Line Turns In Fire Alarm. Albert Brewer, eighteen, of Reilly avenue, went fishing a few days ago at Ivory slough. The fish did not bite, BO Brewer shouldered his pole and started for home, At Marceau and Reilly avenues he passed a fire alarm box. The door was open. The line caught the hook. It was the first bite Brewer had all day. The line jerked the hook down with such force that an alarm was sounded. Brewer heard the Jingle of the alarm and ran home. The police arrested him ten minutes later and charged him wrth turning in a false alarm.—St, Louis Times. His Mind Elsewhere. "Does it require mental concentration to write a 'best seller'?"

PLANTS AROUND THE HOUSE By LIMA R. R03E. A great deal of discriminating care should be exercised about the plants located close to the house. Those set in such a manner as to hide the foundation of the house and relieve the bareness should be plants that do not grow much higher than the wall. Some of the best plants for this sort of adornment are the herbaceous spireas, dicentra and perennial phlox. Such annuals as ten weeks stock, aster, nicotians, nasturtium and coreopsis can also be used effectively. Gladioli furnish a brilliant display in midsummer and the tuberose is a fragrant plant that also should have place near the house. Scatter bulbs for early blooming all through the lawn and close to the path. Old-fashioned plants are always a happy selection because they possess genuine merit and have been proved. Make homes instead of houses by the good taBte exercised in your planting around the home grounds and display your originality along conservative lines and make your planting arrangements artistic. THE ETERNAL BATTLE WITH BUGS IN THE GARDEN By 8. M. TAYLOR. 8pray, spray and forever spray, if you would save the fruit of your orchard, field and garden. Countless days of labor of men and women are lost, hope turns to disappointment, and ambition blighted because of the unchecked ravages of insects and disease. The vital importance of spraying is beginning to be realized by fruit and vegetable and flower growers, but all too slowly. The formulas of the most Important compounds for spraying will be of value to the Intelligent and dead-in-earnest grower. Any of the sprays mentioned can be applied with comparative safety to any plant or foliage if moderation and Judgment are used. Paris Green Formula. Paris green 1 Lb. Fresh (unslaked) lime 1 Lb. Water 200 Gals. Paris green is heavier than water and the mixture must be kept in constant motion during spraying operations to prevent settling. It Is often adulterated. Gypsum and slaked lime are two adulterants commonly used- Pure parts green dissolves without sediment in ammonia, the adulterant will not This affords a simple test for purity. Paris green if used on growing plants greatly In excess of the above formula may Injure the foliage. The addition of the lime overcomes the caustic properties and renders It safe under all conditions. Dry parts green may be used purs If applied in small quantities. Different dry powder "guns" have been invented for this purpose. Poison for Biting Insects, Arsenate of lead 2 Lbs. Water BO Gals. Arsenate of lead Is a combination of whits arsenic, sugar of lead and sal soda. It may be prepared by combining these materials In proportion, but the process Involves considerable labor and danger, aa the ingredients must be combined by hotting. Arsenate of lead U lees liable to Injure foliage than parts green. It remains longer in suspension. It adheres better to foliage. It may be need for any purpose for which parte green ta employed in liquid sprays. White Hellebore. Powdered white hellebore is •Msuy employed to destroy evraat f cabbage worms and on fruits and vegetables where more poisonous BUDstancea cannot be used with safety. White hellebore 1 Oz. Water 2 or S Gals. It may also be used dry, either alone or mixed with flour, land plaster, soot, etc. White hellebore is scarcely poisonous to the higher animals and may be used freely on fruits and vegetables at any stage of maturity. Used only to destroy sucking insects. It may be applied to the insects and cannot be used as a preventive. This is the standard remedy for Bucking insects. Dissolve one pound hard soap in two gallons of boiling water. While hot add two quarts of kerosene. Churn or shake the mixture while hot for five to ten minutes or until it assumes a creamy consistency. Add six gallons of water before using. Another plan consists in using sour milk Instead of the soap water, the object in either case being to hold the kerosene In suspension while it is applied to the insects. The most approved method of apply lng kerosene is by means of a special pump designed to mix kerosene and water. This is the most agreeable and by all means the best method of apply lng kerosene. Sprays for Fungicides. The control of fungous diseases is accomplished by the use of some form of copper salts, usually coppei sulphate or copper carbonate. The former known as bluestone, blue vitriol, etc., is generally recog nlzed as more efficient than the latter, When purchased in large quantities it is also cheaper. Copper sulphate may be used on dormant plants when dissolved in water at the rate of two pounds to 50 gallons of water, but this solution must not be used on growing plants. Copper sulphate in combination with fresh lime forms the standard and well-known fungicide. Bordeaux Mixture. Various formulas are quoted, but the following is accepted as safe and re» liable: Copper sulphate 5 Lbs. Fresh lime 5 Lbs. Water 50 Gals. In general terms, th* copper sulphate should be dissolved in one-half of the water, the lime slaked in the remainder, and the two solutions poured together. This results in a chemical action giving rise to a new substance preserving the fungicidal properties of the copper sulphate, and if properly made will not Injure foliage. Making Bordeaux Mixture. Have on hand three barrels and two pails (wood or fiber). Twenty-five gallons of water in each of two of the barrels. Dissolve five pounds of copper sulphate in one barrel by suspending in a coarse burlap as near the surface of the water as possible; in this way It will dissolve In a few minutes, while if allowed to settle to the bottom It would require several hours or even days to dissolve. Place the lime in a pail and slake by adding water slowly until a paste is formed. (The lime for bordeaux mixture should be slaked exactly as for building purposes.) Pour this Urns paste Into the second barrel and stir thoroughly. Now pour into the third (empty) barrel first a pailful of the copper sulphate solution, thee a pailful of lima water, or better, let two persons work at the job, pouring together. The resultant mixture should be of aa Intense blue color.

H. R. LATHROP & CO, Inc. no.ita.ii4.iis New York City, N. Y. 194 W«Ur S t m t ISejBBgBJJBBJJBJtM StTMt ft Painless Dentistry. A tourist while "doing" California noticed a long shanty which displayed the following sign: "Teeth yanked out without a twinge." As he happened to be suffering from toothache, he entered the shanty and asked the dentist: "Do you extract teeth without giving pain?" "Waal, I reckon so, stranger." "All right; pull this one out," indicating the offending molar. The dentist whistled, and in walked his assistant with a club. "Now, pard," quoth the "dentist," "Stun him!" True Religious Spirit. The church recently erected at Orleans, in the Sacramento diocese of California, is the only sacred edifice in a radius of 40 miles, and stands on a half-acre given by an aged squaw, Indian Fannie, who, though destitute, made the present in the best possible spirit, saying: "Go on and build the church; I don't want any money." The congregation is about 700 Indians and halfbreeds. A Reason for Being Neutral. "Why should we remain neutral?" "So's we can cheer for the winner, and say tha* we were for him all the time." Snake bites few deaths. cause comparatively Thon the Star Twinkled. Long had he worshiped her at a distance, but his shyness prevented him from proposing. Then, one night, for the sweet sake of charity, a theatrical performance took place, in which the charmer was the leading woman and more adorable than ever. Afterward the shy admirer drew near his sweetheart, made valiant by the sight of her beauty. "You are the star of the evening," he said, as they stood alone in a corner. "You are the first to tell me so," said the damsel, with a happy blush. "Then," he retorted promptly, ''may I claim my reward as an astronomer?" The woman looked puzzled. "What reward?" she asked. "Why, the right U» give my nama to the star I have Just discovered!" the young man said, speaking boldly at last—Answers, London. ^ e r y Attractive. "This novel has an attractive description of the hero's country home." "You bet," assented the old farmer. "I'd like mighty well to use that in the booklet I get out every year for summer boarders."

These New Toasties do not "chaff** or crumble in the package and they don't mush down in cream—both common defects of old-fashioned "corn flakes.** Then, too, notice the tiny bubbles on the flakes, produced by the quick, intense heat of a new patented process of making which imparts delightful crispness and a substantial body to the flakes* New Post Toasties are a vast improvement over any old-style "corn flakes.** For tomorrow's breakfast -— New Post Toasties Sold by Grocers everywhere. s w^m .,:•/••• r w •••• - H 'yWJik •i.*.'

PINCKNEY DISPATCH IN PURPLE TAFFETA AFTERNOON C08TUME THAT WILL MEET WITH APPROVAL.

The pretty afternoon drees here shown la made of purple taffeta, and front and back widths are draped with nary georgette crepe. Bands of navy satin trim the skirt,-the same material being employed for the narrow T Pretty Afternoon Dreaa. modtah revert. Silver and turquoise embroidery adds a color touch and decorative feature to the overdrapery of georgette. The drese may be made at home, njlug materials of good quality, for $16, estimating four yards of taffeta at 91.60 per yard, the same amount of georgette, of which a very fair quality may be obtained for 91.50 a yard, and allowing |1 for- three-quarters of a yard of aatin, 91 tor the sllfc and metal thread with which the embroidering Is done, and 92 for sewing silk, lining, hooks and eyes, and general fittings. Net is the lining usually selected for a dress of this type, because it gives the support necessary and yet avoids any suggestion of stiffness, which feature Is definitely opposed to the season's preferred styles, even the tight little basque bodices frequently seen having an invariable softening touch. Sleeves of the dress Illustrated are of georgette, matching the drapery while the dainty chemisette vest is of sheer white organdie. This touch of white against the neck is uniformly becoming. As will be noted, the gown Is cut on very simple lines. The bodice is barely waist length in the back, the short-waist effect accentuated by the pointed girdle. The simulated front girdle is in one with the front sections of the bodice, and is finished with a touch of Bilver-thread embroidery and an appliqued block of the navy satin. The fancy for metal embroideries came into being more than a year ago, and It has strengthened as the months have passed. The decoration is now a favorite one on many of the high-grade tailored suits of silk. Costumers account for the fancy for embroideries as trimmings by the fact that the war has discouraged the development of novelty fabrics and trimmings, so that to offset the condition and do away with the possibility of a dearth of decoration hand embroidery was given a place at the head of the procession. If a woman is handy with her needle the fancy for hand-embroidered frocks need not appall her, but if she must depend upon someone else to apply the stitches she must expect to pay well for them. Manufacturers say that because of the demand for hand embroidery as a trimming ready-to-wear garments have gone up in price, as this class of work must necessarily be slow and skilled needlewomen command high wages. Hand embroidery and fabric combinations play a very Important part In making this season's costume a smart one. The dress illustrated has the sideflare effect with flat front and back that are commended as wholly correct by Dame Fashion.—-Washington Star. TAKING PUCE OF THE MUFF #~ Many Uses for the Empty Hands May Be Found if Women WIN Look for Them. What shall a woman do with her hands, now that she has no further use for a muff? Shall she carry a handbag, or shall she run the risk of feeling awkward and nervous through not knowing just what to do with them? Many women who are not ordinarily affected by trifles are sometimes irritated by this little problem. One young woman solves it by becoming a student She is seen for the first few weeks of mild weather carrying a book, magazine or newspaper, which is not.heavy, but finds a use for the empty hands. At first a book is used. Then she changes to a lighter book, then to a magazine, and lastly to the newspaper. In the meantime she has been learning to carry a handbag In the hand, and not slipped over the arm, as is generally done by those who have carried a muft Another woman carries a bag containing embroidery, while a third is never seen without an embroidery bag or basket. These articles are not heavy, nor cumbersome, but are useful for the purpose to whieh they are put It is always at this time that women feel shabby, eves though they may have on practically sew clothes, and an long for the season's change of dress. The bright new bags, or books, serve to modify this dissatisfaction, and women who carry such things go along In a buoyant manner, apparently tree from care. There are many new artistic handbags which can be made inexpensively and changed to correspond with the costume and whieh could be need in this way. the lid pierce a number of small holes. Cover the surfaoe of the lid with flannel and turn the material over at the edges, and, by means of the holes pierced in the edge of the tin, securely sew it in place. Then sew a flounce of flannel of sufficient length to reach to the bottom of the tumbler, and bind the flannel at the lowest edge with narrow ribbon. The edge of the lid is finished off with a silk cord, and in the center three little loops of aatin ribbon are sewed on, which form a kind of handle x USEFUL IN THE SICK ROOM Cosy That May Be Rofled Upon to Keep Liquid Warm for Any Required Time.

Women's complaints often prove to be nothing el&e but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease. If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased. You may suffer & great deal with pain in the back, headache, loss of ambition, : nervousness and may be despondent and irritable. Don't delay starting treatment. Dr. : Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a physician's pre- , scription, obtained at any drug store, restores health to the kidneys and is just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions. Get a fifty cent or one dollar bottle immediately from any drug store. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.—Adv.

Prourettlve Ticket: THEODORE R 0 0 8 E V E L T , for president. JOHN M. PARKER, for vloe president Chicago.—Charles Evans Hughes of New York was nominated for president by the Republican national con Tention on the third ballot His vote was practically unanimous. He redelved 949½. Col. Theodore Roosevelt received 18 V^ DuPont 5, Weeks 3 E d Lodge 7. One was absent. Bere the roll call had covered half the ites Hughes had the necessary 494. New Jersey's vote touches the mark. Fairbanks of Indiana was placed in nomination for vice president by John Wanamaker of Philadelphia. The nomination of Justice Hughes •wept through the crowded Coliseum like a tornado. It began with Alabama and rolled over the country from coast to coast and from Gulf to Canadian border. It leaped the seas to the Philippines and Hawaii and Porto Rico. At almost the same moment Theodore Roosevelt was unanimously noml Bated for president by the Progressive national convention. Make Nomination Unanimous. Chairman Harding announced the nomination of Hughes, and Alex. P. Moore of Pittsburgh and Senator Lodge, who voted for Theodore Roosevelt, moved to make it unanimous. The nomination was made unanimous with a roaring chorus of "Ayes" and not a single "No." Senator Lodge made an eloquent appeal for Hughes in seconding the motion for unanimity. New Mexico nominated Fairbanks lor vie© president Governor Willis of Ohio seconded Fairbanks. Nebraska was the next state to re- Bpond and H. H. Baldrldge nominated termer Senator Burkett Charles Warren Fairbanks of Indiana was nominated on the first ballot at the vice presidential candidate of the Republican party. Hughe* It Notified. The following message of notification and congratulation from Warren O. Harding, permanent chairman of the Republican national convention, tent to Justice Hughes at Wash- >n: "With deliberation and enthusiasm, circumstances which could not been more complimentary, and Tftta unanimity never excelled in past ojnventlons, yon have been nomlnat* fjt by the Republicans of the nation m e v candidate for president of the «krited States. "Your eminent fitness for this high osfice, your sterling integrity and un- MdDled private character are under^ ojtood and appreciated by your connsjtsueu. t Voicing the sentiments of the convention over which I have presided lay the courtesy of my fellow delefate*, I congratulate yon and the country upon the outcome of this convention. WARR&rf 0. HARDING." The fact that Roosevelt had been aominsted by the rival convention. In s o wise dampened the ardor or the ejBthoalaam of the Republican delegates, the alternates and the great u t s d i that packed the floor and the jeUerfes of the Cottscum to the very fas* tact CHARLES WARREN FAIRBANK8. At soon as the presidential nomination was out of the way, conferences were begun to fix upon the running mate of the Supreme court Justice. Roosevelt Offers Lodge. The Roosevelt proposal to select his friend, Henry Cabot Lodge, as a compromise candidate was never taken seriously by the Republicans. Lodge's name was not even formally placed in nomination before the Republican convention. The Roosevelt message, however, caused consternation for a time, coming as it did like a bombshell wholly unexpected. The report of the "peace" conference committees showing that the Progressive "peace committee" had agreed to put the name of Hughes before that convention hardly caused a stir, nor did the news that came a few minutes later that the report had been tabled by the Progressives. Meanwhile Hughes was in the air, on every tongue. Delegates were Impatient to get to balloting. The feeling was everywhere that the third ballot of the convention for president would be the last—and it was. Harding Is Chairman. The Republican convention opened at the Coliseum at 11 a. m., June 7. Senator Warren G. Harding of Ohio was elected temporary chairman, and he delivered a speech setting forth conservative Republican principle*. Following this the regular committees Washington. June 10.—Justice Charles Bvana Hughes accepted the Republican nomination tor the presidency, and resigned from the Supreme ccurt of the United states. He issued the following statement.' "To the President: "I hereby resign the office of associate Justice of the Supreme court of the United States. "I am. sir, respectfully yours, "CHARLES E. HUGHES." Hughes' statement of the acceptance of the Republican nomination follows: "Hon. Warren G. Harding. Chairman Republican National Committee. Chicago. I1L "Mr. Chairman and Delegates: I have not desired the nomination. I have wished to remain on t£e bench, but In this critical period of our national history I recognize that It Is your right to summon and my paramount duty to respond. Tou speak' at a time of national exigency, transcending merely partisan consideration. "You voice the demand of the dominant, thoroughgoing Americanism, with firm, protective, upbuilding policies essential to our peace and security; and to that call in this crisis I cannot fail to answer with the pledge of all that Is In me to the service of our country. Therefore I accept the nomination. "I stand for the firm and unflinching maintenance of sJl^the rights of American citizens on land and sea. I neither Impugn motives nor underestimate difficulties. "But It Is more regrettably true that In our foreign relations we have suffered Incalculably from the weak and vacillating course which has been taken as regards Mexico—a course lamentably wrong with regard to both our rights and our duties. "We Interfered without consistency and while seeking to dictate when we were not concerned, we utterly failed to appreciate and discharge our plain duty to our citizens. "At the outset of the administration the high responsibilities of our diplomatic intercourse with foreign nations were subordinated to a conception of partisan requirements, and we presented to the world a humiliating spectacle of Ineptitude. "The latest efforts have not availed to recover the influence and prestige so unfortunately sacrificed; and brave words have been stripped of their force by indecision. "I desire to see our diplomacy restored to its best standards, and to have these advanced; to have no sacrifices of national interests to partisan expediency; to have the,first ability of the country always a t its command, here and abroad, in diplomatic intercourse; to maintain firmly our rights under our laws; insisting steadfastly upon our rights- as neutrals and fully performing our international obligations; and by the clear correctness and Justice of our position, and our manifest ability and disposition to sustain them, to dignify our place among the nations. "I stand for an Americanism which knows no ulterior purpose, for a patriotism which is single and complete. Whether native or naturalised, of whatever race or creed, we have but one country, and we do not for an instant tolerate any divisions of allegiance. "I believe in making prompt provision to assure absolutely our national security. "I believe In preparedness, not only entirely adequate for our defense with respect to numbers and equipment in both army and navy, but with all thoroughness to the end that in each branch of the service there may be the utmost efficiency under the most competent administrative heads. "We are devoted to the ideal of honorable peace. We wish to promote all wise and practicable measures for the Just settlement of International disputes. In view of our abiding ideals, there is no danger of militarism In this country. "We have no policy of aggressiveness; no lust for territory; no seal for strife. It la in thlB spirit that we demand adequate provision for national defense and we condemn the Inexcusable neglect that has been shown in this matter of first national importance. "We must have the strength which self-respect demands, the strength of an efficient nation ready for every emergency." were appointed and organized and routine convention business went forward. There was only moderate expression of enthusiasm at any time. With the hope of agreeing an a presidential candidate whom both parties might support, the Progressives, in convention at the Auditorium, and the Republicans appointed a Joint conference committee Thursday, and this committee met at the Chicago club. Shortly after midnight It was announced that no progress had been made toward fusion of the two parties. The Republican members of this committee were Senator Reed 8moot of Utah, W. Murray Crane, ex-senator from Massachusetts; Senator William E. Borah of Idaho, Nicholas Murray Butler of New York, president of Columbia university; A. R. Johnson of Ohio, a former congressman. The Progressive members were Gov. Hiram Johnson of California, Horace S. Wilkinson of New York, Charles J. Bonaparte of Maryland, former attorney general, John M. Parker of Loulblana, George W. Perkins of New York. The Progressive convention opened at exactly the same time the Republicans started their meeting. Temporary Chairman Raymond Robins delivered the Progressive policy speech. Routine business followed—but It wasn't routine In the same way as the Republican session was, The Progressives, with such men as William Allen White, Victor Murdock and Hiram Johnson, were loudly enthusiastic. This convention was really an explosive affair—cheers, table pounding, radical talk and all that Career of Justice Hughes, Charles Evans Hughes' fame rests principally on his conduct of the insurance investigation and hit career as governor of New York state.

The Russians also captured 30 guns and aa enormous quantity of booty. The army of General Techitskyn alone, operating in the direction of Czernowitz, capital of Bukowina, the statement adds, overwhelmed the Austro- Hungarian8 and took 18,000 prisoners. The advance of the Russians is notable for the large number of prisoners taken and the enormous captures of guns> machine guns, ammunition and other war stores. In the week that has elapsed since they first threw their attacks against the Austrians, the Russians have captured approximately 108,000 officers and men and forced back the organized lines of their antagonists from the region of the Volhynian fortress triangle to Rumania. Having previously captured Lutsk, the Russians now have retaken Dubno, the second of the fortresses In the Volyhynlan triangle held by the Austrians and art pressing the retreating Austrians westward. In Galicia and Bukowina progress also has been made by the Russians. The Austrians all along the battle front are putting up a stubborn resistance, especially east of Kolkl, lying to the north of Lutsk where they have forced back Russian advanced elements across the Styr river, and in the region of Torgovitsky, on the Styr, south of Lutsk, where a sanguinary battle is in progress.

An unverified report was to the effect that the horses had been recovered, but whether any fighting had taken place v a s not known. Two American cowboys, George Conover and Arthur Myers, were captured and carried off, but were released and reached Palefox, Texas, 50 miles from Laredo.

My Farmer Cornea. Three days later I closed the deal and hastened back to college. Professor Grey of the college botanical department assigned his chief assistant at the gardens to my case. He took me to Boston, and In one day spent exactly $641 of my precious savings, while I gasped, helpless In my ignorance. He bought, it appeared to me, barrels of seeds, tons of fertilizers, thousands of wheel hoes for horse and man, millions of pruning saws and spraying machines, hotbed frames and sashes, tomato trellises, and I knew not what other nameless implements and impedimenta. This was rather disconcerting. But the die was cast, and I came to a sudden realization that seven years of teaching the young idea how to punctuate isn't the best possible training for running a farm, and if I were to get out of my experiment with a whole skin ! had got to turn to and be my own chief laborer, and hereafter my own purchaser, as well. All that night I packed and planned, and the next morning I left college forever. I slipped away quietly, before the chapel bell bad begun to ring, avoiding all tender good-bys. I had a stack of experiment-station bulletins In my grip, and during the four hours I spent on the train my eyes never left their pages. Four hours is not enough to make a man a qualified agriculturist, but it is sufficient to make him humble. I landed at Bentford station, hired a hack, and drove at once to my farm, and my first thought on alighting was this: "Good, Lord, I never realized the frightful condition of that orchard I It will take me a solid week to save any of It, and I suppose I'll have to set out a lot of new trees besides. More expense!" "It's a dollar up here," said the driver of the hack, in a mildly Insidious voice. I paid him brusquely and he drove away. I stood in the middle of the road, my suitcase beside me, the long afternoon shadows coming down through my dilapidated orchard, and surveyed the scene. Milt Noble had gone. So had my enthusiasm. The house was bare and desolate. It hadn't hmm painted for twenty years, at least T sfcrfded. My trunks, which I bad ahead by express, were standing isolately on the kitchen porch. Belted me I heard my horse stamping in the stable, and saw my two cows feeding in the pasture. A postcard from one Bert Temple, my nearest neighbor up the Slab City road, had Informed me that he was milking them for me—and, I gathered, for the milk. Well, if he didn't, goodness knew who would 1 I never felt so lonely, to helpso hopeless, in my life. Then an odd fancy struck me. George 1%Maredlth made his living, too, by read- Jhg manuscripts for a publisher! The picture of George Meredith trying to reclaim a New England farm as an avocation restored my spirits, though Just why perhaps it would be difficult to make anyone but a fellow English instructor understand. I suddenly tossed my suitcase .into the barn, and began a tour of Inspection over my thirty acres. Tfcere was tonic in that turn! That brook ran south close to the road which formed my eastern boundary, along the entire extant of the farmsome three hundred yards. As I followed the brook into the maples and then into the sudden hushed quiet of my little stand of pines, I thought how all this was mine—my own, to play with, to develop as a sculptor molds his clay, to walk in, to read in, to dream in. Think of owning even a half-acre of ptne woods, stillest and coolest of spots! A single great ptne, with wide iprssdlHg, branches, like a cedar of stood at the stone wall, just Inside a y coeyiuoHT a* ooueu&Omy, ****j,e ^ CO. | out of tlil»I" I gala aloud, as 1 set off for the barn, gathered up my suitcase, and climbed the road toward Bert Temple's. If I live to be a hundred, I can never repay Bert Temple, artist in cauliflowers and best of friends in my hour of need. Bert and his wife took me in, treated me as a human, If helpless, fellow being, not as a "city man" to be fleeced, and gave me the best advice and the best supper a man ever had, meantime assuring me that my cows had been tested, and both were sound. The supper came first I hadn't eaten such a supper since grandmother died. There were brown bread Joes— only rival of Rhode Island Johnny cake for the title of the lost ambrosia of Olympus. They were so hot that the butter melted over them instantly, and crisp outside, with delicious, runny lnsides. "Mrs. Temple,". said I, "I haven't eaten brown bread Joes since I was a boy. I didn't know the secret existed any more." Mrs. Temple beamed over her ample and calico-covered bosom. "Ton must hev come from Essex or Middlesex counties," she said, "if you've et brown bread Joes before." After supper Bert took me In hand. "First thing fer you to do's to git a farmer and carpenter," he said. MI kin git yer both, if yer want I should, an' not sting yer. Most noo folks thet come here gits stung. Seema like Bentford thinks thet's why they come!" "I'm clay In your hands," said L "Wall, yer don't exactly know me intimately," said Bert with a laagh, "so yer'd better git a bit o' granite into yer system. Neow, ez to a farmer —there's Mike Finn. He lives 'bout a quarter of a mile from your corner. He'll come an' his son'U help out with the heavy work. We'll walk deown an* see him neow, ef yer like." I liked, and in the soft spring evening we set off down the road. "Wal, then, ez to carpenters," Bert went on, "thar's good carpenters, an' bad carpenters, an' Hard Cider Howard. Hard Cider's fergotten more about carpenf rin' then most o' the rest ever knoo, and he ain't fergot much, «sjoasobody ought to get 'AH That Night I Packed Planned." and neither. But he ain't handsome, and he looks upon the apple juice when if s yaller. Maybe yer don't mind looks, an' I kin keep Hard Older sober while he's on yonr Job. He'll treat yer fair, an* see thet the plumbers do." We walked on, turned the corner at my brook, and followed the other road along past my pines tin we came to a small settlement of white cottages. At one of these Bert knocked. We were admitted by a pretty, blue-eyed Irish girl, who had a copy of Caesar's "Commentaries* in her hand, into a tiny parlor, where an "airtight" stove stood below a colored chromo of the Virgin and Child, and a middle-aged Irishman sat in his shirtsleeves, smoking a pipe. "Hello, Mike," said Bert, "this is Mr. John Upton, who's bought Milt Noble*! place, an' wants a farmer and gardener. 1 told him you wus the man." "gtt down, eor, sit down," said Mike, offering a chair with an expansive and hospitable gesture, Wtore, let*s talk K over." Tfce pretty daughter had gone back to bar Caesar by the nickel oil tamp, but she had one ear toward us, and 1 caught a corner of her eye, too—an extremely attractive, not to say provocative eye. "Well, now," Mike was saying, "sure I can run a farm, but what do I be gettin* fer l t r "Fifty a month," said 1, "which includes milking the cowa and tending furnace In winter." "Sure, I got more than that on me last place and no cows at all." "Ye're a liar, Mike," said Bert. T h a t ' s a flghttn' word lu the ould country," said Mike. "This ain't the old country, and yer got forty-five dollars," Bert grinned- "Besides, ye'll be close to yer work. You wuz a mile au' a half fruui the Sulloways. Thet makes up fer the mllkin'." "True, true." Mike replied, meditatively. "But what be yer runnlu' the place for, Mr. Upton? Is It a real farmer ye'd be?" "A real farmer," I answered, "Why?" "Well, I didn't know. I've heard say yer wuz a literary feller, too, Mr. Upton, and I have me doubts." "Well, I'm a sort of a literary feller," I confessed. "But it's you I want to be the real literary feller, Mike. You must write me a poem In potatoes." Mike put back his head and roared. "It's a pome yer want is It?" he cried. "Sure, ifs an oration I'll give ye. I'll grow ye the real home rule pertaters." "Well," said I, rising, "do you begin tomorrow morning, and will yonr son help for a few weeks?" "The mornin' It la," said Mike, "and Joe along." I paused by the side of the girl. "All Gaul Is divided into three parts," 1 laughed. She looked up with a pretty smile. but Mike spoke: "Sure, but they give all three parts to Nora," he said, "so what was the use o' dividln' It? She thinks she's me mlther instead o* me daughter!" "I'll put you to bed in a minute," said Nora, while Mike grinned proudly at her. "I'm going to like Mike," said I to Bert, as we walked back up the road. "I knoo yer would soon ez I seen yer," Bert replied. "The only folks thet don't like Mike is the folks thet can't see a joke. Mike has a tolerable number o* dlslikers." "Well, I've got my farmer," said 1, "and now I suppose I've got to And a housekeeper, as soon as the bouse Is ready to live in. Nora would suit me." "I reckon she would, "but she wouldn't suit Bentford." "In other words, I want an oldish woman, very plain, and preferably n widow." "With a young son old enough ter help on the farm," Bert added with i grin. "I don't suppose you know of Just such a combination?" "Reckon I dew. You leave it to my old lady." "Mr. Temple," said I, "seema to rat* I'm leaving everything to you." "Wal, neow, yer might do a beat sight worse!" said Bert 1 went up to my chamber when we got back, and sat down beside my little glass lamp and did some figuring Added to my alleged salary as a manuscript reader, along with what ! hoped I could pick up writing, I reck lessly calculated my annua! Income as a possible $3,000. Out of this I subtracted $600 for Mike's wages, $3(50 for a housekeeper, $400 for additional labor, $75 for taxes, and $500 for additions to my "plant" as 1 began to call my farm. Then It occurred to me that 1 ought, of course, to sell my farm produce for a handsome profit Bert had gone to bed, so I couldn't ask him how much I would be likely to realize. But with all due conservatism I decided that 1 could safely join the golf club So 1 did, then and there. Whereupon I feK better, and, picking out the manuscript of a novel from my bag, I went bravery at the task of earning my living. CHAPTER i n . Joy in an Old Orchard. The following morning was a balmy and exquisite first of May and Bert hustled cue off Immediately after break fast to aieet Hard Cider Howard, whom, by some rural wireless, he had already anoanuoued. A* we walked down the road. I glanced toward my loue pine, and saw m> horse aod Mike's bitched to the plow, with Joe driving and Mike boldlug the bandies. Across the green pasture, between the road and jhe bay field, already four rich brown furrows were shining up to the sun. At the house we found awaiting a strange-looking man. small, wrinkled, unkempt, with a discouraged mustache and a nose of a decidedly brighter hue than the rest of his countenance. He was tapping at the sills of the house. "How about It. Hard? Cement?" said Bert. Hard Cider nodded to me, with a keen glance from bis little, bloodshot eyes. "Yep," he said. "Stucco over It Brick underpinning be ez good ez noo. Go inside." We stepped upon the side porch, Bert banding me the key and I opening the door of my new dwelling with a secret thrill. Hard Cider at once began on the kitchen floor, ripping up a plank to examine the timbers beneath. We crossed the hall to the south side, where there were two corresponding rooms. Here, as on the other side, the chimney and fireplaces were on the inside walls, and the mantels were of a simple but very good colonial pattern, though they had been browned by smoke and time to a dirt color. "Now 1 want these two rooms made Into one," said I. "I want one of the doors into the hall closed up, and a glass door cut out of the south side to a pergola veranda. Can you do it?" Hard examined the partition. H« climbed on a box which we dragged in, and ripped away plaster and woodwork ruthlessly, both at the top and at places on the sides, all without speaking a word. "Yep," he said finally, "ef yer don't mind a big cross-beam showln'. She's solid oak. Yer door, though, '11 have to be double, with a beam ID the middle." "Fine!" I cried. "One to go in by, one to go out Guests please keep to the right!" "Hev ter alter yer chimney," he added, "or yer'll hev two fireplaces."

You see 1 now put this twenty thousand dollars down in Mr. Jones' left-hand pocket Now, I shall give anyone here one hundred dollars in gold who will prove to this audience that Mr. Jones is not exactly twenty thousand dollars richer than he was before. Ah, I see no one is foolish enough to claim this one hundred dollars. , What's that? Will I explain how 1 can afford to be so generous? With pleasure. You see, while you were watching me put twenty thousand dollars into Mr. Jones' left-hand pocket, 1 was busy taking this other roll here out of his right-hand pocket. Now this larger roll contains two handred thousand I dollars (the amount of money received I by the saloons of your town from your 1 citizens every year). And so you see | that Mr. Jones, instead of being twen* ty thousand dollars richer than he wal before, is really one hundred and eighty thousand dollars poorer. "Strange you didn't notice that," you say. Not at all. You see, I made so much fuss about the twenty thousand dollars I was putting into Mr. Jones' left-hand pocket that I kept you from seeing me take the two hundred thousand dollars from his right-hand pocke t Every pickpocket knows this old trick.—The American Issue.

Not long ago a herd took possession of the short branch line from Patigurl to Ramihahi.

Just before Rockford, 111,, v^ted dry one of the saloonkeepers of the town, addressing a meeting of the Retail Liquor Dealers' association, is reported to have said: "If this town goes dry—as it probably will—you'll put up an awful howl. But cheer up! You'll be better off when you're driven out of the business. I can count on the fingers of one hand all of you who are really making more than wages. The breweries are getting the money. Youll not lose anything financially by being forced into other businesses. Most of yva wlH gain by the change. Nearly everyone of you is going down hill physically, Your saloons are a long way from being health resorts, You get about as much bad air in the course of a day as any set of men in this town. Then most of you take too much of your own medicine and too little exercise. But you'll keep on just as long as you're in the business, and you'll stay in it until you are driven out. And I think the time has come."

Since the prohibition of vodka the price of labor in Russia has gone up j In a remarkable manner, says Prof. J. i Y. Simpson in the British Weekly. "The peasant banks are full of money," j he tells us, "loans have been paid off, \ and agricultural Implements purchased on the Installment plan have been bought outright. Having su> piled themselves with gramophone! and watches and new clothes, the peasants now employ their money in buying land and even securities, o? starting little businesses. One hundred million roubles per month need to be spent on vodka; today it remain! In the economy of peasant life. On all hands, the people demand that it shall be banished forever. The last speech I heard in the duma was that of a peasant delegate insisting that the permanent prohibition of vodka be embodied: in legal enactment now."

T h e law dues, however, piohibit a set of men from intimidating one who wishes t o continue his e m - ployment, a s s a u h i n g him arid perhaps taking his very life. The laws of the state of Michigan give the employer the right to hire whom he pleases, just as they give the workman the right to choose his employer and place of employment. T h e law does not countenance violence during a strike or at any other time, ami if organized labor adherents are guilty of using violence, should they have the right to demand that they be exei:'.{ t frCrn the law on the gr< urn! that it is their employer's property at which they are directing such violence : If a court admonishes a man or body of men to cease using" violence, destroying property and assaulting workers, and the injunction is disregarded, i-h mid it be necessary for that court to call in a jury of twelve men to pass on the guilt that is admitted? But, says M r . Sugar, it is not a question of guilt; the guilt is self-evident. T h e proposition is to so fix t h e law that such violence cannot be interfered with. The ranks of organized labor a r e tilled in the main with honest, conscientious, industrious, patriotic workmen. In their very hearts the vast majority of these men have a deep respect for the mMesty of the law and for the property rights of an individual, be he an employer or not.

(From the United States Department at A*~riculturt>.) The treatment of seed potatoes with formaldehyde or wish corrosive sublimate has been recommended for many years a s a preventive of scab and other diseases carried on the tubers. Such treatment is, on the whole, profitable, but has several limitations which should be clearly recognized to prevent disappointment, according to the specialists of the department The object of disinfecting seed pota toes Is to destroy the germs of scab and other surface parasitea which might otherwise be planted with the seed and Infect the new crop. Only surface Infections are reached by this method. It is only partially effective against deep pits of common scab. Formaldehyde is less effective than corrosive Bublimate against the black sclerotla or resting bodies of rhizoctonia, or russet scab, and against pow dery scab. Neither chemical, as ordinarily used, will destroy silver scurf. Either one will kill surface infections of blackleg, but neither fusarium wilt nor late blight Infection in potato tubers can be reached by any seed treat ment, nor can any of the nonparasitic diseases of potatoes, such as mosaic leaf roll, and curly dwarf, be prevented. See Farmers' Bulletin 544 for description of these troubles. Clearly, therefore, the most important precaution against these diseases la to select clean, disease-free seed potatoes from healthy, vigorous plants, as determined by field inspection during the growing season and at harvest. Seed treatment should then be applied as an additional precaution. Soil Conditions and Potato Diseases Soil conditions have an important relation to potato tuber diseases, and many of these are widely spread throughout the country, perhaps naor poorly drained soils. Blackleg, on the other hand, Is carried by Infected se«d. No potatoes showing a deep brown discoloration at the stem end should be planted. Sulphur tends to prevent common scab, it is not a substitute for corrosive sublimate or formaldehyde, but is a good drier for cut seed. Applied to scab-infected soils at the rate oi 500 pounds per acre It reduces the scab, but such heavy applications cannot be generally recommended a s profitable. Preliminary experimental trials are advised. How to Disinfect Seed. The formaldehyde treatment consists of soaking the potatoes, before cutting, for two hours in a solution made by adding one pint of formal- Potato Affected With Russet Scab, Showing Russeting and Cracking Associated With Rhizoctonla of Western Potato. tlve to some soils. Common scab Is favored by a neutral or slightly alkaline soil, and seldom gives trouble In acid soils. It is therefore Increased by liming and by fresh stable manure, wood ashes, and alkaline fertilizers, such as nitrate of soda and ground bone, while acid phosphate and sulphate of ammonia tend to diminish scab. Rhizoctonla occurs to some extent In nearly all soils, but appears to attack potatoes most when t h e conditions are unfavorable to the best development of t h e potato plant Bring the land to an ideal state of tilth to minimise loss from rhizoctonla. Powdery scab Is worst on cold, w e t TREATING SCOURS IN HORSES Potato Affected With Commod Scab. dehyde to 30 gallons of water. The solution can be used repeatedly. The gas treatment is no longer recommended. Corrosive sublimate is used at the rate of 1-1,000 for one and one-half to two hours. Dissolve two ounces of the salt in hot water and dilute to 16 gallons. This Is a deadly poison. Use with great care. It must also be kept in wood, porcelain, or glass vessels, as It attacks metal. It is more effective than formaldehyde, particularly against rhizoctonia and powdery scab. Do not use the same solution more than three times, as the strength diminishes with each lot of potatoes soaked. To treat large quantities, Bet several barrels on a slightly elevated platform. Fit a plug In a hole in the bottom of each barrel, fill with potatoes, cover with solution, let stand two hours, draw off solution, and pour Into another barrel. Increase the number of barrels In proportion to the quantity to be treated. Another method is to use a large wooden vat or trough, into which the potatoes In Backs are lowered by a rope and pulley and later hauled out, drained, and dried on slatted racks. Seed potatoes may be treated several weeks before planting, provided they are not reinfected by storing in old containers or storage bins. Sprouted potatoes are Injured by treatment, but will throw out new sprouts. In general, however, potatoes will not be Injured by following the above directions. Many growers believe germination is Improved by treatment. PLAN FOR CUTTING SPINACH Convenient Way Is to Use Sharp Hoe to 81 Ice Off Large Plants of Edible Size. As convenient a way a s any for cutting spinach is to use a sharp hoe to slice off the large plants as soon as they reach the edible size, thus leaving the smaller ones for a week or two to grow larger. By so doing the season can be somewhat extended without risk of having the plants develop seed stalks, which they will start to do at the first hint of warm weather.

