APRIL IN BIRDLAND By L. M. B E N N I N G T O N . This month the birds mate, and many new ones come from the South. This month the boys and girls wander all over the woods and fields looking for the bluets, the violets, hepaticaa and spring beauties. This spring I hope they will not pick too many of our wild flowers, because it is feared that i time there will not be many of our beautilul native blossoms to gather. They have been ruthlessly plucked and thrown aside tor so many years by thoughtless children that a great many o* the most beautiful and valuable species have run out of existence. In their walks in the woods this spring it would be very Interesting to the boys and girls to take up the st.dy of wild flowers and the study GARDEN FOR BUSY WOMAN By E. V A N B E N T H U Y S E N . Every woman ought to have a garden. The change that takes a woman out of doors away from the routine of housework is a good one. it affords health, happiness and a positive relief to the overworked muscles and tired brain of the woman who spends most of her day indoors. There is health for both body and brain in working in a garden. There are a great many flowers that require very little care and give wonderful returns for the little time expended. My advice to the woman who has not much time to give to her garden is to plant only the flowers that will give the best result for her limited care. No lover of flowers can afford to be without a corner for sweet peas. They bloom in wonderful profusion and their beauty and fragrance are too well known to need comment. Plant &s early in the season as possible, and sow the seeds about an inch apart. Cover with about two inches of soil and tamp the soil down firmly. Keep the roots well covered as they gTow, as shallow planted sweet peas often fail in hot weather. Provide Borne brush for them to grow on, water profusely and enjoy their beauty. Allow a corner for poppies Also space for a few china asters, like our grandmothers grew. Nothing is easier to grow, nothing blooms more profusely. Few plants are richer in color or bloom later in the season. The gillyflower is a fragrant oldtimer worthy of our attention. This is a late bloomer, like the aster.

The demand for "green" ducks, which is the term used to describe those grown rapidly and marketed when only eight to twelve week9 old, wlien -hey weigh about four and one-half to six pounds, has been built up in large cities in the East and on the Pacific coast. There is very little demand for such ducks in small cities and towns. Many farmers market their ducks in the fall as spring ducks at a lower price per bird than is received for green ducks in the spring. Ducks may be dressed by dry plck- ! ing, by scalding, or by steaming. Their I condition is best Judged by the amount of flesh on their backs. The methods used in dry picking poultry are also I used with ducks, although the latter are harder to pick. The ducks are genj erally killed by sticking in the mouth I or through the throat with a knife which has a narrow blade about four inches long, and then stunned by a blow on the back of the head with a short club; or the knife may be inserted just back of the eye. To facilitate handling in scalding and picking, a hook is run into the duck's mouth, coming out through the nostril The long tail feathers are left on the ducks, the wings are picked to the first Joint and the neck half way to the head. Long pinfeathers are removed with a dull knife, and the down sometimes is rubbed off with the moistened hand, burned with alcohol or shaved with a very sharp knife. Ducks may be steamed and picked, thus saving the feathers without artificial drying, and as duck feathers are of considerable value, their Bale is quite an important item. The wing and tail feather3 are pulled and thrown to one side before steaming the ducks. Six or eight ducks, which have been stuck and hung up to bleed, are placed on hooks in the top of a steam box or barrel which can be made airtight, and steamed until the soft feathers on the breast come off easily. The length of time to leave them in the box depends on the temperature of the steam, varying vfrom one-half to two minutes. After the ducks are picked they are usually washed and put in ice water for an hour or two to cool and plump Each layer of ducks is packed flat In ice. usually with the keels or breasts down, in barrels, or in boxes holding one dozen each. It costs from five to six cents apiece to pick ducks, but the body feathers and down usually are saved, as white feathers bring from 40 to 50 cents a REDUCE POULTRY FEED COST Fowls T h r i v e on Clover, Alfalfa, Beet*, Turnips and Other Vegetables — A l l Easy Crops. £ f * \ r * Snapdragons Easy to Grow and Effective for the Busy Woman's Garden. the double ones, they are very pretty and are an excellent flower for cutting.

Scalded feathers may also be dried and sold The feed cost of growing Pekin ducks to ten weeks of age, when they weigh from five to six pounds, is estimated at from five to six cents a pound. Green ducks are marketed from April to November and bring from 12 to 30 cents a pound when sold to commission men at wholesale. Disbudding and Summer Pruning. Disbudding and pinching back of the young shoots of fruit trees are the only hope of those who have neglected to prune properly during the fall and winter and yet wish to control somewhat the shape and fruiting habits of the trees for the coming season. On the other hand, many expert growers who have properly attended to pruning, study their trees carefully in the summer and by disbudding and pinching are able still further to control their growth. Some experts starting with very young trees rely almost wholly on disbudding and pinching, because they say that it is more logical to direct the strength of the tree than to allow it to waste Its energies in forming wood which only has to be cut off by a pruning knii'e. These processes, however, call for even greater care than ordinary pruning because, of course, it is easier to injure a growing tree than to deal with a dormant one In the case of older trees, however, disbudding and pinching, of course, are not substitutes for pruning and getting rid of old wood. Once a tree has established old wood, disbudding simply controls the development of new shoots and the saw or pruning hook alone will dispose of interfering branches or old growth. Disbudding should begin when the young buds are large enough to be pinched out with the thumb and finger. The process should be repeated rather than an attempt made to take off many buds at a time. The buds which are left should remain where they will grow up and close up the open tree spaces and bring about a more com- ; pact form Disbudding is often prac- , ticed on fruit trees grown under glass, i where the branches must necessarily be kept within a very small area and where conservation of the vigor of the tree is of great importance. Disbudding is often practiced with advantage on apples, peaches, pears and other fruit trees and vines. Complete information on pruning and disbudding may be secured by writing the editor of the Division of Publications of the United States department of agriculture, asking for Farmers' Bulletin No. 181. SOIL ADAPTED TO ALFALFA In Regions of Heavy Rainfall Natural Drainage M w t Be Provided— Few Good Plana, In the humid sections of the country it is especially important to provide a well-drained soil for alfalfa. In the irrigated districts the problem of drainage to prevent or reduce the accumulation of alkali Is often serious. In the regions of heavy rainfall natural drainage must be provided. It has been found that alfalfa requires much more complete drainage of the soil than do other field crops. Where the underdrains are unable to carry off the rainfall rapidly enough for prompt drainage, it is sometimes the practice to backfurrow. leaving the dead furrows.at intervals of a rod or less. This permits the water to ran off quickly in the event of heavy rains.

Children Cry for F l e t c h e r ' s Caatoria Scarcity of Drugs. The scarcity and high prices of many popular drugs, has caused a decrease in medicine taking, says a London chemist. "This result of the war," says a medical man, "is all for the best. People get into a habit of taking medicines to relieve some little disorder which nature would more effectually cure it they only exercised a little patience. Once the habit is formed it cannot be given up. If high prices compel people to give up their favorite medicines, the war will do real service to the health of the community." Trench Frost Bite. An article in the Lancet discusses the so-called "frost bite" from which many soldiers suffered while fighting in the trenches in Flanders last winter. It is characterized by swelling, pain, and disturbance of sensation in the part affected, but not by the necrosis or death of the tissues which occurs in true frost bite. The names "frigorism" and "frigidism" have been suggested for it. The conditions causing it are cold, wet and interference with the circulation in the leg and foot by tight puttees and boots. A very thin layer of moderately dry air between the skin and the external cold water or ice enables the heat of the circulating blood to keep the parts free from "frigorism," and this can be obtained by wearing bags of very soft thin oilskin on the lower limbs.

"Before the meal was half over, each one passed up her cup to be refilled, remarking how fine the 'coffee' was. The mother asked for a third cup and inquired as to the brand of coffee I used. 1 didn't answer her question just then, for I heard her say a while before that she didn't like Postum unless it was more than half coffee. • "After breakfast I told her that the 'coffee' she liked so well at breakfast was pure Postum, and the reason she liked it was because it was properly made. "I have been brought up from a nervous, wretched invalid, to a fine condition of physical health by leaving off coffee and using Postum.

BANDITS ARE VERY SLIPPERY Experience of Soldiers In Rounding Up Mexican Outlaws 24 Years A90 is Recalled—Artillery Now Mainstay of Every Army in Field. By GEORGE CLINTON. Washington.—Tbe American soldiers across tbe border axe not on Junketing benL it is said here to be the hope and the prayer of the army officials that the Villa followers will stay together and that tbe pursuers can hit them bard once and then capture those who survive the blow. The danger, as Washington views it, is that the bandits will separate and carry on guerrilla warfare in detached bands. The other and greater danger is that the troopers must be followed into Mexico by a huge army ready to take the field against all the soldiers which Mexico can throw against them. When Gen. Leonard Wood's cbief of staff spoke out in meeting to say that if intervention in Mexico is forced an army of 500,000 American soldiers will be necessary to complete the job, it furnished pretty good* evidence that all army officers are not muzzled. Intervention apparently is not the intention of the administration. What will amount to intervention, however, Washington says, will be necessary if the Carranza groups Join the Villa groups and the groups of the other ten or a dozen Mexican leaders. Colonel Glenn K. is said voiced the belief of the officers of the war college who have made the Mexican situation a study for some years. Bandits Hard to Catch. Recently it was told how long it took the United States troops, and there were a good many of them in the field, to round up 350 bandits operating on this Bide of the border in 1892. So certain were the bandits of security from capture, because of the nature of the country in which they were operating, that they would approach close to the camps of the American forces, taunt them and then disappear into the jungles and other hiding places, confident that their retreat was safe. There are some officers now In Texas who took part in the longdrawn out campaign against Mexican bandits 24 years ago. Your correspondent was in the field at that time with D troop of the Third cavalry. He was acting as a correspondent for a Chicago newspaper. Personal witness can be borne that the troops in the field at that time constantly were alert to duty, were constantly in the saddle, scouring great sections of desert country, doing everything and willing to dare everything to effect the capture of the renegades. It was the nature of the country and nothing DOAN'SV,1"M CO. BUFFALO. * Y. It may be what people don't know j about a popular man that makes him ) popular. I »— j else except, of course, the sympathy j which some of the civilian populace felt with the bandits, which made the chase such a prolonged one. Some of the war department officials fear that, although a much larger American force will be In the field on the present occasion than was the case 24 years ago. the circumstances of the former campaign will be repeated and that one hunt may resolve itself into many hunts, each to be prosecuted separately and each to be carried to a successful outcome before the end sought can be reached. One night in March, 1892, D troop of the Third cavalry, in t h e field against bandit followers of Caterino E. Garza, waa encamped at the Palito Blanco ranch in Nueces county, Texas. ~ The camp was not far removed from the edge of the chaparral, which was many miles thick at this point, extending Its tangle of thorny domain well down towards t h e edge of the Rio Grande river. So daring were the renegades and to firm waa their belief that they could escape capture no matter how venturesome they were, that they came dose to t h e camp at night, climbed into meequlte trees and signaled wits lanterns to one another across the camp of tbe troopers. There was no roasrm for tbe signaling sad tt was done sbnpiy to taunt the American soldiers, who would leave camp on tbe instant of tbe appearance of tbe first llgbt and make a determined effort to capture tbe intrude* a, who simply slipped away Into tbe blackness of the night and tbe thinness of tbe chaparral. Every once in a while scouts wonM come Into camp and report tbe appearance of bandits at this place or that place. Instantly tbe troopers t and start on tbe trail, invariably they Stop That Ache! j Don t worry about a bad back. Get rid of it. Probably your kidneys are out of order.

Artillery Arm of the Service. While the main dependence of the advance guaxda of the American forces in Mexico will be the cavalry because horsemen move light ly and quickly, tbere will be ever abreast of the mounted troops batterlee of field artillery, for artillery of this kind has come to be one of the mainstays, perhaps the mainstay, ol the armies of the world- Information recently has been forth coming in Washington concerning the development of the artillery arm ol the service, and it Is certain if preparedness measures are enacted into law that the increase in tbe artillery will ^e much greater proportionately than the increase in any other branch of the service. "The engagement quickly resolved itself into an artillery duel." The words quoted appear in scores of dispatches from the scenes of the conflict in -Europe. It is an artillery war largely. The word "battery" la read by Americans probably five times where the other words, regiment or battalion, are read once. There are batteries of horse artillery, batteries of light field artillery, mountain batteries, siege batteries, and sea coast batteries, although the last named may be eliminated from discussion because thus far, save for some operations in the far East, and a short engagement on the Belgian coast, they have cut little figure in the fighting. The great arm of tbe artillery service is the light battery, for in it lies the chief artillery strength of the armies. The field guns of the American army as formed into batteries and as equipped for conflict are virtually on the same basis as the light artillery of the other armies of the world. When tho field details of tbe American artillery are known, the composition of batteries, the allotment of am munition, the complement of cannoneers, caissons and other adjuncts, it is possible to get definite information of the conditions in the armies now fighting in Europe. In virtually all the armies of the world there are four guns to a battery, a change from the days of the muzzle-loading fieldpiece, when there were six and occasionally eight guns to each battery. Tbe breechloader, with its method of taking up the recoil and with the ease of its manipula tion, burns up ammunition at the rate of twenty-five shots a minute. This is something to be thought on. It means that a shell with its dread charge of lyddite or other high exploslves leaves the muzzle of each piece every two and a half seconds or thereabouts. They are firing today from the field artillery twenty-five shots in tbe time that it took to fire one in the old days, but the havoc today is not twenty-five times as great, because soldiers have been taught and forced to take to cover. A United States standard light battery of field artillery, and it will stand as a type, at war strength has a total of five commissioned officers and 171 enlisted men. There are 60 drivers and 65 cannoneers, four gunner corporals and 13 caissons, one store wagon and limber and four field wagons, a total of 112 draft wagons, 45 saddle horses and 16 mules, making 172 animals. The ammunition is the thing. There are in the caisson body 70 rounds and in the limber chest 36 rounds, while in the "emergency tube%" on each gun there a r e four rounds. So that in each gun section there a r e 106 rounds of "fixed" or made ammunition in the caisson, 36 rounds in the gun limber and four rounds in the ammunition tubes on t h e gun carriage. In each of the four caisson sections there a r e 212 rounds. Thus with a field battery of light artillery there are 1,432 rounds on the firing line and on wheels close by under cover. That figures out 2&8 shots to s rifle. With the ammunition train there are, or should be, four wagons each with 106 rounds, and a t t h e advance supply depot 1,856 rounds, or 464 shots a rifle, raising the ammunition supply on the firing line, in t h e combat train dose at band, in the ammunition train on tbe road and at the advanced sappry depot to »2S rounds a gun. No one knows definitely as yet just what tbe military-preparedness bill aa it finally passes congress will provide for the artillery arm of tbe service. As things seem today, there is aa appearance of an increased strength In tbe ranks of the anUpraparedness members. If appearances are not deeeitfai it s s ems likely therefore that a conv finaUy effected bstwei «01 T Hopes Women Will j Adopt This Habit j As Well As Men I Glass of hot water each morning helps us look and feel clean, sweet, fresh. Happy, bright, alert—vigorous and vivacious—a good clear skin; a natural, rosy complexion and freedom from Illness are assured only by clean, healthy blood. If only every woman and likewise every man could realise the wonders of drinking phosphated hot water each morning, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of the thousands of sickly, anaemic-looking men, women and girls with pasty or muddy complexions; inatead of the multitudes of "nerve wrecks," "rundowns," "brain fags" and pessimists we should see a virile, optimistic tbrong of rosycheeked yeople everywhere. An Inside bath Is had by drinking, each morning before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaapoonful of limestone phosphate in It to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour fermentations and poisons, thus cleansing, sweetening and freshening tbe entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. Those subject to sick headache, biliousness, nasty breath, rheumatism, colds; and particularly those who have a pallid, sallow complexion and who are constipated very often, are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from any druggist or a t the store which will cost but a trifle but is sufficient to demonstrate the quick and remarkable change in both health and appearance awaiting those who practice internal ! sanitation.

On a visit to Amy Massingale at her father's mine Brouillard tells her of his need for money to pay off his dead father's debts and that to be free he would sacrifice anything save his love for one woman. Though his influence is vital to the building of the railroad extension she tells him to be true to himself. He decides for it. Mirapolls, the city of numbered days, booms. Cortwrlght persuades Brouillard to become consulting engineer of the consolidated electric power company in return for $100,000 stock.

Gaasm a n was told off t o bring t h e Indiana, who alone w e r e loyally indifferent t o t h e gold erase, down from t h e crushers. Anson was dispatched t o i m p r e s s t h e w a i t e r s a n d bellboys from t h e Metropole; Leshington was s e n t t o t h e shops a n d t h e bank t o t u r n o u t t h e c l e r k s ; Orislow a n d Handley w e r e ordered t o t a k e c h a r g e of t h e makeshift concrete h a n d l e r s a s fast a s t h e y materialised, squadci: «r t h e m a n d driving t h e work of wreck clearing for e v e r y m a n a n d m i n u t e they could command, with Oaasman a n d B e n d e r t o a c t a s foremen. POT himself, Brouillard reserved t h e m o a t hazardous of t h e r e c r u i t i n g expedient*. T h e lower a v e n u e had a l r e a d y a double, rank of dive*, might tm found, and for once in ihelr lives they should be suowu how othermen earned money. "Shove it tor every umiuie of daylight there is left," he ordered, t r a p - ping out his commands 10 his staff while he was tilling the magazine of his Winchester. -'Fuddle what material there is m the forma, dump the telpher buckets, where they stand, and clean out the mixers; t h a t ' s the size of t h e job, and it's got to be done. J u m p to it, Grizzy. you and Handley, and we'll try to fill your gangs the best way we can." •'You'll be up on the stagings yourself, won't you?" asked G n s l o w . struggling Into his working coat "After a bit. I'm going down to the lower avenue to turn out the crooks and diamond wearers. It's time the> were learning how to earn an honest dollar." "You'll get yourself killed up," grumbled Leshington. "Work is t h e 'one thing you won't get out of that crowd." "Watch me," rasped t h e chief, and he was gone a s soon as he had said it. S t r a n g e things and s t r e n u o u s happened in the lower end of t h e Nlquoia valley during t h e few hours of daylight that remained. First, climb ing nervously to t h e puddlers' staging on t h e great dam, and led by Poodles himself, came t h e Metropole quota of waiters, scullions, cooks and porters, willing but skill-less. After them, and herded by Leshington. c a m e a dapper crew of office men and clerks to snatch up t h e puddling spades a n d to soil t h e i r clothes and blister their hands in emptying t h e concrete buckets Mr Cortwright's contribution came a s a dropping fire; a handful of tree-cutters from t h e sawmills, a few picked up h e r e a n d t h e r e in t h e deserted town, an automobile load of power-company employees shot down from t h e generating plant a t racing speed. Last, b u t by no m e a n s least In nura bers, c a m e t h e h u m a n derelicts from the lower avenue; men in frock-coats; men in cowboy jeans taking it as a huge joke; men with foreign faces and lowering brows and with s t r a n g e oaths In their m o u t h s ; a n d behind t h e motley t h r o n g a n d m a r s h a l i n g it to a quickstep, Brouillard and Tig Smith. It w a s hot work and heavy for the strangely assorted crew, and Brouillard drove it to t h e limit, bribing, cajoling or threatening, patrolling t h e long line of staging to encourage the a w k w a r d puddlers, or side-stepping swiftly to t h e mixers to bring back a d e t a c h m e n t of skulkers at the rifle's muzzle. And by nightfall the thing was done, with t h e loss reduced to a minimum and t h e makeshift laborers dropping out in squads and groups, some laughing, some swearing, and all too weary a n d toil-worn to be dangerous. "Give us a Job if we come back tomorrow, Mr. Brouillard?" called out the king of t h e gamblers In passing; and t h e cry was taken up by others In grim jest. " T h u s endeth t h e first lesson," said Qrislow, when t h e engineering corps was reassembling at the h e a d q u a r t e r s p r e p a r a t o r y to a descent upon t h e supper table. But Brouillard w a s dumb and haggard, and when h e had hung his rifle a n d cartridge belt on their pegs behind h i s desk, h e went out, leaving unbroken t h e silence which had greeted h i s entrance. " T h e boss is taking it pretty hard," said young Griffith to no o n e in particular, and it w a s Leshington who took h i m up savagely and invited him to hold h i s tongue. " T h e least said is t h e soonest mended—at a funeral," w a s t h e form the first assistant's rebuke took. "You take my advice and don't mess or meddle with t h e chief until h e ' s had time to work this thing o u t of hla system." T h e shouts of t h e mob w e r e ringing in Brouillard's ears when h e strode dejectedly into t h e deserted maproom. and t h e cries were rising with a n e w note a n d in fresher frenzies a little later w h e n Grislow came in. T h e hyd r o g r a p h e r ' s blue eyes w e r e hard a n d his voice h a d a t a n g of b i t t e r n e s s in it w h e n h e said: "Well, you've done i t T h r e e m e n have Just come In with a double handful of nuggets, and Mirapolls m a k e s i t s bow t o t h e world a t large a s t h e newest a n d richest o f t h e gold camps." Brouillard h a d been humped over his desk, and h e sprang up with a c r y like t h a t of a wounded animal. "It c a n ' t b e ; Grizty, I tell you IT can't b e ! Steve Massingale planted t h a t gold t h a t I washed out—played m e for a fool to g e t me to work for t h e railroad. I didn't know it until— until—" "Until Amy Massingale told you about i t this afternoon," cut in t h e m a p m a k e r shrewdly. " T h a t ' s all right. The b a r Steve took you t o was barren enough; they tell me t h a t every cubic foot of it h a s been washed over in d i s h p a n s a n d skillets in t h e past few hours. But you know t h e big bend opposite t h e Quadjenal hills; t h e river h a s built t h a t bend out of i t s own washings, a n d t h e bulletin over a t t h e Spotlight office says t h a t t h e entire peninsula is o n e huge bank of goldb e a r i n g grave!." At t h e word Brouillard staggered a s from t h e impact of a b u l l e t Then h e crossed t h e room slowly, groping h i s way t o w a r d t h e peg w h e r e t h e coat h e ted wore m the afternoon was hang* taw. Orlstew saw him take out or the pocket of t h e coat, and the next mom*'!:: the door opened and closed and the hyd rugra;;her was lef! alone Having Deen planned before there was a city to be considered, t h e government buildings inclosed three sides uf a small opeu square, facing toward the great dam. !n the middle of chi; open space Brouillard stopped. Kicked up a lrale mound or earth, and stood the two paper cylinders un n. tide by side. 'J'h«- tempered glow fmrn (he city electrics made a t o n twilight m the little plaza; lie could see t h e wrapper color's of t h e two signal tires quite well. A sharp attack of indecision hart prompted him to place both ol them on the tiny mound With the match in his hand, he was still undecided Amy Mj.ssingale's words came back to him as he hesitated. "Light the blue one when you a r e ready to send me my m e s s a g e of cheer . . ." On the lips of a n o t h e r woman the words might have taken a materialistic m e a n i n g ; the miraculous gold discovery would bring t h e railroad, and the railroad would rescue the Massingale mine and restore the Massingale fortunes. He looked up at t h e dark bulk of Chigringo, unrelieved even by the tiny fleck of lamplight which he had so often called his guiding star. "Take me out of your mind and heart and say which you will have, little girl," he whispered, sending t h e words out into the void of night. But only the din and clamor of a city gone wild with enthusiasm came to a n s w e r him. Somewhere on t h e avenue a band was playing; men were shouting themselves hoarse In excitement, and above t h e shouting c a m e t h e staccato crackling of pistols and guns fired in air. He struck t h e match and stooped over t h e blue cylinder. "This is your message of cheer, whether you take it t h a t way or not," he went on, whispering again to t h e silent void. But when the fuse of t h e blue light w a s fairly fizzing he suddenly pinched it out and held t h e match to the other. Up on t h e high bench of t h e great mountain Amy Massingale w a s pacing to and fro on the puncheon-floored porch of t h e home cabin. T h e girl's gaze never wandered far from a dark area in t h e western edge of t h e town— the semicircle cut into t h e dotting lights and m a r k i n g t h e site of t h e gove r n m e n t reservation. It w a s when a tiny stream of sparks shot up in t h e center of t h e dark area that s h e stopped and held her breath. Then, when a blinding flare followed to prick out t h e headquarters, t h e commissary and t h e mess house, s h e sank in a de spairing little heap on t h e floor, with her face hidden in her h a n d s and t h e quick sobs Bhaking h e r like an ague chill. It was Brouillard's signal, but it was not t h e signal of peace; it w a s the blood-red of revolution a n d strife and turmoil.

STOP EATING MEAT IF KIDNEYS OR BACK HURT Take a Glass of Salts to Clean Kidneys If Bladder Bothers You— Meat Forms Uric Acid. (TO Bt»-CONTlNtTRDj Victor Brouillard knows that h» cannot w i n Amy Massing*!* until he pulls from his feat the mire of -his flranclai •Hekery. How w i l l he extricate himself w!th a clean conscience and a pocketful of mot.ey—or can ha d« It? Eating meat regularly eventually produces kidney trouble in some form or other, says a well-known authority, because the uric acid in meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get sluggish; clog up and cause ail sorts of distress, particularly backache and misery in the kidney region; rheumatic twinges, severe headaches, acid stomach, constipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and uninary irritation. The moment your back hurts or kidneys aren't acting right, or if bladder bothers you, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with llthia, and has been used for generations to fluch clogged kid* neys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neutralJze the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts cannot Injure anyone: makes a delightful effervescent litalawater drink which millions of men and I women take now and then to keep the kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus avoiding serious kidney disease.—Adv.

Of course I could not go to him then, BO my sister-in-law told ime that she thought Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound would cure it. It helped both the Change of Life and the tumor and when I got home I did not need the doctor. I took the Pinkham remedies until the tumor was gone, the doctor said, and I have not felt it since.

Cuttings of the varieties of which the numbers are short can be Inserted now. These may be obtained from the old plants lifted from the beds in the autumn, or a few tops may be taken off the strongest of the young plants. Inserted in light, sandy soil they will soon root on a shelf in a warm house- Cuttings of iresine, coleus, ageratum, heliotrope, verbena, fuchsia, fibrousrooted begonia, etc., when required in quantity should be inserted in a bed of sand made up in a propagating frame with bottom heat. Three inches of sand will be sufficient and if this is made firm, well supplied with water and a bottom heat of 7;" to 80 degrees m a i n l i n e d , many of the cuttings will be rooted in a week and ready for potting up singly in small pots. Remaining in the sand such a short time, they can be dibbled in close together. Lobelias, altermantheras, and mesembryanthemums can also be increased by the thousands in this way. Provided there is good stock of old plants on hand, March is soon enough to commence propagating. Early In February dahlia tubers, of which a large stock is required, may be brought into the propagating house. Placed on the stage, partly burying the tubers in leaf mold, plenty of shoots will soon push out. When these are about three inches In length they should be taken off with a slight heel and if inserted in a sand bed they will soon root. Another method successfully adapted for rooting dahlias. Is to make up a hotbed a yard in height, place a frame on this and plunge the pots of cuttings where there is a nice bottom heat. A list of the quantities of plants required should be made and the numbers entered as they are rooted. This may have much trouble when the time comes for planting out. for a fine complexion you must ao something more than use cosmetics. You must keep the blood pure, the liver and kidneys active and the bowels regular. You must also correct the digestive ills that cause muddy skin and dull eyes. By W. R. GILBERT, Where thousands of plants are grown for positions in the open air during the summer, this is an important operation from March onward. Considerable forethought and knowledge of the work are necessary to obtain the plants in suitable condition and in sufficient numbers, when the time for planting out arrives.

PROHIBITION GOVERNORS. Each of the seven states which out lawed the liquor traffic January 1 ie fortunate in having a governor who is heartily in favor of prohibition and will uphold the law. Governor Carlson of Colorado sayt he will enforce it even to the extent of calling upon the state militia. Gov ernor Lester of Washington urges ar appropriation of $50,000 to be used in enforcement. Governor Withy combe of Oregon expresses contidenct that an overwhelming majority of the citizens of the state mean to see thai the provisions of the law are lived up to and that they may count upon his help to the utmost. Governor Alex ander's YlgorouB championship of the statutory prohibition law of Idaho is well known, and his personal influence was used to secure the referendum on the constitutional amendment to be taken next November. When Governor Hay of Arkansas signed the prohibition bill, he said: "1 believe the most manly act of my life, an act that will mean much to me, to my conscience, to my wife, to my two little boys, and to the people of the state to which I owe so much, was the act I performed when I placed my signature to the bill which gave Arkansas state-wide prohibition." The'*attitude of Governor Clarke of Iowa is indicated by his remarks when he signed the* measure repealing the mulct law and putting into effect statewide prohibition: "The banishment of the saloon ought to mean the emancipation of many a laboring man, the joy of the wife in his home, better conditions and a better outlook on life for his child." South Carolina's governor in his N e w Year's greeting declared that, "With the help of God and the sup> port of the people the prohibition law shall be rigidly enforced so long aa I am governor."

While getting ready to inaugurate a prize essay contest, a W. C. T. U. woman investigated the public local library to Bee what the children would find in the way of reference books, and discovered that of ten books on the temperance shelf seven were against total abstinence and prohibition. Among these were "Religion and Drink," "Drink, Temperance and Legislation," "A Text Book of True Temperance," "Alcohol the Sanction for Its Use," "Prohibition, the Enemy of Temperance," "Prohibition, Its Relation to Temperance," "Good Morals and Sound Government." The local union immediately called the attention of the library board to the inconsistency of permitting the liquor interests to teach intemperance through the city library, when the law expressly provides that the children shall be taught in the schools the evil effects of drinking liquor.

Chaplain McCabe once told the story of a drinking man, who, being in a saloon late at night, heard the wife of the saloonkeeper Bay to her husband: "Send that fellow home; it's late." "No, never mind." replied the husband, "he is shingling our house for us." The idea lodged In the mind of the drunkard, and he did not return to the saloon for six months. When passing the saloonkeeper on the street, the latter said: "Why don't you come round to my place any more?" "Thank you for your kind hospitality," replied the former rictim, T v e been shingling my own roof lately." RUSSIA IS PRESSING. If America is to lead the Tan of civilization into the promised land of prohibition, she must make haste. Autocratic Russia has shouldered her out of the front rank, and it is high time for the voice of the people to apeak— to speak overwhelmingly, and to speak where the voice of the people is heard.

According to this it would seem that a medicine for the kidneys, possessing real healing and curative properties, would be a blessing to thousands. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the well known kidney, liver and bladder remedy, is remarkably successful in sickness caused by kidney and bladder troubles. It is mild and gentle in its action and its healing influence is soon noticed in most cases. There is no other remedy like Swamp- Root.

A woman can keep a secret all right if it la a good joke on herself. ( P r e p a i d by tho United S t a t e s Department of Agriculture.) The brood sow Is the first animal to select In laying a foundation for a herd. The better she Is the greater the chances for success. A good brood sow must possess depth and length of body, a good heart girth, smooth shoulders, well-sprung ribs, and long, deep, well-turned hams. Her sides should be long, deep, and straight. A slightly arched, or straight, broad back Is much desired, as It is much stronger than a low back. The back should carry its width and the side lines should be straight. She should stand up well on her toes and have smooth, straight Joints with hard but not coarse bone, and must have feminine characteristics, which are indicated by a rather small head and ear, a fully developed, even udder, and absence of shields in the shoulders. A brood BOW should show early maturing qualities and have sufficient capacity to do the work for which nhe Is intended. A smooth coat of fine hair and a broad bead with sufficient weight for tier age are good indications of early maturity, if selecting more than one sow, uniformity of the lot is desirable and important. The nearer alike the sows the more probability of the pigs being uniform. In selecting the herd boar the same points are essential, except that the animal should show masculinity. A strong, broad head and neck, sufficient bone, with strong, straight pasterns, hock, and knee Joints, are important He should show early maturing characteristics, and have well-developed testicles. Shields, or thick plates of skin, should not show on the sides of the shoulder before he is one year of age. A strong, slightly arched back, with large heart girth, is essential in a first-class boar, for he must have room for the vital organs, namely, heart, lungs, etc. Remember that the boar is at least half of the herd as far as breeding is concerned, and he Is usually more, so his selection cannot command any too much care or patience. Get a good boar and he will pay you well Dr. Pierce's Pellets are best for liver, bowels and stomach. One little Pellet for a laxative—three for a cathartic—Adv. Half the sheep are really goats. To look one's best and feel one's best is to enjoy an Inside bath each morning to flush from the system the previous day's waste, sour fermentations and poisonous toxins before it is absorbed into the blood. Just as coal, when it burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incombustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken each day leave in the alimentary organs a certain amount of indigestible material, which if not eliminated, form toxins and poisons which are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which are intended to suck In only nourishment to sustain the body. If you want to see the g!ow of healthy bloom In your cheeks, to see your skin get clearer and clearer, you are told to drink every morning upon arising, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, which is a harmless means of washing the waste material and toxins from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, thus cleansing, sweetening and i purifying the entire alimentary tract, before putting more food Into the stomach. Girls and women with sallow skins, liver spots, pimples or pallid complexions, also those who wake up with a coated tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, others who are bothered with headaches, bilious spells, acid stomach or constipation should begin this phosphated hot water drinking and are assured of very pronounced results in one or two weeks. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate costs very little at the drug store but is sufficient to demonstrate* that just as soap and hot water cleanses, purifies and freshens the skin on the outside, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the inside organs. We must always consider that internal sanitation is vastly more important than outside cleanliness, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities Into the blood, while the bowel pores do. Women who desire to enhance the beauty of their complexion should just try this for a week and notice results.

FraneiBco Villa has escaped from the Mexican troop.s that had checked him near Namiquipa and three columns of American cavalry are pursuing him. Already they are almost 250 miles south of the border, and unless Mexican forces bring the elusive bandit to a stand, this distance will be greatly Increased by the close of the week. Villa's success In extricating himself from the dangerous position Into which he had been driven by the American punitive force was related in a detailed report by General Pershing that reached General Funston here. General Funston forwarded the report to Washington without making public any but the essential features. Pershing Divides Forces. Colonel Dodd is commanding the advanced columns that are riding hard after Villa and his men, and General Pershing has divided his forces so as to provide supporting columns alon$ the thinly stretched lines of communications from his most advanced base at El. Valle. From El. Valle, another line is being maintained back to Caaas Grades, from where communication with the border is maintained. General Pershing himself is somewhere south of Casas Grandes directing the work of holding together his forces and directing so far as possible the operations of Colonel Dodd. Cavalry is being used along the lines communicating with El Valle, where a detachment of infantry is stationed. Three aeroplanes are at El Valle and will be used in scouting as soon as the high winds that have been sweeping that part of Mexico for almost a week subside. These winds, according to General Pershing, have made effective assistance by the aeroplanes impossible. Of the eight machines that went into Mexico, two are still out of commission. They were damaged in the flights from Columbus to Casas Grandes. V i l l a the Victor. Details of the operations about Namiquipa that concluded with the escape of Villa were not revealed, but there is little reason to believe that he was badly whipped, or even weakened by the fighting directed against him by the de facto government troops.

