He asks for a square deal for the whole town and when he cau't get it kicks like a bay steer. He squeals when he sees special priveleges granted to the few and denied to the many. He wants to see the credit of tbe town mantained and has a good word for every man, woman, and child and every just and honorable business enterprise. He lauds tbe citizens of his town. He kicks against extravagance and pleads for economy and just expenditures. He glories in everything that will spread the fame of the town to nee it forge ahead.

No elector shall be deemed a qualified enrolled elector who has not enrolled since August 1st, 1911. In many cases it will uot be convenient for an elector to appear before the board in person on April 1st and the law provides that an elector may enroll at any time by delivering in person or by mail, to tbe city or township elerk, or officer in charge of the enrollment book, a written request for such enrollment accompanied hy affidavit setting forth that he is a qualified elector and that it is his bona fide intention to affiliate with the political party with which he seeks to enroll. If a voter enrolls by affidavit on or before June 26 he will have the right to vote at the August Primary. A voter who has not enrolled either by application and affidavit or on an enrollment day (exceptas specifically provided) cannot participate in and will not be permitted to vote at a primary election. If a voter neglects or refuses to give the name of his party or if be has none, he shall not be enrolled by the enrollment board. In some sections, owing to looal conditions, voters have enrolled as "Independent" "Citizens" "Socialist" etc., who affiliate in state elections with some other political party. If such enrolled voter desires to change party affilatiou to Republican, Democrat Prohibion, etc., in order to participate in the August Primary he can do so only by personally making application on April 1st, and not by written application and affidavit.

Fact is, for the moment, it was the only thing I saw, Somehow, its splash of yellow there under the shaded lamp seemed to catch my eye and hold it. I screwed, my glass tight and examined the thing with interest. Nothing remarkable; just a tiny, oblong package, bearing curious foreign markings, its wrapper plainly addressed to me, but— HBy Jove! From China!" I ejaculated. jBomebody In far-off China sending xoe a present, with duties and charges prepaid evidently. "Anybody I know In China, Jenkins?" I asked. And to help him out, I Added: "Pact is, some chap's sent me a package, you know." "Xame on box, sir, perhaps." Said it offhand, just like that—no trouble of thinking, dash It all—never even Minked. Just instinct, by Jove! And there it was, nicely printed in the corner with a pen: Holand Mastermann, Government House, Hong Kong, China. I read it aloud—can't read anything, 'you know, unless I read it aloud—and looked at Jenkins inQulringly. But he came right up to the scratch; just seemed to get it from somewhere right out of the wall over my head: "Beg pardon, air; but think it's that London gentleman—entertained you at the Carlton when you were over the other side." Mastermann'. By Jove, so it was— ] began to remember him now, because I remembered his dinner, several of them, in fact, during the three years I had lived over there, acquiring the English accent—manner, you know—and all that sort of thing! Mastermann—oh, yes, I had him, now! Jolly rum old boy, but entertaining and clever—long hair, pink -wart on jaw! And, by Jove, I had promjBed him—promised him—what the deuce wai it I bad promised him? Let me see: he was something or other In the foreign office; yes, 1 had that—and tremendously interested in mummies and psychical Investigation and rum sort of things like that, and— f "By Jove!" I ejaculated, as it came to me., "And for that reason he wanted them to send him out to China," "Beg pardon, sir," put in Jenkins, "but think you had a letter with a Chinese postmark last week." He looked around at my little writing- desk and coughed Blightly behind his hand, "Was just a-wonderlng, sir, if it •night not be among those you haven't opened—there are several piles. If 1 rcigbt look, sir—" I nodded, Fact is, I allow .Jenkins much privilege, owing to long service. Then, you know—oh, dash it, he's so •original—so refreshing and that sort of thing—so surprising. Just as in this case, he thinks of so many devilishly ingenious, out-ol'-the-way sort of things! It was Jenkins' idea that I find out what was in the. box by just opening the dashed thing while he looked for the letter. Clever that, eh? Well, rather! So I unsheathed my little pocket manicure knife, cut the strings and removed the wrapper.- ^Inside was Just a little, straw-covered box with a telescope cover and inside the box, •wrapped in tissue, was a tight roll ttt bright red silk. That was all—not another thing but this little silk roll. It was. a wad as thick as three Angers and perhaps twice as long, tied with a bit of common string, ending in a loose bowknot. I pinched the roll gloomily. "If It's a red silk muffler, Jenkins, catch me wearing it, that's all!" 1 burst out indignantly. "Rotten bad form, It you ask me. I'd look like an out-and-out bounder!" Then I bad a horrible thought: "Or—or the Salvation Army, dash • it!-' Here Jenkins thrust a letter at me. "'Perhaps this may. explain it, sir/' he suggested. Sate enough, it was from Hong Koasv «ftd from that chap, Mastermann. Out there on special mission for bis government, he said. I don't •v w , * a a t *K was—nave* did- know, "v ifctacV for I skipped down to this ^^sgragraph, which I read aloud: • 1¾ f ^^vetrjmff of thote rare cigars you ^ ^ i M ' s V - l H s l - l r a t reminded tt« ttttfor 4a»JN^>6wit still unpaid * ' T T readihu* l«rj then I read It again. bv FRANCIS PDRKf ^ IM43STRAMONS ty MYWAiTtii* stantly, but seemed embarrassed for a reply. "Oh, I say, you know!" I urged him. He started to speak, then pulled up. His breath went out in a sort of sigh. And he just stood there looking at me, and looking kind of scared. Fact! Perfectly irreproachable service for five years; and now here, dash It, showing emotion and that sort of thin*:, just like—well, like people, by Jove! Gad, I don't mind saying I was devilish put out! I screwed my glass rather severely and he made another go: "I hope, Mr. Lightmit, sir, you'll try to pardon me, sir, but I— Well, indeed, sir, the mistake wasn't mine; it was the dealer's fault, you know, sir." "Oh!" Jenkins cleared his throat with an effort, his eyes rolling at me apologetically. When he spoke there was a tremble in his utterance, and it was rather husky: "Why, sir," he began in a low tone, "you told me to have your dealer ship this gentleman, this Mr. Mastermann, a dozen boxes of Paloma perfectos— your favorite brand, you know, s i r - ninety dollars the hundred." He paused, bis fingers resting tremblingly on the edge of the table. • "An error, sir, of the shipping clerk. He—" With a murmured apology, Jenkins paused to wipeJUs forehead. I saw that the perspiration had gathered in great drops. Tfien he seemed to gather himself for a resolute effort, his eyes fixing themselves upon me with the most extraordinary oxpres- Lion—kind.of half-frightened, half-desperate glare—-that sort of thing, don't you know. I began tp feel devilish uncomfortable and edged aw^y. And he made another plunge: ^Thjey sent him—" And, dash me if he didn't stick again! It just looked like he couldn't get past. But I encouraged him—Just like you have to do a horse, you know —and this time he got over: "They sent him a dozen boxes of 'Hickey's Pride,' sir, Instead!" Ho spoke in a low, choking voice and looked me full in the eye—the kind, of look you get when a chap's boxing with you, you know—that sort of thing. CHAPTER I I . An Ominous Discovery. I was puzzled. '"Hickey's Pride?'" I repeated thoughtfully. "I don't seem to recall that one. Do I smoke It often?" Jenkins seemed to gasp. "You? Certainly not, sir! Never!" the hair slowly rising on each side of my part. He bent close, whispering behind his hand, and I knew he had been eating radishes for dinner: "It's what's known in the trade, sir, as a 'twofer.'" "A 'twofer!'" I repeated, puzzled. "Two for flva, sir." Jenkins spoke faintly. "I'm sure I'm ashamed to mention to a perfect gen—" "By Jove, I know!" I lifted my finger suddenly. "I know now the kind you mean—big, fat, greasy-looking ones—the sort Vanderdecker and Colonel Boylston smoke over at the club." I shook my head. "Too jolly thick and heavy for me. So they're two for a 'V—eh? Oh, I see—'twofers!' By Jove!" A brand uew one, this—a ripper! I made up my mind to spring it on the fellows first chance—that is, if 1 could remember the jolly thing. I just looked at Jenkins' solemn face and laughed. "Oh, I say, Jenkins—hang the expense, you know!" I remonstrated In some disgust. For this London chap had given me no end of a good time, you know; and it's such devilish bad form—rotten, I say—haggling about expense when you want to make a come-back and do the handsome. I was jolly glad the mistake had happened. Just here I remembered the letter and went at it again, for I was keen to find out, if possible, if It was a muffler under the string. So I fixed my glass and read on: "Realizing what these cigars are. I have given them, from time to time, to friends of mine—and others.-Keally, I-don't think I ever had such unselfish, unalloyed pleasure from anything in my life. Gave one to a bus driver out Earl'a Court way—chap who had never been known to speak to man, woman or child in years, and, after-he. lighted it—well, my word! He opened' up and grew so bally loquacious I had t o g e t off. "Had been trying to get Jorglns, my chief, to send me out here again to China, but he was ever finding some. package came to the office, the first thing I did after I had tried the cigars was, to hand the old iceberg a box with my compliments. "Five minutes after, he came back, completely thawed out. Fact is, never saw him so warm toward any one. Asked me if the other boxes were to be given away outside. Said no; that his was the only box I could spare; was going to keep 'em all there at the office and smoke 'em myself. Never saw a man so moved—so worked up over little thing. Next day he sent me out here to China. left to write, horizontally; they mourn in white Instead of black, and they are awfully honest and pay their debts. "But there is one other point of difference still queerer: they wear pajamas all day, while we wear them only at night." Here I yawned. Always hate that heavy, historical, Instructive stuff, you know. If you have to hear it, gives you headache, unless you can slip off to sleep first. , \ So I reached the letteV up to Jenkins.. J "Just run over the res^ of it yourself, and see if he says anything about his present," I said, settling comfortably. Clever idea of mine, don't you thiuk? And I was just dropping my head to have a snug little nap—just a little forty, you know—when, dash me, II I didn't have another idea! Awfully annoying, time like that. Mind is so devilish alert, dash It! Always doing things like that; can't seem to get over it, you know. And this ripping Idea that bobbed up now and got me all roused up was nothing more or less than to untie the string myself and see what the thing was, See? "I believe, sir," said Jenkins, looking up, "the gentleman has sent you— h'm—has sent you—" "By Jove, a suit of pajamas!" I exclaimed, holding them up. It was neck and neck, but I beat Jenkins to It, after all! "Gentleman says, sir," continued Jenkins, studying the letter, "that his present of a pair of pajamas may seem surprising, but you won't know how surprising until you have worn them." "Jolly likely," { admitted, feeling the silk. By Jove, it was the finest, yet thinnest stuff I ever saw, soft as NO OBJECTIONS FROM TQNY "Lovablo Lljttle Ch*p" Probably Would Not HaVe ^Indqd a Succes. slon of *Tynn«!s. Being Sunday evening, and the races having taken place that afternoon, the trains were packed. In one compartment a little boy had been stndlng all the way, but before the journey bad proceeded much farther Mrs. Jones kindly took him on her knee. "Were you very frightened, dear, as we passed through the tunnel?" the gentle lady asked. "Not much," replied the little boy, shyly. "But I thought you trembled a little as I kissed you," remarked Mrs. Jones, who was not even middle-aged yet "And what's your name?" "Tony," same the answer. "Then you're a very lovable little chap! And how old are you?" "Twenty-five, ma'am." And Tony Spurs, the lightweight jockey, slid to the floor to the accompaniment of a piercing scream,—Answers, u u i u n , uuv UTS n o o t i n n u u u i b euiuc*- - cold, beastly evasion.

How jolly red they were! We spread them under the light, and the red seemed to flow all over the table and fall from the edge. Why, they were as red as— I tried to think of something they were as red as, but somehow 1 couldn't fetch the Idea. I thought or red ink and blood and fireworks, but they didn't seem to be up to them at all. And a big, velvety petal that dropped from one of the crimson roses just seemed brown beside them. I was wondering whether the little spider was curious about the Jolly red color there below him. And just then Jjenkins' hand-went out and swept at the little thread. The spider dropped and shot into a fold of the pajamas. "I say! Look out*" I exclaimed as Jenkins made another clutch. "Don't mash the beast on the silk; you'll ruin it—the silk, I mean!" "There it goes, sir!" said Jenkins eagerly. "Over"Uy your hand." "No; by Jove; he's gone into a leg of the pajamas!

After C*rrv»ntlona Are Over Men Who , Are Now Fighting Each Other Will $ e Found Working for ^ Party Choice. / By GEORGE CLINTON. 1 Washington.—There is strife in Washington between the force* at- Itached to the .different headquarters bf the varioua candidates ot both pa* fclea for the presidency of the United fetates. Mr. Taft'a managers on their fcmrt and Mr. Roosevelt's managers on Ihelr part are sending letters back and forth full of bitterness, Innuendo and other things which are not at all nice .reading to those who think that the fcluw la come for peace on earth even S«ong $oQtteian.fV The sam* thing Is Untvldtoc'e among th* Democratic toa'nagera. It must be said, however, (that until a few days ago the Democratic champions of the different party jcandidates managed, to keep the peace. Now, however, things have cfcangM and "Chargertre-goteg'^aek and forth, and the Republican camp land the Democratic camp look very ruch alike. Politicians of both parties here say Ithat history will repeat Itself and (that after the conventions are over the toen who are calling one another bamea will be found shoulder to Bhoulder working on behalf of the nominees no matter whom they may fee and wtyl be entirety forgetful of everything that they said tn the days preceding 4&e convention. What Is the httrt^ry which has repeated itselft (Virtually tt is the history of every ^"qpatgn, T>p*ocratlf an* ^B^J!0*?!, which has been put on the. pages of the country's record, although there have been admittedly one or two campaigns in* both parties in which bitterness lasted at^tr the ceo vent ion days. I Four pears ago now the Republican party was split just as it is today, - only (the "eldest; were different. Men who nre championing Mr. Taft'a nomlna- Won'now^ war* opposed to him when he was a seeker for the nomination the last tfine, and men who were for him then i are now against himr although 7 of course, this 1B not to be accepted as an absolutely comprehensive , xule. , *'-* M Ar&HnflWfy Taft. .'The champfonsr 0^¾^.

It was said four years ago that theae men would carry their animosity into the campaign in case Taft ,. Were nominated, but the prophecy ved ill founded. It was Theodore ilrton &f Ohio who presented Mr. 'a name to the convention of bis rty. It was the beginning of the day of harmony, and notice Mr. Burton's honeyed words' as addressed to th*» friends of the other candidates in the convention hall: welcome the friendly rivalry of a^es from other states—from the great Empire State, the Keystone state,, Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin, 'V. .1 f o r # l t f Vtth Otrfo a broad.expanse ex Itenxilrjg In unbroken sweep^from old ocean to lho-UPP«rmoat.boundeQ.f t h e ^ r * ™ ^ ; ° * gwatesttff -inlahd seas.

The Daughters will gath- {er in their beautiful colonial memorial building before long to engage in their antroal struggle for the election of officers, and when that is over to drop animosities and to work for the causes which brought the organization Into existence.. Ono needs neither prose nor poetic license to speak of the delegates to these conventions as "fair daughters" for surely they are a body of comely women, and the shades of the forefathers that are supposed to float about the capital city of the land that they made, need not. fear that a flush will steal into their cheeks or a frown furrow their -ehadowy brows at the sight of degeneracy in their descendant daughters. When spring comes the guides In the capitoi whose duty it Is to pilot visitors about earn their daily wage with half the usual effort because the guided ones In large majority are the Daughters of the American Revolution. The guides who are obliged to talk themselves tired explaining things to the ordinary tourist simply walk ahead of the daughters and point to pictures or bast and the tongues of the daughters do the rest Show Their Birth. The Daughters gather from all the states in the Union. It was not hard the last time they were here to separate Into localities of birth and bringing up those who attended an afternoon service at St. John's Episcopal church. It was not a service for the daughters, it as Just a plain everyday evening prayer, and the daughters had dropped in to see the historic building from a pew view. The spirits ot their ancestors still dwelt within them. There were thbse from Massachusetts with the Ironside blood in their veins, and those from- Tennessee and Kentucky who In the person the old Covenanters live again. Then there were the Virginians, the New Yorkere and the- South Caroliniansdaughters, so to speak, of the old Wc^'Sfflrctaary a t Jamestown, towering Trinity and gray St. Michael's. At e^n*ohg in St: John's thfc daughters of "New England, Tennessee and Kentucky ,4ooked upon marble altar, cross and candle stick and apparently felt stirring within them something of the sternness of the spirit of their ancestors who struck hard-flsted blows at things savoring ot prelacy. True to family tradition and to the division line1 of things spiritual, the descendants of the Independent and Presbyterian sat bolt unright during the chanting of the creed. Their sisters whose ancestors had stood for church and king until they were forced to cut the bond and to help kick the king out of the partnership, made all amends for their companions' ritual and spiritual shortcomings, and knelt and stood, and even genuflected at times, in a good old high church way that Would have delighted Archbishop Laud. Rocky Boy Now Is Happy. Word came to the Indian bureau the other day that Ohief Rocky Boy and his Indians in the far northwest were satisfied with the home life, being contented and happy. Chief Rocky Boy onoe was very much in the congressional limelight. For years this Indian chief and his following had been wandering about the country, homeless, unable to hunt and doing little else but b§g for a livelihood. Finally congress took action and the wandering mendicants were given a place to live. Former Senator Beveridge of Indiana Is given credit for having done something for whose picturesque and «.*Oi». .

The hero of the Joke was a man who had married because the woman had much money, although no beauty. Naturally, after the wedding ceremony and the acquisition of the bride's financial resources, the hus- . band was never very attentive to her. Another member of the company in which the couple were appearing was, however, far more appreciative of the lady's charms, and proceeded \q make love to her In an ardent but stealthy manner. The grand finale came one evening "when the actor discovered the other man kissing his wife. The fond lover stood petrified with fear, and expected to be shot down the next moment. No such thing happened. The outraged husband only lifted his hands toward the celling with a gesture of intense surprise, and exclaimed: "Merciful heavens! And he didn't even have to!" butcher*. $7 l i g h t y o r k - : off. E A S T B r F l ' U L O . X.

OAVKKLY, JPub, PlNCKXUY, - - - MICHIGAN ENGLISH SPEECH FOR CHINA. As nobody knows even approximately the number of inhabitants in tbe *ast Chinese domain, so, perhaps, no- Tbody can gay definitely and positively ihow niany distinct dialects are spoken by U»e peoples of the different provinces. A recent authority puts the number at "over a hundred." So widely differing in many respects are many of these dialects that they constitute practically distinct languages. To endeavor to group, combine and stan- 4arize these languages Into one common speech for tbe whole empire •Would be a- work of many years and of immense difficulties. In fact, it would 6eem to be an undertaking involving greater difficulties than the Introduction of a complete new tongue. And It must be remembered that the official and educated classes are familiar •already with English. The language Is taught in the universities and many of the schools. It is the common medium of official communication with other governments. At the same time, the leaders of the new movement are enthusiastic frieudB of our country. If tbe republican movement shall succeed, that success may be followed by Ue transformation of the Chinese Into an English-speaking people. It was noted In these columns recently that the price of platinum in the New York market had risen to the highest figure ever reached—over seven hundred dollars a pound. All over the world the demand for platinum arising from the use of the metal in electrical appliances has made it highly prized, In connection with this subject a curious story comeB from Paris. It is said that a number of twentyfranc gold pieces forged in the reign of Napoleon III., have been found to be worth at least double their face value. This is due to the fact that in tbe alloy of which thes* forged coinB were made platinum was used. At that time platinum was cheap. A pound weight of It could be bought for a few sovereigns. The spurious twenty- franc pieces contain about six grammes of platinum each, and today these six grammes are worth about A crusade on "fads and frills" in the public schools of the city is to be started In New York, with_more thoroughness and less experimentation as its slogan. Everywhere there seems stirring this revolt against tbe excessive system of experiment to which the schools bare been subjected, with corresponding loss of thorough grounding In essentals. The educational the* ories of the present seem to share the prominent American craze for speed, more or less regardless of the risks involved in attaining it Tbe agitation, which appears to be general, will doubtless result In restoring the pendulum, which has swung too far In both directions of conservatism and progress, to its normal swaying. It's well to be clean, but if you wash your rugs with gasoline, be careful. A Springfield, Mass., merchant, who Is fastidious, had his office rugs scrubbed with gasoline and then gone over with a vacuum cleaner operated by electricity. Tbe cleaner collected gasoline fumes which were Ignited by an electric spark, whereupon there was an explosion and a blaze necessitating a call on the fire department That collision between a steamship in the merchant service and a United States armored cruiser In the harbor of Honolulu, in which tbe cruiser was eo badly damaged as to necessitate- immediate retirement for repairs, while tbe merchant ship steamed off apparently uninjured, might be cited as illustrating Kipling's assertion to the effect that the "weaker vessel" is the deadlier of the two. Prof. Worthington told a London audience that in order tc obtain pictures of what happened when a drop of water fell into a vessel containing water he had taken photographs by an electric "spark of the duration of three taiUtonths of a second. Some day, perhaps, Prof. Worthington will be able to take a photograph of the drug etoje soda-fountain wink.

An at it nipt was made by un anarchism to assassinate Kiug Victor Emmanuel of Italy in Home as he was riding with Qtieen Helena to the Pantheon to attend a memorial service ou the anniversary of the funeral of his father, King Humbert, who was shot to death by an anarchist near Milan on July 29, 1900. The royal carriage was passing through the Plaxa of Veniza when a man who had been standing in the crowd which lined the curb, drew a revolver and fired point-blank at the king. The shot mussed its mark, but wounded Maj. Langa, commander of the bodyguard of the Royal Cuirassiers, who was riding at the side of the carriage. The man quickly fired a second and third shots before those who stood beside could overpower him. He was preparing to shoot again when lie was overpowered. The royal guard, who had been attending the king, closed in around the royal carriage and screened the king with their own bodies. So angry was the crowd that the assassin was nearly beaten to death before he was rescued by soldiers and -police. Men and women were tearing at his hair and stamping on him.

Trousdale employed the simplest sort of a ruse to balk the robbery. The holdup was staked ntar the Mexican border. Trousdale was recently promoted to his run from the San Antonio offices of the express company. One of the robbers, who held Trousdale at the point of a rifle In a corner, was ransacking the express car. "I'm not going to strap with you all," remarked^, Trousdale. "I'm not getting flghting""wages." "Oh, all right," replied the bandit. "Then YOU will have to help us get this stuff across the Rio Grande." "Why don't you pick up that package?" casually Inquired Trousdale, as he kicked at a. small box on the floor of the car. "It's worth more than all the stuff you've got." The robber stooped, deceived by the ruse, to pick up the package. Truesdale grasped a heavy mallet and struck. The bandit received the llow full on the head. He fell over, dead. There was no alarming outcry. Trousdale picked up the dead robber's gun and waited. Meanwhile the second of the bandits had been working on the car ahead. When he completed his job he hurried back to the express car. As his form loomed in the doorway the express messenger fired. The bandit tumbled to the ground, dead.

The Aliens, murderers of the Carroll (Virginia) county court, have been located. Hacked by several followers as desperate and lawless as themselves, they are in hiding near Devil't Den, close to Dancy Gap, on the crest of the Blue Ridge range. A posse of 500 detectives and deputy sheriffs, all of them trained mountain fighters, armed with Winchestei rifles, have moved out inro the moun tains back of Hillsville determined tc take every member of the gang, dead or alive. The Aliens are lodged on a mountain thick with ^aurel,. rugged and abrupt. It would 6e au easy matter for them, from their high vantage point, to pick .off one by one any band that would attempt to scale this rutural fortress. There may be a bloody hand-to-hand fight between the cutlaws and the pursuers, but it looks as if the members of the posse would move with great caution and attempt to get the Aliens by a carefully planned campaign. The government authorities already have stationed, guards in the mountain gaps for the purpose of heading off any attempt on the part of the outlaws to move into North Carolina ov Tennessee.

Czar May Join Italy in Fight. A rumor is wldesnwad In London that Italy is meditating the bombardment of Saloniea. It Is believed Russia is contemplating an energetic policy in the near east, perhaps in secret agreement with Italy. Russia never had such wealth at the disposal of the government as now. The budget exceeds $1,^00,000,000 and the receipts exceed the expenditures by $500,000,000.

The "BBrriitiisshh" government first step toward parliamentary action to end the national coal strike. At a special meeting of the cabinet Premier Asquith submitted to his colleagues the draft of a minimum wage bill which had been drawn up by Chancellor David Lloyd-George. The premier announced that the joint conference had failed to bring about a settlement and explained that the situation was now op to the government. It is believed that King George has already approved the bill which may be introduced in parliament Tuesday if it can be wrought into shape by that time. The government, realizing that the full burden now rests with its machinery, will hasten matters as much as possible. - • . 180,000 Coal Miners May Strike.

I advise such treatment, especially for rough,*scaly bark on 0¼ trees; but if it be bark that has been roughened by the injurious action of soil sprays, or by burning with fire or some other injury, I am satisfied it would be wrong, because this Is the tender bark beneath just what a scab of an animal is to a sore which It is protecting. Therefore, if the bark beneath be tender, so that it would be injured by being scraped, it is best not to do it. In the case of an ordinary healthy tree It la certainly best, but at injured places, such as above mentioned, it is advisable to scrape gently, if at all. On an old tree one cannot apply enough pressure with a short-handled hoe or bark scraper to do any injury, and this will remove many insect pests, such as coddling moth, woolly aphis and certain hibernating creatures, and expose scale insects and other pests to the action of the weather, and of the, insecticides to be applied before the leaves appear. ulimwi mmniim n. , , ^ ,n ,,.11,,11 •'• • -r - « , ; , < , . . . . i 1 1 11 . .

JAPANESE PLUM VERY HARDY Will Grow on Almost Any 8oil and Do Not Need Particular Coddling— Come On Early. Plums of the Japanese variety are popular with most growers, particularly in the east, because they are hardy and come on early. Many of these varieties are the earliest in the market, and as they are always of good color, either cherry reds or light yellows, they sell readily and bring good prices. They will grow well on almost any kind of decenT~sofl, and do ntft need to be particularly coddled, although they should have all the care that any good fruit tree deserves. These trees were planted four years ago in soil from which pine scrub had ftbeen grubbed only a few weeks before. The trees are bearing well and show fine color and great vigor. These Japanese plums differ from ua&inv t h e d o m e 8 t l c varieties in that Its nAWPi-fieaves are longer, thinner and smoother, and it has a great tendency to produce lateral fruit buds on the annual growth, It's Crult is mostly short, round and plump. The Japanese plum is less liable.to injury from curculio and black knot than the domestic variety. Mr. Fulierton says that up to this time his trees have shown no signs of disease or attack from insects of any kind. That little tot whoso trousers are only about as long as your hand Is an Important personage when It comes to fitting him out with raiment There is all the difference in the world in the appearance he makes when he is just cut down and sewed up and when be is suitably and picturesquely dressed. Not only are his little clothes carefully finished, but they often have some magic touch of handwork which quite places them in the out-of-theusual class. Every mother wants her boy or girl to take a prominent place In this class. Johnny Smith may look all right in his made-by-the-dozen suits and so long as he Is clean maybe there is no criticism due him—but the mother with alert taste just can't bear her own child to look like any nice boy you see in the streets. He simply must bear that extra touch, which is so hard to give to a boy, where as with a little girl it can be done easily. Just now the more small children look like quaint little men the better. They are perfect pictures In summer with their pretty little tub suits in colors. The little man illustrated has boyish trousers, open at the knees, with sailor collar and tie, big broad belt and pIpingB in a different material. Sometimes the suit is made in striped or corded white with collar and trimmings of solid color. Sometimes the order is reversed. The belt gives the style to the suit A Russian blouse effect is obtained in another suit The kimono yoke is cross, stitched in a design out on the DAINTY HOLDER FOR SPILLS Ornamental Receptacle of Use in Households Where Economical Ways Are Practiced.

CURLS NO LONGER IN VOGUE Their Tremendous Popularity a Thing of the Past, at Ueaat for the Coming Spring. _ V Hairdressing is always rather a vexed question when the new spring bats make their appearance. Curls, which perhaps represented one of the prettiest types of coiffure which have been in vogue for a long tinse past, have simply died of a too^xtended popularity, and the pretty shining bunchee arranged so Imxsaculately by the hairdresser have ceased to exist for the well-dressed woman. That wt have all of at felt the loss of them there is no doubt, bat the preeeat fashion is even easier of manipulation that the carls. It rwjuiree, however, extraneous aid and consists of a roend frame covwred with hair, which is arts the form of a wide plait oft over i t The frame is pinned securely to the Head^^nd coils of the natural heir art twlated groond. ft, being held in place with the wide tortoise-shell pins of which ertry woman posoMiso a large aoppiy nowadays.

The cardboard is smoothly covered with silk sewn securely together at the edges, and then the piece of material which forms the pocket may next be sewn in its place; it should be lined with soft silk. But prior to doing this, howeveT, the floral design must be embroidered upon it, and this may easily be wprked from our illustra tion or some pretty design might be painted. The holder is entirely outlined with a silk cord ot a fancy pattern carried into three little loops at the top and bottom and again on either side. The holder can bo suspended from a nail in the wall by the center loop of the silk cord at the top. I.

Laces are more modish than Tor ages, and that is ono thing that makea them s o 0 valuable. Everyone wants lace for gowns, and even Imitations cost. Wo see lace on hats, on furs and on all kinds of gowns, Sometimes the lace is touched with chenille or embroidery, but for velvets it is generally used plain. The newest use for lace is putting it about the heads for young matrons, says the Indianapolis News, Young girls now wear their hair quite plain. The lace is mostly very open, allowing the hair to show through, and in some cases the hair is pulled through, much the same as mouaseline was pulled through the little interstices a few years ago. locks from the hairdresser achieve by far the prettiest coiffures. The simple Greek hairdressing, with the hair parted in the center of the head, and rolled up in a soft pouf, low down at the ears, with Just a knot or coil behind, is so pretty in the case of the girl who owns fair hair with a nat> oral wave in it, that it makes every artificially dressed head look unattractive by comparison. Such a coiffure pays all the debts which are owed to fashion by proving so infinitely becoming to the wearer. * ^ NEiWS O F MICHIGAN « .' s The use of peeJtfMaJa always per mlsslbie, prov quality and just able.