Georgette Crops Continues a Close Second to Chiffon in Favor — W h i t e 8llk Net Much Uaed by Smart Dreaamakere. Brer since the mill people learned to make chiffon cloth that was transparent and serviceable, women have gladly accepted it for blouses. Often they adopt the French trick of putting in a shoulderless lining of flesh-colored or white lace, and this, like many other things founded on the French knowledge of thrift and economy, keeps the garment in better condition and makes it give longer service, v This lining is loose and is made like a deep girdle, and instead ^ > Dainty Blouse of W h i t e Organdie W i t h Collar and Cuffs Embroidered In Light Blue. of attaching it in even the flimsiest way to the outside fabric, it is better to give it shoulder straps of narrow, flesh-colored satin ribbon. As a rival to chiffon cloth, georgette crepe has proven the most successful fabric. Its predecessors were failures, but it serves the need. It will remain In fashion as far ahead as a prophet can see, and yet it is having to share the honors of the hour with several other fabrics that have been brought to the front. Fine, colored muslins, solid and striped, are in the forefront of fashion, and white and colored organdies, which have been so extensively used for neckwear, have been cordially taken up by the makers of blouses, The plain white organdie waists are embroidered with one or more colors, sometimes in the simple and everpleasing design of scallops, again \p polka dots and triangles of brilliant red and blue, green, black, and yellow. Because polka-dot frocks are in fashion, we 'will be able to wear separate blouses of polka-dot fabrics with the pleased feeling that we are quite ID the middle of the picture. Taffeta and satin are not looked upon with any degree of warmth, but taffeta is applied to chiffon and then embroidered in gold and silver, to build up an o r nate blouse. White silk net of such a thinness of weave that one is caused to mistake it for tulle, has crept downward in the scale of dressing from a ball gown to a blouse. Its acceptance by the smart dressmakers for this purpose leads the way for the new net* that have come over from France foi gowns, such as point d'esprit and the net with the square or dot woven in i t The former is especially attractive for a blouse to be worn with a thin serge or silk s u i t Everyone knows by this time that the smartest of French blouses drops over the skirt instead of going undei it, after the manner of a miniature Russian blouse. Cheruit sent this out in white organdie, with a saah of colored silk, and it has led the way for a dozen other conceptions by our own dressmakers. One of the most successful ways la which it has been copied is in colored silk Jersey, touched up with a simple embroidered design in other brilliant colors, and held in by a wide belt of knitted silk like a man's cravat, fastened with a large, oblong silver buckle. Some of these blouses are in whits with a Pierrot design of black embroidery, but others, intended fot country wear, are of yellow, turquois« blue, and apple green. They fasten down the left side In a straight tin* from shoulder to hem and have a loose, mufflerlike collar and also fastens at the side, under the left ear. The majority of the sleeves are long in the summer blouses, as well as loose, and end in an ornamental cuff. They are Just as apt to have a high neck as a low neck.

At a senate executive session consent was obtained to waive its rule requiring three days' delay after a favorable vote on confirmation before the president is notified of the senate's action, and the president signed Mr. Brandeis' commission. British Headquarters in France, via London—Around famous Hill 60 and Sanctuary wood near Yprea) the Canadians have been doing the atlffest fighting of their experience in the course of the last two days' action. They have held the entire front attacked and, unless the fighting spreads, this is entirely their battle. Tike German gu&c had been relatively Quiet for some days, when they suddenly^ opened up the heaviest bombardment any Canadian veteran has known, using all kinds of gains from heavy howitzers to trench mortars, not only battering the trenchesi but covering a wide area of ground in the rear to prevent the bringing up of supports, "But 1B was not this time, as in the earlier battles on the Ypres salient, when the Germans four shells to one," "The British guns returned equal volumes on the Germans after they were In our trenches." Under support of gunfire the Canadian battalions, which Include many Americans, maintaining the traditions of the finst contingent last year at St. Jullen, immediately turned on the Germans in a series of J •"- ^ ^ ¾ W S £ * 3 i T H E MICHIGAN COAL MINES the position which they had lost. Parties rushed in at different points, bombing and bayonettlng right and left, and before their fierce work was ended, they had regained all but a few yards. - The German advance had been made over a front of 3,000 yards from Ypres-Comines railway to Hooge Point This was the most extensive front of any recent attack, and the Canadians responded to the test coolly and skillfully. In the Hooge sector, the German attack was stopped with heavy loss. The perplexity over the first news of the battle between the British and German fleets has been succeeded by satisfaction as fuller accounts are received. The Canadian troops and the German* have been battling fiercely on the Ypres salient. The German guns opened up several days ago, deluging the Canadian positions and the surrounding territory with shells. Then the German infantry advanced along an extended front of almost two miles. In a series of counter-attacks in which bomb and bayonet played an important part, the Canadians regained most of the lost ground and have reorganized their positions.

Saginaw—As a result of a disagreement over the new scale, all coal mines in the Michigan district have closed for an Indefinite period and all work will be suspended. This was assured when the Joint conference of miners and operators, with Commissioner Thomas W. Davis, adjourned sine die. The Michigan scale is based on the scale adopted in the competitive district and one of the changes effected in that district this year was the ehange from the screened t0 the mine run baBis on coal mined. This change is accepted, of course, for the Michigan district, but a difference of opinion developed in conference over the method of determining the mine run. It proved impossible to reconcile the views of the miners and operators. It is likely that the whole matter will now go to the national officers of the federation for adjustment. The closing down of the mines will affect approximately 1,500 men. INSULT TO EMBLEM: JAILED BIG PREPAREDNESS PARADE Pastor Must Serve Thirty Days in Jail — * and Pay s Fine of $1,000.

Before he was arraigned London.—The receipt in London of details of the naval battle in the North sea makee the result of the engagement considerably more comforting from the British standpoint tan was indicated by the earlier reports. Although the admiralty declines to make specific announcements of the destruction of German ships until definite verification has been obtained, it appears from the information now available that the German loss was sonsiderably higher than was at first announced. Furthermore and perhaps for the comfort of the inhabitants of tin British isles who are dependent upon the fleet for protection of still more importance, it is established that the main British fleet was not engaged and defeated, as would appear from the German reports received here, but that when the battle fleet arrived in response to Vice-Admiral Beatty'a call, the Gerrrrkn fleet retired to its base leaving the North sea as firmly an ever in the control of the British navy, On the German side, the German reports received announce that the full German high seas fleet was engaged. An unofficial report received late and not confirmed by the admiralty is to the eject that eight German vessels which took part in the battle were cut off by the British ships and were compelled to seel refuge In Danish waters. According to this report the Danish authorities have given them 24 hours in which to make necessary repairs and leave the territorial water, with the alternative of being interned, and British vessels are waiting for them should they decide to leave their refuge.

It is interesting to note that stores report a marked increase in the volume of cash business which they are doing and that the installment houses and others carrying many accounts with people of moderate means report that collections are very much better, payments made more promptly and, in a much increased proportion, without 'dunning.' "One entire set of arguments against prohibition is, it seems to me, knocked out by what is seen to be happening to the saloon. 'The poor man's club,' the saloon has often been called by some who sought to defend it and the attempt has been made to call prohibition class legislation, as depriving the poor man of a place for social intercourse with his fellows since he could not afford membership in a club, as more well-to-do men can. One finds that, under prohibition, many of the places which formerly were saloons are more nearly a poor man's club now than before. Games and a place to read his newspapers are provided for the customer, these places supporting themselves by the sale of temperance drinks, and so forth." Demand for Canadian Cattle After the War.

The Manufacturers and Dealers' association, an organization of the liquor interests with* headquarters in Chica go, is offering to furnish newspapers with antlprohibition material. In his letter to the editors Mr. Daniels, business manager of the association, says: "This Is not a liquor organization. We do not accept as a member anyone who deals in alcoholic liquors. We are tax paying business men who help make the wheels of commerce go round." It may be in order to ask, why discriminate against the liquor dealer?

The opportunities that Western Canada offers to the farmer have time and again been placed before the public through these columns. The cheap price at which the very best lands can be purchased, and the advantage that is to be had in securing one of the free homesteads of 160 acres has appealed to a great many, and they have embraced them. Many, in fact most of those who have done so are today giving testimony to the good fortune and the timely forethought that led them to go to Western Canada, and embark in an era of farming that has placed them away beyond the pinch of want and given them reason to look into the future with a hopefulness that they had not had the courage in the past to forecast. Not only have they been able to secure good lands at low prices and on easy terms but if they desired they have been able to add to this 160 acres of land free, on conditions that are easy. A resident in the Lloydminster district in Saskatchewan who had been farming in the States for some time, took up a homestead in 1910, and commenced breaking with 4 oxen. Two years ago he bought an adjoining quarter section and now has over 100 acres under cultivation. He says, "As my circumstances improved, I sold the oxen and now have six head of horses, twelve head of cattle, and havo always a bunch of hogs on hand. "On an average I have had yields of 25 bushels of wheat, 65 bushels of oats, and 40 bushels of barley to the acre, and last season from a field of 28½ acres, I threshed 1,040 bushels of wheat. I have made a success of mixed farming and would have no hesitation in advising all who contemplate making a new home to come to this j district. I sell cream to the Government Creamery here, and find at all - j times a good market for live stock and j other produce." This is but a modest statement of what a modest man can do in Western , Canada, and could be repeated of hundreds of others. j Scores of cases could be recited . where much more has been accom- [ plished, and it is believed that with ( moderate investment at the present time, the cattle industry of Western ; Canada will pay large interest The Minister of Agriculture of Saskatchewan, in a recent address, ven- I tured the prediction that the Sas- , katchewan farmer who developed his land along the lines of general stock breeding would make much more money and find a far bigger return for hifl efforts in ten yearb' time, than the man who devoted his energies purely and primarily tr. grain raising, This was the coming golden age of oppor- [unity for the stockmen arid it was up to the Saskatchewan man to get in on the ground floor and prepare himself for the coming demand. The close of the war \vc :'d undoubtedly see a great demand for live stock in Europe and it was only reasonable to suppose that this demand would have to be filled almost wholly bV\ American stockmen, both in Canada and the United States. Europe was slowly draining its rural districts not only of its beef and dairy animals but was also using the finer breeding animals and the end of the war would see a condition of affairs which would render necessary almost the repopulatlon of the domestic animal kingdom in that continent/ The opportunity of Western Canadian stockmen, therefore, lay in being prepared for this demand when it arose. In view of these facts which must be patent to every student of economic conditions as related to the stock industry, he hoped to see within the next three years the stock raising industry in Saskatchewan given an immense impetus forward, which would put it In the forefront of the producing provinces of the Dominion.—Advertisement Practical Philanthropy.

CHAPTER I. I Buy a Farm on 8ight. Some men who go luto teaching, and $t coarse all men who become great teachers, do have a genuine love for their work. Bat I am afraid 1 was one Of those unfortunates who take op teaching as a stop-gap, a means of livelihood while awaiting "wider opportu nitles." I bad been accredited with "brilliant promise" in my undergrad flate days, and the college had taken me Into the English department upou graduation. Well, that was seven years ago. 1 was still correcting daily themes. It was a warm night in early April. 1 had a tonch of spring fever, and wrote vicious, sarcastic comments on the poor undergraduate pages of uoexpresaiveness before me, as through my -open windows drifted op from the yard a snatch of song from some returning theater party. 1 closed my eyes In memory—memory of my grandfather's farm down In Essex county. The sweet call of the village church bell came back to me, the drone of the preacher, the smell of lilacs outside. the stamp of an impatient horse In the horse sheds where liniment for man and beast was advertised on tin posters! "Why don't 1 go back to It, and give tip this grind?" I thought. Then, being an Engilsb Instructor, I added learnedly, "and be a disciple of Rousseau!" It was a warm April night, and I was foolish with spring fever. I began to play with the idea. I got up and opened my tin box, to Investigate the visible paper tokens of my little fortune. There was. In all, about $30,000, the result of my legacy from my parents and my slender savings from my slender salary, for I had never bad any extravagances except books and golf balls. I bad heard of farms being bought for $1,000. That would still leave me more than $1,200 a year. Twelve hundred dollars a year would hardly be enough to ran even a $1,500 farm on, not for a year or two, because I should have to hire help. I must find something practical to do to support myself. What? What could I do, except put sarcastic comments on the daily themes of helpless undergraduates? I went to bed with a very poor opinion of English instructors. But God, as the hymn remarks, works in a mysterious way his wonders to perform. Waking with my flicker of resolution quite gone out 1 met my chief in the English department, who quite floored me by asking me if I could find the extra time— "without Interfering with my academic duties"—to be a reader for a certain publishing bouse which had Just consulted bim about filling a va cancy. 1 told him frankly that if 1 got the job I might give op my present post and buy a farm, but as he didn't think anybody could live on a mano script reader's salary, be laughed and didn't believe me, and two days later I had the job. It would be a secret to disclose my salary, but to a mao who had been an English Instructor in an American college for seven years tipoked good enough. Then came tn > Caster vacation. Professor Farus worth of the eco- •omlcs department bad Invited me on a motor trip for the holidays. (The professor married a rich widow.) "As the Cheshire cat said to Alice," he explained, "It doesn't matter which way you go, if you don't much care where you are going to; and we don't do w e r "Yea," I said, «1 want to look at farms." But he only laughed, too. "Anyhow, we won't look at a single undergrad oste," he said. In the course of our motor flight from the Eternal Undergraduate, we reached one night a certain elm-bung New England village noted for its views and its palatial summer estates, and put up st the hotel there. The pro* feasor, whose hobby Is real estate values, fell into a discussion with the suave landlord on the subject, considered locally. (Being a state congressman, he was unable to consider anything except locally!) Toe landlord, to our astonishment informed us that building sites oa the village street and lbs nearby bills sold ss nigh as fsVOOO "What does farm land cost?" 1 Inquired sadly. "As mucu as the farmer can Induce you to pay." he laughed. "But if you were a farmer, you migb,t get it for one hundred dollars an acre." "I am a farmer," Bald i. "Where is there a farm for sale?" The landlord looked at me dubiously. But he volunteered this information: "When you leave In the morning, toward Slab City, about half a mile beyond the second estate, you'll come to a crossroad. Turn up that and ask for Milt Noble at the first bouse you come to. Maybe he'll sell." It was a glorious April morning when we purred softly up the Slab City road and reached the crossroad A groggy signboard hand pointed to "Albany." We ran up the road a hundred yards of the fifty miles to Albany, crossed a little brook, and stopped the motor at what I Instantly knew for my abode. 1 cannot tell you how I knew It. One doesn't reason about such things any more than one reasons about falling in love. At least I'm sure I don't nor could I set out In cold blood to seek a residence, calculating water supply, quality of neighbors, fashlonableness of site, nearness to railroad, num ber of closets, and all the rest I saw the place, and knew It for mine—that's all. , As the motor stopped, 1 took a lone look to left and right sighed, and said to the professor: "1 hereby resign my position as Instructor in English, to take effect Immediately." The professor laughed. He dldnt yet believe I meant it The bouse was set with its side to the road, about one hundred feet into the lot A long ell ran out behind, evtbunding In the Door Contemplating Our Car. dently containing the kitchen and then the sheds and outhouses. The eld* door, on a grape-shadowed porch, wss In this ell. facing the barn across the way. The main body of the dwelling was the traditional, simple block, with a fine old doorway, composed of simple Doric pilasters supporting a band hewn broken pediment—now. alas! broken in mors than an architectural sense. It wss s typical bouse of the splendid carpenter-and-buiMer period of a century ago. This front door faced Into an aged and now sadly dilapidated orchard. The winters bad racked toe poor old orchard, and great limbs lay on the ground. What remained were bristling with suckers. The sills of the boose were still bidden under banks of leaves, held in place by boards, to keep out the wloter cold. There were no curtains in the windows, nor much sign of furniture within. Prom <thW view the old bouse looked abandoued. It bad evidently not been pslntsd for twenty years.

"Dont you want to sell?" said I. **I might" he answered. "Suppose we take a took Into the bouse?" suggested the professor. The old man moved languidly from the door. As he stepped, bis old black trouser leg pulled up over bis shoe-top. and we saw that be wore no stockings. He paused in front of the motor car. "How much did thet benzine buggy cost?" he asked. "Four thousand dollars," said the owner. The gray eyes darted a look into the professor's face; then they became enigmatic "Powerful lot o' money," be mused, moving on. "Whar's youru?" he added to me. "If 1 bad one of those, 1 couldn't have your farm." said 1. He squinted shrewdly. "Dunno's yer kin, anyway, do ye?" was his reply. He now led us Into the kitchen. We saw the face of the old lady peering at ua from the "butt'ry." A modern range was backed up against a bujje, old-fashioned brick oven, no longer used. A copper pump, with a brass knob on the curved handle, stood at one end of the sink—"Goes ter the well." said Milt The Boor was of an clent hardwood planking, now worn into polished ridges. A door led up a low step into the main house, which consisted, downstairs, of two rooms, dusty and disused, to the left and two similar rooms, used as bedrooms, to the south (all four containing fireplaces), and a ball, wbere a staircase with carved rail led to the ball above, flanked by four chambers, each with its fireplace, too. Over the kitchen was a long, unfinished room easily convert ed into a servants' quarters. Secretly pleased beyond measure at the excel lent preservation of the Interior, I kept a discreet silence, and with an air of great wisdom began my Inspection of the farm. Twenty acres of the total thirty wer? on the stde of the road with the house, and the lot was almost square—about three hundred yards to a side. The land had, 1 fancied, been neglected for many years, like the tumbling stone WJLJJS which bounded It.

"Look here," said I. "I'm a Yankee too nud 1 can answer one queatlou with another just as long as you can What do you expect me to give you?' The old man spat meditatively, and wipvd bia whlakenj with the back of bitt hand. "Pitt Perkins got five hundred dol lars au acre for hia place," aald he "How'd eight thousand dollars strlkf you?" 1 took the bottle of well water from my pocket, and extended it toward him "Here." I said, "there's no need for me to have this analyzed." "Seven?" said he. "Four!" said I. "Six?" said he, "Not a cent over four," said I. "All right" said he, "didn't much want ter sell, anyhow." And he pock ete<i the bottle. I climbed Into the car. The engine bep:in to throb. The professor put on his gloves. "Five," said Milt "with the hoss an two Jerseys an1 all the wood In the shed." He was standing In the road beside the modern motor car, a pathetic old figure to me, so like my grandfather In many ways, the last of an ancient order. Poverty, decay, was written on him, as on his farmstead. "It's yours," 1 cried. 1 got out of the car again, and we made arrangements to meet in the village and put the deal through. Then I asked him the question which had been pressing from the first "Why do you sell?" lie pointed toward a distant estate, with great chimneys and gables, crowning a hill. "This hain't my country no more," he said, with a kind of mournful dignity. "It's theirs. I guess five thousand dollars 'II last me 'bout as long as my breath will. Yer got a good farm here—if yer can afford ter put some money back inter the soil." He looked out over his fields and we looked mercifully Into the motor. The professor backed the car around, and we said good-by, "Well!" I cried, as we spun down over the bridge at my brook, "I've got a country estate of my own! I've got a borne! I've got freedom!"

He's a good feller, Just the same, so long as his wind holds out" Fore and Aft. "What do you think of these weather forecasts?" "I think they might be nearer right if they were aftercABts." Concentrated Satisfaction A great many former users of tea and coffee have learned that there ie a pure food beverage made from wheat, which haa a delightful flavor.

As the H. S. were only able to get in one run this inning, the game ended with the acore 0 to ::. Batteries, Hendee and Shehan, and Swarthout and Swarthout. Oak Grove H. S. were here with a bunch of Sluggers, that had things all their own way, shutting Pinckney H. S. out by 21 to '>. The Pinckney boys were played out with their exertions in the first game and failed to even make things interesting for Oak Grove. Lyle Herriee had the misfortune to be hit in the head, while dodging a pitched ball, knocking him down during the first game. He soon recovered from this, but daring the Becond game he was again hit in the head with a pitched ball, cutting the scalp and knocking him senaelew. He wie taken to the sanatorium but did not oome to for aome time. No aerioua result* are expected. CHILSQN P0ST0FFICE T o J o i n t h e R e t i r e d L i s t o f S o m e 10 O P 1 2 Y P « . A g o Some 10 or 12 years ago the postoffice department at Washington wiped off the map the small country postoffices, the patrons being served from that time 1 on by the rural routes. At that time Livingston county lost a number of country offices, Roston in Green Oak, Petteysville in Hamburg, Anderson in Putnam, Plainfield and Wrights in Unadilla, Pingree in Marion, Fleming in West Howell, Cohoctah in Cohoctah township, Madison and Deerneld in | Deerfield and Haller's and Parshallville in Hartland township. All patrons in the territory of those country postoffices ! for so many years have ever since their disbandment, been served by the rural 1 carriers and are being served today. The last small office in the country is Chilson. This office has hung on well, but of late there has been no great amount of business done at that place, as the rural routes from Howell and Brighton are serving the patrons. Neither does there seem to be any over anxious canidates for the office of late. So an order has been issued which wil go into effect June 1, placing the Chilson office on the retired list with ail the other country postoffices some 10 or 12 years ago, and all the patrons in that vicinity will receive their mail by rural delivery from Howell or Brighton.

A short time ago a gentleman who stands very high in the | financial and manufacturing world of distilled spirits c&me into my office, as I supposed, for a visit of courtesy.

No flower in all the garden series is tnore beloved than the Btar-eyed daisy, or marguerite. And perhaps no flower has undergone a more decided improvement than this same flower, which fills the meadow spaces with Its nodding white and In better soil looks Btmteller from the garden path. The daisy Bhould have a place In the garden. They make delightful bord e r s to beds of taller-growing annuals, and can be used very effectively In beds of spring-blooming bulbs. Daisies may be sown at Intervals for succession, in shallow boxes of light, rich soil. Cover the seed to about t h r e e times their own thickness, and press the soil firmly over them. Keep the box in a warm window, greenhouse o r hotbed. Transplant to new boxes and set out In the open ground when danger from frost Is past. Daisies can be sown In beds outside in August or September. They must be protected with atraw or litter through the winter and transplanted to their permanent position in the spring. The orange daisy, South African orange daisy, has become a great favorite. It was Introduced a few years ago and has been made much of at the flower shows and is used largely on big estates. It is excellent for bord e r s and as a pot-plant. THE WHITE CARNATION By BETTY PAKE. "The search for the pure white eartxatlon. one that will \ e e p its pure color for & long period, has never been quite successful It is a fact that the average variety remains under cultivation but a l e w years, and they are constantly running o u t They must, herefore, cons t a n t l y be replact-d by newer and more vigorous varieties grown from t h e seed. Often a carnation that produces beautiful write flowers for two or three years fails entirely after that time. The common garden soil will not do for the carnation. It should be composed of about three-fourths rich, dark loam and one-fourth well-rotted manure. This should be thoroughly mixed several times and by September the first cuttings Bhould be placed In boxes about five inches deep. Set the plants about ten inches apart. Syringe thoroughly with water until they have a good Btart. The plants should be Btaked in order to keep the flowers above the foliage. If you want large flowers you must disbud the plantb judiciously. Give them plenty of water and ventilation, and syringe with tcbacco extract to discourage the red spider. THE BEAUTY OF HYDRANGEAS By LIMA R. ROSE. One of the best late flowering, hardy shrubs is the hydrangea. While there are other shrubs that I like better, this one seems to be a favorite with the masses. It has the merit of extren* hardiness, easy culture, great floriferousness, late blooming and persistency. Us flowers lose their early whiteness aa the season advances, but in their pinky brown stage they are not without attractiveness, and even after snow comes they afford pleasing effects when seen against a background of pure white. In planting the hydrangeas. I would never advise using them singly. They are vastly more effective when grouped. By this means we secure for It a strength and dignity which single specimens never have. Planted thickly this plant produces a grand effect. Those who are In search of a plant that will grow i n a Q y rol1 a n d under almost any condition, and has hardiness enough to withstand the trying ordeal of the severest northern winter, will find the hydrangea the very thing they are looking for. , DETROIT—Cattle: Receipts, 1,554.

"Low-yielding acres, like boarder | cows, are often fatal to successful farming," according to J. C. McDowell of the office of farm management, United States department of agriculture, in the new year book. "Our farm survey records show that areas of poorly drained, compact and sour soils, or soils low in humus, greatly reduce net profits. Sometimes these records show that aa much as 30 per cent of the entire farm acreage does not produce enough to pay its way "One farm in Wisconsin, on which records were recently taken, has 40 acres of poorly drained land that in Its present condition is practically worthless. Twenty-five dollars per acre spent in drainage will make this 40-acre tract the equal of any in that district, and good land is selling there at $150 per acre. "The successful business man always tries to weed out all unprofitable enterprises and to expand those that pay a profit Unprofitable acres cannot always be disposed of as readily as boarder cows, but usually they can be improved until they become profit bearing. If the income from such land cannot be Increased it is quite possible that the labor spent upon it can be reduced until the income at leaBt pays a little more than the cost of labor. Itemize Before Purchasing. "In buying a farm, unprofitable acres that cannot easily be made profitable should ordinarily be considered as having little or no agricultural value. They may even be a burden to their owner, in which case they have a negative value. A farmer was abeut to buy a quarter-section farm In the com belt at $100 per acre. This appeared to him to be a very reasonable price for a farm in that region, until a careful analysis of Uie proposition called his attention to the large amount of waste land on the farm. Actual measurements and careful estimates furnished the following data: 80 acres rich, sandy loam, not stony, not rough, gently sloping, well drained; actual value $126 per acre; J125X80 $10,000 45 acres poor land, sandy, stony, rough, hilly, probably of little or no agricultural value: actual value , 0 SB acres poor pasture land, wet land that can be drained, but that cannot be drained at a profit; actual value $10 per acre; $10x36 350 Buildings 2,450 Total $12,900+160=180, .$12,800 "These figures gave the farm, Including buildings, a value of $S0 per acre, though a part of it was worth consid- FASTENING WIRES TO POST Difficult Problem Said to Have Been Successfully Worked Out—-Idea Looks Sensible.

An itemized study of the farm, acre by acre, and a detailed study of fences, buildings and other improvements, should always be made before purchasing. Such investigation often calls attention to enough unprofitable acres to stop the sale. Utilization of Unprofitable Acres. "To what extent and at what rate we shoul 1 attempt to decrease the number of unprofitable acres depends largely on the increased demand for agricultural products. The law of diminishing returns prevents the reclamation of waste land until the rising prices or cheaper methods of production make such action practicable. Frequently it pays better to spend time and money in the further improvement of acres that are now profitable rather than in the reclamation of less desirable land. "Much money and valuable time Is lost each year in almost every locality in the attempt to put unprofitable acres on a paying basis. Lack of satisfactory agricultural credit forces many a deserving family to waste time in trying to get a start on acres that moneyed men pass by. Misleading advertisements and inflated magazine articles have lured many a family to give up a comfortable living in the city to drag out a miserable existence in toil and worry on worthless land. Lack of knowledge of the business side of farming is largely responsible for loss in the management of unprofitable acres. The problem of how to prevent a waste of money, time and energy in the attempt to develop worthless land is worthy of careful study. At best such waste can only partially be prevented. The pity of it is that so much of this loss falls on those who can least afford to lose. "Every farmer who owns unprofitable land should make a detailed examination of his farm, acre by acre, to detect all unprofitable areas. Next, he should determine the approximate cost of making each acre pay its way. Such study will disclose what and how much is needed in the way of manure, commercial fertilizer, drainage or other preparation, to produce satisfactory crop yields. This analytical study of each portion of the farm will sometimes call attention to many acres that cannot be cultivated profitably. It is better to leave such land in permanent pasture, or even to let it lie idle, than to work it at a loss. The farm not only furnishes a home, but it is a place of business. As such, each enterprise and acre should receive individual attention, and, so far as practicable, the entire farm should be placed on a paying basis.*' won, for the question of how to fasten wire to concrete posts has been a difficult one.

" Narrow Table W i t h Bench Beneath, Mirror Above, Sole Furnishing of a Small Hall. and t h e question is often h a r d e r t o answer because of t h e limitations of space, light, etc. Once in a while a thoroughly convenient article of furniture passes into disuse. Everyone rails against it. It Is jeered a t and derided and utterly condemned with t h e exclamation: "Why, I didn't know anyone ever used t h a t nowadays." P r e s t o !

Meek, of J a m e s Milliken University, will give t e n lectures on "Old Testament P r o p h e t s , " aa interpreted from the historical, economic a n d sociological points of view. A course of talks on t h e educational activities of t h e church will be in charge of Rev. A. R. Atwood of Lansing. In addition to these t h e College will also offer a series of popular lectures on agricultural topics dealing with agricultural resources of Michigan, extension activities, horticulture, dairying, poultry raising, soils, etc. It will be t h e aim in these to provide a background for t h e right view of rural problems. T h e Michigan Agricultural College is coming to believe t h a t it has a responsibility in develiping t h e right kind of social success In country communities as well as economic success. In fact, Kenyon L. Butterfleld, prenid e n t of t h e M a s s a c h u s e t t s Agricultural College, just about epitomizes t h e situation when he says in his book, " T h e Country Church and t h e Rural Problem," "I hold t h a t t h e problem of t h e Country Church is t h e most important aspect of the rural problem. It touches the highest point in t h e direction of rural life. It sounds t h e deepest note in the harmonizing of the factors of a p e r m a n e n t rural civilization. It speaks t h e most eloquent word in t h e struggle to maintain t h e s t a t u s of t h e farming class," Home Economics Conference, The M. A. C. has also scheduled, for tho coming summer, a conference in Home Economics, designed for teachers of this subject in schools, club women, and all others interested. This will take place July 10 to 14th. T h e sessions will be addressed by women of state and national reputation. Any one interested further in these conferences should address Director Summer Session> E a s t Lansing, Michigan. Cattle Feeding Proves Profitable. A steer feeding experiment, recent- j ly concluded a t t h e Michigan Agricul- : tural College, shows t h a t steers can ; be fed in Michigan a t a profit. j Eighteen steers were sold on t h e Chicago m a r k e t for $1,978.47. T h e i r . total cost w a s $1,842.79, giving a . profit of $135.68 or 7 p e r cent on the | i n v e s t m e n t for five months. In flgur- ] ing cost, t h e cost of feeds and mar- | k e t i n g w a s added to t h e Initial cost of 7c p e r pound. Feed w a s figured as follows: Cottonseed meal, $38.00 per t o n ; alfalfa hay, $12.00; corn, 70c per bushel, corn silage, $4.40 per t o n ; cull beans $15.00 p e r ton. F o r t h e part of this feed which a farmer could produce himself t h e price allowed is high enough to g u a r a n t e e a very good profit on Its production ,as well a s getting a profit from t h e steers fed. F o r t h e purposes of experiment t h o s t e e r s wars divided into t h r e e lots of six steers each. Each lot w a s given t h e s a m e feed except g r a i n which w a s cottonseed m e a l for o n e . bean meal for one a n d cooked b e a n s for t h e third. It is interesting to n o t e t h a t t h e profits on t h e t h r e e lots were $58.90. $41.58 a n d $35.20 respectively. T h a t t h e e x p e r i m e n t showed such a good profit Is d u e i n p a r t t o t h e spread of t w o cents b e t w e e n t h e buyi n g a n d selling price.- H a d this difference been bnt o n e a n d one-half cents t h e profit would h a v e ben a b o u t t per c e n t T h i s b e a r s out t h e general belief t h a t in o r d e r to m a k e money feeding c a t t l e a difference of one sad one-half c e n t s between cost and sale price should b e obtained.

Washington—On the eve of the receipt of Genera] Carranza's new not*', which officials believe will renew the demand for withdrawal of American troops from Mexico, and with another conference between American and Mexican military commanders about to begin, a protest was received at the White House reporting serious difficulties between American oil operators at Tampico and th* Mexican authori ties. The protest came in the form of a telegram addressed to rPesident Wilson by 84 American citizens residing at Tampico, who had held a mass meeting and determined to lay their case before the government. They declared the Mexican military officials wTere promulgating decrees designed to makt it impossible for Americans to do business in the country and told horn one of their number had been arrested and imprisoned for three hours because he refused to pay his employes wages fixed by the authorities in excess of terms previously Agreed upon with the men. The signers of the message asserted their right to protection from the American government, and announced their determination not to comply with the arbitrary and confiscatory orders and decrees by the Mexicans. White House officials sent the protest to the state department for investigation. Other complaints already have been received regarding recent 1 decrees by the Carranza government and it is probable there will be representations on the subject as soon as the controversy over the presence of American troops in Mexico Is adjusted. "It has become practically lmpos-, •ible for an American to do business of any nature in this section of the country," the Tampico message said, "because of restrictions placed by the authorities that we believe to be directed primarily against American citicens.

"Today's the day! In the hustle I had forgotten it, and I'll hot old David has— if he hasn't simply ignored it. That accounts for the reunion at the Metropole !" "Don't worry," said Harlan easily. "The bank has gone, vanished, shut up shop. At the end of the ends, I suppose, they can make David pay; but they can't very well cinch him for not meeting his notes on the dot." "Massingale doesn't really owe them anything that he can't pay," Brouillard asserted. "By firing and writing and digging up figures, we found that the capitalizing stockholders, otherwise J. Wesley Cortwrlght, and possibly Schennerhorn, have actually invested fifty-two thousand dollars, or, rather, that amount of Massingale's loan has been expended in equipment and pay rolls. Three weeks ago the old man got the smelter superintendent over here from Red Butte and arranged for an advance of fifty-two thousand dollars on the ore In stock, the money to be paid when the first train of ore cars should be on the way in. It was paid promptly In New York exchange, and Massingale Indorsed the draft over to me to be used in the directors' meeting, which was never held." "Go over and flash Massingale's fiftytwo thousand dollars at 'em. They'll turn loose. I'll bet a yellow cur worth fifteen cents that they're wishing there was a train out of this little section of Sheol right now. Hear that!" The crash of an explosion rattled the windows, and the red loom on the Jack's mountain side of the town leaped up and became a momentary glare. The fell spirit of destruction, of objectless wreck and ruin, was abroad, and Brouillard turned to the stairway door. "I'll have to be making the rounds again," he said. "The Greeks and Italians are too excitable to stand much of this. Take care of yourself; I'll leave Grif and a dozen of the trusties to look after the shop." BBS CHAPTER XXIV §{§ The Terror When Brouillard reached the sidewalk the upper avenue was practically deserted. But in the eastern residence district, and weir around to the north, new storm-centers were marked by the increasing number of fires. Brouillard stopped and faced toward the distant and invisible Timanyonls. A chill autumn breeze was sweeping down from the heights and the blockading wall of the great dam turned It Into eddies and dust-pillared whirls'dancing In the empty street. Young Griffith sauntered up with his Winchester In the hollow of his arm. "Anything new?'* he asked, "No," Baid Brouillard. "I was Just thinking that a little wind would go a long way tonight, with these crazy house-burners loose on the town." Then he turned and walked rapidly to the government headquarters, passed the sentry at the door of the mapping room; and out of the fireproof vault where the drawings and blue-print duplicates were kept took a small tin dispatch box. He had opened the box and had transferred a slip of paper from It to the leather-covered pocket field book which served him for a wallet, when there was a stir at the door and Castner hurried in, looking leas the clergyman than the hard-working peace of* fleer. "More bedlam," he announced. "I want Gassman or Handler and twenty or thirty good men. The-mob has gone from wrecking and burning to murder' ing. Tegleg* John was beaten to death in front of his saloon a few minutes ago. It Is working this way. There were three fires in the p l a n as I came through." "See Grtslow at the commissary and tell him I sent you," said the chief. "I'd go with you. but I'm due at the Metropole." "Good. Then Miss Amy got word to you? I was just about to deliver her message." - "Miss Massingale? Where is she, and what was the message V demand* ed Brouillard. T h e n you haven't heard T The t i t - tle Susan' is in the hands of a sheriffs posse, and David Massingale is under arrest on some trumped-up charge selling ore for his individual account, or something of that sort MUs Amy didnt go Into particulars, hot she told mm that she had heard the short* toy It was a psaftitHry "But where is she now?" stormed Brouillard. "Over at the hotel. 1 supposed you knew; you said you were going there." Brouillard snatched up the dispatch box and flung it into the fireproof. While he was locking the door Castner went in search of Grislow, and when Brouillard faced about, another man stood In the missionary's place by the mapping table. It was Mr. J. Wesley CortwrighL "I didn't think I'd have to ask a favor of you again, Brouillard, but needs must when the devil drives," he began, with an attempted assumption of his former manner. "We didn't know —the newspapers didn't tell us anything about this frightful state of affairs, and—" Brouillard had suddenly lost his desire to hurry. "Sit down, Mr. Cortwrlght," he said. "I was just coming over to see you— to congratulate you and Mr. Schennerhorn on your return to Mirapolls. We have certainly missed the mayor, not to mention the president of the common council." "Of course—yes," was the hurried rejoinder. "But that's all over. You said you'd get us, and you did. I don't bear malice. If you had given me one more day I'd have got you; the stuff that would have broken your neck with the Washington people was all written and ready to put on the wires. But that's past and gone, and the next thing is something else. There Is a lot of money and securities locked up in the Niquoia bank vault. We've come to clean up, and we brought a few peace officers along from Red Butte for a guard. The miserable scoundrels are scared stiff; they won't stir out of the hotel. Bongras tells me you've got your forc« organized and armed—can't you lend us fifty or a hundred huskies to keep the mob off while we open that bank vault?" Brouillard's black eyes snapped, and the blood danced In his veins. The opportunity for which he would have bartered Ormuz' treasure had come to him—was begging him to use it. "I certainly can," he admitted, answering the eager question and emphasizing the potentiality. "But will you? that's the point Well make it worth your while. For God's sake, don't say no, Brouillard! There's pretty well up to a million in that vault, counting odds and ends and left-overs. Schennerhorn oughtn't to have left it. I thought he had sense enough to stay and see It taken care of. But now—" "But now the mob is very likely to wreck the building and dynamite the vault, you were going to say. I think it is more than likely, Mr. Cortwrlght, and I wonder that it hasn't been done before this. It would have been done tf the rioters had had any Idea that you'd left anything worth taking. And It would probably wreck you and Mr. Schennerhorn If It should get hold of you; you've both been burned In effigy half a dozen times since you ran away." "Oh, good Lord!" shuddered the magnate. "Make It two hundred of your men, and let's hurry. You won't turn us down on this, Brouillard?" "No. It is no part of our duty to go and keep the mob off while you save your stealings, but well do it And from the noise they are making down that way, I think you are wise in suggesting haste. But first there is a question of common justice to be settled. An hour ago, or such a matter, you Bent a part of your sheriff's posse up to seize the Tittle Susan' and to arrest David Massingale—" "IVs—it's a lie!" stammered Cortwrlght "Somebody has been trying to backcap me to you!" Brouillard looked up, frowning. "You are a good bit older man than I am, Mr. Cortwrlght, and I sha'n't punch your head. But you'll know why l ought to when I tell you that my informant is Miss Amy Massingale. What have you done with old David V The man who had lost his knack of bluffing came down and stayed down. "He's—he's over at the hoteL" he •stammered. •TJnder guard r -Well—y-yes." Brouillard pointed to the telephone on the wall. "Go and call up your crowd and get it here. Tell Judge Williams to bring the stock he Is holding, and Schermerhorn to bring the Massingale notes, and your man Jackson to bring the stock-book. Well have a directors' meeting that was called, and wasn't held, three It was a crude little expedient, bat It ssmeed. Cortwrlght tramped to the 'phone and carted and swore at ft is> til he had hm man at the other «ad of the wire. The man was the lawyer, aa it appeared, and Cortwrlght abused him spitefully. "You've balled it—balled It beautifully!'' he shouted. "Come over here to Brouillard's office and bring Shermerhorn and the stock and the notes and Jackson and the secretary's books and Massingale and your Infernal self! Get a move, and get It Quick! We stand to lose the whole loaf because you had to butt In and sweep up the crumbs first!" When the procession arrived, aa It did In an Incredibly short time, Brouillard laid down the law. "We don't need these," he said curtly, indicating the two deputies who came to bring David Massingale. And when they were gone; "Now, gentlemen, get to work and do business, and the less time you waste the better chance there will be for your bank salvage. Three requirements I make: you will turn over the stock, putting Mr. MaBsingale in possession of his mine, without incumbrance; you will cancel and surrender his notes to the bank; and you will give him a document, signed by all of you. acknowledging the payment in full of all claims, past or pending. While you are straightening things out. I'll ring up the yards and rally your guard." Cortwrlght turned on the lawyer. "You hear what Brouillard says; fix it, and do it suddenly." It was done almost before Brouillard had made Leshtngton, in charge of the yards, understand what was wanted. "Now a note to your man at the mine to make him let go without putting us to the trouble of throwing him over the dump," said the engineer, when he had looked over the stock transfers, examined the canceled notes, and read and witnessed the signatures on the receipt in fulL Cortwrlght nodded to the lawyer, and when Williams began to write again the king of the promoters turned upon Brouillard with a savage sneer. "Once more you've had your price." he snarled bitterly. "You and the old man have bilked us out of what we spent on the mine. But we'll call it an even break If you'll hurry that gang of huskies." "We'll call it an even break when it Is one." retorted Brouillard; and after he had gathered up the papers he took the New York check from his pocketbook, indorsed it, and handed it to Cortwrlght. "That is what was spent out of the hundred thousand dollars you had Mr. Massingale charged with, as nearly as we can ascertain. Take it and take care of It; it's real money." He had turned again to the telephone to hurry Leshington, had rung the call, and was chuckling grimly over the collapse of the four men at the end of the mapping table as they fingered the slip of money paper. Suddenly It was borne In upon him that there was trouble of some sort at the door—there were curses, a blow, a mad rush; then . . . It was Stephen Massingale who had fought his way past the door-guarding sentry and stood blinking at the group at the far end of the mapping board. "You're the noun' dog I'm lookin' for!" he raged, singling out Cortwrlght when the dazzle of the electrics permitted him to see. "You'll rob an old man first, and then call him a thief and set the sheriff on him, will you—?" Massingale's pistol was dropping to the firing level when Brouillard flung away the telephone earpiece and got between. Afterward there was a crash like a collision of worlds, a whirling, dancing medley of colored lights fading away to gray and then to darkness, and the engineer went down with the avenger of wrongs tightly locked In his arms. After the period of darkness had passed and Broufllard opened his eyes again upon the world of things as they are, he had a confused Idea that he had overslept shamefully and that the Indulgence had given him a bad headache. The next thought was that the headache was responsible for a set of singular hallucinations. His blanket bunk In the sleeping shack seemed to have transformed Itself Into a white bed with pillows and snowy sheets, and the bed was drawn up beside an open window through which he could look out, or seem to look out upon a vast sea dimpling in the breeze and reflecting the sunshine so brightly that it made his headache a darting agony. When he turned his face to escape the blinding glare of the sun on the sea the hallucinations became soothingly comforting, not to say ecstatic Someone was sitting on the edge of the bed; a cool band was laid on his forehead; and when he could again see straight he found himself looking up into a pair of violet eyes In which the tears were trembling. "You are Amy-^and this is that other world you used to talk about isn't it?" he asked feebly. The cool hand slipped from his forebead to his lips, as if to warn him that he must not talk, and he went through the motions of kissing It Whan it was withdrawn he broke the silent prohibition promptly. T h e way to keep me from talking is to do It all yomrself; what happened to mo last night r She shook her head aorrowrully. "The 'last night' you mean was thrtx weeks ago. Stevle was trying to shoot Mr. Cortwrlght in your office and you got between them. Do you remember t h a t ? " •'Perfectly." he dald "L3ut it still seema as if tt were only last night. Where am I now?—not that It makes any difference, so long as I'm with you." "You are at home—our home; at the 'Little Susan,' Mr. Leshington had the men carry you up here, and Mr. Ford ran a special train all the way from Denver with the doctors, j Stevie's bullet struck you in the head, and —and we all thought you were go- j Ing to die." i "I'm not." he asserted, in feebly desperate determination. "I'm going to live and get to work and earn a bun- I dred thousand dollars, so I can say, * Come, little girl—' " Again the restraining hand was laid upon his lips, and again he went through the motions of kissing it. | "You mustn't talk!" she insisted.' "You said you'd let me." And when j he made the sign of acquiescence, she > went on: "At first the doctors wouldn't give us any hope at all; they said you might live, but you'd—you'd never— never remember—never have your reason again. But yesterday—" "Please!" he pleaded. "That's more than enough about me. I want to know what happened." "That night, you mean? All the things that you had planned for. Father got the mine back, and Mr. Leshington and the others got the riot quelled after about half of the city was burned." "But Cortwrlght and Schennerhorn— I promised them—" "Mr. Leshington carried out your promise and helped them get the money out of the bank vault before the mob sacked the Niquoia building and dynamited it. But at the hotel they were arrested on the order of the bank examiner, and everything was taken away from them. We haven't heard yet what is going to be done with them." "And Gomorrah?" he asked. She slipped an arm under his Bhoulders and raised him so he could look out upon the mountain-girt sea dimpling under the morning breeze. "There is where it was," she said soberly, "where it was, and is n o t and never will be again, thank God! Mr Leshington waited until everybody had escaped, and then he shut the wasteway gates." Brouillard sank back upon the pillows of comfort and closed his eyes. "Then it's all up to me and the hundred thousand," he whispered. "And 111 get it . . . honestly this time." The violet eyes were smiling wheD he looked Into them again. "Is she—the one incomparable s h e - worth it, Victor?" "Her price is above rubles, as 1 told you once a long time ago." "You wouldn't let pride—a false pride—stand in the way of her happiness?" "I haven't any; her love has made me very humble and—and good, Amy, dear. Don't laugh: it's the only word; I'm Just hungering and thirsting after righteousness enough to be half-way worthy of her." "Then I'll tell you something else that has happened. Father and Stevie have reorganized the 'Little Susan' Mining company, dividing the stock into four equal parts—one for each of us. You must take your share, Victor It will break father's heart if you don't, He says you got it back for him after it was hopelessly lost, and that 1B true." "Kiss me, Amy, girl, and then go and tell your father that he Is a simplehearted old spendthrift, and I love him. And if you could wire Castner, and tell him to bring a license along—" "Oh boy—foolish boy!" she said. "Wait; when you are well and strong again. . . •" But she did not make him wait for the first of the askings; and after a healing silence had fallen to show the Heedlessness of speech between those who have come through darkness into light he fell asleep again, perhaps to dream that the quieting hand upon his forehead was the touch of Love, angel of the bright and shining way, summoning him to rise up and go forward as a soul set free to meet the dawning day of fruition. THE END. Velocity of Wind. In meteorological terms a strong wind Is anything from 24 to 37 miles an hour; a gale from 38 to 55 miles, and a storm from 56 to 75 miles. Beyond that It may be described aa a hurricane. In the convulsion which destroyed^gerTay bridge in December, 1S79, the anemometer registered gusts of wind which exceeded 100 miles an hour. The connection between the velocity and the pressure of the wind is not yet known with absolute certainty, but roughly speaking (wind of 40 miles) produces a pressure of eight pounds to the square foot and 61 miles a pressure of 13 pounds. The British Association Committee on Wind Pressure has recorded cases of eight to ninety pounds to the square foot--London CnronJole. Accompanying Industries Also Prove Highly Profitable. The cheese Industry throughout western Canada today is in a nlghly nourishing condition and la bound In a very short time to become much more important. The war has created a great demand for that article, and its use abroad has given it a lot of useful advertising. The article known aa Canadian cheese is now sought not only by the soldier in the trenches, but by the ordinary civilian consumer, •vho, having used it, is quick to appreciate its value. Tins means that after the war there will be a demand created for it that would not otherwise have been. Up to the present the war needs have limited the local supply, but with the increased effort that is now being put forth it is hoped that this will be met. As a matter of course the prices are high, and the farmers who contribute to the cheese factories are making money. The cheese season is now fully open and there is every prospect of an excellent year because the high price which obtained last year will undoubtedly be maintained this season. Western Canada has all the natural resources for the making of cheese, the feed and the cool nights, two things essential, and in time it is bound to become one of the finest cheese countries of the continent. The lower foothills of Alberta, used only at the present time as ranges or for»no purpose, will in time produce cheese in great quantities, and doubtless will soon equal the famous uplands of Denmark. The cool nights mean the better keeping of milk and cream and cheese, and that Is a great thing for the industry, especially when combined with possibilities of cattle feed Buch aa nxist on the long slopes from the Rockies eastward. The hog market, which may be classed as an adjunct of farming, is an exceedingly good one, and the low cost at which the feed can be produced, coupled with the high prices realized, make this industry very profitable. One of the first thoughts that occur to the mind of the average prospective pettier is the likelihood of suitable markets. In this connection the following table will be illuminating. It is supplied by the P. Burns company, packers and exporters, of Calgary, and shows the average monthly price paid for hogs for the six years 1910 to 1915 inclusive. When one considers the low initial cost of the land and the small overhead cost of maintenance and feed, these prices challenge comparison. 1910 1911 1912 1913 1914 1915 7¾ 8 8 7¾ 7¾ 8½ 8½ 8 7¾ 8 8½ 7½ sy4 8¾ 71¾ 9 8¼ 7 8½ 8 7¼ 8½ 8 January. .