Broulllard, chief engineer of the Nlquota Irrigation dam, meets J. Wealey Cortwright and h:a daughter, Genevieve, and explains the reclamation work to them, Cortwrlght sees in the project a big :hance to make money. Cortwright organizes a company and obtains government contracts to furnish power and material for the dam construction. A busy rity springs up about the site. Steve Mastingale threatens to tstart a gold rush if Broulllard does not Influence President Ford to build a railroad branch to the place, thus opening an easy market for the ore from the "Little §u*an" mine. On » vlait to Amy Massingale at her father's rolne Broulllard tells her of his need for money to pay off his dead father's debt* *nd that to be free he would sacrifice anything save his love for one woman. Though hia influence is vital to the building of the railroad extension she tells him to be true to himself. He decides for it. Mirapolis. the city of numbered days, booms. Cortwrlght persuades Broulllard to become consulting engineer of the consolidated electric power company in return for $100,000 stock. Rumors that the government will call a halt on the dam cause Grislow to tell Broulllard that he la leaning to the Cortwrlght side to make the city permanent. Broulllard denies it. Permanent building.In Mirapolis arid a real estate boom are in full swing when the stoppage of work on the railroad threatens a panic.

' >++++++++++++++++++++++++•++++++•++* C H A P T E R X — C o n t i n u e d . "It looks like a run on a bank." said Broulllard. "It is," was the crisp reply. "Garner has beaten everybody else to the home plate, but he couldn't fceep his mouth shut. He's been talking, and every man In that mob is a potential panic breeder. That thing has got to be nipped in the bud, right now!" "Yes," Broulllard agreed. He was still wrestling with his own besetment —the prompting which Involved a deliberate plunge where up to the present crisis he had been merely wading in the shallows. A little thing stung him alive to the Imperative call of the moment—the sight of Amy Massingale walking down the street with Tig Smith, the Triangle-Circle foreman. It was of the death of her hopes that he was thinking when he said coolly: •"You have sized it up precisely, Mr. Cortwright; that la a panic in the making, and the bubble won't stand for very much pricking. Give me a free band with your check book for a few minutes and I'll try to stop it." It spoke volumes for the millionaire promoter^ quick discernment and decision that he asked no questions. "Do it," he snapped. "I'll cover you for whatever it takes. Don't wait; that crowd is getting bigger every minute." Broulllard ran downstairs and across the street. It was no part of his intention to stop and speak to Amy Massingale and the ranchman, but he did it, and even walked a little way with them before he turned back to elbow his way through the sidewalk throne and into Garner's dingy little office. "You are selling Mirapolis holdings short today, Garner?" he asked when be had pushed through the crowd to the speculator's desk. And when Garner laughed and said there were no takers be placed his order promptly. "You may bid in ton me, at yesterday's prices, anything within the city limits —not options, you understand, but the real thing. Bring your papers over to my office after banking hours and well close for whatever you've been able to pick up." He said it quietly, but there could be no privacy at such a time and In such a place. "What's that. Mr. Broulllard?" demanded one in the counter jam. "You're giving Garner a blank card to buy for your account? Say, that's plenty good enough for me. Garner, sancel my order to sell, will you? When the chief engineer of the government water works believes in Miripolis futures and bets his money on em. I'm not selling." The excitement was already dying Sown and the crowd was melting away !roxn Garner's sidewalk when Broulllard rejoined Mr. Cortwright in the tecond-fioor room across the street "Well, it's done," be announced ihortly. adding: "It's only a stopgap. To make the bluff good, you've cot to have the railroad." "That's the talk.** laid the promoter, fsligfctift* tha cigar which the few minutea of crucial suspense bad extin guiahed. And then, without warning "You're carrying something up your sleeve, Broulllard. What is it?" "It is the one thing you need. Mr Cortwright. It 1 could get my own consent to use it 1 could bring the railroad here in spite of those New Yorkers who seem to have an attack of cold feet." Mr. J. Wesley Cortwrlght's heslta lion was so brief as to be almost Imperceptible. "1 suppose that is your way of saying that your share in the table stakes isn't big enough. All right; the game can't stop In the mid die of a bat. How much is it going to cost ua to stay in?" "The cost isn't precisely In the kind of figures that you understand best, Mr. Cortwright," Broulllard said half muslngiy. Then, with sudden vehemence: "It is altogether a question of motive with me, Mr. Cortwright; of a motive which you couldn't understand in a thousand years. If that motive prevails, you get your railroad and a little longer lease of life. If it doesn't, Mirapolis will go to the devil some few weeks or months ahead ol its schedule —and I'll take my punishment with the remainder of the fools—and the knaves." He was on his feet and moving toward t h e door of exit when t h e promoter got his breath. "Here, hold on, Broulllard—for heaven's sake, don't go oft and leave it up in the air that way!" he protested. But the corridor door had opened and closed and Broulllard was gone. Two hours later Mirapolis the phrenetic had a new thrill, a shock so electrifying that the rumor of the rail* road's halting decision sank into insignificance and was forgotten. The suddenly- evoked excitement focussed in a crowd besieging the window of the principal jewelry shop—focussed more definitely upon a square of white paper in the window in the center of which was displayed a little heap of virgin gold in small nuggets and coarse grains. While the crowds in the street were still struggling and fighting to get near enough to read the labeling placard, the Daily Spotlight came out with an extra which was all headlines, the telegraph wires to the East were buzzing, and the town had gone mad. The gold specimen—so said the placard and the news extra—had been washed from one of the bars in the Nlquoia. By three o'clock the madness had culminated in the complete stoppage of all work ?.mong the town builders and on the great dam as well, and gold-crazed mobs were frantically digging and panning on every bar in the river from the valley outlet to the power dam five miles away. CHAPTER XI Bedlam It was between two and three o'clock in the afternoon of the day in which Mirapolis went placer mad when word came to the reclamation service headquarters that the power was cut off and that there were no longer men enough at the mixers and on the forms to keep the work going If the power should come on again. Handley. the new fourth assistant, brought the news, dropping heavily into a chair and shoving his hat to the* back of his head to mop his seamed and sun-browned face. "Why the devil didn't you fellows turn out?" he demanded savagely of Leshington, Anson and Grislow, who were lounging in the office and very pointedly waiting for the lightning to strike. "Gassman and I have done everything but commit cold-blooded murder to hold the men on the job. Where's the boss?" Nobody knew, and Grislow, at least was visibly disturbed at the question. It was Ansou who seemed to have the latest Information about Broulllard. "He came In about eleven o'clock, rummaged for a minute or two in that drawer you've got your foot on, Gristy, and then went out again. Anybody seen him since V There was a silence to answer the query, and the hydrographer righted his chair abruptly and closed the opened drawer be had been utilising for a foot-rest He had a long memory for trifles, and at the mention of the drawer a disquieting picture had flashed itself upon the mental screen. There were two figures in the picture. Broulllard and himself, and Broulllard was to3Sing the little buekskln sack of gold nuggets into the drawer, where it had lain undisturbed ever since-—until now. Morover, Grlslow's news of Broulllard. if he had seen fit to publish i t was later than Anson's. At one o'clock, or thereabout the chief had come into the mapping room for a glance at the letters on his desk. One of the let ters—a note in a square envelope—he had thrust Into his pocket before going out. "It looks as if the chief had gone with the crowd," said Leshington when the silence had grown almost portentous, "though that wouldn't be like htm.

"He plumb raving crazy, like everybody else, but there is something faintly resembling method in bis madness He figures it that we government people are out of a job permanently; that with the discovery of these placers— or, rather, with the practically certain rediscovery of them by the mob—Mir apolia will Jump to the front rank as a gold camp, and the reclamation t>ervice will have to call a halt on the Buckskin project." Leshington's long, plain-song face grew wooden. "You say 'practically certain.' The question is: Will they be rediscovered? Bet any of you a box of Poodles' Flor de near Havana.s that it's some new kind of a flip-flap invented by J. Wealey and his boomers. What do you say?" "Good Lord!" growled Handley. "They didn't need any new stunts They had the world by the ear, as It waa." "That's all right," returned Leshington; "maybe they didn't. 1 heard a thing or two over at Bongras' last night that set me guessing. There was a piece of gossip coming up the pike about the railroad pulling out of the game, or, rather, that it had already pulled o u t " Once more silence fell upon the group In the mapping room, and this time it was Grislow who broke i t "I suppose Harlan is getting ready to exploit the new sensation right?" he suggested, and Anson nodded. "You can trust Harlan for that. He's got the valley wire subsidized, and he is waiting for the first man to come in with the news of the sure thing and the location of it. Whnn ha gets the facts he'll touch off the fireworks, and the world will be invited to take a running jump for the new Tonopah." "It's time somebody was getting busy," snarled Handley. "There are a hundred tons of fresh concrete lying in the forms,-Just as they were dumped —with no puddlers—to say nothing of half as much freezing to solid rock right now in the mixers and on the telphers." Grislow got up and reached for his coat and hat. "I'm going out to hunt for the boss,'' he said, "and you fellows had better do the same. If this is one of Cortwrlght's flip-flaps, and Broulllard happened to be in the way, I wouldn't put it beyond J. Wesley to work some kind of a disappearing racket on the human obstacle." The suggestion was carried out immediately by the three to whom It was made, but for a reason of his own the hydrographer contrived to be the last to leave the mapping room. When be found himself alone he returned hastily to the desk and pulled out the drawer of portents, rummaging in It until he waa fully convinced that the little buckskin bag of nuggets was gone. Then, Instead of following the others, be took a fieldglass from its case on the wall and went to the south window to focus it upon the Massingale cabin, standing out clear-cut and distinct in the afternoon sunlight The powerful glass brought out two figures on the cabin porch, a woman and a man. The woman was standing and the man wa» sitting on the step. Grislow lowered the glass and slid the telescoping sun tubes home with a snap. "Good God!" he mused, "It's unbelievable! He deliberately turns this thing loose on us down here and then takes an afternoon off to go and make love to a girl! He's crazy; it's the seven-year devil he talks about And nobody can help him; nobody-—unless Amy can. Lord, Lord!" face like a wooden iaia£e and euys 'Little girl, you need a mother—or a husband, I bavjij't made up my mmd which.' When he docs make up hia nimd I'm going to shriek and ruu away." "And you flirt!" he protested re proachfully. "'Now itll me about the 'Little Susan;' Is the Bluegrass farm looming up comfortably on the eastern edge of things?" In a twinkling her frivolous mood vanished. "Ob, we are prosperous, desperately prosperous. We have all the improve ments you can see and a lot that you can't see. And our pay roll—-it fairly frightens me when 1 make it up on the Saturdays." "1 see," be nodded. "All going out and nothing coming In. Hut the money Is all here, safely stacked up m the ore bins. You'll get it ail out when the railroad comes." "That is another thing—a thing 1 haven't dared tell Lather and Stevle. When I was in Mirapolis this morning I'heard that the railroad wasn't coming, after all; or, rather, Tig had heard it and he told mo. We were dig ging for facts when you met us on Chigringo avenue—trying to find out If the rumor were true." "It means a great deal to you. doesn't It?" he said evasively. "It means everything—a thousand times more now than it did before." Hia quick glance up into the sud denly sobered eyes of the girl standing on the step above him was a voiceless query and she answered i t "We had no working capital, as I think you must have known. Once a month father or Stevie would make up a few pack-saddle loads of the richest ore and freight them over the mountains to Red Butte. That was how we got along. But when you sent me word by Tig that the railroad com a>any had decided to build the extension, there was — there was — a chance. "Yes," he encouraged.

Most folks forget that the kidneys, iikt; the howela, get biuggibh and clogged and need a flushing occasionally, else we have backache and dull misery in the kidney region, severe headaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders. You simply must keep your kidneys active and clean, and the moment you feel an ache or pain in the kidney region, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good drug store here, take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few uaya and your kidneys will then act tine. This famous salts is made from t h e acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is harmless to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neutralizes the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders.

But Miss Massingale was In a charmingly frivolous frame of mind. "That is the fourth different excuse you have invented for cutting me out of your visiting list not counting the repetitions," she gibed, when he had finally fallen back upon the time demands of his work to account for his late neglect of her. "If 1 wanted to be hateful I might insist that you haven't given the true reason y e t " "Perhaps I will give it before I go." he parried. "But just now f'd much rather talk about something else. Tell me about yourself. What have you been doing all these days wben I haven't been able to keep tab on you?' "Flirting—flirting desperately with Tig, with Mr. Anson and Mr. Grislow. and that nice boy of youro, Herbert Griffith, and with—no. not with Mr. Leshington; he scares me--makes a borrowed money." "Borrowed of Mr. Cortwright?" queried Broulllard. "No; of the bank. Neither Stevie nor ! knew about it until after it was done, and even then father wouldn't explain. He has been like a man out of his mind since Mr. Cortwrlght got hold of him—everything is rose-colored. But you see bow it all depends upon the railroad." "Not so much upon the railroad now as upon some other things," said Broulllard enigmatically "You say your father has borrowed of the bank —is Mr. Cortwrlght mixed up in the loan in any way 7" "Yes; he arranged it In some way for father—I don't know Just bow. All I know is that father is responsible, and that if the railroad doesn't come he will lose everything." Broulllard gave a low whistle. "1 don't wonder that the quitting rumor made you nervous. But 1 think I can lift one of your burdens. What you heard in town this morning is a fact: the railroad people have stopped work on the Buckskin extension. Don't faint—they are going to begin again right away." "Oh!" she gasped. "Are you sure5 How can you be sure?" "I've given the order," he said gravely, "an order they can't disregard. Let's go back a bit and I'll explain. Do you remember.my telling you that your brother had tried to bribe me to use my influence with Mr. Ford?" "As if I should ever be able to forget It!" she protested. "Well, that wasn't all that he did— he threatened to turn the valley Into a placer camp, to disorganize our working force, even stop or definitely postpone the building of the dam." "And you—you believed this?" she asked faintly. "I was compelled to believe i t He let me pan out the proof for myself." "It is dreadful—dreadful!" she murmured. "You believed him, and for that reason you used your Influence with Mr. Ford?" He got up and took her in his arms. and she suffered him. "A few days ago. little girl. I couldn't have told you. But now I can, I am a free man—or I can be whenever 1 choose to say the word. I did it for love's sake." She was pushing him away, and the great horror in her eyes waa unmistakable now. "Oh!" she panted, "is love a thing to be cheapened like that? And your freedom—how have you made a hundred thousand dollars in these few weeks? Oh. Victor, is it clean money?"

It was rid of all the trash by negro children in the neighborhood. Then they planted a vegetable and flower garden on the plot and had fine success with the enterprise. Can't we do something equally good with some of the vacant lot eyesores in this town? The lower picture §hows what can be done with a ragged, good-for-nothing side yard. It took a great deal of persuasion to wake up the owners and tenants of the property, but once aroused they made up for lost time—as the neat garden indicates. This is a lesson for us. F% N UP and Paint Up" bat become a nation-wide slogan in the Interests of homes and towns beautiful since Allen W. Clark, a St. Louis publisher, organized the National "Clean Up and Paint Up" campaign bureau in May, 1912. Mr, Clark, for many years Identified with the Amen- •can paint trade, sought to arouse and organise Into a single national moven e a t the "clean up" spirit which stirs each spring in every normal man and voman and nearly erery thriving com* jneeity. The first year something like LOCK) t o v s * aad cities conducted local clean 'ip Mid paint up campaigns based on jtlftas sugfested by the national bu- 7«*a. This number baa increased each -fmrmtfl in 1915 approximately 6,000 - _ toejnl campaigns were organised.

The creator gave to the country a peculiar charm. Beauty—beauty of blade and blossom, of hill and hollow, of daydawn and sunset—comes as the birthright of every person who is country born. In the springtime nature writes in pink her orchard proclamation of plenty, and in late summer and fall time fills the fields with grains of gold. Sometimes civilisation has cluttered, but never has nature. Whatever there is of ugliness in the great out of doors is man made. Means Better Health. Beauty is a part of the farmer's unearned increment Health, too. should be for him and his—health and happiness, best of ancient blessings so often wished for friends. Because we "absorb environments," a farm clean up day may result In better living, higher thinking—yes, and better health. It may also play no small part in the solution of a big problem. of keeping on the farms of the a large number of agiicultura »x_ trained and efficient men and Such as these will find in their work not only a living, but a life. They will share in the spirit of joy in the excellence of production. There is much work for a farm clean up day. It may be that there are disease breeding places that need attention. The appearance of the barn yard—often such as to suggest that various old vehicles and farm implements had taken fright and backed into the corners—might be changed tor the better. Maybe there 1s a com poet heap—rich in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium and vahiable as a fertiliser if spread over the fields, but in its present place an incubator for Insects and dangeroua as a possible aouree of fever. Flowers and New Paint. If mother is fond of flowers, and usually the (a, the farm clean up day might mean a new flower bed or perhapa a fence fixed so as to protect aa old one. There may be a gate that too long has sagged and creaked or thai needs painting, and it so the R F. D. mail box is sure to need brightening up. Whitewash on poultry or other buildings will work wonders. Before the day's work is done, prompted by a new pride in the place. It may be that the farmer will display the farm name near the main entrance to the place. States, counties, a communities, churches, schools or farmer!' clube may proclaim farm clean op days, but best of all each Individual farmer may have his own. Don't Neglect to Paint. it is apparent to even the casual observer that many property ownere let their rented houses, or houaee for rent, go too long without painting. This neglect makes the houses look unsightly but also hastens the day of decay. A little paint ts a good investment from every viewpoint. It preserves the wood and it keeps the houses rented. The writer visited an niinois town last spring and after a careful Observation found not a single house which was not well and fairly recently painted. There had just been a clean up aad paint up campaign. The Impreasion left was one or a thriving town where a man would like to live and bring up a family. The yards were well kept, with lawns, flower beds and shrubbery, and each nouseholder seemed -to vie with his neighbor in making his place look attractive. New Sterilizing Agent.

Forms Uric Acid. We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble. The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish; the eliminative tisanes clog and thus the waste is retained In the blood to poison the enure system. When your kidneys ache and feel like lumps of lead, and you have stinging pains in the back or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the blad^ tier ia irritable, obliging yoa to seek relief during the night; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts Is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with Hthia, and has been used for generations to flush jtnd stimulate clogged kidneys, to neutralize the acids in urine so It is no longer a source of Irritation, thus ending urinary and bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot mjure; makes a delightful effervescent Hthia-water drink, and nobody «can make a mistake by taking a little occasionally to keep the kidneys clean and active.—Adv.

Navy without adding a ship to it. It took over 8,000 miies out of the trip from New York to San Francisco and changed the highway between London and Australia from Suez to Panama. Efficiency insures against lost motion—it produces the utmost service out of equipment and yields the finest product, at the least cost. Certain-teed Roofing is an efficiency product Every advantage that men, money and machinery can offer is used to increase the production, maintain the quality and lower the cost. Each of the General's enormous mills is advantageously located to serve the ends of efficient manufacture and quick distribution. Each is equipped with the most up-to-date machinery. Raw materials are purchased in enormous quantities and far ahead of the needs ©^manufacturing, thus guarding against increased cost due to idle machinery. This also insures favorable buying, and the pick of the market. Expert chemists at each mill are employed to select and blend the asphalts, and every roll of CERTAIN-TEED is made under their watchful care. CERTAIN-TEED resists the drying-out process so destructive t*> ordinary roofing, because the felt is thoroughly saturated with a blend of soft asphalts, prepared under the formula of the General's board of expert chemists. It is then coated with a blend of harder asphalts, which keeps the inner saturation soft.- This makes a roofing more pliable, and more impervious to the elements than the harder, drier kind. CERTAIN-TEED is made in roDs; also in slate-surfaced shingles. There is a type of CERTAINTEED for every kind of building, with fiat or pitched roofs, from the largest sky-scraper to the smallest residence or out-building. CERTAIN-TEED is guaranteed for 5, 10 or 15 years, according to pry ( 1 , 2 or 3). Experience proves that it lasts longer. General Roofing IVortY*. ALCOHOL AFFECTS A R T E R I E 8 .

W a s h i n g t o n — E v e r y effort is being made by the administration to bring to a speedy conclusion the chase into Mexico after Villa. Orders have been sent to Brigadier General Pershing to lose no time in rounding up the bandit chief. Reports of a disturbing character which have been received from the border have convinced officials that the longer the American forces are in Mexico the graver is the danger of serious trouble with the entire nation below the border. From authoritative sources the information is obtained that the situation is more delicate gf present than • n . ; • . . - • • it has been at any time since the troopers demounted and in t r oops crossed the border.

By GEORGE C L I N T O N . Washington.—Since the war In Europe started thousands upon thousands of decorations of various kinds have been given to the Boldiers of kaiser, king, president or sultan. A few Americans, there are only a few in the service of foreign potentates, also have been decorated, some of them for conspicuous personal gallantry. One non-combatanf American newspa per man has been given a decoration in recognition of bravery on the field. No American who Is In the employ of the government of the United States is allowed to receive any decoration from a foreign state without special permission of congress. It happened that the newspaper man who was given the decoration for bravery on the battlefield is connected with a news gathering association which has a rule of its own that none of its employees shall accept a decoration from a foreign government. Because of the special e'reumstances In the case, this rule was foregone in the case in hand and the correspondent, who had shown courage on a battlefield In Poland, was allowed to receive and to wear the ribbon and medal given in recognition of bis high conduct In the face of danger For AM Kinds of 8ervlces. In the state department there is a case which virtually Is filled with alt klndB of decorations, watches, fobs and other things which It was the intention of foreign governments to present to American officials. The presents of kingdoms, empires or republics which are now 1n the care of the state department were given for all kinds of services. Most of those for whom they were Intended were ambassadors, ministers, consuls, consular agents, or military and naval attaches stationed In foreign parts. Congress once In a while has granted permission to Individuals who are In the state Rervlce to receive decorations and on one or two occasions It has disposed of a hundred or so of the decorations at once hy giving genera! permission to take them and wear them. The gifts now In the possession of the state department represent the accumulation of a year or two and there they wil] stay until congress acts A Little Shop Talk. Once every four years In Washington it is perhaps permissible for the newspaper men to talk shop. There are five Washington chron Iclers now who are having their troubles. They are the members of the standing committee of correspond ents. Their names and those of the papers which they represent are Richard V. Oluahan, New York Times; Le» roy T. Vernon, Chicago News; H. B. C. Bryant, Raleigh News and Observer; Earl Godwin, Washington Star, and William B. Brigham. Boston Transcript There are to be held this year three political national conveLtlons—Democratic, Republican and Progressive. While tbe managers, if they may so be called, of the conventions have final power in tbe matter they act In the matter of assignment of seats in the press stand largely on the recommendations of the standing committee of Washington correspondents Of course this committee doea not attempt to do anything more than to see to it if it can that the newspapers and the press associations get what they are entitled to In the matter of seats at the press tables. The standing committee of correspondents has other duties to perform. The convention seat duty is only a matter of concern once in four years. The committee baa constant work through the years. A new committee is elected Just prior to the convening of each incoming congresa The chief duty of the members is to pass on the applications of the persons who desire admission to tbe press galleries during the sessions of congress Only for the Workers- It might be said here that oo one Is allowed In the gallery eitber In house or senate who is not a bona Ode newspaper correspondent engaged In bis work of collecting and sending out news from the capitol No senator or representative ever tries to gat admission to tbe gallery for the parpoae of hearing the debate, eltbar far himself or Tor his friends. If ha should at* tempt to get a seat in aha taUary or to get a friend a seat tfcara, his desire woaid be thwarted, a a i tfca proper mttteas of nongraanj sssajal uphold in their action in abutting out from the gat lery even so high a personage as s member of congress of thu United Stains. lo the city of Waahington there are about 220 newspaper corre»poudeuu who are entitled to admiaalou to to i press galleries. They represent oewb papers located in towns from Califor uia to Maine and from Wabhingion to Florida In addition to iheae corre bpouueots there are hundreds of oth ers wno are engaged simply lo writing magazine stories, impressions of legia lutioQ and books Correspondent* wOuse *ork is along these lines are not admitted to the press gallery. The press galleries, under the rules of congress, are under the control ot the standing committee of correspond ents. subject to the approval of the speaker of the house of representatives and the supervision and control of the benate committee on rules. It is oot once in a decade that either house or senate tries to effect any change tn the system of government of the press galleries which has been established oy the standing committee of newspaper men Getting the News. Thus far this year ^President Wilson has not resumed his form er semi weekly confeTeuces, cr better, perhaps, conversations with Washington newspaper correspond ents. It was the custom of the correspondents to call on the president on Tuesday morninf and again on Thursday afternoon to get from him j such Impressions as they could con | cernlng matters of national moment. ! The war problem is responsible tor [ the fact that these meetings between • the writers and the chief executive have not been renewed. i In times of diplomatic anxiety when ; the task of a great nation is to main- ' tain its neutrality, it is almost Inevitable that questions should concern themselves with the matters most in the minds of the people. Diplomacy is a delicate subject, and tt is probablo that Mr. Wilson came to the conclusion that it was better to call tbe conference off rather than to make it possible that some misundertandlng of the government's position might be made possible through an Internationa* misconstruction of what was said. When Mr. Wilson first came into office he was guarded and apparently fearful lest he be misquoted. He gained confidence after a while and talked more freely to newspaper men. giving them an insight into the workings of his mind and a certain intimacy with his plans fcr forwarding legislation to which hlr party was pledged. He always was careful, however, not to say anything i'j a proposal form which, as coming from him would, In newspaper parlance, "make tbe first page." One morning at a White House conference at which some thirty correspondents were present things were drifting along rather aimlessly when the president suddenly said that a pernicious lobby was at work in Washington. Then he added that he had datly evidence of the existence of Buch a lobby, and he also said in effect that It was useless for interested ones to say that evil influences were not being exerted to defeat perfectly proper legislation. Virtually this was the first time that Mr. Wilson bad given the correspondents a real story. It was early in his administration. When the president had said what he did, it was instantly suggested to him that if he would allow himself to be quoted It would help things much. Then Mr. Wilson FilGfl PRICES And Good Demand for AH Farm Products. It is no new experience for settlers located in a fertile country such a.n Western Canada, where lands may be bought at very reasonable prices, to harvest a crop that in one season pays the entire cost of their farm. Undoubtedly this was the experience of many farmers during 1915, but one instance may be quoted. A settler who came to Canada from the United States j some years ago decided to add to his ; holdings by buying an adjoining quarter section near his home at Warner, at $20.00 an acre, with terms spread over a period of years. He got th«j land into a good state of cultivation and last spring put the whole quarter section in wheat. When the crop waa , threshed he found that it only took half the wheat on the farm to pay the I whole purchase price of it; in short ! a single year's crop paid the cost of ! the land, paid all the expenses of opi eration and left him a handsome surj plus as profit. This settler had some | adjoining land, and his whole wheat j crop for the season amounted to '• over 18,000 bushels. He is now plan- ! ning to obtain some sheep and invest his profits in live stock which will a-s- ' sure him a good living irrespective of , what the season may happen to be. Canada's financial position is excellent. All speculation has been eliminated, and trading is done on a cash basis, with restricted credit. Detailed figures of Canada's trade for twelve months ending October 31 show how the war is forcing Canadian trade into new channels. One of the most extraordinary changes is in commerce with the United States. A couple of years ago Canada imported from the United States two or three hundred million dollars' worth of goods more than she exported. The balance of trade was all with the Unite States. The balance is rapidly disappearing, and the present outlook is that by the end of this year Canada will have exported to the United States mor than she has imported. The figures for the past four years are illuminating. They are as follows: Exports. 1912 $145,721,650 1913 179,050,796 1914 213,493,406 1915 314,118,774 Four years ago, in 1912, the balance of trade in favor of the United States was no less than two hundred and sixty-seven millions, and this year, the balance is reduced to only thirty-two millions. The figures are extraordinary and reflect the changed and new conditions in Canada. It looks as if for the first time in nearly half a century this year Canada will sell more to the United States than she will buy from the Americans.— Advertisement.

When the charge that a lobby bad been at work and waa at work waa published, many of the senators and representatives made light of the accusation and said that Mr. Wilson would have to work to prove what he had said. Within a few hours the president undertook to prove his charge and the lobby investigation of comparatively recent history was on.

