Has Seen Hard Service, and From the First Has Been Recognized as a Ruthless and Determined Man—Seemingly Knows No Quality of Mercy. Once intended by old Porflrlo to be a second Diaz in Mexico, now, like his former chief, a fugitive from the wrath of his compatriots, Victoriano Huerta sees himself at sixty forced to resign the presidency of his country. He will, it is believed, go to Europe, where, like other Latin American presidents, he will end his days with little enjoyment save that of reminiscence. Huerta was born to wealth. Unlike Diaz, who is of plebeian origin, a mongrel, mostly Indian, Huerta comes of one of the most aristocratic families in Mexico. He was born in Chihuahua, with which state the Huertas have long been identified, in 1854, or 1857, reports differ. At the age of seventeen the aristocrat was appointed by Diaz, then ruling Mexico with an iron hand, to the military school of Chapultepec. Huerta served his four school years passably well. He was neither at the head nor the foot of his class. He was graduated with honors, being about the tenth in a class of nearly a hundred, and immediately went to Join a regiment on the west coSit as a second lieutenant of engineers. When President Diaz began his reorganization of the Mexican army Huerta was promoted captain of engineers, and while holding this rank devised the plan for a Mexican general staff corps. He was an active member of the military map commission created to draft a staff map of Mexico on a large scale, and he had charge of all the topographical work of the commission, leading exploring and surveying parties over the wildest regions of the republic. President Diaz sootf after began to place confidence in Huerta. He be- • lieved he saw in the lieutenant colonel of engineers, to which rank the soldier had succeeded, traits which would make him a worthy successor In the executive chair. Huerta was placed in charge of a station in Matanzas, far removed from the capital. There plots could be easily hatched, and Diaz was loath to leave in charge any officer in whom he had not implicit trust Huerta was barely thirty-five when i this incident occurred. One afternoon while he was riding with an escort of but three men through a mountain pass in the vicinity of his station, six or seven masked men stepped from ; the roadside and covered his little pa> j ty. Naturally they threw up theif hands. The highwaymen proved to be mem- . bers of the band of Fiores Zegaza, the bandit who kept the community on the feather edge. It was his habit to descend on the towns along the coast , and levy toll whenever hunger or ' caprice impelled him to do so. Huerta soon stood in front of Zegaza'• hut, an adobe dwelling, much dilapidated, far up the mountain. There Zegaza made the proposition which was not at all unusual in Mexico then, and which is, in fact, quite the vogue today. He proposed that Huerta should keep him informed as ' to the days when the military force would be marching in & direction opposite from the town. On such days Zegaza would make it a point to call, with his followers, and -.,, collect from the natives such stores of money and clothes and food and 'wine and tobacco as had accumulated ^.since the last visit. —-- Zegaza was not at all surprised to Jiave Huerta accept his proposition to receive in return for the promised information a share of whatever loot fell to the bandits. 'f < Ten days later Huerta sent word to HyZegara that he would he away from the station on the following Thursday. ' 'Promptly on Thursday the bandits M rode into Matanzas, confident there would be no opposition except from •\ tae sporadic popguns of the overfright- " sued storekeepers. As they turned *>|nto the main street, discharging their revolvers to frighten every one away, '**»• gonad of Huerta's soldiers closed in v ^ n their rear and another squad appeared in their front A number of Zegaza's men were in the street The remainder, the bandit chief himself, surren- >oV A week later Zegasa'was shot - i f t the cuartei of the prison attached to the station. Inerta is no drawing room soldier. has seen much active service, {a l t d he took command of the infantry toi the -campaign against the teojd Indians. After this campaign he was again put in charge of the general staff's topographical work in Sonora. He participated in subsequent Taqui campaigns and also In the campaign In Yucatan against the Maya Indians. Huerta commanded all the detached government forces in the state of Guerrero at the beginning of the Madero revolution. When Madero succeded to the presidency, General Huerta was sent back into Moreloe with a force to put down the Zapata rebellion. As a result of ill feeling growing out of this campaign, Huerta was recalled. Subsequently he led the army sent against Orozco, and was in command at the battle of Bachimba. For this service he was promoted to major general. In the second Felix Diaz revolution, which resulted in the overthrow of the Madero government, Huerta was immediately called to active command as the senior ranking general then in the capital. He escorted Madero from Chapultepec castle to the palace on the first of the ten days* fighting and was placed in entire command of the forces of the government. He directed the government troops during all the subsequent fighting, and the conduct of these operations led to severe criticism on the part of Madero's friends. It was charged that he did not carry out the operations with any spirit and that he disobeyed the commands of President Madero. It Is said that before Blanquet entered the city the generals had a conference at which the fate of the Maderos was sealed, Huerta was the moving spirit in the consummation of the plot that resulted In the seizure of the person of President Madero, his brother; Gustavo, and Vice Presiden.t Jose Pino Saurez. The assassinations of the Maderos and Saurez followed, and in the meantime Huerta, with the military behind him, had been recognized as the provisional president. huerta at once sought recognition of the United States, for it is understood in Latin:American countries that none of their presidents can hold office long without being recognized by the American government. President Wilson, however, refused to treat Huerta as chief executive of Mexico. In the meantime, General Carranza, the successor of Madero in the dream of a Justly governed Mexico, was winning over the North. His military commander, General Villa, repeatedly defeated the federal forces. Practically all of the North came under the constitutionalist sway. In the South Zapata held out against Huerta. Then the United States came down upon him, seizing the city of Vera Cruz as a result of an affront to the Stars and Stripes. Mediation at the instance of Argentina, Brazil and Chile followed with no satisfactory results. HAVE FAITH IN CARBAJAL Huerta's Successor a Civilian and a Man of Acknowledged Probity— His Honorable Career. Mexico City.—Francisco Carbajal is forty-four, years old, a native of the state of Campeche, and a lawyer. Almost ever since the start of his career he has occupied posts in the judiciary. In the Madero administration he was a senator, but relinquished his post to re-enter the supreme court, of which he was chief Justice at the time General Huerta appointed him minister of foreign relations. When General Porflrlo Diaz determined in 1911 to treat with the Madero revolutionists, Senor Carbajal proceeded to Juarez as his commissioner. Senor Carbajal has a reputation for possessing considerable intellectual force and independence of character. His demeanor is* quiet He shuns the exuberance In verbiage and gesticulation to which Latin-Americans are prone. He Is courteous, hut a man of few words and little given to elaborate compliments. Besides, he Is neat and wen groomed in appearance. His features indicate pure European descent, without any admixture of Indian blood. Altogether he is a man who conveys an impression of reserve power. He is a good man of business. His probity has never been questioned. He has been sagacious and successful fa investments sad, while net rich, it a man of Independent He is erase* of family. GREAT RAILROAD STRIKE AVERTED FEDERAL BOARD OF MEDIATORS WILL TAKE UP WAGE DISPUTE. SHORTER HOURS ARE ASKED Conference Had Been Suspended and Great industrial Strife Seemed Assured When Leaders Accept Board's Offer. Chicago.—The committee of the general managers of the western railroads and brotherhood of railroad enginemen and firemen spent the day Saturday in preparing to submit their wage dispute to the federal board of mediation, who came here from Washington and opened sessions Monday. Acceptance by the men's leaders late. Friday of the federal offer of mediation after they had declined to consider it, alleging that the roads had not been bound in the:past by arbitration courts' decisions, roused hopes that the wide differences between the enginemen and firemen and their employers might be adjusted. No compromise offers between the 55,000 engineers and firemen of the western roads and the operators have been made public. Conferences between the union leaders and the managers were suspended Thursday after exchanges of letters indicated no wavering on either side. The controversy dates back to October of last year, when the engineers and firemen began increasing their demands. The managers claim that now the requests for more pay, shorter hours and changed working conditions would cost the roads Involved $33,000,000 a year or 50 per cent of the yearly wage now paid.

Alexander, a East Lansing, Mich.—Inquiry by Secretary A. M. Brown, of the state board of agriculture, into the proposed colonization of Alger county with Japanese farmers, has afforded further confirmation of the Japanese truck farming scheme. A number of Japs have been scouting through the upper peninsula, presumably In quest of a favorable location for the colony, for almost a year, according to the information which has come to Secretary Brown. The latest developments indicate that the settlers will locate near Chatham, one of the most fertile districts north of the straits. "For the last year," said Mr. Brown, "W. F. Raven, the college's superintendent of extension work in the upper peninsula, has 'observed at different time a number of Japs who have been moving from place to place. One or two of them he had become sufficiently familiar with to pass the time of day. Another of these he has seen a few times in the vicinity of Chatham. Mr. Raven was suspicious at that time that they were looking up lands, "Mr. Lytle, general superintendent of the South Shore railroad, says there is no doubt that the Japs will come.

I came here today to find ont if yon meant to fight him. I had an idea that you did. Ill help you do him up."

Go along!" and Mar/ raised her voice as her temper got the better of her. Hayes, hearing the loud tones, appeared at the kitchen door munching * biscuit "How dare youl" he.heard Mary exclaim. "You can't abuse my husband !to me!" Merrltt looked once at Hayes and once at Mary. Then bewent Hayes stood taklngdtarge bites ont of the biscuit, looking at Mary with an amused smile.

"Oh, the dev—" muttered Rob as he Started toward the door. "These 4 d curious neighbors!" He opened the door abruptly. Instead of the gossiping neighbors he had expected he was -confronted by Katharine Strickland. CHAPTER X. out soon after her arrival remained mutely on her lips. Instead she found herself answering the questions that Mary Slade waa asking. She found herself telling the woman of her own struggles against increasing poverty, talking of her own hopes and ambitions. "Mrs. Slade, I don't say this is a social call." Katherine found herself as frank as the woman at the other side of the table. "You—you know all about my trouble. Miss Strickland?" "Yes. that's what I'd like to talk to you about without offending you, if I might You see, this trouble comes very near to us—" "How does It come near to you, my dearT" Mary interrupted. "Mrs. Slade," Katherine set herself bravely to what she knew would be a bitter task. "My father is virtually a beggar. You know how we live! People think we're rich. Well—we're poor! We're getting poorer every day. Every penny ie tied up in—politics. My father'was the first to see Mr. Slade's -strength. He is now living onjfar Slade's future." 4^4Eary nodded. "Mr. Slade is a very Important man," Katherine went on, "but no matter how much people admire him he can easily be ruined by a scandal." "I haven't any desire to ruin my husband," Mary protested, quickly. "No^ I'sa-HBure you haven't," Katherine Mpf more at. ease as the conversatfan progressed. "But you being here and he being a few miles away, of course, there's no excuse to be offered, Is there? It is a scandal. Politically and socially he's ruined unless he comes back here, or you—" Katherine paused, for the simple reason that she didn't have the heart to finish. "Or I go away," Mary completed the sentence. "Yes, and If I go away—I know what that means. No. I'm not going away. Miss Strickland, you tell your father and his friends, from I Katherine was Just as much amased at meeting Hayes* as he was at finding her at the door. "I didnt know yon would be here," (Katherine apologised, "otherwise I—" Bob's expression silenced her. She Ifead never seen such an expression In lids eyes before. Katherine was radl- Jaatly beautiful today. She knew it Store than that, she had taken par •JHeolar care to gown herself in an Stoqulslte afternoon dress of dull blue, a gown that had been draped according to her own fastidious design. But in Sob's eyes there was no response [to her beauty or her clothes or her poise. He didn't even attempt to disguise his disgust at her effrontery in invading Mrs. Slade's retreat "I want to see Mrs. Slade," Katharine finally announced. "Upon my word!" his voice was low, t«t hoarse. "I never heard of such a thttfg as your coming to tWa house. [What.do you want here? Want to tell that little woman you're after her? iWhat do you want here?" r "Will you kindly tell Mrs. Slade that J am here?" Katherine'e eyes were ihard and her mouth a thin strip of determination. >' "First, I want to know what you're going to say to her," Hayes demanded. "Whether I say It today or tomorrow doesn't matter," Katherine answered, quietly. Til say it/ So you . ^mlght as well let her know I'm here— and go." "All right hut do you think you had better risk it? You look out!

"You're so young and need pretty things. That's one of the Joys I've missed—dressing a daughter! You know," she began, suddenly, "I've heard a great deal of you, and you're not at all the young lady I supposed you were. You're Just as simple and sweet and natural as you can be. And your affection for your father!" Mary got up and, selecting the loveliest rose from the cluster in the vase, carefully wiped the stem and handed it to Katherine. "Won't you stay for a bit of dinner? Better have Just a bite." "I must go," returned Katherine absently. Somehow -or other she hadn't quite expected this sort of a visit T hope I havent said anything to trouble you," she hastened to add. "What I said about this ruining Mr. Slade is Just an echo of what his friends say." ^ "My dear child, you haven't hurt my feelings. Perhaps you know something I don't know?" she asked, euddenly. "Do sit down again. Stay Just a minute. I'd like to talk some more. You're out in the world and I'm quite alone. People aren't as frank with me as they might be. Suppose I'm your mother—lust let me Bay it—and my husband wanted a divorce—he's old enough to be your father—we'd all get together to find out why, wouldn't we?" "I suppose we would," and Katherine took the chair Mrs. Slade had Indicated. "What I want to know Is why people think Mr. Slade wants a divorce? Why, isn't a separation bad enough?" "I don't know that I—" For the life of her she could think of no answer to this directly simple line of questioning. "Well, there's only one reason I ever knew of," Mary continued, "when a man's so Insistent. I guess you know the kind of reason I mean—a— well—a younger reason." "You mean;—a woman?" Katherine's voice was cold and firm. "Yes, I dp. It doesn't Beem to surprise you," Mary declared suddenly noticing that Katherine had known at once Just what she had in mind. "Miss Strickland, I think you know something more than you're telling me and you hate to say it. What would you do in "my place?" she asked as Katherine's silence gave virtual assent. "I?" Katherine asked vacantly. She thought a moment Then quickly, earnestly: "I'll tell you what IH do. I'd do what they all do. I'd save what's left of the affection I once had. It's no use standing over a man with the end of a chain in your hand; that doesn't get him back. I'd take his money, the luxury—I'd simply—well, I'd dissolve partnership and I'd go. Fd go to some place where life interested me and get what I could out of It. I'd live as I never had lived, and I'd make him pay." "That's a new idea to me." Mary was listening Intently. "I never thought of such a thing." "And supposing. Mrs. Slade, that another woman did appear. I dont say there is one, but—" "But is there?" Mary persisted. "I didn't say so. But I do know this: If we do love anyone, and they really love us, they never get over It and we never get over It either, for there's always something In our hearts that we can't—we can't forget And take a man who's not young, like Mr. Slade, why, no other woman could be anything at all to him—I mean anything more than something to keep up his position." "I see," replied Mary, thoughtfully. "Someone to sit in his box at the opera— someone to go about and do him credit. Mise Strickland," she paused a moment and looked at Katherine earnestly, "there la such a woman, and you know it. I believe, Miss Strickland, I believe the Lord sent you straight here to.me." "I only came to find out what you Intend doing," Katherine answered, alarmed and not knowing exactly what Mrs. Slade meant "I muBtn't trouble you any longer." "You're no trouble at all," said Mary, detaining her. "It's the doubt that troubles me. Miss Strickland, I know perfectly well you must have heard people talking. The words I want are in your mouth- Come, now, honestly tell me," she coaxed, "who is the hussy?" "Mrs. Slade," exclaimed Katherine, haughtily, unconsciously drawing herself up. "I ought not to have used that word, I know," Mary drew a long breath, "but I—you can't blame me. Why, do you know what it would mean? It would mean two Mrs. Slades here in this town or — or — anywhere he's He Took Her Hand Eagerly and Held It known. Two Mrs. Slades after all these long, respectable years! Why, It Isn't human!" and she held up two accusing fingers. "Oh, no! Every one would be askln': 'Which Mrs. Slade is that—the old one or the new one he got?' He'd be out with Mrs. Slade No. 2, while Mrs. Slade No. 1 was home breaking her heart Well, they don't catch me like that! Not much! If that's what It means, there's only going to be one Mrs. Slade, and I wouldn't stoop to be that one. I fought for his name when he was free, but If he isn't now, I wouldn't haggle over a man who didnt respect me enough to—No! She could take him and his name and his money and—I'd go to where people didn't know the sight of my face. Miss Strickland, there ie another woman, and you know it Out with it, like a good girl.. Just say It—and I'll take your advice. I'll make the best of life and go. Just say it!" (TO BE CONTINUED.) ALGERIANS NOT ALL ARABS '% • Two Kabytigfc White They Are Followers of Islam, Have Different Characteristics. I hate spoken of Algeria as if it .consisted entirely of Arabs; bat this may give an entirely false idea of the population and characteristics of the country. For though they are 'all followers of Islam they do not belong to the same race. Roughly there are two great races in Algeria, the Arabs properly go-called. and the Kabyle*. The Kabylee are a curious race, so different from the Arabs as to suggest an entirely different origin. Some people even fnslft that they are largely of that Roman race which for so long wee master of an North Africa, Their language is quite different from Arable; though they are Healems, their conception of Mohamjneejssem Ie so dtferent from those of the Asehe that tfcey may well be dustrious.

It commenced with a small blotch of pimples which turned into a kind of rash and spread rapidly. It Itched and looked red and sore for some time and slightly swelled. A thin fluid dripped and ran from the sores which looked like water. Then the swelling would go down and it would keep on spreading. It bothered her during sleep and she would be restless. It was a kind of eczema. "She treated for some time and it did not help her. it kept spreading larger and deeper.

Run Out of Town The usual afternoon placidity of our village was rudely shattered on last Friday afternoon by the appearance of a cloud of dust moving rapidly towards the depot. At first thought, many went to their cyclone cellars, persumiug a revisitation of the storm of a few days ago; but Adrian Lavey at the school house discovered it to be R. C. Culhane trying to make the 4:39 train. Culhane, after coming to consciousness, when interviewed by our "war correspondent" claims he was literally "run out of town" by Will Dunning and says hfj broke nil Bpeed records ever "hung up" in Piuckney since the advent of the "Ford". He started his run from Murphy <fc Jackson's store at 4:159¾ and reached the depot at 4:^8 sharp. The citizens were iudignant at Dunning for speeding the departing guest in such a4 manner and threatened to have him "shot at sun-rise'*. Ask Will for details.

In that year 492 districts forfeited their share of the $5,515,000.00 primary money distributed to the various schools in the state. In 19x3 this number had been decreased by 299, 193 districts forfeiting. In the coming apportionment to" be made July 15, 1914, only 92 districts will be barred because of having a surplus balance of primary money at the close of the year. The total amount of primary money on hand in the district treasuries of the state at the close of the year 1913 was «828,361.00 as against the $2,700,000.00 on hand previous to the year this amendment went into effect. The most noticeable change caused by the more equal distribution of the public money has been in the improvement of certain school conditions. Many small districts have voted to close theh schools and are paying tuition to a better school than they could maintain. In large districts where formerly there had been but one teacher employed now we find two and because oft ho better salaries paid, a better school uudt^r more competent teachers.

Ferruginous Roughleg It One of Our Largest and Most Beneficial Birds, at It Feedt on Meadow Mice and Other Mammals. According to biological authorities of the United States department - of agriculture, certain hawks and owls are of value to the farmer in destroying voracious rodents. Notwithstanding the deep-rooted prejudice against thee© birds, it is the belief that the good they do overbalances the evil. Hawks and owls may be divided arbitrarily into four classes: 1. Species wholly beneficial. \ 2. Those chiefly beneficial. 3. Those In which beneficial and harmful qualities about balance. 4. Harmful species. It should be stated that several birds of prey belong to one or another class, according to locality. A hawk or owl may. be locally injurious because at that place mice, squirrels, insects and other noxious animals are scarce, and consequently the bird is driven to feed on things of more or less value to man, while in other regions where its natural food abounds, it does absolutely no harm. A good example of this kind is the great horned owl. To the wholly beneficial class, the squirrel hawk or ferruginous roughleg and the four kites—the whitetailed kite, Mississippi kite, swallowtailed kite and everglade kite—belong. | The chiefly beneficial class contains a majority of our hawks and owls, and includes the following kinds: Marsh hawk, Harris hawk, red-tailed hawk, red-shouldered hawk, short-tailed hawk, Swainson hawk, broad-winged hawk, Mexican black hawk' Mexican igoshawk, sparrow hawk, Audubon caracara, barn owl, long-eared owl, shorteared owl, great gray owl, barrel owl, western owl, Richardson owl, Acadian owl, screech owl, flammulated screech as it is sometimes called on account of its fondness for ground squarrels, so destructive In the West, are among our largest and most beneficial hawks. The former breeds wholly north of the United States, migrating south in September and October and remaining until the following April. The latter breeds extensively through the great plains region. The winter range of the roughleg Is determined more by the fall of snow than by the Intensity of cold, the main body advancing and retreating as the barrier of snow melts or accumulates. Meadow mice and lemntlngs form the Btaple food of this birdr The roughleg Is one of man's most important allies against meadow mice, TUNICS OF ALL SORTS GARMENT MAY BE A8 V A M C O A8 WEARER OE8IRE8.

Upper Figure, Adult Male; Lower Figure, Immature Female. owl, snowy owl, hawk owl, burrowing owl, pygmy owl, ferruginous pygmy owl and elf owl. The class in which the harmful and beneficial qualities balance includes the golden eagle, bald eagle, pigeon liawk, Richardson hawk, Aplomado falcon, prairie falcon and* great horned owl. The harmful class comprises the gyrfalcons, duck hawk, sharp-shinned; hawk, Cooper hawk and goshawk. The rough-legged hawk and the ferruginous roughleg, or squirrel hawk, CATTLE LOSS FROM DISEASE Estimated by Department of Agriculture to Be 19.8 Per Thousand Head During Last Year. Losses of cattle from disease during the past year are estimated to be 19.8 per thousand head, which compares with 20.6 similarly estimated last year and 20.5, the 10-year average of such loeses, according to the department of agriculture. Losses from exposure are estimated to be 10.9 per thousand, which compares with 14.1 similarly estimated last year and 16.5, the 10- p t , .. year average of such losses. The to- 5^H:~ **1 losses per thousand, from both dis- ' ease and exposure, if applied to the estimated number and value of cattle on Jatmarx X wdnld indicate a loss of about 1,797,000, at *39.50 per head, a -total of $68,611440. Tha condition as to healthfulness of cattle on April 1, 1914, was 96.8 per tont of normal, which compares^ with *6 similarly estimated a year ago and H the averagf for 16 years. Losses of afceap from disease duryear are estimated to be Sharp-Shinned Hawk—The Enemy of Small Birds and Chickens—Upper Figure, Immature Female; Lower Figure, Adult Male. feeding on little else during its six months' sojourn in the United States. It thus renders important service In checking the ravages of these small but formidable pests. The roughleg is somewhat crepuscular in habits, being on the alert during twilight and early dawn, when small mammals are most active. Other mice, rabbits and ground squirrels are eaten occasionally, and some of the older writers state that waterfowl are captured by this bird, but there is no known instance of its attacking birds. Stomachs of specimens shot in locations teeming with waterfowl contained nothing but the remains of meadow mice. The ferruginous roughleg is as fully beneficial as its relative, though the character of Its food differs somewhat. In many parts of the country inhabited by it, meadow mice, which play such an Important part In the economy of the other bird, are scarce or wanting, but are replaced by, nearly as destructive rodents, the ground squirrels. Upon these this large and handsome hawk wages continuous warfare, and great is the service it performs in keeping their numbers in check. Rabbits, prairie dogs, and occasionally pouched gophers are eaten. The marsh hawk Is one of the moit valuable on account of its abundance, wide distribution and habits. It is more or less common throughout the United States, and may be easily recognized by its white rump, slender form and long, narrow wings, as It beats untiringly over the meadows, marshes and prairie lands in search of food. If it were not that occasionally it pounces upon small birds, game and poultry/its place in the first class would be insured, for It is an indefatigable mouser. Rodents, such as meadow mice, rabbits, arboreal squirrels and ground squirrels, are its favorite quarry. In parts of the West j the last-named animals form its chief subsistence. Lizards, snakes, frogs | ami birds also are taken. about 21.7 per thousand, which compares with 24.6 similarly estimated a year ago and 25.2, the 10-year average of such losses. Losses from exposure are estimated to be 21 per thousand, which compares with 25.1 similarly estimated a year ago and 32.8, the 10- year average. The year is thus seen to have been favorable. The total losses per thousand from both disease and exposure, if applied to the approximate numbers and values on January 1, would indicate a loss of about 2,- 124,000 head, at $4.04, a total of $8,- 681,000. The condition as to healthfulness of sheep on April .1, 1914, was 96.6 per cent of normal, which compares with 96 similarly estimated a year ago, and 94.8, the 10-year average. Profitable Porker.

Bee that the growing ooKs have plenty of exercise* The catch-word of the season is the tunic. Sometimes It Is formed of circle after circle of flounces or formed of shirrlngs and puffings, and other models show tunics which extend to from three to four inches of the skirt bottom. One very smart and novel model taken from the modes of the time of Louis XVI was made with a long tunio of black taffeta, finished at the bottom with deep s c a l l o p s , and placed over a white lace skirt the underskirt being scarcely visible. Black taffeta or taffeta of some somber tone, is considered extremely s m a r t with the white lingerie materials, the somber note usually appearing ] in the shape of tunio trimming^ or o n e of t h*e swathed girdles, w h i c h are so much in vogue. Three frocks recently seen are a fair type of the frocks that will be seen at summer resorts. One is of eyelet linen, with a gay touch of color^n the way of Roman striped ribbon trimming beading, a frill of tfte embroidery which forms a fichu, and forming a girdle ending in loops at the front. The skirt has set on founces of the eyelet embroidery. Another frock is of flowered rosecolored and plain taffeta. The blouse closes with a single row of material buttons, and has a plaited organdy c o l l a r trimmed with a frill of lace. The skirt is made with a long tunic and p l a i t e d underskirt, Still another model is made of black taffeta. This model has the new tight-fitting corselet s h a p e d bodice, with organdy vest and collar. There is a long tunic with a panel of plaits back and front. A cape costume Is also in vogue. Undoubtedly t h e modish cape costume of serge, of satin or of taflogne in the rinsing water is soothing when tired. 3. Thoroughly dry the feet, dusting with a mixture of equal parts of boracic powder and the finest powdered starch. 4. Massage the feet for a few minutes every night Begin-at the toes and rub with firm, but gentle, pressure with an upward movement toward the leg. Put a little warm cocoa butter on your hands. This treatment helps to make the foot narrow and arched and and ankle slender. 6. Change the stockings every day, and see that they are not overdarned. 6. Never wear cheap shoe leather. It is the reverse of economical. See that your shoes are well made, and not only wide enough, but sufficiently long. Short shoes are a frequent source of corns and bunions. Also they cause the joints to contrast and enlarge and otherwise distort the foot Do not constantly wear the same shoes, however comfortable they may be*—Chicago Journal.

The craze for slimness Is passing, and the thin, bony woman is disappearing before the plump, bonny type. Women cheerfully own now to a waist of from 26 Inches to 36 inches. In fact, the very slim, "slinker-slouch" woman is now considered to be ugly and deformed. The craze for slimness, a beauty specialist saidr produced the irritable woman, the nervous woman, the neurotio woman, the poseuse. "To be healthy," said the specialist. "a woman should, as everybody knows, have a full bust and an uncramped waist. "If a woman adopts the kind of 'slinker-slouch' figure her chest contracts, and nothing is worse for the , general health than a~^ contracted chest. "If you want to grow beautiful or to retain your beauty, do not indulge in sarcasm." This is the advice given by another beauty doctor. "Why should anyone be habitually sarcastic?" she asked. "The person who is always on the alert to 'take it out' of someone else has probably Just as many faults as those on whom he or she looks with contempt. "The sarcastic woman has the least chance of any woman to keep beautiful. Nothing draws out the wrinkles as much as a sneering countenance. "A woman who really has suffered can retain her beauty even though she is somewhat lined, but the sarcastic woman can never hope to be beautiful. She becomes dyspeptlo and miserable."

I heard a fashionable shoemaker say that out of every ten women who came in to be fitted, not more than one. has a shapely foot, and the greater proportion have more or less deformed ones. Their feet have been spoiled by care* lessness and neglect, by ill-fitting OF} cramping shoes and by ungainly, un* graceful walking. •; If you want to keep your feet as shapely as nature made them, and free from corns, calluses and similar disfigurements, observe the following rules: 1. Never forget that the feet are hard workers and have to bear the burden of the whole body. Sit down when tlrefc. Do not rest one foot at the expense of the other. 1 Bathe the feet every night Usesoft warm water, and be liberal with soap.

The society prepared for the arrival of a box of ctirios, which was tb be sent by a missionary in Africa. A letter explaining the contents of the box; said there would be two dress worn by the native women of Africa. Arrangements were completed for the entertainment, and two women were selected to wear the native costume. Since the arrival of the box, the subject of the proposed entertainment is one that admits only of conversation behind the palm of one's hand. The costumes consisted of two strings of beads, with a fringe a few Inches long. They were not worn by the Rushville women. Discouraged. "Don't you dance?' "No," replied. Mr. Meekton.

By JOSEPHINE DE MARR. Hunt ant nests and destroy them. If the little pests persist in troubling, scatter pdwdered borax about the infested plants. Remove stalks of tea-roses that have bloomed; stir the soil about them and apply some good fertilizer, either liquid or solid. On wash daya soak the soil with soap suds. Many of the annuals if sown now, will make a fine show in the fall. Don't apply liquid manure when the soil is dry. If the soil is dry and you do not wish to wait until it rains, soak the soil with-water and then apply the liquid manure. If you do not have the so-called German Ivy, procure cuttings, if possible, this summer. It~makes a charming plant for the window even though it does not bloom. Don't wait until late in the smnmer to gather the seeds. Seeds fronft Jhe very first blooms .will give much finer plants than those produced In* the late smmer. •** It is a good practise to tie a cord around the stems of an extra-fine bloom and thus separate it from its fellows. Watch these marked pods and save the seed before It is scattered. Wistaria seeds will grow if planted Just as soon as they mature. Mulch, mulch, mulch. Lawn clippings make a fine mulch, and don't forget that the dust mulch acts like a charm, in dry, hot weather.

Puerto Mexica—General Huerta, who last week resigned the provisional presidency of Mexico, and his party of refugees here decided Sunday that he and Blanquet, accompanied by three-or four aides, would sail on the German cruiser Dresden. The others will go on the steamer Mexico of the Mexican Navigation company, which had been chartered for this purpose. Railroad Is Repaired. Mexico City—The gap in the railway between Vera Cruz and Mexico City has been closed. President Carabajal Sunday*informed the British minister he had issued orders for the immediate completion of the work. A trip of investigation through the district surrounding Mexico City Sunday disclosed the fact that the recent reports of the activity of the Zapata adherents were exaggerated. The federals still hol'd Contreras, Tulyahualco and Zochimilco. Zapata bands are operating in small numbers, committing depredations on plantations and isolated settlements, but there has been no concentrated attack on any place. The governor of the federal district, Eduardo Iturbide, is inspiring confidence by his energetic efforts for the protection of the capital against marauders from the outside and disorders from within. Members of the diplomatic corps are prepared to guard their nationals. Pass Permission Is Granted. Vera Cruz—Lieutenant-Colonel Izunca, commanding the federals^ at the Gap, announced Sunday that a proclamation had been issued at Mexico city by the minister of war, granting all persons belonging to the so-called revolutionary forces permission to pass through the federal lines and proceed to whatever point they wished, either individually or collectively. The only condition imposed is that they shall not carry arms. Colonel Izunza said that the new administration does not recognize the existence of a revolution and considers all Mexicans on equal footing as citizens. r**5? Thick or Thin, Sir?

It is only a simple question of trying It for oneself In order to know the joy of returning health as realized by an Ills, young lady. She writes: "I had been a coffee drinker nearly all my life and it affected my stomach —caused insomnia and I was seldom without a headache.

"When a suffragette is orating at the top of her shrill lungs, it is a good thing for you men to yell at her, 'Ah, go home and wash the dishes!' or 'Ah, go home and mind the baby!' That shuts her up; it shuts her up every time." The speaker was the bftter, perhaps too bitter, anti, Mrs. Miriam Mills Alden of Woonsocket. The occasion was an anti-suffragette lecture, "Feminism and Free Ixive." Mrs Alden here paused In her Impassioned argument tcrcrack a little joke: "All suffragettes," she said, are not homeless, but some of them are home less than others." Covered.