With such prices available for hogs the fanner has a market for everything his farm produces, as there is practically no farm product which cannot be converted Into good hog flesh. The uncertainty of results which attends grain fanning even under most favorable conditions is removed when the settler goes in for raising hogs, beef and dairy products. With Western Canada's cheap lands, heavy crops, and climate free from diseases of stock, the stock farmer is as sure of success as anyone can be.—Advertisement. No Lack of Rations.

[Oxford Leader of May ."Ah, I01C Oakland County Republicans at t h e coming August primaries will likely look with much favor upon the gubernational candidacy of Frank B. Leland, of Detroit. The fact that he is a native of this county will command the attention of Oakland county Republicans who are invariably loyal to the "home fulks". Leland waa born on a farm in Rose township, this county; in fact for a number of years has owned and operated the farm on which his boyhood was *pent, so it is but natural that Oakland county should have more than a passing interest in his candidacy. We have been Elmer E. Collins of Detroit, Dies Sergeant Elmer E. Collins, of the police department, died in his home, 500 Brainard street, Sunday noon. Sergeant Collins became ill while on duty in the fourth precinct station last Thursday. His condition was not regarded as serious. Sunday morning he announced he intended to return to work Monday. At noon he collapsed and died within a few minutes. He was born in Dexter, Mich., 50 Close Game at South Lyons The H.

Swarthout then went into he box and finished the game. R. Harris brought his batting average up to 1O0 per cent by getting three hits and a walk during the game, many of his hits being good for two bases or more, if it had not been for the ground rules allowing only one base on balls bated into a grove of trees near the diamond. This makes a game apiece for the boys and a date will try and be arranged to pley the rubber. The Alumni H.

Eight years a regent of the U. of M., handling the expenditures cf millions of dollars, shows the capacity of the man as well as indicating that he has had exceptional opportunities for studying the business methods uf the state and its institutions. He comes not before the public forum as an untried neophtyte but as a successful business man of practical experience. From the standpoint of political exjidiency, the party which wishes to •gain control the reins of state government must consider Leland. He comee in the unique character of a. man on whom all Wayne county republicans can combine and with the endorsement of all the press of the metropolis—a condition we cannot recall as ever occurmg in the past. For in harmonizing Wayne, he has accomplished what has been long thought an impossibility. Nor does his support seem t o be dependent on the heavy vote of t h e metropolis, although that is bound to be a great factor in his favor at the primaries.

I've never known a dog to wag His tail in glee he didn't feel, Nor quit hid old-time friend to tag At some more influential heel, The yellowest cur I ever knew Was, to the boy who loved him true. I've never known a dog to show Half-way devotion to his friend, To seek a kinder man to know. Or richer, but unto the end The humblest dog I ever knew Was to the man that loved him. true. I've never known a dog to fake Affection for a present gain, A false display of love to make Some little favor to attain. I've never known a Prince or Spot That seemed to be what he was not. But 1 have known a dog to fight With ail hia strength to shield his friend, And whether wrong, or whether right To stick with him unto the end. And I have known a dog to lick The hand of him that men would kick. And I have known a dog to bear Starvations pangs from day to day With him who had been glad to share His bread and meat along the way. No dog, however mean or rude, Is guilty of ingratitude.

Already the cherry bloasoma were •ending down their white bhower of petalo\ In the opposite corner of the barn door sat the chairman of the selectmen of the village. He had Just paid Reuben what the farmer considered a wonderful compliment. "Of course," said Reuben, "I expect to be preaent at the exercises that day. 'Tain t often thia town has a centennial, and 1 ain't likely to see another" smiling whimsically. "When 1 heei d the Guv-nor was comin' I waa more n anxious to go, 'cause he's got a narie like an old friend of mine—nicest b»-»y you ever see—shot way ba»:k in '64 in a skirmish—tsame night I got this fcole in my leg.

We wan" plain facta, and you'll give us thote. '3ood morning." Long after Mr. Whitney's tor buggy had disappeared over the crest ct the hill, Reuben sat in the barn door and mused. In imagination he v as back t:nied their backs on the village- for vi'Hr horizons years before. ft waa all blurred confusion to Re'itien aa he waa ushered on t i e platfnr i'< and saw the sea of faces before hin\ He could not distinguish an acquittance, and decided that his eyesUbl was growing poor.

How ga? they were, or pretended to be! Thf maple trees had spread a flaunting carpet of scarlet and gold for their feft. The leaves rustled merrily as t\ey marched, heads up, faces front. The girls waved and cheered, but t i e mothers knew and hid their faces ;ie could see his mother's white fa :e now. We smiled, as he recalled Sariar/lha's face that morning, round and rciy, with a wealth of curls en eitr er side, and blue eyes meeting his eyfts nhyly. She had pressed a small pdekage in his hand when he went to sty good-by the evening before. He wa /ed his thanks as he passed her in th* "crowd. Dear little daguerreotype! *ie had it still, faded but beautiful to him. He must go and tell her abou* Mr. Whitney's compliment. She would be glad to know. Samantha wfcs always glad when honors came to him. Aa he reached the kitchen door, Samantha came down :he steps to help him. Putting her hf nd under his arm she said: "Why. father, I d dn't know but Td have to come and set you. Thought you'd fallen asleep." "I was dreamin'. ma, but 1 wasn't Asleep. I was war back in war time. Al Whitney was b ^re this raornin' to camj Then Mr. Whitney turned and intr^fuced "our honored citizen and solo remaining veteran of the Civil war, Mr. Reuben Henshaw." As he stool up, tottering a little on his wouf'dvl leg, there was a surprised mumilr at the rear of the tent among a group of strangers. Re^bor. fumbled for his manuscript, gripi ed it tight, and sought out the face that had never failed him. Then he bf'gar. his speech. "Fellow-citizens, neigl bors, friends," he began, "your chaifmar selected me to talk to you aboui» sone of the bravest men this town ever had. I've got it all writ down hert\ but my specs ain't workin' right, and I don't believe I can read it. Guesf I'll Jest have to tell it to you after all. I'm wearin' gray today stead o' blue.

'A Tribute to Our I'oys of '61.' he said I was to call it. Rut I ain't goin' to put no such high-flytn' title as that on P.. If they want an account of how (ur boys fit and sufferer! and died. I can give it." "That's so, faf.bsr; no one can do it better. But won'l you be afraid talkin' to the Guv'nor afd so many folks?" Reuben laughed softly. "Now, mother! the Guvior ain't a day older than our little Tom would have been. And just like 's not Tom would have been Guv'nor If he had have lived. Xo. I ain't a mite scared." Joe, the hired I tan, had double work for several days after Mr. Whitney's visit; for Reuben spent many hours at the old desk In tl-e sitting-room, writing his manuscript laboriously. At last the grea' day da-wned, bright and clear. Preparations had been going on for several days in the village. The hotel and post office were gorgeous in flags and bunting. Flags floated from many house windows. At one end of the eemmon a huge tent had been erected, nnd there the speakers would face the assemblage. An organ had been placed in front of the rostrum, and a choir of village boya and girls drilled for the occasion. The band from tipper Hallam had rolunhotel waa placed a dlnlng-tent to accommodate the overflow. The Tillage was astir early, and long before ten o'clock, the hoar set for the exercise* to begin, the chnrch sheds were filled with horses, carriage*, express wagons and farm wagcnsT while a long line of nondescript vehicles, with often indifferent locomotive power, lined the fences. Purveyors of badges and postal cards wandered up and down and the toy balloon man arrived early. The entire township had poured its full measure of enthusiasm into the village: and in the home gatherings were brought together for the first time sons and daughters who bad stories giving kindly tribute to his comrarions of campflre and battlefield, telling of lonely pickets and forced marches, dwelling upon acts of bravery and fearless iess, till his hearers thrilled with the lecital and many eyes were w >t. At latt the chairman was obliged to touch 1 im on the shoulder and tell him his time was up; and he sank inlo his seat amid a thunder of applause. There was one more speaker before the gove-nor should make the final address. Keuben, his mind freer now, studied the young governor's face as he sat bending slightly forward to catch the speaker's words. "Strange," thought the old man, "how much he looks like Tom Duffleld, my old tentmate and chum. Tom was shot way back in '64, long before this boy waB born. But he is strangely like; the same alert, eager face, the look Tom always had before a battle. Poor Tom! how tired he waa that night we camped below Hazel Run. Tom was almost sick that night, anyway. I was a lot stronger, and glad to take his place on the picket line. 'Twas pretty hard to keep awake, though. I couldn't help it—if my feet—did stumble—my— head—felt—as—though—" A sudden Jerk. "Why. I thought I was a boy on teered their services. In front of the picket duty again; I must have dozed." And Reuben looked about In wonder till his eyes found Samantha's face again and rested there. Now the governor was on his feet. He was speaking. What was he saying? Reuben leaned forward, his old hands with their knotted veins clutching his knees, his blue eyes filled with wonder. "Friends," the governor was saying, "before I begin the speech I am here to make. I want to pay a tribute to one of your volunteers whom your speaker has overlooked. I have a father—he is here today—who was also a volunteer in '6t. In Washington he met a boy from his own state. They became chums and tentmates. They were together In many a hard-fought battle. Many a night they lay in the treflches or marched weary miles in each other's company. One night—my father tells the story with loving remembrance— your soldier boy did picket duty. It waa cold and wet. Next day the march was a hard one, through the mud of a country road. My father was not welL When after plodding wearily for many miles a halt was called, :md camp made, he waa assigned to picket duty. He was very tired, too tired to keep awake, and so your boy volunteered to serve in his stead. Your boy had served the night before. He had marched as far as my father, but he accepted the duty to spare his friond. Can you not see him as he trudges painfully back and forth on his post?" "There was another night" — the governor's voice was quiet now and all was very still—"a small detachment of the Fifth was surprised by the enemy. In the skirmish that followed, my father was shot." Reuben's mouth had fallen open. "I kno't; wasn't I there to see? But he was killed," he murmured. "His chum." continued the governor, seeing his comrade fall, dashed in amid a rain of bullets thick as hair, and dragged the senseless body to a place of safety, then disappeared." "Grays ketched me," muttered Reuben. "When my father recovered consciousness he was in a field hospital of the Christian Commission. There he learned of his frieild's part in that night attack. Search was made; but all effort to find that friend proved unavailing, and he was given up for dead. When my father recovered, minus his right arm, he received an honorable discharge, and returned home. Later he left his home and went to Vermont. I learned today that his old comrade is still alive. I have listened with interest to the glowing tribute your speaker has paid to the volunteers of this village. But he has been . too modest. Some of the bravest deeds he has left unrecorded. So 1 take pleasure in giving my inadequate testimony to the bravery and kindness of your neighbor and my father's comrade, Reuben Henshaw." There was not a sound to be heard as the governor turned and clasped Reuben's hands in both his own. The old man's eyes ware full of tears, and his voice trembling as he asked eagerly, "Is Tom alive? is Tom alive?" "Yes." returned the gbvernor, "not only alive, but hero. He came with me today because it was to your town I was coming." The crowd had been quiet long enough and now broke into tumultuous applause. Down through the aisle another old man was coming, gray. bent, his right sleeve hanging empty. Making his way through the curious applauding throng he reached the platform, while the governor, still holding Reuben's hand, stepped forward to meet him. One look into each other's eyes, and the two old comrades clasped hands with a cry of "Reuben!" 'Tom!" Then their trembling voices failed and their eyes overflowed. Samantha laid a timid hand on that of her neighbor. 'Tm afraid father can't Jtand it," she said anxiously. "I must go and get him.'' Shouldering her way to the platform, ahe caught Reuben's coat. "Come, father," she said. "You and Mr. Duffleld come outside with me. Vm 'fraid yon can't stand it." And so, led by Samantha, thvy passed out into the sunlight.

Of Late Years Weed Has Been Increasingly Troublesome In Grain Growing Sections—Renders Soil Unfit f o r F a r m i n g . In the states north of the Ohio river, probably no plant bears such a bad reputation au the so-called Canada thistle. This marvelously prickly plant abounds In grain fields, pastures, and meadows throughout the central west, and is common in the northeastern states. It Is found in parts of West Virginia, Kentucky, and Missouri, and of late years has been Increasingly troublesome in the graingrowing sections of the Northwest Canada thistle, or simply "thistle," has been condemned in the laws oi 25 states, and at least 100 local communities. Certainly no plant is more generally and heartily disliked, unless It be the sand bur of the southern coastal plain. The unpopularity of Canada thistle is due largely to its unsightly appearance and exceedingly spiny leaves, and to its persistent resistance to attempts at eradication. Under ordinary cropping systems and with reasonable care, the thistle is at worst a disagreeable nuisance. Generally speaking, it does not injure the quality or quantity of farm products, excepting hay, as much as do Quackgrass, wild on^on, or wild mustard; nor is it as destructive to the grass in pastures and meadows as are a number of almost insignificant little weeds whose very existence is often unsuspected. When left to Itself, however, the thistle spreads rapidly, until in a few years It will more or leas completely occupy the land, rendering *^3 ' ^^stf Wm 5» f ffUL.

The soil upon which Canada thistles flourish is apt to be of good natural fertility, and it usually pays to reclaim thistle- Infested fields. The cause of the remarkable vitality of Canada thistle and the point that distinguishes it from other prickly plants that are commonly mistaken for it, is the long, cordlike, perennial root. This root penetrates the soil at a depth of eight to fifteen inches, or more, and gives rise at frequent Intervals to leafy shoots. Thus tt will often be found that an entire patch of thistles is attached to one root, and Is in reality but one plant The root Is exceedingly hardy, and can live over winter or through a prolonged drought In a dormant condition. Pieces that are broken off by a plow or cultivator and carried tr other places will await a warm, nfoist period, and then begin to send out leafy shoots, thus establishing a hew patch. r~ The point that must be kept In mind, however, in fighting Canada FIELD MICE ARE INJURIOUS Rodents Are Tenacious of Life and Multiply With Great R a p i d i t y - There Are Many Species.

These m i c e ' a r e tenacious of Ufa. and multiply with great rapidity. They cannot live without eating and they take their choice of such food aa may be at hand. If nothing better can be found the mice feed anon the bark of trees or upon the roots of grasses and shrubs, destroying grass, cutting down grain, clover, and alfalfa, eating the gram ta shocks or graasv t i e s , injuring flowers and vegetables, and doing harm in hundreds of ways. l a oae part of Nevada the mteo totally ruined 8 M M acres of alfalfa. tal»r thistles is that It Is the roots, rathei than the tops, thai uiubt bts killed Simply cutting off the topa a f t * times has much the same effect as pruning an apple tree. But if the tops are cut off deep and frequently, the root must eventually suffocate through lack of leaves. Bearing this In cutnd, any of the following meth ods of eradication will be found ef fectlve: 1. Summer Fallow.—Most suitable for one-half acre or more of thorough ly infested land, from which little rev enue could be expected anyway. Plow deep In the fall, exposing the roots to the frost. Harrow In the spring to kill seedlings of annual weeds. Let the thistle grow until the first blossoms appear (about June 1) or untH there Is danger of other weeds going to seed. Plow shallow and from theD until frost use disk harrow often enough to prevent thistle leaves from making over four inches of growth If the thistles get over six inches high at any time, all the previous work will be undone. This applies to all methods. Follow during the second year with a cultivated crop, giving it a lit tie extra cultivation and hoeing out Individual thistles. 2. Partial Fallow.—(1) For grain fields or old meadows. Cut the crop early for hay, if necessary, to prevent thistles from seeding. Allow thistles to grow for four to six days, then plow, and proceed as in 1 for remainder of season. (2) For cultivated ground—Allow thistles to grow until first blossoms appear. Plow shallow. When thistles are about three Inches high disk thoroughly and plant late smother crops. 3. Smother Crops.—Combination of above. A good method on rich ground. Cut grass early for hay as In 2 (1) above. Plow shallow four to six days later. I^eave for four to six days more and disk thoroughly. Then sow smother crop of buckwheat (four-fifths peck), rape (broadcast six-eighths pound), millet (three-fourths peck), or fodder corn ia check rows. After the crop is off, keep thistles down by disking until frost. Hemp and alfalfa are excellent smother crops In sections where they are grown. Alfalfa may be either spring or fall sown, according to custom, but the surface of the ground must be clean and well prepared before planting. 4. Cultivated Crops,—Most generally useful method. Corn In check rows best crop. Have ground clean before planting. Equip cultivator with nine-inch sweeps instead of ordinary shoes. Keep sweeps sharp and cultivate frequently. Hoe the corn after laying by, and cultivate the ground after harvest with a disk harrow until frost. Repeat second year. 5. Hoeing and Cutting,—Best for small patches. Stake out the patch and visit regularly with a sharp hoe or scythe at least twice a week. 6. Chemicals.—There is no chemical that in reasonable quantities will kill Canada thistles with one application, unless applied directly to the cut root. For spraying, use sodium arsenite (a violent poison), two pounds in ten gallons of water; common salt, one pound in one and a half quarts of water; or crude carbolic acid, diluted one-half. If animals are salted on a small patch of thistles, they will finally disappear. Frequent spraying of the thistle with the above chemicals may be used Instead of cutting in rocky or other Inconvenient places. 7. Miscellaneous.—Sheep will sometimes graze thistles to death if forced to do so. Small patches of thistles may be smothered by covering with overlapping strips of tar paper or building paper, weighting the laps down with earth and leaving the paper on for eight to ten weeks during the summer. A coating of straw or manure one foot or more in depth will answer the same purpose.

Drainage improves the physical eon dittos of the eofl by making K aadfrtaaie. by the East L a n s i n g F a r m business la a characteristic product of the new agriculture. Time waa when self-subsistence waa the beginning and the end of farming, but the railroad, interurban and telephone have changed all this and the market must now be listened to by the farmer in the same way as by the manufacturer and the merchant. Within the limit* fixed by environment the market determines his crop routine, his type of farming, his relations to the middleman and finally the balance of profit or loss which greets him at the end of the season. This change waa brought about in farm business as a distinct side of agriculture. Marketing is perhaps the leading aspect of this new phase of agriculture and the big place that marketing has in the farmer's outlook is doubtless caused by the fact that so much of the high prices which the consumer pays for farm products disappears before it reaches the farmer. Perhaps this is the fault of the middleman or it may be that the farmer himself is not a good marketer, but at any rate this is one of the problems with which farm business is concerned. The profitable selling of "two blades of grass" where only one was sold before has become the big problem in farming and all departments of agricultural study at the State Agricultural College, Lansing, are gi\ ing interest and effort to this matter. Inseparable from good farm management goes the scoring of results known as farm accounting. Where the profit or loss comes from upon the farm, and when and why, is the aspect of farm business of which accounting takes charge. The intensive style of farming which the city man seems to cherish as the ideal type shows up badly when brought to the balances and inventories of the accountant and it is demonstrated that many of the farmer's "blue ribbon" products are his biggest failures. The higher prices for his products is not the only way in which this most wide spread epidemic has affected the farmer. He is a buyer aj well as seller and the doubling in the value of land and horses and other farm necessities in recent years has done much to cripple his gains. Farm business teaches that the farmer must have better means of credit than he has previously enjoyed and the "Hollia Rural Credit" bill now pending in Congress Is proof of the farmer's need along this line. Credit facilities specialized to his peculiar needs in the same way that railroads and manufacturers have trust companies and merchants have banks will prove a long needed boon to the farmer. The college has shown a warm interest in supporting this phase of the farmer's business through numerous conferenoas during the past few years of prominent farmers and bankers to discuss this matter. The "get together" movement or cooperation has not been overlooked by the college teachers. Business cooperation has indeed always received the approval of the college faculty since one of the oldest co-operative merchantlle associations within the state has been maintained upon the campus for almost two decades. In recent years the possibilities of using this co-operative principle among farmers has been Btrongly endorsed. Tt was at the Michigan Agricultural college that one of the oldest types of farm co-operative undertakings—the cattle breeding associations—had their beginning and more recently the study of all varieties of co-operative work among farmers—selling exchanges, creameries, elevators and credit POcleties— has been gone into for constructive purposes. It is not the belief of the college that it should actively promote the forming of co-operative concerns—the movement in this direction needs no stimulus—but it can be of service In counseling with new or prospective associations as to their prospects of success, style of organization, by-laws, and other technical details. The disadvantages of the unorganized fanners in dealing with and otherwise, well-organised world has long since won the symatphy of thinkers for organisation. A marked forward step along all these lines Is planned by the college for the coining summer school from June 17th to August 1st at which specialists win preaeat the latest conclusions npon aD these s u b fecta.

Detroit- Colonel Theodore Roosevelt in Detroit Friday made a stir that will long be remembered. He Bpoke in the Detroit Opera House which was filled to capacity his subject being preparedness and what makes American citizenship a force for peace and industrial progress. The main points of his address were preparedness to avoid war and to win if war became necessary. And the Importance of becoming the second largest naval power of the world. He urged a standing army of 250,000 men, universal military service, etc. He spoke with all his former vigor and emphasized in points in the old Roosevelt way. This was the principal address and was followed later in the day by another made before the Brotherhood of Trainmen who were holding a convention, attended by thousands of delegates.

Denison, Tex.—Nine persons were killed and 38 Injured and Kemp City, Okla, eight miles east of Denlson was practically wiped off the map by a tornado which swept a path three-quarteru of a mile wide and five miles long In the Kemp City Section, Twelve business houses, a two-story hotel and 60 residences were demonllshed there. This is the second time in recent years that the little town of 300 inhabitants has been visited by a tornado. Merchants said the town probably would not be rebuilt. Eight were killed In the town, while the other victim, a child, was killed in the collapse of its father's home just acorss the Red river in Texas. Of the 38 persons injured, 36 are residents of Kemp City. Two daughters of Dr. McCullough were hurt at the time their younger sister was killed tn the McCullough home, five miles east of Denlson. Most of those injured were caught in the collapse of buildings while trying to reach storm cellars shortly after the storm began. The bodies of the dead in several instances were found hundreds of yards from where their houses had stood. The two-year-old child of Dr. and Mrs. Brinson who were killed, was hurled 500 feet with flying debris when the Brinson residence was destroyed but the child suffered only minor injuries. THREE STATES CALLED BUT NONE ANSWER Texas, Arizona and New Mexico National Guards Called on May 9 Washington—Reports to the war department from Major-General Funston indicate almost a complete fall down on the part of the National Guard or ganizatlons of Texas, Arizona and New Mexico in responding to the call of the president for service with the regular army along the border. Sum moned to the colors, May 0, not a eingle organisation from any of the three states has been mustered in. Not even the mobilization preparatory to the mustering of the militia into the federal service has been completed. An official report from San Antonio states that 116 enlisted men of the Texas National Guard have flatly re fused to respond to the call and although court-martial proceedings will be Instituted to punish them in accordance with the law, officials of the war department declare that beyond the infliction of punishment for failure to respond, there is no means of compelling the guardmen to serve. At the present rate at which mobilization is going on for these three states, army officers figure it would require between one and two months to mobilize any considerable number of National Guard organisations from various parts of the country.

In a statistical survey of the first six months of prohibition in Arizona, January 1 to July 1, 1915, Thomas K. Marshall shows the marked improvements In all phases of state life. Crime, in counties where aaloons existed during 1914, fell off 37.3 per cent when the saloons were closed. This insured a saving to taxpayers of $50,773.98 in decreased cost of arrests and prosecutions. Even more striking axe the figures for the cities and towns. With a total decrease of 2,403, or 60.1 per cent, in the number of arrests for the first six months of 1915 as compared with the same months of 1914, the saving amounts to $85,170.14. This almost offsets the entire amount of liquor license revenue, $100,998, which was surrendered by the cities of the state. The record of the city of Phoenix is perhaps the most remarkable of any. Over $5,000,000 increase in taxable wealth, decrease in tax rate and about $20,000 less in cost of city government for six months, is credited to the capital city of Arizona for the first half of 1914. The decrease in arrests for drunkenness for the first six months of 1915 perhaps surpasses that of any city of its size in the United States. The number of arrests for 1914 was 1,210 and for 1915 was 85. The per capita cost of arrests for 1914 was $6.53. With 1,125 fewer arrests for the Biz months of 1915 for this cause there was a decreased cost of $7,346.25 to the city. Savings hanks accounts In the state increased nearly $400,000 the first six months, and the deposits of all banks increased nearly $3,000,000 up to September, 1915. The children of the state are feeling the benefit of prohibition. There were for the first six months of 1915 2,000 more children in school than for the same period of 1914. The registration at the state university also shows an increase of 56 per cent over the registration for 1914.

A wet and dry map of Illinois is a revealing sort of document, sayB t h e Chicago Journal. It shows that the sale of liquor is forbidden in more than 80 per cent of the geographical area of the state. As indicating "how great has been the retreat of John Barleycorn," continues the Journal, "you can start at the Wisconsin boundary and drive in an absolutely straight line to the Ohio river without once entering wet territory. You can start from half a dozen different townships on the Indiana border and drive straight to the Mississippi river on dry territory, and only at two places in crossing the state from east to west do you need to make more than a Bmall detour to avoid wetness. With the prohibition Btate of Iowa on one side and dried-up Illinois towns and counties on the other, the Mississippi flows for hundreds of miles between banks of solid drought; for only at six points north of the Bast St. Louis oasis can the thirsty voyager get anything to drink but water. An nearly as the Journal can tell, t h e camel is marching forward all over the state.1' General Markets. Strawberries — Louisiana, $2.50® 2.75 per 24-quart case.

According to the report of t h e county auditor since January 1 the number of patients sent t o t h e hospital has been dwindling until at present there are just half as many patients as there were a year ago. Even before the state prohibitory law went into effect, the fact that Des Moines was without saloons tended to cut down t h e alcoholic patients.

But at the end there was an aggrieved look in his eyes, mirroring the poignant regret of a newsman who has found a priceless story which he dares not use. "It's ripping," he sighed, "the biggest piece of fireworks a poor devil of a newspaper man ever had a chance to touch off. But, of course, I can't print it." "Why 'of course'T" "For the samo reason that a sane man doesn't peek down the muzzle of a loaded gun when he Is monkeying irlth the trigger. I want to live a little -while longer." Brouillard looked relieved. , "I thought, perhaps, it was on account of your investments," he said, "Not at the present writing." amended Harlan with a grin. "I got a case of cold feet when we had that little let-up a while back, and when the market opened I cleaned up and sent the sureenough little round dollars home to Ohio." "And still you won't print this?" "I'd like to; you don't know how much I'd like to. But they'd hang me and sack the shop. I shouldn't blame 'em. If what you have said here ever «ets into cold type. It's good-by Mlrapolis. Why, Brouillard, the whole United States would rise up and tell us to get off the map. You've made us look like thirty cents trying to block the wheels of a million dollars—and that Is about the real size of it, I guess." "Then it Is your opinion that if this were printed it would do the business?" "There isn't the slightest doubt about It." "Thank you, Harlan, that is what T wanted to find out—if I had made tt strong enough. It'll be printed. lit put it on the wires to the Associated Press. I was merely giving you the first hack at it." ••Gee—gosh! hold on a minute!" exclaimed the newsman, jumping up and snapping his fingers. "If I weren't such a dod-gasted coward! Let me run In a few 'It is allegedV, and I'll chance it." "No; it goes as It lies. There are no allegations. It is merely a string of cold facts, as you very well know. Print it If you Ifke. and- I'll see to it that they don't hang you or loot the office. I have two hundred of the safest men on my force under arms tonight, and we'll take care of you. I'm in this thing for blood, Harlan, and when I get through, this little obstruction tn the way of progress that Cortwright and his crowd planned, and that you and I and a lot of other fools and knaves helped to build, will be cooling Itself under two hundred feet of water." "Good Lord!'- said the editor, still unable to compass the barbaric suddenness of it. Then he ran his eye over the scratch sheets again. "Does this formal notice that the waste-gates will be closed three weeks from tomorrow go as it stands?" he Inquired. "It does. I have the department's authority. You know as well as I do that unless a fixed day is set there will be no move made. We are all trespassers here, and we've been warned off. That's all there is to i t And if we can't get our little belongings up into the hills in three weeks it's our loss: we had no business bringing them here," The editor looked up with a light of a new discovery in htf eyes. "You say 'we' and 'our.' That reminds me; Garner told me no longer ago than this afternoon that you are on record for something like a hundred thousand dollars' worth of choice Mirapoli* front feet. How about that?" Brouillard's smile was quite heartwhole. "I've kept my salary in a separate pocket Harlan. Bfsides that—well. I came here with nothing and 1 shall go away with nothing.

But of coarse, you won't . . . Well, here goes for the fireworks and a chance of a soaped rope." And he pushed the bell button for the copy boy. Late as tt was when be left the Spotlight office, Brouillard waited on the corner for a Quadje&al ear. and. catch tag one, he waa presently whisked out to the ornate Ttna tn the eastern smbnrb. There wan a tight rn the hail and another tn a room to the rear, and st was Amy e s t answered his touch rt •>• s*C Tank j "No, 1 can't stay," he said, when she aaked him la. "But I had to come, 12 It waa only for a minute. The deed is done. I've had my nexu-to-the-last round-up with Mr. J. Wesley Cortwright, and tomorrow's Spotlight will fire the sunset gun (or Mirapolis. Is your father here?" "No. He and 8tevle are up at the mine. 1 am looking for them on every car." "When they come, tell your father It's time to hike. Are you all packedV She nodded. "Everything la ready." "All right Three of my teams will be here by midnight, at the latest The drivers and helpers will be good men and you can trust them. Don't let anything Interfere with your getting aafely up to the mountain tonight There'll be warm times In Gomorrah from this on and I want a free band—which I shouldn't have with you here." "Oh, I'm glad, glad!—and I'm Just as scared as I can be!" she gasped with true feminine inconsistency. "They will single you out first; what if I am sending you to your death, Victor! Oh, please don't go and break my heart the other way across by getting killed!" He drew a deep breath and laughed. "You don't know how good It sounds to hear you say that—and say it in that way. I sha'n't be reckless. But I'm going to bring J. Wesley and his crowd to book—they've got to go, and they've got to turn the 'Little Susan' loose." "They will never do that," she said sadly. "I'll make them; you wait and see." She looked up with the violet eyes kindling. "I told you once that you could do anything you wanted to—if you only wanted to hard enough. I believed it then; I believe it now." "No," he denied with a smile that was half sorrowful, "I can't make two hills without a valley between them. I've chased down the back track like a little man—for love's sake, Amy— and I've burned all the bridges behind me as I ran; namely, the sham deeds to the pieces of reservoir bottom I'd been buying. But when it is all over I shall be Just where I was when we began—exactly one hundred thousand dollars short of being able to say: 'Come, girl, let's go and get married.' " "But father owes you a hundred thousand dollars," she said quickly. "Not in a hundred thousand years, 0 most inconsistent of women! Didn't we agree that that money was poisoned? It was the purchase price of an immortal soul, and I wouldn't touch It with a pair of tongs. That Is why your father couldn't use It; It belonged to the devil and the devil wanted it back." "Father won't take that view of It" she protested. "Then you'll have to help me to bully him, that's all. But I must go and relieve Grlzxy, who is doing guard duty at the mixers. . . . Tell your father— no, that isn't what I meant to say. it's this—" and hia arms went suddenly across the hundred-thousanddollar chasm. CHAPTER XXIII Exodus In the Yellowstone National park there is an apparently bottomless pit which can be Instantly transformed into a spouting, roaring Vesuvius of boiling water by the simple expedient of dropping a bar of soap into i t The Bpotlight went to press at three o'clock. By the earliest graying of dawn, and long before the sun had shown itself above the eastern Timanyonia. BrouUlard's bar of soap was melting and the Mirapolitan underdepths were beginning to heave. Like wildfire, the news spread from Up to lip and street to street, and by sunrise the geyser was retching and vomiting, belching debris of cries and maledictions, and pouring excited and riotous crowds into Chlgrlngo avenue. Most naturally, the Spotlight office was the first point of attack, and Harlan suffered loss, though tt wan inconsiderable. At the battering down of the doors the angry mob found ltaalf confronting the young reclamation service chief and four members of his staff. All armed. Brouillard spoke briefly and to the point "1 am the man who wrote that article you're been reading, and Mr. Harlan printed it as a matter of news. If you have anything to say to mm yon know whore to find me. Now, on and let Mr. Harlan's or somebody win get hurt Nobody stayed to press the argument at the moment An early-morning mob is proverbially Incoherent and incoheslve; and, besides, loaded Win cheaters in the hands of Ave determined men are apt to have an eloquence which la more or leas convincing. But with the opening of business the geyser spouted again. The exchanges were mobbed by eager seUers, each frenzied struggler hoping against hope that he might find someone simple enough to buy. At ten o'clock the bank closed—"Temporarily," the placard notice said. But there were plenty to believe that it would never open again. By noon the trading panic had exhausted itself a little, though the lobby and cafe of the Metropole were crowded, and anxious groups quickly formed around any nucleus of rumor or gossip in the streets. Between one and two o'clock, while Brouillard, Leshlngton and Anson were hastily eating a luncheon sent over to the mapping room from Bongras', Harlan drifted in. "Spill your news," commanded Leshlngton gruffly. "What's doing, and who's doing it?" "Nobody, and nothing much," said Harlan, answering the two queries as one. "The town is falling apart like a bunch of sand and the get-away has set in. Two full trains went east this forenoon, and two more are scheduled for this afternoon if the railroad people can get the cars here." "'Good-by, little girl, good-by,"' hummed Grlslow, entering In time to hear the report of the flight But Leshlngton was shaking his big head moodily. "Laugh about it if you can, but it's no Joke," he growled. "When the froth Is blown away and the bubbles quit rising, there are going to be some mighty bitter settlings left in the bottom of the stein." "You're right Leshlngton." said Harlan, gravely. "What we're seeing now is only the shocked surprise of it —as when a man says 'Ouch!' before he realizes that the dog which has bitten him has a well-developed case of rabies. Well come to the hydrophobic stage later on." By nightfall of thlB first day the editor's ominous prophecy seemed about to reach Its fulfillment The avenue was crowded again and the din and clamor was the roar of a mob infuriated. Brouillard and Leshlngton had Just returned from posting a company of the workmen guard at the mixers and crushers, when Grlslow, who had been scouting on the avenue, came in. "Harmless enough yet" he reported. "It's only some more of the get-away that Harlan was describing. Just the same, it's something awful. People are fairly climbing over one another on the road up the hill to the station— with no possible hope of getting a train before some time tomorrow. Teamsters are charging twenty-five dollars a load for moving stuff that won't find cars for a week, and they're scarce at the price." Leshlngton, who was not normally a profane man, opened his mouth and said things. "If the Cort wright crowd had one man In it with a single idea beyond saving his own miserable stake!** he stormed. "What are the spellbinders doing, Grixxyr The hydrographer grinned. "Cort' wright and a chosen few left this afternoon, hotfoot for Washington, to get the government to Interfere. That's the story they'd like to hare the people believe. But the fact is, they ran away from Judge Lynch.** T e a ; I think I see 'em coming back —not!" snorted the first assistant Then to Brouillard: "That puts tt up to us from this out Is there anything we can do?" Brouillard shook his head. "I dont want to stop the retreat I've heard from President Ford. The entire westtern division will hustle the business of emptying the town, and the quicker tt is done the sooner it will be over" For a tumultuous week the flight from the doomed city went on, and the overtaxed single-track railroad wrought miracles of transportation. Not until the second week did the idea of material salvage take root but. once started, it grew like Jonah's gourd. Hundreds of wrecking crews were formed. "It begins to look a little better.*1 said Anson on the day in the third week -when the army of governsnant laborers began to strip the final forms from the top of the great wall which now united the two mountain shoul dors and comptetety overshadowed and dominated the dismantled town. -If the avenue would only take tts hwnch and go, the agony would be waa the young chief's prediction, and the foreboding verified itself that night. Looting of a more or leas brazea sort had been going on from the first and by nine o'clock of the night of prediction a loosely organized mob of drink-maddened terrorists was drifting from street to street, and there were violence and Incendiarism to follow. Though the property destruction mattered little, the anarchy It waa breeding had to be controlled. Brouillard and Leshlngton got out their reserve force and did what they could to restore some semblance of order. It waa little enough; and by ten o'clock the amateur policing of the city had reduced itself to a double guarding of the dam and the machinery, and a cordoning of the Metropole. the reclamation service buildings, and the 8potllght office. For Harlan, the dash of sporting blood in his veins asserting itself, still stayed on and continued to Issue his paper. "I said I wanted to be in at the death, and for a few minutes tonight I thought I was going to be," he told Brouillard, when the engineer had posted his guards and had climbed the stair to the editorial office. Then he asked a question: "When is this little hell-on-earth going to be finally extinguished, Victor?" Instead of answering, Brouillard put a question of his own: "Did you know that Cortwright and Schermerhorn and Judge Williams came back this evening, Harlan?" "I did," said the newspaper man. "They are registered at the Metropole as large as life." "What's up?" "That Ls what I'd like to know. There's a bunch of strangers at the Metropole, too, a sheriff's posse, Poodles thinks; at least, there ls a deputy from Red Butte with the crowd." Harlan tilted back in his chair and scanned the celling reflectively. "This thing is getting on my nerve, old man. I wish we could clean the slate and all go home." "It Is going to be cleaned. Notices will be posted tomorrow warning everybody that the waste-gates will be closed promptly on the date advertised." "When ls it? Things have been revolving too rapidly to let me remember such a trivial Item as a date." "It Is the day after tomorrow, at noon." ' The owner of the Spotlight nodded. "Let her go, Gallagher. I've got everything on skids, even the presses. An revolr—or perhaps one should say, Au reservoir." Fresh shoutings and a crackling of pistols arose in the direction of the plaza, and Brouillard got up and went to a window. The red glow of other house burnings loomed against the somber background of Jack's mountain. "Senseless savages." he muttered, and then went back to the editor. "I don't like this Cortwright reappearance. Harlan. I wish I knew what tt means." "Let's see," said the newsman thoughtfully; "what is there worth taking that they didn't take in the saure qui pent? By Jove—say! Did old David Masslngale get out of J. Wesley's clutches before the lightning struck r "I wish I could say Tea,' and be sure of it" was the sober reply. "You knew about the thiering stock deal, or what you didn't know I told you.