Isn't this country suffering right now from too much of just that sort of thing ? CHAPTER IX The Speedway It was tn the days after he had found on his desk a long envelope inclosing a certificate for a thousand shares of stock In the Niquoia Electric Power, Lighting and Traction company that Brouillard began to lose his nickname of "Heirs-Fire" among his workmen, with the promise of attaining, In due time, to the more affectionate title of "the Little Big Boss." At the envelope-opening mote ent. however, he was threatened with an attack of heart failure. It was scarcely believable. But a hastily sought Interview with the company's president cleared the air of all the incredibilities. "Why, my dear Broulllard! what in Sam Hill do you take us for?" was the genial retort when the young engineer had made his deprecatory protest "Did you think we were going to cut the melon and hand you out a piece of the rind? Not so, my dear boy; we are not built on any such narrow-gauge lines. That's what we are willing to pay for a good, reliable government brake. It's going to be your business to see to It that the reclamation service gets exactly what its contract calls for. kilowatt for kilowatt" "I'd do that, anyhow, as chief of construction on the dam." "You mean you would try to do t t As an officer of the power company, you can do It; as an official kicker on the outside, yon couldn't fease us a particle. What? You'd put us out of holiness? Not much, you wouldn't; we'd play politics with you and s e t a man for year job who wouldn't kick." "Well," said the Inheritor of sudden wealth, still matching the promoter's mood, "you won't get me fired now, that's one comfort When will yon want my expert opinion on your auxiliary dam?" "On our dam, you mean. Oh, any time toon; say tomorrow or Friday— or Saturday, if that hurries yon too math. We sha'n't want to go to work on tt before Monday." Being himself an exponent of the modern theory that the way to do things is to do them now, Brouillard accepted the hurry order without comment Celerity, swiftness of accomplishment that was almost magical, had become the Mlrapolitan order of the day. Plans conceived overnight ; leaped to their expositions in things done as if the determination to do them had been all that was necessary to their realisation. "You shall have the report tomorrow," said t h e newly created consulting engineer, "hat yon can't go to work Monday. The labor market is empty, and I'm taking It for granted that you're not going to stampede my ahorelers and concrete men." "Oh, no." concluded the city bander, "We sbs/nt do that You'll admit—in your capacity of government watch dog—that we hare played fair in that We have imported every workwe've needed, and we shall Ismmore. That's one thing/ us can afford to do—hull the market And it won't be necessary; we have a trainload of Italians and Bulgarians on the way to Quesedo today, and they ought lo be here by Monday." "You are a wonder, Mr. Cortwright," was Brouillard'B tribute to the worker of modern miracles, and he went his way to ride to the upper end of the valley for the exploring purpose. On the Monday, as President Cortwright had so confidently predicted, the train load of laborers had marched in over the War Arrow trail and the work on the auxiliary power dam was begun. On the Tuesday a small army of linemen arrived to set the poles and to string the wires for the lighting of the town. On the Wednesday there were fresh accessions to the army of builders, ajid the freighters on the Quesado trail reported a steady stream of artisans pouring In to rush the city-making. On the Thursday the grading and paving of Chigringo avenue was begun, and, true to his promise. Mr. Cortwright was leaving a right of way in the street for the future trolley tracks. And it was during this eventful week that the distant thunder of the dynamite brought the welcome tidings of the pushing of the railroad grade over the mountain barrier. Also —but this was an item of minor importance— it was on the Saturday of this week that the second tier of forms was erected on the great dam and the stripped first section of the massive gray foot-wall of concrete raised ttJlit in mute but eloquent protest | | i | t t j the feverish activities of the SBtBjfdsV f workers. If the protest were a tht*Jf£ it was far removed. Many things might happen before the gray wall should rise high enough to cast its shadow, and the shadow of the coming end, over the miraculous city of the plain. It was Brouillard himself who put this thought into words on the Sunday when he and Grislow were looking over the work of form raising and finding It good. "Catching you, too, is it, Victor?" queried the hydrographer, dropping easily into his attitude of affable cynicism. "I thought it would. But tell me, what are some of the things that i may happen?" "It's easy to predict two of them; I Some people will make a pot of money and some will lose out." Grislow nodded. "Of course you don't take any stock in the rumor that the government will call a halt?" Brouillard was shaking his head slowly. "I don't pretend to have opinions any more, Grtzzy. I'm living from day to day. if the tall should get big enough to wag the dog—" They were in the middle of the high staging upon which the puddlers worked while filling the forms and Grislow stopped short. "What's come over you, lately, Victor? I won't say you're half-hearted, but you're certainly not the same driver you were a few weeks ago, before the men quit calling you 'Hell's Fire.'" Broulllard smiled grimly. "It's going to be a long job, Grlzzy. Perhaps I saw that I couldn't hope to keep keyed up to concert pitch all the way through. Call it that, anyway. I've promised to motor Miss Cortwright to the upper dam this afternoon, and it's time to go and do i t " It was not until they were climbing down from the staging at the Jack's Mountain approach that Grislow acquired the ultimate courage of his convictions. "Going motoring, you said—with Miss Genevieve. That's another change. Tm beginning to believe in your seven-year hypothesis. You are no longer a woman-hater." "Oh, bally I There are times when yon make me feel as If I had eaten too much dinner, Gristy! This is one of them. Put It In words; get It out of your system." "It needs only three words: Yon are hypnotized. A month ago this citybuilding fake looked as crazy to you as it still does to those of us who havent been invited to sit down and take a hand tn Mr. Cortwright's little game. Now yon seem to have gone over to the other side. Yon hobnob with Cortwright and do office work for him. You know his fake is a fake; and yet I overheard yon boosting it the other night in Poodles' dining room to a tableful of money maniacs as If Cortwright were giving you a rake-off." Brouillard stiffened himself with s jerk as he paced beside his accuser, but he kept his temper. "You're an old friend, Ghlsxy. and a mighty good one—as I have had occasion to prove. It is your privilege to ease your mind. Is that all?" "No. You a r e letting Genericve Cortwright make a fool of you. tf you were only half sane you'd see that *he is a confirmed trophy hunter. WLy, she even gets down to young Griffithand uses him to dig out Information about you. 8he—" "Hold on, Murray: there's a limit and you 11 bear with me if I say that yon are working up to tt now." Brouillard's jaw was set and the lines between his eyes were deepening. "J doaVsjurw what yon are'drtvtng a t but you'd better call tt o i l I can take care of myself." "If 1 thought you could—tf 1 only thought you could," said Grislow musingly. "But the Indications all lean the other way. It would be al) right if you wanted to marry ber and she wanted you to; but you don't—and she doeen t And, besides, there's Amy; you owe ber something, don't you—or don't you? You needn't grit your teeth that way. You are only getting a part of what is coming to you. 'Faithful are the wounds of a | friend,' you know." "Yes. And when the psalmist had admitted that, he immediately asked the Lord not to let their precious balms break bis head. You're ail right. Grlzzy, but I'll pull through." Then, with a determined wrenching aside of the subject: "Are you going up on Chigringo this afternoon?" "J thought 1 would—yes. What shall I tell Miss Massingale when she asks about you?" "You will probably tell her the first Idiotic thing that comes Into the back part of your head. And if you tell her anything pifflous about me I'll lay for you some dark night with a pick handle." Grislow laughed reminlscently. "She won't ask," he said. "Why not?" "Because the last time she did it I told her your scalp was dangling at Miss Genevieve's belt." Th«T had .reached the door of the quarters and Broulllard spun nmd with a shoulder grip emly half playful. I believed you said any such thing as that I'd murder you!" he exploded. "Perhaps you'll go and tell her that—you red-headed blastoderm^" "Sure," said the blastoderm, and they went apart, each to his dunnage k i t I There were a dozen business blocks under construction In Mlrapolis, with a proportional number of dwellings and suburban villas at various stages in the race toward completion, when it began to dawn upon the collective consciousness of a daily increasing citizenry that something was missing. Garner, the real estate plunger from Kansas City, first gave the missing quantity its name. The distant thunder of the blasts heralding the approach of the railroad had ceased between two days. Up to the period of the silenced dynamite thunderinga new industries were projected daily, and investors, tolled in over the high mountain trails or across the Buckskin in dust-encrusted automobiles by methods best known to a gray-mustached adept in the art of promotion, thronged the lobby of the Hotel Metropole and bought and sold Mirapolis "corners" or "lnsides" on a steadily-ascending scale of prices. A strange mania for holding on, for permanency, seemed to bave become epidemic. Many of the working men were securing homes on the instalment plan. A good few of the villas could boast parquetry floors and tiled bathrooms. One coterie of Chicagoans decided to build a six-storied office building, with a ground Boor comer for the Niquoia National bank with modern conveniences and that the chosen building material should be of nothing less permanent than monolithic concrete. In harmony with the same spirit the newly incorporated Buckskin Gold Mining and Milling company plowed deep furrows to bed-rock across and back until the face of Jack's mountain was rigxagged and scarred like a veteran of many battles. In keeping was the energy with which Mr. Cortwright and his municipal colleagues laid water mains, strung electric wires, drove the paving contractors, and pushed the trolley line to the stage at which It lacked only the rails and the cars awaiting shipment by the railroad. This was the situstion on the day when Garner, sharp-eared listener at the keyhole of opportunity, missing the dynamite rumblings, sent a cipher wire of inquiry to the East, got a "rush" reply, and began warily to unload hts Mlrapolitan holdings. Being a man of business, he ducked to cover first and talked afterward; but by the time his hint had grown to rumor size Mr. Cortwright had sent for Brouil lard. "Pull up a chair and have a cigar," said the great man when Brouillard had penetrated to the nerve-center of the Mlrapolitan activities In the Metropole suite and the two stenographers had been curtly dismissed. "Have you heard the talk of the street? There 1s a rumor that the railroad grading has been stopped." Broulllard. busy with the work of setting the third series of forms on his great wall, had heard nothing. "I've noticed that they haven't been fc.asting for two or three days. But that may mean nothing more than a delayed shipment of dynamite," was hts rejoinder. "Is togs* had devilish had." The promoter was Piaoied sMflrSTb 11» pivot chair, and the sandy-gray eyes dwindled to pin points, "We are up against it that's all. Read that" and the promoter handed a telegram across the desk. The wire was from Chicago, was signed "Ackerman," and was still damp from the receiving operator's copying press. It read: "Work on P. S-W.'s Buckskin ex tension has been suspended for the present. Reason assigned, shrinkage lo securities and uncertainty of business outlook In Niquoia." Mr. Cortwright's frown figured as a fleshly mask of irritability. "Let once get out that the railroad peop don't believe in the future of Mirapolis and we're done." Brouillard's retort was the expression of an upflash of sanity. J "Mirapolis has no future; It has ! only an exceedingly precarious present." For a moment the sandy-gray eyes became inscrutable. Then the mass of irritation slid aside, revealing the face which Mr. J. Wesley Cortwright ordinarily presented to his world — the face of imperturbable good nature. "You're right, Brouillard; Mirapolis is only a good joke, after all. Some- •times I get bamfoozled into the idea that it isn't—that it's the real thing. That's bad for the nerves But about this railroad fizzle; I don't relish the notion of having our little joke sprung on us before we're ready to laugh, do you? What do you think?" "It is not my turn to think, Mr. Cortwright." "Oh, yes, it is; very pointedly. You're one of us, to a certain extent; and if you were not you would still be interested. A smash just now would hamper the reclamation service like the mischief; the entire works shut down; no cement, no lumber, no power; everything tied up in the courts until the last creditor quits taking appeals Oh, no. Brouillard; you don't want to see the end of the world come before it's due." It was the consulting engineer of the power company rather than the reclamation service chief who rose and went to the window to look down upon the morning briskness of Chi gringo avenue. And it was the man who saw one hundred thousand dollars, the price of freedom, slipping away from him who turned after a minute or two of the absent street gazing and said: "What do you want me j to do, Mr. Cortwright? I did put my ' shoulder to the wheel when Ford was here. I told him if 1 were In his place I'd take the long chance and build the extension." "Did you—and before you had a ' stake In the game? That was a white man's boost, right! Think you could manage to get Ford on the wire and encourage him a little more?" "It isn't Ford; it is the New York bankers. You can read that between the lines in your man Ackerman's telegram." The stock gentleman In the pivot chair thrust out bis Jaw and tilted his freshly lighted cigar to the aggressive angle. "Say, Brouillard, we've got to throw a fresh piece of bait into the cage, something that will make the railroad crowd sit up and take notice. By George, if those gold hunters up on Jack's mountain would only stumble across something big enough to adver Use—" Broulllard started as If the wishful magic had been a blow. Like a hot wave from a furnace mouth it swept over him—the sudden realization that the means, the one all-powerful, earth moving lever the promoter was so anxiously seeking, lay In his hands. "The Buckskin people, yes," he said, making talk as the rifleman digs a pit to hold his own on the firing line. "If they should happen to uncover a gold reef Just now It would simplify matters Immensely for Mirapolis. wouldn't It? The railroad would come on, then, without a shadow of doubt All the bankers in New York couldn't bold it back." Now came Mr. Cortwright's turn to get up and walk to one of the windows. "Come here," he called curtly, with a quick finger crook for the engineer, and when Broulllard joined him: "Can you size up that little aassrae over yonder?" The "caucus" was a knot ef exotted men blocking the sidewalk la free* of Garner's real estate office on the opposite side of the street The purpose of the excited ones was not difficult to divine. They were all trying te crowd Into the Kansas City man's place of business st once.

BENfSUNGTON. One does not need a large variety of flowers or vegetables to get both pleasure and profit from a garden. I do the planting and much of the work on a plot of about one acre. The products include asters, dahlias, strawberries, tomatoes, celery, string beans, etc. March is none too soon to commence shaping one's plans for the garden. A good catalogue from some reliable seedsman is necessary. My experience has been that It is a mistake to try too many varieties of vegetables. Of peas, tomatoes and cabbage, select two varieties, one early the other late. Of all the other vegetables I find one variety suffices. Order your seeds early, for by the middle of March one can begin operations by sowing tomato, cabbage, and celery seedB in boxes filled with earth. Cigar boxes make a good receptacle for starting plants. They are deep enough and a good size for standing on the window sill. Two hundred plants can be started in one box, The early cabbage and tomato should be started first. If you are going to try celery it should be among the first started. Do not cover the Beed too deep Follow the direction on the package as to depth. Do not get discouraged about re suits, as celery seed germinates very slowly. Keep the top of the earth a! ways moist, and do not look for plants until the third week. When they do show give plenty of light, so that they will not be spindling Tbis also applies to cabbage and to matoes. All of them will grow long threadlike stems, which will be too weak to support themselves, unless given plenty of sunlight. The celery plants can remain in the cigar box much longer than any of the other plants that 1 have suggested for house starting. They grow slowly The tomatoes and cabbage wiil sxm need, larger quarters. As soon as the fourth leaf Is uarder way, they should be planted into> fiats. Mine are about two feet square- and three inches deep. I nailed them up myself, and any other womat witr a few boards, a saw and a hammer, can do as much. Once made they wiU be good for several seasons Do not till with earth to the top. By the time the plants are trans planted in the flatB there will be many days when they can be placed outside for a few hours This should be done whenever possible. MOREL aching bacLs, more kidnap troubles came in March, tfcan in any other month. Slushy sidewalks, dampness, raw wimia and sudden, c&anges cause dull la and. colds.

Pansies, daisies, sweet peaa and verbenas; but where there is no conservatory or greenhouse it is best to wait until March before planting anything but the pansies or daisies. Start sweet allysum now in your window gardeu. Sweef peas are too hard to handle from the window box. Better wait and sow them where they are to remain all season. Frank Ming** W.. St. Joe St..

PRIMARIES DRAW ATTENTION Excitement Far Lees Than Four Years AflO, for Few Candidates for Preal dentlal Nomination Have Headquarters In Capital City. re if yea By GEORGE CLINTON. Washington.—There axe signa of spring in Washington, marked signs of various kinda. The advance guard ol migratory birds has come up the Potomac valley; the big black bird a, purple gracklea, the scientists call them, are stalking across the White House grounds; the hepaticas are peeping from the ground along the bluffs in Rock Creek purk; the forsythia Is bursting Into I loom in the gardens; the crocuses are everywhere, and every other day Inert is a balm In the air which is the forerunner of a heat which before long fill set the asphalt boiling on Pennsyl ?ania avenue. So much for the signs of nature's spring. There Is another sign of spring, however, which is more Interesting to the politicians in Washington than the blooming of Sowers and the return of the birds. It may be called the primary sign of spring, for the awakened interest is in the presi dential primaries throughout the country. Four years ago Washington politicians did not have to wait until the springtime for plenty of excitement and interest specifically political In character. In February, March and April, 1912, there was a political pot boiling near everyone of the principal street corners in the downtown district of this capital city. Lively Spring of 1912. In 1912 every Republican and Democratic candidate for the presidency had his headquarters open tn this city, and the campaign in its intensity, anxiety and interest was like the campaign throughout the country in the late October days of a presidential year. Four years ago the fight for the nomination was on between William Howard Taft, who then was president, and Tneodore Roosevelt. Bulletins were sent forth twice a day from each of the two headquarters. Prominent Republicans from all over the country were pouring into Washington daily and making lively, and on occasion noisy, the headquarters of each of the party candidates. There was life and political news every hour of the day. In the same months of late winter and spring four years ago, all the Democratic candidates for the presidency had headquarters in this town, and in their offices the scenes attending the daily sessions in the Taft and Roosevelt headquarters were repeated. In one place the friends of Harmon of Ohio, gathered. Not far from the Harmon headquarters were those of Wilson of New Jersey, and the efforts in his behalf were just as strenuous and marked by just as much enthusiastic noise as were those in the other quarters of political activity. Just a little way removed from the Wilson headquarters were those of Champ Clark, where the speaker's friends gathered daily to watch the results of the primaries as they came along. The other Democratic candidates, Underwood, Marshall, and the rest, also had their headquarters here, and the noise of acclaim from all the Democratic offices met that which came from the Republican headquarters and the din, if one may so put it, was somewhat terrific. Few Headquarters Thia Year, This year there is a change, but just now enough interest and excitement has been put into the situation to keep the politicians keenly alive to the fact that a presidential campaign is framlnenL There are no Democratic headquarters open here except those of the party itself, for the subdivisions into supporting forces of this candidate or that candidate are no longer in evidence, because seemingly the Democrats have taken it for granted that Woodrow Wilson is to be nomi nated to succeed himself. This may not be a correct view of the case, but it is the view so far as most of the Democrats assembled in Washington are concerned. It Is the fact that presidential primaries have just started In the different states of the Union that baa finally roused Washington to extreme interest in the campaigning. Tola year there are a go xl many Republican candidates for the nomination, but with one or two exceptions they have not opened headquarters in the city of Washington. For the Interest lathe case, the politicians here must look to the primaries as the/ occsr throughout the Union. War Maps in Cabinet Room.

The war mapa In the cabinet room are of particular Interest, because by means of pins with rather large and different colored heads the poaitiona of the armies in the different warring countries are shown day by day Not only are the armies positions shown, but the positions as near as they can be told of the fleets of the warring nations are marked ou the maps of the seas of the world. In addition to the maps of the European countries and of Japan and the places in the East which have been scenes of battle during the present war or of the transfer of islands from one allegiance to another, there is a great map of Mexico which includes in its compasB a map of the frontier of the United States In the SoiTh west. On this Mexican map are shown the positions as near as they can be determined of the fighting factions tn Mexico, and upon the map showing the American side of the border are placed little flags, either yellow, white or blue, marking the camping grounds of the regiments and detachments of United States troops now stationed in places from which they can look across the border into the Mexico of turmoil. A large part of the cabinet delibera tions of today, of course, must con cern themselves directly or indirectly with the questions ot war. Getting the News In Washington. Newspaper correspondents in Wash ington divide prominent men in official life into three classes, "good copy,'' "fair copy" and "poor copy.' Some statesmen—politeness and pol icy compel the use of the word for all national legislators—are will lng often to take the public Into their confidence. Others are willing to do BO occasionally, while out of some others it is Impossible to get a word with any means of persuasion short of dynamite. There are, however, some senators and representatives who will say practically nothing and yet they are classed as "good copy," because their characteristics are such that it Is worth while to write of them if one cannot write from them The outer office of the White House is a better place than the capltol itself to learn into which class congressmen fall, according to the newspaper men s views. The president's visitors every day number from scores to hundreds and a considerable part of these vial tors have their seats after twelve o'clock under the dome of the capitoL When the members of congress have finished their talks with President Wil son, they leave him and pass through the room where ordinarily are gath ered ten or a dozen newspaper men ready enough to learn and to write what the great ones of earth have said to the greater one of the earth. There are some members, notably senators, who ran come from the presidential presence with the prom ise of a friend's appointment to the Court of St. James or to that of Berlin in their possession and yet never betray by so much as a sparkle of the eye or a smile that they have received anything better than the prott ise of the appointment of some friend to a postma8tership at an office which pays a few hundreds a year. There are other senators who can no more conceal the fact that they have picked an appointment plum than they can hide the evidence that they are on earth. Cannot Quote Directly. Washington newspaper men cannot quote any official directly without his consent. Sometimes a cabinet officer or senator or representative will say: "Ton can use this and say that I said ft." but more frequently information is conveyed in words like this: "For your own guidance l'will tell you that such and such a thing is likely to bappen. You can use the Information but don't say from whom it comes." If any newspaper man in this town oversteps the r^ark and quotes directly when be should not do so, he gets Into trouble. If It la known that he has coupled an official" name with a statpment without permission other officials will fight shy of him In the future It is only fair to the corre spondents to say that any mistakes of thia kind generally are mads through s misunderstanding Of course the president of the United States never is to be quoted directly eicept on the extremely rare occasions when he gives permission Most of what the president says, bowever, to the newspaper men. directly or through his secretary, geta Into the papers with tome such advance words at "K can be said on high authority/ or "Friends of the president lot It be known today," or something of tots nature. /3* •?

During ilie prevalence of the footand- mouth disease in t>ome portions of the United States, an embargo was placed upon interstate shipments. This also had an effect upon shipments to Canada, and necessarily an embargo was placed upon them, making it almost impossible for upwards of a year to ship cattle into Canada, from the United States. This was especially hard on the settler. As a result, Western Canada lost a number of settlers, they being unable to take their live stock with them. Canada is practically free from horse and cattle diseases, and the wish of the authori ties is to keep it so. Recently, though, an order has been issued by the Department of Agriculture, removing the embargo, and settlers are now free to take in the number of head of horses or cattle that are permitted by the Customs authorities and the freight regulations. This will be welcome news U those whose intention it L« tc rrove to Canada, taking with them stock that they have had in their possession for six months, and, which it is the intention to use on land that they will farm in the Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta. There are thousands of splendid homesteads of 160 acres each in any of these provinces, that may be had upon the payment of a ten-dollar entry fee and fulfilling the requisite living and cultivation duties. These lands are well adapted to the growing of all the small grains, and besides, having an abundance of grass, and sufficient shelter, they are well adapted to the raising of stock. If one prepares to purchase land, there could be no better time than the present. Prices are low, and particulars may be had from any of the land companion of which there are several, or from the Canadian Pacific and Canadian Northern railways, whose holdings are in the oldpr Bettled districts, and whose terms are exceedingly easy to the settler. What these lands will do in the matter of production cannot be more strongly emphasized than in reading the reports of the crops throughout all parts of the Canadian West in 1915. Yields of 50, 60, and as high as 70 bushels of wheat to the acre were numerous, while reports of yields of from 'JO to 45 bushels per acre were common. Oats as high as 13u bushels per acre are reported, 50 and 60 bushels per acre being ordinary. The prices realized bv farmers have placed most of them on "^asy street." Lately there have appeared articles in a number of United States newspa pers to the effect that there was consjription in Canada, or that such a law was likely to be put intc effect. We have it from the highest authority in the Dominion that there \H no truth in th«^ statement. Sir Robert Rorclen at the opening of Canadian parliament on January 17th, said: "In the first few months of the war I clearly stated that there would n .<t be conscription in Canada. I repeat that statement today." This statement should set at re3t the consciiption lalk that has be^n so freely used to influence those whe may be considering settling in Canada during the war. It has also been said that there was a war tax on land. Hon. Dr. Roche, Minister of the Interior, over his OTgn signature has denied this, and the premiers of the different provinces join in saying "such a report is absolutely untrue, and has no foundation whatever in fact, nor is there likely ever to be any such tax upon land in Canada." The general prosperity of Western Canada farmers and business institutions is sueh that Canada is well able tc take care of the extra war expenses without any direct war taxation. This has been well illustrated bv the- magnificent response to the Dominion Government's recent bond issue, which was more than dotiblv .subscribed for within the first eight hour* of its being offered to the public.

GENERAL CARRANZA REFUSES TO LET UNITED STATES SOLDIERS ENTER MEXICO All Mexico To Be In Arms Against United States Soldiers Crossing The Border Is The General View At The White House THE CARRANZA GOVERNMENT BELIEVED TO BE TOPPLING American Invasion Of Mexico To Get Villa And His Bandits, Who Raided American Territory, Will Not Be Tolerated By Carranza Mexico City—General Carranza issued a manifesto to the nation declaring that under no circumstances would the Mexican government grant the right to the Unted States to violate Mexican territory by sending in an armed force in pursuit of Francisco Villa without consent and the reciprocal privilege being first obtained and admitted. Word was sent to the confidential agent of the Mexican government in Washington to make immediate representations to this effect. Part of General Carranza's text to United States follows: "Because of the assault which Francisco Villa and the bandits who accompanied him made on the town of Columbus, in American territory. burning houses and killing some of the inhabitants, soldiers, as well as civilians, the international situation in these moments is very delicate, as the North American press has excited their people against Mexico, and the government of that country has discussed the situation in the American congress, members of which have advised intervention. The constitutional government, which I have the honor to represent, is also occupied dilligently in an effort to solve this delicate situation, trying at all costs to maintain the dignity and sovereignty of Mexico, and we yet hope that this lamentable incident may be decorously arranged, and that there will be no reason for an international conflict." Washington — The conviction is growing in official circles that the American expedition into Mexico to capture Francisco Villa means the be ginning of intervention. Reports of a decidedly disturbing character concerning the attitude of the Carranza government are beginning to arrive. Throughout these reports the threat appears that within 24 hours after the expedition has gotten well under way all Mexico will be in arms against the United States. What attitude Carranza personally assumes appears from these reports to be negligible. With his government already tottering, it is declared that any prom ises of non-interference or co-operation which he may make are unlikely to bind his followers. Rumors of plots among these followers to overthrow him have been reaching the state department in increasing number. Talking privately those through whose hands these reports have passed express the view that one of two things is going to happen. Either Carranza will find himself forced by popular opinion to resist the invasion or his followers will ignore him and lead the resistance. There is growing suspicion that General Obregon is said to have given ear to the suggestion that he himself should be in Carranza's place. Private advices from the border describe American refugees arriving at El Paso from Chihuahua city as declaring that the Carranza garrison there has taken up the cry of "death to the Gringocs." Carranza officials are declared to have openly stated that American troops will not be permitted to pass through the town. (Conducted by the National Womtua'i Christian Temperance Union.) LABOR AND PROHIBITION. 'The trend of sentiment of organized labor is towards prohibition," aaid Richard Jones of Duluth, a member of the Minnesota state senate, speaking before the Scandinavian Socialist organization. "Some trade union leaders claim that prohibition would make for nonemployment- If this is so why have locomotive engineers to the number of 70,000 indorsed it? If prohibition is Inimical to the interests of labor, why did the southern labor congress, composed of men from nine southern states, refuse to ask for a repeal of the prohibition laws of the South, when requested to do so by the United Brewery Workmen of America? L o - cal labor leaders may insist that the saloon is a poor man's club, but the American Federation of Labor at its convention at Toronto condemned the use of that term. "We are urged not to vote men out of employment in a business which is destructive to society. I would vote those men out of that employment and into something valuable to themselves and their fellow men. I would like to have a chance to vote about 6,000,000 men in Europe out of their present Jobs. If this principle applies in one case why not in another? To advocate peace in Europe would throw thousands of workmen in America who are engaged in the manufacture of munitions of war out of their present employment, but thousands of trade unionists and Socialists are today doing all in their power to spread antimilitaristic propaganda among their fellow workers." EX-SENATOR H. G. DAVIS DIES SEWER BLASTS INJURES TWO Was Twice Elected to the United 'Gasoline Leakage Run. Into Sewer States Senate. Washington—Henry Gaesaway D'ivis, former United States senator from West Virginia and vice-presidential candidate on the Democratic tick- ; et in 1904, died here early Saturday morning after a brief illness, aged wP, years. Although Henry Gassaway Davis earned his first dollar as an employe on a Maryland plantation, it was as a railroad brakeman that he began the active career that put him in the ranks of the Aladdins of American life. From railroad employe he hei came successively merchant, banker, railroad ow-ner, founder of two towns ' and the largest single owner of coal and timber lands in the United States. While accumulating a large fortune he found time to devote to Democratic politics; was twice elected to the United States senate and at the age of 81 was nominated for the vice-presidency. and Caused Explosion.

The explosion was caused by the leakage of 9,400 gallons of gasoline from a 10,000 gallon tank car jthat stood on the Michigan Central 'tracks at Scotten avenue. The gasoline found its way into the sewer and the vaporization caused the upheavel. The damage to city property was I placed, roughly, at 1500,000. However, this figure may be greatly in- 1 creased. | Scotten avenue was torn up from Fort to Jackson streets.

In the Judgment of many, it is difficult to understand why preparedness to meet a remotely possible attack by a foreign foe should take precedence i over preparedness to conquer and I overwhelm a known foe in our midst, | who is every day defying us, and whose toll of death and disease rivals | that of the battlefields of Europe, says the Union Signal, official organ of the National W. C. T. U. There is posi sibly one chance in a thousand that our fathers, brothers, husbands and sons may be called upon at some future time to defend the safety of this country from an alien* enemy, but there is a positive certainty that every day and night of every week until the liquor traffic is put out of existence it will injure thousands of our young men, physically, mentally and spiritually; and that this injury will not end with this generation, but will affect disastrously the next generation. A policy so short-sighted that it neglects to guard against a recognized, Immediate, continuing peril of gigantic proportions in order to prepare for one which may never have to be faced, Is unworthy of enlightened America. Everyone Should ... Drink Hot Water in the Morning Wash away all the stomach, liver, and bowel poison* before breakfast. To feel your best day in and day out, to feel clean inside^ no sour bile to coat your tongue and sicken your breath or dull your head; no constipation, bilious attacks, sick headache, colds, rheumatism or gassy, acid stom~ ach, you must bathe on the inside like you bathe outside. This is vastlymore important, because the . s k i n pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do, says a well-known physician. To keep these poisons and toxins well flushed from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, drink before breakfast each day, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful ot limestone phosphate in it. This will cleanse, purify and freshen the entire alimentary tract, before putting more food into the stomach. Get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from your druggist or at the store. It is inexpensive and almost tasteless, except a sourish tinge which is not unpleasant. Drink phosphated hot water every morning to rid your system of these vile poisons and toxins; also to prevent their formation. To feel like young folks feel; like you felt before your blood, nerves and muscles became saturated with an accumulation of body poisons, begin this treatment and above all, keep it up! As soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and purifying, so limestone phosphate and hot water before breakfast, act on the stomach* liver, kidneys and bowels.—Adv. ;4 SUNDAY REST FOR POLICE, The blotters at police headquarters in Duluth, Minn., are, says Chief Mc-" Kercher, illustrated temperance lectures. On Saturday forty arrests were made, most of them on charges of drunkenness. That included Sunday morrAig until seven o'clock. A clean sheet was put on the blotter Sunday morning at that hour. At eight p. m. there was not a name on it. At 8:30 there was one arrest—a man who was wanted in another town on a charge of passing worthless checks. Saturday, a big day in the saloon business—result, forty arrests. Sunday dry—result, no arrests for drunkenness. "If that isn't an argument for temperance," says the chief, "I don't know what is."

At this statement he noticed a troubled look on the face of a bright little red-haired boy and said kindly: "Why, Francis, what's the trouble? Did you think there were bones in the stomach?"

Everybody in the financial district seems to be on the Job these days. As a rule, the moneyed men of Wall street have been in the habit of taking a vacation twice a year In the winter they nummer at Palm F^ach and in the summer they winter in Switzerland or at some health resort in Europe. Last year was an exception on account of the new situation in the winter created by the war and the active bull market of the summer. At the present time the foreign situation is keeping the men of finance in New York, although their families may be in the South or California.

Brouillard 1s Impervious to hints from the financier. who tells Genevieve thai the engineer "Will come down und hook himself if the bait la Well covertd." Cortwright organizes a company and obtains government contracts to furnish power and material for the dam construction. A busy city springs up about the site. Steve Massln- .gale threatens to start a gold rush if Broulllard does not influence President Ford to build a railroad branch to the place, thus opening an easy market for the ore from the "Little Susan" mine. Brouillard and the company's promoter clash, but on orders from Washington. Brouillard turns over the plana for the power installation.

C H A P T E R V I l ~ C o n t i n u e d . i *v. fca&v To his utter amazement the blue eyes filled suddenly. But the owner of the eyes was winking the tears away and laughing before he could could put tbe amazement into words "You shouldn't hit out like that when one isn't looking; it's wicked," • h e protested. "Besides, the railroad i s coming; it's got to come." "It is still undecided," he told her mechanically. "Mr. Ford is coming over with the engineers to have a conference on the ground with—with the Cortwright people. I am expecting htm any day." "And the government?" "The department is holding entirely aloof, as it should. Everyone in the reclamation service knows that no good can possibly come of any effort to force .the region ahead of its normal and natural development And, besides, none of us here in the valley want to help blow the Cortwright bubble any higher than it has to be." "Then you will advise against the fcuildlng of the extension?" Instead of answering her Question h e asked one of his own. "What does It mean to you—to you. personally, apart from the money your father might make out of it, Amy?" She hesitated a moment and then m e t the shrewd scrutiny of his gaze with open candor. "The money is only a means to an end—as yours will be. You know very well what I meant when I told you t h a t three times we have been obliged to come back to tbe mountains to—to t r y again. I dreaded the coming of your camp; I dread a thousand times more the other qhanges that are coming— the temptations that a mushroom city will offer. This time father has promised me that when he can make his stake he will go back to Kentucky and settle down; and he will keep his promise. More than t h a t Stevie has promised me that he will go, too, if he can have a stock-farm and raise fine horses—his one healthy ambition. Now you know it all." He reached up from the lower step where he was standing and took her hand. "Yes; and 1 know more than t h a t I know that you are a mighty brave little girl and that your load Is heavier than mine—worlds heavier. But you're going to win out; if not today or tomorrow, why. then, the day after. It's written in the book."

President Ford hasn't decided; he won't decide until he has looked the ground over and had a chance to confer with me." She bridged all the gaps with swift intuition. "He means to give you the casting vote? He will build the exten sion if you advise it? Then it will lie in your hand to make us rich or to keep us poor," she laughed, _ "Be a good god-in-the-car, please, and your petitioners will ever pray." Then, with an instant return to seriousness: "But you mustn't think of that—of course, you won't—with so many other and greater things to consider." "On the contrary, I shall think very pointedly of that; pointedly and regretfully— because your brother has made it practically Impossible for me to help." "My brother?" with a little gasp. "Yes. He offered to buy my vote with a block of 'Little Susan' stock. That wouldn't have been so bad if he hadn't talked about it—" "When Mr Ford comes you must forget what Stevie said and what I have said. Qood-by." An hour later Brouillard was closeted In his log-built office quarters with a big, fair-faced man, whose rough tweeds and unbrushed soft hat proclaimed him fresh from the dusty-dry reaches of the Quesado trail. "It is your own opinion that I want. Victor," the fair-faced man was saying, "not the government engineer's. Can we make the road pay if we bring it here? That is a question which you can answer better than any other living man. You are here on the ground and you've been here from the first" "You've had it out with Cort wright?" Brouillard asked. And then: "Where is he now—in ChicagoV "No. He is on his way to the Ntquoia, coming over in his car from El Gato. But never mind J. Wesley. You are the man I came to see." "I can give you the facts," waB the quiet rejoinder. A smile wrinkled at the corners of the big man's eyes. "You are dodging the issue, Victor, and you know it," he objected. "What I want Is your personal notion. If you were the executive committee of the Pacific Southwestern, would you. or would you not, build the extension? That's the point I'm trying to make." Brouillard got up and went to the window. When he turned back to the man at the desk he was frowning thoughtfully, and his eyes were the eyes of one who Bees only the clearly etched lines of a picture which obscures all outward and visual objects. . . . the picture he saw was of a sweet-faced young woman, laughing through her tears and saying: "Besides, the railroad Is coming; it's got to come." "If you put it that way," he said to the man who was waiting, "if you insist on pulling my private opinion out by the roots, you may have i t I'd build the extension." CHAPTER VIII MirapoEs monlrlng third at the circular table. The little dinner had been a gustatory triumph. Nevertheless, when Mlsa Cortwright had gone upstalnj. and the waiter would have refilled his glass. Brouillard shook his head. the power company the government. which will always be the largest consumer, should be represented in some effective way; that Its interests should be carefully safeguarded. It lu not so easy as u might seem. We can't exit tho millionaire saw the refusal he i ttcliy make ihe government a stock During the strenuous weeks when Camp Nlquoia's straggling Btreet was acquiring plank sidewalks and getting itself transformed into Chigringo avenue, with a double row of false-fronted "emporiums" to supplant the shack shelters, Monsieur Poudrecaulx Bongra8, late of the San Francisco tenderloin, opened the camp's first counter grilL Finding monsieur's name impossible in both halves of It. the camp grinned and rechristened him "Poodles." Later, discovering his dual gift of past mas tership in potato frying and coffee making, the camp gave him vogue Out of the vogue sprang in swift succession a cafe with side tables, a restaurant with private dining rooms, and presently a omm odious hotel where the food was excellent the appointments luxurious, and where J a c k - clothed and in his right mind and with money in his hand—was as good as his master. It was in out of Bongras private dining rooms that Mr. J. Wesley Cortwright was entertaining Bronlljard. with Mis* Oenwvieve to make a bar. was too wise to remark it. He was still the frank, outspoken money maker, hot upon the trail of the nimble dollar. Yet there was a change of some kind. Brouillard had marked it on the day, a fortnight earlier, when (after assuring himself morosely that he would not) he had gone down to the lower canyon portal to see the Cortwright touring car finish Its second race across the desert from til Gato. "Of course 1 was quite prepared to have you stand off and throw stones at our little cob house of a venture, Brouillard," the host allowed at the lighting of the gold-banded cigars "You're the government engineer and the builder of the big dam; but you can't build your dam in one day. or in two, and the interval ia ours I tell you, we're going to make Mirapolis a buzz-hummer while the daylight lasts. Don't you forget that." "'Mirapolis?' queried Brouillard. "Is that the new name?" Cortwright laughed and nodded. "It's Gene's name—'Miracle City.' Fits like the glove on a pretty girl's arm, doesn't it?" "It does. But the miracle is that there should be any money daring enough to invest itself In the Nlquoia " "Why, blesB your workaday heart. Brouillard," chuckled the host, "nothing is permanent In this shuffling, growing, progressive world of ours— absolutely nothing. Some of the big gest and costliest buildings in New York and Chicago are built on ground leases. Our ground lease will merely be a little shorter in the factor of time." "So much shorter that the parallel won't hold," argued Brouillard. "The parallel does hold; long time, small profits and a slow return; short time, big profits and a quick return. You've eaten here before; what do you pay Bongras for a reasonably good dinner?" Brouillard laughed. "Oh, Poodles He cinches us, all right; four or five times as much as it's worth—or would cost anywhere else." "That's i t He knows he has to make good on all these little luxuries he gives you—cash in every day, as you might say, and come out whole be fore you stop the creek and drown him. When we get in motion we're going to have Alaska faded to a frazzle on prices—and you'll see everybody paying them Joyfully." "And in the end somebody, or the final series of somebodies, will be left to hold the bag," finished Brouillard "There needn't be any bag holders, Brouillard. Let me put it in a nut shell: we're building a cement plant, and we shall sell you the output—at a good, round price, 1 promise you, but still at a lower figure than you're paying for the imported article now, or than you will pay even after the railroad gets In. When our government orders are filled we can afford to wreck the plant for what it will bring." "That Is only one Instance," objected the guest. "Well, Bongras, here, is one more," laughed the host. "And our power plant is another. You made your little kick on that to Washington—you thought the government ought to control its own power. That was all right, from your point of view, but we beat you to ft Now the reclamation service gets all the power it needs at a nominal price, and we're going to sell enough more to make us all feel happy." "Sell it? To whom?" Mr. Cortwright leaned back in his chair and the sandy-gray eyes seemed to be searching the inner recesses of the querying soul "That's inside information, but I don't mind taking you in on it," he said between leisurely puffs at his cigar. "We've Just concluded a few contracts: one with Massingale—he's going to put in power drills, electric orecars, and a modern equipment gener ally and shove the development of the 'Little Susan;' one with a new mining syndicate which will begin operations at once on half a dozen prospects on Jack's mountain: and one with a lum ber combination that has just taken over the sawmills, and will install oth ers. with a planing mill and sash factory." Brouillard nodded. The gray eyes were slowly hypnotizing him. "But that isn't all." continued the promoter. "We are about to refneor porate the power plant as the Nlquoia Electric Power, Lighting and Traction company. Within a fortnight well be lighting, Mirapolis. and within a month after the railroad gets in we'll be oper ating trolley cars." The enthusiast paused to let the Information sink in. also to note tbe effect upon the subject. Tbe noting was apparently satisfactory, since b» went on with the steady assurance of one who sees his way dearly "That brings us down to business.

