trees to interrupt the outlook; only low, carefully- trimmed shrubs, adorning a series of marble sculpture-dotted terraces, well below the line of vision. But the Cameron place, reflecting the Townsbury penchant for arboriculture, is quite the reverse. The prospect from the windows and verandahs of the fine old mansion is all green vistas and leafy perspectives, with pnly a glint of sun-sparkled waves, chancecaught between gray boles or when the wind spreads a momentary opening in the foliage. My way to Cameron'B led through a veritable forest of such luxuriant leafage that the path more than half the time was in twilight, while to right and left the shadows deepened into dark in the cloistral recesses of the woodland heart. The silence was profound. No voice of bird nor scurrying foot of squirrel invaded t h e morning hush of those ramous depths. My own footsteps on the soft turf returned no sound. A half-mile or more I had walked in this mute greenwood peace,- when sharp and clear there echoed through the verdurous aisles the crack of a rifle, and I came to a sudden, involuntary halt.'. Then it occurred to me that it was the third day of the open season for rail birds, and that It was the report of a shot-gun I had heard, fired by some sportsman, off on the shore, there, to my right. And so I resumed my tramp, with ears keen for a repetition. Almost immediately I was rewarded, and then I knew that it was no rail bird gunner, for the shot was unmistakably a rifle shot, and it 4aa fired in the Ttirm times more I heard it, in fair- 4sy rapM' succession, and sounding alf # t j s from about the same direction. I say that it gave me any unbut it perplexed me in a mild rYou may not know," he e x p l a i n ^ ] <rs>jy awmatag a passing cariosity as And then, I tarns out Will-kept, gravelled drive ths closs-croppsd, T«1 lawn* and catching sight of Cameron himself, in riding breeches and puttees, romping with one of his picturesquely graceful Russian wolf-hounds, promptly forgot all about it. He came across the sward to meet me, the great, gaunt white hound pressing close to his side, and I thought 1 saw that he, too, had experienced the inspiriting influence of the morning. "I have found an answer," I cried, while he was still fifty yards away, "possibly the answer." He raised his brows in question, and the hound, with open jaws, fondled his wrist. "I had a horseback ride before breakfast," he told me, as he shook my hand. "Then I spent an hour at the kennels. We've a fine new brood of collie puppies. You must see them." "I want to," I returned. "What do you say to tennis?" he suggested, Irrelevantly. "Just a set. It's a fine morning for tennis." "If you can lend me a pair of shoes,*' I consented, glaring down at my boots. "A dozen pairs," he smiled. "Come up to my dressing room. Louis will fit you out." I was scarcely prepnred for this change in my friend's mood, and far from happy over it. He was evidently determined to ignore the subject that had so engrossed us the night before, hoping to find surcease of harassing thought in a restless round of activities. The condition was a morbid* one which I believed should be discouraged; the more so as I possessed what I fancied was a perfectly practical solution of that which hitherto had seemed to us an inexplicable phenomenon. And I was a little annoyed, too, that my good tidings should be thus disregarded. When, therefore, w« had entered the hall and Cameron was leading towards the broad, ascending staircase, I paused. "Do you mind giving me just a minute?" He stopped, turned, and stood in questioning silence. "A minute in your study," I added, in explanation. Reluctantly, it seemed to me, he crossed to the study door, and throwing it open, Btood aside that I might precede him. The room appeared far less grim and gloomy than when I had last entered it. Its windows faced the south; and between the olive-green tapestry curtains the sun poured in a flood, lighting up the far corners, glinting on the gilt ornaments of the writing table, and bathing in dazzling splendor the burnished bronzes on the crowded top of the book-shelves. "I see you are not disposed to resume our discussion of last night," I began, when Cameron, having closed the door behind him, halted just inside, and with hands in pockets, awaited my opening. "But I want to show you that we have been in very much the same position as the wondering children who watch the presttdigltateur. We hare imagined something amazingly like a miracle, which, in point of fact, is capable of a very simple, commonplace explanation." "You mean the cutting out of the head of the portrait?" he asked, with kindling Interest. "I do." "You have discovered how it was done, before my eyes, so to speak, and y e t ~ ? " "I have discovered how it may have been done," I interrupted. He moved his head juBt perceptibly from side to side in skeptical gesture. "The door of this room is seldom locked?" I queried, ignoring the indicated skepticism. "Never locked," he answered. "It would be quite possible for any one, knowing that you were abBent, to spend an hour or so here, uninterrupted?" "Any one?" he questioned. "Any one who had gained entrance to the house," I amplified. "Oh, yes, I ^r^esume so." "They would have ample time to clear a space on the book-shelves, climb up, and carefully cut out the head, or any part, or the whole of* a portrait, if they were so inclined?" I paused for his answer, but he only smiled with a sort of incredulous tolerance. "Would they not?" I insisted. But Cameron was most perverse this morning. "My dear Clyde," he scoffed, "of what use is all this? The portrait was cut, not while 1 was absent, but while I was present. I saw it complete at three o'clock; at twelve .minutes past three, it was mutilated." "My contention is," I explained, quite patiently, "that while you saw it complete at three o'clock, the cut had already been made, but the cut portion had not been removed. In rthar words, the cutting having been deftly done with a thin, sharp knife, it was perfectly feasible to leave ths porrait apparently intact,, though witb be slightest effort ths Incised portion onld sntatxtoantly be released—with, ay, a pises of cord, ghted to tbs back /or tost sspsdal purpose." Now that I had made myself clear, Cameron was quick to acknowledge the possibility of such a method. "And the cord, you mean, led down behind the book-shelves, and perhaps through a window?" he suggested. "Precisely*And was pulled by some one on the outside." "Yes," he said, thoughtfully. "Such an explanation 1s not unreasonable. The thing, really, must have been done in some such way." "And don't you see," I hurried on with my advantage, "how utterly cheap this makes the whole affair? There's nothing, at all impressive in that performance when you find out how it was done. If the next demonstration is no better than such claptrap, you may rest assured you have a very picayunish sort of mountebank villain to deal with. So, cjeer up, my dear man, and I'll shov#you a few tricks at tennis that may be equally eye-opening.