The case was tried here lust spring and the Jury found no cause of action. Later, the supreme court, on a showing that one of the jurors was related to one of the parties interested in the suit, Bent the case back here for retrial. The testimony showed that Laubengayer had left th« team standing on a crosswalk for a minute and the child coasted under the feot of the animals.

Now if everybody was to use the bakers product and not make bread or biscuits the consumption of flour would be far below what it is today Here is another point; the demand for bran and middlings is increasing every year on account of the increase of the dairy business. You can figure it out for yourself Mr. Con. turner. Ton can help by using winter wheat flour and making yonr own bread thus creating a demand for the flour.

The plot lies in Vermont au<lorginates from what is called the "Old Quarry"on Brook dale farm which the villian,Gilbert Dawson, (Louis Monks) is trying to de fraud the rightful owner, Sqnire Brooks (Amos Clinton) of, in order to obtain the granite which he has discovered there, But just when the villian has succeded in getting the, 8qnire to deed him the "Old Quarry" he is foiled by the hired man, Epbraim Gteeo, (LeeTiplady) who has discovered the real value of the quarry. Tbe villian secretly enters the Sqaire's house to search for the deed but is surprised in this by the Squire whom he kills and flees. Roy Hart, thehero,(Leo Lavey) comee upon the scene and is discovered bending over the murdered man by his fiancee, Marian Brooks, (Florence Reason) who accuses him of the murder. All the evidence being against him he is compelled to flee.

Not a few of the birds are so benumbed with cold that one can approach near enough to knock them over with a club. From the light bouse on the northern end of Grand Island one may see thousands of these birds. As no water is in sight as far sa one can see with tbe strongest glass owned here the supposition that hundreds if not thousands of these birds are perishing of hanger and thirst seems a reasonable one.—Bdunising News.

The demand for winter wheat flour ia^decreasing every year because of the fact that the people of this country are buying bakers bread. Now if everybody was to'CsS'the bakers product and not make bread or biscuits the consumption of flour would be far below what it is today Here is another point; the demand for bran and middlings is increasing every year on account of the increase of the dairy business. You can figure it out for yourself Mr. Con. aumer. ^ You can help by using winter wheat flour and making yonr own bread thus creating a demaud for the flour. Unless we sell the flour we cannot make the bran and middlings. Now we are doing a good business and are'not knocking our customers, but we could do mora and so could any other mill in ^Michigan or any other st4te.

FIRE James Henry's Residence Destoyefl M Fire . WTih e farm house of James Henry near Lakeland was d&stroyed by fire about 5:30 o'clock Saturday morningr The fire Which is supposed to have resulted from a defective chimney, gained such a start before it was discovered that only a very small portion of the household goods were saved. Mr. Heury's neighbors promptly came to his aid and as the house was too far gone, directed their efforts toward saving thd outbuildings none of which were damaged. The loss is only partially covered by insurance. This is the second time that Mr. Henry has been burned out, t h e first fire occuring seveu or eight yea^a ago.

Ripon was attended by a good sized audience. The musical part of t h e program consisted of a selection by Miss Lola Moran entitled the "Old Red Cradle" which was sung by Miss Moran in her usual sym-| pathatic manner. A male tette, composed ot Messrs H. Swarthout, E E. Hoyt, A. Vedder and P. H. Swarthout sang "God Bless My Boy" which was well received by the appreciative"" audience. The "Heavenly City" wag the next number. This sacred solo was rendered by Mr. Thomas Garrity, formerly of Detroit. Mr. Garrity has an exceptional fine voice which he uses to the best advantage. Mr. J. C. Dinkel playplayed several sacred pieces on his graphanolo which those present thoroughly enjoyed. The above selections were w^ll rendered and those abseut missed a rare treat. Rev. Ripon took for his subject "This is That" and said that he did not believe in thj evolutionary theory- of "Darwin regarding the creation of man, He explained the Darwinian theory of evolution, and then said that the bible theory of the creation of man was the only theory worthy of the dignity of man, and then explained that everything that iB, is the outcome of that which has been. He quoted Solomn,'kThere is no new thing under the sun." His illustrations, which were mostly taken from the bible were apt and well selected. He went on to say,' that there are no trifles with God, because God sees things not merely as they are but as they will eventually become. H e sees them in rheir final state and we see them in theit beginnings. Rev. Ripon has a very fluent delivery, and is a rapid speaker, sometimes reaching the heights of oratory. T h e Cong'l church should be congratulated in having for their pap tor such a man as Rev. Ripon, whose theological training; enables him to give repeated bible illustrations which is always a source of enlightenment and inspiration to all. Mrs. C. S. Henry Mary S.

Keith did the *ame, his eyes peering across the .4 back of his animal. *• "Now," he said steadily, "when l I""*, count three drive your horse aside, 'wjftnd let go—are you ready?"

There was a grim smile on Ms lips, as if, as he pitched forward, he knew that, after he had been shot to death, he had gotten bis man. The riderless horses gazed at the two figures, and drifted- away, slowly, fearfully, Btill held in mute subjection to their dead masters by dangling relnB. The sun blazed down from directly overhead, the heat waves rising and falling, the dead, desolate desert stretching to the sky. An hour, two passed. The horses were now a hundred yards away, nose to nose; all else was changeless. Then into the far northern; sky there rose a black speck, growing larger and larger; others came from the east and west, beating the air with widely outspread wings, great beaks stretched forward. Out from their nests of foulness the desert scavengers were coming for their spoil. CHAPTER X X X V l l . M£ At the W*ter-Ho»e. Up from the far, dim southwest they rode slowly, silently, wearied | stillby the exertions of the past night, and burned by the fierce rays of thu desert sun. No wind of sufficient force had blown since Keith passed that way, and. they could easily follow the hoof prints of his horse across the sand waste. Brlstoe was ahead, bat 4 brim drawn low, scanning the-heri?on line unceasingly.

Five prisoners, lashed together, the binding rope, fastened to the pommels of the two "Bar X" men's saddles, were bunched together, and behind all came Neb, his black face glistening in the heat Suddenly Brlstoe drew rein, and rose to the full length in the stirrups, shading his eyes from the sun's glare, as he stared ahead. Two motionless black spocts were visible—yet were they motionless? or was It the heat waves which seemed to yield them movement? He drove in bis spurs, driving his startled horse to the summit of a low sand ridge, and again halted, gazing Intently forward. He was >:ot mistaken—they were horses. Knowing instantly what It meant— those riderless animals drifting dero* Hct in the heart of the desert—his throat dry with fear, the scout wheeled, and spurred back to bis party, quickly resolving on a coarse of ^action. Hawley and Keith had met; both had fallen, either dead or wounded. A moment's delay now might cost a life; he would need Fair* bain, but he must keep the girl back, if possible. But could he? She straightened up In the saddle as ho came spurring toward them; her eyes der I'd like ter take a look at, an' 1 reckon you better go 'long. The nigger kin com' up ahead yere with Miss Walte." She struck her horse, and he plunged forward, bringing her face to face with Brlstoe. "What is it? Tell me. what Is it?" "Nothln' but a loose hoss, Miss." "A horse! here on the desert?" looking about, her eyes dark with horror, "But how could that be? Could —could It bo Captain Keith's?" Bristoe cast an appealing glance at Falrbaln, mopping his face vigorously, not knowing what to say, and the other attempted to turn the tide. "Not likoly—not likely at all—no reason why it should be—probably just a stray horse—you stay back here, Miss Hope—Ben and I will find out, and let you know." "No, I'm going," she cried, stifling a sob In her throat. "It would kill me to wait here." She wa3 off before either might raise hand or voice In protest, and they could only urge their horses ln effort to overtake her, the three racing forward fetlock deep In sand. Mounted upon a swifter animal Falrbaln forged ahead; he could see the two horses now plainly, their head3 uplifted, their relnB dangling. Without perceiving more he knew already what was waiting thera oa the sand, and swore fiercely,'aporrtfcg Ma horee merciieaeUr, forgetful of a* else, eve* the girt, t» Ma latoafo feato* to a i l touch: the & • » ~ m « f r b t g g w t to do tMa hrauilf, to be privileged to kill him— but now he was the physician, with no other thought except a hope to save Before his horse had even stopped he flung himself from the saddle, ran forward and dropped on his knees beside Keith, bending bis ear to the chest, grasping the wrist ln his fingers. As the others approached, he glanced up, no conception now of aught save hip r*wn professional work. "Water, Brlstoe,' he exclaimed with closed eyes, over the whiter face resting on her lap, her lips trembling with the one prayer, "Oh, God! Oh. God!" How long he was at it, or what he did, Bhe scarcely knew—she heard the splash of water; caught the flash of the sun on the probe; felt the ha'lf conscious shudder of the wounded man, whose nead was in her lap, the dett, quick movements of Falrbaln, and then— "That's it—I've got it—missed the lung by a hair—damn me I'm proud of that job—you're a good girl." She looked at him, scarce able to see, her eyes blinded with tears. "Will—will he live? Oh, tell me!" "Live! Why shouldn't he?—nothing but a' hole to close up—nature'U do that, with a bit of nursing—here, now don't you keel over—give me the rest of that skirt." ....-..._ — He bandaged the wound, then glanced about suddenly. "How's the other fellow?" "Dead," returned Bristoe, "shot through the heart." "Thought so—have seen Keith shoot before—I wonder how the cuss ever managed to get him." As he arose to ms feet, his red face glistening with perspiration, and began strapping his leather case, the others rode up, and Bristoe, explaining the situation, set the men to making preparations for pushing on *to the water-hole. Blankets were swung between ponies, and the bodies of the4 dead and wounded deposited therein, Arm hands on the bridles. Hope rode close beside KeithT struggling to keep back the tears, as she watched him lying motionless, unconscious, scarcely breathing. So, under the early glow bT-the desert Btars, they came to the water-fioie* and baited. The wounded man opened his eyes, and looked about him unable to comprehend. At first all was daric, silent; then he saw the stars overhead, aa4 a breath of air fanned the near-by tire, the ruddy glow of flame flashing across his face. He heard voices faintly, and thus, little by little, consciousness asserted itself and memory struggled back into his bewildered Drain. The desert—the lonely leagues of sand—his fingers gripped as H they felt the stock of a gun—yet that was all over—he was not there—but he | was somewhere—and alive, alive. It hurt him to move, to. breathe even. and after one effort to turn over, he lay perfectly still, staring up into the black arch of sky, endeavoring to think, to understand—where was her How had he come there? Was Hawley alive aleo? A face bent over him, the features faintly visible in the flash of firelight. His dull eyes lit up in sudden recollection. "Doc! is that you?" "Sure, old man," the pudgy fingers feeling his pulse, the gray eyes twinkling. "Narrow squeak you had—going to pull through all right, though— no sign of fever." "Where am I?" "At the water-hole; sling you ln a blanket, and get you into Lamed tomorrow." There was a moment's silence. Keith finding it hard to speak. "Hawley—?" he whispered at last "Oh, don't worry; you got him all right. Say," his voice sobering, "maybe it was just as well you took that job.

So he was to Theodore Hoose- **!t. \l' r?: ,.,^:-. ^ Many, things showing the affection between Mr. Koosevelt and Mr. Taft are brought to mind today by the breach between 4wo men who once came as, near, to being oke as Human circumstance* W^uld admit. One night in D*iembenl907;-two or three jnoiibs TOtoft MP; 'Taft became an announce <*&ndf*Std"Tor the nomination, President Roosevelt, talking to some friends in the White House, said that the country was calling certain legislative policies •'the--, Roosevelt .pedicles." Then he said JJbat be did nek know whether tuey.arefe Koosevelt policies or Taft policies. His uncertainty as to the proper name was due, he said, to the fact that long before he had any thought that one day he might be president of the United States he was thinking along lines of what he considered to be proper public policlee, and wondering if e»er they might be given^ legislative .effect. While wondering he found, out that another man was thinking along the eame lines and also wondering if his thoughte might one day take the-form oi legislation. The other maft, Mr. Roosevelt said, was William it. Taft. As the story came from Mr. Roose- "relti he entered into a correspondence with Mr. Taft, exchanged views and opinions and found that they were identical. Roosevelt said that from that dafesintU the day he was speakfng the two had been close In counsel. In friendship and in endeavor.

The refusal of the house of representatives to incorporate in ths fortification bill the appropriation of 1150,000 for a site for a coast defense on Cape Henry was a sharp disappointment to most of the good Virginians in the house, ta a good many army officers and unouee* ttonably to the entire population of the tide-water section of the Old Dominion. Fort Monroe today has the safety t>f several American cities In its keeping. It is the outpost defense Of Washington and Baltimore, and with Fort Wool it stands as a sentinel keeping watch over Norfolk and Richmond. The army men and the Virginians think that a third sentinel Bhould be posted, but congressmen have taken issue with them. Across the mingling waters of Chesapeake bay and the ocean lies Cape Charles, whose rough coast Is visible on clear days to the gunners on Monroe's parapets, but if what has been said by supposed experts is true, no projectile which the big guns of the fort can hurl ever is likely to prove effective against battleships steaming into the channel close under the Charles promontory to make the run up the waters leading to the capital. The forts at Cape Henry southward across the entrance to the inland waters, army men seem to think, would nearly perfect the system of defense, but the proposal for a Cape Henry fortification is only one of several plans which have been made from time to time to complete the defenses of the harbor, bay and river. Hints at 8elfl«h Interest. There wa.s a plan first to buiW fc fort on Cape Charlea itself but later this was changed in fartir of a plan to plant big guns on a half submerged Island midway of the entrance to the Chesapeake, This plan was considered by congress several years ago, end there were hints that some selfish interests were connected with It, but no one ever made a direct charge, and there never was any proof advanced of what were but whispered insinuations. It seems to be the full belief of many army officers that one day an additional fortification in the vicinity of the Virginia capeB will be authorized by congress. As things are now It Is said that a foreign fleet with a pilot deserving the name on board the leading chip, could slip into the Chesapeake under cover of a haze while the shore artillerymen, no matter how watchful, would know nothing of the movement until there waB no target to fire at, but the broad wakes of the invading vessels. Fort Monroe is said to be a bulwark of defense In itself, but it seems even to the layman that the picture drawn by some of the congressmen of a capital laid waste by the guns of a foreign fleet, or by troops which had secured a landing back of the present fortifications, is drawn with a free hand guided by a freer imagination. If vessels should succeed in getting by Fort Monroe they would have a hard time getting up the Potomac river, for below Washington the Potomac's channel is safe-guarded. Make an Easy Target. Pictures also have been drawn of the demolition of Richmond and Norfolk by hostile guns. It would seem tnat the Virginia capital and its seaport might be able to rest in confidence that no foe can come up the water to their troubling. The main ship channel at the mouth of the James Is within easy great gun range of the parapets of Fort Monroe, and the gunner who could not hit so fair and confronting a mark as a battleship or a cruiser at double the distance would be discredited after one pushing of the' electric button, and his place would be taken instantly by a man able to drive every projectile home— for the army is not worthless, there are many such men In the artillery ranks. If the marksmen at Fort* Monroe should happen to fall In their gunning there is perhaps little chance that their brother artillerymen at Fort Wood would fail In theirs, for the enemy that would attempt to force a passage of the James would almost brush the mntf!e* of the smaller fort's guns. Artillerymen have occasional chances to test their skill. A government tug tows red triangular pyramids made of cloth stretched on a framework of wood across the line of fire, while the men at the big rifles peg away at the targets drawn through the flee zone at a ten knot gait. In order to make a bit it. is not necessary "to hit," for If it Is found that the shot has made Itself "effective" In space fore and aft of the target, not greater than that which would have been covered by the battleship, a hit is credited. It seems to be a fair system of marking, and ja the only one used by the land and sea artillerymen of the world when firing at moving marks. ^. v Hits at Commerce Court Representative Thetus WJlrettt Sims of Tennessee is the. repre» seatatlr* in . congress . who,. intrc* duced ths bin to abolish ther conmdsce court.

FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY Where the Winters Are Cold and the Snows Deep, Writing from the vicinity David Harum made famous, a man says that he was an habitual coffee drinker, and, although he knew it was doing him harm, was too obstinate to give it up, till all at once he went to pieces with nervousness and insomnia, loss of appetite, weakness, and a generally used-up feeling, which practically unfitted him for his arduous occupation, and kept him on a couch at home when his duty did not call him out. "While in this condition Grape- Nuts food was suggested to me, and I hegan to use it. Although it was in the middle of winter, and the thermometer was often below zero, almost my entire Hying for about six weeks of severe exposure we£ o s Otaftttsts food with a little hi da* luaflttstelB a cup of hot water, till I * » • Wise enough to make Ppstum my tatts beverage.

"The constant marvel to me was bow a person could do the amount of work and endure the fatigue and hardship as I did, on so small an amount of food. But I found my new rations so perfectly satisfactory that I have continued them—using both Postum and Grape-Nuts at every meal, and often tbey comprise my entire meal. "All my nervousness, irritability and insomnia have disappeared and healthy, natural sleep has come back to me.

Hail blustering March! O, no, don't! It is better to sell what you cannot eat than to eat what you cannot sell. If you are in doubt as to whether you have religion or not, ask your wife she knows. Plant less ground to corn and give it better culture. That is all there is to extensive farming Drive some strong pointed irons in the bottom of your ladder before they slip and perhaps cost your life. If a man woula lead a contented life, he must keep on good terms with bis stomach, hin conscience and his wife. Often it takes lumpy ground years to get over one time of working it when too wet. You can't afford it. You need every foot of your land. An excellent spring tonic after sevejral months of hanging around the fireside, is a good sawbuck, a sharp saw and a pile of hard wood. fhe revival of the good old cue torn of cooperative killing of hogs, beef, and sheep among neighbors would solve one cause of the high cost of living so far as the farmers are concerned. Some thlnghs smell worse the more yon stir them. One of these is a polecat,the other is a neighborhood quarrel. The polecat yon may sometimes have to tackle; bdt steer clear of a neighborhood quarrel if yon bave to run for dear life—Farm Journal 8TATI or 0*io, Cmr or TOLEDO J LVOAI Gotnrrr j " Frank 1.

The expression, "Faithful work It always of the same size," appeared in a recently published article. It opens a world of thought to those who pause long enough to consider Buch matters, besides offering a generous share of comfort and encouragement to those who sometimes grow disheartened at th« apparent result of their efforts. It is true that the world is not always as appreciative as it might "be, but then while the world has a big heart and, as a rule, a kindly disposition, It does not always show Us appreciation at the moment, says the Charleston News and Courier. It is Just this apparent lack of encouragement that makes us lose heart at times and wonder whether after all it is worth while to do our b e s t The big things in life «eem to take up so much room In the publio eye that the smaller and Just as worthy matters are crowded o u t At least that 1B the Impression which many persons form who s e e the effects of large efforts, whether they be along constructive, or charitable or educational lines. In a way these effects are spectacular; Indeed there is a large proportion of mankind who require brilliant effects to make them display Interest In passing events. The quiet, unobtrusive worker Intent upon results be accomplishes more than upon the Impression he creates in overlooked many times, and after a while the want of attention given him and t h e lack of encouragement offered him find expression in hie attitude of growing discontent towards life. English contemporates may be assured that the king will have a cordial welcome should be come t o America, but to those who profess to believe that America lost its head, so to speak, in the presence of t h e king's uncle we beg to say that the visit of the royal Governor of Canada was met with a reception that was dignified, but not excessive, nsays the N e w York Herald. The reports that were sent to English papers were nearly all false, and i.othing in the duke's reception could in any way be compared with- the bootlicking and oily homage that is seen daily in London whenever any member of the royal family appears In public. Throwing away lighted matches, cigars and cigarettes is now a misdemeanor in New York, and offenders will h e prosecuted.

This action was taken at a meeting of the board of directors 5n Lansing, attended by directors from Detroit, Grand Rapids, Saginaw, Bay Citq, Lansing, Port Huron and Ann Arbor. Although the organization w a s born but two weeks ago, it already includes 3,022 Michigan teachers and the idea for which it stands is rapidly spreading over the state. A campaign for the formation qf teachers' clubs in interested cities was planned by the board and representatives were appointed to present the movement at the coming meetings of the Schoolmasters' club, The Eastern Michigan Round Table and the Superintendents' meeting in Lansing.

He controls the situation in a large port of Shen Si and Shan Si. The killing of many whose queues had been cut off, the attack on the Nankin delegates at the first outbreak and the desertion of Yuan Shi Kai by hta soldiers, all indicate the reactionary feeling. Furthermore, the republican flags which for a time decorated every house in Peki'n by order, of the police are now displayed only on government buildingB, although the dragon ilng has not reappeared. Puts Ban on Corporation Cash Gifts. Rep. A. Ward Copley of Detroit, sponsor of the corrupt practices bill, which came so close to passage in the last regular session of the state legislature, will offer in the coming special session one of the provisions of the corrupt practices act, as an amendment to any bill providing for a presidential p r e f e r e n c e primary. The amendment will be designed to prohibit corporation campaign contributions. With such an act in force an incident such a s that of W.

A mongrel hen might, in an oc caeioaal instance, lay as many eggs as one that is pure-bred; but the flock will not live up to the standard set by the pure-bred fowls. Pure Breeds. We keep all the way from 150 to 250 chickens, divided into six flocks. We prefer a pure breed to a cross or mongrels, says a writer in an exchange. There is more money in them, and a flock uniform In color adds very much to the appearance of a farm. Our breeds are Buff Plymouth Rocks and White Leghorns. A Convenient Roost.. A good roost is a 2x4 scantling, placed broadside over two 12-inch boards. These two boards form a platform which catch the droppings, and these are worth from 75 cents to a dollar a barrel. Do not place the roosts too high, for the hens will jump, and in so doing will have leg weakness or perhaps bumblefoot. I h r e r t b ^ ^ * . I Young chicks may be kept dry and warm. The early broilers always command the best market. Little chicks will not thrive if penned in a small enclosure. A hen heeds nearly seven times more fresh air in proportion to her size than does the horse. Selecting the hens according to their laying qualities is to some poultrymen a hard proposition. Any one keeping poultry must, of course, have houses to protect them from cold or stormy weather.

Suitable and Pretty Stylet Displayed— Illustrations Show How Effectively Fabrics May Be Handled in Body of Hat and Trimming. All-silk hats and hats of braid and silk are moat prominent among the models for early spring millinery. Silk, The wreath of roses is fashioned c? the Bame silk used with milliner/ stems of mossy-looking chenille matin on a wire support. The flowers aio improved by the introduction of occasional petals in a crepe silk in the same colorings. Fig. 2 is a beautiful model in hemp and silk combined. It is developed in many varieties as to color. The model in gray braid and oerlse silk is finished with a narrow band of feathers and a pair of wings in gray. Two covered buttons add a pretty touch to this tailored hat. It ia very soft and extremely becoming; a simple hat possessing much "class." JULIA BOTTOMLEY. CRULLER PARTY GREAT FUN USE POWDER ON COIFFURES Parisian Idea Is Undoubtedly Pretty, But Is Not Likely to become Popular. in fact, and especially taffeta silk in changeable weaves, is the feature of the season. These and other hats are often trimmed with flowers made also of taffeta. Nothing could be better for a between-season hat, or for general utility mlljlnery. In Fig. 1 a hat in blue glase taffeta shot with vivid green, shows how effectively this fabric may be handled both In the body of the hat and In its trimming. The crown in this model Is made of four pieces set together with a piping of the silk. The under brim is covered with silk laid on plain and the brim edge finished with a double puff. SHORT COAT OF LACE AGAIN The powdered colffur* adapted to modem needs has madfe it3 appearance in Paris. While this ia novel 'it Is fcardly likely to be generally accepted. Tho powdered tresses are now drawn up loosely from tho sides to back toward the crown of the head, where they are built up, not too pretentiously, into colls and puffB, with tiny curls Boftehing any hard outline. When poised at the right angle the coils and puffs nave a very charming effect, and to hold them In place one of the fashionable jeweled bands is drawn round the head. Another version of the coiffure poudr© shows the waved hair parted In the center and simply drawn to the nape of the neck, where it Is arranged in a series of cells. Round the head as a finish there is a coil of twisted pearls, which claspB at the nide with a pearl cabochon. Some women are parting the powdered hair from the forehead to the nape of the neck and then arranging the tresses In shell fashion over the ears, the shell-like coils, being plaited with strings of jet or pearls. This style is very quaint and curiously becoming to the youthful face. Hair dressers and milling* in Paris, who work together in evolving new styles to harmonize with each other's art, are experimenting in ringlets and curls for daytime coiffures. With the present style of hat, which comes low on the forehead, extinguishing all signs of hair, something had to' be done to soften the hard, unbecoming line between neck and hat, and for this ringlets and little neck curls are again being pressed into serrtce.

The guests gathered quietly on the "porch and when the door was opened, it revealed a group of kitchen maids and chefs, much to the delight of the hostess. The guests were ushered Immediately into the kitchen and the fun began with the mixing of ingredients, particular work, and one suggested that he see that every one elso did their share, as a Ijirge sign hung' over the table, "No work, no eat."* When the frying was nearly completed each was given some dough and told to design the most artistic cruller possible and fix it absolutely without help. Such fun as this created, especially to those who knew how, but were not permitted to tell, that a particularly fine design was destined to come out an unsightly mass or a too frail affair would be removed in pieces. A late arrival wa3 handed a plate of fearfully and wonderfully made objects and told to decide which was the best form and general appearance. The hostess had collected a number of suggestive advertisement such as a flour grill, a dish of crullers, a pall of lard, a cookstove. These were mounted on gray cardboard and passepartouted in plaid, making unique and attractive souvenirs. While the coffee was being made ready those who had chosen dishwashing were kept busy at the table. The dishes were large reproductions of the invitations and the favors were tiny coffee pots such aB come in doll sets. As the crullers and coffee were enjoyvd each one told a Joking story in some way connected with cooking.

A woman noted for her careful housekeeping has the inside of all her bureau drawera painted whlto and then treated with a coat of cream-colored enamel. This, she declares, is more sanitary than any lining pad could possibly be, and when cleaning is necessary, all that is required.Is to wipe them out with a damp cloth.

Oftra (planting is first observed on the chart about February 15 of normal years, the first planting taking place fa Aouftfern Florida and Texas, Fifteen, days later corn planting is bbaerved in northern Florida, southern Louisiana and central Texas, and by May 16 the movement had progressed as far north as southern Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont, central New York, northern Wisconsin, Minnesota and North Dakota. The curves In the lines of the chart arte a elgniOcant feature. They indicate the result of influences exerted upon planting by topography, soil renditions, rainfall and latitude. Sometimes one set of influences prevails, sometimes another. Again, several combined influences may be counterbalanced, as It were, by one controlling Influence. For instance, the lines In western Kansas and Nebraska bend slightly northward, instead of abruptly southward, as would be expected la view at their greater altitude. Tbe counterbalancing influence In thUr case is believed to be the character of the soil which, In the -western* gtojcUon of these states.

TRAP IS EASY TO CONSTRUCT Excellent for Extermination of Rats, Also to Catch Rabbits a*d Other Animals. * •< (liy J. W. (JKIKKIN.) Set the trap over a barrel that is* partly filled with water, fasten the faUui£ doors so that they will not fall and lot the rats run through and around the trap fov several nighte— then pull out tho tail that holds the doors, and you will catch every rat that has visited the trap. Two boards ten inches wide and two feet long are uBed for the Bides; one board two feet long and one foot wide for the top; two boards ten inches wide and one foot and six inches in length for the bottom or falling doors. The falling doors should have tin fastened on the top side from where the pivots enter the Bides to the end next to the bait; this will prevent the sharp claws clinging to the board and climbing back, when the doors fall. „ . The description by letter is as follogs: A, bait; BB, on the dotted lines, shows the position of the falling doors when the game enters the lower part of the trap; CC, the entrance to tho trap; DD, the nailB that serve as pivots for the falling doors. I EE, nail-holes in which are the nails that hold the trap unset while the game are getting used to it. Tho bottom part of the trap—that which retains the game after trapping—! should be made of hardwood or should be lined with roofing iron or tin. The bait should be suspended with a small wire and should hang within two or three inches of the floor, or falling doors. If the trap is neatly made and fitted out—BO that all parts work well, there is not the least possible doubt as to tho game it will capture (besides the rats one wishes to exterminate), such as rabbits, squir- REALLY LUSCIOUS HAM M A N Y W A Y S FOR ITS PERFECT PREPARATION.

