Three contracts are being rushed to complete the work this fall if possible, as this route between Grand Rapids, Lansing and Detroit will be used next year to accomodate the usual travel on Grand River Road. It is proposed to pave Grand River road with 20 foot pavement, widen the * thoroughfare to 100 feet and bring it j up to a first class highway. With one J exception Grand River has more I traffic than any of the main arteries i out of Detroit. j When the present work on M-19 is completed another fine y)ad will be available to Detroit from the west. This will save 12 miles of travel on the the Detroit route from Pinckney and will be the shortest route from points west of here as far as Stockbridge and Mason.

(Prepared by the United States Department ef ArrtenUvre.) Perhaps no other animal Is relatively so strong, does so much hard work in a day, or eats so much 1¾ proportion to its size and weight, m the American mole. A mole's appetite seems to be almost insatiable. When held in captivity and given food to its liking, it will sometimes eat more than Its own weight in a day. Tills i need for a large quantity of food is I probably due to the intense activity | of the little animal, for experiments have shown that It may be found at work at any hour of the day or night, whenever its iunways require repairing or It Is in need of new sources of food supplies. From the standpoint of food habits. it would seem that moles are chiefly | beneficial or at least neutrai. Experiments conducted by the United States 1 Department of Agriculture show that the mole is a carnivorous unimal, though vegetable matter is occasionally found in its stomach. An examination of the stomachs of 200 moles showed that earthworms and wh:te East Buffalo Live Stock. Oct. 5—Cattle: Steady.

ID one stomach were found the remains of 71 small white grubs, in one 250 ant puparia, in one ten cutworms, and In another 12 earthworms. In captivity, moles ravenously eat beefsteak, flesh of birds, fish, or almost any sort of fresh meat, but starve to death when supplied with nothing other than grain and root crops. . The chief damage done by the mole seems to be In tearing up gardens and making unsightly ridges in lawns. Moles have been dealt with In the United States chiefly as a nuisance, hut in some- European countries they are trapped extensively not only to be rid of them as a pest but also to harvest their pelts. In tills country it has been demonstrated that moles are never dormant, that they never hibernate. They may be trapped at any time of the year when the ground is not frozen too hard to permit the working of the trap.

The near Northwest, which includes Minnesota, the Dakotas, and parts of adjoining states, grows hard spring wheat; the Southwest, also Nebraska and Kansas, prows hard winter wheat; and the East and states as far west as Missouri and Iowa grow soft winter wheat. Of course, these areas overlap to some extent. Most of the confusion has been caused hy different names for shorts and middlings. In some parts of the country these terms are used synonymously, in others one may be used to the exclusion of the other. Where both are used there seems to be a tendency to apply the term "shorts" to the courser materials, such ns standard middlings; and the term "middling^" to the finer materials, such as red dog flour. While there often may he considerable differences in the composition of corresponding by-products because of tbe differences in composition and texture of the wheat and of the slight differences in milling practice, the methods of manufacture in the different milling sections are similar and the following table, rend horizontally, shows the names used in the different regions for tbe same by-product feed : Northwest.

Not many poultry keepers realize the close relation between the condition of the litter In the fowls' quarters and the health of the birds. Poultry specialists at the Iowa station say that unwholesome litter has been known to cause the death of hens, and they recommend covering the floor with finely cut alfalfa or clover.

Sows put on balanced rations raised 71 per cent more pigs than those receiving the same management but fed on low protein rations in a "Save the Pig" campaign carried on by extension workers in Kansas last spring. Farrowing records were kept by 53 farmers. According to a report "received by the United States Department of Agriculture, 263 sows on 29 farms received corn and a protein supplement of either tankage, skim milk, alfalfa, or linsee'd-oll meal. These 263 sows farrowed 2,669 pigs, an average of 10 to a litter; of these pigs, 1,713 were weaned, an average of 6.5 pigs per litter. On 11 farms, 160 sows received mostly corn rations, farrowing 1,194 pigs, an average of 7 to the Utter; ot these pigs, 1,645 were weaned, an average of 3.8 pigs to a litter.

CONTROL CURCULI0 BY SPRAY Good Progress M«d« In Georgia In Overcoming Infestation—Big Peach Crop Produced. One of the best peach crops ever produced in Georgia has just been harvested, it is reported to the United States Department of Agriculture. Very good progress was made In overcoming the heavy curculio infestation. All varieties, through to the close of the Elberta season, have been unusually free from curculio larvae. Careful investigations of commercial orchards treated according to the advice of department and state specialists showed that curculio damage was not greater than an average of one wormy peach in each five-eighths bushel basket. In these orchards dropped fruit was picked up and destroyed, and cultivation for the destruction of pupae practiced, in addition to very thorough spraying. TO DRIVE OUT TUBERCULOSIS Plan for Eradicating Disease in Cattle Prom Entire Areas Daily Grow* ing in Popularity. The plan for eradicating tuberculosis in cattle from entire areas, such as counties, is dally growing in popularity according to reports coming to the United States Department of Agriculture. The Idea has taken hold in Michigan and is spreading rapidly. Already five counties have been freed of the plague, and reports from the inspector in charge for the government show that the boards of supervisors have appropriated money and made provision for co-operating with stute and federal forces, When one county Joins the ranks for eradication its action stimulates others to follow. The prospect of ultimately ridding Ihe country of the disease never looked so promising as at present, say thctse in charge.

This' will be a long step forward because it will mean cheaper textiles. In the past Germany has been the one great source of dye supply. The progress made du/ing the year Includes the production in the United States for the first time of a number of dyes of greater complexity and more specialized application. Many of these dyesT which are of secondary importance from the point of view of quantity consumed, are essentialein the dyeing and printing of numerous fabrics. These additions to our list of dyes represent an added step toward a wellrounded coal-tar chemical industry in this country. The development of many of these new products is a highly technical achievement. There were 201 firms engaged in the. manufacture of coal-tar derivatives in 1921. The output of dyes by 'i* firms exceeded 39,000,000 pounds. The sales during 1921 exceeded 47,- 000,000 pounds valued at more than $88,000,000. The sales exceeded production by 22 per cent, Indicating that a part of the domestic consumption for that year was supplied from the large stocks carried over from the previous year's abnormally high production. The sales ef dyes for 1921 exceeded the imports of 1914, when the United States Imported nearly 46,000,000 pounds and produced over' 8,000,000 pounds of dyes from German Imported Intermediates. Other Coal-Tar Products! Conspicuous progress was made In the production of other finished products derived from coal tar. This is particularly true in the field of synthetic medicinals, many of which are essential to the public welfare. Among finished products derived from coal tar, the production of perfumes and flavors showed an Increase compared with tbat of the previous year, while the output of colorlakes, photographic chemicals, medicinals, synthetic phenolic resli.B, and synthetic tanning materials showed reductions ID 1921. The average price of all dyes In 1921 was 83 cents per pound, Compared with a value of $1.08 per pound In 1920 and a value of $1.26 for 1917. The tendency has been to reduce both the cost of production and the sales price of dyer produced In the United States. In comparing the prices of these different years, it should also be borne in mind that the development of dyet, each year of greater vale and complexity has tended to Increase the average value per pound of all dyes produced. The total quantity of dyes imported in 1921 wus 3,914,036 pounds valued at $5,150,779 or $1.32 per pound, compared with 3,402^82 pounds valued at $6,763,437 In the previous year. The Imports of 1921 represent 10 per cent of the production and about 8 per cent of the total dye sales during the year. Germany supplied about 48 per cent of the total dyes Imported during 1921; Switserland, 41 per cent; Kng-1 age. land, 7 jer -cent, and all .other eoun- ""**"* tries 4 per cent of our importation of dyes. Exports of Dyes Decrease. Exports of domestic dyes for 1921 show a decrease of nearly 79» per cent compared with those for the previous year. The value of our exports for 1921 was $6,270,139 compared with $29,823,591 in 1920. The total exports of dyes fo." 1921 were less than for the year 1917, when the first considerable expansion of the domestic dye industry from prewar conditions occurred. This great reduction In our export trade may be attributed In part to the general business depression, but the chief cause was the appearance of German dyes, with which the domestic producers have* been unable to compete, In such principal world markets as China, India, and Japan. The total production of synthetic organic chemicals other than those derived from coal tar, which are used as medicinals, perfumes, flavoring ingredients, solvents, and in numerous Industrial processes, was 21,545,186 pounds; the sales amounted to 16,761,098 pounds valued at $13,746^235. The development of this industry In the United States has been similar to that surrounding the dye industry, as our supply of synthetic organic chemicals was controlled primarily by Germany prior to the war. Junior Naval Reserve Growing. I The Junior Naval Keserve seems to have come to stay. It was Incorporated in 1915 as a national organisation. In 1019 a reorganization took place and new policies were Instituted. The most Important change m the plans was the arranging of a nation-wide program for the organization of neighborhood units or local training stations throughout the United States. In nearly all the 48 states there are today strcessfolry conducted I ties are in progress In some stage looking to the formation of these boy units. The work in any given.state la -begun only after the governor of that state has hsd the plans of the organization laid before him, and he has given these plans bis approval and has accepted a place on the honorary board of state governors. On the advice of the national councilman for the state, a state council is formed, composed of one representative citizen from each county. Under the guidance of the county members of the state c^unciC local councils are formed, and these constitute the ?,blg brother" committees lor the organisation, of boy units. The national council participates in the selection of the advisory hoard, which through its executive committee directs the ^affairs of the organisation. • This committee, known as the "executive board," constitutes a "commission form of government," deemed almost practical and effective in carrying on a nation-wide movement, such as the Junior naval reserve has become. Helped by Specialists. The executive board is aided in the performance of its duties by small consulting boards of spechiltsts, representing many lines. For example, there are a military board aud boards of navigation, finance, hygiene, athletics, aviation, publicity and so on. The men who lend their co-operation in these small committees arc carefully chosen and are representative exponents of specialized thought Thus It will be seen that there is an adult civic organization on the one hand and a junior or cadet organization on the other hand. Working along parallel lines ta-these two ideas are parents' associations, which complete an interesting- triangle and lend simultaneously greater strength to the men's committee and the boys' unit. Local, state and national auxiliaries of women are a part of the general scheme. While the civic organization is being perfected within a state, the military- naval structure is being created through the advice of naval and military members of the Junior Naval Keserve, conferring with the state adjutant general and military authorities within the state, as well as veteran organizations like the Military Order of the Loyal Legion, the American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, United American War Veterans aud other like bodies. A state commandunt is selected and when approved by national headquarters is duly commissioned and thereupon becomes the military-naval head of the organization within his state. A Judge, advocate and an, inspector general are also chosen. The state commandant appoints his staff, consisting of an aide and an executive officer with two aide.** and navigation, signal, engineering, ordnance and aviation officers, a surgeon, a paymaster and other stuff officers. These constitute his "war board," or consulting committee, and under their guidance are worked out the details of plans of the movement within the state, along general lines already mapped out by national headquarters. Ex-Servic« Men Called On. Through the advice of the county councilman, activities are started iu each town, and ex-service mew from tho navy and marine corps are Invited to volunteer as local commandants. A recruiting campaign it* commenced by eliciting the Interest of the lwnl press, the veteran organizations, the chainbet" of commerce, Rotary club, and other like organizations, church congregations, public and private schools and through such other instrumentalities as will take the message of the reserve to the boy member. Junior Naval Reserve units are known as posts, and are composed of 16 or more boys of fourteen years and over, but boys of thirteejp are sometimes perunltted to enlist If well grown for their In large cities membership in posts Is restricted to boys who reside within specified boundaries. The local governing body of the organization works out the salvation of the movement within a community along standardized lines, carefully thought out at national headquarters, 2180 BroHdway, New York city. Kach post Is given a serial number, an;l the boys in the post choose the name, usually historic In character and preferably local. The name of some local hero who made the supreme sacrifice during the World war is usually selected. His Vacation. A summer boarder In one of the towns on the Cape noticed a native who sat every morning on the same dry goods box. smoking a corncob pipe, and otherwise displaying an unmistakable aptitude for leisure. Finally the boarder asked him what his business wns. The smoker slowly moved his pine, and drawled: "Waal, I get tip in the morning and feed the horse, then I eat breakfast.

THE SOLVAY PROCESS CO. t.WWG * CYANS, h e . C5 B~fc BU*.. D*b*it. I That the safest course for the average Michigan orchardist is to plant his trees in trie spring, in order to avoid) danger of winter injury from severe cold, is the opinion of the Michigan Agricultural College department of horticulture. The advantages of fall planting, which are great in certain sections, are more than outweighed in this State by the chances that an unusually severe winter will result in serious injury or even actual killing of the new ly planted trees. The arguments in favor of fall planting are logical enough. There is generally less work to be done an the farm at that season. Conditions in the fall favor good root growth and sound establishment of the trees. In the spring, there is danger of a too heavy drain upon the trees in supporting not only root growth but also the opening leaf buds. The advantage, then, would seem to rest with the fall planted trees, other things being equal. However, the other things are not always equal, and climatic conditions must be taken into consideration. In some sections fall planting is almost universal, but in others it is just as universally avoided. Where winters are really cold, fallplanted trees are liable to severe damage, while in other zones, generally southerly in location, mild winters make fall planting advisable. Michigan lies, for the most part, in n .sort of neutral zone where some winters are mild enough to that trees planted the previous fall come through nicely. Some Michigan winters, on the other hand, are so cold that even trees set out the previous spring are in danger and fall trees have no chance at nil. 'inasmuch as we ennnot predict in October what th« wfnter will be like, the saicct .course is to plant in the spring is Michigan.

The Detroit Edison Companj The Hoys rind Girls club work at the FowlerviUe Fair took anything but a sen-ill pnrt in making the Fair what it was. The success of this showing was only made possible through the cooperation and keen insight of the directors and their efficient secretary, Mr. Peek. Due to the fact that nearly every club member was at school and the expense of moving everything to the fair was impossible, from the standpoint of the club members, seeing they had already had considerable expense at the Howell Fair, the Fair Association appropriated sufficient money to pay for all the trucking charges and other expense necessary to take care of the stock while on the grounds. The sum of 8250.00 was appropriated to be used for prizes. This is considerable more than most fairs have appropriated for rtiis work. The business men at FowlerviUe, who are very much interested in the work, also stepped in and gave it a push. They subscribed l?73.00 to be used a* special premiums for the club members. The subscriptions vary in amount from $1.00 to $5.00 apiece, and the different amounts will be given in the way of mercrmnidse as far as possible to the winners. The prises won by members are as follows: HoUtmn* Sr. yearling:Wllliam Gilkes, Howell, first, $5.00.

Hoop Craze, It la Reliably Reported, Threaten! to ingulf Womankind Once More. " * The Jazz skirt is doomed. Those who have refrained from drinking wood alcohol for fear of going blind during the brief skirt epidemic need have no such compunction In the future. A French fashion Journal says the hoop skirt will be all the rage within one year, writes Roy K. Moulton In the New York Mall. The first hoop skirt was designed by Omar the Tentmaker, and the idea was later used by P. 1* Barnum to house his congress of freaks and animals. So far as history goes Omar's design was first used as a skirt by the late lamented Queen Elizabeth. When Queen Liz floated out of Windsor castle to take the air she resembled a full-rigged ship sailing before the wind, with everything working, Including the foretop'l spinnaker and Jibs. She occupied so much territory that she had to speak In a loud tone of voice to be heard by her large circle of admirers. They used to hold the six-day bicycle races around the edge of her skirt. In those day- the woman herself merely acted In the capacity of center pole for the tent she wore and when she was overtaken by a high wind It was customary for her flunkies to stake her gown to the ground around the edge 3. There waa a lull in the hoop skirt epidemic for some time, and hoop skirts broke out In this country along about the Civil war period. They didn't exactly c a w s the war, but they mar cause ens this time. ^ , # OCT. 19 Oct. 19 • THURSDAY I October 19, 1922 i AT 10:00 O'CLOCK Howell Sales Co.

THRACE NOW, READY TO FIGHT FOR PROVINCE Pre nee Backs Angora Government While Italian and British Delegates, Oppee^ Paeha's Demands. London—A new crisis arose in the Near Eastern (situation, which had seemed on a fair way to settlement, The armistice conference of Allied, Greek" and Turkish military leaders at Mudanit was adjourned suddenly after a dramatic passage in which Ismet Pasha, representing the Angora government, demanded that the Turks be allowed to occupy Eastern Thrace as a precedent to any peace conference. Ismet Pasha told the Allied generals that tf the Turks could not have Thrace peacefully, "we have the means to enforce our determination," Earlier in the day the Greek delegates had declared in no less certain terms their readiness to fight, if necessary, to retain the province. That the Turkish demand had been duly weighed and calculated is evidenced by the almost simultaneous receipt of an Angora dispatch quoting Mustapha Kemal Pasha as declaring before the National Assembly: "The evacuation and surrender of Thrace must occur immediately, especially as since the Greek revolution the Moslem subjects are in great danger." Ismet Pasha's bombshell was followed by another when the French delegates announced they were instructed to support the Turkish demand. This created a definite split, with the Turks and French opposed to the British and Italians, the latter holding that evacuation of Thrace by the Greeks and reoccupatlon by the Turks should follow and not precede the peace conference. The Allied generals thereupon adjourned the meeting and left for Constantinople to consult with the high commissioners and the British and Italians to ask definite instructions from their home governments, with the understanding that a further meeting would folloJ their receipt.

Constance gazed at her; the woman was plainly glad of her coming. Her relief—relief from that fear she had feeling when she opened the door very evident. It was Henry, then, who had frightened her. The Indian woman set a chair for tier beside the stove, and put water in A pan to heat; she shook tea leaves from a box into a bowl and brought a anp. "How many on that ship?" "Altogether there were •Jne," Constance replied. "Seven are living then." "Seven? What have yon heard? What makes you think so?" "That is what the Drum says." The Drum! There was a Drum then! At least there was some sound which people heard and which they called the Drum. For the woman had heard It Constance grew suddenly cold. Tor twenty lives, the woman said, the Drum had beat; that meant to her, and to Constance too now, that seven were left Indefinite, desperate denial fthat all from the ferry most be dead— that denial which had been -strengthaned by the news that at least one boat had been adrift near Beaveraltered In Constance to conviction of a boat with seven men from the ferry, •even dying, perhaps, but not yet dead. Seven out of twenty-seven; The score were gone; the Drum had heat for them in little groups as they died. When the Drum beat again, would It beat beyond the score? Having finished the tea, Constance returned to the door and reopened It; the sounds outside were the same. A solitary figure appeared moving along the edge of the lce-«*he figure of a tall man, walking on tnowshoes; moonlight distorted the figure, and it was muffled, too, In a great coat which saade . It unrecognizable. He halted and stood looking out at the lake and than, with a sudden movement strode •a* he halted again, and now Con* atanee got the knowledge that he was a*t looking; he was listening as she thlrty- "Is the Drum sounding now?" she asked the woman. "No." Constance gazed again at the man aad found his motion quite unmistakable; he was counting—if not counting something that he heard, or thought he heard, ha was recounting and reviewing within himself something that he had heard before—some Irregular rhythm which had become so much a •art of him that it soonded now con- •anally within, his own brain; so that. Instinctively, he moved In cadence to It Hs stepped forward again sow, aad turned toward the bouse. Bar breath caught as aha spoke to gas- woman.

Quilt—guilt of some awful sort connected him, and had connected Uncle Benny, with the Miwaka—the lost ship for which the Drum hajd beaten the roll of the dead. Guilt was In his thought now—racking, tearing at him. But there was something more than that; what she had seen in him when he first caught sight of her was fear—fear of her, of Constance Sherrin. MYoa came up here about Ben Corvet I" he challenged. "Yea—nolH g j , ( , "Which do you mean?" "No." **I know, then. For him, then—eh 1 For him?- "For Alan Conrad? Yes," she said. "I knew it i" he repeated. "He's been the trouble between you and me all 'the time!'* She made no denial of that; she had begun to know during the last two days that it was so. "So you came to find him?" Henry went on. "He'll be found 1" she defied hUn. "Be found?" "Some" are dead," she admitted, "but not all. Twenty are dead; but seven are not!" "Seven?" be echoed. "You say seven are not 1 How do you know?" "The Drtyn has been beating for twenty, but not for morel" Constance said. "The Drum you've been listening to all day upon the beacb—the Indian Drum that sounded for the dead of the Miwaka; sounded, one by one, for all who died I But it didn't sound for him 1 It's been sounding again, you know; but, again, it doesn't sound for him, Henry, not for him I" "The Miwaka1 What do you mean by that? What's that got to do with this?" His swollen face was thrust forward at her; there was threat against her In his tense muscles and his bloodshot eyes. She did not shrink back from him, or move; and now h& was not waiting for her answer. Something—a sound —had caught hlra about Once it echoed, low in its reverberation but penetrating and quite distinct It came, so far as direction could be assigned to it from the trees toward the shore; but it was like no forest sound. Distinct, too, was it from any noise of the lake. It was like a Drum I Yet, when the echo had gone, It was a sensation easy to deny—a hallucination, that was all. But now, low and distinct it came again; and, as before, Constance saw it catch Henry and hold him. His lips moved, but he did not speak; he was counting. "Two," she saw his lips form. The sound of the Drum was continuing, the beats a few seconds apart "Twelve," Constance counted to herself. The beats had seemed to be quite measured and regular at first; but now Constance knew that this was only roughly true; they beat rather In rhythm than at regular intervals. "Twenty—twenty-one — twenty-two I" Quilt Was In His Thought Nov*—Rack. Ina, Tearing at Him. Constance caught breath and waited for the next bast; the time of the Interval between the measures of the rhythm passed, end still only the whistle of tha wind and the undertone of water sounded. The Drum had beaten its roll and, for the moment was done. Twenty-two had bean her count as nearly as she could count tt an; the reckoning agreed with what the Indian woman had beard. Two had died, then, since the Drum last had heat, when Its roll was twenty. Two more than before; that meant five were left! Constance caught as her woolen action seemed to call Henry to himself. "What are you going to dor ha demanded. T m going owt* her ana the "Mot alone, you're not!" His heavy voles had a deep tone of menace In it; he seemed to consider and decide something about her. "There's s farmhouse about a mile back; I'm going to take yon over there and leave you with thoas DOPDICL" "I will not go there I" He swore. "HI carry you, then 1* She shrank back from him as he lurched toward her with hands outstretched to seize her; he followed her, and she avoided him again; if his guilt snd terror had given her mental ascendency over him, his physical strength could still force her to his will and, realizing the Impossibility of evading him or overcoming him, she stopped. "Not that I" she cried. "Don't touch me 1" "Come with me, then!" he commanded ; and be went to the door and laid his snowshoes on the snow and stepped Into them, stooping and tightening the straps; he stood by while she put on hers. He did not attempt again to put hands upon her as they moved away from the little cabin toward the woods back of the clearing; but went ahead, breaking the trail for her with his snowshoes. He moved forward slowly; he could travel, If he had wished, three feet to every two that she could cover, but he seemed not wishing for speed but rather for delay. A deep, dull resonance was booming above the wood; it boomed again and ran into a rhythm. No longer was tt above; at least It was not only above j it was all about them— here, there, to rl<jht and to left before, behind—the booming of the Drum. Doom was the substance of that sound of the Drum beating the roll of the dead. Henry hal stopped in front of her, half turned her way; his body swayed and bent to the booming of the Drum, as his swollen lips, counted its soundings. She could see him plainly in the moonlight yet she drew nearer to him as she followed his count "Twentyone," he counted—"Twenty-two 1" The dram was still going on. "Twentyfour— twenty-five—twenty-six!" Would he count another? He did not; and her pulses, which had halted, leaped with relief. He moved on again, descending the steep side of a Uttle ravine, and she followed. One of his snowshoes caught In a protruding root and, instead of slowing to free It with care, he pulled It violently out, and she heard the dry, seasoned wood crack. He looked down, swore; saw that the wood was not broken through and went on; but as he reached the bottom of the slope, she leaped downward from a little height behind him and crashed down upon his trailing snowshoe Just behind the heel. The rending snap of the wood came beneath her feet. Had she broken through his shoe or snapped her own? She sprang back, as he cried out and swung In an attempt to grasp her; he lunged to follow her, and she ran a few steps sway and stopped. At his next step his foot entangled tn the mesh of the broken snowshoe, and he stooped, cursing, to strip it off and hurl It from him; then he tore off the one from the other foot snd threw it away, and lurched after her again; but now he sank above his knees and floundered In the snow. She stood for s moment while the half-mad, halfdrunken figure struggled toward her along the side of the ravine; then she ran to where the tree trunks hid her from him. Be gained the top of the slope and turned in the direction she had gone; assured then, apparently, that she had flown In fear of him, he started back more swiftly toward the beach. She followed, keeping out of bis sight among the trees. To twenty-six, he had counted—to twenty-six, each time! That told that ha knew one was living among those who had been upon, the ferry I What 6na? It could only'be one of two to dismay him so; there had bean only two on the ferry whose rescue he had feared; only two who, living, he would have let lie upon this beach which he had chosen and set aside for his patrol, while he waited for him to die 1 She forced herself on, unsparingly, as she saw Henry jaln the shore and as, believing himself alone, he hurried northward. She could not rest; she could not let herself be exhausted. Merciless minute after minute she raced him thus— A dark shape—a figure lay stretched upon the Ice ahead 1 Beyond and still farther out something which seemed the fragments of a lifeboat tossed up and down where the waves thundered and gleamed at the edge of the floe. Henry's pace quickened; hers quickened desperately, too. She left the shelter of the trees snd scrambled down the steep pitch of the bluff, shouting, crying aloud. Henry turned about and saw her; he hslted. and she passed him with a rush and got between him and the form upon the ice, before she turned and faced bim. ., Defeat—defeat of whatever purpose he had had—was his now that she was there to witness wbst he might do; and She ran to the huddled figure of the man In macklnaw and cap; bis face was hidden partly by the position in which he lay and partly by the drifting snow; but, before she swept the snow away and turned him to her, she knew that he was Alan. She cried to him and, when he did not answer, she shook him to get him awake; hat she could not rouse him. Praying In wild whispers to herself, she opened his Jacket aad felt wlthla his clothes; he was warm—af least he was n\>t*froxen within 1 No; and there seemed SOSM stir of his heart I She tried to lift Mm, to carry htm; then to drag him.

She mast have aid, she must get him to soma house, she must take him out of the terrible cold; but dared she leave him? Might Henry return, if abe ^gnt away? She arose and looked about Far up the shore she saw his figure rising and falling with his flight over the rough ice. A sound came to her, too, the low, deep reverberation of the Drum beating once more along the shore and in the woods and out upon the lake; and it seemed to her that Henry's figure, In the stumbling steps of his flight *as keeping time to the wild rhythm of that sound.

"So this isn't your house, Judah ?- "No, Alan; this Is an Indian's houw, but It is not mine. It Is Adam Enos1 house. He and his wife wentls^mewhere else when you needed this.'* "He helped to bring me here, then?" "No, Alan. Tbey were alone, here— she and Adam's wife. When she found you, they brought you here—more than a mile along*the beach. Two women !" Alan choked as he put down the little porcupine quill bj)X which had started this line of Inquiry. Whatever questions he had asked Judah or Sherrlll these last few days had brought him very quickly back to her. Moved by some Intuitive certainty regarding Spearman, she had come north; she had not thought of peril to herself; she had struggled alone across dangerous ice in storm—a girl brought up as she had been! She had found him— Alan—with life ulraost extinct—upon the beach; she and the Indian woman, Wassaquam had just said—hat? brought him along the shore. How had they managed that, he wondered. Ills throat closed up, and bis eyes filled as he thought of this. In the week during which he had been cared for here, Alan had not seen Constance; but there bad been a peculiar and exciting alteration In Sherrill's manner toward him, he had felt; It was something more than merely liking for him that Sherrill had showed, and Sherrill had «poken of her to hlra as Constance, not, as he had called her always before, "Miss Sherrill," or "my daughter." Alan had had dreams which had seemed Impossible of fulfillment, of dedicating his life and all that he could make of It to her; now SherriU's manner had brought to him something like awe, as of something quite incredible. He turned to the Indian. "Has anything more been heard of Spearman, Judah?" "Only this, Alan; he crossed the straits, the next day upon the ferry there. In Mackinaw City be bought liquor at a bar and took it with him; he asked there about trains Into the northwest He has gone, leaving all he had. What else could he do?" Alan crossed the little cabin and looked out the window over the snowcovered slope, where the bright sun was shining. Snow had covered any tracks that there had been upon the beach where those who bad been in the boat with him had been found dead. He had known that this must be; he had believed them beyond aid when he had tried for the shore to summon help for them and for himself. The other boat which had carried survivors of the wreck, blown farther to the south, bad been able to gain the shore of North Fox Island; and as these men had not been so long exposed before they were brought to shelter, four men lived. Sherrill had told him their names; they were the mate, the assistant engineer, a deckhand and Father Perron, the priest who had been a passenger but who had stayed with the crew till the last Benjamin Corvet bad perished In the wreckage of the cars. As Alan went back to his chair, the Indian watched him and seemed not displeased. "You feel good, now, Alan?" Wassaquam asked. "Almost like myself, Judah." That is right, then. It was thought you would be like that today. A sled is coming soon, now." "We're going to leave here, Judah?" "Yes, Alan." Was he going to see her, then? Bhr cltement stirred him, and he turned to Wassaquam to ask that; but suddenly he hesitated and did not Inquire. Wassaquam brought the macklnaw and cap which Alan had worn on Number 25; he took from the bed the new blankets which bad been furnished by Sherrill. They waited until a farmer appeared driving a team hitched to a low, wide-runnered sled. The Indian settled Alan on the sled, snd they drove off. They traveled south along the shore, rounded into Little Traverse bsy, and the houses of Harbor Point appeared among their pines. The sled proceeded across the edge of the bsy to the little city; even before leaving the bay Ice, Alan saw Constance and her father; they were walking at the water {front aaar tha railway station, aad they came out on the lea as they recognised the occupants of the sled. Alan felt himself alternately weak and roused to strength as he saw her. Their eyes encountered, and hers looked away; a sudden shyness, which sent his heart' leaping, had come over her. He wanted to speak to her, te make some recognition to her of what she had done, bnt he did not dare to trust his voice; and she seemed to understand that. He turned to Sherrill instead. An engine and tender coupled te a single car stood at the railway station. "We're going to Chicago r he inquired of Sherrill. "Not yet Alan—to St Ignace. Father Perron—the priest you know— went to St Ignace as soon as he recovered from his exposure. He sent word to me that he wished to see me at my convenience; I told him that we would go to him as soon as you were able" "He sent no other word than that?" "Onjy that he had a very grave communication to make to us." Alan did not ask more; at mention of Father Perron he had seemed to feel himself once more among the crashing, charging freight cars on the ferry and to see Benjamin Corvet pinned amid the wreckage and speaking into the ear of the priest. It wa< cvt merely a confessional which F-*the» Perron had taken from the lips d the dying man on Number 25; It was an accusation of crime against toother m»u as well; and the confession and accusation both had been made, not onlf te gain forgiveness from God, bur to right terrible wrongs. If the confession left some things unexplained, it did not itck con , Aruoation; the priest had lear*e<) enough to be certain that H was no. hallucination of madness. He had been charged definitely to repeat what bad been told him \o the persons he was now going to meet; so he watched expectantly upon the railway station Father Ferron Went te a Desk and Took Thtrefrom 8ome Notee Whlc* He Had Made, platform at Et. Ignace. A tall, bandsome man whom Father Perron thought must be the Mr^ Sherrill with whom he had communicated appeared upon the car platform; the yoeng mas from Number 25 followed hlra, and the two helped down a youns&and beautl ful girl. > They recognized the priest by bit dress and came toward bim at onee. ^'Mr. Sherrin?" Father Perron inquired. Sherrill assented, taking the priest's hand and Introducing his daughter. "I am glad to see you safe, Mr. Stafford." The priest had turned to Alan. "We have thanks to offer up for that you and 11" "I am his son, then t I thought that must be so." Alan trembled at the priest's sign of confirmation. There was no shock of surprise in this; he had suspected ever since August when Captain Stafford's watch and the wedding ring had so Strangely come to Constance, that he might be Stafford's son. He looked at Constance, as they followed the priest to the motor which was welting te take them to the house of old Fatner Benltot, whose guest Father Perron was; she was very quiet What would that grave statement which Father Perron was to make to them mean to hlra—to Alan? Would further knowledge about that father whom he had uot known,'but whose blood was his and whose name he now must bear, bring pride or shame to him? A bell was tolling somewhere, si they followed fee priest Int* Father Benltot's small hare room w&lch had been prepared for their inter*'ew. Father Perron went to a desk f nd took therefrom some notes whlct he had made. "What I have," be said, tweaking more particularly to Sherrill. "Is the. terrible, not fully coherent statement ef a dying man. It has given me names —also tt bas given me facts. But isolated. It does not give what came before K what came after; therefore. It does not make plain. I hope that as Benjamin Corvefs partner, you ras furnish what I lack." ft© BE CONTINUED.)

"I don't think the men could work fast enough to beat the union of the air with the water. They could try floating the oil with the current, but it would not move fast enough." Spreading oil, mixed with an organic add, just before the cold air and the warm water meet to form a fog, was the process explained. The oil prevents the cold air from meeting the water.—Detroit Free Press.

CL W. DICKINSON ANNOUNCES PLANS * OR NEW BUILDING Establishing new attendance records that may stand for y e a r s — l n c l u ^ ing a wider range of exhibitions than ever before and successful from the viewpoint of diversified entertainment, the seventy-third annual; Michigan State Fair which recently came to an end at Detroit marks the.beginning of a new era of fairs iri this state. The fair accomplished the purpose outlined for it by G. W. Dickinson, secretary- ma nagerj-that of being of some educational value to the farmer, for whom fairs originally were created and for wbom the present fair ad uinistration seeks to do aome everlasting good. • Modern Buildings to Replace Sheds. With the close of the fair which saw the new coliseum building, erected at a cost Qf $300,000, put into use, Mr. Dickinson announced the plans tor a new sheep and swine pavilion to coat, when completed, $80,000. Construction of this Is to be started almost Immediately. The necessity of modern buildings to replace the run down wooden sheds and barns which still are to be found on certain portions of the fair's 169 acres will be recommended by Mr. Dickinson in his annual report to the board of managers. Handicapped by the rail strike and the threatened outcome of the coal situation, the fair horse department established a new record for entries— 355 of the finest draft and light horses in the middle west going on exhibition, 120 more than the previous year. This disproves that the horse has given way to machine power. In the cattle department more than 1000 animals were exhibited. P3cfore the fair got under way, 709 of these animals taxed the capacity of the enlarged cattle barns and several hundred more were brought in by the boys and girls clubs from various sections of Michigan. There were approximately 1280 sheep and 1100 swine on exhibition and about 2100 chickens. Few grain, potato, fruit and flower exhibitions in this section of the country have been as complete as the Michigan Fair's. In the flwver shows, amateur displays predominated. Machinery of 1849 and 1922 Shown. There probably never was asnrmbled such a dlBplay of modern machinery as housed in the machinery hall and Individual tents on the fair grounds. Thousands were drawn into Henry Ford's exhibition which occupied more than 12,000 square feet of space outside. There, the motor king had on display not only all of his own products but farm machinery from as far back as 1849, the year of the original Michigan fair. Besides the broad exhibits by the United States department of agriculture, American Jersey Cattle club and hundreds of independent exhibitors, the dairy building drew visitors with its butter sculpture work. Baking of pies, cakes and instruction in canning, etc., brought many to the domestic department. A federal government exhibit, the Michigan Agricultural college work which embodied lectures, the state department of agriculture's display and exhibitions by counties and individuals made up the show in the Agricultural building. Garment making, Judging of poultry, canning and cooking were other educational features. An important adjunct of the fair was the work carried on by the boys and girls clubs and the Boys State Fair school. All of the boys were quartered in tents in front of the administration building while the girls were housed In a bungalow on the grounds. Clean Entertainments Afforded. The «gg laying and milking contests probably drew more attention than any of the competing novelties at the fair. The Better Babies contest was much bigger,* 47 babies being examined the first day of the fair compared to seven for the corresponding day In 1921. Next year the entire east end of the Woman's building will be devoted to this affair. The Dog show, with more than 350 canine aristocrats competing drew 20,000 visitors in three days and was followed by a three-day cat show equally interesting. The wild life exhibit near the educational building held the Interest of the children. In the educational building were the aero exhibits and aquarium. The Woman's Work department with l u hundreds of fancy articles and pieces of needlework was also a center of Interest. Rubin & Cherry shows afforded clean entertainment, a big program of vaudeville was offered before the grandstand and in the cdliseum building each afternon and evening. There were six days of running races, three days of auto racing and nine nights of fireworks. The air mail se.vlce maintained between Chicago and Detroit and Cleveland and Detroit and the tourist camp where 140 tourists were quartered also proved interesting. The official attendance v u near 171,000 and standi n a rtcojg. __ ROGERS BROS.

He bodded his head at Alan's denial, and, without reply to Alan's demand, he stood listening. Something bent him forward; he straightened; again the something came; again he straightened. Four times Alan counted the motions. Burr was hearing again the four long blasts of distress! But there w a s no noise but the gale. "The four b l a s t s ! " He recalled old Burr's terror outside t h e radio cabin. The old man w a s hearing blasts which were not b l o w n ! H e moved on and took the wheel !He w a s a good wheelsman; the vessel seemed to be steadier on her course and, somehow, to steer easier when the old man steered. H i s Illusions of hearing could do no harm, Alan conside r e d ; they were of concern ouly to Burr and to him. Alan fought to keep his thought all (to h i s duty; they must be now very nearly at the position where the Richardson last had heard the four long b l a s t s ; searching for a ship or for boats, In that snow, w a s almost hopeless. With sight even along the searchlight's beam shortened to a few hunidrcd yards, only accident could bring sNumber 25 up for rescue, only chance «*uld carry the ship where the shouts —or the blasts of distress If the wreck • t i l l floated and had steam—would be heej>(L Tbey were meeting frequent and h e a v y floes, and Alan gave warning of t h e s e by halls to the bridge ; the bridge answered and when possible the steamer avoided the floes; when it could not do that it cut through them. The windrowed Ice beating and crushing under *t*e bows took strange, distorted, glistening shapes. Now another such s'mr =» appeared before them; where the ghn •' dissipated to a bare glow in the swirling scow, he saw a vague shadow. The man moving the searchlight failed to • e e It, for he swung the beam on. The shadow w a s so dim, so ghostly, that Alan sought for it again before he h a i l e d ; he could see nothing now, yet h e w a s surer, somehow, that be had seen. "Something dead ahead, sir I" he shouted back to the bridge. The bridge answered the hall as the searchlight pointed forward again. A gnst carried the snow In a fierce flurry which the light failed to pierce; from the florry suddenly, silently, spar by spar, a shadow emerged—the shadow of a ship. It was a steamer, Alan saw, a long, low-lying old* vessel without lights and without smoke from the funnel slanting op Just forward of the after deckhouse; It rolled In the trough ef the sea. The sides and all the lower works gleamed in ghostly phosphorescence, It w a s refraction of the searchlight beam from the Ice sheathing all the ship, Alan's brain told* him; but the sight of that soundless, shimmering ship materializing from behind the screen of snow struck a tremor through him. , M 8 h ! p r he hailed. "Ahead 1 Dead • h e a d , sir! S h i p f T h e shout of quick commands echoed t o Mm from t h e bridge. Underfoot he could feel a new tumult of the deck; the engines, Instantly stepped, were being set fall speed astern.