Of course, there ls bound to be a future of some sort; but that is the present condition of affairs.** "How about those notes in the bank?

POSED WITH HIS 600 WIVES W h e n the B r i t i s h Captured Fumban the King Was Given a Ball and Reception. A reception and dance was given to the British force by the king of Kurnban shortly after the capture of this province from the German forces. The function was featured by a speech from the throne and the taking of a photograph of the king and hia ML' wives and 149 children. Soon after the last of the fighting In the province the conquerors accept ed an invitation from the king to visit the palace grounds, which open on the market place. Here they were met by the king, dressed in new flowing robes of blue with a blue muffler tied round his neck. After the soldiers were lined up at seats on either side of the market place the king made a short speech, first In his native tongue and then in pigeon English, admonishing his subjects to be kind and courteous to the new conquerors. Then the dance began. The orchestra was made up chiefly of various sized drums made of hollow trees and stretched skins. The only other instrument was a species of rattle, with which most of the natives were armed, and with which they kept remarkable time.

Purely a Matter of Business, Which Every Farmer Should Recognl Well to Remember to Use the Ax With Care, iPreftircd by the LTrUted Stales DvpajrtznciiX of Agriculture.) A cash return for the wood grown on the farm woodlot is Just as possible aa a profit on other farm cropa. Farmers often lose sight of this fact. mainly because timber requires only a •small amount of labor but a long period of years to bring it to a marketable condition. Often, therefore, the owner is satisfied with an annual supply of dead firewood, and the woodlot becomes a harboring place for insect pests and a meager pasturage for roaming live stock. Yet improvement of the woodlot depends upon just a few simple principles which any farmer may learn aud practice. These are contained in a new farmers' bulletin, No. 711. published by the United States department of agriculture. Improvement of the woodlot begins with the cutting out of all dead and diseased timber. Then the mature merchantable trees should be removed, like any other farm crop, when conditions favor a sale. New trees Carnations and Cld-Fashioned Pinks Are Fine for the Hardy Garden. PLANT YOUR HARDY GARDEN NOW By E. VAN B E N T H U Y S E N . A h a r d ; garden is the garden for the busy woman. It will last for years and be a delight to her and to her neighbors with a very little care. Take a careful survey of your re- Sources and make a study of your own Individual problem. "Book taught" gardeners may be all right up to a certain limit, but one season's experiment along your own lines will give you an Insight Into plant life that, aside from being a most fascinating Study, will teach you more than years of reading. Those who wish to plant roses and Hot bother with them more than to prune and fertilize annually and keep the ground mellow about the plants Should plant hybrid perpetual roses. The hybrid perpetuals are the hardiest of roses and will stand more cold Weather than any other species. The following are desirable specimens: Anne de Diesbach, bright carmine; Baroness Rothschild, an exqulBlte pink; La France, blooms all Summer; Frau Karl Druschkl, snow White, has splendid buds and immense flowers, four to Sve inches across, and Is delightfully fragrant; General Jacqueminot, a popular rose of brilliant red; Paul Neyron, lovely dark pink; Grass an Teplitz, a strong, vigorous grower, of richest crimson; Killarney, both pink and white, are hardy, and Mrs. John Laing, a rose of delicious fragrance an J of a rich satiny pink color. A hardy border that is a triumph of beauty and has been enjoyed for years contains hollrhocks, phlox, larkspur, foxglove, Iris, eohunbfsas, pinks, and sunflowers. It tt not so expensive, Hgwes up about six cents per square loot, fcBJt arranged according to size i p i color makes a wonderful show- Hardy roses require ordinarily good garden soil, well enriched with wellrotted manure. Thev must have an open, sunny position clear of the roots of all trees and shrubs. It is well to prepare the bed a few days before planting to allow for settling. Everblooming roses should be planted 18 inches apart and the hybrid perpetuals two feet apart. Roses should be planted with the roots diverging and at, least nine inches below the surface of the ground, the soil made firm about them and then should be liberally watered. Hollyhocks succeed best In rich, well-drained soil, and should be lightly protected during the winter months with coarse straw or spruce boughs. Larkspur seed sown in the open ground early will produce flowering plants by the beginning of July, and will give a continuous succession ~f bloom from then until frost. It is excellent for cutting and very ornamental. It produces in a great variety of forms aud colors some of the most beautiful flowers in cultivation. AM varieties are easily cultivated and adaptable to most conditions, but in a soil deeply dug and well enriched with fine old manure, their blooms are the finest. Set from one and one half to two feet each way. Old-fashioned clove pink, and its more elegant relation, the carnation, flower so easily as an annual that it has attained a most popular position among garden plants. The beautiful flowers make an attractive display with their world of color, and are greatly to be desired as a table decoration and also as a border plant. Pinks grow easily from seed and come true to color. Sow out of doors when danger from frost is over. If the seed is sown early enough the perennials will bloom the first year. There are a great many other plants that are hardy and desirable, this is but a mere beginning. Choose the flowers you are fond of and the work will be more successful and more pleasant. But have a garden now, no matter how small. Doubts White KU'^rnay. Hardy and Exquisite. Second Growth White Oaks—Woodlot In Good Condition. should be planted !n the open spaces to grow up and fill In the forest canopy and encourage the growth of tall, 3traight timber. YVoodlots may be divided into two classes, each determined by the character of the stand. On one type, the trees are a second growth of approximately the same age and it Is found that undesirable species are crowding out valuable trees, the former should be cut to allow the unhampered 5rowth of the better quality timber. While timber taken out In this cutting will rarely pay directly for Us removal, the resulting enhancement In value of the remaining stand makes the work a jood Investment The presence of dead or dying tress in the stand, a very dense interlocked crown Cover, stems very slender In proportion to their height, or apparent stagnation in the height growth, all indicate that a thinning is needed. This usually is done when the stand is from 15 to 20 years old. The operation Is similar in principal to thinning any other farm crop where It is desired to obtain a few good plants rather than many of poor quality. The owner should use the ax with care, removing only trees which crowd others and cause too great competition for sunlight. Material removed in a thinning is valuable for fence po9ts and pole3 and should pay for the operation. As a rule, not more than one- RIGHT CONDITION FOR SOWS Search for Superior Sire. Cntil we get perfect animals we should search for a sire that In some particulars is superior to the cows in our herds. Three Rations Suggested by Nebraska Experiment Station—Have Alfalfa Hay Accessible. Brood sows should be taken away from the rest of the hogs and be fed a different ration. Three rations suggested by the Nebraska experiment station are: (1) One part high-grade tankage. 12 parts corn. (2) Skim milk or buttermilk and corn, using three parts of the milk to one part of corn. (3) Wheat and shorts. Whichever ration is used, a rack containing alfalfa should be so placed that the hogs have free access to the hay at all times, in addition the sows should be supplied with minerals. It is a good plan to dump the wood and coal ashes in the lot where the sows run. A mixture composed of a basket of charcoal or fine coal, five pounds nl salt, five pounds of air-slaked lime, and twe pounds of sulphur will five good rstnres if kept snail? available. Dry Yards for Sheep. A well drained dry yard and stable floor are worth more to the sheep keeper than a $10,000 sheep barn. EXCELLENT MASH FOR FOWLS Mixture of Wheat Bran, Middlings, Ccrnmeal. Oats and Beef Scraps Is Recommended. A recommended dry mash Is mads as follows: Wheat bran, two parts. Wheat middlings, one p a r t Cornmeal. one part. Ground oats, one p a r t Beef scraps, one p a r t To this can be added In bulr, cut clover hay according to the way thefowls eat i t The parts of the rest ot the formula Is by weight Decreased Milk Yield. It has been proven by experiments that it takes about one-third more feed to produce a given amount of milk when the cow is exposed to sorere weather and not bedded than when she is properly shedded and provided with bedding. Point In Feeding Calves. One of the greatest points in feeding calves is not to overfeed, firth to one-fourth of the treea uhould be removed at ^ne tlmo. Grapevine, ivy and woodbine, and similar climbem which have grown into the treea should be cut out by severing their main at ems near the ground. In the second type of woodlot the treea vary greatly in age and height a n ! the stand la largely dominated by old trees, whose tops *<hut off the sunlight and retard the growth of the younger trees bene-vth. Such a tract should flrst be cleared of dead and diseased timber. Next, the mature living trees should be removed. Thia should be delayed, however, until sufficient reproduction is started in the openings made in the first operation, and marketing conditions permit a satisfactory sale. Heavy stands composed almost wholly of mature trees should not be removed all at once unless the owner expects to provide for the new crop by planting. The old treea should be taken off in two or three successive cuttings at intervals of several years, each cutting taking from one-third to one-half the trees. These cuttings allow the remaining trees to receive more sunlight and thus encourage them to produce more seed. Neither of the first two cuttings should be so heavy as to encrurage the growth of weeds or grass on the forest floor. The third cutting should be made after the seedlings are established and there is no further need \ for protection of the old trees. Scattered old trees, suppressing valuable young growth, often will be found in woodlots. Such trees will never be of much value for lumber and their wldespreading habit often results in the suppression or killing of the young and better-formed seedlings, which frequently may be of considerable value, it is best in such cr.ses to remove the old trees at once. Pasture and timber production cannot be practiced on the same area, except to the disadvantage of each, and the combination will not be as remunerative to the owner as the practice of either one separately. Cattle, horses, sheep or goats eat young seedlings, trample them out, or brush against them and break them off. Hogs eat the seed and thus prevent reproduction from starting, or root young seedlings out of the ground. The existing growth is damaged through the trampling or wounding of the roots and the compacting of the soil so that it is impervious to water. Horses should be kept out of the woodlot entirely because they often peel the bark from trees and eat the young shoots. When young growth is not desired, a f°w head of cattle are permissible, provided, however, that the ground is not soft when they are turned in. Hogs may be used to aid reproduction before the time for the seed to fall. They will root up the ground and thus put it In good condition for receiving the seed. Goats and sheep should be allowed in the woodlot only when it Is necessary to clear up brush of undesirable species. Care should be taken to keep fire from getting into the woodlot. This destroys the fallen leaves and accumulated litter of several years, thus doing away with the very material with which the trees enrich their own soil. Burned-over ground becomes exposed, evaporation is greater, and more of the rain and malted snow mna. off the sur*\ce. T^eaf or grass fires usually destroy the young seedlings up to one inch In diameter and also do great damage to other trees in the stand, especially by making conditions favorable for the entrance of rot-producing fungi.

To women who are suffering from some form of woman's special ills, and have a constant fear of breaking down, the three following letters ought to bring hope: — North Crandon, Wis.—"When I -was 16 years old I got married and at 18 years I gave birth to twins and it left me with very rx>or health. I could not walk across the floor without having to sit down to rest and it was hard for me to keep about and do my work. I went to a doctor and ne told me I haa a displacement and rlcers, and would have to have an operation. This frightened me so much that I did not know what to do. Having heard of Lydia E.

A Famous Physician's Wonderful Discovery After a series of careful experiments and testa at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y^ covering many years—Dr. Pierce, the medical director of that hospital, made announcement that he could prove that a medicine which be called "ANURIC" was the best uric acid solvent now to be had. As a remedy for those easily recognized symptoms of inflammation—as scalding urine, backache and frequent urination, as well as sediment in the urine, or if uric acid in the blood has caused rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, gout, it is simply wonderful bow quickly "Anuric" acts; causing the pains and stiffness rapidly to disappear. Swollen hands, ankles, feet are due to a dropsical condition, often caused by disordered kidneys. Naturally when the' kidneys are deranged the blood is filled with poisonous waste matter, which settles in the feet, ankles and wrists; or under the eyes in bag-like formations. It is just as necessary to keep the kidneys acting properly as to keep the bowels active. The very best possible way to take care of yourself is to take a glass of hot^water before meals and an "Anuric" tablet. In this way it is readily dissolved with the food, picked up by the blood and finally reaches the kidneys, where it has a tonio effect in rebuilding those organs. Step into the drug store and ask for s 50-eent package of ^Anuric," or send Dr. Pierce lOe for trial pekg. "Anuric"—many times more potent than lithia, eliminates uric acid as hot water melts sugar.

K&st JLaxslng- One hundred far in Doya of Michigan will leave their lamia In July. The above fact does not alarm the "Stay-ou-the-Farm" ad voeatea, however, be<;auae the hundred boyjs are going lo the second annual Farm Boys Camp ai the Michigan Agricultural College. While city boys are pitching their tents In the country, these lads will pitch their tents on the campus of Michigan'** greatest center of agricultural education at East Lansing. The experiment was first made last summer when 39 boys from 23 comities came for the first Farm Boys*' Camp. The Camp was so successful, that provision will be made to accozu*. modate one hundred boys this year. The Farm Boys' Camp is mar* than a mere camp; it is a combination of School and Camp. It is a movement to give farm boys a t&ate of agricultural while they are still in their teene—at the age when t h e / usually have strong tendencies to make their vocational choices. Bach morning is spent at real hard study of farm problems. No boofc» ax* us€d; the College farm and the College livestock constitute the laboratory where these boys will do their studying. The afternoon is devoted to game*, lessons in swimming and varioua other recreational activities. In th« evening the boys gather around tha campflre to listen to the leader's talks, tell stories and sing songs. There will be a leader for each group of ten boys. These leaders are teach, ers of agriculture in the High Schools of Michigan. This ia but another of the many innovations to be included In M. A. C.'a growing summer school which is under the supervision of Dean E. H. Ryder, The Camp begins on July 10th and lasts ten days. Boys who are members of the Agricultural Clubs, superintended by the College are elegible and the age limits are from 12 to 16 years. Creating a New Profession. The new movement in rural life Is creating a new profession, or, perhaps it Bhould be said that it is regenerating en old profession, for since the beginning of the Boys' and Girls' Club movement, rural teachers and other rural leaders have been compelled to acquire a new training. They can no longer continue to merely "Keei School"; their communities are demanding some practical results in tht nature of home projects connected with school work. Last year there were 5000 boys and girls in Michigan organized into various kinds of clubs for the purpose of carrying on home project work. The number is increasing at a rapid rate. The demand right now is for teachers and other leaders who are equipped to direct these clubs. The summer sessions at the Michigan Agricultural College will attempt to meet these demands for new training. A special school of instruction for club leaders will be conducted at East Lansing from July 17th to July 22nd. Those who attend this special school will be taught how to demon, ttrate the new cold-pack method of canning. Instruction will be given in the methods of conducting corn clubs, potato clubs, bean clubs, gardening clubs, poultry duba, garment-making clubs, etc. The demonstrations and classes will be under the supervision of those who have charge of the clufc work in Michigan, assisted by soxm* •ne from the department at Wasb tegton. Dean E. H. Ryder of the Summer Ichooi announces that this special achool of instruction for club leader* to to be conducted without cost t# 'hose who attend. Tbe only expeng/ «rill be for board.

What Do the Children Drink? There are times when mother or father feeds the youngsters something that they know children should not have. Perhaps it is some rich dessert but more often It is tea or coffee. It is better to have some delicious, hot food-drink that you can take yourself and feed to your children, conscious that it will help and strengthen, but never hurt them. A Yorkstate lady says: "I used coffee many years in spite of the conviction that it injured my nervous system and produced my nervous head* aches. While visiting a friend I -was served with Postum and I determined to get a package and try it myself. The result was all that could be desired— a delicious, finely flavored, richly colored beverage. Since I quit coffee, Postum has worked wonders for me. "My husband, who had suffered from kidney trouble when drinking coffee, quit the coffee and took up Postnm with me and since drinking Postum he has felt stronger and better, with no Indication of kidney trouble. T o n may be sure 1 find ft a great comfort to have a warm drink at meals that I can give my children, with a dear conscience that it will help and not hart them as coffee or tea would."

M.—General Pershing, who visited the camp on a tour of inspection, emphatically denied the alarmist rumors published by many American newspapers to the effect that the army now in Mexico is menaced on every hand. "You may say," he said, "that our army now In Mexico is fully able to cope with any situation which may arise, and you may add also that there is no danger of an attack by any source or direction. "The result of the battle at Ojos Azules a few days ago put such fear in the heads of the bandits that it will be a long time before they invite another such beating as was then given them." General Pershing denied categorically that there has been any movements of the army towards the border or that any such movement is intended in the near future. The lines of communication are well guarded and forced and forces so well disposed as to be in no danger of being attacked, he said. Grain, Etc.

The tight* In a certain upper office In the Nlquoia building were still turned on long after M. Poudrecaulx had given up the hope of the deep-sea Bounding for that night. Some time after the lobby crowd had melted, and before the lower avenue had begun to order email-hour suppers of Bongraa, the two high windows in the Nlquoia building went dark and a few minutes later the man who had spent half the night tramping the floor or sitting with his bead In his hands at the desk in the upper room came out of the street archway and walked briskly to the telegraph office across the plaza. "How Is the line tonight Sanford— pretty clear?" he asked of the night manager, killing time while the sleepy sight receiving clerk was making his third attempt to count the words in the closely-written, two-page government cipher. "Nothing doing; "a little A. P. stuff drizzling In now and then," said the manager; adding: "But that's like the poor—always with us." "All right; there is no particular rush about this matter of mine, Just ao It la sure to be in the secretary's bands at the opening of business In the morning. But be careful that it goes straight—you'd better have It checked back before It is put on the through wire from Denver." "Sure, Mr. Broulllard. What you say in this tittle old shack goes as It lays. "Well look out and not bull your message. Good night." CHAPTER XXI An Evening Call Notwithstanding the preliminary rumors which Bongras and many others had sought so anxiously to verify, the Mlrapolltan awakening to a realization that once more the tide had turned to bring new billows of prosperity tumbling into the valley of the Nlquoia came with a sudden and triumphant shock. The first of the quickening waves fell upon the government reservation. Between sunrise and nightfall, on a day when the cloud of depression had crown black with panic threatenings, the apathy which had lately character laed the work on the great dam disappeared as If by magic. The city found Stg billboards posted with loud calls for labor; the Idle mixers were put in commission; the quarries and crushers began to thunder again; and the stagings once more shook and trembled under the feet of a busy army of pud* dlers, While the revival was as yet only Is the embryonic period, fresh labor began to come In gangs and in carloads and presently by special trains. Swarming colonies of Greeks, Italians and Bulgarians were dumped upon the city through the gate of the railroad station, and once more Cbigrlngo avenue at night became a cheerful midway answering to the speech of all nations. Change, rerrvlflcation, reanlmation instantly became the new order of the day; and again Mlrapolls flung itself Joyously into the fray, reaping where it bad not sown and sowing only where the quickest crop could ba gathered. For now the dullest of the reapers saw that the government work was really the Mlrapolltan breath of Ufa. < This new and never-mentioned con victlon wrought an eager change in men and in methods. Credit vanished and spot cash waa tacitly acknowledged to be the only way to do business in a live community. Fortunes oji««tj»rt bauds swiftly, as before, but sow there was little bargaining and. with hot haste for the foreword, little time for ft. To the western motto of -Oo to It and gat the money* waa added: "And dont coma back without it" It was said with a laugh, but behind the laugh there was a menace. Among the Individual transformations wrought by the new condition*, the young chief of the reclamation aervlos afforded the moat striking example. Prom the morning when he bad summarily canceled the lease for the offices la the Nlquoia building and bad returned bis headquarters to the old log frnfl4*rg« on the gorerument reear- •attoa aad thence had Issued bis first of orders tor the reanmpttoa of worhoB the those who had not known him best discovered that they had not known him at all Even to Grtslow and the man of his staff he was curt, crisply r^nlstory, almost brutal For one and ail there was rarely anything beyond the shotlike sentence: "Drive It, man; drive it; that's what you're hare t o r - drive it!" The time ho took to eat his hurried meals at Bongras' could be measured in minutes, and what hours he gate to sleep no man knew, since be was the last to leave the headquarters at night and the first oa the work in the morning. Twice, after the renewed activities on the great wall had become a well-ordered race against time, and the concrete waa pouring into the high forms in steady streams from the ranlced batteries of mixers, Mr. Coitr wright had sent for Broulllard. and on each occasion the messenger had gone back with the brief word. "Too busy during working hours." And when a third messenger came to Inquire what Mr. Brouillard's working hours were, the equally blunt answer returned waa: "All the time." In the face of such discouragements Mr. Cortwright was constrained to pocket his dignity as mayor, as the potentate of the exchanges, and as the unquestionable master of the surly young industry captain who refused to come when he was called, and to go in person. Choosing the evening hour when he had been assured that he was likely to find Broulllard alone and at work, he crossed the boundaries of the sacred reservation and made his way to the door of the log-built mapping room. "I came around to see what Is eating you these days," was the pudgy tyrant's greeting for the young man flitting under the shaded desk lamp. "Why don't you drop In once ln^a while and give me the run of thingsr* "I gave your clerk the reason," said Broulllard laconically. "I'm too busy.'1' "The devil you are!" snapped the great man, finding the only armchair In the room and dropping heavily Into it "Since when?" "Since the first time you sent for me—and before." Mr. Cortwright recovered his working geniality only with a palpable effort "See here, Broulllard, you know you never make any money by being short with me. Let's drop It and get down to business. What I wanted to say Is that you are overdoing it; you are put' ting on too much steam. You've brought the boom, all right, but at the pace you're Betting It wont last long enough. Are you catching onr" "I'm listening," was the noncommittal reply. "Well, enough's enough, and too much of a good thing scalds the hog before you're ready to dress It and cut It up. It's all right for you to run men In here by the train load and scatter 'em out over your scaffolding—the more the merrier, and It's good for the town—but you needn't sweat the last shovelful of hurry out of them the way you're doing. It won't do to get your Job finished too soon." "Before congress convenes, you mean?" suggested Broulllard. "That's just what I mean. 8txing It out Make It last" Broulllard sat back In his pivot chair and began to play with the paperknife. "And if I don't choose to 'string it out'—If I even confess that I am straining every nerve to do this thing that you don't want me to do—what than. Mr. Cortwright?" The quiet retort Jolted the stocky man In the armchair as if it had been a blow. But he recovered quickly. "I've been looking for that," be said with a nervous twinkling of the little gray eyes. "You've no business being out of business, Broulllard. If you'd quit paddling sand and cement and little rocks together and strike your gait right in ten years you'd be the richest man this side of the mountain a 111 be open-banded with you: This time you've got us where we cant wiggle. We've got to have mora time. How much is it going to cost us?" Broulllard shook his head slowly. "Odd as It may seem to you, rm oot of your market this time, Mr. Cortwright— quite out of it** "Oh. no, you're not You're got property to sell—a good bit of i t Wecan turn it for you at a figure that wUl—* "No; you are mistaken," waa the quick reply. 1 have no property in Mlrapolls.

Don't you go around trying to stand that corpse on its feet; it's a damd one, I tell yon! The Coronlda titles are all right!" There are BO Coronlda titles. You have known tt all along, aad I know tt —now. I have tt straight from the bureau of land statistics, in a letter from a man who knows.

"We've got to get out alive and we're going to get out alive. What's your price?" "1 have answered that question once, hut 111 make It a little plainer if you wish. It Is beyond your reach; If you should turn your money-coining soul into cash you couldnt pay It this time Mr. Cortwright" "That's guff—boy-talk—play-ranfclng! You want something—is it that damned Maasingale business again? I dont own the railroad, but If you think I do. 111 sign anything you want to write to the traffic people. Let Maastngsie sell his ore and get the money for It Hell go gamble it as he did yours." Broulllard looked up under the shaded electric globe and bis handsome face wrinkled in a sour smile. "You are ready to let go. are you?" he said. "You are too late. Mr. Ford returned from Europe a week ago, and I have a wire saying that tonight's "How U the Line Tonight, Pretty Clear?" through freight from Brewster is chiefly made up of empty ore cars for the 'Little Susan.' " The sandy-gray eyes blinked at this, but Mr. Cortwright was of those who die hard. "What I said still holds good. Mas singale or his son, or both of them, will gamble the money. And If they don't, we've got 'em tied up In a hard knot on the stock proposition." "I was coming to that" said Broulllard quietly. "For a long time you have been telling me what I should do and I have done It Now I'll take my turn. You must notify your associates that the 'Little Susan' deal is off. There will be a called meeting of the directors here In this room tomorrow evening at eight o'clock, and—" "Who calls It?" Interrupted the tyrant "The president." "President nothing!" was the snort* ed comment "An old, drunken gambler who hasn't got sense enough to go in when it rains! Say, Broulllard, 111 cut that pie so there'll be enough to go around the table. Just leave Maasingale out of it and make up your mind that you're going to sit In with us. We've bought the mine and paid for it I've got the stock put away where it's safe. Maasingale cant touch a share of it or vote It either." Broulllard shook his bead. "You are stubbornly hard to convince, Mr, Cortwright but 111 try one more time. You will come bare tomorrow evening, with your confederates in the deal prepared to take the money you have actually spent in bettorments and prepared to release the stock. If you fan to do so you will get nothing. Is that explicit enough?* "You're craxy!" shouted the promoter. "You talk as if there wasn't any law In this countryl" There isnt—for such men as yon; you and your kind put jum serves above the law. But that Is neither here nor there. You dont want to go into court with this conspiracy which you have cooked up to beat David Masv stngale out of his property. It's the butt thing on earth you want to do. So you'd better do the other thing— while yon can." fl^ CHAPTER XXII £ g The Sunset Gun Mr. Cortwright sat back in his chair, and ones mora Brouniaxd saw hi the sandy-gray eyes the look which had bean in the SOB'S ayes when the derelict fought for freedom to flnlah tiffing Stephen Mssstngala "It's a pretty dangerous thing to tr? to bold a man up unless youVe got the drop oa him, Broulllard," ha said significantly. T v e got yon covered from my pocket; rve had you covered that way ever since you begaa to book and roar on me a couple of months ago. One little wire word to Waaaiagtoa fixes you for good aad an. If I say the word, you'll stay on your Job Just as long tut it will take another man u> get here to supersede you." Broulllard Laughed. "The pocket drop Is never very safe, Mr. Cortwright You are likely to lose too much time feeling for the proper range. Then, too, you can never be sure that you won't miss. Also, your assumption that I'm taking an unarmed man's chance is wrong. I can kill you before you can pull the trigger of the pocket gun you speak of— kill you so dead that you won't need anything but a coroner's Jury and a coffin. How long would it take you to get action in the Washington matter. do you think?" "I've told you; you have Just about a week longer to live, at the farthest" "I can better that," waa the cool reply. "I have asked you to do a certain thing tomorrow night. If you don't do It, the Spotlight will print, on the following morning, that letter 1 spoke of—the letter from my friend In the bureau of land statistics. When that letter is printed everybody in Mlrapolis will know that you and your accom plicea are plain swindlers, amenable to the criminal law, and from that moment there will never be another real estate transfer in the Niquola valley." The promoter rose slowly out of his chair and stood leaning heavily with his fat hands, palms downward, on the fiat-topped desk. His cheeks were puffed out and the bitten mustaches bristled like the whiskers of a gray old leader of the timber wolves. "Broulllard." he grated huskily, "does this mean that you're breaking with us, once for all?" "It means more than that; it means that I have reached a point at which I am ashamed to admit that there was ever anything to break." "Then listen: You've helped this thing along as much as, or more than, anybody else in this town; and there are men right here In Mlrapolls— plenty of 'em—who will kill you like a rat in a hole if you go back on them as you are threatening to. Don't you know that?" The younger man was balancing *he paper cutter across his finger. "That Is the least of my worries," he answered, speaking slowly. "I am all sorts of a moral coward, I suppose; l'V9 proved that often enough In the past few months, God knows. But I'm not the other kind, Mr. Cortwright" "Then I'll take a hand!" snarled the tyrant at bay. "I'll spend a million dollars, if I have to, blacklisting you from one end of this country to the other! I'll fix it so you'll never build anything bigger than a hog pen again as long as you live! I'll publish your record wherever there Is a newspaper to print It!" He pounded on the desk with his flst—"I'll do it—money can do It! More than that, you'll never get a smell of that Chtgrlngo mine—you nor Dave Masslngale!" Broulllard tossed the paper-knife Into a half-opened drawer and squared himself at the blotting pad. "That Is your challenge, Is It?" be said curtly. "So be It Start your machinery. You will doubtless get me, not because you have money, bat because for a time I was weak enough and wicked enough to climb down and stand on your level. But If you dont hurry, Mr. Cortwright, 111 get you first. Are you going? One thing more—and it's a kindness; get your son out of town before this Masslngale matter comes up for adjustment It will be safer." "Is that all yon have to say?* •Pretty nearly all, except to ten you that your time Is growing short and you and those who are in with you had better begin to set your houses In order. If you'll come over here at eight o'clock tomorrow night prepared to do the square thing by David Masking*la, m withhold the publication of that letter which win stamp you and your associates as criminals before the lawr but that Is the only concession I shall make.** •"You've got to make at least one more!" stormed the outgoing magnata.

"The men who drink alcoholic liquors, even if they axe not known to become drunk, are not advanced to responsible positions."—A_ M. Byera Company, Pittsburgh, Pa. "In our work we cannot use a man who drinks liquor. Men who use It at all are not In a condition to work anywhere in it with the man who lets it alone. We hope the traffic in liquors will soon be voted out of existence." — Mclrmea Steel Company, Lid., Corry, Pa. •'The efficiency of a man is reduced in exact proportion to the amount of alcohol he drinks. The total abstainer ranks above the moderate drinker in reliability and efficiency in all classes of wqrk nearly as much as the moderate drinker does above the heavy regular drinker."—Follansbee Furnace Company, Follansbee, W. Va. "We give bonuses to abstainers among our foremen. Our aim is tokeep our organization free from liquor and we base this upon its commercial value to us." — Delaware River Steel Company, CheHter, Pa. "Moderate drinking is detrimental to efficiency and reliability."—Penn Steel Castings and Machine Company, Chester, Pa. "Drinking, even moderately, interferes with efficiency and reliability."— Nicetown Plate Washer Company, Nicetown, Philadelphia, Pa. "No one remains a moderate drinker. They either stop altogether or become heavy drinkers. We discharge without mercy men who report for work under the influence of liquor."— Harrisburg Pipe and Pipe-Bending Company, Harrisburg, Pa. "We use every moral force to keep men out of saloons and we never advance any man who drinks."—Wyoming Shovel Works, Wyoming. Pa. We know from general observation that a man's efficiency is reduced 30 to 50 per cent through the use of alcohol."— David Bradley Manufacture lng Works, Bradley, 111. CAUSE OF LOWE8T DEATH RATE. Why has Kansas the lowest death rate in the United States? This question was asked by doubting federal officials after they had investigated the report of W. J. V. Deacon, state registrar of vital statistics, showing that the Kansas death rate was only 9.8 per 1,000. The answer of Mr. Deacon as given to Samuel L. Rogers, directors of the United States bureau of census, gave this reason among others: "Kansas is a prohibition state and has been for a generation, and In Kansas, prohibition really prohibits. I do not mean by this there Is no alcohol consumed In the state, but the absence of the saloon means much to our growing boys and young men, who, In the absence of any bar room, find more healthful pastimes than loafing In an alcohol laden atmosphere. "Another and more Important fact concerning prohibition Is that the wage of the laborer or mechanic is not dissipated, but goes to supply those necessities of food, clothing and housing most essential to the wellbelng of their families and themselves." EDITOR'S CHANGE OF HEART. During the wet and dry campaign of the state of Washington, the Seattle Daily Times worked vigorously for the wets. After one month of prohibition this is what the editor said: "We fought prohibition on economic grounds alone. We believed that in a great seaport city with a population of upwards of 300,000, prohibition would he destructive; that it would bring on economic disaster. We believed that under the license system we had the liquor traflc as well controlled as it could he; we wanted to let it alone and we fought as hard as we could fight. But In. spite of all we could do, prohibition carried and want into effect January 1. Its moral effect has been tremendous. Seattle had 190 saloons and we had an average of 2,300 areats a month for crimes and misdemeanors growing out of liquor drinking. la January we had only 400 arresta and 60 of these were made January 1. aad were the result of hang-orarav from the old year."

Leav- | leg the deck of a Ye seel, they can ' easily locate the enemy and are therej fore of the greatest possible use in ; the events that occur before a battle. "The submarines, too, It has been learned, are of a real and practical service. All officers think they have become a permanent addition to every navy, hut there is some dieagreement as to their general utility. Can a swarm of submarines, for Instance, go to sea, meet a fleet and destroy it? The question cannot be j answered until such an attempt h a s i been made and either failed or suej ceeded. j "I asked one of the highest military j authorities in the country if 1,000 sub- •' marines, along with mines, could safeguard the United States against invasion— the mines to blow up the enemies' ships off shore, if any happened to get that near, the submarines having met the rest and destroyed them before they came within striking distance of our coasts. The answer was that such a measure of protection, an invasion of t h e United States would, to say the least, be made very difficult, "You see, no one can tell a s yet what part the submarines will take In the wars of the future. Their usee are slowly being developed, and we cannot know what they are capable of doing until the French or British fleet meets the fleet of Emperor William. "Also, It has been learned that battle cruisers are required to bring a navy up to its highest efficiency. Cruisers formerly were used as scouts and to hunt down and destroy t h e merchant ships of an enemy. They were swift, but not heavy enough to take a place in the battle line when large vessels were engaged. i A Sea Battle F l r t t "The modern cruiser, however, can hrht, being covered with armor and i armed with large guns. Steaming 30 , knots an hour, it can run all around i a fleet of dreadnaughts and pump shells into them from a long distance and from any angle.

American ships will meet rorelgn ships before there is a battle on shore. If the United States goes to war with any nation in Euorpe or Asia, the tleeta of the two countries will tight for the supremacy of the sea.

Moving troops from one country io another" 1B an Immense undertaking, even when it is safe to do so. "Kour hundred- large ships, for example, would be required to transport an army of 260,000 men from Japan to the United States. Armies traveling by water have to carry their own artillery, ammunition and horses. Japan would not send 400 large troop ships out into the Pacific unless its tleet had fought and defeated our fleet. Nor would Germany or any other country in Europe attempt an invasion of the United States so long as our fleet, decks cleared, was waiting in the Atlantic. "Looking to the East, I can see nc probable danger that is likely to occur ' in the near future, unless the allies are thoroughly beaten by Germany, or unless Germany Is thoroughly beaten by the allies. If the war i t practically a draw a t the end, the efforts of all the great nations to maintain an equilibrium of power will keep them entirely engaged for some time with their own affairs." "Do you believe that a trade war against this country Mill follow the restoration of peace In Europe?" "Such a war will come—there is no doubt of it. Loaded with debt, burdened with taxation, Europe will turn with energy and ferocity to the works of peace. The factories in Europe, ex cept in Belgium, Poland and Northern France, hare not been shut down nor burned. Indeed, new ones have been built. Industrially, save in the place* I have named, Europe is better situ ated now than when the war began. Facta to Be Faced. Things have been speeded up in Great Britain, Germany and France. The factories, old ones and new ones, are running.

MAY 14th NOTE FULL MISSTATEMENTS .Measures Taken by Great Britain Against German Trade Have Coat No Neutral Life, It la Claimed. The Guveruor'b Mother's Day proclamation says in part: The mothers of every country are more important than armies and munitiouii of war. The mothers are the source of civilisation. To oar mothers we owe our patriotism our religion, our holiest aspirations. It is especially fitting in the year nineteen sixteen that we pay tribute to the Mothers of America. Let the boys and. girls and the grown-ups, who are away from home on Mothers' Day, write a letter of gratitude to Mother. Let those who are home meet Mother with a smile, a kiss and a handful of flowers. Recite to her the prayer she taught you at the bedside. Therefore, I, Woodbridge N. Ferris, ask that the people of Michigan set apart the second Sunday in May (the 14th) as Mothers' Day. In obedience to a Resolution by the United States Congress, I ask the people of Michigan to display on this day the United States flag on all government and public buildings, at their homes or other suitable places, "as a public expression of their love and reverence for the Mothers of our country." As far as possible let parents In their homes and both young and old in public meetings discuss the theme of Mother with that enthusiasm and sincerity which charac BAND OF VILLISTAS Kills Porty-Two and Wounding Many Other —No American Casualties Reported London—Declining to comment on the purely American German questions involved in the German reply to the American note on submarine warfare, Lord Robert Cecil, minister of war trade and parliamentary undersecretary for foreign affairs, in behalf of the foreign office gave the Associated Press a statement dealing with the charges against Great Britain and Germany's avowed desire for peace..