So Wisely Distributed That Taxation Will Affect Farmers to a Degree Practically Unnoticeable. So many rumurs have been circulated regarding war taxation in Canada that the statement made by Sir ThomaM White, Canadian Minister Of Finance, ot the Government's plans for raising war revenue should be given the wideat circulation. Sir Thomas made it clear that the revenue will be raised by taxing the profits of incorporated companies whenever those profits exceed seven per cent, and the profits of unincorporated firms or partnerships when the profits exceed ten per cent. On all such excess profit* these companies or firms will have to contribute one-quarter to the Government. Transportation companies, banks, mining, milling, and other companies will be subject to this taxation, but life insurance companies, and companies with less than fifty thousand dollars capitalization, and companies, firms, or individuals engaged in agriculture or stock raising, are exempt, and pay no part of this taxation. The Only other additional taxation proposed is an increase of fifty cents a barrel in the customs duty on apples, and one-half cent a gallon in customs duty on certain kinds of oils. it will be noticed that this taxation Is being applied in such a way that it does not affect farmers in the slightest degree, except, perhaps, through a small increase in cost of apples and oil. The war revenue is to be paid out of the profits of the big firms and companies with capital of over fifty thousand dollars, and even these are allowed seven per cent in some cases, and ten per cent in others, of clear profits before they have to pay any part of this taxation. It will be seen that the whole policy is to place the war expenditure taxation on those who have been making big profits and are able to pay it, and to encourage farming and stockraising by exempting farmers and stock-raisers from the taxation. This ought to set at rest every rumor that the farmer or the farmer's land is being taxed to pay the cost of the war.—Advertisement. *£• IF BACK HURTS CLEAN KIDNEYS WITH SALTS Drfrvk Lots of Water and Stop Eating Meat for a While If the Bladder Bother* You.

They fill a place that trees, shrubs and flowers cannot. They not only screen unsightly objects, but serve as a shade, a protection, and when trained carefully over outbuildings, stone walls and porches they help to make a picture of the home surroundings. Three of the best clinging vines are the Boston ivy, English ivy and the trumpet vine. They are best on brick or stone walls as they are apt to cause decay if allowed to climb over shingles and woodwork. Japanese honeysuckle is of quick growth and great beauty. Its delicate odor and lacelike foliage are desirable qualities. Any of the honeysuckle family are good where dense shade is not requisite. The crimson rambler is another great favorite. It is particularly beautiful when grown over white trellises. Where one wishes to change the location of vines yearly the annuals are necessary. Among the number of beautiful annual climbers the morning glory takes a leading place. The moonflower and cypress and canary bird flower are other beautiful vines, easily grown. To start the seed of Moonflower and Morning Glory cut the seed a little on one side and soak overnight in warm water, plant in a window box or seedbed and transplant out of doors when the ground is warm. Wild cucumbers and Japanese or native hop are hardy^ines and make a dense green shade. Hyacinth bean is also very pretty and a profuse bloom THE WINDOW GARDEN swered simply."—Washington Star.

PUTNAM. Qn a cold, windy day, avoid placing potted plants on the ledge formed by the meeting of the upper and lower sash. Unless the window is more than usually tight, there will be a cpld draft which is always injurious to plants, especially when applied to the roots. Sunshine in midwinter ts always welcome to plant life, yet this should be given in moderation, if the plants are crowded up against the pane, test as to whether the glass may not become too heated. Plant Starvation is a common occurrence in the winter,' especially on the farm. City growers, accustomed to buying not only plant food but even soil, are appreciative of the need of replenishing. But we who have always been accustomed to getting the soil from our own land, sometimes fail to appreciate how quickly the small pot of earth is exhausted of its nutrient qualities. There are prepared plant foods more agreeable to use indoors than fertilizers from the barnyard, but none more efficient. As it is inconvenient to get this fn zero weather, some prefer to fill a sack with fertilizer from the stable and keep this in a crock or pail, covering with water frequently for Immediate USQ. It adds pleasure to watch the growth of the unfamiliar. And too, one learns by this novel class. Be it for foliage, blossom, :brilliancy of color'or fragrance, vary the collection. Some think they Irave better success growing geraniums in tin cans, quart size, than with the regular pots; and their plants certainly justify the claims. Of course the holes must be made in the bottom for drainage.

"You see that building," said a saloonkeeper in Montana. "That is ail I have in the world. I worked hard to build and equip it. There I earn the food and clothing for my wife and babies. You women aay you are going to put me out of business. That will ruin my property. How am I to support my family?" I thought of the many families that his business was making hungry and unhappy, but I said nothing of thiB, for there was to me a pathos in his plea and to him it was a very real problem. In the seven states that recently went dry there are thousands that meet the Bame conditions. They are cast adrift " npon a wholly uncharted sea and they see nothing beyond. I answered: "My friend, when Montana goes dry, and as sure as you and I live Montana is going dry, that lot will remain Just where it is. Unless there is a fire, and against that you can continue to protect your property by insurance as you are doing now, your building will remain where it is. Just lower your bar and make a counter of it. Put- in some more windows » at a slight expense, and sell tea, coffee, sugar, flour, shoes—any commodity—to the very same people who patronize you now and receive in exchange the same kind of dollars. Perhaps, my friend, you have not thought that Mr. Brown over there who now comes to your place nightly and spends his money, may come in and buy a pair of shoes for Ms little Mary, who sadly needs them. This purchase on his part will not unfit him to earn another day's wage tomorrow to buy something needed for his small son, Jimmie. And then perhaps he will come in the next night and buy a sack of flour, taking it home to his wife to use in making bread. As for Mr. Brown himself, he will go to bed and get a good night's sleep and the next day he will be able to earn enough more funds to buy a sack of potatoes. Do yfcjr^ot see that you may sell from the same building to the same people who now patronize you and get even more money? I am sure, too, that your wife will be happier and your children will no longer be shunned.

PINCKNEY DISPATCH ---¾ i>V- %f>.- ^ WElikLR0B8,SeaeUi7i^Trta«TO The Man Who fired the shot that brought down the price of automobile insurance so that the farmers and business men of the State could afford to insure their automobiles against fire, theft, and liability, and who spent his time in obtaining and organizing a oufe automobile insurance company. This Company was organized August. 30th, 1915, thus enabling his first members to join at a time of the year when the best risks could be selected and after the more numerous losses of the summer months bad passed. This Company obtained about nineteen hundred members which enabled them to pass through the winter and the experimental stage with safety, and the large membership and surplus will now enable the Company to commence the spring work with everything in its favor. The revenue from new members will be large for sometime to come. One Company and one overhead expense will keep the cost down to the lowest point, as -the Company is run on the mutual plan, the cost to join is only $1.00 for policy and 25c per H. P. 8tate rating. Anyone desiring an application or an agency should write to the Citizens' Mutual Automobile Insurance Company, Howell, Michigan.—Advertisement.

CYCLONE SEASON NEAR $1,000,003 of Cyclone Losses in the State of Michigan In the Year 1913. This Company paid out $272,000 of losses in the year 1913. It has paid during the past five years 9,539 losses and a total of $435,358 to people who have had their buildings wrecked in the State of Michigan. The Company has about 40,000 members, and $88,000,000 of assessable capital. The Company has made only six assessments in nineteen years; thirteen out of the nineteen not a single dollar collected by assessment from any member of this Company. No assessment was made in the year 1915, and yet the Company had on hand January' let, 1916, about $80,000 in cash. There are about one hundred mutual companies in Michigan covering fire insurance; they save the farmers of Michigan about $1,000,000 over the cost in stock companies each year. The saving in cyclone insurance is much greater.' Because of our large membership with only one overhead expense, mutual insurance against cyclone, in our Company, on account of the low cost and efficient service, has appealed to the farmers and business men of every' section of the State. The many cyclones and tornadoes which have ruined people in nearly every part of the State should be a warning to you. Insure your property whether it be in the city or country, in a safe Company. The cost of a policy of $2,000 is only $4.50. See our agent in your locality at once, or write C. H. Rood, Sec. State Mutual Cyclone Insurance Company, Lapeer, Mich. —Advertisement.

On- a As a maa grows thinner with ago b i s wife msually grows fatter. By GEORGE CLINTON. Washington.—From time to time the White House receives petitions from peace and church societies and from organizations which are devoted to sociological endeavor, urging the president to intervene in behalf of peace on the other side of the water. Some months ago these petitions were received in Washington in great numbers. Then for a time comparatively few came, but recently it is said there has been an increase In the size of the peace-petitioning mall bag. it can be said that the possibility of bringing about peace has been in President Wilson's mind ever since the war began. It is generally believed in Washington, however, that Mr. Wilson feels be cannot take up sucb a matter at the present time, for unquestionably be thinks the nations engaged in fighting one another would consider such a proposal at this time as something like an impertinence. Those who seem to know Mr. Wil son's views say he has his eye and heart watching and waiting for a peace-proposing opportunity, but that he has had no illusions on the subj e c t It can be taken for granted that the president wants to bring about peace for the sake of peace, and, of course, It is natural to suppose he realizes it would be a master stroke for his administration if it were to be the chief Instrument in making warring men lay down their arms. When Japan and Russia were fighting each other twelve years ago, Theodore Roosevelt, who was then president of the United States, found out that both of the warring nations were willing to listen to peace proposals and then he succeeded in bringing about the conference at Portsmouth, N. H., which resulted In the signing of a peace treaty by the two nations. Not Yet Ready for Peace. Mr. Roosevelt felt his way toward making bis proposals It seems to be unquestionably true that Mr. Wilson has felt his way likewise in the present instance, but that he has found the way led up against a stone wall. Here is the way one Washington official has put the matter: "Peace proposals by pacifists, peace ships loaded with amity lovers from bow to stern, tracts with the Golden Rule emblazoned on them, the wails of war widows and orphans and all other things born of sympathy and good will, it is felt today by the admin istration and its advisers, will be of no avail, because of the stern fact that the fighting nations are not ready for peace." It might be said without much danger of going wrong that the central powers today would be willing to submit to peace negotiations because of their favored position at the present time. Germany and Austria are in possession of Belgium, a part of France, parts of other countries and the whole of some of the smaller Btates. Therefore Washington recognises that the central powers are in a good position to be willing that peace should come. On the other hand, there is every indication that neither the English nor the French, nor the Russians, nor the Italians would look on peace proposals at t h e present time as anything but proposals to bring to them misfortunes worse than war itself. In other words, the allied countries probably would hold that even to consider peace at this moment would be tantamount to Intimating a willingness to give up territory and to stop the war at a loss not only of territory, but of prestige. Foreign Affairs Political Issue. For a year and a half after the European war broke out virtually all the members of congress seemed to feel that the-diplomatic dealings of this country with the belligerent nations should not be made subjects of partisan' debate. This feeling now has passed, to a considerable extent, aad the foreign policies of the government are being made the subject of bested discussion In both booses of congress. The Democrat* say the Republicans first made the foreign matters s political issue, and the Republicans retort that t h e weak methods of nsndling roreign matters forced overthesea relations into the nottttcsl field, and that t h e people, taking the matter ap, wmdo fbeir senators s a d Mpro> seutatives follow salt. EHaa Boot ssada his speech » Mow York city a t the a n o a o l a i oonveadon o ftbo Rapnblkaa party. Ho attacked the administration's foreign policy. A few days afterward Senator Lewis of Illinois delivered himself in the senate of an address in support of the administration's diplomatic dealings, and in bis speech be charged the Republicans with trying to make political capi tal out of matters which hud DO place in politics. Then came the Bpeech of Senator Lodge, Republican, of Massachusetts, in which he criti-ized sharply tb~ statu department's dealing and, over the shoulder of the state depart ment. the directing influence of President Wilson Senator Sterling of South Dakota also made a speech along the Lodge lines, and both these speeches were similar In spirit to those made by Mr. Root in New York city. Preparedness Also Political. The Democrats in the senate coun tered against the Republican senators with speeches by Senator Stone of Missouri, chairman of the committee on foreign relations, and by John Sharp Williams of Mississippi. Literally the senate has been a forum for give-and-take speeches with diplomacy as Us text. It has been pretty definitely shown by the speeches already made 1n the bouse and senate that preparedness Is a political issue, even If diplomacy has no such a place. It is also shown that neither Democrats nor Republicans seem to feel that in the matter of preparedness they should not talk politics The reason that preparation for defense has become a political issue is that the Republicans believe in a greater measure of preparedness than do the Democrats, and, therefore, preparedness as a policy has become a party matter Compromise on Preparedness? It seems almost certain today that a military preparedness -bill in the form in which it will finally go to the president for his signature will be a compromise between the houBe measure and the senate measure. As the country knows pretty thoroughly by this time, the plan of Chairman Hay of the house committee on military affairs is to federalize the militia to as great an extent as possible, and thereby to make the state troops a reserve for the regular army, instead of instituting a continental army of volunteers, as was and still Is the senate plan. Chairman Hay was opposed to a large increase in the regular army, but It 1B now believed he, his committee with him and also the house, will agree eventually to an increase in the regular army until it shall reach a strength of about 150,000 men. This regular force, supplemented by a largely increased and strengthened militia, will form the main land forces for defense purposes of the United States, provided, of course, that the expected compromise with the senate Is reached. The senate committee on military affairs, of which Senator Chamberlain of Oregon is chairman, has stood for the Garrison plan of a large continental army of volunteers and for an increase in the regular army to a number much greater than that fixed upon by Chairman Hay of the house committee. It seems today as if the outcome will be that the house will yield to tne senate in the matter of a considerable increase in the regular army and that the senate will yield to the extent of giving over its continental army and accepting as a substitute therefor a federal militia plan. Federalized. Militia Argument. There are army officers of high rank who hold that the militia never can be thoroughly federalized. In other words, they believe that all the laws which congress may pass to bring about federalization will not do what they are expected to do, because, as the army men say, the Constitution of the United States stands in the way. In contravention to the army view, friends of the federalized militia plan say that high legal authorities agree that the United States government, without violating the Constitution, can take over virtually full control of the militia. Moreover, they say that pecuniary aid which will be granted by government to the militia can be withdrawn at any time that the states do not live up to the agreements which the government tnslsts that they shall make, if they are to be the recipients of Uncle Sam's bounty. Provisions for Officers. It is believed the number of cadets at West Point will be doubled by the legislation which it is thought the house and senate will agree upon. It is also expected that government aid in the form of money will be given to a state college in each commonwealth for the purpose of instructing young men adequately in military science. It is held that these schools will give young Americans a sufficient military training- to enable them to take op the dalles of the junior c o m mission grades in the volunteer service of their country la time of trouble.

There is no vital difference between the senate and house and members of both committees be- Meve that when the final bill, which will be agreed on in joint conference committee, has passed both houses, the president will be able to affix his signature to a measure that will do more than he has asked toward building up an adequate national defense.

"The naval general staff states that H. M. S. Moewe, Commander Captain Burgrave Count von Dohna-Sehlodien, after a successful cruise lasting several months, arrived at some home port with four British officers, 29 British marines and sailors, 166 men of crews of enemy steamers, among them 103 Indians, as prisoners, and 1,000,000 marks in gold bars. "The vessel captured the following enemy steamers, the greater part of which were sunk and a small part of which were sent as prizes to neutral ports. "The British steamers Corbridge, 3,687 tons; Author, 3,496 tons; Trader, 3,608 tons; Ariadne, 3,035 tons; Dromonby, 3,062 tons; Farrlngford, 3,146 tons; Clan MacTavish, 5,816 tons; Appam, 7.781 tons; Westbun, 3,300 tons; Horace, 3,335 tons; Flamenco, 4,629 tons; Saxon Prince, 3.- 471 tons. The British sailing vessel Edinburgh, 1,473 tons. The French steamer Maroni, 3,109 tons. The Belgian steamer Luxembourg, 4,322 tons. At several points on enemy coast the Moewe also laid out mines to which, among others, the battleship King Edward VII fell victims." Live Stock. DETROIT—Cattle Receipts, 2,890.

BREWERS ARE INDICTED For Unlawful Spending of Money During Elections. Pittsburg—One hundred and one indictments of which 100 are against 72 brewing companies located in various parts of Pennsylvania, and one against the United States Brewers' association of New York, were unexpectedly returned by the federal grand Jury which has been tnvastigating the alleged political activity of brewers. The indictments, which are the first returned since the investigation opened, charge the brewing companies and the association with conspiracy in the alleged unlawful expenditure of mosey In elections at which rotes for federal officials were being c a s t Detroit—Detroit housewives are contributing daily to the munition factories at the expense of their hus- ! bands who have to pay higher and f higher prices for printed matter. The ! old rags and waste paper that the ragman picks up in the alleys or buys ffor a few cents are no longer going to t h e paper mills, but are being bought up in enormous quantities by the powder mills for the manufacture of gun-cotton. The powder mills have such a monopoly on the rag market of this country that some of the paper mills are actually on the verge of closing down. "Because of the great drain by the munitions factories of the materials from which paper is made the prices of paper of all kinds are advancing at an alarming rate. All paper is at least 20 per cent higher now than a year ago and many kinds are almost twice as expensive. Verdun, via Paris—Nine-inch shells are falling around the Gath bridges and railway stations of Verdun. They come from long range guns—seven miles away—and drop methodically. The German gunners are trying to break the communications through Verdun. Strangely enough not a bridge nor an entrance to the abandoned fortifications has been struck directly. Splinters from shells have chopped some of the structures, but none of them has been destroyed. The city is vacant. It is more like a ghost of a city than a modern, well-built town. There is no civilians and no soldiers here. Firemen have remained, however, and are busy stopping the work of the incendiary bombs. A detachment of gendarmes is on duty as a precaution against any stray plundering. Twenty-two thousand persons locked their doors, and with a small allowance of personal baggage, left the town by order. Transportation was provided for them without deranging the enormous military requirements of the moment One can walk through miles of streets with shattered windows without seeing a person either in uniform or out of uniform.

TELEGRAPHIC FLASHES "The attempt to check emigration from the United States to our prairie provinces by publishing alarming statements about the enormous v a r taxes that are being paid here—$500 on a quarter section yearly—about forcing young men to enlist for the war; about the cold, no cropa and any old, etory that by their extravagant' boldaess might influence men and women from venturing north to Canada, is really in the list of curios to our people; Knowing the country, we can hardly take it Beriously. Our governments, hoe/ever, dominion and provincial, are taking steps to expose t h e false statements that are being made, and thereby keep the channel open fdr continuing the stream of settlers that has been flowing o us for the past decade. We have thought to assist in this work, and to do so purpose giving, from time to time, actual experiences of Americans who have come to Saskatchewan during late years. We give the statements of two farmers in this issue ae follows: — STATEMENT OF M. P. TYSDAL. I lived near Lee, Illinois, for 46 years. I came to Saskatchewan in the spring of 1912 and bought land near Briercrest I have farmed this land, 1,680 acres, ever since. I have had grand crops. In 1914 I had 100 acres of wheat that yielded 40 bushels to the acre. I sold this wheat at $1.50 per bushel. I like the country and my neighbors. My taxes on each quarter section (160 acres) are about $32 a year. This covers municipal tax, school tax, hall insurance tax—everything. There is no war tax, so-called. I like the laws in force here. There is no compulsion to m i in any way. I am just as independent here as I was in Illinois, and I feel that my family and I are Just as well protected by the laws of the province as we were ID our )ld home in Illinois. What I earn here is my own. I have seven children and they take their places at school, in sports and at all public gatherings the same as the Canadian born. (Signed) M. P. TYSDAL. February 9th, 1916. STATEMENT OF-STEVE SCHWEITZBERGER I was born in Wisconsin, but moved with my parents when a boy to Stephen Co., Iowa. I was there farmin for 50 years. I sold my land then for over $200 an acre. I moved to Saskatchewan, and located near Briercrest in the spring of 1912. I bought a half section of land. I have good neighbors. I feel quite at home here the same as in Iowa. We have perfect safety and no trouble in living up to the laws in force. My taxes are about $65 a year, on the half section for everything. I have had splendid crops. Wheat In 1915 yielded me over 50 bushels to the acre. That is more than I ever had in Iowa and yet the land there costs four times as much as it does here. The man who comes here now and buys land at $50 an acre or less gets a bargain. (Signed) S.

If you were in love with a girl and t beast of a man, who had the power to get you fired from your job, made a smirking remark about her to you, would you smash him In the jaw and kick him out of your office— even if the act caused an indefinite postponement of your wedding? CHAPTER V—Continued. "I can't believe it, Murray. It's * leaf out of the book of Bedlam! Take a fair shot at It and see where the bullet lands: this entire crazy fake is built* upon one solitary, lonesome fact—the fact that we're here, with a job on our hands big enough to create an active, present-moment market for labor and material. There is absolutely nothing else behind the bubble blowing: if we were not here the Nlquola Improvement company would never have been heard of!" Grlslow laughed. "Your arguing that twice two makes four doesn't change the iridescent hue of the bubble/' he volunteered. "If big money has seen a chance to skin somebody, the mere fact that the end of the world is due to come along down the pike some day isn't going to cut any obstructing figure. We'll all be buying and selling corner lots in Hosford's new city before we're a month older. Don't you believe it?" "I'll believe it when 1 Bee it," was Brouillard's reply; and with this the matter rested for the moment It was la*ter In the day, an hour or so after the serving of the hearty supper in the engineers' mess tent, that BroulUard was given to see another and still less tolerable side of his temporary guest Hosford had come into the office to plant himself solidly in the makeshift easy chair for the smoking of a big, black after-supper cigar. "I've been looking over your rules and regulations, BroulUard," he began, after an interval of silence which BroulUard had been careful not to break. "You're making a capital mistake in trying to transplant the old Connecticut blue laws out here. Your workingmen ought to have the right to spend their money in any way thai suits 'em." Brouinard was pointedly occupying himself at his desk, but he looked up long enough to say: "Whisky, you mean?" "That and other things. They tell me you don't allow any open gambling or any women here outside of the families of the workmen." "We don't," was the short rejoinder. -That won't hold water after we get things fairly in motion." " v l t will have to hold water aa far *Jg) we are concerned, if I have to build ; * stockade around the camp," snapped "Srooillard.

"When I find a man bearing down hard on all the little wloes, it always makes me wonder V"%hat's the name of the corking big one ' J f | Is trying to cover up." ^ B l n c e there was obviously no peaceful reply to be made to this, Brouillard best lower over bis work and amid nothing. At every fresh step in the forced acquaintance the newcomer was p a i n ^ V ^ g 1 ? developing new aa- Sooneror later. Brouillard . it would come to an open ruptare. bot be was hoping that the actual KtTHrles could be postponed After Hosford bad worn out bis porery welcome as a gmeet ta the brother from that mine up on the south mountain—Massingale, isn't it? By Jove! she fairly made my mouth water!" Inasmuch as no man can read fieldnotes when the page has suddenly become a red blur, Brouillard looked up. "You are my guest, In a way, Mr. Hosford; for that reason I can't very well tell you what I think of~ you." So much he was able to say quietly. Then the control mechanism burned out in a flash of fiery rage and he cursed the guest fluently and comprehensively, winding up with a crude and savage threat of dismemberment if he should ever venture so much as to name Miss Massingale again in the threatener's hearing. Hosford sat up slowly, and his big face turned darkly red. "Well!" he broke out "So you're that kind of a fire-eater, are you? I didn't suppose anything like that ever happened outside of the ten-cent shockers, wake up, man; this is the twentieth century we're living in. Don't look at me that way!" But the wave of insane wrath was already subsiding, and Brouillard, half ashamed of the momentary lapse into savagery, was onve more scowling down at the pages of his notebook, when the door opened and Qulnlan, .the operator, came in with a communication fresh from the Washington wire. The message was an indirect reply to Hosford's telegraphed appeal to the higher powers. Brouillard read it, stuck it upon the file, and took a roll of blueprints from the bottom drawer of bis desk. "Here are the drawings for your power Installation, Mr. Hosford,** he said, handing the roll to the man in the chair. And a little later he went out to smoke a pipe In the open air, leaving the message of inquiry he had Intended to send unwritten. CHAPTER VI Symptomatic i For some few minutes the two on the cabin porch made no attempt to talk, but when the rumbling thunder of the ore-car which the elder Massingale was pushing ahead of him into the mine had died away in the subterranean distances Brouillard began again. "1 do get your point of view—some times," he said. "Civilization, or what stands for i t does have a way of shrinking into littleness, not to say cheapness, when one can get the proper perspective. And your life up here on Chigringo has given you the needful detached point of view." The trouble shadows in the eyes of the young woman who was sitting in the fishnet hammock gave place to a smile of gentle derision. "Do you call that civilization r she demanded, indicating the straggling new town spreading itself, maplike, in the valley below. "I suppose it is—one form of i t At least it is civilisation In the making. Everything has to have some sort of a beginning." Miss Massingale acquiesced in a little uptilt of her perfectly rounded chin. ^ "Just the same, you don't pretend to say you are enjoying it" she said la manifest deprecation. "Oh. I dont know. My work is down there. A few weeks ago I waa righteously h o t It seemed so crudely unnecessary to start a pigeon-plocking match at this distance from Wan street" "But now," she queried—"now, I suppose, you have become reconciled r *1 am growing more philosophical, let us say. There are Just about so many pigeons to be plucked, anyway; they'd molt if they weren't plucked. And NT may as well be dose here as on the stock exchange, when you come to think of i t " **1 like you least when you talk that way," said the young woman in the hammock, with open-eyed trankaeae, "Do you do it aa other men dot—just to hear how it sound*?" Broofflaxd, sitting on the top step of the porch, leaned his head agalmet the porch post and langhed "You know too much—a lot too for a person.of your tender he asserted. "Which aaseee of the flharmhtg oonocttoa am a 'collection of contradictions.'" Brouillard'8 gaze went past the shapely little figure in the string hammock to lose itself in the far Tlmanyonl distances. "You are a bundle of surprises." be said, letting the musing thougbt «llp into speech. "What can you possibly know about my thoughts?" She made a funny little grimace at him. "It was 'contradictions' a moment ago and now it is 'surprises.' Which reminds me, you haven't told me why I am a 'collection.'" •*0h. I can catalogue them if you push me to i t One minute you are the Madonna lady that I can t recall, calm, reposeful, truthful, and all that, you know—so truthful that those childlike eyes of yours would make a stuttering imbecile of the man who should come to you with a lie in hia mouth." "And the next minute?" "The next minute you are a witch, laughing at the man's little weaknesses, putting your finger on tbem as accurately as if you could read tits soul, holding them up to your ridicule and—what's much worae—to bis own. AT such times your insight or whatever you choose to call i t is enough to give a man a fit of 'seeing things.' " Her laugh was like a schoolgirl's, light-hearted, ringing, deliciously unrestrained/ "What a picture!" she commented. And then: "I can draw a better one of you, Monsieur Victor de Brouillard." "Do i f he dared. "Very well, then: Once upon a time —it was a good while ago, I'm afraid— you were a very upright young man You would cheerfully have died for s principle in those days, and you would have allowed the enemy to cut you up into cunning little inch cubes before you would have admitted that any pigeon was ever made to be plucked." He was smiling mirthlessly, with the black mustaches taking the sardonic upcurve. "Then what happened?" "One of two things, or maybe both of them. You were pushed out into the life race with some sort of a handicap. I don't know what It was—- or is. Is that true?" He nodded gravely. "It is all true enough. You haven't added anything more than a graceful little touch here and there. Who has been telling you all these things about me? Not Grizzy?" "No, not Murray Grlslow; It was the man you think you know best in ail the world—who is also probably the one you know the least—yourself." "Good heavens! Am I really such a transparent egoist as all that?" "All men are egoists," she answered calmly. "In some the ego Is sound and clear-eyed and strong; in others it is weak—in the same way that passion is weak; it will sacrifice all tt bas or hopes to have in some sudden fury of self-assertion." She sat up and put her hands to her hair, and he was free to look away, down upon the great ditch where the endless chain of concrete buckets added to the deep and widespread foundations of the dam. Across the river a group of hidden sawmills sang their raucous song. In the middle distance the caoip-town city spread its roughly indicated streets over the valley level, the tall chimney stacks of the new cement plant were rising, and from the quarries beyond the plant the dull thunder of the blasts drifted up. This was not Broulllard's first visit to the cabin on the Massingale claim by many. In the earliest stages of the valley activities Smith, the Buckskin cattleman, had been Amy Massingale's escort to the reclamation camp—"just a couple o' lookers." in Smith's phrase —and the unconventional altitudes had done the rest From that day forward the young woman had hospitably opened her door to Brouillard and his assistants, and any member of the corps, from Leshington the morose, who commonly came to sit in solemn silence on the porch step, to Griffith, who had lost his youthful heart to Miss Massingale on his first visit was welcome. A Turn in the Trait For BroulUard it had seemed the most natural thing in the world to fall under the spell of enchantment He knew next to nothing of the young woman's life story; he had not cared to know. It had not occurred to him to wonder how the daughter of a man who drilled and shot the holes in his own mine should have the gifts and belongings—when she chose to display them—of a woman of a much wider world. It was enough for him that she was piquantly attractive in any character aad that be found her marvel, ousry stimulating and uplifting. On the days when the devil of and irritability pnsissasd and deeed him he could climb to the eabta on high Cfcigrtago aad t a d sanity It was a-keea joy to be with her, aad up to the p r i s t tads had "You may put it in that way if you please," Bhe returned gravely. "What its your need?" He stated It concisely. "Money—a lot of It." "How singular!" she laughed. She got out of the hammock and came to lean, with ber hands behind her, against the opposite porch post "But tell me, what wo'uld you do with your pot of rainbow gold—if you should find it?" Brouillard rose and straightened himself with his arms over his head like an athlete testing his muscles for the record breaking event. "What would I do? A number of things. But first of all, I think, I'd buy the privilege of telling some worn an that 1 love her." She was silent for so long a time that he looked at hia watch and thought of going. But at the deciding Instant she held him with a low-spoken question. "Does It date back to the handicap? You needn't tell me If you don't want to." "It does. And there Is no reasou why I shouldn t tell you the simple fact. When my father died he left me a debt—a debt of honor; and It must be paid. Until it is paid—but I am sure you understand." "Quite fully," she responded quickly and now there was no trace of levity in the sweetly serious tone, "la it much?—so much that you can't—" He nodded and sat down again on the porch step. "Yes, It is big enough to go In a class by itself—in round numbers,, a hundred thousand dollars " "Horrors!" she gasped. "And you are carrying that millstone? Must you carry It?" "If you knew the circumstances you would be the first to say that 1 must carry it, and go on carrying it to the end of the chapter." "But—but you'll never be free!" "Not on a government salary." he admitted. "As a matter of fact, It takes more than half of the salary to pay the premiums on—pshaw! Let's drop It." She was looking beyond him and her voice was quick with womanly sympa thy when she said: "If you could drop It—but you can't. And It changes ev erything for you, distorts everything, colors your entire life. It's heart breaking!" This was dangerous ground for him and he knew It. In the ardor of young manhood he had taken up the vicari ous burden dutifully, and at that time his renunciation of the things that other-men strove for seemed the light est -of the many fetterings. But now love for a woman was threatening to make the renunciation too grievous to be borne. "How did you know?" he queried curiously. "It does change things. Id sell anything I've got, Bave one, for a chance at the freedom that other men have—and dcn't value." "What is the one thing you wouldn't sell?" she questioned, and Brouillard chose to discover a gently quickened interest In the clear-seeing eyes. "My love for the—for some woman I'm saving that, you know. It is the only capital I'll have when the big debt is paid." "Do you want me to be frivolous or serious?" she asked, looking down at him with the grimacing little smile that always reminded him of a caress "I have been wondering whether she is or isn't worth the effort—and the reservation you make. Because it is all in that, you know. You can do and be what you want to do and be if you only want to hard enough." He was looking down, chiefly because he dared not look up, when he answered soberly: "She Is worth it many, times over; her price is above rubies. Money, much or little, wouldn't be in i f "That is better—much better. Now we may go on to the ways and means; they are all in the man, not in the things, 'not none whatsoever,' as Tig would say. Let me show you what I mean. Three times within my recollection my father has been worth considerably more than you owe, and three times he has—well. It's gone And now he is going to make good again when the railroad comes." Brouillard got up. MI must be going back down the bin," he said. And then, without warning: "What if I should tell you that the railroad is not coming to the Ntquola. Amy?" DRINK HOT WATER BEFORE BREAKFAST Says you really feel clean, sweet and fresh inside, and are seldom ill. If you are accustomed to wake up with a coated tongue, foul breath or a dull, dizzy headache; or, If your meala sour and turn into gas and acids, you have a real surprise awaiting you. Tomorrow morning, immediately upon arising, drink a glass of hot water with a teaapoonful of limestone phosphate in it. This is Intended to first neutralize and then wash out of your stomach, liver, kidneys and thirty feet of intestines all the indigestible waBte, poisons, sour bile and toxins, thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal. Those subject to sick headaches, backache, bilious attacks, constipation or any form of stomach trouble, are urged to get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from your druggist or at the store and begin enjoying this morning inside-bath. It 1B said that men and women who try this become enthusiastic and keep it up daily. It is a splendid health measure for it is more important to keep clean and pure on the inside than on the outside, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, causing* disease, while the bowel pores do. The principle of bathing inside is not new, as millions of people practice It. Just as hot water and soap cleanse, - purify and freshen the skin, so hot water and a teaapoonful of limestone phosphate act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels. Limestone phosphate is an inexpensive white powder and almost tasteless.—Adv. Rapid Promotion. For three hours the American consul in a certain Mexican town had been sitting In the hotel dining room. At length the proprietor came to him. "Pardon, sir," he said, with a low bow. "Were you waiting for anything?" "Yes," replied the consul. "Yesterday I told Ferdinand, your head waiter, that 1 would dine here at six. Its now nine, and he hasn't appeared yet." "Ferdinand joined the army early today," the proprietor informed him. "If the senor—" "Gone, has he? The scoundrel! Why didn't be let me know be was going?'' "More respect, please, senor," protested the Mexican, with dignity.