H e clung to it yet, a s e o e In a trance, fixed, staring ahead; his arms, stiff, had been holding Number X t o her course. The skipper struck him and beat him away, while the taate tugged at t h e wheel. Burr w a s torn from the wheel now, and he made' no resistance t o the skipper's b l o w s ; but the skipper, in his frenzy, s t r u c t him again and knocked him to the 6eck. A o w l y , steadily, Number 25 w a s re- •pon'Ung to ber helm. T h e bow pointed away, and the beam of the ferry c a m * beside the beam of the silent •; they were very close now, so that t h e searchlight, which had t w n s d t e keep on t h e other vessel, asset above Its shimmering deck and Bfktad only the spars; and, a s the water rate and fell between them, the strip* socked doner. Kpmber 25 shook erttfc an effort; It seemld opposing with ofl the) power o f Its screws some force Cs&ejt*/ drawing It on—opposing with the) teat resistance before giving way. a s t h e water fell again, the ferry so attp and be drawn toward they mounted, side h y a l i a . . • crashed . . . recoiled T h a t second crash oathlng to bold by, tj t h e n V 111 moved b y ; uatern her now the silent steamer vanished In t h e snow. Gongs boomed below; through the new confusion and the cries of men, orders began to become audible. Alan, scrambling to his knees, put an arm under old Burr, half raising him; the form encircled by his arm struggled up. The skipper, who had knocked Burr away from the wheel, Ignored him now. The old man, dragging himself up and holding to Alan, w a s staring with terror at the snow screen behind which the vessel had disappeared. His Ups moved. "It w a s a ship I" he said; he seemed speaking more to himself than to Alan. "Yes," Alao said. "It was a ship; and you thought—n "It wasn't there!" the wheelsman cried. "It's—It's been there all the time all night, and I'd—I'd steered through it ten times, twenty times, every few minutes; and then—that time it w a s a ship J" Alan's excitement grew greater; he seized the old man again. "You thought It was the Mlwaka!" Alan exclaimed. "The Mlwaka! And you tried to steer through It again." "The Mlwaka 1" old Burr's lips reiterated the word. "Yes; yes—the Mlwaka 1" He struggled, writhing with some agony not physical. Alan tried to hold him, but now the old man was beside himself with dismay. He broke away and started aft. The captain's voice recalled Alan to himself, as he was about to follow, and he turned back to the wheelhouse. The second officer, who had gone below to ascertain the damage done to the ferry, came up to report. Two of the compartments, those which had taken the crush of the collision, had flooded instantly; the "bulkheads were holding—only leaking a little, the officer declared. Water w a s coming into a third compartment, that at the stern; the pumps were fighting this water. The shock had sprung seams elsewhere; but If the after compartment did not fill, the pumps might handle the rest. Alan was at the bow again on lookout duty, ordered to listen and to look for the little boats. He gave to that duty all his conscious attention; but through his thought, whether he willed it or not, ran a riotous exultation. As he paced from side to side and hailed and answered hails from the bridge, and while he strained for sight and hearing through the gale-swept snow, the leaping pulse within repeated, "I've found him I I've found him I" Alan held no longer possibility of doubt of old Burr's Identity with Benjamin Corvet, since the old man had made plain to him that he w a s haunted by the Mlwaka. Since that night In the house on Astor street, when Spearman shouted to Alan that name, everything having to do with the secret of Benjamin Corvet's life had led, so far a s Alan could follow it, to the Mlwaka ; all the change, which Sherrill described but could not account for, Alan had laid to t h a t Corvet only could have been so haunted by that ghostly ship, and there had been guilt of some awful sort in the old man's cry. Alan bad found the man who had sent him away to Kansas when he was a child, who had supported him there and then, at last, sent for h i m ; who had disappeared at his coming and left him all his possessions and his heritage of disgrace, who bad paid blackmail to Luke, and who bad sent, Jest, Captain Stafford's watch and the ring which came with It—the wedding ring. Alan pulled his hand from his glove and felt *ln h i s pocket for the little band of gold. What would that mean to him n o w ; what of that w a s he to learn? And, a s he thought of t h a t Constance 8herrill came more Insistently before him. What w a s he to learn for her, for bis friend and Benjamin Corvet's friend, whom he, Uncle Benny, had warned not to care for Henry Spearman, and then had gone away to leave her to marry him? f o r she w a s to marry him, Alan had read. More serious damage than first reported t The pumps certainly must be losing their fight with the water In the port compartment a f t ; for the bow steadily w a s lifting, the stern sinking. The starboard rail too was raised, and the list had become so sharp that water wanted the deck abaft the forecastle t o port And the ferry w a s pointed straight Into the gale n o w ; long ago she had ceased to circle and steam slowly in search for boats; she struggled with all her power against the wind and the seas, a desperate insistence throbbing In the thrusts of the engines; for Number 25 w a s fleeing— fleeing for the western shore. She dared not turn to the nearer eastern shore to expose that shattered stern to the seas. Four bells beat behind Alan; tt w a s two o'clock. Relief should have come long before; but no one came. He was numbed n o w ; ice from the spray crackled upon his clothing when be moved, and It fell in flakes upon the deck. The slark figure on the hrldge was that of the second officer; so the thing which w a s happening below— the thing which w a s sending strange, violent, wanton tremors through the ship w a s serious enough to call the en snake him abandon the bridge at this time! The tremors quite distinct from the steady tremble of the engines and the thudding of the pumps, came again. Alan, feeling them, Jerked up and stamped and beat his arms to regain sensation. Some one stumbled toward him from the cabins now, a short figure In a greHt coat. It was a woman, he saw as she hailed him—the cabin maid. "I'm taking your place!" she shouted to Alan. "You're wanted—every one's wanted on the car deck! The cars—" The gale and her fright stopped her voice as she struggled for speech. "The cars—the cars are loose!" CHAPTER X V I "He Killed Your Father." Alan ran aft along the starboard side, catching at the* rail as the deck tilted; the sounds within the hull and the tremors following each sound came to him more distinctly as he advanced. Taking the shortest way to the car deck, he turned into fhe cabins to reach the passengers' corapanionway. The noises from the cur deck, no longer muffled by the cabins, clanged and resounded In terrible tumult; with the clang and rumble of metal rose shouts and roars of men. To liberate and throw overboard heavily loaded cars from an endangered ship waa so desperate an undertaking and so certain to cost life that men attempted It only in final extremities, when the ship must be lightened at any cost. Alan had never seen the effect of such an attempt, but he had heard of It as the fear which sat always on the hearts of the men who navigate the ferries—the cars loose on a rolling, lurching ship! He was going to that now. The car deck was a pitching, swaying slope; the cars nearest him were still upon their tracks, but they tilted and swayed uglily from side to side; the jacks were gone from under them ; the next cars already were hurled from the rails, their wheel9 sereamlng on the steel deck, clanging and thudding together in their couplings. Alan ran aft between them. All the crew who could be called from deck and engine room and flrehold were strugjeside the cars us the fanruil dipped Into the water; Corvet, again leading the crew, cleared the leader of those raudly charging cars and ran it over the stern. The fore trucks fell and, before the rear trucks reached the edge, the ^tem lifted and caught the car In the middle; it balanced, half over the water, half over the deck. Corvet crouched under the car with a crowbar; Alun and two others went, with him; they worked the car on until the weight of the end over the water tipped it down; the balance broke, and the car tumbled and dived. Corvet, having cleared another hundred tons, leaped back, calling to the crew. They followed him again, unquestioning, obedient. Alun. followed close to hiin. It was not pity which stirred him now for Benjamin Corvet ; nor was it bitterness; but It certainly was not contempt. Of nil the ways in which he hud fancied finding Benjamin Corvet, he had never thought of seeing him like this! * It was, probably, only for a flash ; but the great quality of leadership which he had once possessed, width Sherrill had described to Alan and which had been destroyed by the threat over him, had returned to him In this desperate emergency which he had created. How much or how little of his own condition Corvet understood. Alan could not tell; it was plain only that he comprehended that he had been the cause of the catastrophe, and In his fierce will to repair it he not only disregarded all risk to himself; he also had summoned up from within him and was spending tlie last strength of bin spirit. But he was spending it in a losing fight He got off two more cars; yet the deck only dipped lower, and water overhead; the truck separated them. It bore down upon Alan, holding him motionless and, on the other tide, it crushed upon Corvet's legs. U e turned over, us far as he could, and spoke to AJan, "You have been saving me, so now I tried to save you," t e said siLiply. "What -reason did you have for dok g that? Why have you been keeping by me?" "I'm Alan Conrad of Blue Baplda, Kansas," Aiau cried to him. ''And you're Benjamin Corvet 1 You know me; y o y sent for me 1 Why did you do that?" Corvet made ua reply to this. Alan, peeriug at him **iderneath the truck, could see that his hands were pressed against his face aud that his body shook. Whether this w a s from some new physical pain from the movement of the wreckage, Alan did not know till he lowered his hands after a mordant; ac«. now he did not heed Alao or seem even to be aware of him. "Dear little Connie!" he said aloud "Dear little Connie! She mustn't i marry him—not him ! That must be seen to. What shall I do, what shall 1 do?" Alan worked nearer him. "Wh) mustn't she marry him?" he cried* tc Corvet. "Why? Ben Corvet, tell m e ! Tell me why!" "Who are you?" Corvet so»med oolj with an effort to become conscious of Alan's presence "I'm Alan Conrad, whom you b*ed to take care of. I'm from Blue Rapids. You know about m e ; are you my father, lien Corvet? Are you my father or what—what are yoa to me?" "Your father?" Corvet repeated. "Did ne tell you that? He Miled your father." "Killed him? Killed him, h e * ? " "Of course.

The mate was working as one of the men, and with him w a s Benjamin Corvet. The crew already must have loosened and thrown over the stern three cars from the two tracks on the port side; for there was a space vacant; and a s a car charged into that space and the men threw themselves upon It, Alan leaped with them. It w a s a flat car laden with steel beams. At Corvet's command, the crew ranged themselves beside it with bars. The bow of the ferry rose to some great wave and, with a cry to the men. Corvet pulled the pin. The others thrust with their bars, and the car slid dowu the sloping track; and Corvet. caught by some lashing of the beams. came with i t Alan leaped upon It and. catching Corvet freed him and flung him down to the deck, and dropped with him. A cheer rose a s the car cleared the fantall, dove and disappeared. Alan clambered to his f e e t Corvet already w a s back among the cars again, shouting orders; the mate and the men who had followed him before leaped at his yells. Corvet called to them to throw ropes and chains to bind the toads which were letting g o ; the heavier loads—steel beams, castings, mschinery—snapped their lashings, tipped from their flat cars and thundered down the deck. Tbe cars tipped farther, turned over; others balanced back; It w a s upon their wheels that they charged forward, half riding one another, crashing and demolishing. as the ferry pitched; it was upon their trucks that they tottered and battered from side to side as tbe deck swayed. Now the stern again descended; a line of cars swept for the fantall. Corvet's cry came t e Alan through the screaming of steel and the clangor of destruction. Corvet's o r / seat seen with bavs the fantall. Men, leaping from before the charging cars, got caught In the murderous melee of Iron and steel and wheels; mill's shrill cries carne amid the scream of metal. Alan, tugging at a crate which had struck down a man, felt aid beside him and, turning, he saw the priest whom he had passed on the stairs. The priest was bruised and bloody; this waa not his first effort to aid. Together they lifted an end of the crate; they bent—Alan stepped back, and the priest knelt alone, his lips repeating the prayer for absolution. Screams of men came from behind ; and the priest rose and turned. He saw men caught between two wrecks of cars crushing together; thinre was no moment to reach them; he stood and raised his arms to them, his head thrown back, his voice calling to them, as they died*, the words of absolution. Three more cars at the cost of two lives t h e crew cleared, while the sheathing of ice spread over the steel Inboard, and dissolution of all the cargo became complete. Cut stone and motor parts, chasses and castings, furniture and beams, swept back and forth, while the cars, burst and splintered, became monstrous missiles hurtling forward, sidewlse, aslant, recoiling. Yet men, though scattered singly, tried to stay them by ropes and chains while the water washed higher and higher. Dimly, far away, deafened out by the clangor, the steam whistle of Number 25 was blowing the four long blasts of distress; Alan heard the sound now and then with indifferent wonder. All destruction had come for him to be contained within this car deck; here the ship loosed en Itself all elements of annihilation; who could aid It from without? Alan caught the end of a chain which Corvet flung him and, though he knew it w a s useless, he carried It across from one stanchion to the n e x t Something, sweeping across the deck, caught him and carried him with i t ; it brought him before the coupled line of trucks which hurtled back and forth where the rails of track three had been. He was hurled before them and rolled over; something cold and heavy pinned htm down; and upon him, the car trucks came. B u t before them, something warm and living—a hand and bare arm catching him quickly and pulling at him, tugged him a little farther on. Alan, looking up, s a w Corvet beside him; Corvet unable to move him farther, w a s crouching down there with him. Alan yelled to him to leap, to twist aside and get out of the way; but Corvet only'crouched closer and put his arms over Alan; jthen the wreckage came upon them, driving thenj a p a r t As the movement stopped, Alan still coula see Corvet dimly by the glow of the Incandescent lamps him through the head!" Alan twinged. J^ight of Spearmas came before him as he had first seen Spearman, cowering in Corvet's library in terror at an apparition. "And the bullet hole above the eye I" S* that was the hole made by the shot Spearman fired which had killed Alan's father—which shot him through the head! Alan peered s / Corvet and called to him, "Father Benltot!" Corvet called ID response, not directly In reply to Alan's question, rather in response t* what those questions stirred. "Father Benltot!" Some one, drawn by th% cry, wa» moving wreckage near them. A hand and arm with a torn sleeve showed.^ Alan could not see the rest of the fig* tire, but by the sleeve he recognized that It was the mate. "Who's caught here?" he called down. "Benjamin Corvet of Corvet, Sr>er« rill and Spearman, ship owners of CWfe cago," Corvet's voice replied deeplj, fully; there was authority in It and wonder too—the wonder of a man finding himself In a situation which his recollection cannot explain. "Ben Corvet!" the mate shented tn surprise; he cried It to the othet*, those who had followed Corvet and obeyed him during the hour before ana had not known why. The mate tried to pull the wreckage aside and make his way to Corvet; but the old man stopped him. "The priest, Father Benltot! Send hlra to me. I shall never leavt here; send Father Benltot I" The word was passed without the mate moving away. The mate, after a minute, made no further attempt to free Corvet; that Indeed was useless, and Corvet demanded his right of s a o rament from the priest who came and crouched under the wreckage besldi him. "Father Benltot P * *T am not Father Benltot I am Father Perron of L'Anse." "It was to Father Benltot of St. I g nace I should have gone, Father! . . , The priest got a little closer as Oof vet spoke, and Alan heard only voices now and then through the sounds of clanging metal and the drum of Ice against the hull. The mate and his helpers were working to get him free. They had abandoned all effort to save the ship; it was settling. And with the settling, the movement of th« wreckage imprisoning Alan w a s increasing. This movement made useless the efforts of the mate; it would free Alan of Itself in a moment If It did not kill h i m ; It would free or finish Corvet too. But he, as Alan saw him, was wholly oblivious of that now. . Hlj lips moved quietly, firmly"; and his eyes were fixed steadily on the eyes of th« priest (TO B E CONTINUED.) !^S$*^S<M3««<$«<8*««<S®<S>^^ BIDE DUDLEY A N D NICKNAMES Bide Dudley, author of "Bolivar Brown," says that life to the small boy is Just one nickname after another.

"-75, r ^ \ U / PINCKNEY DISPATCH *•' ON WORKS OUT PLANS MARKETING OF LAMBS Lamb* Being Assembled in Bit Dipping Yard Pens to Be Sent to the Various Markets. (Prepared by t** TTn<t*rt States Department Of Agriculture.) Plans for the more orderly marketing of native lambs at Jersey City and New York city, and the elimination of violent fluctuations in prices of live and dressed lambs at these markets, are to be worked out by a committee representing Live stock commission men, slaughterers, retailers, railroads, stock yard companies at Jersey City and New York, eastern lamb producers and the United States Department of Agriculture. This committee was appointed as a result of the conference called recently by the United States Department of Agriculture, at Jersey City. At this conference members of the trade representing the various Interests engaged in the handling, marketing, slaughtering and retailing of lambs at Jersey City and New York met representatives of sheep and lamb producers and the department. Practically all the factors responsible for the wide fluctuation in lamb prices at Jersey City during certain periods were brought out by full discussion. The conference developed the fact that the lamb problem at Jersey City is a production and marketing problem combined, and that Its solution lies largely in the hands of the producers and slaughterers of native lambs, although live stock commission men and retail meat dealers can assist in remedying the situation. Occupies Key Position, Jersey City occupies a key position In the channel of distribution between the lamb producers and the largest center of consumption. Inasmuch as it Is the finul public concentration point for live lambs destined for New York city, the greatest consuming center for dressed lamb in the United States aud a market that requires a high-grade product. It was shown that ordinarily Jersey City has a reputation of being the highest lamb market in the country, but that during June, July and August it suffers violent price fluctuations because of the big Increase In receipts of native lambs from Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Michigan and New York, without any material decrease in the supply of live and dressed lambs received there and at New York city from Western points. T h e situation Is complicated by the marked irregularity in the volume of the daily receipts during those months and by the inferior quality of the offerings, most of which arrive unsorted and ungraded. It w a s brought out that the poor quality of these lambs is due largely to the failure of producers to use better breeding stock and proper feeding methods and to dock and castrate their lambs at the proper time. The fact that native lambs In so many Instances become Infected in the summer months with diseases of parasitic origin, particularly stomach worms, makes it very Important that they be marketed before the milk fat disappears. These lambs usually are dropped at a period which requires that they be marketed during the months of June, J u l j and August, hence they are a perishable produce from a marketing standpoint. When they reach Jersey Ctty in larger numbers than the demand can absorb, and come In -competition with the high-grade live and dressed Western lambs, prices break sharply and affect the iamb market generally a t all points. Declines in the dressed market often are more drastic than those in the live market. Better Breeding Stock Urged. It was agreed at the conference that producers of native lambs should use better breeding stock; supply ample feed both to the e w e s and lambs for maximum gains tn order to market the lambs before they become infested with parasites, and practice docking and castration. It was agreed, also, that producers in the different areas should reach an understanding which will lead to the lengthening of the breeding and marketing period, and that they should co-operate tn their marketing in such a way as will insure grading and sorting in the country and more orderly movement of lambs to market. In this connection It w a s suggested that the practice which appears to be generally followed in certain states of contracting lambs to country buyers for delivery during stated periods is largely responsible for the Irregularity in the dally receipts at Jersey City. If shippers would consign some of their lambs, particularly the lower grades, to other markets, where there is a better outlet, It would do much towards remedying the undesirable conditions at Jersey City and New York. Feeding stations established in the East as reservoirs from which to feed the market as supplies are needed also were mentioned as a means, for remedying conditions, Producers and commission men recommend thjrt local and Western slaughterers co-operate by endeavoring to reduce the volume of their direct shipments and their shipments of •Western dressed lambs to Jersey City and New York from Middle Western markets at periods when gluts are known to occur, in order to Insure a supply no greater than the demand. It was also suggested that live stock commission men advise their patrons as to when gluts usually occur and when there are good reasons to believe one will occur, explaining fully what happenB when undesirable and unfinished lambs are sent to the Jersey City market. It was recommended that retailers feature lamb in their advertising and selling efforts during ttie period or excessive receipts and give consumers advantage ot recessions in wholesale prices. Any steps taken along this line would encourage consumption and tend to check price fluctuations. "** Personnel of Committee. Although the movement of native lambs to market will soon be completed for the current year, tlie conference was unanimous in its desire to work out plans Immediately whhvh will insure more orderly marketing and less price fluctuation. The following committee was appointed to work to this end with representatives of the United States Department of Agriculture: H. K. Nlckell, United Dressed Beef company, New York; L. S. Joseph, vice president New York Butchers' Dressed Meat company, New York; George Kramer, United Master Butchers of America, New York ; H. D. Wimer, Pennsylvania Railroad company, Philadelphia ; George A. Shannon, vice president New York and New Jersey Live Stock association, Jersey City; J. H. Meek, chief, bureau of markets, Richmond, Va., and R. C. Bonham, president and general manager Jersey City stock yards, Jersey City. FORECASTS INCREASE PROFITS ON ALFALFA Growers in West Receive Predictions Through Agents. Seed Is Largely Grown From Second Crop and if Season Is Late Frost and Harvest Periods Come Close Together. (Prepared by the United Statei Department of Agriculture,) Forecasts of weather conditions for alfalfa harvest are widely distributed In the West, particularly in Oklahoma, where 2,000 or more growers receive the forecasts through the local agents of the extension service of the United States Department of Agriculture. In Utah a rather limited but important frost-warning service for alfalfa-seed growers is in operation. Seed is largely grown from the second crop, and if the season is late the harvest and fall frost periods come close together. As the seed crop increases In value at the rate of about $5 a day for each acre of seed when nearing maturity, the growers let the seed stand as long as possible. When temperatures low enough to cause damage are predicted by the weather bureau it is not unusual for the seed growers to run their cutting machines most of the night. In one section of Utah during a recent harvest season fully 500 acres of seed were cut after receipt of the warnings, at an average saving of $20 to $30 an acre. Two of these growers reported that they saved at least $2,000 as a result of the weather Information furnished by Uncle Sam concerning frost conditions.

Clergyman Who Wanted to Test Vlrtues of the Treadmill Given Full Opportunity. A Britisher tells a story of a member of the clergy who took too large a mouthful on one occasion. He was visiting the county Jail and expiated to a friend who was with aim on the virtues of the treadmill. Warming up with his theme, he declared that he often wished he had one at home to give him the gentle exercise he required, and to remove his friend's skepticism, be asked the warden to give him a turn. Round went the wheel, the clergyman declaring that the movement was delightful; but after two minutes he had had enough and desired the officer to itop the mill. To bis horror the officer answered : "Very sorry, sir, but I can't. It's timed to go 15 minutes and won't stop." Sense that can be converted into tents Is the real article.

They will have opportunity later on, to get their winters coal much more cheaply." Mr. Ford, in company with his son, hdsel, president of the F o r d Motor Company, spent three days along the Detroit, Toledo and Ironton railroad, the m a n u f a c t u r e r ' s p r o p e r t y , and saw hundreds of thousands of tons of coal moving n o r t h w a r d , he said. "There is enough coal above g r o u n d to run the c o u n t r y for a long t i m e , " Mr. Ford said. "The high prices were made because the supply was held back from the murket, but the price is falling Tapidly. We bought 500 cars of coal in Toledo for #5 a ton. T h a t , of course, includes the freight r a t e from the mines to Toledo. At Cincinnatti Edsel a r r a n g e d for a 60-day supply of coal for approximately $3 a ton at the mines. And that is $'2 a ton less than what the brokers paid for it. The brokers have held their coal so long that their profits have been wiped out and now they must unload at any price. Before spring comes you'll see coal sell for a good deal below $3 a ton." Call* It Robbery Mr. Ford declared it was "high time systematic robbery of the American people and manipulation of the country's economic resources is stopped," and renewed his charges t h a t financial interests staged the rail and coal strikes for the purpose of gouging the people. Asked the exnct reason for the closing of his plants, which he ^termed an "industrial strike," the m a n u f a c t u r e r continued: "The plants were closed, f'rrst, out of consideration for our workmen, and second, consideration of all the people in D e t r o i t — a n d I'll be disappointed if the people of the whole United States do not profit by o u r action and the example of our workmen in not buying coal now, when' very shortly, they can buy much more cheaply. Pays Saving Wage " W e pay Ford workmen high wages —a basic minimum of $6 a day, because we want them to own their homes and to bring up their families decently. To do this a w o r k m a n must have a margin of $250 or $300 a year above his living expenses. B u t here these coal nirntes come along and by manipulation of the a m o u n t of coal sent to m a r k e t , force the price up until workmen's margin on which he depends to give his*family all the little comforts which m a k e life worth while, is wiped out. We are p u t in the position of paying our men high wages only to have the men forced to pass the high wages on to the coal robbers. "It's high time that the studied, cnlculated, systematic, wholesale robbery of the American people t h o u g h the juggling, manipulation rind holding back nf the country's economic resources should be stopped. Wall Street to Blame "The coal brokers and that dirty gang of Wall street financiers t h a t hack the brokers are to blame. "There are two vital elements t h a t control coal supply—production and t r a n s p o s i t i o n . "A few weeks ago the c o u n t r y was spread over by n propaganda t h a t there was a coal shortage. During all the weeks of that p r o p a g a n d a , there was so much coal loaded in cars t h a t there was a car shortage for movement of other goods. "Then the Railroad Labor Board thought it would be a good t h i n g to cut wages of shop men way below a living age. Of course, the men struck. They did exactly what it was expected theywould do. T-he men simply did what their leaders told them, they did not think for themselves. And they played right into the hands of the coal gougers—they made perfect the next step in the far-reaching but unseen plans of the coal-pirate bankers of Wall street. They tied up the cars. The gougers knew that, when the right time came they would want coal in a hurry. They had got the coa] cars of the whole country loaded. B u t they must not go to m a r k e t just yet. The time was not just right. Cold weather had not yet set in. People weren't yet beginning to freeze, and willing to p a y any price for coal. The cars, ready to move, at a moment's notice, had to be held back—so the shop men did what was told them—the y s t r u c k — a n d held back the cars. Coa! at $2.00 a Ton "Coal can be mined and p u t in a car with a very decent profit for $2.80 a ton. W h y , some of the big railroads get their coal, on contract, for $2.00 a ton. W h y , then, did H e r b e r t Hoover set a price at first of $3.50 a t o n at the mine, then a little later, add another dollar plus 8 per cent for the broker? Why did Hoover do t h a t ? "The American people are entitled j to know. ' "Then came the interstate commerce commission with service order Vo. 23, for shipment of coal given priority rights by Hoover. ! wonder if the commission didn't see t h a t it was p l a y - ing right into the hands of the coal profiteers. " T h e ordeir regulated nothing. It was used again and again by unscrupulous men to get coal out of the blockade at the mines and in t h e railroad yards under the guise of 'priority'— only to have it thrown on the m a r k e t , the moment it was out of the blockade, and sold at blood prices to the victim who could be gouged the most. Tt was bootleg cool. We were offered , this coal—in 10,000 ton lots—again j and again. We t u r n e d it down—to j have bought it would have been in vi-i !olation of the law—for all coal was supposed to u n d e r the regulation*of the fuel administrator's priorities.

Huntington Park, California, DON'T BE IMPATIENT 4 Many of our citizens are somewhat disappointed because Henry Ford is not going ahead with the Pinckney project as fast as they wish. A letter from a Ford official to Village President C. L. Sigler last week states that it is not the intention of Henry Ford to giv* up the Pinckney project although he has done so with the Reeves water power, but that Mr. Ford has been too busy with larger matters (presumably Muscle Shoals) to devote his personal attention to the smaller water power projects in Michigan and elsewhere. The Phenix Ford plant near Plymouth has been completed since last May, and only awaits the installation of the machinery. It is a fine factory with a small water power on the River Rouge and stands idle awaiting Mr. Ford s personal -attention.

(Prepared by the United State* Department of Agriculture) From a crop that was a novelty and served on the tablets of only a few people to an Industry that h a s produced as many us 17.UOO.000 crates in a year hus been the development of celery production within the memory of many people now Hying. With the rapid increase in the growing of the crop, methods of; culture and marketing have materially changed, new diseases and pests have appeared, and a number nf problems have arisen. Because of th<?se new problems and difficulties, the United States Department of Agriculture has just issued Farmers' Bulletin lL'W, Celery Growing, by \V. It. P.eattie, In which are d'seussed the fundamentals of successful production. Including the best methods of growing and handling the crop. The crop can be grown on .almost any type of soil if enough plant food Is present and w a t e r is supplied during the dry periods, but most of the successful celery-growing enterprises are on low-lying murk, or "hammock" soils. Under present-day conditions it Is not practicable to depend entirely on manure as a fertilizer and large quantities of commercial fertilizer are used, growers In the northeastern part of the country using from 1,400 to 1,- SOO pounds of high-grade plant food to the acre. Florida growers sometimes use as much as three tons to the acre, Buf nor all of the discussion Is deseed Is necessary, * u t recent experiments have shown that four-year-old seed gives greater freedom from disease and In many respects is preferable to fresh seed. However, much depends upon the way the seed has been handled, as great changes of ternp e r a t u r e reduce its vitality. There are approximately 14,tXKJ celery seeds in an ounce and 121.000 to ft),000 plants are needed to set an acre, but not every seed cun be relied upon to produce a good plant. Four ounces of extra good seed is usually enough to provide plants fur an acre, but most growers use eight to twelve ounces. In thr<e to live weeks after the early crop seed is sown the plants are transplanted To t n n s , to greenhouse benches or to cold-frames, and later to the fields. For the Liter or standard crop the plants a r e usually grown in Held beds. For the home garden 20(1 or ;>00 Packing Celery. voted to the commercial growing of celery. There Is a chapter on producing the crop In the home garden, and ronny of the practices that have been developed are applicable no matter on what scale it is grown. Copies of t h e new bulletin may be obtained free by writing to the United S t a t e s D e p a r t m e n t of Agriculture, Washington. W a s Once a Luxury. Celery was once a fall and winter luxury associated with turkey and cranberry sauce, but now it is eaten during the entire year and the production of "early" celery has become a ! t l i ! tests on biam big business. Most of the commercial ' inJ-' iin,l shippin crop Is grown In the region of the (Jreat Lakes, and also in New Jersey and Massachusetts, In Florida and In California. The muck soils of the northwestern section are of the right texture, usually high tn nitrogen but deficient In potash and phosphorus. In addition to muck soils, good crops are grown on level sandy loams, such as a r e found in the vicinity of Rochester, X. Y., in northeastern New Jersey, on Long island, and in many other localities. Commercial fertilizers used as a rule contain about 4 to 7 per sent of nitrogen, 8 per cent of phosphoric acid, and ft or 7 per cent of potash. The mixed fertilizer I* usually followed by one or two side dressings of nitrate nf soda or sulphate of ammonia during the growing period In the field. Where m a n u r e is used It Is usually applied In the fall and plowed under, then returned to the surface in the spring by replowing, or is composted and spread ovpr t h e land after plowing and disked '.nto the soil the same as commercial fertilizer. Most muck soils are easily put In the right condition and require only plowing and about two disking* and two drnggfngs. More dlskings and dragglngs. however, are needed on newly rei laimed mucks. Seed Largely Imported. Most of the celery need is imported, but there are a few producers of highgrade seed In the United States and «ome growers grow their own seed. T h * old ides wan that strictly fresh plants can be started in a cigar box or in u wooden tray In the hou&e, but as a rule if is more eronomicul to buy the small number of plants needed. Special care is needed during the first two weeks after the seed is sown to see that the soil does not dry out and after the plants come up that they are not overwatered. There are many important details to the setting of fj;e plants In the field, but even the commercial fields are set by hand, though the department suggests that there is no reason why a suitable machine for doing the work should not be developed. Celery is a moisture-loving plant, and it is frequently necessary to employ irrigation unless the soil is naturally moist. Three systems are employed : The overhead sprinkler system, the furrow or surface system, and the underground or sublrrigatlon system. It has been found that the first of these Is generally the most adaptable. Since the plants a r e greatly Injured by wilting, successful growers watch the soil moisture conditions closely and apply water before any wilting of the leaves occurs. Some successful growers In the northeastern district drt not use Irrigation, They depend upon having the soil In good condition and well supplied with organic matter, and upon thorough and frequent cultivation. Celery is subject to the attacks of diseases from seedbed to market. Damping-off is the principal danger in the seedbed, but this can usually be controlled satisfactorily by care not to overwater and by giving plenty of ventilation. Plants In the field suffer from early and late blight, bacterial blight, Sclerotinia rot and black-heart. There are rots that attack the product In storage or in transit. Blights spread rapidly during periods of moist and sultry weather, and even during bright weather, when the plants are growing rapidly, spraying is necessary to he on the safe side. The storage blights or rots usually have their origin In field diseases. Control is based upon crop rotation and spraying with bordeaux mixture to prevent them. A reading of the bulletin will give a thorough understanding of the approved methods of control. Results of Experience. The experience of many successful growers-and the results of experimen- • • • • - ' ' • 'ling, harvesting, storare given in considerable detail. Allhough if is nn expensive crop to grow and marker, most growers have paid little attention to cost accounting, and conditions vary so much from year to year ami in different regions that it is difficult to glve figures of real value, T ie pnneipnl items of expense a r c : interest j on investment, plowing and fitting t h e 1 land, drainage and irrigation, t'ertiliz- j lng, growing the plants, setting and | cultivating, spraying, cost of boards or paper used In blanching, labor, selling costs and washing. It Is safe to assume, says the department, that the grower who is not making a profit of from Si'OO to $.'*00 an acre or more is falling short of his goal,*but the only way to know what profit is being made is to keep a careful cost account to balance against the returns. EXCELLENT FEED FOR FOWLS Instead of Plowing Under Surplus Vegetables Store Them Away for Winter Feeding. Instead of plowing up the surphi* vegetables from t«he garden this rail, or of allowing them to get dry and shrivel up in the ground during the hot .weather, It will he found that turnips, lettuce, radishes, etc., which m e not used up during the growing season can well be stored in S cave or in the cellar for feeding to the hens next winter.

I knew he was fighting a foe unseen. Suddenly, as though he had been coming straight up for a solar plexus blow, a swordfish pierced the air." After a battle lasting more than a half hour the swordfish was victorious. from severe burns on feet and body.

After dinner the prime minister said: "Pray smoke your pipe if you like, marshal." The soldier pulled a beautiful case, containing two handsome pipes, from his pocket. As the chief of state commented on their" beauty, he said they were given to him by a group of American artists. "Have you been smoking a pipe for long?" asked Polncare. "My first pipe was on July 18, 1918." "The very day you began the offensive that led to victory?" exclaimed Poincare.

Away back in the Fifth century before the present era, the Athenian philosopher Plato carried on his philosophic teaching in a training park for athletes. This park was owned by a man named Akademos. Hence the park was called Akademla. The word Akademla gradually came to be ap* piled to the place where Plato trained minds, and its use as the designation of Akademos* physical training quarters fell Into the limbo of forgotten things. Thus the word Akademla (or academy, as we have It) took on the meaning of a pluee where minds are taught how to think.

WARNS OF SPREAD OF TB IN FOWLS That tuberculosis in fowls has spread in Michigan to a dangerous degree is the warning issued by the bacteriology department at Michigan Agricultural College. He declares that definite steps must be taken soon to check its increase "and if possible to start wellplanned eradication campaigns. Avian tuberculosis, while not a direct menace to human beings, is undesirable because it causes tremendous losses to poultry breeders through lowering the flock efficiency, and because it is casly transmissable to swine. Due to the insidious and chronic nature of the disease, fowls may harbor the infection for a long time without external manifestations. Affected birds are apt to show emaciation, leg weakness or lameness, pale comb and wattles, lustreless and ruffled feathers and finally, droopiness. Usually the appetite is not deranged, and in fact fowls have been noticed to exhibit a ravenous appetite until shortly before death. Prevention may be had, by the use of sanitary chicken houses 'and runways, laid out in such a way that direct sunlight has access to the floors and grounds. Cleaning and thorough disinfection of chicken houses and feeding utensils once a week is rf;comended. Yards or which chickens hare been removed should be covered with lime and turned over /by plowing before chickens are allowed to return. The practice of keeping old birds from young stock is aLso recommended. ThVmost efficient way of eradicating tuberculosis from a flock, it is held, is to dispose of the entire flock, and make a thorough cleaning of all chicken houses and run ways by careful disinfection. Favorable growing conditions and reasonable care on the part of orchard owners have caused the state yield of apples to be unusually large, but orchards in other sections are also producing great quantities and the result has been a slump in the piarket. Prof. Gardner admits the situatoin is not ideal, yet he says it is bad only by comparison and then not so bad as it might be. He cites the case of one central Michigan grower who recently sold his crop of standard winter apples at a figure that will leave him $1.50 to $2 per barrel clear, over and abo^e all producing, picking and handling costs. This is not a large margin of profit, not so large as it should be, but it means that this year that farm will show a balance on the right side of the ledger. Some will say that this grower has simply been lucky. It wasn't luck. The fruit was sold in open competition with the product from other orchards to an experienced buyer who knows the value of apples and who doesn't pay more than they are worth. It was simply a case of this grower having first-class fruit that had been thoroughly sprayed and well grown. It was sound. It was worth the money, even as the market is today, and the buyer knew it. • The lesson is clear. Well-grown, perfect winter apples always find a market. The more unsettled the general market conditions are, the greater is the relative advantage of the grower with the better grade of fruit. The good grower, the grower with the good apples, is not discouraged. His experience has taught him that good cultural methods pay. The man who has not given his orchard good care and this year finds his product a drug on the market should not be disheartened. Instead he should plan to prune, spray and fertilize in such a manner next season that, regardless of general market conditions, the advantage will be on his side. M. A. C.

FLUSHING EWES INCREASES LAMB YIELD, TESTS REVEAL In hi\ years' work, the United States Department of Agriculture lias found that by extra feeding (commonly called "flushing") at breeding time, its Southdown ewes yielded H'H more lambs per 1,0(1() ewes than Southdown ewes otherwise given the same care and kept under the s.une conditions. Good blue grass, mixed timothy and clover, or soy-bean pasture if available, furnish the most satisfactory and economical means of flushing; but if u drought has prevented good p a s t u r e , a supplementary grain ration has been found to give approximately as good results in increasing the number of lambs as extra good pasture. A ration of oats alone, or equal p a r t s by measu r e of corn, oats, and bran in the jimount of about one-half to three fourths pound per ewe per day, is a good one to use. Flushing increases the size nf the lamb crop in two ways—it puts the ewes in better condition to make sure of their getting in lamb and it increases the proportion of twin lambs. Sheep breeders are constantly striving to increase the proportion of lambs born to the number of ewes in their flocks, but they have in most cases paid little attention to the condition of the ewes at breeding time.

Chicago—Railway strike peace has been virtually declared on approximately one-fourth of the country's 201 class one roads. The announcement was made late last week by the Railroad Shop Crafts general conference committee which had been considering a separate settlement plan drawn up at secret conferences held in Baltimore ten day* before. While the settlement Includes only 30 per cent of the roads of the country, it was believed that every one of the 400,000 men who have been on strike for the past 10 weeks would be back at work shortly. This will be possible through day and night shifts on the peace-making roads, where equipment is in bad shape apd through the possibility of peace on other roads. The men will return to work at the present rates of pay as quickly as the agreements are signed. Each road will sign individually, but all will be the same agreement. Under the terms of the agreement all of the men will be back at work within 30 days or will be given full pay, even if not working. They will receive all of the pension and working privileges they held when they quit work. This in effect, restores seniority rights"^although the word seniority is not mentioned in the agreement. All men now at work will be retained if they are competent, and there will be no discrimination against them. All other matters will be settled by a committee of 12. six from each side, until May 1. 1923. MARKETS U. ft. BUREAU OF M A R K E T * Washington, O.