EIGHT SINN FEIN REBELS ARE SHOT TO DEATH FAIL TO CHECK THE FRENCH Twe Others Were Given Life Imprisonment by Court Martial They Are in a Fair Way Now to Drive Invadera From Their Strongest Position!. Dublin—It was officially announced that John McBride was shot. He was the eighth leader of the Sinn Fein rebellion to suffer death by sentence of court martial. The sentences of Thomas Hunter and William Cosgrave, who were sentenced to death with Major McBride, were commuted to life imprisonment. Joseph Plunkett one of the leaders in the rebellion, was married an hour before he was put to death to Miss Giffard, sister of Mrs. Thomas - MacDonagh< widow of one of the first rebels who' was put to death after court-martial. James M. Sullivan, former American minister to the Dominican republic, who has been imprisoned In Dublin castle for several days on the charge of having been implicated in the Irish rebellion, probably will be released It is said by officials. Edward L. Adams, American consul in Dublin, has been active in behalf of Sullivan. He has made several trips to the castle and held a number of conferences with high officials. The present favorable attitude of these officials apparently is due to the efforts of Mr. Adams. STATE NEWS IN BRIEF.

Official reports from j Berlin and Paris tell of small gains I by both sides in the region of Dead ! Man hill, they are interpreted as show- | ing a situation decidedly in favor of i the French.

VILLISTAS RAID TWO TEXAS TOWNS KILLING FOUR AMERICAN SOLDIERS AND WOUNDING AND CAPTURING OTHERS. U. S. MEN IN FIERCE BATTLE A Body of Seventy Mounted Mexican Bandits Forded the Rio Grande and Raided Glenn Springs. Alpine, Tex— Villa bandits, some 70 in number, forded the Rio Grande and sweeping 15 mile* inland, on American soil, raided the little settlement of Glenn Springs and attacked a detachment of American cavalry, consisting of nine men of troop A, the Fourteenth cavalry. Three troopers and a little 10-year-old boy were killed, two cavalrymen were wounded and another is missing. He is believed to be a prisoner of the bandits who are now fleeing southward into Coahuila, Mexico. Two American citizens, J. Deemer, and a man named Compton, according to reports received here, were carried across the Rio Grande and reports have it that their throats were cut. A posse of 50 citizens of Marrathon are in pursuit of the Villistas. The missing trooper is Private Roscoe Tyree. The little boy is the son of Compton. He was deaf and dumb and bandits are thought to have killed him because he could not answer their questions. The two wounded troopers, Privates J. Birck and Frank Defree, were brought here badly wounded. Birch's body was filled with small brass pieces of tacks fired from a shotgun. Defree was burned about head and shoulders. In a little adobe house, nine cavalry men made their flight for life against the 70 or more Vlllista bandits at Glenn Springs. A hail of shot poured for more than two hours into the single window of the adobe house, but the cavalry men kept up a steady rate fire in defiant answer. Then the Mexicans' leader ordered fireballs to be thrown on the roof, thickly thatched with candaL abra. The blazing weed tortured the soldiers below and burnt their heads and bodies. Smashing the door, the troopers broke for the open, firing as they ran. Two were shot and killed as they fled. One is missing and it is believed he is dead. Another was killed as he tried to climb through a window. According to the story brought here the Mexican bandits first attacked a store and one or two houses in Boquillas, where they made Deemer and Compton prisoners and then sped 15 miles northward to make their attack on Glenn Springs, which is fringed by rugged hills. At Glenn Springs they wrecked a wax factory belonging to William Ellis, his store and residence, besides one or two other small buildings. SAYS ENGLAND KNEW SECRETS OF GERMAN NOTE An Eminent German Accutes England of Stealing Dlplomatio Code Secrets. New York—"The British government knew the contents of Germany's reply to the United States at least 12 hours before the American state department did.'1 The charge was made here by an eminent German who is close to the German embassy. He went even further, saying: "For many months Downing street, which 1B in possession of the American secret diplomatic code, has had advance information as to the co^ tents of every official and private message exchanged between Berlin and Washington. "Ambassador Gerard in Berlin knows this. Every attache at the American embassy knows it, and the German government knows it. Moreover, it is moderately certain that the American state department knows it, for It has received—not once, but repeatedly — communications frnm Ambassador Gerard urgently requesting the adoption of a new code." As an illustration of how well posted the British government was ox the contents of the German reply to President Wilson's ultimatum on tub. marine warfare, my informant point ed out that slmultsneonsly with the publication in the morning papers Jn this country* there was also published a London dispatch announcing the decision of the British government to make four Important concessions relaxing to a great extent the blockade which plays such a vital part in the German reply. TEACHERS' SUMMER COURSE AT M. A. C. RURAL SCHOOLS AND TEACHERS TO BECOME A GREAT FACTOR IN AGRICULTURAL STUDY. MUST HAVE RIGHT VIEWPOINT What Is to be Done for Teachers at the College by the Faculty During June and July. East Lansing—That there Is a strong movement on foot for a redirection of country life can hardly be gainsaid at this time when farm bureaus, co-operative buying and selling organizations, rural credit societies, and many other similar associations are being fostered to bring more full to the farmer and fanner's wife the just returns of honest toil. It is likewise true that rapid development in this direction can hardly be expected, for an appreciation of the problems and a betterment of conditions will only come as result of a comparatively slow process of education. Of all the agencies that make for education along this line, especially with the farmers of the future, the teachers in the country schools of Michigan stand out as most prominent. The requirement of a recent act of the legislature that agriculture be taught in rural schools brought great consternation to a certain class of rural teachers. Many of these were not country bred and few of them had any sympathies with farm people, let alone any knowledge of their problems. None of the teach, ers felt that they had time for an added subject. But gradually the light has been creeping in on this new problem of education. Teachers who are prepared are finding that the supposed burden is really a lift, that it vital, izes the interest of the students in all other subjects. And it is generally believed that the rural school teaching of the future will turn about agriculture as a center. How natural a development this is for education in a region primarily agricultural!' The wonder is that the vision has been so tardy in coming. The teaching of agriculture has been carried on in rural schools for two or three years now, and yet none of the teachers feel over-confldent of their ability. In fact it is the teachers who have been on the job who best realize their deficiencies. It is freely predicted that during the coming summer several hundred rural teachers—or would-be rural teachers —will avail themselves of the oppor. tunity which the Michigan Agricultural College offers of taking work in the summer session, June 19th to July 28th, designed particularly for their needs. The Agricultural College at Lansipg is admirably fitted to give this instruction with its corps of trained specialists along every line as well as college farms, orchards, forest nurseries, dairy herds, experimental plots, and other necessary demonstration features. The very atmosphere of the state college has an invigorating rural tone. There will be other features in addition to the subject matter presented which will give added value to the summer session. Among these are lectures dealing with phases of rural life, conferences of rural leaders in boys' and girls' club work, courses in rural play, rural organization, and many others. In fact the value of this summer work at M. A. C. is so generally understood that the State Board of Education has author, ized the state normals to give credit for work done at the M. A. C summer BChool in agricultural and other subjects. Not only will the college offer a special course for rural teachers this coming summer, but one will also be given for teachers of agriculture in county normals. This course will be distinctly of college grade and will consider experiments, apparatus, and home project work, and other vital problems to the end that these teachers may better instruct others who are planning to teach in rural schools.

I doubt very much if 1 am the person to give it to you." "Why do you doubt it? Isn't it a part of your job?" "Not always. I am not your conscience keeper, Brouillard. Don't misunderstand me. I may have lived a year longer than you have, but you nave lived more—a great deal more. That fact might be set aside, but there Is another: In the life of every man there is some one person who knows, who understands, whose word for that man is the one only fitting word of inspiration. That is what I mean when I say that I am not your conscience keeper. Do I make it clear?" "Granting your premises—yea. Go on." "I will. We'll paste that leaf down and turn another. Though I can't counsel you, I can still be your faithful^, friend in the East. accuser. You have committed a great «ln, Brouillard, and you are still committing it. If you haven't been the 1 leader In the mad scramble for riches here In this abandoned city, you have been only a step behind the leaders. And you were the one man who should have been like CaeBar's wife, the one whose example counted for most." Brouillard got up and thrust out his band across the desk. "You are a man, Castner—and that is better than being a priest," he asserted soberly. "I'll take back all the spiteful things I've been saying. I'm down under the hoofs of the horses, and it's only human nature to want to pull somebody else down. You are one of the few men In Mirapolis whose presence has been a blessing Instead of a curse—who hasn't had a purely selfish greed to satisfy." Again Castner shook his head. "There hasn't been much that I could do. Brouillard, It Is simply dreadful— the hard, reckless, half-demoniac spirit of this placet There is nothing to appeal to; there Is no room or time for anything but the mad money chase or the still madder dissipation In which t h e poor wretches seek to forget I can only try here and there to drag some poor soul out of the fire at the last moment, and It makes me s i c k - sick a t heart!" "You musn't look at it that way," said Brouillard, suddenly turning comforter. "You have bjfltt % i n g good work and a lot of ft-«MM9> tban any three ordinary m a otvAMMftt up under. I hatrmt « * WpoftH »seing and truly I have And-ril My this: "If I had only yoor courage . . . but it's no I'm in too deep. I can't see any 'farther ahead than a man born blind. There is one end for which I have been striving from the very first, and it is still unattained. I'm past help now. I have reached a point at which I'd pull the whole world down in ruins to see t h a t end accomplished." The young missionary took another turn up and down the room and then came back to the desk for his h a t At t h e leave-taking he said the only helpful word he could think of. "Go to your confessor, Brouillard— your real confessor—and go all the more readily if that one happens to be a good woman^—whom you love and t r u s t They often see more dearly than we do—the good women. Try it; and let me help where a man can help." For a long hour after Castner went away Brouillard sat at his desk, flghtfng as those fight who see the cause l o s t and who know they only make the ruin more complete by struggling on. Cortwright'i guess had found its mark. He was loaded to break with "front feet" and options and "corners;*' In the least speculative period he had bought and mortgaged and bought again, plunging recklessly with the sole object of wringing another han- 4red thooaand out of drying a g a t e * the tlssa whan BtvJd / gale should need It. At first the undertaking Beemed easily possible. But with the drying of the speculative sponge it became Increasingly difficult. More and more he had been compelled to buy and hold until now the bare attempt to unlex 1 woul i have started the panic which was only waiting for some hedging seller to fcre the train. The sweat stood out on his forehead when a pad of telegraph bl; hand and began to WJ Painstakingly he composed ring often to the nott-s in In gr at drops <:*<•. flni. n y drew uiis u; ler his :to a ni ;asage. it referhis fieldwords neatly defined handbook, and printing th in his accurate, clear. writing. When it was finished 'm translated it laboriously into the dt :>artiD nt code. But after the copy was made and signed he did not ring at once for a messenger. Instead, he put the two, the original and the cipher, under a pape'r weight and sat glooming at them searching blindly for some alternative to the final act of treachery which would be consummated in the sending of the wire. Since, by reason of Cortwright's tarnperlngs with the smelter people and the railroad, the "Little Susan" had become a locked treasure vault, the engineer, acting upon his own initiative, had tried the law. As soon as he had ascertained that David Massingale had been given sixty days longer to live, solely because the buccaneers chose to take his mine rather than hia money, Brouillard had submitted the facts In the case to a trusted lawyer officer In the field, he had restated the facts—farts doubtless well known in the department—the probability that congress would Intervene and the hold the opposition was gaining by the bus pension ot the work on the dam. IT the work could be pushed energetically and at once, there was a possibility that the opposition would become dls couraged and voluntarily withdraw. Would the department place the men and the means instantly at hia disposal ? "If I were the honest man J am supposed to be, that is precisely the message I ought to send," he mused reflectively. "It is only as the crooked devil in possession of me will drive me to nullify the effort and make It of no effect that it becomes a crime; that and the fact that I can never be sure that the Cortwright gang hasn't the inside track and will not win out In spite of all efforts. That Is the touchstone of the whole degrading business. I am afraid Cortwright has the inside track. If I could only get a little clear-eighted daylight on the damn able tangle!" H P CHAPTER XX C H Love's Crucible This hope had pulled In two like a frayed cord. Massingale must pay the bank or lose all. Until he had obtained possession of the promissory notes there would be no crevice in which to drive any legal wedge. And even then, unless some pressure could be brought to bear upon the grafters to make them disgorge, there was no chance of Masslngale's recovering more than his allotted two-thirds of the stock; in other words, he would still stand committed to the agreement by which he had bound4*hlmself to make the grafters a present, in fee simple, of one-third of his mine. Brouillard had written one more letter to the lawyer. In It he had asked how David Massingale could be unassailably reinstated in his rights as the eole owner of the "Little Susan." The answer had come promptly and it was explicit "Only by the repayment of such sums as had been actually expended in the reorganization and on the betterments—for the modernizing machinery and improvements—and the voluntary surrender, by the other parties to the agreement of the stock in dispute," the lawyer had written; and Brouillard had Bmiled at the thought of Cortwright voluntarily surrendering anything which was once well within the grasp of his pudgy hands. Falling to start the legal wedge, Brouillard had dipped—also without consulting Massingale—into the mat* ter of land titles. The fLittle 8usan" was legally patented under the land laws, and Masslngale's title, if the mine were located upon government land, was without a flaw. But on a former reclamation project Brouillard had been brought in contact with some of the curious title litigation growing out of the old Spanish grants; and In at least one instance he had seen a government patent Invalidated thereby. As a man in reasonably close touch with his superiors in Washington, the chief of construction knew that there was a Spanish grant involvement which had at one time threatened to at least delay the Niquoia project. How it had been settled finally he did not know; but after the legal failure he had written to a man—a college classmate of his own—in the bureau of land statistics, asking for data which would enable him to locate exactly the Niquola- touching boundaries of the great Coronida g r a n t To this letter no reply had as yet been received. Brouillard had cause to know with what slowness a simple matter of information can oose out of a department bureau. The letter—which, after all, might contain nothing helpful—lingered on the way, and the crisis, the turning point beyond which there could be no redemption rn a revival of the speculative erase, had arrfred, Brouillard took up the draft of the Washington telegram and read It over. He was cooler now, and he saw that tt was only aa tt came from the hand of a traitor, who could and would deliberately wrack the train of erenta tt Might aat hi motion, that H beoasaa a WMttag at th* omMiiitiM i Obeying a sudden impulse, Brouillard thrust the two copies of the telegram under the paper-weight again, sprang up, put on his hat, and left the building. A few minutes later he was on the porch of the stuccoed villa in the Quadjenai road and was saying gravely to the young woman who had been reading In the hammock: "You are staying too closely at home. Get your coat and hat and walk with me up to the 'Little Susan.' It will do you good." The afternoon was waning and the sun, dipping to the horizon, hung like a huge golden ball over the yellow immensities of the distant Buckskin as they topped the final ascent in the steep trail and went to sit on the steps of the deserted home cabin at the mine. For a time neither spoke, and the stillness of the air contributed something to the high-mountain silence, which was almost oppressive. Work had been stopped In the mine at the end of the previous week, Massingale declaring, morosely, that until he knew whose ore he was digging he would dig no more. Presumably there was a watchman, but if so he was invisible to the two on the cabin step, and the high viewpoint was theirs alone. "How did you know that I have been wanting to come up here once more before everything is changed?" said the girl at length, patting the roughly-hewn log step as If it were a sentient thing to feel the caress. "I didn't know it," Brouillard denied. "I only knew that I wanted to get out of Gomorrah for a little while, to come up here with you and get the reek of the pit out of my nostrils." "I know," she rejoined, with the quick comprehension which never failed him. "It is good to be out of it. to be up here where we can look down upon it and see it in its true perspective— as a mere little impertinent blot on the landscape. It's only t h a t after all, Victor. See how the great dam— your work—overshadows it." "That is one of the things I hoped I might be able to see if I came here with you," he returned slowly. "But I can't get your point of view, Amy. I shall never be able to get it again." "You did have it once," she asserted. "Or rather, you had a better one of your own. Has Gomorrah changed it?" "No, not Gomorrah. I could shut the waste-gates and drown the place tomorrow for all that Mirapolis, or anything in it, means to me. But something has changed the point of view for me past mending, since that first day when we sat here together and looked down upon the beginning of the reclamation construction camp—before Gomorrah was ever thought of." "I know," she said again. "But that dreadful city is responsible. It has robbed us all, Victor; but you more than any, I'm afraid." "No," he objected. "Mirapolis has been only a means to an end. The thing that has changed my point of view—my entire life—is love, as I have told you once before." "Oh, no," she protested gently, rising to take her old place, with her back to the porch post and her hands behind her. And then, still more gently: "That is almost like sacrilege. Victor, for love is sacred." "I can't help i t Love baa made a great scoundrel of me. Amy; a criminal, if man's laws were aa closely meshed aa God's." "I can't believe that," ahe dissented loyally. "It is true. I have betrayed my t r u s t Cortwright will make good is all of his despicable schemes Congress will intervene and the Niquoia project will be abandoned." "Tell me," she begged briefly; and. since he waa staring fixedly at the scored slopes of Jack's mountain, ha did not aee that ahe caught her Up between her teeth to atop fta trenv bling. "Aa you know, I had a debt to pay before I could any: 'COBB* ttttlo girt let* go and got married.' 8o 1 baoaaae * atonkartday m Cortvrigfct't power company, knowing perfectly well when L consented that the hundred thousand dollars' wor'h ot stock he gave me waa a bribe—the price of my alienee and noninterference- with hia gTe-edy schemes." "But you didn't mean to keep it; you know you couldn't keep It!" she broke in; and now he did not need to look to know that her \ii>a were trembling piteously. "1 did keep it." She dropped quickly on the utep beside him and a sympathetic hand crept into his. "You kept it until the unhappy day when you gave it to ray father, and he —and he threw it away." She was crying softly, but hia attempt to comfort her waa almost mechanical. "Don't cry about the money. It had the devil's thumb-prints on it, and he merely claimed his own and got it." Then he went on as one determined to leave nothing untold. "Cortwright had bought me, and I served him as only a man in my position could serve him. 1 became a promoter, a 'booster.' with the others. There have been times when a word from me would havo pricked the bubble. I haven't said the word; I am not saying it now. If J Bhould say it I'd lose at a single stroke all that I have been fighting for. And I am not a good loser, Amy." For once the keen, apprehending per ception failed. "I don't understand," she said, speaking as if she were groping in thick darkness. "I mean I don't understand the motive that could—" He turned to her in dumb astonishment. "I thought I had been making it plain as I went along. You wanted something—you needed it—therefore it must be purchased for you. And the curious part of the beaetment is that I have known all along that I waa killing your love for me. If it wasn't quite dead before, it will die now—now that I have told you how I am flinging the last vestiges of uprightness and honor to the winds." "But how?" she queried. "You haven't told me." "With the dam completed before congress could intervene, Mirapolis would, of course, be quite dead and ready for its funeral, But if the Cortwright people industriously insist that the spending of another million or two of government money is only another plum for the city and its merchants and industries, that, notwithstanding the renewed activities, the work will still stop short of completion and the city will be saved by legislative enactment. the innocent sheep may be made to bleed again and the wolves will escape." She shuddered and drew, a little apart from him on the log Btep. "But your part in this horrible plot Victor?" she asked. "It is as simple as it Is despicable. In the first place, I am to set the situation before the department in such a light as to make it clearly a matter of public policy to take advantage of the present Mirapolitan crisis by pushing the work vigorously to a conclusion. After thus turning on the Bpigot of plenty, I am expected to crowd the pay rolls and at the same time to hold back on the actual progress of the work. That is all—except that I am to keep my mouth shut." "But you can't, you can't!" she cried. Then, in a passionate outburst: "If you should do such a thing as that, it wouldn't kill my love—I can't say that any more; but it would kill me—I shouldn't want to live!" He looked around at her curiously, as if he were holding her at arm's length. "Shall I do what you would have me do, Amy? Or shall I do what Is best for you?" The opposing queries were as impersonal as the arm's-length gate. The tears had burned out of the steadfast eyes which were resting, with the shining soul looking out through them, upon the crimsoning snow peaks of the distant TImanyonla. "How little you know the real love!" she said Blowly. He got up stiffly and helped her to her feet and together they stood looki n g down upon the city of the plain, lying now under the curved, sunset shadow cast by the mighty, inbending sweep of the great dam. • • • • • • • Monsieur Poudrecaulx Bongraa, rotund, smiling and reached and waxed to a broad burlesque of second-empire fierceness, looked in vain among hia dinner guests that evening for the chief of the reclamation service, and Brouillard's absence held a small disappointment for the Frenchman. Rumor, the rumor which waa never quiet and which could never be traced conclusively to its source, was again busy with exciting hints of a new era of prosperity about to dawn, and Bongraa had hoped to drop his own little plummet of inquiry into the reclamation service chief.

Look out for dahlias, gladiolus and other rank-growing plants that are likely to be blown down by the wind and stake them. Pick the pansiea and nasturtiums every day if you want to have plenty of bloom. When the lilacs have finished blooming all the seed clusters should be cut away. It is fatal to some plants to fertilize them with rich manures when the ground is very dry. Never allow roses to remain on the bush until the petals fall. If the seed Is allowed to develop on the lilac It generally has few flowers except every other year. The best way to kill weeds is to pull them up by hand. Do not allow them to get ahead of you. Look out for the red bug and other enemies of the rose. An excellent spray for the rose bushes is made of one-half pound of laundry soap melted in hot water to which is added one cupful of kerosene. When thts comes to a boil, use about one part to fifteen parts of water. Lawn clippings make an excellent mulch for bushes, shrubs and large plants. Tea roses like to have the soil about their roots cool and moist. Grass clippings are good for that purpose. Spread the grass over the bed to a depth of two or three inches. As soon as it withers work it into the soil when as it decays it will act as a I fertilizer. Apply fresh clippings ' Makes for Beauty. after the soil is stirred, and let the rain drive it to the roots. Dig a strip 15 or 18 inches wide across the bed or border and then rake it, beginning at the bottom of the trench and fining the soil from t h e subsoil to the top. Continue this throughout the length of the bed, and then you will have worked the soil perfectly. To insure a succession of blooming periods, do not sow all your annuals at the same time, nor your blooming bulbs. Wait two or three weeks. Start cosmos as early as possible, and at the end of April plant in the open two to four feet apart, for they need plenty of room. They want light, rich soil, and can stand a great deal of pinching back to keep them stocky. It is said that the quickest growing hardy vine is t h e Kudzu vine—pueraria Thunbergiana—which often grows 40 feet in a season. It needs winter protection as it sometimes winterkills. Just as soon as the frost is gone, plant the Madeira vine, it is propagated by tubers. It grows rapidly, has thick, waxy leaves, and its flowers— drifts of creamy snow—cover the plant when in bloom, The finest example of what this plant can do was seen on a second-story porch, turning a prosaic second-story fiat porch into a Juliet bowpr of beauty.

Cracked eggs, the practical studies of these investigators have established, are the cause of great trouble and loss to the egg industry from producer to consumer. Every time an egg is handled on the farm or elsewhere It is likely to get shell damage. Occasionally the hen cracks an egg, but that is seldom. The farmer cracks some on the farm, and by the time he has hauled them to the country store or to the shipper investigators find that approximately 4 per cent are cracked and one-tenth of one per cent mashed or leaking. If the country storekeeper rehandles the eggs and hauls them to the egg TRANSPLANTING SEEDLINGS HELPS IN FLOWER GROWING Don't drain the soil before the moisture of winter and spring has drained from ft, so that it will pulverise perfectly. If the soil drops from the spade in moist, soggy lumps, be sure it is not ready to work. As the frost leaves the soil dig in the manure-mulch placed last fall about the shrubs, roses and hardy perennials. If there be no winter mulch about such plants, be sure to apply some kinr1 I fertilizer to them. A good coat of bone meal in the absence of well-rotted manure will serve. Scatter it about the base of the plants As soon as seedlings can be conveniently handled, transplant in pots or boxes; give them plenty of room on all sides. Transplanting carefully by hand is the way professional gardeners do their transplanting, but a forked ftick can be used if carefully handled Shade from the bright sun for a few days -and water carefully. If the weather is advanced, give the newly transplanted plants plenty of air. In this way they are hardened off until they will be able to stand full exposure in the open ground. Care must be exercised with all plants removed fiom conservatories, hotbeds or from plants raised in boxes or pots in the house <z ;•? Excelsior Buffing, Improperly Used, Increases Rather Than Prevents Egg Breakage in the Case and Distributes Pressure Unevenly on the Top Layer. shipper, the number of cracked eggs is Increased to about 6 per cent In addition, three-tenths of 1 per cent are mashed eggs or leakers that must be thrown out. If, however, the country storekeeper sends the cases of eggs to a nearby shipper by local freight, the total of cracked eggs has risen at the end of the journey to approximately 7 per cent, and 1 per cent more are mashed or leaking. The damage when eggs reach the big cities after a haul of 1,000 miles or more will depend upon the quality of the egg packing the way the lot is placed in the car. G00O POULTRY LICE POWDER and the way the railroad hauls the car, especially when switching. When the eggs are shipped in car lots and both shippers and carriers do their work well, transit damage Is kept down to as little as 1 per cent, Including cracked, mashed, and leaking eggs. Approximately one egg in two cases gets maahed or becomes a leaker on the railroad trip. But when eggs are shipped in less than car lota, the transit damage m generally multiplied many times. Cracked Eggs Lower Prices. Because there are so many lightly cracked eggs and because they will bring a lower price if put In cases by themselves, moat shippers have got into the habit of including about 5 per cent of cracked eggs in the casea of supposedly sound eggs. Very often the receiver blames the railroad for all the light as well as the heavy damage in the case; a r ^ since the inclusion of the 5 p^r cent of lightly damaged ege? 1-as L^corne generally known, i+ cr^^uanly is supposed that it i^ Uieae eggs which, being weak, are further damaged in transit. The investigators of the department, however, find that these light cracks, or even dents, if well packed, loaded, and transported, are only one-third more liable to damage than are the sound eggs similarly handled. If the cases are well packed and shipped In well-loaded car lots, the additional liability to damage is only about onefifth of an egg per case. From the viewpoint of transportation alone the 5 per cent of lightly cracked eggs appears to be comparatively unimportant. Cracked Eggs Cause Serious Loss tf Stored. From the viewpoint of cold storage, however, even lightly cracked eggs are of great importance. The Investigators find that about 50 per cent of the err eked eggs are rotten by November, generally because of a growth of mold. Sometimes the moldy crack resting against the filler infects it and the egg in the next cell becomes moldy. Each leaking egg causes about two eggs besides itself to rot. On the other hand, good early spring eggs with sound, clean shells show less than 1 per cent loss from decay by November. In other words, six eggs in every dozen cracked eggs will rot, while only one sound egg in 12 dozen will rot, all other conditions being equal. The cracked egg^are a heavy economic loss. Loss $94 Per Carload. Eggs at the eastern seaboard during the early spring are commonly worth about 20 cents a dozen. Carrying charges, Including insurance, are usually about 2 cents a dozen. Therefore, the nine cracked eggs which are spoiled by November show a total loss, not only of their value when they were stored, which was about 15 cents, but also the carrying charges, or a total of 16½ cents. About ten cracked eggs out of the 19, on the average, will not spoil, but are much lower in grade when coming out of storage than the sound eggs. They will be sold for about 33 per cent less than the sound, good eggs, making, on a 25-cent basis, another loss of 7 cents, or a total loss due to cracked eggs alone of 23¼ cents a case, or about $94 on a carload of 400 cases. This loss of 23½ cents a case, which is believed to be a conservative estimate, quickly mounts up to imposing figures when the vast number of cases of eggs that are stored is taken into consideration. In 45 cold-storage houses alone, according to the report of the American Warehousemen's association, about 3,750,000 cases of eggs were in storage on July 1, 1915. If these cases suffered the average damage, in these warehouses alone there would be a loss t6 t h e country of When Housework Drags Keeping house Is hard enough when welL The woman who h a s a bad hack, blue, nervous spells, and dizzy headaches, has a hard lot, for the family tasks never let up.

Fashion's Demand for Full Skirta Satisfied, With Arrangement That Is Highly Artistic—In Shaped and Plaited Basques. The sketch shows a Beer model which comes under the heading "dressy." This is a very new and original design and here you see the slightly raised waist line. Nearly all the Beer models of this season are immensely wide at the hem of the skirt, and tbe dress I have fuJ tolds and did nut look unduly "bunchy." The coatee which accompanied this costume had one of the new, very full, basques, and this basque was attached to the upper portion of the coat under a band of lovely oxidized steel embroidery. The same embroidery formed a high collar which framed the face and neck and there were hands on the side pockets which appeared on the full skirt. The buttons on the coat were balls of cut steel and the lining was a handsome brocaded satin whirh showed bright orange designs on a dull blue ground. Shaped and plaited basques axe making their appearance on very many of the new tailored coats. In some cases two basques are introduced, one slightly Bhorter than the other, and these are effective on tall figures. Of course a basque coat does not give the long, graceful curve which was a marked feature of last season's models. We mise the princess outline; indeed we miss it so much that some of our leading dressmakers seem inclined to return to it for favorite clients. It is all very well to follow the fashions to a reasonable extent, but when It comes to accepting an outline which takes away from the grace of the figure it is time to call "halt." It really is true that the more exclusive Parisiennes never accept a style which is not becoming to them Individually. They demand, and obtain, modifications which will make the coat or dress thoroughly comfortable and becoming. It is only the weak ones of the earth who allow themselves to be driven this way and that by sensational dressmakers whc care little about beauty but who are always seeking to advertise themselves. The Latest Costume Tailleur In Navy Blue Serge With Embroidery In Oxidized Steel Thread. sketched was no exception to this rule, writes Idalia de VillierB, Paris correspondent of the Boston Globe. At the extreme hem the serge skirt measured from seven to eight yards, but the material was so beautifully soft and supple that it fell in grace- Taupe-Colored Hats. Taupe-colored straw turbans are cropping out in multitudes, these days. The special providence that watches over headgear has evidently decided that taupe hats shall be "the thing" this spring. The hats are in turban or small sailor shapes, excessively chic in line and poise, and there is only a hint of trimming—a smart quill, a plaited ribbon cocade or a bead or leaf ornament. Millinery ribbons are being doubled over strips of a resilient stiffening material, noncrushable and not affected by the dampness, and the new hat bows and cocades are especially crisp and correct thereby.

The improvements in lighting since the days of candles have been so many that no person remembers them all. Now we have indirect lighting, shaded lights and lights aB soft as candles. Anti-glare societies are as common as anti-noise ones and uncomfortable lights are out of fashion, but lamps are still in demand and are made with shaded tops that either cast or relieve shadows.

( A n n a A. Gordon, President N a t i o n a l W. C. T. U. and One of the National Prohibition A m e n d m e n t Commission.) In order to win national constitutional prohibition two-thirda of the members of the United States senate and house of representatives must vote In favor of a bill referring the question to the various states for ratification through their legislatures' When 36 of our 48 etates through a majority vote of their legislatures ratify the measure thus referred it is adopted and becomes a part of the United States Constitution. Such a prohibitory amendment is surely in harmony with the spirit of the Constitution of the United States, which, as its preamble declares, was established "to promote the general welfare and secure the blessing of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. Nineteen commonwealths have already gained the high, dry ground of statewide prohibition. Six states— Nebraska, South Dakota, Montana, California, Idaho and Michigan—vote on the question on November 7. Idaho in the endeavor to change its statutory prohibitory law to constitutional prohibition. The territory of Alaska also closes a prohibition campaign on November 7. If we can win this additional prohibition territory and call a roll of 26 prohibition states we shall be within ten Btates of our national goal. The fact that more than half the people and more than threequarters of the area of this country are under prohibitory laws Is assurance that we are fast nearlng national constitutional prohibition. All states will benefit by the amendment. All will still have power to go Just as far as they desire in prohibiting any phase of the liquor traffic and will have the aid which comes from a national policy. Our greatest difficulty today is the difference in policy between the nation's government and the prohibition states.

KEEPING A GOOD STAND OF RED CLOVER Everywhere! You Go Everywhere They Know : i . - £ . T _ . - 3 C T Alabastine Heavy Second Crop of Clover. The Neatest Yard Hat a Smooth Lawn. THE FRONT YARD By E. VAN BENTHUYSEN. The neatest yard now has a smooth lawn gTass sod kept closely mown, while ^the flowers and shrubbery are restricted to the sides and rear. This n o t only renders the lawn more easily k e p t than where there are flower toeda to mow around and trim, or trees o r shrubs to dodge, but it is really more restful in app3&rance. If there is room for only one shrub, l e t it be Hydrangea paniculata, the magnificent tresses of bloom lasting for weeks. It should be cut back every spring fully half of the previous year's growth. While this may go against t h e will it insures larger blossoms and more of them. A liberal mulching with stable manure Is also in order. Roots may be transplanted in either spring or fall. The Deutzias have extreme haralness, neat form, profusion of bloom and early blossoms to commend them, a n d are worthy of a place in riny collection Several of the Spireas are beautiful with graceful rose colored or white blossoms. While not all of these withstand the late frosts which come In May, just when they are ready to p u t forth their feathery bloom, the beauty of the blossoms when they are perfect atones for an occasional miss. Among June blossoms none are greater favorites than the syringa or mock orange, the flowers being as fragrant as beautiful. While the shrub itself is perfectly hardy, late frosts sometimes kill the buds; and an observing grower gives the rule that there will be orange blossoms v h e n there will be peaches. Calycanthus is a curious shrub, the brownish blossom being odorous of strawberries, yet with so many beautlfu as well as fragrant bloseoms It could scarcely head the list. Purple fringe is an odd plant, the name smoke tree perhaps more accurately describing the appearance afte r midsummer, when the pedicels lengthen, brfc^c/a and bear long plumy hairs, either greenish or tinged with red. The Spigelia is handsome when In bloom,'the tubular blossoms of white, rose or purple being produced in pro fusion. A variety with leaves variegated with gold is especially pleasing. Instead of planting in rows the fancy is now to group the shrubs and the flowers for cutting. Place the taller ones in the rear with the shorter ones in front Arrange that the blooming season shall be prolonged throughout the summer and see that no two specimens with blossoms which do not har monize in color shall be in bloom side by side at the same time. PLANTS FOR NORTH WINDOWS By BETTY PAKE. To make boxes in windows with a northern exposure attractive and cheerful fill them with the following plants: For vines, plant either variegated vlncas or English ivy, or both intermingled. Vincas are very bright, but they will not survive exposure to freezing temperature, while English Ivy will stand unhurt all through the winter. Either of these vines should be planted about one foot apart. The main part of the boxes can be planted with begonias, which can be procured from any florist In various colors, white, pink, red. The boxes, if planted wholly with material of a uniform height, are apt to have an artificial appearance, to prevent which, plants that grow taller and having a more graceful habit should be placed, say, one to every half dozen of the others, and for this purpose few plants equal dracaena terminals. Pansies do fairly well in the shade, and so does Balvia or scarlet sage. If English lvey is used for a vine, it will be found to be of advantage in that when the other plants In the boxes are killed by frost the ivy remains and can be left all winter, with the space taken up by the other plants filled witr small evergreens. i • — y r 7i;\-?f.. • i*'*ft (Prepared by the United States Department of AKrteuhure.) Red clover is commonly seeded with small grain which is called the nurse crop. This nurse crop serves two functions, it keeps the weeds down and it produces a money crop while the clover la making its first year's growth. Whether it is wise to use a nurse crop depends on so many things that it cannot be discussed within the limits of a brief article; it has been abundantly shown, however, that If weeds are kept down by clipping, the clover will make a better growth when sown alone than when with a nurse crop. In dry seasons the nurse crop is pretty certain to cause the death of the clover by taking all the moisture and then leaving the young plants exposed to the heat of a July or August sun when In a weakened condition by reason of the lack of moisture. If a nurse crop is used care should be taken not to seed It too thkkly, since the thicker the grain crop the more certain it is to smother the clover or to take all the moisture and leave the soil dry at harvest time. Of the BmalL grains rye shades the ground the least and oats the most and these crops represent both extremes of desirableness so far as red clover is concerned. The most frequent causes of the death of young clover are the drought and heat to which the plants are subjected upon the removal of the grain crop. The amount of injury caused will, of course, depend on the season. Injury will also be worse on soils deficient in humus since these run together and dry out more than soils having plenty of organic matter. Top dressing the fields with manure during late winter is as good a preventive of this danger as can be suggested. The manure will not only prevent loss of moisture but will furnish plant food for the young clover, making stronger plants, better able to withstand drought. It is also advisable to leave thb grain stubble as long as possible so as to afford shelter to the young plants. If there is a good stand of clover on a field in September and October thore is every reason to expect a good stand in spring, barring, of course, most unusual weather conditions. If, however, the soil Is deficient in lime the plant, though appearing fair in the fall, may lack the vigor to go through even a reasonably mild winter. Two mistakes are often made, and these should be guarded against The young clover should not be pastured closely in the fall, nor should it be allowed to Beed. Last fall, owing to the favorable summer young clover was found blossoming and seeding in many fields. This is bad because it weakens the plants and increases the number of clover-seed insects, the late broods finding these flower heads a fine place in which to lay eggs which hatch into larvae, many of which may live over the next winter. Provided there is lime and phosphorus enough in the land, secondyear clover should give little trouble unless attacked by root borers or oth- VALUABLE FEED FOR SWINE Pigs Receiving Rape Pasture In Addition to Corn Make Big Daily Average Gains, er insects. There are leaf-eating Insects that do damage locally and some fungi have been known to kill whole fields or to reduce yields, but the insects working on the roots probably give more trouble than other insects or than diseases. When a field becomes infested with root-eating Insects there is nothing to do but plow it up. The fact that insects and diseases of all kinds increase in clover fields is one of the best reasons why such a field should not be kept longer than two years. The principles of successful clover growing may be summarized as follows: Give the clover a chance to make a healthy plant by adding lime, phosphorus and potash to soils that need them. In some way add vegetable matter to the soil and keep up the supply by turning under clover often enough. Give the seed a fair chance by placing it in mellow soil and covering it from one-half to one inch deep. If sown with a nurse crop, give the young plants a chance by not seeding the grain crop too thickly, by top dressing with manure if practicable, and by cutting the stubble as high as possible.

BUILDING A POULTRY HOUSE Extreme Open-Front Structure Fur nishes Ideal Conditions—Roosting Closet Desirable. Ominous. The veteran hobo was initiating a new recruit into the mysteries of panhandling. "It's like die. Buddy," be explained. "When one of us 'bos visits a house we puts a mark on de gatepost ter show wot kind of a reception we gits. Den de next guy wot cornea along looks at de mark an' acka accordin'." "What do you do when you don't find no mark on de gate," asked the novice. "In dat case we Aggers dat de last guv wot was dere came out so fast he didn't have time to leave no mark, so we passes de place up." A house with a large area of glass and no muslin has a high moisture content and low temperature, accompanied with 0apid changes. An extreme open-front house furnishes ideal conditions, providing the birds are protected from rain, BDOW and drafts. A house, the front of which contains gome muslin and glass is a very efficient type. Hollow tile construction makes a very desirable house, but it is doubtful whether at the present prices of tile and mason labor the resulting increased cost warrants its use. A roosting closet with double walls is desirable in shed-roof laying houses. The providing of ample means of properly ventilating shed-roof, paper covered houses adds greatly in reducing temperature during spring and summer. Tongued and grooved boards for the outside wall when covered with a layer of building paper are reasonable in cost and supply in a great measure the nonradiating qualities of a double wall.

Lime and Organic Matter Are Named as Necessary Ingredients by Ohio Expert. Prof. Alfred Vivian, head of the department of agricultural chemistry of Ohio State university, defines a perfect soil as "one which contains the ingredients in perfect proportions; sand, to enable it to absorb sir and moisture in proper amounts and to render it warm and friable; clay, to keep it cool, and prevent a too rapid leaching or evaporation of water; lime, to assist in the decay of vegetable matter, and organic matter to retain the best amount of moisture and to furnish material for the various chemteal processes continually going on in good soils." summet.ume Excataons Always In More sheep should be raised The for laaab and motto* fts s i See Cali/WBits ' - fatos 8 orchards _ pasifapYosorife Very-lew fates 3TK* totOXSt-flttjet economy wtt h personal escort.

Drink before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in i t This will flush the poisons and toxins from stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels and cleanse, sweeten and purify the entire alimentary tract Do your inside bathing immediately upon arising in the morning to wash out of the system all the previous day's polBonous waste, gases and sour bile before putting more food into the stomach. To feel like young folks feel; like you felt before your blood, nerves and muscles became loaded with body Impurities, get from your druggist or storekeeper a.quarter pound of limestone phosphate which is inexpensive and almost tasteless, except for a sourish tinge which is not unpleasant Just as soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and freshening, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels. Men and women who are usually constipated, bilious, headachy or have any stomach disorder should begin this inside bathing before breakfast. They are assured they will become real cranks on the subject shortly.—Adv. Samson was the first actor to bring down a house—and he was killed in the fall. AFTER SIX YEARS OF SUFFERING Woman Made Well by Lydia EL Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound. Columbus, Ohio.—"I had almost given tap. I had been sick for six years with female troubles and nervousness. I had a pain in my right side and could not eat anything without h u r t i n g m y stomach. I could not drink cold water at all nor eat any kind of raw fruit, nor fresh meat nor chicken. From 178 pounds I went to 118 and would get so weak at times that I fell over. I began to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and ten days later I could eat and it did not hurt my stomach. I have taken the medicine ever since and I feel like a new woman. I now weigh 127 pounds so you can see what it has done for me already. My husband says he knows your medicine has saved my life."— Mrs. J. S. BARLOW, 1624 South 4th S t , Columbus, Ohio. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound contains just the virtues of roots and herbs needed to restore health and strength to the weakened organs of the body. That is why Mrs. Barlow, a chronic invalid, recovered so completely. It pays for women suffering from any female ailments to insist upon having Lydia £ . Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Skin Muddy?

