A saloon, keeper openly threatened to ruin her family financially. Nothing was too mean for him to say or do. One day there was a shooting scrape in his saloon. Standing by a pool of blood, the saloonkeeper with scared white face said, "Send for Mrs. Smith." He did not ask for the services of timid Deacon Pray well, who was afraid to open his mouth on the liquor question, nor did he desire the presence of Minister Softly, who was lukewarm on the subject, but he wanted the brave* little woman who had fought his business year in and year out. Mrs. Smith came. She took the injured man's bead in her lap, and there, with kegs and bottles all around her, and with blood smearing her dress, she lifted her voice in prayer. M. E.

The present year will add another proof that farming in Western Canada, when carried on with the same energy and system devoted to other lines of business, will bring about results fully as satisfactory. Mixed farming a* a tocsin has been sounded for a number of years, and today it is being adopted pretty generally throughout the Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. There are those who have made no greater success of it than they did when they pursued grain growing alone, but where one has failed to accomplish whafr he had hoped to do, dozens have scored success. Prom Sedgewick, Alberta, we hear of B. L. Deputy, for past twelve years manager for FVye & Sons, packers, Seattle, who during 1914 were the largest buyers of hogs on Alberta markets. He is taking up active work on his 1,200-acre farm near Sedgewick. Although he was one of the highest paid salaried officials on the Pacific Coast, his frequent visit* and personal knowledge of farming conditions in Western Canada convinced him there are greater opportunities in farming Alberta land than in commercial life, with greater assurance of ultimate independence and prospects of home-making under the most desirable conditions. Thomas McKay, a farmer near Hardisty, Alberta, has this to say about the eountry: "I came to Hardisty from Osage City, Kansas, nine years ago and took up a homestead here. This is a good district for the farmer who wishes to raise grain exclusively, and as a mixed farming country it cannot be beaten anywhere In the world to my knowledge. "I had ten cattle, which ranged outside all last winter, and this spring they were fat enough for the market, this without being fed but one night during the entire winter; they were fine fat cattle and looked beautiful. I raised some winter wheat here which weighed sixty-seven and a half pounds to the bushel, government weight, and which I shipped to Calgary. The miller who bought it said that it was the best wheat that had ever gone into Calgary. Wheat in this district yields as high as forty bushels to the acre, oats average sixty bushels. Alfalfa does well here. "All in all I think the farmers are very well satisfied with the country, and the farmer who farms his land intelligently is sure to make a success. The climate here is the best I have ever lived in, the summers are delightful and the winters are mild. There has never been a blizzard during the nine years I have lived here nor any cyclones or wind storms." A settler in the neighborhood of Oleichen, Alberta, spent $2,000 in improving his .quarter section, has 125 acres ready for crop, keeps 70 head of stock, believes in mixed farming, keeps two hired men, one all year, the other in summer only. He milks 12 to IS cows, and receives an average monthly cream cheque of $110. Last June he sold $1,200 worth of hogs and In November two more carloads, besides supplying his own requirements, and is not only making money but building up a good home amid desirable surroundings. This is'an example of the possibilities open to the Industrious in the Gleichen district. It is stated in the last three months $38,000,000 of American capital has bean invested in Canada, showing that United States financial men are satisfied of the solidity of Canadian institutions. Western Canada has been a heavy borrower and Western Canada's great resource is agriculture. U. 8. financiers must be convinced that agriculture in Western Canada is sure and profitable or they would not be ready to invest so many millions in the country.—Advertisement. « GERMAN REPLY TO AMERICAN NOTE ON LUSITANIA Full Text of Imperial Governments Communication to United States CLAIM MADE THAT LINER WAS FIGHTING VESSEL Final Decision On Wilson's Demands Is Withheld Until Consideration Is Given to Alleged Facts Regarding Status of Sunken Ship.

Berlin, May 31—The following is the text of the German note, sent In reply to the United States protest against the sinking of the Lusitania and attacks on American steamers: "The undersigned has the honor to submit to Ambassador Gerard the following answer to the communication of May 15 regarding the injury to American interests through German submarine warfare: "The imperial government has subjected the communication of the American government to a thorough investigation. It entertains also a keen wish to co-operate in a frank and friendly way in clearing up a possible misunderstanding which may have arisen in the relations between the two governments through the events mentioned by the American government. "Regarding, firstly, the cases of the American steamers Cushlng and Gulflight. The American embassy has already been informed that the German government has no intention of submitting neutral ships in the war zone, which are guilty of no hostile acts, to attacks by a submarine or submarines or aviators. On the contrary, the German forces have repeatedly been instructed most specifically to avoid attacks on such ships. "If neutral ships in recent months have suffered through the German submarine warfare owing to mistakes in identification, it is a question only of quite Isolated and exceptional cases which can be attributed to the British government's abuse of flags, together with the suspicious or culpable behavior of the masters of the ships. • Has Expressed Regret. "The German government, in all cases where it has been shown by its investigations that a neutral ship, not itself at fault, was damaged by German submarine or aviators, has expressed regret over the unfortunate accident, and, if justified by conditions, has offered indemnification. "The cases of the Cushing and the Gulflight will be treated on the same principles. An investigation of both cases is in progress, the result of which will presently be communicated to the embassy. The investigation can, if necessary, be supplemented by an international call on the international commission of inquiry as provided by Article III. of The Hague agreement of October 18, 1907. "When sinking the British steamer Falaba, the commander of the German submarine had the intention of allowing the passengers a full opportunity for escape. Only when they did not obey the order to heave-to, but fled and summoned help by rocket signals, did the German commander order the crew and passengers by signals and megaphone to leave the ship within 10 minutes. We actually allowed them 23 minutes' time, and fired the torpedo only when suspicions craft were hastening to the assistance of the Falaba. "Regarding the loss of life by the sinking of the British passenger steamer Lusitania, the German government has already expressed to the neutral governments concerned its keen regret that citisens of their states lost their lives. Escaped U. ft. Attention. "On this occasion, the Imperial government, however, cannot eecape the impression that certain Important facta having a direct bearing on the sinking of the Loaftanla may have escaped the attention of Use government. "lathe interest of a clear aad plete understanding, which Is the s i n of both governments, the ft to ©onvtnee itself that the tafotv to both the facts ef Use ease » flats aad la of the Vss>i man. The imperial government allows itself in this connection to point out that the Lusitania was one of the largest and fastest British merchant ships, built with government funds as an auxiliary cruiser and carried expressly as such in the 'navy list' issued by the British admiralty. "It is further known to the imperial government, from trustworthy reports from its agents and neutral passengers, that, for a considerable time, practically all the more valuable British merchantmen have been equipped with cannon and ammunition and other weapons, and manned with persons who have been specially trained in serving guns. The Lusitania, too, according to information received here, had cannon aboard, which v/ere moi' "ted and concealed below decks. Rammed Submarines. "The imperial government, further, has the honor to direct the particular attention of the American government to the fact that the British admiralty, in a confidential instruction issued in February, 1915, recommended its merchantile shipping not only to seek protection under neutral flags and distinguishing marks, but also, while thus disguised, to attack German submarines by ramming. As a special incitation to merchantmen to destroy submarines, the British government also offered high prizes and has already paid such rewards. "The imperial government, in view of the facts indubitably known to it, is unable to regard British merchantmen in the zone of naval operations specified by the admiralty staff of the German navy as 'undefended.' German commanders consequently are no longer able to observe the customary regulations of the prize law, which they before always followed. "Finally the imperial government must point out particularly that the Lusitania on its last trip, as on earlier occasions, carried Canadian troops and * war material, including no less than 5,400 cases of ammunition in- \ tended for the destruction of the; brave German soldiers who are ful- i filling their duty with self-sacrifice j and devotion In the fatherland's ser-; vice. j "The German government believes | that it was acting in justified self- j defense in seeking with all the means of warfare at its disposition to protect the lives of its soldiers by destroying ammunition intended for the enemy. Company Aware. "The British shipping company must have been aware of the danger to which the passenger * aboard the Lusitania were exposed under these conditions. The company in embarking them, notwithstanding this attempted deliberately to use the lives of American citizens as protection for the ammunition aboard, and acted against the clear provisions of the American law, which expressly prohibits the forwarding of passengers on Bhips carrying ammunition and provides a penalty therefor. The company, therefore, is wantonly guilty of the death of so many passengers. "There can be no doubt, according to the definite report of the submarine's commander, which is further confirmed by all other information, that the quick sinking of the Lusitania is primarily attributable to the explosion of the ammunition shipment caused by a torpedo. The Lusitania's passengers would otherwise, in all human probability, have been saved. "The imperial government considers the above-mentioned facts important enough to recommend them to the attentive examination of the American government. "The imperial government, while withholding its final decision on the demands advanced In connection with the sinking of the Lusitania, until receipt of an answer from the American government, feels impelled, in conclusion, to recall here and now that it took cognizance with satisfaction of the mediatory proposals submitted by the United States government to Berlin and London as a basis for a modus vivendi for conducting the maritime warfare between Germany and Great Britain. The imperial government by Its readiness to enter on a discussion of these proposals then demonstrated its good intentions in ample fashion The realization of these proposals was defeated, as la known, by the declinatory attitude of the British government m "The undersigned takes occasion. etc. (Signed) "JAGOW."

DE PALMA WINS GREAT RACE Indianapolis Gasoline Classic 8et» New Record for Automobile 8 peed. Indianapolis, Ind.—Ralph De Palma Monday drove his Mercede car 500 miles faster than any vehicle of human construction ever had traveled the Bame distance before, and by so doing won the fifth Indianapolis motor speedway derby, the gasoline classic of the age. He had to do it too, for Darius Resta, at the wheel of a Peugeot, pressed him hard from first to last and at the finish was less than four minutes behind the winner. De Palma's time was S hours 33 minutes 55.50 seconds, and average speed of 89.84 miles an hour for the whole distance. Resta finished in 5 hours 37 minutes 34.95 seconds. The- best previous record was 6 hours 3 minutes 46.9 seconds made by Rene Thomas in 1914. Mean Thing. Patience—I don't think Will is at all observing. Patrice—You don't? "No, I don't" "Well, I do. Why, he said the other night you had twice as much color on one cheek as on the other." Genuine Heroism. The characteristic of genuine heroism is its persistency. All men have wandering impulses, fits and starts of generosity. But when you have resolved to be great, abide by yourself, and do not weakly try to reconcile yourself with the world. The heroic cannot be the common, nor the common the heroic. If you would serve your brother, because it is fit for you to serve him, do not take back your words when you find that prudent people do not commend you. Be true to your own act, and congratulate yourself if you have done something strange and extraordinary, and broken the monotony of a decorous age.

"Ot coarse. They've been engaged nearly a year, but he's been abroad until quite lately. He is rather close about bis own affairs, and never talks about his travels and adventures, although one day Mr. Leithcourt declared that his hairbreadth escapes would make a most exciting book If ever written," "Leithcourt and he are evidently most intimate friends." "Oh, quite inseparable !" she laughed. "And the other man who is always with them is that short, stout, red-faced old fellow standing over there with the lady In pale blue, Sir TJghtred Gardner. Mr. Woodroffe has nicknamed him 'Sir Putrid.' And we both laughed./ "Of course, don't say I said so," she whispered. 'They don't call him that to his face, but it's so easy to make a mistake in his name when he's not within hearing. We women don't care for him, so the nickname just fits." And she gossiped on, telling me much that I desired to know regarding the new tenant of Rannoch and his friends, and more especially of that man who had first introduced himself to me in the consulate at Leghorn. Half an hour later my uncle's carriage was announced, and I left with the distinct impression that there was some deep mystery surrounding the Leithcourts. Whatever the reason, I had become filled with grave apprehensions. The mystery grew deeper day by day, and was inexplicable. During the week that followed I sought to learn all I could regarding the new people at the castle. "They are taken up everywhere, declared my aunt when I questioned her. "Of course, we knew very little of them, except that they had a shoot np near Fort William two yean ago, and that they have a town house in Green street They are evidently rather smart folks. Don't you think go?" "Judging from their house party, yea," I responded, T h e y are about as gay a crowd aa one could And north of Carlisle Jut at present" "Exaxetly. There are some wellknown people among them, too," said my aunt T r e asked them over tomorrow afternoon, and they've "AJlow me to offer my best congratulations. When you introduced me to Mr. Woodroffe the oth"er day I had no idea that he was to be your husband." She glanced at me quickly, and I saw in her dark eyes a look of suspicion. Then she flushed slightly, and laughing uneasily said, in a blank, hard voice: "It's very good of you, Mr. Gregg, to wish me all sorts of such pleasant things." "And when is the happy event to take place?" "The date is not exactly fixed—early next year, I believe," and I thought she sighed. "And you will probably spend a good deal of time yachting?" I suggested, my eyes fixed upon her in order to watch the result of my pointed remark. But she controlled herself perfectly. "Mr. Woodroffe has gone up to town, your mother says." "Yes. He received a wire, and had to leave immediately. It was an awful bore, for we had arranged to go for a picnic to Dundrennan* abbey yesterday." "But he'll be back here again, won't he?" "I really don't know. It seems quite uncertain. I had a letter this morning which said he might have to go over to Hamburg on business, Instead of coming up to us again." There was disappointment in her voice, and yet at the same time I could not fail to recognize how the man to whom she was engaged had fled from Scotland because of my presence. As we passed along those graveled walks it somehow became vividly impressed upon me that her marriage was being forced upon her by her parents. Her manner was that of one who was concealing some strange and terrible secret which she feared might be revealed. There was a distant look of unutterable terror in those dark eyes as though she existed In some constant and ever-present dread. Of "Excellent!" I exclaimed, for I wanted an opportunity for another chat wit* the dark-eyed girl who was engaged to the* man whose aHas was Homey* I particelarjy desired to ascertain the reason of her fear when I had mentioned the Lola, and whether she possessed any knowledge of HyltonChater. The opportunity came to me in due course, for next aftetaoon the Rannoch petty drove over hi two large brakes, t a d with other people frost the osighand a band treat Dumfries, sty a gay and As Z expected. Woodroffe did not accompany the party. Mrs. Leithcourt a slightly fassy littls lor his absence, explaining that he had to bet was retamteg to at the end of the «o The Picture Was That of a Young Girt coarse she told me nothing of her own feelings or affections, yet I recognised In both her words and her bearing; a curious apathy a want of the real enthusiasm of affection. Woodroffe, much her senior, was her tether's friend, and it therefore seemed to likely that Letthcourt was pressing a alliance upon his daughter lor sesse ulterior motive. She was she longed to confide and advice of someone, yet by of dinners, and while my uncle several times Invited Leithcourt and bis friends to his shoot with al fresco luncheon, which the ladies joined, the tenant of Rannoch always Invited us back in return. Thus I gained many opportunities of talking with Muriel, and of watching her closely. I had the reputation of being a confirmed bachelor, and on account of that it seemed that she was In no way averse to my companionship. She could handle a rook rifle as well as any woman, and was really a very fair shot. We often found ourselves alone tramping across the wide open moorland, or along those delight ful glens of the Nithsdale, glorious in the autumn tints of their luxurious foliage. Her father, on the other hand, seemed to view me with considerable suspicion, and I could easily discern j that I was only asked to Rannoch because it was impossible to invite my uncle without including myself. His pronounced antipathy towards me caused me to watch him surreptitiously, and more closely than perhaps I should otherwise have done. He was a man of gloomy mood, and often he would leave his guests and take walks alone, musing and brooding. On several occasions I followed him in secret, and found to my surprise that although he made long detours in various directions, yet he always arrived at the same spot at the same hour—five o'clock. The place where he halted was on the edge of a dark wood on the brow of a hill about three miles from Rannoch. Leithcourt never went there direct, but always so timed his walks that he arrived just at five, and remained there smoking cigarettes until half-past, as though awaiting the arrival of some person he expected. In my youth I had sat many a quiet hour there in the darkening gloom and knew the wood well, and was able to watch the tenant of Rannoch from points where he least suspected the presence of another. Once, when I was alone with Muriel, I mentioned her father's capacity for walking alone, whereupon she said: "Oh, yes, he was always fond of walking. He used to take me with him when we first came here, but he always went so far that I refused to go any more." She never once mentioned Woodroffe. I allowed her plenty of opportunity for doing so, chaffing her about her forthcoming marriage In order that she might again refer to him. But never did his name pass her lips. I understood that he had gone abroad— that was all. Often when alone I reflected upon my curious adventure on that night when I met Olinto, and of my narrow escape from the hands of my unknown enemies. I wondered if that ingenious and dastardly attempt upon my life had really any connection with that strange incident at Leghorn. As day succeeded day, my mind became filled by Increasing suspicion. Mystery surrounded me on every hand. Indeed, by one curious fact alone it was increased a hundredfold. Late one afternoon, when I had been out shooting all day with the Rannoch party, I drove back to the castle in the Perth cart with three other men, and found the ladles assembled in the great hall with tea ready. A welcome log fire was blazing in the huge old grate, for In October It is chilly and damp in Scotland and a fire is pleasant at evening. Muriel was seated upon the high padded fender—like those one has at clubs—which always formed a coxy spot for the ladles, especially after dinner. When I entered, she rose quickly and handed me my cup, exclaiming as she looked at me: "Oh, Mr. Gregg! What a state you are ln!M "Yes, I was after snipe, and slipped into a bog," I laughed. "Bat it was early this morning, and the mud has dried." "Come with me, and I'll get you a brush," she urged. And I followed her through the long corridors and upstairs to a small sitting-room which was her own little sanctum, where she worked and read—a coxy little place with two queer old windows In the colossal wan, and a floor of polished oak, and great black beams above. As my eyes wandered around the room they suddenly fell upon an object which canned me to start with profound wonder a cabinet photograph In a frame of crimson leather. The picture was that of a young girl —a duplicate of the portrait I had found torn across and flung aside on hoard the Lola! The mil i j eyes laughed out at me I<Mood staring nt it in sheer be- "Long ago?" "A little over two years ago." "She's very beautiful!" 1 declared, taking up the photograph and discovering that it bore the name of the same weU-known photographer in New Bond street as that I had found on the carpet of the Lola In the Mediterranean. "Yes. She's really prettier than her photograph. It hardly does her Justice." "And where ia she now?" "Why are you so very inquisitive, Mr. Gregg?" laughed the handsome girl. "Have you actually fallen in love with her from her picture?" "I'm hardly given to that kind of thing, Miss Leithcourt," 1 answered with mock severity. "I don't think even my worst enemy could call me a flirt, could she?" "No. I will give you your due," she declared. "You never do flirt. That is why I like you." "Thanks for your candor, Miss Leithcourt," I said. "Only," she added, "you seem smitten with Elma's cbarmB." "I think she's extremely pretty," I remarked, with the photograph still in my hand. "Do you ever see her now?" "Never," she replied. "Since the day 1 left school we have never met. She was several years younger than myself, and 1 heard that a week after I left Chichester her people came and took her away. Where she is now I have no idea. Her people lived somewhere in Durham. Her father was a doctor." ""Then you have heard absolutely nothing as to her present position or whereabouts—whether she is married, for instance?" "Ah!" she cried mischievously. "You betray yourself by your own words. I Listened, Trying to Distinguish the Words Uttered. You have fallen in love with her, I really believe, Mr. Gregg. If she knew, she'd be most gratified—or at least she ought to be." At' which I smiled, preferring that she should adopt that theory in preference to any other. She spoke frankly, as a pure honest girl would speak. She was not jealous, but she neverthless resented—as women do resent such things—that I should fall in love with a friend's photograph. There was a mystery surrounding that torn picture; of that I was absolutely certain. The remembrance of that memorable evening when I had dined on board the Lola arose vividly before me. Why had the girl's portrait been so ruthlessly - destroyed ? Hour by hour the mystery surrounding the Leithcourts became more inscrutable, more intensely absorbing. I had searched a copy of the London directory at the Station hotel at Carlisle, and found that no house in Green street was registered as occupied by the tenant of Rannoch; and, further, when I came to examine the list of! guests at the castle, I found that they were really persons unknown In society. Leithcourt seemed to possess a long pocket and smiled upon those parasites, officers of doubtful commission and younger sprigs of the pseudo-aristocracy who surrounded him, while his wife, keen-eyed and of superb bearing, was punctilious concerning all points of etiquette, and at the same time indefatigable that her mixed set of guests should enjoy a really good time. Next day I shot with the Carxsftehaels of Ciusshoin, and about four •'clock, after a food day, took leave of the party M the Black Glen, and started off alone to walk home, a i*ttaint of shout six aallea. It hog flank, and would he suite dark, i I reached smy uncle's My ntont direct way wan to '<"' m over a wide moor foil of bogs and pitfall* isr the ft»w«*,* My gun over "fay sbaajdsr, 1 walked on for about thre^-quscsflpw of an hour, and had nearly traversed the wood, at that heur so dajk that I had considerable difficulty In finding my way, when—of a sudden—1 fancied 1 distinguished voices. I halted. Yes. Men were talking in low tones of confidence, and in that calm stillness of evening they appeared nearer to me tb,an they actually were. 1 listened, trying to distinguish the words uttered, but could stake out nothing. They were moving slowly together, in close vicinity to myself, for their feet stirred the dry leaves, and I could hear the boughs cracking as they forced their way through them. Of a sudden, while standing there not daring to breathe lest I should betray my presence, a strange sound fell upon my eager ears. Next moment I realized that I was at that place where Leithcourt so persistently kept his disappointed tryst, having approached it from within the wood. The sound alarmed me, and yet it was neither an explosion of fire arms nor a startling cry for help. One word reached me in the darkness— one single word of bitter and withering reproach. Heedless of the risk I ran and the peril to which I exposed myself, I dashed forward with a resolve to penetrate the mystery, until I came to the gap in the rough stone wall where Leithcourt's habit was to halt each day at sundown. There, in the falling darkness, the sight that met my eyes at the spot held me rigid, appalled, stupefied. In that instant I realized the truth— a truth that was surely the strangest ever revealed to any man. CHAPTER V. Contains Certain Confidences. As I dashed forward to the gap in the boundary wall of the wood, I nearly stumbled over a form lying across the narrow path. So dark was it beneath the trees that at first I could not plainly make out what it was until I bent and my hands touched the garments of a woman. Her hat had fallen off, for I felt it beneath my feet, while the cloak was a thick woolen one. Was she dead, I wondered? That cry—that single word of reproach— sounded in my ears, and it seemed plain that she had been struck down ruthlessly after an exchange of angry words. I felt in my pocket for my ve3tas, but unfortunately my box was empty. Yet just at that moment my strained ears caught a sound—the sound of someone moving stealthily among the fallen leaves. Seizing my gun, I demanded who was there. There was, however, no response. The instant I spoke the movement ceased. It seemed evident that a tragedy had occurred, and that the victim at my feet was a woman. But who? Of a sudden, while I stood hesitating, blaming myself for being without matches, I heard the movement repeated. Someone was quickly receding— escaping from the spot. I sprang through the gap, straining my eyes into the gloom, and as I did so could just distinguish a dark figure receding quickly beneath the wall of the wood. In an instant I dashed after it. Down the steep hill to the Scarwater I followed the fugitive, crossing the old footbridge near Penpont, and then up a wild winding glen towards the Caimmore of Deugh. For a couple of miles or more I was close behind, until, at a turn in the dark wooded glen where it branched in two directions, I lost all trace of the person who flew from me. Whoever it was they had very cleverly gone Into hiding In the undergrowth of one or other of the two glens—which, I could not decide. I stood out of breath, the perspiration pouring from me, undecided how to act Was it Leithcourt himself whom I had surprised? That idea somehow became impressed upon me, and I suddenly re* solved to go boldly across to Rannoch and ascertain for myself. Therefore, with the excuse that I waa belated o s my walk home, I turned hack dowm the glen, and half an hour afterward entered the great well-lighted hall of the castle where the guests, ready dressed, were assembling prior to dinner. I was welcomed warmly, and just then Leithcourt himself Joined hst guests, ready dressed In his dinner Jacket, having Just descended front has "Holloa, Greggrhe fly, holding eat his day of i t evidently -Very fair," I longer with hist and have got in •«•£ %- ./"; ' • * ' • "** '**?•*'« iVS*.' .•: .<>, ^ * • . • .

MONKS B R O S . THE FBHLT? OF GMEESSNESS By 8. W. Ingllsh, Fire Prevention Expert. Every time you hear the cry ot "Fire!" you can be almost absolutely •ale in thinking that someone has been careless. Fires don't happen. They are the inevitable result of combinations of preventable things. When analyzed to the last equation it will be found that carelessness ia the root whence spring nearly all fires. What a penalty industry pays to carelessness: Fire ia the great destroyer. The wealth of a generation can be wiped out In but a brief hour- Why not fight fires before they start? Why not so conduct your habits and so keep your premises that when the fire demon wants to offer your savings as a sacrifice he will pass you by, just as those of Egypt of old were passed over when the sign they had been told to place over their doors, were seen? Too often when those who are responsible from fire cry out they are the victims of bad luck, they are but paying the natural penalty for their own carelessness.

The purpose of such an organization is to study economic and business op- J portunities of the city and promote enterprises which will help to build the city Does any one know of a good and sufficient reason why every rural neighborhood ought not have a similar organization? in Germany they already have such organizations They are generally called the "landwirthschaftsrath" or agricultural council. Some students of the problem of rural organization are strongly of the opinion that such an agricultural council is necessary before much can be done for the bettering of rural credit or the marketing of farm produce. There is no object, for example, in having more capital/In a farming neighborhood unless the farmers know without any guest-work just how to use that capital so as to increase the production and the profit of their farms. If all the leading farmers of a neighborhood would lay their heads together and talk over the situation and study the opportunities for new investment, they would be less likely to make mistakes than if they work secretly, as separate Individuals.

It often happens that the woman who loves plants-has no sunny windows in which to grow them, and, under the Impression that they cannot be successfully grown without sunshine, she does not attempt their cultivation, thus depriving herself of a great^ deal of pleasure, especially in the winter. There is no good reason why the lover of plants should be without their company In the winter, provided, of course, that the temperature of the rooms can be regulated to Veep out the frost, and some of the plants that can be grown in the windows that are without sunshine are among our most desirable ones for house culture. First on the list I would place the Boston fern. Nearjy everyone is familiar with this plant. It requires only the ordinary attention. Give it a soil of garden loam, with enough coarse, sharp sand worked into It to make it friable, a liberal, but not an excessive amount of water and a temperature varying several degrees above the frost point, and anyone may be reasonably sure of success with i t It does not do very well, however, In steam-heated, gas-lighted rooms. No plants will flourish under such conditions, though many will live on indefinitely under them The Aspidistra is about the only plant I would dare to recommend to those Uring in rooms heated and lighted as mentioned above. This plant has an almost iron constitution, which enables it to withstand influences that would soon kill most plants. It seems to care nothing for the sunshine, and therefore is excellently adapted to cultivation in sunless If not subject to the debilitating effect of steam heat It will make a most luxuriant growth, and its rich, • dark leaves will afford a vast amount of pleasure. While it it able to withstand unfavorable conditions better than other plants, it is always grateful for good ears, and the plants that are cared for well are always the ones that give the beat satisfaction, keep in mind. English ivy is an old favorite. Twined up about a window, it is a beautiful sight to see. I know-of no •toe having more attractive foliage. Its dark, rich leaves have Just the thick, leathery texture a plant should bate to resist the effect of dry air and dast Dust need never be allowed to aecnmulete on i t however. Dast the vine every day. Ton need not be afraid of injuring the foliage. Petal of the finest specimens of It I sswe ever seen have never bad a ajBmpes of sanehine. Give it a eon of Bare its pot well drained; water Be on the lookout for If the etalka, bet sometimes on the the entire plant wttfc tftkmw care to rub the the hooks that hold it—and there you are. The Whitman fern is a fitting companion for the Boston fern, of which it is a sport This variety has much shorter fronds than the Boston fern. They are much wider, however, and their leaflets are subdivided in such a manner that each becomes a miniature frond. The effect is light and feathery and exceedingly graceful. This is a most excellent plant for a place at the sill, while the Boston variety is more effective if given a bracket half way up the window, from which point of vantage its long fronds can droop in such manner as to display their charms most effectually. All plant lovers have a desire to grow some member of the Adlantum branch of the fern family in the living room. Pew have succeeded in doing this, however, because of the delicacy of the ordinary varieties. But we have one now that will adapt itself ordinarily to the cultivation which prevails in the usual home. Thia is Crowcanum. I have given it a year's trial and it has proved satisfactory— as satisfactory as the old Boston fern. It is stronger, sturdier in habit than any other Adlantum I have ever Been and its foliage Is thicker and firmer. It grows to a height of about eighteen inches and has a corresponding spread of branches. Its foliage has all the grace that characterizes this division of the great fern family, and a well-grown specimen is a thing to be proud of. Give it a soil of loam, turfy matter or leaf mold and sand, equal parts. Let its drainage be good; water well and cover with something when you dost the room. All the plants mentioned above are non-flowering. Or, more strictly speaking, they are grown for their foliage only. Whatever flowers they have are so insignificant as to be unnoticeable. But there are flowering plants quite well adapted to culture in sunless windows. One of these is Primula obconica. Another is Primula Forbeslt Primula obconica has much longer flowers than the other variety and is therefore more showy, but Primula Forbesli is a moat charming little thing that win win Its way to the heart of every person who loves flowers. Its flowers are small, but there are a great many of them. This is the plant sold so extensively at holiday time under the nam* of baby primrose. Give i t and obconica as well, a light spongy soil and a good deal of water. Having a multitude of fine roots, they extract the moisture from the soil vary rapidly and the amount that would be sufficient for ordinary plants woold be entirely inadequate to supply their They will bloom constantly and with wonderful profaalon during the entire winter. Tonne eeedMns; plants can be procured of all florists in the fan.

Experts Prove That Overheated Rooms Without Proper Ventilation Produce 9erloue Physiological Defects. Air is bad when it is overheated, when it contains an exceas of moisture, and when it is chemically contaminated. This is the conclusion of the New York state commission on ventilation as summarised by Prof. C. £1 A. Wlslow, chairman. The first Indictment against bad air shows that an increase in temperature beyond the normal seventy degrees produces serious derangement of the vaso-motor mechanism of the body, resulting in a rise of temperature, increased pulse, and a lowered blood pressure, with a corresponding decrease in efficiency, both physical and mental In addition to this, overheating conduces to an undesirable congestion of the mucous membranes of the nose, thus possibly paving the way for colds, sore throats, and attacks of various germ diseases. The work of the commission also proves that chemical accumulations in the air as a result of stagnation bring about a decreased appetite for food, which in'tarn must have an unfavorable effect on the entire body. In the commission's experiments, the people living in fresh air ate 4¼ to 13 per cent more than those living in stagnant air. "These experiments," says Professor Winslow, "indicate that fresh air is needed at all times and in all places. While we have changed our ideas as to what causes bad air, ventilation is hist as essential to remove heat produced by human bodies as it was once thought to be to remove the carbon dioxide produced by human lungs, and it is now proved also to be essential for carrying away chemical products which exert a measurable effect upon the appetite for food. People who live and work in overheated and unventilated rooms are reducing their vitality and rendering themselves an easy prey to all sorts of diseases, such as tuberculosis, pneumonia, grippe, etc." fitting Kind.

As the British forces under General Kitchener neared Khartum, a dervish spy was discovered in camp and taken to headquarters for examination. But neither bribes nor threats could elicit one word from the prisoner; he affected to be both deaf and dumb. Scarcely had be been put In a tent under guard, when another spy was led in who proved equally obdurate, so he was put with the first orie. Half an hour later, when the camp was settling down to rest, there was a fresh stir and hubbub and a third spy was brought in, who also wonld reveal nothing, and was finally placed In the tent with his fellows. Soon the guards outside heard a murmur of voices from within. The dumb spies had found their tongues, but It was Impossible to overhear their talk distinctly or to understand It An hour or more passed. Then the door of the tent was thrown open, and the third spy appeared and asked to be taken to headquarters. There he threw off his disguise and revealed—General Kitchener! He had discovered all he wanted to know. MEANS MUCK TO NAVAL MEM ,*" i"i Ability to Comnwnloe(U Thrown* Water One of Most Recent.Important Discoveries, Several American battleships and submarines are now equipped with R. A. Fessenden's submarine wireless apparatus. This sends messages more than thirty miles under water, and the inventor expects that with experience it will be possible so to improve* the apparatus as to make it send and. receive for several hundreds of miles. The apparatus starts a metal vibrating so rapidly that it* waves of sound through the Sound travels through wate times as rapidly as through air. In an article in the American Magesine, Cleveland Moffett quotes Professor FeBsenden as saying; "You see the importance of these oscillators in naval warfare, for a bat* tleshlp equipped with such instruments can talk to Its own submarines ^ \ v while they are miles away and subaVp^ merged and can actually direct their :- movements against an enemy's vessels." - : * ' * & .'%> 4V* Rubber, "You like to look after the passing girls so," grumbled hia wife, "that it's a pity nature didn't give-you eyes in the back of your head.""

Borne estimates of the discharge of the Yangtse-kiang river and of the amount of sediment it carries have recently been published by Prof. Konrad Keilhack of the Berlin School of Mines, who visited the river in September, 1918, when the stage of water was unusually high. From measurements of depth made at Wusung, Nanking, and Hankow, and estimates of width and velocity, this authority concludes that the discharge below Hankow (685 miles from the mouthj), amounts in time of fl^*i to 8,500,000 cubic feet per second. The annual mean is estimated at 1,750,000 cubic feet per second. Filtration measurements made at the mouth, near Wusung, taken in conjunction with the above figures for discharge Indicate an annual transport of sediment at the average rate of 37,600 pounds per second, or a total of 684,000,000 tons per annum.