PREPARATION OF CELERY BED Plant Does Best in Moist, Mucky Soil and In Situations Where Water Supply Is Abundant. Sow celery in March, or beginning Of April in rows in fine, rich soil, and, if dry enough, press the Boil firmly with a roller or the back,of the spade. Keep the seed bed well watered, as celery germinates very slowly. Transplant from .Tune to August. * Celery does best In a moist, mucky soil, and in situations where plenty of water is abundant in the soil. It can bo planted in single or double rows, earthing up as it grows two or three times, and in doing this, care should be taken not to let the.earthy get into the heart of the plant When severe cold weather comes, take up and transplant solidly in a bed close together, and cover gradually with leaves, hay^or straw, as'nocessary to prevent freezing. The various ways of cooking ham, each tried by those who have practiced it, are too numerous to mention. Some steam the ham first, then cover with a coating of flour and water and bake in an open pan. Some boil the ham and finish In the oven and others soak the ham for two days in cold water and then roast on a spit over a dripping pan. It depends on the size of the ham and on the cooking range, and personal tastes. There are few eugar cured hams In this progressive age, so the mode of cooking must necessarily change and the flavor that was once given to the meat by long smoking after it had been steeped in honey or syrup, be added in the process of cooking. An excellent cook says she selects a ham weighing about twelve pounds. A smaller one is apt to have too much bone, with a goodly thickness of fat on one side, for a ham that is too lean will not be a fine flavor, and prepares it thus: Soak for twelve hours. Trim aawy the rusty parts from the underside and the edges. Scrub the whole ham with a stiff brush. Stick a few whole cloves into the ham and sprinkle over with pepper and light brown sugar. Make a paste of flour and hot water and cover the bottom of the ham with it, place in the baking pan skin side up and cook, allowing twentyfive minutes to the pound. Baste now and then. When done peel 3off the crust and the skin and dredge over lightly with flour. Put into the oven again until browned. If you have a savory roasting pan— one that has a close-fitting cover and oval bottom—you have the best possible means at hand for baking a ham, and you will not need to look at it after you have put it in the oven until it is done for these pans are self-basting. Wash the ham and dot over with the spice. Put in the roaster and add one cup of cider, sprinkle with sugar and put in the oven. California hams are small and sweet and just the thing to cook with cabbage If you are a real housekeeper and can have such good things and they are nice, too, when steamed. These little hams are sure to be very salty and will need to be soaked over night, at least, to freshen them. The writer thinks the best way to cook a email ham is in a paper bag, for then all the flavor and rich juices are saved. Prepare the ham. Do not forget the cloves, and if you are fond of spice, mix a little cinnamon with the Bugar you rub over it. Dredge the ham on the top side with flour, place in a cooking bag, seal, and fold over the ends. Add no water or other moisture. Bake a little less than the usual twenty-five minutes for each pound. Watch tho clock and do not cook too long. When done puncture the bag and drain the juice and fat into a Bmall howl. Set this aside until cold and you will have a cake of the finest sort of shortening, and the liquor, which is the real essence of the ham, may be thickened into gravy or used to season some vegetable dish. Serve the ham while hot and use any that remains when it is cold.

When I first began to have them I weighed 140 pounds, but they brought sae down to 110. "I went to many doctors and they gave me only temporary relief. So I suffered on, till one day, a woman doctor advised me to drink Postum. 8he said 1 looked like 1 was coffee poisoned. "So I began to drink Postum, and gained 15 pounds in the first few weeks and am still gaining, but not so fast as at first. My headaches began to leave me after I had used Postum about two weeks—long enough, I expect, to get the coffee poison out of my system. "Now that a few months have pass* ed since I began to use Postum, I con gladly say that I never know what a neuralgic headache is like any more, and it was nothing but Postum that relieved me.

Some peopie marvel tbat a flock of 60 or more of these birds were seen daring tbe coldest days of the. present weather. This seems to be a phenomna worth oonsiderimg and out of the ordinary and many people believe it to be a sign of as early sprng. All Mite is based en the theory that robing go south or migrate. The fact ot tbe matter is that the robin red breast (Maxnla Mtfrateria) doee not migrate to snob as extent as It hibernates, or spends the winter ia seclusion in the north. There are a certain number of these birds that do fly sooth ieitb the approach of the cold, bnt this number is few in comparison to tbe total number that are here tbe year round. Dr. Bubnrt Ulark, graduate of Amherst college, John Hopkins university, and at one time instructor of biology of Olivet Hnivereity is tbe •tttuoxitj. /or the statement that robins as a rnie stay north in the winter months to a large degree. With the approach of winter, the robin leaven the op>n plfees in the Jields and around buildings and betakes him? self to the thick, feusby tract* of land that are generally common where are swamp lands. Here'be burrow* hi* way into tbe ^Innermost heart of tbe bashes and &vee preteeted by the thick brash, through the winter ntootbe. Now and than he makes hte sppenjajtea, for tno purpose of feeding ia the open place* J but invariaWy retarne to hie whiter home. This aotoonts tor people seeing them during the winter months to frequently. As for the appearance of the robin indicating w*rm weather or the approach of spring tbtt theory amount* to nothing, beoante the rob* ins are with us all winter.—Ex.

CAVKRLY, Pub. i P W C K N E Y . . - - MICHIGAN AVIATION NONSENSE. Why- should any aviator at this stage talk flying across the Atlantic in 30 or any number of hours? If he feels impelled to try a S.OOQ-mlle flight in a dirigible or an aeroplane, why doea he not turn westward, where there is plenty of solid earth to land on? There may be men somewhat foolhardy enough to attempt the flight from Newfoundland to Ireland. It 1B a sure and easy way of achieving passing notoriety and incidentally of committing suicide by drowning, says the New York World. There will be time enough to talk of crossing the ocean in an aeroplane when this continent lias been traversed by air without alighting. Back of this nonsense about flying across the Atlantic is the misfortune that the business of aviation has fallen so largely into the bands of showmen. They are interest- «d chiefly in doing "stunts" for the eake of the advertising and future gate receipts. It is becoming a Question whether practical advances will be made in the science of aviation in this country except the government take it up seriously for military purposes, as has been done in France. The suggestion of Prof. George D. Baker, of Harvard, head of the Drama League, of Boston, that American audiences should indicate their disapproval of plays and players by hissing, is received by producers with - disapproval, naturally, and is not likely to win much favor with the playgoer. The qualifications of the one who hisses must be examined before we will grant him the privilege, and not oven a certificate from the Drama League that such and such persons are equipped with critical judgment and are able to reach safe and sound opinions will bo sufficient warrant for a commission 'to hiss. It is imaginable that the tired business man might find most earnest and sincere objection to a play which was giving the Drama League keen intellectual J enjoyment, says the Chicago Tribune. It might be dangerous to commission them to hiss, and if the Drama League hissed a play which the tired business man was enjoying, it probably would find itself on its head outside the main door. The hiss will not help the drama uplift. Empty seats are the best protests againsCundesirable, bad or banal, plays. If the army gets more aeroplanes it will have to call them airplanes. At least the appropriation bill reported by the house committee on military affairs calls the things airplanes, and airplanes, therefore, are the only things that can pull money away from the public treasury—unless congress alters the wording of the bill. It appears that a sensitive representative from Texas objects to the word "aeroplane," and will not be satisfied with anything less than "airplane." which he says means the same thing. In the interests of the simple life, by all means call the things airplanes. , France is soon to have the first aerial regiment ever organized. Not all the members can, for the present, take .__lhfl_alr-.ai..once, but an-approprlatlon Is to be asked for buying enough aeroplanes to bring the total up to 1,000, of four different sorts. The yearly cost of keeping this service efficient is estimated at $4,000,000; the cost in lives is not so easy to reckon. That St Petersburg is rapidly growing in population is evidenced by the census taken in December, 1810, which showed the population, including certain suburban vilages formerly not covered, to be 1,907,708. It tf pre? eminently an "office town" and also a seaport for six or eight months of the year.

This enables American shippers to send goods direct to this port without the delays of trans-shipment in foreign ports. ' * "* A Kansas professor thinks that troduced into QurioUegjaa, He Is quite right in his criticism Umt, while we RAGE IS D M OUT Indians of Alaska are Rapidly Decreasing In Numbecs. AID OF CONGRESS IS ASKED Dr. Foster's Report Shows That Disease, Especially Tuberculosis, Is Making Great Inroads Among the Natives of the Northwestern Territory. By GEORGE CLINTON. Washington.—The national bureau of education has asked congress for an appropriation of $70,000 for additional medical work among the natives of Alaska. Ever since the Indians of the western plains stopped going on the war path philanthropists have been at work among them seeking to decrease the death rate and to make the one time wirriors and their squaws and papooses observe the white man's safeguard against disease. The result has been that the Indiana within the United States proper are Increasing in numbers. The Alaska Indians, however, are In a pitiful condition notwithstanding the efforts of the bureau of education, which has charge of the work there, to aid them in every way. Alaska Is a long way off and the condition of the tribes there does not appeal to the residents of the .United States so strongly as does that of the Indians who are at the doorstep. It is said, however, that congress is likely to become alive to Its responsibilities and that the condition of the Alaska tribes will be materially bettered. Dr. M. H. Foster, past assistant surgeon In the public health and marine hospital service, has recently returned from Alaska, where he was sent to f make a survey of the health conditions of the country. His report has a good deal in it to make Americans, and members of congress especially, think on the duty of this country to !ts northwestern wards, many of whom are suffering physical disabilities because of the encroachment on their country of the "white master." Population Rapidly Dwindling. In the report of the bureau of education it is Bald that no Indians at a,ll will be left in Alaska in sixty or seventy years unless the government at once takes vigorous measures to check disease among them. Dr. Foster in discussing the decrease In the native population says: "Owing to the usual lack of vital statistics In a pioneer country such as this, the exact facts on which to base an opinion have never been available and most of the statements have been mere conjectures. At Sitka accurate records have been kept by the churches, and they show that for a period of five years and seven months the annual birth rate has been 72.3 per thousand and the annual death rate 85.4 per thousand. During this period, wtth 8-n estimated population of 400, there were 29 more deaths than births. "The returns of the United States census bureau show that in the last 10 years there has been a decrease in the total Indian population approximately equal to 14 per cent., or 1½ per cent, per year. This corresponds very closely to tho rates as figured at itka, and they may be taken as indicating fairly correctly the rates for the whole country. The death rate In the United States varies from 7 or 8 per thousand to 35 per thousand, depending upon—the locality-.- An average death rate may be placed at 22 to 23 per thousand "The very unusual mortality In Alaska, S5.4 per thousand, Is to be attributed largely to pulmonary tuberculosis, and unless it is checked in some way it will result in the extinction of the natives in 60 or 70 years. Fortunately, it is counteracted to a certain extent by an unusually large birth rate, but the birth rate will probably decrease as time goes on." Not Easy to Treat. Congress has been asked to establish a tuberculosis sanitarium in Alaska, a provision having been made for It in an appropriation bill which is now before the law makers. There is J a touch of humor, although it is a kind of grim humor, in what Dr. Foster has to say about the trouble of rendering medical assistance to Indians in their own homes. His words are intended to show the necessity for congressional action on behalf of a hospital to which natives who are seriously ill can be transferred for treatment In his report Dr. Foster says: "Under present conditions the Indians copses- on, child-rearing should be h>( rcannot be effectively treated in their ^..__j ,_. ;•-.„ „_-,i — o w n fconvs except for a few minor complaints.

He left some strychnine tablets with explicit directions thnt one was to be taken every two hours. The brother of the sick man despite these directions, reasoning that if one was good, more were bet-' ter, gave the entire supply at one tlmW and the man died in a few hours." It Is hoped that before Jong an additions) corps of doctors and nurses can be sent to Alaska who will act as medical missionaries. Aaron Burr's Cousins. A paragraph in a Washington paper says that Senator Page of Vermont "has a grandson who on his mother's side is a cousin of Aaron Burr." if Speaker Champ Clark were asked about this matter be probably would say that to be a cousin of Aaron Burr may carry a certain amount of distinction because of the blood relationship, but that Aaron Burr's cousins are like the blossoms of the apple tree in May in a record breaking fruit year. Speaker Clark has been a great student of Aaron Burr's life. In a way, and perhaps heartily, Mr. Clark is something of a champion of Aaron Burr, a sincere champion because the speaker, it is said, thinks that Burr was accused of a good many things of which he was not guilty and that he was a man too much abused for faults which he had not committed. There are men who think that if Aaron Burr had not killed Alexander Hamilton many of the animosities against him would not be in existence today. There are other men who say that the dislike of Hamilton's ideas of government, held hereditarily by politicians of today, are responsible in a measure for the championship of Burr by men who otherwise would not have loved his memory so much if they did not hate the memory of Hamilton's political and governmental views more. Many Descendants of Edwards. As for the matter of Aaron Burr's many cousins, let it be said that Burr was a grandson of Jonathan Edwards, the great theologian, and one of the first presidents of Princeton college. Jonathan Edwards had ten Sisters, all of whom married and had large families. The descendants of Jonathan Edwards direct and collateral, today are numbered by the thousands and everyone of these descendants, of course, is a cousin of Aaron Burr who was Jonathan Edward's grandson. Some one not long ago wrote a story about the Edwards descendants direct and collateral. Six of these descendants, either grandchildren or grand nephews, were at one time presidents of colleges. It is possible that more men of the Edwards blood bold prominent positions in the world today than men of the blood of any other one American family. The name is not always Edwards, of course, for in fact the Edwards of the female line outnumber those of the male line perhaps twenty to one, but the descendants of Jonathan Edwards' sisters and of his daughters are just as much of the Edwards blood as are the people who bear the name. Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt is a direct descendant of Jonathan Edwards and so it Is said is former President Eliot of Harvard. The Dwights have the Edwards blood in them and a comparatively recent president of Yale university who held the office for many years was a Dwlght and an Edwards. He, however, Is not included in the six college presidents who at one time held office and were of the Edwards kin The most recent Yale Dwight was of course of a younger generation. Army Worried About Horses. Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, chief of stafi, United States army, who as a surgeon was stationed with a cavalry regiment in the southover the growing difficulty of securing good horses for the service. General Wood and some other officers with him say that the laws against betting on horse races in many of the states are responsible in a way for the growing scarcity of good horses for the service. It must not be understood that General Wood either personally or In his capacity as the ranking officer of the army- upholds betting. He stm*-} ply states what he thinks is a fact and deplores the effect if not the cause. When American cavalry officers recently went to England to engage in a contest of horsemanship, including high jumping, with the officers of cavalry regiments of European countries, they lost most of the events because it is said their horses were not the equals of those used by the foreign officers. August Belmont, who Is chairman of the American Jockey club, at & dinner in New York a night or two ago, pointed to the serious menace which threatened the cavalry and flejd , artillery branches of the United States army "in the depletion of thoroughbred horses by reason of a cessation tt racing." Mr. Belmont has suggested the formation of a nation-wide association to be known as the National Cavalry and Artillery Remount association, to be created from all ranks of sports and agricultural life with the center of the organization at Washington, to keep a register pt mares Inspected and found suitable for breeding remounts and artillery horses. Gen. Leonard Wood and Col. Theodore Roosevelt have expressed a willingness to become vice-presidents of the association. It is expected that inducements will be held out to horse breeders in all parts of the country to make a specialty of animals suitable for the army service. American Record Rides. There has been a general belief through the years that the foreign) cavalry horses were better than those of America, and yet there are records in the United States service of long, hard rides, the horses-coming through" in good condition, which never have been equaled by men and horses of the foreign service,! The army has records of some of these rides and it fears today that the deterioration of the American horse may prevent their repetition if tho service should demand strenuous efforts on the part of the cavalry horses of the present and of the near future. U. S. TROOPS ARE RUSHED TO PEKIN LOSS IN CAPITAL ALONE 13 NOW PUT AT $25,000,000—CHAOS PREVAILS. ANCIENT T O W N L I T T E R E D W I T H HEADLESS BODIES. Hundreds of Squares of Houses Have Been Burned—Gates of Forbidden City Were Also Burned. A strons detachment of United States troops has been ordered to proceed to Pekln from Tien Tsin immediately, according to a dispatch received from that city. Chaos prevails throughout the ancient city of Pekin, and is spreading all over northern China, as a result of renewed rioting, resulting in almost complete anarchy. The military mutiny, incendiary fires and the pillaging of soldiers, coolies and outlaw bands, are the leading features of the terrifying situation. The damage that was done brought the estimate of aggregate loss in this city alone up to $25,000,000. Hundreds of squares of houses have been burned in the city, and the historic market house, one of the ancient landmarks, is in ruins. The gates to the Forbidden City, where the imperial palace is situated, were also burned. President Yuan Shi Kai has troops patrolling the principal streets and cannons have been planted to protect his official residence. Many missionaries hav5 been slaughtered by the mutineers in Pao Ting Fu, according to a report received in Pekin. It is thought probable, however, in well informed circles, that only one or two have been killed. It is believed they'are Roman Catholics. The foreign ministers, after a /:onfeience, have decided to bring into Pekin all the available foreign troops (10,04)0 J stationed in adjacent ports in China. 100 DEAD IN MUTINY. Revolting Troops Leave Pekin Burning Loaded With Loot. Martial law was declared in Pekin following: the departure of the mutineers in President Yuan Shi Kai's aimy, who marched southward shortly laden with loot. Nearly a dozen fires were raging in the northern part of the city and soldiers .were trying to g;et the blaze under control. It is feared that the. entire northern district will be burned out, Dynamite was used without avail,, American and others foreigners are still refugees in their various legations. The American legation is crowded a,nd orders have been issued tor all foreigners, to remain secluded until quiet is restored. President Yuan Shi Kai was military dictator of the situation and expressed hope of establishing' tranquility, He said that troops would be .sent to g;ive battle to the muttners. NPTA QUESTION FOR COURTS Americans Asked to Quit Mexico. President Taft and cabinet are preparing a proclamation urging all Americans to stay out of Mexico during the present revolt. The real significance of the proclamation is the offi-, cial recognition of the fact that the' insurrectionary movement in Mexico has attained to such proportions as to cause it to be regarded as fairly balancing power and influence with the Madero government. For that reason its issue is likely to be regarded with strong disfavor in the City of Mexico. NTo sucli proclamation was issued during the Madero revolution. LATE WIRE BULLETINS.

When my hands first started to get. sore, there were small blisters like water blisters which formed. They Itched dreadfully, it just seemed as though I could tear the skin all off. I would scratch them and the skin would peel oft, and the flesh would be all red and crack open and bleed. It worried me very much, as I had never- _. . had anything the matter with my skin. I was so afraid I would have to give up my employment. "My doctor said he didn't think it would amount to anything. But It kept getting vwrse.

"It's the Indian," he said grimly, "Sanchez must 'a' mistook him fer one of us, and shot the poor devil." And Sanchez himself la out yonder • oil that caDd-»U,".-aBd Keith pointed; ihen lifted hiB voice to make it carry across the stream. "Come on over, •aqctor. you and Neb. We've got the Bring that body out there with you." |e "Bar X" man waded out to and the three together laid the I4lp{d Mexican outlaw on the bank, besrtle the Indian he had shot down in his effort to escape. Keith stood for a moment bending low to -look curiously intb the dead face—wrinkled, scarred, still featuring cruelty, the thin lips drawn back ffia snarl. What scenes of horror those eyes had gazed upon during fifty years of crime; what suffering of men, women, children; what deeds of rapine; what examples of merciless hate. Juan Sanchez!—the very sound of the name made the blood run cold. "Dead or alive J" Weli» they had him at l a s t - dead; and the plainsman shuddered, as he turned away. Taking Fairbain with him and hastily reviewing late occurrences to him, Keith- crossed over to the corral, realizing that their work—his work—was not wholly done until Hawley had been located. With this quest tn mind he strode straight to the black-bearded giant who had guarded Hope from Sheridan. MWhat ia» your name?" he asked sharply. The man looked up scowling. "Hatchett/* he answered gruffly. "WeU. Hatchett, 1 am going to ask or two, and advise you Just about as straight as you I am in no mood to-night rifshaeas. Where 4a 'Black ? ley?** "How in Jell should 1 know?" •You do know, just the tame.

"Net Wett now, Hatchett, listen to rae." and Keith's voice had in tt the cflck. of a steel trap. "You'll either iwer. and answer straight, or well you to that cottonwood In about .minutes. If yon want a chance miserable lile you answer have our way of treating your in thte country. Sit up, you where did Hawley go artttVrned4 tf.i*,. " fresh horsaaT* lines. As he ended he crushed the paper between hh/flngers, and walked away to the end of the corral. He wanted to be alone, to think, to decide definitely upon what he ought to do. Hawley, according to the schedule just read, must have left.Lamed alone early the day before; this night he would be camped at the water-hole; with daybreak he expected to resume his lonely journey across the desert to the Salt Fork. For years Keith had lived a primitive life, and in some ways his thought had grown primitive. His code of honor was that of the border, tinged by that of the South before the war. The antagonism existing between him and this gambler was personal, private, deadly—not an affair for any others—outsiders—to meddle with. He could wait here, and permit Hawley to be made captive; could watch him ride unsuspectingly into the power of these armed men, and then turn him over to the law to be dealt with. The very thought nauseated him. That would be a coward's act, leaving a stain never to be eradicated. No, he must meet this as His tone was full of good humor, and hid line smiling, yet somehow she felt her heart sink, an inexplicable r^ar finding expression in;ber eye*, "Uutr-but why do you: ipeed to !go7 Couldn't some a(f |the-otaers?" "There is a reason which 1 will explain later,", he said, more gravely. "Surely you can truBt me, Hope, and feel that I am only doing what it seems absolutely necessary tor me to do?" He bent down and kissed her "It will be only for a few hours, and no cause for worry. Good-bye now, until we meet to-night at the waterbole " The east was gray with coming daylight as he rode splashing across the stream and up the opposite bank. She watched him, rubbing the blinding mist from her eyes, until horse and man became a mere dark speck, finally fading away completely into the dull plain of the desert. CHAPTER X X X V I . The Duel in the Desert, Keith rode straight forward into the sandy desolation, spurring his horse into a swift trot After one glance backward as they clambered up the tude? steep bank, a glance which revealed Hope's slender form in the cabin door, his eyes never turned again that way. He had a man's stern work to do out yonder, and his purpose could not be swerved, his firmness of hand and keenness of eye affected, by any thought of her. His lips compressed, his fingers gripping the rein, he drove all regretful memory from bis mind, until every nerve within him throbbed in unison with his present purpose. He was right; he knew be was right, It was not hate, not even revenge, which had set him forth, leaving iov-9 behind, but honor—the honor of the South, and of the frontier, of his ancestry and his training—honor that But there was nothing, absolutely nothing—jus:, that seemingly endless stretch of sand, circled by the blazing sky. the wind sweeping its suriace soundless and hot, as though from the pita of hell; no stir, no motion, no movement of auything animate o- inanimate to break the awful monotony. Death! it was death everywhere! t e - aching eyes rested on nothing but what was typical of death. Even the heat waves seemed fantastic, grotesque, assuming spectral forms With every step of advance the brooding silence seemed more profound, more deathlike. He got to marking the sand ridges, the slight variations giving play to the brain. Way off to the left was the mirage of a lake, apparently so real that he had to battle with himself to keep from turning aside. He dropped forward in the saddle, his head hanging low, so blinded by the Incessant sun glare he could no longer bear the glitter of that horrible ocean of sand. It was noon now—noon, and he had been riding steadily seven hours. The thought brought his blurred eyes again to the horizon. Where could he be, the man he sought in the heart of this soil- Surely he should be here by now. If he had left the water-bole at dawn. Could he have gone the longer route, south to the Fork? The possibility of Buch a thing seared through him like a hot iron, driving the dullness from his brain, the lethargy from his limbs. God! no! Fate could never play 8uch__a scurvy trick as that! The man must have been delayed; had failed to leave camp early—somewhere ahead, yonder where the blue haze marked the union of sand and sky, he was surely coming, riding half dead, and drooping in the saddle. Again Keith rose in his stirrups, rubbing the mist out of his eyes that he might see clearer, and stared ahead. What was that away out yonder? a shadow? a spot dancing before his tortured vision? or a moving. living something which he actually saw? Ho could not tell, he could not be sure, yet he straightened up expectantly, shading his eyes, and never 4osing sight of the object It moved. grew larger, darker, more real—yet how it crawled, crawled, crawled toward him. It seemed as If the vague, shapeless thing would never take form, never stand out revealed against the sky so he could determine the truth. He had forgotten all else—the silent desert, the blazing sun, the burning wind—all his soul concentrated on that speck yonder. Suddenly it disappeared—a swale in the sand probably—and, when it rose into view again, he uttered-a cry of Joy—It was a horse and rider! Little oy little they drew nearer one another, two black Bpecks In that vast ocean of sand, the only moving. living things under the brazen circle of the sky. Keith was ready now, his eyes bright, the cocked revolver gripped hard in his hand. The space between them narrowed, and Hawley saw him, caught a.glimpse of the face under the broad hat brim, the burning eyes surveying him. Wtthan oath be stopped hl3 horse, dragging at his gun, surprised, dazed, yet Instantly understanding Keith also halted, and across the intervening desert tho eyes of the two men met In grim defiance. (TO BB CONTINUED.) The Eyes of the Two Met In Defiance. Vyi became a man, and now. now before Hope so much as dreamed of bis pur . pose—aye, and before be spoke another word of love to Hope He wheeled about fully decided on hi* course, his duty, and met Fairbain face to face. "Jack," the latter said earnestly, "1 read the note over your shoulder, and of course 1 know what you mean to do. A Southern gentleman could not choose otherwise. But I've come here to beg you to let me have the chance." "You?" surprised and curious. "What greater claim on that fellow's life have you than I?" The pudgy Mnds of the doctor grasped the plainsman's shoulders "It's for Christie," he explained brokenly "She was the one he tried to run away with. You—you know how I feel." *'8ure, 1 know," shaking the other off, yet not roughly. "But it happened to be Miss Walte he took, and so this ts my Job. Fairbain. Besides, I've got another score to settle with him." He wasted little time upon preparations— a few brief words of tostructioa* to Brtstoe; a request to the doe* tor not to leave Hope alone; the extracting of a promise from the two "Bar X" men to return to Larteed with the prisoners. Then he roped the best horse in the corral, saddled and bridled him, and went Into the cabin She had a light burning, and met him at the door. "1 thought you would never come* but they told me you were unhurt. y "Not a scratch, little girl; we have i t left*"***? th* dirty aWaJtypapaF the man reluctantly extracted from ^^Sne^beif-aJfd MrWl « matehee w1s% Iferan hit eyee hastily over the jL'i.Y'-t - •*•• ' •* ' / ^idart bring thett t>«you; '» »pesy and Leavenworth/*. • « 0 4 do you h n o w 7 t - , ' r . r ^ f t ^ •, "He writ me a note t^hda.^suder been a lucky bunch.

And he rode smiling, gladly, as to a tryst, now that he was at last alone, tree in the desert The -flours passed, the sun rising higher in the blazing blue of the sky; the horse, wearied by the constant pull of the sand, had long since slowed. down to a walk; the last dim blur of the cottonwoods along the Fork had disappeared; and the rider swayed in the saddle, the dead ilfelessness of sky and desert dulling his brain. Yet he had not forgotten his errand—rousing constantly from lethargy to sweep his shaded eyea about the rounded horizon, keenly marking the slightest shadow across the sands, taking ad* vantage of every drift to give him wider viewpoint, rising in bis stirrups to scan the leagues of desolation ahead. Twice be drew his revolver from out Ita sheath, tested It, and slipped in a fresh cartridge, return* lng the weapon more lightly to us place, the flap of the bolster turned back and held open by bis leg.

The weariness of the long night preaeeo upon his eye-bails; he felt the strata of the past hours, the lack of food, the need of rest His head nodded, and he brought himself to life again with a jerk and a muttered word, star lng out into the dim. formless distance Lord, tf there was only soma* thing moving; something he cwuid Heavy Luggage.

Judge's Severe Comment Sir Matthew BegbJe, chief justice of British Columbia, once had before! aim a man eaarced with aavtaf kitted another man with a sand-bag. The evidence was conclusive, and the judge charged the jury accordingly, bnt a verdict of "Not Guilty" waa promptly brought in. The judge was astonished. "Gentlemen of the jury," he said, "this is your verdict, not mine. On your conscience the die* grace will rest. Many repetitions of such conduct as yours will make trial by jury a horrible farce, and the city of Victoria a nest of crime. Go! I have nothing more to say to you." And then, turning to the prisoner: "You are discharged. Go and sandbag some of those jurymen; they daserve It" Brother Dickey Explains. "I got no sarmont ter preach today,'' said Brother Dickey. 'The last time I put my presence, in die yer yer pulpit I preached a sarmont what was so powerful hit sent six sisters off in a trance, an' dey ain't come to not yit, causln' de law ter.git after me, kaae dey ain't conscious enough ter rise up an' make a llvln' far dey husbands.

(BT W. 8. THORNBER, Wasblnstoa.) In the removal of large branches from old or bearing trees always make the cut parallel with the branch or main stem from which the one is removed. This frequently means a larger wound than It would nuke if the cut is made at right angles to the lhnb that la to be removed, hut such wounds will heal Quicker and are lees Injurious to the tree than the much Cutting Off Large Branches. 1.

Do not hesitate to remove large useless or superfluous limbs from trees, but always make smooth, clean cuts with a saw, and if necessary to prevent splitting the stem or peeling the bark, make two cuts—the first from six to twelve Inches out from where the limb Is to be finally cut off. Nothing can be applied to the wound to hasten the healing. PROPER GRADING OF APPLES One Excellent Method Is to Construct Wooden Trough With Different Sized Holes. An excellent method of grading apples Is described by Ray Malcolm In the Farm and Fireside as follows: Make, a trough, mounted o* legs, with a receiving box as shown In Grade the Apples. drawing. Cut two holes, one larger than the other, in trough. These holes grade the apples by letting small ones drop through first hole, second or medium ones through second hole, while large ones roll out at end of trough. The trough must be mounted' high enough so as not to tire the operator, for one person will have to keep the large and medium-sized ap> plea out of the email halo and the large out of the medium hole. This can be accomplished best by reaching hand under trough and knocking apples up out of the holes. Food Value of Fruit Here are a few facts worth considering. Baked apples are more nutritious than baked potatoes, and will produce more work. Dates, prunes, figs, apricots and raisins are dried fruits always available. Instead of looking upon them as merely supplemental to food—like confectionery— we should remember that they are really among the most healthful, pal* atable and concentrated of vegetable foods. Among fresh fruits, nansnas, apples, figs, grapes* blackberries, strawberries and oranges have decided Sasd value and may be used: as eosBessioal sources of nourishment ... EGGS. POULTRY AND VEAL ..