Design for Combination Garment That W i l l Be Found to Meet all Requirements of Fashion — Suggestions for Trimming. With the incoming of wide skirts and new bodice lines comes a necebsity for new lines In underskirt and corset cover, and this design furnishes the sort of combination garment that Combination Petticoat for New Gowns. meets the requirements of both. The broad band that does not come up to the arms, which furnishes all the bodice of many evening frocks, and with a strap across the shoulder to hold It In place, can be worn over this type of corset cover, where the jeweled or ribbon or shirred shoulder strap may be fastened over ihe strap beneath It, and so not allow any hint of underwear. There Is a tight against thia type of overbodice, but while it reigns this type of corset cover is a necessity, and may be worn with any other sort of dress waist. For nearly all styles of figures a yard and a half will prove ample when purchasing the flouncing for the corset cover, and some figures require less. It is a pretty fancy, that is very common, to make the corset cover of some sort of cross-barred or figured lawn or batiste. This is much cheaper than flouncing of the better class, and can be finished at the top with a narrow beading and edge of embroidery or lace. The top should always have a narrow edge, becaube it would otherwise spoil the flat appearance of the waist worn over It. This new wide skirt is adorned with an embroidered flouncing and a bead ing to match the beading that con nects corset cover and skirt. The same design Is good for the Dolly Varden sateen and silk underskirts that are now In vogue, and these skirts are finished with flounces of material that often contrasts in color and figure, and all are edged with ruching, little ruffles or cordlngs. It is a fancy to make petticoats of this character with plain tops and flowered flounces, but, however they may be constructed, it is the fashion of the season to have very elaborate petticoats, often of Batin with veilings of chiffon and ever so many furbelows and ribbons. FASHION HINTS There is nothing prettier or more comfortable for the little girl's chemisette than white crepe de chine. CheckM taffeta makes a pretty trimming for a dress of plain color. Button trimming is in evidence on suits and frocks. Most utility coats are. long enough to almost cover the dress. Entire dresses are made of silk Jersey for outing wear. Many of the new silk suits have carefully fitted backs. Mouse color is a soft and becoming shade. New silks are in large and striking checks and daring stripes. Flannel blazer jackets are coming into use for street wear with serge skirts. Many new evening dresses have short puff sleeves. NEATNESS EASY TO ATTAIN 8mart Dressing Not as Difficult as It Wat Only a Few Short Years Ago. There was a time when it was far more difficult to look smartly dressed than it is today. That was the time when we wore separate belts, when there was dress braid on our skirts, when we wore separate neckwear. We had to be careful that the braid on our skirts didn't become ripped, to hang in loops of untidiness. We had to see to it that the belt of our skirt didn't sag. We had to see to it that the leather belt we wore exactly coincided with the skirt belt. We had to see to It that the ribbon or muslin collar we wore exactly made connections with the blouse beneath it. Yes, those were, indeed, difficult days. Today neatness counts as much as ever, but there are not so many pitfalls for the woman who would be neat. Neatness of footgear counts more than ever before. The shoes must be spotless, well polished and in good re- T>air. Heels that slant are an outrage on good dressing; moreover, they are decidedly unhealthful. It goes without saying that the hair must be neat. A hair net sometimes produces a stiff effect, hut that is better than a sloppy one. So choose the hair net In winfiy weather, and learn to adjust it becomingly. This year, when our milliners tell us to wear our hats straight on the head, neither tipped to left or right neat hair is more than ever essential. Immaculate gloves count for much In producing a smart appearance. Soiled glove*, ripped gloves or worn gloves are a disgrace. Nowadays, when washable gloves can be bought at almost any pries, it is possible for everybody to have clean glove*. The cotton ones, if clean, always look well—infinitely better than soiled kid ones. And a stitch now and then will keep gloves always well mended. Then there is the handbag. In this case, the more you pay, the better, for an expensive handbag outwears two cheaper ones, and looks better the last day it is carried than the cheap one does after the first few weeks. There are Utile details, like the handkerchief, which ssoukl always be white, that quite as much as some of the bigger things in giving the impression of smartness which the modern woman aims to attain. DRESSY SUIT OF SILK The coat of this suit has a full flare back and sides. Embroidered pockets are Introduced on coat. There *n full flaring cuffs and embroidered lingerie collar. Washing Spats. White spats are only permissible as long as they are really white. To have them look like new again when they have become soiled, tbe broadcloth variety can be washed. Use warm water and good white soap. Wash well, rinse, and don't wring out. Let them hang perfectly wet. and after a few hours they will be dry, smooth, and randy to W e d d e d t o t h e G a m e . Preston was the bt-ene, and the evunt in i-irogretsa was a wedding '1 he "'speaking parta" in the ceremony had all been played, and now bride and bridegroom and their friends were in the veutry putting the mailer into writing. But the clergyman waa not youthful, nor waa he swift. Time passed, and the bridegroom became more and more fidgety. ""You atmm In a great hurry," remarked the officiating cleric, at laxst "Have you a train to catch?" The happy man stood btcck still, and scratched hia head in perplexity. "Well, air," he replied, good-naturedly, "it ain't a train, air, but 1 don't want to be late for t' football match." BAD COMPLEXION MADE GOOD When All Else Falls, by Cuticura Soap and Ointment.

"North of the Somme and northwest of the Oise, patrol engagements were successful for the Germans. "To the left of the Meuse (northwest of Verdun) strong French forces attacked German positions on Dead Man hill and adjoining lines as far as the northern part of Caurettes wood.

London—A Constantinople dispatch received by way of Berlin says that the vice-chief commander of the Turkish army announces that the British garrison at Kut-el-Amara under General Townshend, which surrendered unconditionally, numbered 13.300 men. Major General Charles Townshend, commander of the British forces besieged at Kut-el-Amara, Mesopotamia, by Turkish forces since last December, has surrendered. This information was contained In a British official statement. The following official anouncement was made: "After a resistance protracted for 143 days and conducted with a gallantry and fortitude that will be forever memorable, General Townshend has been compelled by the final exhaustion of his supplies to surrender. "Before doing so, he destroyed his guns and munitions. The force under him consists of 2,1*70 British troops of all ranks and services, and some €,000 Indian troops and their followers." The eventual surrender of General Townshend had been expected since the failure of the forces under LaeuL Gen. Gorringo and Gen. Keary to break through the Turkish position at Sannayyat, just below Kut-el-Amara on the Tigris river and the unsuccessful attempt to send the blockaded army provisions by steamers. It bad been touch and go with the small British force for many days. The position of Kut-el-Amara, which is on a peninsula extending into the Tigris river, made it impossible to send supplies by air, as there was Ao landing place for aeroplanes. Grain, Etc.

The far-sighted statesman and publicist must devote his thought earnestly to the consideration of these questions if we are to escape the extremes which curse the older nations of the world." In the above will be found one of the reasons that the Canadian Government is offering 160 acres of Land free to the actual settler. There is no dearth of homesteads of this size, and the land is of the highest quality, being such as produces yields of from 30 to 60 bushels of wheat per acre, while oats run from fifty to over hundred bushels per acre. It is not only a matter of free grants, but in Western Canada are also to be had other lands at prices ranging from $12 to $30 per acre, the difference in price being largely a matter of location and distance from railway. If one takes Into consideration the scarcity of free grant lands in the United States it Is not difficult to understand why there has been most material advances in the price of farm lands. A few years ago, land that now sells for two hundred dollars an acre in Iowa, could have been bought for seventy- five dollars an acre or less. The Increased price is warranted by the increased value of the product raised on these farms. The lands that today can be had in Western Canada at the low prices quoted will in a less time than that taken for the Iowa lands to increase, have a proportionate increase. In Nebraska the lands that sold for sixteen to twenty dollars per acre seven years ago, find a market at one hundred and seventy-five dollars an acre, for the same reason given for the increase in Iowa lands. Values in these two States, as well as in others that might be mentioned, show that Western Canada lands are going at a song at their present prices. In many cases in Western Canada today, there are American settlers, who realise this, and are placing a value of sixty and seventy dollars an acre on their improved farms, but would sell only because they can purchase unimproved land at sech a low price that ln another few years taey would have equally as sjooi fcnas as taey left or such as their friends have ia 4hs United States. The worth of the crops grown - nl Western Canada is of higher valve than those of the States named, so why should the land not be worth fully as much. Any Canadian Government Agent will be glad to give you ingSF* mation as to homestead lands or w) you can buy.—Advertisement Hint for Nurse, Mrs. Simpson had taken her little daughter out to tea at a friend's house, and all went well till the close of the meal.

For the better part of a fortnight the tidal waves of prosperity, as evinced by increasing speculative values, kept on rolling In, each one apparently a little higher than its immediate predecessor. Then the flood began to subside, though so slowly that at first it was only by a careful comparison of the dally transfers that the recession could be measured. Causes and consequences extraneous to the city itself contributed to the almost imperceptible reactionary tendency. For one, the Buckskin Mining and Milling company reluctantly abandoned its pastime of plowing barren furrows on Jack's mountain, and a little later went into liquidation, as the phrase ran, though the eastern bondholders probably called it bankruptcy. About the same time the great cement plant deprived of the government market by the slackening of the work on the dam, reduced its output to leas than one-fourth of its full capacity. Most portentous of all, perhaps, was the rumor that the placers at Quad Jenai were beginning to ehow signs of exhaustion. It was even whispered about that the two huge gold dredges recently installed were not paying the expenses of operating them. Quite naturally, the pulBe of the Wonder city beat sensitive to all these depressive rumors and incidents, responding slowly at first but a little later in accelerated throbbings which could no longer be ignored by the most optimistic bidder at the "curb" exiseaernr sstlU there was no panic. As the actttittes in local sales fell off and the Jpjsjfjpoiitans themselves were no long- - er crowding the curbs or standing in line at the real estate offices for their turn at the listings, the prudent ones, v^wlth Mr. Cortwright and his chosen tea far in advance of the field, •*"*-ere placing Mlrapolls holdings tempton view in distant markets; placing them and selling them with hUsonry of advertising worthy of the en*y of those who have called themselves the suburb builders of Greater -JNew York.

"Hello, Broulllard!" said the magnate Jocosely, indicating a chair and the nerer-abeent open box of cigars in the same gesture. "You're getting to be as much of a stranger as a man fw*g*»t wish his worst enemy to be." T o n seat for me?" Broulllard broke to tersely. More and more he funding to acknowledge a dull he heard fh#. call of bis master. T e e . What about the dam? Is your going to start up again? Or is it <ttforsjoocr set his tip to keep the Dlunt Inquiry threatened to evoke. To assume that Mr. Cortwright did not know all there was to be known was to credit the incredible. "1 told you a good while ago that i was only the government's hired man,' he replied. "You doubtless have much better information than any 1 can give you." "You can tell me what your orders are—that's what 1 want to know." The young chief of construction frowned first, then he laughed. "What has given you the impression that you own me, Mr. Cortwright? I have often wondered." "Well. 1 might say that 1 have made you what you are, and—" "That's true; the truest thing you ever said," snapped Broulllard. "And, I was going to add, 1 can unmake you Just as easily. But I don't want to be savage with you. Ail I'm asking is a little information first, and a little Judicious help afterward. What are your orders from the department?" Broulllard got up and stood over the Btocky man in the office chair, with the black eyes blazing. "Mr. Cortwright, I said a moment ago that you have made me what I am, and you have. 1 am infinitely a worse man than you are, because I know better and you don't It is no excuse for me that I have had a Motive which I haven't explained to you. because, as I once told you, you couldn't understand it in a thousand years. The evil has been done and the consequences, to you, to me, and to everyone in this cursed valley are certain. Facing them as 1 am obliged to face them, 1 am telling you—but what's the use? You can't make a tool of me any longer— that's all. You must cook your meat over your own fire. I'm out of it" "I can smash you," said the man In the chair, quite without heat. "No, you can't even do that," was the equally coel retort. "No man's fate is in another man's handB." He was moving toward the door, but Cortwright stopped him. "One more word before you go, Broulllard. It is to be war between us from this on?" "I don't say that. It would be awkward for us both now. Let is be armed neutrality if you like. Don't interfere with me and I won't Interfere with you." "Ah!" said the millionaire. "Now you have brought it around to the point I was trying to reach. You don't want to have anything more to do with me, but you are not quite ready to cash in and pull out of the game. How much money have you got?" The cool impudence of the question brought a dull flush to the young man's face, but he would give the enemy no advantage in the matter of superior self-control. "That 1B scarcely a fair question— even between armed neutrals." he objected. "Why do you want to know?" "I'm asking because you have Just proposed the noninterference policy, and I'd like to know how fairly you mean to live up to it A little while back you interfered in a small business matter of mine very pointedly. What became of the one hundred thousand dollars you gave old David Masslngale?" "How do you know I gave him a hundred thousand dollars?" "That's dead easy," laughed the man in the pivot chair, once more the genial buccaneer. "You drew a check for that amount and cashed It, and a few minutes later Maaslngale, whose account had been drawn down to nothing, bobs up at Schermerhorn's window with exactly the same amount In loose cash. What did be do with It—gamble i t r -That is his own affair," Broulllard countered briefly. "Welt the future—next month's future— is my affair. If you've got money enough to Interfere again—dont You'll lose i t the same as you did before. And perhaps 1 sha*nt take the second interference as good-naturedly as I did the first" "Is that all you have to say?" Branfllsrd asked impatiently. "Not quite. I don't believe yon were altogether in earnest a minute ago when you expressed your desire to call it all off. You dont want the Mtrapolis well to go dry right now. not one bit more than I do." "I have been trying pretty hard to make you understand that it is a matter of utter indifference to me." "But you havent succeeded very well; it isnt at all a matter of indifference to you," the magnate instated persuasively. MAs things are shaping themselves up at the preaeat speaking, you stead to lose, not eely the hundred thousand you aqaaadsred en osi David, bat all you've saaie tulasa, I keep in touch—it's my business to keep In touch You've been buying bargains and you are holding thwn — for the simple reason that with the present slowing-dowu tendency tn the saddle you can't bell uud uiaku any money." "Well?" "I've got a proposition to make, that ought to look good to you. What we need Just now in this town Is a little more activity—something doing. IOU can relieve the situation if you feel like it." "How?" "If I tell you, you mustn't go and use It against me. That would be a lowdown welcher's trick. Bui you wou't. See here, your bureau at Washington is pretty well scared up over the pros pect here. It is known In the capital that when congress convener there is going to be a dead-open-and-shut tight to kill this Buckskin reclamation project Very well; the way for you Tallows to win out is to hurry—finish your dam and finish it quick, before congress or anybody else can get action." For a single Instant Brouillard was puzzled. Then he began to understand. "Go on," he said "What 1 was going to suggest la this: You prod your people at Washington with a hot wire; tell 'em now'a the time to strike and strike hard. They'll see the point and if you ask for an increase of a thousand men youll get it Make it two thousand, just for the dramatic effect We'll work right along with you and make things hum again. We'll start up the cement plant and I don't know but what we might give the Buckskin M.. & M. folks a small hypodermic that would keep 'em alive while we are taking a few snap-shot pictures of Mirapolis on the Jump again." "Let me get it straight" said Broulllard, putting his back against the door. "You fully believe you've got us down; that eventually, and before the water is turned on, congress will pass a bill "There Is No 8uch Thing as Good News in This God-Forsaken Valley, Castner." killing the Niquola project But in the meantime, to make things lively, you'd like to have the reclamation service go ahead and spend another million or so in wages that can be turned loose in Mirapolis. Is that it?" "You've surrounded it very neatly," laughed the promoter. "Once, some little time ago, I might have felt the necessity of convincing your scruples, but you've cut away all that foolishness. It's a little tough on our good old Uncle SamueL 111 admit but it'll be only a pin-prick or BO in comparison to the money that is thrown away every time congress passes an appropriation bill. And, putting it upon the dead practical basis, Broulllard, it's your own and only salvation—personally, I mean. You've got to unload or go broke, and you can't unload on a falling market You think about it and then get quick action with the wire. There is no time to lose." Brouillard was looking past Cortwright and out through the plate glass window which commanded a view of the great dam and its network of forms and stagings. "It is a gambler's bet and a rather desperate one." be said slowly. "You stand to win all or to lose all in making i t Mr. Cortwright The town is balancing on the knife-edge of a panic at this moment Would it go up. or down, with a sudden resumption of work on the dsm?" T h e careless thinker would say that H would yell Tire!' and go up into the air so far that ft could never climb down," was the prompt reply "But well have the medicine dropper handy, in the first place, everybody can afford to stay and boost while Uncle Sam is spending his million or so right here in the middle of things. Nobody will want to pun out and leave that cow nnmilked. In the second place, we've s o t a mighty good antidote to use in any sure enough case of tardropbobJa your cjqftsk dea* DUOSV The Man on the Bank Brouillard. walking out of Mr. Cortwrigbt's new offices with his thoughts afar, wondered if It were by pure coincidence that he found Castner apparently waiting for him on the sidewalk. "Once more you are Just the man L have been wanting to see." the young missionary began, promptly making use of the chance meeting "May i break in with a bit of bad news?' "There Is no such thing as good news in this God-forsaken valley. Castner. What's your grief?" "There Is trouble threatening tor the Cortwrlghts. Stephen Masslngale is out and about again, and I was told this morning that he was filling himself up with bad whisky and looking for the man who shot him." Brouillard nodded unsympathetloally. "You will find that there is always likely to be a second chapter in a book of that sort—if the first one isn't con elusive." "But there mustn't be this time." Castner insisted warmly. "We must stop It; it is our business to stop it" "Your business, maybe; It falls right In your line, doeBn't it?" "No more in mine than In vours," was the quick retort. "Am I my brother's keeper?" said the engineer pointedly, catching step with the long-legged stride of the athletic young shepherd of souls "Not if you claim kinship with Cain, who was the originator of that very badly outworn query," came the answer shotlike. Then: "What has come over you lately, Brouillard? You are a friend of the Massingales; I've had good proof of that Why don't you care?" "Great heavens, Castner, 1 do carel But if you had a cut finger you wouldn't go to a man in hell to get It tied up, would you?" "You mean that I have brought my cut finger to you?" "Yes. 1 meant that, and the rest of it. too I'm no fit company for a decent man today, Castner. You'd better edge off and leave me alone." Castner did not take the blunt intimation. For the little distance intervening between the power company's new offices and the Nlquoia building he tramped beside the young engineer in silence. But at the entrance to the Nlquoia he would have gone his way if Brouillard bad not said abruptly: "1 gave you fair warning; I'm not looking for a chance to play the Good Samaritan to anybody—not even to Stephen Masslngale. much less Van Bruce Cortwright. The reason is because 1 have a pretty decent backload of my own to carry. Come up to my rooms If you can spare a few minutes. 1 want to talk to a man who hasn't parted with his soul for a money equivalent—if there is such a man left in this bottomless pit of a town." Castner accepted the implied challenge soberly, and together they ascended to Brouillard's offices. Once behind the closed door, Brouillard struck out viciously. "You fellows claim to hold the keys to the conscience shop; suppose you open up and dole out a little of the precious commodity to me, Castner. Is it ever Justifiable to do evil that good may come?" "No." There was no hesitation in the denial. Brouillard's laugh was harshly derisive. "1 thought you'd say that No qualifications asked for, no judicial weighing of the pros and rons—the evil of the evil, or the goodness of the good— just a plain, bigoted *No.'" The young missionary left his chair and began to walk back and forth on bis side of the office desk. •o<«s»# " Y o u could let tt leak out t h a t , ta s p i t e of ali t h e b u r r a l i anu ruen cm t h e d a m , c o u g r e s s is really going to int e r f e r e before we a r e r e a d y 10 t u r n t h e w a t e r ua," tsaid Brouiuaru. m u s i n g - ly a n d a s if it w e r e only nla t h o u g h t s l i p p i n g into u n c o n s c i o u s s p e e c h "•precisely.

There is a remarkable monotony about the openings of speeches in the house of commons. On Wednesday 43 speeches i not counting brief efforts In the way of interjections) were delivered, and In ^0 cases the speeches began with the first person singular, Only 15 members could think of anything more original. One was Mr. Warwick Brookes, but even his maiden speech began: "In rising to say a few words, I should like," etc. An analysis shows that "I beg" was used four times. So was "I should like." "I am sure" and "I wish" were each the opening of three members. "I would like," "I think" and "I desire" had two each. "I hope." "I do not rise," "I should not," "I want to ask," "I was hoping," "I dc Dot wish," "I have not," "I associate myself." "I agree," "I am quite sure," and "I acknowledge" were each used once.— Manchester Guardian. EXPERIMENTS Teach Things of Value. !

Drinking Postum is a pleasant way out of coffee troubles. A Penn. man says: "My wife was a victim of nervouscess, weak stomach and loss of appetite for years; and although we resorted to numerous methods for relief, one of which was a change from coffee to tea, it was all to no purpose. '"We knew coffee was causing the trouble but could not find anything to take its place until we tried Postum. Within two weeks after she quit coffee and began using Postum almost all of her troubles had disappeared as if by magic. It was truly wonderful. Her nervousness was gone, stomach trouble relieved, appetite Improved and. above all, a night's rest was complete and refreshing. "This sounds like an exaggeration. as it all happened so quickly. Each day there* was improvement, for the Postum was undoubtedly strengthening her. Every particle of this good work is due to drinking Postum in place of coffee." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Postum comes In two forms: Postum Cereal—the original f o r m - must be well boiled. ISc and 25c pkgs. Instant Postum—a soluble powder— dissolves quickly in a cup of hot water, and, with cream and sugar, makes a delicious beverage instantly. 30c and 60c tin*.

House of Representatives, the Capital, Washington, April L'O.—Sharply ting Germany fur its use of subnea against merchant vessels, ident Wilson yesterday, before a Joint session of congress, issued public notice to the world that unless that government changes its methods the United States will have no choice but to sever diplomatic relations. "The history in the making," was witnessed by one ot the largest gatherings that has ever been jammed into the historic chamber of the house of representatives. Every single inch of available space was occupied, while literally thousands were turned away. There was no questioning the seriousness of the president's position. His voice, somewhat husky, penetrated every corner of the room, and the message was emphasized with an expression that showed its author was tearful of the outcome. That serious neas was shared by the audience, the usual applause given the president's utterances being absent. The message in every sense was an Ultimatum. True, it contained no time limit within which reply c;ust be made. But it flatly Insisted that the German submarine warfare has reached the stage when this government will no longer tolerate it. The German explanations, previously made, have been accepted in good faith, the president said, in the hope that that government would finally be able to so order and control the acts of its naval commanders as to square Its policy with the position of humanity as embodied in the "law of nations." The United States has been willing to wait, the president said, "until the significance of the fact became absolutely unmistakable and susceptible of but one interpretation." That point, he said, has "now unhappily been reached." Text of President's Address. Following is the complete text of the president's address: "Gentlemen of the Congress: A situftttatB has arisen in the foreign relations Of the country of which It is my • ptsfn duty to inform you very frankly. * "It will be recalled that in February, 1915, the Imperial German government announced its intention to treat the waters surrounding Great Britain and Ireland as embraced within the seat of war and to deBtroy all merchant ships owned by its enemies that might be found within any part of that portion of the high seas, and that It warned all vessels, of neutral as well &s of belligerent ownership, to keep out of the waters it had thus prescribed, or else enter them at their peril. The government of the United States earnestly protested. It took the position that such a policy could not be pursued without the practical certainty of gross and palpable violations of the law of nations, particular ly if submarine craft were to be employed as its instruments, inasmuch as the rules prescribed by that law. rules founded upon principles of humanity and established for the protection of the lives of n on combatants at sea could not in the nature of the case be observed by such vessels. It based Its protest on the ground that persons of neutral nationality and vessels of neutral ownership would be exposed to extreme and intolerable risks, and that no right to close any part of the high seas against their use or to expose them to such risks could lawfully be asserted by any belligerent governm e n t The law of nations in these matters, upon which the government of the United States based its protest Is not of recent origin or founded upon merely arbitrary principles set up by convention. It Is based, on the contrary, upon manifest and imperative principles of humanity and has long been established with the approval and by the express assent of all civilised nations. [ Protest Was Disregarded. •"Notwithstanding the earnest protest of our government, the Imperial German government at once proceeded to carry out the policy it has announced. It expressed the hope that the dangers involved, at any rate the dancers to neutral vessels, would be reduced to a minimum by the Instructions which it had issued to Its submarine commanders, and assured the government of the United States that it would take every possible precaution, both to respect the rights of neutrals and to safeguard the lives of noncom batants, "What has actually happened in the year which has since elapsed has shown that those hopes were not Justl Bed, those assurances insusceptible of being fulfilled. In pursuance of the policy of submarine warfare against t b e commerce of its adversaries, thus announced and entered upon by the tsapertal German government in despite of the solemn protest of this government, the commanders of German undersea vessels have attacked merchant ships with greater and great er activity, not only upon the high Beas surrounding Grwat Britaiu and Ireland, but wherever they encounter them, in a way that has grown more and more ruthless, more and more indiscriminate as the months have gone by, less and less observant ot restraints of any kind; and have delivered their attacks without compunction against vessels of everj nationality and bound upon every s*ort of errand. Vessels of neutral ownership, bound from neutral port to neutral port, have been destroyed along with vessels of belligerent ownership, in constantly increasing numbers. Sometimes the merchantman attacked has been warned and summoned to surrender before being tired on or torpedoed; sometimes passengers or crews have been vouchsafed the poor security of being allowed to take to the ship's boats before she was sent to the bottom. But again and again no warning has been given, no escape even to the ship's boats allowed to those on board. What this government foresaw must happen has happened. Tragedy has followed tragedy on the seas in such fashion, with such -attendant circumstances, as to make it grossly evident that warfare of such a sort, if warfare it be, cannot be carried on without the most palpable violation of the dictates alike of right and of humanity. Whatever tbs disposition and intention of the Imperial German government, it has manifestly proved Impossible for it to keep such methods of attack upon the commerce of Its enemies within bounds set by either the reason or the heart of mankind. As to Armed Merchantmen. "In February of the present year the imperial German government informed this government and the other neutral governments of the world that it had reason to believe that the government of Great Britain had armed all merchant vessels of British ownership and had given them secret orders to attack any submarine of the enemy they might encounter upon the seas, and that the Imperial German government felt Justified In the circumstances in treating all armed merchantmen of belligerent ownership as auxiliary vessels of war, which it would have the right to destroy without warning. "The law of nations has long recognized the right of merchantmen to carry arms for protection and to use them to repel attack, though to use them, in such circumstances, at their own risks; but the imperial German government claimed the right to set these understandings aside in circumstances which it deemed extraordinary. Even the terms in which it announced its purpose thus still further to relax the restraints it had previously professed its willingness and desire to put upon the operations of Its submarines carried the plain Implication that at least vessels which were not armed would still be exempt from destruction without warning and that personal safety would be accorded their passengers and crews; but even that limitation, if It was ever practicable to observe It. has In fact constituted no check at all upon the destruction of ships cf every sort. "Again and again the imperial German government has given this gov eminent its solemn assurances that at least passenger ships would not be thus dealt with, and yet It has again and again permitted its undersea commanders to disregard these assurances with entire impunity. Great liners like the Lusitania and the Arabic and mere ferry boats like the Sussex have been attacked without a moment's warning, sometimes before they had eve-n become aware that they were in the presence of an armed vessel of the enemy, and the lives of noncombatants, passengers and crew, have been sacrificed wholesale, in a manner which the government of the United States cannot but regard as wanton and without the slightest color of Justification. No limit of any kind has In fact been set to the indiscriminate pursuit and destruction of merchantmen of all kinds and nationalities within the waters, constantly extending in area, where these operations have been carried on, and the roll of Americans who have lost their lives on ships thus attacked snd destroyed has grown month by month until the ominous toll has mounted into the hundreds. Sussex s Lste Example. "One of the latest and most shocking instances of this method of warfare was that of the destruction ot the French cross-channel steamer Suasox. It must stand forth, as the sink tag of the steamer Lusitanls did, as so sinfularly tragical and unjustifiable as to constitute a truly terrible example of the inhumanity of aubma rine warfare as the commanders of German vessels have for the patsi twelve months been conducting it. If this instance stood alone. &ome explanation, some disavowal by the German government, some evidence of criminal mistake or wilful disobedience oa the part of the commander of the vessel that bred the torpedo might be sought or entertained; but unhappily it does not stand aioue. Recent events make the conclusion inevitable that it is only one instance, even though it be one of the most extreme and distressing instances, of the spirit and method of warfare which the imperial German government has mistakenly adopted, and which, from the first exposed that government to tb£ reproach of thrusting all neutral rights aside in pursuit cf its immediate objects. 'The government of the United States has been very patient. At every siage or this distressing experience of tragedy after tragedy in which its own citizens were involved It had sought to be restrained l'rom any extreme course of action or of protest by a thoughtful consideration of the extraordinary circumstances of this unprecedented war and actuated in all it said or did by the sentiments of genuine friendship which the people of the United States have always entertained and continue tc entertain toward the German nation. It has, of course, accepted the successive explanations and assurances of the imperial German government as given in entire sincerity and good faith., and has hoped, even against hope, that it would prove to be possible for the German government so to order and control the acts of its naval commanders as to square Its policy with-the principles of humanity as embodied in the law of nations. It has been willing to wait until the significance of the facts became absolutely unmistakable and susceptible of but one interpretation. "That point has now unhappily been reached. The facts are susceptible of but one interpretation. The imperial German government has been unable to put any limit or restraints upon its warfare against either freight or passenger ships It has therefore become painfully evident that the position which this government took at the very outset is Inevitable, namely, that the use of submarines for the destruction of an enemy's commerce Is of necessity, because of the very character of the vessels employed and the very methods of attack which their employment of course involves, incompatible with the principles of humanity, the long-established and Incontrovertible rights of neutrals, and the saored immunities of non-combatants. Virtual Ultimatum Sent. "1 have deemed it my duty, therefore, to say to the Imperial German government that If it is still its purpose to prosecute ruthless and Indiscriminate warfare against vessels of commerce by the use of submarines, notwithstanding the now demonstrated Impossibility of conducting that warfare In accordance with what the government of the United States must consider the sacred and indisputable rules of international law and the universally recognized dictates of humanity, the government of the United States is at last forced to the conclusion that there is but one course it can pursue; and that unless the imperial German government should now Immediately declare and effect an abandonment of its present methods of warfare against passenger and freight-carrying vessels this government can have no choice but to sever diplomatic relations with the government of the German empire altogether. "This decision I have arrived at with the keenest regret; the possibility of the action contemplated I am sure all thoughtful Americans will look forward to with unaffected reluctance But we cannot forget that we are in some sort and by the force of circumstances the responsible spokesman of the rights of humantty. and that we cannot remain silent while those rights seem In process of being utterly swept away In the maelstrom of this terrible war. We owe it to a due regard for our own rights as a nation, to our sense of duty as a representative of the rights of neutrals the world over, and to a Joint conception of the rights of mankind to take this stand now with the utmost solemnity and firmness Ml have taken It, and taken it in the confidence that it will meet with your approval and support. All Boherminded men must unite In hoping that the Imperial German government, which has in other circumstances stood as the ch cm pi on Df all that we are now contending for in the Interest of humanity, may recognize the Justice of our demands and meet them in the spirit in which they are made."

A colored physician was called as a witness for the other side to establish certain medical evidence. This colored man had come to New Albany with a diploma written in some foreign language, and no one ever bad taken the trouble to determine whether it was genuine, Stotsenburg said in telling the story. Mr. Stotsenburg cross-examined the witness thus: "You say you are a physician—a medicine physician?" "Yea, sir," replied the colored man. "You know all about diseases—all kinds?" "Yes, sir, yes. sir. I knows that disease, sir," "Well, then, Just explain to this Jury what that disease it," Stotsenburg ordered.

People who would discharge a clerk If he did not work the year round will often cultivate a garden at no little trouble and expense and then allow the soil to lie idle from the time the first crop matures until the end of the season. Where a two or three crop system Is used in connection with vegetables adapted to small areas, a space no larger than 25 by 70 feet will produce enough fresh vegetables for a small family.

Half an acre properly cultivated with a careful crop rotation may easily produce 1100 worth of various garden crops In a year. When to Work Soil. If the garden was not broken In the fall. It should be plowed in the spring as soon as the frost is out of the ground. Small areas may be worked with a spade, pushing the blade in to its full depth and turning the soil to break up the clods. Heavy soils should never be worked when wet. Overzealous gardeners, ready to seize the first warm spell as a favorable opportunity to go out and work the heavy clay soil before it Is dry, are not only wasting their energy but are doing a dam- PREPARE SEEDBED FOR OATS Not Generally Necessary to Plow Land Before 8owlng—Disk Harrow Is Recommended. Oats usually follow a cultivated crop such as com or potatoes; hence It is not generally necessary to pldw the land before sowing. Oats do well on fall-plowed land, but if the land baa not been plowed in the fall better yields are usually produced from sowing In a seedbed made by diski n s and harrowing than in one mads by spring plowing. Early seeding for oats la very desirable. As a gfeod seedbed can be made much more quickly with the disk harrow than with the plow on land that was In a cultivated crop last year, the saving In time is an advantage. Two disking* and one harrowing with the spike-toothed harrow will put clean land In good shape for sowing with the drill. Oats grow best In s seedbed that has 2 or 3 Inches of loose surface soil. but which Is firm below that depth. This Is another reason why disking is • 9 b t pi«fsffr«4 to spring plowing, tor age to the soil troin wtiich 11 will utke yearb for ii 10 recover To deierrniue when heavy soils are ready for plowing, a handful of earth should be collected from the surface and the fingers tightly clobed ou it. If the ball of compacted earth la dry enough for cultivation li will fall apart when the hand Is opened. A garden apot near the houte la often more desirable Lhan a plot which is In better tilth but located at an Inconvenient distance. A garden which is near the house will receive many a spare hour of care from adults and children which would otherwise be wasted. Where there is ample room for the selection of a garden site, the alope of the land should be carefully considered. A gentle tslope toward the South is most desirable for growing early crops, while it Is a decided advantage to have the plot protected on the north and northwest by either a hill, a group of buildings, or a board fence. Drainage of the garden is of great Importance. The land should have sufficient fall to drain off aurplus wa ter during heavy raina and yet not be so steep that the soil will be washed or gullied. The surface should be nearly level so the water will not stand In hollows. Where the natural slope of the land does not provide sufficient natural drainage, ditches may be dug or a tile drain put in. Thia will prevent waste water from the adjoining land from washing over it. How to Fertilize. The soil in the average back yard ia not only lacking in plant food but also has been packed until It is bard and unyielding. To loosen up such soil and make it suitable for garden produce requires that careful attention be given to its preparation. After spading the inclosure thoroughly, the upper three inches should be made fine with the use of hoe and rake Stones and rubbish should be removed and clods of dirt broken. The surface should be made even and as level as possible, it may then be marked off for planting in conformity with the general plan of the garden. Barnyard or stable manure is the best fertilizer because it furnishes both plant food and humus. An application at the rate of from 20 to 30 tons to the acre of well-rotted manure is very satisfactory. This should be applied after plowing or working with a spade, and distributed evenly over the surface and later worked in with a hoe and rake. On many soils it is advisable to apply commercial fertilizer, especially phosphate, in addition to the manure. An application of 300 to 600 pounds of acid phosphate to the acre is usually sufficient If additional potash is needed, which is often the case with sandy soils, thia may be economically supplied in the form of wood ashes If the wood ashes are unleached they should be distributed over the garden, using 1,000 pounds to the acre. If they have been wet, or leached, 2,000 pounds should be used. An application of 100 pounds to the acre of nitrate of soda may be used in the spring to start the plants before the nitrogen in the manure has become available. Small Garden Plan. In the plan illustrated all the vegetables named are planted In rows across from the inside lateral rows of strawberries. As rapidly as each kind of peas matures and the crop ia over, kale is planted in its pface. The ground to be used for tomatoes is first planted with onion sets, and these onions are used as rapidly aa needed. When the time comes to set out the tomatoes, some of the onions are dug to make space for the tomato plants. When the tomato crop Is over, the ground is occupied by spinach aa the third crop. Spinach Is also planted as soon as the bulb onions from the side are gathered. The beans, carrots, and peas are succeeded by late cabbage, and between the rows of late cabbage "potato-onion" sets are planted. Late beans are planted between the rows of parsnips after the radishes and lettuce have been gathered. there Is not time for plowed land to settle before the seed Is sown. 8till another reason why the disk is better is that a field can be plowed, and the cheaper way of doing a Job should always be chosen If it gives just as good results as the more expensive way. DAIRYING ON A LARGE SCALE Number of Unpleasant Surprises Are In Store at Start—Start With Few Cow* and Grow Up. The man who starts dairying on a large scale by buying the whole dairy herd is in for a number of unpleasant surprises. The best way to get into the dairy business is to grow into it, starting with a few cows and selecting and culling as experience dictates. It is a slow way to be sure, but It is a safe one. Only those who have been through the mill know how hard It is to set out and buy good milch cows. The endeavor of every dairyman is to sell off his poorest animals and keep tbe best.

ONE OF GERMANY'S STRATEGISTS DIES DANGER IN SELECTING SEED How to Secure Good Seed and Why That Alone Will Save Lo**c« of Many Thounanda of Dollars. Eaut Lansing—With the planting beason but a few weeks away, Michigan farmers are confronted by one of the mobt aerioua corn-Beed shortages ever felt in this state. The situation ii^ such, according to farm crop authorities of the Michigan Agricultural college, that looses which may run into hundreds of thousands of dollars are seen if extraordinary precautions are not exercised by farmers in the selection of seed for the coming season"« crop, in view of conditions aa they have been found to prevail throughout the state, the college is issuing a "first aid" bulletin to advise agriculturists as to measures most likely to be of value in minimizing the seed corn danger. The bulletin, which has ben given out is based on information gathered during the course of a state-wide survey of the seed corn situation. "On account of the continued cold BARON VON DER GOLTZ. Athens, via Rome—It is reported here that the death of Field Marshal von der Goltz was atended by most mysterious circumstances and was not due to natural causes.

AWAITS U-BOAT ANSWER G E R M A N Y W A N T S N O B R E A K W I T H A M E R I C A O V E R SUBM A R I N E I S S U E . PREVENT BREAK AT ANY COST Lull Already Noted in U-Boat Activltica Since Wilson'* Ultimatum to Germany. Berlin, via Copenhagen to London— The imperial chancellor, Dr. von Bethman-Hollweg, returned to Berlin which would seem to justify the aasumption that the empire's responsible leaders at Great Headquarters have finished -consideration of the American note and reached a decision concerning Germany's reply. The chancellor's return, it is understood, waa not expected until Tuesday; hence a general decision appears to have been reached earlier than looked for. Berlin, via Amsterdam—Germany's ans-wer to President Wilson's virtual ultimatum will be dispatched to Wash, ington, at the earliest in the middle, possibly not before the end of the ensuing week. Of all the signs and hints and omens with regard to the outcome of the crisis between the two countries, this very delay of Germany's answer is most significant. It points clearly to a back-down on the part of the German government, a dignified and gradual but none the less complete, accession to America's demand that the lives of American citizens must be safeguarded. Were Germany courting a break with the United States; were she convinced that there is "not once scintilla of justification for the American demands"—as some individual, hotheaded editors have been asserting— then there would have been flashed across the cable inside of 24 hours after the presentation to the foreign office of the American note a brief, courteous reply telling the American government in yo many words, that what it asks is impossible to grant and that this is Germany's last word and closes the incident. Even the kaiser's absence from Berlin would not have prevented that. The laat paragraph of President Wilson's note is clear enough to be put into one or two code words and convey it through the special wire running from the foreign office to the kaiser's desk at general headq- uarters, What is really coming to pass in Germany at this moment Is a feverish preparation for a submission to American demands—not, to be sure, for a complete abandonment of the submarine warfare, but of that which is asked in Mr. Wilson's closing paragraph, "a declaration and a putting into effect of an abandonment of its present methods of submarine war. fare against passenger and freightcarrying vessels." TR00PST0 REMAIN IN MEXICO General Scott to Remain On Border With Funston. Washington—For the present, at least, the American forces are to remain In Mexico. Announcement to this effect was made by Secretary of War Baker following a conference with President Wilson. The president approved a recommendation from Major General Funston, indorsed by Major General Scott, chief of staff that there should be a redisposltion of the forces of General Pershing pending diplomatic negotiations now in progress between the state department and the de facto government of Mexico. The secretary said: "General Funston recommends a redisposition of the forces in Mexico for the purpose of recuperation and pending opportunity for further cooperation with the force of the de facto government of Mexico. His recommendation has been approved and Its execution left to his discretion." The conterence between the president and Secretary Baker followed a long vigil kept at the war department by the latter, pending the receipt and deciphering of a lengthy code dispatch from General Scott, who went to San Antonio to confer with General Funston, TELEGRAPHIC FLASHES Lyons, Franca — The Russian troops which arrived at Marseilles for service with the French on the western front, passed through here on their way northward.