The prim young weman from New Eisjland who was devoting herself to the education of the negro in a southern school told one of her small scholars to bring a bucket of water from the spring. "I ain't gwine fotch no water," he whined, rebeiliously. "Oh, Eph!" she protested, "you mustn't say that.

Nothing in the way of treatment did him any good, and he realized sadly that he could never be even a noncommissioned officer, because he could not give the simplest words of command without stuttering. He was a brave and efficient soldier, and always first in the firing line. At the battle of Marquis Redmond was Bhot in the mouth. The Mauser bullet jessed downward and came out at the nape of the neck. He was taken to the hospital, where he recovered rapidly, and all that could be seen of the wound was a little scar about his upper lip where the bullet entered. But the remarkable thing about the affair was when he left the hospital he was cured of his habit of stuttering. How It happened neither he nor the doctors can explain, but he was so Joyous over the fact that he blessed the bullet that brought him relief.

I cannot praise your medicine too highly."—lira. AUGUSTUS LYON, Terre Hill, Pa. It is true that nature and a woman's work iias produced the grandest remedy for woman's Ills that the world has ever known. From the r o o t s a n d herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham, forty years ago, gave to womankind a remedy for their peculiar ills which has proved more efficacious than any other combination of drugs ever compounded, and today Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is r e c o g n i s e d from coast to coast as the standard remedy for woman's ilia. In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., are files containing hundreds of thousands of letters from women seeking health—many of them openly state over their own signatures that they have regained their health by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable C o m p o u n d ; and in some cases that it has saved them from surgical operations.

Th# struggle now going on between the resbe? sad the iron tire nrdmises to toe the liveliest contest of the Twentieth Century. The struggle l i a silent one and there are no war correspondents to write vivitf descriptions of the conflict hut the results are more farrearhlng to present and future fenerations than the war of Europe. T h e rubber tire has been maneuver lag for point of attack for several y e a n and has captured a few unimportant positions In traffic, but it has now pitched a decisive battle with Its Iron competitor by hurling a million "jitneys" at the street railways and the battle is racing from ocean to ocean. Upon the result of the straggle depends the future of the rubber tire. If it is compelled to retreat, its doom is sealed, but if it wins the battle it will revolutionize the transportation methods of this nation. If the rubber tire conquers the street traffic its next struggle is with the railroads of the country, and then the greatest battle between economic jforces ever fought out on the face S t h i s earth is on, for iron is the undisputed master in transportation, and is fortified behind billions of dollars, and millions of men.

Few people in viewing the hay of Ism Frandaco think of it as other than a magnificent landlocked harbor about which has grown the commercial metropolis of the Pacific coast of the United States. • Yet this harbor did not always exist, according to a report on the geology of the region published by the United States geological survey, for at one time through the depression now occupied by the bay ran a great river that drained the Sficramento and San Joaquin valleys. This river probably flowed between the Tiburon peninsula and Angel Island and then through the gorge of the Golden Gate, where at present the greatest depth of water is over 400 feet After the river valiey was formed the coast slowly sank, and the ocean entered through the Golden Gate, flooded the valley and formed the present bay. Thus the valley occupied by tbe bay is really not so very different from Santa Clara and Santa Bosa valleys, and should the Pacific coast sink a few hundred feet lower those fertile valleys would form great additions to the present ba^e Eighth.

The recent investigation of the United States Commission of Industrial Relations brought together the extremes of society and has gttea the public an opportunity to view the representatives of distinct clause, aide by side, and to study their views hi parallel columns. Capital and labor hare always been glaring at each other over gulfs of misunderstanding and if the Federal Industrial Commission attempts to bridge the chasm, it will render the public a distinct service. The farmer has been sitting on the fence watching capital and labor fight for many years and incidentally furnishing the sinews of war and it is ouite gratifying to find them talking with, instead of about, each other. When honest men smile and look into each other's souls, it always makes the world better and far more satisfactory to the farmer, who in the end, bears the burden of conflict, than resolutions, speeches % r pamphlets containing charges and counter* charges. The love for justice makes the whole world kin. Understanding U s a arbiter far more powerful than the mandates of government, for there is no authority quite so commanding as an honest conscience; there is no decree quite so binding as that of the Supreme Court of Common Sense and no sheriff can keep the peace quite so perfect as Understanding. We suppose the time win never come when capital, and labor will not be occasionally blinded by the lightning flashes of avarice or frightened by the thunder peals of discontent But .Understanding is a Prince of Peace that ever holds out the olive branch to men who want to do right A man's income is always a sacred thing for in it are the hope, ambition and opportunity of himself, and family, hut there is nothing in a human heart quite so divine aa Justice aad Wnderetanding is its handmaiden.

Pinckney, Livingston County, Michigan, Wednesday, May 26, ]915 No. 22 ••rn.r Eighth Grade Tuition Statistics compiled in the Department of Public Instruction show that school districts are this year paying the tuition of more than ten thousand eighth grade graduates to high schools. This tuition amounts to $235,747. Thousands of beys and girls in rural schools of the state will this month receive eighth grade diplomas from the Superintendent of Pablic Instruction as the result of having passed the eighth grade examination. Perhaps no recent law has more directly benefited the boys and girls of rural communities than the one which requires districts to pay the tuition of those holding eighth grade diplomas to any high school in the state, providing however that the amount shall not exceed twenty dollars unless the people at the annual meeting vote to pay more. The high school is to be selected by the pupil. Written application for this tuition must be made to the board by the parent or guardian on or before the fourth Monday in June. A child for whom tuition must be paid is one who 1B a resident of the district on the fourth Monday of June and who ia either the holder of a county eighth grade diploma or of a written statement from the superintendent of a graded district that he has passed the eighth grade in that district or that he has passed a grade above the eighth grade. The Superintendent of Public Instruction is very anxious that no boy or girl who is qualified to have his tuition paid shall be deprived of the privilege because of failure to make proper application. Obituary Margaret Kuhn was bom Aug. 20,1834 in Livingston county, N. T., and came with her parents to the township of Iosco in 1837, where she lived until her death, Wednesday, May 12. At the age of 84 she was united in marriage to David Roberts, also of Iosco. To this anion were born four children, Bert and Joseph of Iosco and John and Mrs. Homer Wasson of Unadilla all of whom with the husband and eight grand-children are left to mourn the loss of a kind and loving wife, mother and grand-mother. In her young womanhood, she and her brother Simon lived on the farm 6ow owned by George Harford where they took and cared for a little motherless girl and gave her the love and care of a father and mother until she married Milo M. Abbott in 1871. She too survives to mourn their loss. Mrs. Roberts gave her heart to God in her young girlhood and has always lived a consistent christian life, dying in the triumph of living faith. She was a great sufferer of cancer of the liver, bnt bore her suffering with moon patience, being cared for by the loving hands of hatband and childran.

BETTER POSTAL SAVINGS SERVICE Every person in the United States ten years old or more may open an account in a postal savings bank after Jane 1st, according to an instructive leaflet on the Postal Savings System just issued by Postmaster General Burleson. Postal savings receipts have broken all records the pest year. During the eight months prior to April 1st there was a net gain ia deposits of $19,000,000 against a gain of $8,000,000 for the same months the year before. While the savings at the local postoffioe have not increased during the past year, the new changes that have been made in the system are such that nearly everyone can take advantage of placing their money in Uncle Sam's safe keep* ing should they care to do so. i I I # .

The men who- will ride or march on that day are survivors of a war which <o the younger generations has become almost ancient history. They are all old men, though many of them will not admit it. There is this strange thing about the celebration of the day. The Civil war became, before it ended, an antialavery war, but the men who were prominent in the antislavery movement will not appear in the processions. They are gone. One can almost count upon his fingerB those who remain. But the men who fought the battles that were brought on by their agitations still live, by hundreds of thousands. The explanation ia a simple one. The antialavery agitators were mature men—some of them old men. The Civil war was fought, largely, by young men and youth. More than 800,000 enlisted at seventeen or below that age; more than 2.000,000 were not more than twenty-one. Only ¢18,511 were twenty-two and above, and only 46,026 of these were twentylive or above. And so it happens that among the marchers will be seen many who, nearly fifty years after the cloee of the war, will not appear to be old. So, also. It happens that the pension roils contain the names of more than 400,- 000 veterans of the Civil war, who are •tin living. If one cares to compare these selected men with those who were rejected aa physically unfit or defective, he will be interested In noticing the Grand Army button on the lapels of the coats of gray-headed men, as he puses them in the street The little bronze button, or the smaller red. white and blue button of the Loyal Legion, appear very frequently, and that in spite of the fact that hundreds of thousands of the men selected as fit were killed in battle or died of wounds during the war, and many others hare since died from disease contracted during the contest The youthfulness of those who made up the army of those days suggests a thought not often made prominent In dtacnsstmis of the pension question. While a pension is not designed to recompense pecuniary losses incurred by the pensioner in his service, n Is veil to remember that the boy or young man, from sixteen to eighteen, who left school tor three years in the fsnnative period of his life, was never anas to make up what he lost ia eduand that thoot who were above of whom were just the first steps In promising by giving up their opportuni> la Mfe. The sip, and at'be a place in the at they got into tt at an. of the graves of the falof fba ctvfl strife and of and appreciation of the vast bestowment that the blood of the fallen contributed to the nation and to the world. Freedom unfurled her banner once more, and this time it was over the gory fields of fratricidal warfare; this time it was not to the trumpeting of a declaration of independence, but to the sonorous sound of the proclamation of freedom for the servile classes of the population. The South was freed from its trammels and blossomed out as the section of the country most American and endowed with the greatest wealth of unrealized resources. The country blossomed out in the new power and influence of a union indissoluble, of a house no longer divided against itself. The world paid tribute to the heroes or battlefields aa sacred as any of those which, in Holy Writ, set forth the epochs in the progress of mankind In the theocracies of the past. Freedom had given it a new content and civilization had bestowed upon it a new dignity, and life, and valor were given fresh glory in the tremendous struggle which is commemorated on Decoration day—the day of solemn hush, yet of glorious recollection, the day when the tears of sad recollection are shot through with the rainbows of a perennial rejoicing. The commission of liberty cannot be laid aside, even if the nation that has set up the standard of freedom for mankind could discharge its obligations to the world otherwise. Wherever there are oppressed there is felt the magnet of the Influence of American freedom; and so from the serf-afflicted land of Russia, from the life-burdened lands of Europe, come the slaves of oppression and of har&h discrimination, the subjects of the curse of inequality, that they may join in the song of those redeemed from such conditions or those whose birthright it is to enjoy life, liberty and the. pursuit of happiness. No wonder that the country is virtually at pause as the observation of the sacred day of reverence tor the nation's slain uplifts to the view of mankind the dignity and power of ideals that are woven into the life and character of a free people. No wonder that from the highest to the lowliest the officers of state and the citizens pay tribute to the men who remade the nation. Animosity, resentment schism are aH in the past and a united people rejoice in the outcome of a fiercely dividing struggle. To the world of today, this great tragedy of half a century ago Is hut tradition and not a living memory, but the passing years can never efface that record from the very souis of those who went through that fiery furnace in the great struggle for the nation's Bfe with Its frightful toll of precious young Uvea sauttuad to the Moloch of one of the world's greatest wars. Costly indeed was the price with which a s dawning at Skfloh; 1(,909 wont down, at CiVislmtniiy; 1MM at Anttetaa. and 11,999 more at 17*99 kflloi or crippled at lorsriBe: 1M99 five* w t l i m •eld at Gettyoborg; 1M99 at saanga; 1*499 a* 17*99 se8 ft* the Battle of 304,000 dead—one man for every nine who wore the blue. From the lips of thoughtless youth we sometimes hear the flippant charge that the "old soldiers are still fighting the old battle of the Civil war," little realizing what they mean to the scarred survivors of those epoch-making days. Who that "marched with Sherman to the sea" can ever forget? Who that came back, from the slippery slopes of Gettysburg can ever forget the bloody tragedy which for three long days turned Its peaceful quiet in to .aT seething hell of shot and shell? Who that witnessed the destruction by the Confederate army itself, of its last hope and stronghold, the city of Richmond, in that memorable April of *65, will ever forget the indescribable Bcene of horror, with the roar of an Immense conflagration sounding in their ears, while the explosion of the gunboats shook the doomed city to its very foundation? Thirty city blocks swept out of existence by the spreading flames, 1,000 houses destroyed, while hundreds of hospitals and almshouse inmates were said to have been blown into eternity. Such is war! God forbid that our land shall ever know another, but let us forevermore remain one people, loyal to one flag, and united in one earnest effort to make this nation the grandest ever risen on the tides of time- Memories like these are ineffaceable, and who has a better right to live again—-"fight," if you will—the battles of that fast-receding period, than the proud heroes of that day? But the honored ranks of that once powerful army are rapidly thinning. Day by day in ever increasing numbers slowly winds the funeral cortege through the streets of Washington to that vast, silent encampment on the wooded heights of Arlington, that consecrated spot whose silence is only intensified by the dropping of an acorn or 4fie whir of a wild bird's wing. Not many are the years before other hands must deck our soldiers' graves with the flowers of spring, but when the last soldier of that great war shall have followed comrade and commander to that land which knows no bugle call to arms, may these lowly graves be still the shrine whereon an unforgettlns people shall lay their tribute of bloom and blossom, and be forever guarded by that emblem of the world's best hopes, and the heritage of a people yet to be—that splendid, costly flag for whose EAvnedr yev setrryid set aorf ocnri fmieslodn o fh ubelu. e.

Plant Just Now Is st Its Best and Should Have a Place on Every Table—Dumplings That Appeal to the Children. Rhubarb is at its best just now, AS well as cheap, so it ia a good time to serve it often at the table. But in order to have it appreciated it should be prepared in a variety of ways. Very delicious preserves can be made with rhubarb either alone or combined with another fruit Rhubarb and Fig Jam. — To five pounds of rhubarb cut short lengths allow one pound of cooking figs, the grated rind and Juice of one lemon, and four pounds of sugar. This should stand over night, and In the morning be cooked very slowly for an hour. Then put into glasses and seal Rhubarb Jam.—To each pound of rhubarb allow one pound of sugar and one lemon. Peel the yellow rind thin and slice the pulp. Put away over night with the cut rhubarb as before described, and boil for three^uarters of an hour slowly. Pour into jars and seat Rhubarb and Orange Jam.—Put three pounds of oranges into a preserving kettle with plenty of cold water and simmer for three hours. Drain and cut up the oranges, rejecting the seeds. Put six pounds of granulated sugar into the kettle with Just a little water and stir frequently until It boils. Then put in the oranges with three pounds of rhubarb cut into short lengths. Stir again until the mixture boils and then let the whole simmer for another twenty minutes. Rhubarb Dumplings-—Children will enjoy these for lunch or supper, even though they do not like rhubarb. The rhubarb is stewed In half its weight of sugar and a little water. While it la cooking mix a biscuit batter, using a pint of flour, one-half teaspoonful salt, two teaspoonful* of making powder and a cupful of milk. Drop this in the rhubarb by spoonfuls and cook for from eight to ten minutes. A pinch of ground ginger or a few raisins can be added if the flavor is liked. Rhubarb Jelly.—This makes a nice Sunday dessert, because It can be prepared the day before. Soak one-halt box of gelatin tn half a cupful of cold water for an hour. Cook two pounds of rhubarb in a very little water and when reduced to a pulp sweeten to taste. Set aside and cook one cupful of sugar with one of water for twenty minutes. Stir the soaked gelatin into the boiling sirup and stir until dissolved. Remove from the fire, add the rhubarb and set away in a mold to cool. Rhubarb sponge is made as for jelly, but when It begins to thicken the beaten whites of three eggs are whipped in until the jelly is quite stiff. Serve with whipped cream or a thin custard made from the yolks of the eggs. Rhubarb Compote,—A compote Is very little more trouble than stewing, but infinitely more attractive whenjerved. Boil one cupful of sugar with a wineglassful of water for five minutes. Then drop in short lengths of rhubarb, a few at a time, so they retain their shape- Take them out with a skimmer as they become tender and lay in a dish. Pour the sirup over and serve when cold.

Place them In a shallow baking pan, mixing them with a half pound of Brazil nuts which have been peeled and chopped fine, sprinkle over two teaspoonfuls of salt cover with strained tomatoes and bake for two hours.

Grape-Nuts IS tsssVt kigid o f footL a teaspoonful of lemon juice, two small onions, four whole cloves, three red peppers, a teaspoonful of salt and a bunch of herbs—including plenty of parsley. Cover and cook over a moderate fire until the water has been absorbed and the lentils are soft but not pulpy. Take out the herbs, onions and cloves and mix with the lentils half a pound of fresh mushrooms previously cooked in their own liquor and slightly flavored with mace —set aside tUe liquor of the mushrooms for gravy. Add to -lentil and mushroom mixture two tablespoonfuls of red currant jelly, a dessertspoonful of meat or vegetable extract, a little red pepper and some celery salt Add unbeaten eggs, one or two at a time, until the mixture Is well bound together. Then brush with egg, coat with brown breadcrumbs, after shaping into a cutlet, and fry in deep fat. With the cutlet serve a well-seasoned brown gravy, using the mushroom liquid as foundation, and adding at the last moment another small spoonful of currant jelly. Lentil omelet is a Bplendid luncheon or supper dish. Wash three tablespoonfuls of lentils, then cook them In salted water. Melt a tablespoonful of butter in a saucepan, fry in it a peeled chopped shallot, add the drained lentils and fry a few minutes. Moisten with three tablespoonfuls of brown sauce, season with salt and pepper and keep hot. Break six eggs and beat them up well with two table-' spoonfuls of cream, season and pour into an omelet pan containing some melted butter. When the omelet begins to set spread the lentils over it and fold over. A little tomato sauce may be poured around the base of the dish if desired. Cheese baked with lentils makes a substantial and easily prepared dish. Prepare the lentils as for the cutlet before the mushrooms are added and sprinkle several layers of grated cheese into the baking dish between the layers of lentils. On the top put thick slices of ripe tomatoes or cover well with canned ones. Over them sprinkle finely chopped parsley and dot the whole with small pieces of butter. Bake quickly and serve hot with or without gravy. In Germany one eats lentils this way: Wash two cupfuls of lentils, soak over night, drain and cover them and one onion with boiling water and cook until tender but not broken. Melt two tablespoonfuls of butter in a frying pan, stir in two tablespoonfuls of flour and cook' until brown; then add two onions, chopped fine, three tablespoonfuls of vinegar and two tablespoonfuls of the water th« lentils were cooked in, stir until boiling, add the drained lentils with salt and pepper as needed and a grating of nutmeg.

They Are Mentioned In the Bibie and Their Origin la Unknown, The origin of «eal«* is lost in the shades of antiquity.

Originally they were set in rln^s. The earliest refeivuces to them In Biblical history is found in Genesis xzz rill, where It is recorded that, pending certain negotiations between Judah and Tutuur. the widow of his •on, Tamar demanded a pledge and Judah gave her hU signet and other belongings. And when A bah, king of Urael, tried to buy Naboth's vineyard and couldn't ids wife Jeaebel "wrote letters in A ha It's name and sealed them with hla seal." In the boot of Esther, chapter vlti. It 1« writteu that King Ahaauenis said to Kather and Mordeoel, "Write ye also for the Jews, as 'it* Uketa you. In the kind's name and seal it with the king's ring, for the writing which is written In the king's name and sealed with bis riug may no man reverse." Seals doubt Ions were u*ed long before the stirring event* described in the quoted chapter of Genesis, but no one took the trouble to write about them From the time of Jeremiah to William the Conqueror the pen was practically unknown to klug, noble or peasant, so the seal was absolutely necessary-—Kanaka City Star.

One would think there would not be a dissenting votes to the opinion that the gridiron snort requires far more nerre. Vet there were several who streuqously debated this contention, holding that the mental strain was greater upon the man who plays baseball. "I played varsity baseball and varsity football," said one man of the group, "and I want to tell you that the only time 1 ever felt Inward tremors was when I stood at the plate facing 1 pitcher who had a fast ball. There is something about the situation—or always was to me—wuicb made me feeJ ; my helpleasjuees, made me feel at the mercy of the pitcher, or rather at the mercy of his-possible bad aim. In football &ou were fighting against one man and ne had nothing to throw at you.'' "1 felt the name way," chimed in a former varsity guard. "When I came from prep school I had n reputation as a pitcher, but I never tried for the team because I hadn't the nerve to face the shoots of varsity twirlers.

If a leaf rustles he sees it and starts. Sights and sounds which elude your powers of observation arrest his. The most conspicuous distinction between the dog and the ox at water is thia: The ox never heeds his master until his thirst Is quenched; the dog never heeds his thirst till hl« mssteris obeyed. I have seen a hound panting with heat, his blsck lips bnked, his tongue cracked, dsrt toward the c<x)l spring. But his master's whistle arrests him at the brink, ami he darts back without a drop.

HIS COUNTRY LATEST TO ENTER GREAT WORLD WAR Syracuse, N. Y.—The Jury In the trial of William Barnes, Jr.'s suit for Ubel against Theodore Roosevelt Saturday returned a verdict In favor of the defendant after considering for more than eleven hours the question of placing all the costs of the action upon the plaintiff. It la the belief of the jury everything Col. Roosevelt charged Is true and therefore the plaintiff, not having been libeled, Is entitled to no damages. Barnes had asked $50,000 damages because Roosevelt accused him of being In a crooked alliance with Boss Murphy of Tammany HalL The foreman of the Jury, Warren W. Summers, announced that the verdict was for the defendant and then the jury was polled. Ten Jurors answered "for the defendant," then the clerk hesitated, called the name of Edward Burns and waited. Burns, a big rosy cheeked Republican, stood up in his seat and in a deep voice, said: "For the defendant." Juror No. 12 gave the same answer. Before the jury came In the spectators In the crowded court-room were warned that any demonstration would be met with severe punishment Except for the voice of the clerk and Jurors, the room was absolutely quiet until the name of Burns was called. When he announced that he, too, favored a verdict for the former president, the court-room bussed like a dynamo with voices. Several persons in the court-room stood up and waved their hands, but there was no outburst of applause. Alter the announcement of the verdict attorneys for Mr. Barnes objected to its receipt. The objection was overruled, the Jury was thanked by Justice Andrews for Its services and It then filed out into the Jury room. Col. Roosevelt broke off shaking hands with his counsel and several newspaper men whom be has known for several years and hurried to the Jury room. There he thanked the Jury and shook hands with each member and said: "la my whole life I shall work in the interest of the public and none of you gentlemen shall ever have the chance to aay that I have done otherwise." The colonel was then photographed with the Jury. After the picture had been, taken the colonel turned to the Jury and continued: '1 am more moved by this verdict than it is possible for me to express. None of you, I assure you, will ever have cause to regret your action. I am' especially gratified that such a verdict came from a Jury composed of men of every political faith."

Lansing—Governor Ferris early Friday vetoed the Nank primary bill which was the bone of contention between him and the legislature Thursday. He was at his office at 7 o'clock, half an hour later had finished the veto message and it was ready for the public at 9 while the governor was at his hotel packing up for the week-end trip home. Governor Ferris insists that the bill is a step backward, not forward, and that the legislature of ISIS is dead wrong if the legislature of 1918, which abolished the enrollment and the. separate ballot, was right Jury Requires But One Ballot to Convict Muakefon Woman of Terrible Murder.

The words of Henry Wolf, foreman of the Jury, sounded as a death knell In the deserted circuit court room to the hopes of Mrs. Albert Steele, to whom the verdict means life imprisonment, for the strangling of her stepdaughter. It took the Jurors in the most sensational murder case ever tried in this court 17 minutes to agree. Seat to deliberate a half hour before their supper was to have been served them, they took but one ballot The crowd, which a few memenU before had packed every available/inch of space in the court room, had hurriedly left for supper. Taken back to the JaiL Mrs. Steele, slayer of her stepdaughter, Evallna Mary, collapsed. Dr. J. M. Cooper, county physician, was hastily summoned. Captain and Mrs. Philip Lawton, of the Salvation Army, were the only ones to comfort her. A mob rapidly gathered, striving to get a glimpse of the convicted woman. Officers barred all visitors from the Jail. Prosecuting Attorney Harris EL Galph concluded the arguments shortly after 5 o'clock. He gave a stirring review of the testimony, with here and there a pointed remark regarding the claims of the accused being insane when the crime was committed. On the question of whether or not Mrs. Steele realised what she was doing when she strangled her stepdaughter, prosecution and defense battled all day In arguments before the Jury. "You must be convinced that she was sane when she committed the act; you must be convinced it was a premeditated act that she was capable of conceiving a plan of murder and executing it to its fatal conclusion, before you can bring in a verdict of guilty on this charge," Attorney R. R. Gale, of the defense, declared. "Lack of motive is not essential, in sustaining a charge' of murder," Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Chrtetion A. Broetke asserted. His telling argument was that Mrs. Steele, who now professed entire ignorance of what transpired on the day of the murder, remembers washing at the Charles Shrebe home on the afternoon of the same day, and that she remembered to exhume the body which she bad buried m the morning. BRIEFS FRO! THE WIRE ITALY DECLARES WAR ON AUSTRIA PEOPLE ARE ENTHUSIASTIC AS MEN JOIN THE COLORS. 760,000 NOW UNDER ARMS Ambassador At Vienna Presents Official Notice and Leavea At Once For Home—First Skirmish On Frontier. Rome—Italy declared war against Austria Sunday afternoon. The state of war began officially May 24. The Dues, D'Avarna, the Italian ambassador at Vienna, was instructed to present the declaration to Baron Bur- Ian, the Austrian premier, and leave at once for home. When the public became aware of the fact that hesitation was at an end and the Italian government definitely committed to make war for the redemption of the territory inhabited by. Italians under the Austrian yoke, the enthusiasm of the people knew no bounds. All parties, even the Socialists, are now united in praise for the stand of the cabinet. While the general mobilisation order issued Friday will bring about 3,- 000,000 men to the colors within a month, it Is known that Italy will start the war with about 760,000 first line troops. At the outbreak of the European war the Italian army consisted of 300,000 men, the classes with the colors being those of 1891, 1892 and 1893. After the war started two more classes, including about 220,000 men Joined the colors. Various other changes recently made under orders from General Zupelli, the minister of war, brought the strength up to 760,- 000. It is likely that the army will be under the direct command of General Caneva, who led the Italian forces in the conquest of Tripoli, or General Count Cadorna, the chief of the general staff. In case the military operations call for a division of the forces into two units each of these officers will have command of an army. Both of them are said to be soldiers of great ability and full confidence is felt that they will lead the troops, of Italy to victory. General Caneva is the only living "Generale deU'eaercito," a title which is granted only in time of actual war. He won the honor by his Tripoli campaign. The first armed clash of importance was reported Sunday from Bresica, Austrian troops crossed the frontier through the Montosso pass, about four miles north of the Tonale pass, on the western border of TyroL The patrol was met by a troop of Alpine chasseurs and forced to retreat after a stiff fight The Austrians are feverishly strengthening the defenses of the Trentino.

Oats and barley folio! Information is to band that on of May all seeding was practically" lahed. Farmers win now be busy at their breaking, end the land for sun> mer fallow will be entered upon. Some who did not get their land prepared last fall, will be later than the others, but as the spring in Western Canada has been very open they will be only a few days later. At the time of writing rain would be welcome, but at seeding time, the ground contained; a splendid lot of moisture and the lack of rain at the present time will not be serious. The number of farmers who have gone into the raising of cattle has been considerably increased; and the preparation for extensive cultivated grass pastures is in evidence everywhere. The cultivation of fodder corn Is being largely entered upon in Manitoba there being upwards of 26,000 acres in corn*. In Saskatchewan there will be a large increase in the area planted, and in Alberta many of the more progressive farmers are taking hold of i t The yield varies according to the cultivation it receives, and runs front five to nine ions per acre. In soma portions of Manitoba where it has been poor for some years, success has been achieved in ripening and it i s expected that a variety will soon be developed that will provide seed for the entire West, that will at an early date give to Western Canada a fame for the growing of a marketable corn, equal to that it has now for the growth of smaller cereals. A trip through Western Canada reveals field after field of alfalfa, the growth of which in any portion of the country is now absolutely assured. When these facts are made known to> the fanners of the corn and alfalfa growing states, where their value as wealth makers is so well known, there will be no hesitancy in taking advantage of the splendid gift of 160 acres of land made by the Government of the Dominion of Canada, where equal opportunities are offered. Besides these free grant lands, there are the lands of some of the railway companies and large land companies, that may be had at low prices and. on reasonable terms. Daring the month of February a large number of in- Quirles were received, asking for farm lands. An encouraging feature of the farm land situation in Canada Is the large percentage of sales made to settlers in the country who desire to increase their holdings or to others who will take up farming In" place of different occupations previously followed.—Advertisement Awakening.

I He thanked me profusely when I -consented to go with him. "Ah, signer padrone!" he said gratetfully, "she will be so delighted. It is so very good of you." We hailed a hansom and drove across Westminster bridge to the adidress he gave—a gloomy back street off the York road, one of those narrow, grimy thoroughfares into which the gun never shines. J A low-looking, evil-faced fellow opened the door to us and growled acquaintance with Olinto, who, striking a imatch, ascended the worn, carpetless stairs before me, apologizing for passing before me, and saying in Italian: "We live at the top, stgnore, because it Is cheaper and the air is better." ,*Qtli^!flght," I said. "Quite right. !Ob- on.**S And I thought I heard my cab driving away. | It was a gloomy, forbidding, unlighted place Into which I would certainly have hesitated to enter had not my ^companion been my trusted servant, [but contrary to my expectations, the jsltting-room we entered on the top lloor was quite comfortably furnished, clean and respectable, even though traces of poverty were apparent, A cheap lamp was burning upon the table, but the apartment was unoccupied. . Olinto, in surprise, passed into the Adjoining room, returning a moment later, exclaiming: "Arm id a must have gone out to get something. Or perhaps she is with the people, a compositor and his wife, who live on the floor below. Ttiey are very good to her. HI go and And her. Accommodate yourself with a chair, signore." And lie drew the best chair forward for me, and dusted it with his handkerchief. I allowed him to go and fetch her, rather surprised that she should be well enough to get about after all he had told me concerning her illness. Tet consumption does not keep people in bed until Its final stages. Olinto returned In a few moments, saying that his wife had evidently gone to do some shopping In the Lower- Harsh. "I hope you are not pressed for time, signore?" he said apologetically. "But, of course, the poor girl does not know the surprise awaiting her. She will surely not be long." "Then 111 wait," I said, and flung myself back into the chair he had brought forward for me. "I have nothing to offer you, signor padrone," he said, with a laugh. "I did not expect a visitor, you know." "No, no, Olinto. rv*-oniy just had dinner. But tell me how you have fared since you left me." "Ah!" he laughed bitterly. "I had many ups and downs before X found myself here in London. The sea did not suit me—neither did the work. I managed to work my way from Genoa Co London. My first place was scullion In a restaurant in Tottenham Court road. Afterwards I went to the Milano, and I hope to get into one of the big hotels Very soon—or perhaps the grillroom at the Carlton." , *T11 see what I can do for yon," I said. "I know several hotel managers who might nave a vacancy." "Ah, ilgnorer be cried, filled with gratification. I f yon only would! A word from yon would secure me a good position.

"But first tell me, signore, that you will forgive me for the part I have played in this dastardly affair. I, like yourself, fell Innocently into the hands of your enemies." "My enemies!