Katherine quailed before this sudden outburst. Then the hope of influencing the woman to divorce her husband spurred her on and she replied: "Yes, there is." "Is she—" Mary was unprepared for the admission in spite of all she bad said. Her voice broke— "Is she young?" "Yes," came from Katherine. Even at that moment it occurred to her that the situation was unparalleled— this wife asking her—"the other woman"— about herself. "Many years* difference In our ages?" "I think so." "Is she pretty?" "People say she Is." Mary experienced a sion of feeling. "I don't believe It," she cried, refusing to believe what was not pleasant to believe. "Dan Slade wouldn't You're mistaken." As Katherine made no reply, she went on. "But you seem to be sure?" "I'm certain," answered Katherine, evenly and without emotion. "Do you know her?" The lace at Katherine's throat fluttered with her rapid breathing. "I—yes, slightly." "Why, Dan Slade have another woman in my old place! So that's It?" as Katherine remained silent. "I'm much obliged. I'll keep my word. He can have his divorce any way he wants it. She can have him and his name and his money," her voice became shill. "Here, I'll give you something to give him," and ehe darted in^o the adjoining bedroom. "It will remind her of something she hasn't got—his youth! His youth! His youth! See?" and ehe thrust before Katherine's eyeB the picture of Dan Slade when they were first married, the picture *she had always worn. "That's the way he looked when he was young. Tell her she can keep i t " And ehe forced the brooch into Katherine's reluctant fingers. "She can see what she's missed! Well, I'm done with it—and with both of them. There!" and weak from her frenzied outburst she sank into a chair. There was Intense Bilence for a moment Katherine stood as if petrifled. Mary sat with brooding eyes, thinking. She was the first to speak, trying hard to be brave. "Well, there's one comfort It ain't as though I bad any children. Who'd ever have thought we would have come to this—herl in this bouse. If I had had a baby, here's where it would have been born—and that's the real reason I stick to this house—it ain't spunk, "We were both very young,'* she talked meditatively, more to herself than to Katherine. "I was awfully happy. I couldn't wish you any better, dear," %ad she turned impulsively to the girl, who sat amazed, breathlessly watching her, "than hoping to have a child by some young man you cared for. There's no happiness like i t But one day there was an accident in the mine and they came and told me be was hurt—and I thought, p'raps, he was dead—and—my sudden fear for him robbed us of our little «Mld and me of all the hope of ever—" Her voice broke with the agony of all •childless good women since the beginning of lime. "See—in there," she pointed through alia open door into the next room, "In the bureau drawer—the one by the window—there's all the little things I got ready years and years ago," her voice quivered piteously. "And now I'm old and there's another woman— a younger," the tears were streaming down her cheeks now and Katherine's heart ached in sympathy with her. The girl's throat was dry and her eyes blinded by tears as She repeated over and over again to her accusing conscience: 1 didn't know. I didn't know." "Jf we'd only had children," Mary fobbed, losing herself In complete collapse. "Nothing counts but children. They're all we get out of marriage whan we're old. If we'd only bad children, he couldn't have left me like this," her shoulders shook. Katherine started to her feet, ungWe longer to bear the sight of the woman's suffering. < — " D o n ' t cry, Mrs, Blade, dont cry,'* ,- / ' V , > ' * - # • Ood!" Mary exclaimed. "How axe t e-goffi' to live out my life! I aamt I can't I'm used to him, and BOW he's going^td ,have another women these years. I can't help lovin* him," she sobbed. ' Katherine watched her, aghast at the vision of a love euch as she had never before realized. The hot tears filled her eyes and her lips trembled. Unable to fight any longer, she stretched out her hand and touched the older woman gently, almost reverently. "Oh, please—please don't cry like that," she begged. "I can't stand i t Oh, please don't," and suddenly her .emotions swept away her control— her remembrance of why ehe had come—of everything but this slender, sobbing little woman. She flung her arms around Mary, burying her face on her shoulder. The woman in her rose up and rebelled at what she.had been about to do. Love, not of the world, mastered the worldly in her, as the tears overflowed. "Mrs. Slade, you fight," she sobbed, breathlessly. "Never mind what! You fight! He loves you best after all. I've seen t h a t Don't you give in! You'll get him back. She's an outand- out bad, heartlees, selfish creature. She's bad—bad, stifling every good, honest impulse for money—money! You're right to hate it. It is a dirty thing. If he were poor she wouldn't look at him. Don't you mind and don't you cry, Mrs. Slade. You fight—fight them—all." and she loosened her arms and sank sobbing and heartbroken, into a chair, throwing her head on her outstretched arms in a perfect abandon of repentance and grief. For a few moments the two women sobbed brokenly. Mary was the first to recover. "There, there," she cried, patting Katherine tenderly on the shoulder, "don't you cry for me." Suddenly Hayes appeared in the et>orway. He looked first at Mary, then at Katherine. Katherine, her race still burled, her sobs still uncontrolled, had not heard him open Jhe door. One sight of the two women was enough to convince him that in the encounter the stronger had been defeated and that the gentle little woman whom he loved had come off the victor. Mary stood looking from Hayes to Katherine in bewildered perplexity. Suddenly her eyes lighted with a thought. She began to read her answer in Bob's eyes, but he turned to avoid her glance. She looked again at the sobbing girl and as she did so the conviction came to her that "There, There, Don't You Cry for Me." Katherine was the woman her husband was planning to marry. 8he-} opened her mouth as if to speak, and turned c&estlonlngly again , to [ Bob. But Hayes could hot meet her eyes. Suddenly Mary pointed an accusing finger at Katherine'* bowed head. "She! Oh-h!" she gasped. Katherine, unconscious of the revelation that had just taken place, was still sobbing bitterly, but with sweeter tears than she had shed for many, many years. The sight'of the girl's misery called for all the treasures of love and sympathy in Mary's nature, sweetened by long years of forgiving and self-eaeriftce. "There* there, there," she crooned, as she patted Katherine's head. Overcome with an emotion she could not control, Katherine clasped her arms Both too surprised t*V:*«Uet* his1 own,ayes, came up to par. "Katherine!" he exclaimed. ; "Oh, Bob, I'm so ashamed," Katherine confessed as she got to her feet and stumbled into his arms, crying out for forgiveness and the love she had BO cruelly and so thoughtlessly flung aside. "I understand, I understand." Bob was very gentle and forgiving as he took her in his arms. "I love you, Bob," she sobbed. "I don't care who hears me say it. I don't care. I love you" "Come," he said, leading her tenderly toward the door. "We'll talk It over on the way home." f _ ; the d r i v e down 5*4 gfcrea him aft appetite. -*' "Cooking a stew,.Mary?" ho asked rather abruptly and inconsequentially. "Just one of my old stews," Mary's voice was indifferent She was thoroughly disgusted with her husband, C H A P T E R X I . Before Bob could open the door it was pushed in from the outside, and as Katherine looked up, she looked straight into the eyes of Dan Slade. For a moment the room was electric with the intensity of the situation. Then the girl lifted her head proudly and met Slade's eyes again. In them he saw a light he had never seen there before, a light of soft tenderness and deep joy, a look that made his heart start as he realized what he had lost. "Good morning, Mr. Slade." she said coldly as Bob led her out Into the summer sunshine and to life and love. As Slade, hat In hand, stood gazing at his wife, Mary realized that for the first time in all their married life she had the advantage. For once the roles of the humble and the domineering were reversed. There was a long pause, awkward only for Slade, for Mary was quite at ease. He coughed several times, and then, in a manner he thought quite appropriate, asked: "What did that girl^come here for —Miss—er—" "Oh—forgotten her name?" came from Mary, mockingly. "Miss Strickland came just for a visit." "Well, what did she want?" Slade demanded. "She came to find out what I meant to do." There was a world of irony in Mary's tone. "What has that got to do with her? I don't approve of a woman coming into my house to find out what you— I don't like it! It's a bit of impudence. What else did she have to Bay? Did she—er—" "She's not a very confidential girl," returned Mary, evasively. "I see. So she and Robert have { made up?" Slade considered this rather a master stroke. By continuing sucli questions he might get at the real state of affairs. "Yes." "Well, well—I'll have to do something for them." Slade was paternally patronizing, but he did not de- i ceive Mary. "Your business out here today must be very urgent What is it?" Slade tried frantically to find a reason for his visit. When he had left town it was for the one reason of trying to bully Mary into leaving the cottage and agreeing to a divorce. With the complexion of matters so changed, he was at a complete loss to explain his visit He was irritated and annoyed. He was not used to having the tables so completely turned on him. More than that, the little cottage never looked more Inviting. As a matter of fact, Slade had often found the demands of his new life considerable of a nuisance, and as a whiff of the savory lamb stew came to his nostrils, a memory of the peace and contentment of the old life flashed through his mind. Nothing at the club had been especially tasty of late. More than that, Looked Straight Into the Eyes of Dan , Sfade. now that she knew just what he bad planned to do. Jealousy and outraged pride were in her heart. This man, for whom she had worked and whose very faults and failings she had loved, had been deliberately planning to thrust her aside for a woman who had enjoyed only the sweets of life, a woman whose youth and beauty and social position put Mary completely out of that contest The very thought was salt in her wounded heart. "I'll stay to dinner, if I may," announced Slade, removing his gloves and laying aside his coat "Certainly. Take your old chair, if you like." There was none of the enthusiasm that might have been In Mary's voice if he had come earlier in the day. She was formally, painstakingly polite. "You can talk over your business while we eat." Slade watched his wife from under lowered lids as he ate. He feared that Mary knew everything. This calm, constrained atmosphere was more baffling than an emotional outburst would have been. "Why did you come, Dan?" Mary was rather enjoying his discomfiture. "Oh, yes, I—I'll take my coffee now, if I may, good and strong." Mary dropped in two lumps and the right amount of cream, more from long habit than any desire to please him. "I came out here to— Do you know I rather like my dinner at noon hour, like we used to have it here. Aren't you eating?" v "Oh, yes, I'll eat," replied Mary, "but you haven't told me Why you came out" (TO BE CONTINUED.) ~v'."

No. 4, Box 65, Holland, Mich.—"My^child'B trouble began by getting red and sore around her neck, and her face, behind her ears, under her arms, and different parts of her body were affected. The eczema appeared in a rash first It was wet and looked as if it was sweaty. It seemed to itch and burn so that she could not sleep or rest It got so bad at last that behind her ears was one cruat or sore so that I had to cut her balr. There was a hard crust covering her neck. She could not have her clothes buttoned at all. I could hardly change her clothes. It caused an awful diflgurement for the time. She would cry when I had to wash her. "We had her treated for some time but without success. I got one cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cutfc cura Ointment and I had not used more than half 6f what I bought when she was all cured." (Signed) Mrs. G.j C. RiemersnjUi Ate--1¾. 1914.

Onoe there was a Husky employed to crack the Whip around a smoky Works that did not offer an attractive Vista from the Car Window, although it blossomed with a fragrant crop of Dividends every time the Directors got together In the Back Room. Most of the American Workingmen employed in this Hive of Industry came from remote parts of Europe. Each wore his Head entirely in front of his Ears and had taken an Oath to support the Constitution. It was the duty of the Husky' to keep these imported Rabbits on the Jump and increase the Output. He made himself so strong with the big Center Poles that they declared him In every time a Melon was sliced and when U came time to Scramble the Eggs and pull off the grand Whack-Up, he was standing at the head of the Line with a Basket on his Arm. So it came about that one who started in a^Thatched Cottage and grew up on cold Spuds and never saw a Manicure Set until he was 38.years of age, went home one day to find Gold Fish swimming about in every Room and Servants blocking the Hallways. He had some trouble finding Rings that would go over his Knuckles and the Silk Kind felt itchy for. quite a while, but finally he adjusted himself to his new Prosperity and began to deplore the apparent Growth of Socialism. This rugged and forceful Character, to whom the Muck-Rakers referred as a Baron, had-a Daughter who started out as Katie when she carried the Hot Coffee over to Dad every Noon. WhenvBhe got her first Chip Diamond and Father switched from the Dudeen to Cigars, she was/ltnown in High School Circles as Katherine. And when Pop got in on the main Divvy and began to take an interest in Paintfngs, the' name went down on •the Register at the,Waldorf as Kathryn, in those peaked Sierra. Nevada Letters about four inches high. Katie used to go to St. Joseph's Hall once In a while with Martin, the Lad who helped around the Grocery.

AIL the starving members of the Up-Agalnst-It Association were waiting at the Dock to cop the prospective Meal Ticket. Not one of them had ever Shaved or Worked, and each wore his Handkerchief Inside his Cuff and had Yellow Gloves stitched down the Back and was fully entitled to sit in an Electric Chair and have 80,000 Volts distributed through the Steel Ribs of his Corset. As soon as Kathryn began to meet the Roqueforts and Camemberts she discovered that they had Lovely Eyes and certainly knew how to treat a Lady. Kathryn had been brought up on Philadelphia Literature, and even during her most ambitious Social Flights she had encountered the Type of Man who remains on the opposite side of the Room having trouble with his White Gloves. She never had been against those Willing Performers from Gascony who wore Red Ribbons and Medals and who rushed over to kiss her Hand and then look deep Into her Eyes and throb like a Motor Boat. This class of Work simply shot her Pulse up to 130 and made her think that she was Cleopatra, floating in the Royal Barge and surrounded by crawling Slaves. ' When a certain Markee crawled into her Lap and purred into her Ear and threatened to curl up on the Rug and die If she Refused him, she simply keeled over with Excitement. After she recovered she found herself actually Engaged to the Representative of one of the Oldest Families in the Saucisson District of the Burgoo Province and as manly a Chap as ever borrowed Money from a Toe-Dancer. She hurried home to keep it out of the Newspapers and to tell those who would listen that American Men were Impossible. Then the Markee came over with his Solicitor and a Bottle of Chloroform and a full kit of Surgical Instruments, and the Wedding was fully reported by the Associated Press. The Captain of Industry sized up Son-in-Law and knew that when the Money was gone, the Markee could always get a Job hanging up Hats in tht Check-Room of a first-class Table D'Hote Restaurant From the window of her Chateau in the Burgoo Province the Lady Cashier can see the American Tourists going by in their hired -Motor Cars. Her Cheek flushes with Delight when she happens to remember that in another Three Months or so Friend Husband will come home long enough to show her where to sign her Name. What Is more, she has the Privilege of walking out at any time and pick* ing Flowers with the Understanding that she is not to let it be known that she Is related to any of her Relatives on either side of the Atlantic.

MOST BEAUTIFUL IN WORLD American Ethnologist Ungallantly Awards Palm to Women of Tehuantepec, Mexico. Professor Starr, the ethnologist, holds that the native women of Tehuantepec, Mexico, are the handsomest in the world. These women are not like those we usually term Mexican in a broad sense for the latter have, of course, a mixture of Spanish blood which gives them a special type of beauty, but the territory of Tehuantepec retains the old Indian blood which has been kept pure and has resulted in wlllowly tall maidens, physically perfect, with creamy skins and beautiful eyes. They wear a curious headdress which resembles somewhat a halo of plaited j;auze in a bright color. Their dresses are bright with color and the richer among them wear a fortune In jewelry, but it is a fitting setting to the type. Superb in carriage, unblemished morally and physically it is no wonder that Doctor Starr is enthusiastic over these Amazons. Berlin a Seaport. Germany proceeds steadily with the development of her canal system, and in. the near future a number of important extensions will be open for traffic. The Berlin-Oder canal is a noteworthy engineering feat. It starts on the west side of Berlin and runs in a rough semicircle to Olderberg, where it falls into the river. It is about sixty miles long and has coBt something over £2,000,000 to build. It connects the capital of the empire with the greatest Prussian port; it binds Berlin and Stettin. Berlin and Oder have, of Course, been united for some considerable time by the Finow canal, but that waterway, with its score of old-fashioned locks, and the fault of narrowness, has long been out of date. The new canal will carry cargo vessels of 600 tons, and that vessels of such size will now go direct from Stettin to Berlin really means the opening of a new epoch in German internal traffic development. It makes Berlin virtually a seaport "Hie Regular Way. He—Is your uncle good at golf? She—Mercy, no! He's very profane. —Boston Globe.

A Nebr., woman has outlined the prize food in a few words, and that from personal experience. She writes: "After our long experience with Grape-Nuts, I cannot say enough in its favor. We have used this food almost continually for seven years. "We sometimes tried other advertised breakfast foods but we Invariably returned to Grape-Nuts as the most palatable, economical and nourishing of all. "When X quit tea and coffee and began to use Postum and Grape-Nuts, I was almost a nervous wreck. I waa so irritable I could not sleep nights, hid no interest In life. "After using Grape-Nuts a abort time 1 began to Improve and all these ailments have disappeared and now I am a well woman.

Coldwater, Mich.—A cyclone swept over northern Branch, southwestern Calhoun and northern Hillsdale Friday afternoon shortly after 2 o'clock, uprooting orchards, blowing down barns and destroying telephone lines. The destruction was especially heavy at Union City, where lightning temporarily crippled the lighting plant and wind unroofed the Peerless Portland Cement company's factory.and the Michigan Central freight house. Many dwellings were also unroofed and two barns near town, belonging to Alex McCrary and Herbert Johnson, were blown down. A barn belonging to L. Guilford was struck by lightnfhg and burned. Corn fields were blown flat and fences were carried away. Whole orchards were uprooted. In Union City the streets were left an almost impassable tangle of uprooted shade trees and telephone soles. It is considered almost a miracle that no one was injured. Great damage is also reported from Athens, several miles northwest of Union City in Calhoun county. The lighting plant there was also struck by lightning and disabled. The storm, which apparently moved toward the southeast, lasted about half an hour and was accompanied by driving rain. The damage in Union City is at least $60,000 and the damage in the neighborhood and at Athens will raise the total for this vicinity to at least $100,009. Donald Shoemacher, an employe on the. Doubleday farm near Athens, was seriously Injured when a team attached to a binder ran away and threw him under a barn, which a few minutes later collapsed under the terrific winds. Ninety per cent of the barns and sheds la Union township, Branch county, and in Burlington township Calhoun county were ruined. WILL TEACH BOOKKEEPING M. A. C. Will Instruct Farmers In Better Business Methods. East Lansing, Mich.—To make every farmer his own bookkeeper will 'be the purpose of a special extension course tov be established this fall by the Michigan Agricultural college. The effort is to be part of a broad movement contemplated with a view to inducing husbandmen to conduct their farms on a more business-like basis, and the • lessons in accounting will be taught in connection with the proposed one-week schools to be held under the auspices of the college in various towns and rural communities throughout the state. Through the medium of the new course the East Lansing institution hopes to make each farm a well-organized business unit Lumber Plant It Burned. Saginaw, Mich.—The plant of the Bliss & Van Auken Lumber Co. was partly destroyed by fire Thursday night. The loss is estimated at upwards of $90,000. The blase is believed to have started from a small electric motor whidh furnished power for the log conveyor. The plant will be rebuilt at once. The Bliss ft Van Auken plant was {he first lumber mill built on the Bag* inaw river, and the last of them to remain in operation.

BARNES, JR. Oyster Bay, N. Y.—Theodore Roosevelt has been served with papers in the $50,000 libel brought against him by Wm. Barnes, Jr., chairman of the New York state republican committee. Col. Reosevelt said he would not be deterred from attacking Mr. Barnes by the suit, but on the contrary would assail him the harder. He expressed the hope that he would have the opportunity to take the stand against Mr. Barnes before election. BOARD DISAPPROVES PLANS Limited Liability Policies Will Not be Rscognized Hereafter by Compensation Board. Lansing, Mioh.—Since the worklngmen's compensation law was enacted two years ago there have sprung up in Michigan what are called interinsurance on reciprocal exchanges. These exchanges operate under power of attorney given them by each employer operating under them. At the 1913 session of the legislature agents of these exchanges had a law passed authorizing them to write limited insurance policies. The industrial accident board now officially decides that it will not recognize any of these limited policies on the ground that beneficiaries under the compensation aot might, in certain cases, be deprived of a material portion of the money benefits they are entitled to. For illustration: A corporation might take out a limited policy for $10,000 in one of these reciprocal exchanges, which would be as far as its liability would go in any one accident. If. the corporation had an accidenl where the injuries and fatalities were as great as at the Mexican Crude Rubber Co. plant in Detroit a few months ago, and had to settle each case by itself, the cost ,te the corporation, by the strict terms of the compensation act, would be about $40,000. But If It had a limited policy of one of the reciprocal exchanges it could* net be liable for claims in excess of the face value of its $10,000 policy.

Lansing, Mich.—The industrial accident board decided Thursday, that a city policeman is legally an "employe" and not an "officer" and being an "employe", the city that employB him must pay him compensation if he is injured in line of duty or must pay hie dependents if he loses his life on duty. According to the workragmen's compensation act, "officers" of corporations, municipal or private, do not come under the set, hut only "emploes." Big Fire at Grand Hsven. Grand Haven, Mich.—Fire of unknown origin early Thursday morning destroyed the Grand Trunk elevator and the Manitowoc freight shed here, with an estimated loss of $60,000. The elevator, which was empty, had a capacity of 55,000 bushels. The Grand Trunk car ferry Milwaukee, which was lying at its dock, was scorched, but not badly damaged, and a large quantity of material Intended by the railway for a new car ferry slip was burned. ADSTRB MAY WAR ON LITTLE SERVIA ANSWER TO U L T I M A T U M SEEMS NOT TO 8 A T I 8 F Y BIG POWER. MINISTER GIVEN PASSP0R1S Proposal to Submit Portion of Demands to the Hague for Settlement Not Accepted. London. — Sunday's developments, appear to furnish new proofs that Austria is fully determined to make war on Servia, and the possibilities of a general European war seem greater than have ever confronted the present generation. The Servian reply to the Austro- Hungarian ultimatum concerning the recent assassination of the grand duke and his wife was an acceptance of almost all the imperious demands, ex^ cept that Austrian officials shall participate in the investigation and fix the responsibility for the anti- Austrian propaganda. Servia proposed an appeal to the powers at The Hague for the settlement of that feature. Notwithstanding this' humiliating surrender, which was more than Europe expected of the proud -little nation, the'Austrian government Sunday gave the Servian minister his passports, which may be construed as a virtual declaration of war. Austria committed an act ef war by arresting the chief of the Servian general staff, Gen. Putnik, near Budapest, but he was soon released by the emperor's direct command. A formal declaration of war is not expected because Servia is not a party to The Hague convention, which requires this. The suspension of all parliamentary and Judicial institution has been decreed in-Austria and an iron-clad censorship has drawn a cordon of secrecy around the country so that the outside world is in complete ignorance of everything happening there except what the government wants the world to know. COMPANY IS FINED $10,000 National Cash Register Loses Important Suit in Supreme Court. Lansing, Mich.—The supreme court Saturday found the National Cash Register Co. guilty of unlawful restraint of trade and fined the concern $10,000. The company will be restrained from doing business la this state until the fine is paid. This decision was made by the court in the case of Henry J. James, started in 1909. James, representing the American Cash Register Co., oharged that the National Cash Register Co. was violating the anti-trust law, and Attorney General John E. Bird, on this complaint, started actios against the Dayton manufacturers. The court's decision declared that the National Cash Register Co. "has offended by acts of misuser, bat the ends of justice will be satisfied by a substantial fine." The defendants must also pay the costs in addition to the fine. The court took the view that inasmuch as there are from 17,000 to 18,000 users of National cash registers in this state, these business men would be greatly embarrassed if the Ohio oompany was ousted from Michigan. Heat Causes Judge te Relent Saginaw, Mich.—All ef the prisoners sentenced to the city jail Friday were released by Judge R, W. Martin, of the recorders court, late Saturday night. The Judge went to headquarters and said it was so hot in his home that it was uncomfortable and he knew the prisoners must be suffering. There were but three prisoners in the pen. None of them stopped to thank the judge as they left the station, but all of their faces showed plainly that they were appreciative.

Purchase Perishable Foods In Smaller Quantities and More Frequently— A Little Intelligent Care All That Is Necessary. The care of foods in the home is a problem that has solved itself to some extent in the last decade. At least it is not so serious a question as. It was, for the food supply is more easily reached by both city and village dwellers daily. This allows purchasing perishable foods in smaller quantities and more frequently where one has no refrigerator. Ice Is one of our greatest blessings In summer weather and cool running water or a cool basement is in the same class. After once having these comforts it seems as though it would not be possible to do without them. Yet there are thousands of women who have kept house for years and never haveJiad ice or a basement for cooling and preserving food. It is not economy to do without these things, but it is good to know that it can be done. Some foods have better keeping qualities than others; with meat, lamb, veal, young chickens and fish are most troublesome to keep. If meat is to be kept any length of time It should be well cooked, as this destroys all germs and bacteria. After it is cooked it must be kept so no more can reach it by being closely covered. However, it must not be absolutely air tight and it must not be covered untO It is quite cool. As often as any of the; neat is used It should all be heated, as this heating is really the best preservative. The best Tecentacie to keep any fodd in is unglaasd crockery. Lettuce, radishes and such fresh vegetables should be wrapped in heavy, wet paper and placed in a wet, empty flower pot with a cover over i t Milk will keep sweet longer in a large vessel than In a small one. The best way to keep it without ice is to pour it into an unglased, wide dish or crock and cover it over with a sheet of cotton. This cotton permits the air to reach the milk, but keeps out all Impurities. Set the crock In cold water in the coolest spot you can find. Almost everything can be canned now, and this is the best means of saving left-over fruits. Where you have a cellar, but no Ice, keep it cool by airing It for an hour every morning, and then, before the sun grows hot close It as tightly as possible. See that it Is well screened from flies and clean and sweet as it can" be made. If you have no cellar, but have a yard, look for a shaded place, and have a hole dug there and walled with unglased brick. Fit this with a trap door, and inside place a sine or sheet iron box with a close cover. In this you can place a crock of butter, a dosen or two of eggs and a pot of cream and keelrthem reasonably cool. Such a receptacle is called a "camp-box.M If you live within reach of Ice, by all means try to have a refrigerator, for you can save the cost of ice and its container many times over by buying food in quantities. Many neighbors share their Iceboxes, and this is sensible co-operation. If you plan to do that have a refrigerator with two food compartments and the ice well in the center. Place it in the basement or on the back porch so each can use it without intruding on the privacy of the other. "~" Blackberry Jelly. In making blackberry jelly it is a good plan to have one-third of the juice from barberries or rhubarb, and the other two-thirds from blackberries. The sugar should be in the same proportion as for strawberry jelly. — • • ' * • - Baked Egg With Cheese. Make a cream sauce, season and pour half into a baking dish. Break in four eggs.

Nations Are Now, as Ever in the Past, Divided by Language- Source of Trouble Is That Political Boundaries Are Not Coterminous With Linguistic Groups. (George A. Doraey, Curator of Ethnology. Field Museum, la the Chicago Herald.) An orphaned mongrel cur having for the first time in 500 years got enough spunk up to take his tail from between his legs, begins to wag it and feel (gfowing pains. Along comes a great bag dog and says: . "Put that tail down—and gimme tJsftt bone." We see this sort of thing nearly every day. Once upon a time little old Servfa was an empire and very nearly overcame the -Byzantine empire, which probably would have changed the whole of European history There night have been no Turkey in Europe. That was in the fourteenth century, under the mighty Dusnan. Explains Austria's Action. Servia is now a poor, wretched little peasant kingdom—ont half as big as Illinois in alee, with less people than the city of New York. And now the house of Hapsburg would wipe little Servia off the map! Even though the process involve more lives and money than any war of any time! That is the life. You or I In the house of Hapsburg's shoes would do the same thing. It is the law of existence. Nature works today as in the stone age or when saber-toother tiger fought the mastodon. Why does Austria-Hungary, the Dual Monarchy, want poor peasant Servia? Hasn't the: Dual Monarchy, with its internal babel of confusion, enough trouble already? Why Others Are Interested. Suppose the Dual Monarchy does want Servia, what is it to Russia? Suppose Russia does object, what Is It to Germany? Suppose Germany objects to Russia's objecting, what business is it to France—or of England? Supremacy. Balance of power. Human nature. Life. I propose to analyze this whole situation. And right here let us clearly recognize the fact—two .facts: The contest is not economic but psychological in Its fundamental nature; psychologic laws are not economic laws. To put It another way, the desires which lead to action in eastern Europe are not based on Christian ethics or rational procedure, but on cer« tain thoughts. Things are what we think they are; and thinking depends on the point of »wv INMrtratlng the Point. lism vs. Pan-Slavism. If this, we have traveled let?, me give an lllustrat* M M , , ijEportant city of Aus* tftfned that I would get better In shops and otheremployed English first Of glish is not generally undere i ^ but German is.

More than half of the wars of Europe have been fought by parties mu< tually unintelligible. Broadly speaking, all European languages belong to the Aryan group. The most important exception is the Magyar, a dialect of the same language spoken by Turks and Finns How Divided by Language. Of the Aryan tongue there are three great general divisions in Europe—Romance, Teutonic, Slavic. We are interested only in the latter two. And of the Teutonic German is spoken by 80,000,000, of which 10,000,000 are in Austria and 2,000,000 in Hungary. There are 140,000,000 Slavs in Europe. From this it appears that the present political boundaries are not coterminous with linguistic groups. Right here in this fact we have the seed of present and future trouble and a clue to the cause of most of the wars in eastern Europe (through 2,000 years. Slav Situation in Europe. To get before lis the full significance of the fact suggested by the map let us consider the linguistic complexion of these countries. Russia is a veritable hodgepodge of tongues, but of her Slav population alone we have at least two distinct elements today bitterly opposed to each other, with the possibility, if not the probability, of a third, which will seek recognition. As against Russians proper there are over 10,000,000 Poles, and of the remaining Slavs there are 8,000,000 Ruthenians, or Little of White- Russians, as they are sometimes called. Of the general Polish situation I shall speak later. In Germany there are over 3,000,000 Slavs, chiefly Polish. " « Of Austria's 30,000,000 population only about a third is German, the remainder being Slav, of which there are over 6,000,000 Czechs or Bohemians, 5,000,000 Poles, 3,500,000 Ruthenians, and a million and a quarter Slovenes. Many Tongus* In Hungary. Hungary is even more diversified in tongue. The~ Magyar element (10,000,000) is equaled by the non- Magyar made up roughly of 2,000,000 Germans, 2,000,000 Slovaks, one-half a million Ruthenians, 3,000,000 Serbo- Croates, all of the Slavonic tongue, and about 3,000,000 Roumanians who do not speak Slav at all, but a Romance language. We need not here consider the linguistic affinities of the Balkan states. It is enough to say that Servia is purely Servian and Slav, Bulgaria is Buigar and Slav (though the basis of blood of Bulgers is, like that of the Magyar, Asiatic). The population of Montenegro, about half a million, are Slavs of the Servian branch. Roumanians are of mixed origin, but the Roumanian tongue is spoken by 12,000,000 people, of which five and a half million are in Roumanla (92 per cent of Its total population), the remaining millions are found In the Duel Monarchy, Servia, Bulgaria and Russia. People Develop Languages. Millions of people today speak Polish whose ancestors"a tew generations ago weren't conscious of the fact that they spoke any language at alL Today there is a Slavonic literature; 50 years ago no one even thought of such a thing. The millions of Boh* mians had become almost entirely Germans, and never before have they been so thoroughly Slavonic as today. Bohemian hostility to Germany has been called a passion. It was not so very long ago that the language of the Hungarian parliament was Utln; Magyar was held fit only for peasant talk. Today the bitterness between Magyar and Slav is as strong as between German and Pole. A few years ago there was no consciousness In Galicia of linguistic distinction between Poles and Ruthenians; Ruthenian peasants were content to remain serfs of Polish nobility. There was no Ruthenian literature; Ruthenian was not a polite language. Today there are distinguished scholars who seek to found a Ruthenian university. Rouses National Spirit. And this brings us to a strange and Interesting phenomenon that has swept across Europe, new even around the world, in the last half century; the rise of a linguistic consciousness, which in so many instances has sought expression in statehood. Primitive man knew his enemy as one of strange tongue, and language was the basis of social organization. That was the condition in Europe till Greece, and later Rome, began the game of conquest. The holy Roman empire gathered. these' diverse savage hordes under a single government, but never into a homogeneous state. The modern empires of Germany, Russia, Austria have continued the old game. And the tendency to centralize and build up even larger empires grows apace on the one hand, with the other tendency equally strong for the diverse elements of these modern states to resolve themselves into ani e n t tribal elements, based on linguistic lines. Trouble In Barring Language. And the whole trouble is due to the fact that European statesmen were not far-sighted enough to know that often the easiest way to get something is by pretending you don't want it. The Polish language was never so dear to the Poles of the kingdom as when Russia forbade Its use ill public places and for public purposes. The sympathies of the Roumanians of Hungary are not so much with the flag of their country, or their loyalty so much for the emperor of the Dual Monarchy as for the flag and the king of Roumanla, , The case of Poland is probably familiar to all. It is enough here to recall that by a process of dismember ment, which took place about 100 years ago, the ancient and honorable kingdom of Poland,which had had a long and illustrious career, ceased to exist. Lion's Share to Russia,. The greater part of the kingdom fell to the lot of Russia, with the ancient Polish city,of Warsaw as its center. A smaller portion fell into the hands of Austria, and today forms the province of Galicia, with its two important cities, Lemburg and Cracow. A still smaller portion, with Posen as its center, passed into German hands. Russian Poland was permitted to have a constitution of its own from 1815 to 1813, and its own government till 1864, at which time it quite lost its administrative independence. Four years later its government was absolutely incorporated with that of Russia, and the Polish language was denied a legal existence. Coercion Causes Discontent Possibly Russia governs Poland better than 'the Poles could have governed it themselves. U is conceivable that in the substitution of the Russian for the Polish language (and the two are closely allied) the Pbles would have little, if anything, to lose. It Is quite within the bounds of imagination to believe that Poland as a part of Russia could participate in a much larger world than could have been possible to her had she remained Poland. * But it is contrary to human nature to be coerced; it Is contrary to hujSian nature to be compelled to give up that to which we have become habituated. The Poles of Russia naturally have been discontented. They have1 not been satisfied with their representation in the Russian duma; they are dissatisfied with Russia's treatment of the Jewish question in the kingdom Russia's efforts at repression not only double but redouble Polish effort to gain recognition, to win freedom. There are millions of Poles who dream of and dope for a nrasHted. toe. and independent kingdom of Poland. —it answers every beverage requirement—vim, vigor, refreshment, wholesomeness.

DECLARES WAR ON THE CZAR 4 Paris—With Count Von Schoen, the \ German ambassador, still in Paris, Germany began hostilities against / France Sunday and at 6 o'clock mes- - f " ' 1UMJSS from the east reported cannon- V sdiag i* the direction of Longwy. Previous messages, however, said the JjrftRiloa of French territory by Gem** tmopt was at Longlaville village, vhlea has 800 inhabitants and is near t*e«wy, and at Bertrambois, a village of 1,000 inhabitants, near Cirey Sur Vezouze in the department of Meurthe Et Moselle. At the same time the important customs station at Petit Croix, six miles from Belfort was Bhelled by German troops. A train filled with troops arrived in Luxemburg Sunday morning and the government of the Grand duchy is now in the hands of the German military authorities, who have installed headquarters at the government house. All railroads and telegraphic communication was immediately cut off. News of the progress of hostilities is vague and conflicting, owing to the severe censorship everywhere imposed. From the Kusso^German frontier come reports that Russians invaded Germany near Schwinden. Servia, the original cause of the upheaval, seems to have been almost lost sight of. The Austrians, according to reports from Nlsh, have virtually ceased operations against Servia in order to meet the greater danger in Russia. \ Montenegro has mobilized to assist Servia and is reported to be bombarding Cattaro, in Dalmantia. It would appear that Germany is taking the fullest possible advantage of her supposed superiority in rapid mobilization over France. The plan of the German emperor, according to military observers here, is to vanquish France in the interval before Russia will be able to create serious trouble on her northern frontier. It is supposed that Russia mobilization will take about three weeks. First Battle in Air. Brussels—The first conflict in the * air In history was waged Sunday night over the little village of Toul. At sunset the villagers were sent into* a panic by the air of a monster Zeppelin dirigible hovering above them. * It was momentarily expected that the war airship would drip bombs into the village and excitement ran high when a French, military aviator got oat his machine and rose to a great height above the Zeppelin and began riddling it with bullets. The huge air craft fell to the ground and in descending the French aviator lost control of his monoplane, fell and was instantly.killed. ] .. To Finance Marooned Americans* ^ v ' Washington—The state department Sunday evolved a scheme for financing Americans who have been marooned abroad. Announcement was made by Secretary of State Bryan Sunday night that the department will accept deposits of cash to be placed to the credit of Americans in Europe. . Consular, and diplomatic agents of the United States will thereupon be instructed to issue to Americans thus provided with a credit at Washington, cash to the '* amount of credits deposited. If consuls are unable to obtain cash to deliver to the Americans thus provided 'lor/ they will Issue 'a special certificate guaranteed by the United States government to be offered 'as' legal tender, Mr. Bryan is of the opinion that in oases where actual cash is not obtainable by the American officials abroad* these certificates will answer the, purpose admirably and -will be accepted generally in payment for food, lodging* and transportation. Approval of this plan was voiced by bankers in Washington. r. German Mobilise Hst jfoostv ' lin—Events in the European crista developed Saturday with startling Vapidity. The German ultimatum to Russia, demanding that Russia the, mohtii»atie% of lief army, KAISER WILHELM. expired at noon and at 5:15 p. m. the German emperor signed a mobilization order. At 7:30 p. m. the German ambassador at St. Petersburg, Count Von Pourtales, delivered a declaration of war in the name of his government to the Russian government and the entire staff of the embassy left St. Petersburg immediately. Although after the warlike speeches delivered by the German emperor and the imperial chancellor at Berlin on Friday, no other result could be expected, hopes that the dread event might be averted had been raised by the intervention of King George of England in St. Petersburg and the fact that the German reichtag was not to be convened until Tuesday. Hence the actual declaration of war had not been expected for another day or two. Now the die is case and Europe is to be plunged into a general war, which has been the apprehension of Europeon statesmen for generations. Mobilization orders to the German army affected 5,000,000 men and a similar number were under arms in Russia, The German emperor and his advisers have maintained to the last that they made supreme efforts for the sake of peace and that the last of the series off earnest appeals from Emperor William to Emperor Nicholas was a telegram repudiating responsibility for the calamity threatening the world, on the ground that while Germany was engaged in mediating with Austria-Hungary at Russia's request, Russia by her general mobilization, was threatening Germany's safety. The first shots in the Russo-German war Were exchanged between patrols Saturday afternoon near Prostken, 120 miles to the southeast of Koningsberg. There was no bloodshed, however. FRENCH SOCIALIST KILLED Jean Leon Juaree Is Shot By 8tudent In Paris Who Is Thought Crazy. \ Paris—Jean Leon Juares, leader of the Socialist wing in the chamber of deputies and editor of L'Humanite, was assassinated Friday night as he sat down to dine in the Croissant, a famous restaurant near the Bourse.