-' Unquestionably my friend appeared relieved. But I came to fancy later that the appearance was feigned for my benefit. Certainly he was not convinced, and in that proved himself possessed of an intuition, a world more accurate than my own. CHAPTER I I I . The Target. The set at tennis having finished with victory perching on my banners, I made excuse to put off the inspection of the collie puppies until another time, resumed my walking boots and, with a parting if futile admonition to Cameron to "think no more about it," started on my homeward way. My route lay again through the miniature forest, for the day had Waxed uncomfortably warm with the approach of noon, and there was scant Shade on the high-road between our two houses. In the wood, however, the air was gratefully cool, and I strode on at a good pace, breathing deeply and with enjoyment the bosky odors which greeted me afresh at every step. The dead silence which I had remarked earlier was broken now by the hoarse tooting of a steamboat whistle, somewhere off shore, and by the shrill voices of birds, apparently In resentful protest at this raucous invasion of their sylvan quiet. I had succeeded in putting aside, for the moment at least, all thought of Cameron, his anonymous letters, and his mutilated portrait, and was dwelling on my disappointment at not having caught even so much as a glimpse of Evelyn Grayson during my morning visit lo Cragholt. It is true that I had gone there with a single purpose in mind—to convey to Cameron what I believed to be an Important theory— but underlying this, I realized now, was more than a hope, a confidence even, that. I should sen Evelyn. 1 was tempted, indeed, to a regret, that. I had not waited, visited the kennels, and accepted Cameron's Invitation for luncheon, which would doubtless have insured me a few words at least with my Goddess of Youth. While on the verge of this self-reproach my spirits suddenly lifted, for the steam whistle having died away in the distance and the feathered choristers having relapsed Into a pleased chirp that merely accented the stillness, there broke all at once on the mute calm of the woodland the silver sweetness of a girl's singing. Clear and resonant It rang through the forest aisles; a voice I knew beyond mistaking. Evelyn Grayson was coming towards me over the Bcented turf, Still hidden by a bend in the path, the melody alone measured for me her approach. It was a French chanson she was lilting, a lyric of Baudelaire's, of which we were both fond. Sweet muslr swepp* m* like the sea Townrd my pnle star. Whether thf clouds be there or all the air o*» free, I sail afar. And then she came around the turn. At .first she di8 not sen me, for her eyes -were lifted with her voic<>, and I had time to mark the fascinating grace of her long, free stride, before she became conscious of my presence and checked and shortened it. She wore a frock of white serge, the skirt's edge at her ankles, revealing dainty, snowy buckskin ties and just a peep of white silk hose. And her flower-like face looked out through a frame of Leghorn straw and pink roses, tied snugly beneath her softly rounded chin with the filmiest of long, floating white veils. You can imagine the. picture she made, there in this green glade, with her big blue eyes alight with glad surprise, and the warm blood suddenly risen in her cheeks. "You truant!" I cried, in jocular reprimand. "Are you always going to run away when I visit Cragholt?" Obe pouted prettily. I detest a woman who pouts, ordinarily. There is usually such palpable affectation about I t But Evelyn's pouting was winsome as an infant's. Besides it was only momentary. Then bar eyss flashed and bar foot was planted vary hard, for such a tiny thing, on the green grasa blades. "I'm not a truant," she declared, with feigned indignation, "and I never thought of running away. That's Just your conceited manly imagination, You fancy that everything I do can have but one cause, and that is yourself. How, pray, was I to know you intended paying us a morning call?" "Tut, tut," I caught her up. "What a little spitfire we have here! If you hadn't deserted me so shamefully last evening, I shouldn't have minded this morning, so much. As it 1B, it seemB aeons since I saw you." Now she smiled until her dimples nestled. "That is much better," she returned, gayly, "and deserves a reply, Just as my action of last evening deserves praise, and not rebuke. I sacrificed myself and my pleasure for one I love." "Not for me, surely!" "Did I use thtr-word conceit a mom e n t a g o ? Are. you the- only ..man 1 love?" "I hope so," I answered, impudently. "There is another," she confessed! in monk tragedy. "Behold his face!" I had not noticed that she held a little roll in her hand, for my eyes had been ever on hers; so, when abruptly, she spread out and held before me the missing head from Cameron'B portrait, I was doubly unprepared. 1 know 1 was startled. She paid afterwards that I went very white. I suppose I did; for with the rush of realization came such a chain of supposition as to drive me momentarily dizzy. For a second or more I stood dumb, while my hand went out in eager reach for the scrap of canvas, which, I had observed, instantaneously, bore four perforations, all of a size—the Blze of a rifle bullet. With that discovery had recurred the shots I had heard; and following this, came a maze of conjecture, going back to that first letter, then to the painting's mutilation, and on through devious ways to the morning's target practice; and always with one or another of Cameron's trusted servants as the chief actor. When I recovered my composure I found Evelyn backing wilfully away from my covetous hand. "It is the picture of the man I love," she was saying, teasingly. "A very, very good man," "But where did you get it?" I asked seriously. "Do you know whore it came from?" Suddenly she was as grave aa I could wish. "I found It nailed to a tree," Rhe answered. "Wasn't it odd? Mow do you suppose It r'nrnc thrro? It looks like the portrait that, hung In Undo Robert's study. Do you suppose he srevv to dislike it, nnd cut it up and threw it away?" Now 1 found myself In some llttlo embarrassment. If I was to obey Cameron's injunction I could not tell Evelyn the truth. Yet I was in no position to make light, of her find. On the other hand I must learn from her just where she had come upon it, and so trace, If possible, the person who had fired the shotH which riddled it, "My dear girl," I said, adopting a tone of cajolery, "we have here, I think, a matter In which we both can be of service—very valuable service. Indeed, to that beloved uncle and guardian of yours. But, you must trust me, absolutely, and, for the present at least, you must give to him no hint of what we" have in hand. Do you understand?" She laughed in that merry rippling fashion which I had found not the least of her charms. "Do I understand?" she repeated, laying a hand on my arm in emphasia of her amused tolerance. "Do I understand? Of course I don't, and I shan't, until you have answered at least a half-dozen whys and whats." "Rut ypu must trust me," I insisted, "and as primary cvldrnce of that trust you will proceed at once to hand over to me, for examination, that, somewhat damaged piece fit portraiture which you are holding behind you." Very wide her eyes npenod in an Innocent, almost infantile stare, as she asked: "Do you really moan It, Philip?" "Really," I' answered, gravely. "I'd like to toll you all about it, right here and now, but that might spoil everything, so you must show what a strong womanly woman you are, by keeping silonce and waiting." In token of compliance she gave me the oval piece of canvas. "I wonder who punched the holes in it!" she remarked, ruefully. "Whoever It was, they were shockingly disrespectful." I tried to fancy what she would have said had she known they were bullet holes. Evidently that possibility bad not occurred to her and I was glad that it had not. (TO BE CONTINUED.) That is Unkind.