H waa In late November and while the coal carrier Pontiac, on which he waa serving aa lookout, was in Lake Superior that Alan first heard of Jim Burr. The name spoken among some other names le casual conversation by * member of the crew, stirred and excited him; the name James Burr, occurring on Benjamin Corbet's list, had t o m e opposite it the legend "All disappeared; no trace," and Alan, whose Investigations had accounted for all ethers whom the list contained, bad fceen able regarding Burr only to verify the fact that at the address given no one of this name was to be found. He Questioned the oiler who had mentioned Burr. The man had met Burr one night In Manitowoc with other men, and something about the old man had Impressed both his name *nd Image on him; he knew no more than that At Manitowoc !•—the place from which Captain Stafford's watch had been sent to Constance Sherrill suad where Alan had sought for, but had failed to find, the sender! Had Alan stumbled by chance upon the one whom Benjamin Corvet had been unable to trace? Alan could not leave the Pontiac and •TO at once to Manitowoc to seek Burr; for he waa needed where he was. It was fully a week later and after the Pontiac had been, laden again and had repassed the length of Lake Superior that Alan left the vessel at Sault Ste, Marie and took the train for Manitowoc. The little lake port of Manitowoc, which he reached in the late afternoon, Was tvbulent with the lake season's approaching close. Alan inquired for the seamen's drinking place, where his Informant had met Jim Burr; following the directions he received he made his way along the river bank until he found lt.^ The proprietor knew old Jim Burr— jea. Burr was a wheelsman on Carferry Number 20. He was a lakeman, experienced and capable; that fact aome months before, had served as Introduction for him to the frequenters ef this place. When the ferry was In harbor and his duties left him Idle, Burr came op and waited there, occupying always the same chair. He never drank; he never spoke to others unless they spoke first to him, but than he talked freely about old days an the lakes, about ships which had been lost and about men long dead. Alan decided that there could be no totter place to interview old Burr than mere; he waited therefore, and In the early evening the old man came in. He was a slender but mnscularly fcullt man •Pennine about sixty-five, but he might be considerably younger or older than that. His hair was completely white; his nose waa thin and sensitive; his face was smoothly placid, emotionless, eontented; his eyes were queeriy cloud* ed, deepset and intent Those whose names Alan had found an Corvet's list had been of all ages, jroong and old; but Burr might well bare been a contemporary of Corvet •VeVre From No. 25?» He Asked, to Draw Him Into Conversation. «sj tbe lakes. Alan moved over and a seat beside the old man. ••You're from Number 25 r he asked, f» draw him into conversation, been working on the carrier f ^ t l a c as lookout. She's on her wsy «• tie up at Cleveland, so I left her t g l came on here. Ton don't know wfcatber there's a chance for me to get g place through the winter on Number Ton Old Borr reflected. "One of oar boys been talking of leaving. I don't when be expects to go. "Thank you; 1 will. My name's Conrad—Alan Conrad." He saw no recognition of the name in Burr's reception of It; but he had not expected that None of those on Benjamin Corvet's list had had any knowledge of Alan Conrad or had heard the name before. Alan was silent, watching the old man; Burr, silent too, seemed listening to the conversation which came to them from the tables near by, where men were talking of cargoes, and of ships and of men who worked and sailed upon them. "How long huve you been on the lakes?" Alan inquired. "All my life.* "Do you remember the Miwaka?" Old Burr turned abruptly and studied Alan with a slow scrutiny which seemed to look him through and through; yet while his eyes remained fixed on Aian suddenly they, grew blank. He was not thinkmg now of Alan, but had turned his thoughts within himself. "I remember her—yes. She was lost In '9o," he, said. "In '05," he repeated. "Did you know Benjamiu Corvet?" Alan asked. Old Burr stared at him uncertainly. "I know who he is, of course." "You never met him?" "No." "Did yoa receive a communication from him some time this year—a request to send some things to Miss Constance Sherrill eX Harbor Point?" "I never heard of Miss Constance Sherrill. To send what things?" "Several things—-among them a watch which had belonged to Captain Stafford of the Miwaka." Old Burr got up suddently and stood gazing down at Alan. "A watch of Captain Stafford's?—no," he said agitatedly. "No 1" He moved away and left tbe place; and Alan sprang up and followed him. He was not, It seemed probable to Alan now, the James Burr of Corvet's list; at least Alan could not see how be could be that one. Among the names of the crew of the Miwaka Alan had found that of a Frank Burr, and his inquiries had Informed him that this man was a nephew of the James Burr who had lived near Port Cor bay and had "disappeared" with all his family. Old Burr had not lived at Port Corbay—at least h« claimed not to have lived there; he gave another address and assigned to himself quite different connections. For every member of the crew of the Miwaka there had been a corresponding, but different name upon Corvet's list—the name of a close relative. If old Burr was not related to the Burr on Corvet's list what connection could he have with the Miwaka, and why should Alan's questions have agitated him so? Alan would not lose sight of old Burr until ha had learned the reason for that He followed, as the old man crossed the bridge and turned to his left among the buildings on the river front Burr's figure, vague in the dusk, crossed the railroad yards and made its way to where a huge black bulk, which Aian recognized as the ferry, loomed at the waterside. He disappeared aboard i t Alan, following him, gazed about A long, broad,.black boat the ferry waa, almost four hundred feet to the tall, bluff bow. Alan thrilled a Little at his Inspection of the vessel. He had not seen close at hand before one of these great craft which, throughout the winter, brave ice and storm after all—or nearly all—other lake boats are tied up. He had not meant to apply there when he questioned old Burr about a berth on the ferry; he had used that merely as a means of getting Into conversation with the old man. But now he meant to apply; for it would enable him to find out more about old Burr. No berth on the ferry was vacant yet but one soon would be, and Alan was accepted In lien of the man who was about to leave; his wages would not begin until the other man left but in the meantime he could remain aboard. All that was known definitely about old Burr on tbe ferry, It appeared, was that he had Joined the vessel in the early spring. Before that—they did not know; he might be an old lakeman who, after spending years ashore, had returned to the lakes for a livelihood. The next morning, Alan approached old Burr In tbe crew's quarters and tried to draw him into conversation again about himself; but Burr only stared at htm with his intent and oddly Introspective eyes and would not talk upon this subject A week pawed; Alan, established as a lookout now on Number 25 and carrying on his duties, saw Burr daily and almost every hour; bis watch comdded with Burr's watch at the wheel—they went on duty and were relieved together. Tet better acquaintance did not make the old man more communicative; s score of times Alan attempted to, get him to tall more about himself, hat he evaded Alan's questions and, If Alan persisted, ha avoided him. On deck, one night listening while old Burr talked, excitement suddenly seized, Alan. Burr claimed to be an Englishman born In Liverpool. He had been, be said, a seaman in the British navy; he had bean present at the shelling of Alexandria; later, because of some difficulty, which he glossed over, he had deserted %nd had come to "the States ;M he had been first a deckhand, then the mate of a tramp schooner on the lakes. Alan, gazing at the old man, felt exultation leaping and throbbing within him. This life which old Burr was rehearsing to him as his own, was the actual life of Munro Burkhaiter, one of the men on Corvet's list regarding whom Alan had been able to obtain full information 1 sjaian sped below, when he was relieved from watch, and got out the clippings left by Corvet and the notes of what he himself had learned In hla visits to the homes of these people. His excitement grew greater as he pored over them; he found that he could account with their aid, for all that old Burr had told him. Old Burr's stories were not of course, true; yet neither were they fictitious. Tbey— their incidents, at least—were actualities. They were woven from* the lives of those upon Corvet's list! Alan felt his skin prickling and the blood beating fast in his temples. How could Burr have known these incidents? "Answer Me; It Was the Martha CorvetV Who could he be to know them all? To what man, but one, could all of them be known? Was old Burr . . . Benjamin Corvet? Alan telegraphed that day to Sherrill; but when the message had gone doubt seized him. Benjamin Corvet, when he went away, had tried to leave his place and power among lakemen to Alan; Alan, refusing to accept what Corvet had left until Corvet's reason should be known, had felt obliged also to refuse friendship with the Sherr 11 la When revelation came, would It make possible Alan's acceptance of tbe place Corvet had prepared for him, or would It leave him where he was? Would It bring him nearer to Constance Sherrill, or would it set him forever away from her? CHAPTER XV. A Ghost Ship. Officially, and to chief extent In actuality, navigation now had "closed" for the winter. Further up the harbor, beyond Number 25, glowed the white lanterns marking two vessels moored and "laid up" till spring; another was still In the active process of "laying up." Marine insurance, as regards all ordinary craft had ceased; and the government at sunrise, five days before, had taken the warning lights from the Straits of Mackinaw, from Ile-aux-Galets, from north Manitou, and the Fox islands; and the light at Beaver island had but five nights more to burn. Having no particular duty when the boat was in dock, old Burr had gone toward the steamer "laying up," and now was standing watching with absorption the work going on. There was a tug a little farther along, with steam op and black smoke pouring from Its short funnel. Old Burr observed this boat too and moved up a little nearer. Alan, following the wheelsman, came opposite the stern of the freighter. "They're crossing," the wheelsman said aloud, but more to himself than to Alan, "They're laying her up here," he Jerked his head toward the Stoughton. T h e n they're crossing to Manitowoc on the tug." "What's the matter with that?" Alan cried. Burr drew up his shoulders and ducked his head down as a gust blew. It was cold, very cold Indeed In that wind, but the old man had on a macklnaw and, out on the lake, Alan had seen him on deck costless in weather almost as cold as this. "It's s winter storm," Alan cried. "It's like It that way; but today's the 15th, not the 5th of December P "That's right" Burr argasd. That's right" The reply was sbsent as though Alan had stumbled upon what he was thinking end Burr had no thought yet to wonder at It "And, it's the Stonghton they're laying op, not the—" be stopped and stared at Burr to let him supply the word and, when the old man did not he repeated again—"not the—" "No," Burr agreed again, as though the name had been given. "No." "It was the Martha Corvet you laid op, wasn't i t r AJaa cried qaickiy. J T e l l me—that time on che 0tb~-te *** the Martha Corvet T* Burr Jerked away; Alan caught him again and, with physical strength, detained him. "Wasn't it that?" he demanded. "Answer me; it was the Martha Corvet?" The wheelsman struggled; he seemed suddenly terrified with the terror which, instead of weakening, supplied infuriated strength. He threw Alan off for an Instant and started to flee back toward the ferry; and Alan let him go, only following a few steps to make sure that the wheelsman returned to Number 25. Because of the severe -cold, the watches on the ferry had been shortened. Alan would be relieved from time to time to warm himself, and then he would return to duty again. Old Burr at the wheel would be relieved and. would go on duty at the same hours as Alan himself. Benjamin Corvet! The fancy reiterated ltaelf to him. Could he be mistaken? Was that man, whose eyes turned alternately from the compass to the bow of the ferry as it shifted and rose and fell, the same who had sat in that lonely chair turned toward the fireplace In the bowse on Astor street? Were those hands, which held the steamer to her course, the hands which had written to Alan in secret from the little room off his bedroom and which pasted so carefully the newspaper clippings concealed in the library? Alan faced the wind with mackinaw buttoned about his throat; to make certain his hearing, his ears were unprotected. They numbed frequently, and he drew a hand out of the glove to rub them. The windows to protect the wheelsman had been dropped, as the snow had gathered on the glass; and at intervals, as he glanced buck, he could see old Burr's face as he switched on a dim light to look at the compass. The strange placidity which usually characterized the old man's face had not returned to It since Alan had spoken with him on the dock ; its look was intent and quer»rly drawn. Was old Burr beginning t* remember that he was Benjamin Cor*et? Alan did not believe it could be that; aguin and again he had spoken Corvet's name to him without effect. Yet there must have been times when, if he vas actually Corvet, he had remembered who he was. He must have remembered that when he had written directions to some one to send those things to Constance Sherrill; or, a strange thought had come to Alan, had he written those Instructions himself? This certainly would account for the package having been mailed at Manitowoc and for Alan'B failure to find out by whom it had been mailed. It would account, too, for the unknown handwriting upon the wrapper, if some one on the ferry had addressed the package for the old man. What could have brought back that moment of recollection to Oorvet Alan wondered; the finding of the things which he had sent? What might bring another such moment? Would his seeing tbe Sberrllls again—or Spearman— act to restore blm? For half an hour Alan paced steadily at the bow. The storm was Increasing noticeably In fierceness; the winddriven snowflakes had changed to hard pellets which, like little bullets, cut add stung the face ; and It was growing colder. From a cabin window came the blue flash of the wireless, which had been silent after notifying the shore stations of their departure. It had commenced again; this was unusual. Something still mqre unusual followed at once; the direction of the gale seemed slowly to shift snd with it the wash of the water; instead of the wind and the waves coming from dead ahead now, they moved to the port beam, and Number 25. still pitching with the thrust through the seas, also began to roll. This meant of course, that the steamer had changed its course and was making almost due north. It seemed to Alan to force its engines faster; the deck vibrated more. Alan had not heard the orders for this change and could only speculate as to what it might mean. His relief came after a few minutes more. "Where are we heading?" Alan asked. "Radio," the relief announced. "The H. C. Richardson calling; she's up by the Manitous." "What sort of trouble?" "She's not in trouble; it's another ship." "What s h l p r "No word as to that." Alan, not delaying to question further, went back to the cabins. These stretched aft, behind the bridge, along the upper deck, some score on each side of the ship; they had accommodations for almost a hundred passengers; but on this crossing only a few were occupied. Alan had noticed some half-do2en men—business men, no doubt forced to make the crossing, and one of them, a Catholic priest returning probably to some mission in the north; he had seen no women among them. A little group of passengers were gathered now in the door of or Just outside the wireless cabin, which was one of the row on the starboard side. Stewards stood with them and the cabin maid; within, and bending over the table with the radio instrument wss the operator with the second officer beside him. The violet spark was rasping, and the operator, his receivers strapped over his ears, strained to listen. He got no reply. evidently, and he struck his key again; now, as be listened, be wrote slowly on a {tad. •'Whst Is It?" Alan asked the officer. •The Richsrdson heard four blasts of a steam whistle shout an hour ago when she was opposite the Maniteus. She answered with the whistle snd tamed toward the blasts. She couldn't find any ship." The officer's reply was tntearupted by soma of ih« others. \ Jhsa # t . thai eras a t*m auascW ago . . . tbey beard tbe four leaf again. , . .

"Do they know what ship it is?" "No." "What ship might be there now J* The officer could not answer that He bad known where the Richardson must be; he knew of no other likely to be there at this season. The spray from the waves had frozen upon Alan; ice gleamed and glinted from the rail and from the deck. Alan's shoulders drew up in a spasm. The Richardson, they said, was looking for boats; how long could men live in littlb boats exposed to that gale and cold? He turned back to the others about fhe radio cabin : the glow from within showed him faces as gray as his; it lighted a face on the opposite fide of the door- a face haggard with* dreadful fright Old Burr Jerked about as Alan spoke to him and moved away »Jone; Aian followed him and seizetJ .its una. "What's the matterT" Alan demanded, holding to him. "The four blasts f the wheelsman n'ptjted. "They beard the fpui blasts." He iterated it ooce mora. "Y4»s," Alan urged "Why uot?"

Alan went aft to the tar dsck. Tn« roar and echoing tumult of th* ic* against the hull here drowned all ^tU er sounds. The thirty-two freight cars, In their four long lines, stsod wedged and chained and blocked in £laee; they tipped and tilted, rolled and swayed like the stanchions and sides of th» ship, fixed and secure. Jacks on tbe steel deck under the edges of the cars, kept them from rocking on their trucks. Men paced watchfully between the tracks, observ Ing the movement of the cars. Tht cars creaked and groaned, as they worked a little this way and that; th« men sprang with sledges and drove tbs blocks tight again or took an additional turn upon the Jack a Alan saw old Burr who, on his way to tbe wheelhouse, bsd halted te Us ten. For several minutes the old mas stood motionless;' ht caoe en agals and stopped to listen. "You hear 'em?" B i r r s voice qua* vered In Alan's ear. "You hear 'em?"

"What &.«£ • s j t r "Nothing definite at ulL None of them knew my father; they were only amazed to hnd thai anyone La Chicago had known their names," In her feeling for him, she had laid her hand upon his arm; now her fingers tightened to sudden tenseness. i "What do you mean?" she asked. "Oh, It is not definite yet—not clear 1" She felt the bitterness In his tone. "They have not any of them been able to make it wholly clear to me. It Is like- a record that has been —blurred. These original names must have been written down by my father many years aj?o—many, most of those people, I think—are deed; some are nearly forgotten. The only thing that is fully plain is that in every case my inquiries have led me to those who have lost one, and sometimes more than one relative upon the lakes." Constance thrilled to a vague horror ; It was not anything to which she could give definite reason. His tone quite as much as what he said was Its cause. His experience plainly had been forcing him to bitterness against his father; and he did not know with certainty yet that his father was dead. "You'll lunch with us, of course," she said to Alan, "and then go back with us to Harbor Point. It's a day's Journey around the two bays; but we've a boat here." He assented, and they went down to the water where the white and brown power yacht, with long, graceful lines, lay somnolently in the sunlight A little boat took them out over the shimmering, smooth surface to the ship; sweUs from a faraway freighter swept under the beautiful, burnished craft, causing it to roll lazily as they boarded it. A party of nearly a dozen men and girls with an older woman chaperoning them, lounged under the shade of an awning ovtr the after deck. They greeted her gaily and looked curiously at Alan as she introduced him. "Have you worked on any of our boats?" she asked him, after luncheon had been finished, and the anchor of the ship had been raised. A queer expression came upon his face. "I've thought it best not to do that Miss Sherrill," he replied. She did not know why the next moment she should think of Henry. The yacht was pushing swiftly, smoothly, with hardly a hum from its motors, north along the shore. He watched Intently the rolling, wooded hills and the ragged little bays and Inlets. His work and his investlgatlngs had not brought him to the neighborhood before, but she found that she did not have to name the places to him; be knew them from the charts. "Grand Traverse light" he said to her as a white tower showed upon their left Then, leaving the shore, they pushed out across the wide mouth of the larger bay toward Little Traverse. He grew more silent as they approached It "It is up there, Isn't It" be asked. pointing, "that they hear the Drum?" "Yea; how did you know the place?" "I don't know It exactly; I want you to show me." She pointed out to him the copse, dark, primeval, blue In Its contrast with the lighter green of the trees about it and the glistening white of the shingle and of the more distant sand bluffs. He leaned forward, staring at It until the changed course of the yacht &s it swung about toward the entrance to the bay, obscured i t "Seeing the ships made me feci that I belonged here on the lakes," he reminded her. "I have felt something— not recognition exactly, but something tlmt \v.,j like the beginning of recognition— numy times thin summer when 1 saw cert:tu» pi.n i'.v it's like one of those dreams, you know, Ui which you are conscious of having had the same dream before. I feel that I ought to know this place." Tbey landed only a few hundred yards from the cottage. After bidding good-by to her friends, they went up to it together through the trees. There was n small sun room, rather shut off from the rest of the house, to which she led him. Leaving him there, she ran upstairs to get the things. She halted an instant beside the door, with the box In her hands, before she went back to him, thinking how to prepare him against the significance of these relics of his father. She need not prepare him against the mere fact of his father's death; he had been beginning to believe that already; but thf»se things must have far more meaning for him than merely that She went In and put the box down upon the card tab>e, "The muffler In the box was your father's," she told him. "He had it on the day he disappeared. The other things," her voice choked a little, "are the things he must have had In his pockets. They've been lying In water and sand—" He gazed at her. ul understand," he said after an Instant "You mean that they prove his death." She assented gently, without speaking. As he approached the box, she drew back from It and slipped away into the next room. She walked up and down there, pressing her hands together. He must be looking at the things now, unrolling the muffler. . . . What weald he be feeling as he saw them? Would he be glad, with that same gladness which had mingled with her own sorrow over Uncle Benny, that his father was gone—gone from his guilt and his fear and his disgrace? Or would he resent that death which thus left everything unexplained to him? He would be looking at the ring. That, at least, must bring more Joy than gTlef to him. He would recognize that It must be his mother's wedding ring; if It told him that his mother must be dead, it would tell him that she had been married, or had believed that she was married I Suddenly she heard him calling her. "Miss Sherrill 1" his voice had a sharp thrill of excitement. She hurried toward the sun room. She could see him through the doorway, bending over the card table with the things spread out upon its top in front of him. "Yea." He straightened; he was very pale. "Would coins that my father had In his pocket ail ha\re been more than twenty years old?" She ran and bent beside him over the coins. "Twenty years I" she repeated. She was making out the dates of the coins now herself; the markings were eroded, nearly goue In some instances, but In every case enough remained to make plain the date. "Elghteen-ninety — 1894 — 1S89," she made them out Her voice hushed queerly. "What does it mean?" she whispered. He turned over and re-examined the articles with hands suddenly steadying. "There are two sets of things here," he concluded. "The muffler and paper of directions—they belonged to my father. The other things —It Isn't six mouths or less than six months that they've lain In sand and water to become worn tike this; it's twenty years. My father can't have had these things; they were somewhere else, or someone else had them. He wrote his directions to that person— after June twelfth, he said, so It was before June twelfth he wrote It; but we can't tell how long before. It might have beep In February, when he disappeared; It might have been any time after that But if the directions were written BO long ago, why weren't the things sent to you before this? Didn't the person have the things then? Did we have to wait to get them? Or—-was it the instructions to send them that he didn't have? Or, if he had the instructions, was be waiting to receive word when they were to be sent? You thought these things proved ray father was dead. I think they prove he Is alive I Oh, we must think this outl" He paced up and down the room; she sank Into a chair, watching blm. "The first thing that we must do," he said suddenly, "Is to find out about the watch. What Is the 'phone number of the telegraph officer She told him, and he went out to the telephone; she sprang up to follow him, but checked herself and merely waited until he came back. 'Tve wired to Buffalo," he announced. "The Merchants' exchange, If It Is still in existence, must have a record of the presentation of the watch." "Then Joull stay here with us until an answer comes?" "If we get a reply by tomorrow morning ; HI wait till then. If not I'll ask you to forward it to me. I must see about the trains and get back to Frankfort. I can cross by boat from there to Manitowoc—that will be quickest. We must begin there, by trying to find out who sent the package " She helped him put the muffler and the other articles Into the box; she noticed that the wedding ring was no longer with them. He had taken that, then; it had meant to him all that she had known It must mean. . . . In the morning she was up very early; hut Alan, the servants told her, had risen before she had and had gone out. The morning, after the cool northem night, was chill. She slipped a sweater on and went out on the veranda, looking about for him. An Iridescent haze shrouded the hills nnd the bay; In It she heard a ship's bell strike twice; then another struck twice—then another—and another—and another. The haze thinned as the sun prew warmer, showing the placid writer of the bay on which the ships stood double. She saw Alan returning, and knowing from the direction from which he came that he must have been to the telegraph office, she ran to meet him. "Was there an answer?" she inquired eagerly. He took a yellow telegraph sheet "What is it, AlanT she asked. "What Is It about the Mlwaka? You said you'd found some reference to It In Uncle Benny's house. What was it? What did you find there?" "The man—" Alan swallowed and Bteadled himself and repeated—"the man I met In the house that night mentioned i t He seemed to think I was a ghost that had haunted Mr. Corvet— the ghost from the Mlwaka; at least he shouted out to me that I couldn't save the Mlwaka!" "Save the Mlwaka 1 What do you moan, Alan? The Mlwaka was lost with all her people—officers and crew—no one knows how or where!" "All except the one for whom the Drum didn't beat!" "What's that?" Blood pricked In her cheeks. "What do you mean, Alan?" "I don't know yet; but I think I'll soon find out." "No; you can tell me more now, Alan. Surely you can. I must know. I have the right to know. Yesterday, even before you found out about this, you- knew things you weren't telling me—things about the people you'd been seeing. They'd all lost people on the lakes, you said; but you found out more than that." "They'd all lost people on the Mlwaka !" he said. "All who could tell me where their people were lost; a -Save the Mlwaka! What Mean, Alan?" Do You from his pocket nnd held It for her to^-netter for you—for every one—to be read. "Watch presented Captain Caleb Stafford, master of propeller freighter Marvin Halch for rescue of crew and passengers of sinking steamer Winnebago off Long point, Lake Erie." She was breathing quickly In her excitement "Caleb Stafford!" she exclaimed. "Why. that was Captain Stafford of Stafford and Ramsdell! They owned* the Mlwaka!" "Yes." Alan said. ^-^ A great change hall come o>er him since last night; he^wa* under ^motion so strong that he deemed scarcely to dare speak lest It master hlm-^-a leaping, exultant impulse U was, which he fought to keep down* few were like Jo Papo we saw yesterday, who knew only the year his father was lost; but the time always was the time that the Mlwaka disappeared!" "Disappeared !" she repeated. Her veins were pricking cold. What did he know, what could any one know of the Mlwaka, the ship of which nothing ever was heard except the beating of the Indian Drum? She tried to make him say more; but he looked away now down to the lake. "The Chippewa must have come In early this morning," he said. "She's lying in the harbor; I saw her on my way to the telegraph office. If Mr. Spearman has come back with her, tell him I'm sorry I can't wait to see him." "When are you going?" "Now." She offered to drive him to Petoskey, but he already had arranged for a man to take him to the train. She went to her room after he was gone and spread out again on her bed the watch—-now the watch of Captain Stafford of the Mlwaka—with thi« knife and coins of more than twenty years ago which came with It. The meaning of them now was all changed; she felt that; but what the new meaning might be could not yet come to her. Something of It had come to Alan : that undoubtedly, was what had so greatly stirred him; but she could not yet reassemble her Ideas. Yet a few facts had become plain. A maid came to say that Mr. Spearman had come up from his boat for breakfast with her and was downstairs. She went down to find Henry lounging in one of the great wicker chairs in the living room. He arose and came toward her quickly; but she halted before he could seize her. "What's wrong, dear?" "Alan Conrad has been here, Henry." "He has? How was that?" She told him while he watched her intenily. "He wired to Buffalo about the watch. He got a reply which he brought to me half an hour ago." "Yes?" "The watch belonged to Captain Stafford who was lost with the Mlwaka, Henry." He made ne reply ; but waited. "You may not have known that it was his; I mean, vou may not have known that It was he who rescued the people of the Winnebago, hut you must have known that Uncle Benny didn't." "Yes; I knew that, Connie," he answerd evenly. "Then why did you let me think the watch was his and that he must be— dead?" "That's all's the matter? You had thought he was dead. I believed It was lieve that." She drew a little away from blm, with hands clasped behind her back, gazing intently at him. "There was sotne writing found in Uncle Benny's house in Astor street—a list of names of relatives of people who had lost their lives upon the lake. Wassaquam knew where those things were. Alan says they were given to hUn in your presence. Why didn't you tell me about that?" He straightened as If with anger. "Why should I? Because be thought that I should? What did he tell you about those lists?" « "Nothing—except that his father had kept them very secretly; but he's found trot they were names of people who had relatives on the Mlwaka I" "What?" Recalling how her blood had run when Alan had told her that Henry's whiteness and the following suffusion of his face did not surprise ber. "I told that fellow long ago not to Start stirring these matters up about Ben Corvet and particularly I told him that he was not to bring any of It to you. It's not—a thing that a man like Ben covered up for twenty years till it drove him crazy is sure not to be a thing for a girl to know. Let It uJone, I tell you." She stood flushed and perplexed, gazing at him. She never had seen him under strouger emotion, "You misunderstood me once, Connie!" he appealed. "You'll understand me now!" She had been thinking about that injustice she had done him in her thought—about his chivalry to his partner and former benefactor, when Uncle Benny was still keeping his place among men. Was Henry now moved. In a way which she could not understand, by some other obligation to the man who long ago had aided him? Had Henry hazarded more than he had told her of the nature of the thing hidden which, If she could guest it, would justify what he said? She had made Alan promise to write her, if he was not to return, regarding what he learned; and a letter came to her on the fourth day from him In Manitowoc. The post office employees had no recollection* he said, of the person who had malied the package; It simply had been dropped by some one into the receptacle for mailing packages of that sort. Alan, however, was continuing his inquiries. She wrote to him In reply; in lack! of anything more important to tell him, she related some of her activities and Inquired about his. After she had written him thus twice, he replied, describing his life on the boats pleasantly and humorously; then, though she Immediately replied, she did not hear from him again. A new Idea had seized Constance, Captain Caleb Stafford was named among the lost, of course; with him had perished his son, a boy of three. That was all that was said, and all that was to be learned of him, the boy. Alan had been three then. Thjs wac wild, crazy speculation. The ship was lost with all hands; only tfee Drum, believed in by the superstitious and the most Ignorant, denied that. The Drum said that one soul had been saved. How could a child of three have been saved when strong men, te the last one, had perished? And, if he had been saved, he was Stafford's son. Why should Uncle Benny have sent him away and cared for him and then sent for him and, himself disappear* lng, leave all he bad to—Stafford's son? Or was he Stafford's son? Hei thought went back to the thtrvfs which had been sent—the things froiu a man's pockets with a wedding ringamong them. She had believed that the ring cleared the mother's name; might it In reality only more Involve It? Why had It come back like this to the man by whom, perhaps, It had been given? Henry's words came again and again to Constance: "It's a queer concern you've got for Sen. Leave it alone, I tell you!" He knew then something about Uncle Benny which might have brought on some terrlblt thing which Henry did not know bill might guess? Constance went weaW within. Un^le Benny's wife had left him, she remembered. Was It better, after »11. to "leave it alone?" A telegraph envelope addressed te her father was on the table In the ha!L A servant told her the message had coine an hour before, mirl tlmt he hfid telephoned to Mr. SherrlM's nflice. bill Mr. Sherrill was not in. There wns no reason for her thinking Jluit the messr. ise might tie from Ahm evcopt Mi presence In her thoughts, hut she ^enl at once to the telephone nt^l cai'ed her father, He was in nrm, and h« j directs! her to open the message and read it to him. "Have some one." she rend aloud j she choked In her excitement at what came next—"Have some one who knew Mr. Corvet well enough to recog. nize him. even If greatly changed, meet Curferry Number 25 Manitowoc Wednesday this week. Alan Conrad." Her heart was heating fast. "Are you there?" she said Into the phona. "Yes." "Whom shall you send?" There was an Instant's silence. "I shall go myself," her father aaid. She hung up the receiver. Had Aiftn found Uncle Benny? He had found, apparently, some one whose resemblance to the picture she had showed him was marked enough to mnke him believe that person might be Henjaniln Corvet; or he had heard of some one who, from the account he had received, he thought might be. She read again the words of the telegram . . . "even if greatly changed!" and she felt startling and terrifying warning in that phrase. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Oldest United States Post Office.

Gaudy Sleeves in New Styles One of the first notes from the Paris.] and t r a n s p a r e n t sleeve. Another one opening s a y s : "No g r e a t change is h a s m a d e a cap over t h e top uf the shown, except t h a t sleeves a r e more gorgeous than ever a n d m o r e varied." a r m , or, rather, the shoulder, and has used for this a two-inch woven ribhuu Well, t h a t is just a s we would h a v e ] placed in a series of strips. Still unit, a s s e r t s a fashion w r i t e r in the New York Times. We h a v e grown accustomed to petting and p a m p e r i n g our sleeves as though they were the favorite twins o t h e r sleeve of ribbon—this for a more dressy sort of frock—has strips of picot-edged ribbon iu a narrow width, extending from the elbow away into t h e world in careless lengths. Ingenuity goes a long way in the usiug of ribbon for the beautifying of sleeves. And it is possible for anyune to design a dress t h a t will m a k e use of some valued bit of ribbon to t h e glorification of the whole gown. T h e s e old-fushioned ideas are coming into general usage again, especially with relation to sleeves, for with the evident necessity for making the sleeve a picturesque quantity, all sorts of modes and m a n n e r s must be employed in order to lift the modern sleeve out of the class of the usual. Ruffles of Soft Chiffon. Another sleeve is m a d e of a series of ruffles of soft chiffon. It is a youthful sleeve and one that, doubtless, will find g r e a t favor among the younger girls still wanting to look their fluffiest selves. At any r a t e , it is a sleeve t h a t any mother will love to design for h e r d a u g h t e r ' s p a r t y frock. It carries with It so much of charm and grace. And it Is evident that, with a sleeve of this fluffy character, not a great deal in the way of other t r i m m i n g is needed. T h e r e might be a few ruffles to match on the skirt, but a more attractive idea would be to keep the frock very straight and plain and full, with the low hanging bertha, and the girdle of brightly colored ribbon roses. T h e n let the ruffles on the sleeves in their g r a d u a t e d widths count for everything all by themselves. They will be much more effective t h a t way and will have a chance, without interruption of design, to display the really lovely lines which they establish for the whole costume. An Interesting sleeve finish is suggested for a dinner dress. T h e dress itself is one of those drafted affairs with the lines of t h e fabric m a d e gracefully to follow those of the figure Itself. Then a shaped piece of silver and gold brocade is a r r a n g e d for a low-cut collar and over the arm is hung a strip of the same trimming to make the armhole decoration. By this little trick, that sometimes ugly line of the sleeveless gown is done away with altogether and the arm is still left to shine in uninterrupted splendor. There are any number of a d a p t a t i o n s of this idea to he seen on the newer gowns, and while the combination of black satin with sparkling silver trimming Is one that has found much favor, there are other color combinations which can be worked out most successfully In this way. Among the Handsomer Gowns. White organdie and cream batiste, combined with lace, huve suddenly become very popular among the handsomer gowns for late s u m m e r wear. This may be an Indication, too, that a style of this sort will carry over into winter. But on the street and in all the s m a r t lunching places these days one is very apt to see a black crepe or Sleeve of Lace Cut in Circular Piece ( T o p ) , Having Turned-Back Cuff of W h i t e Moire.

We know now t h a t unless we pay special attention to t h a t portion of our costume we a r e lost us f a r as style is concerned. And we h a v e realized the fact that beautiful sleeves cun make a gown as no other detail can. A trifle of experimentation will show t h a t the design of one's sleeves can be carried into the line of the gown in such a way that the sleeves become and remain the actual center of attraction and style. And now that we h a v e the sanction of Paris for going a h e a d with our sleeve achievements, we should manage to do some ext r a o r d i n a r i l y lovely things during the coming season. We have spent a season in experimentation, as it were, and now, after our months of education, we are launched upon a career of actual artistic accomplishment. T h e style declaration that there is no trimming can he accepted and believed until we consider the sleeves of the day. For all the decoration t h a t o n c e w a s spread over a far broader surface has now been concentrated within the area of the sleeve. We find there n<«t a mere suggestion of trimming, but an actual mass of it. T h e fact Is that often the sleeve Is nothing but trimming, and so greedy is it of the place it has come to hold that it succeeds In preventing decoration in any other place. We find embroidered sleeves, brocaded sleeves, latticeworked sleeves, puffed sleeves, plain sleeves. In fact, there is no end to the s u r p r i s e s that a r e s p r u n g upon us at every turn of fashion's way. Now there a r e certain questions about sleeves which might as well be settled at once. First, sleeves will be long. They will still he full, though not quite so extraordinarily so as they h a v e been. Some of them will be fitted, even from the elbow to the wrist. In evening dresses there will still he only suggestions of sleeves or indications t h a t sleeves might he there in t h a t p a r t i c u l a r space if the thing had RO happened. For coats and capes t h e r e will he those voluminous crosses b e t w e e n sleeves and capes which m a k e the w r a p s look as spacious and comfortable as can be. All of these things will be so, nrid then there will be so m a n y exceptions that the rules will seem utterly superfluous. I Some of the Newer Sleeves. j A study of some of the n e w e r sleeves Is a good approach to the fall ' costumes, for, as h;is been said, they J will set the pace. And, if one's fomi- ( dation fashion knowledge has much to I do with sleeves; then the path to general s m a r t n e s s of attire will he a sim- . pie one indeed.

T h e r e are any n u m h e r of ways of using ribbons In these newer and more e l a b o r a t e sleeves. They fairly blossom forth In this particular, for al! t h e Intensely colored ribbons and all those with metal t h r e a d s and brilliant designs can, In some way, be worked Into the design of a gown so that thla sort of trimming will look like some Intricately executed placement of embroidery. (tne designer has used many rows of t h a t n a r r o w - p a t t e r n e d grosgrain ribbon to form a band on the end of a full T h e r e Is the frilled and plaited organdie cuff arranged In three stiff tiers and held snugly around the wrist with a bluck velvet ribbon bond and «ut steel buckle. This Is a sparkling cuff trimming, If you please, but It is only illustrative of the lengths to which the designers a r e going In their effort to supply a touch of daintiness to some of the n e w e r black frocks. Then there is a circular cuff, flaring back and away from the hand, being confined by only the simplest and narrowest sort of a band, closely held about the wrist.

BABY CONTEST AT COUNTY FAIR Some time ago the County Fair Association asked the chairman of the County Red Cross chapter to conducts fi baby contest at the Livingston fair, offering to give three prizes for the most perfect baby. A meeting of the executive committee was called. Dr. K. B. Pierce superintendent of the State Tuberculosis Sanitorium, who is director of public health work in the county and Mrs. W. C. Huntington, cnairman of the Christmas seal sale, were asked to attend. A decision was made to hold this contest, but it was decided that two prizes were sufficient. A contest was held two afternoons! during the fair. Doctors were present to give the physical examination with nurses to assist, lay members acting as clerks. Standard score cards issued by the American Medical Association were used. Nineteen babies were entered. Highest score was 99.3 points, won by Catherine Virginia O' Leary, daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Dennis OT.cary, Howell. Second score 99, Frances Jean Hardy, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Hardy, Oceola townshrji. Arrangements were also made for a nursery where babies would be cared' for while mothers were attending the fair. This was under the supervision of the executive committee of the Red Cross with ladies from several churches assisting, thus providing a new corn-' mittee for each day, and depriving no one from attending the fair. The Boys' and Girls1 Club exhibits in no small way were u real part of the State Fair at Detroit. Four calves six pigs and five sheep constituted the county quota there. The following were the boys and girls W1K> had their projects there and received the following prizes: William Gilkes, Howell, Sr. yearling Holstein heifer, 1st prizes, $12.00. Carlyle Hoover, Howell, Sr. bull calf, Holstein, 2nd prize, $12.00. Rhodora Crandall, Howell, Jr. calf, Holstein, 2nd prize, $10.00. Hope Carr, Fowlerville; Rhodora Crandall, Howell; William Gilkes and Carlyle Hoover, Howell, Club Exhibit, 2nd prize, $15.00. Glenn Gibson, Fowlerville, Jr. boar pig, Duroc Jersey, 2nd prize, $8.00. Wayne and Glenn Gibson, Fowlerville, Club Exhibit, three sows and one boar, 2nd prize, $12.30. Marion McDonald, Pinckney, Chester White Jr. Sow pig, special prize, $5.00; 2nd prize, $8.00. Glenn Armstrong, Fowlerville, Shropshire Ewe, 1st and 2nd prize, $14.00. Willis Armstrong, Fowlerville, Ewe Lamb, 2nd prize, $6.00. Hubert Sober, Fowlerville, Ram Lamb, 2nd prize, $6.00 Club Exhibit of above boys, 1st prize, $8.00. The total money won by the exhibitors amounts to $126.50, which surely speaks well for the first years efforts. Five first prize ribbons, seven seconds and one third prize were the ribbons won. In fact, every exhibitor drew some money. If this club work had been started in the spring so as to have given club members time to do more fitting, more animals could have been exhibited. Oakland County has invited our boys and girls to exhibit at their fair this week at Milford, and County Agent C. L.' Bolander is moving the same stock there. They are realizing the value of club work and are putting up almost as much money as the State Fair for premiums. The big success of the club work in the County lias been made possible to a great extent by the splendid cooperation of the following banks so far: First State and Savings Bank, Howell; Mcpherson State Bank, Howell; First National Bank, Howell; First State Bank, Brighton. Cooperation of this kind is what every community needs, and the value is two-fold, helping to give the boy and girl of today a start and making better citizens of tomorrow. The general stock judging team were Ward Stowe, Fowlerville; Glenn Armstrong, Fowlerville; and Albert Holdforth, Fenton. The dairy judging team were Harold Lawson, Robert Borden and Spencer Worjhington, all of Howell. These boys all did remarkably well considering the short time they were coached. Ward Andrews accompanied the dairy team and considerable credit is due him for the time he has spent with the boys in preparing them for the contest. The girls' canning team, who represented Livingston County, were Ruth Watters and Helen Sager, accompanied by their club lender, Gladys Wilson, nil of Parkers Corners. This team marie a fine showing at the State Fair and much credit is due their leader. DITCH BLAST ARRANGEMENTS READY Spollad Har "Makeup."