But if you doubt your peril, watch—" and taking the rusty flre-tongs from the grate he carefully placed them on end in front of the deep old armchair In which I had sat, and then allowed them to fall against the edge of the seat, springing quickly back as he did so. In an Instant a bright blue flash shot through the place, and the irons fell aside, fused and twisted out of alt recognition. I stood aghast, utterly unable for the moment to sufficiently realize how narrowly 1 had escaped death. "Look! See here, behind!" cried the Italian, directing my attention to the back legs of the chair, where, on bending with the lamp, I saw, to my surprise, that two wires were connected, and ran along the floor and out of the window, while concealed beneath the ragged carpet, In front of the chair, was a thin plate of steel, whereon my feet had rested. Those who had BO ingeniously enticed me to that gloomy house of death had connected up the overhead electric light main with that innocent looking chair, and from some unseen point had been able to switch on a current of sufficient voltage to kill fifty men. I stood Btock-stlll not daring to move lest I might come Into contact with some hidden wire, the slightest touch of which must bring instant 'death upon me. "Your enemies prepared this terrible trap for you," declared "the man who was once my trusted servant. "When t entered into the affair I was not aware that it was to be fatal. They gave me no inkling of their dastardly Intention. But there is no time to admit of explanations now, signore," he added breathlessly, in a low desperate voice. "Say that you will not prejudge me," he pleaded earnestly. "I will not prejudge you until I've heard your explanation," I said. "I certainly owe my life to you tonight" "Then quick! Fly from this house this instant. If you are stopped, then use your revolver. Don't hesitate. In a moment they win be here upon you." "But who are they, Olinto? You must tell me," I cried in desperation. "Dio! Go! Go!" he cried, pushing me violently towards the door. "Fly, or we shall both die—both of us! Run downstairs. I must make feint of dashing after you." I turned, and seeing his desperate eagerness, precipitately fled, while he ran down behind me, ottering fierce Imprecations in Italian, as though I had escaped him. A man in the narrow dark passage attempted to trip me up as I ran, but 1 fired point blank at him, and gaining the door unlocked it, and an Instant later found myself out in the street It was the narrowest escape from death that I had ever had in all my life —sorely the strangest and most remarkable adventure. What, I wondered, did it mean? Next morning I searched up and down Oxford street for the Restaurant Milano, but could not find i t 1 asked shopkeepers, postmen and policemen; I examined the London directory at the bar of the Oxford Music hall, and made every inquiry possible. But all was to no purpose. No one knew of such a place. There were restaurants in plenty in Oxford street, from the Frascati down to the humble coffeeshop, but nobody had ever heard of the "Milano." I drove over to Lambeth and wandered through the m"*e of mean yet for the life of me I eons* I had been a doosn which eeessed to me that they might be the ideattesl hones from whtoh I had so narrowly ssoapid with my Ufa, Qradsjaliy St see that the club, and that all his pitiful story regarding Amlda waa false. He was the envoy of my unknown enemies, who had so ingeniously and so relentlessly plotted my destruction. My unknown enemies had secured the services of Olinto In their dastardly plot to kill me. With what motive? That day I did my business in the city with a distrust of everyone, not knowing whether I was not followed or whether those who sought my life were not plotting some other equally Ingenious move whereby I might go Innocently to my death. I endeavored to discover Olinto by every possible means during those stifling days that followed. The beat of London was, to me, more oppressive than the fljery sunshine of the old-world Tuscany, and everyone who could be out of town had left for the country or the sea. Defeated in every inquiry, and my business at last concluded in London, I went up to Dumfries on a duty visit which I paid annually to my uncle, Sir George Little. Each time I returned from abroad I was always a welcome guest at Greenlaw, and this occasion proved no exception, for the country houses of Dumfries are always gay in August in prospect of the shooting. "Some new people have taken Rannoch castle. Rather nice they seem," remarked my aunt as we were sitting together at luncheon the day after my arrival. "Their name Is Lelthcourt, and they've asked me to drive you over there to tennis this afternoon." "I'm not much of a player, you know, aunt. In Italy we don't believe in athletics. But If it's out of politeness, of course, I'll go." "Very well," she said. "Then I'll order the victoria for three." "There are several nice girls there, Gordon," remarked my uncle mis- In s n . Instant a Bright Blue Flash Shot Through the Place. chievously. "You have a good time, so dont think yon are going to be bored." "No tear of that" was my answer. And at three o'clock Sir George, his wife, and myself set out for that fine old historic castle that stands high on the Bognie. When we drove into the grounds we found a gay party in summer toilettes assembled on the ancient bowling green, now transformed into a modern tennis lawn. Mrs. Lelthcourt and her husband, a talL thin, gray-headed man, both came forward to greet us. They were a merry crowd. The Leltheourts were entertaining a large house party, and their hospitality was on a seals quite In keeping with the fine old place they rented. Tea was served on the lawn by the footmen, and, tired of the game, I found myself with Muriel Lelthcourt, a bright dark-eyed girl with tightlybound hair, and wearing a cotton bkmse and flnn,**a tennis skirt -I know Italy slightly," she said. 1 in Florence and Naples with moth> And shea we began to discuss picaad sculptures and the sights of Italy gwnoratty. I esseerned from her1 Chat she htm traveled ****> shw tsH saw thai both her than when moving from place to place in search of variety and distraction. We had entered the huge paneled hall of the caatle, and had passed up the quaint old stone staircase to the long banqueting hall with its paneled oak celling. It waa pleasant lounging there/in the cool old room after the hot sunshine outside, and as I gazed around the place I noted how much more luxurious and tasteful it now waa to what It had been In the days when I had visited its owner several years before. "We are awfully glad to be up here," my pretty companion was saying. "We had such a busy season In London." And then she went on to describe the court ball, and two or three of the most notable functions about which I had read in my English paper beside the Mediterranean. She attracted me on account of her bright vivacity, quick wit and keen sense of humor, her gossip interested me, and as the golden sunset flooded the handsome old room I sat listening to her, Inwardly admiring her innate grace and handsome countenance. I had no idea who or what her father was—whether a wealthy manufacturer, like so many who take expensive shoots and give big entertainments in order to edge their way Into society by its back door, or whether he was a gentleman of means and of good family. I rather guessed the latter, from his gentlemanly bearing and polished manner. His appearance, tall and erect, was that of a retired officer, and his clean-cut face was one of marked distinction. I was telling my pretty companion something of my own life, how, because I loved Italy so well, I lived In Tuscany in preference to living In England, and how each year I came home for a month or two to visit my relations and to keep in touch with things. Suddenly she said: "I was once in Leghorn for a few hours. We were yachting In the Mediterranean. I love the sea—and yachting is such awfully good fun, If you only get decent weather." The mention of yachting brought back to my mind the visit of the Lola and its mysterious sequel. "Your father has a yacht, then?" I remarked, with as little concern as I could. "Yes. The Iris. My uncle is cruising on her up the Norwegian Fiords. For us it is a change to be here, because we are so often afloat." "So you must have made many long voyages, and seen many odd corners of the world, Miss Lelthcourt?" I remarked, my Interest in her increasing, for she seemed so extremely intelligent and well informed. "Oh, yes. We've been to Mexico, and to Panama, besides Morocco, Egypt and the west coast of Africa." "And you've actually landed at Leghorn!" I remarked. "Yes, but we didn't stay there more than an hour—to send a telegram, I think it was. Father said there was nothing to see there. He and I went ashore, and I must say I was rather disappointed." "You are quite right. The town itself is ugly and uninteresting. But the outskirts—San Jacopo, Ardenza and Antigniano are all delightful. It was unfortunate that you did not see them. Was it long ago when you put in there?" "Not very long. I really don't recollect the exact date," was her reply. "We were on our way home from Alexandria." "Have you ever, in any of the ports you've been, seen a yacht called the Lola?" I asked eagerly, for it occurred to me that perhaps she might be able to give me information. "The Lola!" she gasped, and Instantly her face changed. A flush overspread her cheeks, succeeded next moment by a deathlike pallor. "The Lola!" she repeated In a strange, hoarse voice, at the same time endeavoring strenuously not to exhibit any apprehension. "No. I have never heard of any such a vessel. Is she a steam yacht? Who's her owner?" I regarded her in amazement and suspicion, for I saw that mention of the name had aroused within her some serious misgiving. That look in her dark eyes as they fixed themselves upon me wss one of distinct and unspeakable terror. What could she possibly know concerning the mysterious craft? "I don't know the owner's name," I said, still affecting not to have noticed her alarm and apprehension. "The vessel ran aground at the Melorla, a dangerous shoal outside Leghorn, and through the stupidity of her captain was very nearly lost." "Yes?** she gasped, In a half-whisper, bending to me eagerly, unable to sufficiently conceal the terrible anxiety consuming her. "And you—did you go aboard her T* "Yes,** was the only word I uttered. A silence fell between us, and as my eyes fixed themselves upon her, I saw that from her handsome mobile countenance all the light and life had suddenly gone oat tad X knew that she was In secret possession of the key to that remarkable enigma that so pussled me. / Of a sudden the door opened, and a voice cried gayly: "Why, I've been looking everywhere for you, Muriel. Why are you hidden here? Aren't you coming?" We both turned, and as she did so a low cry of blank dismay involuntarily escaped her. Next instant I sprang to my feet. The reason of her cry waa apparent, for there, in the full light of the golden I Regarded Her in Astonishment and Suspicion. sunset streaming through the long open windows, stood a broad-shouldered, fair-bearded man In tennis flannels and a Panama hat—the fugitive I knew as Philip Hornby! I faced him, speechless. CHAPTER IV. I In Which the Mystery Increases Neither of us spoke. Hornby start* ed quickly as soon as his eyes fell upon me, and his face became blanched to the lips, while Muriel Lelthcourt, quick to notice the sudden change in him, rose and introduced us in as calm a voice as she could command. "I don't think you are acquainted," she said to me with a smile. "This is Mr. Martin Woodroffe— Mr. Gordon Gregg." We bowed, exchanging greetings as strangers, while, carefully watching, I saw how greatly the minds of both were relieved. They shot meaning glances at each other, and then, as he chatted with the daughter of the house, he cast a quick, covert glance at me, and then darted a meaning look at ner—a look of renewed confidence, as though he felt that he had successfully averted any suspicions I might have held. We talked of the prospects of the grouse and the salmon, and from his remarks he seemed to be as keen at sport as he had once made out himself to be at yachting. While I was carefully watching the rapid working of his mind, Lelthcourt himself entered and joined us. Host and guest were evidently on the most Intimate terms. Lelthcourt addressed him as "Martin," and while they were talking Muriel suggested that we should stroll down to the tennis courts again, an invitation which, much as I regretted leaving the two men, I was bound to accept. Among the party strolling and lounging there prior to departure were quite a number of people I knew, people who had shooting boxes in the vicinity and were my uncle's friends. In Scotland there is always a hearty hospitality among the snorting folk, and the laws of caste are far less rigorous than tbey ere in England. I was standing chatting with two ladles who were about to take leave of their hostess, when Lelthcourt returned, but alone. Hornby had not accompanied him. Was it because he feared to again meet me? In order tb ascertain something regarding the man who had so mysteriously fled from Leghorn, I managed by the exercise of a little diplomacy to sit on the lawn with a young married woman named Tennant wile of a cavalry captain, who was one of thrhonse party. After a little time I succeeded in turning the conversation to her fellow guests, sad more particularly to the man I knew as Hornby. "Oh! Mr. Woodroffe is most amusing," declared the bright tittle wosnan. "He's always playing some practical joke or other. After dinner ho is usually the life and soul of onr party."

Around the States The Florida legislature has passed a Btringent regulation measure, prohibiting the sale of any liquor in other than sealed packages in a licensed bar room, thus cutting off beer on draught and all broken packages. It also prohibits the sale of beer or other liquor in clubs and hotels except under the same regulations as those governing saloons. Danville, 111., was voted dry by the city council on May 1, for the first time in the history of the city. The council had been called in special meeting to act on the renewal of licenses of 73 saloons which expired the midnight previous. The action of the council means that Danville will be without saloons for at least a year, until another expression of the people is had. At the recent township election, the wets were victorious by more than 1,500 majority. In the recent elections in South Dakota the greatest dry victory in 20 years was won. The temperance forces swept the state, holdiqg all of the more than 400 towns and cities heretofore dry, except two, and swinging at least 17 wet cities into the dry list.

Pinckney, Livingston County, Michigan, Wednesday, May 19, ] 9 ] S No. 21 CLARENCE CARR BADLY BURNED H y art Explosion of Powder Last Friday Nfftht Last Friday evening about 7:30 o'clock the people of, Pinckney were startled by the sound of a terrific explosion which fairly shook the stores along the Main street of the village. A personal investigation disclosed the fact that a great tragedy had been the result. Clarence Carr, eight year old son of Mr. and Mrs. S. H. Carr, who had bat recently moved into the rooms over the Meyer's drag store, was preparing to retire for the night, when he struck a match flinging it on a near-by windoweill, after he supposed it to be entirely out. The match, still burning, ignited about five pounds or more of powder lying on the window, thus causing the explosion. The child was cruelly burned about his entire body. His piercing screamB reached the ears of his mother who was still working in the kitchen, located below stairs back of the drug store. When she reached her boy's side, he was enveloped in flames. By that time a large crowd had gathered. The boy was carried downitairs where t h e flames were smothered. As the rooms were still filled with smoke, the sufferer was carried across the road to the hotel and from thence back again to the drag store where Air. Meyer, the druggist, worked over him until the arrival of the Doctors' Sigler. As we go to press this Wednesday afternoon tbe young sufferer is doing as well as can be expected and there is bright hopes of his recovery. A number of windows both upstairs and in the rooms below were blown out, but aside from the broken glass and the blackened walls near the point of the explosion no further damage was done to the building. Perhaps the strangest part of the awful tragedy is, that no one has any distinct recollection as to how the powder happened to be in the building. While Mr. and Mrs. Carr both knew of the package, they did not know what it containetl. As they were busy settling in preparation to running.a restaurant, they had placed it one side, intending to destroy it later, not dreaming that it contained anything dangerous. A PRETTY WEDDING Paul Hcndcc Mffler and Miss F e m e United In Marriage Tills Afternoon This Wednesday afternoon, May 19th, at 2:30 o'clock, at the home of t h e brides parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. C.

Gordon Gregg, locum teftens for the British a nsul, Is called upon by Hornby, the LoU's owner, and dine* uboard with him «tod hla friend. Hylton Chater. Aboard tM yacht he accidentally sees a room full of arms and Ammunition and a torn photograph of a young girl. That night the consul's safe is robbed and the Lola puts suddenly to sea. The police find that Hornby is a fraud and the Lola's name a fylae one. CHAPTER 1—Continued. "Unfortunately the telegraphic reg i e s from England are only to hand this morning," he went on, "because just before two o'clock this morning the harbor police, whom I specially ordered to watch the vessel, saw a boat come to the wharf containing a man and woman. The pair were put ashore, and walked away into the town, the woman seeming to walk with considerable difficulty. The boat returned, and an hour after, to the complete surprise of the two detectives, steam was suddenly got up and the yacht turned and went straight out to "Bea." "Leaving the man and the woman?" "Leaving them, of course. They are probably still in the town. The police are now searching for traces of them." "But could not you have detained the vessel?" I suggested. "Of course, had I but known, I could have forbidden her departure. But as her owner had presented himself at the consulate, and was recognized as a respectable person, I felt that I could not interfere without some tangible information— and that, alas! has come too late. The vessel is a swift one, and has already seven hours start of us. I've asked the admiral to send oat a couple of torpedo-boats after her, but, unfortunately, this is impossible, as the flotilla is sailing in an hour to attend the naval review at Spezla." I told him how the consul's safe had been opened during the night, and he sat listening with wide-open eyes. "You dined with them last night," be said at last. "They may have surreptitiously stolen your keys." 'They may," was my answer. "Probably they did. But with what mo tlve?" The captain of the port elevated his shoulders, exhibited his palms, and declared: "The whole affair from beginning to end is a complete and profound mystery." CHAPTER II. Why the Safe Was Opened. That day was an active one in the QUestara, or police office, of Leghorn. Detectives called, examined the safe, and sagely declared it to be burglarproof, - had not the thieves possessed j the key. Probably while I sat at dinner on board the Lola my keys had been Stolen And passed on to the scarred Scotsman, who had promptly gone ashore and ransacked the place while I had remained with his master smoking and unsuspicious, but as far as Francesco and I.could ascertain nothing whatever had been taken. The detective on duty at the railway station distinctly recollected a thin, middleaged man, accompanied by a lady in deep black, passing the barrier and entering the train which left at three o'clock for Colle Salvettl to Join the Rome express. They were foreigners, therefore he did not take the same notice of them as though they had been Italians. ' The description of the Lola, its owner, bis guest, and the captain were circulated by the police to all the Mediterranean ports, with a request that the yacht should be detained. Tet if the vessel were really one of mystery, as it seemed to be, its owner would no doubt go across to some quiet anchorage oa the Algerian coast out of the track of the vessels, and calmly proceed to repaint, rename and disguise his craft so that it would not be recognised in Marseilles, Naples, Smyrna, or any of the ports where private yachts habitually call for serposos of their own the police kept tin* affair oat of the papers, and ,afcssj ^Fjaaajr Hutcheson stepped out; of the sleciplak ear from Paris on to the slattern at Pisa a few nights aft- 1 related to him the oxstory. wanted these, that's evident" be responded, holding op the her hand-bag he end which eoatatnod his ciphers. "By Jove!" disappointed they bavebcen?" , £ * * a » % * f O I the midnight train for Leghorn. "But my own theory la that! they were searching for some paper or other that you possess." "What can my papers concern them?" exclaimed the jovial, roundfaced consul. "I don't keep bank notes in that Bale, you know. We. fellows in the service don't roll in gold as our public at home appears to think." "No. But you may have something in there which might be of value to them. You're often the keeper of valuable documents belonging t o Englishmen abroad, you know." "Certainly. But there's nothing in there just now. No, my dear Gordon, depend upon it that the yacht running ashore was all a blind. They did it so as to be able to get the run of the consulate, secure the ciphers, and sail merrily away with them." "But the man end the woman who left the yacht an hour before she sailed, and who slipped away into the country somewhere! I wonder who they were? Hornby distinctly told me that he and Chater were alone, and yet there was evidently a lady and a gentleman on board. I guessed there was a woman there, from the way the boudoir and ladies' saloon were arranged, and certainly no man's hand decorated a dinner table as that was decorated." "Yes. That's decidedly funny," remarked the consul thoughtfully. "They showed a lot of ingenuity." , "Ingenuity! I should think so! The whole affair was most cleverly planned." "You said something about an armory," "Yes, there were Maxims stowed away in one of the cabins, They aroused my suspicions." "They would not have aroused mine," replied my friend. "Yachts carry arms for protection in many cases, especially if they are going to cruise along uncivilized coasts where they must land for water or provisions." I told him of the torn photograph, which caused him some deep rejection. "I wonder why the picture had been torn up. Had there been a row on board—a quarrel or something?" "It had been destroyed surreptitiously, I think." "Pity you didn't pocket the fragments. We could perhaps have discovered from the photographer the identity of the original." "Ah!" I sighed regretfully. "I never thought of that. I recollect the name of the firm, however." "I shall have to report to London the whole occurrence, as British subjects are under suspicion," Hutcheson >.< insulate in the piazza. In the night the British Mediterranean, fleet, cruising down from Malta, had, come into the roadstead, and at the' signal from the flagship had maneuvered and dropped anchor, forming a long line of gigantic battleships, swift cruisers, torpedoboat destroyers, torpedo-boats, dispatch- boats, and other craft extending for several miles along the coast Lying still on those calm waters was a force which one day might cause nations to totter, the overwhelming force which upheld Britain's right in that oft-disputed sea. I had taken a boat out to the Bulwark, the great battleship flying the admiral's flag, and was sitting on deck with my old friend Capt. Jack Durnford of the Royal Marines. Each year when the fleet put into Leghorn we were inseparable, for in long years past, at Portsmouth, we had been close friends, and now he was able to pay me annual visits at my Italian home. He was on duty that morning, therefore could not get ashore till after luncheon. "I'll dine with you, of course, tonight, old chap/* he said. "And you must tell me all the news. We're in here for six days, and I was half a mind to run home." "Your time's soon up, isn't it?" I remarked, as I lolled back in the easy deck-chair, and gazed away at ttte white port and Its background of purple Apennines. The dark, good-looking fellow, in his smart summer uniform leaned over the bulwark, and sals, with a slight sigh, I thought: "Yes. This is my last trip to Leghorn, I think. I go back in November, and I really shan't be sorry. Three years is a long time to be away from home. You go next week, you say? Lucky devil to be your own master! I only wish I were. Year after year on this deck grows confoundedly wearisome, I can tell you, my dear fellow." Durnford was a man who had written much on naval affairs, and was accepted, as an expert on several branches^ of the service. The admiralty do not encourage officers to write, but in Durnford's case it was recognised that of naval topics he possessed a knowledge that was of use, and, therefore, he was allowed to write books and to contribute critical articles to the service magazines. He had studied the relative strengths of foreign navies, and by keeping his eyes always open he had, on many occasions, been able to give valuable information to our naval attaches at the embassies. "I go as soon as you've sailed. 1 only stayed because 1 promised to act for Prank," I said. "And, by Jove! a funny thing occurred while I was in charge—a real first-class mystery." "A mystery—tell me," he exclaimed, suddenly interested. "Well, a yacht—a pirate yacht, I believe it was—called here." "A pirate! What do you mean?" "Well, she was English. Listen, and 111 tell you the whole affair. Itll be something fresh to tell at mess, for I know how" you chaps get played ouT of conversation." "By Jove, yes! Things slump when we get no maTT But go on—I'm listening," he added, as an orderly came up, saluted, and handed him a paper. "Well," I said, "let's cross to the other side. I don't want the sentry to overhear.** "As you like—but why such mystery ?n he asked, as we walked together to the other side of the spick-andspan quarterdeck of the gigantic battleship. "You'll understand when I tell you the story." And then, standing together beneath the awning, I related to my friend the whole of the curious he said in a hard tone, striding across the deck and back again, and I saw in his eyes a strange look, half of anger, half of deep regret. Was he telling the, truth, I wondered? Some tragie romance or other concerning a woman had, I knew, overshadowed his life in the years before we had become acquainted. But the real facts he had never revealed to me. Outwardly he was as merry as the other fellows who officered that huge floating fortress; on board he was a typical smart marine, and on shore he danced and played tennis and flirted just as vigorously as did the others. But a heavy heart beat beneath his uniform. When he returned to where I stood I saw that his face had changed; it had become drawn and haggard. He more the appearance of a man who had been struck a blow that had staggered nim, crushing out all life and hope. "What's the matter, Jack?" I asked. "Come! Tell me—what alls your* "Nothing, my dear old chap," he answered hoarsely. "Really nothing— only a touch of the blues lust for a moment," he added, trying hard to smite. "Itll pass." -What I've Just told you about that yacht has upset you. You cant deny It." He started. His mouth was, I saw, hard set He knew something concerning that mysterious craft, but would not tell me. "Why are you silent?" 1 asked slowly, my eyes fixed upon my friend the officer. "I have told you what I know, and I want to discover the motive of the visit of those men, and the reason they opened Hutcheson's safe." "I admit that I have certain grave suspicion*/' he said at last, standing "You saw no woman on board T he asked suddenly* looking straight luto my eyes. "No. Hornby told me that ha and Chater were alone." "And yet an hour -after you left a man and a woman cams' ashore and disappeared! Ah! If we only h a d > description of that woman it wouljd reveal much to us." "She was young and dark-haired, so the detective says. She had a curious fixed look in her eyes, which attracted him, but she wore a thick motor vetL so that he could not clearly discern her features." "And her companion?" "Middle-aged, prematurely gray. with a small, dark mustache." Jack Durford sighed and stroked his chin. "Ah! Just as I thought," he exclaimed. "And they were actually here, in this port, a week agol What a hitter irony of fate!" "I don't understand you," I said* "You are so mysterious, and-yet yo* will tell me nothing!" "The police, fools that they are, have allowed them to escape, and they will never be caught now. Ah! you don't know them as I do! They are the cleverest pair in all Europe. And they have the audacity to call their craft the Lola—the Lola, of all names! Gordon, let me be frank and open with you, my dear old fellow. I would tell you everything—everything—If I dared. But I cannot—you understand!" And his final words seemed to choke him. ' I stood before him, open-mouthed in astonishment. "You really mean—well, that you are in fear of them—ehV I whispered. He nodded slowly in the affirmative* adding: "To tell you the truth would be to bring upon myself a swift, relentless vengeance that would overwhelm and crush me. Ah! my dear fellow, you-do not know—you cannot dream—what brought those desperate ' men into this port. I can guess—I can guess only too well—but 1 can only tell you that if you ever do discover the terrible truth—which I fear Is unlikely— you will solve one of the strangest and most remarkable mysteries of modern times."

The House "Over the Water.: I had idled away a pleasant month up in Boston, and from there had gone north to the Lakes, and it was one hot evening in mid-August that I found myself again in London, crossing St. James' square from the Sports club. I had just turned Into Pall Mall when a voice at my elbow suddenly exclaimed in Italian: "Ah, signore!—why, actually, my padrone!" And looking around I saw a thinfaced man of about thirty* dressed in neat but rather shabby black, whom I instantly recognised as a man who had been my servant in Leghorn for two years, after which he had left to better himself. "Why, Olinto!" I exclaimed, surprised, as I halted. "You—in London— eh? Well, and bow are you getting on?" "Most excellently, signore," he answered in broken English, smiling. "But It is so pleasant for me to see my generous padrone again. What fortune it is that I should pass here at this very moment 1" "Where are you working V I inquired. "At the Restaurant Milona, in Oxford street—only a small place, but we gain discreetly, so I must not complain. I live over in Lambeth, aad am on my way home." When we halted before the National gallery prior to parting I made some Inquiries regarding Annida, the black-eyed, good-looking housemaid whom he had married. . "Ah. signore!" he responded In a votes choked with emotion, dropping fate Italian, "It la the one great sorrow of my Hfe. I work hard from early morning until late at night, but what is the use when I aee my poor wife gradually fading away before my very eyes?

A schoolteacher who was about to be married visited an old friend, and naturally the coming event waa the topic of much of the conversation. The young woman, whose plana were not yet made public, thought it wise to pledge the little fouryear-old daughter of the house to secrecy. Accordingly she called little Ethel to her, told her that soon she and John were to he married, and asked her to promise that she would" keep the secret. Little Ethel went back t*» her play. while her mother and the teacher resumed their conversation.

EVERBLOOMING ROSES Everblooming roses should be at their best during the fail months. Tea roses must be fed liberally; old rotted manure, cow-manure is best but bone meal is good. Dig several big spoonfuls of fertilizer about the roots of each rose planted, replacing the mulch. Cut back the blooming branches as soon as the flowers fade; work the soil under them and give a good soaking with manure water early in September and you will have abundant bloom until frost Sharp pruning and good feeding is the sure means of getting fall roses. Keep down1 all insect pests with spray of BUlpho-tcbacco soap used according to directions on the package. A tendency to blight of buds at this season means insects at the roots. Dissolve a peck of fresh lime in a barrel of water and give tile ground a good soaking with the solution, using only clear water on top. When pruning the roses, use all cuttings four or five inches long for rooting. Insert the cutting in well-worked soil, leaying one eye above the surface, firm the earth about them, give a good soaking, and turn over them a glass fruit jar, pressing it into the ground. Draw the soil up around the Jar, but not over It keep the ground moist and leave until spring. Rose cuttings may be rooted in moist sand in any warm place, but the sand must not be allowed to dry out at any time. When the rootlets are half an inch long, transplant to soil, and give good care. They may be set in the border and a glass covering set f over them. Most cuttings consist of three or four points, or eyes, with a healthy leaf at the top. Discard every cutting that does not bold the leaf until the plant begins to grow, as the falling of this leaf means a delicate plant, even If it lives and roots. A. T. 8.

MARKET QUOTATIONS Detroit Stockyards Quarrantlned. Hoof and Mouth Disease. t.;, Wfc' PAPER CURRENCY RESTORED tC'^V, .-'&/.•• Work Has Been Carried On With Great Success and Seventy-Five Per Cent of People Are Being Fed. London-—The American commission for relief in Belgium will have provided food to the approximate value of ^65,0^0,000 for the Belgium people by the middle of August. Charitable contributions from America will have amounted to about $5,000,000 and donations from other quarters of the world will reach approximately the same total. The bulk of the food supplies representing the remaining $55,000,000 is being provided indirectly by the Belgian people themselves. Fully 75 per cent of the Belgian people are being supplied with food by the commission without recourse to charity and bread is now cheaper in Belgium than in -London. When the commission was formed last October under the chairmanship of Herbert Clark Hoover, it was estimated the total imports required to keep the population of Belgium alive would mount in value to about $50,- 000,000 before the next harvest. The rtM la the price of foodstuffs increased the amount to $65,000,000. The greatest problem was that food Mil m Belgium to those who still had resources were paid for In paper. The entire metallic currency disappeared early in the war. Paper money had no value outside of Belgium and was depreciated there. The commission therefore announced it would accept all paper issued in payment for bread. This at once restored paper currency to its full value. The cycle of credit was re-established and many thousands of well-to-do persons were saved from the bread line. Before this machinery was set up, virtually the whole population was dependent on the world's charity.

An expert in using gas for cooking, and who is an economist as well, gives these instructions: Put an iron plate over one of the burners, lay a couple of potatoes on, it, cover ft with an inverted deep pan that fitted the plate, and light the gas. The potatoes will be done in at least two-thirds of tbe usual time. Take a little pan of apples, put in with them a little water and sugar and place them to bake in tbe same way. as tbe potatoes. Those apples will come out as even and nice a brown as yon would want to sen. Then cook a dish of spaghetti. Prepare the spaghetti by putting the dish on the hot pfate, cover it with another pan. When the spaghetti is baked, cover the dish and just slip it down underneath the gas flame lor a few minutes.

(Prepared by the United State* Department of Agriculture.) I For various reasons it Is sometimes desirable to change the top of a peach tree from one variety to another. A grower may find after his orchard be- #ina to bear that he has a larger numt> er of trees of some variety than he wants; a block of trees may prove to be some other variety than the one ordered; or, for some other reason, a variety is not well adapted to the seeds of the owner. In such oases he has recourse to top-working the tree either by budding or grafting to a desirable variety. The ordinary method of shield budding is the one more commonly used tor this purpose. If the tree to be top-worked Is not more than two or three years old it is usually practicable to insert the buds directly into the main limbs well down toward the point where they leave the trunk. The Illustration shows a Triumph peach tree that was budded to the Carman variety when it was three years old, niter its crop of fruit had been removed. The points where the buds were inserted may be seen by reference to the figure. ; H the tree to be top-budded has reached the age when the bark on the main limbs has become too thick and firm to be manipulated readily for fcuddmg, H is necessary to head it back somewhat, as when the top is to be replaced with new growth of the same variety, and than insert the buds •on the new branches that develop -after the tree has been deheaded. When this course is followed the buds should be inserted in the new growth as sear the trunk as is practicable, In •order to have as large a portion of the top aa possible of the new variety. This Is also desirable on account of the subsequent management of the thinning, interplunted crops, and special practices of interest to orchardlsts and farmers. LIFTING THE STUBBORN POST Device Made by Using Strong Steel Hook, Attached to Chain as 8hown in the Illustration. A strong steel hook, such as is often u*ed for lifting bales of hay, may be converted into a lifter for light potts by attaching to it a chain as shown in the illustration, says Southern Agriculturist Dig around the post and Handy Post Lifter. drive the point of the hook Into the bottom, drawing the chain over a plank set on edge, or a stout stick.

Wisest Course hi to Have Them Made of Moderate Width With a Leaning Toward Fullness—Altering Last Year's Gowns. , la going over the season's wardrobe it is the beat to stake one's chances on the wide skirt staying with us until July or August There are dressmakers who are prophets, and who say that we shall probably wear the full skirt for two or three yeare at least There are others who say it will be oat of fashion by midsummer. The only way to be even partly safe is to compromise on moderate width with a leaning toward fullness. If your last summer skirts had long tunics, the remedy is easy. That truism has been repeated over and again for two months.

Plaiting is \ti high demand and the knife-plaited tunic, therefore, which was considered as an unfashionable garment, can be made into a skirt 4>y the addition of a deep band. It may be of satin If the skirt is of cloth, or cloth if the skirt is of silk. No one objects to these combinations nowadays. Then there is the question of the long sleeve to be answered. Suppose the gowns of last year, also the coats, had three-quarter sleeves—what then? Fortunately, fashion has brought about the use of double sleeves. The upper part is opaque, the lower part transparent; therefore one can add chuton or musHn, net or lace to a short sleeve and bring it down to the wrist. These lower sleeves are very often full as well as transparent and they are finished at the wrist with a velvet bracelet and a narrow ruffle. All these details are good to remember when yon are up against the task of altering sleeves. There has come about an odd combination of fabrics in the last month which allows a plaited skirt to be attached to a straight, long-waisted, beltleas bkmse of another fabric This Idea is very helpful to the woman who la altering clothes.

Here are two novel ways of disguising the ever-essential powder puff. The £rst can be made of ribbon about four inches wide and eight or nine inches long, the selvage edges folded and sewed together, except tor about two inches at the center, making a strip of double silk nine Inches long and two inches wide. Now gather each end up tightly and attach a silk tassel the same shade or contrasting with the color of the ribbon. Slip two ivory rings over the little bag, and you have an old-fashioned purse just like grandmother used for her pennies, but which you will use to hold In one end a powder puff, very diminutive, but quite adequate, and in the other end a mirror of the same dimensions. This little vanity bag can be carried out in the shades of the favorite evening gown, and makes a dainty and inconspicuous accessory for the carrying of the evening's ammunition. The second puff is for the dressing table, and is In the shape of a bisque ballerina, with voluminous maline skirts, who poises lightly atop of a glass powder jar. The puff is at* tached in some mysterious manner to the little bisque body, and the maline skirts act as a pretty ornament and a practical cover for the powder beneath. They can easily be renewed from time to time as they become soiled or mussed. TUB FROCKS OF EVERY KIND Charming Light Materials Are Offered for Afternoon Wear During the Warm Weather.