WILLIAMS TREATING HORSE FOR WORMS Three Different Remedies Given, Any One of Which Will Bo Found to Be Quito effective. This Is one of the best worm destroyers for unthrifty colts and horses that we have ever tried: Mix together one pound each of sugar and salt; in this mix one-half pound of fine smoking tobacco, six ounces of powdered sulphate of iron. As a dose for a mature horse give a heaping tableapoonful In a wheat bran mash every morning for two weeks. Colts should be given la smaller proportion to size and age. A veterinary supply house advises the following remedy for worms In horses: Give a teaspoonful of powdered copper sulphate every morning in feed for three or four days, them give two ounces of turpentine In a pint of raw linseed oil. Feed soft feed and keep the infected animal in the stable while under this treatment. A veterinary physician, signing no name, suggests this treatment in an exchange: Clear the bowels by allowing the horse to fast over night and give in the morning two ounces of turpentine In a pint of raw linseed oil or gruel, followed 4* the course of an ] hour with a bran mash; repeat this for two or three mornings. Santosin in half or one ounce doses, made into powders, with linseed meal, may bo given to valuable horses for two or three mornings In succession, followed by a cathartic.

After picturing to him the countless privation's and dangers they were certain would be incident to traveling through thejgreat wilderness, which constitutes the larger part of the Republics that border the Caribbean, they declared it would be {tempting; Providence to venture among the rutn- Hesa enrages who inhabit the forests and llanos [watered by the Orinoco and Its affluents. So jgreatt however, was his desire to visit this llttleknownfMtrt of the world that he determined, in npiie ot the dlfflcutttes and dangers predicted, to make at least the attempt to accomplish his longcheftshed purpose. &e.has always been glad that he paid no heed to the horrible forebodings that were volunteered toy weU-meaning but ill-advised people. Had he ''done «04 lie would have deprived himself of one of jtha most delightful experiences ot his life. For, •outside of certain discomforts inseparably connected with roughing It In the wild, the entire trip jwa* on* of agreeable surprises and unalloyed •pleasure. And, In lieu of bloodthirsty savages aeehdag to transfix him with poisoned arrows, He found, the Indians all along his route to be not •only harmless, but hospitable and obliging, indeeA eep)e' of the most pleasant recollections he *ia«of tis wahdertags'In the wilds of Venesuela *i»4 Colombia is the kindly treatment he invariably! eaeeived at the hands of the children of the forest. j ¥These, observations, says a writer In the Pan- ^Vmerican Bulletin, have been suggested by a work which has recently been published In Berlin on the Indians inhabiting the region between ithe.flio Negro and the Yapura. It is by Dr. Tbeovdor, ICoch-Grunberg, a distinguished German traveler and ethnologist, and is entitled "Zwel Jahre luntec den Indlanern" (Two YearB Among the ln- Mlsjns). It has appealed to us in a special maniner, not only on account ot the mine of information It contains regarding the manners and customs of the various tribes of Indiana which the author visited during his two years' peregrination^ in this Comparatively unknown part ot the world; not only on account of its. numerous and valuable illustrations reproduced from photographs which constitutes so valuable an aid to the right understanding, of, the narrative, but also, and chiefly, because the doctor's experiences among the red"mm of'the regions visited were almost iaentical with bur own In othor parts of the continent. H it was in August, 1903, that Dr. ivoch-ttrunberg reached the little town of Sao Pelippe on the Upper Rio Negro. Using this place as a base, he iproceeded without delay to explore Its western alifluents, the lcana, the Uapes, the Curlcuriary, and their chiel tributaries, and to study the manners, customs and languages of the divers Indian tribes that live on or near their banks. After spending nearly two years among these people, some of whom never saw a white man before, he returned to Manaos, near the mouth of the Rio Negro, by way of the Yapura and the Amazon. He was well equipped for his work, which for him was ever a labor of love. He had previously accompanied Dr. Hermann Meyer during his ex- Bloi-ation of the Xlngu in southern Brazil, and had 'then learned*to admire the many notable qualities of the unspoiled denteens of the Jungle. Outside of a young Brazilian, of German descent, his sole companions during his long wanderings among many tribes—some of whom, he had been iwarned, were antropotagos (cannibals)—were Indians whom ha employed as norters and boatmen. : And.tMlMnH* inc^ hMtantet Whf t ar* known as IndtoThravoB <wlid~Ihdian*l who had little or no contsAfe wHh d»Ul#*tton.';t vkJut so ^omp^baly did h e S m fhe fl*C*5tlni^Bflhen^ tod af. feetioiof these simple, fondly peopfevthat' they at OIK£ fieafcrfhimiw one aithelf**™ and made jhlm f a ^ W h d l i f i l ^ i * ^ * * W W ^ " " i . i A n d ^ 8 ^ « 6 b ^ i a ^ , a * d 4 W ^ W l ^ ^dealints^wJth them that Ws reputation preceded, ffci«n from ,>tribe to tribe.

They are carefully swept every day and are, as the author expresses it, pelnllch sauber (painfully clean). The malokas are generally built on elevated ground, so that they may always be above inundations during the rainy season and near a stream of pure water. In front of them' is a clear, open space, and near by are clumps of plantain and banana plants and pupuna palms, while In the immediate neighborhood are plantations of mandioca and fields of maize. These afford them all the food they need. But besides these sources of food supply, they can usually find an abundance of fish in the rivers and a choice variety of game in the forest. The mother looks after the mandioca, which Is the Indian's staff of life in the equatorial regions of America, while the father procures the game and the fish. "Life in one of these large commercial lodges," we are Informed, "Is, on ordinary days, of idyllic regularity." kang before daybreak Its Inmates are awake andi from hammock to hammock, carry r . on a^i animated conversation in a loud voice. ./ Tfttav was often to my disgust, especially when 1 had worked to a late hour the night before, for, . with all their chatter, further sleep was impossl- -, We. At early dawn, about five o'clock, all take a bath in the adjoining river. Soon thereafter the '", women call to the first breakfast. Bach one puts , in a large earthenware vessel the remnants, warmed over, of the preceding day's meal. This consists of boiled fish, strongly seasoned with pepper, or game, together with a shallow basket hf> mandtocd cakes, placed in the middle of the •' heusi. The men now leave their hammocks, in - .wMoh tbey ensconced themselves after their hath, and aquat in a circle around the appetising repast prepared for them. After eating, each one washes his mouth and hands in preparation for the .dee- : aert. Large calabashes, filled, with refreshing and v jaourjahing mandioca broth, are then passed * acound. The women, so custom requires, eat after the men. Then all betake themselves to their daily occupation—the men to hunting and fishing, the women to their plantations, and peace- |uV stillness reigns throughout the entire village. tjnty a few old* women remain behind, and awing;; themselves Idly In their hammocks.

The cblef or head of this patriarchal community lives, with his family, in an apartment at one end of the.maloka. Everything is under his direction, and nothing of importance is undertaken without his consent and advice. Notwithstanding the large number of people living under the same roof, there is the greatest peace and harmony. "I have lived for months at a time," declares our author, "in one of theoe malokas and never have I, under normal conditions, witnessed any disputes or quarrels." It is, however, the moral conditions of the occupants of these communal lodges that impressed him most deeply. "These naked Indians," he asserts, "are as decorous as it Is possible for men to be. Their morality is on a high plane, although several families live together in the same room. "The woman plays an important role as the wife and counselor of her husband, but her influence is greatly augmented when she becomes a mother. She then enters upon her proper life work, for the care and bringing up the children are committed entirely to her unfailing love and devotion. i "From the moment of birth until it is able to walk one rarely sees the child without the mother. The two are practically inseparable. The 'baby' here "la ever tholobject of the same tender"affecF" tion as with us, and the older children, too, are never without their mother's special solicitude. I have seen a mother playing with and entertaining them for hours at a time. "The Indian woman is far from being the stupid beast of burden pictured for us by superficial observers. While the hu&band devotes his attention te the commonweal, the wife spends her time within the limits of the family circle. But along with the chief duties of the family she also assumes the chief rights. Her life is indeed one of toil and fatigue, but she thereby expands her faculties and brings her true nature to its full development. What, however, excited the author's greatest astonishment was their extraordinary honesty. The Ehrllchkeit, he teUs vs, "war verfiuffend." "I could have left all my trunks remain open and they would have taken nothing. Even pieces of printed paper which I had thrown away and bits of stearin that had dropped from my candle they always carefully placed on my camp stool. Speaking generally, the author does hot hesitate to declare, "The property of another is strictly respected. Never will an Indian sell the smallest thing, while in his keeping, which belongs to another without the owner's knowledge and consent, ami never will he accept payment «for another." Regarding the cannibals, against whom he had been warned when he was in Manaos, he assures us that "they were all as harmless and goodnatured as all*the other wild Indians with whom he came in contact." Having had such delightful experience* among these simple, kind hearted people, we can well understand that when the day of parting came the author found it difficult to tear himself away from those at whose hands he had for nearly two yeare received such unvarying kindness., and who had contributed so materially to the aucceaa of, his expedition. We are well aware that the account Vr. Koch* Grunberg gives of the copper-colored deniseaa of the South American forests is wholly different from that of most writers. But he la not alone In his favorable estimate of than. Those who know them beat, who have apeht the longest time among them and have had an opportunity of stttdytog them at close range, will find our authors descriptions and judgments correct as waff at,t*innetheUc.

An account is given of the results of the earlier experiments in selecting,. the highest producers as breedera without regard to any other, qualities ; than their trap neat, records. It ia shown that this plan of breeding failed to obtain any distinct improvement in flock production.' The experiments of the station to find out whether continued artificial incubation and brooding has a harmful effect on egg production are described. Ttfce *fect of inbreeding on egg production '4» discussed on the basis of extensive experimental records. This Is followed by a clear and simple explanation of a new plan of breeding which has been tried during the past five years, and which Is based upon the conception that high egg productiveness is inherited in certain "blood lines" and not in others, and that by a proper system of pedigree selection it is possible to isolate the high producing lines. The last section of the bulletin is devoted to an exposition of the gratifying eueeess wbieb has attended the application of this new plan of breeding to the station flock. Strains which have high egg productiveness fixed as a definite character have now been obtained and are being propagated at the station. FOR FEEDING TURKEYS ONLY Small V-Shaped Trough Elevated to Height to Allow Big Birds to Pick From Is Useful. b Often on a farm where turkeys are raised right along with the chickens and other poultry, it is desirable to feed them heavier than the other poultry, yet suitable means of doing so are not available without a fenced yard to separate- them, writes P. C. Gross -Of Ohio in the Prairie Farmer. In such --cases the following contrivance serves adifrirabiy: A small V-shajSMk trough, of immaterial length, is elevated by means of supports to a height that wltt allow the turkeys to stand on the floor and pick from it, yet be too high to permit the chickens and small fowls doing likewise. Three or four inches above the top of the trough a board, as wide as the trough, is attached fiatwise. This prevents the chickens from flying up and standing on the edge of the trough. The sides of the trough Trough for Turkeys. prevent the turkeys from reaching tho corn or other fed in the bottom of the trough. With such a trough the turkeys may be fattened right among the other poultry, and no feed wasted on the other fowls. Of course, the chickens will climb on top of the flat board, but from It they can not reach the trough.

Futl, the baker wlH get store leaves oregrvea t a t oat of a barrel of flour than lb* housewife wilL Further, more, hit greatest aim it to find means of increasing this number. Bight to-day with all things else equal, if bakers made all the bread oooauatd, including biscuit, the flour consumption in this country would be considerably lets than it is. Next, baker's bread costs more than home made bread! which necessarily hat its influence on the amount ated, and, if bakert bread were used exclusively, this fact would materially reduce consumption of that article of food. Also with orgsnited bakers dictating the price of flour as well ts of breed, a smaller average price can be expected for floor, and a higher price for bread that will further/lessen consumption and consequently output. However, what it probably more important than any of these is the fact that bakers breat1 is not as good as home made. It is not as palatable. It does not give the consumer the feeling tbst he is taking more good, muscle making, red blood into bis system as does toothsome home made bread. When bread ceases to tickle the palate, it will be eaten as a matter of duty instead of as an act of enjoyment—and duty is always performed homeopatblcaliy. The average baker's bread tastes like soluble tissue paper. I have bought bakers bread from all the bakeries of Louisville and IndianapoIts,and not one of them sells what I would term GOOD bread, bread that one is sorry to quit eating for other food to get a balanced ration. I have dined in cafes and hotels from New York to Kant as City, and not one oat of three served bread that one could really enjoy. In Louisville only two restaurants serve bread that is a pleasure to eat, and these two have their own bakeries, so probably do not try to gat qcanity alone. I have bread in my home, made by my wife that looks good outside and in, is toothsome and savory and, in the eat" lag tempts one to make a meal of it with sweet butter and a glass of milk. My wife is an amstenr cook, with only one years experience. Her equipment for making bread is a mixer, a gas range and an ordinary kitchen equipment, plus common aent* and a tendency to know the "why" of things, tihe learned to make bread from a cook book without any outside assistance whatever, and she has never made a failure of it. Any housewife can do the same. Such bread in every home because of its delicionsnew, will increase the consumption of flour. Some say we have sour bread. There is no excuse for this, and the reason of it i« thatmsny of the women still follow the old fashiomed all-night-and-half-a-day method of making bread* There it only one safe, sure way to make bread in a home and that is the five hour method. For the benefit of those who do oot poteess a good recipe for bread I will give the one used in oar heme. Bemamber, we use toft winter wheat flour exclusively.

YAK 8MITB& '*/ Few people realize the importahofof handling apples with care while picking, packing and marketing. Apples are braised very-easily, and' espedatty those- varieties-having a ten der flesh or skin. Braises mean not only an unattractive appearance, but a real waste or^'fruit by having to cut out the bruised tissue. Probably the greatest damage from braises, however, results Jfrom the fact that the bruises furnifch an entrance for fungus or rot spores. These spores, or "fungus seeds," are as .fine as dust and float in the air. If they happen to lodge on a bruised or broken spot on the apple,, they take root and grow and spread through the apple, causing it to rot. Wrap- Ping or covering the apple may not always protect it, as the spores may have lodged on the apple before it was picked. However, if the skin and flesh of the apple can be kept intact and not bruised or brpkcn, there is not much danger of the fungus or rot finding its way into the apple. 1 To prevent bruising, apples should not be dropped or thrown into a bucket, box, or barrel, and in pouring from one vessel to another care should be taken that the apples are as close as possible to the bottom of the vessel in which you are placing them before the pouring begins.

He lingered over throwing It away, because for some reason of late Jeanette, had grown to intere^ him a good deal. But Grampell hates to break a habit: There were about six lines on the front page and "he tossed the missive away cheerfully. <Xt was eight o'clock when Grampell In. full regalia drew up at Jeanette's house and mounted the steps. The maid delivered her message as soon as she opened the door. "Miss Tripps,"^he recited, "said when you came you were to go to Mrs. Smith's if you, please/' MOh," said Grampell blankly. Then he decided that s h e must be dining oat. The only Smiths who gave dinnerr were^the-^lgernxra^a they lived 20 blocks away; Three policemen strained their voices shouting after Grampell'* taxi as he shot through the streets. He was host at the opera party and would be late as it was. Dashing up the steps of the Algernon Smiths, on whom he had not a calling acquaintance, Grampell was ushered in. From the dining room came the click and hum of a large dinner party. Presently Smith appeared. He was polite, but decidedly curious. Most evidently he could not recall having invited Grampell to dine. > Also Miss Trlpps was not there. ,._,, It Was very awkward. , Grampell had the consciousness that Smith would tell the servants immediately 1 on his departure to watch,the upstairs windows and the silver safe.

Go to your blacksmith with a ten , or twelve inch flat file and have five or six inches of the small end made into the shape of a sharp-pointed knife blade with one side of the blade flat and the other half round. Both edges of the blade must be sharp. Bend this blade to a crescent shape, with' the flat side on the inside of the bend. Put a good handle on and you have an instrument with which you can sit down to a tree and scrape all sides of it without moving. The diameter of this bend should be at least three inches.

As laying hens will always prefer a secluded place for a nest, this arrangement will be found excellent. The lid, when closed, prevents water from reaching the nests, and the eggs are taken out by simply raising the lid and reaching them with the hand. The bens can be shut out at any time by closing the opening to passageway at A, and more room is thus gained in the poultry house. The design was originated by J. C. Baker of Illinois. ADVANTAGES OF DRY FEEDING Idea Was Agitated Twenty-Five Years Ago, but Not Favorably Received— Now Being Revived. Of late years dry feeding is becoming quite popular, although It is not'a new idea lirthe poultry ranks. Fully 25 years ago the matter was agitated and adopted by some poultrymen, but as a general thing It was not favorably received. The arguments used today in favor of the dry mash and whole grain diet are, first, after becoming used to it fowls will prefer the ground grain dry to that which Is either cooked or steamed; second, it,is a labor-saving method; third, It Veeps fowls in a more healthful condition, and fourth, better fertility to the «ggs. At first the fowls will not take very kindly to the dry feed.* As meat scrap is mixed with.it, they will pick out all such, then. probably the cornmeal, or some may prefer the bran, but all of it is seldom consumed until the fowls become accustomedtott. Gradually they wlri ' e^^b'rt'^fcd more of it, f&ally - cleaning i^fcie. trough. ' - ' " " - • - - • > " ^ ; 2 ^ . , Another benefit Is tkatirfter eeitffp. a few mouthful* r they wfHi repaid>tv the drinking vessel and secure s^yejrtfl swallows of water, then back .again entire meal. It is asserted that me> water is consumed by dry-fed ft "* and as water enters so largely in the. composition of the egg, increased egg production should be the result. The method is a great labor-savef. It is possible to both feed and water the^stock In the same tlme« it' takes' to prepare the wet mash and feed it.

Kecently there has been much discussion In educational circles of the need "of men teachers In the higher grades, and aome effort has been made to attract them to the-work, without any appreciable results. There mutt be something about the calling of the teacher—eltier Its pecuniary reward! or its rang© of opportunities—that Is inadequate to attract and hold men who might take up this calling as a life work. The average man teacher uses hie position as a makeshift, a stepping-stone and means of livelihood while he studies for the law, the medicine or some other profession* says the SL Paul Pioneer Press. Usually the man teacher leaves at th* earliest opportunity for more flattering and lucrative fields of endeavor. It would seem that teaching would be the most enjoyable work for the student of books and of human nature, but the fact remains that men as a rule do not so regard It It must be admitted that the profession of teaching does not bold the financial attractions of men that axe offered In other professions. The years of preparation required, the constant study necessary, the Investment in books and other ex* penses make a severe drain on the teacher's Income, which is small at best If it be true that there Is a real demand for more men teachers, the chances are that the demand will be supplied when the compensation is made commensurate with the services rendered. The statistics of the fire department of New York show that at least 25 per cent of the fires in that city are caused by the careless use of matches and of lighted cigars and cigarettes. Is It not time that this awful risk to others by careless smokers should be taken account of by the law? It Is not a trivial matter. The tossing aBide of lighted matches and cigar butts without seeing where they land should be as much of a penal offense as bomb-throwing or Incendiarism. A careless cigarette, as far as known, caused the great fire in Baltimore, one of the biggest In the world's history and. wholly preventable. A careless match caused the recent fire in New York, with Its loss of valuable life and much loss of property—also wholly preventable. The careless user of a spark of fire Is an enemy of the public welfare and ought to be treated as each, we are as yet primitive in out outlook upon vital facts. A very pleasant prediction has been made by a college sociologist that the United States is due for war in 1930 and that this nation will be In the wrong, as probably by reason of Its wealth and importance, it will have become an international bully. He bases this assertion on the evidence of history. But to offset this are the facts that the direct rule of the people Is becoming more and more the national Ideal of government, and that with the people as a whole vitally In control, the peace sentiment ^will be stronger than ever. It is upon the masses, not the classes, that the horrors of war chiefly fall, and the element of self-interest will then be more engaged in the preservation of.peace than ever before in the history of the world. In the meantime, potential academic wars need sot seriously affect the national peace of mind- Proteseor von Waaserman has informed the Berlin Medical Society of amazingly successful experience in treating cancerous ulcers In mice with Injections of.s* preparation containing cosin, telliarranr and seleniuim.

Theodore Roosevelt is a candidate for the presidency. He says so himself. His letter replying to that of eight governors who urged him to accept the nomination was made public at the Outlook office Sunday night. Roosevelt's Letter. Gentlemen—I deeply appreciate your letter, and I realize to the full the heavy responsibility it puts upon me, expressing as it does the carefully considered convictions of the men elected by popular vote to stand as the heads of government in their several states. "I absolutely agree with yon that this matter is not one to be decided with any reference to the personal preferences or interests of any man, bufc purely from the standpoint of the interests of the people as a whple. I will accept the nomination for president if it is tendered to me and I will adhere to this decision until the convention has expressed its preference. One of the chief principles for which I have stood and for which I now stand, aud for which I have always endeavored and always shall endeavor to reduce to action, is the genuine rule of the people; and therefore I hope that so far as possible the people may be given the chance, tlirough direct primaries, to express their preference as to who shall be the nominee of the Republican presidental convention." Very truly yours, THEODORE ROOSEVELT. Rebels Trying to Excite the Mexicans. Declaring that the United States is attempting to get control of Mexico and is behind the abuses against which they claim to be fighting, the Mexican rebels issued a proclamation addressed to President Taft. The proclamation was seized by Texas rangers before it had been given much publicity. The proclamation is in Spanish and was taken to the printing office bv Gonzalo Enrile, said to be the former Mexican consul at Clifton, Ariz, The proclamation i» a harangue addressed to the president, but in reality written to excite the minds of the Mexican people, among whom tt was to be distributed. To Widen Scope of State Fair. The state fair to be held in Detroit beginning September 1G next will be the first one in the country to have an industrial exhibit on a large scale where the various processes of manufacture in many varied lines will be shown in a practical way, so that a visitor to the fair will be able to get a liberal education in how things like cigars, automobiles, shoes, stoves, cloth and other common articles of commerce are made by the most upto- date methods. The idea was conceived a year ago by Secretary and Manager J. E. Hannon, of the Michigan State Agricultural society, but it was then too late to carry it out in time for the state fair last fall. Loop the Stste With Road. Looping the state with a $5,000,000 trunk road highway which shall skirt the shores of the upper and lower peninsulas, draw thousands of tourists and cause the building of a chain of first-class summer hotels, is a necessary step In placing Michigan in its rightful place as the leading summer resort state of the country, according to Michael McLaughlin, Brooklyn real estate man, who has joined the ranks of Michigan landowners. "Michigan has more lake front than all the other states of the country combined," said Mr. McLaughlin. "It is the logical summer resort for the people of Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and.the middle south, Missouri and neighboring states and much of the territory of the east. "This is the day of the automobile and the time for the automobile is the summer. People who used to board trains and ride to summer resorts, where they would stay all season, now climb Into their automobiles and take more of a tour, visiting many places and spending a short time at each. Mayor Otto Sprague, of Owosso, who has served one term, has announced he will not seek re-election. Aid. G. Clark is a candidate for the place.

A. C. Michigan Death Rate Decreases. According to the annual mortality report compiled by Secretary of State Martindale, 37056 deaths occurred in Michigan last year, which is 1,841 less than in 1910. There were 6,852 deaths of infants under one year of age, or 18.5 per cent of all deaths returned to the department of state as having occurred last year. Acute anterior polllmyelltis, or Infantile paralysis, as it is commonly known in medical circle.8, caused 48 deaths during the past year. No comparison of previous years can be* made from the deaths caused by this disease as the year 1911 is the first in which the disease was segregated from the other diseases of the spinal cord. Secretary Martindale saj's that it is possible that some deaths from this disease may have escaped recognition, owing to the forms of return which are not sufficiently specific, in order that the chanceB of such omissions in__tha._future_may be reduced to a minimum, Secretary Martindale urges that all physicians use the accepted designation "acute anterior polliomyelitis" when., reporting this disease upon the certificate of death. As usual, tuberculosis was a great destroyer of life, 2,640 deaths resulting from this disease. The other principal causes of death were as follows: Typhoid fever, 532; diphtheria and croup, 437; scarlet fever* 196; measles, 196; whooping coughi 229; pneumonia, 2,670; diarrhea and enteritis, 1,487;. meningitis, 458; Influenza, 577; cancer, 2,035; smallpox, 5; violence, 2^333.

"Five, and another out m front; that leaves the eighth man inside. Bring our fellows up closer, and post them where they can cover those fellows asleep, while ! make an effort at breaking in here." Bristoe crawled back like a snail, and confident the others Would~db their part, Keith thrust his knife blade deep into the narrow crack and began probing atternhe latch. In spite of all caution this effort caused a slight noise, and, suddenly he started hack at the sound of a women's voice: "What do you want? I am armed, and will fire through the door if you do not go away!" , His heart leaping with exultation, Keith pot his lips close to the crack. "Hope." he exclaimed aa loudly as he dared.

"Yes, dear," soothingly, "and it Is good to hear you say Jack, but tell me one thing—is any one else in the cabin? Is Hawley here?" "No, no! He left us early the first morning. I haven't either seen or heard of him since. The men have left me alone since we got here; have bad the cabin all to myself until tonight.

Resistance was useless, and the five, rendered weaponless, were herded back toward the corraL They all belonged to Hawley's outfit; one, a black-whiskered surly brute Bristoe remembered having seen in Sheridan. There was no time to deal with them then, and a "Bar X" man was placed on guard, with orders to shoot at the slightest suspicious movement The Indian, then, would be guarding the front of the bouse, and Sanchez sleeping inside. Well, the former could be left alone; his chance of escape would be small enough with Falrbaln and Neb on the opposite bank. Old Sanchez was the villain they wanted—dead or alive. With, this in view, and anxious to make a quick Job of It, the three entered the back room, and, revolvers in hand, groped their way across to the connecting door. As Hope had described, this had been securely fastened by a stout wooden bar. Bristoe forced it from the sockets, not Without some slight noise, and Keith, crouching down at one side, lifted the latch, "Keep down low, boys," he cautioned, ''where he can't hit you." With one quick push he flung the door wide open, and a red flash lit the room. There were two sharp reports, the bullets crashing into the wall behind them, the sudden blaze ot flame revealing the front door open, and with It the black outline of a man's figure. Two of the men fired in instant response, leaping recklessly torward, but were as quickly left behind In the darkness, the outer door slammed In their faces. Outside there was a snarl of rage, another shot, a fierce curse in Spanish; then Keith flung the door wide open, and leaped down the step. As he did so he did so he struck a body and tell forward, his revolver knocked from his hand. Rising to his knees, the dim light of the stars revealed a man already half across the stream. Suddenly two sparks of fire leaped forth from the blackness of the opposite bank; the man flung up his band, stagfgered, then went stumbling up the stream, knee deep in water. He made a dozen yards, reeling as though drunk, and fell forward, face down across a spit of sand. Keith stared out at the black, motionless shape, felt along the ground for his lost gun, and arose to his feet Bristoe had turned over the dead body at the foot of the steps, and was peering down into the upturned face.

Place on the skewers and broil, or bread and fry on the skewer, in deep fat, and serve still on tne skewer, the diner using a l'ork to remove the food, piece by piece. To serve escal loped artichokes, salsify and similar vegetables: After boiling as usual, trim and season and place on scallop shells or individual baking platters and cover with cream sauce. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and melted butter and brown in oven. Potato and meat balls: Take twothirds minced cold meat and onethird mashed optatoes, season with salt, pepper and chopped parsley- Bind with egg yolks. Flour the hands and shape into balls, roll in flour and fry. Various ways of cooking kidneys beside making into stews are as follows J Kidneys with bacon—Slice tbe kidneys and broil with the bacon and serve with sippets of toast Veal kidney saute, with onions— Slice the kidneys and fry quickly with butter. When done, dish and cover while frying the onions. Serve on platter, kidneys in center and onions for a garnish. Veal kidney minced on toast—-Slice the kidneys and blanch until tender, then mince with a fourth ae much \ ham as kidney. Cook a cup of mushrooms minced In veal stock, or White sauce. Mix all together, season and serve hot. Macaroni is growing in popularity f in American homes. Perhaps the following combinations will be a welcome change from the ordinary "au gratln macaroni." Macaroni with minced ham—Cook the macaroni as usual, then mix with cold, cooked ham chopped fine. Add pepper and enough white sauce, or stock, to moisten, and bake. Macaroni with pork saueage-Cook the macaroni and drain. Fill a baking dish with a layer of It and then a layer of the sausage. If the latter Is encased, skin and slice it. Add white sauce and bake twenty minutes. Macaroni with flaked fish, oysters, tomatoes, maltre d'hotel butter, or lu croquettes or tlmbaleB, are other well liked styles. mortal coil by leaping Into the Fort Field reservoir, one of tbe reservoirs supplying Y aers with water Someder.

ORIGIN OF INOtAN RUNNttS Came From West ladlee aad Thought by Many People as ft Most Profitable of Duek Family. (By ANNA GJLLLI9HKR, ObJe.) It Is only comparatively a few years since the Indian Bunner ducks made their appearance in America. They came originally from the West Indies, where, they have been raised for years, chiefly as egg-producers. They derive their name from their native land and racy, upright carriage. In color they are fawn and white, with yellow shanks and light-green bill; the latter being sometimes splashed with black. The body is long and narrow aad is carried in an almost upright position. Neck is lone; and thin, with finely formed head. The Indian Runner ia rather small, fully' matured ducks weighing from four to five pounds. Drakes from five to six pounds, live weight. But they grow very rapidly while young and are easy to raise. What they lack in weight Is more'than made up for in their other good qualities. To begin with, they are very proline layers; beginning when about six months old. Their eggs are vara white and a little larger than those of a Plymouth Rock hen. They are superior ia quality to any "It's very tragic," said young Mrs. Allison. "You know my Aunt Elvira?" The matron with auburn hair nodded. "The poor woman who was so 111 at your house last summer/' she said. "Poor nothing,** contradicted young Mrs. Allison, sternly. "There's nothing the matter With Aunt Elvira but imaginary diseases. She's so crabbed -^that-herown children won^Tttvewfl her, and she's so rich that her other relatives have to. She takes a private car down to Florida every winter and I had thought that Fred and I could make rather pleasant use of an invitation to go with her this year, because Fred didn't get any vacation in the summer. , "Well, my love, last week Saturday I positively dragged Fred home from the office to go out to the Country' club with me in the afternoon. I felt that m r system demanded the diversion and I didn't want to go alone. It was a horrid, chilly trip and our supper out there was miserable. When we got home this is the message written on Aunt Elvira's visiting card that met me In the hand of the maid: "'Dear Celeste—Fm sorry you couldn't take time from your pursuit of pleasure to comfort my tired and travel stained self. I'm going over to Cousin Emma's. Respectfully, A- tt'" Indian Runner Drake and Duek. duck's eggs that we have ever eaten, and as a rule, they bring higher prices In the market. The ducklings reach a marketable sice when about twelve weeks old. When forced, they will weigh ffcor to five pounds at two months. The meat of the Runner is of superior quality; fine in the grain* Juicy, and excellent flavor. Hotels and restaurants pay fancy prices for ducklings. The eggs are in good demand, ess*.