This is the outstanding feature of the September report released today by John A. Doelle, Commissioner of Agriculture and Verne H. Church, Agricultural Statistician. As deterioration is usual in most years during August, notwithstanding this decilne, the prospects are still up to or above the ten year average for all crops except sugar beets and sorghum cane for sirup which arc one and two points, respectively, below. Fruit of all kinds is abundant and has ripened earlier than usual. The market is stagnant and some fruit does not bring enough to cover the freight charges. CLOSED AUTOMOBILE—For hire.

(In Pan-American Union Bulletin.) H E N t h e possessions taken from Germany during t h e w a r were divided Great Britain, Australia, a n d New Zealand were given " l u n d a t e for the administration of N a u r u Island, a dot of land, 12 miles in circumference Just south of t h e equator, a n d between the Marshall and Solomon Islands groups. N a u r u would be a little over 2,000 miles from J a v a . T h i s diminutive Island h a s 5,000 -acres a n d Is famous for Its valuable deposits of t h e highest grade of p h o s p h a t e of lime—a magic soil fertilizer. T h i r t y years ago Nauru w a s an island n o one thought much about, as no one realized the Immense wealth that lay d e e p and snug among t h e coral pinnacles of the low-set hills in the ceuter of t h e Island. American w h a l e r s would call In thos*e days for w a t e r and pumpkins, and t h e natives then got the reputation of being HO hospitable that the Island was called Pleasant. After American whaling activities ceased in t h e South Pacific, few ships over touched at Nauru. T h e n came the G e r m a n s , who took possession of. t h e island and named it Nauru. But even t h e Germai.s were not a w a r e of the g r e a t value of the island. One day a British vessel put In for supplies of water. On board w a s an e x p e r t in phosphate a n d guano. This m a n , roaming about the hills, soon formed an opinion of N a u r u which w a s t o change it from an island of no consequence into a veritable treasure house of one of the most needed accessories, assuring the h a r v e s t s of t h e a g r i c u l t u r a l world. T o m a k e a long s t o r y a short one, in two years' time a vast industry was organized with every modern appliance of machinery a n d every comfort and convenience for a large scientific and clerical staff, and h u n d r e d s of Chinese and natives from o t h e r South t'aclflc islands were busily engaged digging and blasting out in t h o u s a n d s of tons every month the precious phosphate. Ships came from e v e r y country in t h e world to carry rv.'iiy the wonderful fertilizer; thous a n d s of tons a month grew to hund r e d s of thousands of tons a year, and still the hills of t h e tiny Island look a s if they h a v e only been scratched. Both British and German e x p e r t s have e s t i m a t e d there are nearly fifty million t o n s of the phosphate", and that many g e n e r a t i o n s will come and go before N a u r u is exhausted. T h e bounteousness of N a t u r e is s h o w n In the composition of this magic p r o d u c t — p h o s p h a t e of lime. For years —It is Impossible to tell how many— countless numbers of sea birds were a t t r a c t e d to this tiny Island, w h e r e n e i t h e r m a n nor animal disturbed t h e m , a n d where they found the supera b u n d a n c e of fish usual to deep-sea c o r a l Islands. T h e birds subsisted on fish and created vast deposits of guano, rich In phosphate, which, mingling w i t h the coral rock rich In lime, were t r a n s f o r m e d by n a t u r a l processes, agi s t e d by periodic copious rains, altern a t e droughts, and occasional a n d complete submergings of the island by t h e sea, into t h a t potent, chemical factor phosphate of lime. Today scarcely a bird is to be seen on t h e i s l a n d ; but a rich t r e a s u r e has been handed over to the use and ingen :ity of men. Though the i .land w a s German owned, it was British enterprise t h a t began t h e phosphate industry, and until the w a r t h e utmost harmony existed between the British and German employees and t h e G e r m a n administration. T h i s phosphate Industry comprises a settlement having many miles of electric and steam trains, telephones, electric light, fresh and salt water systems, refrigerators, and a fine sewerage system. T h e r e a r e hospitals for the whites, the Chinese, a n d t h e natives under European doctors and nurses. There a r e great public laundries, excellent houses for married and single workers, a public hall, a t t r a c t i v e recreation and reading rooms, and well laid out grounds for outdoor sports. T h e r e is, moreover, one of the most powerful wireless installations In the world, a n d ships a r e every week bringing news and supplies. N a u r u island, although only 331-3 miles south of the equator, Is one of the healthiest spots on earth, m a l a r i a and other tropical ailments being unknown, and the white community is one of the jolliest and happiest of the ishind world. Of special interest a r c the natives of Nauru, some 2,(XKJ in all, ruled by a native king—a very r e m a r k a b l e man. When in 11)14 the British took over the administration of this island from the Germans, their first care was to make the condition of the natives more satisfactory than it had been ; though they had never been exploited by t h e phosp h a t e industry. U n d e r their king, Oweida by name, they accepted a government having laws partly British and partly native or tribal. They were encouraged to clean u p the island, improve t h e coconut plantations, and to work for pood wages in the phosphate fields. This they h a v e done with the result t h a t they are a happy and contented race, enjoying perfect health and having every comfort a native people can desire. Within t h e last three months British administration h a s given place to Australian, but the same excellent regime Is being maintained,. T h e N a u r u a n s a r e noted for their good manners, the smallest child bowing to a stranger with t h e utmost grace and wishing, in a greeting, every blessing that one kind heart can desire for another. T h e Nauru women are accounted by many t r a v e l e r s t h e handsomest, best-figured women in t h e Pacific, and certainly In their festive a n d dance dresses they show a distinction in t a s t e and designs which is truly remarkable. T h e i r dances a r e clever and not at all monotonous, while t^ialr singing a n d chanting have real melody. Every native m a n a n d hoy, and a good many young women, possess bicycles, a n d most p i c t u r e s q u e cyclists they m a k e in their coconut fiber ridisv or loin clothes. Practically every house h a s a sewing machine, which is put t o many uses, b u t now t h a t t h e native dress is -going out of fashion— which is a pity—shirt a n d dressmaking have become a part of t h e household duties of t h e w o m e n ; indeed, t h e men a r e often found to be quite expert tailors. T h e national sport of t h e N a u r u a n s is frigate-bird capturing. T h e greatest ambition of a native is to own more of these mopy-looking birds than any other native of his village. The tribal wealth of a native is estimated by t h e number of well-filled roosts of frigate birds t h a t he can m a i n t a i n ; and maintenance, it may be added, means much fishing to feed the birds. These birds, uninteresting and always a p p a r e n t l y asleep on t h e roost, a r e capable of an almost h u m a n cunning in t h e m a n n e r in which, as decoys, they can be trained to, capture other birds. On festival days, whole villages meet to contest supremacy in their decoy birds. T h e king presides over t h e t o u r n a m e n t , and the roosts are set up, thnt of each village by Itself. When the decoy birds a r e set free not a wild bird can be seen or heard. Up soar the decoys until lost to sight. Then, presently, t h e air is rent by the s c r e a m s of wild birds gradually enticed to the roosts with the tethered t a m e birds. As they approach the roosts, becoming suspicious of t h e men hidden beneath them, t h e wild birds, deciding that m a t t e r s have gone far enough, try to soar away. Now the real labor begins. With open bills and wide-spread wings the decoys attack their victims, b a r their way, head them off, circling round a n d above th in until they :ire driven to the roosts, btrilled and o>:haurted. At t h e end of t h e t o u r n a m e n t a count is mrw'p, and t h e v'llnge and the villager with the hirgest ruinber of captive birds to tl'eir credit a r e publicly pr.tlsed by t h e k; ng. whereupon feasting and dancing be^'in.

AUTUMN IS ALWAYS BEST TIME TO SELECT HENS FOR BREEDING PuHota T h a t Begirt Laying Early in Desirable Additions (Pr»p*r*d by tb« United St&tas Department of Agriculture.) The improvident man who sold his heating stove In July because the circus w a s near and t h e winter far off differs only in the degree of his shortsightedness from the poultry raiser who w a i t s until spring to select the breeding stock that is to be used to replenish his flock. This Important work of picking out the sui jrlor birds must be done in the fall to get the best results, says the United States Department of Agriculture, for It Is then t h a t the greatest contrast between t h e profitable birds and the poor ones shows up. Of course the culling out of the poor layers should go on all through the summer and fall, but at last the top-notchers should be selected as foundation for the coming flock, which ought to be better each year. Never Use I m m a t u r e Puileta. One good rule to follow is to keep t h e pullets out of the breeding Mock until they a r e fully matured. An immature bird may be a good layer and may be from the best stock, but still It is undesirable. Eggs from pullets not yet f u l y developed will not produce as urge or as strong chicks as those from older hens or fully grown pullets. There is no difficulty In know- • Ing when a bird is m a t u r e enough to be used a s a breeder, a s at t h a t time the eggs laid will have reached the size of the average produced by the general run of hens In the flock. Young pullets always lay a r a t h e r small egg, sometimes very small at the start. Those that m a t u r e early may be picked out by keeping track of the birds that start laying first in the fall. These birds may tie marked with leg bands, so that they will not become mixed during t h e winter with those that star t their work later. The late molters a r e the birds that stick to t h e Job longer, and consequently they m a k e up another group that should be used In forming the breeding flock next spring. Leg bands may be used to distinguish these profitable birds, or, better, the early molters may be marketed so that they will no longer have an opportunity to Fall M a t u r e Quickest and W i l l Make t o Breeding Flock. the house for a thorough ventilation on sunny days. The most successful houses, as found by t h e experiences of hundred s of poultry raisers and by experiments of the D e p a r t m e n t of Agriculture and State experiment stations, a r e from 16 to 20 feet deep If t h e open-front plan is followed. From this point the nearer toward the front the fowls are moved the fewer eggs a r e produced. In smaller houses the relative proportion of openings In the front of t h e house must be reduced during t h e winter months In order to keep the fowls comfortable.

Doctor S t a k m a n , Minnesota Pathologist, V i s i t i n g Various European Countries, Making Detailed Study of the Dlaeaee. (Prep*r«d by th* United 6t»t«s Department of Africultur*.) In the hope of finding facts that will be of value In fighting the stem rust of w h e a t In this country, Dr. C. E. S t a k m a n , agent of t h e United States Department of Agriculture and pathologist of t h e Minnesota Agricultural experiment station, is spending the summer In various countries of Europe making detailed studies of the occurrence a n d severity of the disease, especially with reference to its appearance on barberry bushes. He is also collecting much Information on rusts In general. In F r a n c e and Spain, where he visited t h e principal wheat-growing regions, he found no Htem rust on wheat, oats, barley or rye. Although there were many barberries, few of them showed nny signs of this rust, but in Spain plant pathologists informed him keep down the average egg production J t h a t t h e common barberry and an In of t h e flock. T h e general-purpose breeds, which include the I'lymouth Rocks, Rhode Island Reds, and Wyandottes, a s a rule are not profitable after the second year. It is therefore advisable to cull out all of t h e older birds of this class. Of these, the late molters a r e the ones to select for breeders, Just as in the cuse of fowls of any other breed. Rut the selection of birds on the basis of age and lime of molting is not all the preparation that need be made for raising the foundation for the new Hock. T h e health and thrift of the fowls must be looked after carefully during t h e winter. After selecting the breeding birds the poultry hou*e needs close attention. Keeping it in s a m l u r y condition is one of the important points; also the comfort of the house, which Is closely connected with t h e health of the birds. F o w l s a r e very sensitive to moisture conditions, and these should be controlled carefully by ventilation. When moisture1 from the fowls gathers on t h e ceiling and walls there is apt to be trouble soon. In cold weather this moisture may collect in the form of frost, but the heat from the sun in the middle of the day will melt the frost, and the water, dripping down, will m a k e the litter wet. Hens are a good deal like sheep In their sensitiveness to wet feet, either in the bouse or when' outside, and they cannot be kept in good health on damp litter. A sick hen is a hard proposition to deal with if you expect to get out with a profit on her. It is a lot cheaper to depend on dry litter than on medicines to cure colds and roup.

The open front house with cloth curtains l i t h e most practical means for t h e average flock owner to *eep the house thoroughly aired, and t h e fowls will not suffer from the crid If the building has been properly planned; also t h e egg production will keep up. By going into the house frequently in changing winter w e a t h e r it will be easy to judge of the condition of the atmosphere and hring it to normal by adjustments of curtalna and wlndowa. Moisture can be kept from accumulating by opening u p dlgenous species are responsible for the early appearan 'e of stem rust In the spring. Doctor Stakman reports great interest in breeding and selection of wheat varieties resistant to this disease and emphasizes particularly the work of several eminent French investigators. While traveling through France. Spain and Itnly he found little stem rust, but this little w a s always associated with barberry hnshrs. T h e consensus of opinion In the^e countries is that, although stem rust does occur remote from the barberry, It develops Inter In the crop season and causes very much less damage than in those sections where the shrub Is common.

Lannen 59 Touring Devastated Areas. Large numbers of tourists have been keenly disappointed (luring the last year by The ruins of thp war. Several have gone so far as to sny thtft they were persuaded to visit the French battlefields by fraudulent statements. Not only do they find the battlefields a mere few miles in width in spots, but they flnd^grass nnd flowers growing all over them, so that in many place* they seem quite cheery. Instead of having the offensively desolate appearance that one is led to expect from reading war books. Some tourists have been so sadly disillusioned that they say <they will never believe anything else they hear about the war; while others speak of the war with open contempt Conservative students of the tourist problem agree that a new war ought to be staged for the special benefit of these people. Unfortunately they are of a type that is never seen on battlefield* until wars are over, writes Kenneth E. Roberts In the Saturday Eve* nlng Post. Governor's Statement To the People of the State of Michigan: This Is in answer to the mislead* tag and Inaccurate statements being made regarding the state's finances and expenditures during my term as Governor. Briefly, I am submitting for your consideration a short, concise statement, based en offlolal data and figures, open to public Inspection. The yry bad snd wholly unnecessary condition of our State finances which existed prior to 1921 has been largely corrected. The defloit of six million dollars, whioh ths present administration inherited, has been wiped out and at preaent we have a very substantial surplus In the treasury* Operating and administrative costs for departments and Institutions were reduced during the fiscal yesr of 1921 by $1,839,617.63 under what they were in 1920. Your State Tax for 1922 will be 13,140,489.65 leas than it was In 1921 and the lowest since 1918. These results have been brought about by the application of aound business methods to State affairs and the elimination of the old brand of political management. Many of your charitable, penal and correction Institutions were found to be in a deplorable cendltlon and these things have been remedied. We are meeting their every requirement and so, rehabilitating them thst they will function In ths manner and for the purposes for which they were organised. The simplification of gov* ernmental machinery has made It possible to cut out wests and extravagance and plaee our stste activities on the same plane of efficiency and usefulness as those of privately owned enterprises. Beyond all this snd what Is equalr/ important, your government In all its branches hss been kept free from graft and corruption; free from control by Interests of sny sort, political or otherwise; free from the domination of those who would exploit it for and In their own interests. These things should mean much to us as citizens of a great Commonwealth. ALEX. J. GROESBECK.

The postage meter is licensed for use under special rules Issued by the United States Postofflce department Permit to use the meter must be secured from the third assistant postmaster general, division of classification, Washington, D. O. Application must be made through the local postmaster on postofflce form. The machines are leased to users by the manufacturers. The lessee purchases the amount of postage and the postofflce department marks the amount on the register of the machine. For example, should $100 worth of postage be bought, the meter would be placed at 5,000, which would designate the amount In value of two-cent stamps. When these are used the meter is then taken back to the postofflce to' be reset at the amount desired by the user. The register door is locked and sealed by the postofflce after each setting. Each meter prints Impressions corresponding to the denomination and color of the adhesive stamp for which It takes the place. The Inventor gnys that It Is mechanically impossible to waste metered postage, as the register ! will not record unless an Imprint is made on a piece of mall. A set of mterchangeable steel type for the date and hour of mailing Is furnished with each meter. With stamps many thousands of dollars are wasted annu- The hardened-Steel emttls of cutters can be sharpened moving from the heudls. la ****** lug manner: Bald tat cottar aejaM an emery wheel so that as tngOjat ta«l of the former la parallel wits Of grinding wheel The bead* «10 be ground away at the pels* far taNft to bring the cottar tato contact wsta the emery wheat, bat this well as* weaken it, as, when catting gmss, sure la applied to It from the . direction.

The crowds attending were larger as was shown by the gate receipts, and everybody seemed to be satisfied with the fair, which this year was under the management of Don. W. Van Winkle. As usual Pinckney was well represented ut the fair and all were well pleased, though many were disappointed that the stores were- all closed and would-be purchasers were unable to supply their needs. The base ball series was a huge success from a drawing standpoint but a disappointment from a sportsman's view. Stockbrid^je was eliminated in the first game by a conglomeration of players of assorted colors labeled for the day "Fowlerville." These variegated whites and blacks also defeated the team hired for the day from many cities to represent Howell, and won the "County Championship" by a lopsided score. Putnam township carried off nearly all the prices for BJack Top sheep when llendee and Son of Pinckney captured six first prizes, four seconds and three thirds out of seven entries, taking in all thirteen prizes out of a total of twenty-one. 4j* PIERCE FAMILY REUNION The seventh annual reunion of the Pierce family was held at the pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Craft of Marion, Saturday, September 2, 10'J'i, the occasion also celebrating the 37th anniversary of Rev.• and Mrs. X.

Ross, who has represented Livingston County four times as state legislator, three times as representative and once as senator, has evidently made a good impression in Flint where several -candidates are contesting for the nomination of state senator in a fierce mud slinging campaign. In this county, Mr. Ross, who is a tanned and horny handed farmer, is being strongly supported for the nomination and it seems he has also made a good impression in Gerffcsee County. The Flint Weekly Review in its laat week's issue has the following as a comment on Mr. Ross' candidacy. "Candidate Ross enters the contest for state senate free from any alliance or allegiance to the obnoxious local party machine that a few days ago was so bitterly chastised and repudiated by our city voters. The voting public, with its experience with party machine manipulations in this part of the senatorial district, is certainly to be congratulated when Independent candidates of the Henry T. Ross type submit themselves as candidates for public office. . This sort of independence is the qualification of ail qualifications, and service to the pubile and not to some political machine or bows, results when candidates with this virtue are successfully favored by an electorate. We want no candidate to succeed to the office of State Senator from this district whose self elected political guardian is a vicious political ring that will be well within their rights, when dictating the political conduct of their candidate*, when elected to pmMk o«ce.M Corduroy Cords 30 x 3 1-2 15.95 The Most Tire For the Money What It Really Means It means Genuine Ford Parts, 50 per cent of which retail for less than 10 centn.

Washington—The four billion dollar soldiers' bonus bill was passed Aug. 31 by the senate and is now in conference. The vote was 47 to 22 with party lines wiped out. Neither senators nor spectators manifested particular interest in proceedings as the discussion proceeded, but just before the vote at 3 p. m. both the Benate chamber and the galleries filled quickly. With the announcement of the result there was applause from spectators, particularly from one section of the galleries where there were a number of service men. No effort was made to prevent this demonstration. Twenty-seven Republicans and 20 Democrats voted favorably and the opposition vote was divided between 15 Republicans and seven Democrats. Immediately after the passage of the measure the senate directed that it be returned to the house with a request for a conference. Since there is no serious dispute between the two houses on the bonus, the conferees are expected to lay aside the tariff long enough to agree to a report on ' the bonus. j Government experts estimate the total cost of the bonus at $3,845,659,481 j on the basis of 75 per cent of the vet- | erans electing the certificate plan, ' 22½ per cent the farm and home aid, anod 2½ per cent vocational training. This total is exclusive of any appropriations that would be made under the $3,350,000,000 land reclamation provision, but under that provision : the government finally would recover those costs. The total of the certificate plan is placed at $3,364,^.481; farm and home aid, $412,425,000; vo- ,1 cational training, $62,325,000, and cash payments to veterans receiving $50 or less, $16,000,000. As amended by the senate, the soldiers' bonus bill would become effective January 1. 1923, and would provide three optional plans for veterans of the world war other than those whose adjusted service pay would not exceed $50. These would be paid in cash. The options are: Adjusted service certificates, payable in 20 years, or sooner at death, and containing loan provisions. Vocational training aid at the rate of $1.75 a day up to a total of 140 per cent of the adjusted service credit. Aid in purchasing a farm or home, the total amount to range from 100 per cent of the adjusted service credit if the money were advanced in 1923 to 140 per cent of the adjusted service credit if the payment were made in 1928 or thereafter. Adjusted service pay, or adjusted service credit would be figured on the basis of $1 a day for domestic service and $1.25 a day for foreign service, less the $60 paid at discharge. But in no event could the amount of the credit of the veteran who performed no overseas service exceed $500. and the amount of the credit of the veteran who performed any overseas service exceed $625.

CHAPTER XII—Continued. — 1 0 - It was In January, 1896, Constance remembered, that Alan Conrad had bean brought to the people In Kansas; fee then waa "about three years old." If this wedding ring was his mother's, the date would be about right; it was * date probably something a-ore than • year before Alan was born. Constance put down the ring and picked •up the watch. It wag like Uncle Benfcjrs watch—or like one of his watches. H e had several, she knew, presented ft* him at various time*—watches alinost always were the testimonials (given to seamen for acts of sacrifice {and bravery. The spring which operated the cover would not work, but Constance forced the eover open. There, Inside the eover at she had thought It would be, was engraved writing. Sand bad seeped Into the eaae; the inscription waa obliterated Jft part T o r his eooraf* and skill In •earn . . . master of . , . which he toettgnt to the ratcoe of the passengpars and crew of the steamer Wlnnefcafo foundering . . , Point, Lake Brie, NOT. 28, 1880, this watch U donated by the Buffalo Merchant*' Ex- Code Beamy's name, evidently, had engraved upon the oQtalde.

The paper was written In pencil ; it had not even been moistened or it would have blurred. There was nothing upon ltrto tell how long ago It had been written; but It had been written certainly before June 12. "After June 12° it said. That day was August the eighteenth. It was seven months since Uncle Benny had gone away. After bis strange interview with her that day and his going home, bad Uncle Benny gone out directly to his death? There waa nothing to show that he had not; the watch and coins must have lain for many weeks, for months, In water and In sand to become eroded In this way. But, aside from this, there was nothing that could be Inferred regarding the time or place of Uncle Benny's death. That the package had been mailed from Manitowoc meant nothing definite. Some one—Constance could not know whom—had had the muffler and the scrawled leaf of directions; later, after lying in water and In sand, the things which were to be "sent" had come to that some one's hand. Most probably this some one had been one who was going about on ships; when hfs ship had touched at Manitowoc, he had executed his charge. Constance left the articles upon the bed and threw the window more widely open. She trembled and felt stirred and faint, as she leaned against the window, breathing deeply the warm air, full of life and with the scent of the evergreen trees about the house. The "cottage" of some twenty rooms stood among the pines and hemlocks Interspersed with hardwood on "the Point," where were the great fine summer homes of the wealthier "resorters." This was Uncle Benny's country. Here, twenty-five years before, he had first met Henry, whose birthplace—a farm, deserted now—was only a few miles back among the hills. Here, before that, Uncle Benny had been a young man, active, vigorous, ambitious. He had loved this country for Itself and for Its traditions, Its Indian legends and fantastic stories. Half her own love for It—and, since her childhood, It had been to her a region of delight—was due to him and to the things he had told her about It Distinct and definite memories of that companionship came to her. This little bay, which had become now for the most part only a summer playground for such as she, had been once a place where he and other men had struggled to grow rich swiftly; be had outlined for her the ruined lumber docks and pointed out to her the locations of the dismantled sawmills. It was he who had told her the names of the freighters passing far out, and the names of the lighthouses, and something about each. He had told her, too, about the Indiana She remembered one starry night when he had pointed out to her in the sky the Indian "Way of Ghosts," the Milky way, along which, by ancient Indian belief, the souls of Indians traveled up to heaven; and how, later, lying on the recessed seat beside the fireplace where she could touch the dogs upon the hearth, he had pointed out to her through the window the Indian "Way of Dogs" among the constellations, by which the doga too could s a k e that journey. It was he who had told her about Michabou and the animals; and ho had been the first to tell her of the Drum. The disgrace, unhapplneaa, the threat of something worse, which must have made death a relief to Uncle Benny, she had seen passed on now to Alan. What more had corns to Alan since she had last heard of him? Word had reached her father through shipping circles in May and again in July which told of inquiries regarding Uncle Benny which made her and her father believe that Alan was searching for hla father upon the lakes. Now theso articles which had arrived made plain to her that he would never find Uncle Benny; he would learn, through others or through themselves, that Uncle Benny was dead. Would he believe then that there was no longer any chance of learning what his father had done? Would he remain away because of that not letting her see or hear from him again? She went back and picked up the wedding ring. The thevght which had come to her that this was Alan's mother's wedding ring, had fastened itself upon her with a sense of certainty. It defended that unknown mother; it freed her, at least, from the stigma which Constance's own mother had been so ready to cast Constance could not yet begin to place Uncle Benny In relation to that ring; but she was beginning to be able to think of Alan and his mother. She held the little band of gold very tenderly in her hand; she was glad that as the accusation against his mother had come through her people, she could tell him soon of tnf** She could net send the ring to him. Dot knowing where he waa; that waa too much risky But she could ssk him to cstne t o her; this gave that right She eat thoughtful for several miav the rise rlssBsi warmly m her quite what's the matter between us these last months, little girl; but I've known. We've been engaged; but th&fs about all there's been to It. Don't think I make little of that; you know what I mean. You've been mine; but—but you haven't let me realize It, you see. And I've been patient, for I knew the reason. It was Ben poisoning your mind against me." "No ! No, Henry P "You've denied It; I've recognized that you've denied It, not only to me and to your people, but to yourself. I, of course, knew, as I know that I am here with your hand in mine, and as we will stand before the a'tar together, that he bad no cause t<J speak against me. I've waited, Connie, to give him a chance to say to you what he had to say; I wanted you to hear It before making you wholly mine. But hand; then she went to her d&ak and wrote: "Mr. John Welton, 7jT"* "Blue Rapids, Kansas. ~* "~ "Dear Mr. Welton: "It Is possible that Alan Conrad has mentioned me—-or at least told you of my father—in connection with his stay ia. Chicago. After Alan left Chicago, my father wrote twice to his Blue Rapids address, but evidently he had instructed the postmaster there to forward his mail and had not made any change In those instructions, far the letters were returned to Alan's address and in that way came back to us. We did not like to press Inquiries further than that, as of course he could have communicated with us If he had not felt that there was some reason lor not doing so. Now, however, something of such supreme Importance to him has come to us that It Is necessary for us to get word to him at once. If you can tell me any address at which he can be reached by telegraph or mail—or where a messenger can find him—it will oblige us very much and will be to his Interest." She hesitated, about to sign It; then, impulsively, she added : "I trust y^ou know that we have Alan's Interest at heart and that you can safely tell us anything you may know as to where he is or what he may be doing. We all liked him here so very much. . . ." She signed her name. There were still two other letters to write. Only the handwriting of the address upon the package, the Manitowoc postmark and the shoe box furnished clues to the sender of the ring and the watch and the other things. Constance herself could rot trace those clues, but Henry or her father could. She wrote to both of them, therefore, describing the articles which had come and relating what she had done. The next noon she received a wire from Henry that he was "coming . up." It did not surprise her, as she | had expected him the end of the week.; Late that evening, she sat with her { H e D r e w H er to Him Powerfully? She mother on the wide, screened veranda. The lights of some boat turning in ! between the points and moving swift ly caught her attention. Felt Him Warm, Almoat Rough With Passions. As It entered If now there's no need to wait any longthe path of the moonlight, its look was , er, you and I. Ben's gone, never to so like that of Henry's power yacht that she arose. It was his way, as soon as he had decided to leave business again and go to her, to arrive as soon as possible; that had been his way recently, particularly. So the I come back. I was sure of that by what you wrote me, so this time when I started to you I brought with me— this." He felt in his pocTcet and brought out a ring of plain gold; he held It beslght of the yacht stirred her warmly • fore her so that she could see within and she watched while it ran in close, stopped and instantly dropped a dingey from the davits. She saw Henry In the stern of the little boat; It disappeared in the shadow of a pier . . . she heard, presently, the gravel of the walk crunch under his quick steps, and then she saw him in the moonlight among the trees. She went down on the path to meet him. "How quickly you cameP "You let yourself think you needed me, Connie P "I did. . . ." He had caught her hand In his and hs held it while he brought her to the porch and exchanged greetings with hsr mother. Then he led her on past and into the house. When she saw his face In the light there were signs of strain In i t "You're tired, Henry P He shook hla head. "It's been roeten hot in Chicago; then I gueas 1 was mentally stoking all the way up here, Connie. But first where are the things you wanted me to see?" She ran upstairs and brought them down to him. Her hands were shaking* now as she gave them to him; she could not exactly understand why; but her tremor increased as she saw hla big hands fumbling as he unwrapped the muffler and shook out the things it Inclosed. He took them up one by one and looked at them, aa she had done. Hla fingers were steady now, but only by mastering of control, the effort for which amazed her. Hs had the watch In hla hand*, "The Inscription Is inside the front** she said. She pried the cover open again and f her say. And so he let her go it her own initials and his and a blank left for the date. Her gaze went from It for an Instant to the box where he had put back the other ring—Alan's mother's. Feeling for her long ago gazing thus, as she must have, at that ring, held her for a moment. Was It because of that that Constance found herself cold now? "You mean you want me to marry you—at once, Henry T He drew her to him powerfully; she felt him warm, almost rough with passions. Since that day when, In Alan Conrad's presence, , ha had grasped and kissed her, she bad not let him "realize" their engagement as 1 he had put It "Why n o t r he turned her face up to his now. "Your mother's here; your father will follow soon; or, If you will, well run away—Constance I You've kept me off so long! You don't believe there's anything against me, dear? Do you? Do you?" "No; no I Of course not P "Then we're going to be married. . . . Right away, we'll have It then; up here; nowP "No; not now, Henry. Net up here P "Not here? Why n o t r She could give no answer. Ha held her and commanded her again; only when he frightened her, he ceased. "Why.must It be at once, Henry? I don't understand!" "It's not must dear," he denied. "It's Just that I want you sol" When would It be, he demanded then; before spring, she promised at last But that waa all he could make read, with him, the words engraved within. " 'As master of . . . ' What ship waa he master of then, Henry, and how did hs rescue the Winnebago's people?" "Hs never talked to me about things like that Constance. This Is all?" "Yes." Henry put the things back In the box. "Of course, this Is the end of Benjamin Corvet" "Of course," Constance said. She was shaking again and, without will- ' Ing It she withdrew a little from Henry. He caught her hand again and drew her back toward him. His hand was quite steady. "You know why I came to you as quick as I could? You know why I— why my mind was behind every thrust ~* the engines?" "No." T o n don't? Oh, you know; you "itist know nowP "Yes, Henry," she said. T v e been patient Connie. Till I got your letter telling me this about Ben, Td waited for your sake—for eur sake*—though it seemed at times It waa impossible* Tee haven't known The next evening. In the moonlight, She drove him to Petoskey. He had messages to send and preferred to trust the telegraph office In the larger town. Alan was driving northward along the long, sandy peninsula which separates the blue waters of Grand Traverse from Lake Michigan; and, thinking of Constance, he knew that she wee sear. Jke net only had retuembered that aha would be north at Har bor Point this month; he had seen In one of. che Petoskey papers that she and her mother were at the SherTtll summer home. Hla Business *now was taking him nearer them than he had boon at any time before; and, If he wished to weaken, fte might convince himself that he might learn from her circumstances which would aid him In hla task. But he was not going to her for help; that was following m his father's footsteps. When he knew every thing, then—not till then—he could ga to her; for then he would know exactly what was upon htm and what he should do. His visits to the people named on those sheets written by his father had been confusing at first; he had had gfeat difficulty in tracing some of them at all; and, afterward, he could uncover no certain connection either between them and Benjamin Corvet or between themselves. But recently, he had been succeeding better In this latter. He had seen—he reckoned them over again—fourteen of the twenty-one named originally on Benjamin Cor^ vet's lists; that is, he had seen either the individual originally named, or the surviving relative written in below the name crossed off. He had found that the crossing out of the name meant that the person was dead, except In the case of two who had left the country and whose whereabouts were as unknown to their present relatives as they had been to Senjamln Corvet, and the case of one other, who VHS ii an Insure asylum. He had found that no one of the persons whom he saw had known Benjamin Corvet personalty; many of them did not know him at all, the others knew him only as a name. But, when Alan proceeded, always there was one connotation with each of the original names; always one circumstance bound all together. When he had established that circumstance as influencing the fortunes of the flrst two <n his lists, he had said to himself, a> *he blood pricked queerly under the ikln, that the fact might hs a mere coincidence. When he established It also aa affecting the fate of the third and of the fourth and of , the fifth, such explanation no longer , sufficed; and he found It In common to all fourteen, sometimes as the bedding factor of their fate, sometimes at only slight*.y aTectlng them, but always It was thett. In how many different ways. In what strange, diverse roanlfestattrms ftot single clrcumstanc* had sprvxd to these people whom Alan had Interviewed! No two of ttwra had beetj affected alike, he reckoned, as he went over his notes of them. Now he was going to trace thofle consequences to another. To what sort of place would It bring him today and what would he And there? He *cnew only that It would be quite dlstJoct from the rest The driver turned aside from the road across a cleared field where ruta showed tbe passing of many previous vehicles; crossing this, they entered the woods. Little fires for eeckinfl burned all about them, and nearer were parked an immense n,wnber o# farm wagons and buggies, with horses unharnessed and munching grain. AV an's guide found a place among thesS for his automobile, and they got out and went forward on foot All about them, seated upon the moss or walk' ing about, were Indians, family groups among which children played. Alan saw among these looking on, the bright dresses and sport coats of summer visitors who had come te watch. The figure of a girl among these caught his attention, and he started; then swiftly he told himself that it was only his thinking of Constance Sherrill that made him believe this was she. But aow she had seen him; she paled, then as quickly flushed, and leaving the group she had been with, came toward him. He had no choice fiow whether hs would avoid her or not; and his happiness at seeing her held him stupid, watching her. Her eyes were very bright and with something more than friendly greeting; there was happiness in them too. His throat shat together as he recognised this, and hla hand closed warmly over the small, trembling hand which she put out to him. All his conscious thought was lost for the moment In tbe mere realization of her presence; he stood, holding her hand, oblivious that there were people looking; the too seemed careless of that. Then she whitened again and withdrew her hand; she seemed slightly confused. He was confused as well; it was not like this that he had meant to greet her; he caught hlmaelf together. Cap in hand, be stood beside her, trying to look and to feel as any or* dlnary acquaintance^ of hers wonJf have looked.

Hut there are too many people who seem to be thinking only of themselves and how they can profit at the expense of the community at large, and especially at the expense of t h e farmer. The f a n n e r Is s'ck and tired of this sort of business. He is disgusted with these recurring disp u t e s between capital and labor, especially as connected with the essential Industries. He sees no reason why such disputes cannot and should not be settled in tin orderly and lawful way, and without the interruptions of service, which cost him so dearly. "If the various groups in this count r y are determined to prey upon one a n o t h e r and abandon law and order for strnng-ann methods, the farmer can take care of himself. He can reduce his production to his own needs. He can follow the example of some others and refuse to sell what lie produces. Hut he does not believe in t h a t sort of thing.

There Is what may be called a side quarrel going on over the question as to whether the executive department flaunted the senate by creating this commission without asking the consent of the congress, but it seems likely that congress will not make a great to-do over the action of the secretary of state In Ignoring the s e n a t e reservation. The thing that congress is Interested in, and the phase of the situation that evidently interests a largo section of the public, is w h e t h e r the government will let loose of the d e r m a n mooey ft holds before the American claims are satisfied. Thin!; Germany Won't Object. The executive department has reason to believe, so it Is said authoritatively, that the (Jerman government will not object to the United States' holding most of the alien property until suitable provision has been made for the satisfaction of the claims against Germany. T h e State department, in co-operation with the alien property custodian, is now working on some such plan. Some of the large business Interests in Germany whose property Is held here are, so it is asserted, willing that their property shall remain in this country and In the h a n d s of the alien custodian so long- as It Is being managed to good advantage.

D e s p l U "Nawncajj" o* t h e Country, T h e r e Arp No Better Institutions of Learning Anywhere. T h e r e is frequently hesitation ex pressed by those whose minds are almost made op to move to the agri c u l t u r a l lands of Western Canada, t h a t the children will not enjoy the school privileges afforded them ID their present surround hags. T h i s (s a r e a s o n a b l e doubt. T h e country la new.

It was a c o u n t r y of unknown quantity. It is different today, and it h a s been made different in that short time because of the latent stores of wealth hidden in t h e land, which has been made to yield bountifully through the d a r i n g enterprise of the pioneer and the railways that had the courage t o extend their e n t e r p r i s i n g lines of steel throughout its length and a great portion of its b r e a d t b . Villages and hnml^fs have developed into towns and towns into cities, supported and maintained by thofe who, coming practically from all p a r t s of t h e world, and many, yes. thousands, from the neighboring states to the south, h a v e taken up land that cost them but a trifle as compared with what they wt-re anle to dispose of the holdings upon which they had been living for years. These people brought with them a method In life that electrified and changed the e n t i r e Canadian West. Today things a r e different, and a trip to Western Canada ill show a c o u n t r y , n e w but old.

The skirt slopes to points at the left side and is slashed there. Having bestowed this daring and telling touch to it, the designer centered his thoughts on the girdle and bodice and accomplished something new in each of them. Three strands of silk cord form a belt across the sides and back and fall In long ends at the front, finished with slender silk tassels. The bodice blouses over the girdle at a low waist line. An applique of black silk braid over the lower part of the sleeves is Immensely effective. The round neck with a little "V" shaped slash at the trout Is faced back with crepe de able avenues and they set the pace for Main Street everywhere. Taking the most important items In our wardrobes, as a starting point we consider the suit, and find that its several types are developed on lines- that are dignified. The simplest suit and the most formal one have been taken seriously and their designers do their utmost to make them all that suits can be.

Seeley's candidacy for Congress that indicates the determination of Oakland County voters to select a citizen of this county for representative in the Sixth District. The interest and helpful spirit thus far evidenced is not by any means confined to Oakland County as the Pontiac mayor's campaign lias been received with favorable consideration throughout the district. Aside from the element of pride which is a factor of no mean importance there is much in the personality of the local candidate to appeal to the Republican electors. He is favorably regarded because of his sound notions with respect to public m a t t e r s and his substantial back ground of common sense. He is not beset with any frills nor is he the victim of any isms. His j u d g m e n t s are not of the hair-trigger variety nor a t t u n e d to any passing fancy. As a successful business man rje has discovered that the sure and safe way to attain a desired objective is by predicating his desire on the eternal verities. l i e is not afraid of the uncharted sea, but he has the caution and prudence that are vitally essential to voyages in s t r a r ^ e waters. Having arisen from the ranks of those who struggle at the bottom, Mr. Seeley has no false conceptions of the problems of humanity. He is essentially social in his mental make up and the problem of the man in the street is his problem. There is nothing of the demagogue in his mental apparatus nor in his personality. He is wholly in disacord with the policies and methods of the pretender and the panderer to prejudice. He is outspoken, consistent and conscientious. As his speeches have revealed, Mr. Seeley lias the full courage of his convictions and has not hesitated without reservr on matters of current inipnrtancr'and problems of national concern. He is by nature reasonable, contemplative and fair minded. But lie believes in law and order and entertains a profound respect for the Constitution. He .regard1-; the Eighteenth Amendment with approval and s;iys that it makes for "better citizenship, i more prosperous country and happier homes." He has not been afraid to go on record to this effect. It may be fairly said that Mr. Seeley belongs to no class and is tied to no interest. He is essentially a free lance, a citizen who is ready to serve his district and the nation with the fruits of his experience and knowledge that has been gained by lifetime mixing with his fellows in a great variety of ways. 7-",very voter has the right to ask what n candidate's connections are. Does he stand on his own responsibility free and untrameled, or are his interests bound up with certain associates whose inbucnee might be detrimental to the common good? Judged from this standpoint the Oakland County candidate is in a position to approach the electors with a clean slate. He enjoys good health; is a representative type of American citizen, wholesome, likeable and dependable. If the people of this section of Michigan h;»e found that "Thad Secley's word is as good as a bond," it is because that is the kind of a man he is. Those who have interested themselves in his candidacy arc confident that he will be nominated if the primary is well attended. Here Are New Fall Suits Recognition tf Goatha.