So many Americans now have per* eonal knowledge of Canada that false - reports concerning this country are being continually corrected by Amsfw " leans themselves who know the factH and who are too fair-minded to let #>* false statement go unchallenged, case in point arises out of a statem supposed to be made by a resident j £ * Alberta, and published recently in flbs>^ Spokesman-Review, of Spokane, Ij^ which the condition of settlers in th|s> country was painted in a very bad way indeed. The writer of t h i r attack on Canada refused to let his name be known, so it can be taken for what it is worth, but Mr. S. L. Wallace, of N 4723 Crestline, Spokane, who lived for some years in Western Canada, came to the defense of the country in the following letter which was published in the Spokesman-Review of February 11, 1916: — "To the Editor of the Spokesman-Review: "In Sunday's Spokesman-Review was a letter from a man in Alberta to the chamber of commerce, asking that something be done to keep Americans from going to Canada, and saying that that government was run by the railroads, banks and manufacturers; t h a t once a man got there he never could get away. Had this man published that letter over his own signature there is no doubt but he could get out of Canada. No country will do as much to help a man to get on his feet, if he tries to help himself, as Canada. I know of the government helping people to provisions, feed, seed grain and fuel, and charging only cost of delivery to t h e nearest town and 6 per cent. What more could a man ask? I lived five years in Southern Saskatchewan and earned a patent to 320 acres of as good land as I ever saw. I have raised over 80 bushels of oats on sod, 40 bushels of wheat, and 20 of flax to the acre. Until I lost my health I never was better satisfied anywhere. I had my land rented this last year for one-third. It brought me almost $8.50 per acre, or $1,143.91 for 135 acres. This man says he loves the land his fathers died for. So do I, and I love the land that gave me my home. "S. L. WALLACE."

It was not more than an eighth of an inch thick but of such superlative quality that it rang like a silver bell even to the tap of a finger nail. A far more murderous fragment of shivered metal, which J kicked into a few minutes later, was a piece of shrapnel casing, and there is no doubt that the casualties from antiaircraft gun projectiles are very considerable:— Lewis R, Freeman, in Atlantic Monthly.

"There's one thing—and I've got to spit It out before it's everlastingly too late. See here, Victor Br'uillard—Amy likes you—thinks a heap of you; a plumb blind man could see that. But say, that little girl o' mine has just natchurly got to have a free hand when It comes to pairln' up, and she wont never have If she finds out about this. You ain't allowin' to use It on her, Victor?" Brouillard laughed. "I'll make a hedging bet and break even with you, Mr. Massingale," he aaid. "That check is drawn to my order, and I have Indorsed It Let me bave it again and I'll get the cash for you. In that way only the two of us need know anything about the transaction; and if I promise to keep the secret from Miss Amy, you must promise to keep it from Mr. J. Wesley Cortwright Will you saw It off with me that way?—until you've made the turn on the ore sales?" David Massingale shook hands on it with more gratitude, colored this time with a hearty imprecation. "Dad burn you, Victor Br'uillard, you're a man— ever' single mill-run of you!" he burst o u t But Brouillard shook his head grarely. "No, Mr. Massingale, I'm the little yellow dog you mentioned a while back," he asserted, and then he went to get the money. Left alone In the small retiring room of the bank where the business had been transacted, David Massingale look the sheaf of bank notes from his pocket with trembling hands, fondling it as a mlBer might Twice the old roan made as If he would turn toward the door of egress, and the light in his array-blue eyes was the rekindling flame of a passion long denied. But In the end he thrust the tempting sheaf back into the inner pocket and went resolutely to the cashier's count e r window, finding Schennerhorn, the Ident sitting at the cashier's desk. %.&'xe come to take up them notes o' e with John Wes,' name on 'em," slngale began, pulling out the thick sheaf of redemption money.

"You've borrowed to meet these notes?" queried the president look* lag op quickly. "That wont do, Mr. Massingale; that wont do at alL We « a n t afford to lose an old customer that way. What's the matter with our money? Doesnt U look good to you any more?" Massingale stammered out something about Cashier Hardwick's peremptory demand of a few hours earlier, bet be was not permitted to-falsa. "Of course, that is an right from Hardwick's point of view. He was merely looking out for the matnriag How moob more time will yon to eaabse yom t# got your shipments? Sixty 'days? Ail right, you needn't make out new notes; I'll indorse the extension on the back of these, and I'll undertake to get Cortwright's approval myBelf. No; not a word, Mr. Massingale. As long as you're borrowing, you must be loyal and borrow of us. Good afternoon. Come again when we can help you out." David Massingale turned away, dazed and confused beyond the power of speech. When the mists of astoundment cleared he found himself in the street with the thick wad of bank notes atlll in his pocket Suddenly, out of the Umbo into which two years of laborious discipline and self-denial had pushed it stalked the demon of the ruling passion, mighty, overpowering, unconquerable. The familiar street sights danced before Masslngale's eyes, and there was a drumming in his ears like the fall of many waters. But above the clamor rose the Insistent voice of the tempter, and the voice was at once a command and an entreaty, a gnawing hunger and a parching thirst "By gash! I'd like to try that old system o' mine jest one more time!" he muttered. "All it takes is money enough to foller it up and stay. And I've got the money. Besides, didn't Br'uillard say I was to get an extension If I could?" He grabbed at his coat to be Bure that the packet was still there, took two steps toward the bank, stopped, turned as if In the grasp of an invisible but Irresistible captor, and moved away, like a man walking in his sleep, toward the lower avenue. It was the doorway of Haley's place, the Monte Carlo of the Nlquola, that finally halted him. Here the struggle was so fierce that the bartender, who knew him, named It sickness and led the stricken one to a card table in the public bar-room and fetched him a drink. A single swallow of whisky turned the scale. Massingale rose, tossed a coin to the bar, and passed quickly to the rear, where a pair of balse doors opened silently and engulfed him. CHAPTER XVII The Abyss It was at early candle-lighting in the evening of the day of renewed and unbridled speculation in Mlrapolis "front feet" that Brouillard, riding the piebald range pony on which he had been making an Inspection round of the nearer Buckskin ditchers' camps, topped the hill in the new, high-pitched road over the Chlgrlngo shoulder and looked down upon the valley electrics. Brouillard let the pony set Its own pace on the down-hill lap to the finish, freshened himself at his rooms In the Nlquola building, and went to the Metropole to eat his dinner with Marray Grislow as his vis-a-vis. The busting throngs in the Metropole cafe and lobby annoyed him, and even Onslow's quiet sarcasm as applied to the day's bubble-blowing failed to clear the air. At the club there was the same atmosphere of unrest; an exacerbating overcharge of the suppressed activities Impatiently waiting for another day of excitement and opportunity. Corner lots and the astounding prices they had commanded filled the air In the lounge, the billiard room and the buffet, and after a few minutes Brouillard turned his back on the hubbub and sought the quiet of the darkened building on the opposite side of the street He was alone in his office on the sixth floor and was trying, half absently, to submerge himself in a sea of desk work when as distinctly as if she were present and at his elbow, he heard, or seemed to hear, Amy Massingale say: "Victor, yon said you would come if I needed you. I need yon now." Without a moment's hesitation he got up and made ready to go out. The Massingale town house was one of a row of stuccoed villas fronting on the main residence street, which beyond the city limits became the highroad to the Quadjenai bend and the upper valley. Brouillard took a cab at the Metropole, dismissed It at the Tills gate, and walked briskly up the path to the bouse, which was dark save for one lighted room on the second floor— the room tn which Stephen Massingale was recovering from the effects of Van Brace Cortwrigbt's pistol shot Amy Massingale was on the porch —waiting for him; as be fully believed ttatil bar greeting snmdently proved bar surprise at seeing baa, "You. Victor?" she said, coming quickly to meet him. "Murray Grislow said you had gone down to the Buckskin camps and wouldn't be back for two or three days!" "1 changed my mind and came back How is Steve this evening?" "He is quite comfortable, more comfortable than he has been at all since the wound began to heal I have been reading him to sleep, and when the night nurse came I ran down to get a breath of fresh air in the open." "No, you dldnt'come down for ;hai reason," Brouillard amended gravely. "You came to meet me." "Did I?" she asked. "What makes you think that?" "I know what happened," said Brouillard, speaking as soberly as if he were stating a mathematical certainty. "You left that room upstairs and came to me. I didn't see you, but 1 heard you as plainly as I can hear you now. You spoke to me and called mo by name." She shook her head, laughing lightly. "You have been overwrought about something, or maybe you are Just plain tired." "You are standing me off," he declared. "You are in trouble of some sort, and you are trying to hide it from me." "No, not exactly trouble; only a little worry." "All right call It worry If you like and share it with,me. What is it?' "I think you know without being told. I am afraid we have finally lost the Tdttle Susan.' That is one of the worries and the other I've been trying to call silly. I don't know what has become of father—as if he weren't old enough to go and come without telling me every move he makes!" "Your father isn't at home ?" gasped Brouillard. "No; he hasn't been here since nine o'clock this morning. Murray Grislow saw him going into the Metropole about one o'clock, but nobody that I have been able to reach by phone seems to have seen him after that" "I can bring the record down to two o'clock," was the quick reply. "He ate with me at Bongras', and afterward I walked with him as far as the bank. And I can cure part of the first worry —all of It, in fact; he had the money to take up the Cortwright notes, and when I left him he was on his way to Hardwick's window to do it." "He had the money? Where did he get it?" Brouillard put his back against a porch post, a change of position which kept the light of the street electric from Bhining squarely upon his face. "It has been another of the get-richquick days in Mlrapolis," he said evasively. "Somebody told me that the corner opposite Poodles' was bought and sold three times within a single hour and that each time the price was doubled." "And you are trying to tell me that father made a hundred thousand dollars just in those few hours by buying and selling Mlrapolis lots? You don't know him, Victor. He is totally lacking the trading gift He has often said that he couldn't stand on a street corner and sell twenty-dollar gold pieces at nineteen dollars apiece—nobody would buy of him." "Nevertheless, I am telling you that he had the money to take up those notes," Brouillard insisted. "I saw it in his hands." She stood fairly in the beam of the street light The violet eyes were misty, and in the low voice there was a note of deeper trouble. "You say you saw the money In father's hands; tell me, Victor, did you see him pay it Into the bank?" "Why, no; not the final detail. But as I say, when I left him he was on his way to Hardwick's window." Again she turned away, but this time it was to dart into the house. A minute later she had rejoined him, and the minute had sufficed for the donning of a coat and the pinning on of the quaint cowboy riding hat "I must go and find him," she said with quiet resolution. "Will you go with me, Victor? Perhaps that 1B why I—the subconscious I—called you a little while ago. Let's not wait for the Quadjenai car. I'd rather walk, and we'll save time." From the moment of outsetting the young woman's purpose seemed clearly defined. By the shortest way she indicated the course to the avenue, and at the Metropole comer she turned unhesitatingly to the northward—toward the region of degradation. As wss to be expected after the day of frantic speculation and quick money changing, the lower avenue was abtaxe with light the sidewalks were passes of peril, and the saloons and dives were reaping a rich harvest Luckily. Brouillard was well known, and bis position as chief of the great army of government workmen purchased something like Immunity for himself and bis companion. But more than ones he was on the point of begging the young woman to turn back for her own sake. The quest ended unerringly at the door of Haley's place, and when David Massingale's daughter mads a s if she would go in. Brouillard protested qolckly. "No. Amy." be said firmly. "Yon mustn't go la there, Lot me tabs yo« around to the Metropole. and Chen III come back alone." "I have been in worse places." she returned In low tones. And then, with her voice breaking tremulously: "Be my good friend Just a Utile longer, Victor!" He took her arm and walked her into the garishly-lighted liar-room, bracing himself milltantly lor what might happen. But nothing happened. Dlaalpatlon of the western variety seldom sinks below the level of a certain rude gallantry, quick to recognize the good and pure in womankind. Instantly a hush fell upon the place. The quartets at the card tables held their hands, and a group of men drinking at the bar put down their glasses. One, a Tri-Circ* cowboy with his back turned, let slip an oath, and in a single swift motion his nearest comrade garroted him with a hairy arm, strangling him to silence. As If guided by the same unerring instinct which had made her choose Haley's out of the dozen similar hells. Amy Massingale led Brouillard swiftly to the green baize doors at the rear of the bar-room. At her touch the swinging doors gave inward, and her goal was reached. Three faro games, each with its inlaid table, Its Impassive dealer, its armed "lookout," and its ring of silent players, lay beyond the baize doors. At the nearest of the tables there was a stir, and the dealer stopped running the cards. Somebody said. "Let him get out," and then an old man, bearded, white-haired, wild-eyed, and haggard almost beyond recognition, pushed his chair away from the table and stumbled to his feet, his hands clutching the air like those of a swimmer sinking for the last time. With a low cry the girl darted across the intervening space to clasp the staggering old man in her armB and draw him away. Brouillard stood aside as they came slowly toward the doors which he was holding open for them. He saw the distorted face-mask of a soul in torment and heard the mumbling repetition of the despairing words, "It's all gone, little girl; it's all gone!" and then he removed himself quickly beyond the range of the staring, unseeing eyes. For in the lightning flash of revealment he realized that once again the good he would have done had turned to hideous evil in the doing, and that this time the sword thrust of the blind passion impulse had gone straight to the heart of love itself. CHAPTER XV11I The Setting of the Ebb Look and Feel Clean, Sweet and Fresh Every Day Drink a glass of real hot water before breakfast to wash out poisons. Contrary to the most sanguine expectations of the speculators—contrary, perhaps, even to thOBe of Mr. J Wesley Cortwright—the upward Burge in Mlrapolis values, following the visit of the "distinguished citizens," proved to be more than a tidal wave; it was a series of them. Day after day the "curb" markets were reopened, with prices mounting skyward; and when the news of how fortunes could be made in a day in the Miracle city of the Nlquola got abroad In the press dispatches there was a fresh influx of mad money hunters from the Bast. Now, if never before, the croaker was wrathfuliy shouted down and silenced. No one admitted, or seemed to admit, the possible impennanence of the city. To the observer, anxious or casual, there appeared to be reasonable grounds for the optimistic assertion. It was an Indubitable fact that Brouillard's force had been cnt down, first to one-half, and later to barely enough men to keep the crushers and mixers moving and to add fresh layers of concrete to the huge wall of sufficient quantities to prevent the material—In technical phrase—from "dying." The Navajos had been sent home to their reservation, the tepees were gone, and two-thirds of the camp shacks were empty. Past these material facta it was known to everybody in the frenzied market place that Brouillard himself was, according to his means, one of the most reckless of the plungers, buying, borrowing, and buying again as if the future held no threat of a possible debacle. It was an object lesson for the timid. Those who did not themselves know certainly argued that there must be a few who did know, and among these few the chief of the reclamation service must be In the •ery foremost rank.' r V W W (TO BE CONTINUED.)

Japanese quince, mock orange sad bridal wreatt Life is not merely to live, but to live well, eat well, digest well, work well, sleep well, look well. What a glorious condition to attain, and yet how very easy it is If one will only adopt the morning inside bath. Folks who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when they arise, splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stagnant matter. Everyone, whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning, before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in It to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels th» previous day's indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary tract before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully Invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the water and phosphate is quietly extracting a large volume of water from the blood and getting ready for a thorough flushing of all the inside organs. The millions of people who are bothered with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism; others who have sallow skins, blood disorders and sickly complexions are urged to get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from any store that handles drugs which will cost very little, but is sufficient to make anyone a pronounced crank on the subject of internal sanitation.—Adv.

T h a t the event was connected with the -church was indicated by the many "temporary stands, decorated with colored tissue paper—which ornamented t h e street corners, where were sold -candles of every size—larger and hollow a t the end to fit over a metal point of a many-pronged church candelat r u m , and tapering to a sharp point at t h e other end, where they were tied in bunches by their wicks, and hung in t h e booths alternating, yellow and w h i t e . At the corners hung those of s h o u l d be there to join in their most u n i q u e celebration, Light flashed upon us, however, 'When we discovered in the hallway of the hotel a calendar, in large Greek type, which read as follows: "March 26, Thursday," and underneath in small type in French: "April 8, Holy T h u r s d a y , " showing that the Greek calculation is thirteen days behind the rest of Europe, therefore for them E a s t e r had not yet arrived. T h a t afternoon our discovery was confirmed as we walked through the old part of town, where the shops are. T h e counter of the public baker, whose e n o p opened to the street, was lined with rows of round loaves of bread a w a i t i n g the ordeal of the fiery furnace. Each contained five bright-red, hard-boiled eggs, pressed half-way into t h e soft dough In the shape of a Greek c r o s s ; all exactly alike, but each distinguished from its neighbors by a slip of paper sticking to the dough, which bore the name of the housewife who had kneaded it. On Good Friday we directed our -course by the dome-crowned spires of t h e Russian church, where the queen. t h e Bister of the czar, and the Russian .minister, occupied opposite boxes. At the close of the beautiful service, the responses of which were sung by a marvelous choir of unaccompanied m a l e voices, the priests brought to the front a representation of a tomb, havi n g a half-draped figure of Christ painte d on the top, and the sides covered •with rich embroidery of white and rgold. T h e queen advanced, kissed the rep- T e s e n t a t i o n of the dead body, and then t h e hand of the officiating priest, from w h o m she received a stalk of white gillyflower, and with the Russian minu t e r , who followed her example, left t h e church. T h e others of the audience c o n c l u d e d their worship in the same m a n n e r , each bearing away a floral r e m i n d e r of t h e coming resurrection. T h a t night t h e s e representations of t h e entombed Christ were borne in s o l e m n procession from the five princ i p a l churches, attended by the priests "In gorgeous robes, acolyteB bearing liaaners and colored lanterns, and followed by the m e m b e r s of t h e parish, • *«ech c a r r y i n g a lighted candle. A t Intervals, the procession halted -and a service was held; then each congregatlon r e t u r n e d to its own church, -•and long after all was still, in A t h e n a t h e flickering lights of the priests of *the C h u r c h of S t George could be seen •winding up t h e zigzag path to their ^aanctoary on t h e top of Lykabettos, * b e pointed hill which rises abruptly from t h e h e a r t of Athens. With t h e enshrining of Christ's body to t h e t o m b on Friday a fast was beg a n , lasting until the morning of his I W U i t r t l r m Therefore, Saturday was .qeletly spent until an hour or so betjore midnight, when s t r e a m s of peorple, each p e r s o n bearing a lighted •candle, poured through the streets ajgfltiif into the great square before 4fca church of the metropolitan. T h e t r e a t edifice, Illumined by tboeof huge candles in chaadelfers • e i l n l s U s was packed to the ami the square was filled to r overflowing with a restless sea of twinkling lights; the windows and balconies of the houses facing three sides of the square were ablaze with flickering tapers, and even t h e courses of the church and its bell towers were outlined by the tiny flames. The stars above looked pale and scattered in comparison. The king and queen and other members of the royal family, also government officials and noted guests, sat upon the edge of the platform erected In the center of the square. At length, the choir boys emerged from the doors of t h e cathedral, followed by the chanting priests, and finally by the metropolitan himself, arrayed in gorgeous robes, with a miter on his head and a bishop's crook in his hand. The procession ascended the platform where the venerable, kind-hearted man, with flowing white beard, raised his fingers in blessing over the waiting worshipers, and the beautiful music of the mass floated out on the silent air. Beside our breakfast plates, on Sunday morning, lay a bright red Easter egg, an emblematic gift—freely exchanged in Greece—but the chief event of this day of rejoicing was the dancing of the soldiers and of the bodyguard of the king. The l a t t e r took place in the courtyard of t h e royal palace, and t h e members of t h e guard w e r e attired, a s always, in t h e costume of Thessaly, their native province. As we were unprepared for the sight which met our eyes, our first impression was t h a t an a u t o m a t o n ballet chorus was running down. They wore very full-plaited skirts of starched white linen—stopping several Inches above t h e knee—white woolen tights, black g a r t e r s , with cords and tassels and red pointed shoes with h u g e pompoms on t h e tip of t h e toes. A white linen shirt, a zouave jacket with long flowing sleeves of white wool embroidered with black, and a red cap with a long black silk tassel reaching below t h e shoulder completed this very unmllitary costume. Monday was a quiet day, distinguished only by doubled carfares and t h e presence of n u m e r o u s peasants from surrounding districts, wearing attractive provincial costume. The national independence day fell on Holy Thursday, and being therefore postponed w a s celebrated on Tuesday morning. Prom o v hotel balcony we viewed t h e procession and a t t e n d a n t crowds. At the door of t h e palace across the square t h e king and queen stepped into their carriage. They were followed in the procession by the Crown P r i n c e Constanttne and his wife, the sister of the kaiser, then by Prince George and his bride, the Bonaparte princess, whom the Greeks welcomed with open arms, as the only member of the royal family who Is Greek, since the Bonaparte family were residents of Corsica while it was Greek territory, Napoleon being born only a few days after its transfer to France. The procession, accompanied by bands of music and a brilliant array of mounted soldiers, proceeded to the church of the metropolitan where mass was held. On the afternoon of Easter Tuesday all eyes were turned toward Megara, distant from Athens two hours by train, where the far-famed peasant dances t a k e place. In the large public square of the little town the women, dressed in holiday attire, Joined hands alternately across each other, forming long, straight lines, and danced, first In one direction and then in the opposite, a performance of no Bpecial grace or beauty, but made attractive by their pretty faces and curious costumes, and the great numbers of lines, tripping one way and then the other. Beneath the black skirts bordereC with a broad, red band hung several inches of handmade thread lace, from the white petticoats, the pride of t h e industrious wearer. The tight black bodices and yellow head scarfs were adorned with many loops of silver and gold coins, the dowries of the wearers, and some of the more wealthy, were resplendent in trimming of gold lace. They were pleased when we admired the beauty of the embroidery which their own hands had wrought on their aprons of bright-colored silk. The crowd of spectators encircling the dancers was so dense that we took refuge In a balcony t h a t overlooked the square and gained a most comprehensive and picturesque view. Here and there the long lines formed into a circle and a single man. attired in t h e abbreviated costume of t h e Thessalonians or in a checked gingham Jumper with an equally short, full-ruffled Bklrt, led the national d a n c e we had seen In Athens, to the accompaniment of stringed instruments. And thus closed the E a s t e r festivities, but not the holidays, for the pan- Hellenic games were celebrated for four days, beginning with Thursday— in t h e wonderful ancient stadium, restored to pristine glory by the munificence of a Greek of Alexandria. T h e games engaged in by a t h l e t e s from all p a r t s of Greece w e r e umpired by. Crown Prince Constantino, while t h e royal seats, covered with crimson v e l v e t w e r e occupied by other m e m b e r s of the royal family. T h e r e were t h e usual running, wrestling, pole vaulting, h a m m e r t h r o w i n g and shot putting, but t h e day of greatest interest was on Sunday, when t h e Marathon r a c e was run—begun at tl scene of t h e battle, and covering u* course, of the original runner, who bore t h e news of t h e defeat of the Persians. As t h e first man came into sight the great middle gates were thrown open—the only time they are ever unlocked, and the runners finished their M-mlle race between the goal posts at the upper end of the stadium, amid the deafening eh ef the waiting MARKET QUOTATIONS L : v c S t o c k . lilVriiU': Y -Yj.U-1' Itcci fiefat ijtru.', _. iU-i.-rs, $5.JU>J.'J, ay we.-:;., OJ;> ii'-r alters, $' Uiixt d .-.u-».-r- and a*:i.r<--".-, handy i'.£'.n ^uU'.'ic.'i, ;• li&h: jjuiehera, J o ' ^ 7 , bt-.^i c SWAMP-ROOT FOR KIDNEY DISEASES $v :'5u». ,. i•„ a 7.

The positive statement by Major Howze that Villa was hiding in the mountains near Laborja would indicate that the story of Villa's death is untrue, for the reason that his location is far from the place where it was reported his body has been found. General Funs-ton has received no confirmation whatever from any source to substantiate the story of Villa's death. It is the belief of many that if a body is being brought to Chihuahua, purporting to be Villa's, it is a trick of the Mexicans to have an excuse for American troops to be keeper.

The most gigantic conflict in the history of the world, the battle of Verdun has entered upon its ninth week. It is in many respects without precedent. The enormous scale of the German preparations and execution of the attack, the unparalleled concentration of artillery and the sustained ferocity of the fighting mark the battle as one of the greatest efforts of the war. Verdun has been rated as one of the strongest fortresses of Europe, a cornerstone of the French defenses against Germany. The evolution of military tactics during the war, however, and particularly the employment by the Germans of long range howitzers capable of reducing the greatest forts, have done much to change the character of the Verdun campaign as compared with the earlier conceptions of what sudn a struggle might be. In no previous battle were the losses so high as those which have been estimated in the fighting around Verdun. These estimates, however, cannot be regarded as conclusive evidence, for neither Germany nor France has announced its own casualties. The French war office has declared the Germans have lost 200,000 in killed, wounded and captured. The Germans state semi-offlcially that the French casualties number 150,000 kill- j ed and wounded and that 36,000 unwounded French prisoners have been ! taken. If these estimates are approx- ' imately correct, nearly 400,000 men have been eliminated as fighting unitsr Mew tc avoid *&peratwns These Three Women Tell How They Escaped the Dreadful Ordeal of Surgical Operations. Hospitals are great and necessary institutions, but they should be the .last resort for women who suffer with ills peculiar to their sex. Many letters on file in the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., prove that a great number of women after they have been recommended to submit to an operation have been made well by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Here are three such letters. AH sick women should read them.

The other question is, "Was the machine in good order at the time of your injury''" To the first of these questions the answer was "Cross," and to the second was an enthusiastic, heavily written and boldly underlined "YES."

YOUNGER ONES IN ARMIES Elderly Foreigners at Capital Arc Forced to Toil Day and Night, for Their Manifold Duticn Arc Burdensome and Exacting. By GEORGE C L I N T O N . Washington.—Who are the hardest working officials or government In Washington today'.' The quick answer might be the president of the United States, the secre tary of atate and the secretary of war. In making this answer there would b* an ignoring of the hard labor claims of the ambassadors and the m e m b e r s of their staffs who represent belligerent countries today in the capital of t h e United States. The president, because of foreign, Mexican and legislative troubles, •works virtually all day and sometimes p r e t t y well into the night. The secret a r y of state, because of threatening?; from across the water and from Mex ico, is compelled perhaps more frequently than t h e president to extend his hours into the dark time. The secretary of war is a new man in office and his work is particularly trying because he has a lot to learn and on top of what might be called his school ing has been imposed the necessity of looking after the welfare of our army in Mexico and along the border. This work of the American officials is hard and driving, but it is neither harder nor more driving perhaps than t h a t which daily must be undertake?) by the a m b a s s a d o r s and other diplom a t s in America representing the warring powers abroad. Russians, Englishmen, Frenchmen, Germans and the rest over the water are serving their governments in the trenches, but while their work may be the more dangerous it cannot be any more taxing than that which falls to the daily lot of the diplom a t i c r e p r e s e n t a t i v e s of these coun t r i e s In this capita! of the United States. Hard Work for Elderly Men. It has been said that the work of the foreign soldiers abroad may be more dangerous than that of their civilians now in this country in official capacities, but it may be that this s t a t e m e n t in Itself is a trifle overdrawn. Some of the a m b a s s a d o r s and their staff officers are getting along in life and as many of them work 16 hours a day the heavy burden of the labor makes them run the danger of actually being worked to death. When the war broke out nearly all of the younger men attached to the embassies in Washington immediately started home to Join the colors, With the exception of one or two foreign offices in Washington the staffs are composed of men who have been sent over here because they had become lnca pacitated for service in the trenches. When one m e e t s a noticeably tired looking man in Washington the natural Inference is that he is a diplomat r e p r e s e n t i n g one of the warring countries. This recently has been written concerning the work of the foreigners in W a s h i n g t o n : "In not one of the embassies of the belligerents in this town is such an order known as 'lights out'. From ambassador to doorman the foreigners toil away until exhaustion comes and forces- them to bed. The belligerent foreign g o v e r n m e n t s ought to send Red Cross d e t a c h m e n t s to their emb a s s i e s <:. Washington." Their Manifold Duties. It might be thought that even in war times the a m b a s s a d o r s of the powers which are engaged in war would be occupied only with duties connected with the s t a t e d e p a r t m e n t of this governm e n t Diplomacy, as it is generally understood, forms only a small part of the daily work of a Jusserand, a Von Bernstorff. or a Spring-Rice. T h e s e men are made the sympathetic recipient* of every plea in behalf of their countries. They are obliged to give ad- Ylce and support to hundreds upon hundreds of organizations all over the United States which are engaged in work In behalf of the destitute or the wounded in the countries which the ambassadors represent Diplomatic correspondence ts but a trifling matter of the day when com pared to the scores upon scores of lett e r s which must be answered from Iters, there and everywhere concerning w a y s and means of doing something to aid t h e stricken in the countries at war. The absence of the younger men h a s increased the burden of the elder m e n who today are dofrg the work t h a t formerly was done by their assistants, and who have their own work In addition. To this must be added the of various kinds of which the days knew nothing. •tree Interest Lawmakers. Sarin*; makes the staid lawmakers kin tart their fancies Uajhtly I ' to uther things ctian ieglsiaciuj.. The btauLics ot nature, bird songs and other pulsings or the spring season move them out ot their Winter moodb. For a week past the telephone ot a newspaper correspondent in Washington who has made an almost lifelong study of birds has been ringing as a summons to him to tell someone at the other end of the line what the wonderfully beautiful birds are that have come to Washington tn such great flocks this seauon. One of these telephone messages was from the office of the speaker of the house of r e p r e s e n t a t i v e s . Champ Clark. whose secretary wanted to know the Identity of the visiting birds and to give the information to many interest- j ed ones In the capttol. ! Cedar Waxwing Visits Capital. The speaker's secretary. Wallace Bassford, is an observing man. He had watched a Mock of visiting birds for a long time Just outside the capltol, and he brought back to his office with him a perfect description of the visitors. The birds are not at all rare, but seemingly fairly r b u n d a n t as they are, they a r e s t r a n g e r s to most people in Washington. The visitor is the cedar waxwing, frequently knowu in the country districts as the cherry bird. It is the Beau Brummel of its type, dressed as it is with exquisite neatness, with attractive yet not gaudy coloring. On each wing is a little flaming red deposit like wax, from which the bird gets its more common name of waxwing. One day not long ago, a senator of the T'nited States came into the capitol in some excitement and told a half a dozen of his colleagues that t h e r e was a quail on t h e capitol lawn. He said the quail had no business there, that it ought to be out in the wilder places, along the hedges or the borders of the corn fields in Maryland or Virginia. One or two of the senators to whom the information concerning the quail's presence was imparted were skeptical about the matter, and PO they asked the superintendent of the senate press gallery to a.sk the ornlthologically inclined newspaper correspondent to investigate. He did so, and found that the quail which had aroused the inter est of the senator was no quail at all. but a flicker, or yellow-winged woodpecker, or high-holder. This beautiful and rommon woodpecker has about a hundred and fifty names by which it is known locally. The flicker is one of the most abundant of our woodpeckers, and yet a country-bred senator of the United States, standing within twenty feet of the bird, thought it was a quail. War Department Rushed. Eiders among the correspondents in Washington when they visit the war d e p a r t m e n t are reminded sharply today of the time of the Spanish war, The Mexican trouble has started the machinery into renewed and quickened motion. The heads of d e p a r t m e n t s and many of the employees are work- j ing longer hours than the soldiers in the Held. Some time ago there was an a t t e m p t made in congress to add an hour to < the working day of the employees of the government. An a m e n d m e n t which was proposed to a pending bill was intended to increase the length of the working day, but it was overwhelmingly defeated. One of the prime reasons for the defeat of the m e a s u r e was the showing made by the chiefs of the d e p a r t m e n t s that when the pinch came all the government's employees were willing to work overtime and did so, although they received no extra pay, This Is one of the times in the war d e p a r t m e n t when men who are compelled by law to work seven hours a day really a r e working many additional hours and It is said that they a r - doing It willingly. Perhaps the most exacting duties of the war dep a r t m e n t today are those of General Crozier, chief of ordnance; General Aleshire, chief of the q u a r t e r m a s t e r s ' corps, and his immediate Junior, Gen« eral Sharp, who looks after commissary m a t t e r s . Probably no outsider has any conception of the beadquarter's work t h a t is necessary when even so small an army is in t h e held as t h a t which Is now operating in Mexico and along the border. Food and Clothing Problems. The soldier, as the old saying goes, marches and fights on his belly. In other words, the trooper has to be well fed or he can neither fight nor march as he ought to be able to do If he is to "get there" and to win battles. Not only must a soldier be well fed, but be must be well clothed and both food and clothing must be accommodated to the climate tn which the troops are operating. Th«ire are all kinds of climate In Mexico, the terrific heat of the lowlands, the fairly temperate climate of the midhighlands and the severe cold of the upper mountain regions. All these things had to be taken into consideration in preparing Pershing's punitive expedition for its incursion Into the Mexican field.

Germany, however, is willing to meet the United States half way and do everything in her power to avoid a crisis, with respect to the channel packet SuBsex.

State r.nd war d e p a r t m e n t officials nrivately agree, however, that in the light of Carranza'* demands an agreement between the two governments is out of the question. President Wilson sent for Duval West, of Texa.-. at one time his confident ia! agent in Mexico. West recommended after his return from Mexico t h a t t h e government havt1 nothing to do with Carranza. The report f-pread in connection with West's vint that President Wilson is considering n break with Carranza unless the first chief acquiesces in the purposes of the American expedition to capture Villa.

In the course of a debate enlivened by charges t h a t federal funds provided the national guard in past years had been foolishly thrown away and in some cases embezzled, the senate adopted a m e n d m e n t s providing that all officers of the guard above the rank of captain be paid $5tni a y.<ar by the federal government and that all g u a r d s m e n on enlistment he required to take an oath to obey orders from the president as well as the governor of their respective state-. The attack on guard officers for their use of federal funds was made by Senator Borah, in a speech opposing the Reed amendment for federal pay. The Idaho senator declared the. 18.000,000 available annually for use of the guard under the Dick militia law had been "shamefully" utilized by officers to the exclusion of enlisted men, and that some of it had been "embezzled," Senators Reed, Pomerene and others defended the guardsmen and the federal pay amendment was adopted 41 to 14.

Wesley Cortw r i g h t and explains the reclamation work to him. Cortwright organizes a company a n d obtains government contracts to furnish power and material. Steve MasalngaJe threatens to start a gold rush If Brouillard does not use his influence to bring a railroad branch to the place, thus opening an eaay m a r k e t for the "Little S u s a n " mine ore. Brouillard tells Amy Massingale of his need Tor money to pay off his dead father's debts. She tells him t o be tine to himself. He decides for the extension, Mirnpolis, the city of numbered days, booms. Cortwright persuades Brouillard to become consulting engineer of the power company In return for $100.- <J00 stock. Stoppage of work on the railroad threatens a panic. Brouillard spreads t h e Massingale story of placer gold in t h » river bed and s t a r t s a gold rush, which promises to stop the reclamation project. Amy tells Brouillard that her father la in Cortwright's financial clutches. He tells her he has made $100.- 000 and declares his love. She loves him. b u t shows him that he has become demoralised, A real gold And is made. Brouillarfl sella his stock but does not pay his father' s debts. Cortwright's son shoots D a v e MasslnjrMe. Brouillard threatens Cortwright with exposure if he pushes Massingale to the wall. 8 There comes a time In the life j? of every young man who Is & smothering his soul to gratify 2 his senses and selling his char- 5 acter for money, when opportu- X nity is given h i m to t u r n about 3- face, to rediscover his Ideals 8 and get back to common hon- *} esty. Has B r o u i l l a r d reached r> this point? S" C H A P T E R — X V — C o n t i n u e d . The promoter pulled himself erect frith a grip on either arm of the chair. "Brouillard, do you know what you are talking about?" he demanded. "No; it la only a guess. But as matters stand—with your son indictable for an attempted murder . . . it J were you, Mr. Cortwright, 1 believe I'd give David Massingale a chance to pay those notes at the bank." "And let him blackmail me? Not In a month of Sundays, Brouillard! Let him sell his ore and pay the notes If he can. If he can't, I'll take the mine." "All right," said the visitor placably. "You asked, and I've answered. Now let's come to something more vital to both of us. There la a pretty persistent rumor on the street that you and your associates succeeded In getting a resolution through both houses of congress at the last session, appointing a committee to investigate this Coronida claim right here on the ground. Nobody seems to have any definite details, and it possibly hasn't occurred to anyone that congress hasn't been In session since Mirapolls was born. But that doesn't malter. The committee Is coming; youJKave engaged rooms for it here 4flSHecgraa'. Vou are expecting the prrvate-car special next week." "Well?" said the magnate. "You're a pretty good kindergartner. But what of it?" "Oh, nothing. Only I think you might have taken me in on the little side play. What if 1 had gone about town contradicting the rumor?" "Why should you? it's true. The congressional party will be here next week, and nobody has made any secret of i f • "Still. 1 might have been taken in." persisted Brouillard suavely. "You'll surely want to give me my instruct i n g Z l!tt!« beforehand, won't youT Just think how easily *«*._ might get tangled Suppose I should say to •Ones* body—to ^Oarner, for example—that the town <ras hugely mistaken; that no congressional committee had ever been appointed; that these gentleman who are about to visit us are mere complaisant friends of yours, coming as your guests, on a junketing trip at your expense. Wouldn't that be rather awkward ?" The mayor of Mirapolls brought his hands together, fist In palm, and for a flitting Instant the young engineer saw In the face of the father the same expression that he had seen In the face of the son when Van Brace Cortwright was struggling for a second chance to kill a man. "Damn you!" said the magnate savagely; "you always know too much I Yon Ye bargaining with me!" "Well, yon hare bargained with me, first, last and all the time," waa the cool retort "On each occasion I have had my pries, and yon have paid It N o v yo« are going to pa?

"There tti one weak j chain. Mr. Curtwrlgbt," ly; "you don'i know men. Put on your coai and come over to Harlan's office with nae. It will take Just about two ruinutea to satisfy you that I'm not bluffing." For a mo merit It appeared that the offer waa to be accepted. But when he had one arm In a coat sleeve, Lirouillard's antagonist In the game of hardihood changed his tactics. "Forget It," he growled morosely. "What do you want thin time'.'"' "1 want you to send a wire to Red Butte telling the smelter people that you will be glad to have them handle the 'Little Susan' ore." -And If 1 do?" "'If you do, two things otherwise due to happen adversely will go over to your side of the market. I'll agTee to keep out of the way of the sham Washington delegation, and I think I ean promise that Harlan won't make a scarehead of the facts concerning the Coronida land titles." Mr. Cortwright thrust the other arm into the remaining coat Bleeve and scowled. But the rebound to the norm of brusque good nature came almost Immediately. "You are Improving wonderfully, Brouillard, and that's no joke, I have a large respect for a man who can outbid me in my own corner. Vou ought to be in business—and you will be, some time. I'll send the wire, but 1 warn you in advance that I can't make the smelter people take Massingale's ore if they don't want to. All I can do is to give the old man a free field." "That Is all he will ask—all I'll ask, except one small personal favor: Don't rub your masquerading Washington delegation into me too hard. A fine quality of noninterference is about all you are buying from me." "Tell me one thing, Brouillard: What'is your stake in the Massingale game? Are you a silent partner in the 'Little Susan'?" "No." "Then why are you so anxious to make old David a rich man at my expense? Are you going to marry the girl?" The engineer did not resent the question as he would have resented It a few weeks earlier. Instead he smiled and said: "A little while ago, Mr. Cortwright, I told you that you didn't know men; now I'll add that you don't know women." Public opinion, skillfully formed upon models fashioned in Mayor Cortwright's municipal laboratory, dealt handsomely with the little group of widely-heralded visitors—the "congressional committee." When It was whispered about, some days before the auspicious arrival, that the visiting lawmakers wished for no public demonstration of welcome, it was resolved, both in the city council and in the Commercial club, that the wish should be rigidly respected. Hence, after the farewell banquet at the Commercial club, at which even the toasts had ignored the official mission of Mayor Cortwright's guests, tingling curiosity still restrained itself, said nothing and did nothing until the train had stormed out on the beginning of its steep climb to War Arrow pass. Then the barriers went down. In less than half an hour after the departure of the visitors, the Spotlight office was besieged by eager tip hunters, and the Metropole cafe and lobby were thronged and buzzing like the compartments of an anxious beehive. Harlan stood the pressure at the newspaper office as long as he could. Then he slipped out the back way. There was a light in Brouillard's office on the sixth floor of the Niquoia building, and thither he went, hoping against hope, for latterly the chief of the reclamation service had been more than nsCSUT rsttesat "What do yon know, Brouillard ?" was the form his demand took, "Go to Cortwrtght,* suggested the engineer. "He's your man." "JuBt come from him, and I couldn't get a thing there except his admission that he is buying instead of selling." "Well, what more do you want? Haven't you any imaginationV "Plenty of it. and, by Gad, Pm going to use It unless you put it to sleep! Tell me a few correlative things, Brouillard. and 111 make a noise like going away. Is it true that you've bad orders from Washington within the past few days to cut your force on the dam one-half?" The engineer waa playing with the paperknlfe, absently marking little circles and ellipses on his desk blotter, and the ash on his cigar grew a full quarter of an Inch before he replied: "Not for publication, Harlan, I'm to say." yes have the nristr " Y e s .