Alberta wool growers are looking tor 25 cent wool this year. That is the assertion made by a prominent sheepman of the Grassy Lake district "It is quite within the pale of possibility that we will receive that figure from our wool this summer/' said he, "and I would not bo surprised to aee some get more than that. 'The war has caused a great demand to be made on' the woolen mills, and they have got to have the raw material." The present season has been most propitious for the growing of wool, and the growers expect to reap a big harvest of a splendid quality. The winter has been very even, and the sheep are doing well on the ranges. No special breed of sheep is kept on Western Canada farms, and all seem to do well. The advice of those interested in the welfare of the farmers of Western Canada, advise all who can at all do so to enter upon the raising of sheep. They have proved most profitable to those who go into that industry on a scale commensurate with their means, and their farm area. The climate is perfectly adapted to the raising of sheep, they are easily kept, and as pointed out, there is good money to be made out of them.—Advertisement. DIDN'T NEED TO LOCK DOOR Successful Gambler Who Had Got Away With Money Was the One to Be Guarded. „ ,., f Ed Heffernan, famous in monologue, was traveling in the same troupe with Charley McDonald and Billy Maloney. All three loved to gamble, but could not find any games in the towns en tour. At last they were reduced to a three-handed, cut-throat game In the room which Heffernan and McDonald occupied togetneT. McDonald was 2¼ first frozen out and went to bed and to sleep. Heffernan and Maloney kept on and finally Heffernan was all in. He undressed and turned out the light, but In getting into bed he had to crawl over McDonald and aroused him. "Ed," asked the latter, "did you lock the door?" "No," responded Heffernan. "Oo lock Maloney's door. He's got all the coin." THE PROFESSOR'S STATEMENT. Prof. Aug. P. W. Schmltx. Thomas, Okla., writes: "1 was troubled with Backache for about twenty-five years.

Pincknev, Livingston County, Michigan, Wednesday, May 12, 191 No. 20 Just What the Town Knocker Ought To Do My friend, you are continually harping on t h e idea that thia town ibii't a tit place to !iv« in. You are everlastingly knocking oo t h e people, iheir cubtomH and habitb. Yon tiny they havn never been anywhere and will never learn anything. T h e idea you try to throw out is that you are atrietly up-todate, arid are entirely too wise to waste your precious time among this clasa of barbarians. It is all right for you to think that way but it is all wrong for vou to shoot off your mouth about it. If you don't like it here, hike out to the greener pastures. T h e people got along all right before you came. And they will manage to wiggle along after you are gone. We will take it for granted that you are world-traveled but most of us think you were never out of the county. We *ill also let it pass that you have been a power elsewhere, but moBt of us would bet that you have never held better than n forty-dollar a-month job in your whole life. We will get along all right, j u s t move along if things don't satisfy yon here. Gregory F. J .

Dinkel & Dunbar American Restaurant*. What disconcerts the Euroj>ean in the great American r e s t a u r a n t Is the excessive, the occasional maddening slowness of the service a .id the lack of in terest in tin- service. Touching the latter defect, the waiter is not impolite: be is not neglectful. But he is too ofteu passively hostile, or at best neutral. lie, or hh> chief, has apparently not grasped the fact that buying £~rn«t1 is not like buying a ton of coal. If the purchaser is to get value for his m o u ^ he must enjoy his meal, and if he is tu en joy his meal it must not merely be ettl ciently served, but it must be efficiently served hi a sympathetic atmosphere. T h e supreme business of a good waiter is to create this atmosphere. True, that even in the country which has carried cookery ami r e s t a u r a n t s to loftier heights than any other—I mean, of course, Belgium, the little country of little restaurauts—the subtle ether which the truly civilized diner demands Is rare enough. But in the great res t a u r a n t a of the great cities of America it Is, I fancy, rarer than a n y w h e r e else. —Arnold Bennett in Harper's Magazine.

Everything Moving The Pennsylvania railroad has decided not to seek the renewal of licenses for the sale of liquor now held in Broad Street station, Philadelphia and at the New York terminal of the railroad. Up until May of last year, three restaurants of the railroad sold booze. On May 1, 1914, the Hquor branch of the restaurant in Pittsburg was abolished, now the others must go. Since the city of Fort Smith, Ark., became dry in August last, the criminal business has hQ§n declining until the policemen are scouring the suburbs in order to find enough to do to hold their jobs. The city jail is empty, and the night jailor has been discharged. Half of the police force has been discharged since the city went dry, and other expensed have been reduced. On January 1, 1916, all advertisements of liquor will be eliminated from the billboards of the United States and Canada. The board of directors of the Poster Advertising Association, which controls the boards io 4,000 towns has so decided. No liquor contracts will be accepted after May 1, 1915, and all contracts now in existence must terminate By Dec. 13,1915. , xM. E.

Hardy bulbs should be planted as early in the fall as possible. Dealers will not begin sending out bulbs much before the latter part of September. Early orders get the best bulbs. - The best soil for bulba for the house fs a rich loam mixed with sand. If too heavy, add turfy matter to lighten it. Always choose a well-drained locality for your bulb-seed; if not naturally so, put at least six inches of broken cro-ckery. pieces of brick, old shoes, old bones, anc1 the like in the bottom of the bed. Never take bulbs out of the package the florist sends them in until you arc ready to plant them. The scries of lily bulbs often become soft and flabby when exposed to the air, because cf the evaporation of the sap, which is the life blood ot the bulb. Such bulbs are weakened, and hardly worth planting Put all bulbs in the cellar or in a dark, cool place until ready to plant. Many plants will grow well in an ordinary window in winter, but the number that will soften freely under such conditions are few and need special preparation. Many failures are due to an unwise selection of kinds, as well as to th.e extremes of heat to which the ordinary room is subjected. September is a good tlmf- to root cuttings taken from soft wo<?d plants, but the "bloomers" for the house should have been slipped and rooted \ last May or June. Cuttings taken as., late as September of the new half-1 ripened wood of many annuals and; perennials will make nice house plants j and some of these should bear flowers ' if well cared for. Hardy bulbs may be planted among shrubbery, and these will give bloom at a time when the branches of the shrubbery are bare of foliage, lighting up the grounds wonderfully. The shrubbery will in turn serve to protect the bulb flowers and foliage from disastrous effects of early, cold rain storms and rough spring winds. Calls for Considerable Skill In Arrangement— Open Psyche Knot Is General—Tresses Must Be Neat in the Back. A fashion that has been shelved ts i the parting of the hair in front or at ; the side, although there Is a definite j line of carrying the hair from left to ! right, or right to left That is/the dif- • ference between the coiffure of 18^0 and today. Sleek as the hair is, it • goes across the head sideways, especially in the back, where it is drawn up into a French twist that has all been pinned flat and straightened out, I so that there will be no bulge In the smooth line of the head. There is no fashion against the out- Ining of this flat French twist by a long ornamental comb, but that is only possible in the evening, and many fashionable women prefer to do without it There is great skill In the way the hair is brushed across the head and twisted into flatness and it is this style cf coiffure which ts the most difficult for a woman to arrange herself. It is better done when the hair is slightly marcelled, to give it body. This is not possible *if a woman has heavy long hair, which so many Americans possess, if she waves it, she also thickens it and is compelled to work out something original with the long ends. As she must dispose of these leftovers in some fashion, the-law1 allows her to roll them into an open Psyche knot on top of the head. In or ribbon hanger.

DORNER. In the potting of house plants you mix the proper soil yourself if you know the -needs of the different plants. Take some old blue grass sod and pile it up until it rots, and you will have the ideal form of decayed vegetable matter for the principal constituent of all kinds of soil for potted plants. There are three kinds of potting soil, as follows: For geraniums and the ordinary varieties of blooming plants.—Three parts loan from the rotted sod, one part well rotted manure and one part sand if the soil is heavy. For ferns, begonias and such foliage plants.—Two parts loam, one part leaf mold or peat, and one-half part sand if soil Is heavy. For palms or roses.—Two parts Clay loam and one part well rotted manure, and sand to suit the texture condition. . Use the finger test to learn if the plants need water; when the soH crumbles easily until dry it needs water; when ft cakes-readily there Is too much water; so do not give the plants a little each day, but only water when needed. Never ase a noule on the end .of a hose in watering as it causes the stream to pack the soil and injmrs the follanv Tunic Is of Plack Tulle Over Satin; Wide Girdle of Jet and Turquoise. the evening she can catch this knot down with two small ornamental i pins, preferably of jet, and in the day- ! time the small turban will fit neatly ; over the knot. | The one law that must not be ; broken in the coiffure of the day is I the straight, clean line upward from the nape of the neck to the lower edge of the crown. Short hairs are apt to, make this line broken and uneven, and as the barrette is not fashionable, the twisting sideways of i the hair must begin first there, and the loose hairs are held into place by invisible pins, or two small pins of j shell in the color of the hair. j A woman will find that by lapping one side of the hair well over on the Useful Little Novelty. writing table, and it will in a great measure help to keep the table tidy. It is^quite easy to make. A piece of stiff cardboard, measuring 7 Inches in length and 3¼ inches In width, will be> required. This card is covered on both sides with pale gray silk, the material being stretched tightly across and sewn together at the edges, which are afterwards finished off with a fine silk cord. To the lower edge three dress hooks are sewn on and they are covered with narrow ribbon twisted round and round them. For suspending this little article from a nail In the wall, a loop of ribbon with a smart rosette bow at the top is sewn on at the back. In front there are two small loops of ribbon with bows above them, into which paper- knife, pens, pencils, etc., may be slipped and held in position in the manner shown. The hooks underneath will be found very useful In many ways, and possibly the key of the clock, a small pair of scissors and a watch may be hung upon them. y V VISIT Tjjl California's Expositions via Northern Pacific Ry sod Great Northern Pacific S.8.C0.

On the other hand, during this time the market value of Bheep rose to such an extent that the smaller number in 1910 was worth 25 per cent more than the total value of the sheep in 1900. In other words, despite the rise In the value of the farm flock, fewer farmers cared to maintain one. The explanation for this, say specialists in the department of agriculture, is the prevalence of the sheepkilling dog. Exclusive of 12 western states where sheep are maintained on ranges and not on farms, it is estimated that more than 100,000 sheep are killed annually by dogs in the United States. It is impossible, however, to obtain accurate figures, for In only a small proportion of states and counties are complete records available. Moreover, the number of sheep killed by no, means measures the harm done to the Industry in this A Farm Flock Will Do Much In Cleaning Up Watte Can*. way. Persona who have seen a flock of sheep chased by docs until they drop dead of exhaustion are not likely to be encouraged to risk their money la the business of sheep raising. In a new publication of the United Btatet department of agriculture, Farmers' Bulletin $61» T h e Sheep- KUling Dog," tome suggestions are Spraying Peart, Pears require, nsja»Uy; bat little spraying.

If coding moth Is bad they need to be s p a y e d R a f t e r the bloom fella, as tor applet, Usually these two trsttasanu a n swasigb. bet If blister mttaev l^fej? given for a uniform law in all the farm states to check the raids of dogs on farm flocks. The underlying principle of the proposed law is a tax sufficiently heavy to discourage the keeping of dogs by those persons who are not willing to take proper care of them. This tax, it is said, should vary in accordance with the number of dogs kept by each individual—one male being taxed only $1.50, each additional male $8.00, and each additional female $5.00. The tax must be paid each year and a license tag obtained when the money is paid. If any dog Is found unattended without this tag he should be killed, and any dog found unattended on a farm where sheep are maintained may be killed whether he has or has not a license tag. Under any circumstances a dog caught killing or chasing sheep should be killed. A reward of $15.00 Is proposed for the identification of dogs known to be sheep killers, and such animals should be killed at once. With the money obtained from the dog tax the county should reimburse sheep owners for their lost stock, and when possible recover this money from the owners of the guilty dogs- It is, however, extremely rare for dogs to be caught in the act of killing sheep, and It is always difficult to identify positively the offenders. For this reason the law existing in several states which permits flock masters to recover damages from the owners of guilty dogs is of comparatively little service. A law based on the principles already outlined would, It is believed, greatly reduce the numbers of stray and vicious dogs, while not injuring to any appreciable extent the Interests of the true dog lover. If losses from dogs could be effectually prevented there seems to be no reason why the number of sheep kept on American farina could not be vastly increased. It hat been estimated that In the 36 farm states this increase could be 150 per cent without displacing other live stock, and some authorities have even placed it as high -as 500 per cent An increase of 150 per cent would mean in money $155,267,000. In Great Britain the value of Bheep on high-priced farm lands is thoroughly realised, and in Great Britain and Ireland there Is one sheep or lamb to every 2.5 acres of the total land area, In the farm states of the United States there is only one sheep or lamb to each 31,8 acres of land In farms. The British farmer raises hit sheep chiefly on forage-crop pastures and this undoubtedly » the best way when intensive farming la poteible.

IS BINDJNG FOR ONE YEAR Sixty-four Thousand Men Affected By Findings of Board Acting Under the Ncwiands Law. Chicago—An arbitration award advancing to some extent the rates of pay of 64,000 locomotive engineers, firemen and hostlers employed on the 140,000 miles ot line of 98 western railroads in the great area of the United States and Canada bounded on the east by the Illinois Central and the Great Lakes, was signed here Friday. A dissenting opinion was filed on behalf of the brotherhood of enginemen, in which the arbitration was branded as a failure and the Newlands law, under which it was arranged, an inadequate device for the settlement of Industrial disputes. The award, effective May 10 and binding for one year only, was frankly declared as merely postponing for a twelve-month the actual settlement of the differences involved. The railroad members of the board issued a formal statement criticising features of the regulations governing the arbitration and remarking that certain concessions, regarded as intrinsically unjust, were made for the sake of preserving peace with the employes. Judge Peter C. Pritchard, of Richmond, Va., chairman of the board stated that while in his opinion the men in certain branches of the service •were entitled to greater advances than were made, he had to make concessions in order that an award might be made, and he found much of a hopeful nature in the award. Charles Nagel, of St. Louis, former secretary of commerce and labor, who, with Judge Pritchard, represented the board of mediation and conciliation on the arbitration board, was the only member who issued no statement. He U known to have been deeply offended by the recent attack made on him as an arbitrator by officers of the brotherhoods, who pointed out that he was a trustee of the estate of the late Adolphus Busch, and that railroad securities form a part of the assets of the estate. The brotherhoods were represented on the board by F, A. Burgess, of Louisville, Ky., assistant grand 'Chief engineer of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Timothy Shea, of Peoria, 111., vice president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen tad Enginemen, The railroad members were W. L. Park, of Chicago, vice president of the Illinois Central and H. E. Bryan, of Chicago, vice president of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy.

WORMS ATTACK FRUIT TREES Great Damage Is Feared by Growers In Western Michigan. Benton Harbor. — Climbing cutworms by the millions have attacked the orchards of the Michigan fruit belt in this section and threaten to do thousands of dollars' damage. The peril is so great that fruit growers have appealed to the M. A. C. for advice and help. North of here, in orchards around Hartford and Bangor, the pest has already wrought great damage, and prominent fruit men predict that, unless the ravages of the worms are quickly checked, the entire crop in that section will be destroyed.

War is a confession of weakness, at best a necessary evil. It is not yet a thing of the past because brute instincts that should be regulated and directed are allowed to run riot War is a destroyer; peace is a builder. There has never been a war in which selfishness was not the direct or Indirect cause. If therefore follows that armament does not prevent war; standing armies and great navies do not prevent war. Preparation suggests war. Teach men the arts of peace, train men in the arts of peace, and war will disappear from the face of the earth. Temper, unregulated, is the vice of vices. It takes more courage to meet the requirements of peace than war. Few men are great enough to be always kind, always just, always patient Most men find it easy to be ugly, hateful and devilish. This year of all years in the history of the world commands us to be men, to be great in the arts of peace, to know the sacredneas of life. War means the destruction of fatherhood and motherhood; the destruction of home; the perpetuation of poverty; hell on earth. We now spend $290,000,000 a year on "preparedness for war." Isn't this the time to spend one per cent of this amount on the preparedness for peace? Therefore, I, Woodbridge N. Ferris ask that the people of Michigan set apart Tuesday, May eighteenth, as Peace day. Let the Grand Army of the Republic the Spanish-American War Veterans, the Woman's Relief Corps, the Daughters of the American Revolution, the Sunday Schools, the Churches, the Fraternal organizations and the people generally, hold such exercises as win stir the emotions of love and good will towards all men. Given under my hand and the Great Seal of the State, this thirtieth day of April in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and fifteen, and of the Commonwealth the seventyninth. WOODBRIDGE N FERRIS, London—Three merchant ships— one American, one French and one British—were destroyed Saturday, with some loss of life, by German submarines operating off the Scilly Islands and the Irish coast according to reports received here Sunday. The ships were the American oil tank steamer Gulflight from Port Arthur, Tex., for Rouen, France; the French steamer Europe, from Burry for St. Nacaire, with a cargo of coaL and the British steamer Fulgent, destination and cargo unknown. The Gulflight which left Port Arthur April 10, was torpedoed at noon Saturday og the Scilly islands, according to a dispatch received by the Central News agency. Her captain died of heart failure as result of shock and were drowned. The other members of the crew were taken off b ya patrol boat and landed. The vessel was towed into Crow Sound and beached. The Gulflight, a steel vessel of 3,- 202 tons, was built at Camden, N. J., in 1914, and was owned by the Gulf Refining company. She was 383 feet long, 51 feet beam and 30 feet deep. The Europe, according to a diBpatch from Penzance, Cornwall was attacked Saturday morning near Bishop's rock, off the Scilly islands. The submarine first signalled the crew of the Europe to leave their ship. When they had done this, the submarine shelled the steamer, which failed to sink. Uve Stock.

Walter Harris, formerly lived near Julietta in Warren township, Indiana. He now lives at Hussar, Alberta. In writing to his home paper in Indiana, he says that the, failure is the man who always blames the country. He fails to see his own mistakes, has missed his calling and is not fitted for fanning. The two seasons just past have been entirely different In 1913 plenty of rain came In June and a good crop followed, but the fall was dry and but little* snow in the winter followed by a very dry summer, and a short crop. Only those that had farmed their land properly were able to meet expenses. For example, last year the Crowfoot Farming Company, south of here, threshed from 1,250 acres 38,- 000 bushels of wheat One-half section made 26 bushels, the poorest of all This year on 1,350 acres they threshed nearly 26,000 ^bushels. Last year's crop sold at 75 cents from their own elevator. What they have sold of this year's crop brought $1.00 at^ threshing time. Bight thousand bush** els unsold would bring now around $1.25. The manager and part owner wan raised in Ohio and fanned in Washington several years. He and his wife spent last winter in Ohio. She told me a few days ago that the climate heTe was much better than Ohio. A man by the name of George Clark threshed 75 bushels of oats, 45 bush* els of barley and 35 bushels of wheat to the acre. He had 16,006 bushels of old oats as well as wheat and barley in his granaries that have almost doubled in price. He came from Washington, where he sold a large body of land around $200 that he bought around $3.00 per acre. He then refers to a failure. A large company in the eastern states, owning a large farm near Hussar pays its manager $3,000 a year. The farm has not been a success. Probably the manager's fault Mr. Harris says conditions are not as good as could be wished for, but on the ending of the war good crops, with war prices, will certainly change conditions, and it seems to me that the one who owns land that will raise 100 bushels of oats, 76 bushels of barley or 40 bushels of wheat is the one who "laughs last" The above yields may seem exaggerations to many, and are far above the average, but you should remember that the man who fails is counted In to make the average, and there are instances on record here that would far exceed the above figures. Nor is grain the only profitable thing that can be raised here. There are many fine horse ranches, some of them stocked with cayuses and bred to thoroughbreds, and others imported from the old countries. They ran on the range nearly all the year. The owners put up wild hay to feed them if the snow should get too deep for them to get the dead grass. There are several Hundred in sight of here most of the time. There are several cattle ranches north of here that have from 500 to 7,000 head of cattle. One man I know sold $45,000 worth of fat cattle this fall. He winters his cattle on farms where they have lots of straw and water, paying 75 cents a month per head, or if there is enough straw t o winter 400 or 600 head they buy the straw and water and have a man to look after the cattle.—Adver- In Derktoom.

CHAPTER XVIM—Continued. &S& It had an overwhelming effect upon me. I had been very near death, Sulfide must have ended the struggle in which I was engaged, had not this knowledge of actual and unpunished crime come to eaae my conscience. John Scoville waa worthy of death, and, being so, should receive the full reward of his deed. I need hesitate no longer. That night I slept But there came a night when I did not After the penalty had been paid and to most men's eyee that episode was over, I turned the first page of that volume of slow retribution which is the doom of the* man who sins from impulse, and has the recoil of his own nature to face relentlessly to the end of his days. Scoville was in his grave. I was alive. Scoville had shot a man for his money. I had struck a man down in my wrath. Scoville's widow and little child must face a cold and unsympathetic world, with small means and disgrace rising. like a wall, between them and social sympathy, if not between them and the actual means of living. Oliver's future faced him untouched. No shadow lay across his path to hinder his happiness or to mar his chances. The results were unequal I began to see them so^ and feel the gnawing of that deathless worm whose ravages lay waste the breast, while hand and brain fulfill their routine of work, as though ail were well and the foundations of life unshaken. I suffered as only cowards suffer. I held on to honor; I held on to home; I held on to Oliver, but with misery for my companion and a self-contempt which nothing could abate. Each time I mounted the bench I felt a tug at my arm as of a visible, restraining presence. Each time I returned to my home and met the clear eye of Oliver beaming upon me with its ever-growing promise of future comradeship, I experienced a rebellion against my own happiness which opened my eyes to my own nature and its inevitable demand. I must give up Oliver, or yield my honors, make a full confession and accept whatever consequences it might bring* I am a proud man, and the latter alternative was beyond me. I could forego pleasure, travel, social intercourse, and even the companionship of the one being in whom all my hopes centered, but I could not, of ray own volition, pass from the judge's bench to the felon's cell. There I struck the Immovable— the Impassable. I decided in one awful night of renunciation that I would send Oliver out of my life. The next day I told him abruptly . , . hurting him to spare myself . . . that I had decided after long and mature thought to yield to his desire for Journalism, and that I would start him In his career and maintain htm in it for three years if he would subscribe to the following conditions: They were the hardest a loving father ever Imposed upon a dutiful and loving son. First, he was to leave home Immediately . . . within a few hours, In tact Second, he was to regard all relations between us as finished; we were to be strangers henceforth in every particular save that of the money obligation already mentioned. Third, he was never to acknowledge this compact, or to cast any slur upon the father whose reasons for this apparently unnatural conduct were oulte disconnected with any fault of his or any desire to punish or reprove. Fourth, be was to pray for his father every night of bis Ufa before ha slept Was this last a confession? Bad I meant it-to he such? If so* it missed Its point It awed b«t did not frighten him* I had to contend with his compunctions, ae weH-as with grief and dismay. It was am boor of .struggle on his part and of implacable resolution on mine. Nothing ba* inch hardness on my part would have served me. Had I faltered oaes he woold have won me over, and the tale of my sleepless sights been repeated. 1 did not falter/and when the midnight stroke rang through the boos* Out nig%t i t separated by Its nasi A sJnheoJoaded bat haman s s s t front A W ^ B f V '•BaWBtSBBBSSSBSBav ^ B S s a W V SBS1^BPSBBJS> SJS) with solftssjs and Bereft of Che aurssshao' separation between us were that of the grave I had merited and so weakly shunned. But I was not yet satisfied. How could I Insure for myself the extreme punishment which my peace demand* ed, without bringing down upon me the full consequences I refused to accept You have seen how I ultimately answered this question. A convict's bed? a convict's isolation! But after some weeks of this, fresh fears arose. An accident was possible. For all Bela's precautions, someone might gain access to this room. This would mean the discovery of my secret. And this fence was built This should have been enough. But guilt has terrors unknown to innocence. One day I caught a small boy peering through an infinitesimal crack in the fence, and, remembering the window grilled with iron with which Bela had replaced the cheerful casement in my den of punishment, I realized how easily an opening might be made between the boards for the convenience of a curious eye anxious to penetrate the mystery of my seclusion. And so it came about that the inner fence was put up. This settled my position in the town. No more visits. All social life was over. It was meet I was satisfied at last. I could now give my whole mind to my one remaining duty. I lived only while on the bench. March 5, 1898. There is a dream which comes to me often—a vision which I often see. It is that of two broken and irregular walls standing apart against a background of roseate sky. Between these walls the figures of a woman and child, turning about to go. The bridge J never see, no* the face of the man who died for my sin; but this I see always—the gaunt ruins of Spencer's Folly and the figure of a woman leading away a little child. That woman lives. I know now who she is. Her testimony was uttered before me in court and was not one to rouse my apprehensions. My crime was unwitnessed, by her, and for years she has been a stranger to this town. But I have a superstitious horror of seeing her again, while believing that the day will come when I shall do so. When this occurs—when I look up and find her in my path, I shall know that my sin has found me out and that the end is near. 1909 0 shade of Algernon Etheridge, unforgetting and unforgiving! The woman has appeared! She stood in this room today. Verily, years are nothing with God. Added later. 1 thought ! knew what awaited me if my hour ever came. But who can understand the ways of Providence or where the finger of retributive Justice will point It is Oliver's name and not mine which has become the sport of calumny. Oliver's! Could the irony of life go further I Oliver's! There is nothing against him* and such folly must soon die out; bnt to see doubt in Mrs. Scoville's eyes is horrible in itself and to eliminate It I may have to show her Oliver's account of that long-forgotten night of crime in Spencer's Folly. It is naively written and reveals a clean, if reticent, nature; but that its effect may be unquestionable I will insert a few lines to cover any possible misinterpretation of his manner and conduct There is an open space, and our handwritings were always strangely alike. Only our e's differed, and I will be careful with the e's. Her confidence most be restored st an hazards. My last foolish attempt has undone me. Nothing remains sow bnt that sacrifice of self which'should have been made twelve years ago. CHAPTER XIX. T do not wish to seem selfish, Oliver, but tit a little nearer the window, where I can see yon whenever I open my eyes. Twelve years It along time to make up, and I have snob a little while to which to do i t - Oliver moved. The moisture sprang to his eyes ss he dldso, He had ©aught a gttmpee of the face on the pillow and the changes made in a week were Always erect his facomparable figure. And net that alone. His expression was different Had Oliver not seen him in his old likeness for that one terrible half-hour, he would not know these features, so sunken, yet so eloquent with the peace of one for whom all struggle is over, and the haven of his long rest "near". Had he been able at this moment to look beyond the fences which his fear had reared, he would have seen at either gate a silent figure guarding the walk, and recalled, perhaps, the horror of other days when at the contemplation of such a prospect, his spirit recoiled upon itself in unimaginable horror and revolt And yet who knows! Life's passions fade when the heart is at peace. And Archibald Os trander's heart was at peace. Why, his next words will show. "Oliver"—his voice was low but very distinct, "never have a secret; never hide within your bosom a thought you fear the world to know. If you've done wrong—if you have disobeyed the law either of God or man— seek not to hide what can never be hidden so long as God reigns or men make laws. I have suffered, as few men have suffered and kept their rea soft Intact Now that my wickedness Is known, the whole page of my life defaced, content has come again. 1 am no longer a deceiver, my very worst is known." "Oliver?"—This some minutes later. '.'Are we alone?" - "Quite alone, father. Mrs. Scoville Is busy and Reuther—Reuther is in the room above. I can hear her light step overhead." The judge was silent. He was gazing wistfully at the wall where hung the portrait of his young wife. He was no longer in his room, but in the cheery front parlor. This Deborah had insisted upon. There was, therefore, nothing to distract him from the contemplation I have mentioned. "There are things I want to say to you. Not many; you already know my story. But I do not know yours, and I cannot die till 1 do. What took you into the ravine that evening, Oliver, and why, having picked up the stick, did you fling it from you and fly back to the highway? For the reason I ascribed 'to Scoville? Tell me, that no cloud may remain between us. Let me know your heart as well as you now know mine." The reply brought the blood back into his fading cheek. "Father, I have already explained all this to Mr. Andrews, and now I will explain it to you. I never liked Mr. Etheridge as well as you did, and I brooded incessantly in those days over the influence which he seemed to exert over you in regard to my future career. But I never dreamed of doing him a harm, and never supposed that I could so much as attempt any argument with him on my own behalf till that very night of infernal complications and coincidences. The cause of this change was as follows: I had gone up-stairs, you remember, leaving you alone with him as I knew you desired. How I came to be in the room above I don't remember, but I was there and leaning out of the window directly over the porch when you and Mr. Etheridge came out and stood in some final debate on the steps below. He was talking and you were listening, and never shall I forget'the effect his words and tones had upon me. I had supposed him devoted to you. and here he was addressing you tartly and in an ungracious manner which bespoke a man very different from the one I had been taught to look upon as superior. The awe of years yielded before this display, and finding him Just human like the rest of us, the courage which I had always lacked in approaching him took Instant possession of me, and I determined with a boy's unreasoning impulse to subject him to a personal appeal not to add his influence to the distaste you at present felt for the career upon which 1 had set my heart Nothing could have been more foolish and nothing more natural, perhaps, than the act which followed. I ran down into the ravine with the wild intention, so strangely duplicated in yourself a few minutes later, of meeting and pleading my cause with him at the bridge, but unlike you, I took the middle of the ravine for my road and not the secluded path at the side. It was this which determined our fate, father, for here 1 saw the stick and, catching it up without further thought than of the facility H offered for whittling, started with it down the ravine. Scoville was not in sight The moment was the one when he had quit looking for Reuther and wandered away up the ravine. I have thought since that perhaps the glimpse he had got of bis little one peering from the scene of Ms crime may have stirred even his guilty conscience and sent hks iff on his purposeless ramble; but .. <vever this was, t did not see him or anybody else ss 1 took my way leisurely down towards the bridge, whittling at the stick and thinking of what I should' ear to Mr. Etheridge when 1 met him. And now for fate's final and most fatal touch! rfethlng which same tato my stand struck sse cjutte favorably. The which eeessed such a vary 1 first contemplated it began to assume quits a different aspect as the moment for It approached. By the time I had come abreast of the hollow, I was tired of -the whole business, and hearing bis whistle and knowing by it that he was very near, 1.^¾¾¾^ up Uie slope to avoid him, a£3 nurried* straight "away Into town. That la my story, father. If I heard your steps approaching as I plunged across the path into which 1 had thrown the stick in my anger at having broken the point of my knifeblade upon it, I thought nothing of them then. Afterwards I believed them to be Scoville's, which may account to you for my silence about this whole matter both before and during the trial. I was afraid of the witness stand and of what might be elicited from me if I once got into the hands of the lawyers. My abominable reticence in regard to his former crime would be brought up against me, and I was too young, too shy and uninformed to face such an'ordeal of my own volition. Unhappily, I was not forced Into it, and— But we will not talk of that, father." "Son,"—a long silence had intervened—" there is one thing more. When —how—did you first learn my real reason for sending you from home? I saw that my position was understood by you when our eyes' first met in this room. But twelve years had passed since you left this house in ignorance of all but my unnatural attitude towards you. When, Oliver, when?" "That I cannot answer, father; it was just a conviction which dawned gradually upon me. Now, it seems as if I had known it always; but that isn't so. A boy doesn't reason; and it took"* reasoning for me to—to accept—" "Yes, I understand. And that was your secret! Oh, Oliver, I shall never ask for your forgiveness. I am not worthy of it. I only ask that you will not let pride or any other evil passion stand In the way of the happiness I see in the future for you. I "This Is My 8tory, Father." cannot take from you the shame of mj crime and long deception, but spare me this final sorrow! There is nothing to part you from Reuther now Alike unhappy In ydur parentage, you can start on equal terms, and love will do the rest. 8ay that you will marry her, Oliver, and let me see her smile before I die." "Marry her? Oh, father, will such an angel marry me?" "No, hut such a woman might." Oliver came near, and stooped over his father's bed. "Father, if love and attention to my profession can make a success of the life you prize, they shall have their opportunity." The father smiled. If It fell to others to remember him as he appeared in his mysterious prime, to Oliver it was given to recall him as he looked then with the light on his face and the last tear he was ever to shed glittering in his fading eye. "God is good," came from the bed; then the solemnity of death settled over the room. The soft footfalls overhead ceased The long hash had brought the two women to the door where they stood sobbing. Oliver was on his knees beside the bed, his head burled In his arms. On the face so near him there rested a ray from the westering sun* but the glitter was gone from the eye and the unrest from the heart. No more weary vigils in a room dedl cated to remose and self-punishment No more weary circling of the house in the dark lane whose fences barred out the hurrying figure within from every eye but that of heaven. Peace for him; and for "Reuther and Oliver, hope! (THB END.) The United States baa a net p<ibl1« debt of | l . ?