For the past three years Mr. Weeks has been S u n d a y . School Superintendent and a very c e d e n t worker with the young people j>f the community. Mrs. Weeks has been a great help as organist and teacher. It is with regret the Sunday School was obliged t o accept their resignations, Mr. Weeks having accepted a position with t h e Upjohn Company of Kalamaxoo. It was a jolly crowd and the evening was pleasantly spent visiting, also several contests and stunts were enjoyed by all present. Miss Clella Fish then read one of her original poems which was greatly appreciated. While Miss Fish was reading thp norm, at the appointed time P. H. Sw^-thout placed a beautiful wicker fernery in front of Mr. and Mrs. Weeks ns a slight token of esteem from the Sunday School. It is an unusual thing for "Billy" to be in a place where he c a n n o t talk, but he sure had throat trouble that night. H W e r e r , he responded with well chosen remarks. Ice cream and cake were then served after which all joined in singing "dod Be With You T i l l We Meet Again." 611 departed with best wishes for Mr. and Mrs. Week* la their new field of work. implements.

Women of aii ages are selecting them for general day-time wear practically to the exclusion of other types. Even those who have long realized the versatility of clothes Whits Serge Dress Trimmed Red and Black Leather. With of this sort never, in their most sanguine moments, dreamed that they, would be adopted in such a worldwide way, declares a fashion writer lo the New York Tribune. Paris is competing with London and New York in the making of the smartest and most appealing styles in outdoor clothes. When any type of dress is exploited from all sides It always means thnt if the* models are pretty and hecoming a certain number of women will wear them with little sense of fitness. That is, a so-called pastime hat may he worn with a pown to which It is entirely unsulted. This ts ulso true of shoes. We have cut adrift from the old standards which governed the selection of footwear. The hnnl blow was dealt with the wholesale adoption of patent leather for low-heeled walking shoes. With the flooding of the market with many excellent Ideas in dress at one time there J w a y s comes a misnppliratlon of the best of them. Both sweaters and dresses are made In two or more contrasting colors; that is. of silk or • oo| In a plain color patterned in hl;:h relief. Among the prettiest of the sweaters are those in lavender bro. ad*jd In blue. A new model in these shades which closes down the front like the very old-fashioned coat sweater is long, coming almost to the knees, and has long sleeves which flare at the bottom. The>re Is a high cobar buttoning up about the neck. The sweater itself Is lavender and around the bottom and on the sleeves and the collar are squares knitted In blue. ]t Is bloused by means of an elastic band placed low on the inside. White Flannel and Serge. A great demand for any particular type of dress is a wonderful Inspiration to designers and manufacturers and an Incentive to do their best in that particular line. While there <s the greatest diversity of color in the outing costume, here as everywhere else, a few colors become the extreme of fashion. In the plain shades hrown. gray ind white are favorite. while in the brighter hues there are unusual shades of cerise, purple, yellow and red, Emphasis Is placeu on yellow and black used In unison. A complete reaction from black In daytime clothes Is manifesting itself In the other extreme, white, for street wear, particularly white with color. And on thl* wave comes white flannel ns well as white serge of an extremely soft and *5ne texture woven In psrt of camel's hair, which, mixed with th? wool, gives a marvelous effect. The kasha ser<e of Iiodier Is of this character. Jeanne Lnnvln has been responsible largely for this movement to white serge nn I flannel with trimmings of embroidery In high colors, a trimming which she always bar favored and In which st e ever h: s excelled. One of her best models is In white serge em-, hroldered in a brilliant Chinese red with little flakes of black as a relief, j Another Interesting model of white serge '" r>t simple design wirh slim | panels on the bodice and on the skirt. Tlds frock Is embroidered in red and ! black in n .Tugo-Slav pattern. A great many of Lanvin's embroideries are in Russian and Jugo-Slav designs. There are charming frocks of white serge done with bead embroideries in high colors after Russian motifs. Very often such frocks are in coat styles with the Russian bodice crossing. Knglish women long have recog- ' nixed the desirability of flannel for outdoor skirts, Jackets and frocks, and this season sees them adopted In a larger way than ever before. Many American women have felt that flannel w a s not the most practical material. Mexican Drawn Work. Few women realize that the Vlyella flannels are absolutely unshrinkable if properly laundered and that they come in a large variety of styles and weights. It Is possible to obtain the creamy white shades In six different weights. Then there are the stripes, the checks and the Scotch tartan plaids, in addition to the heavy or suiting weights In both white and fancy checks. Smart costumes consisting of a dress and cape are developed from the lighter-weight flannels in. both the white and Ivory shades and topped with hats of a vivid hue. Crepe de chine nnd crepe marocaln still are very Important fabrics for the development of pastime clothes. Lanvin has made a beautiful model in two shades of crepe marocaln. The blouse is of bright red, while the skirt is cream white. The bodice is made to slip on over the head and cut in pointed scallops at the bottom. The sleeves are finished in like manner. The girdle consists ot a narrow strip of the white silk run through medallion slides of coral-colored composition. The skirt has a plaited front panel set in with hemstitching and Mexican drawn work—types of trimming which are very popular Just now. Trimmed With Red Clre Braid. Another successful Lanvin model also is developed in crepe marocaln In two colors, but in this Instance yellow and white are chosen, the blouse being in citron yellow trimmed with black and the skirt in pure white; Jean Patou has been featuring the three-piece suit In his summer Collection. In one of Patou's best models of this sort white serge is the material used and the trimming is red clre braid. The lining of the Jacket and the foundation skirt are of red silk; the blouse is of white crepe georgette. Patou in many of his recent models ha8 shown an extreme fondness for red. He apparently never misses an opportunity to use this color with good effect. It Is pleasingly exploited In a Jacket and dress. These two make up a costume developed In white and red serge. The loore-fltting Jacket is of the red material trimmed with black and red leather, while the dress Is of white serge with leather trimming, An interesting Idea in connection with daytime garments Is the use of Another Winsome rostume l rimmed With Red Cire Braid. large embroidered (;ren-worK rno-rrv grams placed on the center of the blouse just beneath the i#>lnted V collar. This idea is also shown In knitted garments. Enormous Hats. One of the enormous hats beneath which the Parislenne hides herself at present has almost the proportions and half the characteristics of a tent. In black, for example, It has a large, crushed crown of satin rising very high and spreading very wide. Below this spreads a huge expanse of brim, half the size of a parasol. And from the tent-like brim hang curtains of beautiful black lace, falling In front almost to the nose and in back almost to the waist. All-White. All-white costumes are very fashionable. Sometimes a bright-colored hat, or a scarlet lining to the cape, offers a contrasting color note. Orange Blossoms. A set of lingerie for a fastidious hrlde Is made of white silk, and on each piece is a tiny bouquet of orange blossoms. RESULT IN DOUBT UNREST AND DISCONTENT OF T H E PEOPLE WORRY T H E REPUBLICAN LEADERS. SECRET CONFERENCES HELD National Organization Won't Attempt to Direct the State Campaign*— Democrat* Not Yet Making Political Capital Out of Strike Trouble*. By JAMES P. HORNADAY Washington.—The 1922 elections are approaching. In three months from now the country will have Indicated how it feels about a good many matters, some of nation-wide import, others of purely local Interest. The politicians would be happier If they had a better line on what is likely to happen. If surface Indications can be relied on, there are many cross currents to be reckoned with. The United States Is about the only country where people should be happy and contented, but a great many of them are not. Unrest is manifested in many ways. The season has brought bountiful agricultural crops, there is now work for nearly every man who wants work ; wages are high compared with wages In other countries; the country Is at peace with all the world. And still there is disturbed state of mind. The Republican party is more concerned about the existing conditions than the Democratic party because, being the party in power In the federal government and In nearly all the states, It has much at stake. The peculiar situation received attention at a series of secret Republican conferences held at the headquarters of the party here recently. Many of the "best minds" of the party participated in these conferences. The situation in 15 or 20 northern states was examined by the party chieftains, and some 150 congressional districts received attention. Hard to Plan the Campaign. These conferences, according to persons who attended them, did not find It easy to decide on a plan of campaign that would obviously meet the situation. The representatives of the party who were called here have gone home with the understanding that the national organization will probably not attempt very leadership in conditions, it Is asserted, are so unusual that It Is deemed wise for each state organization to work out its own salvation, so to speak. The Democrats, who ulso maintain national headquarters here, have been conferring a good deal and while they are hopeful that things will come their way in November, they realize that no well-informed person would attempt at this time to prophesy as to what will happen on election day. The outstanding feature of the situation les* than three months before the people are to go to the polls, according to spokesmen for each of the national organizations, Is an unusual lack of interest among the masses of the people in purely partisan politics. Party leaders, it is asserted, are not acclaimed as they once were and In some sections of the country may consider tl emselves fortunate If they get a fair hearing. It Is not In evidence that this attitude of the voters generally is directed specially at either of the old political parties. Rather, according to the spokesmen for the two national organizations, it is an Indication of a growing tendency among voters to cut loose from purely political affiliations. No Real National issue. It appears now that there will not be eny outstanding national issues In the coming campaign, unless the tariff can be made such an Issue. The strategists in the two old parties are not disposed to get much excited about the tariiT. They are of the opinion that, generally speaking, the people are not likely to take the tariff Issue very seriously. The Harding administration will, of course, be up for Indorsement. Until recently the Republican leaders have regarded the Harding record as a big asset. Just now they are not certain as to the value they will be able to place on it when the campaign comes on. There has been criticism of the administration's handling of the Industrial situation, but the Republican politicians believe that in the end the country will approve the President's handling of the problem. The Democrats thus far have not been inclined to attempt to make any political capital out of the administration's handling of the strike situation. One decision reached by the Republicans In their series of conferences here this week was that an heroic effort will be made to overcome the feeling against the congress. The congress is, of course, a liability today. The Republican speakers who will go out Into the campaign will be under Instruct i n g to attempt to show that the record of the special session and of the regular session Is not as bad ns the puhllc has been led to believe. It was t h e n e n s e of the Republicans who came in for the week's conferences that the tariff legislation should be disposed of as quickly ns possible and that the c o n f e s s should adjourn by the middle of September. President Stick* Close to Job. President Harding has abandoned ail hope of getting a vacation this summer. Until very recently he had held on to a tentative plan for a rest of three or four weeks in New England. With so many problems pressing for solution, he has decided to remain here. He was compelled to cancel plans for a vacation last summer because of the inability "of the congress to complete the work he had laid out for It. He has had 17 months In the White House without a real break. This surpasses the record of any President within the period of the present generation. Last spring the President made definite plans tor visiting Alaska this summer. He was to have spent the entire month of August in the territory as the guest of Scott C. Bone, the territorial governor. But as the summer came on the congress was still on his hands and it became necessary to abandon the Alaskan trip. Following the cancellation of this plan, the tentative arrangements for a prolonged stay In New England were made. Then the miners' strike and the strike of railroad shopmen demanded the President's attention, and the general industrial situation became no unsatisfactory that it was deemed advisable to give up the plans for going to New England. The United States has had a good many hard-working Presidents, but not one of them put in more hours at hia desk than does President Harding. He frequently gets over to the executive office before the clerical force reports for duty, and It Is a common thing for him to be at his desk until ten o'clock or eleven o'clock at night. This does not mean that he works these long hours without taking some time off during the day. Playa Golf In Early Morning. Unless the pressure of official duties is unusually heavy, Mr. Harding goes out for a round at golf every day. During the last few months he has been going to the golf game early in the morning two or three days in the week. The driver of a milk wagon reported the other morning that as be was passing the White House a little before 6 a. m. he observed the President starting out In his automobile headed In the direction of one of the golf courses, while four secret service men were putting on their collars and neckties as they hurried away in a second machine in pursuit of the President. The sight that interested the driver of a milk wagon is not an unusual one. When the President makes up hli mind the evening before to get an early start on the golf course, he leaves a call for 5 a. m. The secret service men, whose duty it Is always to keep him in sight, are called at the much In the way of j same hour, but some of them live some the campaign. Local j distance from the White House, and ' It frequently happens that they are compelled to hustle. On days when the President does not go to the golf course at 0 a. m., he goes out immediately after breakfast and is back at his desk about 10:30 a. m. Recently on account of the press of business he has done but little golfing In the afternoon. No person acquainted with the hard tasks that confront the President of the United States every day would think of criticising him for taking a little time off each day for recreation. Mr. Harding seldom goes out in his automobile for the mere pleasure of riding. Keep* on Shaking Hands. Recently the President's cabinet has been trying to persuade him to conserve his strength by declining to shake hands with the folks from all over the country who throng Washington during the summer seasou. The President has declined to tun] the tourists away empty handed. Three times a week—nn Monday, Wednesday and Friday—long lines of tourists form in front of the executive oftce, and at one o'clock or thereabouts these lines move forward. Not infrequently the President shakes hands with 500 or 600 persons at )ne of these midday affairs. To a considerable extent the handshaking crowds represent organizations of various kinds. If the industrial situation s.iould be straightened out within the next week or two the^-Presldent would still have the dilatory congress on his hands and would not feel like leaving the .national capital. The determination of the President to stick to his tasks—a determination that has kept him in Washington through two summers—has made it difficult for members of his cabinet to take vacations. Some of them have not had a week's full rest since March 4, 1921. In the old days Washington used to practically shut up shop during the summer season, The Landlord Lied. "You fellows are always pitching into us landlords," he said to a reporter, "but we have our side to the story.

Removal of Restriction* N • c a n a r y D u r Ing the W a r Has Shown World's Faith In Dominion's Future. For a period during the late war, and for a while after its close, there was put into operation by the Canadian fovernment legislation restricting certain classes and people of the countries which were not lined up with the allied nations from being admitted to Canada. This was quite necessary, and the reasons for it will be so apparent that they need not be given. However, the time came, In the early summer of this year, when It was deemed possible to remove some of these restrictions. It was found that there were many who came under their ruling that were of a class that Canada needed and who needed Canada. The restrictions, doubtless, were drastic, but were needful. The news of their removal, sent broadcast, has met with such a response as to give ample evidence that they had not killed interest in Canada, and that faith In the Dominion as a country where a new existence, happy and fruitful, was as complete as ever. As has been stated by one writer dealing with this subject, "the opening of the doors a little wider has but disclosed the dammed-up state of the stream, which, given freer release, 'Is pouring In fuller force over the Dominion." As to the moral effect of the legislation that enabled these restrictions to be carried out, it showed that while Canada was seeking settlers, its lands and Its homes were not intended as a shelter for those unable to meet the standard set as Canada's laws of civilization, the concessions which have removed these restrictions still have In view the maintenance of this standard, and those who are still allowed In are subject to the same requirements that have prevailed for years. As pointed out by the writer previously quoted, "Canada has successfully Impressed on those countries from which she draws her people that her prime and crying need Is for those who will go on land, and of those entering the country the bulk Is composed of agriculturists. Every country which has formerly contributed to Canada's population has resumed Its mission to its shores. "The lowering of the barriers has had a farther-reaching effect than the entry Into the country of many formerly debarred by reasons of financial stringency. It has had a moral effect. The restriction was rightly regarded as an indication of Canada's internal economic condition, and many persons and families of comfortable means contemplating Canadian settlement were discouraged from doing so. In the removal Is seen the first blush of the dawn of better days, and consequently many of those arriving are In a condition to establish rapidly and securely, "Though Canadian Immigration falls broadly Into the two classes, British and American, many European peoples have contributed in a large measure to the agricultural development of the Western provinces, and it Is gratifying to note the same healthy Interest In Canada evinced by the most desirable of these. "Amongst those from the European countries are Serbians, Poles, Swiss, Roumanians, Dutch, Jugo-Slflvs, French, Danish, Norwegians, Swedes, Finns and Lithuanians. All have constituted fine, desirable cltlzen-bulldlng material, as the few detentions and lesser deportations bear testimony. Furthermore, the disturbed industrial conditions of the New England stater5 have resulted in the commencement of an exodus of French-Canadian families Iback to their old homes, which maj j-each an appreciable size. "On all sides this awakening of Interest Is evident. It Is a new faith borne on the crest of the wave of brighter prospects, the dawn of a fuller realization, In the continued inability of many other countries to emerge from the economic slough tnto which the war plunged them, of the desirability of Canada as a country more rapidly throwing off its post-bellum depression, and its great place in the world's Immediate future.

(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Seed corn for next season's planting should be selected In the field from the standing stalks in September. The (Jsappointjng search for good seed corn every spring should be a sufficient reason for following this practice, strongly advocated by the United States Department of Agriculture. Any intelligent farmer can go into his own cornfield when the corn Is mature and select high-grade seed if he has planted suitable types of corn and cultivated properly. If he has joined a county movement to develop certain standard varieties of corn which grow In that locality, and If he has raised these strains on his own land, he may reasonably expect a market for any surplus seed. County Agents Report Progress. Various methods were followed last fall by the county agents of the Northern and Western states In their efforts to convince the farmers that field selection of corn was a good thing which would amply pay for any trouble Involved. Similar tactics may well be used this season where for one reason or another the local people are not in the habit of field-selecting their seed corn. In Steele county. Minnesota, selection between September 10 and September 20 was urged. The week of September 24 was chosen as "good seed corn week" in Nance county, Nebraska. It seems likely that the corresponding dates this year will be the best time to go out Into the field and choose the most promising ears, noting the character of the plants on which they grow and the details which Indicate a vigorous and healthy condition. The county agent for Dakota county, Minnesota, reports that a permanent and reliable source of seed corn is being developed by getting certain farmers in the county to speclallre In seed corn week. They are asked to produce a dependable type of Improved corn and to put In facilities for drying and storing it properly. The average farmers are also encouraged to sein the winter bring the best ten ears to the local county schools where shows will be held. The best ten ears from each school will then compete with the other schools of the township and the best from the town with the rest of the county. Six hundred and thirty-nine youngsters promised to try. The agent for Washington county, Indiana, mailed circular letters and publications on the subject to all the farmers of his county in the fall, and had demonstrations given at the schools for the younger generation. The rural teachers in this county include seed selection of corn as a project in their agricultural work. In spite of the development of a very successful central seed corn testing association in Rush county, Indiana, for several years, it Is the opinion of the county agent that the testing alone cannot be depended on for eliminating corn diseases. Soil conditions and the heredity of the seed corn are factors which affect the growth of the corn, and the latter of these can be controlled by more careful selection of seed corn in the fall from the field. Field Selection In Some New Places. A great deal of Interest was manifested in six field demonstrations of seed-corn selection held In Cass county, Missouri. This line of work was entirely new to many of the farmers present. Those who participated in the 260 bushels selected were further convinced of the value of early seed selection from the stalks, because of the adverse weather conditions later in the fall. The autumn was abnormally wet in this section, and the corn matured slowly; then an early freeze in November caused a low percentage of germtnatlon in seed selected haphazard in the ordinary way after gathering the corn. In Mississippi county, Missouri, the work done in relation to the field-crops project in 1920 was mainly concentrated upon* field selection of corn. This was carried out through community meetings which were held in co-operation with the county school superintendent. The advantages of Farmer Should Endeavor to Strike a n Average of Good Ears Like These. lect their own seed, but the definite work of safeguarding the seed corn supply of the county Is being carried on with a few men who are really competent to produce certified seed corn and equipped to handle It. Eventually it is hoped that there will be a man In every township doing this seed corn work and, where possible, having seed corn houses In which to dry It. In Scott county, Minnesota, last year, 4,300 acres of selected seed were planted. For their 1921 planting 32 farmers field-selected their seed corn, and all bad a surplus to sell. Stearns county has 31 co-operators In seed corn work. Minnesota No. 13, Rustless White Dent, and Northwestern Dent were the varieties used. Some of this certified seed was awarded to 30 farmers with their farm bureau renewal, thus Insuring a good distribution for this year. The boys and girls of the county Include field selection of seed corn In their club work. Indiana Has SchooLChHdrsn'a Contest Indiana has been especially active in emphasizing the importance of having erery fanner field-select his seed com from the standing stalks. A report of the county agent leader for Indiana states that In White county a unique proposition was placed before the children In six rural township schools. The pupil and father were to pick out the best bushel of seed corn to be found is the seed at home. This was to be planted on one side of a field, for Identification. The* la tfee fall the pupil I* to pick out 30 or 40 ears from the standing stalks fee asai, and later the method to the Individual farmer were considered paramount, and the improvement of seed corn in the county was also stressed. The demonstrations showed also how field selection would help to eliminate corn-root rot, if ears were selected from stalks that were vigorous and not ripening prematurely and on shanks that showed no evidence of decay. Co-Ope rat I on by Written Agreement The county agetit for Huerfano county, Colorado, visited 20 farmers last year who were among the foremost corn growers, snd made written agreements with each, whereby they promised to raise their corn accord ing to the usual method of cultivation, select seed corn in the field and store It in a dry place where the air would circulate. These fields were all visited by the county agent daring the summer and an accurate estimate made of the percentage of stand each had, thus showing the men of what importance it was to plant seed corn that germinates 100 per cent. Emphasis on field selection of seed corn has been general In all the state* where corn is an Important crop, and many interesting notes on the progress and reception of the work are found In the reports from Ohio, Nevada, New Mexico, Connecticut. Idaho. Illinois, Kansas, New Jersey, New York. Pennsylvania, Sooth Dakota. Utah and Washington. Many germination tests have hepn mad*, and there are frequent school contests to bring to the attention of boys and girls In club work the need for good seed c^rp FOR REAL ECONOMY In the Kitchen USE The Economy BAKING POWDER A Big Time and Money Saver e r ^ ^ * * * ^ When you bake with Calumet you know there will be no loss or failures.

Colored Messenger Couldn't See Where the "Sport" Came In in That Kind of Fishing. In a government office In Washington one day a Callfomlan was discoursing on the sport of fishing off the Pacific coast, "We all get out in small motorboats," said he, "and fish with a long line baited with flying fish. Anything less than a hundred-pound tuna isn't considered good sport." A colored .messenger had been listening with great Interest to this conversation. "Excuse me, boss," he said, wideeyed, as he stepped up to the group, "but did I understand you to say that you were fishln' for hundred-pound fish in a little motorboat?" "Yes," said the Callfomlan. "we go out frequently." "But," urged the messenger, "ain't you all afeared you might ketch one?" —Pittsburgh Dispatch. Woman Probably Convinced T h a t at That Moment H e r "Jinx" Waa Strictly on the Job. Lack of Interest, Mrs. Rose—"I think, Clarence, we had bettor move to another hotel." Clarence—"Why, my dear. We are delightfully situated here." Mrs. Hose— "I know we are, Clarence, but the people here have seen all my dresses." I was very busy upstairs with some necessary writing, and, glancing out the window, beheld Mrs. "Stay-Forever," a neighbor, coming up the walk. Calling my small daughter, I told h e r to tell the visitor I was not at home. She descended the stairs to do my bid* ding and I tipped softly to the top of the stairs to hear the conversation. "Mother home?" Inquired Mrs. Neighbor. "No, ma'am," said my faithful child. At this unfortunate moment the heavy blue beads I wore around nay neck broke and rattled down In the hall like a heavy hailstorm. My small daughter glanced at the dancing glass) particles and, looking up in consternation, cried, "O, mother you broke your pretty blue beads!"—Chicago Tribune. Art Crushed to Earth.

Confrsmatcaal Candidate H a s H a d W k U Experience in Business, F a r m i n g and Public Affairs G r a n t M. Hudson, candidate for the republican nomination for Congress from this district, was born on a farm in Ohio in 1868. P a r t of his boyhood was spent in Lansing, Mich., with his uncle, Martin Hudson, proprietor of the old H u d s o n House. As a young man, he learned the painter's t r a d e , and it was while following his trad* that he first came to realize the advantages of higher education. Determined to realize his ambition along this line, he worked his way t h r o u g h Kalamazoo college, graduating in 1894, and then entered the University of Chicago for his Master's degree. "" Because of ill health, he was obliged to discontinue his college work and took up farming in Kalamazoo county. In 1897 he entered the mercantile held at Schoolcraft, Mich., in a small way, the business prospering aud developing to a point where it was the largest mercantile establishment in t h a t section While he was in Schoolcraft, Mr. Hudson was a member of the school board, member of the council, and president of the village t h r e e terms, and represented his county in the state legislature during the sessions of 1905 and 1907, as well as the special session of 1906. In the legislature, he was father of what was then widely known as the Hudson Local Option bill. H e also took an active p a r t in the adoption of the bills providing for a two cent railroad fare and for direct p r i m a r y elections. In 1910, Mr. Hudson became superintendent of the Detroit district of the Anti-Saloon League, and in 1914 became state superintendent when the h e a d q u a r t e r s were removed to Lansing The adoption of the state wide constitutional dry amendment was accomplished under his leadership and direction. H e resigned from the superintendence of the Anti-Saloon League in 1919, and was appointed by Governor Sleeper a member of the state Industrial Accident Commission. He served the state in that enpaciy until the summer of 1920, when he became general director of the Michigan Baptist Convention. This position calls for n large amount of executive ability, and places him in active business control of the extensive property holdings of the Baptist denomination t h r o u g h o u t the entire state. Since Mr. Hudson sold out his mercantile business, he has been actively interested in agricultural problems, lie is thoroughly familiar with all phases of farming and farm management, as he has continuously operated a farm for many years, his holdings now comprising 320 ,icres. Mr. Hudson is a typical self-made American citizen who has achieved siuan honorary degree from Hillsdale college. He is a t n u t e e of both Kalamazoo :md Hillsdale colleges, and was for some time on the board of control of the state School for the Blind. While in the legislature, he was especially active in behalf of the Industrial School for Boys, and took a leading part in the establishment of the Western State 'formal. This spring, his home community, the city of East Lansing, elected him member of the council, and it has paid him an unparalleled tribute in recent weeks in that every republican voter who could he reached, with but twH) exceptions, signed the Hudson congressional nominating petitions. Mr. Hudwson is a t) pical self-mnde American citizen, ho has achieved success through hard work and public office through recognized public service. His wide experience in business, farming, and public affairs admirably fit hitn for membership in Congress as representative from the sixth district.

But D i k e had said nothing about •pearman. It had been Corvet, and Oorret alone, of whom Luke had s p o k e n ; M w a s Corvet whom he had accused; It w a s Corvet who had gWen him money. Was It conceivable, then, that there had been two such events In Oorvefs life? That one of these areata concerned the Mlwaka and Spearman and some one—some one "with a bullet hole above the eye"— •Who had "got" Oorret; and that the other event had concerned Luke and something else? It was not conceivable, Alan w a s sure; it was all one thing. If Corvet had to do with the Mhraka, then Luke had had to do with It too. And Spearman? But If Spearm a n had been involved In that guilty thing, had not Luke known It? Then why had not Luke mentioned Spearman? Or had Spearman not been really Involved? Had it been, perhaps, omiy evidence of knowledge of what Corvet had done that Spearman had triad to discover and destroy?

MYea?" it was plain that he not only believed but that believing gave him Immense satisfaction. He took Alan's arm and led him into the smaller library. He knelt before one of the drawers under the bookshelves—the drawer, Alan recalled, which he himself had been examining when he had found Wassaquam watching him. He drew out the drawer and dumped Its contents out upon the floor; he turned the drawer about then, and pulled the bottom out of i t Beneath the bottom which he had removed appeared now another bottom and a few sheets of paper scrawled in an uneven hand and with different colored Inks. At sight of them, Spearman, who had followed them Into the room, uttered an oath and sprang forward. The Indian's small dark hand grasped Spearman's wrist, and his face twitched itself Into a fierce grin which showed how little civilization had modified in him the aboriginal passions. But Spearman did not try to force his w a y ; instead, he drew back suddenly. Alan stooped and picked up the papers and put them in his pocket If the Indian had not been there, it would not have been BO eaay for him to do that, he thought CHAPTER X I The Land of the Drum. Alan went with Wassaquam into the front library, after the Indian had shown Spearman o u t "This was the man, Judah, who came for Mr. Corvet that night I was hurt?" "Yes, Alan," Wassaquam said. "He was the man, then, who came here twice a year, at least, to s e e Mr. Corvet T* "Yes." "I was sure of It" Alan said. "Can you tell me now why he came here, Judah?" "I have told you I do not know," Wassaquam replied. "Ben always saw him; Ben gave him money. I do not know why." Alan had been holding his hand over the papers which he had thrust Into his pocket; he went back into the smaller library and spread them under the reading lamp to examine them. But s s he looked the pages over now, he felt a chill of disappointment and chagrin. They did not contain any narrative concerning Benjamin Corvet's life; they did not even relate to a single event. They were no narrative at all. They were—in his first examination of them, he could not tell what they were. They consisted in all of some dosen sheets of Irregular size, some of which had been kept much longer than others, a few of which even appeared fresh and new. The three pages which Alan thought from their yellowed and worn look, must be the oldest, and which must have been kept for many years, contained only a list of names and addresses. The remaining pages, which he counted a* ten In number, contained nearly a hundred brief clippings from newspapers; the clippings had been very carefully cut out, they had been pasted with painful regularity on the sheets, and each had been dated across Its f a c e - dates made with many different pons J their names before?- a t The name* and addresses on these oldest, yellowed page* had been first written, it waa plain, all at the aame time and with the same pen and lak, and each sheet In the beginning had contained seven or eight names. Some of these original names and even the addresses had been left unchanged, but most of them had been scratched out and altered many times—other and quite different names had been substituted; the pages had become finally almost Illegible, irowded scrawls, rewritten again and again in Corvet's cramped hand. Alan strained forward, holding the first sheet to the light Alan seized the clippings he had looked at before and compared them swiftly with the page he had Just read ; two of the names—Westhouse and French—were the same as those upon this l i s t Suddenly he grasped the other pages of the list and looked them through for his own name; but It was not there. He dropped the sheets upon the table and got up and beran to stride about the room. He felt that in this list and in these clippings there must be, somehow, some one general meaning—they must relate In some way to one thing; they must have deeply, Intensely concerned Benjamin Corvet's disappearance and his present fate, whatever that might be, and they must concern Alan's fate as well. But in their disconnection, their incoherence, he could discern no common thread. What conceivable bond could there have been uniting Benjamin Corvet at once with an old man dying upon a poorfarm in Emmet county, wherever that might be, and with a baby girl, now Borne t w o years old, in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin? He called Wassaquam into. the library and brought the lists and clippings out again. "Do you know at all what these are, Judah?*' he asked. "No, Alan. I have seen Ben have 1 and with many different inks, but all in the same irregular handwriting as the letter which Alan had received from Benjamin Corvet Alan, his fingers numb In his disappointment turned and examined all these p a g e s ; but they contained nothing else.

"Yes, Alan." -My father took newspapers from those places, did h e not?" Wassaquam looked over the addresses again. "Yea; from all. He took them for the shipping news, he said. And sometimes he cut pieces out of them—these pieces, I s e e n o w ; and afterward I burned the papers; he would not let me only throw them away." "That's all you know about them, J u d a h r "Yea, Alan; that is slL" Alan dismissed the Indian, who, stolidly methodical in the midst of these events, went downstairs and commenced to prepare a dinner which Alan knew he could not e a t Alan got up and moved about the rooms; he went back and looked over the lists and clippings once more; then he moved about again. H o w strange a picture of his father did these things call up to him t When he bad thought of Benjamin Corvet before, It hsd been aa Sherrlll had described him, pursued by some thought h e could not conquer, seeking relief in study, in correspondence with *dontlflc sodetlea, in anything which could eagros* him and abut out memory. B a t now he must think of him, aot merely a* one trying to forget; what had thwarted Corvet'* life w a s not only in the past; it waa something still going on. i t had amazed Sherrlll to learn that Corvet, for twenty years, had kep f~ace of Alan; but Corvet had kept trace in the same w a y and with the aame Becrecy of many other people—of about a score of people. When Alan thought of Corvet, alone In his silent house, he must think of him as solicitous about these people; as seeking for their names in the newspapers which he took for that purpose, and as recording the changes in their lives. The deaths, the births, the marriages among these people had been of the intensest interest to Corvet It w a s possible that none of these people knew about Corvet; Alan had not known about him in Kansas, but had known only that some unknown person had sent money for uls support. But he appreciated that It did not matter whether they kaew about him or not; for at some point common to all of th,em, the lives of these people must have touched Corvet's life. When Alan knew what had been fhat point of contact, he would know about Corvet ; he would know about himself. Alan had seen among Corvet's books a set of charts of the Great Lakes. He went and got that now and an atlas. Opening them upon the table, he looked up the addresses given on Corvet's list. They were most of them, he found, towns about the northern end of the lake; a very few upon other lakes—Superior and Huron— but most were upon or very close to Lake Michigan. These people lived by means of the lake; they got their sustenance from it, as Corvet had lived, and a s Corvet had got his wealth. Alan was feeling like one who, bound, has been suddenly unloosed. From the time when, coming to see Corvet, he had found Corvet gone, until now, he had felt the Impossibility of explaining from anything he knew or seemed likely to learn the mystery which had surrounded himself and which had surrounded Corvet. But these names and addresses! They indeed offered something to go upon, though Luke now was forever still, and his pockets had told Alan nothing. He found Emmet county on the map and put bis finger on i t Spearman, Wassaquam had said, came from there. "The Land of the Drum 1" he said aloud. Deep and sudden feeling stirred in him as he traced out this land on the chart--the little towns and villages, the Islands and headlands, their lights and their uneven shores. A feeling of "home" had come to him, which he had not had on coming to Chicago. There were Indian names and French up there about the meetings of the great waters. The sense that he w a s of these lakes, that surge of feeling which^&e had felt first in conversation with Constance Sherrlll was strengthened an hundredfold. He gazed down at the lists of names which Benjamin Corvet had kept BO carefully and so secretly; these were his father's people, t o o ; these ragged shores and the Islands studding the channels were the lands where his father had spent the most active part of his life. There, then—these lists now made it certain—that events had happened by which that life had been blighted. North, there by the meeting of the waters, was the region of the wrong which w a s done. "That's where I must go!" he said aloud. "That's where I must go!" Constance Sherrlll, on the following afternoon, received a telephone call from her father; he was coming home earlier than usual, he said; if she had planned to go o u t would she wait until after he got there? The afternoon's mall w a s upon a stand In the ball. She turned It over, looking through It—invitations, social notes. She picked from among them an envelope addressed to herself in a firm, clear hand, which, unfamiliar to her, still queerly startled her, and tore It open. "Dear Mis* Sherrlll," she read. "I am closing, for the time being, the house which, for default of other ownership, I must call mine. The possibility that what has occurred here would cause you and your father anxiety about me in case I went away without telling you of my intention is the reason for this note. B u t it is not the only reason. I could not go away without telling you how deeply I appreciate the generosity and delicacy you and your father have shown me in spite of my position here and of the fact that I had no claim at all upon you. I shall not forget those, even though what happened here last nlgUt make* it impossible for me to try to see you again or even to write to you. "ALAN CONRAD." She heard her father's motor enter the drive and ran to him with the letter in her hand. "He's written to you, then?" he said, at sight of i t "Yes." "I had a note from him this afternoon at the office, asking me to hold in abeyance for the time being the trust that Ben had left me and returning the key of the house to me for safekeeping." "Has he already g o n e r -I suppose s o ; I don't know." "We must find e a t " She caught up Sherrlll hesitated, then assented; and they went round the block together to the Corvet house. Sherrlll, after a few Instants' hesitation, took the key from his pocket and unlocked the door and went in. The rooms, they saw, were all in perfect order; gurnaer cover* had been put upon the furniture; protecting cloths bad been spread o\w the beds upstairs. After their Inspection, they came out again at the frost door, and her father closed it with a snapping of the spring lock. Constance, as they walked away, turned and looked back at the old house, gloomy and dark among Its newer, fresher-looking neighbors, and suddenly she choked, and her eye* grew w e t That feeling w a s not for Uncle Benny ; tke drain of days past had exhausted suc> a w:rg« of feeling for him.

The address, in large s c i t w l l n g let. ters, w a s written across tiw. *rrown paper of the package which hefli been brought from the post office in fMj little resort village only a few moments before. The paper covered a shoe kox, crushed and old, bearing the nam* of "S. Klug, Dealer In Fine Shoes, M*\nl towoc, Wisconsin." The box, like the outside wrapping, was carefully SletH with a string. Constance, knowing no one In Manltowoc and surprised at the nature of the package, glanced at the postmark on the brown paper which she had removed ; it too was stamped Msoito woe. She cut the strings about the box and took off tho eover. A black nnd brown dotted silk cloth filled the box; and, seeing i t Constance caught her breath. It was—at least It wa« very like—the ttiuffler which Uncle Benny used to wear in winter. She started with trembling finger*, to take it from the box; then, rtaUi lng from the weight of the packegt that the cloth was only a wrapping or, at least, that other things were in 'h« box, she picked up box and wrapping und ran up to her room. She locked the door and put the box upon the bed; now she lifted out the cloth It was a wrapping, for the heavier thing* cams with It; and now, also, ft revealed Itself plainly as the acarf— Uo« cle Benny'a scarf! A paper fluttered out as she began to unroll it—a little cross-lined leaf evidently torn from a pocket memorandum book. It had been folded and rolled up. She spread it o u t ; writing was upon it, the small Irregular letters of Uncle Benny'i hand. "Send to Alan Conrad," she read; there followed a Chicago address—tha number of Uncle Benny'a house on Astor s t r e e t Below this was anothai line: "Better care of O c s t a n c e SherrUl (Miss)." There followed tho *ber> rills' address upon the Drive. Aad t* this w a s another correction : "Not after June 12; then to Harbor Springs, Mich.