E. How let t, attorneys at Mo well have started a suit for William F. Sobrotzberger and wife against Dr. Daniel A. McLaughlin of Detroit for the sum of ten thousand dollars for alleged false misrepresentations and fraud. The trouble grew out of the porch as of the old Nancy Beebe farm in Putnam township by Schrotzberger from Dr. Mc- Laughlin. When Supervisor James Harris was taking the assessment of Potnam township he marked this farm at 14500 but upon consideration he decided he had made it a litlle high and asked Mr. Schrotzberger about it. The ensuing conversation brought out the real condition of affairs and led*Mr. Schrotzberger to seek redress,he having signed a contract to pay $15,375, for the farm and personal property irith six per cent interest H e had traded to Dr. McLaughlin a 18000 house jwinpn^^ r ti w 1in« £ Ik 1« ^6 ?; & <D in ^ m ^ (D % A In w •••www* "Yes" Compare Prices, Then Compare Quality; Then Compare Assortment; Then Compare Stocks!

CHAPTER XI—Continued. "I came out here today to remonitrate with you for living In. this house," Slade blurted out, after a pause, "but—rye sort of changed my mind," and he reached for the pickle jar. "These pickles fairly make my mouth water. They're very good," he went on, appreciatively. "Wsll, what's changed y o u r Mary refused to be diverted by the subject of dinner at noon or the all-tmporteftt matter of pickles. T o u know I'm kind of glad to see 4b* place again, and you know, I ttk* tfcfti stew," and he proceeded to fcssy t»jH** w l t h *•• matter of eatln£— «ajtfclag to gain time under Mary's BSSfSiles*, persistent questioning. "Have a Mat**," suggested Mary, "and—tell me, why you came out here." Slade looked longingly toward the window, as if he expected to find an inspiration for a suitable answer there. "Why, the old rosebush out there yet, holding the fort!" he exclaimed. "I muBt have a look at It," and leaving his dinner, he went over to the window. Mary hurriedly refilled his plate with stew the moment his back was turned. * "I declare!" He was still enthusing over the rosebush. "Quite a bush!" He was beginning to fee^ more at ease. He had the satisfied feeling that comes to every man when his stomach is full. He felt very benign toward Mary, even toward Katherine and Hayes. "I'll tell you what I am going to do, Mary," he began. "You like this house—always did. Well, you can stay here. I won't oppose it There's nothing in the world you want I wouldn't give you—nothing. Now, what can I do for you? What can I—" Mary shook her head and laughed quietly. "Why, Mary!" Slade was distressed at having his patronizing advances treated in such a manner. "Oh, Dan, Dan!" Mary laughed, mockingly, unable longer to conceal tier feelings, Slade realized In an, in: stant that Mary knew everything. "Well, I'll tell you one thing!" he blurted out "I never cared a button for that girl—If that's what you mean! I swear I didn't!"' < "Who said you did, D a n f Mary's manner was prWokingly calm. "I never did! I'm not taat kind of a man, and you know it," he protested. "Who's accusing you? I never mentioned her name. But, Dan, she's very young and very pretty, and I don't blame you as long as you were going to try another wife. Tou might as well have had one who was young and pretty." Slade pooh-poohed vigorously. "I hope the next one you get will be just as pretty, for your sake." "There isn't going to be a next one," protested Slade, after the manner of all men. " "Oh, yes there is; you've got the idea now. The mere fact that, you missed this time will keep you at it" "I've -got enough." Slade saw that frankness was the only way out of i t "I'm not going to make a devilish fool of myself again." "Don't let your coffee get cold " reminded "Mary, tantalixlngly. "Now, Dan, yon wanted me to go away, and I will. I've made up,ay mlntl." VBut | don't want you'to g#. away," Slade remonstrated. "We can arrange everything right here and now. This, determination of your* is pretty sudden, isn't KT "Not as sudden as your change of mind when yon first came into this room today." "Well, where are you going?" "Oh>,*I ddnVtaew/! Wary replied, indifferently. "What does become of divorced women?" "Now, Mary,'dont talk like thai; it ain't natural from you." This time Slade was doing the pleading. T o u can't go off alone like this." "Oh, can't I? I could a week ago, or an hour ago. Why can't I now? I can't wait to pack my things." ghule gazed at his wife in amasemesL If the patient rag on which ha hssd thoughtlessly trampled to long had suddenly been transformed into a snarling animal,. Slade could aot have been any mora surprised, / "Why, Mary, see here,'' he began, than stopped/ "Oh, h—I, what's the tttjst- You meet me half way in the way I want to live, and you'd batter coma home. Wall open the house to town again, and well make the hast of things. There! We'll make the best of things." "How can we?" argued Mary. "If I was old-fashioned and behind the times and held you back a week ago, why wouldn't I now? Try as hard as I might, you said I couldn't help you. I'm just the same today as I was a week ago. I haven't changed a bit I'm just the plain little dud I always was. What's true Monday is true Tuesday. We can't get back to where we were once." "You meet me half way and 111 do my part." Dan had never known her to be obstinate like this before. Usually his slightest wish had been her keenest desire. "Dan, you wanted that divorce?" The question was ominous, but Slade had to admit the point "Well, you're going to get it!" "But I don't want it now." "You're going to have it, Dan Slade," and Mary's mouth set like a steel trap. "You're going to have it If I have to get it myself!" "What do you want with a divorce when I'm wHling to give in?" stormed Slade, losing his patience. "How long have you been willing to give in, Dan? What did you come out here for?" She paused, but he did not answer. "You came to force me out of this house. Don't tell me you didn't, because I know. And I know why you didn't do i t You came in here and suddenly you got a look at that girl and me! And it staggered you! For once, something swept you off your feet! You knew then that I'd found it all out You knew I knew everything. And now you've beejLjJJrown over by that girl. She's throwti you over! Between the two of us—you're caught And that's the real reason that you're not standing here shaking your finger In my face and telling me to go out, to get out to go." Mary stopped for breath, and walked up and down the room before she proceeded with her bitter denunciation. "And the worst of it is that after 'the girl's gone you actually ask me to take yer back—to take yer b a c k - Just as they all do. It's another man 'come home to mother.' Well, here's one woman/that's not going to 'take her husband back!' No, sir! If you pushed me aside for ambition, I might think It over, but you've pushed me aside for that girl's twentyseven years of prettiness," and she pointed an accusing finger at the door through which Katherine Strickland had gone ' hand-in-hand '•• with her sweetheart "That's what you've dojie—for twenty- seven years of youth, for twenty.- seven years of figure and eyes and freshness and all the rest of i t You put me aside for a younger woman"— the very .utterance almost lost Mary her courage, but she kept on. "You put me aside for a younger woman. Now, no' matter what you do, you can't get ma back!" "Now, Mary," Slade begged, beginning to feel that he was losing everything worth while. "I take off my ring," Mary continued, Ignoring his interruption. "Now it's ended," she finished as she laid the ring on the table. Slade strode up to her in the manner which had kept her subdued all the 80 years of their married life. 'Tou put that ring on again," he commanded. "It's yours! You put that ring on." "No, sir! It's off for .good." For the first time Mary's attitude was one ot stubborn temper. She was enjoying complete mastery for the first time In her life. "Wild horses couldn't have got It off yesterday—I thought It was part of my nature! But now, now I'm going to ask you to go. I've got work to do. I'm closing the house. I'm closing it for g o o d - forever." i fOur had said aU she had to say. *few that .foer' mind was made up, it was characteristic of her to turn to action, i h e started 4 hurriedly and noisily to clear up the table, scraping the plates and piling them up readyto carry Into the kitchen. "For God's sake, Mary, don't!" protested Slade, too bewildered to know what to do or aay. ' "Go along," urged Mary, as she put the sugar bowl in its place on sue sideboardT "Mary, If you persist in this, 111 go back and 111 smash that house In town—111 smash it to pieces," ha threatened. "Ill sell i t I'll give it away—break It up! That's what made all this trouble! You know that! Try- -tog to live up to that d—d house. Tou told me not to build % and this is what I tat for it" "Go back and smash It You've smashed other things that hurt me worse." "Mary, you're not going to turn me oyt of this house where we've lived BO long together?" "You've turned yourself out. Go, now." Mary'B wrath gathered force as she repeated her command. "Ah, come now, Mary—" "You go," warned Mary, "before I say something I'll regret." She waa scarcely hearing what Slade was saying now—her ears were full of the things he had said to her in her own home, and that night in Senator Strickland's library. "Mary!" The one word was full of protest and a plea for forgiveness. "Go before I say it!" It waa all Mary could do to speak quietly. "Mary!" again the* word spoke volumes. "No use," she replied, as she picked up a pile of dishes. "You pushed me aside for a younger woman, and now you go," and with both hands full of dishes ahe kicked the kitchen door open with an angry foot, and proceeded to busy herself at the sink. "Mary! See here!" he ceiled. There was no reply. He walked absently to the sugar bowl selected a lump of sugar and started to s£t it, brushing one hand with the other, and then, still absent- "You Qol" Warned Mary. minded, ignored the napkin within easy reach and wiped his fingers down the front of his coat. It was the old Dan Slade, a reversion to type. Then he quietly picked up his hat and gloves and coat Mary heard him going, and came back into the room. "Dan," she said as she stretched out fier hand to him. "I can't hate you—I Just can't. We're going to say good-by like two old friends." He took her hand eagerly and held it After a moment she pulled it away and resumed picking up the dinner things. Slade looked at her longingly for a moment, then quietly opened the door and was gone. CHAPTER XII. New York was knee deep in a blizzard that had been raging all day. Sleet and snow swept and eddied In blustering gales at every street corner. Taxicabs and motors plowed their way along, their occupants bundled up to their eyes in wraps and furs. The few pedestrians breasting the bitter east wind felt the cold to their very marrow. With their shoulders hunched and their heads bent forward, they hurried along under tile lee of the buildings, envying the fortunates who could afford the shelter of a cab. One woman struggled bravely to keep her umbrella up until she came to the bright lights of a cheap restaurant, where, out of breath and covered with snow, Bhe closed the unwieldy and inadequate protection and went in. In her long fur coat and her trim hat covered by a soft gray veil, she seemed out of place as she made her way to an empty table. All around her were shabby figures, chorus girls having some toast and cocoa after the show, a pair of redfaced chauffeurs, and all the other typical patrons of the grlddle-cake restaurant Laying aside her wraps and putting her umbrella against the table, mindful of the numerous signs which betrayed the fact that the management was not responsible for lost articles, she ordered a cup of coffee and some crackers and milk. "Talk about your western blizzards!" exclaimed one of the chauffeurs. "If this is a sample of your eastern weather 111 stick to my Job with Governor Slade and you can keep your Job with Governor Suiter." • "Why didn't you go into the hall and listen to your boss talk?" asked his companion. "Say, did you ever hear the same speech over and over? It'B a great speech, but hearing it ever since we left home—" the pauBe was significant "Do you go everywhere with your boss?" "You bet," answered the other, "but thlB Is the flrBt time we've been East" "Say, they call your old man the 'divorced' governor, don't they?" queried Sulzer's man. "Yep." Slade's chauffeur lapsed monosyllabic. "Great note—a man runnln' for office and being divorced at the same time," came the comment "But he got elected Just the same. Governor Sulzer said he was all right when he put our car at his disposal." "But you noticed my old man wanted me on the box, too?" chuckled the other. "When I'm not drivin' I'm along Jest the same." "What do you do?" "Oh, answer questions mostly. He's a great responsibility—a governor is —I have to keep my eye on him." "Why? Did they ever try to assassinate him?" "Nope! Nearest they came to it was takln' him through Central park on your New York city pavements. But they did present him with a baby catamount in Carson City. I had to receive it." "What did Mrs. Slade dor' Sulzer's man was patently more interested in the divorce than any other matter connected with Governor Slade. "Was she a high-stepper?" "Naw," came the disgusted reply. "Well, what'd he do then that they got divorced. "Say, are you looking for trouble? Where I come from they don't criticize my old man. He runs things out there. I've had enough of this 'divorced governor* business. I don't know whose fault It is. She wanted it and he didn't, and she got it! When a woman knows what she wants," and he banged his fiat down on the table, "she's going to get it! Now, shut up and have another cup of coffee." (TO BE CONTINUED.) LITTLE. HARM FROM METEORS Narrow Escapes Have Been Recorded, but Deaths or Serious injuries Have Been Pew. The area of the earth's surface occupied by towns and villages being comparatively small, the possibility of a shower of stones falling within a town la extremely minute; the likelihood of a living creature being struck, says Lazarus Fletcher In the new Encyclopedia Britanniea, Is still remote. The first Yorkshire stone—that of the Wold Cottage—struck the ground only ten yards from a laborer; the second, that of Mlddlesboro, fell on the railroad only 40 yards away from some plate lay era at work; a atone completely burled Itself in the highway of Kaba; one fell between two carters on the road at Charsonville, throwing the ground up to a height of sis feat; the Tourinnes-la-Grosse meteorite broke the pavement and waa broken «•#». „ The Krahenberf stone fell within a few paces of a little girl;, the Angara atone fell close to a lady standi ing In her garden; the Braunau mass went through the roof of a cottage; at Macao, in Brazil, where there waa a shower of stone, some oxen are said to have been killed. At Nedagolla, in India, a man was so near that he waa stunned by the shock; while at Mhow, also in India, a man was i killed In 1827 by a stone which is a trie meteorite and fs represented by fragments in museum collections.

ENTHUSIASM WENT TOO FAR Managaing Editor's Bright idea Might Have Displeased Some of His Irish Readers. Censor Bans Costly Film.' • O. A. Redford, the British censor of films, who was . formerly censor, of plays, has banned the cinema version of Laurence Cowen's drama, "The World, the Flesh and the DeviL" The film" cost $50,000 to produce and hundreds of contracts have been made for its exhibition In London and the province*, while foreign Tights have been secfired for the film to be shown, on the continent, lu America, India, and even as far away as Slam and Japan. Redford allowed the production of the play, but held that a scene depicting a young girl's betrayal w«tv objectionable In the film. ) Charles Edward Russell in "These Shifting Scenes" tells many amusing anecdotes of a managing editor named Goodman to signalize the Pigott disclosures which defeated the case that the London Times and the English Tories had worked up against Parnell. Mr. Russell writes: On the night when Parnell's vindication became overwhelming and complete, Mr. Goodman issued an order that every article and every item in the whole paper, big or little, should end with the exclamation: "A Great Day for Ireland!" It was tempting fate to do such a thing, and, of course, the inevitable happened. "One Hennessey, the janitor of a public building In Brooklyn, playing on the top floor with his children, fell over the railing of the air well and was killed. 'A Great Day for Ireland!'" "William Mulrooney, a Widely known philanthropist of the East aide, choked to death on a chicken bone. 'A Great Day for Ireland!' " The editor-in-chief Col. John A. Cockerlll, saw the proofs in time to prevent a riot and extra compositors were called in to take out the offend* ing lines. Domestic Tragedy. "It must be done!" "With the air of an empress the young wife swept from the room. The young husband groaned aloud and prepared for the worst. There was a dread pause. "It is done!" she exclaimed, triumphantly, as she placed on the table the first pie she had ever made in all her life. Not Always to the Swift Budd—So he beat you at chess?

Special Award Will Be Made to County Organisation Which Showa Largeat Array of Prize Winnera at the Fair. Special plans are being made for the poultry exhibit at the Michigan State Fair, Sept. 7-18. The Fair In past seasons has given impetus to this Industry, and the coming exhibition will excel In its scope and attractiveness anything the organization so far has done. A contract recently was closed by George W. Dickinson, general manager of the Fair, for uniform cooping, in which the birds will be housed. This cooping is of wire, so as to permit a complete examination of the birds by the passerby. It is perfectly sanitary, and by being uniform no one entry has an advantage over another. In addition to the premiums given for the. various classes, the Fair management has announced that a special premium of $50 will be awarded the county organization which shows the greatest number of winning birds at the Fair. Keeps Its Fascination. Frank Coward of Bronson is the board member in charge of the poultry department; Daniel Thomas of Pontiac is superintendent and J. W. Mulinix of Toledo and Earl Hemenway of South Haven the Judges. "The fascination of poultry raising for both city and country dweller has not lost any of its force," says Dr. Dickinson. "In fact, We are looking at it as a matter of necessity. The city man finds^hat a flock of chickens helps him cut the cost of living, and the prices eggs and fowls are bringing make poultry raising pretty profitable for the farmer. The State Fair meant* to help in every way possible, and its exhibit this year has never been equaled In Michigan." ADDS TWO NEW DEPARTMENTS China and Fine Arte Exhibition Shc^wn In Main Building. In response to a demand which has been growing steadily for the past few years, the Michigan State Agricultural society has added materially to the scope of its needlework department for. the sixty-fifth annual Fair, which will be held at Detroit Sept 7-18. The department hereafter will be known as the needlework, china and fine arts exhibition and will be housed; as before, in the Michigan traUdia*.

PfNCKNEY The St. Mary's Picnic People-lff Pinckney and surrounding localities Always look forward with great anticipation to the annual St. Mary's picnic and this year was no exception to the general rule. Tfye weather was perfect, the recent rains having settled the anst and cooled the atmosphere, putting everyone in the best of spirits to fully enjoy the excellent repast for which the ladies of this parish are noted for providing. The North Lake Band furnished splendid music for the occasion and kept everyone in a joyful mood. There were approximately 800 dinner tickets sold. The Home Coming, the previous week, did not interfere any with the large crojwd which attended. Take it all around, the picnic was a grand success and netted the society $800. The Hon. James Hammei of Lansing was toast-master of the day and was fully equal to the occasion. The other speakers were Wm. H. McKeighan of Flint and Frank L. Dodge of Lansing. Their talks were much enjoyed by all present. The dance in the evening was attended by people from Gregory, Howell and Dt-xter besides our towopeople. The music was furnished by Barnard's orchestra of Howell. The music beintr/ good the crowd congenial, everyone enjoyed a royal tone. The ball-game between Gregory and Fowlerville after dinner was a feature of the day. Guy Kuhn and Roche McClear were the battery for Gregory and Kuhn was easily the hero of the hour, the visitors being completely at his mercy during the entire game aud was on the job when at bat, getting two three base bits. The Fowl.rviMe pitcher did Rood work but received poor support. The garner as a nwift one and closed by a score of 7 to 4 in favor of Grsgpry. i TICLE5 r. hi • « * • " .

Tokio—The Japanese government sent an ultimatum to Germany Sunday night demanding that German warships in the far east be withdrawn or dismantled, and that the Germanleased colony of Kiau-Chau be surrendered, The ultimatum expires next Sunday, giving Germany just one week in which to send her reply to the Tokio government. If Germany within this week of grace does not accede to the Japanese demands, the Japanese government will take such steps as it sees fit. The fact that the Japanese fleet left Japan some days ago for an unannounced destination and that a considerable body of Japanese troops, estimated at 50,000, have been on transports awaiting an order to sail for a similar length of time, indicates that Japan is prepared to use such force as may be necessary to enforce her demands. In its ultimatum, as the terms of that instrument are described by the usually well informed newspaper, Jiji Shimpo, the Japanese government demands that Kiau-Chau be turned over to Japan pending its return to China under the terms of the 99-year lease under which it came into German control in 1897. It also demands that German warships in far eastern waters be disarmed and that Germany withdraw all her warships from the China sea. Will Uphold China's Integrity. The sending of the ultimatum to Germany was announced Sunday. At the same time Takaaki Kato, Japanese minister of foreign affairs, after a conference with George W. Guthrie, the American ambassador at Tokio, issued a statement which was intended to allay any apprehensions on the part of the United States government and people regarding Japan's intentions. The statement in broad terms assured the United States that American interests In the far east would be safeguarded by Japan and that Japanwould uphold the integrity of China. Germans Slowly Advanee. London—Pushing forward by mere weight of numbers, the German advance across Belgium Is slowly but steadily proceeding and soon must come in contact with the allied armies, which, according to an official communication from Brussels are in battle order at some point unnamed. The Belgians in the outpost skirmishing are said to have inflicted severe checks on the German forces, but on the whole the German wing has kept on its way and has reached a line from north of Namur to Haelen which suggests that the first big battle will be fought somewhere between Louvaln and Diest, where the allies probably will try to bjock the rotfds to Brussels and Antwerp and prevent the German attempt to render north Belgium untenable. French Army Moving. Further south, French troops have entered Belgium through Charleroi going to the relief of their neighbors and to aid>in any attack directed toward Namur, while in the east the French are reported to have secured possession of ridges in the Votges mountains and to hold the passes of Le Bonhomme and Sainte Marie-Au- Mines, through which Important roads pass and which it Is declared gives them great strategic advantage. It Is declared officially in Paris that a union of the French and Belgian armies has been effected and an interchange of commanders brought about Hordes of Russians are reported to be marching toward Prussia on the One aide and to Austrian Galicla on the other. In the latter country theyi are said to he In the vicinity of the Styr river, which is on the route to Limberg. The official news bureau of the army and admiralty has issued a warning to the public against placing the slightest reliance in the many rumors current daily regarding alleged '•Victories or defeat! or concerning the WHERE GERMAN BOMBS KILLEB FIFTEEN Scene in Luneville, France, where a Zepplih airship dropped bombs, killing fifteen persons. In the photograph the, inhabitants are watching the flight of a dirigible over the city. arrival of wounded soldiers or disabled ships of Great Britain. "These are, without exception, baseless," the warning says. Germane Reported Repulsed. All along the Alsace-Lorraine frontier the advance guards armies have come in contact and, according, to reports from Paris, the Germans have been driven back everywhere, with loss. After a brilliant action, the Fcench have recaptured Blamont and Cirey, two points on the Lorraine frontier, due west of Strassburg, and, putting to flight the Bavarian corps, have found a footing in the long-lost province. The French also have retaken Thann, in upper Alsace. Strong French forces are now in possession of all the passes of the Vosges mountains, from the west as far as those leading down to Kolmar. Further south, French forces are ready to proceed over the flat country toward Mulhausen. Woman Tried and Shot Geneva—Mme. Favre Schwartz, of Basel, a young and beautiful Swiss lady, married to one of the richest men in Alsace-Lorraine, was shot after a court-martial. She was accused of attempting to blow up an important tunnel on the railway line near Leopoldshall. Mme. Schwarz made no secret of, her intense French sympathies. Having been found guilty and sentenced to death she shouted "Vive la France/', and she died with this cry upon her lips. She was well known in the best cosmopolitan society not only of Basel but of Berlin. Government Does Not Approve Loans. Washington—The United States government announced itself Saturday as opposed to the floating of loans in this country for the benefit of any of the belligerent powers of Europe. Switzerland, a neutral country, inquired through her charge d'affaires if she might float a loan I n the United States and was informed that the restriction would not apply to neutral countries. J. P. Morgan & Co. was approached by a group of private bankers who wished to know if a loan ever should be desired by the French government whether it could be floated in the United States. The Morgan firm announced that regardless of its, legal right to engage in private commercial transactions at its own risk, it would take no action which the state department might disapprove. * Inquiry was made of Secretary Bryan several days ago by the bankers as to what the attitude of the American government would be. Saturday the Swiss charge d'affaires also presented an Inquiry. To cover both inquirieet the following pronouncement of policy was issued by' Secretary Bryan at the direction of President Wilson: "Inquiry having been made as to the attitude of this government in case American hankers are asked to make loans to foreign governments during the war in Europe, the following announcement is made: "Tnere is no reason why loans 'should not he made to the governments of neutral nations, but' in the judgment of this^xovernment loans by American bankers to any foreign nation which is at war is inconsistent with the true spirit of neutrality." Is a Step Forward. This principle represents an advanced attitude on the part of the United Stat'es on a much mooted question. Hitherto loans have been floated in the United States as well as other neutral countries for the benefit of belligerents. During the Russo-Japanese war loans for Japan were floated in this country and in Europe while Russia obtained money from different countries in Europe. International authorities have been agreed that while the loaning of money is forbidden to any neutral government her subjects might engage in the practise of involving the responsibility of their government, Many writers, however, have argued that by furnishing the wherewithal to continue a war, the loaning of money was inconsistent with a true spirit of neutrality and Washington government has decided to adopt this view. Investigation Under Way. Washington—The movement of the Federal government to investigate increases in food prices with a view to possibly criminal prosecution is under full headway. Attorney-General Mo- Reynolds has sent to every United State* district attorney this circular: "The department, by its special agents in various- parts of the country, has instituted an investigation into the marked increases in the prices of foodstuffs since the outbreak of the European war with a view of al> certaintng whether the increases are due to any combination or combinations in restraint of trade or other unlawful actions. Please co-operate by communication to the department information which you can obtain on the subject together with your opinion in respect of the appropriate action to be taken." BRIEF NOTES OF GREAT WAR Paris—Ambassador Herrick has personally guaranteed the expenses of the full accommodations of the French line. steamships Rochambeau and pagne, for the carrying home stranded Americans. * London—A dispatch to the Daily News from Rotterdam says that the Holland-American steamship line has placed its large premises in the Hook of Holland at the disposal of the Dutch Red Cross, with special view of the need in event of a naval battle in the North Sea. Honolulu—One of the results of the European war that is being felt here is a growing shortage' of coal, Hawaii is entirely dependent upon shipping for her^fuel supply and practically ail of the coal brought here for commercial purposes has been carried In foreign bottoms.. Brussels—Reports that General von Emmich, the German commander who failed in the first attempt to take Liege by storm, is dead, are widely circulated here. The *rar office saya that these reports were brought in by wounded, German prisoners and that they are unconfirmed TWO SCHOOLS OF STRATEGY CLASH French and German Methods Put -to Test. THEORIES EXACTLY OPPOSITE Outflanking of Enemy Chief Feature of German Tactic*—French System la More Varied and Lees 8impie. The clash between the armies of the French repuhlio and the German empire will prove of extraordinary Interest to military tacticians for many reasons. Results should settle, for some time to come, conflicting principles of strategy which at present are somewhat of a puasle. There is only one element capable of confusing the issue, namely, the totally different racial characteristics and temperaments, in so far as they interfere with the practical application of the tactical theories which hare been worked out by. the ablest minds of the two great military organizations of these powers-. As far as can be learned, little fault can be found with the condition of preparedness of both armies of the Franco-German frontier. The German forces, if anything, outnumber those of France, but when one is dealing in millions the diffenence, proportionately considered, is really not so great as it seems at a glance. Even a slight superiority in maneuvering the huge army corps, and a little greater ability to have them in the right place at the right time, may more than overbalance any discrepancy in the total number of men in the field. The German organ teat Ion'la the older. Its present system is built on the foundation supplied by the victorious armies of the Franco-Prussian war. In discipline, training, mobilisation and principles of moving large bodies of troops, It is the logical successor that one would expect to find, making allowance for the development of modern weapons, transportation facilities and equipment. Both nations have efficient aviation corps. Germany has the advantage in the number of dirigibles, while France has some 750 aeroplanes already in commission, against about 400 of the Germans. French Artillery 8uperlor. In the artillery arm it is generally admitted that the French are superior. The gunners are faultlessly trained, and the guns themselves are of a more modern, powerful and efficient type. To sum up, Germany *outnnmbers France approximately 5,000,000 to 4,- 000,000 in total war strength. She Is supposed to be slightly superior in general discipline and training, while in* two special arms, aviation division and artillery, France has a noticeable advantage. This is how the materials with which the rival tacticians will have to work, compare. Strangely enough, the underlying principle or spirit of the military ON ganisation of each nation would seem to fit the other better. It is the French who have given the greater emphasis to complex dispositions of troops for purposes of security and sureness, and the Germans who permeate themselves^ with the idea that simplicity of tsfctlcs, coupled with energy and fierceness of attack, brings success. Col. de Grandma!son, a French tactical authority, lecturing to a class In a school of military instruction recently, drew a sharp distinction between the two systems, pointing out the strength and weakness of the practical application of the German theories, at the same time sharply criticising certain phases of the French tactical system which, he said* tend* ed toward confusion and lack of decisive action on the field of battle. Outflanking Paramount The single thought embodied In the German tactics is the outflanking of the enemy. It is more than a thought; it is a rule. The German company, brigade or corps commander, never stops to consider what he will do. It goes without saying that he w^ll at* tempt to outflank his adversary. The only question he has to decide is how he will do it. Eternal, energetic offense is hit other rule. Once he has laid his plana for the attack, and made bis disposition of troops, he gives the flnaT order for the advance. The thing is settled. The various* units of his com* mand go forward, either to victory or eimplete'repulse. There is no withdrawing or rearrangement of troopi during the progress of the fight, no change in plans. Everything le rap* poeed to have been provided .for before the engagement The units of bis command are to receive no fur* ther orders which would cause the slightest hesitation In their mertfceieV ical and complete carrying oat 'flQlsi prearranged plan. ^ One cannot help but admire tfj)s» spirit of determination and csMistittl necessary to the successful esurfy^sjt out of such a system. The German troops have been trained with this idea specially In view, and they are) permeated with a spirit of self-confidence and fierce contempt for their adversaries. The morale of the German soldier is wonderful. No mat* ter what he is brought to faoe with* he will fight unfiagglngly until ha drops. French School of Tactic*. The French tactics, on the other hand, are considerably more varied and less simple. The maneuvers of. the French commander depend largely on the formation of the enemy. Great* er stress Is laid on finding out the exact disposition of his troops befora formulating the battle plans, and the officer in command retains his troopi subject to his contrdl throughout the engagement While frontal attacks are admittedly dangerous, the French theories provide for their use in certain contingencies, and the command* er is not tied down to the use of flanking movements exclusively. Then, too, the rules laid down elaborate formations of outposts, advance guards, supports and reserves for pro* tectlon against surprise. The only criticism made by Col. de Grandma! B on is that the system, while theoretically perfect, has become so elaborate as to be somewhat difficult to handle in the field, and that the officer who follows their spirit to the> logical limit will be likely to find his troops so dispersed In small parties) as to be scattered over as large a front as the Germane, an extreme ten* dency which is somewhat to be deplored In the* light of the lessons of * the Russo-Japmnese war, in which engagement after engagement was won by both,the Russians and the Japanese, traceable directly to the employ* ment of desperate frontal attack and bayonet charge, notwithstanding the) terrific efficiency of fire or the mod* em rifle. Rojrever, it would seem that the) advantage lies with France, for they control their system, and are sot controlled by it, as are the Germane. The first moves of the German campaign, the Invasion through Luxemburg, the crossing of the " Cirey—where, by the way, machine seems to have en< snag in the preliminary ej-fMAoifct —indicate that an attempt, made to duplicate the campaignlwof former years, but it is an entirely different French organisation which will have to be overcome if Germany l i to avoid a crushing defeat in whloh the life of the empire may be ground out between the upper and nether millstone.

"wi ,\<> All the domestic sheep in America have originated from importations, moat of which have been made from European countries since the beginning of the nineteenth century. The fine wools are found upon the western ranges and to a lesser extent through the Ohio fine-wool region. They are undergoing some changes to improve the carcass and increase the length of wool; same foreign blood is being used to do it; nevertheless these sections may still be regarded as being line wool in character. In Tennessee, Virginia and Kentucky, the spring lamb region of America, Southdown rams are very popular. Through the central farming sections of the country the medium-wool breeds have taken possession, the long wools largely being in locations more favorable to them in the North and [ojpthwest, notably Canada, Utah, Montana and Oregon. It It not always possible to say that is one best breed for any sec- There may be two or three that do equally as well, but It is liable that some breeds are far suitable than others for a given location. All the breeds have their good qualities and most of them, if properly handled, will give good reeulta in some section of America. The <r>*fetssn *a to get the ones best adapt- •A •*• particular conditions. Some have a larger number of highiSstlviduals than others, but a JjMPceasrttl breeder can Improve >any'orthem. 'V Aa a rule, but one breed should be ••elected. Where there is more than one breed upon a farm it is a difficult matter to keep the gates all closed at the proper time*and prevent crossing. i!f several farms are available more can be handled, but the dimiultiea in management are much in- r<ereased. The most successful sheep (breeders in America handle but one reed. The fact that there are more than in any other class of farm .May in itself make the selec- 04* breed rather difficult. tjje deciding factors should conditions, feeds available, «ltitude, {fee particular line of the induatry to be followed, and popularity of the breed in the section in which the farmer Is located. The effect of climate is strikingly illustrated In the evolution of the Sheep industry of the extreme Northweal The Willamette V/alley In Oreton, now so famous for its long wools, was once partly occupied by finewool sheep. The large amount of raiatell, which comes in a gristle, caused the aeeds that becaa* tsaJsjOsVaf to grow aja« • • n m i jsajst'Stri the ^ i j j p l i p l w r i leds were pjisa^Qiere.

Ttar Ogfa wmnty, nttnola. One -breeds were introduced and the industry assumed a different aspect. Their long locks act as a thatch, carrying the water off, and these breeds thrive as they do in few places except their native counties in England. The kind of feed produced is of importance. The Jarge breeds have been veloped upon land that has produced abundantly. They are capable of taking care of a larger amount of feed, such as the moist fertile lowlands produce, while the smaller breeds succeed better upon the less abundant fare of drier and less fertile pastures. There is evidently some connection between the general high quality of the smaller breeds and the scanty, more nutritious feeds that they receive under natural conditions. If they are removed to the lowlands they lose much of their characteristic type and quality. The effect of altitude upon a breed is also apparent, but how much of this effect is due to the amounts and kinds of feed it is difficult to determine. Certain it is that the mountain breeds are smaller, more active, more hardy, and better able to care for themselves than their lowland neighbors. The importance of hardiness in the mountain breeds was shown during the last century along the Scottish border. Whether the breeder expects to specialize upon some particular line of sheep farming should likewise be instrumental in making a decision. If winter lambs are to be produced a breed must be secured that will breed at the right season of the year, and not all will do this. The Dorset, Merino and Tunis have given the best satisfaction thus far. The popularity of a breed will often have its effect in Influencing one's decision. Some breeds have been developed under conditions that are more general, or else they have a wider range of adaptability than others. The popularity of several breeds in this country is due to this fact No better illustrations of these can be mentioned than the Merinos and Shropshlres that are found from Maine to California. Some of the minor breeds need men who will place them before the public, as there 'can be no doubt as to the effect of a wide-awake breed* association in advancing a breed. Some breeds are regarded as needing more care than others; at any rate they become more unsightly if denied this attention. However, no flock will thrive upon mismanagement. 10$. appearance is always desirable, na4 sometimes it Is of prime importassja, The use of sheep for keeping the lawns of parks and country places in trim has been in effect in this country for years and here attractiveness is Indispensable. county sent 21 automobiles with 109 farmers representing 25 townships. A total of 4¾ automobiles made up the train. Among the interesting things done on the farm visited is the pasturing of 60 head of cattle on 40 acres of sweet clover. ^The clover la also used successfully as ensilage. NEW FABRIC FOR CAPES 18 CALLED THE TEDDY BEAR, AND 13 POPULAR. 8ort of Woolen V>lour, Light of Weight But Warm—Shirring* and Plaiting* for the Autumn and Winter 8easons. Take Care of Your Sheep. There is an "old adage which if kept in mind and acted on by every feeder not only with h i s sheep, but with all his live stock, he would do much bettor than the average feeder; and that adage is simply this: "An animal well summered is half wintered, and a n animal well wintered is half sun* mered," which means that the year through you should keep your animals in nice smooth plump condition. Produce Succulent Food. ) Generally speaking It is mora economical to produce succulent food i n the form of roots for a small number of cows than to produce It In the form of silage, though small silos are now manufactured and need to soma at* | tent " • ' ' (By MARY DEAN.) Capes have become too common, excepting those made from the new material called teddy bear; this fabric is very popular. The teddy bear material is a sort of woolen velour, woven with long, hairy threads, exceedingly soft, and supple, and although light of weight it has c o n s i d e r a b l e warmth and is ideal for wear at shore resorts. A n o t h e r n e w material hot less favored for mountain or shore resort wear or for excursion trips is a rough woolen weave which is likely to be much in vogue during the coming winter. This goods is of a eilky texture and has a ground work of color subdued by the long dark hairs. The increasing f u 11 n ess of t h e skirt is exciting interest a m o n g students of the modes and there seems no shadow Cape of White o f doUDt that we Serge. a r e [n f0r an autumn and winter of shirrings and plaitings. Just how far the movement will go remains to be seen. The flowing movement of sheer supple stuffs over clinging foundations which characterize many of the midsummer models le a very different thing from fullness and drapery in heavier material. Sleeves are becoming longer, and a Paris correspondent writes that women are wearing high-necked bodices. One such frock described was of white taffeta and buttoned from neck to foot The waistband was twisted round the hips, from it a-deep embroidered tulle flounce fell nearly to the bottom of the skirt, hiding it entirely. A narrow %as band of taffeta encircled this flounce at the bottom, which was shaped in scallops. The bodice was made high at the neck and had long sleeves. As has been • said, capes are becoming too common, but occasionally one sees a model with perhaps some individual touch, or made of novel material which differentiates it from the general display. A m o n g thdse r e c e n t l y seen, for instance, was an unusually attractive wrap, t h e distinctive Crepe de Chine and note being the Taffeta, shaped collar at the back, which falls in graceful folds from a black velvet ribbon which encircles the neck and is held in place at the back of a pearl buckle. This cape was lined throughout with lobster red silk. There was a fold of the red silk on each side of the cape collar at the back, and down the front GAY STRIPE NOT FOR STREET fa a Little Too Much In the Livelier Effects-Good Taste Suggests Quieter Ones. Striped gaberdine is the material much in favor for costumes mada in the sleeveless bolero style. The skirt is rather full at the hipa, made with a seam down the front, on the diagonal. The small bolero hangs loosely over a draped band, showing the long sleeve in white muslin, wHh a band of embroidery and another of •arret giving a touch of novelty. A straight Jacket in the same striped material is worn with this skirt and bolero, making the coetume a little lesa sanaational for the streeta. But it taust be acknowledged that the striped materials are not tempting women of taste, unless these stripes be of the darkest description of green and blue. The hats now worn in vParis are small of large, with>a ruching of taffeta and a couple of wings. Handsome Afternoon Frock.