Florence NigiumgLtie, wiiote death vc-curred \u 1911 ai Liie advaueed a^e of aiuety, was a ruvolutiuzuist In tile most splendid sense of tuut term. Sbe it was who revolutionized iiuramg to tiiat extent cliat sho may be considered as tne inotner of tJaat profession. Previous to ber enti-ance into the field the sick were tile victims cf callous ignorance and giaspmg indiffej- ence, but Florence Nightingale lna- cxiuced tne trained, skilled and gentle Ijospital nurse, district nurse aod military nurse of today. Certainly t o f e w women—and to few men—has it been given to serve tneir fellows so splendidly and so effectively. Florence Nightingale found chaos in military hospitals; she created order and all that order implies. After the battle of Alma, in the Crimean war, the military hospital at Scutari was like a dirty shambles. Wounded men died in hundreds in the midst of squalor and vermin. Crowds of poisonous flies buzzed ceaselessly above the sick; medical supplies were in-:.definite; proper food could no', be had; there were no arrangements for w;::;h:njj: or sanitation. The plight of the wounded soldiers, herded together in this hotbed of pestilence, was worse than if they had been left upon the battlefield. "Are there no devoted women amon^ you." wrote Russell, the famous war correspondent" of the Loudon Times, "able and willing to go forth and administer to the sic!: and suffering soldiers in the east In the hospitals at Scutari? Are none of the daughters of England r.t thls^ hour of need ready for such a work of mercy?" This appeal was answered almost instantly. Sidney Herbert w a s then at the head of the war of&ce, and when the authorities began to be inundated by letters from women of,all classes anxious to respond to the call Mr. Herbert's thoughts a t once turned to the Lady who was in his opinion the one woman capable of organizing and taking <"it to the Crimea a staff of nurses. The woman was Florence Nightingale. Miss Nightingale- was thirty-four at the time, and from her childhood she had devoted hei-self to the study of hospital nursinii and hospitul immanent.

Inhabitants chiefly of forest regions, they are nn< known on the open plains. Ordinarily they live in the woods, but are partial also to old pastures or lands not frequently cultivated. From woods, hedges and fence rows they spread into gardens, lawns and cultivated flefds through their own underground tunnels or those of the garden mole. The tunnels made £y pine mice can be distinguished from Those made by moles only by their smaller diameter and the frequent holes that open to the surface.

The same day Florence Nightingale written to the war ollice offerln services iu tbe hospital at Scutari offer showed splendid courage. Within a week of making her resolve, Miss Nightingale had her first contingent? of nurses in marching order. She had selected thirty-eight nurses to accompany her, and they arrived at Scutari on the day before the battle of Inkennan. And without a moment's loss of time that lady in chief and her staff set to work to cleanse the Augean stable which they found waiting for them at the great barrack hospital. Tu a short time the place was entirely renovated. Everything was scrubbed, old clothes were burned, a kitchen and laundry were established, and the place became a comfortable, well organised hospital. Florence Ntehflngnle superintended everything. She worked ns nurd at the routine nnd organizing JJS at the nursing itself. At nil hours of the d;iy nnd night she would walk silently, lamp in hand, through the wards, giving ft word of comfort here or Instruction tuene. She saved the lives literally of hundreds. Wounded men. so horribly mangled that doctors gave them no hope, and other nurses couki not bring themselves to touch them, were savod from death by tlie tireless en re of this one wonderful woman. The nier worshiped the very shadow of this "lady wHta the lamp." The supreme womanliness of the work of M 1 M Nightingale made her tbft Idol of the SagUah people. Three monarch* paid their tribute to her. Remembered by royalty she was not forgotten by the people. On ber return, •battered in health, from Scutari, S280LOOO was presented to ber by a grateful nation.

The mole is seeking earthworms or white grubs that feed upon the tubet*, but mice that follow in the runs eat the potatoes them selves. Depredations by i>tne mice can be found only after digging about the tree and exposing the trunk below the surface. The roots of small trees are often entirely eaten off by pine mice, and pine trees as well as decldnons forest trees, when young, are frequently killed by these animals. For destroying pine mice sweet potatoes nr; a bait have been found effective. They keep well in contact with soil except when there is danger of freezing, nnd are readily eaten by the mice. The baits should be prepared as follows: Cut sweet potatoes into pieces about as large as good sized grapes, r i m e them in a metal pan or tub and wet them with water. Drain off the water and with a tin pepper box slowly sift over them powdered strychnine (alkaloid preferred), stirring constantly so that the poison is evenly distributed. An ounce of strychnine should poison a bushel of the cut bait The bait, whether of grain or pieces of ]>otato, may be dropped Into the pine mouse tunnels through the natural openings or through holes made with a piece of broom handle or other stick. Bird life will not be endangered by these balm. Nightingale was the mother of all present day nurses. — Cleveland Plain Dealer.

MARINE COMMANDERS HAVE RECEIVED ORDERS. WON OUT ON HIS SUBMARINE POLICY GOES INTO EFFECT TUESDAY Armed Ships Are Not Peaceful Traders, and Are Subject to Destruction Without Warning. ton t* % » & Washington—Germany has instructed Count van Bernstorff to inform the United States government that the assurances regarding the future conduct of submarine warfare given in the Lusitania and Arabic cases still are binding, but that they apply only to merchantmen of peaceful character. The German government is understood to contend that armed merchantmen, without regard to the nature of their armament have shown themselves not to be peaceful, and therefore are subject to destruction without warning. The instruction direct the German ambassador particularly to tell Secretary Lansing that British merchantmen armed ostensibly only for defense have not assumed the character of peaceful traders, but that on the contrary they carry gums for the especial purpose of attacking German submarines. To support this claim the Berlin foreign office has sent the ambassador for presentation to the state department, a list of at least 20 incidents where it is claimed British merchant ships have attacked submarines. Confidential advices received from Berlin state that German and Austrian submarine commanders have already been given their new orders and that from midnight Tuesday, they will be authorized to sink without J warning all armed merchant ships of the enemies of Germany.

EXPORT TRADE DROPS OFF Imports Said to Be Increasing Over Last Year's Showing. Washington—The country's export trade declined during January, through the month's total was far above that for the same month of last year. Figures made public by the commerce department show the value of exports was $335,535,303, compared with $352,800,000 for December. The increase over January, 1915, was nearly $68,000,000. Imports still are increasing, the total for January being $184,192,299, a gain of more than $12,000,000 over December. Nearly 74 per cent of the imports were free of duty, indicating increased imports of raw materials and decreased imports of manufactured European goods. For the seven months ended with January the exports totaled $2,181,- 312,312,322, or 64 per cent higher than for the same period a year ago, and 40 per cent higher tbsn the former best record made in 1912 13. Imports for the seven months totaled $1,096,979,173, for about $500,000 more than the former high record total of $1,096,484,767 recorded in the seven months of 1912-13 .and $166,500,000 more than for the corresponding per iod of 191415. The seven months just ended showed an export balance of $1,084,333,149. International gold movements during January were comparatively small, imports amounting to $15,008,232 and exports to $10,213,517. ADMIRAL ALFRED VON T I R P I T 2 .

Admiral von Tirpitz who has won out in his determination to follow the new plan of submarine warfare against merchant ships. THE M. A. C. ANNUAL HOP Elaborate Costumes, Decorations and Silver Favors. ITEMS OF STATE INTEREST Lansing—Characterized by elaborate and colorful decorations, gorgeous gowns and beautiful women, the annual "J" hop given by the junior ctaas of the Michigan Agricultural college, was held in Masonic temple here Friday night. This was in distinct contrast to the simplicity of the cotton party a year ago. Favors for the men were black ailk Waldemar chains, bearing the M. A. C. monogram iu silver, and the ladles were given silver vanity cases engraved with their initials. A 12-piece orchestra from Detroit furnished the music. Miss Florence Walsh, of Buffalo, N. Y., and C. C. Hood, president of the Junior class, led the grand march. Patrons of the evening included Gov. ernor and Mrs. W. N. Ferris and acting President and Mrs. F. S. Kediie, of M. A. C. The decorations were done in pink and green, banks of flowers and greenery being used to work out the color scheme. At intervals on the dance floor were half columns supporting small statues, which held In each hand illuminated rose globes and represented "The Spirit of the Dance." From the ceiling were suspended inverted floral domes, festooned with pink Japanese roping, in the dining-room red-shaded candles and red tulips formed the foundation of the decorations. Dover—The-steamship Maloja, a 12,- 431-ton vessel belonging to the Peninsular & Oriental line, struck a mine and sank within half an hour two miles off Dover. More than 40 persons were drowned or killed as a result of the accident. The bodiets landed from the Maloja include 18 men, 11 women and four children, in addition to 11 Lascars. Among the dead is Mrs. Mc- Leod, wife of General McLeod. The left Tilbury for Bombay, with mail, 119 passengers of all classes aboard and a crew numbering about 200. most of them Lascars. Other passengers were to join the ship at Marseilles. The steamer had juat passed Admiralty j>ier at Dover and was-, opposite Shakespeare cliff, when an explosion shook her from end to end. She listed immediately to port. High seas were running and the captain, realizing that great damage had been done to the after part of his vessel, tried to run her aground, but the engine room was swamped and the ship became unmanagaeable. The plight of the vessel was observed and dozens of craft went at full speed to her rescue. One of them, the British tanker Empress, of Fort William, of 2,181 tons, struck another mine and sank nearby. Aboard the Maloja everything possible was done to get the passengers and crew off. All the boats had already been swung out before she struck, as a precaution against accident, and all those aboard had sufficient time to put on lifeboats, instruction in the use of which had been given the pervious evening. lump from Bed in Morning and Drink Hot Water Telia why everyone should drink hot water each morning before breakfast. THE CRUISE OF OSCAR II AMBASSADOR TO MEXICO Said to Have Coat Four Hundred Thousand Dollars. Detroit—The peace expedition sent to Europe on board the Oscar II. cost Henry Ford $400,000, according to Gaston Plaintiff, financial manager for the peace ship cruise. Tips to the amount of $26,000 were given by the members of the expedition, and Henry Ford achieved the distinction of paying the greatest hotel bill ever paid by an individual when he gave $160,- 000 to the hotel keepers of Chris tiania, Stockholm, Copenhagen and The Hague for the accommodation of his guests. Wireless messages cost $10,- 000 alone, and it cost Mr. Ford $9,500 for railroad fares. He spent $40,000 to bring the voyagers back home. Why is man and woman, half the time, feeling nervous, despondent, worried; some daya headachy, dull and unstrung; some daya really incapacitated by illness. If we all would practice inside-bathing, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of thousands of half-sick, anaemic-looking souls with pasty, muddy complexions we should see crowds of happy, healthy, rosycheeked people everywhere. The reason is that th® human system does not rid Itself each day of all the waste which it accumulates under our present mode Of living. For every ounce of food and. drink taken into the system nearly an ounce of waste material must be carried out, else it ferments and forms ptomaine-like poisons which are absorbed into the blood. Just as necessary as it is to clean the ashes from the furnace each day, before the fire will burn bright and hot, so we must each morning clear the inside organs of the previous day's accumulation of indigestible waste and body toxins. Men and women, whether sick or well, are advised to drink each morning, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, as a harmless means of washing out of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the indigestible material, waste, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal befote putting more food into the stomach. Millions of -people who had their turn at constipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach, nervous days and sleepless nights have become real cranks about the morning inside-bath. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will not cost much from your druggist or at the store, but is sufficient to demonstrate to anyone, its cleansing, sweetening and freshening effect upon the system.—Ady.

CHAPTER IV—Continued. During the weeks which followed, the same trail, and a little later that from the Navajo reservation on the south, were strung with antlike processions of laborers pouring Into the shut-in valley at the foot of Mount Chlgrlngo. Almost as if by magic a populous camp of tents, shelter shacks and Indian tepees sprang up In the level bed-bottom of the future lake; campflres gave place to mess kitchens; the commissary became a busy department store stocked with everything that thrifty or thriftless labor might wish to purchase; and daily the great foundation scorings in the buttressing shoulders of Jack's mountain and Chlgrlngo grew deeper and wider. It was after the huge task of foundation digging was well under way and the work of constructing the small power dam in the upper canyon bad been begun that the young chief of construction, busy with a thousand details, had his first forcible reminder of the continued existence of Mr. J Wesley Cortwright It came in the form of a communication from Washington, forwarded by special post-rider service from Quesado, and it called a halt upon the upriver power project. In accordance with its settled policy, the reclamation service would refrain, in the Niquola as elsewhere, from entering into com petition with private citizens; would do nothing to discourage the Invest meat of private capital A company had been formed to take over the power production and to establish a plant for the manufacture of cement, and Brouillard was instructed to gov ern himself accordingly. For his in formation, the department letter writer went on to say. it was to be understood that the company was duly organized under the provisions of an act of congress; that it had bound itself to furnish power and materia) at prices satisfactory to the service; and that the relations between it and the government field-staff on the ground were to be entirely friendly "It's a graft—a pull-down with a profit in It for some bunch of money leeches a little higher up!" was the young chief's angry comment when he had given Orlslow the letter to read. "Without knowing any more of the details than that letter gives. I'd be willing to bet a month's pay that this Is the fine Italian hand Of Mr. J. Wesley Cortwright!" Grislow's eyebrows went dp In doubtful interrogation. "Ought I to know the gentleman?" he queried mildly. "1 don't seem to recall the name." "No. you don't know him. It was his motor party that was camping at the Buckskin ford the night we broke in here—the night when we saw the searchlight." "And you met him? 1 thought you told me you merely went down and took a look—didn't butt in?" "1 didn't—that night But the next morning they wanted to see the val ley. and I showed them the way in. Cortwright is the multimillionaire pork packer of Chicago, and he went up Into the air like a lunatic over the moneymaktng chances there were to be In this Job. I didn't nay much attention to his chortlings at the time. It didn't seem remotely credible that anybody with real money to invest would plant it la the bottom of the Nlquoia reservoir."

"0 suffering Jehu!" gritted Brouillard ragefully. "Are you never going to forget that senseless bit of twaddle?" "You're not giving me a chance to forget it," said the mapmaker soberly. "You told me that night that the seven-year characteristic was change; and you're a changed man, Victor, If ever there was one. Moreover, it began that very night—or the next morning." Brouillard laughed. "All of which is bad enough, you'd say, Murray; but it Isn't the worst of it I've Just run up against another thing that is threatening to raise merry hell in this valley." "I know," said the hydrographer slowly. "You've been having a seance with Steve Massingale. Leshlngton told me about it/' "What did he tell you?" Brouillard demanded half angrily. "Oh, nothing much; nothing to make you hot at him. He said he gathered the notion that the young sorehead was trying to bully you." "He was," was the brittle admission. "See here, Grlzzy." The thing to be seen was a small buckskin bag which, when opened, gave up a paper packet folded like a medicine powder. The paper contained a spoonful of dust and pellets of metal of a dull yellow luster. The hydrographer drew a long breath and fingered the nuggets. "Gold—placer gold!" be exclaimed, and Brouillard nodded and went on to tell how he had come by the bag and its contents. "Massingale had an ax to grind, of course. You may remember that Harding talked loosely about the Massingale opposition to the building of the dam. There was nothing in it. The opposition was purely personal, and it was directed against Harding himself, with Amy Massingale for the exciting cause." "That girl?—the elemental brute!" Grislow broke in warmly. He knew the miner's daughter fairly well by this time, and, in common with every man on the staff, not excepting the staff's chief, would have fought for her in any cause. Brouillard nodded. "I don't knot* what Harding did. but Smith, the Triangle- Circle foreman, tells me that Steve was on the warpath; he told Harding when he left last summer, that if he ever came back to Nlquoia, he'd come to stay—and stay dead." "1 never did like Harding any too well" was the hydrographer's definitive comment and Brouillard went back to the matter of the morning's seance and its golden outcome. T h a t is only s little side issue. Steve Massingale came to me this morning with a proposal that was about as cold-blooded as a slap In the face. Naturally, for good business reasons of their own, the Massingales want to see the railroad built over War Arrow pass into the Nlquoia, (n some way Steve has found out that 1 stand pretty well with President Ford and the Pacific Southwestern people. His first break was to offer to Incorporate the 'Little Susan' and to give me a block of the stock if I'd pull Ford's leg on the extension proposition." "Well?" queried Grislow. "Exactly You can imagine what 1 -told him. Then he began to bully and pcl!*d the club on me." Again Grislow's smile was Jocose. "Well, when I turned him down, young Massingale began to bluster and to say that I'd have to boost the railroad deal whether I wanted to or n o t 1 told hrm ho couldn't prove H. and he said he would show me, tf I'd take halt an hoar's walk np the valley, with him.

"Comparatively rich, you say? —and you washed this spoonful out of a single pan?" "Keep your head," said Brouillard coolly. "Massingale explained that 1 had happened to make a ten-strike; that the bar wasn't any such bonanza as that first result would Indicate. I proved that too, by washing some more of It without getting any more than a tew 'colors.' But the fact remains: it's placer ground." It was at this point that the larger aspect of the fact launched iueif upon the hydrographer. "A gold strike!" he gasped. "And we—we're planning to drown it urfder two hundred feet ¾f a lake!" Brouillard'8 laugh was harsh. "Don't let the fever get hold of you, Grislow. Don't forget that we are here to carry out the plans of the reclamation service—which are more farreaching and of a good bit greater consequence than a dozen plater mines. Massingale drove the peg down good and hard. If I would jump in and pull every possible string to hurry the railroad over the range, and keep on pulling them, the secret of the placer bar would remain, a secret Otherwise he, Stephen Massingale, would give It away, publish it. advertise It to the world. You know what that would mean for us, Murray." "My Lord! I should say so! We'd have Boomtown-on-the-pike right now. with all the variational Every white man In the camp would chuck his Job in the hollow half of a minute and go to gravel washing!" "That's it precisely," Brouillard acquiesced gloomily. "Massingale is a young tough, but he is shrewd enough, when he is sober. He had me dead to rights, and he knew I t 'You don't want any gold camp starting up here in the bottom of your reservoir,' he said; and 1 had to admit i t " Grislow had found a magnifying glass In the drawer of the mapping table, and he was holding it in focus over the small collection of grain gold and nuggets. In the midst of the eager examination he looked up suddenly to say: "Hold on a minute. Why is Steve proposing to give this thing away? Why Isn't he working the bar himself?" "He explained that phase of it, after a fashion—said that placer mining was always more or less of a gamble, and that they had a sure thing of it in the 'Little Susan.' Of course, if the thing had to be given away he and his father would avail themselves of their rights as discoverers and take their chance with the crowd for the sake of the ready money they might get out of It Otherwise they'd be content to let It alone and stick to their legitimate business, which is quartz mining." "And to do that successfully they've got to have the railroad. How did you settle it finally?" "He told me to take a week or two and think about it." Grislow was biting the end of his penholder thoughtfully. "What are you going to do about 1t Victor?" he asked at length. "We can't stand for any more chaos than the gods have already doped out for us. can we?" Brouillard took another long minute at the office window before he said: "**What would you do if you were In my place, Murray?" But at this the mapmaker put up his hands as If to ward off a blow. "No, you don't!" he laughed. "1 refuse to be that kind of a fool But Til venture a Bmall prophecy: The golden secret will leak out And after that the deluge." A Fire of Little Sticks Two days after the arrival of the letter from Washington announcing the approaching invasion of private capital, Broulllard. returning from a horseback trip to the Buckskin, where Anson and Griffith were setting grade stakes for the canal diggers, found a visitor awaiting him in the camp headquarters office. One glance at the thick-bodied, heavy-faced man chewing an extinct cigar while he made himself comfortable in the only approach to a loung tng chair that the office afforded was sufficient to awaken an alert antagonism. The big man Introduced him self without taking the trouble to get out of his chair. "My name is Hosford. and I represent the Nlquoia Improvement company as its manager and resident engineer," said the lounger, shifting the dead cigar from one corner of his hard-bitted mouth to the other. "You're Billiard, the government man. I take i t r "Broulllard, If you please," was tho crisp correction. And then with a en*acement of tho final saving of bospijattty la tone or maooar: What can we do tor you, fcjr. Hoe- «or*r , "A good many things, first and last, t o two og^a*t*;days ahead of say out*. a a f p l p H p put me op eose* woere uuui l get a camp of my own You ve got some sort of an engineers' mess. I take it?" "We have," said Broulllard brl&Ay. 'You'll make yourself at home with as, of course," he added, and he tried to say it without making it sound too much like a challenge. "All right; t»o much for that part of it." said the Belf-invited gueat "Now for the business end of the deal—why don't you sit down?" Brouillard planted himself behind his desk and began to fill his blackened office pipe, coldly refusing Hosford's tender of a cigar. "You were speaking of the business matter." he suggested bluntly. "Yes. I'd like to go over your plans for the power dam In the upper canyon. If they look good to me I'll adopt them." "1 am very far from wishing to quarrel with anybody," said Brouillard. but his tone belied the words. "At the same time, if you think we are going to do your engineering work, or any part of it. for you. you are pretty severely mistaken. Our own Job is fully big enough to keep us busy." "You're off," said the big man coolly. "Somebody haa bungled in giving you the dope. You want to keep your job, don't you?" "That is neither here nor there. What we are discussing at present is the department's attitude toward your enterprise. 1 shall be exceeding my Instructions if 1 make that attitude friendly to the detriment of my own work." The new resident manager sat back in his chair and chewed his cigar reflectively, staring up at the log beaming of the office ceiling. "You're just like all the other government men I've ever had to do business with, Brouillard; pig-headed, obstinate, blind as bats to their own interests. 1 didn't especially want to begin by knocking you into line, but I guess it'll have to be done. I guess the best way to get you is to send a little wire to Washington. How does that strike you?" "I haven't the slightest Interest in what you may do or fail to do." said Brouillard. "But you have made the plans for this power plant, haven't you?" "Yes; and they are the property of the department. If you want them I'll turn them over to you upon a proper order from headquarters." "That's a little more like It. Where did you say I'd find your wire office?" Broulllard gave the information, and as Hosford went out Grislow came in and took his place at the mapping table. "Glad you got back In time to save my life," he remarked pointedly, with a shy glance at -his chief. "He's been plowing furrows up and down my little potato patch all day." "Humph! Digging for Information. 1 suppose?" grunted Brouillard. "Just that; and he's been getting It, too. Not out of me, particularly, but out of everybody. Also, he was willing to impart a little. We're in tor the time of our lives, Victor." "I know It," was the crabbed rejoin der. "You don't know the tenth part oi i t " asserted the hydrographer slowly. "It's a modest name, 'The Niquola Improvement company,' but It is going to be like charity—covering a multitude of sins. Do you know what that plank-faced organizer has got up his sleeve? He is going to build as a neat up-to-date little city right here in the middle of our midst If I hadn't made him believe that 1 was only a draftsman, he would have had me out with a transit running the lines fox the streets." "A city?—in this reservoir bottom? I guess n o t He was only stringing you to kill time, Grizzy." "Don't you fool yourself!" ex claimed the mapmaker. "He's got the plans in his grip. We're going to be on a little reservation set apart for as by the grace of God and the kind ness of those promoters. The remainder of the valley is laid off into cute little squares and streets, with every thing named and numbered, ready to be listed in the brokers' offices. You may not be aware of i t but this palatial office building of ours fronts on Chlgrlngo avenue." "Stuff!" said Broulllard. "What has all this bubble blowing got to do with the building of a temporary dam and the setting up of a couple of cement kilns?" Grislow laid his pen aside and whirled around on his working stool "Don't you make any e*jy-go1ng mistake, Victor." he said earnestly. "The cement and power proposition is only a side issue. These new people are going to take over the sawmills. open up quarries, build a stub railroad to the Hophra mines, grade a practicable stage road over the range to Queaado. aad put on a fast-mule freight line to servo until the railroad builds In.

To get botb pleasure and profit from a garden one does not need a large variety of flowers and vegetables. I do the planting and much of the work on a plot of about one acre. The products include asters, dahlias, strawberries, tomatoes, celery, lettuce, string beans, etc. March is none too soon to commence shaping one's plans for the garden. A good catalogue from some reliable seedman is necessary. The winter months are the time to study and plan out your scheme of garden. My experience has been that it is a mistake to try too many varieties of vegetables. Of peas, tomatoes and cabbage, select two varieties, one early, the other late. Of all the other vegetables 1 find one variety suffices. Order your seeds early, for by the middle of March one can begin operations by sowing tomato, cabbage and celery seeds in boxes filled with earth. Cigar boxes make a good receptacle for starting plants. They are deep enough and a good size to stand on the window sill. Two hundred plants can be started in one box. The early cabbage and tomato should be planted first. If you are going to try celery it should be among the first started. Do not cover the seed too deep. Follow the direction on the package as to depth. Do not get discouraged about results, as celery seed germinates very slowly. Keep the top of the earth always moist, and do not look for plants until the third week. When they do show, give plenty of light so that they will not be spindling. This also applies to cabbage and tomatoes. All of them will grow long, thread-like stems, which will be too weak to support themselves, unless given plenty of sunlight. The celery plants can remairi in the cigar box much longer than any of the other plants that I have suggested for house planting. They grow slowly. The tomatoes and cabbage will soon need larger quarters. As soon as the fourth leaf is under way, they should be planted into flats. Mine are about two feet square and three inches deep. I nailed them up myself, and any other woman with a few boards, a saw and a hammer, can do as much. Once made, they will be good for several seasons. Do not fill with earth to the top. By the time the plants are transplanted in the flats there will be many days when they can be placed outside for a few hours. This should be done whenever possible. Bulbs plunged in ashes should be ready to bring to the windoT by this time. Sow mignonettes In pots for early spring flowering. Mend the walks about the house and garden, and If the fences need it, repair them. Later the spring rush o/ work will prevent this.

White, of the pepartment of the Interior* Ottawa, Canada.) I strolled into a bank in one of the cities of the west a short time ago and the bank manager said "after the war, the Canadians should be prepared for a great influx of people. The crops that the western Canadian farms have produced in 1915, and the wealth that the farmers have had thrust upon them by the high price of grain, will make farm lands valuable and farming remunerative. After the wax is over there will be tbouands go to Canada to engage in agriculture and many other Industrie* that will certainly prove profitable. Conditions will be wonderfully good. The advertising that Canada has had during the last year or two by ita magnificent contribution of over 250,000 men to flfht for the Empire, the wonderful sums it has given to the Red Cross and Patriotic funds, the excellent showing it made in subscribing over double) when only 50 millions of dollars was asked as a war loan, the bravery, courage and hardihood of the soldiers who have fought the battles in Flanders, it is just wonderful," and my enthusiastic banker grew eloquent. One might have thought he was a subsidized booster for Canada. "But," he said, "they won't go until after the wrar." "Well, now, Mr. , why wait until after the war? If all you say be true, and you have said nothing yet of the wonderful bank clearings of Canada today, nothing of the fact that the immense grain crop of Western Canada this year has given to every man, woman and child in that country, over three hundred dollars per head, why wait until after the war? After the war, under such conditions as you have pictured (and which are real) land values will go up, prices will increase. Advantage should be taken of the low prices at which these agricultural lands can be had today. They have not increased any as yet, and excellent farm lands can be had close to railways In- old settlements, In excellent communities for from fifteen to thirty dollars per acre. The climate Is good and will be no better after the war." "What about conscription, though? Is there not a danger from conscription, and should I advise any to go there now, would they not have to face it? Then, too, there is the report that there is a heavy war tax on lands." I was surprised to learn that these old yarns, stories that I thought had been exploded long ago, wore still doing duty In many parts of the United States, and that a gentleman of the wide learning of my friend, was inclined to believe them. "Conscription!" I said. "With Canada contributing 250,00.0 men voluntarily enlisted, why conscription? There is no conscription In Canada, and neither will there be. It Is not needed. In any case no legislation could be passed by the Dominion Parliament which would impose military service upon people who are not citizens of Canada, either by birth or naturalization. Settlers from the United States could not become naturalized British subjects until they had resided In Canada continuously for three years." I quoted from official documents. "Tn the first few months of the war I clearly stated that there would not be conscription In Canada I report that statement today." "And then as to taxes." I continued, quoting again from official authority. "All taxes levied by the Federal Government take the Indirect form of customs excise and inland revenue du> ties. It iri untrue that banners are paying direct war-tax levies and no intending settler need hesitate to come to Canada on this account. "Official denials should convince yon that all apprehensions which have been making some would-be-settlers from the United States hesitate to make a change while the war lasts are without foundation- With those misunderstandtngs cleared up, the present war conditions, even become an added inducement to settlement in amy part of the provinces of western Canada, inasmuch a t war prices and keen demands for an manner of farm prodocta afford the farmer a special opportunity to make money." I was glad of the chance and plowed to have b i n state that his views had altogether changed. I could have oontinaed, and told him of the tm times that had been made in the sense* of i f l i , eat of Wetftim Adds to the Attractiveness of the Haefte Place U s * Thrifty Via**, oats per acre from their farm at Wain* wrlght and from 60 acres of wheat field they threshed over 80 bushels per acre. These yields, while phenomenal, were repeated In many portions of western Canada. It was Interesting to> inform him that the average yiel^ spring wheat in Sackatchewan £5.10 bushels per acre; Manitoba, bushels; in Alberta, 36.16 bus and over the three provinces there was a total average of over 30 bushels per acre. "The immense crop that has-just been harvested has put millions of dollars in the hands of the farmers, and the work of distribution through the regular channels of trade has already begun. Millions of bushels of grain are still in the hands of the farmers, which means that there is a vast store of realizable wealth that will be steadily going into circulation, benefitting the thousands who are depedent indirectly on the basic industry of the province for their livelihood. "The mock prosperity that rested on the insecure foundation of inflated real estate values has passed away, and in its place the corner stone of the country's sound financial future is being built. "The trust and mortgage companies, the large implement concerns and the wholesale merchants all tell the same story today of marked improvement in their business. The farmers and others are meeting their just dues and paying off debts that in many cases have been long overdue. Collections are better today than they have been since the most prosperous days of our history, and obligations are being met freely and promptly. "Now," 1 said, "why should they wait until the war is over?" And he agreed with me.—Advertisement. THIN PERSONS LIVE LONGEST As Age Advances Investigations Show Danger From Overweight Is increased. Recent investigations show that the longest life and best health are not to be found among those of average build at any particular age On the contrary, it Is discovered that in those at the younger age who are slightly overweight and at the older ages among those who are distinctly underweight the longest life and best health will be found. Overweight is, above thirty-odd years, a definite disadvantage to health. It means staleness, lack of elasticity, clogged up tissues, and lack of the power of adaptability to invading germs, says London Ideas. Men from twenty to twenty-four can be accepted as healthy and for a long life fifty to sixty pounds above normal. Less excess weight is permissible between t* snty-flve and fifty and increasingly less as you go up. There are one-third more deaths among men between sixty-five and eighty who are fifty pounds to sixty pounds fatter than they should be for a given height At the ages of thirty-four to fortyfive from thirty-five pounds to fortyfive pounds heavier weight than a man should b*> double his risk of death. For anyone above thirty-five who Is thirty pounds too obese life Insurance companies hereafter will consider poor risks or raise their insurance rates. In Place of Gossip. "Conversation classes" are the fad of the moment. At a conversation class, of course, you learn to converse; and the women who attend are deslr* ous of reviving real conversation at the expense of mere talking. The members of the class meet in one another's drawing rooms, sometimes without a teacher or "director of conversation," and one of the first things improved upon the audience Is that intelligent listening is as mnch of an art as brilliant talking. When there* is no teacher, little groups of women meet and agree upon certain topics of conversation, about which each member informs herself. One woman tn the class is appointed to rule out interruptions and irrelevant rex and keep each talker to a time This is interesting to all the mei of the class, and certainly more recommended than the gossip to women are? given.