Pinckney, Livingston County, Michigan, Wednesday, April 28, 1915 No. 18 Six Concept* and One Lecture Will Constitute the Course Will Be Given In July Under Auspices ot the Plnckney Ladles Reading Circle FRED M0NTA6UE COMMITS SUICIDE VOVL CXLM/k, Blows off Head With a Shot Gun Early Monday Morning The Piockney Reading Circle have arranged for a Chautauqua to be held in Piuckney at the opera house, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, July 21, 22 and 23. The chautauqua is a lecture course composed of five conce/ts and one lecture hired through the Redpath Lyceum Bureau of Chicago. The whole course of six entertainments will be offered to* II. Enthusiastic endeavor should be put forth by every individual to make the chautauqua a success, as it will be an all around benefit to the people of Piuckney and vicinity. The entertainments will be held both afternoon and evening during the three days and they will be of the best the bureau offers. This chautauqua will be the first ever held in this village but let it not be the last, through any failure on the part of the people to respond by attending the entire course this summer. People of Gregory and vicinity were very much shocked Monday to learn that Fred Montague, a farmer living in Iosco township, had committed suicide at 5:30 Monday morning by blowing off his head with a shot gun. He was forty-five years of age and leaves a wife and four children to mourn their loss. It is reported that despondency over money matters was the cauBe of his act. Europe and Temperance A pamphlet given to the recruits for the German army says: ''There is no justification for calling beer "liquid bread"; a glass of heavy beer costing 25 pfennigs has no more nourishment than a piece of cheese costing 1. pfennig, Almost all excesses and disturbances in the army are traced to drink. It is mostly beer that causes the mischief. Beer is "not the harmless drink that it is supposed to be." In 1910 at the dedication of a new naval academy the Kaiser said. "The next war will require of you, strong nerves, these are undermined by alcohol. You will ha?e an opportunity to see marine targets and the action of modern guns on ships. Then the word will be strong nerves and cool heads. The nation that drinks the least alcohol will be the win- A Knocker's Creed I believe that nothing is right. I believe that everything is wrong. I believe that I alone have the right idea. The town is wrong, the editor is wrong, the teachers are wrong, the people are wrong, the things they are doing are wrong and they are doing them in the wrong way anyhow. I believe I could fix things if they would let me. If they don't I will get a lot of other fellows like myself add we will have a law passed to make others do things the way WE want them done. I do not believe that the town ought to grow. It is too big now. I believe in fighting every public improvement a n d in spoiling everybody's pleasure. I am always to the front in opposing things and never yet have I advanced an idea or supported a movement that would make people happier or add to the pleasure of man, woman or child. I am opposed to fun and am happiest at a funeral. I believe in starting reforms that will take all the joy out of life. It's a sad world and I am glad of it. Amen.

MICHIGAN NEWS BRIEFS CRAZED BY REJECTED LOVE Crime Was Evidently Premeditated As M.an Bought Gun For Occasion— No Inquest la Thought Necessary. Battle Creek—No inquest was held Into the Bhooting affair of early Friday evening, in which Frank S. Newman, 21 years old, slew his sweetheart, Hiss Millie Glenn Havens. Newman, after an hour's conversation with Miaa Havens, in an alley near her home, on Stone avenue, shot her without warning, the bullet entering near the neck. The girl ran, and, Just as Newman fired a second shot, tell In the anna of her father, Bert J. Havens, and expired. Newman started to run away, but suddenly stopped and shot himself twice, first in the stomach and then In the mouth. He lived several minutes, during which men surrounded him and swore they would hang him if he didn't die from his wounds. Miss Havens had rejected Newman When he proposed marriage, her parents objecting to him because he was {foreigner and also because he had een in jail for breaking into a cot- "* tage at Lake Goguac. The two be* — came acquainted while both were employed in Nichols hospital last September. Newman evidently had premeditated the crime, after Miss Havens had returned a shawl which he gave her recently on her seventeenth birthday. He had evidently bought the gun for the occasion, for he was not in the habit of carrying firearms. STATE ORDER IS REVERSED Judge Smith Rules That Road Need Not Build Siding. Charlotte—An opinion of unusual importance was filed by Judge Clemeat Smith Saturday when he overturned the judgment of the Michigan railroad commission, relative to an order directing the Grand Trunk to install a switch and siding at Bellevue for the use of Zlpp brothers, lime rock dealers. The court finds that the order of the commission 1B unreasonable and If installed as requested the switch and siding would be a source of great danger. The Grand Trunk had offered to install a siding, but not as directed by the commission. An appeal will probably be taken. Preparing for Spring Fires. Marquette—Every deputy fire warden in the upper peninsula has been warned to keep especially close watch for forest fires, the lack of rainfall this spring having made everything axceedingly dry and conditions being propitious for the outbreak and rapid spread of fires. Many brush fires are reported, but so far none of these have reached standing timber. As a result of the open winter and slight rainfall since cold weather, tlnSbered and brush lands are dry as tinder, and every day without rain increases the danger. Plans for Summer Meeting.

He was in no better mood than my- .oelf to encounter insult, and what had been a simple difference between as flamed into a quarrel which reached its culmination when he mentioned Oliver's name with a taunt, which the boy, for all his obstinate clinging to his journalistic idea, did not deserve. Knowing my own temper, I drew back into the Hollow. He followed me. I tried to speak. He took the word out of my mouth. This may have been with the intent •of quelling my anger, but the tone was rasping, and, noting this and not his words, my hand tightened insensibly about the stick which the devil (or John Scoville) had put in my hand. Did he see this, or was he prompted by some old memory of boyish quarrels that he should give utterance to that quick, sharp laugh of scorn! 1 shall never know, but ere the sound <had ceased the stick was whirling over my head—there came a crash and he fell My friend! My friend! Next moment the earth seemed too narrow, the heavens too contracted for my misery. That he was dead— that my blow had killed hint, I never -doubted for an instant. I knew it, as we know the face of Doom when once it has risen upon us. Never, never again would this lump of clay, which * few minutes before had filled the Hollow with shrillest whistling, breathe or think or speak. He was •dead, dead, dead!— And I? What was I? The name which no man hears unmoved, no amount of repetition makes easy to the tongue or welcome to the ear! . . . the name which I had heard launched in full forensic eloquence so many times in accusation against the wretches I had hardly regarded as being In the same human class as myself rang In my ears as though intoned from the very mouth of hell. I could not escape it. I should never be able to escape it again. Though I was standing in a familiar scene—a scene I had known and frequented from childhood, I felt myself as Isolated from my past and as completely set apart from my fellows as the shipwrecked mariner tossed to precarious foothold on his wavedashed rock. I forgot that other criminals existed. In that one awful moment I was In my own eyes the only blot upon the universe—the sole inhabitant of the new world into which I had plunged— the world of crimer-the world upon which I had sat in judgment before I knew— What broke the spell? God knows; all I can say is that, drawn by some other will than my own, I found my glance traveling up the opposing bluff till at its top, framed between the ragged wall and towering chimney of Spencer's Polly, I saw the presence I had dreaded, the witness who was to undo me. It was a woman—a woman with a little child in hand. I did not see her face, for she was Just on the point of turning away from the dissy verge, but nothing could have been plainer than the silhouette whleh these two made against the flush of that early evening sky. As long as I could catch a glimpse of this woman's fluttering skirt as she retreated through the rains, I stood there, self-convicted, above the man I bad slain, staring up at that blotch of shining sky which was as the gate of hell to me. Not till their two figures had disappeared and it was quite cleat again did the instinct of self-preservation return, and with it the thought of flight. . But where could I fly? No spot in the whoje world was secret enough to conceal me now. I was a marked man. Better to stand my ground, and take the consequences than to act the coward's part and slink away like those other men of blood I had so often sat la judgment upon. Had. I hut followed this impulse! Had I but gone among my fellows, shown them the mark of Cain upon my forehead and prayed, not for indulgence,' bat punishment What days of gnawing misery I should have been spared! The horror of what lay at my feet drove me from the Hollow. As my steps fell mechanically into "the trail down which I ha«Vcome in innocence and kindly purpose only a I s * mmnte* a startHmj thought shot my benmbed mm*. The had shows m haste ta her tvatag! There ted ness in her movement, a dignity and a grace which spoke of ease, not shock. What if she had not seen! What if my deed was as yet unknown! Might 1 not have time for—for what? I did not stop to think; I just pressed on, saying to myself, "Let Providence decide. If I meet any one before I reach my own dodr my doom is settled. If I do not—" And I did not As I turned into the lane from the ravine I heard a sound far down the slope, but it was too distant to create apprehension, and I went calmly on, forcing myself into my usual leisurely gait, if only* to gain some control over my own emotions before coming under Oscar's eye. That sound I have never understood It could not have been Scoville, since in the short time which had passed he could not have fled from the point where I heard him last into the ravine below Ostrander lane. But, if not he, who was it? Or if it was he, and some other hand threw his stick across my path, whose was this hand and why have we never heard anything about it? It Is a question which sometimes floats through my mind, but I did not give it a thought then. I was within sight of home and Oliver's possible presence; and all other dread was as nothing in comparison to what I felt at the prospect of meeting my boy's eye. My boy's eye! my greatest dread then, and my greatest dread still! In my terror of it I walked as to my doom. The house, which I had left empty, I found empty; Oliver had not yet returned. The absolute stillness of the rooms seemed appalling. Instinctively I looked at the clock. It had stopped. Not at the minute—I do not say it was at the minute—but near, very near the time when from an Innocent man I became a guilty one. Appalled at the discovery, I fled to the front. Opening the door, I looked out. Not a creature in sight, and not a sound to be heard. The road was as lonely and seemingly as forsaken as the houje. Had tima^ stopped here, too? Were the world and its interests at a pause in horror of my deed? For a moment I believed it; then more natural sensations Intervened, and, rejoicing at this lack of disturbance where disturbance meant discovery, I stepped inside again, rewound the clock, and sat down in my own room. My own room! Was It mine any longer? Its walls looked Btrange; the petty objects of my daily handling, unfamiliar, The change in myself infected everything I saw. I might have been In another man's house for all connection these things seemed to have with me or my life. Like one set apart on an unapproachable shore, I stretched hands in vain toward all that I had known and all that had been of value to me. But as the minutes passed I began to lose this feeling. Hope, which I thought quite dead, slowly revived. Nothing had happened, and perhaps nothing would. Men had been killed before, and the. slayer passed unrecognised. Why might it not be so In my case? If the woman continued to remain silent; if for any reason she had not witnessed the blow or the striker, who else waa there to connect me with an assault committed a quarter of a mile away? No one knew of the quarrel; and if they did, who could be so daring as to associate one of my name with an action so brutal? A judge slay his friend! It would take evidence of a very marked character to make even my political enemies believe that As the twilight deepened I rose from my seat and lit the gas. X must not be found skulking lnMhe dark. Then I began to count the ticks measuring off the hour. If thirty minutes more passed without a rush from without I might hope. If twenty?—if ten?—then it was five! then it was— Ah! The gate had clanged to. They were coming. I could hear s t e p s - voices—a loud ring at the bell. I moved slowly toward the front I feared the betrayal which my ashy face and trembling hands might make. Agitation after the news was to be expected, but not before! 8o I left the hall dark when I opened the door. And thus decided my futuro. For in the faces of the small crowd which blocked the doorway I detected nothing hut oommiaeratiosL; and when a voice apoke and I heard Olivers accents surcharged with nothing mora grievous than pity, I realised that my •eeret was as yet unshared, and. seeing that no man suspected ma, I bore to declare my fufit to anyone, This sudden restoration from sound less depths into the pure air of respect and sympathy confused me; and beyond the words "Killed! Struck down by the bridge!" I heard little, till slowly, dully, like the call of a bell Issuing from a smothering mist, I caught the sound of a name. It struck my ear and gradually it dawned upon my consciousness that another man had been arrested for my crime and that the safety, the reverence and the commiseration that were so dear to me had been bought at a price no man of honor might pay. But I was no longer a man of*bonor. I waa a wretched criminal swaying above a gulf of infamy in which I had seen others swallowed but had never dreamed of being engulfed myself. I never thought of letting myself g o - not at this crisis—not while my heart was warm with its resurgence Into the old life. And so I let pass this opportunity for confession. Afterwards It was too late—or seemed too late to my demoralized judgment My first real awakening to the extraordinary horrors of my position was when I realized that circum stances were likely to force me into presiding over the trial of the man Scoville. I feigned sickness, only to realize that my place would be taken by Judge Grosvenor. a notoriously prejudiced man. If he sat, it would go hard with the prisoner, and I wanted the prisoner acquitted. I- had no grudge against John Scoville. Of course I wanted to save him, and if the only help I could now give him was to sit as judge upon his case, then would I sit as judge whatever mental torture it involved. Sending for Mr. Black, I asked him point blank whether in face of the circumstance that the victim of this murder was my best friend, he would not prefer to plead bis case before Judge Grosvenor. He answered no: that he had more confidence In my equity even under these circumstances than in that of my able, but headstrong colleague, and prayed me to get Dead, Dead, Dead—and What Was I? welL He did not say that he expected me on this very account to show even more favor toward his client than I might otherwise have done, but I am sure that*he meant it; and, taking his attitude as an omen, I obeyed his injunction and was soon well enough to take my seat upon the bench. What men saw facing them from the bench was an automaton wound up to do so much work each~Hay. The seal Ostrander was not there, but stood, an unseen presence at the bar, undergoing trial side by side with John Scoville, for a crime to make angels weep and humanity hide its head: hypocrisy! But the days went by and the inexorable hour drew nigh for the accused man's release or condemnation. Circumstances were against him—so was his bearing, which I alone understood. It as all felt it was that of a guilty man, it was so because he had been guilty in intent if not in fact He had meant to attack Algernon Etheridge. H^ had run down the ravine for that purpose, knowing my old friend's whistle sad envying him his watch. Or why his foolish story of having left his stick behind him? But the sound of my approaching steps higher up on the path had stopped him in midcareer and sent him rushing up the slope ahead of me. W) I he came back after a short circuit o. the fields beyond, it was to find his crime forestalled and by the very weapon he had thrown Into the Hollow as he went scurrying by. He had meant to attack Btherldge. It was the shook of the discovery of the body, heightened by the use ho made of U to secure the booty thus thrown in his way without crime, whleh gave him the hang-dog look we all noted. That there were other reasons—that the place recalled another scene of brutality In which Intention had been followed by act, I did not then know. It was sufficient to me then that my safety was secured by his own guilty consciousness and the prevarications into which it led him. Instead of owning up to the encounter he had so barely, escaped he confined himself to the simple declaration of having heard voices somewhere near the bridge, which to all who know the ravine appeared Impossible under the conditions named. Yet, for all the incongruities and" the failure of his counsel to produce any definite impression by the prisoner's persistent denial of having whittled the stick or even of having carried It into Dark Hollow, I expected a verdict In his favor. Indeed, I was so confident of It that I suffered less during the absence of the jury than at any other time, and when they returned, with an air of solemn decision which proclaims unanimity of mind and a ready verdict, I was so prepared for his acquittal that for the first time since the opening of the trial I felt myself a being of flesh and blood, with human sentiments and hopes. And it was: "Guilty!" * When I awoke to a full realisation of what this entailed (for I must have lost consciousness for a minute, though no one seemed to notice), the one fact staring me in the face was that It would devolve upon me to pronounce bis sentence; upon me, Archibald Ostrander, an automaton no longer, but a man realizing to the full his part in this miscarriage of Justice. Chaos confronted me, and in contemplation of it, 1 fell UL Somehow, strange as It may appear, I had thougSt little of this possibility previous to this moment I found myself upon the brink of this new gulf before the dizziness of my escape from the other had fully passed. Do you wonder that I recoiled, sought to gain time, put off delivering the sentence from day to day? I had sinned—sinned irredeemably—but there are depths of Infamy beyond which a man cannot go. I had reached that point What saved me? A new discovery, and the loving sympathy of my son Oliver. One night—a momentous one to me—he came to my room and, closing the door behind him, stood with his back to it, contemplating me in a way that startled me. What had happened? What lay behind this new and penetrating look, this anxious and yet persistent manner? I dared not think. I dared not yield to the terror which must follow thought. Terror blanches the cheek and my cheek must never blanch under anybody's scrutiny. Never, never, so long as I lived. "Father"—the tone quieted me, for I knew from Its gentleness that he was hesitating to speak more on his own account than on mine—"you are not looking well; this thing worries you. I hate to see you like this. Is It just the loss of your old friend, or—or—" He faltered, not knowing how to proceed. "Sometimes I think," be recommenced, "that you don't feel quite sure of this man Scoville's guilt. Is that so? Tell me, father?" I did not know what to make of him. There waa no shrinking from me; no conscious or unconscious accusation in voice or look, but there was a desire to know, and a certain latent resolve behind it all that marked the line between obedient boyhood and thinking, determining man. With all my dread—a dread so great I felt the first grasp of age upon my heartstrings at that moment—I recognised no other course than to meet this inquiry of bis with the truth—that is, with just so much of the truth as was needed. No more, not one jot more.. I therefore answered, and with a show of self-possession at which I now wonder: T o n are not far from right Oliver. I have had moments of doubt The evidence, as you must have noticed, is purely circumstantial." "What evidence would satisfy you? What would you consider a conclusive proof of guilt?" I told him in the set phrases of my profession. Then," he declared as I finished, "you may rest easy as to this man's right to receive a sentence of death." I could not trust my ears. T know from personal observation," he proceeded, approaching me with a firm step, "that he is not only capable of the crime for which he has been convicted, but that he has actually committed one under similar circumstances, and possibly for the same end." And be told me the story of that night of storm and bloodshed—s story which will be found lying near this, In my alcove of shame and contrition. (TO BE CONTINUED.)

IS A HARBINGER OF SPRING In Selection of Food Bird Is Governed More by Abundance Than by Choice —Insects Form Important Part of Its Diet. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Although the bluebird frequents our orchards and gardens and builds its nests in cavities of trees, there seems to be no evidence that It Is a fruit thief. Neither does the bird seem to prey upon crops. The eastern bluebird, one of the most familiar and welcome of our feathered visitors, Is a common inhabitant of nil the states east of the Rocky Mountains from the Gulf of Mexico to southern Canada. In the Mississippi valley it winters as far north as southern Illinois, and in the East as far as Pennsylvania. It is one of the earliest northern migrants, and everywhere is hailed as a harbinger of spring. It is evident that in the selection of its food the bluebird is governed more by abundance than by choice. Predaceous beetles are eaten in spring, as they are among the first Inflects to appear; but in early summer caterpillars form an important part of the diet, and these are later replaced by grasshoppers. Beetles are eaten at all times, except when grasshopper! are more easily obtained. So far as its vegetable food is concerned, the bluebird is positively harmless. The only trace of any useful product in the stomachs consisted of a few blackberry seeds, and even these probably belonged to wild rather than cultivated varieties. Following is a list of the various seeds which were found: Blackberry, chokeberry, Juniper berry, partridge berry, greenbrier, Virginia creeper, bittersweet, holly, strawberry bush, false spikenard, wild aarsapartlla, sumac (several species) rose haws, sorrel, ragweed, grass and asparagus. This list shows how little the bird depends upon the farm or garden to supply its needs and how easily, by encouraging the growth of some of these plants, many of which are highly ornamental, the bird may be induced to make his home on the premises Two species of bluebirds Inhabit the western states—the mountain bluebird and the western bluebird. In their food habits they are even more to be commended than their eastern relatives. Their insect food is obtainable at all times of the year, and the general diet varies only in the fall, when some fruit, principally elderberries, Is eaten, though an occasional blackberry Bluebird—Above Azure Blue, Throat and Breast, Cinnamon, Belly White, or grape la also relished. Grasshoppers, when they can be obtained, are eaten freely during the whole season. The new Farmers' Bulletin (No. 630) of the "Dinted States department of agriculture describes this and other American birds useful to the farmer. It may be had by dropping a post card to the Editor Division of Publications, United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. CHOLERA IS GERM DISEASE CELERY FOR SMALL GARDENS As a Rule It Is Only Moderately Profitable Crop—One of Most Delicious of Vegetables. (By L. M. BENXINUTON.) Celery is a fairly good market crop, but there are many other crops that pay better. In the famous Kalamazoo district in Michigan, where the crop is grown exclusively on hundreds of acres by experts, it is stated th;,t the average profit after rental ol land, growing and marketing expenses aTe paid does not exceed $100 per acr*. Occasionally we hear of a phenomenal crop, but as a rule celery lfi only moderately profitable. It is a fine crop for every tara^r to grow because it is one of the mo^t delicious vegetables produced. It 1* not difficult to grow celery. It require* exceedingly rich land, some commercial fertilizer and great care in cultivation and bleaching. In the Kalamazoo district, where very fine celery is grown, the soil is a very black, rich, spongy sort of loam, but good celery is grown on ^andy land and on clay loam. The ground must, however, be put into thorough cultivation »nd vo'7 Domestic Animals, Such as Dogs and Cats, ind Also Birds Are Frequent Carriers of Infection. Hog cholera generally Is recognized u a very contagious, infectious, germ disease. It is caused by an organism described as small enough to pass through any kind of filter and still retain Its disease producing power. No one has been able to identify the garm which is the specific cause of the disease. It is contained in the blood of sick animals, and is given off tn the urine; thus contaminating the yards and pern in which such animals are kept It may be carried by streams, on the shoes of persons who ener the yards or pens, or by horses of cattle from one farm to another. Dogs, cats, rabbits and birds also ate froQueat carriers of the infection. Superior Clover Honey. The quality of sweet clover honey Is ao fa* arepertor to any other that it is worth while to try It, even if the seed ooets 30 cents a round. Excellent Crop of Celery. heavily manured; in fact, it ought to be well fertilized for at least two years before being planted to celery. To prepare the ground for celery, rows should be made about four feet apart, and a light application of wellrotted stable manure and nitrate of potash placed in the furrows. The plants taken from the seed bed should be set about eight inches apart In the row and great care should be observed in placing the roots in their natural position without crushing and doubling them up. The soil then must be drawn firmly about the plants and all weeds must be kept down. Value of Agricultural Crops. According to government reportr, the value of agricultural crops of Iowa for 1914 was $350,000,000; Illinois was second with $319,000,000; Texas had $288,000,000; Kansas, $287,000,000, and Nebraska came next. Pretty good for the Mississippi valley, when three of the five highest producing states are in that section. Of course Texas gets into this class on account of its size. Indicates Poor Driver, Do you know that Jerking the bit or yelling or slashing annoys a team and indicates an incompetent driver? Good drivers are quiet, patient and kind and have little use for the whip. No horse should ever be struck unless he knows why and never unless clearly necessary. Watch for Rabbits. Keep watch over the young orchard for after heavy snow falls the rabbits may turn toward the young trees for food. Drill In the Seed, Do not broadcast small grain. If done a large portion of the seeds are not covered or are likely to be covered only slightly. More seed will be required and the chances for a good stand will not be good. Drill In the seed. That is the modern, upto- date method. Ton can't afford not to drill in your seed, for economy's sake and a larger yield at harvest time. Slugs In Home Garden, Slugs are always more or less of a nuisance tn the home garden. The poison bran mash for cutworms is a good remedy, or cabbage leaves can be dipped in dripping fat to which is added one teaspoonful of lead arsenate, and scatter about the garden. Saeka, boards, etc, are hiding places for these slugs, where they may be trapped and destroyed. Planting Tender Vegetables. Don't plant the tender vegetables until all the danger of frost la Over. If, however, frost does get the early planting, don't waste time repining*- reacted./ ALONG SIMPLE LINES NE VEST GOWNS DEVOID OP COMPLICATED DRAPERY. Picot Edge Much Used Instead of a Hem—Jet Retains Its Popularity —Organdie Embroidered In. Colors a Feature. Simplicity In line Is a strong feature, and it shows the straight path along which the winds are blowing. There is no complicated drapery or ornamentation. Naturally, the French designer uses more skill in the manipulation of material and effects are usually simpler than the methods when the American sewing woman goes to copy them. One of the well-known Fifth avenue importing houses in New Torfc said that it was no easy matter to rush out new gowns these days. The trick they turned in other times of taking an order for a frock on Saturday afternoon and delivering it on Wednesday morning was too difficult to contemplate now. The fashion for putting a picot edge everywhere has gained in importance, and when there are yards and yards of it on one> frock time WORKING IN FANCY LEATHER Most Economical of Any Blouse is Chiffon, Which May Be Combined With the Most Tailored of Street Suits, or Used to Lend a Festive Tone to -Fancy Costumes—This Blouse Is Trimmed With Black Dots Embroidered on White Chiffon, and Red Embroidery. must be allowed for such work. And yet this trick of putting the tiny pointed edge instead of a hem contributes to the seeming simplicity of a frock. Jet Is used in quantities, as everyone expected. Jenny likes it well and puts it under tulle more than she does over it. There is a strong feeling for the styles of 1840 and 1870, both of which call for quantities of lace and artificial flowers. Often the latter is used under the former or to loop it up into the festoons which the empress of France liked. That 1840 pointed basque, with its straight decolletage, also copied by Eugenie to show her lovely neck and shoulders, is used by*Caillot as well as by other houses. There is also the medieval decollet-, age, which Is cut in a straight rine across the collar bone and which is distressingly ugly. Cheruit and some of her followers almost discard the deep decollete line and bring the frocks well up on the chest The square front with the high back Is smart Although the high collar is reckoned as a^flrst fashion, the beet houses Bent over the neck which la opened in a V in front, outlined by a handkerchief collar in a soft material.

Innumerable Pretty Designs for House Decorations May Bo Easily and Quickly Made. The woman who Is skilled in needlework or handicraft of any sort will need no preliminary training for making small pieces of leather work suitable for howse decoration. First of all take a stationery folder, far instance. It may be made any desired site, though each end should be made to fold inwardly to touch the center line to make the top cover. A good grade of soft black morocco leather, with black satm lining; would be a good combination, and the edges could be stitched with black ailk thread or else bound with leather glued in place: Corner pieces should also be cut and glued into place. These can be fancifully cat with an eyelet punch, and with the aeaatanee of a pair of manicure scissors many artistic designs can be produced. For the holder use a piece of leather of any desired color, say fifteen by thirty inches square. Fold the ends toward the center and crease along the folded edges, after which fit the pasteboard to what will be the bottom of the folder. Make the lining, bat before attaching it stitch two satin pockets on each end* which win be folded under with the overlapped corners. Bind the edges in any preferred Btyle. If a monogram is desired cut the Initials with a small eyelet punch and place satin back of it. This should be shown on one of the overlapped pieces. WHAT FASHION HAS CHANGED Silhouette of Skirt Most Noticeable- Modification of Clinging Draperies is Most Apparent The most radical change Is in the silhouette of the skirt From the narrow clinging skirt of last year to the wide flaring, circular model of today Is a long step, both figuratively and literally. The change, nevertheless, is not so difficult as it may appear at first sight. For example, the long tunic skirt can be charmingly disguised and renovated by the addition of a wide band of embroidery or of goods of some contrasting color at the hem. This hand will give tunics the necessary length and flare"of thjrnew skirts. The draped skirt often has in it material enough to be entirely recut, or it may be lengthened from the waist by the addition of a new, wide girdle or yoke attached to the fullest part. For the most scant and clinging of last year's skirts only one renovation Is possible, but it is a charming one. Using the skirt as a foundation, bjiild on this a series of ruffles or flounces, or veil it with a frill, flaring overskirt.

The paper baa always been dated Thursday and printed on Wednesday. We find there are many who send news, etc., on Wednesday, thinking from the date of the paper that we print on Thursday, thus causing the copy to reach us too late for publication. So much confusion resulted, that we decided to change the date from Thursday to Wednesday, as should have been done long ago. All correspondents should send their news so as to reach this office not later than Monday night and "advB," will not be taken on Wednesdays. We must have the "advs." in order to make the paper a paying proposition, but we absolutely refnse to accept them hereafter on Wednesdays, as we find it impossible to set up the whole paper, all the "advs.," print same, fold and mail out in one short day.

FIFTEEN KILLED IN • CAR ACCIDENT F R E I G H T T R A I N CRASHES INTO TROULEY ON CROSSING IN DETROIT. NOVICE MOTORMAN IS HELD Passengers Are Trapped In Closed Street Car and Are Crushed and Mangled Beyond Recognition. Detroit—Trapped in a Fort street- River Rouge car handled by a novice motorman, 15 persons, 1*1 of them women, were ground to death under the trucks of a freight train of the Detroit, Toledo & lronton railroad Wednesday afternoon at 5:15 o'clock at the crossing on West Jefferson avenue, near Dearborn avenue. Surgeons, police autos and ambulances were quickly rushed to the scene ox the accident and 26 persons, badly injured, were taken to the Solray hospital. Following the Questioning of the car men at headquarters Wednesday night the statement was given out that the accident was due to the failure of Motorman Westover to see the "•top" signal of the conductor. The conductor said that he had signalled to "come ahead" while the car was still standing, but that when he saw the proximity of the train he reversed the signal. The car was crushed under the trucks of the forward freight car of a train of 25 loaded with soda ash and plgiron which was being pushed north from Zug iBland. The train, according to the crew members, was traveling at a rate of four and a half miles an hour. With the car standing near the crossing while the conductor went on ahead to make sure of a clear track, the motorman had an unobstructed view and could easily see the train as it backed over the River Rouge bridge. Every passenger on the south-side of the car could see the oo-comlng train. Then a thrill of horror ran through the passengers as they felt their car move forward Into the path of the train. Many sat transfixed as the forward freight car bore down upon them while others shrieked and tried to fight their way out of the vestibules. With a crash the train struck the oar squarely In the middle and swept it to the Bide of West Jefferson avenue. The motorman jumped and several men on the rear platform escaped by leaping. The freight carried] the car upright, with its cargo of screaming, fighting men and women struggling to escape; and crushed the corner of the Delray railroad station with one end of the car and the candy store of O. Climer, 2382 West Jefferson avenue, with the other. Several elec trie light poles came down at the same time. Twenty feet farther on the car dropped upon its side in front of the freight car, and then began the horrible grinding and crushing of human bodies in the tangled steel and wood of the car, which ended 200 feet from the crossing.

Smith, aaorotary of the Maake«oifc<feanovia* latarurbaa Promotion Co, in Chicago—Lockout of 16,000 union carpenters assumed serious proportions Saturday, tieing up operations valued at more than 130,000,000 on 4,- 000 buildings in Chicago being erected by 1,200 contractors, and throwing out of employment 125,000 wage earners, thousands of whom had no connection with the building Industry itself. The Lumber Dealers' association announced that 5,000 men would be discharged pending settlement of the strikes and lockouts, These men have had no part in the contentions between the Building Construction Employers' association and the union forces which refused to bind themselves to a three-year contract designed to prevent sympathetic strikes and their attendant evils. The board of arbitration was ordered to meet by Gov. Edward F. Dunne. The board does not have authority to settle labor disputes, but is empowered to investigate a»d make public the findings. The contractors, it was announced, have withdrawn their previous offer of a wage Increase and if the carpenters returned to work it would be at the old rate of 65 cents an hour. The carpenters demanded 70 cents. The contractors offered a two and onehalf cent Increase for the last 18 months- of the proposed three-year agreement The contractors are pledged and bonded to maintain their stand until every union in the structural trades comes to terms. The terms include an anti-strike agreement covering a period of three years. The union leaders declared that the strike would not end until the demands of the men for an Increase In wages had been granted.

ASK NEW TRIAL FOR NEGRO Attorney for Kimbrough Claims to Have Evidence Clearing Client. Saginaw—Developments that are considered of importance occurred in the Charles Kimbrough case Saturday. Affidavits have been secured that, it is believed, will clear the Negro of the charge of slaying and burning the body of Rose Laundry, 8 years old, in a candy factory for which he was recently sent to Marquette prison for life. Attorney Robert J. Curry has secured an affidavit of a man in Saginaw county, who knew the Negro, that he was in Harry's picture theatre at 6:30 o'clock the night of January 3 and saw Kimbrough watohlng the pictures. Kimbrough has repeatedly stated he was at this picture show, but because he had been in Saginaw a short time he couldn't tell any one who was at the same show. This would provide a clear alibi for the Negro, as the girl did not leave her home to go to the McCray restaurant until about 6:30 o'clock. Curry, on this Information, will ask a new trial NEW PLAN FOR CALIFORNIA Bill for Non-Partisan Stats Elections Passed By Legislature.

Hansen is a farmer living near Claret, Sauk., and as an old resident of Minnesota, takes strong exception to some of the articles appearing in American papers disparaging the true conditions in Western Canada. The "Cottonwood Current" of Cottonwood, Minn., an important weekly paper in the southwestern part of the state, recently published a letter from Mr. Hansen; which is interesting reading. In his letter Mr. Hansen makes a splendid case for Western Canada against those who seek' to deter farm* ers in the States from settling in Can* ada. He says: "The district in which we live is a fair comparison to any other district In the country, made up mostly of settlers from the States. The majority here consists of Americans from Minnesota, Iowa and the Dakotas, with a few Canadians and an odd Englishmen. We have been here eleven years, ever since this part of the country was settled, and the majority have dotfe well. If they have not, it is certainly not the fault of the country. "There has not been a crop failure In this district since settled. This year was the poorest, caused by lack of rain, although a fair estimate of wheat is about twelve bushels per acre, average, and oats about ten. Some farmers got as much as twentyfive bushels of wheat per acre, and we all got good prices. "The laws of Canada are nearly the same as those of Minnesota, and we enjoy the same privileges. "So far as the European war Is concerned, we suffer to a certain extent as all the world does. Canada is giving a helping hand to her Mother Country, and we American-Canadians firmly believe it is Canada's duty to do so. I have not heard one American- Canadian who has expressed a different opinion. Canada is not compelled to send her soldiers. The service rendered is all voluntary service. "The accusation that old settlers are considered undesirable citizens and are forced out of business, even in danger of being 'mobbed at their own fireside,' is all false, a mere fabrication in the mind of badly Informed correspondents. There are a few who have been discovered carrying letters, others papers and plans to prove them spies, and whose object is to conspire against the government. These have Justly been arrested. Such a class of people cannot be considered good citizens, whether living in Canada or in the United States. "Some people are failures wherever they are, and as an excuse for failure in their country It may seem easy to put the blame on the Canadian people and the Canadian government Fact is, thousands of people from the United States are emigrating to Canada at the present time, which shows they ere not afraid of the Canadian govern* ment 'The government is giving away, free of charge, provision through the winter to farmers in certain districts affected by the drought, and is also •ending seed grain to those in need of help. This Is very different from driving settlers away from their own homes. 1 have always observed that the people who lore their Mother Country most are those who make the Vest eltSse& s of their adopted country. The glorious 'Stars and Stripes' win always stand for what is good and nobia to us, though we live la a neighbor country where we also enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.'