V <! [ ( •> 1 BLACKNEY IN PINCKNEY William W. Blackney, of Flint, eun- (ttdate for the Republican Congressional nomination from the sixth district, <m the opening leg of his speaking toor inaugurated with a big political Jn&ss meeting in Flint Thursday evening, at which he addressed 3000 persons, was given an enthusiastic reception Saturday by the citizens of Livingston- County. During his tour . v Of the county Mr. Blackney delivered Bice addresses, being greeted by :V*|wgf audiences at every point. £ig>e:*king in Cohoctah, Fowlerville, t eB& Iosco, the Genesee County candidate delivered stirring addresses in Which he outlined the political issues of the day; placing special emphasis OH the transportation problem which ~fc menacing the United States and offered the development of that great natural waterway, the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River as a solution t o that problem. *'Thc completion of this project Would be the greatest boon that can be granted to the farmers and people Of the middle west of which Michigan If a part," Mr. Blackney declared. •There is a population of over forty million people in the 18 states directly affected by such an improvement and to the manufacturers and farmers of this area, the developmeut of this waterway would mean direct communication with the markets and distributing tenters of the world. "At present, in many instances, for every three carloads of grain shipped to an eastern port, two oS them are taken to defray the cost of transportation while the farmer receives the proceeds from the third. This* excessive transportation cost is due largely to the cost of lighterage and terminal charges. "With the development of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River, lighterage and terminal charges weuld be almost entirely eliminated with a saving in transportation cost estimated on alone, at $.10 a bushel. This amount saved the farmer would amount to many millions more than the $250,000,- 000 required to finance the project. "The power that can be developed from the rapids of the St. Lawrence River is estimated at four miliionss of horse power, with a cash power of $60,000,000 a year—a sum sufficient to keep up the interest on a bond issue with which to finance the project and to establish a sinking fund with which to retire the bonds. "if 1 am stmt to Congress I pledge myself to make, a careful study of tins proposition which 1 feel i» of vital importance not only to our own district and state but to the entire middle west." in closiug the speaker said, "1 believe congress to be the greatest deliberative body in the world and as a legislatve group without equal. Yet 1 believe that congress lias gradually lost that direct contact with the people necessary to real representation and that is why i have entered this race. 1 did not come before the electorate of this district at the urgent request oi my friends, the hackneyed political reason being used by many candidates but because 1 feel that it is time for Congress to get back to the people and because, if us the people's choice, 1 shall endeavor to establish direct representation to the people of this district iu the Halls of Congress." Says Uncle Ebcn. "Dtr's a heap o' gratitude," said Uncle Eben, "dat ddh't never g\t proper expression, fob de reason dat fullness of de heart is mighty liable to deprive a man of de power of gpeech-makln'." * Jl Triumph, for Value IN the past two months Firestone has built and marketed more tires than in any similar period in its history. This steadily increasing public preference is proof of the xecognition by car owners of the greater values offered by Firestone. It is a tribute to Firestone men—all stockholders in the company—all actuated by the operating principle of Most Miles per Dollar. The high average performance of Firestone Cords is without equal in the annals of tire making and is reflected by the general tendency to specify Firestone for hard service. Taxicab and bus lines, buying tires by the mile, are universally equipping with Firestone Cords. There are many reasons for the high quality of Fireston* tires but chief among the special manufacturing processes are double gum-dipping, thus eliminating internal friction by insulating each cord strand, and air-bag cure, insuring a well-balanced and perfectly shaped product Don't speculate in tires—you will find the right combination of price and quality in Firestone. Come in and let us tell you about the service these Cords are giving other car-owners whom you know. ircston GUM-DIPPED CORDS ^ ^ - ^ S o / t f bu— R. DAY BIRD W. H.

O w r * * U UrMcOum THE DRUG MAN One day there came into our midst (as often happens so) A friendly face, new to our town— the Drug Man, as you -know. He freshened up the store et once and made it up to date; He tried to be obliging from early dawn till late. He served the folks most gladly to fountain pens or pills; He labored to destroy our germs and aches and ills. His efforts soon were noticed extending through the town, And for all general uplift wc marked the druggist down. And so one day the outcome was plainly to be seen—- Our Sunday School needs workers with minds both brisk and keen. The Superintendent's office seemed waiting for this man, And so upon those duties he graciously began. He introduced new methods, he organized the men, * The Reds and Blues held contests, he labored h;ird and then— He took a mean advantage of other local boys, And stole one of our fairest girls without much fuss or noise, However, we forgave him; his helpmeet she became, And in the Federated Church they entered on life's game. Together gave their service, in music, class work, all, Until to other fields of work, they're answering the call. Regretful, yet with kindly wishes for success, Wc speed them on their journey and wish them happiness. We trust that though their paths in life lead far and far away, If through the winding valley, if East or West they stray— If on fame's towering summits, or sunlit mountain peaks They'll carry our good wishes-—both these departing "Weeks." We know they'll not be idle, we know they'll find their work, And when the call to service comes, they'll not be folks to shirk. So though we lose in Pinckney, the Cause still needs their aid, And be it pills or Sunday School, into that work they'll wade. Now just to show our feeling and grateful thanks tonight We offer this slight token, in remembrance true and bright. And when far away from Pinckney, In their busy happy life, We'll remember most sincerely Mr. Floyd Weeks and wife. —CLELLA MYRTLE FISH Only an Amateur.

The Standard Oil station nearby was also visited the same night and the proceeds for the burglars can be rep-' 1 resented by a cipher. Except for the damage done in each instance there, was no loss. These are the latest of a series of burglaries committed in Pinckney recently. Some months ago the school house was broken into and damage to quite an extent was done by the vandals, and spine cash was stolen from the Superintendent's office. More recently the elevator was broken into and between twenty and thirty dollars taken. W. H. Clark, (irand Trunk agent, says the burglar-j ies were committed by boys in his opinion; the entrances were made in the same way, by forcing windows open. ANOTHER NARROW ESCAPE HOWELL MICH.

While on his way to Howell north of the Ernest Frost farm his automobile crashed through the road fence at the ditch crossing, the Dodge catapaulting into the ditch about 8 feet below the roadbed. >lr. Mowers was* thrown tlirough the windshield and landed several feet in front of the car. F. E. Weeks, who was following, took the injured man home and the car was* taken out of the ditch and brought back to Pinckney. Mr. Mowers suffered from the shock and two bruises and at first it waa feared he was injured internally but the fears seem to be groundless as he has now almost completely recovered. Just what caused the auto to make the dive into the ditch is a mystery as the road was clear—no autos approaching. The car Itself, while damaged considerably was driven to Pinckney on its own power. It was afterward tuken to Howell for repairs. AFTER MANY DAYS Valentine G. Dlnkle says there is truth in the old saying "When thieves fall out luinest men get their just (lues."* A few months ago, while Mr. and Mrs. Pinkie were visiting in Detroit the cellar of their home here was broken into aiid a barrel of elder was taken therefrom. Mr. Dinkle made no complaint about the burglary but ke"pt <]iiiet and "bided his time." Saturday night some young men Mad .some trouble in town and before the matter was finally adju'sted the cider thief was named and Mr. Dinkle says lie now has a good chance to collect for his loss or get legal satisfaction.

Benjamin Corvet Is something of a recluse and a mystery , to his associates. After a stormy interview with his partner, Henry toeaxman, Corvet seeks Constance BharrUL daughter of his other business partner, Lawrence SherrUi, and secures from her a promise not to marry Spearman until he retuma He then disappears. Sherrill learns Corvet has written to a 0«rtain Alan Conrad, in Blue Rapids, Kansas, and exhibited strange agitation over the matter. Corvet'B letter summons Conrad, a youth of unknown parentage, to Chicago. Alan arrives in Chicago. From a statement of SherrUi it seeme probable Conrad Is Corvet'* Illegitimate son. Corvet has deeded his bouse and its contents to Alan, who takes possession. That night Alan discovers a man ransacking the desks and bureau drawers In Cor vet's apartments. The appearance of Alan tremendously agitates the intruder, who appears to think him s ghost and raves of "the Mlwaka." After a struggle the man escapes. Neat day Alan learns from Sherrtll that Corvet has deeded his entire property to him. Introduced to Spearman, Alan is astonished at the discovery that he is the man whom he had fought in his bouse the night before. Alan tells no one •f his strange encounter, but In a private interview taxes 8pearman with the fact. Spearman laughs at aad defies him. Spearman poisons Constance's mind against Alan.

"Tea/' he s a i d "Do yon believe In it?" "Not Just believe; I know. Efrery- •ody knows that it sounds for those who die on the lake. I have heard i t It sounded for my father." "How was that 7" "Like this. My father sold some bullocks to a man on Beaver Island. The man kept store on Beaver Island, '•Ian. N o Indian liked him.

Besides, It was bad weather, the beginning of a storm. "He went away, and my mother •went to pick berries—I was small thee.

I told him." Wassaquam removed the dinner and brought Alan a dessert H e returned to stand in the place across the table that Alan had assigned to him, and stood looking down at Alan, steadily and thoughtfully. "Do I look like any one you ever saw before, Judah?" Alan Inquired of him. uNo.M "Is that what you are thinking"?" "That is what I was thinking. Will coffee be served In the library,_A1 an?" Alan crossed to the library and seated himself in the chair where his father had been accustomed to s i t Wassaquaxn brought him the single small cup of coffee, lit the spirit lamp on the smoking stand and moved that over; then he went away. When he had finished his coffee, Alan went tnto the smaller connecting room and recommenced his examination of the drawers under the bookshelves. At ten o'clock, Alan stopped his search and went back to the chair in the library. He dozed; for he awoke with a start and a feeling that some one had been bending over him, and gazed up into Wassaquam's face. The Indian had been scrutinizing him with Intent, anxious inquiry. He moved away, but Alan called him back. "When Mr. Corvet disappeared, Judah, you went to look for him up at Manlstique, where he w a s born—at least Mr. Sherrill said that was where you w e n t Why did you think you might find him there?" Alan asked. "In the end, I think, a man maybe goes back to the place where he began. That's all, Alan." "In the end 1 What do you mean by that? What do you think has become of Mr. Corvet?** "I think now—Ben's dead." "What makes you think that?" "Nothing makes me think; I think It myself." "I see. You mean you have no reason more than others for thinking it; but that is what you believe." "Yes." Wassaquam went away, and Alan heard him on the back stairs, ascending to his room. When Alan went up to his own •room, after making the rounds to see that the house was locked, a droning chant came to him from the third floor. He paused In the hall and listened, then went up to the floor above. A flickering light came to him through the half-open door of a room at fl»e front of the house) he went a little way toward It and looked In. Two thick candles were burning before a crucifix, below which the Indian knelt, prayer book In hand aDd rocking to and fro as he droned his supplications. A word or two came to Alan, but without them Wassaquam's occupation was plain; be was praying for the repose of the dead—the Catholic chant taught to him, as it had been taught undoubtedly to his fathers, by the French Jesuits of the lakes. The Intoned chant for Corvet's soul, by the man who had heard the Drum, followed and still came to Alan, as he returned to the second floor. He had not been able to determine during the evening, Wassaquam's attitude toward him. Having no one else to trust, Alan had been obliged to put a certain amount of trust In the Indian; so as he had explained to Wassaquam that morning that the desk and the drawers In the little room off Corvet's had been forced, and had warned him to see that no one, who had not proper business there, entered the house. Wassaquam had appeared to accept this order; but now Wassaquam had implied that it w a s not because of Alan's order that he had refuted reporters admission to the house. Alan started and went quickly to the opon door of his room, a s he heard voices now somewhere within the house. . One of the voice* he recognlaad a s Wassaquam's; the other Indistinct, thick, accusing—was unknown to him t It certainly - w a s not Spearman's, H e descended swiftly to the first floor, and found Wassaquam standing in the front hall, alone. "Who was here, Judah?" Alan demanded- "A man," the Indian answered stolidly. "Ho was drunk; I put him o u t " "What did ho come for?" "He -came to see Ben. I pot him out; he la gone, Alan." Alan flung opon the front door and looked o u t bat bo saw no one. "What did be want of Mr. Oorret, J u d a h r 1 do not know. I told him Bon waa not bora; ho waa angry, bat ho wont away.** "Has he orar come here before r "Tea; he cornea twice." "He has been hero twice?" "More than that; orery year he comet twice, Alan.

"Always, Alan." "And you d o a t know at a n what ho came a h o u t f "Bow should I know? Wo; I do not.- P * sat sudden disappearance of the man might mean only that he had hurried away, but it might mean, too, that be was still lurking near the house. Alan had decided to make the circuit of the house and determine t h a t But as he came out on to the porch, a figure more than a block away to the south strode with uncertain step out into the light of a street lamp, halted and faced about, and shook his fist back at the house. Alan dragged the Indian out on to the porch. "Is that the man, Judah T* he dehanded. "Yes, Alan." Alan ran down the steps and at full speed after the man. But when he reached the corner, he was nowhere In sight Alan retraced his steps fer several blocks, still looking; then he gave it up and returned east toward the Drive. The side street leading to the Drive was not well lighted; dark entry ways and alleys opened on It; but the night was clear. Alan could see at the end of the street, beyond the yellow glow of the distant boulevard lights, the He Staggered, 8lipped, Fell Suddenly Forward Upon His Knees Under a Stunning, Crushing Blow Upon His Head From Behind. smooth, chill surface of the lake. A white light rode above It; now, below the white light he saw a red speck— the masthead and port lanterns of a steamer northward bound. Farther out, a second white glow appeared from behind the obscuration of the buildings and below it a green speck— a starboard light Information he had gained enabled him to recognize In these lights two steamers passing one another at the harbor mouth. His thoughts turned to Constance SherrUi. Events since he had talked with her that morning had put them far apart once more; but, In another way, they were being drawn closer together. For he knew now that she was caught as well as he In the mesh of consequences of acts not their own. He staggered, slipped, fell suddenly forward upon his knees, under a stunning, crushing blow upon his head from behind. Thought consciousness almost l o s t he struggled, twisting himself about to grasp at his assailant He caught the man's clothing, trying to drag himself u p ; fighting blindly, dazedly, unable to see or think, he shouted aloud and then again, aloud. H t seemed in the distance to hear answering cries i but the weight and strength of the other was bearing him down again to his k n e e s ; he tried to slip aside from i t to rise. Then another blow, crushing and sickening, descended on his head; even hearing left him and, unconscious, he fell forward on to the snow and lay stllL CHAPTER IX. A Walk Beside the Lake. "The name teems like Sherrill," the Interne agreed.

"The other?** T h e y ' r e only about six blocks from where be waa picked u p ; but they're on the Drive—the Lawrence gherrtllt." The interne whistled softly and looked more Interestedly at his patient's feature*.

The nurse nodded and moved oft That It w a s that t t a quarter to five Constance SherrUi waa awakened by the knocking of ono of the servants at bar father*! door. B a r father want down stairs to the telephone inks) n i g h t reply without disturbing Mrs. Bherrfll Constance, kimona over her shoulders, stood at the top of the stairs and waited. It became plain to her at once that whatever had happened had been to Alan Conrad. "Yea, . . . Yea. . . . You are giving him every possible care? . . . a t once," Bhe ran part way down the stairs and met her father as he came up. He told her of the situation briefly. "He w a s attacked on the street late last night) he was unconscious when they found him and took him to the hospital, and has bean unconscious ever since. No one can say yet how seriously he Is injured." She waited in the hall while her father dressed, after calling the garage on the house telephone for him and ordering the motor. When he had gone, ahe returned anxiously to her rooms; he had promised to call her after reaching the hospital and as soon as he had learned the puiticulurs of Alan's condition. It was ridiculous, of course, to attach any responsibility to her father or herself for what hud happened to Alan—a street attack such us might have happened to any uue —yet she felt that they were lu pun responsible. They had let him go to live iiloue in die house In Astor street with no better adviser tliun Wassail uam. Now, and perhaps becuuse Lhey had not warned him, he hud met injury and, it might be, more than mere injury; he might be dying. Something which had disturbed aud excited Alan had happened to him on the iirst night he had pussed in that houso; and now, it appeared, he hud been prevented from passing a second night there. What had preveoted him had been an attempted robbery upon the street, ner father cad said. But suppose it had been something else than robbery. She could not formulate more definitely this thought, but it persisted ; she could not deny it entirely and shake it off. To Alan Conrad, in the late afternoon of that day, this same thought was coming far more definitely and tar more persistently. He had been awake and sane since shortly after noonday. The pain of a head which ached tlnobblngiy and of a body bruised and sore was beginning to give place to a feeling merely of lassitude—a languor which revisited Incoherence upon him when he tried to think. The man who had assailed him had meant to kill; he had not been any ordinary robber. That purpose, blindly recognized and fought against by Alan in their struggle, had been unmistakable. Only the chance presence of passersby, who had beard Alan's shouts and responded to them, had prevented the execution of bis purpose, and had driven the man to swift flight for his own safety. A little before six Constance Sherrill and Spearman called to Inquire after him and were admitted for a few moments to his room. She came to him, bent over him, while she spoke the few words of sympathy the nurse allowed to her; she stood back then while Spearman spoke to him. In tinsucceeding days he saw her nearly every day, accompanied always by her father or Spearman; it was the full two weeks the doctors had insisted on his remaining In the hospital before he saw her alone. They had brought him home, the day before—she and her father, In the motor—to the house on AlStor street. He had Insisted on returning there, refusing the room In their house which they had offered; but the doctor had enjoined outdoors and moderate exercise for him, and she had made him promise to come and walk with her. He went to the Sherrill house about ten o'clock, end they walked northward toward the park. 'There Is something I have been wanting to ask you," she said. "Yes." "That night when you were hurt—It was for robbery, they said. What do you think about It?" She watched him as he looked at her and then away; but his face was completely expressionless. "The proceedings were a little too rapid for me to judge, Miss Sherrill." "Bat there was no demand upon you to give over your money before you were attacked?" "No." She breathed a little more qnlckly. "It must be a strange sensation," she observed, "to know that some one has tried to kill you." "It must. Indeed." "You mean you dldnt think that fie tried to kill y o u r **I w a s hardly in a condition. Miss Sherrill, to appreciate anything about the man at all. Why do you ask?" "Because—" She hesitated an Ins t a n t "11 you were attacked to be killed, It meant that you must have been attacked as the son of—Mr. Corv e t Then that meant—at least tt Implied—that Mr. Corvet w a s killed, that he did not go away.

"Mr. Sherrill didn't feel that it was necessary for him to do anything, even though he thought that?" "If Mr. Corvet was dead, we could do him no good, surely, by telling this to the police; if the police succeeded in finding out all the facts, we would be doing only what Uncle Benny did not wish—what he preferred death to. We could not tell the police about it without telling them all about Mr. Corvet, too. So father would not let him. self believe that you had been attacked to be killed. He had t o believe the police theory w a s sufficient" Alan made no comment at once. "Wassaquam believes Mr. Corvet Is dead," he said tinally. "He told me so. Does your father believe that?" "I think he is beginning to believe it." "I've not told any one," he said, now watching her, "how I happened to be out of the house that night. I followed a man who came there to the house, Wassuquain did not know his name* He did not know Mr. Corvet was gouej for he came there to soe Mr. Corvet He was not an ordinary friend of Mr. Corvet's; but he had come there often, Wassaquam did not knu^* why.

"That was not the first man who came to the house," he we*t un quickly, a» she waa uhout to speak. "I found a man In Mr. Corvet's house the tirst night that I spent there.

"He was going through Mr. Cm vet « things--not the silver and ail that, but through his desks and hies and cases.

There is one fact women should consider and thatis this. Women sufferfroni irreguiaritiesand variousforms of weakness. They try thi3 and that doctor, at) well as different medicines. Finally they take Lydia E. Pinkham's Compound; and Mrs. Sherman's experience is simply another case showing the merit of tnia well-known medicine. If your family physician fails to help you and the same old troubles persist, why ian 't it reasonable to try Lydia £ » Pinkham's Vegetable Compound? Her Curiosity. The audience held its breath witb> amazement as the acrobat swung high above the rostrum, held only by a frail cord looped uround one foot. Somewhere among the spectators s> liit ic girl arose from her seat. "Mamma," she shouted, breaking t h e silence, "can you do that?" The lady tried to quiet her, but t h e child persisted In demanding whether or not her mother had ever climbed ropes or done anything of this sort. At lust, embarrassed by the attention which the child was attracting, t h e mother jerked the child into the seat, warning. "You Just wait until I get home!"

The Keddle boy replied that his mother would not allow him to go in. However Austin went in and when about four rods from shore suddenly sank. The body did not come to the surface. A coroner was called who decided that an inquest was unecessary. WM. W. BLACKNEY Of Flint, Michigan Republican Candidate FOR CONGRESS Sixth Congressional District At Primaries, Sept. 12, 1922 Th« Sixth Congretsjona*. District includes Genelee, Oakland, Livingston, Ingham Counlic* and part of Wayne County. FARM BUREAU NOTES CONDITION OF CROPS The average codition of nearly all crops in the State according to the August 1 report issued is slightly lower than .i month ago. This is mainly due to a lack of rainfall during .July in the southern four tiers of counties. The drought became quite serious in St. Clair Macomb, Wayne and portions of nearby counties toward the end of the month. The rainfnl was ample in contra] and southern Michigan and all crops were in a generally thrifty condition. Some hay was damaged while .being cured by the frequent rainfall in those portions of the State. The yields of w h e a t and rye proved to be disappointing in many localities as has been the case in surrounding states Fruit and truck crops promise well. BLIGHT IN POTATO AREAS That late blight is actually menacing the potato crop of Michigan has been evidenced within the last few days by the receipt of specimens of plants Inj e c t e d with the disease at the botany d e p a r t m e n t of M. A. C. The danger from blight due to cold wet weather in the early part of the season, was pointed out not long ago by Dr. G. H. Conns, plant pathologist, who recomended thorough spraying with Bordeaux mixture as a preventative measure. The disease is said to be threatening potato fields in the Upper peninsula and in many counties of the lower peninsula, I In spite of the fact that there wasn't any work done on Boys' and Girls' Club Work until .June first, they have made a place for themselves. The selection has been made in cooperation with the Boys' and Girls' Club dep a r t m e n t of M. A. C. on a basis of the work that has been done. Word was received by County Agent C. L. Bolander last week that Livingston County has been selected as one of these four to get a free trip to the State air. These t e a m s will compete at the State F a i r for the free trip to the International Livestock Show. The boys from. Livingston County who are competing fo rthe high team are W a r d Stowe, Glenn A r m s t r o n g , H o w a r d Wilson, Iosco Original Club; Glenn Gibson, Ralph Copeland, H a n d y Didit Club; and Harold Lawson, Robert Borden, Spencer Worthington, H o m a g o Club. These boys go to East Lansing the 18th and 19th to get instructions at M. A. C. for the finals. Three of the other counties will have delegates there at the same time to be drilled. The boys will go to M. A. C. under the leadership of W a r d Andrews Club leader for the H o m a g o Club. It is the aim of the County Agent to have all the Club members from the County to exhibit at the County Fair at Howell With seventy five livestock exhibits to be shown at the County Fair; about two hundred cans of canned goods to be exhibited by the twenty three canning club girls, and the work of one sewing club, it should make an addition to the Fair that will be quite noticeable.

The dust or mud, the grease and grime, the tedious delay—all are things we like to avoid But the time to think about these things i* when you buy the tire—not after the blow-out occurs. For some tires blow out much more easily than others. Outward appearance counts for little. It ia the material te the tire and the construction of it that determines its strength. Qoodyear recognizes these facta and all Goodyear Tires are made of long staple cotton. Take the 30 x 3 # Cross Rib Clincher Tire here illustrated, for example. It ia made of Egyptian and Arizona cotton, tht fibres of which average \yi inches long. Many 3 0 x 3 ^ clincher tires are made of abort staple cotton from yi inch to l H inches long. This means less strength and greater danger of blow-outs—more tire troubles. Yet this high grade guaranteed Goodyear Tire coats only $10.95. You can buy some tires for even leas than this but none with the fine materials and construction of this one. Can you afford to take a chance on more frequent 'tire troubles for the sake of the slightly lower price Of cheaper tires?

"Geroniino, a Chirlcahua Apache chief, nuHinnhed about 1880," reads one entry In the biographical section. J u s t how well this Geronlmo "nourished" only the residents of N e w Mexico a n d Arizona and the soldiers who chased him can tell. T h e y called him the "Indian Devil," the "Apache Terror" a n d the "worst Indian w h o ever lived." H i s mother n a m e d him Go-Yath-Lay, "The Y a w u e r " ; the Mexicans n i c k n a m e d him Geronimo, Spanish for J e r o m e . Like S i t t i n g Bull of the Sioux, Gerunimo w a s a much press-ugented and eventually a highly-overrated Indian. Although he w a s a daring w a r leader, lie w a s not a chief. T h e massacre of.hib w h o l e family by M e x i c a n s lu the early '00's sent him on the warpath a g a i n s t them. The blundering policy of our g o v e r n m e n t t o w a r d s the Apaches w a s largely responsible for his hostility toward A m e r i c a n s . It Is difficult to justify thus s o m e of the c r u e l t i e s practiced by Geronlmo and his Chirlcahua warriors, past musters In the art of hideous torture.

When the g o v e r n m e n t tried to s e t t l e the Chlrleahuas on the San Curios reservation, Arizonu, in 1876, G e r o n i m o and some of the other young l e a d e r s fled to Mexico.

In 1[)03 he adopted the Christian rellglou and became a devout church-goer. H e joined a Wild West show and in 1004 he attended the St. Louis exposition, where he ultnost got writer's crump from printing his autograph to sell. The last y e a r s of his life were spent in trying to p e r s u a d e the g o v e r n m e n t to retuiu him to his old home in Arizona.

A That is bad," said Nalche, chief of the Chiricahua Apaches, to the elder of his two w i v e s one day. "I will cure you." So he threw a cartridge into the chamber of his ritie and shot her through the knees. Marital troubles of that sort seemed to run In Nalehe's family. An a r m y ofiicer who visited old Cochise, his father, In 1873 in the Dragoon mountains, Arizona, noticed that the c h i e f s hand w a s badly burned in t w o circular holes. H e asked about them and Cochise explained that they had been m a d e by his younger wife, who w a s jealous of the older. She had bit him so badly that he had to cauterize the wound.

REST OF PROGRAM DROPPED Administration's Ship Subsidy Measure Evidently Hasn't a Chance of Getting Through During th« Present Ssasion of Congress. By JAMES P. HORNADAY Wasnington.—The senate which has been struggling along with the wool schedule of the tariff bill—not a most desirable hot-weather topic—would not make much of a protest if President Harding should suggest that the tariff bill be abandoned and thia session of the congress brought to an end. But the President does not Intend to make any such suggestion. He feels that the Republican majority in congress, having undertaken a revision t>f the tariff, should complete the J6b. Whether he will sign any kind of an old bill which Is presented to him is a question which will not be answered tinttt congress completes a revision. The* senate could, of course, recommit the tariff bill to the committee on finance any day if it desired to do it and that would pigeonhole the subject for this session, but the Republican leadership in the senate, such as there is, much as it would like to be rid of t h e tariff bugaboo, has not the courage to advocate pigeonholing the bill. Af for the rest of the legislative program, it has gone by the board, apparently. The real problem before the Republicans in the two branches of the legislative body now is to get the tariff bill through before the heat of the congressional campaign comes on. No one any longer prophesies as to yrhen the senate will finish with the bill in its present form. The controversial nature of the proposed legislation makes it certain that the bill will be in conference a good while. Then after an agreement in conference— the conferees may almost completely rewrite tbe bill If they decide that is the thing to do—each legislative branch will take plenty of time to decide whether it favors the conference report. "October 1 Set as the L i m i t Ninety-five per cent of tbe members of the house of representatives will Insist on an adjournment of this session not later than October hi order that they may give proper atteution to their campaigns for re-election, and one-third of the senators will be In the same frame of mind. So It Is generally agreed that the tariff legislation must be In the hands of the President by the last week In September. Most of tbe Republican leaders are setting their heads very determinedly against attempting any other important legislation in the meantime. It is now about as certain as anything can be, short of the actual development, that there will be no ship subsidy legislation at this session. President Harding, according to persons who are competent to speak, has practically abandoned hope of getting the administration subsidy bill started durlng this session. The nation-wide campaign in the Interest of the measure, much talked about six weeks ago, will not be undertaken. The members of the house of representatives—the Republican members in particular—who were to have set this campaign going during the recess of the house, have not done a thing. There is no attempt to conceal the administration's keen disappointment over the failure of the Republican representatives to take the time during their stay at home to tell the people about the fine points of the proposed subsidy legislation. So far as the administration is advised, not a single speech in favor of fehip subsidy has been made by a member of the house since the recess came on. Not a Chance for Subsidy Now. The outlook now is that the powersthat- be in the house of representatives will decide soon after August 15, the date on which the house is to reconvene, that subsidy legislation must go over. President Harding said publicly some time ago that he would recall the congress if it should adjourn without giving the administration's trabsidy bill due consideration, but a good many things have happened since the President made that observation. As a matter of fact the administration Is not interested at all Just now in legislative matters. The President and his advisers are too much concerned with the Industrial situation to give any special thought to anything else. Even If the house should under pressure from the White House pass the subsidy bill, the legislation will be pigeonholed In the senate. President Harding during the last few days h a s made It a little clearer perhaps than ever before that if bonus legislation should be passed without any provision for getting the money with which to pay the service men, he would veto the bill. The Republican leaders In the senate now understand perfectly well how the President feels tUwit this legislation and the chancer ttiat an effort will he made to put a b o n v bill through following the passage of the tariff bill are dally becoming W>re remote. Country Ssfs From Invasion. The Nstional Defense Act of 1920 prescribes that "the organised peace! •tUbllsboBent Including the regular i army, the National Guard a&i the organised reserves, shall include all of those divisions and other military organizations necessary to form the basis for a complete and immediate mobilization for the national defense Ua the event of a national emergency declared by congress." So far as the defense of the continental United States is concerned, the law evidently contemplates as a minimum requirement for security that the country should be definitely organized to prevent an Invasion in force at the outbreak of hostilities. The military experts say that before the World war such a definite and comprehensive plan was impracticable. Our military resources were too limited and there was no legal sanction for the development of such a system. Since the World war, with the large number of war-trained >«Bcers available, with the initlattb*. of a system for the training of younger men ultimately to replace them, with more adequate sources of military equipment and material, and with a settled legal sanction for the development and training of our traditional citizen arm? in time of peace, the general staff has been able to prepare definite plans for what has aptly been termed "A National Position in Readiness." Under this plan, the military organizations required to secure critical landing places on the coast line and favorable lines of advance upou the land frontiers can be definitely formed and prepared. Defense Is Assured. With such an initial organization assured, the additional military units required for the full prosecution of a serious war can be mobilized at once and brought to full strength without disturbance or interruption. With the territory thus protected against landings in force at the start, and with the machinery for further military ex* ' pansion fully organized, the fleet will be free to deal with the hostile naval forces without concern as to possible invasion. General Pershing says he Is pleased to report that the plans for the "National Position In Readiness" have reached a stage where their practicability, 1^ assured. With 18 divisions and appropriate auxiliaries of the National Guard, supplemented by the regular army prepared for necessary expansion, and with certain special units formed in the organized reserves, the country would be able to cover the coasts and land frontiers against serious Invasion at the start. Behind I this first line, tbe remaining units of 1 the organized reserves, fully const! I tuted with a framework of officers and | non-commissioned officers, will be pre* pared to undertake the training of : their raw recruits at once. The country will thus be able de llberately to develop its military powef to any necessary extent without risk i of serious disaster through surprise at ' the outbreak of war, and without thft necessity of maintaining a burdensome military establishment in time of peace. Such a military organization causes no menace to any other nation, ; hut assures the impregnability of the ; -mtinpntal T'nlted States in the event of attack by any possible hostile combination, General Pershing says. What General Pershing Says. "It Is recognized that the citizen components of the army of the United* States can be only partially trained prior to mobilization," continued the general. "While national defense comprises more than the preservation of our continental Integrity, the initial accomplishment of such security will afford time for the orderly development of our great military resources. Therefore, the permissible minimum of peace training is that required to prevent invasion at the outbreak of war. "For purposes of illustration, let it be assumed that a National Guard division Is assigned the initial mission of defending a given beach section. Upon mobilization the combatant elements of this division at peace strength would be ordered to a training area within reach of this section, which would be prepared for defense. Thereafter It would be practicable to complete the mobilization, equipment and training of the division at war strength. Continuous development in the beach position would not be necessary after its preparation for defense. The troops could be moved back to a convenient training area and could rely upon naval and air reconnaissance to give ample warnings of a possible attack. Thus the initial mission for this division determines the minimum degree of training which mu8t be assured In time of peace, the extent t o which It must be Initially supplied with equipment, and the place where it will have Its original concentration." i True I Detective Stories FOURTH DEGREE Hostile to Dogs and Men.

I no, TIERE was but little doubt in the mind of Thomas Byrnes, superintendent of police in New York city, that Louis Hanier had been murdered for the. sake of the money that he was carrying with him at the time. The little Frenchman had been the proprietor of a cafe, and, having a fear of the banks of America, had the habit of carrying hundreds of dollars in his wallet until the opportunity presented itself of purchasing an international money order. One morning he was found dead in the vestibule of his home, a .88 caliber bullet through his heart, and his pocketbook missing. That was all Byrnes bad to work upon, for there were no indications whatever of the persons who had committed the crime. The dispatch with which the matter had been bandied, appeared to point to a professional criminal, so Byrnes gave orders that all the pawnshops In New York were to be closely watched, and reports made to him of the pawning of any ,38 caliber revolvers. Investigation of the dozen or more .38's pawned during the week which followed the Hanier Bhooting, showed that all but one of them had been pledged by persons who very evidently had no connection with the murder. The single exception was one Michael McGloin, whom the pawnbroker in question Identified by means of his photograph in the Rouges' gallery. McGloln's gun had been pawned on the morning after the murder, and, while the police had little difficulty in locating the man himself, there was not a shred of evidence to connect him with the Hanier case, beyond the fact that he had been absent from home on the night of the shooting In the company of four of his boon companions. Quietly, and without allowing a word of his intentions to leak out, Byrnes rounded up the quintet one at a time, none of them knowing that the others were being arrested. Each of them was lodged in a cell by himself and questioned closely as to hi* actions and his whereabouts at the time of the murder, in spite of the fact that Byrnes had definite information that the five men hRd been together, each of them told a different story, and each claimed to have been alone, at n considerable distance from iho Hanier house. "It's no use, inspector," said one of the policemen who had been working on the case about a week after the five men had been picked up, "you can't get a thing out of 'em. They know, all right, but you can't convict any of 'em without a confession—and we've tried everything. Including the 'third degree.' " "Very well," said Byrnes quietly, "we'll have to try the fourth degree." "Fourth degree? What's that?" "Just a little way of getting at the truth when a man wants to hold out on you,'' v.-ns Byrnes' answer. "You think there's no doubt that McGloln's the man? Have him brought to this office tomorrow morning, promptly at ten o'clock." At the time specified, McGloin, sullen and resentful at what he claimed was an Illegal detention, walked into the inspector's office, alone. Had he been interested in such details, he might have noted that Byrnes was seated so that he could watch the window of his office which looked out upon a corridor, and also keep an eye upon the occupant of the only chair In the room, bolted to the floor in front of the desk. But McGloin wasn't worrying about such trifles. He was there to demand his release, and he told the Inspector so in no measured terms. "That's all right, McOloln," replied Byrnes. "Sit down a minute. I've several things to attend to," and he motioned to the chair, placed so that It too commanded a view of the corridor window. A moment later the office door opened and a man came In. Byrnes, watching the guuman closely, saw that he was barely able to suppress a start—for the visitor was the pawnbroker w i t h whom McGloin had pledged his revolver. Without saying a word, the pawnbroker crossed the room, laid McGloln's gun on the Inspector's desk and walked out. "Neat litt>e boy." remarked Byrnes, picking up the revolver. "Ever see It before?" "Never," growled McOloln. "I thought not," was the reply. "It's the gun that Hanier, the Frenchman, was shot with. We've finally got a line on that case, after working on It for over a month. Found a man who was a witness of the shooting—" At this moment, by a prearranged signal, one of McGloln's partners was marched past the corridor window. "Yes," continued Byrnes, appearing not to notice the gunman's agitation, u and we've also found s man who was present"—at which the second of the quintet was ushered past the window— "and two others who have confessed their part in the robbery but who claim that the man who fired the shot was . . ." "Slop it, for God's sake, chief P cried the half-crazed msn In the chair, his nerves shattered by the solitary confinement and the marshalling of evidence under his very eyes. "Stop It! I didn't mean to do It, but—I shot htm!" "Score one for the fourth degree,'" mused Byrnes, Lots for Your Money Should Not Tempt You USE The Economy BAKING POWDER That's W h a t Millions of Housewives Do —They know that Good Baking Powder can't be sold for less; that "More for the Money" means bake-day.failures, waste of time and money, that BEST BY TEST Calumet is pure and sure.

STORK MADE LONG JOURNEY Bird Flew From Africa to Germany W i t h a Message From Exile to the Fatherland. The population of Llskau, Germany, noticed one day recently that one of the many storks which annually return to the neighborhood from distant southern zones to rebuild their nests was carrying something about Its neck which only human hands could have fastened there. Repeated efforts to approach the bird had failed, but one of the villagers tinally lured the stork Into his barn and then and there learned that the bird carried a little leather case In which a note was Inclosed. The note revealed that the stork had come all the way from East Africa, where & German colonist, Willi Bucha, has tils little farm near Victoria lake. Bucha must have anticipated that the bird spent his annual vacation In his beloved fatherland, so he wrote: 'Just a greeting to the fatherland." and used the stork to convey his message.

In the view of Secretary Mellon, as explained at the treasury, the United State 8 has all to lose and nothing to gain through an all around cancellation of an International war debt and such a suggestion has never been considered by this government. The British note, according to Mellon, in no way changes the attitude ot the United States toward the expected liquidation of foreign indebtedness and will not alter its intention of continuing negotiations for funding the foreign obligation. Latest figures obtained at the treasury department showed the obligations of the various foreign governments to the United States, Including interest, accrued and unpaid, is close to J12,- 000,000,000. Of this amount Great Britain owes $4,746,000,000. The loans of Great Britain to her allies during the war totalled $8,765,- 496,000. This does not include $699,- 840,000 loaned by the British governments to the United States, dominions and colonies. The total loans of the United States under the Liberty loan act, not including unpaid Interest, were $9,434,000,000 so that the original amount of the loans of the British were about equal to those of the United States. Senator McCumber, North Dakota, chairman of the senate finance committee, and second in rank among the Republican members of the influential foreign relations committee, reflected the overwhelming view of the majority in congress. "We will never cancel our war debts," said Senator McCumber. "There is a very pronounced sentiment in the United States that our war debts should be taken up as soon as possible." "I am opposed to cancellation of war debts," said Senator Lodge, Massachusetts, Republican leader in the senate, "I favor liberal termB of settlement, however." FUEL ADMINISTRATORS NAMED State Agencies Co-operate W i t h U. S. in Relieving Coal Shortage. Washington—The appointment of state fuel agencies to co-operate with the federal government in relieving the coal shortage was announced laBt week by Federal Coal Distributor Spencer. William W. Potter, of Hastings, lawyer and member of the state public utilities commission, will have charge of the distribution of all fuel coal which will be shipped into Michigan or mined within the state*, under the direction of the federal fuel administration at Washington and the interstate commerce commission. Mr. Potter was appointed state fuel commissioner by Governor Alex J. Groesbeck. Secretary of Labor Davis issued a statement Tuesday night approving the action of President Lewis of the United Mine Workers in trying to secure a conference with bituminous operators of the central competitive field in Cleveland to end the coal strike. "PLUMB PLAN" AUTHOR IS DEAD Counsel for Railroad Organizations Passes After Long Illness* Washington—Glenn E. Plumb, counsel for the 16 larger railroad organizations and author of the celebrated "Plumb plan" of railroad operation and ownership, died August 1. Death was due to an affection of the heart from which he had suffered for several months. Mr. Plumb, a native of Iowa, came into national prominence in 1918 when he advanced the plan for railroad operation that bears his name as a solution for the problem of poet-war treatment of the transportation lines then under government control and operation. In brief his plan was nationalisation of the carriers with control vested in directorates in which the public, the executive staffs of the lines and the railway employes should should have equal representation. Tug and Crew Blown Away. New York—The harbor tug, Edward, was blown to pieces and the five men of her crew were killed when her boiler exploded, while she lay In her slip on the Brooklyn side of the Baal river three blocks upstream from the Manhattan bridge. There was a heavy puff of smoke and clouds of steam, and through this was shot high into the air the entire superstructure. When the steam floated away only oil'was to be seen floating where the tug had been. MARKETS U. a BUREAU OF M A R K E T * W a s h i n g * * * O. C 'vt (Week ending August 3rd. 19S2.)