There Is no great danger of strong competition^ M _cpmjjarativeiy__few poultry raisers have taken up 4hi* branch of the industry, notwithstanding the fact that nearly all kinds of poultry products are bringing un» heard-of prices In the open market In summer, the Indian Runner when given free range will find the greater part of his living in the fields. But of course when being fattened for market, they need some grain. It would be well to say right here that for best Tftsults tbe grain should be either ground or cooked.

"Oh, no," said young Mrs, Allison, composedly, "not having, a sixth sense for her arrivals in tows. Its jest one of her little eccentricities, that's all!

When winter comes snd the ground freeses, or is covered with snow a good deal ot the time, grit must be supplied. Gravel or grit should he sharp, so as to both cut and grind. Smooth pieces of gravel will not answer the purpose. Gravel dug from a pit will make one of the best grits. When pounded into small pieces, broken crockery win make excellent grit, also. A little sand mixed with the other grtt is helpful, hut it will: not answer for exclusive use, not being sharp nor coarse enough. It you prefer, you can buy prepared grit from the dealers in poultry sup* plies, A good many people do this and a good many other people hay oyster shells with the belief that they are obtaining grit The hens nee: some of the oyster shells, as they suppfr the system with lime and carbonates, but they win not take the pace of grit They are too soft and digest rather than grind. Keep wen nUed grit boxes where the hens can rum to them at wffl during the wmter months and you wffl mud that they oonemno quite a lot of the material in a month's time. Pi* vising the grit to botes and allowing' the hens to help them serves is the best may of feeding ft.

Bearing the racket the wife ran out, upset a four-gallon churnfnl of rich cream into a basket of little chickens drowning the entire hatch. In her haste she dropped a $25 set of false teeth. The baby, having been left alone crawled through the spilled milk and into the parlor ruining a bran new $20 carpet During the excitement tbe oldest daughter ran away with the hired man and the dog broke up eleven setting bens and the calves got out and chewed the tails off n four fine shirts on the clothes-line.

Yet, since seaweeds are the only vegetation found .over three-fourths of the superficial area of the earth, it must be obvious that their place in the economy of nature must be far from being insignificant. In their native element the most important function of these seaweeds Is the same as that performed by ordinary forms of vegetation on land'—that of rendering animal life possible. They take the element* existing in water as impurities and transform them into materials essential to animal life. It is evident, therefore, that the seaweeds are not quite as useless as they are supposed to be. Along the coast of New England, the British Isles and western Europe they are used as fertilizers. In many countries they are fed to 6Wine and cattle. In Holland they have been employed In the building of dykes. Sometimes they are used to, stuff mattresses, cushions and upholstered furniture. Experiments have been carried on to use them as a substitute for wood pulp in the manufacture of paper. But the Japanese have attained the climax of utility In the employment of the seaweeds. In the bay of Tokyo 2,500 acres are planted every year with the red laver, a Bea plant, which Is transformed Into a dried and loasted powder which is of highly nutritious value, being rich In proteids. These weeds are planted In a very curious manner. In October and November bundles of bamboo or brush are prepared and taken to the grounds in boats at low tide. J>eep holes are made in the muddy bed of the bay by thrusting down through the water an elongated conical wooden frame with two long upright wooden handles. Into each of these holes is placed one of these brush bundles, forming long rows that project above the water. The brushes afford a lodging place for the spores of the red laver and they become attached to the twigs and develop within three or four months into plants which are fit to be harvested. They are then tlon of the by-products such as chloride of potash, eutr dried, prcssedV toastedand ground late—a ttigi^-^iinina^ dpvtrin, mannit* and other salts. powder. This red laver grows abundantly along including sodium alginate. the coasts of the United States. The United States, however, has one seaweed - J3f_gleater_lm_portance than this Is the manufac- industry of commercial Importance in Irish moss, ture of a seaweed Isinglass which Is exportedfrom - --gr-form~or srhjathatgrows -Abundantly along the ting of these weeds In the Channel Islands, forms an important part of the farmer's work at certain times of the year. Laver, prepared from a species of porphyra, is valued as a delicate condiment in ths-west of England, and'a similar preparation from ulva latissima is known as green laver. Dulse (rhodymenla palmata) and tangles (the young stalks of laminaria digitata and L. saccharlna) have been used for food in times of scarcity, but must be difficult of digestion. The last named species yield mannite. Among the best known forms of green seaweeds are the tubular entermorphia, or pipe-weed; the branched cladophora; ulva, or sea lettuce, with flat spreading fronds; the feathery bryopsis, like a miniature palm tree; and the button-like codlum, or sea purse. The brown seaweeds are arranged In three groups—phaoosnoreae, fucaceae and dictyotaceae —according to their mode of reproduction. In all there are about 170 genera, chiefly from the colder seas, and varying in size from the minute ectocarpus growing on species of fucus to the gigantic macrocystis and lessonla of the Antarctic. The floating thallus of the former may reach a-"length of a thousand feet, and tho branching Japan to all the countries of the world. There are hot less than 500 establishments in Japan which are making this Isinglass. It is prepared from seaweeds of the genus Gelidium. They are foiled, strained and filtered in order to separate the. gelatine from the other materials. The ready product is white, shiny and semi-transparent and is *«sed in making jellies, soups, sauces and to 9Btfo the wine of the natives, which is made free* r*e and Is called "sake." In the United .vnHWH.-iK is chiefly employed In food preparations '**#!» gelatine is required. It is also used for *he>*izlng of textiles, the stiffening of the warp Of silk, the clarifying of wines, beer and coffee, $,#*j*he making of molds in the manufacture of paper. 4&'In ail civilized countries *the Japanese gelatine, under the name of agar-agar, is used exclusively "AS the culture medium fn bacteriological work. Large shipments of this gelatine are also sent to the schnapps factories in Holland. The most abundant of all seaweeds are the kelps, distributed along every coast line. From these the Japanese prepare "kombu," which en* ters into the dietary of every family in Japan- It Is used as a vegetable, cooked with soups, fish and meats, it Is. also made into confections andbeverages. . ,••<'•• Iodine has been manufactured from kelps for many years, but the price has been so reduced by the working of the nitrate fields of Peru that its manufacture from kelps in the United States can hfi made attractive and profitable only by utlliza- Atlantic coast, particularly north of Cape Cod. The center of the industry is at Scituate, Mass., where It has been exploited for over three-quarters of a century. The average annual output at present is about 800,000 pounds, valued at $25,000. It is used chiefly for making blanc mange, and Is also employed In making cough remedies, jellies and puddings. It is also used for clarifying beer and in sizing fabrics. In Roman times an alkaline dye was prepared from seaweed, probably from fucus vesiculosus, the common bladderwrack. The "seaweed pictures" sold at watering places almost invariably contain a large proportion of the dried external skeletons of plant-like animals, such as the seamats (flustra) and sea-firs (sertularia). Between twenty and fifty fathoms seweeds are rare, beyond that depth their occurrence Is exceptional. The principal natural means of distribution are, of course, ocean currents; but man counts for Something, inasmuch as species are brought from port to port on the bottom of ships. Among the chief barriers must be reckoned stretches of deep sea, coast deserts of sand and mud, and the irruption of fresh water lowering the salinity of the neighboring tidal water. Prob* ably the oldest seaweed known is one of siphoneous structure, described as from the Devonian rocks Besides being used in the manufacture of iodine, the coarser brown seaweeds are also collected for manure, and the vralk or wrack harvest, or cuttree- stalk of the latter is several yards high, and as thick as a man's arm. Sargassum, or 'gutfweed, is included here. These belong to the Qr8t group; In which a sexual reproduction is effected by swarm-spores; sexual reproduction also takes place by the conjugation of cells, usually differing from swarm-spores only by their fusion. Here also belong the tangles (laminaria), with fronds borne on a stalk that shows .some advance In structure, In the fucaceae, of which the bladderwrack (fucus), sea-oak (halidrys), and sea-thongs (hirnanthalia) are''^bmm6n"ex^fflpleTri*srfeina*e' cells are non-motile, and the male cells freeswimming; a sexual reproduction does not occur. The common Dlctyota dlcbotoma and the rarer peacock weed (padina pavonla) may well represent the third group. A sexual reproduction Is effected.Jby non-motile spores; the male and the female cells are also non-motile. A single cell is produced in, and ejected from, the female organ; the male cells do not bear cilia. According to Strasburger the process of fertilization has not been observed. The third group contains nearly 300 genera,. mostly from temperate and tropical seas. The vast harvest of the j»ea, as represented by the algae that grow to maturity and then decay along our extended coast lines and are wasted, Is capable of adding tens of millions to the wealth of the nation, of supporting numerous industries that would give permanent employment to many thousands of people, and of relieving American manufacturers from dependence upon foreign sources of supply for chemicals and other materials used in various arts and industries.

He was always ready for salmon fishing, and on several occasions went to Ireland with Mr. Geprge Penbody, the American philanthropist One day Mr. Bright, noticing a policeman on the bank, inquired of him what sum the boatmen were entitled to ask for rowing up the Shannon on a day's fishing. Mo said that from seven shillings and sixpence to ten shillings was the usual payment. Mr. Bright said to Mr. Pea-body, "Have you three half-crowns? I have no change." Mr, Peabody produced the money and gave it to the boatman. He was dissatisfied, and said: "And is that all ye're giving me?" "That's all," replied Mr. Peabody.

"In much of the west cattle raising for beef has long been the principal business," said Secretary Wilson, "but dairying Is comparatively new. There is an extensive market, however, for dairy products; and especially in the newly settled regions It is found that the dairy industry nils such va place in agricultural economy that its development is urgently needed. "In addition, a special enterprise has been undertaken with creamery patrons In Iowa, the object being to determine whether it will pay creameries to carry on the same sort ol work among their own farmer patrons for the sake of getting a better quality of cream as material for making butter. Here, also, record keeping has been introduced, along with other improved methods, and the effort ie made to discover the leaks that reduce profits. "Indfch© older states of the north, where dairying is already an established industry, the work of the, department outside of advice to individuals upon request, consists chiefly in the propagation fit cow-testing asso ciations and the improvement of city milk supplies. Cow-testing associa tions are societies for co-operating in the keeping of herd records by engaging a man who goes from farm tc farm periodically, makes observations and keeps records for the herds of all the members of the association. By this means records are secured without the trouble or expense involved when each man keeps them for himself; and in various otlxer ,ways the co-operation of the farmers is productive of profit. The primary objects are to- detect and weed out inferior Individual cows, and by the use ol purebred bulls to perpetuate and intensify the valuable characteristics ol the cows that are found to be good ones—thus raising the average quality of the individual cow and the total productiveness of the herd. There are 85 cow-testing associations now in 26 states, comprising 45,000 cows. "The records of one of these associations show that the profit was doubled after four years' work. For instance, a man with eight cows found, the first month of keeping records, that he was losing five and onehalf cents per cow, or 44 cents on his herd for that month. After three months' testing he was making a profit of |32 a month on the herd, and at the; end of the year his profits had increased to $50 a month. This notable increase was due largely to the sale of five of his poorest Cows, and the purchase of as many well-producing ones to take their places. In addition, there were changes made in the methods of feeding which conducedNto the result." LANTERN HANGER FOR BARNS Safe and Handy Way to Use Light In Stable Is Shown in Illustration— Won't Turn Over. The hanger shown In the sketch makes a safe and handy way to use a lantern in a barn or Btable. It is constructed of an old grooved pulley with a U-Bhaped hanger made of sheet iron. The U-shaped hanger, says the Popular Mechanics, Is made of a screw eye Lantern Hanger for a Barn. cut off and riveted in place, the hook being formed of heavy wire. The pul* ley is run on a wire stretched overhead from one end of the barn to the other. The lantern can be easily moved from place to place, and, as It is out of the way, it cannot he turned over. Palatability is an important feature of good dairy rations. Facilities for handling milk are giv ing an impetus to the market. Don't let the cows out in the storms to stand around. It doesn't pay. It Is rather a difficult task to dry tip a cow when in fulr flow of milk. If a cow has a habit of side-stepping while milking, examine your flngei nails. A cow producing average testlnj milk should yield from 7,000 to 8,uot pounds of milk in a year. Gentleness and patience with the heifer that has calved for the first time will win Out every time. Just after the cow has freshened she should have too same feeds she has been given, previous to calving., To feed cows profitably without some home grown sort of protein, such as the leguminous hays, is difficult. Sweet corn is one of the very besl crops to grow ^to feed as a soiling crop to the- dairy c o m in summer. It is best to reduce the milk pro* duciBg food, so that • mature cow wii dry. and rest for'a month to six week* before calving. •;;;> Be good to the cows.

Lover of These Delectable faofsels May Partake of Them With Enjoyment. In vain does the cry of Socrates come to us, down the. ages—"Beware of foods that persuade yon to **t though not hungry, and a t Jliquo^i OHt prevail with you to drink though apt thirsty:** '••'.'; ';^| A breakfast of sausajres* wb«*fc! cakes and fragrant cofee is all'that is needed to make ua forget4]¾¾ henpecked sage's warning. 4 ^ r - : Here are ways of cooking saus^ea so all lovers of the delectable mor^eje may eat them safely: • Instead of frying sausages, put them to cook in enough boiling water* to almost cover. Add no fat. . Simmer gently, until the water is evaporated- Enough grease win now be rendered from the meat to fry them, and the, casing will be unbroken. Lift the links from the frying pan and roll in flour. Fry until the coating is crisp and brown. The flour prevents the sausages from breaking open and does ont allow the rendered grease to be reabsorbed. If a little ground sage be mixed with the flour, the flavor will be improved. The new method of paper-bag cookery is excellent for cooking sausage cakes. Shape the cakes, place in bags, press out the air, and cook in hot oven fifteen minutes. Open the bottom, of the bag and drain out the fat from the pork. Serve on a hot platter. Broiled sausages with rice give a well-balanced dish for a wintry day*a breakfast. Place small link sausages on the broiler with dripping pan beneath, broil slowly, and serve around a mound-of creamed rice. Sausages with baked creamed'PoUtoes— To every pound of bulhv sansage meat add an ounce of ground mived herjtiv- A good mixture to make and keep on hand for such season as this is two ounces, of ground sagefe.a fourth of an ounce of cayenrie* pgpper, one ounce of thyme, qne ounce of ma* joram, and one of celery salt. Shape into cakes and fry for five minutes. Fill a baHlng dish with diced.potatoes^, cover with cream, lay the saugag©' cakes on top, and hake In a Hot oven fifteen minutes, or until the cream is absorbed and the meat a good color. Where sausage is liked but cannot be eaten on account of its richness, it may be made at home and mixed with lean beef or veal in the proportion most approved. Two parts rean meat to She part pork will give a mixture In which the pork flavor will still predominate. Home-made sausage is much in favor, since the commercial product all contains "filler," presumably some cereal or stale bread. The food-chopper how found In every kitchen does the .grinding as well as the butcher's and the particular housekeeper has the satisfaction of knowing just what the ingredients of the sausage are. Favorite Brown Bread. Two cups sweet milt and 1 of sour, 2 cups of meal and\l of flour, 1 cup of molasses and 1½ teaspoons of saleratus, with a pinch of salt. Mix meal and flour. Add the cup of molasses or use half molasses and sugar, then the sour milk and-the-sweet after. Just before pouring into the dish that you intend to steam in, add the soda. A five-pound lard pail makes a good dish and set on a block or cover inverted in your kettle. Be sure that the water is boiling in the kettle when the mixture Is put In, as this is quite thin and wants to set quickly. Do not look at it for at least an hour, and be sure that there is water enough so as not to require refilling before this time at least. Keep it steaming for three hours, and tell me how you like It. (Meal is Indian meal.) Water can be- used instead of sweet milk. Dried Fruit. Dried 'fruit tastes just as good when stewed in the oven, and this method has its advantages—the fruit will not dry and burn, It will remain whole, and may be cooked while roasting or baking. Wash the fruit, pour boiling water over it and let it stand in a covered dish until ready to put In the w e n Then add the sugar, cover lightly and let the heat of the oven do the sooking. Prunes are always delicious when stewed in this way. FLAX GROWING IS PROFITABLE > .—f_ . : WESTKflN CANAbA FARMERS BECOMING RICH m ITS PRODUCTION. go much h&U peeu milieu regaidlug the great amount of money made out of growing wheat in the prairie provinces o£ Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alhercl,, Western Panada, that many other product* of the farms are overlooked. These provinces will always grow large areas of wheat—both spring and winter—and the yields will /continue to be large, and the general ' average^ greater than in any other porfkavo* the continent. Twenty, thirtjyfc forty, and as high as fifty bushels pef acfe o! wheat to the acre^—yields, unusual in 6ther parts of the wheat growing portions of the continent— have attracted world-wide attention, but what of oats, which yield forty, fifty and as high as one hundred and ten bushels per acre and carry off the world's prize, which, by the way, was also done by wheat raised in Saskatchewan during last November at the New Tork Land Show. And then, there is the barley, with its big yields, and .Its excellent samples. Another money-maker, and a big one is flax. The growing of flax is extensively carried on in Western Canada. The writer has before him a circular issued by a prominent farmer at Saskatoon. The circular deals with the treatment of seed flax, the seeding and harvesting, and attributes yields of less than 20 bushels per acre, to later seeding, imperfect and illy-prepared seed. He sowed, twenty-five pounds of seed per acre and had a yield of twentyrnlne bushels per acre. This will probably dispose of at $2.50 per acre. Speaking of proper preparation of seed and cultivation of soil and opportune Bowing, in the circular spoken of there is cited the case of a Mr. White, living fourteen miles south of Rosetown, "who had fifteen acres of summer fallow a year ago last summer, upon which he produced thirty-three bushels to the acre, when many in the district harvested for want of crop. Now, there can be no proper reason advanced why such a crop should not have been produced on all the lands of the same quality in the adjacent district, provided they had been worked and cared for in the same manner. This year (1911) the same man had one hundred acres of summer fallow, had something over 3,800 bushels of wheat. He also had 1,800 bushelB of oats and 300 bushels of flax." There are the cattle, the horses, the roots and the vegetable products of Western Canada farms, all of which individually and collectively deserve special mention, and they are treated! of in the literature-sent out on application by the Government agents. i " m i ^ . . 1 . < » i i ... i , m mf Touch Preventer.

"Say, will you play this solo part over for me T" asked the tenor, as he hastily throw off his bat and overcoat and placed his music In front of the organist. "Just give me my pitch, please." "I'm sorry, but I can't play it now," replied the organist. "You're nearly half an hour late and we've got to ?et through all these hymns, besides the anthem. Tou should have come earlier." He closed the music in front of him. "Grouch!" muttered the tenor, as he took the music and sat down with the about rest of the choir. "Say," he whispered to the Boprano, "if we don't get a new organist pretty soon they'll have to get a new tenor. I'm tired of being sat upon by that fellow."

There are four beats, and on the fifth every one of you come in. Now, try again, and see if you can count four." Again he played the chords. "Oh, just a minute," interrupted the soprano, "What is my note? I never can get the right pitch. Hit my note when you play the opening chord louder than the rest, will you?" She beamed upon the organist. "Now, see here!" exclaimed the organist. "I gave every one of you a copy of this thing to practice at some. Tou all ought to know it like your own names.

"Let's try over one of the old ones, and take this one up for next week. .The people won't know the difference, and well murder this one if we try to sing it.'* "Let's!" eagerly assented the contralto. "Oh, yet, let's!** said the soprano and the baas, in one voice. "All right" agreed the organist "Pick out what you please. I've gpt to go now. Let me kaowwhat you're going to sing."

Carrying passengers and freight ii airships as a definite transportatior enterprise 1B -perhaps a long way off but significant of the faith of men 1c the possibilities of commercial avia cion Is the formal incorporation of i company in New Jersey for this pur pose, says the Washington Herald The expressed intention of the incor porators set forth in the articles o) incoration is the "building and opera tion of and the carriage of passenger* and freight in aeroplanes." As fre quently pointed out, the science and practice of aviation is making remarkable progress. By means of the dtrl gible airship and the hydro-aeroplane experts have begun to see that it will be possible some time to use the ah as a means of transit, much as the earth is now employed for that pur pose. As bearing upon the question of realizing this end, it is only nececssary to consider that the evolution oi the locomotive and steamship has been slow; that It has taken many yeari to bring the trolley car to perfection, and that the automobile is at least a quarter of a century old as a practical road machine. Fast as the airmen save progressed with their inventions and experiments, we need not expect much greater advancement in a less period of time than has been the case with vehicles running on land and through the seas. MEN "HIGHER* " U P " T 6 BE SOUGHT AFTER T R I A L . OF THOSE UNDER ARREST. SAYS HE SHOT WEEEt H. S. HOCKIN EXPECTED TO T U R N S T A T E EVIDENCE. Total of 54 Labor leaders Are Under Indictment, Charged With Nationwide Conspiracy to Blow Up Structures. The entire property of Illinois is reported to he $2,318,333,241. If that were divided among the people each one would get $411.11. Where in ten years from now would that per capita be? It would undoubtedly undergo a great change. A few men would have $500,000 of It, a few more $100,- 000 of it; many more $50,000, and so on until we get to the point where very many men wouldn't have 15 cents. How can we account for this wonderful change? For various reasons. Some men are smarter than others, some more diligent, some more frugal, some more temperate. These facts can explain why this $411 per capita has disappeared. While the circumstances, the environment, the vicissitude may account for some of the change, most of the change can be referred to the man himself—his character, his habit, his disposition, his appetite—under the Influences of which, if bad, that $411 vanishes and reappears in the hands of the man who has been sober, diligent, frugal and wide awake. Forty-one arrests, with a certainty there will be others, represents the work of the federal grand jury in the dynamiting case in Indianapolis, and it is not denied that there are from 15 to 20 others who have been caught in the net and will be arrested. Nearly all the accused men are now, or have been members of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers' organization. They were in the great conspiracy to destroy property and break up the open shop movement, however, and each- is charged with some other act in connection with members of the Iron Workers in the work of deatruction,. Fourteen of those indicted are each required to furnish $10,000 bond, and 40 are each required to furnish $5 000 bond, making an aggregate bond required of $340,000. Some of those whom the government was unable to find were reported to have disappeared through fear of inability to get bond. It was intimated that the ironworkers' association would be unable to furnish security for its indicted members. Escape Death on D. T. M. Trestle. Twelve residents of Deerfield had a narrow escape from death on the Detroit, Monroe & Toledo short line electric railway trestle over Otter creek, The party, which had been on its way to the home of Samuel McCarthy and his bride of a few hours, wllere they were to attend the wedding supper, had neglected to signal the intorurban to stop. They got off further down the line and had started to walk back. As all were crossing the trestle a car from the north bore down on them and all jumped, with the exception of Samuel McCarthy, brother of the groom, and his grandmother. The latter stumbled and as he stooped to pick her up the car struck him, hurling him from the trestle to the 1'rpzen creek 18 feet below. Dying Man Declare* He Shot the Famous Kcntuckian.

GoBBip In Great Britain continues to wag Its tongue over the reported coolness between King George and the Gaekwar of Baroda, The story persists that at the durbar everyone was astonished at the Gaekwar's appear* ance In a black frock coat, while the other princes wore their native robes and marvelous gems. The queen, it is said, gave the Gaekwar a frozen atare and the king merely nodded, The Gaekwar responded with a curter nod, turned his back and made a distinct grimace. It is asserted that his punishment, aside from forcing an apology, will be that of cutting down his royal salute of twenty-one guns and classing him as a second-rate ruler. Anglo-Indians consider this dangerous, and believe the incident would better have been ignored, on —account of the Gaekwar's great wealth and popularity among.his subjects. Workingmen's Bill May Be Included. It Is said that Gov. Osborn, in his message to the legislature, will include for consideration the workingmen's compensation bill. R. L.

P. M. Ry. Taxes Lowered. The BtfttP tax commiasin paring final figures on the assessed valuation of the corporations in the state who are assessed under the ad valorem system of taxation. The report shows that the Pere Marquette valuation has been reduced $300,000 by the commission from their tentative assessment made a few weeks ago. This decrease, It is stated, is on account of the fact that the commission- is in sympathy with the road, owing to its present financial condition. Lennon Bank Affairs Straightened. Following a conference between E. Bert Jenney, his father and the directors of the new state band at Lennon, announcement was made that the depositors of Jenney's private bank, which the latter sold to the new state Institution, would be paid dollar for dollar. Final arrangements were also made for the transfer of the property. It is understood that Jenney's father, a wealthy Californian, came to the rescue of his son and provided sufficient funds to cover all shortages.

Yuan Shi Kai also telegraphed to Dr. Wu Ting Fang, the republican minister of justice, and to Tang Shao Yi, his representative, urging them to endeavor to secure the election of Dr. Sun Yat Sen as president of the republic in his place. In his dispatch he said: "I am unable to control the involved situation in China, as I am suffering from impaired health. Now that the aims of the republicans have been attained I have accomplished my doty. The post of president of the republic would only serve to lead to my ruin. I ask your kind offices and interest with the people of the country to elect Dr. Sun Yat Sen, to whom credit should be given. I will wait until I am relieved. Then I will return to my home and resume my work as a husbandman." The new constitution of the provisional government will be approved by the assembly at Nankin, after which it will be notified by a delegation which will start for the north. Dr. Sun Yat Sen in an interview urged that an appeal should be made to foreigners to contribute to the relief of the famine in China. . Ask Recognition. A delegation of the China Society of America, composed of 1,000 Chinese- American residents of New York, appeared before the president, the senate foreign relations committee, the house foreign affairs committee and the Chinese ambassador, and urged the Immediate recognition by the United States of the republic of China. MaJ.. Lewis Livingston Seaman, president of the society, V. K. Wellington Koo, secretary, and Marcus M. Marks, called at the White House, where they presented a» resolution which "earnestly requests the president of the-- united States to be the first amon» the representatives of foreign nationB to accord recognition te the republican government in China."

"J* By this time Keith had reached a definite decision as to his course, if the fugitives received a fresh relay f horses down there somewhere, and sed the Arkansas, he felt positivere as to their destination, But it aid be useless pushing on after hem in the present shape of his party —their horses worn out, and Walte reeling giddily in the saddle. If Hawley's outfit crossed the upper ford, toward which they were evidently heading, and struck through the sand hills, then they were making for the refuge of that lone cabin on Salt Fork. Should this prove true, then it was prdbable the gambler had not even yet discovered the identity of Hope, Tor if he had, he would scarcely venture upon taking her there, knowing that Keith would naturally stTspecT the spot But Keith would not be likely to personally take up the trail in cearch, for Christie Maclaire. ylt must have been Hawley then' who had left the party and ridden east, and up to that time he had not found out his mistake/ l e t if he brought out the fresh animals the chances were that Hope's identity would be revealed.

Brlstoe favor- •4 clinging to the trail, even though they must travel slowly, but Falrbaln insisted that Walte must be taken to torn* town- where he could be given necessary care.

This was not so easily accomplished owing to the nature of the ground, but at last the searchers stumbled onto tracks close in under the bank, and one of these revealed tbe split hoof. "That makes it clear, Ben," exclaimed Keith, decidedly, staring out across the river at the white sandhills. "They have kept on the edge of the water, making for the ford, which is yonder at the bend. They are out in the sand desert by this time riding for the Salt Fork.

They were two weary days reaching Carson City, traveling along the open trail yet meeting with no one, not even a mall coach passing them. McClurg ft Co.. »».> Fork. Now, angry with baffled ambition, and a victim of her trickery, there was no guessing to what extremes the desperado might resort. The possibilities of such a situation made the slightest delay in rescue an agony almost unbearable. Reaching Carson City, and perfectly reckless as to his own safety there from arrest, the plainsman lost no time In perfecting arrangements for pushing forward. Horses and provisions were procured, and be very fortunntely discovered in town two cowboys belonging to the "Bar X" outfit, their work there accomplished and about ready to re* turn to the ranch on the Canadian, who gladly allied themselves with his party, looking forward to the possibilities of a fight with keen anticipation. Keith was more than ever delighted with adding these to his outfit, when, on the final arrival of the others, the extra man brought from Sheridan announced that he had had enough, and was going to remain there. No efforts made revealed any knowledge of Hawley's presence in Carson City; either he had not been there, or else his friends were very carefully concealing the fact. The utter absence of any trace, however, led Keith to believe that the gambler had «one elsewhere—probably to Fort Larned—for his new outfit, and this beliet left him more fully convinced than ever of the fellow's efforts to conceal his trail. The party escorting Waite reached the town in the evening, and in the following gray dawn the adventurers forded the river, and mounted on fresh horses and fully equipped, headed forth into the sand hills. The little company now consisted of Keith, Falrbaln, who, in spite of his rotundity of form had proven himself hard and more horrible by Its semblance to water, yet never tempting them to stray aside. After the first mile conversation ceased, the men riding grimly, silently forward, latent only on covering all the distance possible. Late that night they camped at the waterhole, sleeping as best they could, scourged by the chill wind which swept over them and lashed grit into exposed faces. With the first gray of dawn they swung stiffened forms into the saddles and rode on, straight as the crow flies, for the Salt Fork. They attained that stream at sundown, gray with sand dust, their faces streaked from perspiration, feeling as though the sun rays had burned their brains, with horses fairly seeling under them. According to Keith's calculation this cattle-ford must be fully ten miles below where the cabin sought was situated; two hours' rest, with water and food, would put both horses and men again in condition, and the traveling was easier along the bank of the Fork. With this In mind, cinches were loosened, the animals turned out to graze, and the men, snatching a hasty bite, flung themselves wearily on the ground. All but Falrbaln were asleep when Keith aroused them once more, a little before nine, unable in his Impatience to brook longer delay. Within ten minfutes horses were saddled, weapons looked to carefully, and the little party began their advance through the darkness, moving cautiously over the uneven ground, assisted greatly by the bright desert stars gleaming down upon them from the cloudless sky overhead. The distance proved somewhat less than had been anticipated, and Keith's watch waa not yet at eleven, when his eyes revealed the fact that they had reached the near vicinity of the lonely island on which the cabin stood. ^Reining In his horse sharply, he swung to the ground, the others instantly following hlB example, realising they had reached the end of the route Hand* instinctively loosened revolvers in readiness for action, the younger of the "Bar X" men whistling softly In an effort to appear unconcerned. Keith, with a gesture, gathered them more closely about him. "If Hawley is here himself," he said quietly, watching; their faces In the starlight, "he will certainly have a guard set, and there may be one anyhow. We can't afford to take chances, for there will be five men, at least, on the island, and possibly several more. If they are looking for trouble they will naturally expect it to come from the north—consequently we'll mako our attack from the opposite direction, and creep in on them under the shadow of the corral.

