Bordeaux—The minister of the interior, Louis J, Malvy, announced Sunday that the famous cathedral of Rheims had been destroyed and all the other historic and public buildings either laid in ruins or seriously damaged during the bombardment of Rheims by the German artillery. The structures which the minister said had been destroyed or ruined included, in addition to the cathedral, the twelfth century church of St. Jacques, the fifteenth century archbishop's palace, and the city hall, dating from the seventeenth century. M. Malvy said that official reports revealed that the cathedral was in flames, the burning having begun Saturday as a result of ceaseless bombardment. If the reported destruction of the cathedral of Rheims is true, it is the greatest loss from an historical and artistic sense of the present war. Begun on the site of an earlier church erected by Robert McCourcy in 1212, and continued at intervals down to the fifteenth century, it has been described as "the most perfect example in grandeur and grace of Gothic style in existence." Reports of Fight Differ. Reports differ as -to the progress of the great battle in northern Prance between the allied British and French armies and the Germans. Some indicate that there 1B extremely heavy fighting, while others tell of the great masses of troops lying in flooded trenches, many of them at the stage of exhauston. At some points, at least, fierce engagements have been fought, with the tide flowing first in one direction and then in the other. The allies have won a position here, and the Germans have gained one there. But all reports official and otherwise, agree that there is much fighting yet to be done before any material advantage can be claimed by either side. The British in the trenches say: "We are slowly beating them back." The French official statement declares that though furiously c6unter attacked by superior forces and obliged to yield some ground, this was regained almost immediately. Berlin officially announces that the Franco-British forces have been obliged to take the defensive in entrenched positions and that therefore the result of the German attacks are slow. Information On Sea Fighting. Interesting information has been given out by the British admiralty regarding British successes and misfortunes in various waters. The British merchant cruiser Carmania has sunk a German merchant cruiser, supposed to be either the Cap Trafalgar or the Berlin, off the cost of South America, but the German cruiser Kienlgsberg has completely disabled the British cruiser Pegasus while the latter was overhauling her machinery in Zunihar harbor, killing 26 men and wounding more than three times that number; and the German cruiser has sunk six British merchant steamers in the Bay of Bengal. There has been a review off the island of Halkr by the sultan of the Turkish fleet, including the former German cruisers Breslau and Goeben, after which the warships proceeded to Constantinople for coal Italy, according to reports from Rome, has now more than a half million men under arms.

(Special Correspondence.) The four days' battle along the line from Noyon to the France-German frontier on the east was continued all day Saturday. The fighting became more furious than ever. During the combat along the River Aisne the adversaries in many instances came to hand to hand clashes and the Bayonet was used extensively. As a result of the terrific fighting the Germans were forced to retire about seven miles. % The bloody scenes of the battlefield have no retarding effect on either side. The carnage was horrifying, but the troops appear to have become hardened and fought with great coolness. . Silence Masked Guns? The allies' aviators apparently discovered the placements of some big German guns, notwithstanding the cleverness with which they are hidden beneath an earthen covering strewn with the branches of trees. The allies' artillery opened a concentrated fire on a certain portion of the line and the heavy German artillery shortly after lapsed into silence at that spot, although it is not known whether they were made impotent or merely were effecting a change of position owing to their position having become untenable. Germans Move Back. It is impossible to learn from any one portion of the line what is occurring at other places, but an inclination to recede slightly seemed evident on the German side, although they offered the most obstinate resistance and fought us if made of iron. The allies at the same time doggedly pursued the small advantage they able tenacity and intrepidity, but were unable to break through the firm line presented by the allies' infantry. The fight Just before daybreak was the most violent of all. The Germans appeared to throw into the charge all that remained of their energy, but were rolled back with enormous losses. Many Teutons Sacrificed. Before retiring behind their big guns they sacrificed many of their number, displaying resolution which- approached desperation. A vigorous counter attack from the allies ensued, during which a small extent of groand was gained. Behind the fighting line along the Acy-pulscux road still lie many of the dead who fell In the fighting of September 5. Laborers engaged in the task of interment declared that although- they had buried great numbers over a thousand bodies still awaited removal from the battlefield. In General Battle. The real fighting started on the morning of the fourteenth, when the battle became general along the range of heights to the north of the Aisne. The fighting was sustained with deadly earnestness during all of the next day, the Germans desperately connatlcs wno knew nothing of the tear of death. But they were rolled back again, and to their enormous losses of the night was added another long roll of dead and wounded. It was as If this was their one chance of salvation, and all the desperation and all the resolution at their command were thrown into it. Hardly had they recovered from this final grand sortie when the Utiles followed with a vigorous counter attack in an effort to catch the Germans off their balance. In this the allies were partly successful, for they gained ground slightly. On the morning of the seventeenth fighting again was resumed with the desperation that rivaled that of the big night attack. At the end of the day it appeared that the Germans had been forced to retire, about seven miles. During the fighting, which lasted all day and Into the night, the Germans lost 600 prisoners. Severe Russian Reverses. The extent of the Russian reverses In Bast Prussia Is not yet definitely known. Petrograd dispatches deny that the situation Is anything like as bad as the Berlin reports would indicate. The German version is set CHARGE OF THE KAISER'S INFANTRY. testing every foot of the way in a supreme endeavor to hold their positions until re-enforcements could arrive. On the night of the fifteenth they appeared to have been strengthened, and commenced their formidable movement against the French and British all along their front. A furious attack on the allies' extreme left, with the big guns of the rival artillerists lighting the line of the opposing fronts in fiery shilouette, was repulsed with great courage by the allies. Again and again the Germans returned to the attack with the tenacity that was the marvel of French troops, but each time they were repulsed. No fewer than ten times did they drive their CHEERFULLY DESTROY THEIR OWN HOMES Cottagers of Waelham, a suburb of Antwerp, burning their own home in order that the guns in the fortifications might have a clear sweep of the enemy's lines. % gained and lept at the heels of their reluctantly retiring foe.

Responding to Emperor Williams' protest against the France-British armies' alleged use of dumdum bulletB and to the Belgian commissioner's presentation of atrocity charges against the German troops. President Wilson made virtually identical replies. The keynoteB of his answer was: "It would be inconsistent with the neutral position of any nation, which, like this, has no part In the contest, to form or express a final judgment."

Germans Leaving Belgium. Except for two army corps with their supports of marines and old men, which the Belgian army is keeping busy around Antwerp, the Germans have almost entirely left the country. No Peace Proposals. Sir Cecil Spring-Rice, the British ambassador at Washington, received a cable message from Sir Edward Grey, the British minister for foreign affairs, saying that Great Britain had received no proposal for peace, direct* ly or Indirectly, from either Germany or Austria, and therefore was not in a position to consider terms of peace.

One hundred years ago the little American force. pretentiously designated as the Army of the North re* tired from Plattsburg to the south bank of the Saranac river, in readiness to meet the British army, which waa now almost within striking distance. General Macomb, the American commander, had about 3,500 men in. his army, buj pernaps less than 2,000 were fit for active duty. The British force numbered between 12,000 and 14,000 men, the majority of whom were veterans in the service.

YEAR*. EXPERIENCE Another Change For The Meat Market A short time ago nearly every issue of this paper had something to Kay about the changing proprietors of the Piuckney hotel. J imes have changed, probably the war has affected the situation, anyway we are now interested in the meat-market game. It becomes u puzzle to note not only the change in the location of the market but the shifting back and forth of the proprietors. First, L. E. Powell of Ann Arbor opened a meat market in the Murphy building and Pinckney for a short period possessed two butcher shops, Dave Smith being already on the field. Theu Powell pur-| chased Smith's business and moved into Smith's old stand. This transaction seemed to be progressing satisfactorily when last week a deal was closed by which Dave Smith again assumed control of the market in his own building and Powell will return with his family to Ann Arbor. Mr. and Mrs. Powell have made many friends while here who will be sorry to have them leave Pinckney. Mr. Smith extends a hearty welcome to all his former customers.

Citizens of Michigan are nrged to participate in the observance of this day. Importance and value may be given the day if the proper authorities will call public meetings at which the subject of fire prevention will be considered or will organize clean-up rallies at which time investigations will be made as to the possible existence of fire risks. The schools may aid by devoting a portion of the day to the study of the subject of how fires can be prevented. Each individual in every community in the state can do much to reduce the fii£ hazards by making it a point on this day to look into conditions on his own premises and applying a xemedy against possible fires where such a remedy is needed.

From Beautiful Wyoming The following letter received recently from C. L. Grimes, a former Pmckney boy, is enough to give anybody a desire to emigrate West. The Dispatch', Pinckney, Mich. Dear Friend:— Please change my address from Wayside, Neb., toRivertoo, Wyo,, wheie we are located for the school yeur. L^et year we were in the northern part of the fctate> thia year we are in the western part, 350 miles west of our South Dakota home. Eiverton is a new town, but eight years old, having a population of about 900. Situated in a beautiful valley, all under irrigation from the Wind River, which swings around the town, less than a mile away, th9 town is already nearly bidden by trees. Through the gutters of the street the water of the irrigation system flows, water from the mountains; as clear and pure as water can he, so that every yard and garden may enjoy the benefit. Riverton is a mite high, and I have never before found such ideal weather, at this time of the year, as we are enjoying here. It has been an interesting sight to us, while enjoying these late* summer days, with vegetation all about us as green as in the month of May, to look up at the lofty range of the Rocky Mountains to the south and west, with its snow covered peaks and valleys. We believe we shall like Riverton the best oi any place we have found. We made final proof on our homestead last month, so that now we have, to show for our* work in the pent four and a half yean, 160 acres of fine land, fenced and cross fenced, with considerable of it under cultivation and with good buildings. Lloyd completed his professional work last.month, at the State Normal, and this week he has entered opon bis first work as principal, at Reynolds, Neb., about 900 miles southeast of us. Tours sincerely, C. L. Grimes.

Their household pod* sold, the $100 auction money, all (they have left, will place Abe in the Old [Mans home, or Angy In the Old Ladies' nome. Both are self-sacriflctng but Abe decides: "My dear this is the fust time i ye had a chance to take the wust of it." iTfie old couple bid good-by to the little mouse.

She tells p e other old ladies, and Blossy, who has paid a double fee for the only double bed- JJiamber. voices the unanimous verdict tnat Abe must be taken in with his wife. Abe awakens next morning to find that ha is "Old Lady No. SI." The old ladies Jftve hlrn such a warm welcome that he A*,01.. t 0 f e e l a t ^ome at once.

It "plagued" the others, however, to jjsee that none of them could get ahead jof Blossy in their noble endeavors to make Abraham feel himself a light and welcome burden. She it was who discovered that Abe's contentment could ot be absolute without griddlecakes 'or breakfast three hundred and slxtyve tinaes a year; she it was who first baked him little saucer cakes and pies because he was partial to edges; and Blossy it was who made out a list of "Don'ts" for the sisters to follow in Itheir treatment of this grown-up jyoung-old boy. 1 "Don't scold him when he leaves the doors open. Don't tell htm to wipe Shis feet. Don't ever mention gold minee or shiftless husbands," etc., etc. AH these triumphs of Blossy's intuition served naturally to spur the •others on to do even more for Brother iAbe than they had already done, until Jthe old man began to worry for fear Jthat he should "git sp'llt." When he lay down for his afternoon nap and jthe house was dull and quiet without )bis waking presence, the ladles would |gather In groups outside his door as if in a king'e antechamber, waiting for him to awaken, saying to one another iever and again, "Sh, sh!" He processed to scoff at the attentions he received, would grunt and growl ."Humbug!" yet nevertheless he [thrived In this latter-day sunlight. His bid bones took on' flesh. His aged kindly face, all seamed with care as It had been, filled ont, the wrinkles (turning Into twinkles. Abraham had wn young again. With the return ills youth came the spirit of youth the Old Ladles' home. Verily, very, as Blossy had avowed from the it, they had been In sore need of e masculine presence. The ancient .t and hat, which had hung in the hall so long, had perhaps served its purpose In keeping the burglars away, but this lifeless substitute had not prevented the crabbed gnomes of loneliness and discontent from stealing in. Spinster, wife and widow, they had every one been warped by the testy jest-so-nees of the old maid. Now, Instead of fretful discussions of health and food, recriminations and wrangling, there came to be laughter and good-humored chatter all the day long, each sister striving with all her strength to preserve the new-found [harmony of the home. There were musical evenings, when Miss Abigail opened the melodeon and played "Old Hundred," and Abraham was encouraged to pick out with one stiff foretaper "My Grandfathers Clock." payout tones" were suns in chorus; then, In. answer to Abe's appeal something livelier, there came 'tried ditties and old, old love {songs. And at last,'one night, after leaving the Instrument silent, mute in |the corner or the parlor for many {rears, Aunt .Nancy Smith dragged out fear harp, and, seating herself, reached out her knotted, trembling hands and (brought forth what seemed the Tory •die; so faint and faltering it was, of ^Douglas, Douglas, Tender and True." There was a long silence after she tied finished, her head bowed on her ibest, her bands dropped to her sides. Abraham spoke first, clearing his (:-' ghroat before be could make the words I t t t t oould git a husband fer ;**<*? one of yer," said be. - ad one was angry, and no one Jtaghed; lor they all knew that be & ^rl&ljm:**.- •*&*«> express-the mee- V- ^ ?

The picture betrayed that Captain Darby wore a wig designed for a large* man, and that the visage beneath was gnarled and weather-beaten, marked with the signs of a stubborn and unreasonable will. Even now the aged belle could bear him saying: "Here I be, come eround ter pop ag'in. Ready ter hitch?" Samuel's Inelegant English had always been a source of distress to Blossy; yet still Bhe stared long at the picture. Six months had passed since his last visit; tomorrow would be the date of his winter advent. Should she give the old unvarying answer to his tireless formula? She glanced around the tiny room. Ashamed though she was to admit it Abraham discovered he? (here, too engrossed in the perusal of one of the old letters to have heeded his creaking steps upon the stairs.

I Kneeling Before a Time-Worn Trunk. even to herself, she missed that ample and cozy chamber which she bad so freely surrendered to Abraham and his wife. She missed it, as she felt they must crave their very own fireside; and the thought that they missed the old homestead made her yearn for the home that she might have had— the home that she still might have. Again she brought her eyes back to the portrait; and now she saw, not the characteristics which had always made it seem Impossible for her and Samuel to jog tegether down life's road, but the great truth that the face was honest and wholesome while the eyes looked back into hers with the promise of an unswerving care and affection. The neit morning found Blossy kneeling before a plump little leatherbound, time-worn trunk which she kept under the eaves of the kitchen chamber. The trunk was packed hard with bundles of old \etters. Some her younger .fingers had tied with violet ribbon; tome they had bound with pink; others she had fastened together with white silk cord, and there were more and more bundles, both slim and stout, which Blossy had distinguished by some special hue of ribbon in the Ions *go, each tint marking adlfferent suitor's missives. To her still sentimental eye the colors remained unfaded, and each weald bring to her mind instantly the picture of the writer as he had been in the golden days. But save to Blossy's eye alone there were* no longer any rainbow tints in the little old trunk; for every ribbon and every oord had faded Into that musty* yellow brown which is dyed by the passing ot many edged, crackly billet-doux with a start, and dropped the envelope to the floor. For the moment, so deep in reminiscence was she, she thought Captain Darby himself had surprised her; then, recognizing Abe and recalling that Samuel's winter visits were invariably paid in the afternoon, she broke into a shamefaced laugh. "Oh, is that you, Brother Abe? Don* tell the others what you found me doing. These," with a wave of her delicate, blue-veined hands over the trunk and Its contents, "are all old love letters of mine. Do you think I'm a silly old goose to keep them cluttering around so long?" "Wa'al"—Abe with an equally deprecatory gesture indicated Angy's horsehair trunk in the far corner of the loft—"yew ain't no more foollsher, I guess, over yer old trash 'n me an' Angy be a-keepln' that air minln' stock of mine. One lot is wuth 'bout as much as t'other." Recovering the envelope that she had dropped, he equinted at the superscription. "Not meanln' ter be inquisitive or personal. Sister Blossy," a teasing twinkle appearing in his eye, "but this looks dretful familiarity, this here handwrltin' does. When I run the beach—yew'vs* heard me tell of the time I was on the life-savin* crew over ter Bleak Hill fer a spell—my cap'n he had a fist jest like that. Useter make out the spickest, spanneet reports. Lemme see," the twinkle deepening, "didn't the gals say yew was a 'spectln' somebody terday? Law, I ain't saw Cap'n Sam'l fer ten year or more. I guess on these here poppin' trips o' hls'n he hain't wastin' time on no men-folks. But, Blossy, yew better give me a chance ter talk to him this arternoon, an' mebbe I'll speak a good word fer yer." Blossy, not alwayB keen to eee a joke, and with htr vanity now in the ascendent, felt the color rise into her withered cheek. "Oh, you needn't take the trouble to speak a good word for me. Any man who could ever write a letter like this doesn't need to be coaxed. Just listen: The man you take for a mate Is the luckiest dog In the Whole round world. I'd rather be him than king of all the countries on earth. I'd rather be him than strike a gold mine reaching from here to China. I'd rather be him than master of the finest vessel that ever sailed blue water. That's what I would. Why, the man who couldn't be happy with you would spill tears all over heaven. Blossy's cheek was still flushed, but no longer with pique. Her voice quavered and broke; and finally there fell upon the faded page of the letter two sparkling tears. Abraham shuffled uncomfortably from one foot to the other; then, muttering something about the "pesky apple hook/' went scuffing across the floor In the direction of the chimney. Blossy, however, called him back. "I was crying, Brother Abe, because the man 1 did take for a mate once was not happy, and—and neither was I. I was utterly wretched; so that I've always felt I never cared to marry again. And—Samuel's wig is always slipping down over one eye, and I simply cannot endure that trick he has of carrying his head to one side, as If he had a left-handed spell of the mumps. It nearly drives me frantic. "Brother Abe, now tell me honestly: do you think he would make a good husbandr Abe cleared his throat Blossy was In earnest Blossy could not be laughed at She was his friend, and' Angy's friend; and she had come to him as to a brother for advice. He, too, had known Samuel as man to man, which was more than any of the sisters could say. Stroking his beard thoughtfully, therefore, he seated himself upon a. convenient wooden cheat, while Blossy slipped her old love letter in and out of the envelope, with that essentially feminine manner of weighing and considering. "Naow," began Abe at length, "this is somep'n that requires keerful debatin'. Fust off, haowsomever, yew must remember that wigs an' ways never made a man yit Ei I riccoiec' Sam'l, he-walT pooty good es men go. I should say he wouldn't be any more of a risk tew yew than I was tew Angy; mebbe less. He's got quite a leetle laid by, I understand, an' a tidy story-an'-a-half house, an' front stoop, an', by golly, can't he cook! He's a splendid housekeeper." "Housewifery," ^ remarked Blossy sagely, as she began to gather her missives together, "is an accomplishment to be scorned in a young husband, but not in an old one. They say there hasn't been a woman inside Samuel's house since he built it, but it's as clean ag soap and eand can make it" "I bet yer," agreed Abe. "Hain't never been no fly inside It, neither, 1 warrant yer. Fly can't light arter Sam'l's cleanln' up nohaow; he's got ter skate." "He says he built that little house for me," said the old lady, as Bhe closed down the lid of the trunk. There was a wistful note in Blossy's voice, which made Abraham declare with a burst of sympathy: " 'Tain't no disgrace ter git married at no time of life. Sam'l's a good pervider; why don't yew snap him up terday? We'll miss yew a lot; but—" "Here's the apple picker right over your head," interrupted Blossy tartly, and Abe felt himself peremptorily dismissed. * Scarcely had he left the attic, however than she, too, hastened down the steep, narrow stairs. She spent the remaining hours before train time In donning her beautiful lace gown, and in making the woman within it as young and ravishing as possible. And lovely, Indeed, Bloesy looked this day, with a natural flush of excitement on her cheek, a new sparkle in her bright, dark eyes, and with her white hair arranged in a fashion which might have excited a young girl's envy. The hour for the train came and went and, lo! for the first time in the history of twenty years Captain Darby did not appear. Blossy pretended to be relieved, protesting that she was delighted to find! that she would now have an extra! hour In which to ponder the question.] But the second train came and went, and still no Captain Darby. All the afternoon long Blossy wore! her lace gown, thinking although there were no more trains from the east* ward that day, that Samuel would still find his way to her. He might drive, as he usually did In June, or he might even walk from his home at Twin Coves, she said. (TO BE CONTINUED.) UNIFORM MEANT FOR SERVICE Oarb of the Bofctters of "Holy Russia" Is Said to Be the Simplest |n European Armies. It is said that the uniform of the Russian soldier is the simplest field uniform in Europe. In winter a sheepskin coat goes on beneath the gray one. In summer, or during campaigns in-hot climates, the Russians, like the Japanese, fight In white dress. The Russian campaigner marches somewhat heavily laden. He has-his kit-bag with clothing slung over one shoulder, his haversack with two days' rations of bread and salt slung over the other, bis greatcoat strapped under one arm. Including bis water bottle,, arms and ammunition, a section of tent and the uniform be wears, he carries something over 6t pounds. The advantage which offsets the burden is that at a pinch, the Rususian soldier la practically independent of a bag* gage train. He can transport his modest necessities upon his own back.

J McCrann, of Omaha, Neb., says: "As the father of thirteen children I certainly know something about your great medicine, and aside from my own family experience 1 have in my years of practice found Castoria a popular and efficient remedy in almost every home." Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: "The name that your Castoria has made for Itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorsement of the medical profession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse it and believe it an excellent remedy." Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., says: "Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary preparations, but in the case of Castoria my experience, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an exception. I prescribe your Castoria in my practice because I have found It to be a thoroughly reliable remedy for children's complaints. Any physician who has raised a family, as I have, will join me in heartiest recommendation of Castoria."

The wireless outfit on the steamship Imperator comprises three separate stations—one of 15 kilowatts, for long distance work; one of three kilowatts, mainly for communications with vessels at moderate distances, and an emergency station, worked by a powerful storage battery. The main station can exchange signals directly with the large land stations of America or Europe during the whole of the transatlantic voyage, so that the delays involved by relaying messages from ship to ship are avoided. In midocean the ship is in communication with both the German station at Norddeich and the American station at Sayville. The emergency station, intended for use in case of a stoppage* of the ship's dynamo, 1B capable of operating for six hours. Hit Absence Noticed.

Teepie, Pinckney No Decision Reached By the M. E. Church At the meeting held by the members of the M- E. church Tuesday evening it was voted by the congregation to have the official board present the proposition to the quarterly conference regarding ihe union of the two protestant churches. It seems that any business regarding the Methodist church cau only be transacted through one of tae church boards or the quarterly conference. At the metting held by the members of the COD^'I church it was voted unanimously to unite. Grotesque Fashions. The futurist will find It hard to beat the masculine costumes of the later Plantagenet reigns, either in flare of color or in practical awkwardness. There were the peaked shoes, chained to the knees, and the enormous bagpipe shaped sleeves, reaching even to the feet. One practical use was found for these, however. They were called the devil's receptacles, from their convenience to the light fingered. A writer of the time describes the commoners as "besotted in excess of apparel. Some In wide surcoats reaching to their loins, some in a garment reaching to their heels, closed before and sticking out at the sides, so that at the back they make men seem like women." The particolored suits of the period were sprinkled freely with birds, baboons, squirrels, trees and mottoes.—London Spectator. Traps the Robbers. In a Copenhagen bank is an ingenious contrivance for capturing robbers that was devised by one of the clerks. An electric contact is placed behind the bank counter, and if the clerks tread on it the main door from the street to the entrance hall is closed and locked. If the clerks, again tread upon the contact the door between the entrance hall and the office is locked. Thus if the robbers should arrive and summon the clerks to hold up their hands the clerks obey, tread upon the contact and the main door Is locked. The robbers are allowed to take the money, but when they desire to leave they find that the main door is shut and locked, and when they try to return they find the second door also locked, and they are trapped until the police arrive. What 8he Expected. "Look at her/' said the ironmonger, Indicating a departing customer. "She sent her wringer here to be repaired. I promised It her for this week, provided that I could get a certain new part in time from the makers.