He neither turned nor moved at any one's entrance, but left It to Mr. Black to do the honors and make the best of a situation, difficult, If not Inexplicable to ail of them. Nor could it be seen that any of these men—city officials, prominent citizens and old friends, recognized his figure or suspected his identity. Beyond a passing glance his way, they betrayed neither curiosity nor interest, being probably sufficiently occupied in accounting Jtor their own presence in the home of their once revered and now greatly maligned compeer. Judge Ostrander, attacked through his son, was about to say or do something which each and every one of them secretly thought bad better be left unsaid or undone. Yet none showed any disposition to leave the place; and when, after a short, uneasy pause during which all attempts at conversation failed, they heard a slow and weighty step approaching down the hall, the suspense waa such that no one but Mr. Black noticed the quick whirl with which Oliver turned himself about, nor the look of mortal anguish with which he awaited the opening of the door and his father's entrance among them. No one noticed, I say, until, simultaneously with the appearance of Judge Ostrander on the threshold, a loud cry swept through the room of "Don't! don't!" and the man they had barely noticed, flashed by them all, and fell at the judge's feet with a smothered repetition of his appeal: "Don't, father, don't!" been summoned there, and knowing, gazed earnestly at these two faces. Twelve years of unappeased longing, of smothered love, rising above doubts, persisting in spite of doubts, were concentrated into that one instant of mutual recognition. The eye of the father was upon that of the son and that of the son upon that of the father and for them, et least in this first instant of reunion, the years were forgotten and sin, sorrow and on-coming doom effaced from "their mutual consciousness. Then the tide of life flowed back into the present, and the Judge, motioning to his son to rise, observed very distinctly: "Don't Is an ambiguous -word, my son, and on your lips, at this Juncture, may mislead those whom I have called here to hear the truth from us and the truth only. You have heard what hap pened here a few days ago. How a long-guarded, long-suppressed suspicion-** o guarded and so suppressed that 1 had no Intimation of Its existoncc even, found vent at a moment of public indignation, and I heard yon, you, Oliver Ostrander, accused to my face of having in some boyish fit of rage struck down the man for whose death another has lone stooe paid the penalty. This yon have already been told." "Yea,** The word cut sharply through the silence; but the fire with which the young man rose aad faced them all showed him at his best "But surely, no person present believes ft No one can who knows you aad the principles in which I have been raised. This fellow whom I beet as a boy has waited long to start this damnable report 8urely he win get no htwins; from unprejudiced aad intelligent men." "The police have listened to him. Mr. Andrews, who Is one of the gentlemen present, has heard his story and yon see that he stands here silent my son. And that is not aU. Mrs. Scoville, who has loved you like a mother, longs to betters in your innocence, and cannot" A low cry from the ban. It died away unheeded. "And Mr. Black, her husband's counsel*' contused the father, in the firm, low tones of one who for many long days and nights had schooled himself for the duty for this hour, "shares he? reeling. He has tried not to; but he does. They hare found evidences you know them; proofs which might mot hare amounted to much had It not been for the one mischievous fact which hast undermined punUe confidence and given point to these attacks. I refer to the life we here led and the we the voice of Algernon Etheridge, demanding vengeance for his untimely end. It will not be gainsaid. Not satisfied with the toll we have both paid in these years of Buffering and repression— unmindful of the hermit's life I have led and of the heart disappointments you have borne, its cry for punishment remains insistent Gentlemen —hush! Oliver, it is for -me to cry 'Don't' now—John Scoville was a guilty man—a murderer and a thief— but he did not wield the stick which killed Algernon Etheridge. Another hand raised that No, do not look at the boy. He is Innocent! Look here! look here!" ,And with one awful gesture, he stood still—while horror rose like a wave and engulfed the r o o m - choking back breath and speech from every living soul there, and making a silence more awful than any sound— or so they all felt till his voice rose again and they heard: "You have trusted to appearances; you must trust now to my word. I am the guilty man, not Scoville, and not Oliver, though Oliver may have been in the ravine that night and even handled the bludgeon I found at my feet in the recesses of Dark Hollow." Then consternation spoke, and muttered cries were heard of "Madness! I. is not we who are needed here but a physician!" and dominating all, the ringing shout: "You cannot save me so, father. I hated Etheridge and 1 slew him. Gentlemen," he prayed in his agony, coming close into their midst "do not be misled for a moment by a father's devotion." His lifted head, his flashing eye, Then, each man knew why he had -drew every look. Honor confronted them In a countenance from which all reserve had melted away. No guilt showed there; he stood among them, a heroic figure. Slowly, and with a dread which no man might measure, the glances which had just devoured his young but virile countenance passed to that of the father. They did not leave it again. "Bon?" With what tenderness he spoke, but with what a ring of desolation. "I understand your effort and appreciate it; but It is a useless one. You cannot deceive these friends of ours—men who have known my life. If you were in the ravine that night so was I. If you handled John Scovllle's stick, so did I, and after you! Let us not struggle for the execration of mankind; let it fall where it rightfully belongs. It can bring no sting keener than that to which my breast has long been subject Or—" and here his tones sank, in a last recognition of ail he was losing forever, "if there Is suffering In a once proud man flinging from him the last ragjtf respect with which he sought to cover the hideous nakedness of an unsuspected crime, it is lost in the Joy of doing Justice to the son who would take advantage of circumstances to assume his father's guilt" But Oliver, with a fire which nothing could damp, spoke up again: "Gentlemen, will you see my father so degrade himself? He has dwelt so continually upon the knowledge which separated us a dosen years ago that he no longer can discriminate between the guilty aad the innocent Would he have sat In court; would he have uttered sentences; would he here kept his seat upon the beach for all these years, If he had borne within his breast this secret of personal guilt? No. It is not in human nature to play such a part I was guilty—aad I fled. Let the act speak for itself. The respect Cue a y father must act be taken from him." Confusion and counter-confusion! What were they to think! Alanson Black, aghast at this dread dilemma, ran over in his mind an that had led him to accept Oliver's guilt as proved, aad then, la Immediate opposition to i t the details of that old trial aad the • Judge's consequent life; and, voicing the helpless contusion of the others, observed with forced firmness: ~We have beard much of Oliver's wanderings in the ravine on that fatal aight but nothing: of yours, Judge Ostrander. It is not enough for you to say that you were there; you must prove i t " T h e proof is in my succumbing to the shock of hearing Oliver's aame sssoeiated with tads crlsae. Had be The gesture accompanying this oath was a grand one, convincing in its fervor. Its majesty and power. But facta are stubborn things, and while most of those present were still thrilling under the effect of this oath, the dry voice of District Attorney Andrews was heard for the first time, in these words: "Why, then, did you, on the night of Bela's death, stop on your way across the bridge to look back upon Dark Hollow and cry in the bitterest tones which escape human lips, 'Oliver! Oliver!' You were heard to speak this name, Judge Ostrander," he hastily put i t as the miserable father raised his hand in lneActual protest. "A man was lurking in the darkness behind you, who both saw and heard you. He may not be the most prepossessing of witneBB, but we cannot discredit bis ctory." "Mr. Andrews, you have no children. To the man who has, I make my last appeal Mr. Renfrew, you know the human heart both *»a a father and a pastor. Do you find anything unnatural in a guilty soul bemoaning its loss rather than its sin, in the spot which recalled both to his overburdened spirit T" "No." The -word came sharply, and it sounded decisive; but the ones which followed from Mr. Andrews were no less so. "That is not enough. We want evfc dence, actual evidence, that you are not playing the part your son ascribes to you.'V The judge's eyes glared, then suddenly and lncomprehensively softened till the quick fear that his mind as well as his memory had gone astray, vanished in a feeling none of them could have characterized, but which gave to them all an expression of awe. "I have such evidence," announced the judge. "Come." Turning, he stepped into" the hall. Oliver, with bended head and a discouraged mien, quickly followed. Alanson Black and the others, casting startled and inquiring looks at each other, brought up the rear. Deborah Scoville was nowhere to be seen. At the door of his own room, the Judge paused, and with his hand on the curtain, remarked with unexpected composure: "You have all wondered, and others with you, why for the last ten years I have kept the gates of my house shut against every comer. I am going to show you." And with no further word or look, scarcely even giving attention to Oliver's anguished presence, he led them into the study and from there on to that inner door known and talked of through the town as the door of mystery. This he slowly opened with the key he took from his pocket; then, pausing with the knob in his hand, he said: "In the years which are past but two persons beside myself have crossed this threshold, and these only under my eye. Its secret was for my own breast. Judge what my remorse has been; judge the power of my own secret self-condemnation, by what you see here." And, entering, he reached up, and pulled aside the carpet he bad strung up over one end of the room, disclosing amid a number of loosened boards, the barred cell of a condemned convict "This was my bed, gentlemen, till a stranger coming into my home, made such an acknowledgment of my sin impossible !" have undone us. To the sssetlon, 'Why these barrtsrsr I can find no but the one wafts* ends this nyeeLf, I ask you to de Out of the past through his crime aad met my own, I should have been prepared for such) a conrtngortffy, aad sot whelmed by * * "No, before O c i r CHAPTER XVIII. Dark Hollow. Later, when the boards he had loosened in anticipation of this hour were aU removed, they came upon a packet of closely written words hidden la the framework of the bed. It read as follows: Whosoever lays hands on this MS. win already be acquainted with my crime. If he woald ~atso know its cause aad the full story of my hypocrisy, let him read these lines written, as it were, with my heart's blood. I loved Algernon Etheridge; I shall never have a dearer friend. His odd ways, his leak, possibly ungainly, fi> ure crowned by a head of scholarly refinement his amiability when pleased, his irascibility when crossed, formed a character attractive to me from Its very contradictions; and after my wife's death aad before my son Oliver reached a companionable age, it was la my intercourse with this man 1 found my most solid satisfaction. Yet we often Quarreled. His dogmatism frequently ran counter to my views, aad, being myself a man of quick aad violent temper, hard words sometimes passed between us, to be forgotten the next minute la a handshake, or some other token of mutual esteem. These dissensions—if such they could be called—never took place except in the privacy of his study or We thought too much of each to display our differences of opinion abroad or even la the presence of Oliver; aad however heated our arguments or whatever our topic we latailabiy parted friends, ttU one fateful aight. O Ood! that years of repentance. / sell-hatred and secret immolation can never undo the deed of an infuriated moment Eternity may console, but it can never make me innocent of the blood of my heart's brother. We had had our usual wordy disagreement over some petty subject in which he was no nearer wrong nor 1 any nearer right than we had been many times before; but for some reason I found it harder to pardon him- For the first time In our long acquaintance, I let Algernon Etheridge leave me, without any attempt at conciliation. If only I had halted there! If, at sight of my empty study, I had not conceived the mad notion of waylaying him at the bridge for the hand-shake 1 missed, I might havo been a happy man now, and Oliver—But why dwell upon these mlght-have-be^ns! What happened was this: Disturbed in mind, and finding myself alone in the house, Oliver having evidently gone out while we two were disputing, I decided to follow out the impulse I have mentioned. Leaving by the rear, I went down the lane to the path which serves as a Bhort cut to the "bridge. That I did this unseen by anybody is not so strange when you consider the hour, and how the only person then living in the lane was, in all probability, in her kitchen. It would have been better for me, little as I might have recognized it at the time, had she been where she could have witnessed both my going and coming and faced me with the fact. John Scoville, In his statement, says that after giving up his Bearch for his little girl he wandered up the ravine before taking the path back which led him through Dark Hollow. This was false, as well as the story he told of leaving his stick by the chestnut tree in the gully at foot of Ostrander lane. For I was on the spot, and I know the route by which he reached Dark Hollow and also through whose agency the stick came to be there. Read and learn with what tricks the devil beguiles us men. I was descending this path, heavily shadowed, as you know, by a skirting of closely growing trees and bushes, when just where it dips into the Hollow, 1 heard the sound of a hasty foot come crashing up through the under- "Gentlemen, Will You 8~o My Father So Degrade Hlmselfr brush from the ravine and cross the path ahead of me. A turn In the path prevented me from seeing the man himself, but as you will perceive and as I perceived later whea circumstances recalled it to my mind, I had no need to see him to know who it was or with what intent he took this method of escape from the ravine into the fields leading to the highway. Scoville's stick spoke for him, the stick which I presently tripped over and mechanically picked up, without a thought of the desperate use-to which I was destined to put i t Etheridge was coming. I could hear his whistle on Factory road. There was ao mistaking i t It was unusually shrill one aad had always been a cause of Irritation to me, but at this moment It was more; it roused every antagonistic Impulse within me. He whistling like a galliard, after a parttag which had dissatisfied me to such aa extent that I had come all this distance to ask his pardon aad see his old smile again! Xfterward, long afterward, I was able to give another Interpretation to his show of apparent self-satisfaction, but then I saw nothing but the contrast it offered to my own tender regrets, aad my Mood began, to boll and my temper rise to such a point that recrimination took the place of apology when la another mowe came together in the open between the end of the bridge and Dark Hollo* - (TO BS CJ0NTWUC1>.)

"It la. forbidden to declare that no* quarter shall be given." So says The Hague regulations. That Is a more modern rule than you would think. The duke of Wellington said that he understood that the defenders of a fortress taken by storm had no right to quarter, although he, himself, did not as a rule adopt such a cruel practice. A century ago when a feeble garrison stubbornly held out In a feebly fortified place against a force manifestly superior and apparently able to take it eventually, It was usually refused quarter. There was an attempt to justify the refusal by a doctrine of "futile resistance"—that he who uselessly resisted and caused assaulting or besieging forces unnecessary loss of life did not deserve to have his own life spared. But that doctrine has been rejected. Carried to Its logical conclusion it would mean that every member of a weaker force in any kind of armed contest could be killed.—William M. Collier In the Forum. For Defective Thermometer. When the mercury thread in a thermometer tube separates Into two portions, with a gap between, the simplest remedy and one that usually proves satisfactory on the first trial, is as follows: Place the thermometer In the end of a long stocking, the bulb being towards the toe, and whirl at arms length as rapidly as possible. Centrifugal force Is thus produced, the effect of which Is to force the detached portion of mercury back until It joins the thread nearer the bulb.

Bamboo Poles Form the Trellises for the Rambling Roses, White, Pink and Red. Iris Is Planted Between the Archer. FOR SUNLESS WINDOWS By EBEN E. REXFORO. It often happens that the woman who loves plants has no sunny window in which to grow them and under the impression that they cannot be successfully grown without sunshine, she does not attempt their cultivation, thus depriving herself of a great deal of pleasure, especially In the winter. There*ls no reason why the lover of plants should be without their company in the winter, provided of course that the temperature of the room can be regulated to keep out the frost, and some of the plants that can be grown In windows that are without sunshine are among our most desirable ones for house culture. First on the list I would place the Boston fern. Nearly everyone Is familiar with this plant It require! only the ordinary attention. Give It a soil of garden loam with enough coarse, sharp sand worked into it to make it friable, a liberal but not an excessive amount of water and a temperature several degrees above the frost point and anyone may be reasonably sure of success with it It does not do very well, however, in steam-heated, gas-lighted rooms. No plants will flourish under such conditions, though many will live on in* definitely under them. The aspidistra is about the only plant I would dare to recommend to those living In rooms heated and light* ed aa mentioned above. Tola plant has almost an iron constitution, which enables it to withstand Influences that wouM aeon kill moat plants. U seems to care nothing for the sunshine and therefore n excellently adapted to cultivation in snnless rooms. If not subject to the debilitating effect of steam heat it will make a most luxuriant growth and its jich dark green leaves will afford a vast amount of pleasure. While it is able to withstand unfavorable conditions better than other plants, it is always grateful for good care and the plants that are cared for well are always the ones that give the best satisfaction, keep in mind. English ivy is an old favorite. Twined up around the window It J* a beautiful sight to see, I know of no vine having more attractive foliage. PLANTS THAT GROW IN SANDY SOIL Good plants for sandy soil are verbenas, asters and phlox These are all annuals and do particularly well in this coil. Latrix, biasing star or gay feather Is a capital plant for sandy soil although it does well in any good soil. It is a hardy perennial with long spikes of purple 'and rosy purple flowers, blooming from July to September, growing from three to four feet high. APPLE EPIGRAMS The apple is the aristocrat of foods and the best medicine. The climate and condition that are best for apples are best for man. Apples are an antidote for drink and tobacco. Apples carry the pure food stamps of the great physician. The man in the orchard is always a good citizen. TRY AMARANTHUS The Amaranthus is a much ses> lected plant It can be made more effective than the canna or the Celadlum. With It color-schemes in red, and red and yellow, and red, yellow and green, tan very easily be worked out. Give it a trial Cyclamen plants should be rested during the summer months, not allowed to dry off entirely, bat watered sparingly and kept as dormant as possible. A •eawrtJfw!

" 'Is your love true?* the girl asked softly. " 'As true,' the man answered in low, passionate tones, 'as the delicate flush on your cheek.' "'Oh—er—ah,' the girl stammered hurriedly, 'isn't the—er—don't the roses smell sweet?'" One Sense Not Under Control.

The ground breakb sharply up to high plateaus and rugged mountains and the jungle throws a green barrier across the way. The man who would find his way up the river must be prepared for rapids and cataractB, for careful paddling, where a mistake means disaster, and for long portage and toilsome climbs. Therefore few men attempt the journey, although the "perfect waterfall," five times as high as Niagara, is there to reward their effort. Mr. Warfield describes such a trip and what he found at the end of it. "Here was a mighty river, pouring with a force that suggested terrible wrath, over a precipice 800 feet high. down into what seemed unfathomable depths. "The top of the fall is slightly reentrant and measured at the time of my vlait 400 feet across. The distance from there to the first obstruction is '741 feet, while the total drop is 882. It is therefore nearly five times as hi^h as Niagara, but its finer proportions, its concentration in this one tremendous phenomenon, make it incomparably more grand. It is the perfect waterfall, the most beautiful manifestation of Nature's lavishness and splendor."—Outing. COLT DISTEMPER oafae,e?f la HteiLd. AAtMrto m the biooo ea4 ezpeto senef of meofaaejamper.

FOBS, who has been three times elected chief executive of the state of Mass. The announcement of his changed views was made by ex-Governor Foas at exercises at the Franklin Union, in Boston recently. "I have been thinking that it's about time for me to stop voting for the licensed saloon/' said Mr. Foes. "So long as I make it a rule to have my superintendents and foreman discharge men who are addicted to liquor, how inconsistent it is for me to support an open saloon near my manufacturing establishment, where the men have to go back and forth two or three times a day. "This question of prohibition is a very large one. It may be the most important social, political and moral question of today. Certainly it is an economic question. From an economic viewpoint, why shouldn't we have National Prohibition? "Let us learn this lessen from the European war. Russia's efficiency has been improved thirty per cent as a result of the prohibition of vodka, according to a report of Winston Churchill. If we want to be as efficient as other nations we must have prohibition. I have come to this conclusion purely from an economic consideration." U. E. S. idant. In this eaose.

LaRue and Stephen G. Teepie were united in marriage and in commemoration of that event, they celebrated their golden wedding on the evening of April 10th at their home on Main street, Pinckney, Michigan. About fifty guests were present, including old friends and neighbors and several from out of town; among the latter were Mr. Teeple's sister, Mrs. Sarah Doty. of Niagara Falls and Mr. and Mrs. Neynaber of Detroit. Tellow and white was the color scheme for the entire decorations; tulips, jonquils, smilax and white roses being used in profusion throughout the house. A delectable two-course' luncheon was served after which a program of music, speeches and songs was delightfully rendered under the able supervision of G. W. Teepie as tostmaster. Many beautiful gifts were left, proving the love and esteem in which the couple are held, and at a late hour the guests departed wishing Mr. and Mrs. Teepie many more happy anniversaries.

Miss Msttis Jaokaea visitor a last Play Well Staged The Senior Class of the Pinckney High School produced their play "A Black Heifer" last Friday evening with great credit to themselves, after having overcome almost nnsurmountable difficulties in the re-arrangement of the caste after unforseen events had made that re-arrangement necessary. Three characters were substituted in the caste and these persons, Duaue Lavey, Herman Vedder aud Gregory Devereaax learned their respective parts in less than two days time. The extra effort made necessary on the part of these young men was much appreciated by the class. The characters they impersonated were certainly well taken. The roles assumea by the rest of the caste were exceedingly good causiug roar after roar of laughter from the comedy and real cringes from the tragedy parts of the drama Father Coyle staged the play. To him great praise is due as the real success of a play rests not alone with the actors but a great deal with the ability of the person who trains the caste. Lillian Given's six-piece orchestra of Detroit rendered several fine musical selections between the acts of the play and also furnished the music for the dauce following. Attendents at both the play and dance enjoyed an evening's entertainment which will not soon be forgotten. A Saloonkeeper's Tejtiiwy A former Red Wing (Minn.) saloonkeeper, Mr. Lohmao, now engaged in the clothing- business in McHenry, North Dakota, recently visited .his old friends in Red Wing. While insisting that he still saw nothing wrong in having a glass of beer at home and disclaiming any pretensions to being a total abstainer, he gave some excellent testimony to the value of prohibition. "One reason why we are not anxious to have a saloon in our town is that it would draw the kind of people from other placeB that we do not want; we like a good, clean town." "It is said so often that prohibition does not prohibit, Mr. Lohman," remarked a reporter. "If a man goes to McHenry and wants a drink, can he get it?" "No, not for love nor money," replied Mr. Lohman with emphasis. "There is no liquor to be had in our town except for medical purposes." "Then a crowd of young men cannot start out and have a gloriously good time in McHenry?" "I should say they cannot," replied Mr. Lohman, "because there is no place where they can get the liquor. There has been no bootlegging during the last few years. The law is being enforced rigidly and there is no evidence anywhere of drnnkednesa." M. E S.

NATIONAL GUARD PSOUO OF REPORT REPORT OF UNITED STATES ARMY OFFICERS IS ENCOURAGING. PORT HURON COMPANY LEADS Experts Declare That Pereonnel of Organization Is Good and Equipment 1» Splendid. NATIVE ATTEMPTS LIFE OF EGYPTIAN SULTAN Lansing—In spite of the rather unfavorable conditions that have prevailed for the recruiting of the National Guard, the report of the United States army ahows that the guard of the Wolverine state has shown a most satisfactory increase numerically and marked improvement in efficiency. The report of the regular army on the Michigan National Guard is giving the officers of the organization much satisfaction. In 1914 the total strength reported was 2,445. This year the total reached 2,835. There also is shown an increase in the attendance for inspection, the total for this year being 2,- 705 as against 2,399 for the year previous. Company C, 3rd infantry, of Port Huron, was the banner company with sixty-nine men, all present for inspection. Co. F, 3rd infantry, Saginaw, was next with sixty-six all of whom were present. Co. I, 3rd infantry, Manistee was third with 67 men, one of whom was absent. Among the other companies mentioned were B, 3rd infantry, Bay City; D, 2nd infantry, Big Rapids; I, 2nd, Muskegon; and D, 1st infantry of Detroit. The 3rd regiment gets the banner mention for attendance. The 2nd infantry was second among the regiments and the 1st was third. These figures show the regiments of the Michigan National Guard are below the standard fixed by the war department, but it is believed, in view of the splendid, increase shown that more time will be given to bring the organizations up to their full quota. General Kirk haa pointed out, however, that the communities where companies are located must five attention to the support of the organizations if they desire to keep the organizations. The report of the regular army inspecting officers shows the personnel of the organizations is good and the equipment in splendid condition. The campaign to interest employers has resulted in 350 pledging themselves to the support of the guard by encouraging men to join and freely giving leave of absence for guard service. HUSSEIN KEMAL.

GERMANS TO PAY FOR FRYE American Vessel Sung by Cruiser on High Seas Is Case for Prize Court. P, M, GETS MAJ. VANDERCOOK Popular National Guard Officer to Be Personal Agent of Receiver. Lansing—Major Roy C. Vandercook, commander of the national guard artillery battalion and well known as a newspaper man, resigned as adjutantgeneral of the state to enter the service of the Pere Marquette railroad, effective April 12.

Washington—Germany's intention to compensate the owners of the American ship William P. Frye, sunk on the high seas with her cargo of wheat by the commerce raider Prinz Eitel Kriedrich, haa been formally communicated to the United States government. Ambassador Gerard cabled a note handed him by the Berlin foreign office in reply to the recent American communication submitting a claim for an indemnity of $228,059.54 on behalf of the Frye's owners. The foreign office upholds without qualification the legality under international law of the raider's action in sinking the Frye, and bases the liability of the German government to pay indemnity solely upon the old PrussianjAmerlcan treaties of 1799 and 1828, which provide that contraband belonging to the subjects or citizens ~bf either party cannot be confiscated by the other and may be detained or used only in consideration of payment of the full value. In view of this stipulation, the note says, of course, the American owners must be compensated" for their loss. It is pointed out, fre^ever, that the capo of necessity must &o into a prize court, that questions of ownership, cargo, destination, etc., may be formally established. Interurban Jitneys Are Started.

HAS SUNK FOURTEEN SHIPS Qorman Converted Cruiser After Thrilling Experiences 811 pa Past Hostile Fleet Into American Port Sunday. Newport News, Va.—The German converted cruiser Kronprinz Wllhelm the elusive raider of commerce in the South Atlantic, slipped into this port Sunday and asked for fuel and provisions. Many times reported destroyed, the former North German Lloyd liner had evadfid hostile warships for eight months, while she sent 14 merchantmen to the bottom. Her officers said she was forced to steal her way past four allied cruisers off the Virginia Capes to reach this refuge. "We got in without being seen by the enemy and we can get out the same way," declared her commander, Lieutenant Captain Paul Thierfelder, formerly navigating officer of the German cruiser Karlsruhe, in a statement Sunday. When she dropped anchor, the Kron- Prinz Wllhelm had less than 25 tons of coal and scanty provisions for the crew of 500 men and 61 prisoners from British merchant ships sunk in the south Atlantic. Of the 14 ships that the 15,000 ton cruiser sank, nine were British, four French and one Norwegian. The value of these ships and their cargoes, officers of the Wilhelm estimated at $7,000,000. When the Wilhelm arrived off Thimble shoals, after passing in the Virginia capes early Sunday, two United States submarines, the G-l and D-2 met her. The appearance of the submarines created considerable surprise among the crew, but there was no demonstration as the little vessels convoyed the German raider to quarantine, where Dr. Maccafferty, United States quarantine officer, boarded her. Commander Thierfelder reported 66 of the crew and prisoners were ill with beri-beri and requested that they be taken to a hospital. The Wilhelm followed in the wake of the Interned Print Eitel Friedrich, which arrived here a month ago, after thrilling and effective operations for the German arms.

As her anxious eye sought the place he Indicated, her face flushed crinlson with evanescent joy. Just where the open ground of the gully melted again Into the forest, the figure of a man could be seen moving very quickly. In another moment It had disappeared amid the foliage. "Straight for the station," announced Mr. Sloan; and, taking out his watch, added quickly; "the train is not due for 15 minutes. He'll catch it" 'The train south r "Yes, and the train north. They pass here." Mr. Black turned a startled eye upon the guide. But Reuther's face was still alight She felt very happy. Their Journey had not been for naught He would have six hours' start of his pursuers; he would be that much sooner in Shelby; he would hear the accusation against him and refute it before she saw him again. But Mr. Black's thoughts were less pleasing than hers. He had never had more than a passing hope of Oliver's innocence, and now he had none at all. The young man had fled, not in response to his father's telegram, but under the impulse of hie own fears. They would not find him in Shelby when they returned. They might never find him anywhere again. A pretty story to carry back to the judge. As he dwelt upon this thought his reflections grew mo*e and more gloomy, and he had little to say till he reached the turn where the two men still awaited them. In the encounter which followed no attempt was made by either party to disguise the nature of the business which thus had brought them to gether. The man whom Mr. Black took to be a 8helby detective nodded as they met and remarked, with a quick glance at Reuther: "So you've come without him! I'm sorry for that I was in hopes that I might be spared the long ride up the mountain." Mr. Black limited his answer to one of his sour smiles. "Whose horse is this?" came In peremptory demand from the other man, with a nod toward the animal which could now be seen idly grazing by the wayside. "And how came it on the road alone?*' "We can only give you these facts," rejoined the lawyer. "It came from Tempest lodge. It started out ahead of us with the gentleman we had gone to visit on Its back. We did not pass the gentleman on the road, and if he has not passed you he must have left the road somewhere oh foot He did not go back to the lodge." "Mr. Black—" "I am telling you the absolute truth. Make what you will of it His father desires him home, and sent a message This message this, young lady undertook to deliver, and she did deliver it with the consequences I have mentioned. If you doubt me take your ride. It is not an easy one, and up his arms to lift her from her horse at the door of the hotel. But his refusal was peremptory. "Ill be back In just five minutes," said he. And without waiting for a second pleading look, he lifted her gently off and carried her in. When he returned, as he did In the time specified, he had but one word for her. "Gone," said he. "Thank God!" she murmured with a smile. Not having a smile to add to hers* the lawyer withdrew. Oliver was gone—but gone north. CHAPTER X V I I . The Curtain Lifted. It was dark when" Mr. Black came into Shelby, and darker still when he rang the bell of Judge Ostrander's house. But it was not late, and his agitation had but few minutes in which to grow, before the gate swung wide and he felt her hand in his. She was expecting him. There was no necessity for preliminaries; and he could ask at once for the Judge and whether he was strong enough to bear disappointment Deborah's answer was disconcerting. "I've not seen him. He admits nobody. When I enter the library, he retreats to his bedroom. I have not even been allowed to hand him his letters. I put them on his tray when I carry in his meals." "I am afraid he never will hear from Oliver. The boy gave us the slip in the most remarkable manner. 1 will tell you when we get inside." When she had heard him through, she looked about the room they were In, with a lingering, abstracted gase the only man remaining at the lodge i „ „. _, , ,» . , . _._ is deaf as a post** H e W a * P o l r »t l , | e *•*•" but In I Dlfwhole . ferent Direction Now. post "Mr. Black has told the story," averred the guide.