PUT ON MOURNER'S BENCH Little Dorothy Explains Break In Oe> vetlonal Exercises for Her Family of Do!It. Little Dorothy la the daughter or* a minister. She has a family of fifteen dolls, one of them being a parson. Dorothy la devoted to her treasures. For a long time she held religious service for them, but suddenly the services were discontinued, only to be as unexpectedly resumed. "Why did you stop the services, Dorothy?" she was asked. MOh, the dolls decided not to have them any more." "But why were they started again?" They all voted that way, that is—" Dorothy hesitated, but she added, regretfully, "All except the clown aad the Teddy bear.** They ^ere regarded at incorrigible by the miniater'a small daughter. Next day at the services they were seated Immediately in front ot the doU preacher, tfc# other dolls occupying loss promlneat places. "Why are the clown and the Teddy bear sitting so far forward r in* quired Dorothy's father. "Oh," was the reply, "X thought they most seeded to hear the sermon." ACritical • Employer Pretty, winsome Harriett Lennox had been clerking at Mareton'e department store for nearly two months. Already she had lost the pretty color from her cheeks and she found it much harder to sell a waist than sue Imagined it could be when formerly ahe had the money to purchase whatever she desired. % "Did that woman buy the waist she was looking at?" questioned Nora. "No, after 1 had wasted a quarter of an hour showing her everything in stock she said: These waists are beautiful, but I haven't the money, my dear.'" "That's the way it is with those 'old hens,'" commented Nora. "They seem to have nothing on earth to do but to pester salesladies, and some women think because they have plenty of money it's their privilege to leave their manners at home." "The very words 'lingerie waists' gives.me a pain," admitted Harriett. "I'm weary of trying to make a thirty- six waist fit a woman who takes size forty-four, when we happen to be out of her size." "No, madam," she said, turning around, "we haven't any blue chiffon, waists with chenille trimming and gold braid. I'm sure she wouldn't buy one tf we had it." "What's the trouble with you? You seem so disheartened," asked Nora sympathetically. 'This is the first position I ever had, but I presume I can stand the customers. I try my best, but the way a girl is treated Just because she has to earn her living Is disgraceful." -> "You're too haughty," advised Nora. "Be a little more agreeable. If the manager tells you to sell a waist for all silk, sell it for that, and don't explain to the would-be customer that It Is only near-silk, sewed with nearallk thread, not made in a union shop, and that it is embroidered by machinery and not by hand." "Possibly I'm wrong, but no difference what I do or say he, Mr. Mar« ston, the proprietor, always finds fault when he goes by this department. Either the boxes aren't straight, or the waists are laid on the table crooked, or I should have made a sale; I went to lunch or came back too late. If my mother wasn't dependent upon me I'd leave this • in- Btant." "Strange, Mr. Marston should be so critical. He Is so full of business that he usually leaves the minor details to his managers. Cheer up, you'll get used to it twenty years from now; you'll even wonder that you noticed such things as impertinent shoppers and critical employers." "Twenty years from now, gracious! Don't mention waists in connection with.tbe future to me. I'd like to waste my time that long selling waists marked down from $3 to $2.98, and others marked up from |2.98 to $8.98." "If you continue to dress in that convent fashion," said the other girl, glancing admiringly at her own overtrimmed gown, "dress your hair In that absurd simple style, never put any color on your face when you look ghastly pale, and not make the least effort to please the men—" "Thank you for your well-meant vice, but the men I'm likely ±0 meet ...

"Poor thing," said Nora to one of the girls as Harriett, shaking like an aspen leaf, started for the third floor. "She is- go refined. I wanted to help her, but I guess she is going to lose her position. Only recently they lost all their money. It breaks her mother's heart that she has to work." As Harriett entered the spacious office, Mr. Marston arose saying kindly: "Why are you trembling?" "I'm sorry I didn't suit you "/began Harriett, gaining courage. "But you did. I know all about youy I've watched you since the first day you came. Grasped every opportunity to talk with you without making R evident. Now X want to ask you how would you like to become the owner of this store." "Sir," Bald Harriett, "how dare you ask me to come to your office %o insult me?" T m not insulting you. Tm asking you to marry me. Tm a lonely man, and I want yon for my wife. Don't answer me; go home, talk it oyer with your mother, and all I ask is for you to give me a chance for us to become acquainted." _ When Harriett left the office sfce bad promisocT to "think it over." "Are you going to l e a v e ? asked Nora, when she appeared with, bar bat and oloak on. "Yes. 8ome day you'll know why.

As a warrior and as a statesman he won fame In a superlative degree and y e t It may be found, upon reaearcb, that h e showed the same exceptional fJMaer ure of ability in the more modest pursuits of planter and country squire. There Is, however, o n e branch of the great man's activities that has been almost wholly over* looked by students of the many-sided Washington. This concerns his numerous and extensive undertakings as an architect and builder —operations that in scope might have seemed t o afford a sufficient career for any ordinary citizen. Of course there Is no desire to create the impression that the nation's first president was professionally an "architect and builder" as w e interpret the term today. On the contrary at no period of his life did he devote his entire time to tbis form of activity nor did/be depend upon it as a means of livelihood. But circumstances seemed to combine t o compel Washington to assume responsibilities a s an amateur architect and builder, if we may thus qualify tbe term. On the one hand was the circumstance that h e w a s master "f an eight thousand-acre estate and there was always more or less s M AIRJfltW WJP» "To* ought tab* very oo*4 need* attention^; Thai ?.*>;. \*$- * • 3fe^ «1 m&> , > • , $£&# •*ii&-lh: isi W •^ *tt hoe* t y ^ f^v*y^;Bcw&» "*mtim 4mmv<ml #m* tor 001¾ inAaoia, poeojaoaja. an4 d*ick OOJJ* '«%•; % trtend'ola^aa teolra, cote not half so , ¾ «a yours, last wee* and in three days ho was de*d!» * -***l7 •twit* - . - ••' ^z' ; f, •>-: •Taot The doctor asir| my ^riewl. might has oulled throuith If he h&4n'€; worried ao muob.

On the other hand, George Washington, in. later life, as the leading official of a new republic •- and the found*n <ft••$#»«. ^capital, had thrust upon him innumerable4 questions or architectural policy and selection which, perforce, requisitioned all bis ability in this line. That Washington sbjouid have developed such ability as a practical aifid consulting architect is by to means strange when we take into account his early experience as a surveyor. This 6ccupa» Hon which be followed during much of his young manhood gave him splendid iudgment as to th|P^%r%#fi^«ttle more than one story m height. buildings that finally gave Mount Vernon the semblance of a wellordered village. General Washington even planned the walks which are a conspicuous feature of the landscape work at Mount Vernon. About live miles from Mount Vernon is Woodlawn, a charming Colonial mansion which atands to this day in an excellent state of preservation and is generally accounted, next to Mount Vernon, the most significant of all the buildings that bear the impress of Washington's Individuality. General Waah* ington built Woodlawn as a wedding gift for his favorite, Nelly Custis, the adopted daughter upon Tvhon> centered the affections of his later life. TBie main building at Woodlawn, which Is of pure Colonial design, Is forty by sixty feet in size. At Htfftfl such structures there are wings connected by ofiTvidor* with the main" structure and these residences was not by any means limited to country homes. There are la the eity^of Wash* ington several buildings which attest his talent in this direction with reference to dwellings in urban surroundings. Perhaps the most Interesting and certain* . ly 4he moat historic in thifl category Is "Octagon House," whleh is located only a few block* from the White House and is today one of the show pjpcee of tbe capital, having served in later, years as the permanent headquarters of the American institute ot Architects. The nation's first, chief magistrate laid off tbe ground in this vlcmfty and prepared the original plans for the mansion,- although, as in the caBe of two qf the mansions above mentioned, it wap left to others to carry out the plans thus formulated. Octagon House, wbich is of added interest because it was temporaruy^used as the Presidential Q*Ke the Cotatrai-y. Being anxious aa til bis prospects In one of the early attempts to enter parliament, Herbert Samuel consulted his agent, who said the chances were not rosy, because he was a "carpetbagger." Mr. Samuel thereupon promised to live In the division if ne were successful, and bills were Immediately posted that "if Herbert Samuel is returned next Tuesday he will come to life bere." -y'^. Some of tbe other .. side, however, posted one of these bilfr on a plgety'. Mr. Samuel did not wis the election. —London Telegraph.

Closely adjoining the site of the Boston ft Maine car shops is Blllerica, the surveyors discovered a gravestoBo nursing the spot where 100. years as* five persons, vietima of smallpox, wore surfed. The stone is still in good oonditloa. although moasy with ago." The foot stone as wall as the headstone is solid, giving evidence of careful work on the part of the ones who placed It there. Too grave was evidently chosen a century ago as a secluded spot, and when found trees*--«&4erbnuh and shrubbery nearly hid it from sight The words on this headstone are: Erected in memory of and to designate the place where Asa Orost, Jr., Levi Frost, Eleanor Fanner, Sarah Rodgman and Samuel Batohelder wore buried, who died of smallpox, August, 1811. At first the Boston & Maine considered getting the consent of the state to remove the stone and the dust of the bodies, but it has been decided to let the grave remain where It is. Bo these flvo persons will rest where they are and their bed of the last century will not be disturbed. No relative of the ones buried seem at an concerned about the grave and it ia doubtful If any descendants of them are living in Blllerica or Lowell at the present time.

Equally open to misconstruction are the following notice*: "All gloves in this window 50c per pair. These won't last ton* at the price." "Dine here once, and you'll never dine anywhere else;" and "A competent person wanted to undertake the sale of a new medicine that will prove highly lucrative to the undertaker." But perhaps the best of these ambiguous advertisements Is that of a Japanese laundry, which runs thus: "Contrary to our opposite company, we will most cleanly and carefully cheap prices as follows: Ladies, %% per 100; gentlemen, $1.50 per 100. After these one reads without a shock such notices as the following: Under a pair of hob-nailed boots-— "Unwearable, $3;" In the window of a email store in Portland—"New_ milk," and on a card immediately underneath —"our own make."

A physician of Montpelier, France, was in < the habit of employing a very ingenious artifice. When he came to a town where he was not known, he pretended to have lost his dog, and ordered the public crier to offer, with beat of dnim, a reward of 25 louis to whomsoever should bring it to him. The crier took care to mention all the titles and academic honors of the doctor, as well as his place of residence. He soon became the talk of the town. "Do you know," says, one, "that a famous physician has come here, a very clever fenow? Be must be very rich, for he offers K louis for finding his dog."

A proprietor of a second band store on Wells street told the following story yesterday: A neatly dressed young man rushed Into the store and demanded to see the boss. As the proprietor approach* ed, the visitor exclaimed: "Well, Hon't swear at me. I am no school ma'm. Say, have you a pistol?" "Weil," said the owner of the store. "For what purpose do you want the revolver?" "Don't feed me with such slang again," remarked the visitor. "It's my business to know what I need a pistol for. But, say mister, be a good friend of mine. You tell me what kind to get. You know, my mother-in-law i s six feet tall, and weighs about 260 pounds."—Milwaukee Journal.

The record shows impartial distribution of the blanket of chill. Damages and troubles were much the same everywhere in the state. In Flint, Muskegon, Bay City, Port Huron, Jackson, Grand Jtapids and other cities more waterpipes burst than all available plumbers can repair in a week —and these are the minor items. Flint ground is frozen to a depth of four feet and soon frost must reach and burst the city water mains—a calamity only avertible by speedy arrival of moderate temperatures. Other cities are in as perilous plight. Fuel shortage worries every town of consequence in Michigan to a greater or lesser degree. In some towns it is mounting near the edge of calamity to industry. In some places fuel supplies actually are at the vanishing point, making the cold winter of 1912 sure of its mark In history In Michigan.

The Injuns h tbem boys cooped up thar fer eight the ultimata destination of Una futgl* Uvea, Keith yet dare not venture on pressing forward during the night, thus possibly ioiing the trail and being compelled to retrace their steps, it was better to proceed slow aad sure. Besides, Judging from the condition of their own horses* the pursued would be compelled to halt somewhere to rest their stock also. Their trail even revealed the fact that they were traveling far lees rapidly than at first, although evidently making esjery effort to cover the greatest' possible distance before stopping. Just as the dusk shut in close about them they rode down into the valley of Shawnee Fork, and discovered signs of a recent camp at the edge of the stream, - Here, apparently, Judging from the -j camp-flre a*%es, %ad the trampled grass along the Fork, the party must have halted for several hours. By lighting matches Keith and Btlstoe discerned where some among them had laid down to sleep, and, through yarious^signs, decided they must have again departed some five or six hours, previous, one of their horse* limping as if lame. The tired pursuers went into camp at the same spot, but without venturing to light any fire, merely snatching a cold bite, aud dropping off to sleep with he«fdB pillowed upon their saddles. They were upon the trail again with the first dimness of the gray dawn, wading the waters of the Fork, and striking forth across the dull level of brown prairie and white alkali toward the Arkansas. They saw nothing all day moving In that wide vista about them, but rode steadily, scarcely exchanging a word* determined, grim, never swerving a yard from the fatal trail. The pursued were moving slowar, hampered, no doubt, by. their lame horse, but wens still Well in ad* vance. Moreover, the strain of the saddle was already beginning to tell severely on Walte, weakened somewhat by years, and the pursuers were compelled to halt oftener on his account The end of the second day found them approaching the broken land bordering the Arkansas valley, and Just before nightfall they picked up a lame horse, evidently discarded by the party ahead. ^ . (TO BE CONTINUED.) -as <!Mm3^.i\ MICHIGAN « S Ann Arbor,—Two bobsleds carrying )13 boasters collided on the Felch Street hill, and that there were not fatal results is regarded as re* markablt. Great credit must be giv< en Willie Mara, the lad steering the larger coaster, for avoiding a terrible accident As it was, not one of the $S escaped without a bruise or two, and several ware severely injured. Charles Shannon sustained a badly wrenched back. Mr. and Mrs. Herman Larmee were terribly bruised and cut. One young woman whose name was not learned waa badly bruised and cut about the legs. Charles BuchoU sustained a badly wrenched back, aad bis sister, Mies Hannah, waa cut about the head. A physician was called and dressed their wounds. Flint.—In a collision between a motor omnibus and a. street car on North Saginaw street, the omnibus, which was filled with worklngmen on their way to the north end factories, was struck broadside and turned over. Charles Zimmerman suffered a scalp wound and sprained back and was otherwise cut and bruised. Q. M. Tumm, another passenger on the gmnlbus, was painfully cut about the face and hands, while two other passengers were unconscious for a short time. It is feared that Zimmerman's skull may be fractured. The accident was caused by the driver of the omnibus attempting to cross the track in front the moving street car. Owosso.—In compliance with her dying request, Mrs. Fred Sanderhoff was burled wearing the stockings that she wore 54 years ago when married in Germany. Mrs. Sanderhoff's life was notable for its almost ideal happiness. Familiar on the streets of Owosso during the last few years were the aged husband and wife, walking hand In hand as they had done when sweethearts, and ever since. To Mrs. Sanderboff, who was eighty-four years old, her husband WAS always her sweetheart. * Adrian.—According to advices received by Prosecuting Attorney Mlohener, the four Marquette cC?- victs, Joe Meyer, Frank Logan, Tom Monroe and George McDonnell, sent up from Lenawee for blowing the People's bank of Brit ton, December 23, 1910, will attempt to gain their freedom by contesting the constitutionality of the "nitre-glycerine" statute under which they were convicted.

I also want to thank the "Ladies Aid," for their thought fulness in patting a heater in the parsonage. The original idea -of the "Ladies Aid," was that it was a kind of help, or an assistance to gan/sed at the^aaie of Manning Ha-jtb© church, bat the name, "Ladies neighbors, or W0»^N^filjjtlJ, « B 4 make your family i i ^ ^ f M l ^ f j ^ d hermits?

Wouldn't you rather pay a little more for a farm, or a residence in a good neighborhood than for one having no neighborhood? Tee—and yes again, we know you would. Sometimes it is a little inconvenient to have neighbors* and you feel that these very same-bothers are the added price you pajj in order to have the greater benefits accruing from having neighbors. **How would all you townspeople and you farmere like to get along without our neighborly little town of Pinckney? Not one of you—then why net quit this penny saving business '-Dd support more strongly the men who keep up the town which adds value to your farm and .property. Just figure that the pec ny you might save, if any* is the extra which you ought to pay your neighbor for what he is doing in keeping up the- town for as the town improves, so do your land values and your pleasures. The extra that you pay comes back to you in a greater ratio than by direct saving. Cutout the mail order, be a neighbor and pull al together for a bigger, better and more sociable town and neighborhood. 5* %.••• 7:aor;MeSht»pp i- ~rV w i** - • - ' DR« G. G.

' # fcOSTUME WITH SOCIAL STAMP M08T ALLURING. i**&. eveU Described at at Once a Compliment »<id a Challenge—Many Styles From Which to Choose , * Most Becoming. / Without a doubt, it la the costume with the social stamp which is the Most seductive to feminine eyes nowadays. The street suit of chic sort ^ ^undisputed allurements, hut the gowif of mora elegant description, .which tells of\ the receptions, high teas vlsHing, etc., bears with It something far more entrancing. It Is ele- «an£ to begin with, and, besides, fctata of one's Interest in and appreciation of friends. It is at once a rompHmetit and a- challenge. One veeks for becomingness above all <% -,;A&#.<£ •i # : ! mm ' > • * &%?. waisted coats short-bodices with Innumerable sorts of peplum tails, and the one-piece gown m air its ramifications are other favored models. Few long skirts appear for day wear, although if the reception la to be followed by a "dansant," the hostess, or the young matron who helps her re* ceive, may wear a unique "tail"—the skirt running out into a sharp point behind, or else bunched together with a buckle or rosette. How funny the styles of the day will appear a decade hence, when history has shelved them, with things dead and gone. In the Interim there is no abatement In the love of foolishness—tight skirts, mammoth handbags, hats which look like Indian headdresses, bushel baskets, what not. And as yet the foolishness is aH lovely. In the illustration the one-piece effect is given here and a flat trimming used on both waist and skirt. The style Is charming for a fancy wool, veiling, cloth, or marquisette, andhere quite an inexpensive novelty cloth in black and white is used. The trimming is black velvet, the buttons being covered with the gown goods. Black and white, all black, black with color! Who can foresee the banishment of black for use in color, the time when it will be regarded as passee, unbecoming, undesirable? Nobody can, for the good "reason that black is forever rewarding to becomingness, forever smart, distinguished, rare; and so, although season by season new colors come and go, the black dress In all Us phases remains.

If you hare, you were doubtless enraged and blamed the cook. She probably told you that the salad just came from the refrigerator, and if she is truthful she left you without argument Refrigerating is about the - only method of keeping saalds cold that most women know. They think if the ingredients are put in a dish on the Ice everything has been done. Here is how one woman, noted for her delicious salads, keeps them icy cold. The fruit, meat or other ingredients are made ready early In the morning of the day they are to lje used, then wrapped in an old napkin or clean muslin and laid flat on the tee; there they stay until the last possible minute for mixing. When ready for use they are taken out and mixed by layers with the mayonnaise in a bowl that Is chilled by standing in a larger bowl of ice. The mayonnaise is kept in the refrigerator until needed, and the lettuce is washed as soon as bought, then dried and wrapped in a cloth and put flat an the ice until used. WMCOUD DEDO" . quicker and neater than when done Is" the distinguished thing butTirwoutd^*.^1*^ % take a book to tell of all the materials used, all the styles of the "Inkand- snow gown," all the hundred and one tricks employed to <,soften and vary the bodice. But one thing is everywhere observable—the black and white scheme must be definite sharp black, sfcf»rp .^^;to and'never little blurring mixtures. You literally see the gown coming like a circus horse—that is, if it is the latest French notion in wool or velveteen. With the black and white gown many pure white hats and fur sets are worn, or else the hat will be black with a white fancy feathter, while the charming markings of pointed fox will AlHROUND CHOUSE If you get too much salt into your tomato soup, add a bit of brown sugar. It seems to- make salty soup taste all right. But better still is to add a few slices of raw potato. To mend linen tablecloths remove the presser-foot from your machine. Insert the place to be darned under it and stitch back and forth. It is much give the black and white note tbHhe jfrom porcelain basins and bath tubs furs. 1 1 One-Piece Style Adapted to Many Ma* terlals and Pocketbook*. $ ; • : • -and for colors- which wHH&i with drawing rooms. As to styles, how many there are to choose from. The close slip covered with a Greek shirt, in some finer con- •*" > trastlng material, is much admired for young married women who give smart receptions, and to whom the classic stamp is becoming. Fine wools ondl velvet textures made up with high White Blouses Revived. It seems essential to wear some touch of black at the neck of a white blouse these days, and the fashion will be followed out in America without doubt. More thin white blouses are sold than for the last four years, because they have returned to favor with morning suits, provided they are quite plain and very sheer. The only trimming allowed is a narrow band of Irish Insertion down the front and at the collar and on edge of Irish Picot on the frills over the hand and down the front. Probably everybody knows that boiled ham and corned beef have a nicer flavor if left to cool in the liquor in which they are cooked, but a lot of people don't follow the practice, possible because they dislike the large greasy kettle to wash late in the day. To take the smell of fish from hands, wash them in water which contains a few drops of ammonia. To take the odor of onions from dishes, after washing them, put them on the stove a few seconds to be heated thoroughly. When cool again the odor will be gone. Kerosene or gasolene applied with a cloth will remove all grease marks Rinsei well with hot water. To aSsiston' bleaching hjory after It has been wapied,-expose it to the sun. When a qisagreeabie^ odor penetrates the house overcome ifby sprinkling dried lemon peels on the fire. Coal oil will soften the old paint brushes used lact'year. Place them in a can of the oil and wash them well in warm soap- suds.

Hundreds of them are being made for gifts, but the newest idea is the bag of heavy Chinese mandarin embroidery, the top of which is run through a jade bracelet and the sides of which are trimmed with those funny, little Chinese ornaments in green wood and beads that are put on the lanterns andean be bought at the Oriental shops. < * * » » ^ » ^ | ^ y > » ^ i M W » M 000000000000>000t00m00< ** * * M ^ ^ ^ ^ W • 1 , . m0000*0*000i0000im000>00000>000000)00m0m 0 04 .-•W Ett ^ y t t S H E -3F--THE- DAINTIEST Woman of Fashion Insists on the Lightest Fabric* tod Most Ex- ' -.

From the standpoint of utility, ex* cept in so far as decoroUveneas Is utility, not much can be said for the average cat these days. The cat enjoy* Us privileges without greatly con* corning itself with the responsibilities. And in point of fact, its services in Most bouses would be superfluous. The mousetrap now does for most households what the cat formerly did. Sat la the cat particularly distinguished by the affection for its master which Is ao conspicuous in the dog, Its sole domestic rival for the warm spot under the kitchen stove. If you will note the cat carefully, you erUl observe that it usually wants something of you when it comes around. None of its calls are courtesy calls. The arched back and the "mew-mew" are eloquent of its desires. If it does not receive these marks of attention and fails to find anything else that Interests it, say. a nice warm spot in your lap to take a dose on, the cat moves majestically and Indifferently away. Tour personality has no particular charm for i t tt admires the radiator more than it does you, These characteristic symp* toms of self-centeredness and grave detachment are reinforced by the eyes of the cat. A cat's eyes look at you, tat they seem to be looking beyond you, They are like the eyes of the caged lion, which always seem to be seeing the distant desert that It loves sad that is calling to it by night and slay. ALBION COMMON COUNCIL EXONERATES CITY TREA8UREH FOR LOSS OP FUNDS IN BANK FAILURE. ALL MICHIGAN IS PRODUCTIVE SAYS JOHN L. GIBSON. 8aI© of Sweet Cider Is Not Barred in "Dry" Counties It Opinion of Attorney General Franz C. Kuhn. From year to year there have come reports of the Increase of deer in Gonneedcut which western people hsve found It difficult to believe. Last year there were complaints that the protected animals were destroying farmers' crops. This year comes the story that &e Connecticut game wardens have given warning that motormen on interurban electric cars must exercise the utmost care not to run down deer which happen to; get upon the track, or they will be made to Incur the full penalty of the law for Wiling deer out of season. It is said that a considerable number of deer hsve been killed in this way, especially at night, when they were attracted by the headlight*. Deer stalking with an electrio oar la certainly a modern method of acquiring venison; but they were always an ingenious folk in the state of the wooden, nutmeg. - A bonfire was held by the Postofflce Department of over 170,000 Christmas postal cards, barred because of their tinsel decoration, notification having been made that these cards are unmailable on account of danger to the clerka in handling. The number sent in spite of the warning shows that men and women are but children of a larger growth, who keep on doing things apparently because they have been told not to do them. Petition Frees Albion Treasurer, The Albion common council has unanimously voted to exonerate City Treasurer W. J. Morse from aH responsibility for the loss of city funds, to the amount of $7,056,34, which were in the Albion Natinal bank at the time of its failure, Jan. 2, and the loss will fall upon the taxpayers. A petition, signed by taxpayers representing more than half of the total city tax roll was presented, asking that Morse be absolved from blame. Public sentiment was almost unanimously In favor of the city taking the blame for the loss, as the council, contrary to the state law, had not designated the depository, the treasurer, following the custom of splitting up the money In the three banks. Had the council not taken the action they did, Morse, who is in the clothing business, would have failed. The payment of the stockholders' assessments is going on at present. Very few are paying the sum set against their names in one amount, but most of them are taking advantage of the fear months' time allowed by the government. ENLARGE STiTE CAPITOL Many Lawyers Join in Movement for Erection of New Wing. because the state supreme court and hundreds of lawyers are forced to work In inadequate quarters at Lansing and because legal business Is thus greatly handicapped, bar associations throughout the state are uniting In an effort to have the next legislature provide for enlarging the^ state capitol. The Michigan State Bar association, the Detroit, Grand Rapids, Kalama. /.oo, Marquette, Branch, Calhoun and Genesee associations have ': adopted resolutions calling for this action on the part of the next legislature and pledging the efforts of their members towards this. Jt is expected that every city and county bar association in the state will follow the example set. GOVERNMENT INSTRUCTS COMMANDER TO RMSH SOLDIERS TO TEXAS BORDER 4FJBIT.

"Education in better methods of farming and fruit growing is what is needed in this state," declared John U Gibson, secretary of the Western Michigan Development bureau at the luncheon of the Board of Commerce in the Tuller hotel, Detroit. He said that there is hardly an acre of land in Michigan which cannot be made productive. "We have the land, the climate and all other advantages, and there is no reason why this state should not be a banner one. We have the advantage because while we can raise the choicest applea and other fruit here, in the western states they have to raise the finest to make It pay." Sweet Cider la Not Barred. In response to a request of Prose. cuting^Attorney W. Glenn Cowell, of Coldwater, Attorney General Franz C. Kuhn has rendered an opinion that sweet or unferraented cider may be lawfully manufactured and sold in thofle counties where the local option law ha* been adopted. Since the decision in the case of the People vs. Eberle, in which the supreme court held that hard cider cannot be sold, or given away in any quantity, except as part of a host's hospitality, throughout the state there have been many who have questioned the right of anyone to even make cider for vinegar in a dry county.

Albert Holter, of Ashland, it is charged, entered a department store in Ontonagon at 1:30 o'clock in the morning, robbed the till, permitted the place to catch fire from dropped matches; sounded the alarm of fire; worked as a volnuteer fireman to extinguish the blaze and was arrested later as he was taking a train for > .

State lands in Michigan are going to cost more in the future. Dollar lands are to be things of the past. These are among the various, things agreed on at the meeting of the public domain commission held in Lansing. Secretary Carton wants to see all state lands placed at a value of at least $8 an acre. Several members thought such a change would not be Jnst the thing to do at present. Eventually, however, the state lands wltt be raised to that figure. As the result of a row that has been brewing for months, Deputy Postmaster William McCracken, of St. Joseph, has been dismissed from the postal service. An order to this effect was issued by the department at Washington 60 days ago. The order was based on the ground that the office was supplied with too much help and that the postmaster had the right to recommend any employe's dismissal. Although the latter was under civil service he had. no trial the first assistant postmaster general merely removing him from office.

Pasquale Orozoco, idol of the peons of Chihuahua, commander-in-chief of ruralea in the state, reached Juarez on a special train, accompanied by his staff, and it is believed the end of the mutiny is in sight, Orozoco was greeted by a chorus of "vivas" that fairly shook the half destroyed looted buildings, and the mutineers wanted to embrace him. Orozoco said he came to restore peace, not to fight, and immediately went into conference with the chosen leaders of the mutineers. The leaders declare they are for Orozoco, first, last, and forever. Outsiders consider that announcement will soon be made that the mutineers have been forgiven and have returned to the standard of Madero, i Col. Steever received his orders from the secretary of war instructing him to "notify authorities^ in Ju*M?e* to prevent firing into United States territory."