Pinckney, Livingston-County, Michigan, Thursday, October 1, 1914 No. 40 ONLY FEW DAYS LEFT OF CONTEST $&&': w- • * * : ' t<; <,. mt •A?-- -«•• s* •• Hustlera Por Piano Must Put In Best W o r k to t h e End.— Pinal Count W i l l Be Held Friday, October 2 3 r d . It is TJme to Get Busy. Now listen! There is absolutely QO truth in the statement that this is the closed season for hunting subscriptions to the Dispatch. The law, (made by the Dispatch,) permits live, active, aggressive contestants to hunt suhscriptious until the close of the contest and there is a bounty on them too. For every new subscription brought in, a bounty of 600 votes in the Dispatch Popular Voting Contest is paid. Some happy young lady is going to march away from the Dispatch office in just a short time wearing the smile that won't •come cff, because that young lady will have won the grand Obermeyer & Sons piano,. There are only a few more days left of this .contest That means that the race still belongs to anybody who has just a little initiative. The fact of the matter is that no one yet has such a start that it could not be easily overcome in a few days of consistent work. This is certainly the most glorious opportunity that the young ladies of this community have ever had. Every contestant now thoroughly understands the rules and methods of securing »subscriptions and the majority of them have settled down in earnest zealouB work that eliminates idle -dreaming and means working for some definite point. The aimless haphazard soliciting has been dropped and a systematic campaign for votes is now in progress. There is no question but what everyone in and around Pinckney has been solicited, or at least has heard about this contest. The better field for operation now lies in the country, as practically every one in town is now a subscriber to the paper—or never will be. The contest department wants to urge on evDry contestant the necessity for making the next three weeks count for all they are worth. The time is growing short and it is only the real hastier who will have much of a show after that time. That is why it will pay to get in the game with all the energy you can command from this f: time until the close. Be sure and have your friends trade with the following merchants who give a 25 vote coupon with -each dollar dish purchase. Have them ask for these coupons and «ave them for you. W, W.

I prepare for blow-outs In the presence of my enemies, I anoint thy tires with patches, My radiator runneth over. Surely, if this thing follows me All the days of my life, Then I shall dwell In the Bug-house forever.

PARIS A8SERTS T H A T WESTERN WING OF T H E GERMANS HAS BEEN FORCED BACK. Berlin Confident That "Siege Guns Will Speedily Compel Surrender of Verdun—Freeh British Troops Take the Place of Exhausted Men on the Firing Line. At the Battle-Front, Sept. 27 (via Paris).—French and British troops, intermingled Turcos and Moors, not only held their own, but caused the strongly re-enforced German western wing to reel backward near St. Quentin and imperiled the German line of communication toward the frontier of Belgium. The German center has been weakened by the rush of troops from that position to meet the threatening movement of the allies and two strong forces were engaged at close quarters between St. Quentin and Tergnier. The following official statement was issued by the official press bureau in Paris: "On our left wing, in the region to the northwest of Noyon, our first lines, having come into collision with superior forces of the enemy, were obliged to yield a little ground. Reenforced by fresh troops, these detachments have vigorously resumed the offensive. The conflict in this region Is taking on a character of especial violence. "At the center there is nothing new. "On our right wing, before the attacks of our troops coming out from Nancy and Toul, the enemy has begun to give way in the southern part of the Woevre district, and is falling back towards Le Rupt-de-Mad. The action continues on the heights of the Meuse. The German forces have been able to penetrate to the vicinity of St. Mihiel, but they were not able to cross the Meuse." Fresh British troops have been landed in France and are being rushed to the firing line to support the exhausted Boldiers who have been under fire continuously for more than a month. The thirteenth day of this special conflict found the French'troops still pressing vigorously against the army of General von Kluck in their efforts to encircle the German right and crush it or force it back. To Shell Verdun With Huge Guns. Berlin, Sept. 27 (via wireless via London).—An official statement given out says: "The siege guns have been taken from Metz to bombard Verdun. The French are striving to prevent the arrival of these guns, but they are steadily approaching nearer. The reduction of Verdun cannot be averted when they reach a position where they can be operated with full effect. Our smaller guns continue their bombardment of the Verdun-Toul line with good effect. "The field engagements in France during the 24 hours ended at midnight have been minor affairs without any important developments. We hold our positions, there being no appreciable change in the lines. "The situation in Belgium and the eastern war theater is unchanged." Strike at General von Kluck. Paris, Sept. 26.—-The bloodiest fighting of the great battle of the Aisne is going on along the German right wing where the British and French are struggling furiously to surround and cut off the army of General von Kluck. The .French have swung round a gigantic circle and are now delivering a series of fierce""attacks upon the soldiers of General von Boehn who are ^defending the Mons route of German communications along a battle front through Combrai, Bouchain, Denain and St. Amand. An official statement announces that the French left wing is making steady progress and that Peronne has been occupied by the French. In an attempt to drive off the French troops who are threatening his line of communication General von Kluck is making a sharp attack upon the French forces at Peronne. Peronne is 17 miles northwest of St. Quentin and more than-70 miles northnortheast of Paris. In its turning movement, therefore, the left wing has advanced about 75 miles since it was driven across the Marne by the swift advance of the German right wing and there forced the Germans to turn to withdraw. The Germans are continuing their terrific attacks against the allies' center, in the vicinity of Reims, in an attempt to pierce it, but the French and the British, who were rushed to that point, are holding valiantly. A general of General von Kluck's staff, who was captured in the fighting around Amiens, has been brought to Paris, together with a number of other prisoners. Allies Make Advance. London, Sept. 25.—The great battle between the allies and the Germans continued today without decisive advantage to either side, and military experts here predicted that it may be several more days before the result is made definite. The official announcement made in Paris said that the allies had advanced on the western wing and had repulsed German attacks on the eastern wing. Messages which came in a roundabout way from Berlin asserted that the offensive Bpirit of the allies is weakening, tfnrt the center is retreating, and that the fortress of Verdun is being successfully bombarded. Germans Occupy Cracow. London, Sept. 27.—"That Cracow has been occupied by German troops, that the town has been put under a German military commandant and that the Austrian civil administration has been displaced Is the gist of the latest ad- HELIOGRAPHER OF THE CROWN PRINCE vices received here," says the Petrograd correspondent of the Morning Post. "All the original administration of the town and all civil officials of the Austrian government have left and the residents are fleeing in panic. "The leaders c* the Polish secret committee, which has been in charge of all the Polish volunteer detachments fighting on the Austrian side, also toave left Cracow. The Germans have thrown three army corps into the Cracow district, according to this information, and are bringing more troops in preparation for the expected Russian attack. "Word has been received here that Germany has stopped all traffic on the railways between Berlin and the Geriufp.

AVIATORS CLOSE TO ENGLAND Dropping of Bomb at Boulogne Causes Fear in London—General Summary of War News. German aviators, flying within sight of England, continued their attack on French coast cities and added to the apprehension felt at London that English cities soon may become the targets of their bombs. The attack was made on Boulogne, just across from England at about the ""narrowest part of the channel. About noon Friday a German aeroplane flew over the city and dropped a bomb into a shipbuilding yard. Little property damage was done and no one was injured. New German Loss*8hown. Telegraphing from Amsterdam, the correspondent of the Reuter Telegram company at London says the thirtyfirst German casualty list, carrying a total of about one thousand men killed, wounded and missing, has been given out. It includes the names of twenty-three officers of one regiment who were killed in five days' fighting. British Capture Dutch Liner. The German liner Amsteldijk has been captured by a British cruiser and taken to Queenstown. Ruse Sink Three German Ships. According to a message from Paris to the Central News of London the Russian cruiser Rayan has sunk a German cruiser and two torpedo boats in the Baltic sea. Coming immediately after the loss to the British fleet in the North sea this report of Russian success in the Baltic was joyfully received here. One Shot Fired at Cathedral. The Marconi company of London has received the following wireless from Berlin: "The main army headquarters reports that one mortar shot only was fired by the Germans at the Reims cathedral because it was otherwise impossible to drive away the enemy's .observation post mounted on the structure." Brave Deed of Highlander. A London. Daily Mail dispatch from the battle, front in France says that during the fighting at Soissons one Highlander carried a Maxim x gun whose crew had been killed across a bridge and all alone opened fire on the enemy, who broke and fled before the hail of bullets. The Highlander fell dead from thirty wounds. Belgium Rejects German Peace Offer. The Belgian foreign office says Germany baa approached Belgium with another offer of peace terms, but that King Albert has definitely refused to consider them.

Fort Wayne, Indiana. Sept. 29.—Edwin Denby of Detroit, Albert E. Sleeper of Bad Axe, Henry E. Morton of Muskegon, Henry C. Loveridge of Coldwater and Burt* S. Stratton of Lansing were today elected directors of The Lincoln National Life Insurance Co. of this city, which has over twenty million dollars of life insurance in force. Mr. Denby served three terms in Congress. He i« an attorney, a member of the well-known law firm of Chamberlain, May, Denby and Webster. He is also a Director of the Denby Motor Truck Co. of Detroit, a Director of the National Bank of Commerce and Treasurer of the Hupp Motor Car Co. Mr. Sleeper was formerly Treasurer of State. He is a banker and controls about a dozen banks in the Thumb District. He is also a director in the Merchants National Bank of Detroit. Mr. Morton is President of the Morton Manufacturing Co., manufacturers of large machinery, and President of the State Savings Bank at Muskegon Heights. ' Mr. Loveridge is one of the prominent attorneys of Southern Michigan and a ban*'director. Mr. Stratton is one of the leading life insurance men of the State and is General Agent at Lansing of the Lincoln Life. AH these gentlemen were formerly stockholders in the Michigan State Life Insurance Co. of Detroit, which was consolidated this last summer with the Lincoln Life. *toth companies were splendid life insurance organizations and the consolidation, which was made under the supervision and approval of the Insurance Commissioners of both Michigan and Indiana, has made the Lincoln Life one of the greatest companies in the middle West. It is interesting to read the comments of the leading insurance Journals of the country upon the success of the Lincoln Life: "The Lincoln National is one of the companies that has elicited the admiration of the insurance fraternity, owing ti the high character of its management. It has kept aloof from all schemes and pitfalls, desiring to develop along natural lines. Its team work at the home office and in the field has often been commented on, and is responsible for much of the results it has been able to achieve. UB directors comprise men of high standing and integrity, who are interested in the work of the company. Personnel of the Officers. "Arthur F. Hall, vice-president and general manager, is a man of keen ability, splendid character and extended experience. Franklin B. Mead, secretary and actuary of the Lincoln National, is one of the foremost actuaries in the country, and has done much original work in his line. "Walter T. Shepard, third vice-president and agency manager, Is one of the capable field generals of the West. He is in close touch with the agents, and he enjoys their respect. "The officers of the Lincoln National have been leaders in all movements looking toward reforms in life insurance. Their views on the responsibilities of life company officers have impressed policyholders with the fact that their interests are in safe hands. "The Lincoln National has been consistently progressive. It is one of the choice western companies that is built on bed rock and every piece of material in it is sound."—Western Underwriter, Chicago, May 14, 1914. "Among the companies of its-home state, the Lincoln National Life last year led in net gain in insurance, and of the fifty-one life companies now in business out of the sixty organized throughout the country during 1905, 1906 and 1907, the Lincoln National stood second in net increase in insurance in force during 1913. The company is truly a conspicuous success, and this is the more to its credit as it came into being at a time when the life insurance business was literally 'all she* to pieces.' "Offfnlied under the compulsory legal reserve law of Indiana, it more than complies therewith, its deposit with the Auditor of State always exceeding by a comfortable margin its policyholders' reserve liability. Its management la competent and efficient and deserving oLabsolute confidence.

Destined to Be a Giant "They have all been leaders in alt reform movements in life insurance and they are men whose first ceaceem Is the interests of policyholders. Wnder their management and with itsadded strength, the Lincoln National is destined to be one of the giante ef the West."—Indicator, Detroit, May 14, 1914. The addition of these five big men of Michigan to the already strong board of directors will doubly assure the 7,000 Michigan policyholders ef the company that their interests will be carefuly looked after. The financial statement ef this splendid company, with over twenty million dollars of insurance in force, will be found elsewhere in this issue. —Adv. An Immense Help.

Miss Farmer is a daughter of representative Farmer of this district, Mr. Dancer ia a son of W. J. Dancer of Stookbridge and is well and favorably known in this section. His many friends extend hearty congratulations. Boys, when you speak of your father don't call him the 'old man.' Of course you are older now than when you were taught to call him "father." You are much smarter than you were then, you are much more manly looking, your, clothes fits you better, your hat has a modern shape and your hair is combed differently, in snort, you are 'flyer* than you were then. Your father has a last year's coat, a two-year old hat and a vest of still older pattern. He can't write such an elegant note as yon can and all that, but don't call him "old man." Call him father. For years he has been hustling aronnd to get things together, he has been held to the thorny path of uphill industry, and the brightest half of his life has gone from him forever. H e loves yon though he goes along without saying much about it, therefore be not so ungrateful—Ex. Edward VanHorn was a Howell visitor Monday. E. E. Hoyt and wife spent Tuesday in Jackson. Mrs. M.

During their fctay here both Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell have made many friends who will be sorry to have them leave Pinckney. The hand of welcome ia extended to the new minister. A farmer tells us that he has practically rid his farm of gophers by the use of gasoline. He carries a bottle and a bunch of cotton and when he sees a gopher run into a hole he pours some gasoline upon a wad of cotton and places it at the month of the hole and covers the opening with dirt. The gas fumes are heavier than the air and it will go to the bottom of the hole In an attempt to get air, the gopher comes to the top of the hole and the gas does the rest. Remove cotton in about half an hour and Mr. Gogher will ba dead. The plan will apply to many other burrowing animals. Eighteen bads of "boosters" for the Fowlerville F a i r passed through this village Tuesday afternoon. They circled twice around the public square tooting horns aud creating all sorts of excitement among onr townspeople. If the enthusiasm they put forth is a forerunner of the fair proper, which it undoubtedly is, every man, women and child should be there. Two excellent selections were rendered by the Fowlerville band which were greatly appreciated by the crowd. Fowlerville is a bustling business town and a mighty good time is always granted attendants at their annual fair.

A pathologist of standing inveighs against the "self made man" in terms that will be surprising to many. "The self made man," he says, "la often in the process of degeneration, and the first evidence of degeneracy in a family is the selfishness and meanness or the cunning, avarice and moral guile by which the self made man succeeds in amassing a fortune for his still more degenerate children to spend In gratifying their selfish desires." There is another side to the matter, and Thoreau saw it when he said that the man who had acquired wealth would Insist on having bis sons educated, and thus he would become the real founder of a family.—Springfield Republican.

The Peruvians are a proud, Imperial race, living amid the grandest scenery of tbe western hemisphere and holding high Ideals of what is best in education* and the unbougbt grace of life. On the great country estates there is much of the fine tradltlonandchlvalrous sentiment that came from the best people of Castile and Aragon. The Indians of the high plateaus are a unique reminder of a civilization that bouts geoned centuries before tbe face of the white man had blossomed like a flower la; the western forests. The immemorial records of a civilization that vanished in the midst of man's earliest recollections are faintly suggested in splendid ruins among sublime scenes. The name and fame of the brilliant men who built the walls and temples of Guzco are lost, and all we know of the wonder and the charm of that forgotten culture in the Andes is found in the pathetic ruins of cities that are half as old as recorded time,—Peter MacQueen in National Magazine. Unwritten Law of the Sea. Here is one of the unwritten laws of the sea which we think could be repealed to advantage. It Is that which requires the captain of a ship to stay on the bridge during fog or very bad weather, no matter how long It continues. It is a fairly common thing to read in dispatches that the captain of this or that ship had been on the bridge for twenty-four or forty-eight or even sixty hours at a stretch because of storm or fog. Why should this be practiced? The most rugged man alive cannot be as alert, mentally and physically, after twenty-four hours of exposure as he was when he went on dnty. He cannot be as competent to render quick decisions—such, for instance, as an impending collision might call for—as a man who was un fatigued. The average transatlantic passenger, we fancy, would much pre fer to trust his life In an emergency to a fresh chief officer than to a jaded captain.—Marine News.

The Slovaks (Hungary) are a very peaceful, law abiding community, but there are probably black sheep among their number, and In front of a church at Postyen may be seen an ancient stone pillar, reminiscent of the days when punishment was meted out in much the same way as it was in England in those days. Fastened to this pillar in the center is a large iron clasp, and at the base two smaller ones close together. These clasps fitted around the waists and ankles of the offender, and when a man or woman had stolen something he or she was locked to this post on a Sunday and compelled to hold In the hands whatever had been stolen. Every Slovak attends church on Sundays, from which It may be gathered that this public-exposure was no small ordeal The post bears a terse Inscription, the translation of which is: "I do not ask you to come, but if you come I receive you.*—Wide World Magazine. Britain's Standing Army, The British standing army is a much more modern Institution than most people imagine. It dates from 1646, when the famous "new model" was established by act of the long parliament and maintained In existence notil the restoration. This army, which was organized by Cromwell, consisted of some 80,000 men and was probably the most effective army that England has ever possessed. But the cost was so great that on bis restoration Charles II. agreed to its abandonment, except a bodyguard: or household brigade of 5,000 sanctioned by parliament; which Included Monk's Coldstream regiment and two troops of cavalry raised by Charles himself, which formed the originals or the present Life guards.— London Standard.

Terror ol "what folks will n ^ y " sends them along hy-paths to the gate\of the Old Ladies' home. Miss Abigail, ink tron of t h e Old Ladies' home, hears 01 the ill fortune of the old couple. She tell* the other old ladles, and Blossy, who h a s \ paid a double fee for the only double bedchamber, voices the unanimous verdict t h a t Abe must be taken in with his wife Abe a w a k e n s next morning to find t h a t She is "Old Lady No. 31." T h e old ladles give him such a warm welcome t h a t he is made to feel a t home a t once. "Brother •Abe" expands under the w a r m reception !0f the sisters, and a reign of peace begins in the Old Ladies' home. Abe is the center of tlie community. T h e semi-annual visit of Blossy's aged lover. Capt. Samuel Darby, Is due. Abe advises h e r to m a r r y him. F o r the first time the captain fails to appear. CHAPTER VII—Continued. At night, however, she was obliged to admit that he could not be coming; iand then, quivering with honest anxl- ;ety for her old friend, Blossy dipped into her emergency fund, which she 'kept in the heart of a little pink china pig on a shelf in her room—a pink china pig with a lid made of stiff ;black h\?ir standing on edge in the middle of hifi hack—and sent a telegram to Captain Darby, asking if he were nick. < The answer came back slowly by mail, to find Blossy on the verge of a nervous collapse, under the care of all the women In the house. j That letter Blossy never showed to Brother Abe. nor to any one sfjfe. Neither did she treasure it in the sSnitimental trunk beneath the attic eaves. The letter ran: l>ar Betsy Ann: I never felt better In 'my life. Ain't been sick a minute. Just :made UD my mind I was a old fool, and {was going to quit. If you change your Indentions at any time. Just drop me a postal. As ever, SAM'L DARBY. ESQ. "This, Captain Darby, makes your rejection final," vowed Blossy to herself, as she tore the note into fragments and drowned them in the spirits of lavender with which the sisters Ibad been seeking to BOO the her distracted nerves. CHAPTER VIII. The Anniversary. About this time Blossy developed a tendency to draw Brother Abraham aside at every opportunity, convenient or inconvenient, in order to put such questions as these to him: 1 "Didn't you say it is fully thirty-five years since you and Captain Darby were on the beach together? Do you think he has grown much older? Had he lost his hair then? Did he care ifor the opposite sex? Was he very ibrave—or would you say more brave than stubborn and contrary? Isn't it a blessing that I never married him?/' Fearful of the ridicule-of the sisters, IBloesy was always careful to conduct 'these inquiries in whispers, or at least in undertones with a great observance of secrecy, sometimes stopping Abe on. the stairs, sometimes beckoning him to her side when she was busy about her household tasks on the pretense of requiring his assistance. On one occasion she even went so far as to inveigle him into holding a skein of wool about his clumsy hands, while she wound the violet worsted Into a ball, and delicately Inquired if he believed Samuel spoke the truth when ha protested that he had never paid court to any other woman. Alas, Blossy'* frequent tete-a-tete* with the amused but sometimes Impatient Abraham started an exceedingly foolish suspicion. When, asked the sisters of one another, did Abe ever help any one, save Blossy, shell dried beans or pick over prunes? When had he ever been known to hold wool for Angy's winding? Not once since wooing time, 1 warrant you. What could this continual ^hobnobbing and going off into corners mean, except— flirtation? Ruby Lee whispered K first into Aunt Nancy's good ear. Aunt Nancy indulged In four pinches 'of snuff in rapid succession, sneeted an amasing number of times, and then acridly informed Ruby Lee that she was a "Jeal- MS car* and always had been one. However, Aunt Nancy could not refrain from carrying the gossip to Miss Bnier adding that she herself had been of Abe's behavior from the "Qfr, no, no?' cried the shocked and Sfkrfaktog spinster. "And Angy so ' all the Urns? I dont believe But whisper, whisper, buzz, buzz, went the gossip, until finally it reached the pink little ears at the side of Miss Abigail e generously proportioned head. The pink ears turned crimson, likewise the adjoining cheeks, and Miss Abigail panted with righteous indignation. --— "It all comes of this plagued old winter time," she declared, sharply biting her thread, for she was mending a tablecloth. "Shet the winders on summer, an' yew ketch the tail of slander in the latch every time. Naow, hear one word about this 'tarnal hness comln' to Angy's ears, or er Abe's, or Blosey's either, fer !a,t matter, we'll afl have to eat off'n oil-cloth Sundays, the same as weekdays,, until I see a more Christian sperit In the house." She^ave the Sunday damask across her lap a pat which showed she was in earnest; and the rebuked sisters glanced at one another, as if to say: "Suppose the minister should walk in some Sabbath afternoon and find oil-cloth on the table, and ask the reason why?" They one and all determined to take Aunt Nancy's advice and "sew a button on their lips." Fortunately, too, the February thaws had already set in, and the remainder \ sianae '^fat n Was Careful to Conduct These Inquiries In Whispers. of the winter passed without any severe strain on the "buttonholes." And at length the welcome spring began to peep forth, calling to the old folks, "Come out, and grow young with the young year!" With the bursting forth of the new springtide the winter's talk seemed to drop as a withered and dead oak leaf falls from its winter-bound branches; and Abe stood once more alive to the blessings of renewed approval. Angy went out of doors with Miss Abigail, and puttered around among the flowers as it they were her own, thanking God for Abe'e increasing popularity in the same breath that she gave thanks for the new buds of the spring. The anniversary of the Roses' entrance into the Home drew nearer, and Blossy suggested that the best way to celebrate the event would he by means of a "pink tea." Neither Angy nor Abe, nor in fact half the sisters, had any clear conception of what a tinted function might he; but they one and all seised upon Blossy's idea as if it were a veritable inspiration, and for the time Jealousies were forgotten, misunderstandings erased. ^ Such preparations as were made for that teal The deaf-and-dumb gardener was sent with a detachment of small boys to fetch from the wayside and meadows armfuls of wild roses for the decorations. Miss Abigail made pink icing for the cake. Ruby Lee hung bleeding-hearts over the dining-room doe*. Aunt Nancy resurrected from the bottom of her trunk a white lace cap with a rakish-looking pink bow tor an adornment, and fastened it to her scant gray hairs in honor of the occasion. Blossy turned her pink china pig, bis lid left upstair*, into a sugar bowk Pink, pink, pink, everywhere; even in Angy's proud cheeks I Pink, and pink, and pink! Abe used to grow dizzy, afterward, trying to recall the various pink articles which graced that tea But most delightful surprise of all was his anniversary gift, which was slyly slipped to his place after the discuseion of the rose-colored strawberry gelatin, it was a square, five-pound parcel wrapped in pink tissue paper, tied with pink string, and found to contain so much Virginia tobacco, which Blossy had inveigled an old southern admirer into sending her for "charitable purposes." , * After the presentation of this valuable gift. Abraham felt that the time had come for him to make a speech— practically his maiden speech. He said at the beginning, more suavely at hie ease than he would have believed possible, secure of sympathy and approbation, with Angy's gtowing old eyes upon her prodigy, that all the while he had been at the Home, he had never before felt the power to express his gratitude for the welcome which had been accorded him—the welcome which seemed to wear and wear, as if it were all wool and a yard wide, and could never wear out. The old ladies nodded their heads In approval of this, every face beaming: but as the speech went on the others perceived that Abe had singled out Blossy for special mention—blind, blind Abraham—Blossy, who had firBt proposed admitting him into this paradise; Blossy, who had given up her sunny Bouth chamber to his comfort arid Angy's; Blossy, who had been as a "guardeen angel" to him; Blossy, who as a fitting climax to all her sisterly attentions had given him today this wonderful, wonderful pink tea. and "this five hull pound o' Virginny terbaccer." He held the parcel close to his bosom, and went on, still praising Blossy—this innocent old gentleman —heedless of Angy's gentle tug at his coat-tail; while Blossy buried her absurdly lovely face in the pink flush of a wild-rose spray, and the other old ladies stared from him to her, their faces growing hard and cold. When Abraham' sat down, aglow with pride over his oratorical triumphs, his chest expanded, his countenance wrinkled into a thousand guilelees, grateful smiles, there was absolute silence. Then Blossy, her head still bowed as if in shy. confusion, began to clap her hands daintily together, whereat a few of the others joined her half-heartedly. A sense of chill crept over Abraham. Accustomed as a rule to deferential attention, did he but say good morning, by no means aware that his throne had toppled during the winter, he was still forced to perceive that something had gone amis*. As always when aught troubled his mind, "father" turned to Angy; but Instead of his composed and resourceful little wife he found a scared-faced and trembling woman. Angy had suddenly become conscious of the shadow of the green-eyed monster. Angy's loyal heart was crying out to her mate: "Don't git the sisters daown on yer, Abe, 'cuz then, mebbe, yew'U lose your hum!" But poor Angeline'e lips were so stiff with terror over the prospect of the' county house for her husband, that she could not persuade them to speech. Abraham, completely at sea, turned next to her whom he had called his guardian angel; but Blossy was rising from ber seat, a baffling smile of expectancy on her face, the rose spray swinging in her delicate band as If to the measure of some music too far back in youth for anyone else to bear. Blossy had worn that expectant look all day. She might have been delightedly hugging to herself a secret which she had not shared even with the trusted Abraham. She was gowned in her yellow, lace, the beauty and grace of which had defied the changing fashions as Bloasy's remarkable elegance of appearance had defied the passing of the years. "Brother Abe,"—in her heedlessness of the mischief she had wrought, Blossy seemed almost to sing-—-"I never shall forget your speech as long as I live. Will you excuse me now?" She swept out of the door, her skirts rustling behind her. Abe collected himself so far ae to bow in the direction she had taken; then with lamblike eyes of inquiry met the exasperated glances cast upon him. Not ji sister moved or spoke. They all sat as if .glued to their chairs, in a silence that was fast growing appalling. Abe turned his head and looked behind his chair for an explanation; but nothing met his eye, save the familiar picture on the wall of two white kittens playing in the midst of a huge bunch of purple lilacs. Then there broke upon the stillness the quavering old voice of . Aunt Nancy, from her place opposite Abe's at the head of the board. The aged dame bad her two hands clasped before her on the edge of the table, vainly trying to steady their palsied shaking. Her eyes, bright, piercing, age-defying, she fixed upon the bewildered Abraham with a look of deep and sorrowful reproach. Her unsteady head bobbed backward and forward with many an accusing nod, arid the cap with its rakish pink bow bobbed backward and forward too. Abe watched her, fascinated, unconsciously wondering, even in the midst of his disquietude, why the cap did not slide off her bald scalp entirely. To his amazement, she addressed not himself, but Angy. "Sister Rose, yew kin leave the room." Implacable purpose spoke in Aunt Nancy's tone. Angy started, looked up, going first red and then white; but she did not move. 8he opened her lips to speak. "I don't want ter hear a word from yew, nor anybody else," sternly interposed Aunt Nancy. "I'm old enough ter be yer mother. Go upstairs!" Angy's glance sought Miss Abigail, but the matron's eyes avoided hers. The little wife sighed, rose reluctantly, dropped her hand doubtfully reassuring on Abe's shoulder, and then went obediently to the door. From the threshold she looked wistfully back; but an imperious wave from Aunt Nancy banished her altogether, and Abe found himself alone —not with the sisters whom he loved, but with 28 hard-visaged strangers. (TO B E CONTINUED.) KNEW HOW TO VALUE BOOK Petrarch's Acknowledgment of Gift a' Proof That Present Had Been Worthily Placed. In the year 1364 Boccaccio presentee to his friend Petrarch a copy of Saint Augustine's "Commentary on the Psalms." The poet thereupon sent to the author of the "Decameron," a letter written in Latin—part of which may be translated thus: "You have overwhelmed me with joy by a present magnificent and rare. Henceforth I shall swim more surely on the ssa of David. Into the midst of this troubled sea you have sent me a very sturdy ship and a clever pilot, Saint Augustine, whose genius is divine. I have received it with joy and astonishment, and have said to myself: 'Laziness, get thee behind me; if ever a moment of leisure remains to me, this gift shall All it Here U an Illustrious guest that must receive the bjest fare, and will not let me steep a wink o' nights. In vain will ye pale and close, 0 eyes of mine; ye must watch and sleep not; in vain shall ye think of rest, for we must labor/H In those days the gift of a good book was a gift Indeed, comments Harper's Weekly.