HAIR ORNAMENTS THE FAD May Be as Elaborate as One Wishes, Always Within the Bounds of Good Taste. Elaborate hair ornaments are worn by young girls this season. There are shell pins with hinged tops with gems that may be turned In different directions to suit the coiffure, and simulated caps of strings of pearls with tiny chin straps of pearls to match to wear in the evenings. Narrow bandeaux of rhinestones that widen out in a barrette In the back and which are matched by the high «panB In combs set with rhinestones are very pretty. There are also caps formed of strings of Jewels set wide apart with two straight feathers up the front, their quills outlined with- gems. Square-topped pins, inlaid with gold, matching gold-topped side combs and a high open-work back comb with a filigree design in the gold, are all shown, as are also hairpins with filigree gold tope, shaped like a ball, the Jgpenter filled with compressed sachet balls and thin bands of gold ending in gold taseels to wear across the front of the hair, the /tassels hanging back of the ears like simulated'earrings. Glass as a material for coiffure ornaments is steadily making its way into favor. Under a strong light spun glass aigrettes are moat effective, especially when of white combined with emerald green, sapphire, blue, ruby, red or golden yellow.

GOOD JOKE ON DOCTOR WILEY Darky Coachman Probably Did Not Mean to Be 8arcaetlc, but the Remark Seemed Personal. Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, our foremost pure food expert tells of a trip h e made to a place in Carolina to make a propagandist speech. It goes something like this: "I checked my bag at t h e station, and engaged an old darky hackman to drive me to the hall. He seemed very much worried over my lack of baggage. " 'Most every gent what cornea here's got something to sell,' he said. 'Maybe youse got something to sell, boss?' " 'Oh, yes,' I told him, T v e got something to sell.' For a moment he seemed satisfied. But his curiosity got the better o f him. and be broke out with another question: " 'What might dat something be you got to sell, boss?' he asked. "I thought it over for a while, and decided that I should have to give some k&d of an^&hjwer, so I said, *I sell wit and wisdom.' "The old negro scratched his head and cogitated.

In\vent of the war continuing any length of time, many drugs will be eliminated entirely from the market owing to the exhaustion of supplies from the. jobbers and drug depots, and their inability to replenish stocks as commerce has been discontinued with all countries at war. The operation of a small store is usually done at a minimum of expense, aud large stocks of drugs are not carried, making it necessary to go up and down with the market I endeavor to maintain a uniform price on all articles at all times regardless of the market, often times selling at a very small margin of profit. I assure my friends and patrons that C' sea on all advanced drugs will drop k as Boon as the European countries will permit it The following is a list of the more important drugs used in this vicinity ana the advance in retail price, also the advance from the former wholesale price.

Official news of the situation of the Japanese fleet and transports is lacking, bat because of the preparations which have been in progress since Japan sent her ultimatum to the Kaiser's government last Sunday, it is believed that everything was ready for the attack on Kiauchau when the time limit of the ultimatum expired Saturday night and that the attack already haB been begun. The Japanese expeditionary forces sent to Kiauchau are under the command of Vice-Admiral Kamimura. In official circles it is estimated that it will take three months to reduce Tsingchau, which is well garrisoned and provisioned for a siege. The area of hostilities extends over China eastward of the Yellow river. The Japanese will proceed to place all Germans under surveillance. Already they are ejecting Germans from Mukden, Chang-Chun and Dalny. Doubtless similar action will be taken at Tien-TBin. The proclamation of the emperor sent a thrill through the country. Japan's entrance on the fulfillment of her obligations to her ally, Great Britain, responds to the popular will from one end of the land to the other. Cheering crowds assembled before the buildings occupied by the department of foreign affairs and the administration of the navy. Sunday evening there were lantern processions through the streets. The popular manifestations, however, do not approach the enthusiasm which preceded the war with Russia. Count von Rex, the German ambassador, has been handed his passports. He probably will leave for America, either on the Minnesota, sailing August 27, or the Manchuria, which will depart August 29. George W. Guthrie, the American ambassador, will represent Germany. The diet has been convoked in special session for September 3. The Austrian crusier Kaiaerin Elizabeth, which latterly was at Tsinchau, the seaport to have sailed. She perhaps will go to a neutral port and disarm. It Is believed this action will keep Austria out of the war in the Orient, although unforeseen circumstances -may force Japan to change this police. -v No action has been taken relative to Austria, and the foreign office has explained that Japan will remain friendly unless Austria should adopt an attitude which it would regard as offensive. gle In History. ^ . . _ - ^ - - • • ' • Was started In B e t ,,. .„„,. -»™-.'tne flr8t great bat- 'ot the war That has plunged the great powers of Europe into conflict Along 100 miles of lighting line at least 2,000,000 men are linked in a death grapple. Since Saturday, the straggle h a s been waged—from Mons, on the southern edge of Belgium, to the Luxemburg frontier. The English expedirationary force has at last emerged into ^ the open and is fighting at the side of ,- the French. One million Germans, - j flower of the kaiser's army, are face V t e face with the allied troops and with .vCavalry charge and cannonade and *;iMBad-to-<land encounter of the infantry, the destines of Europe are trembling in the balance. <( v No details of how the Issue of the strife goes are permitted to emerge *from behind the curtain that envelopes the scene. It will be days and maybe weeks before a decisive result has been Attained and the world i s perjaitted to know.

The pilot is above and the gunner below, with his gun" so mounted that it can be pointed in any direction. Gettysburg or Waterloo by comparison. At Mons, at Glvet, along both banks of the river Meuse, down at Neuf Chateau, and along toward Arlon, the embattled powers are struggling with varying success. At Luttere, in Hainesult, the province where Mons is also located, a bloody battle is in progress. One would say it was the left wing of the allies' army that is here engaged, since Luttre is but 10 miles from Mons to the northeast, and but five miles distant from Charleroi. Again between Charleroi and Namur, another great struggle is going forward. All the while a tremendous bombardment of the Namur forts is under way, and roar of the siege guns shaking the earth beneath the feet of millions battling for supremacy. From Namur to Charleroi is another 15 milegr. Along this line, the contest rages to halt the German advance toward Dlnant, but six miles from the French frontier. With Brussels captured, the Germans are apparently making no move toward Antwerp. Instead, the forces which occupied Brussels are passing through, the city and moving on down toward the French border. Russia Claims Victorious Advance. S t Petersburg.—It is claimed that Russia is moving fasCttr Austria and ea&WBi Prussia. An army o f l n v a - sion, numbering hundreds of thousands and comprising the picked forces of the Russian military forces, is penetrating the frontiers at a number of points, the .exact location of which is withheld.. The war office declare that the enemy, i s being slowly but surely pressed back. The Austrian opposition is admittedly not s o serious as is the German.- The official description of the fighting is "desperate." Among the killed and wounded are reported some of the best known nobles of the empire. The crack regiments from S t Petersburg and Moscow, officered by members of the royal family and scions of nobles houses, have been in action in Prussia. These regiments are reported to have covered themselves with glory, riding throagh the Prussian forces, and carrying fortified positions, at a fearfull cost to themselves. Only members of the families know of their loss, however, aa the government refuses to post aay lists of dead at this time. The Russian advance Into Prussia is following the line of the railway from Eydtkuhnen toward Konigsburg. It is already in the outskirts of raster* hart.

The Russian aerial corps, heretofore considered a negligible quantity, has covered itself with glory. It is announced that military aviators, carrying staff officers, have flown far Into the interior of both Germany and Austria. High explosives have been dropped on military storehouses and the general topography of the country, and the secret fortifications, have been accurately mapped. The main invasion of Austria is through the Styr riverjvalley. Sweeping successes are reported in this section. The army has penetrated 35 miles inland, in the general direction of Lemburg, capital of Galicia. Practically continuous fighting has occurred, with the war office claiming a sweeping victory at Krasne, only 35 miles from Lemburg. In this fighting it Is declared that an Austrian division was completely routed,- and that 17 guns and more than 1,500 prisoners were taken. The Russians are reported as following up their advance and to be pushing on toward Lemburg. Story of German Occupation. Rotterdam—Details of the German occupation Thursday of Brussels were received Friday. Burgomaster Max met the detachment of German cavalry which entered the city via the Louvain gate. He carried a white flag. The commander expressed friendliness and promlfted if the inhabitants of Brussels made no attempt at resistance, that no harm should come to the city or its people. In the afternoon German officers occupying an automobile crossed Grand place (the market place), going to the city hall, while detachments of Germans went through various parts of the city. The telegraph office and railway station were closed for the greater part of the day. Many of the inhabitants of Brussels are leaving for Ghent and Ostend. The general opinion i s that the Germans wtll only pasa through the city, or, at the most, make a very short stay there. 80 far only a cavalry detachment Is there. The only signs of animation in the place are caused by the arrival of peasants, -who are abandoning the surrounding villages.

IN KITCHEN Proper Placlna of Electric F * n w , n Make Work Far Easier and Lesa Trying to Temper. For the woman who does her own cooking there is hardly any one thing that can give so much kitchen comfort as an electric fan. I have one placed on a shelf diagonally in line with the . top of the window. As everyone knows, heat, smoke and cooking odors rise to the ceiling, and, unless « l v e n an outlet, permeate all the rooms. Most apartment kitchens have one window, often on a court Unless there is a good breeze circulating out- Bide the hot air will not go out very quickly, even if the window is open at the top; at least, not quickly enough to prevent smoke and odors from escaping into the other rooms. An electric fan placed *s I have said will instantly drive the hot or smoky air out at the top of the window, and an incoming stream of cool air will be forced through the lower opening of the window. A 16-inch electric fan costs about fourteen dollars. If you already be*a an electric fan and don't know Just where to put it in order to make it do the greatest amount of good possible, try it in the kitchen, and cook in cool, smokeless, odorless comfort.— Kansas City Star. HOUSEHOLD HINTS. Powdered starch applied instantly to fruit stains will remove them. . To loosen rusty screws apply a redhot poker to the head of the screw. If brass is rubbed with sweet oil after being polished it will not tarnish so quickly. For cleaning tin there is nothing better than dry flour rubbed on with a newspaper. Soak new potatoes in water that has a little soda dissolved in it, and you will find that they scrape and clean beautifully. A well-beaten white of an egg„ whipped into mashed potatoes before serving them will add greatly to the looks and to the taste of the dish. To prevent wet shoes becoming hard, clean them and rub vaseline over them before putting them away. This will keep them flexible and prevent the leather from cracking. Steamed Chocolate Pudding. Butter, three tablespoonfuls; sugar, two-thirds cupful; one egg; milk, one cupful; pastry flour, two and onefourth cupfuls; baking powder, four teaspoonfuls; unsweetened chocolate, two and one-half squares; salt, onefourth teaspoonful; vanilla, one teaspoonful. Cream the butter, add sugar gradually and egg well beaten. Mix and sift flour with baking powder and Bait and add alternately with the milk t o the first mixture, then add chocolate, melted. Turn into a buttered mold or individual cups; cover and steam two hours. fir >> ^ General Markets. Plums—$1.5002 per bu. Pears—¢1.2501.50 per bu. Huckleberries—-$3.5004 per bu.

ETC. More than one faded, fragrant romance is revealed In the chapters of this homely little story. Through it runs like a golden thread, the tender devotion of the aged husband and wife. CHAPTER I. The Tea Table. Angeline'e slender, wiry form and small, glossy gray head bent over the squat brown teapot as she shook out the last bit of leaf from the canister. The canister waB no longer hers, neither the teapot, nor even the battered old pewter spoon with whichv-she tapped the bottom of the tin to dislodge the last flicker of tea-leaf dust. The three had been sold at auction that day in response to the auctioneer's inquiry, "What am I bid for the lot?" Nothing in the familiar old kitchen •was hers, Angeline reflected, except Abraham, her aged husband, who was taking his last gentle ride in the old racking chair—the old armchair with painted roses blooming as brilliantly across its back as they had bloomed when the chair was first purchased forty years ago. Those roses had come to be a source of perpetual wonder to the old wife, an ever-present example. Neither time nor stress could wilt them a single leaf. When Abe took the first mortgage on the house in order to invest In an indefinitely located Mexican gold mine, the melodeon dropped one of its keys, but the roses nodded on with the same old sunny .hope; when Abe had to take the second mortgage and Tenafly Gold became a forbidden topic of conversation, the minute hand fell off the par- Jor clock, but the flowers on the back of the old chair blossomed on none the less serenely. The soil grew more and more bar- Ten as the years went by; but still the roses had kept fresh and young, so why, argued Angy, should not she? If old age and the pinch of poverty had •failed to conquer their valiant spirit, why should she listen to the croaktins tale? If they bloomed on with the same orimson flaunt of color, though (the rockers beneath them had grown warped and the body of the chair creaked and groaned every time one ventured to sit in it, why should ehe not ignore the stiffness which the years seemed to bring to her Joints, the complaints which her body threatened every now and again to utter, and fare on herself, a hardy perennial bravely facing life's winter-time? Even this dreaded day had not tak- ^ en one fraction of a shade from the glory of the roses, as Angeline could aee in the bud at one side of Abraham's head and the full-blown flower below hie right ear; so why should she droop because the sale of her household goods had been somewhat disappointing? Somewhat? When the childless old couple, still sailing under the banner of a charity-forbidding pride, became practically reduced to their last copper, just as Abe's Joints were "loosenin' up" after a five years' siege of rheumatism, and decided to sell all their worldly possessions, apart from their patched and threadbare wardrobes and a few meager keepsakes, they had depended upon raising at least two hundred dol- - lars, one-half of which was to secure Abe a berth "in the Old Men's home at Indian Village, and the other half to make Angeline comfortable for life, if s little lonely, in the Ola Ladies' home la- their own native hamlet of ShoreviUe, Both institution* had been generously endowed by the same estate, and were separated by a distance of but Ave miles/ "Might as waal be five hunderd, with my rheumatic1 an' yer weak heart," Abraham had growled when Angy first proposed the plan as the only digni- J e d solution to their problem of living ;^> *BnV! the little wife had rejoined, -¾ *ltll be a mite o' comfort a-knowin' a ;;^*v$vvpsy* so near, even of yer can't silt :-^&i^m^m - -. * • ^ - ¾ ¾ ^ be found v > ^ ; ; ^ r ^ j g tfc6 problem; for the auction, was MB/, and instead of two hundred dolm r O e y had succeeded, in raising but one Jtohftred dollars And two cents. :-.

An' mebbe he would have tew, Angy," a" bit ruefully, "ef yew 'd 'a' let me advertise a little sooner. I don't s'pose half Shoreville knows yit that we was gwine ter have a auction sale." He watched the color rising in her cheeks with a curious mixture of pride In her pride and regret at Us consequences. "It's no use a-talkin', mother, pride and poverty makes oneasy bedfellers." He leaned back In the old chair, creaking out a dismal echo to the auctioneer's "Going, going, gone!" while the flush deepened In Angy's cheek. Again she fastened her gaze upon the Indomitable red rose which hung a pendant earring on the right side of Abraham's head. "Yew wouldn't 'a' had folks a-comin' here ter bid jest out o* charity, would yew?" she demanded. "An' anyhow,' in a more gentle tone—the gently positive tone which she had acquired through forty years of living with Abraham—"we hain't so bad off with one hundred dollars an' tew cents, an' —beholden ter nobody! It's tew cents more'n yew need ter git yew inter the Old Men's, an' them extry tew cents '11 pervide for me jest bewtiful." Abraham stopped rocking to stare hard at his resourceful wife, an involuntary twinkle of amusement in his blue eyes. With increased firmness, she repeated, "Jest bewtiful!" whereupon Abe, scenting self-sacrifice on his wife's part, sat up straight and snapped, "Haow so, haow so. mother?" "It'll buy a postage stamp, won't it?'1—she was fairly aggressive now— "an' thar'e a envelop what wa'n't put up ter auction in the cupboard an' a paper bag I kin iron out—ketch me a-gwine ter the neighbors an' a-beggin' fer writing paper—an' I'll jest set daown an* write a line to MIBB' Halsey. Her house hain't a stun's throw from the Old Men's; an' I'll offer ter come an' take keer o' them air young 'uns o' her'n fer my board an' keep an'—ten cents a week. 1 was a-gwine ter say a quarter, but I don't want ter impose on nobody. Seeln' that they hain't over well-ter-do, I would go fer nothin', but I got ter have somethin' ter keep up appearances on, so yew won't have no call ter feel ashamed of me when I come a-vteitin' ter the hum." Involuntarily, as she spoke, Angy lifted her knotted old hand and smoothed back the hair from her brow; for through all the struggling years she had kept a certain, not onpleasing, girlish pride in her personal appearance. Abraham had risen with creaks of his rheumatic Joints, and was now walking up and down the room, his feet lifted slowly and painfully with every step, yet still Ms blue eyes flashing with the Are of indignant protest "Me a-bunkin' comfortable in the Old Men's, an' yew a-takin' keer o' them Halsey young 'uns fer ten cents a weekf I wouldn't take keer o' 'em fer ten cents a short breath. Thar be young 'una an' young 'una," he elucidated, "but they be tartars! "Yew'd be in yer grave afore the fast frost; an' who's gwine ter bury yer—the taown?" His tone became gentle and broken: "No, no, Angy. Yew be a good gal. an' dew just as we calclated on. Yew jine the Old Ladles'; yew've got friends over thar, yew'll git erlong splendid. An' 111 git erlong tew. Yer know"—throwing his shoulders back, he assumed the light, bantering tone so familiar to his wife—"the poor* house doors is always open. I'd Jest admire ter go thar. Thar's a rocking chair in every room, and they say the grub is A No. 1." He winked at her, smiling his broadest smile in his attempt to deceive. . Both wink and smile, however, were lost upon Angy, who was busy dividing the apple sauce In such a way that Abe would hftve^the larger share without suspecting it, hoping the while that he would not notice the absence of butter at this last home meal She herself had never believed in buttering bread when there was "teas" to eat with it; but Abe's extravagant tastes bad always carried him to the point of desiring both butter end sauce as a relish to his loot "Naow, fur's I'm concerned," pursued Abe, 1 hain't got nothin' agin the poorhoose fer neither men nor woman. I'd as lief let yew go than 'stid o' me; ter I know very well that's what yew*re e-layin' oat fer ter do. Yet, yes, mother, yew can't fool me. Bat think what folks would say!

Above all,- she cared now for what they had said and what they still might say about her husband and this final ending to his downhill road. She rested her two hands on the table and looked hard at the apple sauce until it danced before her eyes. She could not think with any degree of clearness. Vaguely she wondered if their supper would dance out of sight before they could sit down to eat It So many of the good things of life had "vanished ere she and Abe could touch their lips to them.* Then she felt his shaking hand upon her shoulder and heard him mutter with husky tenderness: "My dear, this is the fust chance since we've been married that I've had to 'take the wust of it. Don't say a word agin It naow, mother, don't yer. I've brought yer ter this pass. Lemme bear the brunt o* it." Ah, the greatest good of all had not vanished, and that was the love they bore one to the other. The sunshine came flooding back into mother's heart. She lifted her face, beautiful, rosy, eternally young. This was the man for whom she had gladly risked She Wondered if Their Supper Would Dance Out of Sight. want and poverty, the displeasure of her own people, almost half a century ago. Now at last she could point him out to all her little world and say, "See, he gives me t h e red side of the apple!" She lifted her eyes, two bright sapphires swimming with the diamond dew of unshed, happy tears. I ' m a-thinkin', father," she twittered, "that naow me an' yew be a-gwine so fur apart, we be a-gittin' closer tergether in eperet than we've ever been afore." Abe bent down stiffly to brush her cheek with his rough beard, and then, awkward, as when a boy of sixteen he had first kissed her, shy, ashamed at this approach to a return of the oldtime love making, he seated himself at the small, bare table. This warped, hill-and-dale table of the drop-leaves, which had been brought from the attic only todav after resting there for ten years: had served « s their first dlning-^ftbl* when the 'honeymoon was youna> Abe thoughtfully drummed hi* hand on the board, and as Angy brought the teapot and sat down opposite him, he recalled: "We had bread an' tea. an' apple sass the day we set ijp housekeepin', dew yew remember, Angy?** "An' I bumed the apple Bass," she supplemented, whereupon Abe chuckled, and Angy went on with a thrill of genuine gladness oyer the fact thai he remembered the details of that long-ago honeymoon as well as she: "Yew don't mind havin' no butter tonight, dew yer, father?" He recalled how he had said to her at that first simple home meal: "Yew don't mind beln' poor with me, dew yer, Angy?" Now, with a silent shake of his head, he stared at her, wondering how it would seem to eat at table when her face no longer looked at him across the board, to sleep at night when her faithful hand no longer lay within reach of his own. She lifted her teacup, he lifted his, the two gasing at each other over the brims, both half-distressed, half-comforted by the fact that love still remained their toaetmaster after the passing of all the years. Of a sudden* Angy exclaimed, "We fergot ter say grace." Shocked and contrite, they covered their eyes with their trembling old hands and murmured together: "Dear Lord, we thank thee this day for oui daily bread." Angy opened her eyes to find the red roses cheerfully facing her from the back of the rocking chair. A robin had hopped upon the window sill jUBt outside the patched and ruety screen and Was joyfully caroling to her his views of life. Through the window vines in which the bird was almost meshed the sunlight sifted softly into the stripped, bare and lonely room Angy felt strangely encouraged and comforted. The roses became symbolical to her of the "lilies of the field which toil not, neither do they spin;" the robin was one of the "two sparrows sold for a farthing, and one of them shall not fall to the ground without your Father;" while the sunlight seemed to call out to the little old lady who hoped and believed and loved much: "Fear ye not therefore Ye are of more value than man; sparrows!" CHAPTER II. MQood-by.H When the last look of parting had been given to the old kitchen and the couple passed out of doors, hushed and trembling, they presented an incongruously brave, gala-day appearance. Both were dressed in their best To be sure, Abraham's, Sunday suit had long since become his only, everyday suit as well, but he wore his Sabbath- day hat, a beaver of ancient design, with an air that cast its reflection over all his apparel. Angeline had on a blank, silk gown as shiny as the freshly polished g o v s she was leaving In her kitchen—a gown which testified from its voluminous hem to the soft yellow net at the throat that Angeline was as neat a mender and darner as could be found in Suffolk county. . \ A black silk bonnet snuggled close to her head, from under Its brim peeping a single pink rose, Every spring for ten years Angeline had renewed toe youth of this rose-by treating7 its petals with the tender red dye of & budding oak, C*0 BE CONTINUED.) RANK CASEY WITH HORATIUS Comment of Those Whose Opinion It Worth Heeding Concerning the Two Famous Ballads. "Casey at the Bat in his own humbler sphere deserves to be mentioned as a distant relative of Horatius at the Bridge," said the late Harry Thurston Peek, as quoted by the Little Classics Press, which republishes the baseball ballad. Literary people are reluctant to see merit in contemporary ballads of "low life," so-called. Casey is really better stuff than its prototype Horatius, Horatlus did impossible things. ^ He licked a whole -army single-handed, then jumped into the river and swam across in a 2<KKpottndeuH of lead pipe, cast iron and chain maiL .

N Before the relapse the pope addressed the whole world on the subject of the war. When he was told "that the roar of cannon in the Adriatic could be heard in Venice he exclaimed: "The bones of the doges must thrilli in their sepulchers at the familiar sound of battle, recalling the heroic days of-old!" Hat Reigned Eleven Years. The pontiff, for whom the world is. mourning, passed away in his seventyninth year, in the eleventh year of his reign. Although his rule was brief, his lovable personality made him one of th« most illustrious occupants of the throne of St. Peter, and even the followers of the Socialist Mayor Nathan of Rome, by their presence before the Vatican, showed their desire to pay homage to the Catholic pontiff Plus X. Wat Born June 2, 1835. Pope Pius X. was a native of the kittle village of Rtese, in the Venitian province of Trevisco, which in 1303, gave to the church a pontiff in Nlccola Boccasini, who assumed the triple crown under the name of Bene* diet. XI. Born June 2, 1835, to a poor and humble family of the name of Sarto, Pins X. was christened Giuseppe (Joseph) and known throughout life by the dialect equivalent of Giuseppe,' "Beppo." The early life of Pope Pius was filled with activity. The district of Treviso is one of poverty, only those who have seen it realizing the struggle for existence that ever prevails. From an early age Giuseppe, bred tc sturdy outdoor life, displayed a bent for the priesthood. The educational resources of his birthplace were soon exhausted, and the lad's studious learnings demanded a wider field tor their development He was sent to a college,.at Caatel, France, and from there was transferred to the Central 8emtnary at Padua, the world-renowned seat of Italian learning. On September 18» 1851, the young seminarist received his priest's orders In the Cathedral of Castel-Frince, That year was a memorable one for Italy. The question of; Italian liberatton had bees forced to the front by the attempt of Orsini to assassinate' NapoleotrQL, . r .. ?The diplomats of nations assembled, but the youngest priest was fiot oon- - Ceraed In' the movement He turned his back on the world and took up his dvtlea a# curate in the village of Tombelo. He soon was loved by bis pariahoners, to whom he endeared himself by his tntselnahnesa, his setf-tac- ^ 1 ¾ . ^ ¾ ¾ . '.He tw* promoted as perish priest ot ^ r m - ^ m ^ s^lssflW^lOT, oaly » y*ar a f t « the ^ > i ^ e*eek»of Voaaaia -4Vs*ic*>jo Msl*, the Cathedral of Treviso. This promotion was supplemented by bestowal of the deanery on Father Sarto and his appointment as Episcopal chancellor. To him also waB confided tho delicate and important charge of spJ-C/.ual director of the Seminary of Treviso, in which college he was likewise 'given a professor's chair and an examlnership. Nor did his activities end here, for he was chosen as a Judge in the Capitular Ecclesiastical court, and finally was appointed vicar-general of the docese. After Buch an apprenticeship it was not surprising that when the important see of Mantuc became vacant, in 1884, Leo XIII chose Giuseppe Sarto to fill the place. It was no easy task to which he had been called, for his predecessor had allowed discipline to slack. His persuasive powers and administrative gifts were tested to the utmost, but he was fully equal to the ungrateful task. Two yoars later Pope Leo recognized Bishop Sarto's merits by raising him to the Sacred College, with the title of San Bernardo alle Temme, at a consistory held June 16, 1893. At the same time he was chosen out of all the Venetian prelates to fill the-patriarchate of Venice. Won Support of the Radicals. In his nine years' residence in the "seagirt" city the pope of the gondoliers was beloved and a familiar figure. to be the beau o r the Catholic church and the successor of St. Peter HP loved the simple life among hi* friends. There wats a great difference* of opinion as to the qualifications of Pope Pius X. for his office. HiB election, a compromise, was particularly pleating to Austria, Germany and France, and in these countries, with the exception of France in recent years, he was highly commended for wisdom and strength. Brought Church and State Together. As to Italy, he increased the cordiat understanding between church and state, which was not thought wise by Italian churchmen. However, his action resulted in an uplifting of the church in *taly. Before Pope Pius had been on the throne three years he evidenced that young men who dreamed of the career of a courtier in Rome were going to be disappointed. The pope wanted bishops for the different eees, and the way for young diplomats to promotion, it was soon apparent, was through the tiresome but wholesome office of governing bishop. Opposed to Woman's Suffrage. Compared with the policies of hie predecessors of recent times, the leaning of Pope Pius X. have been held to be ultra-orthodox in purely ecclesiastical principles and ultra-conservative in temporal relations. An instance of his well-known uncompromising attitude against advanced tendencies was afforded in his opposition to woman suffrage as voiced by the pope upon the occasion of his reception of a delegation of Italian Catholic ladieB. "Woman can never be man's equal," be told his fair visitors, "and cannot, therefore, enjoy equal .rights. Few women would ever desire to legislate, and those who did would be classed as eccentrics. Scripture, and especially the three Epistles of St. Paul, emphasize woman's dependence on man."

When balloting began to choose a successor to Pope Leo XHi., the name of Giuseppe Sarto was hardly considered at first At balloting continued, however, the roll of votes in his fa-c vor increased.

Some of the -pimples would get big and red and if I touched them they would pain, while others would get white heads on them and when they broke open some matter came out. They would burn and itch and I scratched them so that sometimes they would break and bleed. That always caused them to be worse.

As a student at*Harvard, Ralph Waldo Emerson did not give much promise of his future greatness. His dissertation was spoken of as "a very good one, but too long to give much pleasure to the hearers." He was class poet, but only after seven others had been successively elected, and had successively declined the honor. A story told by Mr. Arthur Stanwood Pier, in "The Story of Harvard," goes to show that Emerson's musical • efforts were even less appreciated.

P h o n e 5 5 r 3 W A R N E W S y ^ Owing to the recent wars in Europe, it becomes necessary to advance the price on many drugs as the majority of crude drugs and chemicals are obtained from abroad. It is not my intention to advance the price only when necessary and then only sufficient to cover the wholesale advance. In event of the war continuing any length of time, many drugs will be eliminated entirely from the market owing to the exhaustion of supplies from the jobbers and drug depots, and their inability to replenish stocks aa commerce has been discontinued with all countries at war. The operation of a small store it usually done at a minimum of expense, and large stocks of drugs are not carried, making it necessary to go up and down with the market. I endeavor'to maintain a uniform price on all articles at all times regardless of the market, often times selling at a very small margin of profit. I assure my friends and patrons that prices on all advanced drugs will drop back as soon as the European countries will permit it. The following is a list of the more important drugs used in this vicinity ana the advance in retail price, also the advance from the former wholesale price.

It la understood that the fighting In progress at that time was along the Somme river, near Amiens. If this be true, it means that the vanguard of the German advance was within 70 miles of the French capital. Newspaper dispatches received Sunday help to confirm the fears of the Paris officials that a siege of Paris is Imminent The Times correspondent. In a dispatch said, "The first great German effort has succeeded," and that "England must face the fact that ber expeditionary force requires immediate and Immense reinforce* ments." He adds that the "investment of Paris cannot be banished from the field of possibilities/' It was admitted in Paris, according to reports received here, that the French officials are gravely considering sending all women and children from the capital. These reports are considered here to give strong color to the belief that the Paris officials expect a Blege. The prder of Saturday for homes within action of the city's forts to be evacuated and destroyed by September 3, shows, It is pointed out, how soon a siege is expected by the authorities, in the allies' defense to the north continues to give way. W. T. Massey, special correspondent of the Telegraph, wires that when the next great battle is fought the Germans will have one of the hardest tasks of the campaign. Assuming that the Germans continue to prosecute the offensive in the same region as battles of the past weak, there is good reason for stating that the line now held by allies is Infinitely stronger than any along which they have faced the foe so far; not only are the positions more favorable, but numbers will be less to their disadvantage. Whatever happens, tills fact can be stated with a certainty—the allies are awaiting attack with confidence, said the dispatches. The German hosts had a taste of their quality and unless the enemy alter their form of attack their losses will be enormous and the morale of the force will be .further shaken, the correspondent wires. Reports from various sources indicated that the fighting all along the lines of the allies and Germans was continued, with more intensity. The battle line of the allies now runs through Labercles, Leeateau and Cambrai. The Germans report that their forces have reached St Quentin are advancing from there toward of Latere.

The French, Paris dispatches say, nave received reinforcements on this northern line and are holding both flanks and have begun, with the English co-operating in the center, an offensive movement in an effort to drive the Germans back to the positions occupied before the disastrous engageamenta of the past week. The reports ^indicate that the allies are now in a position in which they are confident of success. According to a dispatch from Paris, a German aviator paased over that city in an aeroplane and dropped boom* which did only trifling damage. One contained a warning to the Parisians that the Germans were on the outskirts of the city and that the best thing to do wn* to surrender. Lord Kitchener, British secretary of war, Issued a long statement, covering ^he situation up to Sunday morning, in which he saya the English forces have -retired to their second v Ones of defease and that the French, ©n their right ant left have suoceed- • 4 in a^pin* tk^ Oerman a^vmnse* The statement says the Germans have not attacked the English, army since Thursday, when the four-day battle in the department of Nord ended. As to the situation in the VoBges region, the French official report says that along the line from the Somme river to the Vosges mountain range the defense is holding well. The report continues: "The fighting here has been notable for the great number of casualties. Two German regiments of 8,000 each were so depleted after three days that they were combined in a single organization of less than the German regimental strength." Germans Lose Four 8hips. London—At last the fleet has been heard from. Two German cruisers sunk and another fading into the mist wrapped In flames and in a sinking condition; two German destroyers sunk and others damaged, but to what extent is not known; but every vessel of the squadron afloat returning in good order is the message. Only the strategist expected the British squadron on guard to take the offensive; the amateurs long ago decided that the squadron would simply wait, content to keep the Germans bottled and prepared to attack them when they attempted a sortie; but apparently, the British got word that the time was favorable and delivered a blow, with the light cruisers and battle cruisers suppporting the destroyers, which were attended by submarines, and every one that went into this engagement came out under its own steam? Resr Admiral Beatty In Command. Rear Admiral Beatty, who conducted this brilliant and timely operation, is regarded as one of the ablest officers In the British navy and is one of its youngest admirals, having reached that rank a year ago. He was a great personal favorite of the late King Edward and a popular member of the Anglo-American society, having married a daughter of the late Marshall Field, of Chicago. Rear Admirals Moore and Christian, who are his immediate subordinates, both were recently promoted, and Commodore Goodenough has already had a distinguished career. Official Account of Fight Following is the text issued Friday night by the official press bureau: "Early this morning a concerted operation of some consequence WSB attempted against the Germans In Heligoland Bight. "A strong force of destroyers, supported by light cruisers and battle cruisers, and working in conjunction with the submarines, intercepted and attacked the German destroyers and cruisers guarding the approaches to the German coast. Two German destroyers werjs sunk and many damaged. Defenses of Paris Good. Washington—The fortifications of Paris and their ability to resist a siege are receiving the close attention of military observers, now that Paris is the announced objective point of the German forces and the French ministry of war has adopted urgent means of strengthening the city's defenses to the utmost. While the city's detailed defenses are surrounded with strict secrecy by French military authorities," yet their general character and formidable strength are well known to military experts, who recognize them as among the strongest fortifications in the world. These fortifications consist of three distinct circles sweeping around the city: First the solid wall of masonry IS feet high extend: ing for 22 miles around the old sections of Paris; second, the system of 17 detached forts arranged at intervals, two miles beyond the wail, and making a circuit of the city 24 milea ^...- . . ,. . long; and third, an outer girdle of Bwlogxw denies 5 1 ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ 1 ^ ^ 8 o n ^ hi*ht* *-i *. * — commanding^ thV valley' of Qflr Seine. Fortified Area 400 Miles. Each of these circles of masonry and steel is a complete defense in itself, the forts being linked together with redoubts, bastion and glacis which permit a cross-ire against approach from any direction. The magnitude of the system is shown by its area, which exceeds 400 square miles. Gejsjnany Attacks Belgian Congo. Pari*—A dispatch to the Havaa agency from Libreville, in the French Congo, says that the Belgian Congo has been attacked by German troops. The Belgian administration, In accord with Great Britain, has taken defensive measures and has informed the French government of Ha action. The Belgian Congo Jiea in the center of Africa, It ia separated from Kaaerun, the German.colony of western equatorial Africa, by the French Congo. The colony possesses a force of native treope, amounting to 18,000 men. The officers, 182, and the 888 nonconv misaioaer officers are «uropeana, for the most pert Belgtaaa.