They were not cigars—not anything that one might expect to And in a cigar box; they were queer little rings and toys of thin beaten gold, rough green stones, dulled circles of goldenbrown amber. The man took them out of the box and held them in his hand. "El Dorado," he said softly, "El Dorado, after centuries. The gifts of the golden man. The treasure of the sacred lake." Out of the Indian legends of centuries ago, the wonder-tales of the Spaniards In the New World. the man with the cigar box explained, had come these strange bits of gold and precious stones. Modern enterprise is discovering the lost treasure of a South American superstition. The sac r e d lake of El Dorado, the water of Guatavlta into which Andean tribes threw their riches to appease their gods, haB been drained; here are some of Its treasures. Hartley Knowles, the man with the cigar box, is an English engineer who has made the excavations and has now brought some of the things t o America, He sayB himself that they are all exceedingly valuable as antiques, and, intrinsically, as gold and gems. One of the Americans t o whom Mr. Knowles has showed his treasures adds that the excavation of the sacred lake of the Andes brings with it a possibility that the excavator has apparently not thought of in discoveries as to the lives of prehistoric peoples and In civilization of prehistoric times. The story that lured a modern Englishman to South America, and Is interesting American collectors in South American discoveries, is the s a m e story that four and a half centuries ago called the Spanish adventurers to conquest In t h e unknown western world. It 1B the story of El Dorado. It Is a tale that moat of UB have heard long ago, and long ago forgotten. It is t h e legend of the holy lake. Upon the original story of the sacred lakes of t h e Chlbcha tribes in the northern part of South America innumerable myths have been built. The «arly tales themselves are well-nigh shrouded in xnyBtery and Bomewhat obscured by legend. Yet t h e story of El Dorado has Its historical foundation, and the tale of the sacred lake of Guatavlta, or Guatablta, Is accredited by historians to- <1ay. Much of the wonder-tale of El Dorado as t h e Spaniards and their followers built it on t h e first substructure Is probably untrue. But t h e story of the lake, BO far as historians have been able to ascertain, is a bit of real history— t h e tale of a people and their sacrifices, the record of wealth thrown away in a religious ceremonial as an offering to the gods, the true story of an ancient superstition. According to the legends told by travelers and t h e facts set down by historians, the Andean tribeB of the Chlbcha venerated the mountain lakes of their province, and into them threw t h e i r jewels. Great feasts and great fastings, the accessions of rulers, the celebration of a pllgirmage, the prayer for the tribe's good fortune— these were all accompanied by gifts of the nods; t h e gifts were thrown into the lake. Of these mountain lakes Guatavlta was the largest and moat important; here most of the feasts were beid, the; offerings made to the gods. And here «2cavators and engineers have gone from England with the latest dredges and engines and set u p modern apparatus to drain the lake. i The lake is drained now as nearly dry as the e&oavators dare to make it. Quantities of pott e t y , gold' and precious stones have been taken o u t . ' T h e excavations are still going on, and it If believe* that the discoveries have only begun. Vhrloua attempts have been made, in the last fijo* centuries, to find the treasure of Chlbcha p t e i ^ ; 1 h i » latest effort is proving successful. ' ft 'ttljmld lay that the gold and gems already tAkjjbV/rom the lake bottom amount to about ffioioi,V Mid Mr Knowles. "How much there • V l t f t ? shouldn't dare to gay. But I think that w * a r V J " * rasttbln* the most interesting part 4 f . e « r work a n d , p u r discovery. ' ft think that nrtart of what we have taken out « p "Cordate Is t r T » the sides of the lake. We C M - M i 3* i|HMilV»M to the t e t t o m . and we before we reach It. But, according to the stories, the bottom of the lake is where the richest treasures are." We have most of us heard in our childhood that t h e Spaniards of the sixteenth century dreamed of -El Dorado," the land of gold, and that they sougfit-for It in strange and savage and ever hopeful ways among strange and savage peoples. We have read how the lust of gold seized the adventurers of Spain, and they pressed into the wilderness and found and conquered more and more land without ever finding the land of gold. But, as a matter of fact, the Spanlsft-- explorers did find El Dorado.. Only El Dorado was not the land of gold; it was the golden man. And the treasure of the golden man's gift was not a treasure that could be found on the land; it lay at the bottom of a lake, and the Spaniards could not drain it. The story of the real El Dorado is the story of the religious festivals of the Chlbchas. The tribes of the Chlbchas, according to recent historians, occupied the plateau region of the northeastern province of Colombia, and were among the richest, the most magnificent, and the most enlightened of South American tribes. In their wealth, their barbaric splendor, and their handicrafts, they ranked with the Aztecs of Mexico and the Incas of Peru. Their land was rich in emeralds. Gold they procured in great quantities from their immediate neighbors. Rich textiles and dyed cotton stuffs, as well as the feathers of beautiful birds, added to the wealth and their magnificence. Amber they obtained from their neighbors, and apparently from the other side of the world they procured in some unknown manner some quantity of Jade. Savage, uncontrolled in their indulgence of the arts of pleasure that they had cultivated even more eagerly than the arts of war, they were yet a thoroughly religious people. Their helrarchy of gods and goddesses had passed beyond the simple worship of the forces of nature and Included definite deities with definite powers —deities to be propitiated. Occasionally they offered up human beings to their gods; often they sacrificed talking parrots to avert calamity. But for the most part they gave their possessions to their deities, and worshipped, with barbaric wealth of sacrifice, at the sacred lakes. There were five of these lakes in the district that we now know as Colombia—Guatavlta, Guasca, Siecha, Teusaca, and Uhaque; of the five, Guatavlta was by far the most important, Ubaque being its nearest rival. The people made pilgrimages to all the lakes, but to Guatavlta most of all, and with the richest gifts. And it was at the lake of Guatavlta that the great ceremony of the Chlbcha tribes took place—the Installation of the chief. Guatavlta was the most imnortant center of the Chlbchas, the religious "capital" of the tribe. The chief who came to his kingdom with sacrifices to the holy water of the plateau was an absolute monarch, whose power rested largely on the assumption that he was seml-dlvine. No subject dared look his leader in the face, but in the royal presence turned aside or assumed a stooping attitude. No messenger might approach the chief without bearing a gift, not to win the royal favor, but merely to do homage to the royal state. Over every detail of his subjects' lives he ruled, and if a man of Guatavita wished to alter the style of his dress he must ask his leader's permission and receive the new garment from the royal hand. In his "South American Archaeology" T. Athol Joyce of the British Museum describes the stato of the Zlpa of Bogota: "His garments were of the finest cotton, his throne was of gold studded with emeralds, and he traveled in a litter hung with golden plates. His headdress was of gold, and a golden crescent ornamented his brow; nose and ear ornaments were of the same material, and also the breastplate he wore upon his chest." For five years or more before a Chlbcha chief became his people's ruler he must remain In seclusion, preparatory to the great ceremony of the lake. At the end of his rigorous period of probation—for It was also a period of stern selfdenial— the chief's nose and ears were pierced for the ornaments of his rank, and he made golden offerings to the gods. Professor Joyce, who in his book describes tho ceremonies of the sacred lake as historically attested facta, quotes from the history of the conquest and discovery of New Granada, by Jam ftodrlgues Fresle, written in 1636: "Not only was the ceremonial of Guatavita par ticularly elaborate, but it gave rise to the stories of El Dorado which so fired the imagination of the early conquerors and gave such an impetus to the exploration of the interior. According to Presle, the population of the neighborhood repaired to the sacred lake of Guatavita clad In their finest ornaments of gold and feathers. Innumerable sacrificial fires were kindled on the banks, and the lake was encircled with a cloud of incense. The ruler-elect was divested of his garments, anointed with an adhesive earth, and powdered with gold dust. Attended by his four principal sub-chiefs he embarked upon a reed raft ornamented with gold dust and furnished with four braziers for incense; at his feet was piled a mound of gold and emeralds, and amid the shouts of the multitude and the sound of whistles and other instruments he proceeded to the middle of the lake. There he plunged into the waters and washed off the offerings of gold dust, and the gold and emeralds were thrown in at the same timer the four