He tOW me he is determined to make A noise in the world." "Then the only way he can ever do U Is to cut out his muffler." DAY OF THE SMALL INVESTOR Wiser Than the Speculator Is He Who Puts His Money Into Bonds That Work for Him. Of course, there are those who like to run the risk of speculation. Not infrequently some one writes me that be has a certain amount of, money with which he would like to speculate and that he will not complain if he loses. I don't encourage speculation,^ecause I am not a believer in it, yet I recognise that man is a horn speculator. One will speculate in real estate, another in cotton, corn, of! or cheese. The woman who goer to the bargain counter and, because something is cheap, buys it, though she does not need it, expects that she will need i t some day and she take* that chance. In other words, she speculates. In these days when $100 bonds of th* best kind are so-freely offered, and when a person can buy a single share of the most profitable railroad and industrial corporations just as readily as a big investor can buy 100 or 1,000 shares, it is not surprising that there are more small investors than ever before. They are scattered an over the country. Many a farmer, clerk or workman in the factory has quietly stowed away a few shares of stock* or a few ftlfc), $6*0 or $1,000 bonds. They are working for him night and day and paying him his interest regularly every six months and thus adding to bis sior*v~Jasp*r i n Leslje's.

Congressman William H. Murray, on his return from a vacation in the heart of the New England country* said in Tishomingo: "The progress of the country Is astonishing. The farmer of today drives his motor car, smokes his cigarette in a long amber tube, and, over his after-dinner coffee, listens to Caruso, singing the 'Star Song' from 'Tosca' on the phonograph, or hears his wife rendering on the player-piano Grieg'e 'Peer Gynt' suite. "My New England farmer host, in answer to my compliments, said, yes, things had changed on the farm, and, to accent this change, he told a story -—a story of the past. "In the general store of the village, he began, the general storekeeper took a chew of tobacco and said: " 'Thet thar new preacher of ourn is certainly a dude. Gosh hang my buttons ef he don't comb out his whiskers every mornin'. I got it straight from the hired gal.' "Everybody stared at the general storekeeper in astonishment before this news.

V;iv* Paris—Desperate attempts made by the Germans on the western end of the long line of battle to break through the allies' forces which are engaged In a turning movement have resulted in the most furious fighting which has taken place since the beginning of the campaign.. After fighting without respite night and day, corps after corps bf Germans was hurled against the flower of the French and English armies, only to be thrown back. The infantry bore the brunt of the incessant fighting, but the artillery of both armies continued throughout 24 hours to bombard each other's positions. Hand-to-hand combats occurred at many points and bayonet were used freely. The French Colonial infantry, most of whose men were many medals for bravery displayed in colonial campaigns, was to the fore, and beside these men fought the black Sengalese troops, while further along the line the greatest determination. French 8how Great Courage. The French. troops showed more than their accustomed dash in attacks; everywhere acts of wonderful courage were performed. The cavalry also participated in the engagements at many points, the allies' horses having enjoyed a long rest which enabled this arm of the service to distinguish itself. The famous Scots Greys, finding that the color of their horses offered a prominent mark for the German riflemen, had dyed their mounts brown. * Another prominent French officer, General Marquet has met death on the field. At Nubecourt, home of the parents of President Poincare, the Germans broke open the Poincare family vault, it is reported, and buried a number of their dead there. The Germans placarded the town or Valenciennes, demanding from the mayors of neighboring communes lists of the available supplies of clothing and food. Big Battle On East Prussia. London—A dispatch from Petrograd says that a decisive battle is imminent on the border of East Prussia. The Germans are being heavily re* inforced. The armies are in close touch along the whole western line from near Meml, in the north, to the frontier of the government of Kalisch. Other dispatches from Petrograd report that fierce fighting still goes on in Gallcia, though Cracow, towards which the Russian hosts have been marching ever since Przemysl was invested and the communications cut, has not yet been attacked. To the north the German invasion is assuming vaster proportions, notwithstanding the Russian war office insists that the Germans are being repulsed at the frontier. It is estimated here that the German front extends from the Baltic coast to the southern boundary of Silesia, a distance of about 400 miles. What opposition the Germans have met is believed to have been little more than a cavalry screen. The fighting centered again along the river Niemen, from Drukenik% in SuwalU, Russian Poland, to Sopotxkin. The official statement issued at Petrograd said that the German artillery had been unable to assume the offensive at SopotzUn and that their retreat was more or Jess general. s, BRIEF NOTES OF WAR Durable Snow.

Pinckney, Livingston County, Michigan, Thursday, October 8, 1914 No. 41 Dispatch Contest Closes Friday, October 23 Only a P e w Days In Which to Work forthe beautiful piano —bast Struggle for Capital P r i s e Now at Its Helght,- Many other valuable prizes There is now but a few more days in which the candidates engaged in the popular voting contest have to work for the several prizes offered. The voting comes to an end-Friday, October 23 at three o'clock,. and immediately thereafter the count will be commenced, to see who shall be declared the winner of the splendid Obermeyer piano and the other '•beautiful and useful articles offered to those who are makiug an effort to land the premiums. It is not believed by those who have given the matter careful thought tliafrany particular person has the grand prize cinched at the present time, but there are several in the race who have a good chance to land it if they will only hustle. If you have not yet seen the fine piano offered in this contest go to Nellie Gardner's Millinery store and take a look. Many of our citizens have examined the instrument as to its quality and appearance and there is yet the first one to say that it is not a fine one. It is of a plain rich mahogany, and a prettier piano was never unloaded at Pinckney. Musicians of this section have tested it as to its quality of tone and volume and every one of them says it is fine as silk. There are several young ladies who appear to have the best of the contest but none of them has a sure cinch on being the ultimate owner of the first prize. If one of these contestants who is way down the list should take it in to her head that she was going to win the big premium, she could do so. She would have to do some work to make it, but that was what was expected when the contest opened. Several bunches of seven new subscribers or renewals in groups of seven would put the lowest candidate in the race up among the leaders. For those who .wish to vote without any competitor seeing them, we desire to state that cash with your subscription, telling where the paper is to be sent and to whom the voteB shall be given, can be placed in an envelope and deposited.in the bank. The judges will open these envelopes at the Dispatch office and count the votes Miss Madeline Bowman was in the lead at the last count. Several others are well to the front and are putting forth every effort on the home stretch to win the ooveted prize. Either of these ladies can land* the prize, if they will Jake the time to get out and *olioifc new subscriptions and renewals* Be sore and have yonr friends trade with the following merchants who give a 25 vote coupon with ^ach dollar cash purchase. Have them ask for these coupons and jave them for yon. W.W.Barnard Dinkel k Dnnbar Monks Bros. Teeple Hdw. Co. Mrtv JL tf. Utfoy Jca.Mtytf and stand in the order named.

What Editors Know Many people think editors don't know much. The trouble is, they known a lot of stuff that they dare not tell. They know »who drinks and they known the ladies who deviate from the straight and narrow path of rectitude and the boys who smoke in alleys and dark places and the girls who are out auto riding till the roosters crow for daylight. They know the fellow who can't get trusted for a tobacco sack full of salt. They could ^guess why some fellows are as they are and they can closely guess what they do to make themselves so. They know enough to make one of the red-hottest, rip snorting, high geared, tripleaction chainlighting editions you ever read but they also know it is best for the community and them. selves to let the law take care of humanity's development and publish only such news as will do to read in the house* Editors generally pursue this policy and thereby live longer and get more enjoyment out of life. A gentleman is a man, a man who is clean inside and out side who neither looks up to the rich nor down to the poor; who can win withont bragging; who is considerate to women, and children and old people;who is too brave to He, too generous to cheat, and too sensible to loaf who takes his share of the world's good and lets other people have theirs.—Ex.

Their household goods sold, the $100 auction money, all they have left, will place Abe in the Old Man's home, or Anj?y In the Old Lady's home. Buth are self-sacrificing but Abe decides: "My dear, this is the fust time I've had a chance to take the wust of it." The old couple bid good-by to the little house. Terror of "what folks will say" sends them along by-paUjs to the gate of the Old Ladies' home. Miss Abigail, matron of the Old Ladies' home, hears of th« ill fortune of the old couple. She tells the other old ladies, and Blossy, who has paid a double fee for the only double bedchamber, voices the unanimous verdict that Abe must be taken in with his wife. Abe awakens next morning to find that he Is "Old Lady No. 31." The old ladles eve him such a warm welcome that he made to feel at home at once. "Brother Abe" expands under the warm reception of the sisters, and a reign of peace begins in the Old Ladles' hbme. Abe is the center of the community. The semi-annual visit of Bossy's aged lover, Capt. Samuel Darby, Is due. Abe advises her to marry him. For the first time the captain fails to appear. Blossy consults Abe so often regarding Darby, his old captain in the life-saving service, that gossip begins to buss. At the feast in celebration of the anniversary of the Roses' arrival at the home, Abe lauds Blossy in his speech, and Angle is sent from the room. CHAPTER IX. A.Winter Butterfly. "Cap'n Rose," began Aunt Nancy. Brother Abe pricked up his ears at the formal address. "Cap'n Rose," she . repeated, deliberately dwelling on the title. "I never believe ii/callin' a man tew account In front of his wife. It gives him somebody handy ter blame things on tew jest like ole Adam. Naow, look a-here! What I want is ter ask yew jest one question: Whar, whar on 'arth kin we look fer a decent behavin' ole man ef not in a Old Ladies' hum? Would yew—" she exhorted earnestly, pointing her crooked forefinger at him. "Would yew—" Abraham caught his breath. Beads of sweat had appeared on his brow. He broke in huskily: "Wait a minute, Aunt Nancy. Jest tall me what I've been an' done." The ladies glanced at one another, contemptuous, incredulous smllee on their faces, while Aunt Nancy almost wept at his deceltfulness. "Cap'n Rose," Bhe vowed mournfully, "I've lived in this house fer many, many years, an' all the while I been here I never heard tell o' a breath o' scandal ag'in' the place until yew come an' commenced ter kick up yer heels." Lazy Daisy, who had long been an Inmate, also nodded her unwieldy head In confirmation, while a row murmur of assent arose from the others. Abraham could only pass his hand over his brow, uneasily shuffle his maligned heels over the floor and await further developments; for he did not have the slightest conception as to "what they were driving at." ' "Cap'n Rose," the matriarch proceeded, as in the earnestness of her indignation ehe arose, trembling, In her seat and stood with her palsied and shaking hands on the board, "Cap'n Rose, yer conduct with this here Mis' Betsey Ann Blossom has been somethin' reediculousl It's been disgraceful IV Aunt Nancy sat down, Incongruously disreputable in appearance, her pink bow having slipped down over her right ear during the harangue. Over the culprit's countenance light had dawned, but. shame to tell! it was a light not wholly remorseful. Then silent laughter shook the old man's shoulders, and then-—could it be?— there crept about his lips and-eyes a . smile of superbly masculine conceit The sisters were fighting over him. Wouldn't mother be amused when he should tell her what all this fuss was about "Now, kindly, short-sighted Miss Abigail determined that it was time tor the matron's voice to be heard. "Of course, Brother Abe, we understand perfectly that yew never stopped ter take Inter consideration haow suaeeptible some folk* is made." , There being plain evidence from 4 Ape's blank expression that he did not eadcrstand the meaning of the word,, Baby Lee hastened to explain. "Bteeeptible is the same as flightyheaded. Blossy allers was a fool over anything that wore breeches." Abe pushed his chair back from the table and crossed his legs comfortably, for hint all the chill had gone out of the air. Suppose that, there was something in this? An old, old devil of vanity came back to the aged husbandw heart He-recalled that he had ^ been somewhat of a beau before he .- learned *he Jer of loving Angy. More than 'one- Long Island lassie had *"• thrown hereeK at-his head. Of course Blossy would "get over" this; and. knew that his heart was hers as a*4t hadiwen the day he purchased his wedding-beaver; but Abe could not refrain from a chuckle of complacent amusement as he stroked hie beard. His very evident hardness of heart so horrified the old ladies that they all began to attack him at once. "Seems ter me I'd have the decency ter, show some shame 1" grimly avowed Sarah Jane. Abe could not help it. He sputtered. Even Miss Abigail's, "Yew were a stranger an' we took yew in" did not sober him. "Ef any one o' my husbands had acted the way you've acted, Abe Rose," began Mrs, Homan. "Poor leetle Angy," broke In the gentle Mise Ellie pityingly. "She must 'a' lost six pounds." Abraham's mobile face clouded over. "Angy?" he faltered. "Yew don't mean that Angy—" Silence again fell on the group, while every glance was fastened on Abraham. "See here," he flashed his faded blue eye. "Angy's got more sense than that!" No one answered, but there was a significant shrugging of shoulders and lifting of eyebrows. Abraham was tsfi-/ (^^^ KI^U •v-'. No One Moved to See Them Off. distressed and concerned enough now. Rising from his place he besought the sisters: "Yew don't think Angy's feelin's have been hurt—dew yew, gals?" Their faces softened, their figures relaxed, the tide of feeling changed in Abraham's favor. Miss Ellie spoke very softly: "Yew know that even 'the Lord thy God Is a jealous God.' " Abraham grasped the back of hie chair for support, his figure growing limp with astonishment. "Mother, jealous of me?" he whispered to himself, the memory of all the years and all the great happenings of all the years coming back to him. "Mother jealous of me?" He remembered how he had once been tormented by jealousy in the long, the ever-so-long ago, and of a sudden he hastened into the hall and went half-running up the stairs, He took hold of the latch of his bedroom door. It did not open. The door was locked. "Angy!" he called, a fear of he knew not what gripping at hie heart "Angy!" he repeated as she did not answer. The little old wife had locked herself in out of very shame of the rare tears which had been brought to the surface by the sisters' cruel treatment of Abraham. When she heard his call she hastened to the blue wash-basin and began hurriedly to dab her eyes. He would be alarmed If he saw the. traces of her weeping. Whatever had happened to him, for his eake she must face it valiantly. He called again. Again she did not answer, knowing that her voice would be full of the telltale tears. Abe waited. He heard the tramp of feet passing out of the dining room into the halt He heard Blossy emerge from her room at the end of the passage and go tripping down the stairs. The time to Angy, guiltily bathing her face, was sfcort; the time to her anxious husband unaccountably long. The sound of wheels driving up to the front door came to Abe's ears. Still Angy made him no response. • ' * • "Angy!" he'raised his voice la piteous pleading. What mattered if the' slaters gathered in (he lower hall heard him? What mattered if the chance guest who had just arrived heard him also? He had bis peace to make with his wife and he would make it "Angy!" She flung the door open hastily. The signs of the tears had not been obliterated, and her face was drawn and old. Straightway she put her hand on his arm and searched, his face inquiringly. "What did the gale say ter yew?" she whispered. "Abe, yew made a mistake when yew picked out Bl—" "Poor leetle mother!" he interrupted. "Poor leetle mother t" a world of remorseful pity in bis tone. "So yew been jealous of yer ole man?" Angeline, astonished and Indignant withdrew her hand sharply, demanding to know if he had lost his senses; but the blinded old gentleman slipped his arm around her and, bending, brushed his lips against her cheek. "Thar, thar," he murmured soothingly, "I didn't mean no harm. I can't help it ef all the gals git stuck on me!" Before Angy could make any reply, Blossy called to the couple softly but insistently from the foot of the stairs; and Angy, wrenching herself free, hastened down the steps, for once In her life glad to get away from Abe. He lost no time in following. No matter where Angy went, he would follow until all was well between Jber and him again. But what was this? At the landing, Angy halted and so did Abe, for in the center of the sisters stood Blossy with her Sunday bonnet perched on her silver- gold hair and her white India shawl over her shoulders, and beside Blossy stood Capt. Samuel Darby with a countenance exceedingly radiant his hand clasped fast in that of the aged beauty. "Oh, hurry, Sister Angy and Brother Abe!" called Blossy. "We were waiting for you, and I've got some news for all my friends." She waited smilingly for them to join the others; then with a gesture which included every member of the household, she proceeded: "The pink tea, I want you all to know, had a double significance, and first, of course, it was to celebrate the anniversary of Brother Abe's sojourn with us; but next it wae my farewell to the Home." Here Blossy gurgled and §ave the man at her right so coy a glance that Samuel's face flamed red and he hung his head lower to one side than usual, like a little boy that had been caught stealing apples. "I left the tea a trifle early— you must forgive me, Brother Abe, but I heard the train-whistle." Abe stood beside Angeline, rooted In astonishment, while Blossy continued to addrees him directly. "You gave Samuel so many good recommendations, dear brother, that when the time approached for his June visit, I felt that I simply could not let him miss it as he did in December. Last year, on the day you entered, he was here through no desire of mine. Today he is here at my request My friends," again she Included the entire home in her glance, "we'll come back a little later to say good-by. Now, we're on the way to the minister's." The pair, Samuel tongue-tied and bewildered by the joy of his finally won success, moved toward the door. On the threshold of the home Blossy turned and waved farewell to the companions of her widowhood, while Samuel bowed In a dazed fashion, his face still red as it was blissful. Then quickly the two passed out upon the porch. No one moved to see them off. Abe looked everywhere yet nowhere at all. Not a word was spoken even when the carriage was heard rolling down the drive; but the sound of the wheels seemed to arouse Angy from her stupor of amazement; and presently Abraham became conscious of a touch—a touch sympathetic, tender and true—a touch all-understanding— the touch of Angy's hand within his own. ,w Disaster of a Century Ago. Several lives were lost and much property destroyed by an explosion of gunpowder which occurred at Woolwich 100 years ago. Woolwich la the most ancient military and naval arsenal in England. In its dockyard menof- war were built as long ago as the beginning of the sixteenth century. The royal arsenal contains a factory for the making of shells and ear* tridges and a mammoth foundry for casting armor and ordnance, In addition to vast magaslnee of great guns, powder and other warlike stores.

The Turn of thc Tide. From time Immemorial the history of the popular hero has ever been the same. To king and patriot, to the favorite girl at school and the small boy who Is leader of the "gang," to politician, to preacher, to actor and author, comes first worship then eclipse. The great Napoleon did not escape this common fate; and the public idol who wae kissed only yesterday for his gallant deeds is scorned today for having permitted the kissing. Oh, caprice of the human heart! Oh, cry of the race for the unaccustomed! From that first anniversary of his entrance into the home, Abraham felt his popularity decrease—in fact more than decrease. He saw the weathervane go square about, and where he had known for three hundred and sixty-five days the gentle, balmy feel of the southwest zephyr, he found himself standing of a sudden in a cold, bleak northeast wind. The change bewildered the old man, and reacted on his disposition. As he had blossomed in the sunshine, so noW he began to droop in the shade. Feeling that he was suspected and criticized, he began to grow suspicious and fault-finding himself. His old notion that he had no right-to take a woman's place in the institution came back to his brain, and he would brood over it for hours at a time, sitting out on the porph with his pipe and Angy. The old wife grieved to think that father was growing old and beginning to show his years. She made him some tansy tea, but neither her persuasions nor those of the whole household could induce him to take it. He had never liked "doctoring" anyway, although he had submitted to it more or lees during the past year in unconeclous subservience to his desire to increase his popularity; but now he fancied that where once he had been served as a king by all these female attendants, he was simply being "pestered" as a punishment for his past behavior with Blossy. Ah, with its surprising ending that had been a humiliating affair; and he felt too that he would be long In forgiving Mrs. Darby for not having confided to him her actual intentions. Now he was afraid to be decently courteous to one of the sisters for fear that they might accuse him of light dalliance again; and he scarcely ever addressed the new member who came to take BlosBy's little room, for he had been cut to the quick by her look of astonishment when she was told that he belonged there. In hie mental ferment the old man began to nag at Angy. Sad though it is to confess of a hero honestly loved, Abraham had nagged a little all his married life when things went wrong. And Angeline, fretted and nervous, herself worried almost sick over father's condition, was guilty once in a while out of the depths of her anxiety of nagging back again. So do we hurt those whom we love best as we would and could hurt no other.