"All tfiese a d m i n i s t r a t i v e " - departm e n t s are connected by telephones, I t a k e it," said Assistant S e c r e t a r y Clifford one day to a member of his office force. "Oh yes, w e h a v e perfect telephone service between the d e p a r t m e n t s , " was the response, "Well, I think we will use t h e telep h o n e In transacting some of this business instead of writing so many l e t t e r s , " said Clifford. T h a t was the first step in the reform that has been successfully accomplished. Clifford soon learned that t h e 24 usslstant secretaries, four In the D e p a r t m e n t of J u s t i c e , four In t h e P o s t Office d e p a r t m e n t , one In the Navy department, one In tlie Department of Commerce, and one In the Dep a r t m e n t of Labor, were not even acquainted.

Secretary Mellon'e Victory. Apparently Andrew YV. Mellon, secretary of the treasury, h a s won a big victory over the Kepublican politicians who set out to force him to resign.

After all, as things turned out, the b u r e a u dismissals w e r e probably a good t h i n g for t h e government service. T h e y served to call attention to a prog r a m set u p by the spoilsmen for a g e n e r a l raid on t h e d e p a r t m e n t s . T h e esaployees who were dismissed have sjearly all obtained positions outside *>f t h e government service at much better p a y t h a n they * e r e receiving when dismissed.

Dover for a few m o n t h s after bis appointment waa the most p o p u l a r office holder in Washington. Republican s e n a t o r s a n d r e p r e s e n t a t i v e s believed t h a t they h a d in him a faithful friend. M e m b e r s of t h e Republican national committee heralded tne fact t h a t at last t h e r e w a s one m a n c o n n £ 0 e d with t h e a d m i n i s t r a t i o n who w a s in favor of p u t t i n g out Democrats, even though they w e r e in t h e classified service. Some of t h e high-up Republicans were so enthusiastic a t t h a t p a r t i c u l a r time a s to believe t h a t sooner or later Dover would succeed Mellon a s secret a r y of the t r e a s u r y . While the Intriguing w a s going on. Secretary Mellon remained silent. When it c a m e time for him to t a k e a s t a n d he simply said t h a t the politicians could not run t h e t r e a s u r y department, a n d that so long a s he w a s s e c r e t a r y they would not be p e r m i t t e d to h a v e any hand w h a t e v e r in the administration of the d e p a r t m e n t . In the end, the President h a d to choose between Mellon and Dover. Although he had appointed Dover a t the solicitation of the Republican politicians, he could not afford to let a satisfactory secretary of the t r e a s u r y go in order that he might keep a m a n who w a s in g r e a t favor with the spoilsmen. And so after n e a r • ly t h r e e m o n t h s of turmoil Dover de> elded to get out. Professional Politicians Vexed. T h e professional politicians a r e very much distressed over the Dover resignation. T h e y feel t h a t the President bus to some extent gone back on them. With Dover out there is no one in the service of the government In an Imp o r t a n t capacity to whom they can turn with confidence. Newly appointed cabinet officers, w h a t e v e r their personal Inclinations may be, soon learn that they cannot permit the political spoilsmen to Interfere with the gove r n m e n t ' s business. T h r e e or four m e m b e r s of the present cabinet are not wedded to civil service, but not one of them Is willing to t a k e on himself the responsibility of t e a r i n g down t h e merit system In his d e p a r t m e n t . Unquestionably the civil service law needs revision, but every well-informed person realizes that the merit system is here to stay. T h e system has at least two ardent supporters in the cabinet. T h e s e are Charles E v a n s Hughes, secr e t a r y of state, and Herbert Hoover, secretary of commerce. Neither of these men has given the slightest consideration of politics in making appointments in his d e p a r t m e n t . It Is true that Republican politicians have been appointed to the diplomatic service since Mr. H u g h e s became secretary of state, but they are without exception personal appointees of the President. The one question Secretary Hoover asks of an applicant for a place in his d e p a r t m e n t is " H a v e you any special qualifications for this particular place?" Ready for Navy Scrapping. The Navy D e p a r t m e n t Is ready to begin the work of scrapping 28 battleships the day Great Britain, Prance, Japan, Ital> and the I'nited States exchange ratification of the t r e a t y limiting naval a r m a m e n t s , it Is estimated that It will cost $70,- (K>o,00O to wreck these fighters of the sea. T h e vessels to be destroyed, new and old, are estimated to represent an outlay of $50().000.000. Most of this money was er.pended on battle cruisers and battleships not yet completed but on which construction was started. It was figured that the United S t a t e s has invested in these new vessels about $330,000,000. Add to this the cost of the 15 old capital ships that a r e to be scrapped, and the halfbillion mark is not far away. T h e fifteen old ships range from the Maine, 20 y e a r s old, to the Michigan, 13 years old! T h i r t e e n uncompleted vessels, six battle cruisers of most m o d e r n type and seven battleships a r e also to go. T h e battleships range from 11 to 75 per cent completed, the a v e r a g e being about one-third. The doomed battle cruisers a r e from 12 to 35 per cent complete. However, two of the cruisers are to he converted into airplane carriers— t h e t r e a t y permitting this—and the a c t u a l scrapping will apply to only four cruisers. The Lexington and the Saratoga, each 33 per cent complete, h a v e been selected for airplane carriers. T h e remaining four cruisers— Constellation, Ranger, Constitution and the United S t a t e s — m u s t be used as t a r g e t s or sold for t h e metal t h a t is in them. In disposing of all t h e vessels, old a n d new, the naval board recommends t h a t they "be disposed of by sale unless, sunk by gunfire." However, It ts explained a t t h e Navy D e p a r t m e n t , It is h a r d to sell war vessels. They are unsulted for merchant use because of the weight of their a r m o r a n d small freight-carrying capacity. Their machinery will fit into no other ship, a n d t h e expense and inconvenience of removing t h e machinery are practically prohibitive. The most t h a t can be expected Is a buying order from i o m e one who w a n t s to strip t h e vessels of their metal and furnishings. Indications are, therefore, t h a t most of t h e condemned vessels will be towed to sea and sunk. The Navy Dep a r t m e n t , nevertheless, h a s already sold two of t h e vessels—the Maine and the Missouri. E a c h w a s bought for Junk purposes. L Clones of ° GREAT INDIANS By ELMO SCOTT WATSON t i Copyright, Hit, W«*tera Newspaper Laion. "CROW DOG SAY HE COME"— WAS READY TO DIE WH E N Spotted Tall, backed by t h e military whom he had aided, usurped the head chieftainship of the Brule Sioux, his high-handed act w a s bitterly resented. Chief Crow Dog (Kangi Sunka) took a vow to kill the head chief if ever he disgraced the n a m e of the Sichangu (Brules). Years passed. Spotted Tall, drunk with power, misused his high office for personal ends. His people murmured but were powerless. Then he coveted the wife of Medicine Bear and, coveting, took her. Crow Dog, a relutlve of Medicine Bear, remembered his vow. On August 5, 1SS1, he met Spotted Tail and shot him deud, after which he gave himself up. H e was tried at Deadwood, S. D., convicted of murder and sentenced to be hanged. Crow Dog asked permission to say farewell to his family, promising to return on the day set for the execution. When Crow Dog did not show up the next day, Indian police were dispatched to get him. H e was not at home and his wife told them t h a t the chief had wished to return to prison alone and would surely keep his promise. The next day the chief walked into the Jail -at Rapid City. "Crow Dog say he come," was his laconic reply to the surprised greeting of his jailer. Meanwhile efforts were being made to save his life by a stay of execution. His case was carried to the Supreme court of the United States which ruled t h a t t h e federal courts had no Jurisdiction over crime committed by one Indian against another on a reservation. So Crow Dog walked out of prison a free man. Ten years later Crow Dog was In the limelight again, as one of the Brule leaders who fled from the Rosebud agency during the (J host Dance craze to join the Ogallalas In the Bad L a n d s . The Brule chief was soon convinced that their cause was hopeless and he counselled surrender. But the irreconcllables were still eager for war. They caught up their rifles and threatened to shoot those who wavered. Seeing this Crow Dog drew his blanket over hla head. "I do not wish to know who would be guilty of slay'ng a brother Dakota," he said. His words so Impressed the warriors that civil war was averted and the hostlles sullenly filed into the agency to surrender. It was Crow Dog's last w a r trail. From that day he lived in peace on the Rosebud reservation until his death August 12, 1912. C A P T A I N G E O R G E S W O R D DEF I E S HIS T R I B E S M E N ODDS of 120 to 1 a r e not usually considered a good sporting chance, yet Capt. George Sword (Miwakan Yulia—"Man Who Carries a Sword") once took them—and won 1 At the time he was captain of the Indian police on the Pine Ridge reservation, recently organized by Agent McGllllouddy In face of the bitterest opposition from Red Cloud's Ogallalas, T h e last great Sun Dance of the Sioux, held at Red Cloud's camp in 1881, was attended by 10,000 Ogallalas and 2,000 Brules from the Rosebud reservation. One morning a Brule chief called on McGtlllcuddy and In a most offensive m a n n e r demanded food. The agent ended the Interview by kicking him out of the door. Wild with anger the Indian rode away t h r e a t e n i n g to kill every white man on the reservation. McGtlllcuddy had only nine white men with him at the time, and although Sword and his 100 policemen were near at hand, they were an unknown quantity when it should come to fighting their own people. But the agent was not long left In doubt. Suddenly a band of Indians, stripped to w a r bonnet, breech clout and moccasins, dashed up to the agency. It was Sword and his policemen. They had discarded their uniforms and In the costume of Sioux w a r r i o r s were ready to come to death grips with their own people in defense of their white chief. Within an hour t h e Brule chief was back with 400 warriors, and although they made a most threatening demonstration before the agency, they were so impressed by the determined front presented by Sword and his men that they did not attack. T h e next day McGllllcuddy's party, escorted by Sword's policemen, went to t h * Sun Dance. J u s t before they reached the Indian camp, Sword put his company through a mounted drill, then suddenly breaking his cavalry formation, he led them in a wild charge straight at the big camp. Round and round the village his young daredevils circled, shouting their w a r cries and shooting over the heads of their people so fast that the bullets were dropping on the lodges like hail. It was his challenge to the tribe—100 defying 12.100! His bluff was not called. For years Captain Sword w a t captain of police and judge of the Indian court. He helped turn his peopie from the pursuits of war Into the p a t h s of peace. His reward? In his old age be begged the government for a pension but his plea w a s never granted.

Today, a s you walk along the street, notes a fashion writer In the New York Times, you are not impressed by the general dowdlness of female human nature, but you a r e quite overcome by the general smartness which t h e crowd as a whole reo- Long, Loose Coat of Heavy White Crepe Embroidered in Black and Lined With Red. resents. Not only are there a few high lights In the way of smart suits and dresses, but the common tenor of the crowd holds you spellbound with the air of fashionable attire that predominates. It may be that all of the dresses that women are wearing have suddenly taken a leap as regards their character and tone. But certain It Is that the street clothes have established a brand-new standard. Time was when women on the street or at functions where street clothes were demanded all looked more or less alike. There was a fixed standard from which it was not possible to deviate to any large extent. Now all that Is changed in the most miraculous and Interesting way. Every woman ymi meet Is different from the last. Each one lias something, it seems, that is original about the gown or suit sin* has chosen to wear. Each one seems bent upon exhibiting her own individuality to the full extent of her personal powers. And for these reasons, there has come about this subtle change in the appearance of the dressing of the crowd. Then, among all of the existing good dressing, there stand out above all the rest certain spots that are oven more beautiful than the rest and others which have about tlicni that air which says "We shall lead the fash- Ions of a coming season." It Is interesting tct notice them as you go about. Those with distinction above the ordinary find no ditheulfy in asserting their own. They are not by miv means ornate nor overt rimmed with extra additions. They are, on the contrary, conspicuous for their extreme simplicity and the brilliance of perfection with which their designers have carried out the idea of the elimination of detail. The silk coat 1« a development of this season which serves, more than any other one achievement, to make the general tone of the dressing of the women reach a much higher level. It Is not so heavy that it can be culled hot, but, on the other hand, it has that air of formality which so notably tits it for wear upon the street. White Coat of Crepey Silk. One of the newest of these coats happens to be made of white. Its material is one of those heavy, crepey silks which have about them so much body and so much character that the\ are fit to be classed in this connection with woolens of any variety, weight or weave from which these coats are made. Then, because the weight of silk Is so Inconsequential a thing. It can afford to have n lining, and just here is where the chief beauty of the wtioie situation enters. For the linings, thin season, are carrying about with them in their secluded roles n great deal of the style and distinction which Is the portion of these modern coats. And again. Just as is the case with the white silk cont. these newer wraps offer a fine opportunity for placing of t h e big, beautiful bands of handworked embroidery that play so conspicuous a part in giving the style and droop and hang to the coat once its lines have been perfected as a basic idea. The white coat, for Instance. Is supplied with a wide band of black embroidery along the bottom of the front panel, and that Idea Is repented on the sleeves. Then the lining for this wrap is done in cherry-red crepe de chine of the very softest quality, so that glimpses of t h a t hot and glorious color against the outer surface of black and its contrasting white m a k e just t h e prettiest sort of a picture. And t h e dress worn under a w r a p of this sort sinks into obscurity because of the beauty of t h e outer covering. It can be either a plain black dress or one of white that 1B designed quite without trimming, for the coat supplies all of the dash of decoration and color that could possibly be desired. Coata Match Dreaaes. T h e costume suit, which w a s so loudly heralded in the fall h a s carried over into summer with all of Its finest points to the fore, and It bids fair to lie one of those things which, In the fall, we will cling to an an inspiration not to be foresworn. One of the very latest ones is the long-walsted, s h o r t - p e p l u m e d coat. There Is every attraction h e r e of feminine grace and charm, and at the same time the suit, either with its coat or without It, lias every a t t r i b u t e of dignity to carry along with It. The dress portion of this costume suit is m a d e from a combination of that soft, cream-colored French cotton crepe, and the skirt is made from u lemonyellow ratine. Now those two materials are, to be sure, only the foundations. Upon them a r e superimposed many bands and lines of embroidery done in stitches of mercerized cotton in colors of black, brown, sparkling red and white. On the blouse these handwurked bands contain all of the colors, but when it comes to the skirt only the black and the white threads are used, and the s::me Is true of the b e l t m a d e oi . • I ,i;> -d p e^e of Mi ratine. Then i: coal is • ,a e , same fabric that goes to make the skirt of the frock worn underneath it. And the little jacket Is further embellished by bands of a dyed kolinsky fur carrying the softest of the darker tones of brown. The coat Is lined then with a soft, cream-colored silk having a smooth surface which t u r n s buck on the collar and cuffs and shows becomingly against the neck and against the puffed sleeves of the cotton crepe which jut out underneath the wide cuffed sleeves. One nice thing about the skirt to this frock is the way It pleats In on the sides. This gives a sufficient amount of room for walking, and at the same time it keeps that trig, straight look. Golden Brown Crepe. Another dress designed for street wear and worn, Indeed, by the very smart woman In New York was made of a golden brown crepe. The skirt had a straight panel at front and at back, white at the sides were these inserted sections of narrow side pleat- Ings. At the base of the skirt the li'tle pleats were tacked together so that the skirt pulfed nut above that point in a sort of harem fashion. Worn with this skirt there was a c;ipe jacket with loose and ilowlng sleeves through which oilier puffed sleeves of a Russian blouse bodice were seen to protrude. This little bodice of white had lines of Russian embroidery in tones of yellow and brown marching around the collar and down the front, w h i l e t h e e n d ' of i h o s l e e v e s h a d Long-Walcted Jacket Made to Wear With Dress of White Cotton Crepe and Ratine. frills over the bands peeping out from another band of the brightly colored Ruslan stitches. It Is wonderful to see how many women, and well dressed and good bulking women, too, have adopted the Russian blouse for serious wear upon the street. And these blouses, when they are at their most a t t r a c t i v e stages, are not made as a d a p t a t i o n s of the original ones, but they are Indeed those original models In their pristine state.

There was no pretense of courtesy now in Spearman's manner; he sat motionless at his desk, his bold eyes fixed on Alan intently. Alan dosed the door behind him and advanced toward the desk. MI thought we'd better have some explanation," he said, "about our meeting last night" "Our meeting?" Spearman repeated; his eyes had narrowed watchfully. "You told Mr. Sherrlil that you were in Duluth and that you arrived home in Chicago only this morning. Of course you. don't mean to stick to that story with me?" "What are you talking about T Spearman demanded. "Ot course, I know exactly where you were a part of last evening, and you know that I know. I only want to know what explanation you have to offer." Spearman leaned forward, "Talk sense and talk It quick, if you have anything to say to me!" "I haven't told Mr. Sherrlil that I found you at Corvet's house last night ;• but I don't want you to doubt for a minute that I know you—and about your d—g of Benjamin Corvet and your cry about saving the Mlwaka!" A flash of blood came to Spearman's face; Alan, in his excitement, was sure of it; but there was just that flash, no more. He turned, while Spearman sat chewing hla cigar and staring at him, and went out and partly closed the door. Then, suddenly, he reopened it, looked in, reclosed it sharply, and went on his way, shaking a little. For, as he looked back this second time at the dominant, determined, able man seated at his desk, what he had seen In Spearman's face was fear; fear of himself, of Alan Conrad of Blue Rap- Ids—yet it was not fear of that sort which weakens or dismays; it was of that sort which, merely warning of danger close at hand, determines one to use every meant within his power to save himself. Alan, still trembling excitedly, crossed to Corvet's office to await Sherrtll. It was not, he felt sure now, Alan Conrad that Spearman was opposing; it was not even the apparent successor to the controlling stock of Corvet, Sherrlil and Spearman. That Alan resembled some one—some one whose ghost bad seemed to come to Spearman and might, perhaps, have come to Corvet—was only incidental to what was going on now; for in Alan's presence* Spearman found a threat—an active, present threat against himself. Alan could not Imagine what the nature of that threat could be. 'Was It because there was something still concealed in Corvet's house which Spearman feared Alan would find? Or was it connected only with that some one whom Alan resembled? e e e e e e Constance Sherril^f most active hought that day was about Henry Spearman, for she had a,luncheon en* gagement with him at one o'clock. The tea room of a department store offers to young people opportunities for dining together without furnishing reason for even innocently connecting their names too intimately, if a girl is not seen there with the same man too often. There is something essentially casual and unpremeditated about it— as though the man and the girl, both shopping and both hungry, had Juat happened to meet and go to lunch together. As Constance recently had drawn closer to Henry Spearman In her thought, and particularly since she had been seriously considering marrying him, she bad clung deliberately to this unplanned appearance about their meetings. She glanced across at him, when she had settled herself, and the first little trivialities of their being together were over. "I took a visitor down to your office this morning," she said. "Yea," he answered. 'Constance was aware that it was only formally that she had taken Alan Conrad down to confer with her father; since Henry was there, she knew her father would not act without his agreement, and that whatever disposition bad been made regarding Alan had been made by him, e e e e e e "Did you like him, Henry? I hoped you would." He did not answer at once. The waitress brought their order, and he served her; then, as the waitress moved away, he looked across at Constance with a long scrutiny. ••You've seen a good deal of him, yesterday and today, your father tells me,H he observed. "Yea," "It s plain enough you like him," he remarked. She reflected seriously. 'Tea, I do; though I hadn't thought of It Just that way, because I was thinking most about the position he waa in and about —Mr. Corvet But T do like him." "So do I," Spearman said wltb a seeming heartiness that pleased her. "At least I should like him, Connie, if I bad the sort of privilege you have to think whether I Uksd or disliked him. Pve bad to oonsldor him from another point of flow whethoi I could trust him or most distrust him." •'Distrust?" Constance bent toward him Impulsively in her surprise. "Distrust him? In relation to what? Why?" "In relation to Corvet, ShervUl and Spearman, Connie—the company that involves your interests and your father's and mine and the Interests of many other people—small stockholders who have no Influence in Its management, and whose Interests 1 have to look after for them." MI don't understand, Henry." *Tve had to think of Conrad this morning in the same way as I've had to think of Ben Corvet of recent years —as a threat against the interests of those people." Her color rose, and her pulse quickened. Henry never had talked to her, except in the merest commonplaces, about his relations with Uncle Benny; it was a matter in which, she had recognized, they had been opposed; and since the quarrels between the old friend whom sfc« had loved from childhood and he, who wlsh»d to become now more than a mere friend to her, had grown more violent, she had purposely avoided mentioning Uncle Benny to Henry, and he, quite as consciously, had avoided mentioning Mr. Corvet to her. "I've known for a good many years," Spearman went on, reluctantly, "that Ben Corvet's brain was seriously affected. He recognized that himself even earlier, and admitted it to himself when he took me off my ship to take charge of the company. I might have gone with other people then, or it wouldn't have been very long before I could have started in as a ship owner myself; but in view of his condition, Ben made me promises that offered me most. Afterward his malady progressed so that he couldn't know himself to be untrustworthy; his Judgment was Impaired, and he planned and would have tried to carry out many things that would have been disastrous for the company. I had to fight him—for the company's sake and for my own sake and that of the others, whose Interests were at stake. Your father came to see that what I was doing was for the company's good and has learned to trust me. But you for the Joy of overwhelming others by his own decisive Btrength and power. And she had been almost ready to marry that man for his strength and dominance from chose qualities; and now she knew that he was merciful too—Indeed, more than merciful. In the very contest where she tad thought of him ae most selfish and regardless of another, she had most completely misapprehended. "I ought to have seen!" she rebuked herself to him. "Surely, I should have seen that was It 1" "How could you see?" he defended her. "He never showed to you the side he showed to me and—In these last years, anyway—never to me the side he showed to you. But after what has happened this week, can you understand now; and you can see why I have io distrust the young fellow who's come to claim Ben Covert's pla^-e." "Claim!" Constance repeated. "Why, Henry, I did not know he claimed anything; he didn't even know when he raine here—" "He seems, like Ben Corvet" Henry said slowly, "to have the characteristic of allowing one aide to you, another to me, Connie. With you, of course, he claimed nothing; but at the office— Your father showed him this morning the instruments of transfer that Ben sevms to have left conveying to him all Ben had—bts other properties and his Interest an Corvet, Sherrlil and Spearman. I very naturally objected to the execution of those transfers, without considerable examination, in view of Corvet's mental condition and of the fact that they put the controlling stock of Corvet, Sherrlil and Spearman In the hands of a youth no one ever had heard of—and .one who, by hit own story, never had seen a ship until yesterday. And when 1 didn't dismiss my business with a dozen men this morning to take him into the company, he claimed occasion to see me alone to threaten me." "Threaten you, Henry? How? With what?" "I couldn't quite make out myself, but that was his tone; he demanded an 'explanation,' of exactly what, he didn't make clear. He has been given by Ben, apparently, tho technical control of Corvet, Sherrlil and Spearman. His Idea, if I oppose him, evidently is to turn me out and take the management himself." Constance leaned back, confused. "He—Alan Conrad?" she questioned. "He can't have done that Henry! Oh, he can't have meant that!" "Maybe he didn't; I said I couldn't make out what he did mean," Spearman said. "Things have come upon him with rather a rush, of course; and you couldn't expect a country boy to get so many things straight He's acting, I suppose, only in the way one might expect a boy to act who had been brought up in poverty on a Kansas prairie and was suddenly handed the possible possession of a good many millions of dollars. It's better to believe that he's only lost his head. I haven't had opportunity to tell your father these things yet; but f wanted you to understand why Conrad will hardly consider me a friend." T i l understand you now, Henry," she promised. "You've Seen a Good Deal of Him, Yesterday and Today, Your Father Tells Me," He Observed. —you couldn't see that quite so directly, of course, and you thought I didn't —like Ben, and there was some lack in me which made me fail to appreciate him." "No; not that** Constance denied quickly. "Not that, Henry." "What was it then, Connie? You thought me ungrateful to him? I realize that I owed a great debt to him; but the only way I could pay that debt was to do exactly what I did— oppose him and seem to push Into his place and be an lngrate; for, because I did that Ben's been a respected and honored man in this town all these last years, which he couldn't have remained if Td <et him have his way, or If I told others why I had to do what I did. I didn't care what others thought about me; but I djd care what you thought; yet If you couldn't see what I was up against because of your affection for him, why—that was all right too." "No, it wasn't all right" she denied almost fiercely, the flush flooding her cheeks; a throbbing was in her throat which, for an instant stopped her. "You should have told me, Henry; or —I should have been able to see." '"I couldn't tell you—dear," he said the last word very distinctly, but so low that she could scarcely hear. "I couldn't tell you now—If Ben hadn't gone away as he has and this other fellow come. I eouldnt tell you when yon wanted to keep caTlng so much for your Uncle Benny, and he was trying to hurt me with you." She bent toward him, bar lips parted; but now she did not speak. She never bad really known Henry until this moment, she felt; the bad thought of him always as strong, almost brutal, fighting down fiercely, merclleotly, bis opponents and welcoming contest CHAPTER V I I I . Violence, At half-past threa, Alan left the office. Sherrlil had told him an hour earlier that Spearman had telephoned be would not be able to get back for a conference that afternoon; and Alan was certain now that In Spearman's absence Sberrill would do nothing further with respect to his affairs. Was there no ope whom Alan could tell of hit encounter with Spearman In Corvet's house, with probability of receiving belief? Alan had not been thinking directly of Constance Sherrlil, as he walked swiftly north to the Drive; but she was, In a way, present in all his thoughts. As he approached the Sherrlil bouse, he saw standing at the curb an open roadrter with a liveried chauffeur; he had seen that roadster, he recognised with a little start, in front of the office building that morning when Constance had taken him downtown. He turned Into the walk and rang the bell. The servant who opened the door knew him and seemed to accept his right of entry to the house, for he drew back for Alan to enter. Alan went Into the hall and waited for the servant to follow. "Is Miss Sberrill InF he asked. "I'll see, sir." The man dUappeared. Alan, waiting, did not hear Constance's voice in reply to the announcement of the servant but Spearman's vigorous tones. The servant returned. "Miss Sherrlil will see you In a minute, sir." Through the wide doorway to the drawing room, Alan could see the J smaller, porUered entrance to the room beyond—SherrlU's study. The curtains parted, and Constance and Spearman came Into this inner doorway; they stood an instant there in talk. As Constance started away, Spearman suddenly drew her bock to him and kissed her. Alan's shoulders spontaneously Jerked back and his hands clenched; be did not look away I aware that be bad She came to him, very quiet and very fluahed; then she was quite pale at the asked him, "You wanted me?" Ha was white as the, and could not speak at once. "You told me last night. Miss Sherrlil," he said, "that the last thing that Mr. Corvet did—the last that you know of—was to warn you against one of your friends. Who waa t h a t r She fluahed uneasily. "You mustn't attach any importance to that; I didn't mean you to. There was no reason for what Mr. Corvet said, except in Mr. Corvet's own mind. He had a quite unreasonable animosity—" "Against Mr. Spearman, you mean.* She did not answer. "His animosity was against Mr. Spearman, Miss Sherrill, wasn't itl That Is the only animosity of Mr. Corvet's that anyone has told me about" "Yes." "It was against Mr. Spearman thai he warned you, then?** "Yesi." "Thank you." He turned and, not waiting for the man, let himself out lie should have known It when he had seen that Spearman, after announcing himself as unable to get back to thi office, was with Constance. He went swiftly around the block U his own house and let himself in at tht front door with his key. The house was warm; a shaded lamp on the tabU in the larger library was lighted, a firs was burnlng'-in the open grute, and the roomB had b«>eu swept and dusted. Tb* Indian came into the hail to take his coat and hat "Dinner is at seven," Waassquaia announced. "You want some change about that?" "No ? seven is all right." Alan went upstairs to the room next to Corvet's which he had appropriated for his own Use the night before, and found It now prepared for his occupancy. When he came down again to the first floor, Wasseeuam was no where about, but he board sounds la the service rooms on the basement floor. He went part vay down the service stairs and saw the Indian in the kitchen, preparing dinner. Wassa* quam had not heard his approach, and Alan stood an instant watchlag tht Indian's tall, thin figure and the quick movements of his disproportionately small, well-shaped hands, almost Ukt a woman's; then he scuffed his foot upon the stair, and Wassaqusja turned swiftly about "Anybody been here today, Jldabr* Alan asked. "No, Alan. I called tradesmen; they came. There were young men from UN newspapers." "What did you tell them?" "Nothing." "Why n o t r "Henry telephoned I was to tod them nothing." "You mean Henry Spearman?" "Yes." "Do you take orders from him, t% dan?" "I took that order, Alan." Alan hesitated. "You've been beta in the house all day?" "Yes. Alan." Alan went back to the first floor as4 into the Bmaller library. The roots was dark with the early winter dusk, and he switched on the light; then he knelt and pulled out one of the drawers he had seen Spearman searching through the night before, and carefully examined the papers in It one by one, but found them only ordinary papers He pulled the drawer completely on! and sounded the wall behind it and tht partitions on both tides but they ap» peared solid. He put the drawer back In and went on to examine the next one, and, after that the others. The clocks In the house bad been wound, for presently the clock In the llbrarf struck six, and another In the hat) chimed slowly. An nour later, whet the clocks chimed again, Alan looked up and saw Wassaquam's small block eyes, deep set In their large eye aockr eta, fixed on him intently through tht door. How long the Indian had bees there, Alan could not guess; bo baa not heard his step. "What are yon looking for, AiftaT the Indian asked. Alan reflected a moment "Mr. She* rill thought that Mr. Corvet migH have left a record of tome tort hers for me. Judah. Do you know of any* thing like t h a t r "No. That it what you are looking; for?" "Yes. Do you know of any pines where Mr. Corvet would have boos likely to pjjt away anything like thatr" "Ben put papers in all these drae* era; he put them upstairs, too—where you have seen." "Nowhere else, Judah?" "If he put thinga anywhere elsa, Alan, I have not osen. Dinner it served, Alan." Alan went to the lavatory on the first floor and washed the dust from hit hands and face; then he went into the dining room. Wasaaquam, bavins, served the dinner, took his place be> bind Alan's chair, ready to past him what he needed; but the Indian1! silent watchful presence there behind him where he could not tee his face disturbed Alan, and be twitted him self about to look at him. "Would you mind, Judah," be b> quired, "if I asked yon to stand ova? there instead of where you are?" The Indian, without answering moved around to the other side of thi table, where he stood facing Alan. "They say that the D m wromg wkea the hfiwaka t dews." (TO B B OONTTNUXD.)

The subjects discussed range from a definition of the term "green manuring," which means "the turning under of any crop, while green or soon after ripening, for the purpose of soil improvement," to descriptions of the many crops that are used for land betterment in most regions of the United States and In some other countries. The use of special green-manure crops, says the bulletin, is much more general in the South than in the North. In the semi-arid regions, for reasons made clear, under dry farming green manures are not used, but in Irrigated areas in the West orchardlsts depend upon them to a great extent to lncreuse the yield of fruit. Crops Benefit Soil. These crops that are grown primarily as roughage for feeding the soil produce both chemical and physical effects that are of benefit to plants that succeed them. When a green-manure crop is turned under, the various fertilizing elements that have gone Into the making of the crop ure returned | to the soil, and a quantity of organic matter not before in the soil Is added, nnd, in addition to Improving the physical condition, serves us food for beneficent bacteria. One of the most important functions of organic matter . in the i*>n is to keep up the nitrogen supply. The bulletin gives three ways in which this is done: (1) Growth of nodule bacteria on roots of leguminous plants; (2) the making of nitrates by soil bacteria from organic nitrogen in the soil ; and (3) growth of bacteria and molds that feed on plant waste in the soil and take nitrogen directly from the air. These processes may be stimulated by adopting the proper practices and suitable crops. Satisfactory Cover Crops. Legumes are of course the most satisfactory cover crops under most conditions, and all legumes do not have the same strain of nodule bacteria. For instance, that of clover is different from that of alfalfa, and j that of the cowpea is distinct from that of the soy bean. These selective associations of plants and bacteria make inoculation of the soil necessary where the crop has not been previously grown, either by scattering soil from a field where the crop to be sown has been grown recently or by using an artificial culture. A strain of bacteria will often inoculate differor where the soil Is poor and in need of organic matter, a green crop may often be worth more if turned under. It la known that the turning under of a green-manure crop may effect the yield of subsequent crops even to the third year, and this fact should have weight when the question of selling a legume hay crop or turning it undei is considered. A Regular Farm Practice. Green manuring in some form should be part of the regular farm practice on most of the farms east of the hundredth meridian and on irrigated land elsewhere. Rotations should be arranged so as to work In a green manure crop between regular crops without sacrificing direct money or feed crops. Preference should be given to a legume if possible. The value of these crops Is determined by the quantity of humus formed, measured by the tonnage of the crop, the physical changes brought about In the soil, and the quantity of nitrogen taken from the air and added to the soil. There are probably other factors that are as yet but little understood. It is said that green manure in orchards checks certain diseases and Improves the quality of the fruit. Order of Importance. The leguminous crops grown In this country listed in the bulletin in order of importance a r e : lied clover, alfalfa, alsike clover, sweet clover, cowpeas, peanuts, soy beans, velvet beans, ! An Excellent Stand of Alfalfa. crimson clover, field peas, vetch, Japan clover, bur clover, and white clover. A few others, such as beggarweed, grass peas, fenugreek, and horse beans are grown to a small extent In restricted localities. Non-leguminous crops that are considered as useful green manures are grasses, buckwheat, weeds, and some plants of the mustard family that are used more In Europe than in this country. The bulletin contains more than 40 pages of valuable Information on these plants and the ways of handling them; also tables of results that show their value in Increasing Returns. A copy may be obtained free by addressing the Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. A Field of Soy Beans, a Good Horns- Grown Feed, Rich In Protein and Excellent for Dairy Cows. ent closely related legumes. Alfalfa, bur-clqver, and sweet clover nodules are produced by the same strain; a different strain Inoculates moat of the vetches, as well as the field and garden peas; still another strain is apparently used In common by red, white, alsike, and crimson clovers. The question often arises, whether a crop should be turned under for green m ana re, fed on the farm, or sold as hay. Tlie authors sum op the argument as follows: Where a forage crop can be grazed or advantageously fed and the manure returned to the land, this will be found most profitable. Where Insufficient live stock la kept ERADICATION OF ALL WEEDS One of Most Serious Agricultural Problems Is Prompt Destruction of Noxious Plants. There Is nothing which has a graver menace to agriculture than our noxious weeds. It is all right to think of serious marketing problems and economic subjects, but the solution of these is not a bit more Important than the prompt eradication of Canada thistle, quack grass and other norious weeds. Town, city and village must lend mutual strength to the warfare on weeds. It Is a community problem, a personal issue. ROBBING SOIL OF FERTILITY Of Utmost Importance That Land Be Kept Fertile With Manure and Phosphorus. If farmers continue to rob the soli of its natural store of fertility, what is the next generation of human beings going to do" for food? Our best soils can produce profitably only 30 to 40 years unless they are*kept fertile, with manure, clovers, and finally phosphorus. | True i Detective Stories i i x * OUT OF THE AIR OopyrifJU by Tb« Wheeler Syndicate, lac. SOMEWHERE, somehow, the Germans were getting messages through from the United States to the fatherland. That much was certain. Washington knew it beyond the shadow of a doubt, but the way in which the messages were transmitted was a mystery—dark and apparently unfathomable. This was In the days before America entered the war, in the days when the United States was, theoretically at least, a neutral nation. But Von Bernstorff, Von Papen and the rest of the embassy at Washington were doing everything they could to further their schemes from this side of the Atlantic. But not even the secret service could penetrate the mystery of the messages. That these were flashed from the huge wireless towers on this side of the Atlantic, or relayed from the German radio stations, seemed fairly obvious. But how? "They must be sending the stuff through the air," argued the chief of the secret service to Talbot, one of his best men, "for the simple reason that we've closed all their other channels." "Any idea as to the code they are using?" asked Talbot. "None at all, but it's probably concealed somewhere In the messages which they send out to the ships at sea—press bulletins, stock quotations, and the like. We've studied them carefully, but haven't been able to find a thing." "How„ about the outburst from Nauen every morning?" "The only explanation for that seems to be that it's an attempt to 'fog the air* so that ships and other towers can't get anything through." "Yes, but in that case would the Germans send It for an hour early every morning? Why not all day long? And why that hash of language that doesn't mean a thing? If they were trying tx) fog things they'd wireless the Bible or Nietzsche or excerpts from some other long book instead of that mess of meaningless rot." "All right," retorted the chief, "if you think there's a clue there, go to It." But Talbot didn't begin his investigations with a study of the. Nauen "hast." He made his way at first to the laboratory of Charles E. Apgar, a deep student of wireless telegraphy. It was to Apgar that he told his troubles and, when he had Mulshed, the expert leaned forward and picked up something from the table in front of him. "See that?" Apgar asked. Talbot nodded. "Looks like an old-fashioned cylindrical phonograph record," he said. ".lust what it is," admitted the expert, "only YOU use it in connection with a wireless phonograph." "A wireless phonograph'.'" and the government operative's voice showed that he had never heard of such a contrivance. "Yes, a phonograph attached to the receiving end of a radio station. I finished working on it a few days ago, and I think it's Just what you need for this job. It wUL.f^ord and keep track of every sound that comes Into the station, enabling you to 'listen In' on messages months after they have been sent. With a supply of these records and the necessary patience you ought to be able to figure out the system the Huns are using, without their being any the wiser. It may take weeks or even months, but it's just a question of being everlastingly at it." Apgar was right. Talbot found that it took him nearly four months to get on to the system—four months of ceaseless llstenlng-in at the end of a De Forest audion detector which picks up sound waves from thousands of miles away, and even then he would never have located the secret had It not been for the wax cylinders. But with the aid of these automatic detectives he was able to repeat each message until he had it almost by heart, trying out the various combinations and symbols until he stumbled across the right one. Then, one morning, when the chief of the secret service least expected him. he burst Into the office with the exclamation : "I've got it—the fifth, tenth and fifteenth flashes! See?" nnd he held out a sheet of paper on which we-e row upon row of figures and letters, commencing with "5—8—K—14—B." "Looks Interesting," admitted the chief, "but what does It mean?" "Got a German dictionary here? No—well. I have. Luckily It's an old edition—Just the one they're using for the code. The lptters give the numbers of the pares, and the figures designate the words, the big ones in hold type. Five and eight K means the fifth and eighth words on page eleven. 14 B means the fourteenth word on page two, and so on. By spacing 'em so far apart in the meaningless wireless messages—or even in the press bulletins sent out from this side— they are able to fill In with tots of stuff to throw you off the scpnt. But the code's simple enough—that's what makes it such a wonder:" And It wasn't until Von Bernstorff received his sailing orders that he knew the secret service had been plucking his messages and* his Instructions out of the air. through the Ingenious use of a wax phonograph cylinder. When Baby Complains/ "THERE ARE MANY WAYS a baby has of expressing any pain or Irregularity * or digression from its normal condition of health and napjjiness, A short sharp cry, a, prolonged irritated cry. Restlessness, a constant turning of the head or of the whole boay, fretful. In these and other ways a baby tells you there is something wrong. Most mothers know that a disordered stomach, or bowels that do not act naturally are the cause of most of baby's sufferings. A call for the doctor is the first thought, but in the event of any delay there should be ready at hand a safe remedy such as Fletcher's Castoria. Castona has been used for baby's ailments for over 30 years and has merited the good will of the family physician in a measure not equaled by any other baby:s medicine because of its harmlessness and the good results achieved. And remember this: Castoria is essentially a baby's remedy and not a cureall for every member of the family. What mignt help you is too often dangerous when given to a babe.

U. S. POWERLESS, SAYS PRESIDENT HARDING TELLS GOVERNOR T H A T GOVERNMENT CANNOT INTERFERE NOW. " JAMES H, WILKERS0N MINERS REFUSE STATE'S PLEA President of Union Refuses to Cooperate In the Plan Suggested By Gov. Groesbeck.