chiefs making offerings on their own account. The raft then returned and the proceedings terminated with the revelry arnd chlcha drinking so dear to the heart of the Colombians." The chief with his gold-dust coat was in reality "El Dorado," the golden man of Spanish legend and Indian history. Splendid as were the ceremonies attending the consecration of the tribal chief at Guatavita, or GUatabita, as Professor Joyce calls it, the national pilgrimages and feasts were still more important. TheBe pilgrimages were made periodically to all the chief lakes of the country. The northern Chlbcha honored Guatavita almost exclusively, while the southern tribes paid their religions homage at Ubaque, south of Bogota. While the chiefs and nobles were throwing their gold and jewels into the sacred waters, the common people were burying theirs by the' side of the lake or in secret places not far removed from the holy waters. Many curious bits of pottery have been recovered from the neighborhood of the lake of Guatavita. When Mr. Knowles came to America a short time ago he brought with him many of the treasures that he had taken from the sacred lake. Most of the pieces are small. Whatever may be their value as ancient pieces of handicraft, the emeralds are undoubtedly the richest "finds" in intrinsic worth. M. de la Kier of the Royal Institute of Paris is quoted as estimating the probable value of the articles in the lake at several million English pounds. But such estimates are, of course, guesses. The bottom of the lake has not yet been reached, and is still in a semi-liquid muddy state. It is believed that the articles taken out to date were thrown or buried in the sides of the lake and have been, in the ages since, carried toward the center by the pressure of the mud. The number of pottery vessels found seems to substantiate this view. The work done by Mr. Knowles' company— which is Incorporated in London under the name of "Contractors, Limited"—is but the final link in a long chain of explorations that stretches from the times of the Spaniards down to tho present day. In 1562 Antonio de Sepulveda of Santa Pe de Bogota lowered the waters of the lake to fifteen feet, or thereabout, and is said to have taken out great quantities of gold and an emerald of rare beauty. Sepulveda had made his attempt by digging a trench, and before the work could be finished the sides of the trench caved in, and the waters began to riee again. During the three centuries that followed several attempts to drain the lake, always by means of trenches cut from above, were made and failed. ~ In 1897 a small company of native engineers was formed and three years later sold out its rights to Hartley Knowles and his company. "I had read about the legends of the golden man." said Mr. Knowles. who stands sponsor for the foregoing history of the attempts to drain the lake, "and, being an engineer, I thought I Bhould like to have a try. I have been working at it for twelve years. The lake is drained as dry as I want It; if it is completely drained the mud at the bottom may solidify, and we do not want that. What we are after now is to dig down to what was the bottom of the lake 450 yeara ago The present bottom is, of course, a, sediment of years. The lake is cup-shaped. It la about 10,000 feet above sea level in the Colombian Andes. It took four yeara to drain the lake. Now we are excavating. "The government of Colombia has been moat kind In letting us make the excavations and take out the things^, Of course the interest that attaches to the treasure it for aniquadans museums and collectors."

On his feet were slippers, around hia form was a smoking jacket. A straight line drawn to the nearest object from him would have ended at the easy chair comfortably turned upward toward the electric lamp on the table. It was a chair that Githers had sat in after dinner for more evenings than he could count. "Why," he repeated, 'can't I go in there and read? What do you mean, mother?" Mrs. Githers approached him and picked a thread off his sleave. "Wouldn't you just as soon sit upstairs with me?" she asked brightly. "I'm going to sew." "What of it?" demanded her husband. 'Don't you usually sew downstairs hero? Don't we always sit downstairs? Why " "My goodness, John!" exclaimed his wife impatiently. "Wouldn't you like a change?" "Elmira," said Cithers, firmly, "you're hiding something—tell me at once!" "Simply nothing," said his wife.. "Only Grace is going to have a caller this evening and I wanted to let the child have the living room—oh, its one of the boys in her class and it's all right, so you needn't glare. She's seventeen and must have friends among the boys as other girls do. Not that she wouldn't just as soon have us there, but we'd embarrass them!"

Mrs. Githers got him nicely arranged in her room and as she reached for the mending basket she paused, hand in air. The front door had slammed and a vast whistling heralded the entrance of the son and heir of the household. Mrs. Githers went and leaned over the banisters. "Rob!" she called In dulcet tones. "Hullo!" came the inquiring answer. "Where are you? Where is everybody Who's sick?" "Come up," said his mother. "Wouldn't you like to sit up here with father and me?" she wheeled as he arrived at the door. "Here's a nice comfortable chair and—" "What's the matter with the living room?" he demanded in amazement. "Why—" Mrs. Githers sighed. "I never saw such stupid men folks!" she declared. "Why can't you do things without having them all explained. I'd like to know? Grace has a caller coming and—" "Whoopee-e-e!" shouted Grace's brother, making a dart for her door. "Who's your beau, si's? Who've you got a crush on—" "Mother!" came Grace's indignant voice. "Make Bob stop! I think he's perfectly horrid! I haven't got a' crush on anybody and you know it, Bob Githers, and I perfectly hate you, so there now!" "Children!" cried Mrs. Githers. "I'm surprised at both of you. Stop it at once!" "Well, I'd like a look at the chump who's so important that I'm barred out of my happy home," protested her son. "Gee! There isn't anything to do up here! I'm going out!" "No, please don't!" urged his distracted mother. "I'll read out loud to you and dad!" "Mother!" called her daughter, frantically. "Come and tell me how my hair looks." Left to themselves Githers and his son stared dismally at each other. "Some doings, eh?" queried young Githers. "Tommyrot, I call it! Will sis be doing this every night forever'n ever till she's married off? I'm going to move if she does!" "This chair," said his father irritably, "was built for a boa constrictor, not a man. And where are the matches?" Mrs. Githers came back and Grace floated downstairs. She played a piece on the piano exactly as though she expected no one and then she wolked about. The men folks fidgeted. Then the telephone rang. Presently Grace called dolefully upstairs: "Tom can't come! He's got an awful cold! Isn't thatvhor-r-id!'» Githers and his son reached the bottom of the stalrB simultaneously. "My but I'm sorry for Tom!" said Githers as he grabbed the easy chair.

Coffee and tea drinking being such an ancient and respectable form of habit, few realize that the drug—caffeine— contained in coffee and tea, 1» one of the principal causes of dyspepsia and nervous troubles. Without their usual portion of coffee or tea, the caffeine topers are nervous, irritable and fretful. That's the way with a-whisky drinker. H e has got to have hie dram "to settle his nerves"—habit ~ To leave off coffee or tea is an easy matter if you want to try it, because Postum gives a gentle . but natural support to the nerves and does not contain any drag—nothing but food. Physicians know this to be true* a s one from Ga. writes: "I have cured myself of a longstanding case of Nervous Dyspepsia by leaving off coffee and using Postum," says the doctor. "I also enjoy refreshing sleep, to which I've been an u t t e r stranger for 20 years. "In treating dyspepsia in its various types, I find little trouble when I can induce patients to quit coffee and adopt Postum." The Dr. is right and "there's a reason." Read the little hook, "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. Postum now comes in concentrated* powder form called Instant Postum. It is prepared by stirring a level tea* spoonful In a cup of hot water, adding sugar to taste, and enough cream t o bring the color to golden brown.

" HAIR CAME OUT IN BUNCHES 813 E. Second St., Muncie, Iud.—"My little girl had a bad breaking out on the scalp. It was little white lumps. The pimples would break out as large as a common pinhead all over her head. They would break and run yellow matter. She suffered nearly a year with itching and burning. It was sor© and itched all tho time. The matter that ran from her head was very thick. I did not comb her hair very often, her head was too sore to comb it, and when I did comb, it came out In bunches. Some nights her head itched BO bad she could not sleep. "I tried several different soaps and ointments, also patent medicine, but nothing could I get to stop it. I beganusing Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment this summer after I sent for the free samples. I used them and they did so much good I bought a cak© of Cuticura Soap and some Cuticura Ointment. I washed her head with Cuticura Soap and rubbed the Cuticura Ointment in th© scalp every two weeks. A week after I had washed her head three times you could not tell she ever had a breaking out on her head. Cuticura Soap and Ointment also mad© the hair grow beautifully."