By t e n o'clock It w a s the talk of the lobbies, the club, and the exchanges that the reclamation service was already abandoning the work on the great dam. One-half of the workmen were to be discharged at once, and doubtless the other half would follow as soon as the orders could come from Washington. Appealed to by a mob of anxious inquirers, Brouillard did not deny the fact of the discharges, and thereupon the city went mad in a furor of speculative excitement in comparison with which the orgy of the gold discoverers paled into insignificance. "Curb" exchanges sprang into being in the Metropole lobby, in the court of the Niquoia building, and at a dozen street corners on the avenue. Word went to the placers, and by noon the miners had left their sluice-boxes and were pouring into town to buy options at prices that would have staggered the wildest plunger otherwhere, or at any other time. Brouillard closed his desk at one o'clock and went to fight his way through the street pandemonium to Bongras'. At a table in the rear room he found David Massingale, his long, white beard tucked into the closelybuttoned miner's coat to be out of the way of the flying knife and fork, while he gave a lifelike imitation of a man begrudging every second of time wasted in stopping the hunger gap, Brouillard took the opposite chair and was grimly amused at the length of time that elapsed before Massingale realized his presence. "Pity a man has to stop to eat on a day like this, Isn't It, Mr, Massingale?" he laughed; and then: "How is Steve?" Massingale nodded. "The boy's comin' along all right now. They're sayln' on the street that you're lettln' out half o' your men—that so?" Brouillard laughed again. "Yes, It's true. Have you been doing something In real estate this morning, Mr. Massingale?" "All I could," mumbled the old man between mouthfuls. "But I cayn't do much. If it ain't one thing, it's another. 'Bout as soon as 1 got that tangle with the Red Butte Bmelter straightened out, the railroad hit me." "How was that?" queried Brouillard, with quickening interest coming alive at a bound. "Same old song, no cars; try and get 'em tomorruh, and tomorruh It'll be next day, and next day it'll be the day after. Looks like they don't want to haul any freight out o' here." "I see," said Brouillard, and truly he saw much more than David Massingale did. Then: "No shipments means no money for you, and more delay; and delay happens to be the one thing you can't stand. When do those notes of yours fall due?" Massingale was troubled, and his fine old face showed it plainly. "I ain't much of a man to holler when I've set the woods afire myself," he answered slowly. "But I don't kno"^ why I shouldn't yip a little to you if 1 feel like it. Today is the last day on them notes. I been to see Hardwick at the bank, and he gave me the ultimaytum good and cold." One of Bongras' rear-room luxuries was a portable telephone for every group of tables. Brouillard made a sign to the waiter, and the desk set waa brought to him. if David Massingale recognized the number asked for. he paid no attention; and, since s man may spend his life digging boles in the ground and still retain the in stlncts of a gentleman—if be happen* to have been born with them—he was equally oblivions to the disjointed half of the telephone conversation he might have listened to. "Hello! !• that Boyer—Niquoia National? . . . This is Brouillard. Can you give me my present figure? . . . Not more than that? . . Oh, yes; you say the Hillman check Is in; I had overlooked -ft All right, thank yon." When the warier had removed the desk set, the engineer leaned toward his table companion: -Mr. afsningiU.

"So it amounts to this: Vou have given them a clean third of the 'Susan' for the mere privilege of borrowing one hundred thousand dollars on your own paper. And if you don't pay, you lose the remaining two-thirds as well." "That's about the way it stacks up to a sober man. Looks like I needed a Janitor to look after my upper story, don't It? And 1 reckon mebby I do." "One thing more," pressed the relentless querist. "Did you really handle the hundred-thousand-dollar development fund yourself, Mr. Massingale?" "Well, no; not exactly. Ten thousand dollars of what they called a 'contingent fund' was put in my name; but the treasurer handled most of it— nachurly, we bein1 a stock company." Brouillard took out his pencil and began to make figures on the back of the menu card. He knew the equipment of the "Little Susan," and his Rpecialty was the making of estimates. Hence he was able to say, after a minute or two of figuring: "It's a bad business any way you attack it. What you have really got for yourself out of the deal is the ten thousand- dollar deposit to your personal account, and nothing more; and they'll probably try to make you a debtor for that. Taking that amount and a fair estimate of the company's expenditures to date—say thirty-five thousand in round numbers, which is fairly chargeable to the company's assets as a whole—they still owe you about fiftyfive thousand of the original hundred thousand they were to put In, If there were time—but you say this is the last day?" "The last half o' the last day," Massingale amended. "That being the case, there is no help for It; you'll have to take your medicine and pay the notes. Do that, take an iron-clad receipt from the bank —I'll write It out for you—and get the stock released. After that, we'll give them a whirl for the thirty-three and a third per cent they have practically stolen from you." The old man's face, remindful now of his daughter's, was a picture of dismayed incertitude. "1 reckon you're forgettin' that 1 hain't got money enough to lift one edge o' them notes," he said gently. Brouillard had found a piece of blank paper in his pocket and was rapidly writing the "iron-clad" receipt "No, I hadn't forgotten. I have something over a hundred thousand dollars lying idle in the bank. You'll take it and pay the notes." It was a bolt out of a clear sky for the old man tottering on the brink of his fourth pit of disaster, and be ' evinced his emotion—and the tense strain of keyed-up nerves—by dropping his lifted coffee cup with a crash into his plate. The little accident was helpful in its way—it made a diver- > sion—and by the time the wreck was I repaired speech was possible "Are you—are you plumb sure you ; can spare it?" asked the debtor husk- j ily. And then: "1 cayn't seem to sort i o' surround it—all in a bunch, that ! way I knowed J. Wesley had me ! down; the 'Susan's* the only piece o' j real money in this whole blamed free- i for-alL and be knows it." | After they had made their way through the excited sidewalk exchanges to the bank, and Brouillard had written his check, the old man, with the miracuiously-sent bit of rescue paper in his hand, hesitated.

Dr. John Dill Robertson, Chicago's health commissioner, has this to oay about alcohol: "In the city of Chicago, where the death rate ia approximately lOu a day, it is safe to say that at least l\j pelcent of these deaths are caused directly or indirectly by alcohol. "Sir William Osier, late of Johns Hopkins, professor of medicine at Ux ford. McGill and Pennsylvania universities and one of the world's greatest physicians, bays of alcohol that it produces acute inflammation of the stomach, hemorrhage of the pancreas, heart disease, cancer of the stomach, Bright's disease, fatty liyer, hardened, liver, inflammation of the nerves, epilepsy, hardening of the arteries and a multitude of other afflictions of the body. "Those are known medical facts. Alcohol is truly a poison. It is not only the causative factor in the dls- ; eases and afflictions I have mentioned ; above, but it invades the mental man \ and produces insanity. "Alcoholic pneumonia is known to r-ery practitioner. In the past twenty years in Chicago the death rate from pneumonia was just twice what it was the preceding twenty years. Alcohol is without doubt to blame for a part of these deaths, for in alcoholic 1 pneumonia the death rate is tremendous. "No one can estimate the large number of people whose death certificates t are marked by a diagnosis which \ seems to have no connection with alcohol. Still, If the truth were known j it was the predisposing factor in the death of them. "When I say that 25 per cent of the death rate is directly or indirectly due to alcohol, I do not exaggerate. Twenty per cent of the mortality among infants is caused by the-ir having alcoholic parents. Alcoholic poverty—and I believe this phrase needs no explanation— is one of the great indirect causes." friiro^Kr&n^ftflpanftOQfrQHrfrftfrfta^ Will Old Dave Messlnoale go ;J himself to Amy en£ te" her <i what Victor Kae done to pet the ;j Maseinseie mine out of Cort* -i wright's clutches? ; | (TO BE C O N T I N U E D . ) Japan has more telephones tts* aH at C I R C U S M A N ' S V I E W . The plana for booking the bfg circuses hereafter is to play only dry towns, with the exception of the largo cities. The manager of the Hagenbeck- Wallace circus says, as reported by William Allen White in the Emporia (Kan,) Gazette: "We do a better business in a dry town than in a wet one. We noticed the difference in Missouri; always the day's receipts were better in a town that had gone dry under local option than in a town where saloons were open. And business is better in Kansas than it was in Missouri. "I have seen this whole game up and down and backward and across, and I want to tell you that all this talk about a town needing saloons or gambling houses to stimulate business is the purest bunk." "Here is an amusement man's point of view on booze," comments Mr. White. "Once again the verdict is thumbs down for John Barleycorn. Poor old John! He can't mix with religion or politics or business. If Ife can't mix with the amusements where does he get in? And the answer ia that national prohibition is Just around the corner." S W E E P I N G V I C T O R I E S . When in March the province of Manitoba, Canada, voted dry (by a majority of more than two to one), it added 251,832 square miles to the prohibition territory of North America. The dominion of Canada is rapidly going dry. Alberta, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia (with the exception of Halifax) have outlawed the liqnor traffic; Saskatchewan has abolished all bar and club licenses until after the war, the residue of the traffic being under control of the provincial government; New Brunswick has prohibition tn ten out of fifteen counties; about twothirds of the territory of Quebec is dry; in Ontario and In British Columbia a plebiscite Wi- ^ ken this year.

It is his ability as a salesman, and a man who Is a good bartender will make a good clerk or salesman in practically any other kind of business. Furthermore, it requires many more people to sail $200,000,000 worth of bread and clothing, for example, than It doss to sell liquor of the same value.

He is not only profitable when grown a s a crop In himself, but some very important places rilled by him come from his ability to make use of feeds that would otherwise be lost. T h u s he saves waste and utilizes materials around t h e farm which only he can use and converts these into a marketable product and cash. T h e pig is known as the "mortgage-lifter," and this appellation Is certainly well deserved. Because of t h e pig's ability to utilize t h e grain droppings from s t e e r s , the pig often makes steer-feeding operations profitable that would not 1 prove so without his aid. Mumford reports in a summary of ten different | experiments t h a t t h e gains made by ' pigs fed following steers paid from 0.94 per cent to 16.67 per cent of t h e feed given t h e steers. These pigs were thrifty shotes a n d did not receive additional feed. Considering t h e relative economy of the different kinds of live stock, the pig takes a place among the most economical. For t h e whole fattening pe- . riod the ox requires 1,109 pounds of i dry feed to produce 100 pounds gain; , the sheep, 912 pounds, and t h e pig, 420 pounds. Among t h e classes of farm animals the pig ranks second as a producer of human food from a given amount of digestible m a t t e r consumed. The milch cow leads in h e r power to convert crops of t h e field Into human food, with t h e pig second, poultry following, and the steer and sheep coming lowest. ! Feeding pigs on the farm h a s another value, and that Is In relation to so'il fertility. T h e man who feeds biB g-ain to pigs sells a very small amount of fertilizing elements off of t h e farm as compared with the o a e who sells grain. Furthermore, in us ing forage or pasture crops t h e value of t h e m a n u r e scattered over t h e field is considerable, ' Swine fanning, like other branches of live-stock farming, gives employment t o la: ,r during the entire voar, and enables the farmer to keep .i1-ed labor throughout t h e year and ';oes not congest It at har/est time.

Corn, melons, cucumbers and potatoes and other crops which require a large area should not be grown in a garden of this size. Half an acre properly cultivated with a careful crop rotation m a y easily produce flQu worth of various garden crops in a year. When to Work Soil. If t h e garden w a s not broken In t h e fall it should be plowed in the spring as soon as t h e frost Is out of t h e ground. Small a r e a s may be worked with a spade, pushing t h e blade in to its full depth and turning t h e soil to break up t h e clods. Heavy soils should nevvjr be worked when wet. Overzealous g a r d e n e r s , ready to seize the first warm spell as a favorable opportunity to go out and work the heavy clay soil before it is dry, a r e not only wasting their e n e r g y , but a r e doing a damage to t h e soil from which it will take years for it to recover. To d e t e r m i n e when heavy soils a r e ready for plowing a handful of earth should be collected from t h e surface and t h e fingers tightly closed on it. If the ball of compacted earth is dry enough for cultivation it will fall apart when t h e hand is opened. How to Fertilize. The soil in the average backyard is not only lacking in plant food, but also h a s been packed until it is hard and unyialding. To loosen up aucb soil and make it suitable for garden produce requires that careful attention be given to its preparation. After spadlug t h e Inclosure thoroughly, t h e upper three Inches should be made fine with the use or hoe and rake. S t o a t s and rubbish should be removed a i d clods of dirt broken. T h e surface should be marked off for planting in conformity with t h e general plan of the garden. Barnyard or stable m a n u r e is t h e best fertilizer because It furnishes both plant food and humus. An appli cation at the rate of from 20 to 30 tons to t h e acre of well rotted manure .s vory satisfactory. This should be appi >d after plowing or worked with a i spade, and distributed evenly over I t h e surface and later worked in with a I ' <~~ or rake On many soils It la adv able to apply commercial fertilizer, e pec ally phosphate, in addition to Jit m a n u r e . An application of 300 to HOu , unds of acid phosphate to t h e acre is usually sufficient. If additional potash Is needed, which is often t h e case with sandy soils, this may be economl ally supplied in t h e form of wor,(l ashes. If tl.t wood a s h e s a r e uneach^ d they should be distributed rver t h e garden, using 1,000 pounds to che acre. If they have been wet, or leached, 2,000 pounds should be used. An application of 100 pounds to t h e acre of n i t r a t e pf soda m a y be used In the spring to start t h e plants before nitrogen in t h e m a n u r e h a s become available. (Conducted by the National Womnn'a Christian Temperance t'rilun^ ON T H E D O W N G R A D E . F o r a decade while prohibition a r e a was steadily spreading, t h e statistics of t h e federal government showed t h e m a n u f a c t u r e r s of intoxicants paying taxes on a constantly enlarging quantity of their products.

Not such a hard n u t when it la known t h a t all liquor on which t h e g o v e r n m e n t tax h a s been paid is officially reported a s 'consumed,'' and that during the decade referred to l a r g e quantities were forced out of the bonded warehouses by the time limit and stored in private warehouses awaiting a constantly decreasing de mand. "But," continues the Continent, with p e r t i n e n t emphasis, " w h a t e v e r was the real secret of that paradox, the necessity of explaining it has now quite gone by. It is a fact n o more. T h e business of brewing a n d distilling is at last on a toboggan slide which nobody c a n deny. T h e report of t h e commissioner of internal r e v e n u e for 1915, just issued, shows a decline in both beer making and whisky making, which d e m o n s t r a t e s t h a t prohibition is n o w prohibiting with a vengeance plainly m a r k i n g t h e beginning of the end. T h e 1914 report already showed some shortage in t h e whisky business; from t h e year before t h e r e w a s a decline of 15,000,000 gallons. But t h e n e w r e p o r t proves how falling bodies a r e accelerated a s t h e y fall, for t h e decline in t h e year Just past is 41,000,- C00 gallons—from 181,000,000 to 140,- 000,000. " E v e n m o r e significant is the recorded item t h a t within t h e year 198 distilleries quit business out of 743 such institutions in t h e United States. And m e a n w h i l e t h e quantity of beer made in t h i s country decreased from 66,000,- 000 b a r r e l s to 59,000,000. This is, for t h e b r e w e r s , their first setback, b u t it furnishes sufficient notice that they a r e tickoted for t h e s a m e downgrade t h a t their distilling brethren a r e emb a r k e d on.

Giving advice recently concerning m e a s u r e s for t h e prevention of colds a n d pneumonia he said: "Now is t h e time to get e n the water wagon and to stay there.

The action of limestone phosphate and hot water on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast and it is said to be but a little while until the roses begin to appear in the cheeks. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will cost very little at your druggist or from the store, but is sufficient to make anyone who is bothered with biliousness, constipa tion, stomach trouble or rheumatism a real enthusiast on the subject of internal sanitation. Try it and you are assured that you will look better and feel better in every way shortly.— Adv.

Detroit The Detroit Opera House was packed Sunday afternoon with people who came to listen io speakers who oppose preparedness and an overflow meeting wa.b held in the Campus Maruus. "Democracy Agalnbt Militarism" read a huge tiign stretched across the btage of the opera house, as the keynote of ihe "Truth About Preparedness." Henry Ford and his wife sat mod estly hidden in a box at the principal meeting. Society women distributed circulars of Congressman Tavener's speech on the "Cost of War." Siereoptican slides and motion picturewere shown. Workingmen in the gal leries led frequent rounds of applause. Harold Jarvis sang The speakers at the mass meeting are on a tour of 12 lar^e cities where similar mass meetings have been arranged by local committees. They have announced that their tour is "an answer to the challenge of President Wilao-n that all who oppose the policy of a larger army and navy should hire a hall and tell it to the people cf the land." "This meeting Is not anti-preparednes?, but anti-militarism," said Rev. Eugene Rodman Shippen, the chairm a ^ in his introductory remarks. "We seek the best interests of the American union, rather than the profit of the military circle which is bringing Europe into ruin. "This meeting is a protest against the hysteria of fear which many agencies have cultivated so systematically and against the frenzy of warfare which may threaten our lives, our liberty and our proper pursuit of happiness." Dr. A. A. Berle of Tufts college, Boston, was the first speaker, He was followed by Rabbi Stephan S. Wise of New York and Amos Pinchot who subsequently briefly addressed the overflow meeting in the open air. The crowd listened respectfully but asked numerous questions. There were other speakers following the principal ones. The chief arguments of some of the speakers were: "The war frenzy if a disease." "It is the greed of the munition manufacturers that is fighting peace," "When there Is no more poverty people will not want to fight." Rabbi Wise disclosed: "1 am against militarism now, because if we continue to prepare, another war will be inevitable, and it will be the first of a series, a world orgy of fite, disaster and blood. God forbid that the shame of a perpetuation of war should lie on the conscience of the American people." Dr. Berle charged graft, saying: "Let us not allow feverish madness to endanger our liberties and place ourselves in the hands of the militarists who are now rgsnized to graft upon the puttie* ^J^ *nd fatten their bank • c c ^ i j j f j f Pinchot aBjtjr?,' . - e r statements said this: "R«BW«ber, war is of the people and it is by the people. But war is never for the people. Consider, in Europe $1,000,000,000 is being spent every IB days in the destruction of war." Dr. Wise then made an appeal for funds, declaring that while traveling expenses were guaranteed to the party, that there was no surplus funds for printing or other expenses. Collection plates were passed around and about $300 collected. ,<3^^k2?U\ * • C * - - - .

PLAN TO ELIMINATE POLITICS Intention of Measure 1» to Keep the Tariff Out of Party Strife—Studies • f Commission Intended to Be of Profit to Congress. By GEORGE CLINTON. Washington.—A tariff eommlauion bill, having the sanction of the majority of the ways and means committee, has been Introduced into congress and it 1H a aafe prediction that it will be passed because it is known virtually definitely that a majority of the members of both houses will support it. The bill was drawn by Representative Rftiney of Illinois. President Wilson recently announced that he was in favor of the passage by the present congress of a bill creating a tariff commission. The measure in its present form provides for a commission of six members with salaries of % 10,000 a year each and It is especially provided that not more than three members shall belong to the same political party. In a statement made by the framer of the bill, and authorized by the majority of the ways and means committee, the following appears: "This would mean three Democrats and three Republicans. From the political standpoint, the membership of the committee would be equally balanced between the parties which favor different methods of imposing tariffs. The bill requires the chairman and the vice-chairman to be selected biennially. This makes it Impossible to install in these important offices for a long term members who happen to belong to the political party in power when the appointment is made. In the first instance members are appointed for two, four, six. eight, ten and twelve years respectively. As their terms expire, however, their successors are appointed for twelve years." Keep Tariff Out of Politic*. It is urged by some members of congress that this specific division of the commission Into a membership of Republicans and Democrats as out* lined by the framer of the bill perhaps may not be possible as things develop. It is said that Inasmuch as the measure provides simply that not more than three members of the commission shall belong to any one party It will be possible to appoint three Democrats or three Republicans and then for Instance to appoint a Progressive, a Prohibitionist, a Socialist It Is the intention of the measure, however, to keep the tariff out of polltics and if the president shall exercise Judgment in the appointment of mem bers it can be made a commission nonpoHtical In its nature no matter what parties are represented. Ever since the tariff commission plan first was suggested the idea has been to Becure a membership which would consider the tariff as a business proposition and not as a political one. It is expected that business men and students of economics will be appointed to the commission. An Ideal commission, as members of all parties view It, would be one which would study business conditions throughout the country, would determine actually which Industries need protection and which do not, and then would act accordingly. It must not be supposed for a moment, however, that this bill or any other bill which has been framed in the past has for its object the appointment of a commission which shall concern Itself directly with tariff legislation. If this measure passes congress, as it is presumed that it will, the commission will be empowered to act only In an advisory capacity to congress. It will make studies of conditions here, there and everywhere, and then will lay Its reports before the president and the congress of the United 8tates. There is nothing in the proposed law, and there can be nothing In it which will In any way take sway from congress the right to legislate as it chooses In tariff matters. and the natural expansion of its us» fulness in saving life and properly at sea demand application of ihe art ot flying to search for derelicts and (or carrying aid to ships and meti in dis tress at sea" It was only recently that the liresaving corps of the United States, which is composed of men who patrol the beaches and the rocky headlands and who go to sea in small bouts at the risk of their own lives to rescue those In danger, was put upon a foot lag similar to that occupied by the revenue cutter service and In a measure by that occupied by the army and navy. For years the llfesavers at small pay haa risked everything for the saving of the property and the lives of others and yet when they were old and uaftt for service they were turned out without pensions and without any provision whatsoever for their declining years.

WISCONSIN GETS A BIG SURPRISE on Paris The village of Bethincourt, forming the apex of the salient of the All this has been changed now and western bank of the Meuse, against Aero Corps to Help Coart Guard. Congress may act to provide aeroplanes as aids to the life-saving and the revenue cutter services of the United States, two services which recently have been merged into one under the name of the coast guard. Department officials are now en gatsd in perfecting a bill which will be Introduced into congress for the creayen of a coast guard aerial corps. Byron R. Newton, assistant secretary of the treasury, who has jurisdiction over the coast guards, says on this matter: "I favor any legislation which will provide for the development of the coast guard to a higher degree of etV the lifesav*ng service has been made a part of the revenue cutter service and the two together are called the coast guard. The men who dare all to help others can retire after a certain length of service and then they receive retired pay. For yearB attempts were male to Induce congress to render assistance to the service which always wes ready to give its help to others, but every attempt to do anything for the men who fronted wave and storm at the call of duty failed until a short time ago, when congress finally consented to act. If an aero coast guard service Is sanctioned by congress it will mean added dangers for the members of the coast guard. When a vessel reports by wireless that it Is in distress somewhere off the coaBt it !s the instant duty of a revenue cutter to put out to the rescue. It frequently happens that the cutter men cannot quickly locate the distressed ship because wave and wind and tide have changed its position, "t is believed that by the use of aeroplanes of the sea plane type vessels In distress more quickly can be located and help more quickly reo dered. It is believed also to be a part o£ the plan to equip some of the life-saving stations on the coast with aeroplanes. The thought 1B that an aeroplane putting seaward can pass a line over a stranded ship more accurately and quickly than It can be done by means of the mortars on shore which are now used to throw a projectile with a line attached to Bhips on the rocks or fast in the sand. The coast guard as It is constituted Is Uncle Sam's most recently organized service. Of course the revenue cutter and the life-saving services as distinct bodies have existed for years, but now they have been welded. State, War and Navy Club. Officials and employees of the state, war and navy departments have organized a social club which will have membership reaching into the thousands. The department of the interior set a club example two years ago, and It seems likely that it will be followed by all the other departments of government The Home club of Mr. Lanes department has been a huge ruccess. It Is said that Washington, In proportion to its population, has more social clubs than any other city in the Union, but the organizations for instruction and to promote sociability among the officials and clerks, ar* a departure in club life. Through ah the years of Washington's existence as the nation's capital nothing of the kind ever has been tried before, and this is regarded as an amazing fact by those who now see the possibilities in the case. The organization which the state, war and navy departments have set out to form has not yet been named. That it will take a definite name, following the example of the interior department's organization, which is called the Home club, there Is no doubt The state, war and navy workers are determined to put their club on a firm basis from the start and to make it a club after the manner of university clubs and other organizations which all the big cities contain. Will Erect a Building. A corporation has been formed, and the employees of the three departments have purchased stock at a modest figure. The money will be used to erect and equip a building to be used as the home of the club, one where the employees can gather for purposes of entertainment and instruction. The Home club of the Interior department has leased a fine residence on Lafayette square which formerly was the Persian legation, but It is the intention of the newly formed society to own its own building. Cabinet officers are much interested in the forming of these social organ!- cations In the departments of which they are the chiefs, tt is said that the government already has benefit* ted, from the fact that the workers In the interior department through the club life, have become better acquainted with one another, and there* fore have exchanged views of working conditions and concerning means which the Germans have been pounding for four days with heavy artillery and with frequent infantry attacks, was evacuated by the French Sunday the new lines withstood the most furious assaultB which have been made by the crown prince's army in many days.

Queretaro, Mexico—The Mexican government has not given the American government permission to use Mexican railways for any purpose seems probable that whatever, said General Candido Aguilar, Mexican minister of foreign relations, after a meeting of the Carranza cabinet. At the cabinet meeting, General Carranza and his advisers discussed the modifications suggested by the learned of the United States in the recent proposals withdrawal from Bethincourt in the for an agreement for crossing the hope of finding the new French line frontier between the United States in this sector not yet strong enough and Mexico by the armed forces of to resist them. the respective governments.

' General Aguilar denied vigorously stories published ln the American press to the effect that the Carranza government had given permission to the United States army forces to use Negro Mexican railways for transportation of foodstuffs and supplies. "Please rectify these falBe statements," said General Aguilar to the Associated Press. "The Mexican government has not given the American government permission to use Mexican railways for any purpose whatever." Canada as a whole has enjoyed wonderful prosperity in 1915, from the products of the farm, the orchard and the centres of industry. No country wrote a brighter page of history in agricultural and industrial development during 1915 than Canada. Nearly a billion buBhelB of grain produced. Taxes in Western Canada average $24 and will not exceed $35 per quarter section, which includes all taxes. No taxes on improvements. When Western Canada was faced with her enormous harvest last fall the military authorities decided that soldiers in Canada could give the Empire no better service for the time being than to assist in harvesting the crops. For tnat reason leave of absence was given to soldiers who wished to work ln the harvest fields, and their labor was an important factor in harvesting the big crops successfully. The necessity for increasing the agricultural production is commanding even more attention ln 1916, and it Is now announced that soldiers in Canada may obtain leave of absence from their military duties in the spring for a certain length of time to enable them to plant the seed for the crops ln every Province of the Dominion. The fact that the Government recognizes the seeding and harvesting of Canada's crops as being of the first importance is perhaps the best evidence that conscription or any increase of taxes which would reduce the agricultural activity of Canada will never be considered by the authorities. Owing to the number who have enlisted for overseas service it has been found necessary to secure farm labor in the United States. It is hoped that fifty thousand can be secured.—Advertisement. AMERICAN SOLDIER IS KILLED Rich Woman Weds Bootblack. The number of marriages contracted since the war by women of enemy nationality with Frenchmen has become so great that the government has decided to ask parliament to pass a bill the result of which will be to deprive all such foreign brides of the benflts of the present French marriage laws.

PINCKNEY DISPATCH / • : •1x- :f The City of Numbered Days By FRANCIS LYNDE Copyright by CharU* S c r f e M ^ SYNOPSIS. —»— Broutllard, chief engineer of the Niquoia irrigation dam, meet* J. Wealey Cartwright and hia daughter, Genevieve, and explains the reclamation work to them.

He decides for the extension Mliapolla, the city of numbered clays, booms.

Would you make the sacrifice? >+*++-++-++*^++*^+<i CHAPTER XIV—Continued. "\ didn't know you could be so convincing." was MISB Genevieve's com ment. "It was splendid! Nobody will ever believe that you are going to go on building your dam and threatening to drown us, after fcbls." "What did I aay?" queried Broulllard, having, at the moment, only the haziest possible Idea of what he had said. "As If you didn't know!" she laughed. "You congratulated every body. And the funny thing about It Is that you didn't say a single word about the Niquoia dam." "Didn't 1? That shows how com pletely your father has converted me. how helplessly I am carried along on the torrent of events." "But you are not," she said accusingly. "Deep down in your Inner consciousness you don't believe a little bit in Mlrapolis. You are only playing tbe game with the rest of us, Mr. Broulllard." Gorman. Mr. Cortwrlght's ablest trumpeter In the real-estate booming, was holding the plaza crowd spell bound with prophetic outlining of tbe Mlrapolitan future. In the middle distance and backgrounding the buildings on the opposite side of the plara, rose the false work of the great dam—a standing forest of sawed timbers, whose afternoon shadows were already pointing like a many-flngered fate toward the city of the plain. But, though the face of the speaker was toward the shadowing forest, his words ignored it. "The snowcapped Timayonis." "tbe mighty Chigringo," and "the golden-veined slopes of Jack's mountain" all came In for enlogistic mention; but the massive wall of concrete, with Its bristling parapet of timbers, had no part In the orator's flamboyant descriptive. Broulllard loved Amy Masslngale with a passion which, however blind It might be on the side of the higher moralities, was still keen-sighted enough to assure him that every plunge be made in the Mirapolltan whirlpool was sweeping him farther away from her. He had transferred the power company's stock, minus a single share to cover his official standing on the power company's board, to Cortwright and had opened an account at the Niquoia National. The ninety-nine thousand nine hundred dollars had since p e w n by speculative accretions to the Ultnded eighth of a million which all meters agree In calling the stepping je to fortune- Re had regarded thfi money—was still regarding It—as a loan; hia lever with which to pry out something which he could really call his own But more and more possession and use were dull* Ing the keen edge of accountability and there were momenta of insight when the grim Irony of taking tbe price of h c = r \a pay an honor debt forced 'teelf upon him. At such momenta be plunged more recklessly, In one of them taking stock In a golddredge company which waa to wash nuggets by the wholesale out of the Qoadjenal Dead, fo soother buying yet oilier options ta the newest suburb of sHrapotta With «»e waning of the day of celebrations the temper of the street thrcngs was changing. It Is only the people of the Latinized cities who can take the carnival spirit lightly; in other blood liberty grows to license and tbe thin veneer of civilized restraints quickly disappears. From early dawn the saloons and dives had been adding fuel to tbe flames, and light-heartedness and good-natured horseplay were giving way to sardonic humor and brutality. In the short faring through the crowded street from the plaza to the Metropole corner Broulllard saw and heard things to make his blood boil Twice before he reached Bongras' cafe entrance the engineer shouldered his way to the rescue of some badgered nucleus of excursionists, and jn each Instance there were frightened women to be hurriedly spirited away to the nearest place of seclusion and safety. It was In front of Bongras' that Broulllard came upon Rev. Hugh Castner, the hot-hearted young zealot who had been flung Into Mlrapolis on the crest of the tidal wave of mining excitement. Though Hosford—who had not been effaced, as Mr. Cortwright had promised he should be—and the men of his clique called the young missionary a meddlesome visionary, ho stood in the stature of a man, and lower Chlgringo avenue loved him and swore by him now and then when somo poor soul, hastily summoned, was to be eased off Into eternity. When Broulllard caught sight of him Castner was looking out over the seething street caldron from hlB commanding height of six feet of athletic man stature, his strong face a mask of bitter humiliation and concern. "Broulllard, this Is simply hideous!" he exclaimed. "If this devils' carnival goes on until nightfall we shall hare a revival of the old Roman Saturnalia at Its worst!" Then, with a swift blow at the heart of the matter: "You're the man I've been wanting to see; you are pretty close in with the Cortwright Junta—is it true that free whisky has been dealt out to the crowd over the bar In the Niquoia building?" Broulllard said that he did not know, which was true, and that he could not believe It possible, which was not true. "The Cortwright people are as anxious to have the celebration pass off peaceably as even you can be," he assured the young missionary, trying to buttress the thing which waa not true. "When riot comes In at the door, business flies out at the window; and, after ail. this feast of hurrahs is merely another bid for business." But Castner was shaking his head. "I can't answer for Mr. Cortwright personally. He and Handley and Schermerhorn and a few of the others seem to stand for respectability of a sort But, Mr. Broulllard, I want to tell you this: somebody in authority is grafting upon the vice of this community, not only today but all the time." "The community Is certainly vicious enough to warrant any charge you can make," admitted Broulllard. Then he changed the topic abruptly. "Have you seen Miss Masslngale since noon?" "Yes; I saw her with Smith, the cattleman, at the other end of the avenue about an hour ago." "Heavens!" gritted the engineer. "Didn't Smith know better than to take her down there at such a time as this?" The young missionary was frowning thoughtfully. "1 think It was the other way about Her brother has been drinking again, and I took It for granted that she and Smith were looking for him." Broulllard buttoned his coat and pulled his soft hat over his eyes. "I'm going to look for her," he said. "Will you come slongTM Castner nodded, and together they put their shoulders to the crowd. Again end again the engineer and his companion had to intervene by word sod blow to protect the helpless In the half-drunken, gibe-flinging crush, and In these sallies Castner bore hit part like a man, expostulating first and hitting out afterward In a fashion that left no doubt In the mind of his antagonist of the moment "It waa little lest thsn s crime to turn your laborers loose on the town on inch an occasion as this." said Castner, dealing out hit words as frankly and openly as he did his blows. Broulllard throggadL "If I hadnt given them ti?» 4ay they would have taken It without leave You'll have to pass the responsibility on to someone higher up." The militant one accepted the challenge promptly. "It lies altimately at the door ot those whose Insatiate greed baa built this new Gomorrah In the shadow of your dam." He wheeled suddenly and flung a long arm toward ire hair nn lahed structure filling the gap between the western shoulders of Chlgringo and Jack's mountain. "There stands the proof of God's wisdom In hiding the future from mankind. Mr Broull lard. Because a little section of bu manity here behind that great wall knows the end of its hopes, and the manner and time of that end. it becomes demon-ridden, irreclaimable!" At another time the engineer might have felt the force of the tersely eloquent summing up of the accusation against the Mirapolltan attitude. Rut now he was looking anxiously for Amy Masslngale or her escort, or both of them. "Surely Smith wouldn't let her stay down here a minute longer than it took to get her away," he said Impatiently as a pair of drunken Cornish men reeled out of Haley's place and usurped the sidewalk. "Where was It you saw them, Castner?" "They were in front of 'Pegleg John's,' in .the next block. Miss Mas singale was waiting for Smith, who was Just coming out of Peglegs den shaking his head. I put two and two together and guessed they were look ing for Stephen." "If they went there Miss Amy had her reasons. Let's try It," said Brouil lard, and he was half-way across the street when Castner overtook him There was a dance hall next door to Pegleg John's barrel house and gam bllng rooms, and, though the daylight was still strong enough to make tbe electrics garishly unnecessary the orgy was in full swing, the raucous clanging of a piano and the shuffle and stamp of many feet drowning the monotonous cries of the sidewalk "barker," who was Inviting all and sundry to enter and Join the dancers. Castner would have stopped to ques tlon the "barker"—was, in fact, trying to make himself heard—when the sharp crash of a pistol shot dominated the clamor of the piano and the stamping feet Broulllard made a quick dash for the open door of the neighboring barrel house, and Castner was so good a second that they burst In as one man. The dingy Interior of Pegleg John s. which was merely a barrel-lined vest! bule leading to the gambling rooms beyond, staged a tragedy. A handsome young giant, out of whose face sudden agony had driven the brooding passion of intoxication, lay, loose-flung on the sawdust-covered floor, with Amy Masslngale kneeling In stricken, tearless misery beside him. Almost within arm's reach Van Bruce Cortwright the slayer, was wrestling stubbornly with Tig Smith and the fat armed barkeeper, who were trying to disarm him, his heavy face a mask of irresponsible rage and his lips bub bllng Imprecations. "Turn me loose." he gritted. "I'll flx him so he won't give the governor's snap away! He'll pipe the story of the Coronlda grant off to the papers? —not If 1 kill him till he's too dead to bury, 1 guess." Castner Ignored the wrestling three and dropped quickly on his knees be side Stephen Masslngale, bracing the misery-stricken girl with the needed word of hope and directing her In low tones how to help him search for the wound. But Broulllard hurled himself with an oath upon young Cortwright and it was be, and neither the cattleman nor the fat-armed barkeeper, who wrenched the weapon out of Cortwrlght's grasp and with It menaced the babbling mur derer Into silence. CHAPTER XV Quicksands A short week after the reclamation service headquarters had been moved from the log-built offices on the gov ernment reservation to the com modi out and airy suite on tbe sixth floor of the Niquoia budding Broulllard re ceived the summons which he bad been expecting ever since the night of rioting and lawlessness which bad marked the close of the railroad cele oration. "Mr. Cortwright would like to tee yon tn hit rooms at the Metropole.' was tbe message the office boy brought, and Broulllard closed hit desk with t snap and followed the boy to Boagrtt The shrewd-eyed tyrant of Mlrapolis was In his shirt sleeves, busily die tattng to two stenographers alternate ly, when the engineer entered the third room of the series; hut the work waa suspended and the stenographers were aeni away aa soon as Brodlllard was announced "Well," waa the aiilllonalre'B greet Ing. you waited io bu ueni tor. didn't you ?' "Why not?"' aald Erouillard shortly. "I have cuy work to do and you bare yours " "Aud tbe two Joba are at opposite enda of the string, you d say Never mind; we can't afford to throw each other down, and Juat now you can tell me a few things that I want to know. How la young Masaingale get ting along''1 "As well as could be expected Car ruthera-lhe doctor aaya he is oui of danger" "H'Hi. It baa been handed In to mt two or three tlmea lately thai the old man la oat gunning for Van Bruce or tor me. Any truth In that?" "I think not. Masaingale la a Ken tuckian, and 1 fancy he ia quite caps ble of potting either one or both of you for the attack on hts son Hut so far he has done nothing-has hardly left Steve's bedside." Mr. J. Wealey Cortwright flung him self back In hia luxurious awing chair and clasped hia pudgy hands over iht top of his head where the reddish gray hair was thinning reluctantly "I've been putting it off to see which way the cat was going to Jump," be ad mitted. "If young Maaaiugale is out of danger, it la time to get action. What was the quarrel about, between btm and Van Bruce?" "It occurs to me trnt your son would be a better source of Information, said Broulllard, evading. "Van Bruce has told me all he re members—which Isfl't much, owing to his own beastly condition at the time He says young Masslngale was threat ening something—something In con nection with the Corontda grant—and that he got the insane idea into hta head that the only way to atop the threat was by killing Masslngale." The sandy-gray eyes of the million aire promoter were shifting while be spoke, but Broulllard fixed and held them before he said: "Why should Masslngale threaten your son. Mr Cortwright?" "I don't know," denied the promoter, and he said It without flinching a hair's breadth. "Then I ran tell you," waa the equal ly steady rejoinder. "Some time ago you lent David Masslngale, through the bank, a pretty large Bum of money for development expenses on the 'Little Susan, taking a mortgage on every thing in sight to cover tbe loan. But when the railroad was an assured fact he learned that the Red Butte smelt ers wouldn't take his ore. giving some technical reason which he knew to be a mere excuse." Mr. Cortwright nodded. "So far you might be reading It out of a book." "In consequence, David Masslngale finds himself In a fair way to become a broken man by the simplest of com mercial processes. Tbe bank holds his notes, which will presently have to be paid. If he can't pay, the bank comes back on you as his Indorscr, and you fall back on your mortgage and take the mine. Isn't that about the Blze of It?" "It Is exactly the size ot it I do want tbe 'Little Susan' and I've got a good friend or two in the Red Butte smelters who will help me get It." Brouillard's black eyes were snapping, but his voice was quite steady when he said: "Thank you. That brings us down to the mention of the Coronlda grant and Stephen Masslc gale's threat—which your son can't re member." "Rtght-o," said Mr. Cortwright. still with predetermined geniality. "What was the threat?" "1 don't know, but the guessing list is open to everybody. There was once a grant of many square miles of mountain and desert somewhere in thit re glon made to one Don Estacio de Hon tarrtba Coronlda, Like those of most of the great Spanish land grants, the boundaries of this one were loosely described and—* Mr. Cortwright held up a fat hand "I know what you're going to say. But we went into all that at Washing ton before we ever invested a single dollar in this valley. As you may or may not know, the reclamation serv ice bureau tried to choke us off. But when it came down to brass tacks. they lacked a witness. We may be tn the bed of your proposed lake, but we're safely on Coronlda land." "So you say,M said Broulllard quietly, "and on the strength of that you havt been guaranteeing titles. Just there is where Masslngale conies In. I imagine. He has spent twenty years or more in this region, and be knows every landmark tn It. What tf he should be able to put a lighted match to your pile of kindling.