Petrograd.—I had the good fortune to ride with a Cossack detachment throughout the Manchurlau war and one of my old Cossack friends who was brought back to Petrograd, wounded, from Lemberg, has given me some account of the engagements which took place near the Galician capital. The Cossacks were often three days In the saddle and were the first Russians to enter Lemberg. "Our turn came," said my Cossack friend, ''when the Austrlans began to give way to our infantry. Then we were let loose on the-enemy's broken rear and soon converted <he retreat into a rout. We heard them cry out in terror, 'Die Kozaken! Die Kozaken!' Swept Like Straw. "The Hungarian cavalry tried to stop us, but we swept them aside like straw. They had red breeches and beautiful Jackets, like those worn by our Cossack women. They also had fine horses and were good riders, but did not know in the least how to use their spears. When we, the Don Cossacks, Btick men with our spears we throw into the blow not only our own weight, but the whole weight of our horses. "The Austrlans fled in panic, throwing aw$y their rifles, abandoning their cannons and machine guns and transport wagons full of hay and provisions. The same morning the Cossacks rode into the conquered town. All the shops were closed and more than half the inhabitants had fled. Those who remained cheered the Russian vanguard. Welcomed by People. "Triumphal arches made from the boughs of trees were erected across the streets. Russian flags floated from the windows and many of the townspeople greeted us in good Russian. Nobody fired on us. We were received as friends and brothers and everybody waB very kind. "Before noon General Ruzsky rode down the principal street, preceded by a military band and a standard bearer carrying the Russian flag. We, Don Cossacks, had our trumpeters with us when we entered, a,nd it was as if we entered Kiev or Holy Moscow itself. The church bells rang and the Pravostavy popes came out of their churches in vestments and blessed us as we passed. Little girls dressed in white strewed flowers in the path of General Ruzsky, who rode, surrounded by his officers, and the wise men of the town met him in their robes of office and made him an address of welcome." Campaign Is Bloody. We have heard little of the prolonged and terrible struggle in Poland and Galicla. Nevertheless that campaign has been as bloody as that on the Meuse, and the Austrian, though beaten, has struggled gallantly. The Russians greet the Austrlans in a friendly way when prisoners arrive. It is not easy to arrive at a correct estimate of the number of Austrian prisoners now interned in various parts of Russia. The Bourse Gazette, one of the leading evening newspapers of Petrograd, sets the figure at 300,000. Among them is the former Austrian commandant of Lemberg. The prison' ers include^ an extraordinary number of-Slavs. Prisoners a Puzzle. "What shall we do with our Austrian prisoners V Is the cry of the moment. The best Austrian troops, those from the Tyrol, have no quarrel with the Slavs and know nothing about them, while the troops from eastern Austria are half Slav themselves, or else are easy-going and not serious. This want of seriousness constitutes a great moral defect in the Austro- Hungarian army. It explains the readiness of the Austrlans to retreat or surrender. The following communication, has been received from the staff of Grand Duke Nicholas, commander-in-chief of the Russian forces In the field: Fortress Is Bombarded. "The enemy has approached Oasowets from the north and has begun the bombardment of the fortress. I n Galicla we hare occupied Debica, on the railway 65 miles east of Cracow, and between Bzessow and Tarnow. "At Coloujok w e defeated a detach* m«nt of the enemy and captured his artillery and many prisoners. Continuing the pursuit, we entered Hungary." * Meets B i * Obstacle*. The Russian army In Bast Prussia under General Rennenkampff has been meeting terrible obstacles for the last three weeks. One of the greatest of thate is the fortified camp in the socalled Masurian lake district of German Poland. There are innumerable small lakes and t h e marshy ground between them Is oorered with foreeta Checked fey. BIQ German Fore*. . The area is occupied by a German amy of from «»,«& to 100,000 man, which menaces toward the north any movement in the direction of Koenigaberg and toward the south all Russian -attempts to reach Thorn and Graudenz. For this reason General Rennenkampff 's army, after its flrBt unchecked advance, could not proceed and it even had to retire for safety until a largo force could be brought up to stop the activities from the Mazurian lake camp, by which the progress of the Russians in East Prussia was checked. Changed Times in Russia. The case of Bourteseff, the Russian revolutionist, is a sign of the changed times in Russia and his-return indicates the state of mind of many men like him. He told me that he had returned not to make peace with the internal reactionary opposition, because he could not forget the hundreds of thousands of people who are imprisoned or exiled, but to give an impulse to the national effort in the direction of a new era in the country's foreign policy. Until now the Russian government had supported Prussian militarism and had especially oppressed Russian Poland. Instead of protecting the Poles, who are the most civilized of the Slavs, it had persecuted them. Bourteseff and others hope to arouse such support and enthusiasm among the Poles that the government cannot withdrew later in its promise to form a united, self-governing Poland. AUSTRIANS IN PANIC AT FALL OF LEMBERG By CAMILLO CIANFARRA. Rome. — Returning after a two months' stop with the Austrian general staff, Arnoldo Fraccaroli, the Corrier de la Sera's correspondent, thus described Lemberg's fall: "Up to August 16 Lemberg lived In happy Ignorance of the events on the Galician frontier. The Austrlans still believed the Russian army sadly disorganized and led by drunken, epileptic generals. "The censor had taken all precaution against the truth leaking out. One thing only was overlooked, and that is what happened one afternoon while the population promenaded in the parks and thoroughfares. Lemberg was suddenly invaded by thousands of refugees arriving from every direction by foot, rail and on horseback. They related the wildest stories of the Cossacks' doingB. "The flood of refugees continued eight days, bringing along waves of despair, fear and misery until the population had swelled from 240,000 to 350,000. First Greet Panic "Simultaneously the wounded began arriving. Schools, churches, offices and theaters were transformed into hospitals. On August 26 the city was housing 40,000 wounded. "On the same day the Cossacks appeared three miles from the city, causing the first great panic. The railroad depots were besieged and a general exodus began. Now the truth was fully known, and news from the front increased the panic. "Simultaneously the city was being* treated to the weirdest spectacles. Pickets passed hourly, escorting to be hanged or sh& groups of men, women*, children and priests whom the Austrlans considered friendly to the Russians. "Between the 26th and 28th of August the Russian artillery succeeded in taking a position without being detected. Suddenly the Russian guns opened a tempest of fire on the Eleventh army corps, which had come within range, and with the help of the Russian Infantry and machine guns was annihilated. "The Third corps, dispatched to replace them, met with the same fate. Then the Twelfth was rushed out to be shot, sustaining enormous losses. "Of 4,000 men forming the Twentyseventh Trieste regiment Only 600 survived. Of the Seventeenth Lublan regiment only 800 survived; not an officer was left Many Die In Panic "On the morning of August 81 a train ef one hundred cars was made ready by the authorities to send out the first refugees, but as soon as the depot gates'were opened the panic* stricken crowd rushed to the train. Wild scenes followed. Children were crushed, women were trodden down. The train left with people strapped to every support "On the afternoon of August 81 a 86- hour armistice was arranged, and 00,- 000 Austrian and Russian dead were buried. Nearly double that number of wounded were removed. "On the morning' of September 8 a generar alarm was sounded. It was the end. Every Austrian soldier fled without taking his arms or ammunition/* '"; :" -7- Annual Crop of Oats. The world's annual crop of oatB, including the total of the 17 countries Which are the chief producers, is 3,- 426,000,000 bushels a year. The United States raised 1,123,000,000 bushels, which places her In a position to export large quantities without feeliug the loss. A very large part of the corn crop is raiBed In the United States. Of the total annual crop of 2,776,000,000 bushels raised by nine countries the United States raises 2,373,000,000 bushels. It Is surprising to find that Hungary produced upward of 200,000,001) bushels and Italy 100,000,000 bUHhels. The world's crop of barley grown in 17 countries was last year 1,225,000,000 bushels, of which only 173,000,000 was raiBed in America.

The uncalled for comment on our little village by our brother editor, Pierce of South Lyon, reminds us of that old adage that "People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones." A new kind of farm activity has come into being. It bids fair to push the big times of threshing meetings into discard, It is the picnic of filling the silo. The silo cutter and its attendants takes several men and already we see how our neighborly farmers will in a few years be trading work in silo filling, while the farm wives will each conspire to build dinners that will last pleasantly in the memories of the silo men. Such filling is going to fit into that spell time of the farmer that comes after harvest and afore corn shuckin.

About a week latex my face was BO badly covered with pimples and blackheads that I was ashamed. My complexion was ruined. The pimples would sometimes bleed and fester. "I bought a box of complexion cream and used it but without effect. One day I heard of Guticura Soap and Ointment and I decided to give them a trial. So I got a cake of Cuticura Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment washed my face with the Soap and applied the Ointment and in two weeks I wae completely ^ well." (Signed) Chas. E. McGinn, May 5, 1914.

LIGHT BOOZE. Do You brink Itf ; A minister's wife had quite a tus- «Ie with coffee and her experience is Interesting. She says: "During the two years of my training as a nurse, while, on night duty, I became addicted to coffee drinking. Between midnight and four in the morning, when the patients were asleep, there was little to do except make the rounds, and it was quite natural that I should want a hot cup of coffee about that time. I could keep awake better. "After three of four years of coffee drinking, I became a nervous wreck and thought that I simply could not live without my coffee. All this time 1 was subject to frequent bilious attacks, sometimes* so severe as to keep me in bed for several days. "After being married, Husband begged me to leave off coffee for he feared that It had already hurt me almost beyond repair, so I resolved to make an effort to release myself from the hurtful habit "I began taking Postum, and for a - few days felt the languid, tired feeling from the lac# of the coffee drag, : but I liked the taste of Postum, and that answered for the breakfast beverage an right "Finally I began to feel clearer- - headed and had steadier nerves.

The more recreation we have the less vice there will be in the country, and I regard the'football match on a Saturday afternoon as one of the best possible devices to keep men in the purity of the open air. I believe that the increase of sport is the biggest factor in the increase of temperance, and go so far as to say if you take the Church of England away from London you remove the greatest sporting Influence. Some people object to the professional footballer, but I see no reason why a man of that class who gives entertainment to the public should not be paid for bis services just in the same way'as a muelclan or a parson. If we waat the best we always have to pay for it.—Rev, A. J. Waidron, in T. P.'s Weekly, London. Helping the Lawyer. When a certain North Carolina jurist made his first appearance at the bar as a young lawyer he was given charge by the state solicitor of the prosecution of a man who was accused of some misdemeanor. Although there was practically no evidence against the man, the youthful attorney did his best, but wae astonished when the jury brought in a verdict of "guilty." After t\e trial one of the jurors tapped the young lawyer on the shoulder. "We didn't think the man was guilty," he explained, "but at the same time didn't like te discourage a young lawyer by acquitting him." Dolls Have Character. The dolls from France and Germany are large-headed, round-faced, vacanteyed creatures that have made "dolllike prettiness" the synonym for complete insipidity. The American dolls are In many cases not pretty at all. They are what dealers call "character dolls." They have expression. They remind one of the little girl In the story who teld an overcrltical grownup that ehe might not be p-r-e-t-t-y, but she could s-p-e-1-1. Few of them are beautiful, but all of them are interesting. And they are very American indeed. With the failure of French and German dollies to travel overseas these very American persons must take their places. Olden Punctuations. In the early days of their craft compositors had no need to worry about quotation marks. Punctuation was then of the simplest, consisting only of an oblique line and a full stop. The first book to Introduce the colon and notes of interrogation and exclamation appears to have been a "Lactantlus," printed at a monastery near Rome in 1465. Title pages were also unknown in those early days. The books started straight off with "Here beginneth" an author's or publisher's name being prefixed. This causes much difficulty in attributing early work to the proper sources. w PRESIDENT OF FRANCE VISITS BATTLE FRONT Allies Encouraged By Ruler Who is Permitted to Join Gen. J off re GREAT BATTLE ON AISNE IS STILL WITHOUT RESULT French Claim That Enveloping Move ment Continues and That Crown Prince Is Forced to Retreat. Ocean Is Holland's Defense. Holland's safety in time of war lies in her ability to flood great tracts of land. William .of Orange flooded the country in 1S74, and by so doing drove out the Spanish invaders. The same policy was adopted on the occasion of ths French invasion of 1675. The movement of a lever at Amsterdam i t sufficient to open every dyke and damin Holland simultaneously, it Is said, to put under water within the* space of a few hours the whole country from Naarden on the Zuyder Zee, by Utrecht, to Geertruidenbtrg, at the mouth of the Mouse. Possible Good In Accident A young man who, having run up a lot of bills which were considerably beyond his means to pay. was much pestered by collectors. He, however, had the disposition of a true lfioaw» ber and did not allow himself to be put out by their attentions. One day a collector oame to his house, and In mounting the4ey>froit steps slipped and broke his arm. The young spendthrift who was looking out of the window at the time, remarked calmly: *'Welt I hope tlut will se alesson to them to keep away from me for a while." HAD NO TIME FOR THE WAR London—The twenty-second day of fighting along the Aisne seems to have found little advantage for either side, although both claim to be satisfied with results. The allies resumed t h | movement to envelope von Kluck, stormed the German trenches north of Soissons and accelerated the retreat of Crown Prince Frederick William. Reserved, cautious and generalized, the government reports contain nevertheless, a new note of satisfaction. The thrust to destroy von Kluck's supply lines and rolL his army back on von Buelow's is again under headway north and east of Arras, where the fighting, tremendously violent is indecisive. There are reports that flying columns have circled toward the Belgian frontier. Fury Slackens In East Probably the most important success of the twenty-second day of the battle was gained near Soissons by breaking the west end of the Germans' long fortified and almost impregnable position reaching from the Aisne to the Sulppe. Hitherto, the German have frustrated all such attacks. . Eastward to the Argonne ridge the combatants, both behind unbreakable fortifications, did not risk frontal attacks. Battle fury slackened. There, allies and Germans await the decision at the west. But in the forts of the Argonne, misfortune runs at the heel of the German crown prince. His efforts to cooperate with the Bavarians and von Heerlgen in assaulting che barrier fortresses were defeated, he was energetically pursued as he^fled northward. His repulse necessarily weakens the whole German line. Guerrlla warfare continues in Lorraine and the Vosgee, where Germans and French, holding strong positions, thrust at each other in day and night raids, neither side' able to progress, despite small but most sanguinary engagements. Thus fighting, whleh would compel attention at another time, is lost sight of in the vast and dramatic combat at the west. President Visits Front The president of France and the cabinet council have been permitted to visit General Joffre's headquarters because the situation, for the first time, is favorable to the presence of the government near the battle front The Germans continue their persistent attack on the outer defenses of Antwerp, according to London dispatches. , Apparently they are engaged in a desperate attempt to capture the port and they are in a desperate hurry to do i t They are pounding away with Austrian mortars at the fogs of Waelhem and Wavre-St. Catherine and are flinging their infantry forward in frantic efforts to break through. So far they have accomplished little and have Buffered terrific losses. As far as can be learned, the only men they have available are marines and the Iandwehr, although it is reported that fresh troops pf the line are being brought inv Reports of the number killed vary considerably but the figure many times repeated is 8,000. Heretofore, fortresses have not stood long before the big German siege guns which have been brought up. But Antwerp is in a differentcategory, as, in addition to being stronger than any fortress yet attacked, there is a considerable space in which the field army can operate against the besieging forces. The Germans have also been active in two,widely separated parts of Belgium. They visited Toumai Saturday and announced that they were an advance guard of 1,000 men proceeding to Lille; while Sunday night and Monday morning fighting was going as far to the east near Lanaeken, northwest of Maastricht One report-said Lanae*4- ken was on lire, but another declared it was a nearby village that was burning. A number of fugitives have arrived at Maastricht as well at some Belgian soldiers, who had been interned. Good Reason Why Mr. Staokrlder Knew Nothing About the Conflict In Europe. "One of my hens laid an egg this morning with a big 'W' on it as plain aB could be!" stated Farmer Gapp. "Well, that don't hurt it for ma> ketin', does it?" returned neighbor Stackrider. "No, but that *W' is a sign of war. and what 1 don't understand is how the hen knew." "Knew what—the alphabet?" "No, about the war." "What warr "Good gracious, Bzry!

Pinckney, Livingston County, Michigan, Thursflay, October 18, 1914 No. 42 LOOK THIS UP 'raternal Insurance Is Liable to *et a "Knockout" In November ' * . , • • • ' - ' . I At the general election on the third of November there is to be Toted upon an amendment to the $fcate constitution affecting frat- ^^•rnal eocieties and if by any ^i^Dhance it should receive a majority of the votes cast the Immediate ireanlt will be the exclusion of ipracticaUy every .society of that nature from the state. In their efforts to defeat the measure the "350,000 members of fraternal eocieties. in the state have joined hands and are appealing to their friends to aid them at the polls <by voting "no." In many counties organizations of Maccabees, Woodman, Yeomen, Gleaners, Loyal Guards, Foresters and others, is being perfected and a systematic campaign against the Amendment is to be made. State Insurance Commissioner Winshlp has already given it as his opinion that the adoption of the amendment will exclude the societies from the state and that no society in the future will be permited to pay anything except death losses—no sick benefits, on old age disability claims, no hospital benefits, etc. In->ddition to all the fraternal eocieties in the state which are fighting the proposed amendment other organizations, such as the Michigan Commerical Travellers' JUsool&tfon, the Federation of Labor; the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen have passed resolutions instructing all* their members to aid in defeating the amendment.

Greenwald, head of the Service Department of the Firestone Tire & Rubber Company, suggests the following precautions to auto owners: When you are through with your car for the season, jack it up, remove the tires from the rims, and wash them well with soap and water. Be sure to remove all traces of oil or grease. The rims too, should be sandpapered to remove all traces of rust accumula^ don, and painted with liquid graphite. Inner tubes should be deflated, and placodnn a box, or wrapped in a clean cloth or paper, and laid flat m a dark place with no weight resting on them. If they are left in the tubes, they should be partly inflated. . While the car is not in use is an opportune time to have necessary repairs made on tires. It is the repair shops slack season and-asyou are in no hurry for the return of the tires, they can devote all the time necessary for your job and do it right. Examine tires well and* have aJJL cuts in the tread extending through to the fabric, repaired. By following these suggestions, you can add many miles to the life of your ties.