Often before a sufferer realizes what the trouble is, he is on the verge of • complete nervous breakdown. It is of the utmost importance t o keep your nervous system in j?ood condition, as the nerves are the source of all bodily power. Mrs. A n n * Kounz, 2ir Mechanic St., Pueblo, Colo., says: "For many years I suffered from nervous prostration; I w a s unable to do any house work and doctors failed t o help me. Remedies I tried from druggists did n o t d o me a particle of good. A neighbor told m y husband about Dr. Miles' Nervine and he procured a bottle. After th« first few doses I showed a marked improvement and aiter taking two bottles I was entirely cured, 1 hav« been perfectly well for years *nd cannot praise Dr. Miles Nervine too highly." If you arc troubled with loss flf appetite, poor digestion, weaknesW> inability to sleep; if you are in "§?• general run down condition ana unable to bear your part of tht daily grind of life, you need something to strengthen your nerves. You may not realize what i9 the matter with you, but that is no reason why you should delay treatment.

The nu.nber of people in this country who are becoming addicted to the different phases of what is known as t h e drug habit iB so numerous as to excite alarm. Years ago the victims of drugs were confined to consumers of opium or morphine, says the Milwaukee Wisconsin. Now there is a considerable variety of habit-forming drugs, with cocaine at the head of the }ust. At first It was hailed for its usefulness as a local anesthetic. Now it is dreaded for the number of men and women who have fallen under its eway, and whom it reduces to a condition of moral Irresponsibility. Many —probably nearly all—of the victims of cocaine and other habit-forming drugs use them at first for medicine. They are prescribed by physicians to allay pain. The hideous evils that follow slavery to these drugs rarely are dreamed of by those who use them, until after their use has become a htbit, and then the damage is done— for drr • habits, once formed, are inconceivably difficult to break. These drugs shatter the nervous system and blunt the moral faculties and predispose their slaves to crime. No wonder that physicians and officials charged with the administration of the criminal.laws._are banding together to check the sale and use of these insidiousdestroyers of health and morals. FERDINAND FOLLOWING HIS ARMY As our manners improve, have our children as good manners as our fathers or grandfathers had? We do not mean by good manners what the newer term social etiquette implies. Among the so-called Bocial Bets we find changing codes which direct the form of handshaking, modes of expression In meeting people, repetition of useless "don't you knows" in conversation, ability to select from multiform knives, forks and spoons for t h e multiform courses at luncheon and dinner, says the Knoxvllle Journal and Times. We can detect no purpose In theBe flippant forms of fashion excepting as the knowledge is a badge of •fellowship. And there seems to be much Btrlving to get within the circle. But these mannerisms are not good manners. The essence of good manners is kindness and courtesy. They extend below the surface deep into the character. A person habitually polite is one who has transformed into conduct the habit of thinking of others. They are apostleB of good cheer, being unwilling to cause embarrassment or chagrin to either their social confreres or the lowliest person they meet. They pay the waiter for the privilege of being Berved at all, after paying the head waiter to get a table if the restaurant is full. They pay to have their hat and coat kept for them during the meal, pay for getting a taxicab, and after it Is over and pay ,the chauffeur for the privilege of riding home with him In a cab for which the company has had to pay the hotel license fee for the right to use the public streets, says the New York "World. Prom the time they enter a restaurant until after they have left It they are subjected to numerous direct taxes, in addition to the indirect taxes imposed for music and marble corridors, which are but ill-disguised in the exorbitant prices charged for the food. Why should not the Hotel association round out the system of petty extortion by charging for admission? If, as reported, the sultan of Turkey sent a bag of millet seed to the kins of Bulgaria to show his numerical strength, and the king of Bulgaria sent back a bag of pepper seeds to show the style of opposition, the incident typifies the struggle between quantity and Quality which has had but one result since the world began. Mere brute strength and number no longer count in the great contests of the world. The little Irish cow has proved a priM winner at the National Dairy Show in Chicago.

The new armistice will be general and will brinK about a cessation of hostilities throughout European Turkey. Final negotiations will be carried out on the same basis as that of the armistice. « (J rand Vivnier Klamil Pasha announced the armistice, but did not reveal the terms, lie intimated, however, that they were much better than the original terms imposed by Bulgaria on Turkey. May Pass "Blue Sky Law." A "blue sky law," adapted from a measure now in force in Kansas, will be presented in the Michigan legislature this winter. The bill, which is for ike purpose of protecting the investor from putting money in concerns organized for the principal purpose of belling stock, was favorably considered at the national convention of insurance commissioners at Spokane, Wash.,, last July. At the adjfl.urn.ed convention, which will be held in New ^ork next week, it will be refined and, to some extent, modified. It is proposed to introduce the measure in every legislature in the country through the insurance commissioners of the various states. C".

LABOR LEADERS ACQUITTED Justice Goff, in the criminal branch of the supreme, court, in New York, sentenced Whitey Lewis, Dago Frank, Lefty Louie and Gyp the Blood, the four gunmen convicted of the actual killing of Herman Rosenthal, gambler, to be electrocuted in Sing Sing prison during the week beginning Jan. G. Sheriff Julius Harburger preceded the quartet into court. He had on a long overcoat, with a big revolver in each pocket. From the time he entered the room until the door closed behind him as he followed the last of the four condemned men back to the Tombs, his grip never left the pistols. Hut there was no apparent need for the display, as nothing interfered with the proceedings. None of the men showed the slightest emotion. Dago Frank was the only one to say good bye to counsel, shaking hands with Wahle before he was led out of the court room. It iB expected that a formal notice of appeal, which will automatically act as a stay, will be filed within 10 days. Ettor, Giovannitti and Caruso Freed in Salem, Mass. Joseph J. Ettor and Arturo Giovannitti, leaders of the Industrial Workers of the World, and Joseph Caruso, tried in Salem, Mass., for the murder of Annie Lopizzo, a woolen operative, killed during the Lawrence, Mass., strike last Jar1 nary, were acquitted. According to the instructions to the jury neither Ettor nor Giovanniti could have been found guilty of murder in the first degr.ee. They were accused by the state of arousing a murderous frenzy by their speeches- which resulted in the mill woman's death. So intricate were the chief threads of the case that labor leaders who had been following it declared a verdict of guilty would have established a precedent which would make effective labor strikes in the future an impossibility. When the men heard the words freeing them from the charge, they embraced and kissed each other in the prisnoners' cage. An English woman left $500 in her will to another woman for smiling fleaaaatly at her aa they left church. Such a bequest does more for the sunshine habit than any amount of mere talk. Death's Toll of Deer Season Is 17, The hunting season which closed at midnight, tomorrow, has cost the lives of 17 hunters in northern Michigan and half a hundred hunters bodily injuries, one or two of whom may die. Fewer are reported killed this year than last, however, due to fewer hunterB in the woods, because of the lack of tracking snow until the last three days. Northern Michigan sportsmen want the season extended three or four months or longer, so- fewer hunters will go into the woods at once, and also have each hunter restricted to one deer. Legislate to protect human life as well as the game is the cry. Detroit Aldermen to Be Tried in Mt. Clemens. Circuit Judge James G. Tucker, of Mt.