Washington.—If preparedness legislation goes through, as at present It is planned, it is probable the regular army will be increased by the addition of between 40,000 and 50,000 men. It seems likely that congress will provide that aa large a part of the Increase as possible shall be put into the field artillery, for it is established that field guns, that is light artillery, are the all-in-all of the present war, a fact that army men say was proved before the conflict was a month old. Winfleld Scott Hancock once said that the tariff was a'local issue, and for saying it was laughed at and voted into retirement. The developments of the years, many men hold, have vindicated Hancock's words. John M. Schofleld, major general of the United States army, foresaw the coming of the sharp need of greatly increased numbers of field guns if wars were to be won. He was abused and charged with a desire to help the artillery branch of the service at the expense of sister branches. There are few regular army officers today who are unwilling to give General Schofleld credit for hard sense and keen foresight. Field guns Vre doing the work in Europe today, and field guns, at the present time, mean something more than three-inch rifles and the smaller weapons by courtesy called cannon. Siege guns have become field guns. Heavy artillery also can be moved, laboriously it is true, but nevertheless successfully, from one point to another. Artillery seems to be the prime weapon of modern warfare. Artillery First Requisite. Army officers in Washington are alive to the situation. They want a well-balanced army, of course, and they will resent any attempt to cut down other branches to increase the artillery, but rather than weaken the force of artillery they probably will be willing that sacrifices In other branches shall be made. What they want, however, is enough field guns, and enough ammunition to serve them, to make certain the efficiency of the field artillery forces. When your correspondent was at the front in France, near the Argonne forest, S t Mihiel and Verdun, and later in the trenches in Lorraine, he got some realising sense of what artillery means in this war, and, moreover, he learned .definitely the necessity of unlimited ammunition for the guns in service. The cannonading from both the siege guns and the seventy-fives of the French and the seventy-sevens of the Germans was virtually incessant There was a lull at night, but all through the day the cannon roared along the Jotiy or fifty miles of front, for on a still day it Is possible to hear' the gunfire for many miles on either side of the listener. Every foreign officer who spoke on the subject at all, dwelt upon the necessity of field pieces, "shells and still more shells." Are Coast Cities Safe? Sharp knowledge may be had of the diametrically opposed views in Washington on the subject of preparedness by comparing some of the things that the anti-preparedness folks say with things said by the champions of preparation. There is an anti-preparedness committee here which is putting out many pleas against the enactment of any preparedness legislation this winter and, by intimation at least against any preparedness legislative plans for any winter to come. Th^se anti-preparedness advocates, virtually every one of whom is a pacifist hold that we do not need any more ships and that the army is big enough as it Is and that nothing should be done to create a volunteer force, nor to increase the strength of the militia. It is through -the antl-preparednees committee that one hears that our coast cities do not need any further means of defease than they now have, and that no enemy ever will try to place oar big towns under tribute, nor to molest the good American people tn any way. On the other hand, the advocates ef a plea to pet the United a position to defend- itself amy the condition Is ssjch thai any foe that can lay New Tort in two M r s , or In ruins te the ttase Os* It wesjsd tats a e¥tan * * • attested by facts which congress baa had in its possession for years and which every foreign government wild a military information corps has had In its possession tor a long time. Why is it said that a Toe cau smash our cities so easily? Because, army men say, there is only two hours' supply of ammunition for our tjeacoast defense gunB There is one curious feature which stands out from all the facts which have been presented to congress concerning our need or lack, of need of j preparation for defense froti possible j foes. It seems to be admitted that we have big guns enough for the protection of harhors and cities, but that we haven't the ammunition to make the guns useful In other words, congress has been authorizing plenty of money for guns, but has declined to authorize the money for the purchase of the ammunition which would make the guns serviceable. Wilson's Trip to the Capes. President Wilson has been looking oyer one of this country's greatest fortifications, the guard over the sea entrances to three great cities, one of which is the capital of the United States. When the president announced his intention of going to Fortress Monroe to have a-few days time in which to think on whom to appoint to succeed Lindley M. Garrison, his former secretary of war, he had one other object in view, namely, the inspection of the defenses at Fortress Monroe and of the site of the proposed additional defenses at Cape Henry. He wanted to learn at first hand something about the big guns and the water approaches which they command. There is one element in the preparedness plan upon which army officers and legislators fixed their minds prior to the great war in Europe and, of course therefore, prior to the time cf the arousing of interest in this country in the subject of quick preparation for defense. About two years ago plans were laid to build a big fort at Cape Henry to help Fortress Monroe guard the entrance to Chesapeake bay and to the James river. Up the Chesapeake at its farthermost point lies Baltimore. Running into the Chesapeake about midway between th-3 entrance and its high point, is the Potomac river, and up the Potomac lies the city of Washington. Just back of the main entrance to the waters of Hampton Roads lies the city of Norfolk, and up the James river, which empties Into the ocean nsar Norfolk, lies the city of Richmond. All of these cities must be guarded by the forts whose guns command the passageway between Cape Charles and Cape Henry. % Really Two Forts There. In reality there are two forts at Old Point Comfort. There is the old Fortress Monroe built a hundred or more years ago and which resembles to some extent the formications of the medieval period. There is the mason ry fort with Its embrasures through which poked the muzzles of now antiquated tmooth bore guts, and there Is the moat fed by the waters of the bay and whi^h was intended to embarrass If not to stop a land attack. Today as a companion to the old fort is a new fortress, unlike it in all particulars. It is modern and is equipped with the most modern highpower rifles. Electrical and somewhat Intricate machinery has taken the place of the old sponge and rammer staff which was used to charge the muzsle-loading smooth bores of the old time. Range finders and new inventions for sighting have superseded the old system of aiming the smooth bores which, as a matter of fact, were pointed to a considerable extent as an ordinary rifle is pointed. The guns of Fortress Monroe can hurl projectiles across the entrance to Chesapeake bay aa far as the shore waters of Cape Charles. Enemy vessels tn order to get into Chesapeake bay proper and to head toward Baltimore *and Washington must pass within range of the Fortress Monroe guns. However, if a fog is on, or if the enemy's ships are willing to take chances, they could pass up into the Chesapeake, bagging the Cape Charles shore and be in comparatively little danger of disaster from Monroe's guns. To Fortify Cape Henry. In order to make such a passage for the enemy's ships more hazardous batteries have been placed on what are called the Rip-raps which He in the waters of Hampton Roads to the right of Fortress Monroe as one looks seaward This makes two fortifications In place and ready to defend the hay and river approaches, but these two have not been considered sufficient to meet an the possibilities tn the case. Therefore ft was that, congress pro-' vided the means some Base ago for tin purchase of land for a fort on Cape Henry, -the more southern of the two canes between which the channel tote the Chesapeake tad Hampton itoads rsns from the ocean. This fort It to completed will have the BOdem guns and It seems Ukaiy that the sjpvsranient win pace one or two ef the It-inch monsters on thto ALCOHOL- 3 PER CENT.

Geese are just as profitable as ducks. The cost of raising geese is about the same as that o t raising green ducks, the expense varying with local conditions, prices of feed and labor, says Country Gentleman, -it costs approxi mately from G to 10 cents a pound to grow geese under more or less artificial conditious. When they can be grown on pasture the cost is considerably less. Geese require more room than ducks, and they, thrive best on laud where they can have access to ponds and streams. On most farms low,-.marshy land that cannot well be used for anything else can very profitably Us used as a .pasture for fc<*ese. Geeec live largely on grass, though insects and bugs are essential. When geese are raised in limited numbers special build higs are not essential. All that is noces sary is protection from storms.

In a bulletin of the United States department of agriculture writen to suggest to the corn belt farmer of the middle West some ways of ''cashing in" the scientific advice offered him in hundreds of bulletins already published, Carl Vrooman, assistant secretary of the department, devotes a section to the discussion of the best rotations. "Not until you get clover or some other legume into your scheme of farming/' he says, "do you have a rotation that pays dividends in bigger crops. Many fanners think they are keeping up to date and farming scientifically if they have five or ten acres in alfalfa and get a stand of clover on a twenty or thirty-acre field once in two or three years. This is a serious mistake. The productivity of a farm is not being kept up on a permanent basis unless annually at least onefourth of that farm Is made to grow legumes, which are either plowed under as stable manure or green manure." The corn-oats system becomes effective when a year of clover is added and the rotation runs corn, oats, clover. In sections where oats do not produce good yields wheat may be substituted. The Importance of including clover In the rotation, however, has been definitely established by a long aeries of experiments carried on in Illinois. As far back as 1879 two rotations were started, one being corn and oats and the other corn, oats and clover. These rotations were continued without change. During the years from 1901 to 1911 the average yield of corn in the Excellent Field of Corn. former was only 28.1 bushels per acre, while in the latter it was 57.2. What is known as "standard Illinois rotation" Is the following: Corn, oats with clover seeding, clover, wheat In TREATMENT OF POTATO SEED Solution of Commercial Formalin and Water Will Destroy Disease Spores of Tubers. Potato diseases such as fusarium, stem rot and scab, live over winter on the aeed and In the soil. Planting infected aeed In diseased soil simply perpetuates tne disease. The way to prevent aeab la to disinfect seed potatoes and plant them In clean soil upon which the crop has not been grown for several yean preceding. Thorough treatment with a eolation of one plat commercial formalin to 46 gallons water will destroy disease spores. ^ Corrosive sublimate also can ha need. Dissolve four ounces ta nVe gallons hot water and after It cools add 15 gallons water. Soak the tubers for one and a half hoars In this solution, when they may he eat and planted. thiB rotation one of the chief advantages is that wheat follows the legume and there is thus plenty of time to prepare the ground for it. it 1B becoming also a general practice in some parts of the corn belt to seed sweet clover In Stand of 8weet Clover. wheat. After the wheat Is harvested the clover makes a rank growth and may be plowed under in the fall or following spring. In this way in each four-year rotation there are two legume crops to plow under and at the same time three grain crops to harvest The rotation may be changed to a five-year one by adding an extra year of corn if this is desired. If the farm is badly run down and much organic matter and nitrogen must be added to the soil before the corn can be raised profitably, sweet clover seeded in the wheat may be el* lowed to stand over for a crop the following year. The rotation will then be as follows: Corn, oats with clover seeding, clover, wheat with sweet clover seeding, sweet clover. If a short rotation 1B desired, one that will be effective in building up a run-down farm is the following: Corn, rye with clover and timothy seeding, clover and timothy. The rye la seeded in the standing corn and the clover and timothy seeded in the rye early In the following spring. The rye. is hogged off and, as the clover matures^ part of it Is used for hog pasture and part for hay. The clover-timothy sod is then turned under for corn. Under this plan all the rye grown is left where it is produced and all the cornstalks cut up and worked into the soil. Fur» ^ cracked corn, |33; corn and oat More thaa a bast at dirt a s * eutts is freezes*!? tssjs* s» a ear etjaata- ^ ^ ^ "& - .SET • thermore, all the manure made by the hogs in gathering the rye and corn is left in the field. Leg Bends Are Cheap. Leg bands are very cheap. When yon tort out your pullets band the right leg; next year hand the left leg and the third year do not band. The fourth year dispose of hens with band on right leg and begin over by banding right leg. Or get celluloid bands, using different colors for eac year. This is better than toe mark lng young chicks.

SOME EASILY-MADE BEDS By EBEN E. REX FORD. Personally, I am not much of an admirer of carpet or ribbon bedding or the "designs" which the enthusiastic amateur gardener attempts, but is pretty' sure to abenddgf M a r «&> the season, because he signs work oat annuals. The fact la, carpet befclnfc are not only effective when such foliage blasts, as the codas, archyranthat, centurea, pyrethrum and alternanthera are used, because they can be kept within their proper limits by shearing and pruning, while the annuals have too much sprawl to be tract* able, aad very lew kinds give a sunV demt mass of blooms to produce the deaired color effect. We are likely to think that because a plant has yellow, red or blue flowers, that it wffl prove effective wher* ever these colors are desired, but we k » e sight of the fatft that the flowers win he t o few to aenber-and so far apart that there la eesdom any soHd color effect sweh aa la necessary In preperry working out patterns. This being the case, oaty the si** pier designs should be attempted with aanaaia, aad only sweh effects aimed at, as can be produced by contrast in plays an important factory, though the tall-growing sorte could be used in three rows, one each of the colors named, with the dwarfs as an edging or border, with very good results. Asters can be planted in rows of white and lavender, with very pleasing results, provided the same kind is UBed in each row. Ribbon beds would become monotonously tiresome If we were to confine ourselves to them, therefore it la advisable to have something else for a change. Next to them the circular bed is easiest to make. I would not advise too many colors. Have the center of one color—say lavender, if asters are used, then a row of pale pink with white in the outside row. This arrangement of colors can be varied to suit individual taste. If sweet alyssum or white candytuft is used as an edging, the effect is heightened, as these plants bring a mass of foliage and bloom down to the ground, and hide the tall sulks of the aBters. A very brilliant combination is made by filling the center of a circular bed wi^h ealliopsis, and the softer shade of the same color In the phlox is charming. If another color seems advisable, use pink phlox. This harmonizes beautifully with the stronger tones of the ealliopsis. The center of a circular bed can be filled with scartet salvia, with nasturtiums as a border. The contrast between the fiery scarlet and the rich tones of yellow and orange and sulphur found In the latter plant, is exceedingly lovely, while the pea-green foliage of the nasturtium affords just the right amount of that color to bring Into strong relief the blossoms of both plants. Such a bed anyone can make with very little trouble. mjmmw TREES H I . VA» MBJThtUVtfst.

A- 'T;- -UP The understanding of sofl is the principal thing to be considered in tree cultivation. Crops, climates aad conditions are so utterly different in the different localities of our country that a set of conditions is a problem ell by Itself. When the sofl is tf eU-worked around the trees of say kind, they are more thrifty aad vigorous. A great many people stir ap the earth between the trees, bat leave the soil directly beneath the trees untouched. This is a mistake. Do act hesitate to apply fertiliser, commercial or barnyard, dose around the trees. Allow a generous supply aad see that It gets a chance to sink Into the sofl deep. Year trees win have a different pearance if this care is driven th la the heavier soils it is a fatal mistake to let the soil bake about the trees or 'vines. This results in an unhealthy condition of the bark, and often a fatal disease. for the finest development of year trees the soil most be brought to the highest point of thorough cultivation aad kept there. * WARE OF BRER RABBIT Hungry rabbits will dare a deal to get at aewly set •rees and wffl venture fej*r elese te the aeose- i s eacet of food.

SPY WHO BOASTS OF HIS GETAWAY OBJECTED TO PROCEEDINGS Confessed German Spy Caught In New York; May Be Returned to the British Government. Norfolk.Va.—Lieutenant Berg, captor and commander of the British liner Appam defied the authority of the United States officials Saturday when Deputy West boarded the liner with a libel process to serve on the German commander. When Deputy West and his party reached the Appam, the ladder was up. The deputy directed that it be lowered and the party went aboard. West stated his mission and was taken to Lieutenant Berg's quarters. The latter at once objected to the proceedings. "If I had known you were the United States marshal/' he said, "I would not have allowed you aboard." The personal process was served, and the deputy then started to tack the usual libel notice on the mast of the vessel. The German commander objected strenuously. "The ship is In charge of Collector Hamilton," he said, "and you have no right here." Lieutenant Berg then left the Appam hurriedly and went to Newport News to telephone. When he returned Deputy West had tacked on the mast of the ship the slip of white paper which certified that the Appam had been seized by order of the United States district court at Norfolk. Lieutenant Berg directed his men to tear it down. Deputy West commanded him not to touch the notice and it remained on the mast Confessed Spy Captured. * New York—Ignatius Timothy Trebitsch Lincoln, self-vaunted international spy who escaped from the federal authorities on January 15, last, and tfcen wrote letters to a newspaper, Staffing the department of justice, we* caught at Broadway and Thirtieth street.

New York—Ignatius T. T. Lincoln, former member of the British parliament and self-confesBed Germany spy, who escaped from a restaurant in Brooklyn where he had been taken by a United States marshal, was captured Saturday night. He congratulated the police for their work in arresting him. "Good work," he exclaimed. "I didn't think you could do it." REPAIRS ARE BADLY NEEDED An Emergency Appropriation of $2,- 757,000 Asked for Mending 8hlp*. Washington—Department of justice officials say that Ignatius T. T. Lin coin probably would be turned over as soon as possible to British agents for removal to England to face charges pending against him there. No charges are pending against him in this country and none are contemplated, but officials have not concealed their concern that he be recaptured and removed from the country. Washington—A $2,757,000 emergency appropriation for immediate necessary repairs of machinery in battleships, torpedo destroyers and submarines, to increase the supply of mines and, for the first time, to equip battleships with anti-aircraft guns, was aked of congress by Secretary Daniels. "Many of our destroyers have reached an age where renewals of extensive portions of their machinery equipment is necessary. The same is true of submarines, both classes of vessels making a big drain on this year's appropriation." The boilers of the battleships Georgia and Virginia, both of which have been in almost constant service for 10 years, have shown much weakness, as to require that these veeeels be withdrawn from active service to have their boilers replaced. In addition the Virginia has recently broken an important part of her machinery which must be renewed, and the long stay of the fleet in Mexican waters last year also caused an unusual repair bill. London—Four German seaplanes made a raid over the east and southeast coast of England, The total casualties are given as two men and one boy killed, and one marine wounded. Considerable material damage was done. The first raiders, two biplanes, appeared over Lowestoft at 10:55 a. m. and circled over the south side of the town for five minutes and dropped bombs. In about five minutes they rose to great night and seemingly vanished. At 11:10 a. m., the two seaplanes were again over the town and then vanished eastward again. Altogether 17 small high-explosive bomb* were dropped. There were no casualties. Meanwhile, two other German seaplanes were making for the Kentish coast The first passed over the Kentish Knock light veaael, dropping bombs in that vicinity at 11:20 a. m. The last raider made straight for Walmer. Reaching that town at 11:27 a. m., flying at less than 2,500 feet, it dropped six bombs and turned sharply to the east. Two of the bombs destroyed roofs and broke windows in the neighborhood. One of them, fell close to a church, blowing in the" windows as the congregation was singing the "te deum." A third bomb fell on a roadway running along the bench, killing one civilian and injuring one marine. U. S. SKINNED FOR MILLIONS General Goethals' Report On Land Purchases Is Startling. PASS NICARAGUAN TREATY U. 8. to Pay Three Million for Canal Rights and Naval Base. Washington—The senate by a vote of 55 to IS ratified the long pending and perslstentnly opposed Nlcaraguan treaty, whereby the United States would acquire a 99-year option on the Nicaraguan canal route and a naval base in the Gulf of Fonseca for 23.000,- 000. Included in the ratification resolution was a provision declaring that the United States, in obtaining the naval base, does not intend to violate any existing rights in the Fonseca gulf of Costa Rica. Honduras and Salvador, which had protested against the proposed acquirement as a breach of international faith. SOME FISHERY LAWS CHANGE Mr. Sweet Talks On the Subject of U. S. Control.

Michigan, suggests that the several states ought voluntarily to transfer complete jurisdiction and authority over the matter of fisheries to the federal government. The opinion of Mr. Sweet is that vastly greater efficiency will be received together with decreased violation of law. "Where there is a variance between the laws of contiguous states," Mr. Sweet says, "as there almost always is, the fishermen in actual practice drop to the level of the least scientific and leaat protective laws. The enforcement of state laws by state wardens is frequently so inefficient that if the matter were not one of the most serious importance it would be considered a joke. They are too well acquainted with the law breakers and too friendly. They sometimes are themselves law breakers." Washington—The suppressed report of Maj.-Gen. George W. Goethals, dealing with the Panama land frauds, whereby the United States will pay $18,000,000 for land worth $1,000,000, was placed in the possession of the house canals committee. In the bold language of a soldier who resented his government's being "robbed," Gen. Goethals set forth that "most summary representations' 'to the Panama republic would be justified by the "robbery" of the United States. He very flatly charged that "palpable perjury" and "scandal" have marked the land awards of the joint land commission. This report, covering the last fiscal year, was suppressed for international reasons as the result of an agreement between the state and war departments.

He thought he would better his condition. In a new country, where he would have wider scope for-'his farming operations, it would not seem essential to refer to Mr. Lohmann, at this particular time, as of .German blood, but for the fact that so many false statements have gone out a s to ill treatment of Germans in Canada. Writing from Willmont, Sask., under date of January 30, 1916, Mr. Lohr mann sayB: "We are perfectly satisfied in this country, and doing well up here. t "I bought a half section of land and took up a homestead, my three sons also took homesteads, two of them buying each 160 acres of land as well. I sold my homestead, and I and one of my sons own a threshing outfit. "The crop this year was good; the oats went 80 to 90 bushels per acre, and wheat went 40 to 50 bushels and the price is fair." Sam Morrow, of Millet Alta., inwriting to Mr. J. M. MacLachlan, Canadian government agent at Watertown, 8. D., says: "I am well pleased with the country. The climate is better than I ever thought it could be so far north; Ideal climate for stock. I have some colts and cattle that have . not been inside of a stable in four years. I consider this a fine country for mixed farming.. I know of farmera around here who had 42 bushels of barley to the acre and 55 bushels of oats to the acre." Jacob Goetz of Piapot, Sask., had 4fc acres of wheat from which he got 1,200 bushels, and got an average of 93 bushels of oats to the acre. Golden Prairie, Sask., is a district largely settled by South Dakotans. Horace Blake is one of those. He says: "The crops of 1915 were immense." Wheat in his locality went from 40 to 55 bushels per acre; oats about 80 bushels on an average. One hundred bushels of potatoes were grown on a quarter of an acre of land; twelve potatoes weighed 30 pounds. His horses run out all winter, and come in fat. He raised excellent corn, and fattened hogs on it. He concludes an Interested letter by saying: "There are schools in every district, t h e people hero are most all hustlers and are fast pushing to the front.

And than: "You're one of the reclamation engineers? Great work the government is undertaking here. Vou are connected with It, arent you?" Broulllard's nod waa for the man. but his words were for the young woman whose beauty refused to be quenched by the touring handicap*. "Yet, I am in charge of It." he said, "Ha!" said the stout man, and this time the exclamation waa purely approbative. "Chief engineer, eh? That's fine, fine! My name is Cortwright— J. Wesley Cortwright of Chicago. And yours is—?" Broulllard named himself in one word. 8trangers usually found him bluntly unresponsive to anything like effusiveness, but he was finding it curiously difficult to resist the goodnatured heartiness which seemed to exude from the talkative gentleman, overlaying him like the honeydew on the leaves In a droughty forest If Mr. J. Wesley Cortwright's surprise on hearing the Broulllard surname was not genuine it was at least Went imitation. well, well—you don't say! the BrouiUards of Knox county, i?—but, of course, you must be." ,* said Broulllard. "Our branch of the family settled near Vlncennes, and my father was on the bench, when he wasn't In politics." "What? Not Juage Antolne! Why, my dear young man! Do you know that I once had. the pleasure of introducing your good father to my bankers In Chicago? It was years ago, at a time when he waa Interested in floating a bond issue for some growing industry down on the Wabash. And^to think that away out here in this howling wilderness, a thousand miles from nowhere, as you might say, I should meet his son!" Broulllard laughed and fell headlong into the pit of triteness. T h e world isn't so very big whan you come to surround i t properly, Mr. Cortwright," he asserted, "You are wondering what fool notion chased ua away out here in the desert when we had a comfortable hotel to stop at," ha rattled on. I'll tell you. Mr. Broulllard—in confidence). It waa curiosity—raw, country curiosity. The papers and magazines have been full of this buckskin reclamation scheme, and we wanted to see the place where all the wonderful miracles were going to gat themselves wrought out Have you got time to *put ua next?*" Broulllard, aa the son of the man who had bean introduced to the Chicago money gods In his hour of need, could scarcely do leas than to take the time. The project, ha explained, contemplated the building of a high dam across the upper ~end of the Nlquete canyon and the converting of the Inland valley above into a great storage reservoir. From this reservoir a aeries of distributing canals would lead the water out upon the arid lands of the Buckskin and the miracle would ha a other pit of triteness and pis saving first Impressions of Mr. J. Wesley Cortwright's character began to fade. I'm immensely Interested," was Miss Cortwright's comment on the outlining of the reclamation project "Do you mean to say that real farms witk green things growing on them can be made out of that frightful desert wa drove over yesterday afternoon f* „ Broulllard smiled and plunged fatuously. - "Oh. yes; the farms are already there. Nature made them, you know; she merely forgot to arrange for their watering." He waa going on to tell about the exhaustive experiments the department of agriculture experts had been making upon the Buckskin soils when the gentleman whose name had>once figured upon countless thousands of lard packages cut in. "Mr. Broulllard, how far la it up to where you are going to build your dam?" "I'll be glad to show you the way if you care to try," Broulllard offered; and the tentative invitation was promptly accepted. The transfer of viewpoints from the lower end of the canyon to the upper was effected without incident aave at its beginning, when the father would have called down to the young man who had waded ashore and waa drying himself before the campfire. "Van Bruce .won't care to go," the daughter hastened to say; and Broulllard, whose gift it waa to he able to pick out and Identify the human derelict at long range, understood perfectly well the reason for the young woman's hasty Interruption. One result of the successfully marketed lard packages was very plainly evident in the dissipated face and hangdog attitude of the marketer's son. Conversation flagged on the climb from the Buckskin level to that of the reservoir valley; but when they reached the pine tree of the anchored blueprints at the upper portal, air. Cortwright recovered his breath sufficiently to gasp his appreciation of the prospect and its possibilities. "Why, good goodness, Mr. Broulllard, It's practically all done for you I" he wheesed, taking in the level, mountain- inclosed valley with an appralslve eye-sweep. ^What will you do?—build your dam right here and take out your canal through the canyon? Is that the plan?" Broulllard nodded and went a little further into details, showing how the inward-arching harrier would be anchored into the two opposing mountain buttresses. "And the structure itself—how high Is it to be?" "Two hundred feet above the spill way apron foot; concrete and steel." "Then you are going to need Portland cement—a whole lot of It Where will you get it? And how will you get It herer Broulllard smiled Inwardly at the pork packer's suddenly awakened interest in the technical ways and means. His four years in the desert had taken him out of touch with a money-making world, and this momentary contact with one of its successful devotees waa Illuminating, the P!Ct : * » . » * • "Sure, aura!" said the cheerful 1st feeling Ten the pocketa of the tomobile coat for a cigar.

"It it a mine," saidrSroulllard. showing Miss Oertwrfgbt how to adjust the fleldglaas for the shorter distance. "Two men named Maaslngale, father and son, are working i t I'm told." And then again to Miss Genevieve: "That is their cabin—on the trail a little to the right of the tunnel opening" "I see it quite plainly," she returned. T w o people are Just leaving it to ride down the path—a man and a woman. I think, though the woman—if it 1B a woman—is riding on a man's saddle." Broulllard'a eyebrows went up in s little arch of surprise. Harding, the topographical engineer who had made all the preliminary surveys and bad spent the better part of the former summer in the Nlquoia, had reported on the Maastngalea, father and son, end his report had conveyed a hint of possible antagonism on the part of the mine owners to the government project But there had been no mention of a woman. "The Maaslngale mine, eh?" broke in the appraiser of values crisply. "They showed us some ore specimens from that property while we were stopping over in Red Butte. It's r i c h - good and plenty rich—if they have the quantity. And somebody told me they had the quantity, too; only it was too far from the railroad—couldn't jackfreight it profitably over the Timanyonis." "In which case it is one of many," Broulllard said, taking refuge In the generalities. But Mr. Cortwright was not to be so easily diverted from the pointed particulars— the particulars having to do with the pursuit of the market trail. "I'm beginning to get my feet on bottom, Broulllard," he said, dropping the courtesy prefix and shoving bis fat hands deep into the pockets of the dust-coat "There's a business proposition here, and it looks mighty good to me. I tell you, I can smell money in this valley of yours—scads of it" Broulllard laughed. "It is only tbe fragrance of future reclamation-service appropriations," he suggested. "There will be a good bit of money spent'here before the Buckskin desert gets its maiden wetting." "I don't mean that at all," was the impatient rejoinder, you: you are going to tion of some sort That's the basis. Then you're going to need cement, lumber and steeL It can be manufactured right here on the spot" "The cement end the lumber can be produced here, but not the steel," Broulllard corrected. "That's where you're off," snapped the millionaire. "There are fine ore beds la the Hophraa and a pretty good quality of coking coal Ten or twelve miles of a narrow-gauge railroad would dump the pig metal into the upper end of your valley, and there you are. With a small reduction plant you could tell the big steel people to go hang." "Unquestionably. But this Is a case of cant-help-it," Broulllard argued. "You couldn't begin to interest private capital in any of those industries you speak o f "Why notr was the curt demand. "Because when the dam Is completed and the spillway gates are closed, the NlQoyastcadJe and everything in it will go down under two hundred feet of water." "The—what?" queried Miss Cortwright "The NlqoyastcadJe — Tlaoe-wherethey- came-up'" said Broulllard, elucidating for her. "That la the Navajo name for this valley. Our map makers shortened it to 'Nlquoia' and the cowmen of the Buckskin foothills have cut that to 'Nick-wire.'" This bit of explanatory place lore waa entirely loot upon Mr. J. Wesley Cortwright He waa chewing the ends of his abort mustaches and scowling thoughtfully out upon the possible site of the future Industrial city of the plain. "Say, Broulllard," he cut in, "you gat mo the right to build that power dam. and giro ma the contracta for what material you'd rather buy than make, and HI be switched if I dout take a abet at this drowning proposition my •alt I tall yon.

"Well have to be straggling hack to the chug-wagon. Much obliged to you* Mr. Broulllard. Will you come down and see us off?" At the final descent in tbe trail, with the Buckskin blankneases showing hotly beyond the curtaining plots, they passed at a step from romance to the crude realities. The realities were basing themselves upon the advent of two newcomers, riding down the Chlgringo trail to the ford which had been the scene of the fish slaughtering; a sunburnt young man in goatskin "chaps," flannel shirt and a flapping Stetson, and a girl whose face reminded Broulllard of one of the Madonnas, whose name and painter he strove vainly to recall. Ten seconds farther along the borses of the pair were sniffing suspiciously at the automobile, and the young man under the flapping hat was telling Van Bruce Cortwright what be thought of cartridge fishermen in general, and of this present cartridge fisherman in particular. "Which the same, being translated into Buckskin English, hollers like/ this," he concluded. "Don't you tots any more fish ca'tridges into this here reservation; not no more, whatsoever. Who says so? Well if anybody should ask, you might say it waa Tig Smith, foreman o' the Tri'-Ctrc* outfit No, 1 ain't no game warden, but what I say goes as'she lays. Saves?" Broulllard walked his companion down to the car and helped he"r to a seat in the tonneau. 8he repaid him with a nod and a smile, and when he saw that the crudities were not troubling her he stepped aside and un consciously fell to comparing the two —the girl on horseback and bis walking mate of tbe canyon passage. They had little enough in common. apart from their descent from Eve, he decided—and the decision itself was subconscious. The millionaire's daugh ter was a warm blonde, beautiful, queenly, a finished product of civilization and high-priced culture; a worn an of the world. And the girl on horseback? A rather slight figure, a face winsome, masses of copper-brown hair. eyes . . . He caught himself wondering if her cowboy lover—he had already Jumped to the sentimental conclusion—had ever been able to look into those steadfast eyes and trifle with the truth. When the fish-slaughtering matter was finally settled—not by the tender of money that Mr. Cortwright had made—the man Smith and bis pretty riding mate galloped through the ford and disappeared among the barren hills. "Au revolr, Mr. Broulllard," said the princess, as the big car righted itself for the southward flight Into the desert "If I were you I shouldn't fall in love with the calm-eyed goddess who rides like a man. Mr. Tri'-Circ' Smith might object you know." There was something almost heartwarming In the bit of parting badinage; but the warmth might have given place to a disconcerting chill if he could have heard Mr. J Wesley Cortwright's remark to his seat companion. "He isn't going to be the dead easy mark I hoped to find in the son of the old bankrupt hair-sputter, Genie, glrL But hell come down and hook himself all right if the bait is well covered T** with his particular Don't you forget it" brand of sugar. ( 1 CHAPTER IV Sands of Pactoha 8J] If Victor Broulllard had been disposed to speculate curiously upon the possibilities suggested by Mr. J. Weeley Cortwright on the occasion of the capitalist's brief visit to the Nlquoia, there was little leisure for It Fairly confronting his problem, Broulllard did not find himself hampered by departmental Inertia. While be waa rapidly organising his force for the constructive attack, the equipment and preliminary material for the upbundV teg of the great dam were piling up by the trainload on the sidetracks at Queaado, and at once the man and beast killing task of rushing the excavating outfit of machinery, teema, scrapers, rock-drilling Installation*, steam shovels, and the like, over die War Arrow trail waa begun.

TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS WHEN BLADDER BOTHERS Harmless to Flush Kidneys snd Neutralize Irritating Acids—Splendid for the 8ystem. Kidney and Bladder weakness result from uric acid, says a noted authority. The kidneys filter this add from the blood and pass It on to the bladder, where tt often remains to Irritate and inflame, causing a burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night The sufferer is in constant dread, the water paeees sometimes with a scalding sensatfcni and is very profuse; again, there te difficulty in avoiding it. Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they can't control urination. While it is extremely ejnegftsg and sometimes very painful, thflS II really one of the most simple' to overcome. Get about four of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids In the urine so tt no longer is a source of irritation to the bladder and urinary organs which than act normally again. Jad Salts is Inexpensive, harmless, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with Uthia, and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by uric acid Irritation. Jad Salts la splendid for kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent llthia-water drink, which quickly relieves bladder trouble.—Adv. Gambling.

To Find the Water Level In Soil. In the Farm and Fireside is the following advice to the farmer who is Jfoout to plant Ms crops: , "The water level is a term used in speaking about soils. It means tho depth in the ground where the soil is saturated with moisture. "To 2nd it simply take a post hole digger and dig dowii unta water stands at the bottom of the hole. Do this in an ordinary seasoa when the ground has about the average amount of moisture. For most crops the water level should be about three feet below the surface, for alfalfa at least five feet. A w^ater level two to three feet deep is excellent for the majority of farm crops.'' Pry hacking coijahS Muft neV« S» neglected.