"I am disappointed," she murmured in bitter reflection to herself. "I did not expect Oliver to clear bim^lf, but I did expect him to face his accusers if oxfly for his father's sake What am I to say now to the judge T "Nothing tonight In the morning we will talk the whole subject over. f must first explain myself to Andrews, and, If possible, learn his intentions; then 1 shall know better what to advise:'' **Did the offtoai yon met on your return from Tempest lodge follow you t o S h e f t y r **1 have not seen hint" T h a t is bad. He followed Oliver." "It wssvto he expected." tOUrer ia la Ososster ^ be that under this same roof, and only separated from them by a partition. there brooded another human being helplessly awaiting a message which would never come, and listening, but how vainly, for the step and voice for which he hungered, though they were the prelude to further shame and the signal for coming punishment. So strong was this thought In both their minds, that the shadow deepened upon both faces, as though' a presence had passed between them; and when Mr. Black rose, as be very soon did, it was with an evident dread of leaving her alone with this thought. They were lingering yet In the ball, the good night faltering on their lips. when suddenly their eyes flashed together in mutual question, and Deborah bent her ear toward the street An automobile was slowing up— stopping—stopping before the gates! Deborah turned and looked at Mr BlaQk. Then the bell rang. Never had it sounded so shrill and penetrat lug. Never had it rung quite such a summons through this desolate house. Recoiling, she made a motion of entreaty. "Go," she whispered. "Open! I cannot" j Quickly he obeyed. She Leard him pass out and down the walk, and through the first gate. Then there came a silence, followed by the open Ing of the second gate. Then, a sound like smothered greetings, followed by quickly advancing steps and a voice she knew: "How is my father? Is he well? I cannot enter till 1 know." It was Oliver!—come from some distant station, or from some other line which he had believed unwatched. Tumultuous as her thoughts were, she dared not indulge in them for a mo ment, or give way to gratitude or any other emotion. There were words to be said—words which must be uttered on the Instant and with as much im* periousness as bis own. Throwing the door wide, she called down the steps: "Yes. he is well. Come in, Mr. Os> trander, and you, too, Mr. Black. Instructions have been given me by the Judge, which I must deliver at once. He expects you, Oliver," she went on, as the two men stepped in "He bade me say to you immediately upon your entrance that much as he would like to be on hand to greet you, he cannot see you tonight For tonight at least, and up to a certain hour tomorrow, you are to keep your own counsel. When certain persons whose names he has given me can be gotten together In this house, he will Join you, giving you your first meeting in the presence of others. Afterwards he will see you alone. If these plans distress you—if you find the delay hard, I am to say that it is even harder for him that it can be for you. But circumstances Compel him to act thus, and he expects you to understand and be patient." Young Ostrander bowed. "I have no doubt of the facts," he as sured her, with an unsuccessful effort to keep his trouble out of his voice. "But as my father allows me some explanation, I shall be very glad to hear what has happened here to occasion my imperative recall." Mr. Black glanced at Deborah, who was slipping away. When they found themselves alone together, Oliver's manner altered. "One moment," said he, before Mr Black could speak. "I should like to ask you first of all, If Miss Scoville is better. When I left you both so suddenly at Tempest Lodge, she was not well. I—" "She is quite recovered, Mr. Ostrander." Involuntarily their glances met in a question which perhaps neither desired to have answered. Then Oliver re marked Quite simply: "My haste seemed warranted by my father's message. Five minutes—one minute even is of great importance when you have but fifteen in which to catch a train." "And by such a route!" "Ton knowmy route" A short laugh escaped him. "I feared delay—possibly the interference—but why discuss these unimportant matters! But your reason for these hasty summons —that is what 1 am ready now to hear." And be sat down, but in such a way as to throw his face very much into the shadow. This was a welcome circumstance to the lawyer. His task promised to be hard enough at the best Black night had not offered too dark a screen between him and the man thus suddenly called upon to face suspicions the very shadow of which is enough to destroy a life. The hardy lawyer shrunk from uttering the words which would make the gulf imaginatively opening between them a real, if not impassable one. Bomethinm-mhout the young man appealed to him—something apart from Ids relationship to the judge— something inherent in himself. Per- Jt wee the misery he betrayed it wee the memory of Reuther's faith in him and now w him next twt mm the face of auy duty, and It robbed him of confidence. But he gave no proof of in la In voice or manner, as pacing the floor In alternate approach and reireat, he finally addressed the mououleba figure he could no longer Ignore. "You want to know w_hat has happened here? If you mean lately, 1 shall have tb explain that anything which has lately occurred to distress your father or make your presence here desirable has its birth in events which date back to days when this was your home and the bond between yourself and father the uaual and natural one." Silence in that shadowy corner! But this the speaker had expected, and must have exacted even if Oliver had shown the least intention of speaking. "A man was killed here in the old day»—pardon me if I am too abrupt— and another man was executed for this crime. You were a boy—but you must remember." He paused. One must breathe between the blows he Inflicts, even if one ia a lawyer. "That was twelve years ago. Not so long a timt as has elapsed since you met a waif of the streets and chastised him for some petty annoyance. But both events, the great and the little, have been well remembered here in Shelby; and when Mrs. Scoville came amongst us a month or so ago, with her late but substantial proofs of her husband's innocence in the matter of Etheridge'a death, there came to her aid a man, who not only remembered the beating he had received as a child, but certain facts which led him to denounce by name, the party destined to bear at this late day the onus of the crime heretofore ascribed to Scoville. That name he wrote on bribes and walls; and one day, when your father left the courthouse a mob followed him, shouting loud words which I will not repeat, but which you must understand were such as must be met and answered when the man so assailed is Judge Ostrander. Have I said enough? If so, raise your hand and I will desist for tonight" But no movement took place in the shadow cast by Oliver's figure on the wall before which Mr. Black bad paused, and presently a voice was heard from where be"sat, saying: "You are too merciful. I do not want generalities but the naked truth. What did the men shout?" "You have asked for a fact, and that I feel free to give you. They shouted. 'Where is Oliver, your guilty son, Oliver? You saved him at a poor man's expense, but we'll have him yet.' You asked me for The words, Mr. Ostrander." "Yes." The pause was long, but the "Yes" came at last. Then another silence, and then this peremptory demand: "But we cannot stop here, Mr. Black. If I am to meet my father's wishes tomorrow, I must know the ground upon which I stand. What evidence lies back of these shouts? If you are my friend—and you have shown yourself to be such—you will tell me the whole story. I shall say nothing more." Mr. Black was not walking now; he was standing stock-still and in the shadow also. And with this space and the double shadow between them. Alanson Black told Oliver Ostrander why the people had shouted: "We will have him yet." When he had quite finished, he came into the light When he had quite finished he came into the light. He did not look in the direction he had avoided from the first, but his voice had a different note as he remarked: "I am your father's friend, and I have promised to be yours. You may expect me here in the morning, as I am one of the few persons your father has asked to be present at your first interview. If after this interview you wish anything more from me you have only to signify it I am blunt, but not unfeeling, Mr. Ostrander." A slight lift of the hand, visible now in the shadow, and with a silent bow he left the room. In the passage-way he met Deborah. "Leave him to himself," said he. "Later, perhaps, you can do something for him." But.she found this quite impossible. Oliver would neither eat nor sleep. When the early morning light came, he was sitting there still. • * • •» • * • Ten o'clock! and one of the five listed to be present had arrived—the rector of the church which the Ostranders had formerly attended. He was ushered into the parlor by Deborah, where he found himself received not by the judge In whose name he had been invited, but by Mr. Black, the lawyer, who tendered him a simple good morning and pointed but a chair. There was another person in the room—e young man who stood in one of the windows, gaming abstractedly out at the line of gloomy fence rising him and the street He had not tamed at the rector's mad the latter had failed tj <Tp * * WOMAN WOULD NOT GIVE UP Though Sick and Suffering; At Last Found Help in Lydia EL Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

At a meeting last Friday night by-laws were adopted and the name Brighton Welfare Association chosen. The slogan "Boost Brighton" is being used and we sincerely hope it will be the means of bearing much fruit. The new officers are: President, James Collet; vice-president, Dr. J. D. Singer; secretary, E. R. Hyne; treasurer, W. G. Cook. Regular meetings will be held the firat Friday of every month.— Brighton Argna. We have or ditf have one of those organizations in Pinckney but lor the paat year the officers have been aaleep or have forgotten that the d o b ever existed.

Two miles of state road will be built by Putnam Township this year, one mile commencing at the Base line on the Dexter road ancj running north and the other mile commencing at the Sprout school and running north. Why is it that one town grows and prospers year after ytai while but a fdw miles away another town, jusi ab well located and with just as great natural advantages, simply btaguates year in and year out? It is- because in the first town there is civic pride, its people work together iu harmony, have ambition and seek the best interest !of all.

But the study of every motor car on the market showed that the lubricating needs of all standard makes were identical. olarine •»<•* JT is a recognized maxim in strategical problems that a desert frontier is the one most easy to defend and most formidable to assault Mountains, rivers and seas have their difficulties, and are serious obstacles for an invader to tackle, but for impracticability they do not compare with even a narrow zone of barren land, where food and water are nonexistent and where bad ground makes transport either laborious or altogether impossible. Battlefields, like the sites of capitals, are not made by man, but are the outcome of geographical position. The chief lines of communication of the world, and consequently the warpaths of nations, are, in, like manner, determined by the lie of the land and its physical features. So long, for instance, as Egypt and Palestine are not under one rule, and so long as there is a likelihood of a recurrence of hostility between the powers that control these two countries, the desert barrier that separates them will be the scene of conflict. Being a narrow neck of land joining two continents, and being the only land link between two of the most fertile regions of the earth, it has always been, and will always be, an important line of communication. For the same reason it must retain its significance from a military standpoint. It chances that the link between Egypt and Asia is cursed by the blight of aridity. But the same providence that caused this area to be useless to man provided the more favored region of the Kile valley with an inimitable protection from envious foes. A hundred miles of waste is a better guard against invasion than any other natural feature; it is far less costly than modern fortifications and probably more effective. Yet, in spite of nature's bulwarks, this area has probably been the scene of more hostility than any other desert in the world. Inexorably, as it were, the silent wilderness has been disturbed by successive waves of migratory hordes and by the continual passing of military expeditions. There is no rest for this land; it seems to attract tragedy. The desert, Egypt's ancient barrier against intruding foes, has proved to be a formidable breakwater on to which many an enemy has hurled himself. Their efforts have been met with varying success. Although it has proved of no avail against determined and systematic attacks, it has caused a hostile advance on Egypt to be looked upon as a big undertaking. It would bt» foolish to treat such an obstacle lightly, bnt with sufficient initiative its difficulties can be successfully surmounted. It is noteworthy that desert frontiers to fertile lands also probably entail the responsibility of wild tribes to be kept at bay. The wilderness that fringed ancient China was a barrier against distant foes, but the nomads actually inhabiting that desert were the source of so much deafer that they might be considered the direct cause for the building of the Great WaH. In the same way tb* earJr inhabitants of the Nile valley did not consider nature's battlements snJBeaaat to repel the wfld nomadic tribes " " ""* swept In from arid so rasd them, 86 Xbey sapnlethis harrier by Unas of __ wtaiee ran from the MeaV ft» She Gmlf of labors of the ancients, the hostile desert being backed by the canal, which has rightly been described as "the most formidable military obstacle ever constructed by man." Invading foes must accomplish the toil of the desert march, they must arrive In some sort of "fitness," attack carefully prepared positions, succeed in breaking the defensive and cross the canal before they can rely on getting food and water. There is probably no newer method of dealing with the problems of supply on such a campaign than those employed by Alexander, Napoleon or Ibrahim Pasha. The more adaptable and the better acclimatized to the peculiar conditions are the forces in use the more simple does the problem become. To move bands of Bedouin to and fro across such country would be only asking them to live their everyday lives. No doubt many of the troops being employed by the Turks on the present venture are quite at home in such surroundings, can live hard and travel hard, but there cannot be a very great number of them. Numbers, it should be noted, have an abnormal influence in the East, where bluff plays such a large part in life. The Arab, in his own intertribal wars, depends largely upon giving an exaggerated idea of his numbers and strength. The issue of a desert engagement is often decided without a blow being struck, those in the minority giving in without resistance to those in the majority. It seems doubtful that the true desert warriors—the Bedouin—are being employed in any large extent Had the big tribes of Arabia been in perfect sympathy with the Turks they might have constituted a formidable array. But the children of Ishmael have not changed; they are still as "unstable as water." 'Even of those who have been commandeered, with their camels, large numbers have deserted and disappeared into the heart of the wilderness. So the great reserve of desert soldiery remains disused. The successful issue of a desert campaign depends upon a phenomenal ability to tackle the problems of supply and of transport The organization of these must be perfect in detail and absolutely reliable in action. In the old days, although military operations took much longer to come to a head than they do now, when the antagonists actually joined battle, the result was quickly decided. The decisive battles of the world have generally been decided between dawn and dusk. This is especially the case in Arab tactics. Sudden attack and swift retreat is the secret of desert warfare, for there is no time to waste. It may be recalled that In all former conflicts on the Egypto-TuFkish frontier the issue has not long hung in the balance. Alexander entered Egypt a week after he left Gaza, a distance of 120 miles. Napoleon only spent six and a half days on the road between hi* base at KatJeh and his arrival before Gaza. The advance guard of the Turks, In 1800, under Taher Pasha, left E! Arish on April 2 and actually took Balahieh. oa the Jarther side of the present canal, before the 12th of the month. Bat hi that ease, ft is true, there was flb serious opposrtSoa to J zbslr sjsvasjoa. BIRH SOBO M Q M ? S so* tJan Is sihtsath? the maxfca of that that the retreat which followed on the recent attack on the canal Is without precedent in the history of all former wars for the mastery of the eastern gates of Egypt. As regards the problem of transport, we have an object lesson in Napoleon's Syrian expedition of 1799. He concentrated about 14,00« picked men—13,000 Infantry and 1,000 cavalry—he inured his troops to the hardships they were about to undergo, and he foamed a special camel corps for scouting. He did not even attempt to move his artillery by land, but essayed to send it by sea. His plan for the transport of this comparatively small force entailed the services of 2,000 camels to carry water tor the three days' journey between Katieh and El Arish, where the supply was to be replenished. Another 1,000 camels bore provisions for the 14,000 men and 3,000 horseB for 15 days. Besides this, 3,000 mules were set apart solely for the conveyance of baggage. This was no light undertaking, even for such a | genius as Napoleon, and, as we know, it ended in a retreat which may be considered the turning point of his career. Consider for a moment what an army of animals must be necessary for the transport of the ^5,000 or more men who are said to be concentrated on the confines of Palestine. Camels will doubtless be employed in enormous numbers, both on account of their adaptability to foodless and waterless countries, and also because there is an • unlimited supply on the eastern borderlands of Syria and Palestine. They are invaluable for patrol work, and unequaled as beasts of burden. But they need careful attention and are by no means as hardy as one might suppose. So long as they are in condition, we.Il watered and sufficiently fed, they will undergo considerable strain, but If asked to do too much they literally go to pieces. The great herds of camels that have, no doubt, been driven in from the Arabian borderlands will never have been ridden or even saddled. Thirteen thousand camel saddles cannot he produced in a hurry, and this is about the number that will be required, estimated by Napoleon's allowance per man. Camels will carry heavy loads on even ground, they are easy to feed compared with horses, or even mules, and they do not need water every day. But it must be mentioned that when thev do drink they are in the habit of putting away a phenomenal amount of water. It is the maximum amount of water required that is the point in this case, and is likely to prove unprocurable. The bountiful wells of EI Arish. for instance, have been estimated to be capable of supplying the needs of 15,000 to 20,000 men. I do not knew the comparative drinking capacity of man and camel, but out of 11,009 camels, not to mention horses, moles aad men, there would be many to go thirsty. A still more BagaLacant pose* in the commissariat ajnras«eskents Is the fact that the desert wffi Tory aoon be bereft of even its poor camel scrub.

Burn ail ripened weed seeds. Remove all roses before the petals tall. Keep all seed pods off of plants in* tended for bloom. Tree-peonies are gross feeders and require deep, llch soil Encourage sturdy growth and pinch off all straggling branches. Too rich soil encourages growth at the expense of bloom. Rambler roses should be trimmed moderately as soon as done flowering. If dry weather sets in, do not neglect to stir the soil and mulch. This is important Half the plants which refuse to grow for amateurs are starved to death, op killed by kindness. Adjust the knives of the lawnmower to cut within two inches of the roots of the grass. When watering plants, do not force the water against the plant; let it fall In the form of a shower. Do not neglect to mark the wild flowers NOW which yon wish to transplant later in the border. Stir In about the roots of the tea rosea a little finely powdered bonemeal Pick the blossoms of pansiea, naetarttams and sweet peas every day. If allowed to seed they cease to bloom. For gross feeders, such as cannas, ealadhuns, etc, a thick mulch of strawy barnyard manure and plenty of water insures success. Pinch back the tops of the searWP^do runner; see that all climbers have support, and watch for insect pests. Stake the tube roses, gladioli, dahlias and other plants likely to be blown down by the wind or broken by storms. Lily and other bulbs are apt to split up into small bulbs if the drainage Is clogged, or the soil kept too wat.. Keep the chrysanthemums in a shady place during the summer, water regularly, pinch into shape, prune and train. Keep the plant free from insect pests. To root an ivy geranium, make a hole under the leaves of the large plant, set the slip about three inches deep, allowing three joints to be under the soil, and they are almost sure to root. Give liquid manure only when the ground is moist; the rootB cannot absorb the fertilizer when in want of water; hence, the giving of fertilizers during drought often results in the death of the plant In time of drought If water enough to soak the ground is not to be. had regularly, it la better to give none to most plants, as in that case plants will adjust themselves to prevailing conditions. If surface waterings are given during dry weather, the surface roots win start to receive i t and when it Is withheld these roots will die and the plants suffer thereby. In trying to save seeds of many plants, tie a little cheesecloth bag over the seed pod Just before ft ripens, so the pod, when opening, cannot scatter the seeds. Many plants, hovover, not "come true" to seed. - y*s B S The reasons for Certain-teed Roofing Every buyer PPSKJS the proper ance, when he pays for the best quality, that a second or third quality will not be delivered. The market Some manufacturers with poor facilities too often meet competition by cutting quality. Some wholesalers buy any old quality, put their labels on it, and say it is the best Our Certain-teed label is backed by the written guarantee of t£Two3oV1argest manufacturer of asphalt roofings. It gives each buyer the aasurance wanted, and our unequalled facuities for manufacturing enable us to sell it at a very reasonable price. _ These are the reasons for Certain-teed Roofing We invite every one -interested to come to our milk and see how we make the goods. We know that our Otrtain-tmtd Roofing is the best quality that we can make. It's the best quality that can b"cmade to Last and remain waterproof on die roof. It is made with that one purpose in view. We also make cheap grade, poor quality roofings to meet the demand for very temporary roofs, but the Certain-tmed label goes only on our best quality, longest life product. It is the grade which carries our Company name and endorsement and guarantee—1-ply 5 years, 2-ply 10 years, 3-ply 15 years. If you want the tight quality and want to be sure you are eetttaflr what yon pay for, insist on the C+rtajn-tffd label, The price is reasonable. No one can tell the quality of a piece of roofing* by looking' at it. The man is not living" who can take three kinds of roofing of different qualities and tell with any decree of accuracy the length of time each one will Last on the roof. He cannot tell their relative values by looking a t them. Why take the chance of guessing', when you can sret the safest guarantee on the best quality goods at a reasonable price. If for any reason you do not care for the high. est quality—if you want a temporary roof, we also make goods sold at the lowest price on the market, because we have unequalled facilities. and are making approximately a third of the entire asphalt roofing and building Spers of the whole worlds supply. Our rilities enable us to beat all competition on price goods as well a s on Certtun-tfmd quality. The difference between the total cost of the goods, the freight, the laying, etc.. between Suality goods and price goods is insignificant. t is much better policy to cut out the guessing and let the manufacturer of real responsibility Insure you on all the vital points.

ATTEMPTS TO HANG HIMSELF WOMAN TO FACE SECOND TRIAL. SAYS ATTORNEY Robert Smith Confesses to B r j t a Murder But Refuses to Give Reason for Act. Sat-MU.W • - As she was s>i:>gin^ "In the Good Old Summer Time," and was happily jaiticputmi; a happy marriage ThurritUy ui&hi, Mrs. Grace Steiniiuust-r, u widuu, '^J yi^ars did, was brutally murdered by her IIUJb& nd-to-be, Robert Smith, 4u years old, of Cleveland, at the home of .Mrs. ^Florence BanUeld. Lincoln avenue, Thursday afternoon. Smith, it is alleged, while Mrs. Stemhauser's back was turned, drew a razor from his pocket and cut her throat from ear to ear. Apparently in the excitement which followed, Smith was forgotten. The woman was rushed to St. Mary's hospital where she died three hours later. Smith left the Banfield home, and calmly walked to the county jj.ii where he greeted the turnkey with, "Hello Joe, I just killed a woman and this is what 1 used." Then he displayed a razor w.th two deep nicks in it. The missing bits of steel were found in Mrs. Stemhauser's throat by physicians at the hospital. Soon after Smith was locked up he made an attempt to hang himself. He tore a blanket in strips and fastened the blanket about his neck. Before he had strangled himself the turnkey found him, and until after the trial he will be kept under guard. Smith, during a grilling by Chief of Police Baskin and Prosecuting Attorney B. J. Vincent, refused to tell why he killed the woman. He finished serving a sentence in the coimty jail Wednesday as a vagrant. It was there that he met Mrs. Steinhauser, who had been confined there for treatment. Mrs. Steinhauser was released 20 days ago and when she departed it was fully decided that they should be married April 1. Smith wa.8 arraigned in police court Friday morning, waived examination and was immediately taken before Judge Gage in circuit court. He pleaded guilty and received the life sentence. Within-twenty-four hours after committing the crime Smith had started to serve his sentence in Jackson prison. MRS. F L O R E N C E C A R M A N Minneola, N.

Blackmar to precide at the trial. The district attorney indicated that he had discovered new evidence of an Important nature. He declined, however, to discuss this new evidence and said that he and counsel for Mrs, Carman had arranged not to discuss the case in any manner prior to the trial. BANKS SHOW GOOD GAINS Commissioner Merrick Makes Report Showing Aggregate Increase In Business Since December. WILL REACH HIGH FIGURE Hlnkley Says Appropriations W i l l Exceed Those of Last Session, Lansing—According to Chairman Hinkley of the ways and means committee, the appropriations of this legislature will exceed from 1750,000 to $1,000,000 the figure of two years ago when the top notch record of $14,750,- 000 was reached. The outlook is that the total this session will approximate $16,000,000. "We have been paring," said he, "but I cannot see how we can keep much below $16,000,000. The highway! department deficiency of $600,000 made a big boost necessary at the out-1 set. Everybody wants more money and in almost every instance of a j state institution, the request seems to be founded on such a basis that we cannot refuse. "I had hoped to keep the appropriati& rrrHoXn to $15,000,000 and had practically promised Governor Ferris with his help to dc> so." The announcement of Chairman Hlnkley rings the death knell of the proposed new state office building which has absolutely no chance now. Salary raises for clerks and others can also be forgotten this year. 8tate Wide B i l l Reported Out.

Albany, N. Y.—Weighty problems face the Constitutional convention which convened here Tuesday noon. Twenty-one years have elapsed since the last constitution was drawn and it is expected that the convention will be long drawn out. Chief among the issues which probably will be disposed of are: Equal suffrage, old age pensions, home rule for cities, commission form of government, re-organization of the judiciary, conservation of natural resources, simplification of the election system, reduction of the number of elective state officials—short ballot. Equal suffrage, regardless of what action the convention takes, will come before the voters next fall at the regular election. Within six weeks after adjournment of the convention the changes must be submitted to a vote of the people. Republicans control the convention, having elected 116 of the 168 delegates last November.

The orders were the first issued since the campaign against the disease began last, fall that added no neAv territory to the quarantined area. Recent reports have shown steady improvements in conditions and April 1 the department announced there was no animal in the United States suffering with the disease, Since then there have been reports of sporadic cases, but it is believed complete eradication of the plague is almost in sight.

Port Huron—Judge Law Saturday afternoon denied the motion for a new trial in the Robert Walsh will case, which was decided a few weeks ago in favor of the Port Huron heirs. In their motion for a new trial the Detroit heirs filed a number of affidavits In which they accused several of the Jurymen with misconduct, as well as County Clerk Albert Ryan. They further alleged misconduct on the part of certain beneficiaries of the late pioneer resident and on the part of Lincoln Avry, one of the attorneys for the proponents of the will. The court, in his opinion, said that he had gone into the charges carefully and finds that there is not the least foundation for them. Bulgars Attack Greek Town.

SOME H A R D KNOCKS Woman Gets Rid of "Coffee H a b i t " The injurious action of coffee on the hearts of many persons is well known by physicians to be caused by caffeine. This is the drug found by chemists in coffee and tea. A woman suffered a long time with severe heart trouble and finally h e r doctor told her she must give up coffee, as that was the principal cause of the trouble. She writes: "My heart was so weak it could not do its work properly. Sly husband would sometimes have tj> carry m e from the table, and it would seem that I would never breathe again. "The doctor told me that coffee w a s causing the weakness of my heart. H e said I must stop it, hut it Beemed I could not give it up until I was down, in bed with nervous prostration. "For eleven weeks I lay there and suffered. Finally husband brought home some Postum and I quit coffee and started new and right Slowly I got-well.

Did I not confidently expect to find Oliver there, 1 should not let you undertake this ride. But the inquiries I have Just made lead me to hope for the best results." "What's that?" "That's the cry of a loon." "How awful! Do they often cry like that?" "Not often in the nighttime." Reuther shuddered. Mr. Black regarded her anxiously. Had he done wrong to let her join him in thiB strange ride? "Shall we go back and wait for broad daylight?" he asked. "No, no. I could not bear the suspense of wondering whether all was going well and the opportunity being given you of seeing and speaking to him. We have taken such precautions —chosen so late (or should I say BO early) a start—that I'm sure we have outwitted the man who is so watchful of us. But if we go back, we cannot slip away from him again; and Oliver will have to submit to a humiliation It is our duty to spare him. And the good judge, too, I don't care if the loons do cry; the night is beautiful." And it was, had their hearts been In tune to enjoy I t A gibbous moon had risen, and, inefficient as it was to light up the recesses of the forest, it illumined the treetops and brought out the difference between earth and sky. The road, known to the horses, if not to themselves, extended like a black ribbon under their eyes, but the patches of light which fell across it at intervals took from it the uninterrupted gloom it must have otherwise had. Mr. Sloan, who was at once their guide and hOBt, promised that dawn would be upon them before they reached the huge gully which was the one dangerous feature of the road. Their guide had prophesied truly. Heralded by that long cry of the loon, the dawn began to reveal itself and the everyday world of the mighty forest was upon them with its night mystery gone. But not the romance of their errand, or the anxiety which both felt as to its fulfillment Full sight brought full realization. However they might seek to cloak the fact, they could no longer disguise from themselves that the ob-j ject of their Journey might not be acceptable to the man In hiding at Tempest lodge. Reuther's faith in him was strong, but even her courage faltered a s she thought of the disgrace awaiting him whatever the circumstances or however he might look upon his father's imperative command to return. But she did not draw rein, and the three continued to ride up and on. Suddenly, however, Mr. Sloan was seen to turn his head sharply, and In another moment his two companions heard him say: "We are followed. Ride on and leave me to take a look." Instinctively they also glanced back before obeying. They were just rounding the top of an abrupt hill, and expected to have an uninterrupted view of the road behind. But the masses of foliage were as yet too thick for them to see much but the autumnal red and yellow spread ont below them. "I hear them; I do not see them," remarked their guide. "Two horses are approaching." "How far are we now from the lodge?" - "A half-hour's ride. We are just at the opening of the gully." "You will Join u i toon?" "As quickly at I make out who are on the horse* behind us." Reuther and the lawyer rode on. Her cheeks had gained a slight flash, bat otherwise she looked unmoved. He was less at ease than she; for he had less to sustain him. The gully, when they came to It, proved to be a formidable one. It was not only deep but precipitous, and for the two mile* they rode along fts edge they saw no let-up in the steepnen on one side or of the almost equally abrupt rise of towering rock on the other. It was Reuther's nrst experience of so precrpttoos a climb, and under other circumstances she might have bees timid; hat hi her present heroic mood, it was sil a part of her voice behind them. Drawing in their horses, they greeted him eagerly when he appeared. "Were you right? Are we followed?" "That's as may be. I didn't hear or see anything more. I waited, but nothing happened, so I came on." His words were surly and his looks sour; they, therefore, forbore to question him further, especially as their keenest interest lay ahead, rather than behind them. They were nearing Tempest lodge. As it broke upon their view, perched like an eagle's eyrie on the crest of a rising peak, they drew rein, and, after a short consultation, Mr. Sloan wended his way up alone. He was a well-known man throughout the whole region, and would be likely to gain admittance if anyone could. But all wished the hour had been leas early. However, somebody was up in the picturesque place. A small trail of smoke could be seen hovering above its single chimney, and promptly upon Mr. Sloan's approach, a rear door swung back and an old man showed himself, but with no hospitable intent. On the contrary, he motioned the intruder back, and shouting out some very decided words, resolutely banged the door s h u t Mr. Sloan turned slowly about "Bad luck," he commented, upon joining his companions. "That was Deaf Dan. He's got a warm nest here, and he's determined to keep i t "No visitors wanted,' was what he shouted, and he didn't even hold out his hand when I offered him the letter." "Give me the letter," said Reuther. "He won't leave a lady standing out in the cold." Mr. Sloan handed over the judge's message, and helped her down, and she in turn began to approach the place. As she did so, she eyed It with the curiosity of a hungry h e a r t It was a compact structure of closely cemented stone, built to resist gales and harbor a would-be recluse, even in an Adirondack winter. Mr. Sloan had been repulsed from the west door; she would try the east Oliver (if Oliver it were) was probably asleep; but she would knock, and knock, and knock; and If Deaf Dan did not open, his master soon would. But when she found herself in face of this simple barrier and was lifting her hand to the door it suddenly flew open and a man appeared before her. CHAPTER XVI, The lawyer eyW her with growing artmtrit4^ B e had not ntiseeJoslate* nor ntsaa* As they wars amktng a tarn to gala the saeuaK l i e f aeard Mr. Rosa's Found and Lost It was Oliver. Oliver unkempt and with signs upon him of a night's work of study or writing; but Oliver!—her lover once, but now just a stranger into whose hand she must put this letter. She tried to stammer out her errand; but the Budden pallor, the starting eyes—the whole shocked, almost terrified appearance of the man she was facing, stopped her. She forgot the surprise, the incredulity of mind with which he would naturally hall her presence at his door in a place so remote and of such inaccessibility. She only saw that his hands had gone up and out at sight of her, and to her sensitive soul, this looked like a rebuff which, while expected, choked back her words and turned her faintly flushing cheek scarlet "It Is not I," burst from her lips in Incoherent disclaimer of his possible thought "I'm just a messenger. Tour father—" "It Is you!" Quickly his hands passed across his eyes. "How—" Then his glance, following hers, fell on the letter which she now remembered to hold o u t "It's the copy of a telegram," she tremblingly explained, as he continued to gase at it without reaching to take i t "You could not be found In Detroit and as it was important that you should receive this word from your father, I undertook to deliver i t I remembered your fondness for this place sad how you ones said that this is where you would Ilka to write your books, and so I came on a venture— but not alone—Mr. Black is with me and—" -Mr. Black! Who? W h a t r He was still staring at bis father's l e t ter; and still had mads no offer to take l t -Raad this n r s t - said aha. Then he woke to the attaaikm.

Then there came a rattling uoise aa he crushed the letter in hit* hand. "Tell me what this means," said he, but he did not -turn his head aa he made this request. "Your father must do that," was her gentle reply. "I was only to deliver the letter. I came—we came—thus eavly, because we thought—we feared we should get no opportunity later to find you here alone. There seem to be people on the road—whom— whom you might feel obliged to entertain and as your father cannot wait—" He had wheeled about Hla face confronted hers. It wore a look she did not understand and which made him seem a stranger to he». Involuntarily she took a step back. "I must be going now," said Bhe, and fell—her physical weakness triumphing at last over her will power "Oliver? Where Is Oliver?" These were Reuther's first words, as, coming to herself, she perceived Mr. Black bending helplessly over her. The answer was brief, almost indifferent Alanson Black was cursing himself for allowing her to come to this" house alone. "He. was here a moment ago. When he saw you begin to give signs of life, he slid o u t How do you feel, my— my dear? What will your mother say?" "But Oliver?" She was on her feet now; she had been lying on some sort of couch. "He must—Oh, I remember now. Mr. Black, we must go. I have given him his father's letter." "We are not going till you have something to e a t Not a word. I'll—" Why did his eye wander to the nearest window, and his words trail away into silence? Reuther turned about to see. Oliver was In front, conversing earnestly with Mr. Sloan. As they looked, he dashed back into the rear of the house, and they heard his voice rise once or twice in some ineffectual commands to his deaf servant, then there came a clatter and a rush from the direction of the stable, and they saw him flash by on a gaunt but fiery horse, and take with long bounds the road up which they had Just labored. A 8mall Trail of 8moke Hovering Above Its 8ingle Chimney. He had stopped to equip himself in some measure for his ride, but not the horse, which was without saddle or any sort of bridle but a halter strung about his neck. This was flight; or so it appeared to Mr. Sloan, as he watched the young man disappear over the brow of tne hilL What Mr. Black thought was not so a p p a r e n t He had no wish to discourage Reuther whose feeling was one of relief as her first word showed. "Oliver is gone. We shall not have to hurry now and perhaps if I had a few minutes in which to rest—" She was on the verge of fainting again. And then Alanson Black showed of what stuff he was made. In ten minutes he had bustled about the half-deserted building, and with the aid of the dated and uncomprehending deafmute, managed to prepare a cup of hot tea and a plate of steaming eggs for the weary girl. After such an effort, Reuther felt obliged to eat, and she did; seeing which, the lawyer left her tor a moment and went out to question their guide. "Where's the young lady?* This from Mr. 8ftoan. "Batiag sosaethlng, Come in and hare a btta, sad let the horses e a t too. The young feBow went off pretty trawl waa way to eas> iure-—if that's wf.iat jou want to i i U O W . " •'What'.' We are followed, then?" "There are men on the road; two, as I told you before. He can't get by thi.-m — if that's what he wants to do." "But I thought ihey fell back. We didn't hear them after you Joined ua." , "No; they didn't come on. They didn't have to. This its the only road down the mountain, and it's one you've goc to follow or go tumbling over the precipice. All they've got to do la to wait tor him; and that a what 1 tried to tell him, hut he just shook his arm at me and rode ou. He might better have waited for company." Mr. Black cast a glance behind him, saw that the door of the house waa almost closed and ventured to put another question. "What did he ask you when he came out here?" "Why we had chosen such an early hour to bring him hla father's message," Sloan replied. "And what did you say?" "Waal, I said that there was another fellow down my way awful eager to see him, too; and that you were mortal auxiouB to get to him first. That was about it, wasn't it, sir?" "Yes. And how did he take that?" "He turned white, and asked me just what I meant. Then I said that some one wanted him pretty bad, for, early aB it waa, this stranger was up as soon aa yoa, and had followed us into the mountains and might show up any time on the road. At which he gave me a stare, then plunged back into the house to get his hat and trot out hla horse. I never saw quicker work. But it's no use; he can't escape those men. They know it, or they wouldn't have stopped where they did, waiting for him." Mr. Black recalled the aspect of the gully, and decided that Mr. Sloan was r i g h t There could be but one end to this adventure. Oliver would be caught in a manifest effort to escape, and the judge's cup of sorrow and humiliation would he full. He felt the shame of it himself, also the folly of his own methods and of the part he had allowed Reuther to play. Beckoning to his host to follow him, he turned toward the house. "Don't mention your fears to the young lady," said he. "At least, not till we are well past the gully." "I shan't mention anything. Don't, you be afeared of that." And with a simultaneous effort difficult for both, they assumed a more cheerful air, and briskly entered the house. It waa not until they were well upon the road back that Reuther ventured to speak of Oliver, She was riding as far from the edge of the precipice as possible. In descent It looked very formidable to her unaccustomed eye. "This is a dangerous road for a man to ride bareback," she remarked. "I'm terrified when I think of it, Mr. Black. Why did he go off quite so suddenly? Is there a train he is anxious to reach? Mr. Sloan, is there a train?" "Yes, miss, there is a train." "Which he can get by riding fast?" "I've known it done!" 'Then he Is excusable." Yet her anxious glance stole ever and again to the dizzy verge toward which she now unconsciously urged her own horse till Mr. Black drew her aside. A half-hour's further descent, then a quick turn and Mr. Sloan, who had ridden on before them, came galloping hastily back. Mr. Black hastened to meet their guide. "What now?" he asked. "Have they come together? Have the detectives got him?" "No, not him; only his horse. The animal has just trotted up—riderless." "Good Godf The child's instinct was true. He has been thrown—" "No." Mr. Sloan's mouth was close to the lawyer's ear. "There's another explanation. If the fellow Is game, and anxious enough to reach the train to risk his neck for It, there's a path he could have taken which would get him there without his coming round this turn." Then as Reuther came ambling up: "Young lady, don't let me scare yon, but it looks now as if the young man had taken a short cut to the station. Look back along the edge of the precipice for about half a mile, and you will see shooting up from the gully a solitary tree whose topmost branch maches within a few feet of the road above." "Yes,M she suddenly replied, as her glance feU on the one red splash showing against the dull gray of the cliff. "A leap from the road, if well-timed, would land a man among some very stalwart branches." "But—bnt—If he didn't reach— didn't catch—" "Young lady, he's a man in a ou- •and. If yon want the proof, look over there." (TO BE CONTINUED.) Rfee Crop of United Stateo. The acreage of rtee in Louisiana and Arkansas has increased approximately 7O&0OO acres in the fatal two y e a n , The United States la now growing practically the eejsdvalen* el all t h e rioe It n**t> •m Untruthful Reports Circulated by Interested Parties. Defaming a neighbor at the expense of ihe truth doea not help those who axe guilty of the practice, and it may be baid that those spreading false reports about Canadian lands, in the hope that they may secure customers for their own, will certainly fail of their purpose. Falms statements so maliciously circulated will sooner or later be disproved. And, aa in the catie of the lands of Western Canada, the fertility of which is now BO well known to people of e,very state in the United States, the folly of this work shows an exceeding short sightedness on the part of those_ guilty of the practice. The present war has given some of these people the opportunity to exercise their art, but in doing it they are only arousing the curiosity of those who read the statements and a trifling investigation will only reveal their untruthfulness. A very foolish statement has recently appeared in a number of papers, reading in part as follows: — "It is believed that as a result of the war tax on land imposed by the Canadian Government a number of former Dakota farmers who went to the British Northwest will be compelled to return to the United States. Information has been received that the tax will amount to about $500 for each farm of 160 acres, which in the case of many of the former residents of the two Dakotas would practically amount to confiscation." To show that the public has doubted, hundreds of inquiries have been made the Government at Ottawa, Canada, only to bring out the most emphatic denial. A full-fledged lie of this kind has, of course, only a short life, and will tell in the end against those who forge it and spread it, but, as a - Winnipeg paper points out, it is most complimentary to the agricultural possibilities of Western Canada to find that rival farming propositions need audacious mendacity of this description to help them. What is the truth? The Saskatchewan Government ha% authorized a levy of $10 per quarter section on uncultivated lands owned by non-residents. The Alberta Government has imposed a Provincial tax of 10 mills on the assessed value of all uncultivated lands. There are some special applications of these taxes, but the main provisions are as above. Those vacant lands held by non-residents in Western Canada form a grave problem. They are making for poor communities, poor schools and poor social and economic conditions generally. By having them cultivated the owners as well as the districts in which they are located will benefit alike. It is for this reason that the Government has recently asked the co-operation of the non-residents. The high price of grain for some years to come, and the general splendid character of Western Canada land will make the question well worth consideration.—Advertisement Oriental Water Bottles. Hebron, one of the oldest cities In Palestine, has always been famous for its Oriental water bottles, made of goat skins. Here are to be found large tanneries, where these receptacles are turned out by the thousands. Lying upon the ground In rows may be seen hundreds of goat skins awaiting purchasers. Each skin is inflated, either with water or with air, so that the buyer may know it is perfectly water tight. The majority of the skins used come from Arabia, while a large number are also received from the Lebanons. They are brought to Hebron by the camel caravans and are purchased by the tanneries and turned into bottles. They pass through many processes and a tanner will spend a week upon a single skin before it is rendered water-tight and serviceable. From Hebron these old "bottles" are sent to all parts of the East, thousands going down into Egypt and the Sudan every year. They are also lifted as rafts. A number of inflated skins are attached to a light wooden frame, which then not only readily floats, bnt is capable of carrying quite a heavy load. Such rafts are to be seen om tha rivers of 8yria and also on the Bophrates and Tigris.—Birmingham P o e t "The poor fellow waa simply driven to his grave." "Welt, why not?