Captain Abraham Rose and Angellne. hi« wife, have lost their little home through Abc-'n unlucky purchase of Tena- «y Gold mining stock. Their household foods sold, the )100 auction money, all hey have left, will place Abe in the Old Man's home, or Angy in the Old Lady's home. Both are self-sacrificing but Abe decides: "My dear, this Is the fust time I ve had a chance to take-the wust of it." The old couple bid good-by to the little house. Terror of "what folks will say" •ends them along by-paths to the gate of the Old Ladles' home. Miss Abigail, matron of the Old Ladles' home, hears/ of the ill .fortune of the old couple. She tells the other old ladies, and Blossy. who has paid a double fee for the only double bedchamber, voices the unanimous verdict that Abe must be taken In with his wife. he la "Old Lady No. 31." The old ladies Abe awakens next morning to find that Eve him such a warm welcome that he made to feel at home at once. "Brother Abe" expands under the warm reception of the sisters, and a reign of peace begins in \he Old Ladies* home. Abe is the center of the community. The semi-annual visit of Blossy's aged lover, Capt. Samuel Darby, is due. Abe advises her to marry him. For the first time the captain fails to appear. Blossy consults Abe so often regarding Darby, his old captain in the life-saving service, that gossip beginB to buzz. Aunt Nancy takes Abe to task for flirting with Blossy. He is much concerned when he learns that Angy is Jealous. Blossy drives away with Darby to be married. CHAPTER X—Continued. "I told yer I never could stand it here amongst all these dratted womenfolks," Abe would declare. "It's all your fault that I didn't go to the poorhouse in peace." "I notice yew didn't raise no objections until yew'd lived here a year," Angy would retort; but ignoring this remark, he would go on: "It's 'Brother Abe' this an' 'Brother Abe' that, as ef I had thirty wives a-pesterln' me instid of one. I can't kill a fly but It's 'Brother Abe, lemme bury him fer yew.' Do yer all think I be a baby?" demanded the old gentleman with glaring eye. "I guest I'm able ter do somethln' fer myself onde In a while. I hain't so old as some folks might think," he continued with superb inconsistence. "I be a mere child compared with that sir plagued Nancy Smith." It took very little to exhaust Angy's ability for this style of repartee, and she would rejoin with tender but mistaken efforts to soothe and comfort him: "Thar, thar, father 1 Don't git excited now. Seems ter me ye 're a leetle bit feverish. Ef only yew'd take this here tansy tea." Abraham would give one exasperated glance at the tin cup and mutter into the depths of his beard: "Tansy tea an' old women! Old women an' tansy teat Tansy tea be darned!" Abe failed perceptibly during the summer, grew feebler as the autumn winds blew in, and by November he took to his bed and the physician of the home, a little whiffet of a pompous Idiot, was called to attend him. The doctor, determined at the start to make a severe case of the old man's affliction in order that he might have the greater glory in the end, be it good or bad, looked very grave over Abraham's tongue and pulse, prescribed medicine for every half hour, and laid ^ especial stress upon the necessity of keeping the patient in bed. "Humbug!" growled the secretly terrified invalid, and in an excess of Bravado took hie black silk necktie from where It hung on the bedpost and tied it in a bow-knot around the collar Of bit pink-striped nightshirt, so that ike would be in proper shape to receive any of the sisters. Then he lay very etlll, hii *yes closed, as they came tip. toeing in. and out Their tongues were SB gentle tiptoe too, although not so gentle but that he could hear then advising: One, a "good, stiff mustard " one, an "onion poultice;" an- "Spanish blister;" while Aunt Nancy stopped short of nothing leas than "old-fashioned bleeding.* Abe toy Tory still and wondered if they intent to kill him. He was probably going to die anyhow, so why torment Isk. Only when he was dead, be feoped that they would think more ktetfly of him. And so surrounded yet alone, the old man fougM his secret until mercifully he went to with them for the "great haven" over tnere; and the whisper reaching the sickroom, Abe's fever would rise, while he could never lift his lashes except to see the specter of helpless old age on one side of the bed and death upon the other. "What's the matter with me?" he demanded of the doctor, as one who would say: "Pooh! pooh! You're a humbug! What do you mean by keeping me in bed?" Yet the old man was trembling with that inner fear. The physician, a feminine kind of a bearded creature himself, took Abe's hand in his—an engaging trick he had with the old ladies. "Now, my friend, do not distress yourself. Of course, you are a very sick man; I cannot deceive you as to that; but during my professional career, I have seen some remarkable cases of recovery and—" "But what's the matter with me?" broke in Abe, by this time fairly white with fear. The doctor had assured him that all his organs were eound, so he could only conclude that he must have one of those unusual diseases such as Miss Abigail was reading about in the paper yesterday. Maybe, although his legs were so thin today, he was on the verge of an attack of elephantiasis! "What's the matter with me?" he repeated, his eyes growing wilder and wilder. What the doctor really replied would be difficult to tell; but out of the confusion of his technicalities Abe caught the words, "nerves" and "hysteria." "Mother, yew hear that?" he cried. "I got narvous hysterics. I told yer somethln' would happen ter me a-comin' to this here place. All them old woman's diseases is ketchin'. Why on 'arth didn't yer let me go to the poorhouse?" He fell back-on the pillow and drew the bedclothes up to his ears, while Angy followed the doctor out into the hall to receive, as Abe supposed, a more detailed description of his malady. He felt too weak, however, to question Angy when ehe returned, and stubbornly kept his eyes closed until he heard Mrs. Homan tiptoe into the room to announce in hushed tones that Blossy and Samuel Darby were below, and Samuel wanted to know if he don't yew know that I'm a .doomed man? I got the 'narcous hysterics.'" "Yew got the pip! "retorted Captain Darby contemptuously, and trotting quickly around to the Bide" of the bed, he seized Abe by the shoulders and began to drag him out upon the floor, crying again, "Git up!" The sick man could account for this remarkable behavior In no way except by concluding that his old captain had, gone into senile dementia—oh, cruel, cruel afflictions that life brings to old folks when life Is almost done! Well, thought Abe, he would rather be sick and die in bis right mind than go crazy. He began to whimper, whereupon Samuel threw him back upon His pillows in disgust. "Cryin'! Oh, I swan, he's cryin'!" Darby gave a short lairgh pregnant with scorn. "Abe Rose, dew yew know what alls yew?" he demanded, fixing his eyes fiercely upon the Invalid. "Dew yew'know what'U happen tew yew if yew don't git out o' this bed an' this here house? Either yer beard'll fall out an* yew'11 dwindle deown ter the size o' a baby or yew'll turn Into a downright old woman—Aunt Abraham!— won't that sound nice? Or 'Em." yew'll die or yew'll go crazy. Git out er bed I" The patient shook his head and sank back, closing his eyes, more exhausted than ever. And he himself had heard might see the invalid. i Angy warn this man in a whisper not Then Abe threw off the covers In a/ to "rile him went m. When he awoke there were the sistarn again; and day after day they epsnt their combined-efforts in keeping him on bis back and forcing him to take Ms medicine, the only appreciable resulting therefrom being the thai with his tax upon their devothe ntt ladies came once more to raajard Aba as the most precious poa- §eja>km of the Home. / ; "What ef he should dier they whiskered among thesnsehres, repentant enongb of their late oondemnation of htm end :aJready desohue at the t h * * ^ esrft k s n y ^ little hardh hurry and sat up. "Sam'l Darby?" he asked, the strength coming back Into his voice. "A man! Nary a woman ner a doctor! Yes—yes, show him up!" Angy nodded in responee to Mrs. Homan's glance of Inquiry; for had not the doctor told her that it would not hasten the end to humor the patient in any reasonable whim? And she also consented to withdraw when Abe informed her that he wished to be left alone with his visitor, as it was so long since he had been face to face with a man "an' no petticoat a-hangin' 'round the corner." "Naow, bev keerful. Cap'n Darby," the little mother-wife cautioned at the door, "be very keerful. Don't stay tew long an' don't rile him up, fer he's dretful excited. Abe is." CHAPTER XI. Mental Treatment Little Samuel Darby paused at the foot of the bed and stared At Abe without saying a word, while Abe fixed bis dim, distressed eyes on his visitor with a dumb appeal for assistance. Samuel looked a very different man from the oM bachelor who used, to come a-wooing every six months at the Homo. Either marriage had brought him a new growth of hair, or else Blossy bad selected a new wig for him—a modest cloee, Iron-gray which fitted his poll to perfection. Marriage or Blossy had also overcome in Samuel that tendency* to hang his hand "to starb/dj upl" Remorselessly on the rejuvenated Darby: "Hain't a-goln' ter git up, bah? Yew old mollycoddle! Yew babyl Old Lady 31! Kitty calf! But I hain't a-blamin' yew; ef I had lived In this here place a year an' a half, I'd he stark, starin' madl Leetle tootsiewootsiet Git up!" Abe had opened his eyes and was once more staring at the other, his mind slowly coming to the light of the realisation that Samuel might be more sane than himself. "That's what I told Angy all along," he ventured. "1 told her, I says, says | I, 'Humbug! Foolishness! Ye're amakin' a reg'lar baby of me. Why.' I says, 'what's the difference between me an' these here women-folks except that I wear a beard an' smoke a pipe?" "Then why don't yew git up*' demanded the inexorable Samuel. "Git up an' fool 'em; or, gosh all hemlock! they'll be measurln'yew fer yer coffin next week. When I come inter the hall, what dew yew think these here sisters o'yourn was a-discussln'? They was a-arguin' the p'int as to whether they'd bury yew in a shroud or yer Sunday suit." Abraham put one foot out of bed. Samuel took hold of his arm and with this assistance the old man managed to get up entirely and stand, though shaking as if with the palsy, upon the floor. "Feel pooty good, don't yew?" demanded Samuel, but with less severity. "A leetle soft, a leetle soft," muttered the other. "Gimme my cane. Thar, ef one o' them women comes in the door I'll—I'll—" Abraham raised his stick and shook it at the innocent air. "Whar's my pipe? Mis' Homan, she went an' hid it last week." After some searching, Samuel found the pipe in Abe's hatbox underneath the old man's beaver, and produced from his own pocket a package of tobacco, whereupon the two sat down for a quiet smoke, Samuel chuckling to himself every now and again, Abe modestly seeking from time to time to cover his bare legs with the skirt of his pink-striped nlghtrobe, not daring to reach for a blanket lest Samuel should call him names again. With the very first puff of his pipe, the light had come back Into the Invalid's eyes; with the second, the ashen hue completely left his cheek; and when he had pulled the tenth time on the pipe, Abe was ready to laugh at the sisters, the whole world, and even himself? "Hy-guy, but it's splendid to feel like a man ag'ln!" The witch of Hawthorne's story never gazed more fondly at her "Feathertop" than Samuel now gazed at Abraham pulling away on his pipe; but he determined that Abraham's fate should not be as poor "Feathertop's." Abe must remain a man. "Naow look a-here, Abe," he began after a while, laying his hand on the other's , knee, "dew yew knaow that yew come put' nigh git tin' swamped in the big breakers? Ef I hadn't come along an' throwed out the life-line, yew—" * "Sam'l," interrupted the new Abraham, not without a touch of asperity, "whar yew been these six months? A-leavln' me ter die of apron strings an' doctors! Of course I didn't 'spect nuthin' o' yew when yew was Jlst a bachelor, an' we'd sort o' lost sight er each other fer many a year, but arter yew got connected with the Hum by marriage sorter—" "Connected with the Hum by marriage!" broke in Samuel with a snort of Indignant protest "Me!"

M " * * . •;•• - . . V ^ . Port Wayne, Indiana, October 12.— A matter of great interest to life insurance policyholders in Michigan is the fact that the Lincoln National Life Insurance Company of this city, one of the large companies with a great many Michigan policyholders, has taken the progressive step of electing five Michigan men to its board of directors. They are: r'V. * > . • * . - • • • • ' " • . Hon. Edwin Denby. Edwin Denby of the well-known law firm of Chamberlain, May, Denby & WebBter of Detroit, and also a director in the Denby Motor Truck company and National Bank of Commerce and the treasurer of the Hupp Motor Car company. "* Albert E. Sleeper, formerly treasurer of state and a banker at Bad Axe and other cities In the Thumb District He Is also a director in the Merchants National bank of Detroit. Henry E. Morton, president of the Morton Manufacturing company and president of the State Savings bank at Muskegon Heights, Michigan. Henry C. Loveridge, a prominent attorney at Coldwater. ^ Burt S. Stratton, a prominent life insurance agent and citizen at Lansing. There are five Michigan life insurance companies and at the end of last year their combined insurance in force in the, state amounted to less than 1 per cent of the life insurance carried by the sixty-seven companies from out of the state which wrote insurance in Michigan. So tar as we know, the Lincoln Life of Fort Wayne is the first outside company to elect Michigan directors to its board and thus lend the assurance to its 7,600 Michigan policyholders that their interests are being looked after on the board of directors by big business men of their pwn state. This move on the part of the Lincoln Life ought to assure Michigan people that their interests are receiving careful attention and that the company merits the entire confidence of Michigan people. The Lincoln Life has over twentyone millions of life Insurance in force and about eight millions of it Is on the lives of Michigan citizens; It Is writing new business in Michigan at the rate of two million dollars a year and has About 40 per cent of its entire assets invested in Michigan farm loans and municipal bonds. In other words the life insurance premiums that have been paid on these Michigan policies has been reinvested in the state to help build up the resources of the Michigan people. This is more than any other outside company does and it should result in a greatly increased Michigan business for this splendid company. The Lincoln Life is seeking to add to Its already splendid agency force in Michigan and should lil^e to receive applications from Michigan men or women'who seek employment or desire to better their present positions. There Is no line of work open to the person of average education and ability, without capital or influence, in which the opportunities for accomplishing immediate financial returns, building up a substantial income and attaining to a position of importance and prominence In the business affairs of a xommunity, are equal to the" opportunities offered by a life insurance agency. The only capital required is clean character, a clear head, honesty of purpose, tact, enthusiasm and a big surplus of indomitable energy and grim determination to succeed. Endowed with these prerequisites the man or woman who takes up life insurance, work need have no fear of failure, and if he or she will carefully study the business, making the best possible use of time and opportunities, there are no chances on profits, as success is certain. Adv. MOTHERS AND DAME FASHION Women Molds Her Daughter In Foundation of Style and Taste From Earliest Years. Take the average girl, carefully note the manner in which she is dressed and <then you have an advertisement —good or bad—for her mother. In some subtle manner a mother molds her daughter from babyhood in the style of her clothing, and it is a very important molding, too. For if clothes do not make the man they do go a long way i.n giving a true impression of a woman. Every new dress that a mother buys for her little girl is a small stone in the foundation of style and taste that will guide her daughter in future years. I was taking tea with a well-known public woman recently, and she called my attention to two young business girls who were sitting at another table in the restaurant.

London—German troops are advancing swiftly toward Ostend, hoping to capture the city by a sudden attack and makes prisoners of King Albert and the Belgian government officials, according to a dispatch from The Hague. Belgian, British and French armies took positions Sunday on a new battle line southeast of Ostend for the defense of that city and a resumption of operations against the German lines of communicati6n in Belgium. Strong British reinforcements permitted" the Belgian army to pass Ghent intact to effect a consolidation with the French and British.. This new stand of the allies is intended to develop into a strong offensive, Paris dispatches say, with a view toward striking at Brussels, so menace the German communication" through Belgium as to make it necessary for the invaders to abandon France and once for all remove the danger of another advance toward Paris. Large numbers of troops are said to have been sent by General Joffre to reinforce the allies already before Ostend, and operations on a large scale are expected in that region soon. Battle Line Lengthened. Twenty thousand Germans marching westward met a temporary check at Quatrecht, near Wetteren, east of Ghent, at the hands of French and British troops. The French communication issued Sunday afternoon deals only with the battle, or series of battles, which has been in progress for four weeks from east to west in France with an ever extending line, which now reaches northward from the elbow at Noyon to and across the Belgian border at Armentieres. The statement says that the allies have held their positions everywhere and that German cavalry, which was attempting to envelop the allies' left wing and had seized certain points of passage on the river Lyst to the east of Aire, 20 miles from the coast, was defeated and retired to the northeast into the ArmentlereB district. Cavalry on Large Scale. At the same time, the Germans delivered a vigorous attack on the right bank of the Ancre river, between Arras and the Oise, without making any pro* greas. This indicates that the battle in Picardy, comprising the department of Somme and part of Oise, Pas-de-Calals and Aisne, in which the cavalry is participating on a scale not seen in previous modern wars, extends over a very considerable area. Here are many miles of open country where horsemen can maneuver with advantage. Between the River Oise and Rheims, and particularly in the region northwest of Soissons, where the British forces are entrenched, further progress has been made. It thus seems probable thai the Germans have abandoned some of their strongly entrenched positions In this neighbor* hoodv It is reported that sanitary reasons have compelled this, as the trenches in which the troops have been living for weeks have become breeding places for disease. The Germans have resumed their night attacks between Craonne and Rheims, which, according to French accounts, have been repulsed. From Rheims to the Meuse, nothing of importance has occurred .of late, but in the Apremont district of the Woevre, to the east of S t MihieL the Germans made violent attacks during the night of October 9 and the following day. Apremont was taken by the Germans, but was retaken by the French and remains in their hands. The Germans apparently are determined to maintain as far as possible their positions here, where they have pierced the line of fortifications between Verdun and Toui along the river Meuse. Should they be successful against the lilies elsewhere, this doubtless would be the route by which they would en* deevor to enter the heart of France." Sign Causes a Near Riot. A sign in the window of a grocery store at Forty-third and Butler streets that sugar was selling 25 poundd for $1.10 caused a rush of women. Men working at night or going to work in the early morning Lad read the sign and hastened to tell their wives of the sale. Three hundred women congregated, seeking opportunity to buy. The storekeeper found that a joker had been at work. 'Wednesday evening he had painted a sign, "Sugar. 25 pounds $1.90." Some one had erased the loop from the figure nine. —Pittsburgh Gazette-Times.

Miner I )eniocrat Candidate Kor County CHerk To the voters of the South part of the County, your attention is again called to the fact that election d a y is close at hand, when you by your vote will be called upon again to elect officers to fill the several offices of the County for the next two years. Clark H. Miner, the present County Clerk and Democratic nominee for reelection h a s made a record for himself which entitles him to the confidence a n d respect of his constituants. And should t h e voters of t h e County desire to continue t h e same kind of service, no mistake will be made in re-electing M r . Miner, t o this important position for another term. T h e duties of the office have been carefully looked after and not one word of criticism has ever been heard against his ability. 'Jhanking t h e voters for the past favors conferred upon him and soliciting their support in the coming election with a promise that if elected he will endeavor to give t h e orifice his personal a t - tention a n d will t r y to improve the record heretofore made. , Taxpayers |of This County Will be Interested in Direct Information as Cost of trouble of Two* Years Ago Livingston county taxpayers are interested in the outcome of the election this fall as they have not been interested in m a n y years. All of them have felt t h e burden of recent unusual state taxes b u t it mav not be known to m a n v of them that t h e appropriations approved b y Govenor Ferris brought to Livingston county an increased tax of $14,132.87. T h e entire State t a x for t h e Ferris administration was $14,718- 748.89, almost three million dollars in excess of the state t a x permitted b y the Osborn administration. • If this was all t h e loss our county h a s been required to meet through t h e unfortunate election results of two years ago we would be very fortunate. B u t we have had to share in t h e loss t o every line of business that h a s come t o our state and to our country as a whole through t h e changing of t h e tariff and through t h e direct assaults on Michigan interests t h a t have been made a t Washington. T h e Republicans of this, county were divided t w o years ago a n d their division, of course, assisted in bringing the trouble for o u r state and nation. B u t they a r e united now a n d their votes for Governor Osborn a n d for our candidate for congress and the county candidates will indicate their protests against burdensome state taxes a n d against all t h e losses they have be#n compelled to endure through democratic direction and mismanagement. John A. Hagman C a n d i d a t e For County Clerk H e is a young m a n that the Re- * publican part\ elected for their candidate for that office, teeling t h a t he was capable and worthy of such a n honor a; the hands of the voters of this county. T w o years ago .he made a sacrifice run against «a man who was seeking his second term, t h a t it might p u t him in line for the coming election, as the present occupant of t h a t office t only asked for support for two terms, a n d is now asking for a third,. Therefore he feels justified in appealing to all parties for their support a t the coming election, and if elected will endeavor to - perform the duties 'of the office in such a maimer that you will be pleased with the support given him.

They come by millions, and the water takes on a slaty tint from their presence beneath the surface. This phenomenon is awaited intently by thousands of fishermen, and when the cry of "Here they are!" goes up Cfiere is M much excitement as Is occasioned by the whaler's shout of "Thar she blows!"

God roe Is cast out as bait, and the average catch Is about 4,000 each casting of the net jWhen first drawn from their element the sardines glitter like Jewels* reflecting many colors, but they soon lose their brilliant tints. Every village along the coast hgs its cannery, and, as these are mostly individual enterprises, there is much competition. The "sardine fisherman who does not own a boat of his own seldom makes over 1,000 francs, or about $200, from his labor of five or six months, and In JM seasons his. earnings are much law Tonr Fall Cold Needs Attention No use to fuss and try to wear it out.

It Is well known that under the Moslem religon divorce is made remarkably easy and that there is no need for any legal or religious formalities—a man being able, so to speak, to divorce his wife by word of mouth, This facility often gives rise to unpleasant re suits, as when a man in a burst of anger will divorce his wife and then bitterly repent of his rashness. One such incident happened recently in upper Egypt It is related that a fellah appealed to bis omdeh to help him to regain his wife, against whom be had pronounced the fatal words. The omdeh told him to traverse the streets of his village for two hours braying like an ass and to eat chopped straw as an ass does, when he would be absolved from his; divorce, without needing to go before the cadi. The fellah carried out the. order to the letter and then returned to his wife, fully convinced that he had done ample penance for his Impetuosity,—Boston Transcript Built Upon Cotton. When the Leasowe lighthouse, England, was built on the sandy Wlrral shore the builders were puzzled by the lack of a suitable foundation for the masonry tower. An ingenious way out of the difficulty was effected. In the vicinity an Incoming ship, laden with a cargo of cotton, had gone ashore and had become a total wreck. The cotton was useless for its intended purpose, so the bales were salvaged and dumped Into the sand at the point where the lighthouse was to be erected. The fleecy mass settled into the sand and under compression became as solid as a rock, while its permanency was assured by its complete submersion. The stability of this strange foundation may be gathered from the fact that the tower erected thereon stood and shed its welcome light regularly every night for about a century and a half, being extinguished only a few years ago, as it was no longer required,—Argonaut Corsica and Do Paoli. While the island of Corsica derives Its fame from being the birthplace of Napoleon, the name of Pasquale de Paoil Is more dear to the natives, for It was under the leadership of this patriot, in 1755, that they escaped from the yoke of the Genoese. For fourteen years he wisely administered the affairs of the Island. In 1769 France bought the island from Genoa and landed an army of 22,000, which Paoll met with n few thousand Corsicans and fought until his army was reduced to 537 men; yet he cut his way through and escaped to England, where he remained twenty years. At the outbreak of the revolution In France he returned to his native land and became military governor, but he could not get on With his old enemy, so he returned to England, where he died in 1S07. Many Uses For Old Leather. Old leather material, which finds its way into the waste pile, is extremely valuable and returns to our homes in many other shapes. It Is soaked in water to remove the dirt, all the nails and threads are picked out and the leather is reduced to a thick pulp, from which wall papers, screens, etc.. are made. The finer the original quality of leather the better it takes the bronze and old gold of the designs which make these hangings things of beauty. Bookbinders and framemakeri also know the value of this pulp, and carriage builders press it into sheets.

Some have asserted that it belongs to the beetles. of which it is an "aberrant type," others that it is connected with the grasshoppers. Even about its very name there has been endless discussion Some have thought the name earwig is the result of the creature's supposed habit of getting into the ears, while others are equally certain that it is derived from the original name, which they say was earwing, from the fact that the wing when spread resembles the human car. At all events, one thing Is certain—the earwig as we know it now is a survival of an early type of which almost every other member has become extinct SPECIALS ^ B S S S S S S S S S a a ^ ^ 3P O IES SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17th, 14 35c pkg.

International New* Service. Pari*.—The stream of wounded from the battlefields of the Marne and the Ourcq is being directed past Paris to hospitals In the rear, for the obvious reason that until it is quite certain that Paris will not have to defend herself against attack it would be unwise to fill the ample hospital accommodation of the capital. In the American hospital only 56 of those 500 beds are occupied. I came across a soldier of the Sixth dragoons, suffering from a bullet wound in the hip that he got at Complegne. The night before the battle his squadron was on outpost duty. Some firing had been heard, and he rode ahead of the squadron to see what was happening, believing that French cavalry were engaged with the Germans close at hand. He cantered along a moonlit road until suddenly in the shadow of some trees he found himself in the midst of a group of German horsemen. He had his carbine across the neck of his horse and fired point blank into the breast of a German trooper with whose horse his own came into collision. The German was as quick with his weapon, and both men fell to the ground, the German dead, the British with a bullet through his hip. An instants later the squadron came clattering up and cut the German detachment, about thirty strong, to pieces. Has 8trong Prejudice. The British dragoon has seen things which have given him a strong prejudice against the enemy. In a Belgian village he saw the yet warm corpse of peasant woman who had been struck down by a uhlan's lance. The uhlans were riding out of the village as the British rode In, and the man who killed the woman did so because she could not or would not give him some bread. Once on patrol duty he came across a stationary motor car. In It were three French officers and a lady, all dead, all sitting in the position in which they were when they died. A volley had been poured Into the car. The lady's hand hung carelessly over the side of the car, and the fingers showed marks of rings which had been roughly stripped off. Our cavalrymen were, he added, a good deal pestered by the enemy's aeroplanes during the retreat from Mons. .Whenever a German aeroplane appeared over a bivouac the order was given to change camp, and weary men and horses had to move further on. One man told in a voice from which the bitterness had not yet passed of a breakfast lost in this way. The meal almost assumed the proportions of a feast Two geese and three hens he and his mates had prepared for themselves, and just when they were ready to take them from the fire the enemy appeared in force, and the breakfast had not only to be abandoned, but to be abandoned to the Germans. Tureos Best Patients. Of all the patients the best, say the doctors, are the Tureos. There it no limit to the pain they can endure. Yesterday afternoon the parade of two standards captured from the enemy was accepted by Parisians as a good augury for the success of their arms. The number of French priests serving with the colors is a good deal larger than has been imagined, and it Is stated authoritatively today that as many at 19,000 priests are enrolled as combatants. The departure of the cardinal archbishop of Malines from the Gare St. Lazare gave rise last night to a picturesque scene. The archbishop was fully robed, and stood on the platform surrounded by a large crowd of priests and others who hare sympathised keenly with the Belgians in their struggle. As the train left the station be stood in the carriage bowing to those on the platform—an aseetio figure of the Richelieu type, a mail of dominant personality, with a charm of pose and expression that made one realize how keenly his work Is appreciated by his countrymen In Belgium. I Lest of Horses Appalling. The Wastage of horses during the present war has admittedly been appalling. At the St. Lasare terminus today I met a general with some 200 me* of the Ninth French dragoons. They, had no horses left and had come to pick up softs at present waiting in Hrla. They were then taking an coward-bound train as far as Chatoan Thierry. Their purpose was to harass the retreat of the Germans, who at this point in the firing line said to be> utterly exhausted. tared helpless after three sleepless nights. Even the sentries are asleep, ami every man capable of doing so IMS crept into a bars of other shelter to get some rest. * v The heroism displayed by the Britis* troops is the robject of admiring v noismsritt In the Frsnch taper*-The Liberte gives some striking examples. On one occasion the Germans in considerable force tried to enter a town occupied by British troops. One Scottish detachment was entrusted with the task of checking the advancing Germans till the English troops succeeded in retiring in good order. They took up a position in the first house in the town. The Germans directed a violent fire upon the houses, which soon threatened to bury the defenders under their ruins. The German attack slackened, and the Scots realized that the enemy was preparing to take up a still better position. During the lull a Scottish sergeant who occupied a grocery, discovered on the shelves several packets of chocolate, and turning to his men told them, "I'll give a bar of chocolate* to every man who kills a German." When the attack was resumed the sergeant gravely proceeded to distribute the promised rewards. Show Great Bravery. The day after the same * regiment was occupying a trench, swept by violent rifle and artillery fire, when two privates noticed that a Frenchman attached to the battalion as interpreter occupied the most exposed spot in the trench. One private said: "The Frenchman is badly placed, let'B widen his trench" and during a minute, paying no attention to, the hail or bullets and shrapnel, the privates deepened the trench, and with the same calm resumed their places. The correspondent adds that the bravery of the English is truly admirable. Although they had suffered heavily, the English never flinched an instant when informed that one of their best units had just been annihilated. They remained silent for a few Beconds and then answered, with wonderful determination: "Never mind. One day we will have the best of it" Every newspaper Is anxious to pay tribute to British bravery and prowess. After their trying retreat from Belgium the French are delighted that the British should participate in the more. congenial task of pursuing the Germans. "We are happy," says the Journal des Debats, "that, after having Nat one time occupied the thankless position at Mons and Cambral, our allies have the satisfaction of being with the advancing wing of our forces on the side where most trophleB have been won." Still They Came On. A Coldstream guardsman, writing of the fighting near the forest of Complegne, compares the sight of the Germans issuing from the trees to a cup-final crowd at the Crystal palace. "You couldn't miss them. Our bullets plowed into them, but still they came for us. I was well intrenched and my rifle got so hot I could hardly hold it. I was wondering if I should have enough bullets - when a pal shouted, 'Up, guards, and at 'em/ The next second he was rolled' over with a natty knock on the shoulder. He jumped up and hissed, 'Let me get at them.' His language was a bit stronger than that "When we really did get the order to get at them we made no mistake I can tell you. They cringed at the bayonet, but those on our left wing tried to get around us, and after racing as hard as we could for quite three hundred yards, we cut up nearly every man who did not run away." Referring to the cavalry he writes: "You have heard of the charge of the Light Brigade. It was nothing to our charge. 8lash snd Slash. '1 taw two of our fellows who were unhorsed stand back to back and slash away with their swords, bringing down nine or ten of the panicstricken devils. Then they got hold of the stjrrup straps of a horse with* out a rider and got out of the melee. This kind of thing was going on all day. "In the afternoon X thought we should all gat bowled over, at they came for us in their big numbers. Where they came from goodness knows; but as we could not stop them with bullets they had another taste of the bayonet My captain, a fine fellow, was near to me and as he fetched them down he shouted: 'Give them socks, my lads/ How many were Killed and wounded I don't know, but the field was covered with them/' • v Gives Boys Chance to Bnl 1st Bordeaux.—A decree Issued by the French government permits the mother or guardian of a youth under twenty years to act as a substitute for the absent father In authorising Whole sections of them are being cap-1 the young man to volunteer -for the war.