It wouW etArtiefc'dairyman of 40 yeera ijjftf totfook at acme of the records eatahlianed recently by- leading dairy breeds in. America. Then a cow that would produce 27,482 pounds milk in a year would have been considered as prosperous as the old world looked upon Columbus' idea of the earth being round. However, Colantha 4th Johanna, the famous Hobrtein cow, produced that amount of nHlkiunder careful supervision. It tested 3,64 per cent butter fat, being a total of 998 pounds butter fat for the year. Another Holsteta, Lunde Korndyke, was a.3close : second, with 26,192 pounds milk to her credit for a year, wWch tested S.88 per cent, or a total of 872 pounds butter fat. However, ail good cows are not Hotetein*. Readers will recall the remarkable record of the Guernsey cqiw, Dolly Dimple. She produced 18,808 pounds milk in a year which, tested out 878 pounds fat. Jersey' breeders have something to brag about. Jacobs Irene produced 17,358 pounds milk in a year, which yielded 952 pounds butter fat. Another Jersey cow, Olga 4th*s Pride, gave 16,275 pounds milk, producing 671 pounds butter fat in a year. A third Jersey, Sophie 19th, while giving only 14,373 pounds milk, made 854 pounds butter fat. There are a half dozen or more well-known. Jersey cows that have exceeded the 800-pound mark for butter fat in 365 days. When the average farmer gets a cow that WiH produce 300 pounds butter fat he thinks he has something pretty good. Then again, Ayrshires are not to be ignored. Netherhall Brownie 9th, an A successful dairyman recently out lined to us 'his method of watering the cows fn the barn, Bays the Ohio Farmer. He objected to using the long, continuous feed trough for watering, his objections being that there will be in the process considerable evaporation into the atmosphere of the barn. Damp air in the barn "means that it will be chilly. The evapo r a t i o n from the gutters and radiation from the cows saturate the air more than it should be witSout any further addition from the trough. To overcome that objection and yet provide a means of waterlog in the stall he had rigged a trough on'low wheels. This movable tank was so constructed that it would run' nfcely above the continuous feed trough. In that Way the cows can be watered in a very short while without being loosened from their stalls. The tank was made long enough so that three cows could drink at a time. A man may be sweeping the feedway at the same time or doing other work whib» moving this tank cart from time to time. Jersey Heifer. Ayrshire cow, has a record of 18,110 pounds milk which produced 820 pounds butter fat. Other breeds like Brown Swiss and the dairy strain of Shorthorn have interesting records back of them. When a dairyman Rets out of sorts with the world and thinks little progress is being made'let him contemplate some of these facts and note the really remarkable strides dairy cattle breeding has experienced the past half dozen years. < The woman who "keep* boose" has eaeagVte do when she is in good, sound healfb, be*if T#B* iarwsak, tired all the time/ and angering fsom mom to night with en-aching back, house-work becomes a heavy burden.

Having stopped at a way station, the bridegroom was approached by the station agent, who asked: "Are you going to take the next train?" "It's none of your business," retorted the bridegroom, indignantly, as he guided the bride up the platform, where they condoled with each other over the impertinence of some of the natives. Onward came the train, its vapor curling from afar. It was the last to their destination that day—an express. Nearer and nearer it came at full speed; then in a moment it whizzed past and was gone, "Why in thunder didn't that train stop!" yelled the bridegroom. "Cos -you said 'twarn't none of my bizness. I has to signal if that train's to stop." A DRAW. Cleaning the Separator.

Can you tell me that, Christie ?" She lifted her eyes to his face, her lips psrted. "I can answer anything you ask." "And you do not care for them?" "No." 1 He drew his breath sharply, bis round face rosy. "Then you have got to listen to me, for I'm deadly in earnest I'm an old, rough, bald-headed fool that don't know much about women—I never thought before I'd "ever want to—but you can bet on one thing, I'm square. Anybody In this town will tell you I'm Bquare. They'll tell you that whatever I says goes. I've never run around much with women; somehow 1 never exactly liked the kind I've cpnie up against, and maybe they didn't feel any particular interest in me. I didn't cut much shine as a ladles' man, but, I reckon now, it's only because the light one hadn't happened along. She 1B here now, though, all right, and I knew it the very first time I set eyes on her. Oh, you roped and tied me all right the firs£ throw. Maybe I did get you apd that half-sister mixed up a bit, but just the same you were the one I really wanted. Hope's all right; she's a mighty fine girl, but do you Imagine he ever got her to go with him? She isn't that sort of a girl." She shook her head, shivering a little. "He mu&t have mistaken her tor me—perhaps has not even yet discovered his mistake. But what It all means, or how be gained her consent to go with him, I cannot conceive." She Btood with hands clasped, staring out of the window. "There is a little light showing already," she exclaimed, pointing. "See. yonder. Oh, I trust they will find her alive, and unhurt. That man, I believe, is. ^capable of any crime. But couldn't you be of some help? Why should j'ou remain here with me? 1 am In no danger." "You really wish me to go, Christie?" "Not that way—nqt that "way," and she turned impulsively, with hands outstretched. "Of course I want you here with me, but I want you to help bring Hope back." He drew her to him, supremely happy now, every feeling of embarrassment lost in complete certainty of possession. "And I will," he said solemnly, "Wherever they may have gone I shall follow. I am going now, dear, and when I come back you'll be glad to see me?" "Shall I?" her eyes uplifted to his own, and_ swimming in tears. "I will be the happiest girl in all the world, 1 reckon. Oh, what a night this has been! What a wonderful night! It has given me a name, a mothdf, and the man I love." He kissed her, not in passion, but in simple tenderness, and as he turned away she sank upon her knees at the window, with bead bowed upon the sill. At the door he paused and looked back, and she turned, and smiled at him. Then he went out, and she _knelt there silently, gazing forth Into the dawn, her .eyes blurred with tears—facing a new day, and a new life. (TO B B CONTINUED.) Wild 8trawberrtes. Strawberries bare Improved very much In flavor since the fifteenth century Until then the only strawberries eaten were wild strawberries Of a kind which would never find a market nowadays. By 148 , however, tfcsy were beginning to be cultivated, for Hollnahed records under that date a particularly fine crop rrown by the Bishop of Ely in the grounds of bis palace, now covered by Hatton Oarden. He quotes the Duke of Gloucester aa saying to the Bishop, "My lord, you bave very good strawberries in your' garden in Hoi born. I require you to let us have a mesa of them." This speech was copied almost verbatim by Shakespeare in -Richard HI." Still. even the Bishop's fruit would not appeal much to modern connoisseurs, for tbe garden strawberries at that period were only transplanted wild lings, the plants being sold at about 4d. a bushel.—London Chronicle. • # * • * ' 'W ' '*^*~afcp interested me," admitted the, gJlv-besltaticgly, her eyes darkening, with sudden anger.

Richmond.—A jinx, or hoodoc seems to bave taken possession ol the Richmond Congregational church. Last April owing to disaffection among the members, the pastor, Rev. W. W. Oadd, who had served the church fox nearly eight years, resigned in the hope that ti.e two factions would get together and mend the breach, which from a mere crack, bad become a chasm, as is the way In church differences. Except for vacation supplies, the pulpit has not been filled since. In November the members called Rev. 0. H. Bachelor of New York, but he has been unable to come, owing to illness of his wife. Meanwhile the members are becoming discouraged and indifferent. OWOBBO.—Raiding a residence in a respectable quarter of the city that was fast becoming notorious, the sheriff's force found 12 persons assembled and confiscated a large quantity of beer and whisky In jugs and bottles. Mrs. Maud Perry, who resides in the place; Amon (Kid) Wheeler, known locally as a prizefighter, and Sam Rourke, are In jail awaiting examination February 13. Warrants have been out several weeks for the Perry woman's husband, Wil* riiam Perry, and for Wheeler's wife, who are charged with violation df the local option law, but the police have been unable to locate them. Ludington—John I. GibBOu, secretary of the western Michigan development bureau, who has just concluded a campaign through Indiana, will sail for Ireland March 15. Mr. Gibson will deliver there his lecture showing the advantages of western Michigan. More than a thousand settlers have been added to this section during the last year through the efforts of the bureau, which had its inception here three years ago at a board of trade banquet. Algonac.—Maple Leaf lodge, No. 405, I. 0. 0. F., of this place has made elaborate arrangements for a fair and carnival to be held all of next week. Raffles, "spinning Jennies," fortune tellers and various other specialties, besides sales of various character from handsomely decorated booths, presided over by pretty girls, will keep things humming. Carnival features in the way of entertainment will be added attractions. The big prize of the Affair is an automobile. Ionia.—The supremo court has iecided that Lyons township, in Ionia county, must accept a poor farm, which was bequeathed to them by the late John Dougherty, a resident ot tuat township until his death a little aver one year ago. Dougherty was a wealthy farmer. He left a large estate valued at nearly 920,000. In his will he bequeathed his homestead valued it $10,000 to the township, to be used In caring for the needy. Many voters, It is alleged, urged the other heirs to Bght the donation on the ground that It would always be a source of trouble and expense to the taxpayers. Battle Creek,—For the first time In America radium was used here Tor the treatment of a paralytic. G. C. Clark of Houston, Tex., took the first emanation bath ever given on United States soil, with Olaf Anderson, a Swedish nurse, at the helm and Dr. J. H. Kellogg in command. The Austrian government recently made it possible for Doctor Kellogg, then its guest, to obtain a small quantity of the precious mineral. So small is the world's supply of radium that there are only six Institutions in the world able to give the treatment, two in Vienna, two in Berlin, one at Joachimitahl, Bohemia, where radium was discovered, and the one in Battle Creek. Kalamazoo.—Through a sale completed the old Kalamazoo college building, erected more than a half century ago and for years the largest educational institution in Michigan, excepting tbe University of Michigan, will be torn down during the next few weeks and the land it occupies will be platted into building lots. It Is said $25,600 was paid for the building and block of land. The funds secured from the sale of the building and lot will be used In the erection of a new gymnasium for the college. The structure was abandoned about ten years ago for college purposes and since that time has. stood idle. Hillsdale.—Deputy United States Marshal Lyon of Detroit was hero to arrest M. L. Hsgerman of Montgomery on the charge of fraudulently using the ntaits. He had expected to take Hagerman before Commissioner Clark at Battle Creek, but found Hagerman sick in bed.

A simple and practical way td prevent drafts entering under a door that has, through shrinkage, a wide crack under it, is to fold three thicknesses of paper together just the width of the door and two lncnes deep and cover it with serge or cloth as near the color of the door as possible. Sew to this three amall brass rings, one a quarter of an inch from each end and one in the middle. Fasten into the bottom of the door three small screw-hooks and hang the rings to them. You will have a perfect protection from cold air coming under the door and one that Is easily removed and kept dusted. Reward of fctrlt. "Go on, sab!

"Evil Eye" Based e * P$e?t> Most people have heard of the' "Evil Bye/' and now we are informed by Charles L. Smith, a noted New York refractionist, that the superstition arose because everyone, without knowing it, has one eye that is different in power and activity from the other. He designates it the "dominant e y e / ' and according to whether it is ,the left or the right children will grow up lefthanded or right-handed. It is sheer cruelty, and may entail life-long misery, to force a child to become ambidextrous. Such a bourse may result in wrecking the nervous Bystem, and can only be cured by a reversal of the process so that the "dominant eye" may reg«in natural afM undisputed sway. Men who are ambidextrous had better keep a strict guard over their actions lest they should be credited with the "evil eye." * * * * j From New Englai Prove that Lydia E.

United States Treasurer McClung has recommended in his annual report that congress provide additional facilities for exchanging old and defaced United States paper currency for new. Asserting that there is a widespread Interest which advocates a cleaner and more sanitary currency, he says that the sentiment is a laudable one and should be attainable because the expense is but a trifle compared with the beneficial results. It has been demonstrated that bacteria attach themselves readily to paper money, and there is no doubt that disease is thus disseminated. Mr, McClung's crusade for a clean currency ought to find prompt and sympathetic response. M a n y C b l l d r e n A r e N l e k l y .

The sheriff asmmea -control—clear headed, and accustomed to that sort of thing—calling in Hickock and his deputies to assist; aad fairly combing the town from one end to the other.

"Miss Waite had a small revolver. She must have shot the fellow. But why did they leave the body here to be discovered?" The sheriff arose to his feet, prowling about in the brightening glow of the dawn: "They were in a hurry (o get away, and knew he wouldn't be found before morning.

Dr. Fairbain had originally Joined the searching party, fully as eager as Keith himself to run down the renegade Hawley, but after an hour of resultless effort, his entire thought shifted to the woman they had left alone at the hotel. He could not, as yet, fally grasp the situation, but he re- Jpsined loyal to the one overpowering .Jruth that he loved Christie Maclaire. Fairbain's net'jre was rough, original, yet loyal to the core. He had lived all his life long in army camps, and upon the frontier, and his code of honor v/as extremely simple. It never once occurred to him that Christie's profession was not of the highest, or that her life~nnd—associations in any way unfitted her for the future. To his mind she was the one and only woman. His last memory of her, at. the little party of men filed out of that room, haunted him until he finally dropped out of the search and drifted back toward the hotel. It was a late hour, yet It was hardly likely the woman had retired. Her excitement, her interest in the pursuit, would surely prevent that; moreover, he was certain he saw a light still burning in her room, ns he looked up from the black street below. Nevertheless he hesitated, uncertain of his reception'. Bluff, emphatic, never afraid to face a man In his life, his heart now beat, fiercely as he endeavored to muster the necessary ^courage. -Far down the dark street some roysterer fired ii shot, and sudden fear lest he might be sought alter professionally sent the doctor hurriedly within, and up the stairs. He stood. just outside her door, quaking like a child, the perspiration beading his forehead, but a light streamed through the transom, and he *ould plainly hear movements within.—A-tlast, in a sudden spasm of courage, he knocked softly. Kvon In that noisy spot she heard instantly, opening the door without hesitation, and standing fully dressed within. She was no longer a discouraged, sobbing girl, but an amused, intent woman, into whose pathetic, lonely life there had .cc-me. a new hope. She appeared younger, fairer, with the light shimmering in her hair and her eyes smiling welcome'. "Oh, Doctor," and her hands were thruat out towards him. "I am glad you have come. Somehow, I thougbt you would, and I have wanted so to talk to some one—to you." "To me! Do you really mean that. Miss Christie?" "Yes, I really mean that, you great bear of a man," and the girl laughed lightly, dragging him into the room and closing the door. "Why, who else could I expect to come to-night? You Were the only one really good to me. Ypu—you acted as if you believed in 0 * all the time—" :•-»•• (TO B E CONTINUED.) He trail.

Then his face broke out all over in red bumps and it kept spreading "uhTTT~tt~wa« hands and arms, t bought several boxes of ointment, gave him blood medicine, and had two doctors to treat him, but he got worse all the time. He had It about six months when a friend told me about Cuticura. I tent and got a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, a cake of Cuticura Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment In three days after using them he began to Improve. He began to take long naps and to stop scratching his head. After taking two boU4ea-of ReBfrfventv-^weboxes of Ointment and three cakes of Soap he was sound and well, and never had any breaking out of any kind. His hair came out in little curia all over his head. I don't think anything else would have cured him except Cuticura. "I have bought Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Soap several times since to use for cuts and sores and have never known them to fail to cure what I put them on. Cuticura Soap is tbe best that I have ever used for toilet purposes." (Signed) Mrs. F. E. Harmon, R. P. D. 2, Atoka, Tenn., Sept. 20, 1910. Although Cuticura Soap and Ointment are sold everywhere, a sample of each, with 32-page book, will be mailed free on application to "Cuticura," Dept L, Boston.

I T S WOOD VS. ArNSWORTH Sea Service Had Its Trouble Over Medical Commanders—Surprising Prevalence of Opinion That Training Isn't Needed for Military Men. By GEORGE CLINTON. Washington.—There is friction in the war department because of differences of opinion between the two ranking officers of the army, Major Generals Leonard Wood and Fred C. Aiusworth. one the chief-of-stafl and the other adjutant general of tho service. Both of these men started out in life as doctors, and the trouble Is spoken of as a case "when doctors disagree." In this instance congress must decide, for the present difficulty arises from contrary views taken by the soldier doctors of a bill introduced by Representative Hay of Virginia making changes In the army system. The navy is now laughing at the army, because the navy itself had a row of somewhat similar nature, although in the case of the sea service there was a doctor on only one side of It. The trouble in the navy department was over the decision to allow a medical officer to take command of a Bhlp. Of course be won't attempt to navigate the ship, but he will be captain supreme in everything. A medical officer today, commands, under the president, the army of the United States. The army and navy are sister services. Together they are having visited upon them in a way the layman dictation. Think Training Not Needed. No civilian president, save Abraham Lincoln, perhaps, ever has thoroughly understood the necessity of training for army men and navy-men. There is apparently an impression that cannot be erased from the civilian mind thnt the profession of arms is the only profession for which no education is necessary. Naval officers and army officers In Washington today say that they constantly meet people who believe that any man of average Intelligence, good voice and sufueled physical strength can take command of an army or a fleet and by a sbrt of intuition lead them Into battle as well as any general or admiral of tho service. This, of course, is putting It to the limit of exaggeration, but the main truth holds, and army experience and navy experience show It, that the ordinary civilian, whether he be president of the United States or president gLa_s,ockmaklpg-4actory. believes that the military man IB born, not made, and that military education and experience, while possibly helpful, are not among the necessaries. The decision of the authorities to place the medical officer in command of a ship of the navy was parallel to the action of President McKinley in appointing a polltlciany^Wno^ djdtrHknow the right flank Hrcm thTSeft flank of his regiment, to command a body of men who within two months might be called upon to go on the field In the face of the enemy, there probably, though individually as bruve as Ney, to meet with defeat because of the ignorance of their commanding |J^Qj*?,«urst. .jjBft-*M|Ufr>r. 4&tmK~1t**-*-j&ti9 next >.to "officer.

In tha Senate Storehouse. Every year Col. D. M. (Ransdell, the sergeant-at-arms of the United States senate, is compelled by law to send to the vice-president of the United States, who is the presiding officer of the senate, a statement of the property belonging to the government which remains In his possession. The senate orders this statement to be printed for distribution on request so that, If the country wishes, It may learn what property it owns and what it fives to the senators for their use during the hours of legislating. After Colonel Ransdell has enumerated the chairs and the tables In tha various committee rooms and tha pictures on the walls and tha earpe^a-oii the floors, he tells the vlc$prg*ldent that In the store bouse of the ««nate< among other things are theso articles: One lemon squeeser < large), one pouad of snuff, one bottle of vaseline, one waah bowl, one tW box., eight bottles cockroach paste, one polar, one bottle of tonic, forty-eight bottles of cologne, thirty cakes of violet soap, twenty-four cakes of white rose soap, threa nail brushes, seventy-eight cuspldori and sixty-five fuherai; refalias. 5a»^pda»t*,*> Adams. ams, fives on Massachusetts avtnu< In a house formerly occupied L> Heart &rrs.

They say that mpro people are interested In the millionaire's block of gold than are interested In John Quincy Adams' two Inches of bronze. Adams, however, will be "alive" some centuries after this millionaire is torgotten. Latest Row in the House. Members of the house seemingly were somewhat ashamed of the outbreak of Representative Ben Johnson of Kentucky, chairman of the house committee on the District of Columbia, who the other day invited Representative Martin B. Madden of Chicago outside "to h»ve it out." Johnson later apologized handsomely. Threats of personal encounters In the house are of much more frequent occurence than they are in the senate. Sometimes members actually reach the mixing point, but generally their colleagues interfere before blows are struck. The last near encounter was one between Henry D. Clayton of Alabama. and Represenentative James R. Mann of Chicago, the bouse Republican leader. Mr. Mann was entirely willing to go outside with the man who challenged him, and there to settle the matter, but there was Interference and the temper of the thermometer on both sides went down rapidly. Fordney Versus Byrd. When the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill, was under discussion In the house, Representative Joseph W. Fordne/"*bf Michigan, who is the chiefest standpatter of them all, resented with a good deal of bitterness certain assertions which were made by Representative Adam Byrd of Mississippi. Mr. Byrd has Indian blood in bis veins and it may he that the admixture was in part responsible for his readiness to go on the warpath. ~ Pordney's direct word- was "You don't know what you are talking about," and at this the Mississlpian started down the aisle from his seat to pass around in front of the speaker's desk to reach Fordney. He did not walk; he ran, and in running he ehed his coat, a fact which made harder the attempts of his colleagues to stop him for their fingers slipped from his shirt sleeves easily while ho was rushing for his prey. Fordney stood absolutely immovable, but everybody knew he was ready. The two men were apparently physical equals, but Fordney in his early life had been a lumber jack and he was in trim that day us he is in trim i Bloomingdale. today.

FITTING CORSET TO FIGURE ^ * - V One of the 8ecrete of 8ueeess in Dress, According to Expert Who Should Know. This is the season of the year when we are plunged Into a very debauch of clothes.

Glazier, Michigan's ex-state treasurer, who was sentenced to from 10 to 15 years for misappropriating state funds the people had intrusted to him as treasurer. Glazier has served but two years, lacking ten days, of bis term. He leaves Jackson penitentiary on a parole. This was granted by Gov. OBborn following the recommendation of two physicians and Judge Howard Wiest, of Lansing, who imposed sentence on Glazier, that the prisoner would die unless given his freedom. He is now in the prison hospital being treated for diabetes. For several months letters and postal cards have been pouring into the executive office urging Gov. Osborn to exercise the prerogative of his office and release Glazier. Signatures to these were secured by the prisoner's family. Some politicians also have interceded in behalf of the- former state official. For several months efforts have been made to secure the recommendation of Judge Weist that Glazier be given a parole, but the jurist who imposed sentence was firm in the belief that the convicted state official should complete bis term behind the grim walls of Jackson prison. Recently, however, he was induced to visit the prison to see the prisoner, and the condition of Glazier's health, aB stated by physicians, induced him, it is said, to concur in the recommendation of the two physicians. Ever since her husband was sentenced, the devoted wife of the ex-state treasurer has worked untiringly to secure executive clemency, Through her efforts thousands of letters have been malted to the executive office and she has paid numerous visits to the gbvernor in an effort to secure favorable action. Senator Charles B. Townsend has volunteered to act as Glazier's first friend. SIEVE FOR HIVE ENTRANCES _ J mi • r JWmple Device May Be Made of Piece of Zinc Excluder, Strips of Wood and Cardboard.

When the bees are shaken on a sheet in front of the hive they must enter through the sieve, and the queen will be secured. No sharp lookout has to be kept; in fact, none at all, for whether one examines the sieve in 15 or 20 minutes, which is the usual time for them to go in, or five hours, later, as I did with the last hive, the queen is sure to be in the sieve. All I have to do is to put in the sieve, shake the bees, and let them take their time to go in, and the queen fs surely safe. BA0 EFFECTS OF EXPOSURE Beat for Farmer* to Grew Thojr Own Wh#* PoealWov-0oofj' Quality Is Obtained at 8mall Coat Most farmers can aid should grow their own seed; grains, li\ i* a very difficult and expensive practice to depend upon purchasing the proper variety and quality from the seedsman. With thorough preparation of land and culture, and very little extra cost of labor, most, if not all, the seed grain and most of the common vegetable seeds may be grown aa good, and oftentimes of better quality, than seeds bought at twice the coet. As, for example, a certain field of wheat might on the average be totally unfit for seed, while some parts of the field may be of a very good quality. By a little extra effort the seed may be selected from this small patch, threshed separately and run through the fanning mill once or twice to remove all small and shrunken grain and weed seeds. It may be best to thrash out a few bushels of grain with the old-time flail and hand pick the grain. After securing enough gr»ln to seed an acre—a start with Gr'0<! seed may be had and the standard can be kept up by selecting the best land, properly preparing the seed bet? and giving thorough cultivation and extra care in harvesting and threshing. The same method should be followed in the selection of oats, barley and corn. Although the quality of corn grown may be good, yet by careful selection of the best ears an Improvement of both yield and quality of grain may be had. It will cost no more to grow a good ear of corn than a poor one. A good standard variety will sell for considerable more for seed. A Scotch, gardener, known to the writer, made quite a neat little sum by growing a certain variety of sweet corn, lima beans and tomato seed for a northern seed firm. HIB sweet corn seed had a large sale and at an extra price. The winter is the time to select the seeds for next spring's sowing. Take time in making the selection; it is a profitable winter's work. A! ways" Makes Good CELLULAR FEEDER FOR BEES Maryland Station Makes Interesting Experiments Showing Injurious Effects on Exposed Manure. The Maryland station allowed 80 tons or manure to be exposed to the weather for one year and found that the amount was reduced to 27 tons at the end of that period. Professor Shutt of Canada allowed two tons of manure, containing 1,938 pounds of organic matter, to lie exposed during the four_ warmest months from April 29-to August 20 and found the amount reduced to 655 pounds, and the nitrogen was reduced from 48.1 pounds to 27.7 pounds, or almost one-half was lost. The experiments emphasise the necessity of putting the manure on the land as soon as possible. It is sometimes piled up and allowed to heat, Ingeniously Constructed Device for Use During Early 8pring When Food Is Lacking.

The feeder TbUB destroying much of Its value.—it must not be forgotten that much of the value of manure and all forms of organic matter come from Its rotting while in contact with the soil, and if allowed to decay before it Is gotten into the soil much of the benefit will be lost. Crop residues, such as corn stalks, stubble, straw and all other forms of vegetable matter, should be turned back into the soil and not burned, as is the common practice in some parts.

Not onjf; directors were mere but other oJaOtra asm a large number of ladies. •. ^, School officers iif f J•ImjBpTHiii i niiiilj who failed to visit tbe meeting here conducted by G. S. Lasher of the Department of Public Instruction, missed a keenly interesting discussion of the changes in school Uws and desired reforms in tbe methods of teaching and conducting school affairs. Some of the information proved little short ot startling to those present and as a result there was a lively round of questions asked Mr. Lasher, who readily responded to them all. School Officers, however are not the only ones who will be interested in the matters discussed, as the various points ehou Id command the attention of every taxpayer and person interested in the public schools Some of the ideas advanced by the speaker were almost revolutionary in character,but they are being approved by all the leading educators of to-day. Perhaps one of the most startling statements made by the speaker in discussion of the laws was that the legislature of 1911 whieh gave to the school boards almost complete taxing power, taking that privelege away from the people of the district. Under the new laws which went into effect last August, the people of the district can vote money for very few purposes, chiefly for the buying of site and the erection of school bouses. The board levies the other taxes. The peop'a have no right to dictate how much the board shall raise, bow much they shall pay to teachers, what repairea are to be made or from whom fuel is to be purchased. The board aloue has au* thority in those matters and can contract with teachers, boy furnishings and equipment for the schools, making repairs of all kinds of school property, purchase a heating plant, drive a well, build a woodshed and outhouses, paint the buildings, grade the ground, intact do all things to make your school property an honor to your district. The importance of the responsibility placed upon the school board was strongly emphasied, stating that now, if school property is poorly cared for if teachers and pupils are forced to work with inadequate equipment and unpleasant Burronndings that the blame settles entirely upon the school officers. Miss Benjamin, as well as Mr. Lasher urged them to take advantage os their power and fix up the school houtM A of this county and make them pleasant, comfortable and attractive for the boys and girls of this connty. The new law, also states a few things the boar 1 cannot do. No member on the board can do any work for the TllBtrict and" secure pay for tbe same. If they do, it is a misdemeanor, punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both, as aoy person, can make a complaint. School officers were urged not to run any risks, but to live up to the law even though it cost the district mote money.—There are only three things for which a school officer may draw money. For attending sshool meetings, taking the school census, aad eatery, which in district* having less than fifty pupils on tbe school census cannot exceed $25. and those having between fifty and one hundred cannot exceed $50- for three officers. As an order "paid to any officer for the work or supplies • / Miss Mirtie Well man is heme for a while on account of poor health.

' \Jfcsfc ; H t at Brown's Drag furnished the district would be an illegial for the return of the amount of the order to the district. The people at the annual meeting cannot nullify the laws byvoting to pay such orders to officers. The free tuition law came in for considerable attention. Under this law, the district not maintaining a legal high school must pay tuition up to 920. a year foieach pupil, who desires to attend one of the three nearest high schools. A high school is defined as a graded district maintaining twelve grades of work and having at least two teachers devoting their entire teaching time to the ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades, Ten graded schools however, in graded districts, having a teacher giving his or her entire teaching time to the ninth and tenth grades may receive tuition from other district and cannot pay tuition for its pupils until they have passed the tenth grade at home. In order for pupils to be qualified for this tuition, they must either pass the county eighth grade examination secure a statement from a superintendent of some graded school that they have passed the eighth grade there or have had their tuition paid under the free tuition law of 1909. A parent, guardian or person who stands in parental relation must make a written application on or before the fonrth Monday in June in each year, that the child desires tuition. Children must be of school age and residents of the diatriot. Heretofore the coarse of study has bean adopted by district boards* The present law, however, makes ft mandatory for the Superintendent of Publie Instruction to outline tbe coarse of study for all schools •coaptthe city schools and the teachers moat follow the outline. A justice of the peace cannot suspend sentanosin ease whet* a person ia con* viotad nnder th« oosapolsory school law. tbe duty of the teachers to report all non attendance which came under truancy to the county commiaaionet or school superintendent in the villages or cities. An amendment to the law gives the Iruan' officer authority over the out houses, iu compelling boards to make them decent and sanitary. The people at the annual meeting may designate some bank as a depository for diutriet funds and whea the bank files a bond with the district, the treasurer must deposit all the district funds there under the direction of the board. In case the bank fails tbe treasurer and his personal bondsmen are released from their liability. District treasurers must deposit the funds in any case in their own names as treasuier and whether the bank is named as a depository or uot. All interest paid to the treasurer must be paid into the general fund, otherwise the treasurer is liable to tine or im priHonment. He must keep district money separate from his personal funds and must keep a book of receipts and expenditures. Holidays to be observed by the closing of schools are as follows: Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, Decoration and all Saturdays. Teachers cannot m*ke up lost time on Saturdays. School is to be maintaiued on Washington's birthday, Lincoln's birthday and Columbus day; but appropriate exercises are ts be given in observance. The school census is to be taken within the fifteen days previous to the first day of June and must be a house to house canvass. If children move ont of the district before the fifteenth they must be crossed off the List. In order to vote at school meeting a man or women must be a citizen of the U. A. tweuty-one years of age, a resident of the district at least three months, either a landowner of property assessed for school purposes or a parent or a guardian of children between the ages of five and twenty. Only tax payers can vole to levy taxes. Only tax "paying electors are eligible to hold office and their names most be on the assessment roll, except in a case of a husband and wife owning property on a joint deed. After election a person must within ten days file a written acceptance with the director together with an affidavit taken before justice or ntOary stating that he or she 1B legally qualified to hold office. No person is legally an officer until this is done. The importance of good books as an adjunct to education, was clearly brought out and distriotswere urged to provide tb/ right kind of reading in their schools. The slate libary is ready to send fifty books to schools for their use for six months and will also send pictures of artistic worth all framed for use in school rooms. The only expense incurred by the district being the freight. A vote was taken by those present, in favor of the text books being uniform throughout the state. This was car* ried and the commissioner was asked to appoint a committeeto draw up resolution to that effect, In dosing Mr. Lasher made a strong plea for the securing of good teachers and earnest co-operation and support on tbe part of the school board members in their relation to the teachers and the schools. at SOUTH I O S C O .