Alleging frauds and irregularities of many kinds, Wayne county suffrage leaders Saturday morning filed application for a recount of the recent vote by which the county went about 12,000 against the constitutional amendment and thus apparently defeated the proposition in the state at large by a majority of about 700. According to the attorney general's ruling in the Saginaw case there is no statute distinctly providing for recount of constitutional amendments. He does not say that it can be done legally, but infers that courts will probably pass upon the matter. ^ J M B » ..society leader who proposes i#u& dog shall be eaten as a relief ffWA ttt« Wgb cost of meat, should te- 4ltt M i n example.

Telegraphic Communication Is Cut Off i n d Details of the Catastrophe Are Meager—Enormous Damage. That 15,000 people were killed and wounded in a Typhoon that swept the Philippine Islands was reported in cable dispatches to the bureau of insular affairb. News of the catastrophe came in a dispatch from the governor general of the Philippines. No figures of the dead or injured were given, but it was stated that probably half the population of two cities had been lost. The typhoon swept the Visayas Islands and is said to have practically destroyed '1 acloban, the capital of Leyte, on the northeast coast of the island, ana to have wrought enormous damage a n l loss of life at Capiz, the capital of the province of Capiz. Leyte has a population of 14,000. Capiz has a population T>t over 20,- \ 000._Capiz is the terminal of the rail road from Iloilo.It is a most import- j ant. sugar point. The dispatch containing information of the typhoon was sent Thursday. The governor general informed the department that he was rushing ? shipload of food and clothing and all available medical supplies to Tacloban. All telegraphic communication has been destroyed and it is impossible to get other Lhan vague reports of the extent of the destruction. That Tacloban has suffered an enormous loss of life is certain. The scene of the disaster is just ncrth of the destructive typhoon which swept the Cisayan Islands on Oct. 15, inflicting a heavy toll.

CHAPTER Ml—(Continued). "There are two ways of looking at It," I replied, my eyes fixed on the canvas and its perforations. "At first glance It does seem spiteful; but then there la a chance that it is not iconoclasm, after all. It may he, you know, just the reverse. I have not infrequently seen portraits that were so unjust to the originals that they fairly cried out for destruction." "But this is not one l i k e t h a t , " she retorted. "This seems to me a very good portrait. I am sure "Uncle Robert must have looked exactly like it, ten years ago." "Alas, we do not all. see with the same eyes," I assured her, smiling, "The destroyer may have looked on it as a caricature, not having your cultured taste in art." I held it off at arm's length, and after regarding it critically for a moment between halfclosed lids, I continued, "Do you think you could point out the identical tree to which it waB nailed?" "I could try," was her answer. "Is it far?" "Not very. A mile, from here, possibly. Over the ridge." "Near anything in particular?" "Near the trail which leads up from the trout stream to the entrance drive not far from the- Lodge.'* "When will you take me there?" I asked. For Just an instant she hesitated. "We might go now," she replied, "if it weren't that I am expecting Cella Alnslee for luncheon. Suppose we say five o'clock. You can meet me at the Lodge. It's a short walk from there." "Pine!" I approved, thrusting the portrait head beneath my arm and taking possession of both her whitegloved hands. Slender and shapely handB, yet wonderfully capable. "Good-byl" she cried, laughing. "Take care of my uncle!" with a glance towardB her punctured And. "Good-by!" I returned, releasing her. "Your uncle shall have my most faithful concern." The real significance of the words she, of course, did not comprehend. But as I stood watching her until a turn in the path enfolded her from my sight, their echo, ringing in my ears, impressed me with their pregnancy. Her uncle was evidently the focal point of a crafty and vengeful conspiracy, the seriousness of which I bad been foolishly endeavoring to minimize; and as such he was in nted, not only of my concern, but of all the loyal, energetic, and efficient aid of which I was capable. J Y \ t ) m. m£, > CHAPTER IV. The Chinese Servant. Four o'clock found me rapping at Ih© door of Cragholt Lodge. Consld- «ring that it was built thirty-five years ago by one of the Townsbury family who probably read English novels but had never been nearer to England than Coney Island, it possessed a surprising plcturesqueness; due in large part to its covering of dark English ivy. I had anticipated my appointment Witt) Evelyn by * full hour; for I wished to question old Romney, the lodge keeper; and the questions were not for milady's ear. He opened to me promptly, in person, this odd, rugged old man, with his seamed brow and great shock of irorf-gray hair and beard. He was in his shirt sleeves, but on seeing me he reached for his coat, which hung on a peg beside the door. "Never mind the coat, Romney," I said, "don't make yourself uncomfortable on my account. It's a warm * afternoon." "It is warmish, sir," he assented; but despite my protest he was thrusting his arm into the cdat sleeves. "It's been an uncommon hot September. Won't you step inside, sir?" He knew his place too well to Indicate* any surprise at my visit; yet I felt he mnst be curious over an event to*unusuaL "I have an inquiry or two to make, Romney," I told him, as, accepting h i t suggestion, I stepped into his coty, old-fashioned sitting room. "I heard some shooting over this way tfeta morning, and I've been wondering whether the game laws weren't being* broken." He plaeed a cushioned /rockingcTiaJr tor me, and I sat down. "Now <Wd you hear that, too, Mr. CfytieT' bU atked, brightening, as he W t t e d against the low sill of one of **r- daintily curtsfnad windows. * T * M 4 i b 6 i i t t m o*ck>cfc, «trr « little sfstv, vaybt. I wa« doin' * bit of ru-*--^ trlmmin' on the hedge outside, sir, when them same shots set mo a-thlnkin' that very thing. An' right away, sir, I says to myself, says I, 'It's that Chink what Just went up to the house to borrow a rifle.' " "That Chink?" I repeated, puzzled. "Yes, sir. Yellow Chinese boy, sir. He works for Mi» Murphy, the artist, what has the bungalow, down on the shore near Cos Cob. About half an hour before that he tomes by here on his way up to the house. 'What's wantin'?' I asks. 'Mistle Mulfy,' he says, 'wantee bollow lifle, shootee weasel, stealee chickee.' 'All right,' I tells him, and away he goes. So, you see, sir, when I hears the shots-1 thinks right away that Mr. Murphy's Chink is tryln' his 'hollowed line* on some of Mr. Cameron's pheasants, maybe. But 15 minutes later, along comes John again, with an innocent grin on his face, the rifle over his shoulder, and his hands empty as' air. _We_H, to be sure, I_ stops him, sir. 'You been shootin' In the woods?' I asks. 'No shootee/ he grins back. 'Me no shootee.' Then, sir, I swears at him, good and hearty, and calls him what he la. But all he can say is, 'No lie; me no shootee.' Then I asks him if he didn't hear a gun go off. 'Gun?' he says, as if he didn't know what gun meant. 'Lifle,' I explains. 'Yes, yes/ says he, 'me hear lifle shootee. Not my lifle.' *Whose lifle?' I asks him. 