Votes have beeu eoming in by the thousands almost every day, and now the days of the contest are very limited. Next week Friday is the last day * and soon after 3 p. m. of that day the winner of the pinno will be known. You shotfld realize this, and i£ ever you should intend to win a thing, uow is the time. Some contestants, have said they do not want the contest to close so soon. They have had several months in which to pile up votes for just this crisis. Procrastination in this contest may have lost the piano for some one, two or three contestants. This race may end like that of the hare and tortoise, perseverance often wins. You still have time yet to get lots and lots of votes. But remember, you will not have the chance again. Do you fnlly realize that a $400 piano is to be given to the contestant having the largest number of votes next week Friday? Why, you are letting them have it with just a little work! It would be fun to make them race for it anyway; but you are content to sit by peacefully and watch some one else get the prize while one of your very best friends could perhaps have won with your help. But yon cannot realize the beauty of the prize until you see some one else with it, it seems. Perhaps you believe the writer "is just trying*to scare you for his own profit, but that is not so, and next week Friday you are sure to see the soundness of advice that has been printed right here from time to time. Now you've come to the place where it is either pick up or get out. Are you going to win? If not, why'areyou trying? True, people are going tobe.satisfied with the merchants priies, because they are worth getting and any amount of work. If you would be first, then you must work for more votes. Be sure aud have your friends trade with the following merchants who give a 25 vote coupon with / each dollar cash purchase. Have them ask for these coupons and save them for you. W. VV.

On Saturday and Sunday a heroic effort was made to eave the city from the consequences of a fresh German visitation. The flfht around Melle on Saturday turned to the advantage of the defenders, as did that on Sunday. The combatants ware within 100 yards of one another's positions- Hundreds of wounded were lying unaided and uncared for la the immediate front of the two opposing armies. The Germans' rifle fire during the night had been continuous. They fired on every one approaching their lines, and did not discriminate between combatants and aoucombatante. Retreat Decided On. **It was a critical moment There was not mach time for reflection, and after a careful review of the situation a general retreat was decided upon. The Germane appeared to be in great strength, but the defending force was holding on undismayed by the fury of the German infantry assaults, supported by heavy artillery. "There were no trains from Ghent towards the coast towns, but vehicles of every description, from dogcarts to ramshackle horse wagons, were requisitioned, and the Inhabitants of *3hent fled with some show of confusion from the enemy approaching their gates. By midnight the last ejtlaen who could scrape together money to hire a vehicle of any kind, the last soldier, and a large proportion of the wounded had quitted the city, baking the road to Bruges and Osfcmd. T h e streets of the city were sitont and deserted, and the Hotel de Pocte, which had been used as a residence by the headquarters staff and the correspondents, was practically «u*Pty. , Red Croee Nurses Brave. There are It wounded In the hotel attended by two nurses of the Belgian Red Cross society, who bravely refused to quit their charges, even Whan the doctors and stretcher bearo n abandoned their posts and vanished from Ghent The wounded were tn a feverish state of excitement Somehow, the news of the evacuation peached their ears, and they implored the nurses to have thorn transported elsewhere, for not one of them relished the idea of falling wounded Into the hands' of the Germans. "It was in vain wo sought aid from the city authorities, who were more or less distracted at the prospect of a fresh German incursion. They frankly said they had no aid to give and no doubt they were right Fears fer Brother. "At • a. at. the wounded were still tn the hotel, fretting at the long delay. Mo vehicle, not even a dog cart, wee -obtainable, and Germans might appear at any moment "One Of the nurses. Mile, Baerdeanker, whoso brother was severely wounded and waa lying In the hotel, had bravely faced the ordeal of the iung night vigil, but now aha began to show some signs of tho emotion ghat waa racking her sisterly heart "Whan things looked the blackest Mr. Van Hee, the American viee-eoneul, brought his automobile to the hotel door. Ho was on nil way to Bruspais, and had called for a friend who waa to accompany him.

This is his account of the bombardment aa told to the Daily Chronicle correspondent: "For days we heard the sound of heavy gunfire and were (old of tho fall, one after another, of the outer forts. It soon became apparent that nothing could avail against the great German cannon, and in conjunction with other neutrals we endeavored to mediate with the Germans, to spare, at any rate, some of the most valuable buildings of world-wide Interest But the negotiations failed to lead to a successful result MI had intended to remain In Antwerp throughout the bombardment which we saw was now inevitable, but I was told to clear out of the city, aa its destruction was inevitable. "I did not realise until almost too late the horror which was coming. At 11 o'clock at night we were going to bed, when we were roused by frightful noises tn the air, reminding us of previous visits of a Zeppelin. "Soon we realised that the bombard* meat had begun, and then I had tho most horrible experience of my life. "I went with my family to the basement and we crouched there all night. The shells, falling every few minutes, came with a dreadful whistling sound, followed by a thunder clap of explosion and collapse of buildings. "Opposite the consulate is tho Home for Old Polks. Its front waa torn out by a shell. Some .of the debris was scattered over my house, and then a shell came over us, and fell on a two-story building, crumpling it up entirely and setting it on fire. After this another shell blew out the facade of a house lower down on our street As tho dawn came wo were wearied out and the members of my family collapsed utterly from fright and the strain, "So wo decided to endeavor to leave the city. I succeeded in communicating with my chauffeur and got my car, but I did not know where to go, being left with nothing but what wo had on and exposed every moment to exploding shells. "With my wife and daughter and two servants and a refugee's child I crossed the pontoon bridge over tho Scheldt It took us four hours to do this, tho streets being filled with every kind of vehicle and a dense crowd of, fugitives. The scene waa indescribably dreadful, everybody being^ moved by the same desire to gat away from tha awful horror. "From Antwerp to Ghent tha roads are a mass of fleeing humanity. Aa wa left wa saw vast volumes of smoke arising from Antwerp from tho burning buildings aud biasing petroleum tanks. Instead of two hours to Ghent it took us three, owing to the traffic. One of the Gorman bis tuna situated near Vllvorde and a large number of comparatively smaller guns havo joined in the bombardment" Big Guno Not Used on City. Paris,—The German commander at Antwerp says tha famous 16%-inch guns wore not used on tha town it* salt They would havo boon used, however, had tha surrender not em curred when It did.

The Belgians, severely punished, but always in tho thick of the fighting, prevented the Germans from crossing the River Yser. The Germane are in great force, 400 guns, 40,000 infantry and some cavalry having been rushed from Ostend to tho Yser on Saturday. These troops had been drawn from all Quarters, from Lunevilie, Nancy and arussela, and were weary from lncee* saat -marching and fighting. While King Albert's army, with support from a new British army and from French marines and detachments from General Joffre's line in France, checked the German advance along the ieacoast, the loft wing of the Allien in northern France made notable progress, delivering a series of blows against von Boehm and von Kluck which forced tho Germans to surrender Armentierea and villages to the south. Gereral Joffre, according to official reports, has driven the German right wing about 19 miles to the northeast in the last four days. Severe Fighting at Belfert Fighting has boon renewed at Belfort, where the Germans once again are assailing the fortification with mortars and two violent night attacks by the Germans to the north and again to the eati of St Gie were repulsed by.the French with severe losses to the enemy. Not only have the French been able to hold tho advantage gained in their advance against the outer works of Mete, but they havo now pushed forward their advanced positions to within nine miles of the fortresses. Heavy reinforoementa are being rushed to their aid to moot the increased strength being thrown behind the Gorman line la, this action. The moat gigantic engagement of the war is now being fought just across the border in western Belgium, but it is ignored in the official dispatches because of the lack of progress to report Tho fighting is aa yet in tho preliminary stages, for tho numbers actually engaged are too groat and tho weight of the support both In big gun* and tho enormous strength In men available is so evenly divided that tho greateat deliberation la being exercised by tho rival oommandera.

Angy's secret hope that Aba would change his mind and abandon the projected trip to the beach remained unfulfilled, in spite of the fact that cold weather suddenly descended on the South side, and the bay became first "scummed" over with ice, and then frozen so, solid that all its usual craft disappeared, and the "scooters" took possession of the field. Abe and Samuel held stubbornly to their reckless intentions; and the sisters, sharing Angy's anxiety, grew so-; licltous almost to the point of active interference. They withheld nothing In the way of counsel, criticism, or admonition which could be offered. "Naow," said Mrs. Homan In her most commanding tones at the end of a final discussion in the big hall, on the evening before the date set for departure, "ef yew're bound, bent an* determined, Brother Abe, to run in the face of Providence, yew want tew mind one thing, an' wear yer best set of flannels termorrer." "Sho, thar hain't no danger of me ketchln' cold," decried Abe. "I didn't say yer thickest set of flannels; I said yer best When a man gits throwed out onto the ice kerflump, the thickness of his clo'es ain't gotn' to help him much. The fust thing* I alius taught my husbands was to have everything clean an' whole on, when thar was any likelihood of a sudden death." "Yew 'spect me tew go an' prink up fer a sudden death?".thundered Abraham. "I hain't never heard tell on a scooter a-killln' nobody yit; it's them plagued iceboats up state what—" "That's all very well," persisted Mrs. Homan, not to be diverted from her subject; "but when old Doctor Billings got run over by the train at Mastic Crossin' on Fourth o' July eight year ago, hie wife told me with her own lips that she never would git over It, cus he had his hull big toe stlckin' out o' the end of his stockln'. I tell yew, these days we've got tew prepare fer a violent end." The patient Angy somewhat tartly retorted, that during the last week she had spent even more time upon father's wardrobe than she had upon her own; while Abe inwardly rejoiced to think that for seven days to come— seven whole days—he and Angy would be free from the surveillance of the sisters. ': Mrs. Homan, in no way nonplussed, boomed on: "Thar, I most fast** ebout his necktie. 'Courea, they don't dxejg up manh. at the station; but jest the same that air tie o' yourn. Brother Aba, is a disgrace. I told yew yew'd spile it awearin' it tew bed. Naow, I got a red an' green plaid what belonged to my second stepson. Henry O.

An' yew kin have that necktie jeet aa well as not Naow, dont say a word; I'm better able to part with It 'n yew be not to take it." No one aver attempted the fruitless task of stopping Mrs. Homan once fully launched; but when at last shs permitted her back to rest against her chair, folding her arms with the manner of one who makes a sacrifice In a worthy cause, Abe broke into aa explosive protest If any one fretted hia in his some* what fretful convalescence, it was this grenadier member of the household, who since Blossy's marriage had endeavored to fill the yacant post of "guardeen angel." "Mis' Holman," he sputtered, rising to his feet, "I wouldn't wear a red an' green plaid tie to a eel's funeral!" Then with a somewhat ungracious "good-night" to the company In general, he trudged across the hall and up the stairs, muttering something to himself about a "passel of meddlers." Well-meaning Miss Abigail, who had been nodding half asleep/roused herself to call after him, and he, paused unwillingly to heed. "Naow, don't yew lose no sleep ternight," she admonished, "a-worrytn' erbout the change in yer vlttleC I told Cap'n Sam'l that hardtack an' seen like wouldn't never do fer yer weak stummick, an' he promised me .faithful he'd send somebody tew the mainland every day fer milk."

X. CHAPTER XIII. The Prodigal's Departure. Abraham was up betimes In the morning to greet a day crisp and cold, quiet yet with sufficient breese stirring the evergreens in the yard butside to make him predict a speedy voyage. The old man was nervous and excited, and, In spite of his buoyant anticipations, somewhat oppressed, now that the day had actually come. with a sense of timidity and fear. Still, he put on a bold face while Angeline fastened his refractory collar and tied his cravat. This was neither Mrs. Homan's offering nor Abe's own old, frayed tie, but a new black one which_had mysteriously been thrust through the crack under the door during the night So, the last finishing touches having been put upon his toilet and Angy having made ready by lamplight for her own trip, even before the old man was awake, there seemed nothing left to be done until the breakfast bell should ring. Abe sat down, and looking hard at his open carpetbag wondered audibly if they had "everythln' In." The last time they two bad packed Abe's wardrobe far » visit to Bleak Hill bad been many yeejrAago, whea Samuel Barby, though some what Abe's junior, waa keeper of the life-saving stattsa, sad Abe was to be gone for a whole son's duty,. Then all of his sions had been stowed in a long, boleter- like canvas bag for the short voyage. Bo|b Aagy aa4 her husband recalled that time now—the occasion of their first and almost of their last real separation. "A weeim pass In ao time," murmured Angy vary quickly, with a catch in her voice. "Lookin' ahead, though, seven days seems awful long* when yer old; but— ,Qb, law.. yes; a week*!! spass in no time," sbe repeated. "Only dew be keerful, Abe. aft' dont take cold."

I knows it well enough." Addie could not read, but she knew a blue ribbon with gold lettering when she saw it. and therefore had no trouble in finding it, and fastened it promptly on the dress of her mistress. Mrs. Phlllipotts was too busy greeting her friends to observe that they smflsd when thye shook hands with her—some of them almost laughed.

In local and county politics he has been a conspicuous figure, and always as a loyal Democrat.

I spent a night and a day with these men, and left them rather hysterical myself only a few hours ago. We parted company and still it seems to me like a bad dream from which It is hard to wake. This regiment is mad6 up almost entirely of Welshmen and has one of the finest records. It was visited and congratulated by Field Marshal French. It has been mentioned in official dispatches for bravery, and now it is paying the price. Cool Under Fire. The men did not begin to break until after the tenseness had passed. 60 long as they were under fire they Were, cool and in command of themselves. But the position they held was so exposed to fire that they had never a moment's rest, and after a month, when they were ordered back, they went to pieces. I had spent the night before within a mile of them. When I turned south from the Aisne after a night in the trenches I took refuge at a farm on a rich plateau that borders the river. It is a big establishment, employing doxens of men at ordinary times, and the house itself is built on a quadrangle 200 by 300 feet. It was almost big enough to shelter a regiment English Captain Appears. The owner and his son are in the army and the only persons there are two old women, an old man, and a fir!. They took me in, gave me a food dinner, and we were sitting . around an open fire when a bell on the great, door to the courtyard rang. We went out to find a tall English captain and six sergeants. The captain explained that he had been sent ahead to find billets for his regiment, which had been relieved by French troops. He spoke In a rapid, nervous way, and the six sergeants seemed strangely fidgety. I acted as Interpreter and assured them that the farm could shelter three companies and that a farm two kilometers farther on could take care of the rest. Leaving three sergeants, the captain and the other three and I went on to the other farm and arranged for billets. There two sergeants remained. One returned with us and . took the road back into the lines to show the approaching regiment the way. Places for 81 x Hundred. All this time I kept noticing how nervous all these men were; but it was not until I went into the comfortable hall of the farm again that I noticed how bad It was. I had arranged for them to go to bed, but I could not induce them to do so. The sergeants prepared places for 600 men, but all night they kept knocking about with lanterns. There were beds for all; they admitted they had not seen beds for six weeks, and they professed a desire to get into them, but did not The captain was the wont example I saw of a strong man going so completely to pieces. He stood 6 feet 8 inches and weighed about two hundred pounds in bones and sinew—one of the best types of Englishmen. I knew by his type that he by habit and training was reserved, but his tongue was loosened and he talked for hours. I was learning astonishing things, bat tried many times to get him to go to bed. But he would not even take off his shoes. He said he could sleep better in an armchair before the ArcV and in the and he never closed his eyes.- 8tory of Leader. I had not slept the night before, and about two o'clock In the morning fell Into a heavy sleep, waking at nearly 'four o'clock. He was sitting, wide eyed, staring at the fire, and smoking. A few minutes later others came In. The captain said: "Sleep? How could we sleep, sitting tense all night In the trenches, knowing that the Germans were less than one hundred yards away and wera watching every moment for an opportunity to overrun us? Even in ijse day wo had to tie Just behind our trenches, always alert steeping half * o hour at a time, waked by rifles on -either side, and knowing that' the country was filled with spies, telling Vrerything we did. Worse Than ftavagoa. 1 am a soldier. I follow war as a profession. I have fought in South Africa and have been In Indian campwigaa, 1 thought I knew what war Van, bat never have rcea battles between ****** tribes so fieroa as the fight hack there.

I tried to get them to go to bed, but by dawn there were not mors than fifty asleep.

"Some of the trenches are provided with overhead cover, which gives pro-^occupied by strong forces tection from the weather as well as from shrapnel balls and splinters of shells. Considerable ingenuity has been exercised by the men in naming these shelters. Among the favorite designations are the 'Hotel Cecil,' the 'Ritz hotel/ the 'Billet Doux hotel' and the 'Rue Dormir.* "On the road barricades also are to be found boards bearing this notice: This way to the Prussians.' "Obstacles of every kind abound and at night each side can hear the enemy driving pickets for en|anglements, digging trous-de-loup, or working forward by sapping. In some places, obstacles have been constructed by both sides so close together that some wag suggested that each side provide working parties to perform this fatiguing duty alternately, inasmuch as the work of the enemy is almost indistinguishable from ours and serves the same purpose. Quarries Make Spacious Halls. . "Quarries and caves, to which allusion already has been.made, provide ample accommodation for whole bat* talions and most comfortable are the shelters which have been constructed in them. The northern slopes of the Aisne valley fortunately are very steep and this to a great extent protects us from the enemy's shells, many of which pass harmlessly over our heads to burst in the meadows along the river bank. Bomb Dropped on Ammunition. "It already has been mentioned that, according to information obtained from the enemy, 15 Germans were killed by a bomb dropped upon the ammunition wagon of a cavalry column. It was thought at the time that this might have been the work of one of our airmen, who reported that he had dropped a hand grenade on this convoy and had fien got a birdseye view of the finest display of fireworks he had ever seen. "From corroborative evidence it appears that this was the case; that the grenade thrown by him probably was the cause of the' destruction of a 8mall convoy carrying field gun and howitzer ammunition, which now has been found a total wreck.

He was a keen-faced, boyish little man with a laugh bigger than himself, but he always wore a worried air the day before his paper a weekly, went to pres, and he wore that worried look now. Touching his hand to his fur cap, he informed Samuel and Abe that news was "as scarce as hen's teeth;" then added: "What's doing?" "Oh, nawthin', nawthin*," hastily replied Samuel, who believed that hfe hated publicity, as he gave Abe's fool a sly kick. "We was jest a-gwine ter take a leetle scooter sail." He adjusted the skirt of his coat in an effort to hide Abe's carpetbag, his own canvas satchel, and a huge market basket of good things which Blossy had cooked for the life-savers.

Samuel added, shading his eyee- with his hand and peering out upon the gleaming surface of the bay, over which the white sails of scooters were darting like a flock of huge, singlewinged birds. "Eph's racing with Captain Bill Green," replied the newspaper man. "Captain Bill's got an extra set of new runners at the side of his scooter and wants to test them.

Seven minutes had been the record time for the five-mile sail over the ice to Bleak Hill, but Samuel and Abe, both vowing delightedly that the skipper couldn't go too fast for them, stepped into the body of the boat and squatted down on the hard boards. They grinned at each other as the scooter started and Eph jumped aboard—grinned and waved to the people on the shore, their proud old thoughts crying: "I guess folks will see now that we're as young as we ever was!" They continued to grin as the 'joat spun into full flight and went whizzing over the ice. whizzing and bumping and bouncing. Both their faces grew red, their two pairs of eyes began to water, their teeth began to chatter; but Samuel shouted at the top of his voice in defiance of the gale: "Abe, we've cut the apron strings!" "Hyguy!" Abe shouted in return, his heart flying as fast as the sail, back to youth -and manhood again, back to truant days and the vacation time of boyhood. "Hy-guy. Sam'l!

That the wind of projectiles causes the death of soldiers is a theory advanced by Professor Laurent of Brussels, who read a paper on this subject before the French Acadamy of Science. During the Balkan war. Professor Laurent said he had noticed soldiers who, seemingly, were troubled from cerebrospinal disturbances, although having escaped a bullet. 8ometimes the victims became cataleptic and in less serious cases there were symptoms of falr.iing, tingling sensations and par tial paralysis. In instances where this mysterious infliction caused death, autopsies were held and these invariably revealed no nervous lesions. Then It occurred to Professor Laurent that the variations of atmospheric pressure caused by the passing of the projectile had an effect upon the nerve cells, causing inhibition. Dr. Matigon. during the Russia-Japan war. reported similar cases, particularly after a severe bombardment. As projectiles gain no* only in size but in speed, as the years go on A just what the toll from wind will be in the next great conflict is hard to forecast. Order of the Bath by Law. The American doctor who is denouncing the bath as an evil influence on health would flird many supporters at Cardiff. For there the makers of patent fuel (briquettes), were given the Order of the Bath by law and resented it. Thus an official report to the home secretary expresses the sincere belief of these workers: "One man said that tbe taking of baths had aged the man ten years, and most of them declared that they suffered great agony every day they used these baths." Which prepares one somewhat for that remark of the old provost at a suggestion that baths should be provided at Oxford college: "Baths!1' he snorted, "why, the young men are up only eight weeks!"—London Chronicle. Expected a Real Boat Ride. A contest, for the enlargement of the Sunday school, entitled "A Trip to Palestine," had been plumed by the superintendent.

BREEDING FOR THE FUTURE Industrial Type of Horses Will Be In Demand at the Conclusion of the War. The American farmer who seeks to take advantage of the horse famine now being made by Krupp and Creusot guns should dismise all thought of supplying the armies now in the field. In all probability the war will be oyer before his first foals are weaned. What he should^o is breed industrial types of horses to fill the gaps made by the present war, with perhaps a small percentage of the type of horses actually preferred for military use. Wars may not ceaBe with the end of the present masterpiece of deviltry, but there is good reason to believe that martial glory will be at a die* count in Europe for many yeari to come. Let us get ready, therefore, to supply the needs of peace, rather than to satisfy the demands of a Moloch who soon may be hurled from his throne. American Flags In Demand.

About thirty years ago he went to Fowlerville. Twenty-seven years ago he was married and engaged in the stock and meat business, working for W, A. Benjiman. His attention to business is shown by the fact that he lost only one day in eight years. After leaving Mr. Benjiman's employ he conducted the meat business for himself for about twenty years. During the past year he has lived in the village of Howell, where hi9 pleasing personality has won for him a host of friends. Mr. Krause is a mau of good habits, strong aud healthy, and if elected will make a competent and efficient sheriff. He can be depended upon to perform his duties, iu enforcing the law and giving everyone a fair deal. He* will have the judgement aud discretion required in finding out the guilty and protecting the innocent.

Progessive and intelligent state legislation, including a revised primary law and a revised compensation law. Qualifications for the place George A. Barnes was born in this district, at Howell, graduated from Howell high school and the University of Michigan. Edited the Livingston Republican at Howell for two years. Owned and edited the Bellevue Gazette at Bellevue four years, and resigned as a Presidential Republican postmaster two years ago, to come to Flint to engage in the printing business. Is now president and manager of the Flint Printing Co., one of the most enterprising and successful publishing nouses in Michigan. Among the people who know him, he has the reputation of being honest, square, clean-cut and busy so if he does not get to see you personally you will know that it is because he has to work for his living.—Adv. (X) George A. Barnes. Political Advertising Political Advertising Willis L Lyons Candidate For Prosecuting Attorney Republican Ticket SECOND TERM In the past all Prosecuting Attorneys with a good record have been given a second term. We contend Willis Lyons has a good record. He gave up his office and moved to the court house, in other words he made the county business his main work, other business secondary. The stone yard provided by the Supervisors to get rid of the tramp expense has not been used. That was cared for in another way. The criminal expense of the county was reduced $4952.62 the first year over the previous year. Only five cases have been lost out of 150. The work has been carried on in a quiet careful and conservative manner and everyone given a square deal. Not a dollar has been paid by the county to another lawyer to assist. He has the good will of many but his friends should remember that votes count on election day. —Livingston Republican. John A.