Washington—The French embassy here received Sunday the following cable from its foreign office in Paris: "The Russian army has taken Allensteln and invested Koenigsberg. A general battle is being waged in Gallcia along an immense front between the Vistula river and Lemberg." <+w St. Petersburg—The general staff of the Czar's army continues to issue statements claiming succeBBes in Austria and Prussia. The occupation of Tilsit was confirmed in official announcement, which also stated that Russian forces had defeted the Austrians at Tomastow, in Russian Poland. ,._ , The authorities announce the capture of an immense amount of the spoils of war from the Germans at Tilsit The garrison and the Inhabitants fled before the approach of the Russians. Regular postal communication has been established between towns in East Prussia occupied by the Russians, including Insterburg, Postal packets are reaching these cities bearing Russian stamps. The Russian army which is moving southwest in Gallcla, says the general staff, has beaten the Austrians at Monastersysko and crossed xthe Dniester without difficulty. Lemberg is the most important military station of the Austrians in Gallcla and controls the railroad lines in the eastern part of the province, five lines running in different directions from there. The surrounding district is rugged and will undoubtedly prove difficult hut the Russians will not suffer the trouble there that they have met in eastern Prussia, where they are advancing against the Germans along a line 150 miles long.

Kaiser Pleads for Prussians* London—A Berlin dispatch sent by the Wolff bureau, and reaching here by way of Rotterdam, says that Emperor William has directed the following telegram to his ministry: "Main Headquarters, Aug. 27.—The trials to which my royal province of East Prussia is subjected by the invasion of Russians fills me with the greatest compassion, but I know the courage of my East Prussians t c ^ e l l not to know that they are even ready to offer themselves on the altarf of the fatherland and will readily give their blood and wealth for the sake of their country and manfully bear the hardships of war. "Confidence in the iresistible might of our heroic army and unshakable belief in the help of a living God, together with the consciousness that we are fighting for a worthy cause, should give us faith in an early delivery of Germany from its enemies. "I wish that everything possible shall be done by the German people for those East Prussians who are obliged to leave their homes.

The Belgian ambassador was handed his passports at the foreign office, all diplomatic relations were broken off and the way cleared for Austrian troops to join the Germans in the operations on Belgian soil. If necessary. Until this action Belgium was the only one of the allied powers at war only with Germany. France, England and Russia had heretofore made declarations against both Austria and Germany. The Austrian declaration of war was accompanied by the explanation that Austria was going to war because the Belgians were giving assistance to England and France. The American minister in Belgium will look after the interests of Austria, Italy Concentrating Forces. Rome—Large forces of Italian troops are being concentrated along the Adige river, north of Verona, less than 100 miles from Trient the Tyrolean town of Austria, where Austro- Hungarian forces are reported to be massing. Though government officials declare that nothing can alter Italy's determination to remain neutral, the situation is very grave. It is admitted that Austria's action in massing troops at Trient is uncalled for in view of the fact that both Switzerland and Italy have.declared their neutrality* but the Italians profess to believe that Austria will not bring another foe upon herself; Pjeturctqae Town i t Destroyed. ..

Under the pink rose a soft pink flush bloomed on either of the old lady's cheeks. Her eyes flashed with unconquerable pride, and her square, linn chin she held very high; tor now, indeed, she was filled with tenor of what "folks would aav" to thto ftwe»eftsJa** noc*% while* nelrftee* **» J * r 1» »W 4«y for a sunsnnde. Angy tucked the green-black affair whioh served them as both under her arm and swung Abe's figured old carpetbag in her hand with the manner ot one setting out on a pleasant journey. Abe, though resting heavily on his stout, crooked cane, dragged behind him Angy's little horsehair trunk upon a creaking, old, unusually large toy express wagon which he had bought at some forgotten auction long ago. The husband and wife passed into the garden between borders of boxwood, beyond which nodded the heads of Angy's carefully tended, outdoor "children"—her roses, her snowballs, her sweet-smelling syyingas, her waxlike bleeding-hearts and her shrub of bridal-wreath. "Jest a minute," she murmured* as Abe would have hastened on to the gate. She bent her proud head and kissed with furtive, half-ashamed passion a fluffy white spray of the bridalwreath. Now overtopping the husband's silk hat, the shrub had not oome so high as his knee when they two had planted it nearly a half-century ago. "You're mine!" Angy's heart cried out to the shrub and to every growing thing in the garden. "You're mine. I planted you, tended you, loved you into growing. You're all the children I ever had, and I'm leaving you." But : . " < Terror of What Folks Would lay to This Monie-Ceavlna* th« old wife did not pluck a single flower, for she could never bear to see a blosftdm wither in her hand, while all she said aloud was: I'm glad twas Mis' Holmes that bought fit the house.

With shaking fingers, Angy sought a pin hidden beneath her basque. "Father, shall I pin yer 'old-man' In ycr buttonhole V* she quavered. Then as he stooped for her to arrange tha posy, she whispered; "I wouldn't care, 'cept for what folks must any. La's hurry before any one aaas us. I toM everybody that we wa'nt a-gwine tar4 still break up Ulf teraorrer mornln'." Fortunately, there waa a way across lots to tha Old Lamas' home, an unfrequented by-path over a field and through a bit of woodland, which would bring the couple almost tmobto a side gate. wirmnnitancas Ange* v husband's arm, and looking up Into hia face pleaded earnestly: "Father, lef* take the bunderd dollara far a fambly tombstun an' go tar the poorhouse tergetheri" He shook her off almost roughly and lifted the latch of the gate. "Folks 'd say we was crasy, mother." There waa no one in sight as he draggad in the express cart and laid down tha handle. Before him was a long, clean-swept path ending apparently in a mass of shrubbery; to the left was a field of sweet corn reaching to tha hedge; to the right a strong and sturdy growth of pole lima beans; and just within the entrance, beneath the sweeping plumes of a weeping willow tree, was a shabby but Inviting green bench. Abe's glance wandered from the bench to his wife's face. Angy could not lift her eyes to him; with bowed head she was latching and unlatching the gate through which he must pass. He looked at the eun and thoughtfully made reckon of the time. There were two hours before he could take tha train which— "LeT* go set deown a spell afore—" ha faltered—"afore we say good-by." She made no answer. She told herself over and over that she must— simply mustr-etop that "aU-pt^-tremble" feeling which was going on inside of her. She stepped from the gate to the beaoh blindly, with Abe's hand on jhar eray thoagsy ettt k a M ^ w l t h iaa>ag of tha trass kaatfie ho*. ' He laid dawn his eaaa, 400¾ oft hia high hat and wiped his brow. He looked at her anxiously. Still she could not lift her blurred eyes, nor oould she check her trembling. Seeing how she shook, he passed his arm around her shoulder. He murmured something'—what, neither be nor she knew—but the love of his youth spoke In the murmur, and again fell the silence. Angy's eyee cleared. She struggled to speak, aghaat at the thought that life itself might be done before ever they could have one hour together again; but no words came. So much— so much to say! She reached out her hand to where his rested upon bis knee. Their fingers gripped, and each felt a sense- of dreary cheer to know that the touch was speaking what the tongue could not utter. Time passed swiftly. The silent hour sped on. The young blades of corn gossiped gently along the field. Above, the. branches of the willow swished and swayed to the rhythm of the soft south wind. "How still, how still It Is!" whispered the breeae. "Rest, rest, rest!" was the lullaby swish of the willow. The old wife nestled closer to Abraham until her bead touched bis shoulder. He laid hie cheek against her hair and the, carefully preserved old bonnet' Involuntarily she raised her hand, trained by the years of pinching econom/, to lift the fragile rose into a safer position. Ha smiled at her action; then his arm closed about her spasmodically and he swallowed a lump in his throat The afternoon was waning. Gradually over the turmoil of their hearts stole the garden's June-time spirit of, drowsy repose. They leaned even closer to each other. The gray ot the old man's hair mingled with the gray beneath Angelina's little bonnet Slowly his eyes closed. Then even as Angy wondered who would watch over the slumbers of his worn old age in the poorhouse, she, too, fell asleep. ft and newfr p^aleajad shea* at her fragile, worn at* -aUft aad white petticoat to brambles. Moreover, the dragging of the loaded little wagon was more difficult here for Abraham. But they both preferred the narrower, rougher way to facing the curious eyes of all ShorevlUe now, the pitying windows of the village street As the couple came to the edge of the woodland, they turned with one accord and looked back for the last glimpse of the home. Biasing goldred" against the kitchen window flamed the afternoon sunlight. "Look a' that!" Angy cried eagerly, as one who beholds a promise in the skies. "Jest see, father, we couldn't 'a' made out that winder this fur at all ef the sun hadn't struck It Jest so. I declar' it seems almost as ef we could see the rocker, tew. It's tew bad, Abe, that we had ter let yer old rocker go. iy yew remember—f" she laid her hand on his arm, and lifted her gase, growing clouded and wistful, to his face. "When we bought the chair, we thought mebbe some day I'd be rocking a leetle baby in It Twas then, yew rlcolleo', we sorter got in the habit of callln' each other father* an' toother.' I wonder ef the young 'una had come—" "La's hurry/' interrupted Abe, almost gruffly. "Le's hurry." They stumbled forward with bowed heads In silence, until of a sudden they were startled by a surprised hall of recognition, and looked up to find themselves confronted by a hent and gray old man, a village character, a harmless, slightly demented public charge known as "IshmasT or "Captain Rover." "Whar yew goin', Cap'n Roeef The old couple had drawn back at the sight ot the gentle vagabond, and Angy clutched at her husband's arm, her heart contracting at tha thought that he, too, had become a pauper. "I'm a-takin' my wife ter line tha old ladles over ther ter tha hum," Aha answered, and would have paased on, shrinking from the sight of himself as reflected^ in poor Ishmaet But tha "innocent" placed himself to their path. 'Tew ain't a-goin' ter Jlne 'am tewT he bantered. Aba forced a laugh to bis lips In response. "No, no; I'm goto' oyer ter Yaphank ter board on the county." Again tha couple would have passed on, their faces flushed, their eyes tow* ered, had not Ishmael flung out one hand to detain them while ha plunged tha other hurriedly Into hia pocket "Here."

Sighing heavily, the matron put the meat In the icebox, and then made her slow, lumbering way into the front hall, or community room, where the sisters were gathered in a body to await the new arrival.

HAVE LIVED WITHOUT BRAINS Casss on Record Seem to Sustain Contention That They Are Not Indlspenesble. French surgeons are striving to prove that the brain is not indispensable, and serves only to fill up the skull. Three recent cases tending to show this are reported by Dr. Btienne Destot, surgeon to the tribunal of the Seine, as having come under his personal observation. A twelve-year-old boy in care ot Dr. Daniel Molliere of Lyons was stated to hare lost a bowl of brains from falling over a stair rail and fracturing His skull on a gaa lamp, yet after ten daya of unconsciousness, he completely recovered his senses and all faculties. Doctor Destot has himself dressed for several months tha wound of a mason who had tha frontal bone and left frontal lobe of the brain torn away while mounting a large cornice atone. The patient waa unconsctoas $» 15 days, but regained bis -senses, and showed no impairment of faculties. The third case Is that of an Arab In care of Doctor Bruch of Algiers. Tha patient had coma to tha hospital with a wound on the left syelld and a depression of tha skull due to a severe hammer blow, but for two months ha showed no sign of brain trouble, whan he became suddenly unconscious and died.

If fountain pens have not attained perfection in the present day It is not because their youth warrants their indiscretions, for, according to a writer in the Pall Hall Gazette (London), this form of combined ink reserroh* and pen has been In use for o?#x 9Q0 years.

In the following century they appear to hare* been in common use, a dictionary published in 1764 defining "fountain pen" as "a pen made of silver, brass, etc., contrived to contain a considerable quantity of ink and let it flow out by degrees. To use the pen the cover must be taken off and the pen a little shaken to make the ink run more freely." British patents were obtained for fountain pens in 1809, one being granted to Joseph Brtmah of Bock fame and another to'F. and bushel crates for sale. 36t2 The readers of this paper will be pleasea *Ej..

When the first glimpse of the fair grounds had been caught by the eye, everyone was impressed with the cleanliness of both build* ings and grounds. The grounds were spacious, but all buildings, especially the grandstand, would bear enlargiug to offer better accommodations for the large crowds. A grandstand on the ball ground* would also adi to the comfort of the base ball fane. The floral hall waB built in the form of n Greek cross. The exhibits placed therein were a pleasure to the eye owing to the tasteful way in which they had been arranged. The poultry and Holstein exhibits were equal in value to those shown at the Michigan State Fair. Every advertised feature of the fair was pnlled off successfully except thn daily flights of the stir ship which only went np on the last day. Trie races were excellent, as were also the ball games between Fowlerville and Webberville Wedru-sday, in which Fowlerville won,, between Gregory and Stockbridge Thursday in which Stockbridge won and the decisive game between the two previously winning teams on Friday ia which Stockbridge won out. The fair this year was Howell's first attempt at a county fair. The committees worked hard and are certainly to be congratulated on the results. A large number from this vicinity attended the fair.

London—With Paris practically in a itate of siege after the removal of the government to Bordeaux some hope was inspired among the allies by the report that the extreme right wing of the German advance had been forced back to a point seventy-five ' miles away. It is not thought that this means that the main attack of the enemy h£s been thereby checked to any great extent. What was considered as very significant was an official statement by the British press bureau, in which it was said a new German movement had developed to the eastward and southeastward. The war office, however, declined to give a definite geographical location for this movement, but military men took it that the Kaiser was trying to close in on Paris from the east and southeast, as well as continuing his efforts from the north of France. British, French and Belgian wounded are being transferred from Paris to other cities, and the great exodus of the populace of the French capital to the south continues. It was officially announced in Paris by the war office that the opposing armies "around Paris have not come in contact They continue their movements, taking positions." The statement added: "The Germans have been checked at Verdun. The French are successful in Lorraine and the Vosges. The situation has not changed." Despite the reports of the momentous developments of the fighting at the front, the officials in Paris,and London continued to maintain their contentions that nothing of importance had developed. From the British war press bureau came the following: "The situation in the French theatre of war has not undergone substantial cha'nge. The position of the allies is well maintained. "There are indications that a German movement Is developing in an eastward and southeastward direction." The Paris war office said: "The movements of the opposed armies outside Paris continued without any attempt having been made by the enemy against our various positions." Every able-bodied Briton of military age was called upon by Prime Minister Asquith to rally to the national standard. Recruiting in England has improved so that divisions totaling 120,000 men are practically fully organized. French Center Reported Broken. German advices from Berlin report that the German army is now pushing through the center and has cap- - tured Mezieres, in the department of Ardennes, where the French center hitherto has been able to hold back the German advance. According to the same advices, the left wing of the allies has now fallen back on its third line of defenses. Berlin newspapers gay that the battle raged between Rheims and Vere dun, beginning Monday and lasting well through Wednesday. The Germans claim a victory in the three days' fighting on the Use from Rheims and Verdun, saying that the French opposition was strongly maintained, but that eventually it was crushed. Russian Soldiers in France. New York—A Russian army of 72,- ; 000 men, transported from Archan- . geL Nussia, was landed at Aberdeen, ' on the east coast of Scotland, on An- ; gust 37, and conveyed on special - t r a i n s to Harwich, Grimsby arid , Dover, where transports were waiting - f v t* teke them to Ostend, in Belgium, ^ according to officers and passengers ' v of ~ the Cnnard liner Mauretania, wife* reached here Thursday night GERMANS LEAVE MOULAND IN RUINS '•••':"'4 H:" ,&» >,(^ from liyersooL Bvery precaution was taken by the * Sngttsh and Bsnstan military authorities, persons on the afanrotsnta said, to keep the fee* thai foreign soldiers 0S^^BIBV^B> , •JS^BSSSSSJBJ •_ * ^SSSSS^SSSSS'JB^^SWIBJ^BJSSF SB^ST", '^BSSBs^ps^eSjSns} J * * * from becoming known and the service on the east coast railway lines was suspended during the 17 hours the troop trains were on their Journey. The passengers said that the trip of the Russian troops from Archangel to Aberdeen occupied three days. It was generally believed by those on the Mauretania who made these statements that the Russians would be joined at Ostend by British marines waiting there to receive then and that the combined forces would co-operate with the Belgian army in Antwerp. Austrlans Are Badly Beaten, London—With Lemberb, the capital of Galicla and the objective of the Russian attack for the past week, captured ,togeJher with a vast amount of cannon and supplies and thousands of prisoners, the Russian invaders are sweeping forward further into Austrian- territory in pursuit of a whipped and terror-stricken army, according to dispatches received here from official and press sources in Petrograd (St. Petersburg). So thorough has become the victory of the Czar's troops, it Is stated at the war office at Petrograd, that the entire Austrian army is in danger of complete annihilation. A German corps has been sent to Galcia to aid the defenders, it is reported from Vienna, but it is believed that the Russians have so completely broken through the line of defense that the reinforcements will prove of little value at this late hour. From all along the line of battle in Galcia come reports of Austrian retreats after fierce fighting, to the dead upon the field of encounter testify. FRENCH CAPITAL IS MOVED Paris—The president and members of the government and all embassies of the allied nations left at 10:50 Wednesday night for Bordeaux, where they will remain during hostilities. A proclamation has been issued by the government announcing that the government departments will be transferred" temporarily to Bordeaux, The proclamation was issued by the minister of the interior, who said the decision had been taken solely on the demand of the military author* ties because * the fortified places of Paris, while not necessarily, likely to be attacked, would become the pivot of the field operations of the two armies. " The building of supplementary defense works Is proceeding vigorously. Several of the gates of Paris have been closed to traffic. Ambassador Herrlck, who has taken charge of the archives and embassies of all the belligerent powers, will remain in Paris with First Secretary Bliss and the second secretary. The United States will be represented in Bordeaux by John W. Garrett, United States ambassador to Argentine, who left with the government, accompanied by Third Secretary Sulzton. Ambassador Herrlck, remaining here, will be enabled to afford protection to Americans, as the ambassadorial residence is neutral territory where Americans may find refuge in case of need. His presence here will also make it possible for the American banking interests to continue operating with a view to relieving possible distress of Americans. The . United States hankers, Morgan, Harjes ft Co., will remain open in Paris, while a special representative with large funds in cash has been dispatched to Bordeaux. Bordeaux Is situated in the extreme southwestern part of the country. This city can be captured by the Germans only after a long march.

" • - \ . yr WILSON ASKS TAX ACT President Reads His Seventh * Message To Congress Deficit In Revenue Caused By War to Be Met By Internal Tax Legislation. Washington—President Wilson personally addressed congress in jojnt session Friday, urging legislation to raise $100,000,000 a year additional revenue through internal taxes to meet a treasury deficit threatened by the conflict in Europe, The president told congress that he discharged a duty which he wished with all his heart he might have been spared, but which he performed without hesitation or apology, because of the danger in present circumstances to create a "moment's doubt as to the strength and sufficiency of the treasury of the United States." While the treasury, he said, could get along for a considerable period, he pointed out the peril of the government's withdrawing from the national banks approximately $75,000,- 000 of the treasury balance deposited there; advised against the government borrowing money or selling bonds which make a "most untimely and unjustifiable demand upon the money market," and appealed to the "intelligent and profoundly patriotic public" to bear the burden of a special tax to meet the unforseen emergency. President Is Cheered. President Wilson was cheered for almost two minutes when he entered the house chamber, his reception being more demonstrative than that which was accorded him when he last appeared before a joint session of the two bodies to read his message on Mexico. While the greater applause came naturally from the Democratic side. Republicans and Progressives joined to an extent in the welcome. The galleries were crowded. This was his seventh appearance to read a message. Apparently there was undiminished interest m the event and admission tickets were at a premium. Secretaries McAdoo and Lane, Postmaster- General Burleson and Attorney-General Gregory occupied seats on the floor, and Secretary Bryan, as usual, sat in the executive gallery. Many Congressmen Absent. Owing to the absence of so many senators and representatives from Washington there was a Bmaller attendance at Friday's joint session than ever before when President Wilson addressed congress. Scores of seats were vacant, while a number of representatives were about to bring their children in to see the president. Another Innovation was the absence of any punctuating applause during the address. When the president first entered the chamber and when he concluded the applause was generous, but at no point during his delivery was there any demonstration what* ever. The president began reading his address promptly at 12:30 o'clock after loud cheers had subsided, and some members of the southern delegations gave him a "rebel yell." Congress listened attentively to' the address. Immediately noon its con- ) elusion the legislative machinery was set in motion to carry its recommendation Into effect. Chairman Underwood called * meeting of the ways and means committee to perfect an internal revenue measure tentatively drafted in preliminary conferences. ( * NEWS TOLD IN BRIEF.

From 700 to 1,000 cattle will be on exhibition, there being fully 000 of the distinctively dairy breeds. This is a greater showing by far than a Michigan Fair has ever aeen.^ In addition to the premiums which are given for each ciaas and which are 25 per ceuUgreater than last year, the State Fair management offers $100 prizes for each fifty heaTF of cattle shown by Michigan cattle breeders' societies. The Holstein breeders have been especially active in their acceptance of the offer, and tbe> Livingston County, Central Michigan, Western Michigan and Eastern Michigan associations have each announced their in* tention ot exhibiting at least half a hundred head. Similar acceptances bare been received from Jersey and Guernsey breeders' associations, while Shorthorn breeders declare they are not to be counted oat. Two other deky features of Importance are announced. The Detroit milU show will be held in conjunction. with the Fair, and the September scoring contest of butter and cheese will be conducted by the state dairy and food | department at the Fair grounds. J. Fred Smith of Howell, member iu charge of the department, and E. <J. Krehl, chief milk Inspector of Detroit, made the milk show announcement Three silver cups and a silk banner will be awarded. A cup will be given for the best specimen of market milk, another for the best specimen of mar ket cream and a third for the best specimen of certified milk. The bau ner will go to the distributer having the highest score in the show. A representative of the United States department of agriculture will score the exhibits, and competition will be open to milk distributers and dairymen throughout Michigan. The scoring will be upon the basis of bacteria, flavor and odor, visible dirt, butter fat, solids not fat, acidity and appearance of package.

The fertility of the farm is increased instead of diminished, and the products of the dairy in the form of milk, butter fat and surplus stock always command a ready cash market at a profitable price. u In the fall of 1912 the present dairy building was completed as a home and headquarters for dairymen who attend the Fair. This year it will be mnoY more easily accessible by the construction of a wide cement walk from the rear of the cattle sheds t& the door of the demonstration barn.

POP S a l e by C. G- Meyer The first "game law" for the protection of 'wild animals and birds was enacted in 1068 by William the Conqueror. This decree of the Norman king was called, a forest law, but Its principal purpose was the preservation of game. Forfeiture of property was made the penalty for killing or ^disabling any kind of wild beast, while the slayer of a stag, buck or bear, if convicted, had his eyes put out These laws, of course, applied only to the masses, since the royalty and nobility were permitted to kill as much as they pleased. In fact, the principal purpose of the pioneer "game law" was to provide sport for the few. The first par- i liamentary game law in England was passed in 1496. Game laws in America have become increasingly strict of late years, but they were adopted too late to save many species, notably the buffalo, from almost complete extinction.— New York World.

Try I t - It Pays Squaretown. The name "Squaretown" has been heard in designation of Adelaide, the capital of the state of South Australia. When that colony was projected it was established to the utmost detail on paper before the colonists set sail from England. The capital was laid out upon a surveyor's drawing board, and all that remained to do on landing was to find a fiat piece of ground on which to drive the stakes. Adelaide Is composed of four areas, a mile in each dimension, these areas being parted by two streets of noble width. Quite around the city extends a park land a mile in width, and this is maintained as a perpetual reserve upon which.the only encroachments are such wholly public establishments as government house, parliament house and botanic gardens on the nortb terrace, the remainder being maintained as park and recreation grounds.—New York Sun. Bsggars on Horseback. Horses are cheap In Chile. According to Francis J. 0. Haiti and In "Chile: Its Land and People," you can buy a horse In Santiago for $25 or $30 and for less lu the country. In Illustration, he quotes a little happening witnessed by Miss May Crommelln In Mendoza: "Up rode a gaucho, dressed In white, if I remember rightly—no worse than bis fellows, at any rate. He bestrode a nag. sorry enough, yet still capable, and wore a medal round, bis neck. OS came his hat with a bow of much grace, but be stretched out his hand toward the window grating imploring alms. 'It's all right; he's one of our beggars. The town has so many licensed ones who are allowed to come round/ said my hostess, looking out over my shoulder. So, Instead of dlsmiaaing him with a little 'Pardon, little brother, for not giving you anything/ some small coins were placed In his palm. 'Dlos lo pa gar a' (God will repny It), was the dignified response, and with a, farewell bow of perfect politeness this beggar on horseback rode on." '* Jts. KXMfttENCt ATENTS TRAD* MARKS DESIONS .

Their household 'goods sold, the 1100 auction money, all they have left, will place Abe In the Old Man's home, or Angy In the Old Ladies' home. Both are self-sacrlflctng but Abe decides: "My dear this is the fust time I've had a chanc« to take the wust of it." The old couple bid good-by to the little house. Terror of "what folks will pay" sends th*m alons by-paths to the gate of the Old Ladles* home. CHAPTER lit—Continued. Now the Amazonian Mrs. Homan, a widow for the third time, made sturdy retort: "That's jest like yew old maids—always a-blamin' the men. Yew kin Jest bet I never would have let one of my husbands go ter the poorhouse. It would have mortified me dretful. It must be a purty poor sort of a woman what can't take the care of one man and keep a roof over his head. Why, my second, Oliver 0., used ter eay—" "Oh!" Miss Bllie wrung her hands, "can't we do somethin'?" "I could do a-plenty," mourned Miss Abigail, "ef I only had been savin'. Here I git a salary o' four dollars a month, an' not one penny laid away." "Yew iergit," spoke some one gently, "that It takes consid'able ter dress a matron proper." Aunt Nancy, who had been sneezing furiously at her own impotence, now -found her speech again. "We're a nice set ter taHc erbout dewin' somethin'—a passel o' poor ole critters like us!" Her cackle of embittered laughter was interrupted by the low, cultivated voice of .the, belle of the home, "Butterfly Blossy." "We've got to do something," said Blossy firmly. .When Blossy spoke with such decision every one of the sisters pricked up her ears. Blossy might be "a shaller- pate;" she might arrange the golden-white hair of her head as befitted the crowning glory of a young girl, with puffs and rolls and little curls, and—more than one sister suspected— with the aid of "rats;" she might gown herself elaborately In the mended finery of the long ago, the better years; ehe might dress her lovely big room—the only double, bedohamber In the house, for which she had paid a double entrance fee—in all sorts of gewgaws, little ornaments, hand-painted plaques of her own producing, lace bedspreads, embroidered splashers and pillow-shams; she might even permit herself a suitor who came twice a year more punctually than the line-storms, to aek her withered little hand in marriage—but her heart was in the right place, and on occasion she had proved herself a master hand at "flxin' things." "Yes," said she, rising to her feet and flinging out her arms with an eloquent gesture, "we've got to do something, and there's just one thing to do, girls; take the captain right here— here"—she brought her hands to the lacee on her bosom—"to our hearts!" At first there was silence, with the ladies staring blankly at Blossy and then at one another. Had they heard aright? Then there came murmurs and exclamations/with Miss Abigail's voice gasping above the others: ] "What would the directors say?" "What do they always say when we ^ a favor?" demanded Blowy. M"How much will it cost?' It won't cost a cent" • "Won't, eh?" snapped Aunt Nancy. '"How on earth be yew goto' to vittle 90a? I. hain't had a second dish o' "peas this year." "Some men eat more an' some less," remarked Sarah Jane, as ill-favored a spinster as ever the sun shone on; "generally it means so much grub Ur so much weight" Miss Abigail glanced up at the celling, while Lasy Daisy, who had refused to tip the beam for ten years, surreptitiously hid an apple Into which she bad been biting. Tie's have 'em weighed," suggested a widow, Ruby Lee, with a pretty, well-preserved little face and figure, "an* e! tergether they don't come up to the heartiest one of us—" Miss Abigail made hasty interruption: •*Oels, hain't yew never noticed that the more yew need the more yew git? Before Jenny Bell went to live with her darter I didn't know what I should dew, for the 'taters was glttin' pooty few. Taw know she used Ur eat twenty ter a meat an' then look hungry a* the platter.

Naow, haow many of yew is willln' ter try !t?" Every head nodded, "I am;" every eye was wet with the dew of merciful kindness; and Mrs. Homan and Sarah Jane, who had flung plates at each other only that morning, were observed to be holding hands. "But haow on arth be we a-goin' ter sleep him?" proceeded the matron uneasily. "Thar hain't a extry corner in the hull place. Puttln' tew people in No. 30 is out of the question—it'B jest erbout the size of a Cinderella shoe box, anyhow, an! the garret le§ks—" She paused, for Blossy was pulling at her sleeve, the real,Blossy, warmhearted, generous, self-deprecating. "I think No. 30 Is Just the coziest little place for one! Do let me take it, Miss Abigail, and give the couple my great big barn of a room." Aunt Nancy eyed her suspiciously. "Yew ain't a-gwine ter make a fool o' yerself, an' jump over the broomstick ag'in?" For Blossy's old suitor, Samuel Darby, had made one of his semiannual visits only that morning. The belle burst into hysterical and self-conscious laughter, ae she found every glance bent upon her. "Oh, no, no; not that. But I confess that I am tired to death of this perpetual dove-party. I just, simply can't live another jninute without a man in the house. "Now, Miss Abigail," she added imperiously, "you run across lots and fetch him home." "Thar, thar, father! Jest think haow dretful I'd feel a-goln' deown without yer." "So you would!" strangely comforted. "So you would, my dear!" For her sake he tried to brighten up. He joked clumsily as they stood on the threshold of the chamber, whispering, blinking his eyes to make up for the lack of their usually ready twinkle. "Hoi' on a minute; supposln' I ferglt whether I be a man er a woman?" Her love gave Inspiration to her answer: "I'll lean on yer, Abe." Juet then there came the loud, Imperative clanging of the breakfastbell; and she urged him to hurry, as "It wouldn't dew" for them to be late the first morning of all times. But he only answered by going back into the room to make an anxious survey of his reflection in the glass. He shook his head reprovingly at the bearded countenance, as if to say: "You need not pride yourself any longer on looking like Abraham Lincoln, for you have been turried into a miserable old woman." Picking up the hairbrush, he held it out at arm's length to Angy. "Won't yew slick up my hair a leetle bit, CHAPTER IV. One of Them. Ah! but Abraham had slept that night as if he had been drawn to rest under the compelling shelter of the wings of all that flock which in happier days he had dubbed contemptuously "them air old hens." Never afterward could the dazed old gentleman remember how he had been persuaded to come into the house and up the stairs with Angeline. He only knew that in the midst of that heartbreaking farewell at the gate, Miss Abigail, alt out of breath with running, red In the face, but exceedingly hearty of manner, had suddenly appeared. "Shoo, shoo, shoo!" this stout angel had gasped. "Naow, Cap'n Abe, yew needn't git narvou*. We're as harmless as doVes. Run right erlong. Yew won't see anybody ternight Don't say a word. It's all right. Sash! Shoo!" And then, lo! he was not in the county almshouse, but in a beautiful, bright bedchamber with a wreath of immortelles over the mantel, alone with Angy. Afterward, It all seemed the blur of a dream to him, a dream which ended when he had found his head upon a cool, white pillow, and had felt glad, glad—dear God, how glad!—to know that Angy was still within reach of his outstretched hand; and so he had fallen asleep. But when he awoke in the morning there stood Angeline in front of the glass taking her hair out of curl papers; and then he slowly began to realize the tremendous change that had come into their lives, when his wife committed the unprecedented act of taking her crimps out before breakfast He realized tha£ they were to eat among strangers. He had become the guest of thirty "women- folks." No doubt he should be called "Old Oal Thirty-one." He got up and dressed very, very slowly. The bewildered gratitude, the Incredulous thanksgiving of last night, were as far away ae yesterday's sunset. A great seriousness settled upon Abe's lean face. At last he burst forth: "One to thirty! Hy-guy, I'm In fer it!" How had it happened, he wondered. They had given him no time to think. They had swooped down upon him when his brain was dulled with anguish. Virtually, they had kidnaped him. Why had they brought him here to accept charity of a women's institution? Why need they thus intensify his sense of shame at his lift's failure, and, above all, at his failure to provide for Angeline? In the poor house he would have been only one more derelict; but here he stood alone to be stared at and pitied and thrown a sickly-satisfying crumb. With a sigh from the very cellar of his being, he muttered: "Aye, mother, why didnt yew let me go on tar the county house? That air's the place fer a worn-out eld hull like me. Hy-guy !M he ejaculated, beads of sweat standing oat on his forehead, *Td rather lay deown an' die th*n fane tham air women,** "That, thar!M soothingly spoke Angy, laying bar hand on hit ana. Why Had They Brought Him Here to Accept Charity of a Woman's institution? mother?" he aeked, somewhat shamefacedly. "I can't see extry well this mornin'." "Why, Abe! It's slicked ez slick ez it kin be naow." However, the old wife reached up as he bent his tall, angular form over her, and smoothed again his thin, wet locks. He laughed a little, self-mockingly, and she laughed back, then urged him into the hall, and, slipping ahead, ted the way downstairs. At the first landing, which brought them into, full view of the lower hall, he paused, possessed with the mad desire to run away and hide, for at the foot of the stairway stood the entire flock of old ladles. Twentynifle pairs of eyeB were lifted to him and Angy, twenty-nine pairs of lips were smilitfg at them. To the end of his days Abraham remembered those smiles. Reassuring, unselfish and tender, they made the old man's heart swell, his emotions go warring together. He wondered, was grateful, yet he grew more confused and afraid. He stared amazed at Angeline, who seemed the embodiment of self-possession, lifting her dainty, proud little gray head higher and higher. She turned to Abraham with a protecting, motherly little gestere of command for him to follow, and marched gallantly on down the stairs. Humbly, trembling at the knees, he came with gingerly steps after the little old wife. How unworthy he was of her now! How unworthy he had always been, yet never realized to the full until this moment. He knew what those smiles meant, he told himself, watching the uplifted faces; they were to soothe his sense of shame and humiliation, to touch with rose this dull gray color of the culmination of his failures. He passecLbls hand over his eyes, fiercely praying that the tears might not come to add to his disgrace. And all the while brave little Angy kept smiling, until with a truly glad leap of the heart she caught sight of a blue ribbon painted in gold shining on the breast of each one of the twenty-nine women. A pale blue ribbon painted in gold with—yes, peering her eyes she discovered that it was the word "Welcome!" The forced smile vanished from Angeline's face. Her eyes grew wet, her cheek white. Her proud figure shrank. She turned and looked back at her husband. Not for one instant did she appropriate the compliment to herself. "This is for you!" her spirit called out to him, while a new pride dawned in her working face. Forty years had she spent apologizing for Abraham, and now she understood how these twenty-nine generous old hearts had raised him to the pedestal of a hero, while she stood a heroine beside him. Angy it was who trembled now, and Abe, gaining a manly courage from that, took hold of her arm to steady her—they had paused on a step near the foot of th.e stairs—and, looking around with his whimsical smile, he demanded of the bedecked company in general, "Ladies, be yew 'spectin' the president?" Cackle went the crackefl old voices of the twenty-nine in a chorus of appreciative laughter, while the old heads bobbed at one another as if to eay, "Won't he be an acquisition?" And then, from among the group there came forward Blossy—Blossy, who had sacrificed most that this should come to pass; Blossy, who had sat till midnight painting the gold-and-blue ribbons; Blossy, the pride and beauty of the home, in a delicate, old, yellow, real lace gown. She held her two hands gracefully and mysteriously behind her back as she advanced to the foot of the Btairs. Looking steadily ; in Abraham's eyes, she kept a-smillng until he felt as if the warmth of a belated spring had beamed upon him. "The president!" Her mellow, wellmodulated voice shook, and she laughed with a mingling of generous joy and tender pity. "Are we expecting the president? You dear, modeet man! We are welcoming—you!" Abe looked to Angy as if to* say, "How shall I take it?" and behold! the miracle of his wife's bosom swelling and swelling with pride in him. He turned back, for Blossy was making a speech. His hand to his head, he bent his good ear to listen. In terms poetical and touching ehe described the loneliness of the life at the home as it had been with no man under the roof of the house and only a deafand- dumb gardener who hated her sex, In the barn. Then in contrast she painted life as it must be for the sisters now that the thirty tender vines had found a stanch old oak for their clinging. "Me?" queried Abraham of himself and, with another silent glance, of Angy. (TO BE CONTINUED.) GOODYEAR TIRES AT ANTE-BELLUM PRICES The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. announce "No war prices on Goodyear TireB." Mr. F. A. Sleberling, president of the Company, thus explains their unique position. "We advanced Goodyear prices, as others did theirs, when the rubber panic came. Almost in a day crude rubber rose in New York from 55 cents per pound to much over a dollar. "The New York supply was too small to consider. We cabled our London people to buy up the pick of the rubber there. By acting quickly and paying cash they obtained 1,500,- 000 pounds of the finest rubber. "That big supply of rubber is now nearly all on the way to the Goodyear factory in Akron. It constitutes the best of the London supply. "We are using the same grade of rubber and the same amount of it as we always have used in these tires. "We are running our factory with three shifts of men, twenty-four hours a day. So long as we remain in this fortunate position on rubber, we shall supply tire weers at before-war prices to the limit of our capacity."