'Man with lifle, up load/ he says, pointing back. An' that was all I could get out of him, sir." I should have been amused, I suppose, by old Romney's recital. It was certainly very graphic, and hiB imitation of the Chinaman was histrionically artistic—I fear the stage missed a comedian of merit when Romney took to lodge-keeping—bdt at the flrst mention, of the oriental, I had pricked ray ears, and throughout the narration my mind was busy with those strangely worded letters of Cameron's and those still stranger blots which looked one way like a Chinese junk and the other way like a coolie in a straw helmet. The possibility of a connection, especially in view of the rifle and the perforated painting, seemed to me the reverse of remote. And yet I could hardly reconcile the notion of this apparently ignorant Mongolian being in any wise interested in bringing disaster upon a person so far removed from him In every way as was Cameron; much less in evolving or taking part in such a crafty plot as everything we had thus far learned of it Indicated this to be. My questioning of Romney shed very little new light on the subject. He had seen the Chinaman pass the Lodge on several occasions; he had rarely entered the grounds, however. I tried to ascertain what his "rarely" meant, and finally got him to say that in the past six months, "John," as he calted him, had visited Cragholt, on one pretext or another, possibly three or four times. But Romney's memory for dates was exceedingly feeble. He could not recollect whether one of those times was on or about the twenty-first of August. He was equally at a loss concerning the fourteenth of August and the fourteenth of September. "What do you know of this artist, Murphy, who employs John?" I asked. "Not much, sir," was his answer. "They do say as he Is rather eccentric, sir. He and the Chink lives alone there in the bungalow, summer and winter. He's a big red-headed and bearded fellow, sir. I did hear a story as to him gettin' into a fight up at Garrison's hotel in Greenwich village, and nearly killin' three young watermen near as big as himself." "Has he lived here long?" "Goin' on two years, now, sir." "He paints and sells pictures, I suppose •>,> "Maybe, Bir. I never sees any, though. But they calls him an artist, sir." I determined to visit Murphy on the pretext of purchasing some of his work, and in this manner learn, If possible, something more of his celestial servitor. "Of course you didn't see any one else with a rifle, today?" I asked, in conclusion. "The 'man with lifle up load' didn't materialize?" "No, sir. Not another soul, sir. I asked some of the boys—them as has charge of the deer in the preserve, over the way the shootin' sounded. But they hadn't seen no one, either, sir. Though they did hear the shots." I thanked Romney for his Interest —he knew I was one of the state game wardens—and admonished him to keep his own counsel as to my visit, leaving the impression with him that I wished to round up the culprit, and feared if my activity in the matter were scented my prey would be put on his guard and thus escape me. It still lacked twenty minutes of the hour of my appointment with fSreiytt when i issued from the Lodge, *q4 to occupy the time I entered the wide gateway between the great stone pillars with their heraldic shields, and sauntered leisurely along the smooth macadam drive, bordered by sentinel elms. My thoughts were busy with the new line of conjecture which Romney had unconsciously opened up for me. I wondered whether by any possibility this eccentric painter, Murphy, could be personally involved. Was Cameron acquainted with him? ' Had they ever quarrelled? From what Romney had told me of the affair at Garrison's the artist was evidently of a bellicose disposition. He had come here two years ago. Cameron had cm-necr Cragholt less than a yervr. Perhaps at the time he was preparing the mansion for occupancy he had offended the too sensitive Murphy, who—I was letting my imagination run free—may have wished to take a hand at the new decoration. It would probably be well for me to see Cameron before seeing the artist. The involutions of "my""ftypot-h-etieal train led me, I fear, into many monstrously preposterous conceits; yet, as subsequent events proved, the cogitation in which I indulged on that afternoon walk was not wholly idle. Although the working out was along lines which I waB then far from, foreseeing, It was curious, in looking back, to observe how very closely, collaterally, even at that stage, I came to the truth. In the midst of my revery, the rhythm of horse's hoofs on the drive awoke me to time and place. And as I raised my eyes, I saw, still some distance away, but bearing down upon me at a swift single-foot, the girlish figure of Evelyn Grayson, in white waist and gray habit, mounted on Prince Charley, a buckskin cayuse, which for saddle purposes she preferred to all the thoroughbreds in the Cameron stables. "Am I late?" she cried, reining the wiry little animal to a stand beside me. "Celia Ainslee just left. She was expecting the LentilhonB to stop for her in their motor boat, but they broke down and were delayed, and instead of coming at three o'clock, it was half-past four before they landed." "I fancy you are Just on the minute," was my response, as I consulted my timepiece. "But I'm still a mile from the Lodge," she argued. "And all the nearer to the trail," I condoned. "It must be somewhere about here, isn't it?" "You've passed it. It's just beyond that next bend." And she pointed over my shoulder. "Why didn't> you bring a groom with you to hold your steed?" I asked, smiling. "You, don't expect to ride Prince Charley Into the forest fastnesses, do you?" "I could," she answered, promptly. "I will, if you dare me. He can pick his way like a cat. But it isn't necessary. He'll stand forever, the dear thing, If I drop the bridle rein over his head." My preference was to have her on foot at my side, and BO I did not dare her. And thus it chanced that we left the homely little animal standing with drooping head and dangling rein on the shadowed side of Jhe driveway, and went off together down the narrow, slow-descending trail, the girl in the lead. The slanting sunlight, shooting Its golden arrows in intermittent volleys through the tree tops, made target of her hair, as we passed, scoring brilliant flashes of burnished bronze. Her hat, a broad-brimmed sailor ef coarse straw, was but a poor shield for that shimmering, tawny coil which lay low on her neck, and the darting rays had their will with it. I have never before or since seen hair Just like Evelyn Grayson's. There was such a wealth of it, and its color was so elusive. Under dim lights it seemed a prosaic brown, but with small encouragement it changed to a light fawn, streaked with lustrous topaz ajrands; which in the sun's blaze became a dazzling bronze glory. "I'm pretty sure I can find the tree," she asserted, as she swung along with that free, lissome stride which I loved. "It is an old, dead chestnut, a great giant of the woods, imposing even In death; and it stands only a half-dozen yards off the tralL I was looking for ferns, or 1 never in the world should have come upon it. How do you imagine that tning ever got away off here? And who could have stuck It up on that dead tree trunk?" "That is precisely what I should like to find out," was my reply. "It seems very mysterious to me. About what time was it, when you discovered it?" "Just before I met you." "Had you heard any shooting in the woods, before that?" "Shooting?" she queried, apparently surprised. "No. Was some one shooting?" "I understood so. Poaching, I imagine. After some of Cameron's fst pheasants." "But It's out of season," she declared, promptly. "That makes small difference with a poacher." Her belief in her ability to lead me to the tree of which we were in quest was not unfounded. Twice she paused and peered in between the gray trunks which grew close to our path; once she took a step off the trail, bending in keen-eyed search of certain familiar landmarks. These were the only interruptions to what was otherwise a straight march to ihe goal. When, at length, we reached it, she Identified it beyond question, and I had little difficulty in finding the nail from which the piece of canvas had been suspended. It was one of thin wire, with very Binall head, driven into the tree at a distance of about four and a half feet from the ground. Just beneath It I found four scattering bullet, holes, wjth the bullets too deeply embedded to be extracted with so poor a tool as a pocket knife. From this it was evident that the shots had been fired at comparatively short range, as indeed they must have been, seeing that the trees here grew so thickly as to make impossible any very extended line of sight upon the target. Somewhat, to Evelyn's perplexity I began making a