The President's letter was in reply to a telegram sent by Gov. Groesbeck when he Informed the President that he was asking John L. Lewis, president of the United Workers, to grant Michigan miners permission to enter agreements independently of their national affiliation and return to work. The Governor answered the President's letter by writing that he could not concede that the Federal Government has not the power "to protect our citizens from the embarrassing situation that faces us." President T. Leo Jones, of the Michigan mine workers, rtfused to co-operigan mine workers, refused to co-operate in the move suggested by the ference at Saginaw last week. The refusal was brought about partly by the miners' disgruntlement over alleged discrimination by Michigan consumers in favor of Kentucky and Pennsylvania producers, Jones hinted.

Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America, for permission to accede to the governor's request.

Taking the period from January 1 to June 30, the federal reserve board reports Detroit had an increase of 1.5 per cent over the same period for the preceding year. But the spurt ln trade during the month of June outrivaled that of any preceding month. Cleveland during the same period reported a decrease in business of 4.6 per cent compared to last year. Chicago reported a decrease of three-tenths of one per cent. In fact the only cities to report an Increase during this period, compared to the same period the year before, were Detroit and Los Angeles. Detroit retailers have had such a heavy business revival that they report a decrease in stocks on hand during June, compared with same month last year, of 4.2 per cent. Most other cities show an increase of stocks on hand over last year. For Instance, In the Boston federal reserve district, the merchants have 11 per cent more stock on hand than they had last year; Cleveland, five per cent; ShJsa.so, four per cent. St. Louis Merchants apparently are carrying vefy, little stock. They sold nine per cent less during January to July, compared with last year} and at the same time they have a five per cent decrease in stocks on hand. fOUR BEATEN IN STRIKE RIOT Police Flyer Called To Break Up Mob at Bay City. Bay City. Mich,—Pulled from the bus on which they were riding to work, by an angry mob of strikers, four men, employes of the Bay City shops of the Michigan Central, were beaten in Sunday strike rioting. A mob of nearly 200 strikers had gathered around the shop entrance in spite of police orders that such gatherings would not be tolerated, and It was as the men were going on for the night shift that the disorders broke out. The strike-breakers, some with their coats torn from them, finally rushed away from the mob and gained the shop entrance, There they were given medical treatment. Police flyers were rushed" to the scene of the rioting, and the men speedily dispersed as the patrolmen charged. RATIONING OF COAL STARTED Government Distributes Supply According to Need of Industries. Washington—The government with the co-operation of the states on Monday assumed the duties of gigantic middleman, passing on the coal from the producing mines to the industries and localities which, in the eyes of the government need it most. Just how much coal the government can count on remains a matter of speculation. The first test of the response to President Harding's invitation tt> the mine owners to open their properties was revealed Sunday in the weekly report issued by the geelogist survey which showed an estimated production of bituminous for last week of 3,900,000 tons as compared with 3,700,- 000 tons the week previously TWO KILLED IN PLANE CRASH Flyers Lose Lives When, Broken Propeller Causes Nose Dive.

When Alan went to his room, the valet appeared 'and, tndlng that Alan was packing, the saan offered his service. Alan let jtUja pack and went downstairs; a motor had just driven up to the house. It proved to have brought Constance and her mother; Mrs. Sherrill, after Informing Alan that Mr. Sherrill might aot return until some time later, went apstairs and did not appear again. Oonstaace followed her mother but, ten minutes later, came downstairs. "You're not staying here tonight V •he asked.

"I *t tike to think of you alone over daera." "My father sautt have been often along there.** "Tea," she said. "Tea." She looked laat him Quickly, then away, chocking a ajieatloa. She wanted to ask, he knew, what ho had discovered in that lonely which had so agitated him; for •Vag/ra Nat ttaytna Hero Toaiqhtr* she aad aottcad agttatloa la Aad ho aad lataadod to toil bar, aor father.

SherriU further had said that Benjamin Corvet, if ho had wished Sherrill to know those circumstances, would have told them to him; but Corvet had not done that; Instead, be had sent for Alan, his son. He had given his son his confidence. Sherrill bad admitted that he wag withholding from. Alan, for the time being, something that he knew about Benjamin Corvet; it was nothing, he had said* which would help Alan to learn about his father, or what had become of him; but perhaps Sherrill, not knowing these other things, could not speak accurately, as to that Alan determined to ask Sherrill "what he had been withholding, before he told him all of what had happened In Corvet's house. There was one other circumstance which Sherrill had mentioned but not explained; it occurred to Alan now. "Miss Sherrill—" he checked himself. "What Is l t r "This afternoon your father said that you believed that Mr. Corvet's disappearance was in some way connected with you; he said that he did not think that was so; but do you want to tell me why you thought itT' "Yes; I will tell you." She colored quickly. "One of the last things Mr. Corvet did—in fact the last thing we know of his doing before he sent for you—was to come to me and warn me against one of my friends." "Warn you, Miss Sherrillf How? I mean, warn you against what7" "Against thinking too much of Mm." She turned away. "I think I'll come to see your father In the morning," Alan said, when Con* stance looked back to him. "But you'll come over here for breakfast in the morning7" "You want m e f "Certainly." "I'd like to come very much." "Then I'll expect you." 8he followed him to the door when he had put oa his things, and he made no objection when she asked that the man be allowed to carry his bag around to t h e other house. When he had dismissed Simons and re-entered the house on Astor street he found no evidences of any disturbance while he had beea gone. On the second floor, to the east of the room which had been, his father's, was a bedroom which evidently had been kept as a guest chamber; Alan carried his suitcase there and made ready for bed. The sight of Constance Sherrill standing and watching after him in concern as he started back to this house, came to him again and again and, alBO, her flush when she had spoken of the friend against whom Benjamin Corvet had warned her. Who was he? It had been impossible at that moment for Alan to ask her more; besides, if he had asked and she had told him, he would have learned only g name which he could tfot place yet la any connection with her or with Benjamin Corvet Whoever he was, it was plata that Constance Bherrill "thought of him;" lucky man, Alan said to himself. Yet Corvet had warned her not to think of him. . . . Alan turned back his bed. It had been for him a tremendous day. Barely twelve hours before he had come to that house, Alan Conrad from Blue Rapids, Kan., now . ' . . phrases from what Lawrence Sherrill had told him of his father were running through his mind as ho opened the door of the room to be able to bear any noise in Benjamin Corvet's house, of which ho was aole protector. The emotion roused by his first sight of the lake went through him again as he opened the window to the east Now—he wag in bed—he seemed to bo standing, a specter before a man blaspheming Benjamin Corvet and the souls of men dead. "And the Bale above the eye 1 . . . The bullet got yon 1 . . . So It's you that got Ben 1 . . . Hi get you I . . . You can't save the Miwaka I" The Miwaka 1 The stir of that name wag stronger now even than before; it bad been running through his con. sdousoess almost constantly since he had beard It He jumped up and turned on the light and found a pencil Ho did not know how to spell the name and It wag sot necessary to write It dowa; the name bad* taken on that deflnlteneag and lneffaeeableness of a thing which, once heard, can never agala bo forgotten. But la panic that bo might forget bo wrote It messing at the opening—"Miwaka." It wag a name, of coarse; but the name of what? It repeated and repeated itself to him. after bo got back Into bod, until ltg very Iteration made him drowgy* Outside, the gale whistled aad shrieked. The wind, passing ltg last reoUtanco after Its sweep across the prairies before tt leaped upon the lake, battered and clamored in Its asjtault aboat the house. But as Alan became sleepier, bo board it no longer as It rattled the window* aad howled under tba oavoa aad over the roof, but as out oa the lake, above the roaring and lcacraaealng waves, K whipped and circled with its cam the tee-ghroaded gfetoa of struggling »**pe. So, with the roar of surf sad fata ta big eara, aa went to sleep with the solo conscious connection in nig mind between himself and these people, among whom Benjamin Corvet's summons had brought him, the one name "Miwaka." CHAPTER V I . The Deed In Trust Memory, if Alan could call it that had given him a feeling for ships and for the lake* But these recollections were only what those of a three-years' child might have been. Not only did they refuse to connect themselves with anything else, but by the very finality of their Isolation, they warned him that they—and perhaps a gjew more vague memories of similar sort—were all that recollection ever would give htm. Be caught himself together and turned his thoughts to the approaching visit to Sherrill—and his father's offices. He had accepted Constance SherriU's Invitation to drive him downtown to his destination. Observing the towering buildings to his right he was able to identify sotne of the more prominent structures, familiar from photographs of the city. Constance drove swiftly a few blocks 8herrlll Opened .a Drawer and Took Out a Large, Plain Envelope. down this boulevard; then, with a sudden, "Here we areT she shot the car to the curb and stopped. She led Alan into ope of the tallest aad bestlooking buildings. On several of the doors opening upon the wide marble hall where the elevator left them, Alan saw the names, "Corvet Sherrill and Spearman," Constance led the way on past to a door farther down the corridor, which bore merely the name, "Lawrence Sherrill"; evidently Sherrill, who had Interests aside from the shipping business, had offices connected with but not actually a part of the offices of Corvet Sherrill and Spearman. A girl on guard at the door, saying that Mr. Sherrill had been awaiting Mr. Conrad, opened aa inner door and led Alan into a large, many-wladewed room, where Sherrill was sitting alone before a table-desk. Ho pulled the "visitor*! chair" rather close te his desk and to his owa big leather chair before asking Alan to seat himself. "You wanted to tall aae, or ask me, something last sight my daughter has told me," Sherrill said cordially. "I'm sorry I wasn't homo whea you came back." "I wanted to ask yon, Mr. Sherrill," Alan said, "about those facta In regard to Mr. Corvet which you mentioned to me yesterday but did not explain. You said it would aot aid me to know them; but I found certain things in Mr. Corvet's bouse last night which made me want to know, if I could, everything you could tell me." Sherrill opened a drawer and took out a large, plain envelope. "On the day after your father disappeared," he said, "but before I knew ho was gone—or before any one except my daughter felt any alarm about him —I received a short note from him. The note was agitated, almost incoherent It told mo he had sent for you— Alan Conrad, of Blue Rapids, Kansas —but spoke of you ag though you were some one I ought to have known gbout. and commended yoa to my care. The remainder of it wag merely an agitated, almost Indecipherable farewell to me. When I opened the envelope, a key had fallen out The note made no reference to the key, but comparing it with one I had to my pocket, I saw that it appeared to bo a key to a safety deposit box in the vaults of a company where wo both bad boxes. "The note, taken in connection with my daughter's alarm about him, made tt so plain that something serious bad happened to Corvet that my first thought was merely for him. Corvet was not g man with whom one could readily connect the thought of suicide; but Alan, that was the idea I had. I hurried at once to his bouse, bat the boQ was not answered, aad I could aot gat la.

I went to the telephone In the house next door and called the hotel and found Wassaquam there. I told him over the telephone only that something was wrong, and hurried to my own home to get the key, which J had, to the Corvet house ; but when I came back and let myself Into the house, I found it empty and with no sign of anything having happened. "The next morning. Alan, I went to the safe deposit vaults ae> 4oon aa they were open. I presented the numbered key and was told that it belonged to a box rented by Corvet, and that Corvet had arranged about three days before for me to have access to the box If I presented the key. I had only to sign my nam* In their book and open the box. In It, Alan, I found the pictures of you which I showed you yesterday and the very strange communications that I am going to show you now." Sherrill opened the long envelope, from wUch several thin, folded papers fell. He picked up the largest yf thege, which consisted of several sheets fastened together with a clip, and handed It to Alan without comment. Alan, aa he Looked at It and turned the pages, saw that it contained two columns of typewriting carried from page to page after the manner of an account The column to the left was an Inventory of property and profits and Income by months and years, and the one to the right was a list of losses and expenditures. Beginning at an Indefinite day or month in the year 1896, there was set down in a lump sum what was indicated as the total of Benjamin Corvet's holdings at that time. To this, In Bometlmes undated items, the Increase had been added. In the opposite column beginning apparently from the same date in 1895, were the missing man's expenditures. Alan having ascertained that the papers contained only this account, looked up questloningly to Sherrill; but Sherrill, without speaking, merely handed him the second of the papers. Alan unfolded It und saw that it was a letter written in the same hand which had written the summons he had received In Blue Rapids and had made the entries in the little memorandum book of the remittances that had been sen£ to John Welton. It began simply: "Lawrence— • "This will come to you In the event that I am not able to carry out the plan upon which I am now, at last, determined. You will find with this a list of my possessions. Deeds for all real estate executed and complete except for recording of the transfer at the county office; bonds, certificates, and other documents representing my ownership of properties, together with signed forms for their legal transfer to you, are In this box. These properties, In their entirety, I give to you ID trust to hold Tor the young man now knowa as Alan Conrad of Blue Rap- Ids, Kan., to deliver any part or all over to him or to continue to hold It all In trust for him aa you shall consider to be to his greatest advantage. "This for the reasons which I shall have told to you or him—I cannot know which one of you now, nor do I know how I shall tell It. But when you learn, Lawrence, think as well of me as you can and help him to be charitable to me. "With the greatest affection, "BENJAMIN CORVET." Alan, as he finished reading, looked up to Sherrill. bewildered and dtuted. "What does it mean, Mr, Sherrill?— Does It mean that he has gone away and left everything he had—everything to me?" "If Mr. Corvet does not return, and I do not receive any other instructions, I shall take over his estate, as he has nstructed, for your advantage." "And, Mr. Sherrill, he didn't tell you "~hy? .This is all you know?" "Yes; you have everything now. All wo can do, Alan, Is to search for him In every way we can. There will be others searching for him too now; for information of his disappearance has got out. There have been reporters at the office this morning making inquiries, and his disappearance will be in tbe afternoon papers." Sherrill put the papers back in their envelope, and the envelope back Into the drawer, which ha rolockod. "I went over all this with Mr. Spearman this morning," bo said. "He is as much at a loss to explain it as I am." He was silent tor a few moments. "The transfer of Mr. Corvet's propertlee to me for you," he said suddenly, "Includes, us you have seen. Corrot's interest in the firm of 'Corvet,. Sherrill k Spearman.' I went very carefully through tbe deeds and transfers In tbe deposit box, and It was plain that while be had taken great care with tbe forms of transfer for all the properties, bo had taken particular paiag with whatever related to his holdings In thlg company and to his shipping interests. If I make over the properties to yoa, Alan, I shall begin wtta thooa; for it seems to mo taat your father was particularly anxious that you should take a personal aa well as a financial place among tba men who control the traffic of tba lakes. I have told Spearman that this la my Intention. He has aot beea. able to see it my way as yet; but he may change his views, I think, after meet* ing you." Sherrill got up. Alan arose a tittle unsteadily. Tbe list of properties he had read and tbe letter and SherriU's statement portended so much that its meaning could not all come to him at once. He followed Sherrill through a short private corridor, flanked with files lettered "Corvet Sherrill, and Spearman," into the large room he had seen when be came in with Constance. They crossed this, and Sherrill, without knocking, opened the door of the office marked, "Mr. Spearman." Alan, looking on past Sherrill AS the door opened, saw that there were some half dozen men in the room, smoking and talking. His gaze went swiftly on past these men to the one who, half seated on the top of the flat desk, had been talking to them ; and his pulse closed upon his heart with a shock ; he started, choked with astonishment, then swiftly forced himself under control. For this was the mtin whom hi had met and whom he had fought in Benjamin Corvet's house the night before —the big man surprised in bis blasphemy of Corvet and of souls "in h—1" who, at eight of an apparition with « bullet hole above its »ye, had cried out in his fright, "You got Ben ! But yon won't get me—d—n you t D—n you !" Alan's shoulders drew up slightly, jnd the muscles of his hands tightened, as Sherrill led him to this man. Sherrill put his hand on the man's shoulder; his other hand was still oo Alan's arm. "Henry," he said to the man, "Ibis Is Alan Conrad. Alan, I want you Ta know my partner, Mr. Spearman." Spearman nodded an acknowledge inent, but did not put oat his hand) hla eyes—steady, bold, wgggferai eyes —seemed measuring Alan attentively i and (n return Alan, with big fuse, was measuring him. , /dl That Stretch W i t h o u t A n y Rubl CHAPTER V«U Mr, o»*rvat's Partner.

But for Spearman. obviously, it was aot that. Following bis noncommittal nod of acknowledg« meot of SherriU's Introduction and higi first steady scrutiny of Alan, the big, handsome man swung Mm eel f off from the desk on whlc* bo sat and leaned agaln»t it, facing them mora directly.

REFUNDING CAN NOW GO ON Financial Exp«rt« Believe England's Stand Will Do Much to Restore Confidence and General Stability in the European Countries. By JAMES P. HORNADAY Washingtou.—The British empire will not repudiate any part of the debt It Incurred during the World war. Notice that this policy will be adhered to has been received by the World war foreign debt commission, created by the congress last February. The attitude of Great Britain as set forth in Its Informative communication to the flebt commission is that International credit Is one of the material foundations of preseut-duy civilization and that this credit could not be maintained in the future If any first class nation should repudiate its war debt. The decision of Great Britain—It should probably be referred to as a policy—was not a surprise to the foreign debt commission, but It has, of course, given the members of the commission genuine satisfaction. Great Britain has not up to this time, it is understood, made any definite promise to pay at a certain time. The debt commission has unofficial information to the effect that an Interest payment will be made during the present summer or fall and that It Is altogether likely that the interest on the British debt will be paid In full. Recently dispatches from London have indicated that the financiers In England are working out a plan under which the principal of the war debt would be paid some time during tfre present fiscal year, that Is to say, before June 30, 192.3. The authorities here who are dealing with the subject are not Inclined to credit this information. If they understand the British financial situation, the principal, which amounts to $4,166,318,358, cannot be paid now unless Great Britain can borrow the money with which to pay it, and they have no knowledge of sources from which Great Britain could borrow such an enormous sum. England's Decision Most Important. The authoritative announcement I that Great Britain Intends to pay will, It is believed by persons who are competent to discuss the subject, have a far-reaching influence on the financial and economic situation throughout the world. It is assumed here, In the absence of any authoritative information from England, that the British government, having decided to pay up In full as soon as possible, will expect the European nations that owe her also to pay. A considerable part of the money which the United States advanced to Great Britain during the war was lent to smaller European nations by Great Brltuln. These nations. it is assumed here, will be called on by Great Britain to settle up when they are able to do so. France, whose war debt tn the United States amounts to $3,350,702,983, not counting unpaid Interest, would hardly propose repudiation of any part of that debt after Great Britain had come out for n paid-in-full policy. It is believed here that the stand of Great Britain in favor of no repudiation of war debts will expedite the work of the foreign debt commission. There would seem to be no real obstacle now in the way of going ahead with the development of plans for refunding war debts. The director of finance of the French treasury, Jean V. rarmentler, who Is here for preliminary conferences, with the debt commission, has not voiced any desire on ihe part of France to have her debt to this government scaled down. A little later Great Britain will take up the refunding question with the debt commission, and the expectation now Is that a general refunding plan w i l l ^ e agreed on. Fixed Policy Will Help Europe. American bankers who have recently spent a good deal of time In Europe ire saying to members of the foreign jebt commission that the financial situation throughout Europe will undoubtedly be stimulated by tn"e adoption of a fixed policy for dealing with the war debts. According to these bankers, lack of confidence Is largely responsible for the unsatisfactory financial condition existing throughout Europe. Up to this time persons and concerns with large financial responsibilities have not known what to expect In the future. They have heard much talk durtng the last two years about the cancellation or repudiation of all war debts, and this sort of talk has not served to stabilize conditions. No one should set the impression lat, because Great Britain has let It knowwn that she Intends to pay United States every dollar she this government, the world's rat war debt is to b» paid with- I next few years. Jt Is barely that Great Britain might be »h$*V»%V*Eake a considerable payment Mt f i r f i t a d p a l during the present fiteat year, but the debt commission ' w o u l d be surprised If that should be done. A* for the other nations that owe t h e United States, there Is no expectation b t r e whatever of getting gnytfciag OB account In the near fut o r e What t h e new turn of affairs amounts to is that the way, apparently, is opened for refunding. Apathy on Ship Subsidy. The members of the bouse of representatives who were permitted to rvturn to their homes ostensibly for the purpose of assessing the attitude of their constituents toward ship subsidy legislation have not thus fur forwarded any information to the national capital that would tend to indicate that there is any great public demand for this legislation at this time. In fact, nothing on which judgment could properly be based has been received from the representatives, since they returned to their homes. In explanation of this, It may be said that the legislators have not had time to make the investigations which they wete requested to make and report ba*k, and that It may be reasonably assumed that later on they will be uble to submit reports that will be helpful to the "powers that be." When It was decided that the members- of the lower branch of the congress should have a vacation of six weeks an official statement was put out to the effect that since there seemed to be some question in the minds of some of the representatives as to whether ship subsidy legislation should be enacted during this session of the congress, it seemed advisable that the legislators should go home and canvass the situation first hand. In this connection the view was put forth that^the house of representatives and Indeed the congress as a whole was overwhelmingly in favor of the administration's' subsidy program, but that some members of the house were Inclined to be timid about voting for the legislation until they could talk with the folks back home. T h e administration in agreeing to the vacation arrangement appeared to be very certain that a little mixing with the folks at home would convince the timid members that the country U ready for ship subsidy legislation. * Were to Do Missionary Work. There was much talk about the time the arrangements for the recess were made that most of the Republican members of the house of representatives were to go home for a brief spell as missionaries, so to speak, for t h e cause of ship subsidy. They were to take along with them all the printed arguments prepared by the shipping board during the last few months In favor of the subsidy program. They were to submit these arguments to their constituents and were to undertake a sort of- nationwide campaign In the Interest of subsidy legislation and then return to Washlgton and rush through the administration bill. If any of the representatives are engaged in carrying out this program the fact has not been reported back to the national capital. Information received here from various sections of the country indicates, to the contrary, that the representatives are at work on their polltlcnl fences with scarcely a mention of ship subsidy legislation. Obviously, the administration is disappointed because the nationwide campaign was not put under way. If the Republican representatives had carried out the program that was arranged i for them, the administration would have supplemented that program by sending forth several of its ablest speakers to tell the country how vital it Is at this time that the pending subsidy legislation be enacted. Albert D. i I.asker, chairman of the shipping board, had planned an extensive speaking tour, but It was since said at ! the shipping board that pressing business here may prevent him from taking a long trip In the Interest of subsidy legislation. Don't Want the issue This Year. The fact is that the members of the house of representatives, nearly all of whom are candidates for re-eiectlou, do not want the ship subsidy Issue raised in this year's congressional campaign. The same Uilng is true of practically all of the senators who are up for re-election. This statement applies to Republican congressmen. rather than to the Democrats who are seeking re-election, though some of the Democrats are not at all anxious to deal with the subsidy Issue in the campaign. The failure of the Republican representatives to get In behind a natgSnn-wide propaganda in support of | tlie administration's subsidy bill during their leave of ahsenre from Washington is generally regarded here as an indication that the house of representatives will shy away from a vote on subsidy legislation before the election. If there Is any one thing President Harding desires above another at this time in the way of legislation. It Is the passage of the administration's subsidy bllL He has said publicly that If the congress should not give the subject reasonable consideration at ; this session, he would call an extra session, provided, of course, there was time for an extra session to convene between the time of the adjournment of the present session and the opening of the regular session December 4. | True I Detective Stories Throwing Clothes Out Divorces Man.

They adhere to their old laws, iMtie of which a r e peculiar—particularly some of the laws affecting marriage.

There la no court of appeal* BY PERSONS UNKNOWN Copyright by Tbe V l t n l i r 8ynd.lca.te, l a c f ^ T T IS absolutely essential," said ^ the secretary of treasury, glancing across his desk at the short, ruddy-complexioned, rather stout man who sat opposite him, "that the persons responsible for these lynchlngs at Versailles be arrested, tried and convicted. I don't think It is overstating the matter to say that this case is more important than any counterfeiting plot or smuggling scheme which the department has ever worked on, for the governor of Indiana has applied to the federal government for troops to handle the uprising which threatens to sweep over that part of the country, and the entire state Is taking sides in the matter. "Naturally we do not wish to send troops to Versailles unless It is absolutely necessary. It would only lead to additional bloodshed and disorder. What we need Is someone who has the nerve to go out there, Investigate the case from every possible angle and make a report as to the persons responsible for the lynchlngs. That's why I sent for you." The man on the other side of the desk smiled and tapped thoughtfully with the forefinger of a hand which indicated strength and determination of character. "Of course," continued the secretary, "I must warn you that the case Is one that Is apt to prove dangerous. More so, In fnct, than any tiling you have ever attempted. Compared to It. the roundup of a gang of moonshiners Is child's plfry—for here you will have to work entirely In the dark, one man against practically an entire state. A single slip would mean your death, and would force the government to take steps which might lead to protracted bloodshed." "In which case," replied the other. "It would be well for rak to get out to Versailles as soon as I can. The longer we wait the less chance there Is of success. Don't make any attempt to hear from me or to locate me for at least a month. If, at the end of that time, you haven't received some kind of a report, you will know that they've got me. But, somehow, I've got a hunch that they won't." It was two days later that the train which stopped at Versailles, Ind., halted Just long enough to permit a single passenger to alight—a man who was short and rather plump and with a ruddy complexion, a man who registered at the local hotel as "James M. P.eck" and who allowed It to hecome known that he, was an Insurance agent, representing one of the best-known companies in the country. But Versailles, as Beck soon discovered, was a poor field for life insurance at that time. There was only one topic of conversation In which the natives were Interested: the lynching of the five prisoners who had been taken from Jail and murdered by an Infuriated mob. This, coupled with open threats of defiance against the governor's edict that the guilty men must be punished, kept the town in a continual state of simmering, seething unrest—punctuated by frequent statements that any state or government official who tried to find out the names of the men Implicated In the lynching would be shot on sight. Beck, apparently, wasn't In the least Interested In the local turmoil. He had been sent to Versailles to sell insurance, and he was determined to <*ell It. no matter how many people he had to interview. The fact that he was a stranger led. of course, to Immediate suspicion of his motives. and some two weeks passed before he was able to allay this. About the end of the third week matters were brought to a head by reason of a wire which Beck sent to New York, a dispatch which was In code and which caused the operator to spread the report that the "Hie Insurance acrent" was a detective In disguise. Getting wind of this and realizing that he must take some radical step to offset suspicion. Beck ap prbached the man who appeared to he the leader of the trouble-faction. The agent explained to him that he was sretting tired of the quarters at the hotel, and wondered If It would be possible to secure lodgings in> some private house where he would be s little more comfortable. "Certainly," said the native. l1 reckon we can put you up all right." And he smiled at the thought of this man whom he suspected placing him self entirely In hts power. That, how ever, was precisely what Beck wished, and It only took a couple of days of clever acting to convince th* local leader that he was only what he appeared to be—a slow, plodding and conscientious Insurance agent. It was in the house of the most dangerous citizen of Versailles, under the very eyes of his associates, that the. stranger secured the Information he wanted and put It together, piece by piece, until he had the entire story. It was precisely a month to the day after the conversation in the office of the secretary of the treasury, when that official received a wire from Chicago stating that "all facts about Versailles lynching now In hand. Complete list of men Implicated follows by mall." The name signed to the wire was "William J. Boms, chief of the Urdted Stages secret sertlce." I Qtoriesof ° GREAT INDIANS By ELMO SCOTT WATSON \ Copyrajnt, 1922. Weitara N«wap«.p«r Unioc LITTLE WOLF, C H I E F OF T H E NORTHERN CHEYENNSS MUCH has been written about Chief Joseph's retreat which won for him the name of the Indian Xenophon. Little Wolf (Oh kum hkakit), chief of the northern Cheyeanes, might well lay claim to that title, for in many respects his dash for freedom was even more remarkable than that of the Nez Perce, More than 13,000 soldiers at one time or another tried to atop the flight of Little Wolf and his little band of 70 men across the flat plains of Kansas, Nebraska and the Dakotas. "There never was such another journey since the Greeks marched to the sea," says George Bird Grinn'ell, the ablest chronicler of this splendid migration. When Little Wolf and his companion- in-arms, Dull Knife, resolved, In defiance of the government, to lead their people back to Montana, their ayent in Indian Territory tried to persuade them to stay one year more. However, the Cheyennes started and soldiers were sent after the fugitives. Within a week they had fought them five times, but failed to stop them. Then the whole available force of the United States army in the West was called Into action and six lines of military barrier were thrown out to stop the tieelng Cheyennes. The last line was far up In Montana, showing what the army thought of these hardriding, hard-fighting warriors. Stopping to fight when they were attacked, then gotng on after they had beaten off the soldiers,-Little Wolfs people kept on until they had cut through three of the military lines. Here Dull Knife and Little Wolf separated. Dull Knife was captured and imprisoned at Fort Robinson, but Little Wolf kept oneuntil he reached the sand hills of Nebraska. The soldiers were unable to find him. Early in the spring he took up his journey again and his band finally camped on the Little Missouri river In Montana. He had reached his homeland at last. Here he was discovered by Lieut. W. P. Clark, loved and respected by all the Cheyennes as "White Hat," their friend. Persuaded by Clark, Little Wolf went with him to Fort Keogh where he surrendered to General Miles. The general invited him to enlist as a scout and In spite of the hardships which he had just passed through, Little Wolf accepted the Invitation and proved a valuable ally against the hostile Sioux. Little Wolf was finally settled on the Lame Deer reservation and died November 14, 1904. CHIEF OURAY, T H E DICTATOR OF THE UTES "To the Chiefs, Headmen and Utea of tha White River Agency: You are hereby requested and commanded to cease hostilities against the whites, Injuring no Innocent person or any other further than to protect your own lives and properties from unlawful and unauthorized combinations and desperadoes, as anything further will ultimately end In dls-( aster to all parties. (Signed) "OURAY." SUCH is a document unique in Indian history. No other Indian chief had a secretary to whom he dictated orders and there Is no other case on record of a chief calling upon his warriors in this manner to lay down their arms after they had shed white blood. It is evidence of Ouray's greatness that his command was obeyed immediately. In 1879 Agent N. C. Meeker had trouble with the White River Utes and called for troops to protect him. Maj. T. T. Thornburgh with a force of 150 men marched to his relief. The Utes took this as a declaration of war and attacked them on the Milk river In northwestern Colorado. Part of them besieged the soldiers, killing 13, Including the commander, and wounding 48. Others attacked the agency, murdered Meeker and nine other white men, taking five women and children captives. Then came Ouray's message and the "Ute war" was over. Ouray, "The Arrow" was born In Taos, N. M., in 1834. He was baptized by a Jesuit priest and educated In a little Mexican school a t Taos where he learned the Spanish tongue. In 1850 he returned to the Utes who were then engaged In a bitter struggle with the Navajoes, Cheyennes and Arapahoes. One day a war party of 30 Utes led by Ouray was attacked by 800 Arapahoes. The chief rallied his warriors, formed them in a hollow square and then l i f e fight lasting 14 hours they finally beat off their assailants. Soon after this Ouray's only son was captured by the Arapahoes. From that day the Ute chief never allowed his tribe to rest from hostility toward them. In later years he appealed to the government to restore hts son to him, but the boy had become so much an Arapahoe that he refused to come. Because of Ouray's knowledge of Spanish he was made the government Interpreter to the Utes In-1856 and became bend chief soon afterwards. His friendship toward the whites was unwavering and he adopted some of their ways. He had a well-cultivated funn on which he built a comfortable house and there he died Au guat 24 1830. ~ 3 THE , KITCHEN CABINET Copyright, 1911.

MORE ABOUT RAW FOODS The raw-food people never have colds, fevers, torpid livers, stomach troubles, nervousness or any number of common ailments that the out-of-date o r d i - nary cooked food eater has, they tell us. The raw - food movement deserves at least a fair trial, for it seems to be the remedy for many ills. Fat people grow thin, thin people grow fat, and the muddy skin of the meat-eater becomes clear and bright. Who wouldn't eat raw beets, carrots and peas If she finds herself growing gracefully slender, or who wouldn't like the feeling of youth and freshness flowing through the* blood and limbering up the muscles. These foods when carefully prepared and balanced will convince the most predjudiced that they are ail that they have been called. The amount that a raw-fooder eats Is small; he is quickly satisfied. The reason Is that the stomach seems to know that it has enough and telegraphs the fact to the taste" and be finds himself satisfied. With a good meal of raw foods yon have a sensation of taste never before experienced and yon feel you are eating one of the most delicious of meals. You assimilate every bit. find yourself feeling good after the meal, brain clear, wits nimble, and when retiring time comes, sleep like the proverbial log. There really Is something worth while In t h i s ; try IL As a child, didn't you like to go Into the garden and pull the sweet turnips and carrots and eat your fill? With the sharp grinders of childhood those vegetables were quickly reduced by mastication and well digested.

(Prepared by the United State* Department of Agriculture.) A net increase of 14.5 per cent In the Dumber of young pigs produced this spring In the Corn Belt states Is shown In a special pig survey just completed by the United States Department of Agriculture. This Increase may overcome the present shortage of meat stocks, the department states. The survey shows a gross increase of 22.8 per cent ID the number of spring litters this year as compared with the number of litters born last spring, but the average number of pigs saved per litter Is 7 per cent less than last spring. The April 1 brood sow report of the department Indicated a net Increase of 15.6 per cent In pig production this spring over last year. The department points out that stocks of pork products other than lard in storage May 1 are 33 per cent less than the five-year average and 26 per cent less than a year ago. Lard stocks May 1 were 16 per cent less than the five-year average and 37 per cent less than on May 1, 1921. Stocks of other meats are correspondingly low. It Is also pointed out that the survey covers numbers of hogs and not weight. The records show that the average weight of hogs marketed has varied as much as 34 per cent, or from 193 to 262 pounds, during the past five years, Many producers have found it profitable to market their hogs early at light weight before the usual run of heuvy hogs later, the department says. If farmers carry out their expressed Intentions with respect to breeding for fall farrowings the total number of sows expected to farrow for the year, including spring and fall farrowings, will be 28 per cent larger than last y*ar. The survey Indicates a prospective Increase of 49 per rent in the fall farrowings In these states over last year. Last year fall farrowings represented 28 per cent of the total farrowings for « ' -i the year, while this year they will probably represent 35 per cent. If the number of pigs saved per litter is aa low as this spring, however, the prospective Increase in number of pigs next fall will be materially reduced. The average number of pigs saved per Utter, as reported for this spring, is 5.66 pigs, compared with 6.1 pigs last spring and 5.9 pigs last fall. Smaller Increases in East and South. The survey In Pennsylvania, New York and Maryland shows an increase of only 5 per cent in the number of litters for the first half of the year, while the total number of pigs saved shows a decrease of 3 per cent from a year ago. The number of sows bred for fall farrowing shows an increase of 23 per cent over the number of sows which farrowed last fall. A total increase of 14 per cent in the number of • letters for the year is indicated provided the intentions of farmers to produce fall pigs are carried out. In the Southern states, including Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, an increase of 5 per cent in the number of spring litters is reported, but the total number of pigs saved' is the same as last year on account of the smaller number of pigs saved per lit ter. These Southern states show an Increase of 27 per cent in the number of sows Intended to be bred for fall farrowing over last year, with a total prospective increase of 11 per cent in the number of litters for the year. < The survey Is based upon about 200,000 schedules received from farmers in the Corn Belt states, which produce about 70 per cent of the pigs in the United States, and from farmers In the eastern and southern states. The schedules were distributed by rural mall carriers to 15 farmers on each rural mail delivery route. It Is planned to make a similar survey in about six months which will be used as a check on the department's estimate, and a-iso Indicate the number of pigs to be produced In the spring of 1923. The figures in the present survey are given below. CORN B E L T S T A T E S S 8-£ s a l 0 ' w ** ^ O u Z e. S Corn Belt States.

Heavy Pieces Should Be Stretched Over Beam or Large Horizontal Pole—Will Last Much Longer If Waterproofed. (Pre»are4 by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Canvas and duck wagon and crop covers and canvas bags are liable to damage through moisture, causing subsequent mildew or rotting unless tbey are dried before being stored, •ays the bureau of chemistry of the United States Department of Agriculture. Canvas which has becime wet or even damp should be^ dried as soon aa possible by being spread over a wagon or hung over a fence or large pole until It la thoroughly dry. If the weather Is wet, It may be hung under a shed or in the barn. No can* ,vaa bags, e t c should be folded or stored while damp. Folding of a heavy canvas, especially If It has been stiffened by a waterproofing treatment or by being wet or froaen, may weaken or crack the fabric, earning it to leak. Per this ssjaty canvas whoa not la use should hang over a beam or large horizontal pole, or -should be suspended against the inside of a barn or shed rather than folded. Canvas and duck will give better service and last longer if waterproofed. The United States Department of Agriculture, in Farmers' Bulletin 1157, gives tail directions for waterproofing and mildewproofing cotton duck. The bulletin may be had free on application. PRODUCING CERTIFIED SEED Many Potato Growers W i l l Be Disappointed Because of Raise In Requirements. Probably as a result of the better price received last year for certified seed stock, Maine potato growers this year have listed more than 3.300 acres for inspection of representatives of the State Department of Agriculture. Many of these growers will be disappointed, however, because they have started with stock of no particular merit. Over a aerie* of years an average of 47 per cent of the entries passed the seed-certiflcatlon requirements, but this year the percentage will probably be lower. The mosaic standard has been railed. This year a field having as much as 5 per cenl of mosaic disease Is disqualified foi products* certified aeed.

A short sharp cry, a prolonged irritated cry. Restlessness, a constant turning of the head or of the whole boay. fretftiL In these and other ways a baby tells you there is something wrong. Most mothers know that a disordered stomach, or bowels that do not act naturally are the cause of most of baby's sufferings. A call for the doctor is the first thought, but in the event of any delay there should be ready at hand a safe remedy such as Fletcher's Castoria- Castona has been used for baby's ailments for over 30 years and has merited the good will of the fearily physician in a measure not equaled by any other baby's medicine because of its harmlessness and the good results achieved. And remember this: Oastoria is essentially a baby's remedy and not a cureall for every member of the feinily. What mignt help you is too often dangerous when given to a babe.

Then is such a thing as saying too much on tny subject, and the "grand-stand" talker sooner or later becomes a bore. The truth is always welcomed, and the truth reiterated and confirmed is more than welcome—it reaches your innermost soul. Fletcher's Castoria is all its advertising has claimed for i t Scrutiniied . y the microscope of public opinion and used for over thirty years it stands without a peer in the hearts of thoughtful, cautious, discerning Mothers.

Today, Barney Oldfield is known as the "Master Tire Builder." Starting with the crude tires which carried the "999" one mile in sixty .seconds, Oldfield gradually developed his famous Cords—a set of which covered 090 miles at eightyeight miles ah hour without a change. In three years Oldfield tires have won every important tiace on American speedways. They are the only American tires that have ever taken, first place in the French Grand Prix. They have won for three consecutive years in the 500-mile Indianapolis Sweepstakes. So far in 1922, Oldfields have lowered four World's Records and seven track records. The Wichita Test Run gave evidence of Oldfield superiority in touring— when a set of four Cords covered 34,525 rhiles over rutted, frozen, winter roads—a performance attested by the Mayor of Wichita. See your dealer arid get a set of these rugged tires that Barney Oldfield has developed and perfected through a lifetime of practical tire experience. Their performance will convince you that they are "The Most Trustworthy Tires Built" AH OOT SotAt WHUT H Y CAU #MA*YtBM' STY4.*" FRg6-U<6$ IN A BtALS $mcr *tsrfcwT YISTIWY *UT pEY5 Mojfc* STYLE! 70D8BS': J "i :Vt> R.