THE PERENNIAL FLOWER BED By JULIE ADAMS P O W E L L Last month we talked about the hardy bulbs. This month we are going to make a flower border of perennial plants, plants which sow their own seed and of plants that are biennials, and we are going to buy or beg them all. Suppose we have a border from twenty to forty feet In length and from six to fifteen feet in depth. Or to fit our "estates," our border can be made much larger or very much smaller. A border planted by a woman should not be over twenty by eight feet In site, for if she did all the work except the heavy digging, it might not be possible for her to give a larger one the right and necessary care. Such a border should ran north and south, and if possible, face the east The background may be of hollyhocks, both single and double, golden-glow, the* single tiger Illy, the ever blooming flame flower, the tall meadow-rue, and tall meadow-sweet, set out alternately. Then in front of these and at least two feet from them we will set out the pearl echillea, some of the columbines, the choice of which are canadensis, chrysantha, chrysantha alba, carulia hybrida, skinneri, and Call- J fornica hybrida. I In the center of this row a hydrangea paniculate grandiflora would be very pretty, and to continue the j row, hardy pompon chrysanthemums, I the several blue varieties of larkspurs, moon penny daisies, Shasta daisies, fox gloves sweet Williams, coreopsis, I lanceolata grandiflora and an almost double variety, called "the golden fleece." Nicotina afflnis can be planted In this row early next spring and from year to year it will sow its own seed and will come up so close to where the old plants grew that it will not often need transplanting. Then we *ill have the hardy gaillardia, gysophila panlculata, or baby's breath, lavender, Lychnis, rose campion, monarda didyma splendent, also called the bee balm and robin runaway, the Chinese bell flower, the hardy perennial poppies and the gar* den heliotrope. A double border we will make of two heights of plants, setting the taller ones a little back of the very low ones. The snap dragon, the double anemone, the mullein pink, the sea pink, English daisies, the harebell. Canterbury bells, the hardy double and single pinks, the polyanthus, the "hardy primroses and the English cowslips all will help to make our hardy flower bed a "thing of beauty and a joy forever." The earth for a perennial border should be light and porous. Sever try to raise flowers in soggy, wet soil. As soon as the plants are well rooted have a forkful of well-decayed stable manure spaded In well aronsd each plant unless they are very avail plants, then use your own good Judgment Just before fseealng weather a mulch two or three inches deep of stable manure should be spread over the bed a little heavier about each plant, and if the plants have any spooky branches they should all be trimmed back quite close THE CALLA AND ITS CULTURE By BESSIE L. PUTNAM. Rich soil, moisture, warmth, and sunshine are the key notes to success with the calla. It can—yes—must be made to bloom In winter without much sdnshlne If the other essentials are supplied. If wanted for winter blooming it Is best to let It rest in summer, turning the pot on Its side, in some^but of the way corner. Repot in September, filling in a layer of charcoal for drainage and" food. Over this put a layer of manure well rotted, and finish with a rich compost Water rparingly until growth commences, and then the water can hardly be supplied too freely. Always use warm water. The roots will enjoy it quite hot, but this la death to the stem. Some place a ring of tin around the base of the stem, pressing it down an inch into the soil. With this protection the hot water can be freely used. Bottom heat may also be supplied by placing the pot on a hot brick. By keeping a pair of bricks for this purpose and alternating every 12 hours the buds can be forced more freely. Give liquid manure once or twice a week, gradually increasing the dose as the plant seems to thrive. Rout the red spider by spraying with cold water, and the scale with soapsuds. When two leaves appear successively from the same stalk, watch for a bud next Others will succeed It through the winter if the treatment outlined is adhered to. Bottom heat, moisture, and all the sunshine possible are the best incentives to growth Official Denial PeVarTaaea a war ana la to KEEPING UP THE LAWN Dont mow the lawn too closely during the heated term; but do not allow weeds to go to seed. Deep working, thorough pulverisation, effective fertilization and a thorough raking and rolling down to a smooth level are all necessary to a smooth, level lawn. Get your lawn seeds of a reliable seedsman, and ask for the best and the freshest Dont use old seed left over from last year, but insist on baring It fresh, and of a good mixture. The best time to seed a lawn Is during the latter part of August or the early part of 9*T>tember. At that season, the heat is ever and showers are almost sure to come, and the young grass will have several months of cool, moist weather in which to grow before winter.

S i b t f A a r Said i i w i w l w K . la Springtime appetites should be ah fresh and unspoiled as is the spring itself. But too often the spring appe- U g l pains in my back ! tite is dulled and it Is only by dint H H and side and was so 'of constant care the housekeeper or c:ook is able to provide a tempting diet on the spring table. Winter fare p a l l ^ a t this season. A.nd the usual winter condiments and appetizers fail to work successfully. Mustard pickles, chowchow, cole slaw., olives—all have lost their winter trick 3f whetting the appetite. Celery has literally lost most of its crispness ana sweetness by spring. New appetizers and relishes must be relied on to give point to the daily diet. Cucumbers are one reliable spring relish. There is, of course, much oh jection to cucumbers on the ground ot indigestibility. They are usually Indigestible—that nobody can deny. But some people do not find them so, and eat them without fear. So if they are cot taboo on your table, make use of them. It is a good plan to slice them thinly and place them in iced water in the refrigerator for an hour before using them. Then dress them with oil and vinegar and serve them with fish. Or dice them and mix them with diced green pepper and celery, with mayonnaise, in cups of lettuce leaves as a salad. Tomatoes, too, can be made to serve admirably the purpose of whetting the appetite. A very good appetizer with which to begin dinner is a round 3f firm tomato, half an inch thick, on which is placed pepper, celery or cucumber, mixed with mayoanalse dressing. Sliced tomatoes, iced in the refrigerator, are another good dinner accompaniment They may be Berved with fish or with the meat course ..nd of course all sorts of tomato salads are delicious in spring. And a good sherbet for dinner can be made •yf equal parts of strained tomato uice and meat -stock, to which a little •oftened gelatin has been added, froten in an ice cream freezer Radishes should always be served v-ery cold. Clean them and chill them thoroughly in iced water and then jut in attractive shapes. Make roses, ometimes, by cutting back the red ikin in points.

S«?V f • • * » . . •>, PINCKNEY DISPATCH ASTER in the Holy Land is the most impressive occasion of the year, for thither throng pilgrims from all parts of the Christian world, deeply reverent with the spirit of the season. In Jerusalem they follow in the footsteps of Jesus on his march to the cross, and the procession that leaves the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, bearing a huge cross, and makes its way along the Via Dolorosa, offering supplications at the stations of the cross, Is a spectacle that never grows dim in the memory. Here, in the setting of the most pro< found tragedy in the history of the world, is incarnated the eternal spirit that had its expression 2,000 years ago, defying time and death and sweetening the world with tenderness 1 and love. Incense from fire and the Incense of prayer rise along the way, and hearts are hymned to tears, while the stolid Moslem looks on with impassive face. Next to a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, the bathing in the river Jordan is one of the precious experiences of the peasants from Russia, Greece, Bulgaria, Turkey and other countries. Thousands journey to this holy stream to bathe, that they may be washed clean of their sins. And in the joy of the cleansing, those who are compelled to remain at home are not torgotten. So every pilgrim fills a bottle with the sacred water to be taken back on the tedious Journey. These reverent people even go to the extent of taking home branches and shrubs growing along the banks of the river. But one of the most picturesque sights Is the carrying away of sacred fire from the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. ,4«ef c&x&/xcaap /vje^r The pilgrims light their candles at IN THE SEASON OF REBIRTH Mankind Can See In Nature Awakent ing an Appeal to Hit Spiritual Feetinge. Between the penitential season of the religious year, which Ash Wednesday opens, and the weather of winter's decay and of spring's renewing, Is a mysterious bond of similarity which enhances the meaning of the observance. In the order of nature It Is a t i n e of the sloughing off of the old aad the quickening of the new; of the release of earth and streams from ley fetters and. snow -burial, and the deep, secret stirrings of new life. And these, if we will, are but the symbols of what may stir and quicken in us under the influence of this season of self-denlala, both of the great things and of the small. It is the season which reaffirms the mystery which, like deatii, no man understands until be has passed its portals by experience; the mystery, namely, that It U only by gdring u» that we acquire thtianother.their self Irrtnf and transmitgreatest gifts of life. We know that £ n t | u force and Influence to the comthe principle holds In the Uttte things, yet the fear of trying tt In the greet the shrine, and, jealously guarding the little flame from capricious winds and drafts, make the journey to Jaffa, board ship, and, throughout the sea voyage, often to the end of a rough journey over mountains by the most primitive means of transportation, unceasingly guard the treasure until they finally arrive among the expectant stay-at-homes with their blessings of fire and water. Pilgrims recall one Holy Week when, in upon the peaceful spirit of adoration, came the menace of Christian massacre—so the first alarm told .11—and in a few minutes thfl streets, swarming with picturesque crowds, were deserted, the shops and bazaars closed. But when the garrison of the city marched through the streets, headed by the band to allay the fears of the Christians, the Moslem population turned out—not to rise against the infidel, but just like the inhabi- EASTER. Lo! Morning breaks! The shades of nJffht Melt as a scroll in burning light; First day. creation's morn, the dawn Of this when life anew is born, Begotten of the parting^ breath.

Easter celebrations take on varied aspects all over the world, with curious customs and usages in the rural districts and spots remote from the great traveled highways. But it is in the foreign cities that one often sees the expression of the big, impressively picturesque note. This is especially so of the Latin countries. In Spain, for instance, one sees it, as well as In Italy and in France. But in all countries, though it is the time of outpouring, it is largely judged from an individual standpoint Easter in New York is different from Easter in Rome; and so the contrast may be carried along between many places. What is Easter to one man may not at all approach what another conceives to be the day—it may be too destitute of form and show, or too prodigal of it. Fields ot Lilies. Loveliest, perhaps of all the sights of nature are the fields of Bermuda lilies when in bloom.

Honolulu—The submerged submarine F-4 has been located outside the harbor, it was announced Sunday night. Portions of the superstructure have been brought to the surface. All hope of finding any of her crew alive waa abondoned Saturday. The positive statement was made here by Naval Constructor Julius A. Furer that the four submarines of the Hawaiian division were examined as to their stability only a month ago. He said that all were found in good condition. Earlier in the day there was bitter disappointment for the searchers when it was found by divers that what was supposed to have been the F-4, caught by grappling irons Saturday, was merely the anchor of a warship, supposed to be one lost by the Oregon. Divers Agraz and Evans went down the two cables thought to bave been attached "be* the submarine. Agraz, who went down the cable attached to the anchor, wore only a helmet. Diver Evans, who descended along the second cable, reported that he found nothing at the bottom. Agraz, whoee descent to a depth of 215 feet is said by naval authorities to be a world's record, spent 22 minutes on the downward journey and 9 1-2 minutes in the ascent. The experience apparently caused him no distress. Live Stock.

Rome, via Paris—A large mass meeting was held here Sunday by Italians who favor the taking of Trent, Trieste and Dalmatia. Forces of troops were present to prevent disorders. A resolution was unanimously passed requesting the government to obtain "by arms, the frontiers of Italy." After the meeting the crowd attempted to reach the Austrian embassy, but was charged by the troops and dispersed. Several arrests were made. Among those in attendance were senators, deputies and aldermen, and the representatives of more than 6,000 clubs and associations. Several orators made addresses, among them Slgnor Barseilal, a native of Trieste, who has been deputy for Rome for 25 years. He was greeted enthusiastically when he said the moment had arrived to take Trent, the key to the north and the door to the Adriatic. 0KUMAWINS WARM CAMPAIGN Government Militarist Party Victors in Jspaneae Election.

Our 8peech. Our very vocabulary is degraded; the most far-reaching symbols of our language come seldom into use, or appear with diminished meaning. Follow, for Instance, the course of the word "infinite" through the antics of contemporary literature. Our phraseology has become carnal; our vital terms are terms of physical life. Nowhere is the limitation of contemporary thought more apparent than in these instruments of speech. One must read again Wordsworth, Shelley, Carlyle, Ruskin, Arnold, Meredith, to meet great words now little employed, words that make you realize the utmost reach of life; In so doing, one pauses in dismay, realizing how full contemporary speech Is of lesser terms, how few employ the greater words that tell the Inner life of the soul.—From the Atlantic TELEGRAPHIC FLASHES Paris—Tha Duke de Montmorency, a prominent figure in the court of Napoleon III, died Thursday night at the ago of 78 years.

A grain expert who has been watch* * ing the grain markets and the world's ^ grain fields for a number of years^ %^,; ^ says:— £>ff£$i "There Is at the present time abouf^JT;^> two billion bushels of wheat, the pro- - * ductlon of the countries at war, tied up. This is about one-half the world's total production of wheat, which 1» four billion bushels. One writer argues that, granting that the warring nations produce a one-half crop in, the coming year, a deficit of one billion bushels will still be shown. Tho three countries upon which the filling of this deficit of one billion bushels will rest are the United States, Canada, and Argentina. The combined output of these three countries Is only 1,249,000,000, their exportable surplus would of course be much less, so it can easily be seen that the question la not one to be easily solved and it behooves all the above countries to increase their respective productions as much as they possibly can, for when the war is over and trade begins to re-establish itBelf and the nations undergo a process of rehabilitation, the demand for all breadstuffs will bo enormous. "During the three years following the declaration of peace the farmers of all neutral wheat-producing countries will have ample opportunity to market their wheat at good prices, and it may safely be assumed that tho demand will be heavy. Canada has an unusual opportunity in that sho has the natural environment for wheat production; she la under the protection of the British flag, and she will not be molested upon the water to any great extent; she can increase her acreage and greatly enhance her production. In other words, she can become a far greater wheat-producing country than she is at the present time," If the summing-up as made by this expert be correct, is there not the very best reason for the continued effort that is being made by the Government of the Dominion of Canada to secure settlers on the productive vacant lands of the country? Not only are these lands capable of producing high class wheat in large Quantities, but cattle, pigs, sheep and horses also do well. The climate la admirably sotted* «—Advertisement Purifying Gas With Electricity. Electricity is being employed with success at a Detroit coke oven for tbo purpose of removing tar from artificial gas in the purifying process, says Popular Mechanics. Tbe gas Is passed through a highly ionized field, which is produced by a high-tension discharge of current ranging as high aa 80,000 volts, with the result that the tar forms in large drops, which are then easily separated. There are no high-tension leads exposed, siace tho ioniser contains the transformer. Ever Thus.

A carious crowd of neighbors Invado ths mysterious home of Judge Ostrander, county Jadffe and eccentric recluse, tollowla* i veiled woman who proves to be the widow of a man tried before the judge and electrocuted for murder years before. Her daughter 1« engaged to the judge's •on. frost whom he Is estranged, but the murder Is between the lovers. She plans to dear her husband's memory and asks the Jesse's aid. Deborah Scoville reads the newspaper clippings telling the story of the murder of Algernon Etherldge by John BcovUle In Dark Hollow, twelve years before. The judge and Mrs. Bcovllie meet at Spencer's Folly and she shows b i n how, on the day of the murder, she saw the shadow of a man, whittling a stick and wearing a long peaked cap. The judge engages her and her daughter Reuther to live with him In his mysterious home. Deborah and her lawyer, Black, go to the police station and see the stick used to murder Etheridge. She discovers a broken knife-blade point embedded in i t Deborah and Reuther go to lire with the judge. Deborah sees a the judge's son, with a across the eyes. That in Oliver's room, a cap with a peak like the shadowed one, and a knife with a broken blade-point Anonymous letters and a talk with Miss weeks increase her suspicions and fears. She finis that Oliver was In the ravine on the murder night Black warns her and ssiows her other anonymous letters htnttag at Oliver's guilt In the court room the judge Is handed an anonymous note. The note Is picked up and read aloud. A mob follows the judge to his home. Deborah tells him why suspicion has been aroused against Oliver. The Judge shows Deborah a statement written by Oliver years/ago telling how he saw her husband muraer Spencer at Spencer's Felly on tfie night the house was burned. A' vain attempt to silence the anonymous letter writer Is made. CHAPTER XIV—Continued. "I didn't ask to see the ladies," protested Flannagan, turning with a Blinkin* gait toward the door. If they only had let him go! If the judge in his new self-confidence had not beea so anxious to deepen the effect and Make any future repetition of the situation impossible! "You understand the lady," he Interposed, with the quiet dignity which was so Imposing on the bench. "She has mo sympathy with your Ideas and no faith la your conclusions. She believes absolutely in my son's innocence." "Do you, ma'am?" The man had turned aad was surveying her with the dogged Impudence of his class. "I'd like to hear yon say it, if you don't mind, ssa'am. Perhaps, then, I'll believe it." "X—" she began, trembling so, that she failed to reach her feet, although she made one spasmodic effort to do to. "I beMeve—Oh, I feel ill! It's been too much—I—" her head fell forward and she turned herself quite away from them all. "You see, she ain't so eager, jedge, as you thought." laughed the bill-poster, with a clumsy bow he evidently meant to be sarcastic "Oh, what have I done!" moaned Deborah, starting up as though she would fliag herself after the retreating figure, now half way down the hall. She saw in the look of the judge as he forcibly stopped her, and heard In the lawyer's whisper as he bounded past them both to see the fellow out: "Useless; nothing will bridle him now;" aad finding no support for her despairing spirit either on earth or, as she thought, in heaven* she collapsed where she sat and fell unnoticed to the floor, where she lay prone at the feet of the equally unconscious figure of the judge, fixed la another attack of hit peculiar complaint And Urns the lawyer found them whaa he returned from dosing the gate behind Flannagan.

I noticed that she was not at peace with herself when she came into the room,** - What's thatr The tone was short, and for the first time Irritable. "The change, if there was a change, was not so sudden as you think. She looked troubled, and as I thought, Irresolute when she came into the room." "You don't know her; you don't know what passed between us. She was all right then, but—go. to her, Black. She must have recovered by this time. Ask her to come here for a minute. I won't detain her. I will wait for her warning knock right here." The judge had declared his necessity to be greater than hers, and after Mr. Black had subjected him to one of hia most searching looks he decided that this was so, and quietly departed noon his errand. The judge left alone, sat, a brooding figure in his great chair, with no light in heart or mind to combat the shadows of approaching night settling heavier and heavier upon the room and upon himself with every slow passing and intolerable minute. At last, when the final ray had departed and darkness reigned supreme, there came a low knock on the door. Then a troubled cry: "Oh, Judge, >ire you here?" "Don't come any nearer; it is not necessary." A pause, then the quick question ringing hollow from the darkness: "Why have your doubts returned? Why are you no longer the woman you were when not an hour ago and In this very spot you cried, 'I will be Oliver's advocate!'" Then, as no answer came—as minutes passed, and sail no answer came, he spoke again and added: "I know that you are ill and exhausted—broken between duty ai~d sympathy; but you must answer me, Mrs. Bcovllie. My affairs won't wait I must know the truth and all the truth before this day Is over." "You shall." Her voice sounded hollow, too, and, oh, how weary! "You allowed the document you showed me She Lay at the Feet of the Unconscious Figure of the Judos. to remain a little too long before my eyes. That last page—need I say ttT" "Say it" "Shows—shows change, Judge trander. Some words have erased and new ones writtaa in. They are not many, but—** 1 understand. I do not blame, yoa, Deborah."

No, don't speak; just ask Mr. Black to return, will you?" When Mr. Black re-entered the study. It waa to find the room lighted &nd the Judge bent over the table, writing. MYou are going to send for Oliver?" he queried. The Judge hesitated, then motioning Black to sit said abruptly: "What is Andrews' attitude In this mattcrr Andrews was Shelby's district attorney. Black's answer was like the man. "I saw him for one minute an hour ago. I think, at present he is inclined to be both deaf and dumb, but If he's driven to action, he will act And. Judge, the man Flannagan isn't going to stop where he la." "Black, be merciful to my misery. What does this man know? Have you any idea?" "No, Judge, I haven't He's as tight as a drum—and as noisy. It is possible —Just possible that he's as empty. A few days will tell." "I cannot wait for a few days. I hardly feel as if I could wait a few hours. Oliver must come, even if—if the consequences are likely to be fatal. An Ostrander once accused cannot skulk. Oliver has been accused and —Send that!" he quickly cried, pulling forward the telegram he had written. Mr. Black took up the telegram and read: Come at once. Imperative. No delay and no excuse. ARCHIBALD OSTRANDER. "Mrs. Scoville will supply the address," continued the poor father. "You will see that it goes, and that its sending is kept secret. The answer, if any is sent, had better be directed to your office. What do you say, Black?" "I am your friend, right straight through, Judge. Your friend." "And my boy's adviser?" "I'm a surly fellow, judge. I have known you all these years, yet I've never expressed—never said what I even find it hard to say now, that— that my esteem is something more than esteem; that—that I'll do anything for you, judge." "I—we won't talk of that Black. Tell Mrs. Scoville to keep me Informed —and bring mo any message that may come. The boy, even if he leaves the first thing In the morning, cannot get here before tomorrow night" "Not possibly." "He will telegraph. I shall hear from him. O Ood! the hours 1 must wait; my boy! my boy!" It was nature's irrepressible cry. Black, pressed his hand and went out with the telegram. CHAPTER XV. He Must Be Found. Next morning an agitated confab took place at the gate, or rather between the two front gates. Mr. Black rang for admittance, and Mrs. Bcovllie answered the call. "One moment Mrs. Scoville. How can I tell the Judge! Young Ostrander is gone—fled the city, and I can get no clue to his whereabouts. I have been burning the telegraph wires ever since the first dispatch, and this is the result Where Is Reuther?" "At Miss Weeks. I had to command her to leave me alone with the judge. It's the first time I ever spoke unkindly to her Have you the messages with you?" He bundled them into her hand. "I will hand them In to him. We can do nothing less and nothing more. Then If he wants you, I will telephone." "Mrs. ScoviUe—" she felt his hand laid softly on her shoulder—"there is some one else in this matter to consider besides Judge Ostrander." "Reuther? Oh, don't I know it! She's not out of my mind a moment" "Reuther Is young, and has a gallant soul I mean you, Mrs. Scoville, you. Yoa are not to succumb \o this trial Yoa have a future—a bright future— or should have. Do not endanger It by giving up all your strength now. It's precious, that strength, or would "He must be found! Oliver mast be found!" How the words rung tn bar ears. She had handed in the massagas to the waiting father; she had uttered a word or two of explanation, aad then, at bis request had left him. Bat his last cry followed bar: "Ha mast be found!" Mr. Black looked sartoas. "Pride or hope?" ha asked. "Desperation," aha responded, with a guilty look about bar. "Possibly, aossa hops Is in I t too. Perhana, ha thinks that any charge of this nature fall before Oliver's manly ap» Whatever ha thinks, there Is hat oaa thing to do: Find Oliver." "Mrs. BcoviDe, tha police have started upoo that attempt I got tha tip this morning." "Wa mast forestall them. To satisfy tha Judge, Ottvar must coma of his own accord to faca those ehargaa." 1t*s a brave stock. If Oliver gats kda father's tatagraai ha will ooma." wa ts reach hiss! Wa ara abaotataty ia tha Hark." "If I could go to Detroit I might strike some clue; but I cannot leave the judge. Mr. Black, he told me this morning when I carried In his breakfast that be should see no one and go nowhere till I brought him word that Oliver was in the bouse. Tha hermit life has begun again. What shall we do? Advise me in this emergency, for 1 teal as helpleas as A child —as a lost child" "You say you cannot go to Dettatt Shall I go? Court is adjourned. I know of nothing more Important thaa Judge Ostrander's peace of mind—unless it is yours. I will go if you say so." "Will It avail? Let me think. I knew him well, and yet not wall enough to know where he would ba «\oat likely to go under impulse." "There is some one who knows him better than you do." "Reuther? Oh, she mustn't be told—" "Yes, she must She's our one ad vtter. Qo for her—or send me." "It won't be necessary. There's her ring at the gate. But, oh, Mr. Black, think again before you trouble this fragile child of mine with doubts an*? questions which make her mother tremble." "She has Bources of strength which you lack. She believes absolutely in Oliver's integrity. It will carry her through." "Please let her in, Mr. Black. I will wait here while you tell her." Mr. Black hurried from the room. When his form became visible on the walk without, Deborah watched him from where she stood far back in the room. A staff had been put in her hand, rough to the touch, b* t firm under pressure, and she needed such a staff. But she forgot gratitude and every lesser emotion In watching Reuther's expression. The young girl, running Into her arms, burst out with the glad cry: "Oliver is no longer in Detroit, but he's wanted here, and Mr. Black and I are going to find him. I think I know where to look. Get me ready, mother dear; we are going tonight" "But," objected Deborah, "if you know where to look for him, why take the child? Why go yourself? Why not telegraph to these places?" His answer was a look, quick, sharp and enigmatical enough to require explanation. He could not give it to her then, but later, when Reuther had left them, he said: "Men who fly their engagements and secrete themselves, with or without a pretext, are not so easily reached. We shall have to surprise Oliver Ostrander, In order to place his father's message in his hands." "You may be right But Reuther? Can she stand the excitement—the physical strain?" "You have the harder task of the two, Mrs. Scoville. Leave the little one to me. She shall not suffer." Deborah's response was eloquent It was only a look, but it made his harsh features glow and his hard eye soften. But his thoughts, If not his hopes, receive! a check when, with every plan made and Reuther in trembling anticipation of the journey, he encountered the triumphant figure of Flannagan coming out of police headquarters. His jaunty air, his complaisant nod, admitted of but one explanation. He had told his story to the chief authorities and been listened to. Proof that he had something of actual moment to tell them; something which the district attorney's office might feel bound to take up. * • • * • « • A night of stars, seen through swaying treetops whose leaves crisping to their fall, murmured gently of van* lshed hopes and approaching death. Below, a long, low building with a lighted window here and there, surrounded by a heavy growth of trees which are but the earnest of the Illimitable stretch of the Adirondack woods which painted darkness on the encircling horizon. Within, Reuther seated in the glow of a hospitable fire of great logs, talking earnestly to Mr. Black. As they were placed, he could see her much better than she could see him, his back being to the blaze and aha, In Its direct glare. He could, therefore, study her features without offense, and this he did steadily sad with deep Interest all the while she wss talking. He was looking for signs of physical weakness or fatigue; but he found none. The pallor of her features wss a natural pallor, and tn their expression, new forces were becoming apparent which gave him encouragement, rather thaa anxiety, for the adventure whose most trying events lay still before them. This is what she was saying: "I cannot point to any one man of tha many who have been about us ever since wa started aorta. Bat that wa have beea watched aad oar route followed, I feel quite convinced. But as yoa saw, no one besides ourselves left tha cars at this station, aad I am beginning to hope that we shall remain aasaolested tin we can take tha trip to Tempest lodge.

March 25, God in bis kind providence removed the dear one to the little mansion prepared for her above. The bereaved parents have the sympathy of their maoy friends in the community in which they live. Dear Wanda, thou, ha*t left a* And our Joss we deeply feel Bot 'tib God that bereft o i H e can all our sorrows heal. We would wiah thee back to cheer ut> With thy loving ways again We would have oar durliog near u» Bot to ask, would be io vain.

We also thank the Pastor for his comforting words, the girls for their tender words of song, the donors of the beautiful flowers and the uirdertaker for his services. May you receive as kindly attentions in your hour of trial. Mr, and Mrs. Arthur Mitchell. Don't Make The Mistake Of thinking that you're saving money by not advertising that old furniture in the garret; those useless implements in the shed; tht»t old buggy in the barn; that cow you want to sell if you had a buyer- all the things for which you have no use. As a matter of fact you are saving money for the want ad, bat sacrificing the doll * re that might be gained by making the sales, to say nothing of the satisfaction of trading useless stuff (to yon) for actual money, and letting someone else Uke what you have to use. There's hardly anything that someone can't use-mid the Want Ads today and see. Use them yourself at lc per word.

Ed Van Horn of Ypsilanti spent Sunday here. oven as Y U M 1 gJtPEftJENCC m for Temperance The recent local elbctioas Minuesota show large gaii;s the "dry" Bide. Out of 246 towns and cities in Vermont, only nineteen voted in favor of licensing the sale of intoxicating liqaors at the elections just held. The city of Belief on taine, Ohio, went dry recently by a majority of 291, in the largest vote ever polled. Everything considered, this was one of the most sweeping victories secured by Ohio drys. Last fall in the statewide election Bellefontaine gave a majjrity against prohibition. The United States court of appeals, fourth district has handed down a decision in a West Virginia case, folly upholding the Wesbb interstate law. As a result the express companies will ship no more liquor into that state. Cincinnati liquor dealers estimate they will lose business to the extent of $1,000,000 a year in consequence. M.