careful inspection ot the ground," not only about the tree, but as far away from it as the range of vision extended. "What are ~you looking for?" she demanded, with a i>ho\v of concern, and, I thought, a little peevishly. "Footprints," I answered laughing. "Behold the American Sherlock!" "Have you found any?" "Only Cinderella's," and that put her in good humor. But I found something of much more Importance than the indentations of shoe soles. I found It very near the foot of the tree, just below where the painting had hung. It was half hidden by underbrush, and at first I mistook it for a stone. Unobserved by Evelyn, I slipped it into my pocket. "After all," I said to her, "there's not very much to be learned here, is there?" CHAPTER V. Found Dead. My motor boat, which had been running swiftly ard smoothly, with the least possible clamor from the exhaust, suddenly missed a stroke and then, after a succession of choking sobs, ceased all effort, and gradually loalng headway, drifted idly with the tide. "Well don«, Jerry," I whispered from my seat In the stern to the capable young Irishman who was bending over the motor—whispered, because, as all the world knows, the -water is a sounding board, and I had no intention of permitting any one on shore to hear my words of approval. To all appearances the motor had broken down, and wo were voyagers in distress. "The tide's settin' in," murmured Jerry. "Unless I miss me guess, it'll land us on his beach inside o' five minutes, sir." The slender scallop of a new moon had set an hour before, but the nigh{ was luminously clear, and the stars blazed with an almost southern effulgence. There was very little breeze and the waters of the Mlanus were scarcely rippled. The air was chill, however, though now and then there came to us a warm breath from the fields which all day long had lain baking iti the fervent sunshine. Along the shore to our left we caught the glint of lights from the summer cottages. To Jerry Rooney every inch of the little bay and river was familiar Each light was for him a landmark; and so, as much by Intuition as careful calculation, he had clogged the engine at a point whence, taking tide and current Into consideration, we might count upon drifting to the water end of Artist Murphy's lawn. As we drew nearer and he stealthily pointed out to me the location, I was able to descry a little grove of trees, black in the starlight, making a horizontal barrier across the limited enclosure, and hiding, like a rope portiere, the bungalow from the river. Through this no lights penetrated, and I began to doubt that, af?er all my pains, I should find at home the object of their taking. A catboat, with sail wrinkling in the uncertain breeze, glided by us, almost too near for comfort, and we caught a sentence, two sentences, In fact, from the conversation of the occupants: "Nobody knows him," In clear, ringing masculine tones; and, "He's handsome, if he is surly," in a woman's voice. I wondered if they were speaking of Murphy. My telephone inquiry of Cameron and subsequent questioning of the men ubxmt my place had proved to me that both observations would apply. No one seemed to know very much of this brawny, sandy giant, in spite of his two year's residence in the neighborhood. Now the shore's shadow was engulfing us, and the next moment, with a gentle swish of waters, we felt the boat's bottom grate on the pebbly beach. There was a landing a short distance further up—a spindling wooden pier—and to this Jerry, knee deep in the black water, turned the boat and mad a it fast. The prospect which confronted ua as we walked shoreward over the creaking planks was about as hospitable as the grim walls of a prison. The tree barrier rose stark and forbidding a dozen yards away. Between it and the river was a combination of pebbles, Band, high grass, and rugged oveigrown lawn, faintly visible In the starlight. On nearerapproach, however, we found an opening in the curtain of trees, a veritable valley of shadow, through which we passed to a strip' of neglected sward and a squat, unpainted weather-beaten cottage of a single story, with vine-screened verandah. And in what seemed, to us the very center of the house front, there shone a tiny glowing point, o.'! red fire. Wo had not come altogether in vain. By all "the"odds "of "chance, it was a safe conclusion that Murphy, In propria persona, was behind that lighted end of a cigar. Then we &aw the point move, describing a half circle, and simultaneously a voice rang out—a deep, sonorous voice, but of churlish intonation: .. "What do you_want_ hero?" _ I suppose he expected me to come to a sudden halt, but I was then only a few steps distant from the verandah, and as I answered him, I covered that distance. "My motor boat ran out of gasolene," I said, "and drifted * to your beach. I was in hopes we might borrow enough to get us home." I saw him now, dimly, in the shadowed recess. He was seated facing me, a creature of great bulk, with huge head and ponderous shoulders. "I don't keep gasolene," was his gruff response. "I thought—" I began, but his next utterance drowned my words. "I say I don't keep it," he reiterated, in louder tones. . "Isn't that plain?" "Oh, quite. You have neither gasolene nor good manners." I saw him rise, a massive tower, dwarfing his surroundings, and take a step forward to the edge of his porch. "This is my house and my castle," he flung at me, savagely, "and I won't stand for trespassers. If you two don't want to be Hung off my property, it would be advisable for you to make haste in going." My laugh was not calculated to salve his ill humor, yet I think he must have gathered from it that I was not to be terrorized by either his size o r ' h i s threats. "Your name's Murphy, I think," 1 ventured, calmly, not moving an inch. But he made no response. "Mine is Clyde," t went on; "I am one of the state game wardens." "I'm not interested in who you are," he' growled. "But I'm interested in learning •what your Chinaman waa shooting this morning, over on the Cameron place." "Then find out," was his courteous retort. "I'm sure I shan't tell you." "Maybe the Chinaman will be more obliging," 1 suggested, and turning to Jerry, who had stood in silence, all the while, a few steps behind me, I said: "Look around at the back, my lad, and if you can find Mr. Murphy's man fetch him here." But before I had quite finished, the big man in the shadow of the verandah was storming: "He'll stop just where he Is. If he dares to come another step nearer this house, I'll throw the pair of ycu over the hedge, neck and crop. Do you hear me?" "And if you dare to interfere with an officer or his deputy in the discharge of his duty, the authorities will settle with you," was my calm rejoinder. "Trot ahead, Jerry! His bark's worse than his bite." Jerry, quick to obey, disappeared on the instant around the corner of the bungalow, and Murphy, after a pretended dash forward, halted on the lower porch step. "See hero!" he demanded, cumbrously. "What's all this, anyhow? You come here after gasolene, ostensibly, and then declare you're game wardens after a law-defying, Chinese poacher."

Naw York When Every Sailor Wore a Queue The sailors' broad collars were devised so that the powder or tar on the wearer's queues should not come off on the blouse. In the old days every sailor wore his hair In a queue and either had the queue powdered or held together by tar. This was not good for the blouse or Jacket underneath. So detachable broad collars were added. Sailors stopped wearing queues a century ago. . But they still wear the wide collar. When Lord Nelson died the British navy went into mourning tor him. Sailors put broad black ribbons on their capt and black ribbons oa their blouses. And the ribbons remain to this day, not only on the uniforms of British sailors, but on those of other navies as well. The broad "bell shaped" ends of sailors' trouser legs were thus shaped so that the wearer might more easily turn his trousers up above his knees when he had to swab the decks. Deck swabbing was a hateful and supposedly degrading task. Hence the sailors called their enemies "swabs" as a terra of contempt.