From * small child she has been taught <j|hat a keen interest should be tak- Sin all matters pertaining to an ucation and the general school system. Her time in school was well spent as an earnest scholar with the same perseverence we see in her work after graduation. She is a graduate of the Howell high schpol and also holds a iife certificate from the Normal at Ypsiianti. Mrs. Ixmen is a woman, of Charming personality, and is a hard working woman who must earn her own living. She has had nine years of experience in teaching; three years as principal of the west ward school in Howell, leaving th|s work, much to the regret of he* patrons,Jx> become a teacher in the County Normal at New London, Wisconsin, where she assisted in training teachers for rural schools. At the present time, Mrs. Lemen is again a teacher in the Howell schools. Mrs. Lemen, if elected, ^will certainly be a /credit to Die people who vote for her and will do all that lies in her power to benefit themtrons of rural schools. Clark H. Miner Democrat Candidate For County Clerk To the voters of the South part of the County, your attention is again called to the fact that election day is close at hand, when ypu by your vote will be called upon again to elect officers to fill the several offices of the County for the next two years. Clark H. Miner, the present County Clerk and Democratic nominee for reelection has made a record for himseli which entitles him to the confidence and respect of his constituants. And should the voters of the County desire to continue the same kind of service, no mistake will be made in re-electing Mr. Miner, to this important position for another term. The duties of the office have been carefully looked after and not one word of criticism has ever been heard against his ability. Thanking the voters for the past favors conferred upon him and soliciting their support in the coming election with a promise that if elected he will endeavor to give the office his personal attention and will try to improve the record heretofore made. County Clerk He is a young man that the Republican party elected for their candidate for that office, feeling that he v. as capable and worthy of such an honor at the hands of the voters of this county. Two years ago he made a sacrifice run against a man" who was seeking his* second term, that it might put him in line for the coming election, as the present occupant of that office only asked for support for two terms, and is now asking for a third. Therefore he feels justified in appealing to all parties for their support at the coming election, and if elected will endeavor to perform the duties of the office in such a manner that you will be pleased with the support given him.

'^•iC-* Ijrawi Alfalfa, one of the oldest and most widespread of crops, can be grown In tbls country as far as climate is concerned, in every state, but in the humid sections it Is very exacting in the. character of noil and treatment required The following Itst.of "don W published by the U. S. department of agriculture in Farmers' Bulletin No. 339 will, therefore, be of interest: Ten Don'ts for the Alfalfa Grower. Don't fail to provide for ample inoculation. Don't sow poor or weedy seed, Don't sow on a weedy soil. , Don't sow on any but a sweet welllimed soil. Don't sow on poorly drained soil. Don't sow on any but a finely-prepared, well-settled seed bed. Don't pasture the first or second year. Don't lose the leaves; they constitute the best part of the hay. Don't seed a large acreage to begin with. Experiment on a small area first. Don't, give up. Many prominent alfalfa growers finally succeeded only after many failures. The first essential, as these "don'ts" show, is proper soil. A deep, fertile. well-drained soil, rich in lime and reasonably free from weeds is indispensable, and It Is useless to attempt to grow alfalfa on any other kind of land. The lack of any one of these qualities is very apt to be the cause of failure especially in the East and Bouth, where at best alfalfa is produced with some difficulty. The plant 10 a deep-feeding one and usually sends Its roots down many feet to obtain food and moisture which are out of reach of the shallowrooted crops. . On soil that lacks depth alfalfa is unable to utilize Its deep-feeding roots and is, therefore. less able to withstand the attsck of surface-feeding weeds. An exception to this seems to be found1 In the case of soils that are underlaid by limestone at a depth of some eighteen inches or two feet. Weeds are, in fact, one of the greatest enemies of alfalfa. Tie young plants are very tender and are apt to be killed during their early stages of growth. Forjthis reason it is good practice to raise some cultivated crop on the ground for two or three seasons before alfalfa is .planted. If this is not practicable, some such crop as cowpeaj. which naturally prevent the growth of weeds, can be seeded. Alfalfa sown in the spring is especially susceptible to harm from weeds, and spring seeding, therefore, should be avoided wherever possible. It is, however, preferable in Minnesota, Wisconsin and the Dakotas where any but spring or early summer stands are very apt to winterkill. In general, the principle underlying the time of seeding is to sow as far tn advance as possible of what promises to be the most trying season for the young plants. In the East and South a late summer seeding is usually best This enables an earlier COUNTRY AWAKE TO DANGER and gives alfalfa ample time to make a growth before the winter sets in; a fact which gives the plants a good start in the following spring, and aids them successfully to resist the inroad of weeds. The conditions that determine the time for seeding alfalfa indirectly determine also the crops which should precedf it. Where late summer seeding Is/ practiced a truck crop which matures early will enable one crop to be secured that season and still allow time for the preparation of the land for alfalfa. Under such circumstances the fertilizer demanded by the truck crop will probably be sufficient for the alfalfa. The_ efficiency of green manure cropsTn increasing the humus content of the soil makeo them especially valuable as a preliminary crop for alfalfa. If the soil is not fertilized in this way, or does not obtain the benefit of manure used for previous cash crops, well-rottec barnyard mtnure or J commercial fertilizers must be employed if the best results are hoped for. It must always be borne in mind that alfalfa requires rich soil. It cannot be grown on any kind of land that happens to lie handy for the farmer. On the other hand, with proper conditions and care Its yield will be sufficient to Justify the use of the rlchect and best drained land on the farm. In the East it is usually best to develop the fertility of some of the high, rolling land and seed that. Bottom lands should be avoided; not only is the danger from weeds on such soils greater, but alfalfa absolutely requires well-drained land. Overflows from streams are usually fatal to it during its growing period, In fact, it is unusual for It to survive more than 24 hours of complete submergence, although during Us dormant period in the winder it is less susceptible. Not the least difficulty that the alfalfa grower must face is the necessity for thorough inoculation of the soil In regions where the proper bacteria are lot supplied by nature. Throughout the western half of the United States inoculatio i In general does not appear to be necessary, but in the East the grower who neglects this precaution is practically certain to lose his time. There are two methods now in general use. The bacteria may be supplied either by scattering the soil from a successful alfalfa field, or by cultures. The artificial -cultures are supplied by the United States department of agricult u r e and their use explained n detail in thp printed matter which accompanies the bottle of culture. After being mixed with the clean water and certain chemicals these cultures are applied to the seed, which is then dried in a shaded place and sown as soon as possible. When this method is successful at all it appears to be fully as much so as the scattering of •oil. _ • i n . Do black hens make you think of crop to be removed from th.

Only in the states of Arizona, Idaho, Nevada, Wyoming and Alaska has the subject been given no legislative consideration. State tuberculosis sanatoria to the number of 42 have been ebtablished in 33 different states. Special laws providing for the establishment of local hospitals by municipalities or counties have been passed in 14 states. In 34 states laws are in force providing for the reporting and registration of living cases of tuberculosis. In four states. New York, New Jersay, Wisconsin and Minnesota, special laws have been enacted giving state and local health authorities power to remove and detain tuberculous persons who menace the health of their families or associates. Six states, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri. Minnesota, New York and Texas, have laws which give the people the privilege of voting at general or special elections on the establishment of county or municipal tuberculosis hospitals. Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, Wisconsin and Washington grant subsidies ranging from $3 to $5 per week to *uch local hospitals. Laws prohibiting spitting in public places have been enacted in more than twenty states.

AMrioh County ScbMl Commissionar Mvingst^i County Republican Candidate For SECOND TERM The great Horace Mann once said that education is oar only political safety, and he is not alone in this idea. From the begiaing of American History our forefathers believed* in public schools. Much sacrifice has been made and is bein^ made to provide schools for our children and colleges for the preparation of teachers who are given the vital task of training these young minds. At the present time the people demand that high standards in education be maintained, that our schools prog ret. 8 along with other lines of industry. They demand good teachers and good superintendents. At the coming election an important school office is to be filled by the voters, that ,af County Superintendent or Commissioner. This office stands at tut head of educational matters in the county. The duties of the office are many. In addition to the work of visiting the schools and advising with teachers and officers, the commissioner conducts examinations, audits directors reports, attends to the truancy work, conducts teachers institutes, etc. You can readily see what it means to make a change, in this office. It is the policy of village school boards to retain teachers and superintendents as lon# 'as they give proficient service. Should not the same be true of county superintendent? 1^ it customary to give other cowaty officers a second term If they have made a good rocord. WhV not toe commissioner^ schools?

Impressions at the end are those of some great industrial undertaking, with powerful machinery in full operation and endless supply tra'ins bringing up the raw materials for fabrication rather than of war as pictured. Sees Battle From Hillside. From a point of observation on a hillside above St. Mlhlel, the great battlefield on which a German army Is endeavoring to break through the line of barrier forts between Verdun and Toul, and the opposing French forces could be surveyed In its entirety." In the foreground lay the level valley of the Mouse with the towns, of St. Mihiel and Bannoncour nestling upon the green landscape. Beyond and behind the valley rose a tier of hills, on which the French obstinately hold an intrenched position, checking the point of the German wedge, while French forces from north and south beat upon the sides of the triangle trying to force it back across the Meiise and out from the vitals of the French fortress line. Bursting shells threw up their columns of white or black fog around the edge of the panorama. Cloudlets of white smoke here and there showed where a position was being brought under shrapnel fire. An occasional aeroplane could be picked out, hovering over the lines, but the infantry and the field battery positions could not be discerned, even with a highpower field glass, so cleverly had the armies taken cover. Reaches Zone of Ruin. A few miles beyond Gorze the French frontier was passed and from this point on the countryside, with its deserted farms, rotting shocks of wheat, and uncut fields of grain, trampled down by infantry and scarred with trenches, excavations for batteries, and its pits caused by exploding shells, showed war's devastating heel prints. At St. Benolt a party of some three hundred French prisoners was encountered, waiting outside headquarters. They were all fine young fellows, in striking contrast to the elderly reservist type which predominates In the German prison camps. They were evidently elite troops of the line and were treated almost with deference by their guards, a detachment of bearded landwehr men from South Germany. They were the survivors of the garrison of the Roman camp fort who had put up such a desperate and spirited defense as to win the whole-hearted admiration and respect of the German officers and men. f Held Out to Bitter End. Their guns had been silenced and trenches were pushed up by an overwhelming force of pioneers and infantry to within five yards of their works before they retreated from the advanced intrenchments to the casements of the fort Here they maintained a stout resistance and refused every summons to surrender. Hand grenades were brought up, bound to a backing of boards, and exploded against the openings of the casements, filling these with showers of steel splinters. Volunteers, creeping up to the dead angle of the casements where the fire of the defenders 'could not reach them, directed smoke tubes and stinkpots against apertures In the citadel, filling the rooms with suffocating smoke and gases. "Have you had enough?" they were asked, after the first smoke treatment "No," was the defiant answer. The treatment was repeated a second and third time, the response to the demand for surrender each time growing weaker until finally the defenders were no longer able to raise their rifles and the fort was taken. Saluted by Foes. When the survivors of the plucky garrison were able to march out revived by the fresh air, they found their late opponents presenting arms before them In recognition of their gallant ftand. They were .granted the most 7 honorable terms of surrender, their eAoers were allowed to retain their *rwor4s and on their march toward an honorable captivity they were everywketv greeted with expressions of re- «peet and admiration. -. Beyond Bt Benolt and Cote Lorj* atne * range of wooded hills running ftorth; and south along the east bank J <0f the Mease rises m steeply terraced French line of fortresses beyond the Mouse. The French had fortified these slopes with successive rows of trenches, permitting line above line of Infantry to fire against an advancing enemy. For days a desperate struggle was waged for the possession of the heights, which was imperative for the German campaign against the line of fortresses. The correspondent had no opportunity to inspect at close range the 16%• inch guns, the "growlers" of Liege, Namur, and other fortresses, which Krupp and the German army uncovered as the surprise of this war. Sees Battery lq* Action. Their smaller sisters >w$e less coy. A dismounted battery 'of the intermediate caliber, details of which are not for publication, was encountered by the roadside awaiting repairs to the heavy traction engine in whose train it travels in sections along the country roads, while the German 8¼-inch (21 centimeter) and the Austrian 12« inch (30.5 centimeter) batteries were seen in action. The heavy German battery lay snug* ly hid in a wood on the rolling heights of the Cote Lorraine. Better off than the French, whose aviators had for four days repeatedly scrutinized every acre of land in the vicinity looking for these guns, we had fairly accurate directions how to find the battery, but even then it required some search and doubling back and forth before a languid cannoneer, lounging by the roadside, pointed with thumb over shoulder toward the hidden guns. These and the artiUerymen were enjoing their midday rest, a pause which sets in every day with the regularity of the luncheon hour in a factory. The guns, two in this particular position, stood beneath a screen of thickly branching trees, the muzzles pointing toward round openings in this leafy roof. Fires Two Exhibition 8hots. It was the noon pause, but the lieutenant in charge of the guns, anxious to show them off to advantage, volunteered to telephone the battery commander, in his observation post four miles nearer the enemy, for permission to fire a shot or two against a village in which French troops were gathering for the attack. This bat* tery just had finished with Les Paroc hes, a French barrier fort across the Meuse, and was not devoting its attention to such minor tasks. Soon the orderly reported that the battery commander authorized two shots against the village in question. At command the gun crew sprang to their posts about the mortar, which was already adjusted for its target, a little less than six miles away, the gun muzzle pointing skyward at an angle of about sixty degrees. As the gun was fired the projectile could be seen and followed in Its course for several hundred feet . Before the report died away the crew were busy as bees about the gun. One man with the hand elevating gear rapidly cranked the barrels down to a level position ready for loading. A second threw open the breech and ex* tracted the brass cartridge case, carefully wiping it out before depositing it among the empties; four more seized the heavy shell and lifted it to cradle opposite the breech, a seventh rammed it home; number eight gingerly Inserted the brass cartridge, half filled with a vaselinelike explosive, the breech was closed, and the gun pointer rapidly cranked the gun again into position. In less than thirty seconds the men sprang back from the gun, again loaded and aimed. 8eeond Shot Fires Village. A short wait and the observer from his post near the village ordered "next shot, 60 meters nearer." The gun pointer made the slight correction > necessary, the mortar again sent its shell purring through the air against the village, wtoich this time, It was learned, broke Into flames, and while the men went back to their noonday rest the lieutenant explained the fine point* of his beloved guns. One man, as has been seen, could manipulate the elevation gear with one hand easily and quickly; ten of his horses could take the mortar, weighing eight tons, anywhere; it could fire up to 500 shots per day. He was proud of the skillful concealment of his guns, which Bad been firing for four days from the same position without being discovered; although French aviators had located all the sister batteries, all of which had suffered Ion from shrapnel Are. Along the roadside through the Cote Lorraine were here and there graves with rude crosses and penciled inscriptions. At the western edge of the forest the battle panorama of the Meuse vstttey suddenly opened-out, the hflls tailing away again steeply to the level valley bed. The towns below 8 t Mihiel asd Bannoncour teemed abso- ^jsjlopc* several hundred feet from the lately deserted, not a person being ' dses^tks?

Grand Rapids.—Charles Briggs, a switchman, stood on the running board of his slowly-moving engine and gesticulated wildly to the driver of a brewery truck crossing the track a few yards ahead.

RELICS TO BE PRESERVED Mexican Authorities Make Discoveries of Parts of Bodies of Maximilianand His Generals. The heart of Gen. Tomas Mejia and fragments of the bodieB of Emperor Maximilian and General Miramon. all of whom were executed together on the Cerro de las -Campas, just outside the city of Queretaro, when Maximilian surrendered there to the forces of President Juarez, were found recently in a search which was made by the constitutionalist authorities of the library of the house of Luis Garcia Pimentel, in Call© de Donceles, No. 68. The house of Garcia Pimentel is at present occupied by General Davlla Sanchez. When the constitutionalist authorities were going through the library of this residence, taking an inventory of what they found there, they came upon the grewsome relics, which were carefully preserved. The heart of Mejia and the portions of the body of the emperor and his other trusted general had been kept, it is said, by Doctor Liceoga, who performed the autopsy upon the bodies after their execution, and acquired from him by Garcia Pimentel as relies. They probably will be donated to a museum, it is said, by the authorities.— Mexican Herald. ITCHING BURNING ECZEMA R. F. D.

In this age of co-operation, in which manufacturing and commercial interests hav3 attained wonderful. development and success by merging their resources, it is not to be wondered at that co-operation has slowly but inevitably wended its way into rural life. The old method of individualism is gradually giving way to the cooperative spirit and the resuit is a greatly reduced cost of living and expense of farming. Michigan farmers are leading the co-cperative-< movement and it i s gradually being extended into every feature of community life. Egypt'* Flood Tim*. June 15 Is In Egypt nn anxious time, for then It la thatfthere cornea the first Indication of the annual flood. Tbe amount of the rise has been accurately recorded every yfear from 3000 B. C. to the present time, for there Is only a foot or two between starvation and plenty, and between plenty and devastation. The rise is recorded by the nilometer constructed by the Caliph Mutawakhul more than ten centuries ago, on the Island of Rhoda, opposite Cairo. A square well, from the water of which rises a marble column, is connected with the river by a canal. As the water rises more of the pillar Is hidden. When the "eighteen cubits" day of the tragic death of the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wells Bennett. While playing with a lighted Jack-O-Lantern in some way it over-turned, catching the child's clothes on fire and burning her flesh horribly. S h e was kept alive a few days 'after the accident, suffering untold agony. Mr. and Mrs. Bennett moved to Sioux St. Marie from Howell but recently, and have many friends here who extend their sympathy. It is about time for someone to start an investigation to learn the reason why so many silos are falling down. Anyone who has occasion to read the various country weekly newspapers is astonished at the number of wood and concrete silos that are reported falling over. It would be found perhaps that the reason in most cases embraced the old causes, oheap labor and cheqp materials. The farmer should know that he can not get j o o d work and good goods unless he-pays for them. If he intends to invest in a silo let him get the best that money can boy and let it be erected by the most responsible man i s the business. In such a ease the farmer will never be sorry.

The stout lady struggled with dim culty into the railway carriage. "Ah," she gasped, "that door might ha' been made by Old Sam." She paused for breath, and then, says the Manchester Guardian, proceeded to explain herself. "You see, Old Sam was one of them chaps 'oo'd getten on. Went from a three an' six cottage to a big 'onse. But 'is missis wasn't used to a big 'ouse and spent all 'er.time in kitchen wf V servants. Old Sam didn't like this, but 'e never argued wi' wimmen. Now, she was stout, like me.

It Is difficult nowadays, with oar modern serviceable rifle before us, to believe {hat as recently as 1572 the sling figured as a weapon of the battlefield. In 1702 a ftatch was shot at Pacton Green between an archer and a musketeer, in which the archer succeeded in sending sixteen out, of twenty shots into the target to,the musketeer's dozen. The dragon was the name of the firearm with which the original dragoon regiments were armed. It had a barrel only sixteen inches in length, and the muzsle was like "a gaping serpent's mouth." The carabineers^ derived their name from a short firearm originally used by the Irregular cavalry of the Moors. The arquebus of Charles I.'s time had a barrel only sixteen inches long and weighed about fifteen pounds in alL In the trial of the first percussion muskets against the flintlock 6,000 rounds were fired from each. The official record was 022 misfires against the flintlock; percussion musket, thirty-two misfires,— London Answers. What the Robin Eats. In the northern aud southern parts of the west the robin is among the most cherished of native birds. It is an omnivorous feeder, and its food includes many orders of Insects as well as earth worms, but 58 per cent of its food is derived from vegetable matter, the principal item being fruit The general usefulness of the bird Is such, however, that protecting orchards and fruit should be tried before the policy of killing them is determined on.

RUSSIAN AEROPLANE CAPTURED BY .THE GERMANS London—Turkey has ignored Great Britain's note of last Friday pertaining to hostilities in the Black sea, which means that the Ottoman empire is at war with the Allies. The Ambassadors of England, France and Russia demanded their passports Saturday night and left Constantinople Sunday. A dispatch from .Rome states that Italy is aflame with war clamor and the populace is demanding action. Counting Portugal, but not Italy, there are now eleven powers at war. That three more will be drawn in, and shortly, is the general opinion. These are Greece, Bulgaria and Rumania. The note which Great Britain presented to Turkey on Friday was really an ultimatum to which Turkey was required to make a reply by Saturday evening. Turkish troops, which had been on the Egyptian border for some time, already are reported to have crossed the frontier, while the Turkish fleet continues to menace Russian towns and shipping in the Black sea. Reedy to Oppose Invasion. Neither Russia nor Great Britain was unprepared for this move by Turkey, which, government officials say, was known to have been under the influence of Germany, and the allied powers have forcee on hand ready to oppose a Turkish invasion When the regular forces were drawn from Egypt to take part in the war in Europe, they were immediately replaced by troops from home, The problem both for England and Russia, however, is the attitude of their Moslem subjects who, under ordinary circumstances, would prefer not to fight against Turkey. In this war, however, they have rallied to their flag as have all other races under British or Russian rules and care is being taken to explain to them that In this case Turkey, under the direction of Germany, has been the aggressor. Another problem relates to the attitude of Roumanla, Bulgaria and Greece. Bulgaria, owing her existence to Russia, and being under obligations to Great Britain, besides being desirous of obtaining Thrace as far east as the Enos-Mldia line, which she was awarded by the London conferences after, the first Balkan war, but which Turkey retook when Bulgaria was attacked by Greece and Servia, would naturally side with the Entente powers. It objects, however, political observers point out, to fighting side by side with Greece and Servia, j Russia, however, is expected to ask Bulgaria definitely on what side she is ranged, as her mere neutrality under the circumstances appears insufficient Should she join the Austrians and Germans, Rumania is almost certain to declare for the Allies, and Greece even before this-may decide to take her revenge on Turkey. Says Russia Was Aggressor. Berlin—An official Turkish report forwarded from Constantinople by the correspondent of the Frankfurter Zeitung says that the Russians opened hostilities October 28 by firing upon a portion of the Turkish fleet after having for some time interfered with the evolutions of the warships. Describing the naval action in the Black sea, which was said to be continuing at the time of the announcement, the report says: "The Turkish fleet sank the Russian mine layer Prat, which was carrying several hundred mines, the torpedo boat destroyer Kubanets, captured a collier and severely damaged * coast defens* ship.** f/ wSiwtf.'iiffl »> w^St.^twf tN&mli/Ki+f&'t' German transport removing a Russian aeroplane captured oy General von Hlndenburg at Lotzen.