Attendance at school is voluntary, not obligatory. Seventy-Six per cent of the children in Spain are illiterate. How Breathing Smoke Hurts Cattle. The effect of smoke on cattle was the subject of an inquiry addressed to farmers in the vicinity of Leeds, England, in connection with the investigation being carried out at Leeds university concerning the effects of atmospheric pollution on vegetation. It was learned that the effects of a smoky atmosphere on both cattle and horses are marked; young stock do not thrive, while older animals require more food and greater care than those living in a less contaminated atmosphere. The effects are partly due to the respiration of. the smoke-laden air, and party to the Inferior quality of the grass growing under such conditions. The raising of sheep is even more difficult, because of the depreciation in value of the wool due to the smoke, and is rarely attempted near Leeds. Short Hours.

A prominent Georgia physician went through a food experience which ha makes public. "It waa my own experience that first led me to advocate Grape-Nuts food and I also know, from having prescribed it to convalescents and other weak patients, that the food is a wonderful rebullder and restorer of nerve and brain tisane, as well as muscle. It improves the digestion and sick patients gain very rapidly, Just as I did in strength and weight "I was in such a low state that I had to give up my work entirely, and went to the mountains of this state, but two months there did not improve me; In fact I was not quite aa wall aa when I left home, "My food did not sustain ma and it became plain that I must change. Then I began to use Grape-Nuts food and in two weeks I could walk a mils without fatigue, and in five weeks returned to my home and practice, ten- Ing up hard work again. Since that time I have felt as wall and strong as I ever did in my life.

But the kidneys give early signals of distress that should not be mistaken. Backache, headaches, dizzy spells, ftaenmatic pains, too frequent, scanty or painful urinatlod. are all signs of kidney weakness and should not be mistaken. When these warnings appear, use Doan'n Kidney Pills, the reliable, successful, strongly recommended kidney remedy. Help the medicine by drinking water freely, hold to good habits and a serious Attack of kidney disease may be avoided. Public testimony is the best proof of merit. A Michigan Case. Mrs. ' Mary E.

Once there was a Girl with a gleaming New Hampshire Forehead who used to exchange helpful Books with a studious young Man who had an Intellect of high Voltage. It will not be necessary to name these Books, as you never heard of them. Laura and Edgar were Comrades, in a way. They met under the Student Lamp and talked about Schopenhauer and Walter Pater, but the Affair never got beyond that Point It was not even warm enough to be called Platonic. It carried about as much Romantic Suggestion as a cold Hot Water Bottle. There grew up between them merely a Fellowship of the Super-Mind, or what a Wimp wearing Tortoise-Shell Spectacles would call Cosmahogany. Having cleared away the Underbrush, we will now proceed with the Narrative. Like every other Member of the Tribe of Mansard Mentalities, they regarded with much Contempt the School of Popular Fiction. Do you think they would stand for any of that old-style Guff about Sir Ralph getting the Hammer-Lock on Dorothy just outside the Loggia? Not on your Thought Waves! They regarded the Article commonly called Love as a lingering Symptom of some primeval Longing for Parlor Entertainment. It was agreed that each Soul was free and independent and had a,right to run on its own private Time-Table. Laura said she was going to live her Life in her own Way and that no Wallopus in striped Trousers could leave her marooned in a Flat, working under Sealed Orders. Edgar did not choose to carry Overweight while working out his Career and grew faint at the very Thought of there was not a Voice to break the celestial Silence. He figured that Children must be an awful Worry. He brooded over the Kid Proposition so much that soon after he was 30 years of Age he used to go around and borrow his Nephews and Nieces and take them to the Circus and buy expensive Presents for them and upset the Household Rules. Occasionally he would take a new Book dealing with the Higher Things of Life up to his old friend Laura and he would find her feeding the Birds, with the Cat asleep in the Corner and an imported Dog with many Curls preempting the principal Chair. They would discuss Prison Reform and Kipling and other Subjects in no way related to the awakening of the Maternal Instinct. When he owned up to 40 and she had stopped talking about it, the Reading Habit was no longer a Novelty with him, so merely to kill Time, hff was acting on the Visiting Board of an Orphan Asylum and was a Director of the Fresh Air Fund and was putting the Office Boy through a Business College. About the same time Laura was made the victim of a Conspiracy. A designing Day Laborer and his Wife deliberately up and died, leaving a Chick of a Daughter, all helpless and alone. Laura simply had to go over and grab the Young One and play Mother to her, because it all happened hardly I a Mile from her own Door-Step. She had been dodging these commonplace and old-fashioned Responsibilities all her Life and now cruel Circumstances compelled her to spend Hours in servile Attentions to a stray Specimen. Of course, she had Expert Advice of her old friend, Edgar, who made out the Adoption Papers and sent a lot of Merchandise up to the House, out of They Scouted the Suggestion That It Was a Love Match. shouldering a lot of Domestic Responsibilities. Marriage was an institution devised for Strap-Hangers who wanted, to get their Names Into the Paper. It was a childish' Refuge for those who lacked Courage to forsake the beaten Paths and strike out for the High Spots. It will he seen that they were somewhat Advanced. As far back as 1890 they were living in the 21st Century. Laura went in for Club Work and Cold Baths and Card-Indexing. She felt sorry for the Married Women. They were always fussed up over getting a^Laundress or telling about new cases of Scarlet Rash or else 'phoning the Office to make sure that the Bread-Winner was at the Desk and behaving himself. When she let down her Hair at Night she did not have to do any checking up or put the bottle of Squills on the Radiator. She was Free and Happy. A little lonesome on Rainy Days, but the freest thing you ever saw and she had iter Books. Edgar looked about him and saw the Slaves of Matrimony watching the Clock and getting ready to duck at 1} p. m. and he rejoiced inwardly. He could land in at his little Indtf pendente Hall at 3 g. m. and turn on all the Lights and drape his Wardrobe over the Ruga and light Cigarettes and the promptings of a broad and general sentiment of Pity for the Unfortunate: Even when they stood up to be Married they were still stringing themselves. . He was bald and grizzled and she was a little droopy around the Shoulders and had not been able to massage away the more important Wrintles. They scouted.the Suggestion that It was a Love Match. It seemed that she needed a Night Watchman and he was "afraid to be alone In the Dark with the Memories of the Past. MORAL: After you pass forty you must take charge of something Human, even if it is only a chauffeur. Time's One Regrst.

NEVER REASON FCR ALARM American Woman Under No Apprehension When She Travels in Her Own Country. Mrs. Charles H. Anthony, who, with 15 trunk louds of gowus of her own design, has gone ^o Europe to te*ach the European dressmakers a lesson, said in the restaurant of the steamer: "The American woman is the besi dressed woman in the world. And the American man is the best dressed man in the world—a fact so well recognized in Europe that he doesn't have to go over there with 15 trunks to establish his claim. "Yes, in dress as in morals, the American man leads. "And how splendid his morals are! "A girl sculptor from the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts was traveling in the wilds of the West alone. " 'But aren't you afraid to travel unprotected?' an English rancher asked her. "'No; oh, no,' she answered. 'Besides, I don't travel unprotected. I never venture beyond the call of the American gentleman.' "—Washington Star.

Flowers blooming on icebergs would certainly be a rare Bight, but travelers in the northern portions of the Pacific and sometimes in the north Atlantic have witnessed this strange but very beautiful spectacle. It appears that some animals carry on their feet a growth of moss, which is deposited on the ice while It is attached to the main land in polar regions. In time this de cays and forms a shallow soil, in which the seed of buttercups and dandelions often nnd a lodging, borne by currents of wind that doubtless caught them ui> In some southern clime.

Workers Without Wages. Birds live to eat It is lucky for men they do. Some years ago a French scientist, told the world that 4f all the birds should suddenly die man would have only a year's life left to him and proved his point to the satisfaction of other scientists. How much does a bird eat? Take a robin as an example. It eats at certain seasons of the year about double its weight in insects and worms every day. The bird's dinner hour begins at sunrise and ends an hour after sunset Any legislation looking to the shortening of its hours or labor, which are coincident with its hours of eating, would bring famine. All the song birds and all the silent birds give their service to man, and they ask no pay for It except to be let alone.—Our Dumb Animals. Fishskin Drettss. * Among the most curious as well as wonderful of garments are tbe fish* dkh* Jesses worn by wealthy women of the gold tribe along the Amur river in east Siberia. These women produce some extraordinary ornaments, designs and embroidery. The dresses mentioned are composed of several layers of fishskin, the undermost representing the skin of the garment proper, the uppermost showing tbe ornaments in their cutout forms. Between these two layers there is another layer that serves to throw out distinctly tbe beautiful qualities of the ornaments. The pieces of fishskin that form the ornaments are usually blue. Tbe front and back of tbe dress are adorned with these cutout pieces of .fishskin sewed with fishskin thread. Only Jar of Its Kind. Horace Walpote tell* a lively story of an old porcelain vender who had an exceedingly rare and valuable jar on which he set an olmost fabulous price. One hot summer n slight volcanic shock, such as the British isles occasionally experience, jogged his house about his ears nnd split the porcelain vase. To an ordinary mind the accident would have been calamitous, but the china seller rose superior to tortune. Re doubled the price of the article.

Jobw The Flower Fete Under the auspices of the M. E. Sunday School a Flower Fete was given at the Pinckney Opera House Friday evening in which nearly fifty characters took part. The curtains arose revealing a woodland bower in which the queen of the flowers, Miss Mary Beiman, sat enthroned. Soon Mother Earth, Sunshine, Rain and Dew-drops made their appearance and were commanded to bring forth the flowers of the kingdom. By the united efforts of these courtiers dear little for-get-tne-nots which bloom for happy lowers, dainty snow-drops, soldierly dandelions, scarlet poppies, blushing roses, shy violets with their grown up pansy sisters, yellow buttercups and fortune-telling daisies all came to bow obeisance to their queen. The crepe-paper dresses which were worn by the children, so fashioned as to represent perfectly each flower subject, made the spectacle resemble a huge garden in which the flowers, suddenly endowed with life, were dancing and singing in the bright moon-light. The last flower to enter the court of her queen was the Fiower of Liberty, our American flag, after which thejaudience joined in singing America. The play was put on under the superintendency of Mrs. E. C. Glenn. She was assisted by the teachers of the various classes of the Sunday School. Mrs, Glenn worked very hard for the success of the Fete and is indeed to be heartily congratulated upon its reception. The audience fully appreciated the unique production. The flowers made their appearance upon the stage to tae strains of tinkling music ably rendered by Miss Blanche Martin, pianist. She was assisted by H. W. Watts aud son and Chas. Martin. Following the Carnival, James White of Cincinatti, Ohio, entertained the audience with some very interesting, also humorous moving pictures. The entertainment was well-given and very much enjoyed.

RUSSIA MAKES ANNOUNCEMENT OF TERMS OF PEACE Editorial in Leading St. Petersburg Newspaper Doubtless Inspired by the Czar. CONFIDENCE IN ULTIMATE VICTORY VERY APPARENT Pronouncement Significant If the Allies Should Be Victorious—-Berlin Officially Admit* Retirement of German Troops—British Army to Be Enormously Increased—Losses Have Been Heavy. The Rech, leading Petrograd (St. Petersburg) newspaper, anticipating negotiations for peace in the near future, editorially discusses the probable terms of final settlement as follows : v, "The war must be terminated in such a way that It shall leave no vengeful associations on either side. The changes in the map of Europe must be final, and no nationality must be opposed in the satisfaction of its legitimate ambition. "This ideal, however, is irreconcilable with the hegemony of P rue si a in Germany. Further, it is irreconcilable with the division of Poland and the treaty of Bucharest. "The unifications of Russia, Italy, Germany, Roumania and Senria must be completed. France must receive what has been taken from her, and Bulgaria also. "A hundred years' fight for the principle of nationality must finish with a decision free from all compromise, and therefore final." Exaggerate Damage Reports. That he demolition of Belgian towns has been greatly exaggerated is the statement contained in dispatches to the German embassy at Washington. England's casualties in the war to date are 18,729, composed of 689 officers and 18,140 men of other ranks, according to an official bureau statement, which added 134 officers and 8,464 men of other ranks to the list. Berlin Officially Admits Defeat An official message from the German war minister to General von Stein at Amsterdam states that the German army has been heavily attacked by the enemy between Paris, Meux and Montmirail. The fighting, the message states, lasted two days, and the enemy won the battle, obliging the German troops to retire. Fifty guns were taken, together with thousands of prisoners. The British army is to be raised as quickly as possible to 1,501,830 men At the beginning of the war all the ranks mustered but 186,400; since then 439,00« recruits have been received. The volunteers in the first fortnight of the war amounted to 8,000 dairy; these are now over thirty thousand daily. The 1,601,830 men will include the territorials. GENERAL VIEW OP THE W A R > Ths rapid advance of the enveloping movement by which the allies are turning ths German right flank is beginning to have a decisive Influence on ths German campaign. Ths reported/ retreat of ths Germans to Soiasons cuts them off from their natural lines of communication. . Indeed ths alttsd move Is so threatening to the entire rear of the Germans' right flank that they have to consider the alternative of getting quick results in their attacks on the French lines or else retiring in time to save their right wing from disaster. The mention of this turning force of the allies as a British and French army indicates that the British have been rushing forward their later expeditions via Havre and Dieppe and moving them to the front as a separate army. The retrogression of the German army of General von Kluck freed the garrison of Paris from its primary duty of manning the forts. Detachments from this service can well be spared, sufficient to form an additional corps to strengthen the allies' left flank. New Point of Attack. Dispatches develop a new point of attack which has been little mentioned. The fifth German army, after making the turning movement around Verdun, seems to have moved southeast up the valleys of the Aire and Aisne rivers. So great was the pressure of Its attacks that the French line was forced back to Souilly and the line of the Ornain river! The day's wireless report from Berlin of the capture of fortifications near Verdun refers to the operations of this army. This portion of the French line is in a dangerous position. In their efforts to hold the fortress of Verdun the French left a salient protruding line. This salient 1B now exposed to attack both on east and west. A success by the Germans on either side would take the other side in rear and would result in serious losses during the withdrawal. Chance for Germany. If the Germans succeeded in such a move they would isolate Verdun and have a chance to bring to bear upon it the same tactical use of heavy artillery that resulted in the capture of Liege, Namur and Longwy. The French armies would be forced back to the general line running from Vitry to Toul. Such a success on the part of the Germans would not have a decisive effect on the battle, but it would have important value in shortening their front of operations and in facilitating the supply of their troops. By throwing open a new line of operations, it would tend to counterbalance the contraction of such lines on the right flank due to the allies' turning movement. It is too soon to make any estimate as to the outcome of this bat- Operations Before Paris. The Germans were driven back 3f miles on their right flank as a result of five days of fighting since the allies defending Paris started their counter offensive. In the center of the Prussian Guard was routed by the French and chased to the north of St. Gond's marshes, while the situation remains In the main unchanged, with heavy fighting in progress near Vitry-le-Francois. Near Nancy the Germans gained slightly along the road to Chateau Saline, in German Lorraine, while the allies progressed in the forest of Champenoux, on the Franco-German border. All these announcements were contained in official dispatches of the French war office at Bordeaux. An Exchange teiegram from Ostend to London said it was reliably stated that the Belgians assumed a triumphant offensive movement, having driven the enemy back from the environs of Louvaln. A cut In the German line of communications in the east has been effected by the allies, according to a London correspondent in France. Other reports reaching London say the British troops raided the German lines of communication, and are now essaying a flank attack in force. It is persistently reported, also, that a large force of fresh troops is moving forward from the region Of Ostend, with a view of severing the invaders' line of retreat. The following official statement, claiming victory all along the allies' center in the battle of the Marne, as well as on the allies' left flank, was issued by the French war office September 12: "On the left wing our success becomes marked. Our progress continues north of the Marne In the direction of Soissons and Compiegne. "The Germans have abandoned a considerable quantity of munitions with wounded and prisoners. We have taken another flag. "The British army has captured 11 gunar with other Important war material, and has made from twelve to fifteen hundred prisoners. "At the center the enemy have given way along the whole front between Sezanne and Revigny. He has not yet recoiled in the Argonne. "In spite of the heroic fight of our troops throughout these five days of battle, they still have energy to follow the enemy." tie. While the allies have a greater total force, the Germans have drawn in their columns and massed their troops in a way that gives them a numerical superiority at the point of contact. Depends on Artillery. The outcome is going to depend largely on the French artillery. If the French gung can hold their positions and maintain their fire, the German losses In assault will be so great as to make success impossible. All signs indicate that the Germans have reached the limit of their available force for the French campaign. To gain sufficient strength for the last effort they have had to strip the country from Ghent, Belgium, to Muelhausen, Alsace. The latest news changes the situation in East Prussia. The German armies in this region have been^ greatly re-enforced and have again inflicted on the Russian army of invasion a blow that will seriously delay its advance.* During the last ten days the Germans have made use of their better rail system to push forward to East Prussia such great numbers of reserve organizations that they have overpowered the south wing of the Russian army and have forced it back into the lake region of Prussia The report from Berlin of the defeat of the Twenty-second Russian corps of Lyck, if confirmed, will indicate a disastrous defeat for the Russians.

It first appeared as tiny clear blisters and in places the blisters were so close together that they almost formed one large blister. The skin was rough and cracked open. At times it was so bad that it disabled me; my hands became so sore that I could scarcely use them. "I used every remedy that I could find but nothing seemed to do any good. .

Hall's Catarrh Core is the only positive cure now known to (he inedieal fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is t^ken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work.

Why should they fail? Suppose 95 per cent of the people died of diptheria, what would we Bay? There is no more reason in 95 per cent of merchants failing in business than th^re would be reason in 9-5 per cent of the people dying of diptheria. It is pure waste. Statistics prove that 85 per cent of the merchants who fail in business are non-ad vert icing merchants. Advertising is the onlo antitoxin. • hesulte of good advertising are certain.

The profession of dentistry stood higher In Byron's esteem than the profession of arms. In September, 1820, on hearing that his favorite dentist had died, Byron wrote to John Murray: "The death of Waite Is a shock to the teeth as well as to the feelings of all who knew him. I left him in the most robust health and little thought of the national loss In so short a time. He was much superior to Wellington in national greatness, as he who preserves the teeth la preferable to the warrior who gains a name by breaking heads and knocking out grind* ers. Who succeeds him? Where is tooth powder, mild and yet efficacious; where is tincture, where are clearing roots and brushes now to be obtained? * * * I knew that Waite bad married, but little thought that the other disease was so soon to over take him."

The money was to be paid back by installment, the machine to remain the property of the grandfather until the last payment bad been made. The other day while out riding Mark met Mr. Waggener and jumped off the motorcycle. "Say. grandfather," said the boy, "who does this machine belong to?" "It belongs to me until you have made the Inst payment That was the agreement, you know. But why do you ask?" questioned Mr. Waggener. "Well, 1 Just wHnted to make sure," remarked Mark, with a grin.

Captain A b r a h a m Uos« and Angellne, ma wile, have lost their little liume through Abe's unlucky purchase of T e n a - ny Quid mining stock. Their household «ooda sold, the $100 auction money, all t h e y have left, will place Abe in the Old M a n ' s homy, or Angy In the Old Ladies' home. Both a r e self-sacrificing but Abe decides: "My dear this is the fust time I ye had a chance to take the wust of it." T h e old couple bid good-by to tho little house. Terror of " w h a t folks will Bay" • e n d s them along by-paths to tho gate of the Old Ladles' homr.

But what was this? Blooey, leading all the others in a resounding call of "Welcome!" and then Blosaj drawing her two hands from behind her back. One held a huge blue cup, the other the saucer to match. She placed the cup in the saucer and held it out to Abraham. He trudged down the few steps to receive it, unashamed now of •the tears that coursed down his cheeks. With a burst of delight he perceived that It was a mustache cup, such a6 the one he had always used at home until it had been set for safekeeping on the top pantry shelf to await the auction, where it had brought the price of eleven cents with half a paper of tacks thrown in. And now as the tears cleared away he saw, also, what Angy's eyes had already noted, the Inscription in warm crimson letters on the shining blue side of the cup, "To Our Beloved ^Brother." ' "Sisters," he mumbled, for he could do no more than mumble as he took his gift, "ef yew'd been gittin* ready fer me six months, yew couldn't have done no better." CHAPTER V. Tho Head of the Corner. Everybody wore their company manners to the breakfast table—the first time In the whole history of the home when company manners had graced the initial meal of the day. Being pleasant at supper was easy enough, Aunt Nancy used to say, for every one save the unreasonably cantankerous, and being agreeable at dinner was not especially difficult; but no one short of a paint could be expected to smile of mornings until sufficient time had been given to discover whether one "Brother Abe—That's What We've All Agreed to Call Yew." had stepped out on the wrong or the right side of the bed. This morning, however, no time was Deeded to demonstrate that everybody In tho place bad gotten .out on the happy side of bis conch. Even the deetand-dumb gardener bad untwisted fill enrly temper, and as Abraham entered the dining-room, looked In at the east window with a conciliatory grin and nod which said plainly a* words: M Tie a welcome fight Indeed to see one of my own kind around this estab- Hahmentr "Why dont he come in r questioned Abe, waving back a greeting as well as he could with the treasured cup in one of his hands and the saucer in the other; whereupon Sarah Jane, that ugly duckling, explained that the fellow, being a confirmed woman hater, cooked all his own meals in the smoke house, and Insisted upon all his orders being left on a slate outside the tool-house door. Abe sniffed disdainfully, contemplating her homely countenance, over which this morning's mood had cast a not unlovely transforming glow. "Why, the scalawag!" He frowned so at the face in the window that It immediately disappeared, "Yew don't m<?Min ter tell me he's cot ag'In yew gal?? He must be crazy! Sech a handScme, clever set o' women I never did see!" < Sarah Jane blushed to the roots of her thin, straight hair and sat down, suddenly disarmed of every porcupine quill that she had hidden under her wings; while there was an agreeable little stir among the sisters. "Set deown, all hands! Set deown!" enjoined Miss Abigail, fluttering about with the heaviness of a fat gooee. "Brother Abe—that's what we've all agreed to call yew, by unanimous vote—yew set right here at the foot of the table. Aunt Nancy always had the head an' me the foot; but I only kept the foot, partly becuz thar wa'n't no man fer the place, and partly becuz I was tew sizable ter squeeze in anywhar else. Seeln' as Sister Angy is sech a leetle mite, though, I guess she kin easy make room fer me t'other side o' her." Abe could only bow hie thanks as he put his gift down on the table and took the prominent place assigned to him. The others seated, there was a solemn moment of waiting with bowed heads. Aunt Nancy's trembling voice arose—the voice which had jealously guarded the right of saying grace at table In the Old Ladles' home for twenty years—not, however, In the customary words of thanksgiving, but in a peremptory "Brother Abe!" Abraham looked up. Could Bhe possibly mean that he was to establish himself as the head of the household by repeating grace? "Brother Abe!" she called upon him again. "Yew've askt a blessln' fer one woman fer many a year; supposin1 yew ask it fer thirty!" Amid the amazement of the other sisters, Abe mumbled, and muttered, and murmured—no one knew what words; but all understood the overwhelming gratitude behind his incoherency, and all joined heartily in the Amen. Then, while Mrs. Homan, the cook of the week, went buetllng out into the kitchen, Aunt Nancy felt that It devolved upon her to explain her action, It would never do, she thought, for her to gain a reputation for selfeffacement and sweetness of disposition at her time of life. "Son, I want yew to understand one thing naow at the start. Yew treat us right, an' we'll treat you right. That's all we ask o' yew. Miss Ellie, pass the radishes." "I'll do my best," Abe hastened to aesure her. "Hy-guy, that coffee smells some kind o* good, don't it? Between the smell o' the stuff an' the looks o' my cup, it'll be so temptin' that I'll wish I had the neck of a gi-raffe, an' could taste it all the way deown. Angy, I be afraid we'll git the gout a-Hvin' so high. Look at this here cream!" Smiling, joking, his lips insisting upon joking to cover the natural feeling of embarrassment incident to this first meal among the sisters, but with hie voice breaking now and again with emotion, while from time to time he had to steal his handkerchief to his old eyes, Abe passed successfully through the—to him—elaborate breakfast. And Angy sat In rapt silence, but with her face shining so that her quiet was the stillness of eloquence. Once Abe* startled them all by rising stealthily from the table and seizing the morning's newspaper, which lay upon the buffet "I knowed It!" caviled Laay Daisy sotto voce to no one in particular. "He couldn't wait for the news till he was through eatin'l" But Abe had folded the paper into a stout weapon, and, creeping toward the window, despatched by a quick, adroit movement a fly which had alighted upon the screen. "I hate the very sight o' them sir pesky critters," he explained half apologetically. "Thar, that's another one," and slaughtered that "My, but yew kin got 'em, cant yewr* spoke Mies Abigail admiringly. "Them tew be tho very ones.I tried tor ketch «11 day yiate'day; I Un see as a fly-keteher yew be a-goin* ter be wuth a farm ter me. Sot deown an' try some o' this hers strawberry preserve," But Abe- protested that he could not eat another bite unless he should get up and run around the house to "joggle deown" what he had already swallowed. He leaned back in his chair and surveyed the family: on his right, generous-hearted Blossy, who had been smiling approval and encouragement at him all through the repast; at hie left, and just beyond Angy, Miss Abigail indulging in what remained on the dishes now that she discovered the others to have finished; Aunt Nancy keenly watching him from the head of the board; and all the other sisters "betwixt an' between." He caught Mrs. Horaan's eye where she stood In the doorway leading Into the kitchen, and remarked pleasantly: "Ma'am, yew oughter set up a pancake shop in 'York. Yew could make a fortune at it. I hain't had Bech a meal o' vlttlee senoe I turned fifty year o' age." A flattered smlie overspread- Mrs. Homan's visage, ar/d the other sisters, noting it, wondered how long It would be before she showed her claws In Abraham's presence. "Hy-guy, Angy," >.b* went on, "yew cun't believe nothln' yew hear, kin yer? Why, folks have told me that yew ladies— What yew hlttin' my foot fer, mother? Folks have told me," a twinkle of amusement In his eye at the absurdity, "that yew fight among yerselvee like cats an' dogs, when, law! I never see sech a clever lot o' women gathered tergether in all my life. An' I believe—mother, I hain't a-sayin' nothin'! I jest want ter let 'era know what I think on 'em. I believe that thar must be three hunderd hearts in this here place 'stid o' thirty. But dew yew know, gals, folks outside even go so fur 's ter say that yew throw plates at one another!" There was a moment's silence; then* a little gasp first from one and then from another of the group. Every one, looked at Mrs. Homah, and from Mrs. Homan to Sarah Jane. Mrs. Homan tightened her grip on the pancake turner; Sarah Jane uneasily moved her long fingers within reach of a sturdy little red-and-white pepper pot. Another moment passed, in which the air seemed filled with the promise of an electric storm. Then Blossy spoke hurriedly—Blossy, the tactician— clasping her hands together and bringing Abe's attention to herself. "Really! You surprise me! You don't mean to say folks talk about us like that!" "Slander is a dretful long-legged critter," amended Miss Abigail, smiling and sighing in the same breath. "Sary Jane," inquired Mrs. Homan sweetly, "what's the matter with that pepper pot? Does it need flllin'?" And so began"the reign of peace in the Old Ladies' home. I CHAPTER VI, Indian Summer. Miss Abigail had not banked in vain on the "foresightedness of the Lord." At the end of eix months, Instead of there being a shortage in her accounts because of Abe's presence, she was able to show the directors such a balance sheet as excelled all her previous commendable records. "How do you explain it?" they asked her. "We cast our bread on^ the waters," she answered, "an' Providence jest kept a-eendin' out the loaves." Again she said. " 'Twas grinnin' that done it. Brother Abe he kept the gardener good-natured, an' the gardener he jest grinned at the garden sass until it was ashamed not ter flourish; an' Brother Abe kept the gals good-natured an' they wa'n't so niasy about what they eat; an' he kept the visitors a-laughln' jest ter see him here, an' when yew make folks laugh they want ter turn around an'-fiew somethin' fer yew. I tell yew, ef yew kin only keep grit ernough ter grin, yew kin drive away a drought." In truth, there had been no drought In the garden that summer, but almoet a double yield of corn and beans; no drought In the gifts sent to the home, but showers of plenty. Some of these came in the form of fresh fish and clams left at the back door; some In luscious fruits; some In barrels of clothing. And the barrels of clothing solved another problem; for no longer did their contents consist solely of articles of feminine attire. "Blled shirts" poured out of them; socks and breeches, derby hats, coats and negligees; until Aunt Nancy with a humorous twist to her thin lips inquired if there were thirty men in this establishment and one woman. "* "I never thought I'd come to wearin' a quilted silk basque with toaeels on it," Abe remarked one day on being urged to try on a handsome smoking jacket. "Dew I look like one of them sissy-boys, er jest a dude?" "It's dretful becoming," Insisted Angy, "bewtiful! Ain't it, gals?" Every old lady nodded her head with an air of proud proprietorship, as if to say, "Nothing could fall to become our brother." And Angy nodded her head, too, in delighted approval of their appreciation of "our brother" and "my husband." Beautiful, joy-steeped, pleasure-filled daye these were for the couple, who had been cramped for life's smallest necessities so many meager years. SHOULD BE AT THE FRONT "I Never 8ee 8uch a Clever Lot of Women." Angy felt that she had been made miraculously young by the birth of this new Abraham—almost as if at laet she had been given the son for whom in her youth she had prayed with impassioned appeal. Her old-wife love became rejuvenated into a curious mixture of proud mother-love and young-wife leaning, ae she saw Abe win every heart and become the center of the community. "Why, the sisters all think the sun rises an' sets in him," Angy would whisper to herself sometimes, awed by the glorious wonder of it all. The sisters fairly vied with one another to see how much each could do for the one man among them. Their own preferences and prejudices were magnanimously thrust aside. In a body they besought their guest to smoke as freely in the house as out of doors. Miss Abigail even traded some of her garden produce for tobacco, while Miss Ellie made the old gentleman a tobacco pouch of red flannel so generouB in its proportions that on a pinch it could be used as a chest protector. Then Ruby Lee, not to be outdone by anybody, produced, from no one ever discovered where, a mother-ofpearl manicure set for the delight and mystification of the hero; and even Lazy Daisy went so far as to cut some red and yellow tissue paper into squares under the delusion that some time, somehow, she would find the energy to roll these into spills for the lighting of Abe'e pipe. And each and every sister from time to time contributed Borne gift or suggestion to her •'brother's" comfort (TO BB CONTINUED.)

Newspaper Men With Warring Armies Would Accelerate the Course of History in Europe. A conscientious news editor of our acquaintance is much embarrassed and annoyed by the fact that the meager news from the seat of war in Europe supplies very unsatisfactory material for emphatic, clear-cut head lines. He boldly couples the dearth of decisive developments in the field with the rigid exclusion of newspaper correspondents from the immediate area of hostilities, and cites as precedent and authority the following anecdote related as happening in the office of a certain ewspaper in Berlin: A member of the staff had been directed by the chief to go to Dlnkelsbuhl and act as correspondent there. He objected stoutly to the assignment on the ground that nothing ever Happened in Dlnkelsbuhl. The chief rebuked htm sharply. "Are you not aware, my young friend," he said, "that nothing ever does happen anywhere unless there Is a newspaper man on the ground?" The editor urgently submits that the course of history in Europe would be greatly accelerated and the world notably advantaged if the ban on correi spondents at the front were lifted. Was Noted Catholic Prelate. James Roosevelt Bayley, the predecessor of Cardinal Gibbons as archbishop of Baltimore, was born 100 years ago in Rye, N. Y. He originally intended to make medicine his vocation, but abandoned the study at the end of one year, and in 1840 was ordained a priest of the Protestant Episcopal church. Assailed by religious doubts, he visited Rome in 1841 and was received Into the Roman Catholic church. Several .years after his return to America he became president of St. John's college, Fordham, N. Y. In 1853 he became first bishop of Newark, N. J. Here he founded Seton Hall college and translated to the archiepiscopal see of Baltimore, the highest honor the church had to offer in the United States. Great Salt Production. The marketed production of salt In the United States, including Hawaii and Porto Rico, in 1913 reached the record-breaking total of 34,399,298 barrels of 280 pounds each, or 4,815,902 short tons. The value of the product was $10,123,139. These figures are the greatest yet recorded by the United States geological survey for the salt Industry In the United States, and they represent an Increase of 3 per cent in quantity produced and of nearly 8 per cent in value compared with 1912.