The United- States- 7 of America is now in the midst of a great crisis—one of three. The first was the desperate struggle of the baby republic to maintain life between 1776 and 1815. The second was the terrific fever which rattled the bones of the half-grown nation from 1861 to 1866. The third is different The hungry, blood-mad wolves of war are snarling all about us. We are charged with the problem of taking means bf defense against the time when they may turn from their carcasses to attack us. We must Insure for ourselves prosperity. For the good of the whole we must assume the task of harmonizing all the multitude of discordant and misunderstanding groups of people that compose our body politic—men and women of a great variety of racial antecedents, of political tenets, of religious beliefs, of capital and labor, of education and Ignorance—and weld them into one great patriotic mass. We must keep friendship with rur neighbors to North and South and across the seas. So in this time of stress It behooves us to keep our national temper and deal fairly and mean what we say. It is well worth while to consider the historian Lecky's description of George Washington: "In the despondency of long continued failure, in the elation of sudden success, at times when his soldiers were deserting by hundreds, and when malignant plots were formed against his reputation, amid the constant quarrels, rivalries, and jealousies of his subordinates, in the dark hour of national ingratitude, and in the midst of the most universal and intoxicating flattery. Washington was always the same calm, wise, just and single minded man, pursuing the course which he believed to be right without fear or favor or fanaticism; equally free from the passions that spring from Interest and from the passions that spring from Imagination. "He never acted on the impulse of an absorbing or uncalculatlng enthusiasm, and he valued very highly fortune, position, and reputation; but at the command of duty he was ready to risk and sacrifice them all. "He was, in the highest sense of (he words, a gentleman and a man of honor, and he carried into public life the standard of private morals. "It was at first the constant dread of large sections of the American people that if the old government were overthrown they would fall into the hands of military adventurers and undergo the yoke of military despotism. It was mainly the transparent Integrity of the character of Washington that dispelled the fear." There has rarely been a time when the people had more need of the lessons of Washington's life than now. We are in the midst of the uncertainties visited upon us, as a people at peace, by a conflagration which has enveloped a continent in war. In a year of peace, of sowing and reaping, of the productive activities of market and factory, we suddenly foind ourselves face to face with the peril of such a panic as the world had never witnessed. Industry withered as under a blight; trade dried up at the roots; our chief export crop lost for a time two-thirds of its value; specie payments were suspended in our financial centers, instead of having heavy trade balances in our favor, we were called upon for gold by the ton to pay for securities sent back to us by foreign investors. Want and destitution appeared where there had been plenty. We have come far since those black days, but a dangerous road still stretches before us. Let as remember Washington, the commander in chief of one battle. That was Yorktown. Washington took the command of the armies of the colonies in July, 1975. He received the surrender of Cornwallis in October, 1781, s o r t than six years later. These six years were spent in avoiding battle. Ther* waa ode brilliant sortie—the battle of Trtoton. But the history of his campaigns is the history of skillful retreats, like that which followed Trenton, rear-guard actions, defensive fights when attacked, disastrous offensive movements JTks that on Garmantown. Ha had no government behind hiss —only a k>oae "Confederation of colonies; which refused to pay tbetrJevIe* and loft hiss at one time with a discouraged remnaat of only 2,ao* to*. dlers. He avoided battle with ther Bestiah; he used the sits of the Indian fighter sad sapped sen of the very Jaws of disaster; ho moved from esses to place. But fas oonst not evade has gsr. oali. ,WHU? • » ^*i':' discipline and subordination not only requires time but is a work of great difficulty and in this country, where there is so little distinction between the officers and soldiers, requires an uncommon degree of attention. To expect the same service from raw and undisciplined recruits as from the veteran soldiers is to expect what never did and perhaps never will happen.—Washington* attack. The siege of Yorktown waa a splendid thing—but the real test came at Valley Forge. When at last the hour came to fight, fighting was easy by comparison with the waiting that had preceded i t ~ On July 2, 1775, General Washington arrived at Cambridge, Maaa^ accompanied by Major General Lee, his next in command, and other officers, and established headquarters in the mansion, subsequently occupied by Longfellow. About nine o'clock on the mornUg of the following day, attended by a suitable escort, he proceeded from his headquarters to a great elm tree near Harvard college. Here the Continental forces were drawn up in military order. Under the shadow of the tree Washington drew his sword as commander in chief of the American army, declaring thaff it should never be sheathed until the liberties of his country were established. Finally the day came for Washington to take leave of his army—October 18. 1?£S. For the last time he assem bled them at Newburgh, N. Y„ when ha rode ont on the field and gave them one of those paternal addresses which so eminently characterised hia relationship with his army . But his final leave of everything connected with his military life* was taken on December a, 178V at Faunces* tavern. Now York city.

A profound silence followed as the officers gaaed at the countenance of their leader, while the eyes of all were wet with tears. He then expressed again his desire that each of them should come and take his hand. One after another followed, receiving and <• returning the affectionate adieu of their commander, after which he left, the room Jn silence, followed by his officers in- procession to embark in the bery» that "was to convey him to Panlns Hosk, now Jersey City. As he was passing through the light infantry, drawn np on either side to receive him, an old soldier who was by bis side on the terrible night of his march to Trenton, stepped ont of the ranks and reached out his arms, exclaiming: "Farewell, my dear general farewell!" Washington seised his hand most heartily, when the soldiers forgot all discipline, rushed toward their chief and bathed hia with their tears. The scene wss like that of a good patriarch taking leave of his children and going on a long journey whenos he might return no morsvj - Having entered the barge, he tamed to ths Weeping company upon the wharf and, waving his bat, bads them s silent adieu.

Paris,—There are now 66,449 women in the French Red Cross volunteer army, equipping 1,500 hospitals with an aggregate of 118,000 beds. The Red Cross flag now flies over 288 buildings in Paris -alone. The Society for Aid to Wounded Soldiers, the largest of the three Red Cross organizations and the originator of the work in France in 1864, spent 32,000,000 fraca during the first 17 monthB of the war. The society has operated 796 hospitals, containing ,47,081 beds, and given a total of 21,- 000,000 days' care to wounded soldiers. Besides these hospitals, the society maintains a hospital of 500 beds at Salonlki, 93 refuges established in the sixth and twentieth military regions in France, 70 infirmaries in railroad stations and 45 railroad canteens. The mortality among the Red Cross nurses has been remarkably heavy, considering the character of their work and the immunity they are supposed to enjoy under international regulations. Twenty-two members of the society for Aid to the Wounded Soldiers have given, their lives to the cause, some of them killed under shell fire, others carried off by contagious diseases. Nurses of this society have received 63 epidemic medals, 60 war crosses and one cross of the Legion of Honor. New Strength for Lame Backs end Worn-out Condition!

There, can be no doubt that no important concessions will be made by Britain to America, even in view of the possibility of an American embargo, but every effort will be made by soft words to prevent wrath rising In the United States. If the attitude of Washington hardens if will be due to a bargain between the administration and Count von Bernstorff, does not tend to lessen the distinct bitterness which has crept into the tone of men who have hitherto expressed confidence that previous American protests to London were not intended to be taken seriously.

A SCHEME FOR FEDERAL PAY Would Increaae the National Guard Seventy Thousand in Time of Peace—Separate Branch of tf There t- a Damp, Low Spot In Vour Garden Convert It Into a Pond LUy Bed. GROWING WATER LILIES Fortunate are those having a natural pond or site where one may be easily constructed. Yet a miniature pond in the garden Is within the reach of anyone. In selecting a site, choose one. If possible, partly shaded from the noonday glare, yet having the full benefit of the morning sun. This should be prepared the fall before In order to be fully decomposed Lilies open in the morning and close at least partially during the middle of the day, hence the more they are protected from the Intense heat the more lasting will be the blossoms. It should be on low ground, the top being preferably Just below the ground level. Tf there is not a natural depression. an artificial one can easily be made, the earth removed from the pool being arranged at the proper place at the sides to make a gradual slope. It should be about two feet deep for our native lilies and lotus, but another foot must be added if you are so ambitious as to try to grow that giant beauty, Victoria Regina. Have it protected from high winds in some way; trees or shrubs serve nicely. The material used in making the pond may be concrete or brick. An outlet or an overflow pipe are essen tial. Unless the pond Is large, one must be shy of trying many varieties, as the stronger soon crowd out the weaker. If the tank with pipes Is not within reach, a beautiful effect may be obtained by sinking a tub or half barrel into the ground and placing one or two plants in i t The soil should be very rich and filled in to a depth of two-thirds. An ideal soil is made by composting barnyard manure with rich sods of a loamy nature, using in the proportion of one and two-thirds, respectively. Sprinkle a little sand over the top and fill the tank with water. With a sunny exposure during a part of the day, the plants will grow and bloom nicely. Unless one Is willing to pipe the water, it must be supplied aa needed, by filling from pails. As the plants need very little other care, this can well be afforded. ABOUT EDIBLE FLOWERS Rose leaf preserve Is made in Turkey, and carnations, lavender, syrlnga are crystallized for confections. The violet is recognized as an edible titbit almost everywhere it grows. In many parts of Europe it Is the custom to*make use of roses, violets and lime blossoms (or flavoring. A delicious orange flower candy or conserve is made of tiny bitter embryo oranges picked from the blossom's center. Sandwiches are made with nasturtiums as a filling. Nasturtiums are probably the moat-used edible flower. Its young leaves, seed pods and stems with or without the flowers form an appetizing salad and add flavor to sauces, gravies, meat dishes and sal* ads made of potatoes and herns. In England finely chopped spearmint is used in sandwiches spread with thin cheese. Another food flower is cauliflower. This Is truly a flower that Is eaten, for the snowy flowers are the unexpandad flowers of a variety of cabbage. The Mexicans and French eat the tuber of the dahlia. It is somewhat acrid and was introduced into Europe for the commercial purpose of sapplanting or supplementing the potato. The dandelion makes a wine, while the young, tender leaves make the finest kind of greens and are also delightful in salad Elderberry blossoms make a white wine, the berry makes a blue wine, while the elderblow tea was a favorite remedy of our grandmothers. is The Houseman's Aversion. "How did you know that man married r asked one woman. "Because," replied tho other, "as soon as he ^ame into the room be shied at the rubber tree." Washington—The proposals of the national guard association for federalization of the state troops were before the military committees of congress in the form of a bill drafted by representatives of the association at the request of the senate committee. The regulations contemplated are given^ force by a provision limiting participation in the federal pay feature to officers, men or organisations complying with certain specified requirements. The scale of annual pay proposed is as follows: Major-generals, $800; brigadiers, $700; colonels, 9600; lieutenant-colonels, $550; majors, 1525; captains, )500; first lieutenants, $30.0; second lieutenants, $250. Enlisted men would be paid on the basis of 25 per cent of the pay rates of the regular army, a private receiving "approximately $45 a .year. The mtximum number of troops provided for by the bill is 500 for each congressional district, or a total peace strength of approximately 200,000, an increase of 70,000 over the preaent strength of the national guard. They would form a separate branch of the regular army in time of war when called Into the federal service. The act would take effect July 1, 1916. The bill provides also for organisation of a junior guard, composed of boys between 12 and 18 available for active service only after every other class of militia had been called out. The juniors would be divided into two classes, cadets, or those of 15 and above, and cadets of the second class, those less than 15. An enlistment contract would be required under which the soldier would bind himself to serve the federal government "within or without the continental limits of the United States" for a period of two years or until discharged should the guard be called out at any time during his three year enlistment period. The entlistment period of any soldier whose time was close to expiration when his regiment was called out would b* extended automatically. It is proposed to do away with choice of officers by election, and commissions would be limited to specified classes and granted only after examinations by the war department Promotions during active service weuld be made by the president from the commissioned force or ranks of the organization, dependent upon the grade to be filled. This clause is aimed at appointments from civil life. Members of both the senate and house committee who had looked over ihe measure said it'would require radical amendment, in their opinion, before it would be acceptable to congress. It will be discussed, section by section, by the house committee which probably will frame the national guard measure to be enacted by both houses while the' senate committee works out the regular army feature of preparedness plans.

Y.—Local newspaper offices were advised that every edition of every American paper would first be rigidly examined by officers of the Canadian militia, acting on orders of the Dominion war department, and circulation stopped In every instance where stories were carried "detrimental to the welfare of Canada." Newspaper men who were assigned to investigate new movements of troops along the frontier were turned back at t h e bridge. ITEMS OF STATE INTEREST Lansing.—John Russell, Detroit, attorney representing the Michigan State Telephone Co., filed with the railroad commission last week a brief asking relief from the assessed valuation of its Michigan properties in the sum of $1,500,000. Last year the company was assessed by the commission at $17,000,000 on its Michigan proper ties, this year $18,500,000. The total additions made by the company, according to its sworn state meat, totaled $438,189 in 1915, and the brief recites the fact that depreciation for the same period written off the property of the company amounted to $458,55«. Attention is called to the fact that the company was forced in 1914 to withdraw $300,000 from its surplus to meet Interest obligations and pay a 6 per cent dividend to its stockholders and that even then following such appropriation there was a shortage ef $69,500. This led to suspension of dividends en its common stock after September. 1914, so that in 1915 the holders of $6,000,000 of the issues of the company received but 1 1-2 per cent income on their investment This Company paid out $272,000 of losaer in the year 1913. It has paid during the past five years 9,539 losses and a total of $435,358 to people who have had their buildings wrecked in the State of Michigan. The Company has about 40,000 members, and $86,000,000 of assessable capitaL The Company has made only six assessments in nineteen years; thirteen out of the nineteen not a single dollar collected by assessment from any member of this- Company. No assessment was made in the year 1915, and yet the Company had on hand January 1st, 1916, about $80,000 izt cash. There are about one hundred mutual companies in Michigan covering fire insurance; they save the farmers of Michigan about $1,000,000 over the cost in stock companies each year. The saving in> cyclone insurance is much greater. Because of our large membership with only one overhead expense, mutual insurance against cyclone, in our Company, on account of the low cost and efficient service,, has appealed to the farmers and business: men of every section of the State. The many cyclones and tornadoes whichhave ruined people in nearly every part of the State should be a warning to you. Insure your property whether it be in the city er country, in a safe Company.

He was of a type rare enough to be noteworthy—a well-knit figure of a man, rather under the normal stature, but bulging athletically in the loose-fitting khaki of the engineer; dark of akin, and owning a face which might have served aa a model for a yierge etudy of a fighting frsnc-tlreur. "I dont remember how early In the game the thing began," he resumed, ignoring Grislow's Joking Interruption, •*iejt away back in the dimmest dawn* hugs the number seven began to nave • curious significance for me.

"Tea; and since that time you have staved your way through the university, and butted into the reclamation service, and played skittles with every other man's chances of promotion until you have come out at the top of the heap In the construction division, all of which you're much too modest to brag about. But, say; we've skipped one of the seven-year flag stations. What happened when ybn were twenty-one—or were you too busy lust then chasing the elusive engineering degree to take noticeT" Broulllard was staring out oyer the loom of the dozen campflres—out and across the valley at the massive bulk of Mount Chlgringo rising like a huge barrier dark to the skyline save for a single pinprick of yellow light fixing the position of a solitary miner's cabin half way between the valley level and the summit When he spoke again the hydrographer had been given time to shave another pipe charge of tobacco from his pocket plug and to fill and light the brier. "When I was twenty-one my father died, and"*-he stopped short and then went on in a tone which waa more than half apologetic—"I don't mind telling, Orislow; you're not the kind to pass it on where it would hurt At twenty-one I was left with a back load that I am carrying to this good day; that I will probably go on carrying through life." Grislow walked around the fire, kicked two or three of the charred log ends into the blase, and growled when the resulting smoke rose up to choke and blind him. "Forget it Victor/' he said. "In less than a hundredth part of that time youll be at the top of the reclamation service pay roll—wont that help^utr "No; not appreciably." Grislow gave It up at that and went back to the original contention. "We're dodging the main issue," he said. "What la the active principle of your 'sevens'—or haven't you figured it outr "Change," was the prompt rejoinder; "always something different— radically different" "And what started you off into the memory woods, particularly tonight?" "Coincidences. It began with that hopelessly unreliable little clock that Anson persists In carrying around with him wherever he goes. While you Broulllard Was Staring Out Over the Loom of the Camp Fires. were op on the hill cutting your spruce tips Anson wont over to bis lent and lighted up, and a few minutes afterward I heard the clock strike seven.

She's got so she keeps Pacific time with one band and eastern with the other.' Then I understood that he had been tinkering with It and bad merely gone over to Griffith's tent for the tools." "Well," said Grislow again, "what of it? The clock struck seven, you say; but it also struck four." Broulllard'a smile tilted his curling mustaches to the sardonic angle, "The combination was what called the turn, Grissy. Today happens to be my twenty-eighth birthday—the end of the fourth cycle of seven." "By George!" ejaculated the hydrographer in mock perturbation, sitting up so suddenly that he dropped his pipe into the ashes of the fire, "In that case, according to what seems to be the well-established custom, something is due to fall in right now!" "I have been looking for it all day," returned Broulllard calmly. It was Murray Grislow who finally rang the curtain call on the prolonged talk, "Say, man! do you know that ft is after ten o'clock?" he demanded, holding the face of his watch down to the glow of the dying embers. "You may sit here all night if you like, but it's me for the blankets. Now, what In the name of a guilty conscience la that?" As it chanced, they were both facing toward the lower end of the valley when the apparition flashed into view. In the deepest of the shadows at the mouth of the gorge, where the torrenting Niquola straightened Itself momentarily before entering upon its plunging race through the mountain barrier a beam of white light flickered unsteadily for a fraction of a second. Then It became a luminous pencil to trace a slgxag line up the winding course of the river, serosa to the foothill spur where the camp of the reclamation service vanguard waa pitched, and so on around to the base of the Chlgringo. For certain other secoods It remained quiescent glowing bale- ' fully like the eye of some fabled monster searching for Its prey. Then it was gone. Grislow's comment took the form of a half-startled exclamation. "By Jove! wouldn't that give you a fit of the creeples?—this far from civilisation and a dynamo? What are you calling it?" "Your guess is as good as mine," was the half-absent reply. Broulllard had got upon his feet and was buttoning his .many-pocketed shooting coat "I'm going to take a little hike down yonder for investigation purposes. Want to come along r But the mapper of watersheds was yawning sleepily. "Not on your tintype," he refused. Tm going to 'cork it orf In me 'ammick,'" It was only a abort mile from the camp on the Inward slopes of the eastern foothills to the month of the outlet gorge, across which Broulllard could already see, in mental prevision, the great gray wail ot the projected Niquola dam—his future work—curving majestically from the broken shoulder of Chlgringo to the opposing steeps ot Jack's mountain. The half-grown jnoon, tilting now toward the skyline of the western barrier, was leaving the canyon portal in deepest gloom. Picking his way Judiciously because the trail was new to him. Broulllard came In due time to the descending path among the spruces and scrub pines leading to the westenfootlcok upon the desert swales and sandhills. At the canyon portal, whore the forest thinned away and left him standing at the head ot the final descending plunge In the trail, he found himself looking down upon the explanation of the curious apparition. None the less, what he saw was to ttsetf rather inexplicable. Is the first desert looping of the river a campflre of pinyon knots was bhutng cheerfully, and beside It with a picnic hamper for a table, sat s supper party <l threetwo men sad a woman—in enveloping dust-coats, and a third man In ohanffeur leather serving the sfttors. Back of the group* uud with its detachable searchlight ntfastag, stool a huge touring car to account for the picnic has* par, the dust-costs, the mas hi leather, and, doubtless, tor thwapparitfoaal eye which had appeared sad dluappaurei at tho moot* of the) upper suras It soimuhtd hi for tho presssca of the peoalch ers, though the) whim which them to cross the desolate Bucks** tor tho 4 » ing an all-night bivouac on Its eastern edge was not so readily apparent The young engineer saw no reason why he should intrude upon the group at the cheerful campfire. On the coo trary, he began speedily to find good and sufficient reasons why he should not That the real restraining motive was a sudden attack of desert shyness he would not have admitted But the fact remained. Four years In the reclamation service had made the good looking young chief of construction a man-queller of quality. But each year of Isolation had done something toward weakening the social ties A loosened pebble turned the scale. When a bit of the coarse-grained sand stone of the trail rolled under Broulllard 's foot and went clattering down to plunge Into the stream the man in the chauffeur leather reached for the searchlight lantern and directed Its i>eam upon the canyon portaL But by that time Broulllard had sought the shelter of the scrub pines and was retracing his steps up the shoulder of the mountain. Broulllard was not what the West calls "Jumpy." Four years of field work, government or other, count for something; and the man who has proved powder-shy In any stage of his grapple with the Land of Short Notice is customarily a dead man. In Bpite of his training, however, the young chief of construction, making an early morning exploration ot the site for the new dam. winced handsomely when the shock of a distance-muffled explosion trembled upon the crisp morning air, coming, as it seemed, from some point near the lower end of the canyon. The detonating crash reminded blm forcibly that the presence of the touring party was asserting itself. The explosion was too heavy to figure as a gunshot. Therefore it must have been an accident of some sort—possibly the blowing up of the automobile. Between this and a hurried weighting of the sheaf of blueprints with his fleldglass preparatory to a first-aid dash down the outlet gorge, there was no appreciable interval But when he came to his outlook halting place of the night before, he saw that there had been no accident The big touring car. yellow with the dust of the Buckskin, stood Intact on the sand fiat Where it had been backed and turned and headed toward the desert Wading in the shallows of the river with a linen dust robe for a seine, the two younger men of the party were gathering the choicest of the dead mountain trout with which the eddy was thickly dotted. Coming toward him on the upward trail, and climbing laboriously to gain the easier path among the pines, were the two remaining members of the party—an elderly, pudgy, stockUy built man with a gray face, stiff gray mustaches and sandy-gray eyea to match, and the young woman, booted, gauntleted, veiled, and bulked Into shapelessness by her touring coat Broulllard had a sudden rush of blood to the anger cells when he realised that the alarm which had brought him two hard-breathing miles out ot his way had been the discharge ot a stick of dynamite thrown into the Niquola tor the fish-killing purpose. In his cods the dynamiting ot a stream figured as a high crime. But the two on the traH had come up. and bis protest wss forestalled by the elderly man with the gray face and the sandy-gray eyes, whose explosive "Hal** waa as much a measure of his breathlessnesa as of his surprise.

The Liquor Dealers circulate fnl-e statements iu regard to prohibition in Kansas- The state regi «strar, W. J. Deacon showed that the death rate in Kansas was ouly y.8 to 1.000. When asked the reason T?hy, this was among the a reasons given. "Kansas is a prohibi tion Mate 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 giloou means much to our growing boy8 and young men, who, in the absenos of any bar room, find more healthful pastimes than loafing in an alcohol ladened atmospere. "Another and more important fact concerning prohibition it that tbe wage of the laborer or mechanic is not dissipated, hot goes to supply those necessities of food, clothing and boosing moat essential to the well being of their families and themselves," M. E. S. and ove" in the air. Another thing that will seem peculiar | to most people is the action of gravity J on a bullet If a gun bo fired exactly \ horizontally the bullet will have to be i pulled down by gravity exactly sixteen » feet during the first second. So if there ] were no sights on a gun and it was levele by means of a hand level and fired the bullet would hit something exactly sixteen feet below the gun at a distance away equal to the velocity of the bullet t>er second. \ No matter what the bullet's velocity, j gravity will pull it down sixteen feet during the first second* or If the bullet be tired upward gravity will take from its upward velocity thirty-two feet during the first second. The bullet itself kt.. its uxis alwsys in tho direction ihe axis bad when the bullet Issued from the gun. This is the well known gyroscopic principle made use of in the gyroscopic compass and the monorail car—that a rotating body will maintain its axis of rotation in the same direction unless a moment of force be applied to i t But what actually happens with (he modern high powered rifle? Docs It shoot a bullet that goes in sideways? To n slight extent it may be stated that the modern anny bullet docs do that very thing:.' Its velocity, however, is so enormous that the gun barrel docs not have to bo elevated through so large nn angle, and consequently the bullet enters fairly on its noso, though not squarely so, at all ordinary ranges. The same may be said of the bigger guns. They have rifling in them and so give rotation and gyroscopic net Ion I to tho projectiles.

The mortar projec- J tiles are generally round, so that it will ! not matter how they strike. | The reason a bullet cannot be made 1 so that it will always enter a target squarely on its nose is that for every rango a fltfferently shaired bullet would have to be manufactured; also the bullet should be symmetrical, so that the air will exert -no disturbing influence on its distorted parts. A bullet has a distinct curve like that j of a baseball, due to its rotntlon, and ' this curve is independent of the parab-' ola given by gravity. The smoother i and more polished a bullet is the less • is this curve. But the action of the ] rifling in a gun barrel puts little j grooves in the bullet as it goes through j the barrel. These catch the air as the bullet rotates and causes the curve spoken of. If the bullet be rotated in the direction of the hands of a clock the curve will make the bullet go to the left of the exact point aimed a t The effect is so small, however, that it does not have to be taken Into account in the manufacture of rifles and ammunition. —Xew York American. **»gTW7 Vs«r Is a TitnA. •for Sale Every where" M e r Picile CoBtrato Contracts for growing encmnber pickle for the season of 1916 may now be had from o o r repre* SHQtative N .

If you must have your meat every day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted author ity who tells us that meat forms uric acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their efforts to eipel it from the blood". They become sluggish and weaken, then you suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pain* in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue coated and when the weather is bad have rheumatic twinges.

This famous salts is made from the acids of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralise the acids in urine, so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness.

Despite his reputation as a teller of humox JUS stories and his keen appreciation of the ludlcrqus in persons and situations that bore the outward appearance of utmost dignity and funereal solemnity, the martyred president was a melancholy man. The whole course of his life had made him so. In childhood he endured the most rigorous hardship in the wilds of southern Indiana and central Illinois. His father was a sort of ne'er-do-well who somehow couldn't seem to gather any of this world's goods together. His mother was a patient, God-fearing toiler who held no hope of reward in mortal life. This mother encouraged his efforts at learning when he was a little fellow, and just when mother and son were getting to be chummy and have their times of reading aloud together she died—after only a week's illness. The son's grief was lasting. When he was twenty-two, Lincoln fell in love with little Ann Rutledge. who was wearing her heart out in grief for a faithless lover. After a time, Lincoln won little Ann's regard and they planned to marry—though he was desperately poor. Came a streak of good luck; he went to the legislature at Springfield and Bhe went to Jacksonville, 111., to a young ladies' academy. Presently Lincoln got word that she was ill. One week later she was dead. This sorrow Lincoln added to his early grief. Years later, the tall, awkward country lawyer was elected president of the United States—an honor unsurpassable. But with it came the ghastly tragedy of civil strife. And to his sorrow and his grief of old he added this load of sadness. Four years and more Lincoln plodded slowly along under the burden, a national mourner. Then through the clouds came a ray of sunshine. The war was nearing an end. The president saw peace ahead. He planned to bind a nation's wounds—North and South alike. He became happier—rather, he became less unhappy, for his spirit was expanding. But once again the glittering lance of malignant fate shot out This time it brought down the victim it had played with for half a century—A. Lincoln! The following telegram, one of the many instances of his works of mercy and compassion, was sent by Abraham Lincoln from the White House on his last birthday alive. It typifies the spirit of the man in the last days of his life and is exemplary of the attitude he took, not only towards individuals but toward the peoples and the states who were opposed in arms to the Union. "Major General Hooker, Cincinnati, Ohio; "la it Lieut Sanfuel D. Davis whose death sentence is commuted. If not done, let it be done. Is there not an associate of his also in trouble t Please answer. A. LINCOLN." The military rigors of the closing days of the war compelled harsh measures, not only in dealing with the enemy but in dealing with those within the forces of the North who were guilty of desertion, neglect or treachery, and the columns of the dally papers of the time were replete with para' graphs headed, as a rate, "Bxecotfcm at the Oonepiratms," "The 8ptas Shot" T l The famous QndUa munity Par Piate Silver ware FREE with— vl birthday, February 12, 1865, show that f at all. This message was received he was giving especial attention to these matters. In the month of Febru* curred in the house. of his papers daring the ami foitesffag ate ary alone he sent at least ten telegrams suspending or delaying executions or asking for full reports of the trials for his personal examination.' In some cases he upheld the decree of the military courts, in others he issued pardons, and it is said that in at least one case the man who had been convicted was in reality a government secret service agent unknown to the military authorities who had convicted him for the very acts he committed in the service of the Union. It has been asserted by some biographers of Lincoln that he felt premonitions of his death In the months following his second election and if this be tnre it is possible that the shadow over his soul may have caused him to be more clement than was his rule. All are agreed that he was always compassionate and slow to condemn, but he was sensible of the necessity for stern Justice and was not given to mock mercy of the weakkneed, sentimental kind. The president's birthday itself had no special significance in 1865. It is doubtful if many outside his immediate family realized when the day occurred. It would be a small percentage of Americans today who could state the date of President Wilson's birth and in the last stages of the Civil war the nation was too sorely beset by pressing, vital problems, sorrow and anxiety to recognize the birthday of the man who himself was the vortex of all the maelstrom of political, military and executive activities. It is known, however, that Lincoln's last birthday season saw the president more cheerful, more hopeful of a peace which should save the Union than he had been at any other time during the war. He had recently met commissioners of the Confederate government on a steamer at Hampton Roads and although the interview had led to nothing, the president felt that the dissension evident between the commissioners from the South meant a speedy conclusion of the conflict Nicolay and Hay, writing of the president's general feeling in February, 1865, says: "His interview with the rebel commissioners doubtless strengthened his former convictions that the rebellion was waning in enthusiasm and resources, and that the Union cause must triumph at no distant day. Secure in his renewal of four years' personal leadership and hopefully Inspirited by every sign of early victory in the war, his only thought was to shorten by generous conciliation the period of dreadful conflict His temper was not one of exultation, but of broad, patriotic charity and of keen, sensitive personal sympathy for the whole country and all its people, South as well as North. His conversation with Stephens, Hunter and Campbell had probably revealed to him glimpses of the undercurrent of their anxiety that fraternal bloodshed and the destructive ravages of war might somehow come to an end." Just before the president's birthday the house of rcpresentaUFOs paased a resolution requesting the president to ranmninirate to it each ta/Ormatkm as he might deem oomparihte with the ptfsQc Interest concerning his interview with the Ooatedersts emnmhv The pr wail sat ssmvto the) which actually board the to February 10 and a short discussion oc- Accordlng to Nicolay and Ha£: "It (the discussion) did not rise above the level of an ordinary party wrangle. The few Democrats who took part in it complained of the president for refusing an armistice, while the Republicans retorted with Jefferson Davis' conditions about the 'two countries' and the more recent declarations of his Richmond harangue, announcing his readiness to perish for independence. On the whole, botb congress and the country were gratified that the incident had called out Mr. Lincoln's renewed declaration of an unalterable resolve to maintain the Union. Patriotic hope was quickened and public confidence strengthened by noting once more his singleness of purpose and steadfastness of faith. No act of his could have formed a more fitting prelude to his second inauguration, which was now rapidly approaching, and the preliminary steps of which were at this time consummated." This feeling throughout the country and In congress was becoming evident to the president on his last birthday, so much so that he commented on it to his friends and advisers. It showed him that the nation was behind him, and that he would be supported to the completion of his work of cementing the Union. Almost in the nature of a birthday gift came the formal announcement to President Lincoln that he had been elected president of the United States. On the very day of Lincoln's birthday the first of the cotton ships Sherman had sent from Savannah put into New York and Newport, R. I. The newspapers of February 13 featured the dispatches announcing the arrival of the vessels and .commenting with favor on the prospects of getting great cargoes of cotton from the newly opened ports of the South. The dailies were also filled with dispatches telling of the progress of Grant's campaign against Lee, which was beginning so to formulate itself that Appomattox should end the war, and that Sherman had completed his march to the sea. None viewed the approach of peace with greater gratification than did Lincoln, and it waa with the spirit of this period of his last birthday upon him that he wrote his second inaugural address, which is fraught with human sympathy, so expressive of the character of the man. The sad story of the great president's death is familiar to all. That it was to follow so closely on his teat birthday, so lightened by hope and gratitude for the success of the Union cause, none could foresee, unless, as some writers declare, the president himself had forebodings of i t In all events, it is pleasant to eontemplate that the closing months of Abraham Lincoln's life were gifted with a feeling of peace which for long he had not known.

"Reason enough, Pat Didn't you promise me you'd be in the thickest of the fight, and didn't I catch you actually running away, you rascal?" "Running away, is it? indeed, captain, but ye deceive yerself. It was in remembrance of my promise, sir, that I was runnln' around tryin' to find out just where the fight was the thickest, so I was." Not Easy to Explain. "That boy of mine is always asking questions." "Oh, well, perhaps he wants to learn something." "Maybe so, but his iuqulsitiveness is rather distressing to me at times." "Yes?"

O. Learned. A .prominent physician down In Georgia went through a food experience which he makes public: "It was my own experience that first led me to advocate Grape-Nuts food; and I also know from having prescribed it to convalescents and other weak patients that this food is a wonderful rebuilder and restorer of nerve and brain tissue, aa well as muscle. It improves the digestion and patients gain, Just as I did in strength and weight, very rapidly. "I waa in such a low state that I had to give up my work entirely and go to the mountains, but two months there did not improve me; m fast i was not quite as wefl aa when f left home. My food did not sustain me and it became plain that I a m change. 1 began to use Grape-Nats and in two weeks I could walk a mile, and hi five weeks returned to my hems and practice, taking up hard work agate.

The plumage should be the standard length for the breed, lustrous and plentiful, the head bright red in color, and the comb developed to the required size. The specimen should appear In handsome dress, good physical condition, and trained to exhibit his good qualities to advantage. Careful training imparts to a bird sufficient confidence to assume and hold desired poses under show-room conditions. If possible, obtain exhibition coops similar to those used at the show you will attend. Cover the floor with short straw or a mixture of bran and straw for feathered-leg breeds. Two months before the show place the birds you intend to exhibit In the coops at night. Visit the coops as frequently as you can and handle the birds often. Carry them around under the arm, open their wings and examine the undercolor, and accustom them to every movement of the judge. It is not advisable or necessary to keep the show birds confined tn the training coops. A day at a time Is sufficient Then, allow them the run of the house tor two or three days and outdoor exercise If seasonable. All white fowls must be washed, and most fowls of other colors can be improved in appearance by washing, fluffing, and grooming before the show. For white birds have three tubs filled with (1) warm, soft or rain water; (2) warm* soft or rain water; (3) warm, soft, or rain water colored the proper shade to rinse the blue white goods. Use a bar of good white or castile soap and a large sponge and a nail brash. Have the temperature of the room 80 degrees or 85 degrees and bring the birds In clean exhibition coops, the floor* of which should be covered with fresh, dry shavings. Wash the males first Clean the START IN POULTRY BUSINESS UUdJLmUSMAU.DQSLSMMLnXM. bear n W m t l i r r 4tV H#ie> '-[/ J » " r lljfmm^Utt Irtbri Two Big Advantages Over Any Other Branch of Steele Raising—Much Leas Labor Required. Poultry keeping has two chief advantage* over any other branch or line of htock raising. In the first place much lea* time is required in getting an tnooate started from the establishment of a poultry plant and n e x t tea* space ts required for raising poultry a s compared .with the amount of land used in rearing other animala. After one y e a r , time - small Income has started from poultry while if raising any other stock it woujd take two or three years t o make the start Another thing, fowls do not require an extensive ran, nut can be placed in n limited space and give good results, althongh the nana ahonld be kept very d e a n mader this condition. In keepma; poultry under these condition* it sJeo requires lea* labor on the part of the punlUf keeper. There are lota of shanks and feet with the nail bush, soap, and water. Insert the bird in tub (1) and push it down under the water several times until the plumage is wet through; make a heavy lather with the sponge and soap, and thoroughly wash the plumage with the Bponge; open the wings and sponge them in the direction of the feathers. (In fact, always wash the length oi the feather, from the quill to the tip and not across it.) Keep the bird's head out of the soapy water if possible; sponge the Boap off the bird, and remove to tub (2). Press it under the water several times, allow it to stand and drip for a few seconds, and then dip it twice in tub (3) containing the bluing water. Remove the bird from the water, bold its legs firmly and raise it up and down quickly, so that it will flap and expand its wings and tail and shake out the water. Do not use a towel to dry a white bird. Move the exhibition coop near the fire or some heat, so that the bird will dry. Lifting up the plumage of the breast and opening the feathers of the fluff while drying has a tendency to increase the apparent size of these sections. The shanks and feet of exhibition fowls must be absolutely clean and well polished. To overcome rough scales rub the legs twice daily with a cloth dipped In* kerosene, and a short time before the show wash them thoroughly. Use a good Bcouring soap, woolen cloth, and warm rainwater. Remove any old or rough scales and also the dirt between the scales. The latter can be taken out with toothpicks. Dry the shanks and apply a solution of equal parts of sweet oil and alcohoL Then warm a woolen cloth and scrape a little beeswax on it. . The warmth will melt the wax, and the shanks should then be polished with the waxed cloth. case they should have a surplus either in eggs or in poultry, there are always some neighbors who are glad to get the chance to buy them. farm* tnas eevdd keep a few fowl* m this snsaaor amfl no it successfully. too, bat stJU they 4on*t think so.