Each of these stations Is maned by a crew of from six to eight surfmen—hardy and fearless fellows who are splendid specimens of physical manhood and who are skilled in handling boats in angry seas and in manipulating the various mechanical appliances which Uncle Sam provides as afds to the brawn and the quick wits of our coast patrolmen in the dangerous task of cheating the deep of Its prey. For devotion 4o a duty that necessitates eternal vigilance and the most fatiguing service the life-savers receive the modest wage of $60 per month. Moreover they receive that pay for^anly nine months a year, the ^crews being laid off during June, July and Au* vjfcust, at which season severe storms and wrecks are almost unknown. Should a life-saver be in. f/#ad during hit summer "lay-off" he not only cannot get back into the service but he cannot under ejJsting conditions draw any pension or retirement pay,. no\ matter how many years he has faithfnljy served; the nation.

Only one person at a time can be landed by the breeches buoy, but from four to six people can be carried ashore at each trip of the life car. Wbfchever be the vehicle employed, the trips continue until all the imperiled persons are safely ashore, after which an ingenious mechanical device known as the hawser cutter is drawn out to the wreck along the cableway and upon arriving at the terminus of the hawser' auto* matlcally cuts the rope, allowing the life-savers to haul it ashore and Urns preservs Intact a valuable part of their apparatus.

This may have been done by mice, rabbits, muskrats or some other rodents. Such injuries usually occur during long -hard winters when the snow is unusually deep and the animals have difficulty in finding plenty of food and they fall upon the bark of these trees as a last resort to satisfy their appetites. A great many young orchards have been pianled in the last few years adjacent to wood lots or cut-over lands where rabbits abound; ouiers have been allowed to grow up to grass and weeds where mice may have become numerous, and others have been planted near swamps or marshes where muskrats are plentiful. If the coming winter should be long and severe and the snow deep, hundreds of these trees are liable to be partially or wholly girdled before spring. If this injury is to be avoided, now Is the time to do it. There are several different kinds of material used to. protect the bark of young trees from such creatures, such as tar paper, woo& veseerr wire, mosquito netting, galvanized wire netting (four meshes to the inch), wire coils and pieces of cornstalks. All have their merits and defects. The wood veneer or tar paper pro: tectors can be secured in* large quantities at about three-quarters to a> ient apiece and they are very good.'

These shonM hft removed in the spring, how- Much has been talked and written about the advisability of feeding wet or dry mash. A great deal depends upon the purpose of the teed, whether for fattening,, growing chicks jft for egg production, and a great deal depends upon fho feeder and his facilities. Either method is good under certain conditions. For producing fine soft quality of meat soft wet foods may be used to best advantage. By wet foods are not meant sloppy foods, which are to be avoided in feeding chickens, bet moist, soft, as in fattening foods, or crumbly as in* others. A very important "don't" is "Don't feed sloppy foods." In case of the growing chicks it 1s> often noted that during the hot sumnier~ raooib* san afternoon feed of crumbly mash is better relished thaa, the dry mash. H&wever, it is a veqr '• easy method of feeding to place dry mash hoppers in or about the houses on range and aljow the birds freedom of access. Birds brought up by either system may produce very favorable results, but It should be observed and remembered that chickens , should never be changed suddenly from a wet mash to a dry mash diet, or vice versa* as this is apt to cause a severe setback. Wet mash mixed with cooked vegetables and served warm is conducive to excellent results with some feeders, but to~offer such a feed requires equipment for preparation which is not always possessed, and also takes considerable time each day. When the flock is small and there is plenty of table scraps, these fed with mash, together of course with the necessary grit, oyster shell and fresh water, should make the hens lay, provided their other care is good. In general the keener of the small flock who administers thts kind of treatment can show better egg records in percentage than the feeder of the large-flocks, due to the ration and the care. In cold weather if wet mash is fed and not eaten at once the remaining parts are apt to become icy and frozen und considerable attention must be given the troughs or feeding uten- BilS. For convenience the dry mash system Is probably best. Separate hoppers are often used for each kind of food, though the chicks must be educated to this system from the start to iiibure best results. A mixture 1B many times made of the different foods and this placed In large hoppers for use, or as is a common custom with many, the mash is fed at a regular period each day. Bran, middlings, corn meal, ground oats or bar-, alfalfa meal, and meat in some us green -cut bonr or connneref scrap, are among the most mon of these foods, ens learn to relish the dry foods and cannot gorge themselves when eating, but gain a certain amount of exercise and keep busy longer, which in itself is an important factor in egg i>poduetio&. — — — - A system of feeding which is practiced with much satisfaction Is that of feeding a light grain ration, if any, in the morning. A noon feed, which may be given between 10:00 and 12:00 a. m., consisting of a mash of equal parts by weight of bran, middlings, rnrn meal and h*>ef grrap with a Httlp HAVEf YQU SUSPEXOTJ YOLI m MA fortunately no For 81» •Fhad ae advice of a h who spokn J<J*!"^*-"f-- r, but on the old gentleman Iboganto t 1 yean ago," •ays she **) fair, and admits plump on the sew sail *U how l e n t ftS 91 wejBUu^«|Rid cas 0*$' ifUe* srday*«&d tset tor dolnr\so.tr new to in-»r-s«t», tod U t s bow oojck, aieti sad tireless- my ever, as they often harbor Insects and fungi which may do harm to the bark.

Some think thoro 1» pconomy in buying the cheap "Big Can" Baking- Powders.

The cheap 'Rig Can" Baking Powders-should avoided. On the other hand, many housewives feel that a baklnj? powder is of no value unless they pay 50 cents a pound for It— the price charged for the hlajh priced 'Trust" brands.

Money to the amount of $14,- 500,000 was spent in the anH-tnb. erculosis work during the year 1911, according to the third annual statement expenditures in the war against consumption issued by The National Association for the Study and-Preveniion ^f-Tnberculosis to-day. The statement is based largely on reports received from anti-tuberculosis agencies in all paits of the United States, Where actual reports were not available, tbe figures were necessarily estimated.

Guinea bens are careless with their broods, expose them to the wnather and lead them where ani mals and birds of prey find them an easy mark. They thus do not rear so Jbigh a percentage as the hen, but their chicks are better. Q. When, eggs are set In incubators and under ^ens. which hatches the highest percentage? A. The ben ordinarily gives 20 per cent more chicks, with 25 per cent less mortality. Q. When is artificial incubation first mentioned and by whom? A* By Arts totle, tutor of Alexander the Great. 884-322 B. O. Q. Does the female pigeon do all the hatching? A. No. The cock generally sits on the eggs from 10 a. m. to 4 p. m., and the hen then takes ber turn to 10 a. m. tbe nest morning. Q. Do you really think It Is necessary to test eggs out of incubators? A. YeBr---The oaaln~ reason-is that bacteria in eggs with dead germs or rots kill or weaken the germs in good eggs The removul of infertile and bad eggs also gives room for turning and saves heat Q.

I wns walking aloojfelde the train and uuw a thin smoke coming out from under one of the can*. Thinking it to come from a hot box, 1 stooped to examine the truck, but the running gear was as cool ae a cucumber. Then, looking up, I noticed u email tin pipe protrud ing from the bottom of the car. through which smoke was coming In little puffs. •'Well, I'll be jlnKed!'1 I said to my- Harei a tn*tM mr, aeaVd wtth Hac*>W aiai a atsftjs _JSJB sjy rlffbt intad. cd off the brnUe wluVl. pitting 11 spell JIJ.'O." S rrifle lower and craned lb n little further hi order - io^get a better view. There was 1 he pipe, evidently a part of a leader from a gutter belonging to tbe roof of a bouse. It extended a few indies downward, then turned with nn elbow. the second part extending about a foot rearward. As I looked the puffs continued as regular as those com ins from a locomotive making a steady gait. What to do 1 didn't know. I was afraid to notify tbe conductor fof fear I'd find out that I'd had a stroke and saw things that didn't exist. Some thing occurred just then tbat made me think I'd,surely gone daft. I heard a girl's, giggle. There wasn't any connection-bet weena steam engine and a girl shut up In a box car, especially a sealed box ear. but there was a good deal to excite curiosity. 1 stopped worrying about myself and began to wonder what there was inside tbat car. J stood off. looked at It and walked all around it A freight train ia made up of differ ent kinds of cars, and this car was $s ^ecially 4ifffirent fromthe others, It looked as though it might have been a caboose turned Into a box. Tbe thing most noticeable about It was a door at one end. Why I hadn't noticed this before I don't know unless It was because the end was only about two feet from the end of another car. I saw that there was or had been a lock on the door. There wasn't any knob, but a nail had been put through the screw bole of the steel piece on which the knob had been fixed. I climbed up on the coupling and tried to turn the nail to open the door. 1 didn't succeed. 1 listened, but everytMna; was still. But I didn't forget tbat giggle, nnd pretty soutM knocked. In a few moments I heard whispers within. Then all of a sudden the doeiLwng pulled open, andjhere stood a_boy arida girl. Besides these, I got a view of the car. There was a carpet on It, the worse for wear; in one corner was a mattress with bedclothing; In the ceo tor was a pine table, and at one sid ' was a cook stove.

It looked as though it might have been a caboose turned into a box. The thing most noticeable about It was a door at one end. Why I hadn't noticed this before I don't know unless it was because the end was only about two feet from the end of another car. '* I saw tbat there was or had been a lock on the door. There wasn't any knob, but a nail had been put through the screw hole of the steel piece on which the knob had been fixed. 1 climbed up on the coupling and tried to turn the nail to open the door. 1 didn't succeed. ! listened, but everything was still. But I didn't forget tbat giggle, and pretty soon I knocked. In a few moments I heard whispers within. Then aU_ of a sudden. the_doojr_w_ngX pulled open, and there stood a boy and a girl. Besides these. I got a view of the car.

A coin slipped quietly Into the man's hand served to deepen this Impression, and unlocked discreet lips otherwise sworn to secrecy. Out of much general information a iittle of real value was tbus extracted— Miss Maclaire's act began at 9:45 and was over promptly at 10:10.

As they advanced, the long habit of frontier life caused Keith to glance behind before they bad progressed a block, and he was thus made aware that they were being followed.

The Absolute Zero. What is the absolute sero of temper store? The sero of thermometers is purely conventional. The Inventor of the centigrade simply took for sero the coldest temperature known in his day, while Fahrenheit had even less 'ground for his selection. Absolute sero Is a point fixed by nature and may be arrived at in a variety of ways. All gases expand or contract equal amounts for every degree of heat The amount of 1-273*of their volume for each degree—centigrade. If, then, a gas is cooled down contln uously it must reach a point at which further contraction Is impossible. If a gas loses 1-273 of its volume at each downward degree of centigrade then in 273 degrees if wouli| exhaust tills power and become a solid; hence tlsaiaus) 278 O. is the annotate zero of temgeratnre.

Its latest, and certainly one of its most Important services on behalf of mankind is the placing in commission of a second hospital and school on wheels known as a first aid to the injured car. The object of this ingenious portable Red Cross headquarters is to interest and instruct in first aid work the railroad men and ' other toilers of the country. By means of this car the Red Cross will \xi enabled to carry on a much-needed form of "missionary work" and can get in close touch, as it could by no other method, with the workinRinen of t h e laud who are in a position to render the most valuable servli-e as volunteer Red Cross workers. The first aid car which lias lately gone into commission is the second of.these cars to be sent a wandering up and down the steel-tracked high ways of the United States, but the first one, which was introduced less than a year ago, went forth with-somodest a heralding that the general public heard little of it or its work, No sooner, however, had Car No. 1 entered upon the work of giving Instruction in first aid to employes of various railroad systems than it became evident that a single car would be insufficient to u cei C.e demands for this new service. Accordingly a second car was arranged for—an old parlor car being purchased by the Red Cross and rebuilt for this specl- 8e purpose. Henceforth the Red Cross officials will be enabled to realize their dream to keep one of the cars constantly in service on the "railroads west of the Mississippi ahd~ the other- on the railway systems east of the Mississippi. The Red Crosa first aid Instruction cars are rather small cars judged by present day standards, but this was designrdly so and is an advantage rather than a detriment. Indeed, with a length of less than sixty feet such a car may be used not only on the mountain divisions of railways, with their sharp curves, but also on some trolley lines. Indeed, the car can be , V , i > < ***•£ **:>L with carrying this first aid crusade into the shops and mills and throughout the railroad world, tbb Red Cross h a s lately enlisted the co-operation of the Boy Scouts of America, and first aid instruction is being given to all of the youngsters in this organization according to plans and methods prepared -by the Red Cross. Such are the demands upon it that a first aid car cannot remaiu for long at any given point. The general plan adopted is to spend about three days at each point selected by the railway officials—that is, the officers of the railroad sys- TJfE FfErW FIRST-AID CAR OF* THE?

As a rule it is not practicable thoroughly to instruct men in first aid work in so short a time, but they learn considerable of the subject and there is an arousal" of interest which almost invariably results in the organization of a first aid corps which is developed by local physicians and with the aid of the Red Cross instruction books and emergency outfits. Still further to stimulate interest throughout the country the Red Cross has set aside a fund of $5,000 the income of • which is to be distributed annually in prizes to, the first aid workers • who show the greatest proficiency or who perform exceptionally dangerous or arduous first aid work. The past few years has seen remarkable progress In Vie proficiency attained by workmen In caring tor their fellows who have suffered injuries in the line of their work. From the rough and ready surgery in which the workman has always displayed some skill in treating the injuries peculiar to his own special vocation, modern antiseptic methods have been acquired and now the unfortunate victim of an accident Is given all the chances in his fight for life that modem science can devise.

Incidentally it may be mentioned that the railroads of the country are manifesting their appreciation of the valuable snd disinterested work which the Red Cross is doing In this sphere by hauling the first aid cars free of charge over their respective lines. The first 'aid car is divided into two parts of •Imost equal size. One-half of the space of the _tr«Rr is given over to an aesembly and demonstra- JUttt room—for, as has been explained, the car -hospital school on wheels—and the other is taken up by the living quarters for the .Instructors and crew.

Statistics seem to indicate that about one-half of the accidents which result in inlury or death would have heen preventable by the exercise of proper care and reasonable preventive measures and the Ked Cross Is endeavoring to teach workmen how to dodge mishaps and how to minimize the effect of an accident if It does appear inevitable. The Red Cross will not depend entirely upon the lessons and lectures given on the first aid cars, although these pave the way for effort in the direction of volunteer first aid. work. Supplementing these are aeries of charts and. more important yet, simple books of instruction and surgical materials which can prove serviceable In unskilled hands. A special first aid book has been issued for the use of industrial workers and has been translated into Italian, Slovak, Polish and Lithuanian, In the near future there will be issued other editions of this work specially adapted for use by women, bv policemen and firemen, by sailors and by farm hands and ranch workers. Of course it Is not the thought that such Instruction will enable even the most skilled of the volunteer Red Cross workers to replace the doctor except in the CUBP of trivial injuries, but vith the new knowledge these volunteers will know what to do until t h e doctor arrives, and cften.' by stopping a flow of blood or by other means, mnv be enabled to save Hie when a regular physician is not promptly on the scene. To cover the full scope of this new work the Red Cross has found it necessary to go even farther and to supplement its work of instruction by providiric; several different forms of first aid boxes equipped with certain simple remedies and necessities such as are required~ta»-~fnming the first aid Instruction into practice 19 shops and elsewhere These supplies are sold at prices which are intended merely to cover ths cost otJ* preparation without providing any profit. ...and*»4& vthat they supply a long felt want wouW be indtcatsd by the fact that the Re-1 during the past year, sold conBiderabl $5,000 worth of such supplies. And, While the question as to which preceded the other, thp epp or the hen, Is stfl! a subject for dispute in the district school debating societies, the question as to which came first into use, the pipe or the cigarette, appears to have the greater part of the evidence, so far as white testimony, is concerned, In favor of the cigarette—and anti-tobacconists may put that in their pipe and smoke it. the Indianapolis News remarks. When Columbus landed on the Island of Guanahani, which he called Sanx Salvador, on October 12, 1492, he and his men sswV to their great astonishment, a number ot copper colored natives collected on the Bhore putting clouds of smoke from their lips and noses. They were smoking what later came to be called tobacco, the leaves of which the natives had formed Into cylindrical rolls within the husks of the Indian com. While this was evidently the most primitive way of burning the leaf, there were pipes ion*j before Columbus arrived. Large numbers of pipes have been found in so-called Indian mounds in the central west, as well as along the northern lakes and throughout the south, in 1519, when Cortes invaded Mexico, the native^ smoked pipes made from reeds and richly ornamented. Montezuma, it has been recorded, waa accustomed to take bis pipe after dinner when it was brought to him with much ceremony by a bevy ot beautiful maidens and handed to him after he had rinsed bis mouth with scented water. The North American Indian usually made his pipes out of a kind of stone known as red pipestone, of v/Llch there were large deposits in the old Sioux country and the great spirit is said to have given his indorsement to this particular material, which might have been a Sioux monopoly. In these words: "This stone i s red. It is your tieah. it belongs to you in all. Out of It make no more tomahawks, war hatchets nor scalping knives, use it only to make the pipe of peace and smoke therefrom when you would propitiate me and do my will."

Thar eouid be counted as a trouble, but not too burdensome to be borne. Time lightens all griefs, and tune lightened this one for the Widow Kane. When tinyear of mourning w a s np ;-lie found Solomon Williams, the village blaci; smith, waiting to say to her ••Widow Fane. 1 knew George f"r many years. He u u s a good man and a good husband. I know you have mourned him, but a woman can't gt« on mourning forever. I want a wife." "Well, Sol, I'll think it over ;ind lei you know," was the reply. l i e called a week Inter, and she said she would marry him. No courting and no great display of senthneni. The wedding was put for a month ahead, but only two weeks had eiap> ed when the blacksmith got tangled up in a thrashing machine he was repairing, and his leg w a s so badly man gled that it had to come off. The widow gave him a moip.li to re-core;' from the shock and then visited him to say: "Solomon, I'm a plain spoken worn an." "Drive ahead. Mary." he replied. •T couldn't marry a man with a wooden l"g. and you'll have to have 'United States. one when you get up." _ Two months later Farmer Griggs, widower, called. He had five children, and he wanted a wife. \lc spoke about the weather and the crops and then said: "Widder. I wish you would consider me. I've often said to myself that yon was a mighty nice woman." "Give me three days to think it over." At the end of three days Farmer Griggs called again, to be told that he was accepted. Foftr days later a horse kicked Mr. Griggs smack in the face and smash ed his nose so flat that the doctors had to make a long hunt to find it. When they found it they told him that he would be a noseless man from thence on. There wasn't enough of it "o call a nose any more, Of course the news was carried tc the widow.

The report of the employers' liability and workingmen's compensation commission, together with a draft of the bill prepared by, the commission for'suljmission to the next legislature, was presented to Gov. Osborn at Lansing. It is a voluminous document and includes all the data relating to industrial accidents gathered by the commission. There are 250,000 wage earners In the state and in 1910 there were 220 fatalities and 1:1,000 accidents of all kinds, which the members of the commission unanimously agree furnishe? ample grounds for the enactment of a compensation law. The conclusion is reached that any compensation law should be optional and that in the operation of such a law all injured employes, except those injured through their own wilful negligence, should be compensated, with the exception of persons engaged in domestic service and agricultural industries, who are excluded from the provisions of the bill. Would Abolish Divorce. "Abolish the divorce laws of Michigan" is the advice of Judge E, D. Kinne. of Ann Arbor, who has sat on the circuit bench of Washtenaw county lor the last quarter of a century. "In my opinion there is. but one sovereign remedy for the divorce evil in this state," said Judge Kinne.. "Hltnerto, as a rule, t have administered the law as I have found t on the statute books and In the reports. I doubt if I have given the subject the serious thought it demands. It haB seemed to me that divorce was apparently tbe only means of escape from brotality, wretchedness and hopeless unhappiness, and therefore that it was justifiable and perhaps wise; but of late the privilege of divorce has been so misused and abused, and I have witnessed such flagrant disregard of the truth, morality and decency, that my former convictions have experienced considerable remorse, if not revolution." Must Come Back. Gov. Osborn has informed Warden Russell that he desires James Cuahway, the paroled convict under arrest -at San-Francisco, r e t u r n e O o the Marquette prison. Sheriff Lehman this week received a telegram notifying him of Cushway's arrest, and asking if he was wanted here. When Gov. Osborn was informed of the matter at St. Ignace, where he was held up by a storm on his way to Lansing, he said that Cushway should by all means_be returned to the Marquette prison, where he has about 13 years of his sentence still to serve. The prison authorities h a v e . s e n t requisition papers for Cushway to Lansing and when they are returned Deputy Warden Catlln will be sent for the prisoner. Forms $100,000 Central Traction Co.

One of the most peculiar cases of suicide which has come to the notice of the authorities recently is that of Mrs. Margaret Vardy, who died Tuesday in Detroit. The investigation made by Coroner Rothacher revealed the fact that the woman drank a glass of water in which she had previously soaked 160 matches. Although she was given the best of medical attention, the prosphorus poisoning developed so rapidly that it was impossible to save her life. Ask Tax Law Changs. Large manufacturing concerns of Detroit are appealing to Congressman Doremus for his- assistance in securing the passage of an amendment to the corporation tax law.

DR. SUN ELECTED HE ACCEPTS PRESIDENCY CHINA PROVINCES AS A DUTY. OF W I L L DEMAND W I T H D R A W A L OF TROOPS. Prepared to Extend Armistice Pending Final Negotiations—New Republic's Head Is a Christian. The republic of China, the first gove m i n e n t of that nature in the orient, officially came into being with the election of Dr. Sun Yat Sen president. The republic as it stands consists only of^ 18 federated provinces and the leaders declare that the Manchu dynasty has only a few more w e e k s and perhaps days, oi official existence. The delegates to the provisional military assembly acted without waiting for a national convention to decide what form of government should prevail in the future. Dr. Sun Yat -Sen, who left China as a political exile, but who comes back as the idol of the bulk of the 400,000- 000 of people making up the population, is still a political outlaw in the eyes of the Pekin government which set a price of $50,000 on his head. Seventeen of the 18 delegates to the republican assembly voted for Dr. Sun. Only one vote w a s cast against him. The new president is being closely guarded by revolutionary soldiers to prervent an attack on his life byagents of the Manchu government That plots exist against him is known. Spies of the Pekin government were sent south immediately on the arrival of the revolutionary chieftain. Lake__Business- Beats Record." Just 2,574 vessels of all kinds, this y e a r , passed through t h e Well&nd canal, up and down, breaking the record for any previous year in the history of the canal. Last year the lockages totaled nearly 400 less than in the season of 1911, though 15)10 was also away in excess of all previous years. Most of the boats coming down the canal carried wheat during the season, and the bulk of teh cargoes upbound for Fort William was coal. Very few vessels went through light, the "season being a pretty good one for marine carriers. Perhaps more than 50,000,000 bushels of wheat were brought down through the canal during the season, and the biggest cargo was carried by the big oil steamer, The Toller, w t o c V Ann"" A F L _ ^ L U o o k . , the greatest load th«Mig*r*kr A B R A T D o r I o r T W e l l a n d canal in the c a n a l ' s % l f t « m over 90,000 bushels of wheat, • China Republic Near. , Premier Yuan-Shi-Kal has submitfecrto the more prominent Manchus of Peking the proposal emanating from Shanghai for the meeting of a" special future form of government which should be adopted for China, This step by the premier practically means that he asks the court to decide Its own fate because the members of such a national assembly would decide in favor of a republic.

But sit down, Hope, until I tell you all that has occurred." He went over the various events in' detail, watching eagerly the expression upon her face as she listened intently, only occasionally Interrupting with some pertinent inquiry.

That was the one thing which made it seem an actuality—which brought It home to her as a rugged fact. But for that—and Keith—Keith sitting there before her—she would have doubted it all. And yet even Keith had come into her life so suddenly, so unexpectedly, as to leave ber dazed and uncertain, that she extended her hand and touched him, as though to make sure of his actual presence. "What is It, Hope?" "Oh, nothing—nothing," her voice breaking in a little sob. "It is so silly, but I was just wondering if you were real—everything seems so impossible ) cannot bring my mind to grasp the situation." He did not smite, but only took the groping hand into both of his own. "1 think I understand, little girl." he said gravely. "You are totall/ unused to such life. Almost without a moment's warning you aave been plunged Into a maelstrom of adventure, and are all confused. It is different with me—since the first shot at Sumter my life has been one of action, and adventure has grown to bo the stimulus I need, and upon which I thrive. But I assure you." pressing the soft hand warmly, "I am real." "Of course I know that; It makes me glad to know it.

"Why couldn't I? 1 am sui'n I could. Oh, Mr. Keith, it has Ju»t cctne to me how I run help." '^-. .- He looked at her n,ue?>tioning!y, thinking of her beauty rather than of what she said. "Do—do I really appear so much like—like that woman?" rhe asked anxiously, "Very much, Indeed, ex-xjiting for the alight difference in age" "That would never be noticed In the dark, or a poor light. Am I the same height?" "Practically, yes." "And my voice?—could you distinguish me from her by my voice?" "I might; yet probably not. unless ray suspicions were arousedv WhaLjs it you are thinking about?" She took a deep breath, standing now directly facing him in the light. "Of playing Miss Maclalre to-night," she said quickly. "Of taking her place, and learning what it is of so much Importance Hawley has to report. Don't you think It might be done?" The sheer audacity of this unexpected proposal left him speechless. He arose to his feet, gripping the back of the chair, almost doubting if he could have heard aright, his eyes searching the girl's face which was glowing with excitement. Of course he could not permit of her exposure to such a risk; the scheme was Impracticable, absurd. But was it? Did It APJL offerja, f_air_ chan.ee of success? And was not the possible resultworthy the risk assumed? He choked back the earlier words of protest unuttered, puzzled as to what he had best say. A quick-witted resourceful woman might accomplish all she proposed. 'It looks so simple," she broke in INDIVIDUAL CAPRICE MARKS STYLES T H I S SEASON.

"That would be so small—merely lh_e__short walk alone; with him from the theater to the hotel." she pleaded. "Once here it could make no difference if he did discover my Identity, for there would be plenty of men near at hand to come to my defence. Oh, please say yes." "If I do, then we must make the illusion perfect, and take as few chances of discovery as possible. I must learn exactly how the other dresses, and when she leaves the theater. Fortunately for the success of your plan the Trocadero permits no one but performers to come behind the scenes, so that Hawley will be compelled to wait for the lady outsid« the stage door. 1 bad better go at once, and see to these details." "Yes," she said, her eyes sparkling with anticipation, "and I am so glad you are willing. I will be most discreet You are not sorry I made tho proposal?" (TO B E C O N T I N U E D . ) In the matter of turn, which, until recently, showed little variety, the vo&ue lor the picturesciue is strongly marked. The m.w long coats, for example, are made with rather full fronts, gracefully draped around the figure and held in place with knots of velvet or satin ribbon. Linings for the long coats are Of sutitt-veiled wi-Hi-ohtffon, or of richly brocaded Hlks, often having threads of gold or silver running through the designs. Small heads and tails of fur are belug used as motifs, under which the garment fastens. Wide lichullke stoles are finding favor in the eyes of fashionable women. Three reasons why they are so popular are warmth, becomingness and the fact that they can be made of velvet and fur or satin edged with fur. The latter are made quite warm by an Interlining of lamb's-wool. These long, searfllke stoles are extremely supple and can be draped -about the shoulders- -with—exquisite grace. Often two furs are combined in the making of these stoles. Others are of velvet bordered with wide bands of fur. They are alwayB lined with delicate satin, chiffon or brocade. Ermine will be very much worn by those who can afford such luxuries. It will be made up both with and without the small black tails. Short scarfs and shoulder wraps of ermine are popular and it will aluo be used as trimming for other furs. The new fitchew fur is greatly—in demand. It resembles the American skunk, but Is of finer and softer texture, darker and richer In coloring. Moleskin is coming to the front again and seal is always a good choice. Muffs of fur are made larger than ever, perfectly flatMIke a pillow, or with a curved end made to throw over the hands. This is to he a "fur season." If you have any old furs packed away in camphor, bring them out, have them remodeled and glory In their soft warmth, knowing the while that you are following the fashion. Going Back to Paganism Birthday Candles.

Local officials say that the worship of Flor and Lavra had never totally disappeared from theae districts, but assumed alarming . proportions alter the bad harvests of the past three years.

The consequence was that many thousands of peasants ceased to attswt the churches, took to sacrificing institute to study the movement.