When a simple change of diet brings back health and happiness the story is briefly told. A lady of Springfield, 111., says: "After being afflicted for years with nervousness and heart trouble, I re* ceived a shock four years ago that left me in such a condition that my life was despaired of. "I got no relief from doctors nor from the numberless heart and nerve remedies I tried, because I didn't know that coffee was daily putting me back more than the doctors could put me ahead. "Finally at the suggestion of a friend I left off coffee and began the use ol Postum, and against my expectations I gradually improved in health until fon, the past 6 or 8 months I have been entirely free from nervousness and! those terrible sinking, weakening spells of heart trouble. "My troubles all came from the use of coffee which I had drunk from childhood and yet they disappeared when I quit eoffee and took up the use y of Postum."

Once there were two Home Boys Who sallied forth from a straggling Village in search of an irrational Female known as Dame Fortune. When they had covered enough Ground to he far away from the elderly Relations and no one could point out the Houses in which they were born they began to Deliver. It was a sad Jolt to the Walking Vegetables back in the Stockade when they heard, on Qood Authority, that Ezra and Bill were slamming It over the Plate and batting above .400. They simply wagged the oesifled Domes and hoped the Boys were getting It Honestly. Ezra and Bill, up among the inflammatory Posters and the nervous Electric Signs, kept on playing Tag with the Sherman Act until they had it in Oodles and Bundles and Bales and Stacks. Finally, when they became so prosperous that they had to wear Shoes specially made, with Holes in the top, they began to be troubled with Tender Recollections of Humble Birthplace. Through the Haze of Intervening Tears they saw the Game of Two-Old- Cat in the Vacant Lot back of the M. E. Church and forgot all about sleeping In the refrigerated Attic and going down In the morning to thaw out the Wooden Pump. They yearned to elbow out from the Congested Traffic of the cold and heartless City and renew Sweet Associations. They wanted to wander once more down the Avenues of Rhubarb and clasp hands with Old Friends whose simple Hearts averaged about 14 Throbs to the Minute. It is the regulation Dream of every Financial Yeggman to go back to hiB Old Town wearing a Laurel Wreath and have the School Children throw Moss Roees in his Pathway. So Ezra sent on a Proposition. He wanted to build a Library at the corner of Fifth and Main, thereby making it easy for his old Neighbors to read the Six Best Sellers without plugging the Author's Game. He offered to give 20,000 bucks if the Citizens would raise 6,000 more and maintain the Thing. Ezra had not been in the Habit of reading anything except the Tape and he cared about as much for George Bernard Shaw as George Bernard Shaw cared for him. Nevertheless, he wanted to be remembered 60 Years hence as the Man who built the Library and not ae the Guy who dealt from the Bottom of the Deck, utilizing the Sleeve Device and the Bosom Hold-Out By the use of Anaesthetics and Forceps the 6,000 was secured. Then the Building was erected and the only Criticism made was that the Location was poor and the dod-blasted Concern looked like a Barn and it was arranged wrong inside and nobody didn't want no Library nohow. When Ezra came down to the Dedication to face an outraged and taxburdened People he was just as popular as Toneolitis or Sciatica ever dared to be. Bill came back also. He floated into Town one day and appeared in Jimiaon'g General Store and called for a Good Cigar. He told Mr. Jimison to take one and called up the Boys around the Stove and even those who were chewing were told to put 'em in their Pockets and smoke 'em after while. When the Word got out that Bill was Buying over at the Bee Hive representative Citizens came on the Jump from the Harness Shop and the Undertaking Parlors and the Blie Bowling Alley. Every Man that showed got a Lottie Lee with a Band around it and -when Bill left on the 8:40 a Mob followed him to the Train. Ever after that the Word was freely passed around that Bill was a Prince. MORAL—In scattering Seeds of Kindness do it by Hand and not by Machinery. The New Fable of the Unruffled Wife and the Callus Husband. One day a Married Woman who was entitled to a long pew of Service Stripes on her Sleeve sat In the Motor and watched the remainder of the Sketch try out his new trick Monoplane. He scooted away with the Buzzer working overtime and soon was cloud* hopping about a Mile overhead. When he began doing the Eagle v Swoops and the Corkscrew Dips, which so often serve as a Prelude to a good First Page Story with "a picture of the Remains being Borted out from the Debris, most of the Spectators gasped and felt their Toes curling inside nt their Shoes, but Wifey never batted an Eye. With only one little Strand of Wire or perchance a Steering Knuckle standing between her and a lot of Insurance Money she retained both her Aplomb and the Lorgnette. "How can you bear to watch it?" asked a Lady Friend, who was heaving perceptibly. "Listen," replied the Good Woman. "For many Snows I have been sitting on the Side Lines watching the Dear Boy take Desperate Chances. To begin with, he married into Our Family. Once, at Asbury Park, he acted as Judge at a Baby Show. Later he put a lot of Money into a Bank, the President of which wore Throat Whiskers and was opposed to Sunday Base Ball. He has played Golf on Public Links, hunted Deer during the Open Season in the Adlrondacks and essayed the Role of Claude Melnotte in Amateur Theatricals. Once he attended a Clam Wifey Never Batted an Eye. Bake and took everything that was Passed. At another time he made a Speech when the Alumni celebrated a Foot Ball Victory.

It appears that the incredulity which was expressed with regard to the great Brazilian river said to have been discovered by Mr. Roosevelt was a monopoly of the large majority who know very little of the subject. No phrase could better describe what the ex-president actually has done in regard to this river than his own, which he used more than once at the meeting of the Royal Geographic coclety, "I have put it on the map." That is precisely what he has done. If it be not precise to Bay that he has "discovered" the river, seeing that its head and tail were known already, it is exactly true that he has put it on the map, for this could not be done before the finding and the correct placing of the body of the great stream.

Murine hiye Kutucdy Co., Caicago, London—The right and left wings of the Germans fell back, while the center held firm before the fortified position of Verdun, according to dispatches received Sunday night, giving official statements from the Paris war office. Meanwhile the Belgians, it is reported, have pushed to the southeast from Antwerp, forcing the depleted German forces in Belgium before them and threatening the German line of communication -between France and Germany, through Belgium. The significance of .the Belgian movement becomes greater with the rumor, as yet unconfirmed, that a second British expeditionary force has been landed at Ostend and is moving southeast to join the Belgians in the effort to cut off the German communication through Belgium and block the retreat of the invader's right wing. The importance of this line of communication has grown more manifest with the pointing out by military experts here that it is the only one available to the Germans in extricating themselves from France. A dispatch from Bordeaux contained an official French statement which declared that the German line of retreat to the eastward of the Argonne forest had been cut off, owing to the rapid advance of the allies. Germans Are Rushed Westward. That Berlin realizes the gravity of the situation in France is indicated in reports that troops which were sent into Russian Poland and Galcia to help the Austrians, are being withdrawn and rushed westward to the aid of the hard-pressed Germans in France. . This withdrawal is in the face of overwhelming defeat to the Austrians, reported in official dispatches from Petrograd. Practically all along the Austro-Russian firing line the Austrians are said to be In full flight and utterly demoralized. If the French official reports are correst, all the German armies, except that facing Verdun and a few miles southwest, are retreating. General von Kluck's army, which a week ago was a few miles to the southeast of Paris has retired more than 60 miles to the northeast, while on the extreme right the army of the Bavarian crown prince, which was attacking the French eastern line from Nancy to Epinal, has fallen back to the frontiers of Lorraine, permitting the French to reoccupy Luneville and several other towns. General Joffre, the French commander- in-chief, pictures the retreat as hurried, if not disorderly, with the Germans abandoning prisoners, wounded and supplies. * The battle' of the Marne, which was decided in a week, is regarded by military critics as the most marvelous reversal of roles of two armies known. In their view it appears to have decided the first phase of the war and to have made impossible the plan which the German staff is supposed to have had of smashing the French by one comprehensible stroke, and then turning the bulk of the German forces eastward to confront the Russians. Belgians March on Brussels. The military experts, however, are still cautious. While recognizing the possibility that the German armies may yet rally and draw a strong defensive line, they recognize also the possibility of the almost complete evacuation of France and Belgium. Paris announces that the Germans have exacuated Amiens. The whereabouts of German reinforcements of 60,000 reported to be marching south on three roads in that neighborhood from Belgium are unknown. The Belgian army is credited with the determination to reoccupy Brussels and claims to have cut the railroad between Liege and Brussels, thus severing an important German line of communication, and to be pushing the scattered German forces, composed for the most part of reservists, towards the southeast Thoroughly Soured.

ID tbe latter half of tbe eighteenth century one of tbe members of a little scientific society in Liverpool told a brother scientist that be could read n newspaper by the light of a small can die at a distance of thirty feet Tho second scientist said the thing was im possible. To prove-his contention the first scientist coated the inside of a shallow wooden bos with sloping pieces of looking glass so as to form a concave lens, placed it behind a farthing candle and reudily deciphered the small print ut the "stipulated distance. The experiment was witnessed by a Liverpool dock master. He was a thinking man and saw great possibilities in this learned jest He straightway adapted the principle to lighthouse requirements, and forthwith the modern reflected light, with its miles of reflected range and untold life saving powers, sprang into being.

There ure many curious betrothal customs In Germany that are found in no place„ else in the world. As soon as a German girl Is betrothed she is addressed as "bride'* by her fiance. The betrothal is a more serious affair than in England, and is not so easily broken. The girl is called "bride" until the wedding, Yghen she assumes the title of "wife." Immediately upon the betrothal the lovers exchange rings, which, if the course of true love runs smooth, are to be worn ever afterward. Tbe woman wears her betrothal ling on the third finger of her left hand until she is married, and then it is transferred to the third finger of her right hand. The man continues to wear his ring just as the wife wore hers when she was a bride Men and Fools. A man can be as big a fool at thirty as he can be at twenty or, for that matter, at sixty, with this difference. that at twenty he doesn't know that be is a fool. He thinks that be is a god and enjoys the experience. At sixty be knows well enough what he is and thanks his stars that he has yet another chance before going down tu the grave. But at thirty-five he has neither the illusions of youth nor the consolations of age. He is young enough to feel foolish and old enough to know better.—"Curing Christopher." - i ' Japanese Idols.

Bordeaux—The minister of the interior, Louis J, Malvy, announced Sunday that the famous cathedral of Rheims had been destroyed and all the other historic and public buildings either laid in ruins or seriously damaged during the bombardment of Rheims by the German artillery. The structures which the minister said had been destroyed or ruined included, in addition to the cathedral, the twelfth century church of St. Jacques, the fifteenth century archbishop's palace, and the city hall, dating from the seventeenth century. M. Malvy said that official reports revealed that the cathedral was in flames, the burning having begun Saturday as a result of ceaseless bombardment. If the reported destruction of the cathedral of Rheims is true, it is the greatest loss from an historical and artistic sense of the present war. Begun on the site of an earlier church erected by Robert McCourcy in 1212, and continued at intervals down to the fifteenth century, it has been described as "the most perfect example in grandeur and grace of Gothic style in existence." Reports of Fight Differ. Reports differ as -to the progress of the great battle in northern Prance between the allied British and French armies and the Germans. Some indicate that there 1B extremely heavy fighting, while others tell of the great masses of troops lying in flooded trenches, many of them at the stage of exhauston. At some points, at least, fierce engagements have been fought, with the tide flowing first in one direction and then in the other. The allies have won a position here, and the Germans have gained one there. But all reports official and otherwise, agree that there is much fighting yet to be done before any material advantage can be claimed by either side. The British in the trenches say: "We are slowly beating them back." The French official statement declares that though furiously c6unter attacked by superior forces and obliged to yield some ground, this was regained almost immediately. Berlin officially announces that the Franco-British forces have been obliged to take the defensive in entrenched positions and that therefore the result of the German attacks are slow. Information On Sea Fighting. Interesting information has been given out by the British admiralty regarding British successes and misfortunes in various waters. The British merchant cruiser Carmania has sunk a German merchant cruiser, supposed to be either the Cap Trafalgar or the Berlin, off the cost of South America, but the German cruiser Kienlgsberg has completely disabled the British cruiser Pegasus while the latter was overhauling her machinery in Zunihar harbor, killing 26 men and wounding more than three times that number; and the German cruiser has sunk six British merchant steamers in the Bay of Bengal. There has been a review off the island of Halkr by the sultan of the Turkish fleet, including the former German cruisers Breslau and Goeben, after which the warships proceeded to Constantinople for coal Italy, according to reports from Rome, has now more than a half million men under arms.

FIGHT GOES ON FOR DAYS, WITH RESULTS IN DOUBT Tiaogram On.says mormiaf that It waa the walcktbeCer- Detalltd Reports 8how That the Slaughter Must Have Been Terrific —Really a Succession of Battles In Which Each Side Was Enabled to Gain a Temporary Advantage. (Special Correspondence.) The four days' battle along the line from Noyon to the France-German frontier on the east was continued all day Saturday. The fighting became more furious than ever. During the combat along the River Aisne the adversaries in many instances came to hand to hand clashes and the Bayonet was used extensively. As a result of the terrific fighting the Germans were forced to retire about seven miles. % The bloody scenes of the battlefield have no retarding effect on either side. The carnage was horrifying, but the troops appear to have become hardened and fought with great coolness. . Silence Masked Guns? The allies' aviators apparently discovered the placements of some big German guns, notwithstanding the cleverness with which they are hidden beneath an earthen covering strewn with the branches of trees. The allies' artillery opened a concentrated fire on a certain portion of the line and the heavy German artillery shortly after lapsed into silence at that spot, although it is not known whether they were made impotent or merely were effecting a change of position owing to their position having become untenable. Germans Move Back. It is impossible to learn from any one portion of the line what is occurring at other places, but an inclination to recede slightly seemed evident on the German side, although they offered the most obstinate resistance and fought us if made of iron. The allies at the same time doggedly pursued the small advantage they able tenacity and intrepidity, but were unable to break through the firm line presented by the allies' infantry. The fight Just before daybreak was the most violent of all. The Germans appeared to throw into the charge all that remained of their energy, but were rolled back with enormous losses. Many Teutons Sacrificed. Before retiring behind their big guns they sacrificed many of their number, displaying resolution which- approached desperation. A vigorous counter attack from the allies ensued, during which a small extent of groand was gained. Behind the fighting line along the Acy-pulscux road still lie many of the dead who fell In the fighting of September 5. Laborers engaged in the task of interment declared that although- they had buried great numbers over a thousand bodies still awaited removal from the battlefield. In General Battle. The real fighting started on the morning of the fourteenth, when the battle became general along the range of heights to the north of the Aisne. The fighting was sustained with deadly earnestness during all of the next day, the Germans desperately connatlcs wno knew nothing of the tear of death. But they were rolled back again, and to their enormous losses of the night was added another long roll of dead and wounded. It was as If this was their one chance of salvation, and all the desperation and all the resolution at their command were thrown into it. Hardly had they recovered from this final grand sortie when the Utiles followed with a vigorous counter attack in an effort to catch the Germans off their balance. In this the allies were partly successful, for they gained ground slightly. On the morning of the seventeenth fighting again was resumed with the desperation that rivaled that of the big night attack. At the end of the day it appeared that the Germans had been forced to retire, about seven miles. During the fighting, which lasted all day and Into the night, the Germans lost 600 prisoners.

The German version is set CHARGE OF THE KAISER'S INFANTRY. testing every foot of the way in a supreme endeavor to hold their positions until re-enforcements could arrive. On the night of the fifteenth they appeared to have been strengthened, and commenced their formidable movement against the French and British all along their front. A furious attack on the allies' extreme left, with the big guns of the rival artillerists lighting the line of the opposing fronts in fiery shilouette, was repulsed with great courage by the allies. Again and again the Germans returned to the attack with the tenacity that was the marvel of French troops, but each time they were repulsed.

Responding to Emperor Williams' protest against the France-British armies' alleged use of dumdum bulletB and to the Belgian commissioner's presentation of atrocity charges against the German troops. President Wilson made virtually identical replies. The keynoteB of his answer was: "It would be inconsistent with the neutral position of any nation, which, like this, has no part In the contest, to form or express a final judgment."

Germans Leaving Belgium. Except for two army corps with their supports of marines and old men, which the Belgian army is keeping busy around Antwerp, the Germans have almost entirely left the country. No Peace Proposals. Sir Cecil Spring-Rice, the British ambassador at Washington, received a cable message from Sir Edward Grey, the British minister for foreign affairs, saying that Great Britain had received no proposal for peace, direct* ly or Indirectly, from either Germany or Austria, and therefore was not in a position to consider terms of peace.

One hundred years ago the little American force. pretentiously designated as the Army of the North re* tired from Plattsburg to the south bank of the Saranac river, in readiness to meet the British army, which waa now almost within striking distance. General Macomb, the American commander, had about 3,500 men in. his army, buj pernaps less than 2,000 were fit for active duty. The British force numbered between 12,000 and 14,000 men, the majority of whom were veterans in the service. Notwithstanding the seeming impossibility of defense, General Macomb.maneuvered his.little army and gathered such re-enforcements by earnest appeal aa to enable him to anticipate the meeting with the enemy with the utmost confidence.

YEAR*. EXPERIENCE Another Change For The Meat Market A short time ago nearly every issue of this paper had something to Kay about the changing proprietors of the Piuckney hotel. J imes have changed, probably the war has affected the situation, anyway we are now interested in the meat-market game. It becomes u puzzle to note not only the change in the location of the market but the shifting back and forth of the proprietors. First, L. E. Powell of Ann Arbor opened a meat market in the Murphy building and Pinckney for a short period possessed two butcher shops, Dave Smith being already on the field. Theu Powell pur-| chased Smith's business and moved into Smith's old stand. This transaction seemed to be progressing satisfactorily when last week a deal was closed by which Dave Smith again assumed control of the market in his own building and Powell will return with his family to Ann Arbor. Mr. and Mrs. Powell have made many friends while here who will be sorry to have them leave Pinckney. Mr. Smith extends a hearty welcome to all his former customers.

Citizens of Michigan are nrged to participate in the observance of this day. Importance and value may be given the day if the proper authorities will call public meetings at which the subject of fire prevention will be considered or will organize clean-up rallies at which time investigations will be made as to the possible existence of fire risks. The schools may aid by devoting a portion of the day to the study of the subject of how fires can be prevented. Each individual in every community in the state can do much to reduce the fii£ hazards by making it a point on this day to look into conditions on his own premises and applying a xemedy against possible fires where such a remedy is needed.

L^et year we were in the northern part of the fctate> thia year we are in the western part, 350 miles west of our South Dakota home. Eiverton is a new town, but eight years old, having a population of about 900. Situated in a beautiful valley, all under irrigation from the Wind River, which swings around the town, less than a mile away, th9 town is already nearly bidden by trees. Through the gutters of the street the water of the irrigation system flows, water from the mountains; as clear and pure as water can he, so that every yard and garden may enjoy the benefit. Riverton is a mite high, and I have never before found such ideal weather, at this time of the year, as we are enjoying here. It has been an interesting sight to us, while enjoying these late* summer days, with vegetation all about us as green as in the month of May, to look up at the lofty range of the Rocky Mountains to the south and west, with its snow covered peaks and valleys. We believe we shall like Riverton the best oi any place we have found. We made final proof on our homestead last month, so that now we have, to show for our* work in the pent four and a half yean, 160 acres of fine land, fenced and cross fenced, with considerable of it under cultivation and with good buildings.

Their household pod* sold, the $100 auction money, all (they have left, will place Abe in the Old [Mans home, or Angy In the Old Ladies' nome. Both are self-sacriflctng but Abe decides: "My dear this is the fust time i ye had a chance to take the wust of it." iTfie old couple bid good-by to the little mouse.

She tells p e other old ladies, and Blossy, who has paid a double fee for the only double bed- JJiamber. voices the unanimous verdict tnat Abe must be taken in with his wife. Abe awakens next morning to find that ha is "Old Lady No. SI." The old ladies Jftve hlrn such a warm welcome that he A*,01.. t 0 f e e l a t ^ome at once.

It "plagued" the others, however, to jjsee that none of them could get ahead jof Blossy in their noble endeavors to make Abraham feel himself a light and welcome burden. She it was who discovered that Abe's contentment could ot be absolute without griddlecakes 'or breakfast three hundred and slxtyve tinaes a year; she it was who first baked him little saucer cakes and pies because he was partial to edges; and Blossy it was who made out a list of "Don'ts" for the sisters to follow in Itheir treatment of this grown-up jyoung-old boy. 1 "Don't scold him when he leaves the doors open. Don't tell htm to wipe Shis feet. Don't ever mention gold minee or shiftless husbands," etc., etc. AH these triumphs of Blossy's intuition served naturally to spur the •others on to do even more for Brother iAbe than they had already done, until Jthe old man began to worry for fear Jthat he should "git sp'llt." When he lay down for his afternoon nap and jthe house was dull and quiet without )bis waking presence, the ladles would |gather In groups outside his door as if in a king'e antechamber, waiting for him to awaken, saying to one another iever and again, "Sh, sh!" He processed to scoff at the attentions he received, would grunt and growl ."Humbug!" yet nevertheless he [thrived In this latter-day sunlight. His bid bones took on' flesh. His aged kindly face, all seamed with care as It had been, filled ont, the wrinkles (turning Into twinkles. Abraham had wn young again. With the return ills youth came the spirit of youth the Old Ladles' home. Verily, very, as Blossy had avowed from the it, they had been In sore need of e masculine presence. The ancient .t and hat, which had hung in the hall so long, had perhaps served its purpose In keeping the burglars away, but this lifeless substitute had not prevented the crabbed gnomes of loneliness and discontent from stealing in. Spinster, wife and widow, they had every one been warped by the testy jest-so-nees of the old maid. Now, Instead of fretful discussions of health and food, recriminations and wrangling, there came to be laughter and good-humored chatter all the day long, each sister striving with all her strength to preserve the new-found [harmony of the home. There were musical evenings, when Miss Abigail opened the melodeon and played "Old Hundred," and Abraham was encouraged to pick out with one stiff foretaper "My Grandfathers Clock." payout tones" were suns in chorus; then, In. answer to Abe's appeal something livelier, there came 'tried ditties and old, old love {songs. And at last,'one night, after leaving the Instrument silent, mute in |the corner or the parlor for many {rears, Aunt .Nancy Smith dragged out fear harp, and, seating herself, reached out her knotted, trembling hands and (brought forth what seemed the Tory •die; so faint and faltering it was, of ^Douglas, Douglas, Tender and True." There was a long silence after she tied finished, her head bowed on her ibest, her bands dropped to her sides. Abraham spoke first, clearing his (:-' ghroat before be could make the words I t t t t oould git a husband fer ;**<*? one of yer," said be. - ad one was angry, and no one Jtaghed; lor they all knew that be & ^rl&ljm:**.- •*&*«> express-the mee- V- ^ ?

The picture betrayed that Captain Darby wore a wig designed for a large* man, and that the visage beneath was gnarled and weather-beaten, marked with the signs of a stubborn and unreasonable will. Even now the aged belle could bear him saying: "Here I be, come eround ter pop ag'in. Ready ter hitch?" Samuel's Inelegant English had always been a source of distress to Blossy; yet still Bhe stared long at the picture. Six months had passed since his last visit; tomorrow would be the date of his winter advent. Should she give the old unvarying answer to his tireless formula? She glanced around the tiny room. Ashamed though she was to admit it Abraham discovered he? (here, too engrossed in the perusal of one of the old letters to have heeded his creaking steps upon the stairs.

I Kneeling Before a Time-Worn Trunk. even to herself, she missed that ample and cozy chamber which she bad so freely surrendered to Abraham and his wife. She missed it, as she felt they must crave their very own fireside; and the thought that they missed the old homestead made her yearn for the home that she might have had— the home that she still might have. Again she brought her eyes back to the portrait; and now she saw, not the characteristics which had always made it seem Impossible for her and Samuel to jog tegether down life's road, but the great truth that the face was honest and wholesome while the eyes looked back into hers with the promise of an unswerving care and affection. The neit morning found Blossy kneeling before a plump little leatherbound, time-worn trunk which she kept under the eaves of the kitchen chamber. The trunk was packed hard with bundles of old \etters. Some her younger .fingers had tied with violet ribbon; tome they had bound with pink; others she had fastened together with white silk cord, and there were more and more bundles, both slim and stout, which Blossy had distinguished by some special hue of ribbon in the Ions *go, each tint marking adlfferent suitor's missives. To her still sentimental eye the colors remained unfaded, and each weald bring to her mind instantly the picture of the writer as he had been in the golden days. But save to Blossy's eye alone there were* no longer any rainbow tints in the little old trunk; for every ribbon and every oord had faded Into that musty* yellow brown which is dyed by the passing ot many edged, crackly billet-doux with a start, and dropped the envelope to the floor. For the moment, so deep in reminiscence was she, she thought Captain Darby himself had surprised her; then, recognizing Abe and recalling that Samuel's winter visits were invariably paid in the afternoon, she broke into a shamefaced laugh. "Oh, is that you, Brother Abe? Don* tell the others what you found me doing. These," with a wave of her delicate, blue-veined hands over the trunk and Its contents, "are all old love letters of mine. Do you think I'm a silly old goose to keep them cluttering around so long?" "Wa'al"—Abe with an equally deprecatory gesture indicated Angy's horsehair trunk in the far corner of the loft—"yew ain't no more foollsher, I guess, over yer old trash 'n me an' Angy be a-keepln' that air minln' stock of mine. One lot is wuth 'bout as much as t'other." Recovering the envelope that she had dropped, he equinted at the superscription. "Not meanln' ter be inquisitive or personal. Sister Blossy," a teasing twinkle appearing in his eye, "but this looks dretful familiarity, this here handwrltin' does. When I run the beach—yew'vs* heard me tell of the time I was on the life-savin* crew over ter Bleak Hill fer a spell—my cap'n he had a fist jest like that. Useter make out the spickest, spanneet reports. Lemme see," the twinkle deepening, "didn't the gals say yew was a 'spectln' somebody terday? Law, I ain't saw Cap'n Sam'l fer ten year or more. I guess on these here poppin' trips o' hls'n he hain't wastin' time on no men-folks. But, Blossy, yew better give me a chance ter talk to him this arternoon, an' mebbe I'll speak a good word fer yer." Blossy, not alwayB keen to eee a joke, and with htr vanity now in the ascendent, felt the color rise into her withered cheek. "Oh, you needn't take the trouble to speak a good word for me. Any man who could ever write a letter like this doesn't need to be coaxed. Just listen: The man you take for a mate Is the luckiest dog In the Whole round world. I'd rather be him than king of all the countries on earth. I'd rather be him than strike a gold mine reaching from here to China. I'd rather be him than master of the finest vessel that ever sailed blue water. That's what I would. Why, the man who couldn't be happy with you would spill tears all over heaven. Blossy's cheek was still flushed, but no longer with pique. Her voice quavered and broke; and finally there fell upon the faded page of the letter two sparkling tears. Abraham shuffled uncomfortably from one foot to the other; then, muttering something about the "pesky apple hook/' went scuffing across the floor In the direction of the chimney. Blossy, however, called him back. "I was crying, Brother Abe, because the man 1 did take for a mate once was not happy, and—and neither was I. I was utterly wretched; so that I've always felt I never cared to marry again. And—Samuel's wig is always slipping down over one eye, and I simply cannot endure that trick he has of carrying his head to one side, as If he had a left-handed spell of the mumps. It nearly drives me frantic. "Brother Abe, now tell me honestly: do you think he would make a good husbandr Abe cleared his throat Blossy was In earnest Blossy could not be laughed at She was his friend, and' Angy's friend; and she had come to him as to a brother for advice. He, too, had known Samuel as man to man, which was more than any of the sisters could say. Stroking his beard thoughtfully, therefore, he seated himself upon a. convenient wooden cheat, while Blossy slipped her old love letter in and out of the envelope, with that essentially feminine manner of weighing and considering. "Naow," began Abe at length, "this is somep'n that requires keerful debatin'. Fust off, haowsomever, yew must remember that wigs an' ways never made a man yit Ei I riccoiec' Sam'l, he-walT pooty good es men go. I should say he wouldn't be any more of a risk tew yew than I was tew Angy; mebbe less. He's got quite a leetle laid by, I understand, an' a tidy story-an'-a-half house, an' front stoop, an', by golly, can't he cook! He's a splendid housekeeper." "Housewifery," ^ remarked Blossy sagely, as she began to gather her missives together, "is an accomplishment to be scorned in a young husband, but not in an old one. They say there hasn't been a woman inside Samuel's house since he built it, but it's as clean ag soap and eand can make it" "I bet yer," agreed Abe. "Hain't never been no fly inside It, neither, 1 warrant yer. Fly can't light arter Sam'l's cleanln' up nohaow; he's got ter skate." "He says he built that little house for me," said the old lady, as Bhe closed down the lid of the trunk. There was a wistful note in Blossy's voice, which made Abraham declare with a burst of sympathy: " 'Tain't no disgrace ter git married at no time of life. Sam'l's a good pervider; why don't yew snap him up terday? We'll miss yew a lot; but—" "Here's the apple picker right over your head," interrupted Blossy tartly, and Abe felt himself peremptorily dismissed. * Scarcely had he left the attic, however than she, too, hastened down the steep, narrow stairs. She spent the remaining hours before train time In donning her beautiful lace gown, and in making the woman within it as young and ravishing as possible. And lovely, Indeed, Bloesy looked this day, with a natural flush of excitement on her cheek, a new sparkle in her bright, dark eyes, and with her white hair arranged in a fashion which might have excited a young girl's envy. The hour for the train came and went and, lo! for the first time in the history of twenty years Captain Darby did not appear. Blossy pretended to be relieved, protesting that she was delighted to find! that she would now have an extra! hour In which to ponder the question.] But the second train came and went, and still no Captain Darby. All the afternoon long Blossy wore! her lace gown, thinking although there were no more trains from the east* ward that day, that Samuel would still find his way to her. He might drive, as he usually did In June, or he might even walk from his home at Twin Coves, she said. (TO BE CONTINUED.) UNIFORM MEANT FOR SERVICE Oarb of the Bofctters of "Holy Russia" Is Said to Be the Simplest |n European Armies. It is said that the uniform of the Russian soldier is the simplest field uniform in Europe. In winter a sheepskin coat goes on beneath the gray one. In summer, or during campaigns in-hot climates, the Russians, like the Japanese, fight In white dress. The Russian campaigner marches somewhat heavily laden. He has-his kit-bag with clothing slung over one shoulder, his haversack with two days' rations of bread and salt slung over the other, bis greatcoat strapped under one arm. Including bis water bottle,, arms and ammunition, a section of tent and the uniform be wears, he carries something over 6t pounds. The advantage which offsets the burden is that at a pinch, the Rususian soldier la practically independent of a bag* gage train. He can transport his modest necessities upon his own back. The Russian cavalryman rides so laden with oornsaeks art blankets and greatcoats and other things that he has been compared tethe maehsnonmbared White Knight hi "Altoe in Woe-1 derlaad.* Altogether?

It is used by physicians with results most gratifying. The extended use of Castoria is unquestionably the result of three facts: /Vw^-The indisputable evidence that it is harmlesss **Qon<h^That it not only allays*stomach pains and quiets the nerves, but as^milates the food: nii+-l\ is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil. It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotio and does not stupefy. It is unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman's Drops, Godfrey's Cordial, etc This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, how* ever, is to expose danger and record the means of advancing health. The day for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To our knowledge, Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health, by regulating lie system—not by stupefying it—and our readers are entitled to the information.—Sail's Journal of Health.

B. Halttead Scott, of Chicago, Ills., says: "I have prescribed your Castoria often for infants during my practice, and find it very satisfactory." Dr. William Belmont, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: "Your Castoria stands first In its class. In my thirty years of practice I can say I never have found anything that so filled the place." Dr. J. H. Taft, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "I have used your Castoria and found it an excellent remedy in my household and private practice for many years. The formula is excellent." Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich., says: "I prescribe your Castoria extensively, as I have never found anything to equal it for children's troubles. I am aware that there are imitations in the field, but I always see that my patients get Fletcher's." Dr.Win. J McCrann, of Omaha, Neb., says: "As the father of thirteen children I certainly know something about your great medicine, and aside from my own family experience 1 have in my years of practice found Castoria a popular and efficient remedy in almost every home." Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: "The name that your Castoria has made for Itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorsement of the medical profession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse it and believe it an excellent remedy." Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., says: "Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary preparations, but in the case of Castoria my experience, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an exception. I prescribe your Castoria in my practice because I have found It to be a thoroughly reliable remedy for children's complaints. Any physician who has raised a family, as I have, will join me in heartiest recommendation of Castoria."

The wireless outfit on the steamship Imperator comprises three separate stations—one of 15 kilowatts, for long distance work; one of three kilowatts, mainly for communications with vessels at moderate distances, and an emergency station, worked by a powerful storage battery. The main station can exchange signals directly with the large land stations of America or Europe during the whole of the transatlantic voyage, so that the delays involved by relaying messages from ship to ship are avoided. In midocean the ship is in communication with both the German station at Norddeich and the American station at Sayville.

Church At the meeting held by the members of the M- E. church Tuesday evening it was voted by the congregation to have the official board present the proposition to the quarterly conference regarding ihe union of the two protestant churches. It seems that any business regarding the Methodist church cau only be transacted through one of tae church boards or the quarterly conference.

The futurist will find It hard to beat the masculine costumes of the later Plantagenet reigns, either in flare of color or in practical awkwardness. There were the peaked shoes, chained to the knees, and the enormous bagpipe shaped sleeves, reaching even to the feet. One practical use was found for these, however. They were called the devil's receptacles, from their convenience to the light fingered. A writer of the time describes the commoners as "besotted in excess of apparel. Some In wide surcoats reaching to their loins, some in a garment reaching to their heels, closed before and sticking out at the sides, so that at the back they make men seem like women." The particolored suits of the period were sprinkled freely with birds, baboons, squirrels, trees and mottoes.—London Spectator. Traps the Robbers. In a Copenhagen bank is an ingenious contrivance for capturing robbers that was devised by one of the clerks. An electric contact is placed behind the bank counter, and if the clerks tread on it the main door from the street to the entrance hall is closed and locked. If the clerks, again tread upon the contact the door between the entrance hall and the office is locked. Thus if the robbers should arrive and summon the clerks to hold up their hands the clerks obey, tread upon the contact and the main door Is locked. The robbers are allowed to take the money, but when they desire to leave they find that the main door is shut and locked, and when they try to return they find the second door also locked, and they are trapped until the police arrive.

I promised It her for this week, provided that I could get a certain new part in time from the makers.