Pain is a visitor to every name and usually it comes quite unexpeete ly. Bat you are prepared for every emergency if you keep a small battle of Sloan's Liniment handy. It la the greatest pain killer ever discovered. Simply laid on the skin— no rubbing required—It drives the pain away. It U really wonderful. Mervin H. Soister, Berkeley, Cal., writes: "Last Saturday, after tramping around the Panama Exposition with wet feet, I came homo with my neck so stiff that I couldn't turn. I applied Sloan's Liniment freely and went to bed. To my surprise, next morning the stiffness had almost disappeared, four hours after the se ond application I was a s good as new." March, 1915.

The navy yard bill, which is regarded as very important by the administration, was passed by a viva voce vote. The other was put through by a vote of 173 to 0. THE BANKS OF MICHIGAN A Wonderful Poppy Field. STUDY YOUR CATALOGUES I TIMELY GARDEN HINTS *£*£ By E. VAN BENTHUYSEN. Get your catalogues early and study them. Make your selections and order early. ThlB assures the goods on time and a better selection. Be sure to Include a mixed packet of climbing nasturtiums for that corner where the sun scorches everything else. They are beautiful in coloring and are subject to only one real insect pest, the cabbage worm, and it '^£•'1' v P**c u m D B to hellebore or soapsuds. £;: ^ California poppy is another sun-lovt-*' ilW plant. Its gay foliage blends at- " IJfcptively with its golden leaves. Its only drawback fs its short life. The scarlet salvia has no peer in color. It is a brilliant plant and should be started early in the house. Cosmos requires an early start, also. It Is difficult to get this plant started early enough to bloom much before frost but the buds will continue to o^en In water for weeks. Select the chrysanthemum effects among asters. Their branching and ostrich plume effect are sure to please. There Is a world of color to select from and they are hardy and beautiful. The simple culture of pansiea makes them a delight In the garden. Include a packet of these beautiful little flowers of diverse colors in your order. Plant sweet peas as soon as the ground can be worked in the spring. Late planting brings failure. The more the flowers are plucked the better and bigger they grow. The colors are fflj&f beautiful and range from purest white Little sawdust piles at the base of trees indicate where the borer is at work. Dig him out. Go at it with a wire and knife. Potassium permanganate at the rate of a teaspoonful to a gallon of water will prolong the freshness of cut flowers. Make selections of new plants for next season's flower garden. Add as many new ones as possible, and try to make a complete change in the beds of annuals. Flats should be made now for sowing seeds and for starting cuttings. Mend the old flats and have everything in readiness. Clean seed pans. Have a supply of loam, sand and fertilizing materials at hand for early sowing and potting. Cuttings can now be made in the conservatory and greenhouse. ^ uv*. Lt to a red that Is almost black. One of the favorite specimens belong to the violet-colored family.

TO PREVENT GREEN ALGA To prevent the green alga that forms on flower pots, soak the pots in the following solution: Take three ounces of copper carbonate and make a thick paste of it with water, using a wooden pail for the purpose. Dilute five pints of strong ammonia with 20 pints of water. Add the diluted ammonia to the paste and stir thoroughly. Add water to make 50 gallons or in this proportion.

Ottawa, Ont.—A general mobilization of guards is being systematically made In Canada following fires and arrests of alleged German agents at points in western Ontario. That a concerted movement is being made throughout the province to destroy munition plants is the general belief of officials. Guards on plants and public buildings have been doubled. Several towns in western Ontario were thrown into a panic by a hurried call to arms of the hfome guards. Buglers hurried through the streets sounding the alarm, and unfounded rumors that one of the bridges had been blown up added to the excitement. At St. Catharines, theater audiences were dismissed when the men began to respond to the call. CAPTURED 1,300,000 RIFLES Number of Prisoners Held in Germany Is 1,429,171.

If there were any so pessimistic as to imagine that Canada was passing through a period of hard times the wonderful showing of this subscription should put aside all doubts of Canada's rapidly increasing prosperity. The bank clearings of Winnipeg for 1915 were a billion and a half of dollars. Think of it. Then, in addition, there were the bank clearings of the other cities throughout Western Canada. Regina, Saskatoon and Moose Jaw also show big increase in clearings. The Winnipeg statistics show that the city has done the biggest financial, commercial and industrial business in its history in 1915. A billion and a half are big clearings, representing business on a per capita basis of over $7,000 per head for every man. woman and child in the city, and has gone ahead of big manufacturing cities like Buffalo, and runs a close second to Detroit. It has shown bigger bank clearings than the middle west cities of Minneapolis and Duluth, and has exceeded Los Angeles, Seattle and other noted shipping centers. It is now side by side with the ten biggest cities in North America in amount of bank clearings. But because the war helped Canada recover quickly from a natural economic depression it does not follow that, at the end of the war. the country must Buffer a relapse, and straightway return to a state of inactivity and hard times. A Winnipeg paper, with a wellknown reputation for conservatism in economic matters says: Canada's undeveloped fields should prove a mighty factor after the war in adjusting the country's business from one period to another. The staggering figures of this year's crop, showing increases in production of 50 per cent over last year, give a slight idea of the future wealth stored in vast stretches of prairie plain yet untouched by the plow. The Northwest Grain-Dealers' Association on September 1 estimated that the wheat crop of the three Prairie Provinces would amount to 250,800,000 bushels. On November 10 that estimate was increased to 307.230,000 bushels. The Dominion government on September 13 estimated the Western wheat crop at 275,772,200 bushels, but on October 15 those figures were) . changed to 304,200,000 bushels. Monetary Returns for the Western Crop. And the amount of money which the; west is receiving for its grain has not yet been whofly appreciated. Up to the 10th of December the Canadian vest had received some 170 million dollars for 182 million bushels of its grain crop, of which 149 million bushels was wheat. The average price of No. 1 Northern wheat for September was 93¾ cents; for October 9sHsrcents, and for the first three weekfjgp;^w; November $1.03¾. On the 10th»^| December there was fully 120 mi""*' bushels of wheat to be marketed, would leave about 30 million bu for local consumption in the Provinces. Bradstreet says: 'Confidence seems to have ret in Canada; grain crops are exce^ ally large, prices pay the farmer^ a t t l the war-order lines provide wort^wfe* aid in circulating much money. Credit ' is more freely granted, and interior merchants are disposed to buy rather' liberally."—Advertisement Where Money Talke, She was doing her best to make full use of her leap-year prerogative.

There was no other weapon In his oelt, and It never occurred to me that he might possess another secreted in his jacket; nor did I realize the des perate hatred of me which gave him reckless courage. What to do with the fellow obsessed my mind; I possessed nothing to securely bind him with; I could not leave him free, nor had I any desire to take him along with me. He settled the problem him* -self. Suddenly, his arms above his head, his eyes on mine, he kicked viciously, the heavy shoe striking my wrist, sending the revolver I held -spinning into the grass a dozen feet away.

I had no grip that would hold, yet it tangled the revolver in the folds of cloth so he could not draw, and, with a snarl of baffled rage, he tore his fingers loose, and clutched at my throat with both hands. Back and forth we swayed on the very edge of the ravine, kept from plunging down into the black depths by the intervening fringe of trees, savagely contending for the mastery. That he was a trained athlete, acquainted with every wrestler's trick, I knew in a moment, yet this gave me little fear"—for this was to be a fight no wrestling game. Strong, quick, agile as the man was. I never doubted I was his match, and, as I felt strength come back into my hand, and realized that I could clench it again, I felt coldly confident Once, twice, I drove my knuckles into his exposed face, compelling him to loosen grip, and throw up his hands in protection. And then I had him; not that as devoid of skill as a boxer— he possessed tricks of defense own to me—but his was the pronal knowledge of the West Point , while I had graduated from the h school of the camp; where he trained for points, for fancy mill- T had fought to win against desperate opponents.

If less, grotesque shadow. Blood streamed from my lacerated hand, and I bound up the wound in a neckerchief stripped from around my throat, hardly conscious of the pain, my breath steadying, my muscles growing tense. Then I bent down, and straightened the man out upturning his face to the moon. He was not dead—there was a beat to his pulse; but the gash on bis head was an ugly one; he would have a scar there while he lived. He lay like a dead man, his face ghastly, his thin, lips drawn back from his teeth, and seemingly breathless. But for that faint, barely perceptible throb of the pulse. 1 would have thought him killed. And now what? Kelly, and his followers, would not be gone long exploring the depths of the ravine—an hour at moBt would take them over every inch of i t We must have more of a start than that There were troops yonder. Fox would never worry over the disappearance of Raymond, but Moran might; and he was in command. There was a squad of horsemen out there now. beyond the corner of the church, and riding southward— they might be in search of the missing lieutenant and his three troopers. I dare not leave the fellow where he was to recover consciousness, and give an alarm, or be discovered by others. There were two things possible to do—to roll the body Into the ravine, or bear it with me. The first would be murder; the second a tax upon my physical strength which I might not withstand. Yet there was no other way, but to try the experiment. I tossed the discarded revolver Into the bushes, and struggled with the limp body ua£U, I was able to rise to my feet v&fy ja$ jttcpnscious man dangling a e j ^ a # « M t er. He was of good gsftftae'i vAayt, but I succeeded in iihigjwfreysne few yards necessary with the harden, and the* hoisted him across the saddle, head and heels dangling. The horse snort ed and circled to get away, frightened at his unusual burden, but I soothed the animal, and finally he sniffed at the man's legs, and stood still. and I lifted his head, supporting tt on my shoulder as we topped the rise. The horse shied. I caught glimpse of a shadow flitting across an open space. "Noreen!" MU it really you? I could not tell— the horse; the something across the saddle." She came forward with a swift spring, not satisfied until her band actually touched me. **Oh, 1 am so glad—you are not even h u r t r 'Not seriously; battered up a bit— Nichols?" "Yes, be Is here; there beside the tree. Tell me what has happened! What have you here? Why It is.a man," she shrank back, "a—a dead man!" "No, not dead," I hastened to explain, unbuckling the belt and lowering the still limp body to the {ground "Here, parson, don't let the horse stray. We cannot waste many minutes here; there are cavalrymen scouting the edge of the ravine yonder, and they may come as far as this. That is why I brought the fellow along—to keep him from being found. Do you recognize the face, Noreen?" It was dark and shadowy where we were and she waa compelled to bend low to distinguish the features. Her lips gave a startled, half-suppressed cry: "Why It is Lieutenant Raymond! You—you fought together? How did he come here?" "I think he suspected we might manage to escape from the church. He was more anxious to capture me than he was to fight evidently, for 1 caught no glimpse of his face during the melee. But he. and three troopers, were hidden at the edge of the woods watching where the trail comes up from the ravine." "Yes," breathlessly, "we saw them come across, just after the torches began to flare up inside the church. Then later another man rode along there." "That was Kelly; he brought word that we had got away. I was wltbia ten feet of them when they met The lieutenant swore at the news, and sent the four men down the trail to search —he offered one hundred dollars for me, dead or alive." She arose to her feet, but the darkness prevented my seeing the expression on her face. "He did! This man?" she exclaimed, the horror of the thought visible in the tone. "Why, what is It to him? I do not understand why be should exhibit such bitterness—he was CHAPTER XXIX. The Trail to Covington. As I gripped the horse's rein and turned him slowly around I beard a single shot fired in the gorge below, the sound echoing among the rocks and a spark of fire gleamed through the darkness. It was far enough away to give me little concern, yet the report must have been beard by the cav airy squad now well out in the open,, for they wheeled their horses and rode straight toward the ravine. Their course would bring them higher up, just to the rear of the church^ yet, with suspicions once aroused, 'twas likely they would patrol the banks, seeking for some passage below, Confident the distance between us was sufficient to hide my movements so long as I kept well back in the shadow of the trees. I led the horse forward, advancing as rapidly as I dared to travel, using one band to steady Raymond's body swaying across the saddle. It must have been a quarter of a mile, or more, ay where the forest spread out from the hank into a dark tangle of trees, extending half across the ridge. The winding of the ravine took me out of sight of the body of horsemen above, yet I knew they had galloped to the edge of the gorge, and were calling to whoever was below. I could hear the shouts, without catching the words, and even Imagined I distinguished a faint cry in return. By slipping the lieutenant's belt over the saddle horn, thus preventing his limp body from sliding off, I urged the animal to a sharp trot What was before ns in those dark woods was all conjecture—bat 1 possessed Infinite confidence in Noreen, The very silence, coupled with the fact that no sign of the two fugitives had. been met with along the way, convinced ma that they had safely attained the readesvoaa, and were aov there, anxiously awaiting my arrival.

I stole a look upward at the lady in the saddle, but did not venture to address tier She sat erect her face slightly averted. but her thoughts appeared to be elsewhere, and 1 plodded on, my heart grown heavy. Beyond doubt she realized now what the end was to be. In the rush and excitement of the past few days, her natural desire to save me from the death of a spy. she had found no time for thought, for consideration. She had merely obeyed the swift impulse of the moment.

She was evidently ashamed, regretful, unhappy; If ever she bad cared for me, even in ordinary friendship, that feeling had changed into dislike—probably into actual hatred. I seemed to feel the change; to .comprehend the growing horror with which she confronted the future.

I would arrange to drop out of her life as suddenly as I bad come into it But the impetuous words died unuttered on my pushed on through word exchanged between us, slipping and sliding along the rocky trail, following Nichols down into a black valley, and then up again to a steep, narrow ridge. All about us was the night and the silence. Then the dawn broke, the black gloom fading into gray, the clouds of fog in the deep valley below us rising slowly until the rays of the rising sun lifted them to the mountain tops, reddening the mist Into grotesque beauty, and revealing the green glades beneath. It was a wild, desolate scene, and we paused on the edge of what seemed a sheer precipice to gaze. Even Nichols stopped, and looked down, pointing to the ridge of rock along which the barely perceptible trail ran. "You'll hav' ter pick yer way mighty careful 'long thar," be said slowly.

How far away is Covington ?" " 'Bout, twenty mile—in the next valley beyond them hills." He disappeared around a sharp ledge, and Noreen and I were alone-' alone, it seemed to me, in ail the world. I dare not even look at her, as I helped her out of the saddle. Tired from the long hours of riding along the rough trail, she staggered slightly on her feet, and her hands clasped my arm. Our eyes met and !x> the depths of hers was the mist of tears. "Tom." she said earnestly, her voice faltering. "I cannot stand this any longer. I—I must know—what—what I am to yont** "To me!"

Young Sows Should Not Be Brsd Before Eight Months of Ags. The age at which a young sow is first bred will depend upon her development, nut it is very seldom that it la advisable to breed her before she is eight months old. Many good breeders prefer not to breed sows before they are ten or even twelve months old, and if they are intended for show purposes it is scarcely advisable to breed them earlier.

Garden-—Easy to Grow and A WORD ABOUT PEONIES Peonies should be planted in the autumn early if they are to do well the first year, October being the best time for the work. They are not too particular as to soil; but in every case this should be well dug to the depth of 18 inches, enriching it with manure, which should not, however, be allowed to come in contact with the root in planting, but rather be mixed with the top soiL at the distance of a few inches from the plant Peonies are propagated both by seed and by division; the former plan, however, Is lengthy and troublesome, as the majority of a batch of hybrids will be found worthless, and a large plot of ground is necessary as a place of trial They can only be obtained true to name by division of the roots; but this should not be attempted until the plant has been in one place for two or three years, as they do much better when undisturbed, when it will mature fine shoots, which year by year increase in size until the peonies become one of the grandest sights in the garden. During a drought in summer (particularly when the plant is young) an occasional soaking with water will benefit the peony, and every spring (in March) a mulch of rich soil or hotbed material should be laid over its roots. When peonies are grown in a sep arate bed an edging of daffodils will be effective with the crimson shoots of the peonies In April. The foliage of many of these plants turns in autumn to various shades of purple, bronze and crimson, when the plants again.become decorative; and It is a mistake to ctft off the foliage of the peony directly after flowering, as It is necessary to the plant while maturing its growth for next season and makes a mass of not undecoratlve green. - Tall lilies can be grown between the peonies in a border, choosing the hardiest varieties for a cold situation. These will make their way between the foliage of the peonies and look very handsome after the peonies cease to bloom. Other suitable plants for massing with peonies are the tall blue and white delphiniums. Campanula perslclfolia (in blue or white), pyrethrums, aqullegias, etc., all of which are perennials. Carnations are attractive massed with peonies, and will do well with the same cultivation as the peonies. For a bouquet for the home, these splendid flowers are unique when cut with long stems and arrange in a bowl with plenty of their own foliage to set them off. «*> *P ^;^WP^ »Hm &*"N '^ V ^ 7*H * i, ;/. $& y &§Si ^ N ^ * * ^ • P ^ » « » * » W H ( » R « » * P « :'<&*• • * !

Then she should dress her hair to hide any unattractive angles or features and to accentuate the well-formed and attractive features. To Borne the hair is more becoming if the greater part of the forehead shows. To others the hair drawn down so as to "cut" the forehead proves more becoming. If the ears are not beautifully shaped the hair should be brought over them by all means. If covering the entire ear forms an angle that is not becoming to the face, the lobe of the ear should be allowed to show. The eyes are particularly affected by the manner of combing the hair. Some eyea, especially the almondshaped, are most beautiful when the hair comes over the forehead, almost touching the eyebrows. Other eyes appear larger and give forth more brilliancy if the hair is drawn wen" away. Parting the hair in the center or on the aide also has great Influence on the eyea. And the nose! That is placed la such a variety of positions and ia Itself of so many shapes and aiaes that there seems no set rule to go by. The principal thing to avoid ia accentuating the length of a large nose and the amalmeaa of a small nose.

If this is done the cow may yield even more milk from the rear quarters and develop a funnel shaped udder. Drawing milk from a fore quarter on one side and from a rear quarter on the other side is practiced by some milkers. This may be all right if the quarters are begun alternately. All the milk that is let down into the teat should be drawn out with each pressure of the hand. If this is not done it may develop a hard milking cow.

She ls giving little or no milk, aud ail she eats yields no returns. At this time, especially if the "fodder'' is getting low, is when some men begin to economize; they reason that the cow is glting no milk, therefore she needs but little to eat aud that little may be straw or other coarse food while the b'tiild 1K» hch1 ! cow that Is milking will have all the the anus or \ more nutritious foods. This last idea 1B all right; feed the heavy milker all •he can eat at a profit and of the best foods you can get but do not slight the dry cow. Her hard work is about to begin and when It does it begins in earnest. She is preparing to do her one most profitable bit of work if she be a pure bred cow, and she needs the best of care instead of the poorest It Is a great drain on the system to reproduce, and tho body requires nutritious foods.

HIS CAREER ENDED NOW BY DEATH AT EL PAZO •"TBew ~York—An explosion, which naval officers so far are unable to explain, completely wrecked the interior of the United States submarine B-3 :_vnhtte she was being repaired In dry- 1 # ^ H B in the Brooklyn navy yard, in- •tastly Wiling one enlisted man and three ym*JspV>rkmen, and injuring at least 11 others at work in the submarine so severely that some of them are expected to die. * In the opinion of naval surgeons and of enlisted men, including members of the crews of other submarines, a number of the injured may die because of the effects of the poisonous gases upon the lungs, not to mention the severity of ,the bodily injuries inflicted. The E-2 was the only submarine in the navy equipped with Edison bat* teries, for which the thief merit claimed is that they do not give off chlorine gas/ Also the E-2 had no gasoline aboard, aa her motive power Is generated by an oil-burning engine. The submarine had been in dry dock since December 30 last. Consequently she was dry outside and inside. Sea water, which when an undersea boat is submerged, might help in the formation of gases in submarines equipped with lead batteries, could not enter into the accident. The commander of the E-2, Lieutenant Charles M. Cooke, Jr., and about 30 members of the crew and yard workmen were aboard the submarine when the explosion occurred. Lieutenant Cooke was merely jolted about a bit and scratched slightly. At the time of the explosion members of the crew and workmen were installing a more effective ventilating system around the Edison batteries. The only theory as to the cause of the explosion advanced was that, although the batteries are said to give off no appreciable quantity of chlorine gas, it is possible that a sufficient amount of hydrogen had been liberated which, when a ventilating duct running from the battery was opened, mixed with the surrounding air and exploded.

At Richland she attended school where Senator Burrows was a teacher, and shortly after the elose of the civil war they were married. During all her husband's congressional career she lived in Washington, and for many years was a prominent figure in the society of the national capital She was a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution and other patriotic societies, and was at one time a national officer in the first-named.

Pittstcn,- Pa.—Sheriff George F. busB, of this city, sheriff of Luzarne county, with 12 members of the state constabulary, went to Dupont, near here, to see that Rev. Francis Kurkowski, now pastor of the Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, was not molested in the holding of services. Five hundred men and women friends of Fr. Edward Guzwa, deposed pastor, filled the little church yard when the officers arrived. The sheriff asked the crowd to make way for their new pastor. As he spoke, the church bell tolled. It was the signal. In a second, the mob charged the sheriff and troopers. Captain Leon Pitcher, of the constabulary, hit over the head with a club, dropped unconscious. The troopers brought their guns and riot-sticks into action. Stones, clubs and bullets filled the air. Ross Hum* er, a trooper, was struck with a club and suffered a fractured skull. Corporal Albert Carlson's shoulder was broken. Other troopers had their teeth knocked out. None escaped receiving some minor injury. Sheriff Bush telephoned for reinforcements. Eighteen troopers hustled from the barracks of troop B at Wyoming. When the fresh force arrived the battle was renewed, the troopers having the upperhand. They beat off the women, who threw red pepper and dry mustard in the officers' eyes, and made wholesale arrests of the participators, 73 being corralled in the church basement. "Later they were sent to the county jail at Wilkes- Barre. Four rioters were taken to Plttston hospital Buffering from bullet wounds. One, believed to be George Greick, died soon after admittance. He was shot in the thigh and abdomen. Captain Pitcher and Trooper Humer are at the hospital. Humer is not expected to live. Pitcher's condition is serious.

One | ^ ; < x t ^ e kneeling figures rose slowly un- r"^^: - :^l Ws eyes were even with the window sill man from the uniform he wore. This might account for the display of force with which they invested the church before demanding admission. No doubt the heavy log walls looked formidable and mysterious in themoonilght. But, if they really suspected a garrison within, why should their line be thus extended, within-easy musket shot of the windows? The conclusion I arrived at was that. Fox made this open display of force in the hope of avoiding bloodshed. He desired to capture instead ;^f>.

I will go." I stepped across the platform, hold' iag her arm. "Gold, the lady will watch the .prisoner; you join the others at the door."

Then this noise ceased, as the head of the cavalry column came up to where Cowan and his men waited. I could barely make out the murmur of voices In explanation, muffled by the sound of approaching wheels, signifying the slower advance of the guarded wagons. I heard no orders given, yet the moonlight revealed more numerous figures in the line stretching across the open space. "Tbar's sojers out thar now, sir/' whispered the man next the window, fingering his gun nervously, "a slew of 'em. Do yer know how many they got?" "Only to guess at it—a couple of hundred altogether. I should sayenough to make it interesting." leaned forward, attracted by the " of two figures standing together tall gleam of the moon—Cowan ymond. So they were to-com* the rear attack, while Fox and infantryman remained out in protect Noreen from danger. If we were alone within the church, escape was clearly impossible, and the probability strong that no resistance would be attempted. The silence, the long wait got upon my nerves. I could see. little, and the few sounds reaching my ears conveyed no information of value. What were those fellows doing? What could cause their delay? The soldier behind me was humming softly; a foot scraped on the floor to the right; I caught the soft swish of Noreen's skirt as she changed position; the moonbeams glimmered on a lifted rifle barrel, there was all about a suppressed sound of breathing. Good Lord! would they never move! What could they possibly be doing out there? A half dozen blows rang sharp on the wood of the outer door. Not a sound answered from within, although I could feel the men straighten up and send* the sharp intake of breath, j Again the blows crashed, as if struck by the butt of a musket "Open up in there!" roared a voice, so muffled as to have no familiar £#U : ^ > £•< Kr*!K A - ' _ IB- > * * . . * ' « • . . the front "Rave you counted the fellows out there r I asked.

"Captain Fox," broke in Harwood bhjntly, bis voice nervously sharp, "1 command Troop C, Third Kentucky cavalry. This is no bluff, sir. 1 give you fifteen minutes to withdraw your men; at the expiration of that time we open fire." The surprise, the shock of this unexpected development and threat was plainly evident I heard Fox step back from the door and speak earnestly to someone; Moran swore savagely. "What force have you?" he roared, the insane question causing Harwood to laugh outright, "Come and find out," he answered mockingly. "Better go back to the other end now, sergeant" he added in lower voice, and gripped my hand. "The ball Is about to open. Where is my lady cousin?" "1 put her on guard over the prisoner. She will be out of range there, and have something to do." "And gives you another fighting man—I see. Queer duck, that preacher— a bit of a knave, to my notion, and one of the finest liars I have ever heard; he'll bear watching. Ah! our friend the major has come to his senses—look yonder! They are moving back out of range." "Ay! and concentrating a heavier body of men this way." "Of course; the first assault will be from the front Tell Wharton to spare me two or three more men, and send a couple from your end. They may make a rush from all directions, but the real fight will be here; they are going to try us out, that is certain." I walked back to my station. The line of men threatening this end of the building had been drawn aside, out of direct rifle range, and seemed to be grouped opposite each corner, and were so closely bunched together as to make any estimate of their numbers ^impossible. They were only shapeless shadows, with moonlight gleaming from their weapons, and an occasional voice breaking the ominous silence. There remained nothing to do but await their action, ready for whatever might occur. I passed along the wall from man to man, assuriug myself each was at his station, with loaded weapon,, and well-filled cartridge belt "The fight will begin In front," I whispered, unable to distinguish faces, "and no firing here until I give the word." In the darker corner where the prisoner sat motionless against the log wall, my eyes could distinguish nothing. "Noreen." "Yes," and she stood up. "Couldn't you see me?" "Not the faintest shadow. 1—I wanted to thank you tor the choice you made." "You mean my coming with you? You are glad I did?" "Yes, very glad," I said earnestly, "for you are Just as safe here, and— and I would rather have you near me. This may prove a desperate struggle; we are terribly outnumbered—and— and, well, you know, you—you trusted yourself to me—you are under my protection." There was no answer; perhaps 1 had said too much. Suddenly a volley roared out startling In the stillness— a shout of command—the sharp bark of carbines—then, a grim, threatening yelp of voices. One leap brought me to the window, with, gun barrel thrust forward across the silt The two black shadows were breaking up in1 headlong rush toward the door at the south corner. I saw figures, not faces, a gleaming of poised weapons, a huddle of leaping bodies. "Fire!" I roared, my voice rising; above the hideous din. "Give ft to them!" and pulled trigger. I have no dear knowledge of what followed—it was all so quickly over with; a mere mad moment crowded Sth vague glimpses, vaniahing and snging la the lurid light of the guns. The whole interior of the church biased and echoed, the smoke choking us with its fumes, the noise stunning our ears. I heard the choc of bullets flatteatn* against the legs, smothered oaths, the crash of ah overturned beech, a scream as shrill as a ween* aa> that made my heart leas, and Harwood's voice oelBng ovt the same word agate aad ssjata. Bsjt although I heard ad this, I barely knew n, my Eheagt* *tt« tSi frOSt Om devils we had to MB er drtve hack. PS4M ft! ment motionless, the ground dotted with the dead; then tried again. There was a roar of musketry, the crack of rifles; bullets chugged Into the logs, and came crashing through the windows. Glass showered upon us, and the man next me went over like a log; someone struck me across the face with a bloody hand, and a shot splintered the stock of my gun, numbing my arm to the shoulder. I gripped another weapon out of the stiffening fingers of the man on the floor, firing again blindly into the smoke cloud. For an Instant I could see nothing but that white vapor tinged with red and yellow flame; then some breath of air Bwept it aside, and the attackers were drifting back, running and stumbling. "Stop firing!" I cried, "they've had enough. Pass the word to those men at the door." The fight at the front held longer, yet it was scarcely five minutes when, the last gun cracked, and a strange silence took the place of that hideous uproar. For an Instant not ev«n a cry from the wounded broke the stillness, the men leaning out of the windows watching the disorganized retreat Then someone gave an exultant yell, and voice after voice caught it up, the old church echoing to the wild battle cry of the South. "Steady, men. steady!" shouted Harwood from the door of the vestibule, his voice cleaving the din like the blade of a knife. "This is only the first act. Load!" The light of the moon streamed in through the south windows, revealing the overturned benches, the moving figures along the walls, the smoke cloud drifting upward to the rafters. The lieutenant picked his way down the narrow aisle. He was bareheaded and coatless, and even in that dim light I could perceive a dark Btain. like oozing blood, on the front of his shirt. "You are wounded?" I exclaimed. "Nothing to worry over," he replied easily, his eyes laughing, "a mere touch in the shoulder, which, however, has put my left arm out of commission. Ah! fair cousin!" and he held up his hand in sudden greeting. "We who are about to die salute you." "Do not say that," she pleaded. "Surely the victory Is ours." "Ay! we win the first round, but it has cost heavily. I doubt if we have such luck again. What loss have you, Wyatt?" "Two wounded and one killed," I answered soberly. "We had Cowan's guerrillas to meet out there." "Yes, I know; the infantrymen stormed the front and the troopers peppered the side windows. Wharton has three down, while they got five of my lads. The front doors are fairly riddled. They'll consolidate next time, trust to the weight of numbers, and break through. They respect us now, but we haven't licked the fight out of them by a long chalk. I'm going to take three of your men." He whispered a word to her, some good-natured pleasantry, I thought, as he bowed over her hand as though they parted in a gay parlor; then turned laughing away, and picked his passage down the aisle, a slender, debonair figure, whistling a gay camp tune. I stared after him, scarcely able to comprehend such gay-spirited recklessness, when he stopped suddenly, and faced about. "Do what you can for your wounded, Wyatt," he called back, bis voice instantly serious, "and keep my fair cousin out of the ruck." Several figures fell in behind him as he went forward—the men he had asked for from Wharton and O'Hare— all disappearing within the blackness of the vestibule. Leaving; one man alone posted at each opening, I had the others of my small company bear the two wounded men to the farther corner, making them as comfortable as possible. The dead man was laid out on one of the benches, and then the three selected for that duty were sent te Join the lieutenant This depletion of force left me a window to defend alone against the second attack, the opening to the left of the pulpit uext to the corner In which lay the wounded men and the prisoner. As I crossed the platform and took my place, Noreen arose from beside one of the bodies and bar hands grasped my arm. '"The soldier who was shot In the eheftt," she said, her voice trembling*. "he—he tried to tell me something. 1 tore say skirt and boned It up, but there was no water. 1—1 wish he wouSdst groan so."

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eating too much meat says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them like you relieve your bowels; removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is had jpau have rheumatic twinges.

The public is invited to sympathize with a quiet and retiring citizen who occupied a seat near the door of a crowded street car, when a masterful woman entered. Having a newspaper behind which to hide, he was fixed and subjugated by her glittering eye. He rose and offered his place to her. Seating herself—without thanking him—she exclaimed in tones that reached to the farthest end of the car: "What do you want to stand up there for? Come here and sit on my lap." "Madam," gasped the man, as his face became scarlet, "I fear I am not deserving of such an honor." "What do you mean?" shrieked the woman.

If the wbeatflelds are burned the parasite preying on the- fly will be killed. There is no danger of increasing the injury from the Hessian fly by spreading straw as a top dressinf upon the field. The top dressing of stiaaw upon the field does not furnish wmter protection to the fly. Wheat which has been infested with the jolntworm and the greater wheat strawworm in large numbers should not be spread^en the field. These insects make their presence known by the large number of white heads in the field. If there was a large camber of white heads of wheat in your field do not spread straw on the field. This infested straw, however, may be used as a top dressing on corn ground If the straw be worked into the wound early in the spring. The best method of controlling the 1 Hessian fly is to prevent the growth of volunteer wheat in summer and fall and to delay the seeding <>f the wheat until most of the flies have deposited their egg*. The best method of handling wheat ground Is to disk the stubble as quickly as possible after harvest and to plow the ground deep after the volunteer wheat starts. JJUJL-V: Liquid Manure. liquid manure is a stimulant and not a substitute for manure of a more solid character, it Is taken up by straw or other bedding materiai Solid manure on heavy soils should be applied liberally in the autumn and turned under. Liquid manure is beneficial when applied while the plants are making growth or in early stages of flowering or fruiting. Flowering plants receive the greatest benefit from liquid manure before the buds show color, vegetables whsn'aboul half grownt^Wtege^^nts wlieiJ new growth has become well advanced and fruit trees when the fruit is half developed. Plants that are to receive treatment with liquid manure should first receive an application of pure water. Liquid manure is prepared from the excrement of horses, cows, sheep, pigeons or chickens or from commercial fertilisers. The first two are generally used. For use in the parden a supply of this useful liquid can be bad by arranging a bnrrcl as shown in the illustration. The barrel is placed on a platform or table high enough to permit a pail or watering can to be set under the spigot A metal pall is pierced on the side and bottom, and the fertilizer placed In the pail, which is suspended In the barrel with rope or wire, and the barrel Is then filled with water. A bag can be used in place of the pail and: will permit of stirring somewhat by turning the bag and raising and lowering it until the water has extracted the fertilizer material, when it wUl be ready for use, first diluting the liquid with water until it is of the color of weak tea. Chicken and pigeon manure is very strong, and only a peek should be used to th1rty»two gallons of water. Always apply liquid manure directly to the root3« of the plants, being careful not to wet the foliage or flowers. Pot plants should not be treated often- •t than once A week. t "How are m getting on wttfc yo*r «otfr 'TastttatistogeteC N' SIMPLE, WHOLESOME RECIPES.