Pinckney, Livingston-County, Michigan, Thursday, October 1, 1914 No. 40 ONLY FEW DAYS LEFT OF CONTEST $&&': w- • * * : ' t<; <,. mt •A?-- -«•• s* •• Hustlera Por Piano Must Put In Best W o r k to t h e End.— Pinal Count W i l l Be Held Friday, October 2 3 r d . It is TJme to Get Busy. Now listen! There is absolutely QO truth in the statement that this is the closed season for hunting subscriptions to the Dispatch. The law, (made by the Dispatch,) permits live, active, aggressive contestants to hunt suhscriptious until the close of the contest and there is a bounty on them too. For every new subscription brought in, a bounty of 600 votes in the Dispatch Popular Voting Contest is paid. Some happy young lady is going to march away from the Dispatch office in just a short time wearing the smile that won't •come cff, because that young lady will have won the grand Obermeyer & Sons piano,. There are only a few more days left of this .contest That means that the race still belongs to anybody who has just a little initiative. The fact of the matter is that no one yet has such a start that it could not be easily overcome in a few days of consistent work. This is certainly the most glorious opportunity that the young ladies of this community have ever had. Every contestant now thoroughly understands the rules and methods of securing »subscriptions and the majority of them have settled down in earnest zealouB work that eliminates idle -dreaming and means working for some definite point. The aimless haphazard soliciting has been dropped and a systematic campaign for votes is now in progress. There is no question but what everyone in and around Pinckney has been solicited, or at least has heard about this contest. The better field for operation now lies in the country, as practically every one in town is now a subscriber to the paper—or never will be. The contest department wants to urge on evDry contestant the necessity for making the next three weeks count for all they are worth. The time is growing short and it is only the real hastier who will have much of a show after that time. That is why it will pay to get in the game with all the energy you can command from this f: time until the close. Be sure and have your friends trade with the following merchants who give a 25 vote coupon with -each dollar dish purchase. Have them ask for these coupons and «ave them for you. W, W.

PARIS A8SERTS T H A T WESTERN WING OF T H E GERMANS HAS BEEN FORCED BACK. Berlin Confident That "Siege Guns Will Speedily Compel Surrender of Verdun—Freeh British Troops Take the Place of Exhausted Men on the Firing Line. At the Battle-Front, Sept. 27 (via Paris).—French and British troops, intermingled Turcos and Moors, not only held their own, but caused the strongly re-enforced German western wing to reel backward near St. Quentin and imperiled the German line of communication toward the frontier of Belgium. The German center has been weakened by the rush of troops from that position to meet the threatening movement of the allies and two strong forces were engaged at close quarters between St. Quentin and Tergnier. The following official statement was issued by the official press bureau in Paris: "On our left wing, in the region to the northwest of Noyon, our first lines, having come into collision with superior forces of the enemy, were obliged to yield a little ground. Reenforced by fresh troops, these detachments have vigorously resumed the offensive. The conflict in this region Is taking on a character of especial violence. "At the center there is nothing new. "On our right wing, before the attacks of our troops coming out from Nancy and Toul, the enemy has begun to give way in the southern part of the Woevre district, and is falling back towards Le Rupt-de-Mad. The action continues on the heights of the Meuse. The German forces have been able to penetrate to the vicinity of St. Mihiel, but they were not able to cross the Meuse." Fresh British troops have been landed in France and are being rushed to the firing line to support the exhausted Boldiers who have been under fire continuously for more than a month. The thirteenth day of this special conflict found the French'troops still pressing vigorously against the army of General von Kluck in their efforts to encircle the German right and crush it or force it back. To Shell Verdun With Huge Guns. Berlin, Sept. 27 (via wireless via London).—An official statement given out says: "The siege guns have been taken from Metz to bombard Verdun. The French are striving to prevent the arrival of these guns, but they are steadily approaching nearer. The reduction of Verdun cannot be averted when they reach a position where they can be operated with full effect. Our smaller guns continue their bombardment of the Verdun-Toul line with good effect. "The field engagements in France during the 24 hours ended at midnight have been minor affairs without any important developments. We hold our positions, there being no appreciable change in the lines. "The situation in Belgium and the eastern war theater is unchanged." Strike at General von Kluck. Paris, Sept. 26.—-The bloodiest fighting of the great battle of the Aisne is going on along the German right wing where the British and French are struggling furiously to surround and cut off the army of General von Kluck. The .French have swung round a gigantic circle and are now delivering a series of fierce""attacks upon the soldiers of General von Boehn who are ^defending the Mons route of German communications along a battle front through Combrai, Bouchain, Denain and St. Amand. An official statement announces that the French left wing is making steady progress and that Peronne has been occupied by the French. In an attempt to drive off the French troops who are threatening his line of communication General von Kluck is making a sharp attack upon the French forces at Peronne. Peronne is 17 miles northwest of St. Quentin and more than-70 miles northnortheast of Paris. In its turning movement, therefore, the left wing has advanced about 75 miles since it was driven across the Marne by the swift advance of the German right wing and there forced the Germans to turn to withdraw. The Germans are continuing their terrific attacks against the allies' center, in the vicinity of Reims, in an attempt to pierce it, but the French and the British, who were rushed to that point, are holding valiantly. A general of General von Kluck's staff, who was captured in the fighting around Amiens, has been brought to Paris, together with a number of other prisoners. Allies Make Advance. London, Sept. 25.—The great battle between the allies and the Germans continued today without decisive advantage to either side, and military experts here predicted that it may be several more days before the result is made definite. The official announcement made in Paris said that the allies had advanced on the western wing and had repulsed German attacks on the eastern wing. Messages which came in a roundabout way from Berlin asserted that the offensive Bpirit of the allies is weakening, tfnrt the center is retreating, and that the fortress of Verdun is being successfully bombarded. Germans Occupy Cracow. London, Sept. 27.—"That Cracow has been occupied by German troops, that the town has been put under a German military commandant and that the Austrian civil administration has been displaced Is the gist of the latest ad- HELIOGRAPHER OF THE CROWN PRINCE vices received here," says the Petrograd correspondent of the Morning Post. "All the original administration of the town and all civil officials of the Austrian government have left and the residents are fleeing in panic. "The leaders c* the Polish secret committee, which has been in charge of all the Polish volunteer detachments fighting on the Austrian side, also toave left Cracow. The Germans have thrown three army corps into the Cracow district, according to this information, and are bringing more troops in preparation for the expected Russian attack. "Word has been received here that Germany has stopped all traffic on the railways between Berlin and the Geriufp.

AVIATORS CLOSE TO ENGLAND Dropping of Bomb at Boulogne Causes Fear in London—General Summary of War News. German aviators, flying within sight of England, continued their attack on French coast cities and added to the apprehension felt at London that English cities soon may become the targets of their bombs. The attack was made on Boulogne, just across from England at about the ""narrowest part of the channel. About noon Friday a German aeroplane flew over the city and dropped a bomb into a shipbuilding yard. Little property damage was done and no one was injured. New German Loss*8hown. Telegraphing from Amsterdam, the correspondent of the Reuter Telegram company at London says the thirtyfirst German casualty list, carrying a total of about one thousand men killed, wounded and missing, has been given out. It includes the names of twenty-three officers of one regiment who were killed in five days' fighting. British Capture Dutch Liner. The German liner Amsteldijk has been captured by a British cruiser and taken to Queenstown. Ruse Sink Three German Ships. According to a message from Paris to the Central News of London the Russian cruiser Rayan has sunk a German cruiser and two torpedo boats in the Baltic sea. Coming immediately after the loss to the British fleet in the North sea this report of Russian success in the Baltic was joyfully received here. One Shot Fired at Cathedral. The Marconi company of London has received the following wireless from Berlin: "The main army headquarters reports that one mortar shot only was fired by the Germans at the Reims cathedral because it was otherwise impossible to drive away the enemy's .observation post mounted on the structure." Brave Deed of Highlander. A London. Daily Mail dispatch from the battle, front in France says that during the fighting at Soissons one Highlander carried a Maxim x gun whose crew had been killed across a bridge and all alone opened fire on the enemy, who broke and fled before the hail of bullets. The Highlander fell dead from thirty wounds. Belgium Rejects German Peace Offer. The Belgian foreign office says Germany baa approached Belgium with another offer of peace terms, but that King Albert has definitely refused to consider them.

Fort Wayne, Indiana. Sept. 29.—Edwin Denby of Detroit, Albert E. Sleeper of Bad Axe, Henry E. Morton of Muskegon, Henry C. Loveridge of Coldwater and Burt* S. Stratton of Lansing were today elected directors of The Lincoln National Life Insurance Co. of this city, which has over twenty million dollars of life insurance in force. Mr. Denby served three terms in Congress. He i« an attorney, a member of the well-known law firm of Chamberlain, May, Denby and Webster. He is also a Director of the Denby Motor Truck Co. of Detroit, a Director of the National Bank of Commerce and Treasurer of the Hupp Motor Car Co. Mr. Sleeper was formerly Treasurer of State. He is a banker and controls about a dozen banks in the Thumb District. He is also a director in the Merchants National Bank of Detroit. Mr. Morton is President of the Morton Manufacturing Co., manufacturers of large machinery, and President of the State Savings Bank at Muskegon Heights. ' Mr. Loveridge is one of the prominent attorneys of Southern Michigan and a ban*'director. Mr. Stratton is one of the leading life insurance men of the State and is General Agent at Lansing of the Lincoln Life. AH these gentlemen were formerly stockholders in the Michigan State Life Insurance Co. of Detroit, which was consolidated this last summer with the Lincoln Life. *toth companies were splendid life insurance organizations and the consolidation, which was made under the supervision and approval of the Insurance Commissioners of both Michigan and Indiana, has made the Lincoln Life one of the greatest companies in the middle West. It is interesting to read the comments of the leading insurance Journals of the country upon the success of the Lincoln Life: "The Lincoln National is one of the companies that has elicited the admiration of the insurance fraternity, owing ti the high character of its management. It has kept aloof from all schemes and pitfalls, desiring to develop along natural lines. Its team work at the home office and in the field has often been commented on, and is responsible for much of the results it has been able to achieve. UB directors comprise men of high standing and integrity, who are interested in the work of the company. Personnel of the Officers. "Arthur F. Hall, vice-president and general manager, is a man of keen ability, splendid character and extended experience. Franklin B. Mead, secretary and actuary of the Lincoln National, is one of the foremost actuaries in the country, and has done much original work in his line. "Walter T. Shepard, third vice-president and agency manager, Is one of the capable field generals of the West. He is in close touch with the agents, and he enjoys their respect. "The officers of the Lincoln National have been leaders in all movements looking toward reforms in life insurance. Their views on the responsibilities of life company officers have impressed policyholders with the fact that their interests are in safe hands. "The Lincoln National has been consistently progressive. It is one of the choice western companies that is built on bed rock and every piece of material in it is sound."—Western Underwriter, Chicago, May 14, 1914. "Among the companies of its-home state, the Lincoln National Life last year led in net gain in insurance, and of the fifty-one life companies now in business out of the sixty organized throughout the country during 1905, 1906 and 1907, the Lincoln National stood second in net increase in insurance in force during 1913. The company is truly a conspicuous success, and this is the more to its credit as it came into being at a time when the life insurance business was literally 'all she* to pieces.' "Offfnlied under the compulsory legal reserve law of Indiana, it more than complies therewith, its deposit with the Auditor of State always exceeding by a comfortable margin its policyholders' reserve liability. Its management la competent and efficient and deserving oLabsolute confidence.

Destined to Be a Giant "They have all been leaders in alt reform movements in life insurance and they are men whose first ceaceem Is the interests of policyholders. Wnder their management and with itsadded strength, the Lincoln National is destined to be one of the giante ef the West."—Indicator, Detroit, May 14, 1914. The addition of these five big men of Michigan to the already strong board of directors will doubly assure the 7,000 Michigan policyholders ef the company that their interests will be carefuly looked after. The financial statement ef this splendid company, with over twenty million dollars of insurance in force, will be found elsewhere in this issue. —Adv. An Immense Help.

Miss Farmer is a daughter of representative Farmer of this district, Mr. Dancer ia a son of W. J. Dancer of Stookbridge and is well and favorably known in this section. His many friends extend hearty congratulations. Boys, when you speak of your father don't call him the 'old man.' Of course you are older now than when you were taught to call him "father." You are much smarter than you were then, you are much more manly looking, your, clothes fits you better, your hat has a modern shape and your hair is combed differently, in snort, you are 'flyer* than you were then. Your father has a last year's coat, a two-year old hat and a vest of still older pattern. He can't write such an elegant note as yon can and all that, but don't call him "old man." Call him father. For years he has been hustling aronnd to get things together, he has been held to the thorny path of uphill industry, and the brightest half of his life has gone from him forever. H e loves yon though he goes along without saying much about it, therefore be not so ungrateful—Ex. Edward VanHorn was a Howell visitor Monday. E. E. Hoyt and wife spent Tuesday in Jackson. Mrs. M. Monks spent one day last week in Howell. Esther Barton spent a few days the past week in Detroit. Every visitor to the Milford fair reports it as a "hummer." Mrs. John Jeffreys is spending the week with relatives in Detroit. O. J. Sawyer of Conway is visiting at the home of E. W. Kennedy. Plan to do your fall clothing trading at Dancer's. Train connections are very best. adv. Wm. Murphy attended the democratic state convention at Detroit Wednesday as one of the delegates from this section.

Mr. and Mrs. Emil Lambertson of Amy, Mich., are the proud s of a 10 lb. baby girl born ursJay, September 24. Mrs. ambertson was formerly Orpha ndee of this place. Isn't it embarrassing to be advertising some other fellow's home every time you tell where you live? Don't say, "I live about two miles from, well say, Claremont or Sprisg Grove." Say "I live at Forest Lawn or Maple Nook." After you have decided on the name come to the Dispatch office and get some neat stationery printed. Our job department is ready to turn out some of the niftiest letterheads you ever saw for our farmer friends. Rev. A. € \ Camburn will fill the pulpit for the coming year in the Pinckney M. E, church. Rev. J, W. Mitchell was transfered from the Ann Arbor district to the Poit Huron district and will take up bis charge at Imlay City. During their fctay here both Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell have made many friends who will be sorry to have them leave Pinckney. The hand of welcome ia extended to the new minister. A farmer tells us that he has practically rid his farm of gophers by the use of gasoline. He carries a bottle and a bunch of cotton and when he sees a gopher run into a hole he pours some gasoline upon a wad of cotton and places it at the month of the hole and covers the opening with dirt. The gas fumes are heavier than the air and it will go to the bottom of the hole In an attempt to get air, the gopher comes to the top of the hole and the gas does the rest. Remove cotton in about half an hour and Mr. Gogher will ba dead. The plan will apply to many other burrowing animals. Eighteen bads of "boosters" for the Fowlerville F a i r passed through this village Tuesday afternoon. They circled twice around the public square tooting horns aud creating all sorts of excitement among onr townspeople. If the enthusiasm they put forth is a forerunner of the fair proper, which it undoubtedly is, every man, women and child should be there. Two excellent selections were rendered by the Fowlerville band which were greatly appreciated by the crowd. Fowlerville is a bustling business town and a mighty good time is always granted attendants at their annual fair.

PINCKNEY DISPATCH RUM of a Noble 8ovC William Carstalrs was William IIX.'i chief counselor in ecclesiastical matters. What a noble man this sturdy Scot was! An Episcopalian curate who had been ousted from his parish and was a thorough irreconcilable called upon him one day by appointment Be was then principal of Edinburgh university. He found Carstalrs in a rage. His tailor had sent in a misfitting suit. He threw the clothes about the room and then, looking at bis visitor, thought that they would fit him. Would he not take them as a sort of atonement for the 111 temper which be had shown? The next day the visitor came back to restore a ten pound note which be bad found In the coat pocket "Ho," said the principal.

While building the Panama canal Colonel Goethals knew exactly what he wanted done and would brook uo arguments. One morning a rather fldgety subordinate came into the colonel's office. 1 got your letter, colonel," he began, "and I came to"— He got no farther, for the colonel, with uplifted eyebrows, cat in: "Letter? Letter? There mast be some mistake. 1 have written you no letter." "Oh, yes, colonel," repeated the man. "I've got It here. It's about the work down at Mlraflores. Now, you see"— Again the colonel cat in: "Oh, l see! But yoa misled me. Too spoke of. my letter You meant, ot coarse, my orders!" The colonel's blue eyes stared coldly at the argumentative man, who, suddenly feeling that the conversation was at an end, "faded away." Two Views of the 8e1f Made Man. A pathologist of standing inveighs against the "self made man" in terms that will be surprising to many. "The self made man," he says, "la often in the process of degeneration, and the first evidence of degeneracy in a family is the selfishness and meanness or the cunning, avarice and moral guile by which the self made man succeeds in amassing a fortune for his still more degenerate children to spend In gratifying their selfish desires." There is another side to the matter, and Thoreau saw it when he said that the man who had acquired wealth would Insist on having bis sons educated, and thus he would become the real founder of a family.—Springfield Republican. Windsor Castle Kitchens. The kitchens at Windsor castle are perfect in all their arrangements. The chief kitchen is n fine lofty room lined with white tiles, it contains a marvelous collection of copper saucepans that vary in size from the dimensions of a tab down to that of a tiny breakfast cup. Another feature is the bags steel table used for serviug. It Is brtl, llantly polished and has hollow legs through which steam passes upward, heating the whole table. Another apartment is called the "green room." and is set apart for fruit used at dessert, and there is also a room assigned to the "table deckers/* whose sole doty it is to attend to the floral decorations of the royal dinner table-London Express. Where) Dr. Johnson Worked* Dr. Johnson's house tn Oougb square, London, is a noble old piece of Queen Anne architecture, and in stripping the walls of their surfeit of paper and canvag and stuff the restorer! came across several quaint old copboards, and these have all been pre* served with their original handles and mountings and add enormously to the domestic verisimilitude of the place. At the top may be seen, the spacious \ garret, where the doctor kept his six clerks slaving away at the dictionary which* first brought him fame; and alongside the house and the caretaker's lodge is.the tiny garden which Carlyle in his essay on Johnson describes as rather larger than a bed- | quilt Saint Simon's Poverty. St, Simon, the celebrated French author who wrote "The Reorganization of European Society," was twice driven by want to attempt bis own life, and, although he died a natural death in the end, it was among the most lam , eatable surroundings. "For fifteen days," he says, writing to a friend just before the end came, "I have lived upon bread and water* without a Art. I have even sold my clothes."

The Peruvians are a proud, Imperial race, living amid the grandest scenery of tbe western hemisphere and holding high Ideals of what is best in education* and the unbougbt grace of life. On the great country estates there is much of the fine tradltlonandchlvalrous sentiment that came from the best people of Castile and Aragon. The Indians of the high plateaus are a unique reminder of a civilization that bouts geoned centuries before tbe face of the white man had blossomed like a flower la; the western forests. The immemorial records of a civilization that vanished in the midst of man's earliest recollections are faintly suggested in splendid ruins among sublime scenes. The name and fame of the brilliant men who built the walls and temples of Guzco are lost, and all we know of the wonder and the charm of that forgotten culture in the Andes is found in the pathetic ruins of cities that are half as old as recorded time,—Peter MacQueen in National Magazine. Unwritten Law of the Sea. Here is one of the unwritten laws of the sea which we think could be repealed to advantage. It Is that which requires the captain of a ship to stay on the bridge during fog or very bad weather, no matter how long It continues. It is a fairly common thing to read in dispatches that the captain of this or that ship had been on the bridge for twenty-four or forty-eight or even sixty hours at a stretch because of storm or fog. Why should this be practiced? The most rugged man alive cannot be as alert, mentally and physically, after twenty-four hours of exposure as he was when he went on dnty. He cannot be as competent to render quick decisions—such, for instance, as an impending collision might call for—as a man who was un fatigued. The average transatlantic passenger, we fancy, would much pre fer to trust his life In an emergency to a fresh chief officer than to a jaded captain.—Marine News.

The Slovaks (Hungary) are a very peaceful, law abiding community, but there are probably black sheep among their number, and In front of a church at Postyen may be seen an ancient stone pillar, reminiscent of the days when punishment was meted out in much the same way as it was in England in those days. Fastened to this pillar in the center is a large iron clasp, and at the base two smaller ones close together. These clasps fitted around the waists and ankles of the offender, and when a man or woman had stolen something he or she was locked to this post on a Sunday and compelled to hold In the hands whatever had been stolen. Every Slovak attends church on Sundays, from which It may be gathered that this public-exposure was no small ordeal The post bears a terse Inscription, the translation of which is: "I do not ask you to come, but if you come I receive you.*—Wide World Magazine. Britain's Standing Army, The British standing army is a much more modern Institution than most people imagine. It dates from 1646, when the famous "new model" was established by act of the long parliament and maintained In existence notil the restoration. This army, which was organized by Cromwell, consisted of some 80,000 men and was probably the most effective army that England has ever possessed. But the cost was so great that on bis restoration Charles II. agreed to its abandonment, except a bodyguard: or household brigade of 5,000 sanctioned by parliament; which Included Monk's Coldstream regiment and two troops of cavalry raised by Charles himself, which formed the originals or the present Life guards.— London Standard. Most Disheartening. Stewart Edward White tells of his greatest disappointment. It happened when he was Ave years old. MI understood that those who maintained perfect deportment in school during the week would be given their choice of sweetmeats. I therefore behaved myself with extraordinary propriety. When tbe time came and I demanded my sweetmeats I found that it was my choice of a seatmate that had been offered. I never quite forgave that teacher and shall always consider the week of good conduct one lost out of my life."—Exchange. ^Witty Retort. **I tell you, Pet my boy,'* the big man of the town confided* laying a patronizing hand on the young Irishman's shoulder.

"Brother •Abe" expands under the w a r m reception !0f the sisters, and a reign of peace begins in the Old Ladies' home. Abe is the center of tlie community. T h e semi-annual visit of Blossy's aged lover. Capt. Samuel Darby, Is due. Abe advises h e r to m a r r y him. F o r the first time the captain fails to appear. CHAPTER VII—Continued. At night, however, she was obliged to admit that he could not be coming; iand then, quivering with honest anxl- ;ety for her old friend, Blossy dipped into her emergency fund, which she 'kept in the heart of a little pink china pig on a shelf in her room—a pink china pig with a lid made of stiff ;black h\?ir standing on edge in the middle of hifi hack—and sent a telegram to Captain Darby, asking if he were nick. < The answer came back slowly by mail, to find Blossy on the verge of a nervous collapse, under the care of all the women In the house. j That letter Blossy never showed to Brother Abe. nor to any one sfjfe. Neither did she treasure it in the sSnitimental trunk beneath the attic eaves. The letter ran: l>ar Betsy Ann: I never felt better In 'my life. Ain't been sick a minute. Just :made UD my mind I was a old fool, and {was going to quit. If you change your Indentions at any time. Just drop me a postal. As ever, SAM'L DARBY. ESQ. "This, Captain Darby, makes your rejection final," vowed Blossy to herself, as she tore the note into fragments and drowned them in the spirits of lavender with which the sisters Ibad been seeking to BOO the her distracted nerves. CHAPTER VIII. The Anniversary. About this time Blossy developed a tendency to draw Brother Abraham aside at every opportunity, convenient or inconvenient, in order to put such questions as these to him: 1 "Didn't you say it is fully thirty-five years since you and Captain Darby were on the beach together? Do you think he has grown much older? Had he lost his hair then? Did he care ifor the opposite sex? Was he very ibrave—or would you say more brave than stubborn and contrary? Isn't it a blessing that I never married him?/' Fearful of the ridicule-of the sisters, IBloesy was always careful to conduct 'these inquiries in whispers, or at least in undertones with a great observance of secrecy, sometimes stopping Abe on. the stairs, sometimes beckoning him to her side when she was busy about her household tasks on the pretense of requiring his assistance. On one occasion she even went so far as to inveigle him into holding a skein of wool about his clumsy hands, while she wound the violet worsted Into a ball, and delicately Inquired if he believed Samuel spoke the truth when ha protested that he had never paid court to any other woman. Alas, Blossy'* frequent tete-a-tete* with the amused but sometimes Impatient Abraham started an exceedingly foolish suspicion. When, asked the sisters of one another, did Abe ever help any one, save Blossy, shell dried beans or pick over prunes? When had he ever been known to hold wool for Angy's winding? Not once since wooing time, 1 warrant you. What could this continual ^hobnobbing and going off into corners mean, except— flirtation? Ruby Lee whispered K first into Aunt Nancy's good ear. Aunt Nancy indulged In four pinches 'of snuff in rapid succession, sneeted an amasing number of times, and then acridly informed Ruby Lee that she was a "Jeal- MS car* and always had been one. However, Aunt Nancy could not refrain from carrying the gossip to Miss Bnier adding that she herself had been of Abe's behavior from the "Qfr, no, no?' cried the shocked and Sfkrfaktog spinster. "And Angy so ' all the Urns? I dont believe But whisper, whisper, buzz, buzz, went the gossip, until finally it reached the pink little ears at the side of Miss Abigail e generously proportioned head. The pink ears turned crimson, likewise the adjoining cheeks, and Miss Abigail panted with righteous indignation. --— "It all comes of this plagued old winter time," she declared, sharply biting her thread, for she was mending a tablecloth. "Shet the winders on summer, an' yew ketch the tail of slander in the latch every time. Naow, hear one word about this 'tarnal hness comln' to Angy's ears, or er Abe's, or Blosey's either, fer !a,t matter, we'll afl have to eat off'n oil-cloth Sundays, the same as weekdays,, until I see a more Christian sperit In the house." She^ave the Sunday damask across her lap a pat which showed she was in earnest; and the rebuked sisters glanced at one another, as if to say: "Suppose the minister should walk in some Sabbath afternoon and find oil-cloth on the table, and ask the reason why?" They one and all determined to take Aunt Nancy's advice and "sew a button on their lips." Fortunately, too, the February thaws had already set in, and the remainder \ sianae '^fat n Was Careful to Conduct These Inquiries In Whispers. of the winter passed without any severe strain on the "buttonholes." And at length the welcome spring began to peep forth, calling to the old folks, "Come out, and grow young with the young year!" With the bursting forth of the new springtide the winter's talk seemed to drop as a withered and dead oak leaf falls from its winter-bound branches; and Abe stood once more alive to the blessings of renewed approval. Angy went out of doors with Miss Abigail, and puttered around among the flowers as it they were her own, thanking God for Abe'e increasing popularity in the same breath that she gave thanks for the new buds of the spring. The anniversary of the Roses' entrance into the Home drew nearer, and Blossy suggested that the best way to celebrate the event would he by means of a "pink tea." Neither Angy nor Abe, nor in fact half the sisters, had any clear conception of what a tinted function might he; but they one and all seised upon Blossy's idea as if it were a veritable inspiration, and for the time Jealousies were forgotten, misunderstandings erased. ^ Such preparations as were made for that teal The deaf-and-dumb gardener was sent with a detachment of small boys to fetch from the wayside and meadows armfuls of wild roses for the decorations. Miss Abigail made pink icing for the cake. Ruby Lee hung bleeding-hearts over the dining-room doe*. Aunt Nancy resurrected from the bottom of her trunk a white lace cap with a rakish-looking pink bow tor an adornment, and fastened it to her scant gray hairs in honor of the occasion. Blossy turned her pink china pig, bis lid left upstair*, into a sugar bowk Pink, pink, pink, everywhere; even in Angy's proud cheeks I Pink, and pink, and pink! Abe used to grow dizzy, afterward, trying to recall the various pink articles which graced that tea But most delightful surprise of all was his anniversary gift, which was slyly slipped to his place after the discuseion of the rose-colored strawberry gelatin, it was a square, five-pound parcel wrapped in pink tissue paper, tied with pink string, and found to contain so much Virginia tobacco, which Blossy had inveigled an old southern admirer into sending her for "charitable purposes." , * After the presentation of this valuable gift. Abraham felt that the time had come for him to make a speech— practically his maiden speech. He said at the beginning, more suavely at hie ease than he would have believed possible, secure of sympathy and approbation, with Angy's gtowing old eyes upon her prodigy, that all the while he had been at the Home, he had never before felt the power to express his gratitude for the welcome which had been accorded him—the welcome which seemed to wear and wear, as if it were all wool and a yard wide, and could never wear out. The old ladies nodded their heads In approval of this, every face beaming: but as the speech went on the others perceived that Abe had singled out Blossy for special mention—blind, blind Abraham—Blossy, who had firBt proposed admitting him into this paradise; Blossy, who had given up her sunny Bouth chamber to his comfort arid Angy's; Blossy, who had been as a "guardeen angel" to him; Blossy, who as a fitting climax to all her sisterly attentions had given him today this wonderful, wonderful pink tea. and "this five hull pound o' Virginny terbaccer." He held the parcel close to his bosom, and went on, still praising Blossy—this innocent old gentleman —heedless of Angy's gentle tug at his coat-tail; while Blossy buried her absurdly lovely face in the pink flush of a wild-rose spray, and the other old ladies stared from him to her, their faces growing hard and cold. When Abraham' sat down, aglow with pride over his oratorical triumphs, his chest expanded, his countenance wrinkled into a thousand guilelees, grateful smiles, there was absolute silence. Then Blossy, her head still bowed as if in shy. confusion, began to clap her hands daintily together, whereat a few of the others joined her half-heartedly. A sense of chill crept over Abraham. Accustomed as a rule to deferential attention, did he but say good morning, by no means aware that his throne had toppled during the winter, he was still forced to perceive that something had gone amis*. As always when aught troubled his mind, "father" turned to Angy; but Instead of his composed and resourceful little wife he found a scared-faced and trembling woman. Angy had suddenly become conscious of the shadow of the green-eyed monster. Angy's loyal heart was crying out to her mate: "Don't git the sisters daown on yer, Abe, 'cuz then, mebbe, yew'U lose your hum!" But poor Angeline'e lips were so stiff with terror over the prospect of the' county house for her husband, that she could not persuade them to speech. Abraham, completely at sea, turned next to her whom he had called his guardian angel; but Blossy was rising from ber seat, a baffling smile of expectancy on her face, the rose spray swinging in her delicate band as If to the measure of some music too far back in youth for anyone else to bear. Blossy had worn that expectant look all day. She might have been delightedly hugging to herself a secret which she had not shared even with the trusted Abraham. She was gowned in her yellow, lace, the beauty and grace of which had defied the changing fashions as Bloasy's remarkable elegance of appearance had defied the passing of the years. "Brother Abe,"—in her heedlessness of the mischief she had wrought, Blossy seemed almost to sing-—-"I never shall forget your speech as long as I live. Will you excuse me now?" She swept out of the door, her skirts rustling behind her. Abe collected himself so far ae to bow in the direction she had taken; then with lamblike eyes of inquiry met the exasperated glances cast upon him. Not ji sister moved or spoke. They all sat as if .glued to their chairs, in a silence that was fast growing appalling. Abe turned his head and looked behind his chair for an explanation; but nothing met his eye, save the familiar picture on the wall of two white kittens playing in the midst of a huge bunch of purple lilacs. Then there broke upon the stillness the quavering old voice of . Aunt Nancy, from her place opposite Abe's at the head of the board. The aged dame bad her two hands clasped before her on the edge of the table, vainly trying to steady their palsied shaking. Her eyes, bright, piercing, age-defying, she fixed upon the bewildered Abraham with a look of deep and sorrowful reproach. Her unsteady head bobbed backward and forward with many an accusing nod, arid the cap with its rakish pink bow bobbed backward and forward too. Abe watched her, fascinated, unconsciously wondering, even in the midst of his disquietude, why the cap did not slide off her bald scalp entirely. To his amazement, she addressed not himself, but Angy. "Sister Rose, yew kin leave the room." Implacable purpose spoke in Aunt Nancy's tone. Angy started, looked up, going first red and then white; but she did not move. 8he opened her lips to speak. "I don't want ter hear a word from yew, nor anybody else," sternly interposed Aunt Nancy. "I'm old enough ter be yer mother. Go upstairs!" Angy's glance sought Miss Abigail, but the matron's eyes avoided hers. The little wife sighed, rose reluctantly, dropped her hand doubtfully reassuring on Abe's shoulder, and then went obediently to the door. From the threshold she looked wistfully back; but an imperious wave from Aunt Nancy banished her altogether, and Abe found himself alone —not with the sisters whom he loved, but with 28 hard-visaged strangers.

In the year 1364 Boccaccio presentee to his friend Petrarch a copy of Saint Augustine's "Commentary on the Psalms." The poet thereupon sent to the author of the "Decameron," a letter written in Latin—part of which may be translated thus: "You have overwhelmed me with joy by a present magnificent and rare. Henceforth I shall swim more surely on the ssa of David. Into the midst of this troubled sea you have sent me a very sturdy ship and a clever pilot, Saint Augustine, whose genius is divine. I have received it with joy and astonishment, and have said to myself: 'Laziness, get thee behind me; if ever a moment of leisure remains to me, this gift shall All it Here U an Illustrious guest that must receive the bjest fare, and will not let me steep a wink o' nights.

DAY OF THE SMALL INVESTOR Wiser Than the Speculator Is He Who Puts His Money Into Bonds That Work for Him. Of course, there are those who like to run the risk of speculation. Not infrequently some one writes me that be has a certain amount of, money with which he would like to speculate and that he will not complain if he loses. I don't encourage speculation,^ecause I am not a believer in it, yet I recognise that man is a horn speculator. One will speculate in real estate, another in cotton, corn, of! or cheese. The woman who goer to the bargain counter and, because something is cheap, buys it, though she does not need it, expects that she will need i t some day and she take* that chance. In other words, she speculates. In these days when $100 bonds of th* best kind are so-freely offered, and when a person can buy a single share of the most profitable railroad and industrial corporations just as readily as a big investor can buy 100 or 1,000 shares, it is not surprising that there are more small investors than ever before. They are scattered an over the country. Many a farmer, clerk or workman in the factory has quietly stowed away a few shares of stock* or a few ftlfc), $6*0 or $1,000 bonds.

V;iv* Paris—Desperate attempts made by the Germans on the western end of the long line of battle to break through the allies' forces which are engaged In a turning movement have resulted in the most furious fighting which has taken place since the beginning of the campaign.. After fighting without respite night and day, corps after corps bf Germans was hurled against the flower of the French and English armies, only to be thrown back. The infantry bore the brunt of the incessant fighting, but the artillery of both armies continued throughout 24 hours to bombard each other's positions. Hand-to-hand combats occurred at many points and bayonet were used freely. The French Colonial infantry, most of whose men were many medals for bravery displayed in colonial campaigns, was to the fore, and beside these men fought the black Sengalese troops, while further along the line the greatest determination. French 8how Great Courage. The French. troops showed more than their accustomed dash in attacks; everywhere acts of wonderful courage were performed. The cavalry also participated in the engagements at many points, the allies' horses having enjoyed a long rest which enabled this arm of the service to distinguish itself. The famous Scots Greys, finding that the color of their horses offered a prominent mark for the German riflemen, had dyed their mounts brown. * Another prominent French officer, General Marquet has met death on the field. At Nubecourt, home of the parents of President Poincare, the Germans broke open the Poincare family vault, it is reported, and buried a number of their dead there. The Germans placarded the town or Valenciennes, demanding from the mayors of neighboring communes lists of the available supplies of clothing and food. Big Battle On East Prussia. London—A dispatch from Petrograd says that a decisive battle is imminent on the border of East Prussia. The Germans are being heavily re* inforced. The armies are in close touch along the whole western line from near Meml, in the north, to the frontier of the government of Kalisch. Other dispatches from Petrograd report that fierce fighting still goes on in Gallcia, though Cracow, towards which the Russian hosts have been marching ever since Przemysl was invested and the communications cut, has not yet been attacked. To the north the German invasion is assuming vaster proportions, notwithstanding the Russian war office insists that the Germans are being repulsed at the frontier. It is estimated here that the German front extends from the Baltic coast to the southern boundary of Silesia, a distance of about 400 miles. What opposition the Germans have met is believed to have been little more than a cavalry screen. The fighting centered again along the river Niemen, from Drukenik% in SuwalU, Russian Poland, to Sopotxkin. The official statement issued at Petrograd said that the German artillery had been unable to assume the offensive at SopotzUn and that their retreat was more or Jess general. s, BRIEF NOTES OF WAR Durable Snow.