London, Oct 31.—Two Russian cities weje bombarded by ships under the Turkish flag. The Breslau, late of the German navy, shelled Theodosla, in the Crimea, an unfortified port The Hamidieh of the Turkish navy bombarded Novotosysk, further east than Theodosla, east of the entrance to the Sea of Azov. This makes the tenth nation in the war! Six hundred German officers have arrived in Turkey since the war began. They brought siege guns, field guns and ammunition with them. A German colonel, Weber Pasha, took command of the Dardanelles forts, and big German guns were mounted in them. All the fortifications of the Bosphorus have been overhauled, a large number of mines laid down along the coasts of Asia Minor, especially in and around Smyrna, which is fortified, and to the north of Smyrna intrenchments have been dug to repel any possible attack by land. It is computed that Turkey has from 600,009 to 700,000 men ready to take the field. The German officers put the number at 900,000. The action of Turkey marks the long-expected entry of that nation Into the war, her animus being particularly directed against Russia. The longsustained neutrality of the Ottoman empire finally was broken under German pressure. Russian and French 8hlps 8unk. London, Nov. 1^-Turkey has followed its initial hostile acts in bombarding two Russian cities by attacking Russian and French ships without loss of time. Following is a summary of events which have succeeded each other rapidly as a result of the decision of the ports to enter the war. Turkish gunboats raided the port of Odessa, bombarded the suburbs of the town, sank the Russian gunboat Don* ets, killing all her crew, and damaged the Russian steamers Lasareff, Witias and Whampoa and the. French liner Portugal. Cruiser Goeben torpedoed and sank the Russian steamers Yalta and Kas» bek in the Black sea, drowning 78 passengers and crew. The Russian am- Jtassador to Constantinople has been withdrawn. The British envoy, Ambassador Mallet, has Informed the grand vizier on behalf of his government that if the Turks cross the frontier of Egypt it will mean war with the powers. Russian troops have been mobilized on the Turkish frontier. Turkey is mobilizing cavalry divisions on the Red sea. Italy's hand is expected soon to be forced. France has looked to Italy to dominate the Balkans, and in the present crisis with Turkey's army, numbering between 700,000 and 900,- 000, thrown into the conflict, she cannot do so by continuing her neutral position. Greece is also likely to enter the war at once. She will, of course, oppose her ancient enemy, the Turks. Roumanla probably will do likewise. Water Drives Germans From Trenches. London, Nov. 1.—The German forces in the lower Yser valley in Belgium have been compelled to retreat according to an official announcement issued here. The Belgians opened the dykes in the valley and the Germans were compelled to withdraw from the flood of water that ' poured forth against them. As the Germans retreated they were shelled by the Belgians. Lille is reported to have been recaptured by the allies. Ostend is said-to have been evacuated by the Germans. Thousands of dead and wounded were left on the field when the Germans finally were driven back, and the trenches of the troops commanded by Field Marshal Sir John French held both German and French dead, for they had been taken and retaken repeatedly during the two days' encounter. Soldiers from southern Flanders and 11,000 marines from the garrison hear Heyst are being rushed to Zeebrugge. The only explanation suggested is that the British are landing or attempting to land troops on the Bet gian coast back of the German lines. The Germans have reoccupied Tournhout, Belgium. . Fall Back Before Russians. Berlin, Oct. 29 (by wireless via London.)— In Poland, after several days of fighting, during which all Russian \ attacks were successfully repulsed, the German-Austrian forces were obliged to retreat before new Russian advances from Warsaw, Ivangorod and Novoe Goergiecsk. The Russians have for the time being abandoned the pursuit Germans Sink Three Wsrshlps. Paris, Oct. 30.—The German cruiser Emden, the terror of the Pacific ocean, has made another successful raid, according to advices received from the British embassy at Tokyo. Flying the Japanese flag and disguised by the addition of a fourth smokestack, she audaciously stole under the guns of the fort and entered Georgetown, the harbor of the island of Penang, the British possession in the Straits Settlements, fired torpedo* which destroyed the Russian cruiser Jemptchug and a French torpedo destroyer and escaped through the Straits of Malacca. More than two hundred members of the crews of the warships were killed. De Wet Heads Revolt. London, Oct. M.—Gen. Christian De Wet, the last of the Boer generals to surrender during the Boer war of 1900, and Gen. Christian Frederick Beyers, who resigned as commander of the British defense forces of the Union of South Africa last month, are leading an army of Boer burghers in revolt against the British in the Transvaal and the Orange Free State, according to an announcement by the official press bureau of the war office. Botha Punishes Rebels. London, Oct. 31.—The following official statement was issued tonight regarding the rebillion in the Union of South Africa. "General Botha reports that he left Rustenberg (a district in the west part of the Transvaal colony) on Tuesday morning and proceeded in the direction in which Gen.. Christian Beyers with his commando, was supposed to be. "He came in touch with General Beyers' men in the forenoon and drove them, in headlong rout, the whole of the day and captured 80 of them fully armed."

Coffee's Weight on Old Age. When people realize the injurious effects of coffee and the change in health that Postum can bring, they are usually glad to lend their testimony for the benefit of others. "My mother/ since her early childhood, was an inveterate coffee drinker, had been troubled with her heart for a number of years and (complained of that 'weak all over' feeling and sick stomach. "Some time ago I was making a visit to a distant part of the country and took dinner with one of the merchants of the place. I noticed a somewhat unusual flavour of the 'coffee' and asked him concerning i t He replied that it was Postum. "I was so pleased with it that, after the meal was oyer, I bought a package to carry borne with me, and had wife prepare some for the next meal. The whole family were so well pleased with it that we discontinued coffee and used Postum entirely. "I had really been at times very anxious concerning my mother's con* ditlon, but we noticed that after using Postum for a short time, she felt so much better than she did prior to its use, and-had little trouble with her heart, and no sick stomach; that the headaches were not so frequent, and her general condition much improved. This* continued until she was well and hearty. T know Postum has benefited m y - self and the other members-of the family, hut not in so marked a degree as in the case of my mother, as she was a victim of long standing."

CHAPTER XV. •rr v* The "Hardening" Process. 3$e life-saving station was very Nos. 8 and 5 bad gone out on the eight-o'clock patrol The seventh man was taking his twenty-four hours off at his home on the shore. The keeper was working over hie report in the office. The other members of the crew were upstairs asleep, and Abe and Samuel were bearing each other company In the messroom. Abe lay asleep on the carpet-covered sofa which had been dragged but of the captain's room for him, so that the old man need not spend the night in the cold sleeping-loft above.. He was fully dressed except for bis boots; for he was determined to con* form to the rules of the service, and sleep with his clothes on ready for instant duty. ' 'Talk erbout him a-dyln'!M growled Samuel to himself, lounging wearily in a chair beside the stove. "He's jest startin' bis life. He's a regular boss. I didn't think he had it in him/ i Samuel's tone was resentful.. He was a little jealous of the distinction which had been made between him and Abe; and drawing closer to the lire, he shivered in growing distaste for the cot assigned to him with the crew upstairs, where the white frost lay on the window latches. What uncomfortable chairs they had In' this station! Samuel listened to the mooing of the breakers, to the wind rattling at the- caeements—and wondered if Blossy had missed him. About this time she must he sitting in her chintz-covered rocker, combing out the ringlets of her golden-white hair in the cheery firelight Now, thai would be a sight worth seeing! Abe opened his mouth and began to snore. What disgusting, hideous creatures men were, reflected Samuel. Six months' living with an unusually high-bred woman had raaeneibly raised his standards. Why should he spend a week of his ever-shortening life with such Inferior beings, just for Abraham's sake—for Abraham's sake, and to bear out a theory of his own, which he had already concluded a mistake? Abe gave a snort, opened his eyes, and muttered sleepily: "This is what I call a A No. 1 spree. Naow, termor* rer—" But. mumbling Incoherently he relapsed into slumber, puffing bis lips out into a whistling sound. Samuel reached for a newspaper on the tab'e, folded it into a missile, and started to fling it into the Innocent face o the sleeper. But fortunately for Ran Ova* oa Hit Fingers the L(*t of <*••' High Ortmes. •4 **** Abraham, It was Captain Darby's cuetonfto count ten whenever seised by an exasperated impulse, and at the ninth number he regretfully dropped the paper.

What the projector of the trip was really trying to recall was how many times that day he had regretted saving Abe from the devastating clutches of the old ladles. "Him need hardenln'7" muttered Samuel blackly. "Why, he's harder now 'n nails an' hardtack!" Again he ran over on bis fingers the list of high crimes and misdemeanors of which vAbfl had been guilty. First—thumb; left hand—Abe had insisted on extending their scooter sail until he, Samuel, had felt his toes freezing in his boots. Second—forefinger, left hand—on being welcomed by the entire force at Bleak Hill and asked how long they expected to stay, Abe had blurted out, "A hull week," explaining that Samuel's rule requiring at least seven days of exile from his wife every eix months barred them from returning in teas time. The keeper was a widower, all the other men were bachelors. How could they be expected to understand T They burst into a guffaw of laughter, and Abe, not even conscious that he had betrayed a sacred confidence, sputtered and laughed with the res{. Samuel had half a mind to return tomorrow, "jest to spite 'em." Let's see, how many days of this plagued week were left? Six. Six whole twenty-four hours away from Blossy and his snug, warm, comfortable nest She wasn't used to keepln' house by herself, neither. Would she remember to wind .the clock on Thursday, and feed the' canary, and water the abutllon and begonias reg'lar? Grimly Samuel took up offense No. 8. Abraham had further told the men that he had been brought over here for a hardening process; but he was willing to bet that if Samuel could keep up with him, he could keep up with Samuel. Then followed offense on offense. Was Samuel to be outdone on his own one-time field of action by an old Jadiee* darling? No! When Abe sat for a half-hour in the lookout, up in the freezing, cold cupola, and did duty "jest to be smart," Samuel sat there on top of his own, feet, too. When Abe helped drag out the apparatus cart over the heavy sands for the drill, Samuel helped, too. And how tugging at that rope brought back his lumbago! When Abe rode In the breecheebuoy, Samuel insisted on playing the sole survivor of a shipwreck, too, and went climbing stiffly and hunberingly up the practise mast Abraham refused to take a nap after dinner; so did SamueL Abe went down to the outdoor carpenter shop in the grove and planed a board just for the love of exertion.

He heard the keeper rattling papers in the office just across the threshold, heard him say he was about to turn in, and guessed Samuel had better do likewise; but Samuel kept on counting. Count, count went the arraigning fingers. Gradually he grew drowsy, but still he went over and over poor Abe's offenses, counting on until of a sudden he realised that he waa no longer numbering the sins of his companion; he was measuring in minutes the time he must spend away from Blossy and Twin Coves, and the begonias and the canary and'the eat What would Blossy say if she could feel the temperature of the room in which he was supposed' to sleep? What would,Blossy say if she knew how his back ached? Whatever would Blossy do to Abe Rose if she could suspect how he had tuckered out her "old man?" "He's a regTar boat," brooded, SamueL "Oh, my feet!" grabbing at his right boot T H bet yer all I got it's them air chilblains. That's what," he added, unconsciously speaking aloud.

Leetle breath «' fresh alrll make us sleep splendid." He started up from the couch, but dropped back, too heavy with weakness to carry off his bravado. Samuel, however, not noticing the discrepancy between speech and action, was already at the door leading upstairs. "Yew don't drag me out o' this station ternlght, Abe Rose. Tew're a reg'lar hoss; that's what yew be. A reg'lar hoss! A reg'lar—a reg'lar—" He flung open the door and went trudging as fast as his smarting feet could carry him up the steep and narrow steps, wherein the passing of other feet for many years had worn little hollows on either Bide. Abraham limped from the couch to the door himself, and called after him: "Sam'I, don't yew want tew sleep by the fire? Tew seem a leetle softer than I be. Let me come upstairs." There was no answer beyond the vicious slamming of Samuel's boots upon the floor above. Abe raised his voice strain, and now came in answer a roar of wroth from the cot next \o Samuel's.

"Boys, you shouldn't have woke up Cap'n Rose," he said reprovingly. "I'm afraid, sir," turning to Abraham, "that you find our manners pretty rough after your life among the old ladies." Abe dropped his eyes In confusion. Was he never to be rid of thoBe apron strlngB?" "Well, there's worse things than good women," proceeded the captain. "I wish we had a few over here." He i CHAPTER XVI. "A Reg'lar Hoss." Abe flung himself back on his hard couch, drew the thick, gray blanket over him, and straightway fell Into a deep, childlike slumber from which he was aroused by the rough but hearty inquiry: "Say, Cap, like to have some Oyster stew and a cup of coffee?" Abe sat up, rubbing his eyes, wondering since when they had begun to serve oyster stew for breakfast on the beach; then he realized that he he bad not overslept and that it was not morning. The clock was striking twelve, the midnight patrol was just going out and the returning "runners" were bidding him partake of the food they had just prepared to cheer them after their cold tramp along the surf. The old man whiffed the smell of the coffee, tempted, yet withheld by the thought of Angy's horror, and the horror of the twenty-nine sisters. "Cap'n Abe"—Clarence Havens, No. 5, with a big Iron spoon In his hand and a blue gingham apron tied around his bronzed neck, put him on his mettle, however—"Cap'n Abe, I tell yew, we wouldn't have waked no other fellow of your age out of a Bound sleep. Cap'n Darby, he .could snooze till doomsday r but we kriowed you wouldn't want to miss no fun agoing." "Cap'n Sam'I does show his years," Abe admitted.

Law, I wish I had a dollar apiece for all the eyester stews I've et on this here table 'twlxt sunset an' sunrise." Under the stimulus of the unaccustomed repast Abe expanded and began to tell yarnB of the old days on the beach—the good old days. His cheeks grew red, his eyes sparkled. He smoked and leaned back from the table, and ate and drank, smoked and ate again. "A week amongst yew boys," he asserted gaily, "is a-goin' tew be the makin' of me. Haow Saml kin waste so much time in sleep I can't understand." "I dont think he is asleep," said No. 3. "When I was upstairs jest now fer my slippers, I heard, him kind o' sniffln' inter his piller.

That's why there's so many young fellows in the service nowadays; married men with families wori't take the job." "Them empty cottages out thar," admitted Abe, pointing to the window, "does look kind o' lonesome a-goin' ter rack an' ruin. Why, the winter 1 was over here every man had his wife an' young 'una on the beach, ^'cept me an' Sam'U' Again the keeper sighed, and drew his coverlid closer. "Now, it's just men, men, nothing but men. Not a petticoat in five miles; and I tell you, sometimes we get mad looking at one another, don't we, boys?" The two young men had ^obered, and their faces also had taken on that look engendered by a life of dull routine among sand hills at the edge of a lonely sea, with seldom the sound of a woman's voice in their ears or the prattle of Httle children. "For two months last winter nobody came near us," said Havens, "and we couldn't get off ourselves, either, halt the time.

Personalities In Court Counsel used to insult one another pretty freely in court Mr. J, A Foots, K. C, who was called to the bar in 1875, writes in "Pie Powder": "It is not the custom for leading advocates of the present day to quarrel, except occasionally with the judge or during the luncheon interval; but it has not alway* been, so, and things have been said In public, even by men of acknowledged position, which appear almost incredible when written down* "I remember, for example, a Board of Trade inquiry, where 44«, leader on one side interrupted his opponent by declaring that his nerves would not allow him to remain in court unless his learned friend moderated his strident voice. The strident one replied that he would endeavor to do so if his friend would turn away his ugly tang; Both criticisms were perfectly just" Jewelry, Perhase.

One hundred sears ago a big celebration in honor of the emancipation of Holland was held In Albany, NT 7. Word that the Hollanders had succeeded in throwing off the French yoke and had proclaimed the prince of Orange sovereign prince of the United Netherlands, had just reached America, though the events' had taken place two months previously. Albany, which was originally called Fort Orange, had been settled by the Dutch in the early part of the seventeenth century. Many of the descendants of these original settlers still lived in the city and its vicinity. By these people the news of the emancipation of the mother country was received with great rejoicing. Celebrations similar to that In Albany were held about the same time in New York city, in Philadelphia and in other places wnere large colonies of Hollanders were <a> eluded in the population, A Question.

The experience of Motherhood is a trying one to most women and marks distinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one woman in a hundred is prepared or understands how to properly care for herself. Of course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment at such times, but many approach the experience with an organism unfitted for the trial ol strength, and when it is over her system has received a shock from which it is hard to recover. Following right upon this comes the nervous strain of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There is nothing more charming than a happy and healthy mother otj&\\djen, er the right to health or W^es htahtitnegr eids and indeed child-birth conditions need be no beauty.

Dancer & Company StockbridSe, Mich. v How Otona SoorasV . In "Milton and^Homespun" la this amusing English fox bunting story: "Hold hard, madam! For teayen'1 sake hold hard or that camel yon are riding will be the death of some of my hounds!" cried the choleric master of one of the southeastern counties' packs of foxhounds to a lady who was riding rather too close to hounds. Without deigning to turn her bead she steered her mount a little to the left and clear of the hounds rode her own line like a centaur, led the van through a long and very fast run and was the first of tue field to see the fox rolled over in the open. Having recovered from his temporary fit of churlishness and delighted with the manner in which the lady had ridden, the master approached her, somewhat sheepishly it must be confessed, with the "brush" and an apology. "Pray, don't apologize, sir," was the smiling reply. "You simply mistook my favorite hunter for a camel, and 1 your foxhounds for fox terriers, it seems we were both mistaken. Thanks awfully for the brush." PETTYSV1LLE STORE Offers the Following Sale 19c 55c John O'Groat's House.

Pinckney, Livingston County, Michigan, Thursday, November 12, 1914 No. 46 * . I1*'- •• * • Potterton-Dunning edding occared at w re. Addie Potter- "^ toninTwK^lilig^when her daughter Ruth, became the bride of Myrou W. Dunning, on Wednesday afternoon, November 11 at •one o'clock. Rev. L. W. Oatrander performed the wedding -ceremony in the presence of the immediate .relative* of the bride and groom, after which a simple buffet luncheon waa served to the gaests. The groom is the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Will Dunning of this place. He is one of Pinek. ney's hustling young business men -and is well and favorably known in this community. The bride is the only daughter of Mrs. Addie Potterton, also of this village. ,She is one of Pinckney's fairest yoang ladies and has a host of friends.

After a snort wedding trip Mr* iind, Mrs. Dunning will be at home in mis village after December 1st. They have a bright outlook upon life and their many friends wish them happiness in the journey. State Is Quarantined "the discovery of foot aud mouth disease among some of the fine herds of cattle in Southern Michigan has oftused the Department of Agriculture at Washington to places quarantine on^ Michigan until the mcourge has been lulled off. Just as the quarantine became efiective a movement had been started to send some fine cattle from Livingston county to the Ohio Land and Livestock Exposition to be held in Toledo, Ohio, in the near futare, the quarantine however has made this impossible. Reed and Knowles have a consignment of cattle in the pavillion at Chicago which have been placed under quarantine. They were to have been shown at the coming live stock Exposition in that city. They were well at last reports and had just completed a tour of the fairs. Herb Ackley has a bunoh of cattle in the stock yards at Detroit that IB qlow of sale as a result of the quarantine. In some of the southern counties; the farmers have suffered heavy losses as a result of the disease but everything is being done to stamp out the malady.^-Tidings.. Back to the Smoke House Farmers \o *U psfrts of the c o u n t r ^ j ^ ^ interest an etjttfiatsit wjfak is being made in ^fc»al» county, Georgia. The Georgia farmers objected to the commercial system under which they were receiving but seven and eight cents a pound for the pork which they raised, while they saw ham and bacon of commerce retailing in their own markets for 25 cents a pound. They resolved to re-establish the antebellum smokehouses on their farms and immediately carried the resolution into effect. Through cooperation they commenced marketing their products in the finished form. They find that the profits which they make from curing their own meats are relatively larger, considering the time and expense involved, than ' those which they were receiving from marketing hogs on the hoof. The remarkable thing about this profitable experiment is that it has not been worked out in any of the grain centers or near any of the country's great markets, but in a remote county in the extreme southerti part of Georgia, in a "one crop" section, aud that crop cotton. e^sE Card of Thanks I wish to thank the patrons of the poatoffioe. and all those with whom-my work has been done, for the seventeen years and wore that I have been connected with the Department, for yenr untfoVm kindest-and consideTetion, yonr patience with my mistakes, and Apptffoiatioii of "my honest efforts/ W* jhanka to the neighbors and Henry M.

The following spring they settled on a farm in Marijn wher3 they resided until the death of his wife in '03. To this union two children were born, Mrs. Ohas, Teeple of Pinckney and W. H. Padley of Reardon, Washington. For the past eleven years, Mr. Padley had made his home with his daughter, Mrs. Cbas* Teeple in this village. Besides the son and daughter, there remains a large .circle of friends to mourn the loss of a man who was a friend to many, an enemy to none.

CHAPTER XVI—Continuod. The keeper went into the office with * somewhat hurried "Good-night," and •con Abe found himself alone again, the light In the kttohen beyond, no sound in the room save that of the "Dooming of the surf, the rattling of jthe windows, and now and again the Call of a clinker in the stove. The old man was surprised to find [that he could not fall back into that blissful slumber again. Not sleeping, Ihe had to think. He thought and; (thought—sober night thoughts—while the oysters "laid like a log in his atummick" and the coffee seemed to stir his brain to greater activity. "Suppose," said the intoxicated brain, "another big storm should swoop down upon you and the bay should break up, and you and Samuel should be imprisoned on the beach for two or three Inoaths with a handful of men-folks!" "Moo! Moo!" roared the breakers ton the shore.- "Serve you right for Loading fault with the sisters!" Come to think of it, if he had not jbeen so ungracious of Miss Abigail's {concern for him, he would now be in {possession of a hop pillow to lull him pack to sleep. Well, he had made hie [bed, and he would have to lie on it, Although it was a hard old carpet-covered lounge. Having no bop pillow, jhe would count sheep- One sheep going over the fence, two Isheep, three— How tired he was! ;How his bones ached! It's no use [talking,'you can't make an old dog do ithe tricks of his puppy days. What lan idiot he had been to climb that practise*mast! If he had fallen and broken his leg? Four sheep. Maybe he was too old for gallivanting, after all. Maybe he was too old for anything except Just to be "mollycoddled" by thoughtful old ladies. Now, be honest with yourself, Abe. Did you enjoy yourself today— no, yesterday? Did you? Well, yes and—no! Now, if Angy had been along! Angy!' That was why he^could not go to sleep! He had forgotten to kiss her good-by! Wonder if she bad noticed it? Wonder if she had missed him more on account of that neglect? Pshaw! what nonsense! Angy knew he wa'n't no hand at kissin', and' It was apt to give him rheumatism to bend down so far as her sweet, old mouth. He turned to the wall at the side of the narrow lounge, to the emptiness where her pillow should be. "Goodnight, mother," he muttered huskily. Mother did not answer for the first time in nights beyond the counting. Mother would not be there to answer for at least six nights to come. A iweek, thought this old man, as the other nf. man had reflected a few ho die uefore, is a long time when one has passed his threescore years and ten, and with each day sees the shadows growing longer. Abraham put out his hard timeshrunken hand and touched in thought his wife's pillow, as if to persuade himself that she was really there In her place beside him. He remembered when first he had actually touched her pillow to convince himself that she was really there, too awed and too (happy to believe that his youth's bad come true; and he rexnemnow how his gentle, strong had crept along the linen until It capped itself around her cheek; and the had felt the cheek grow hot with blushes In the darkness. She had not ibeen "mother" then; she had been "dearest!" Would she think that he Iwas growing childish If he should call jher "dearest" now. Smiling to himself, he concluded {that he would try the effect of the ten- Ida? term when he reached home again. jHe drew his hand back, whispering lOAce more, "Good-night, mother." JThen he fancied he could hear her say (In her soft, reassuring tone, "Goodmight father." Father turned his (hack on the empty wall, praying with la- sadden rash of passionate love that -¾^ ,« Xr''"'"TflsheB the last call should come for ; ^ : ^ - > * ^ . ' ^ ' v f c l « , It would be attar he had said He shivered as he drew close to the fire, and asked in one breath for a prescription for chilblains and where might Abe be. Abe's lounge was empty and his blankets neatly folded upon it. The sunrise patrol from the east, who had just returned, made reply that he had met Captain Abe walking along the surf to get up an appetite for his grlddlecakai and salt park. Samuel sat down suddenly on the lounge and opened his month. "Didn't he have enough exercise ylst'day, for mercy's sake! Pot' nigh killed me. I was that tired ms' night I couldn't sleep a wink. I declar\ ef 'twan't fer that fool newspaper acomln' out ternight I'd go home terday. Yer a-gwlne acrost hain't yer, Havens?" Havens laughed in response. Samuel glowered at him. "I want home comforts back," he vowed sullenly. "The beach hain't what it used ter be. Goin' on a picnic with Abe Rose is like settin' yer teeth into a cast-iron stove lid covered with a thin layer o' puddln'. I'm a-goln' home." Th,e keeper assured him that no one steel against the ice over the shining surface of the bay. "Law, yes," Samuel eased his conscience; "of course they will They couldn't hurt him, anyhow. I -never seen anybody take so kindly ter hardenin' as that air Abe." CHAPTER XVIII. Samuel's Welcome. The shore at Twin Coves was a somewhat lonely spot, owing to stretches of marshland and s sweep of pine wood that reached almost to the edge of the water. Samuel, however, having Indicated Jbat he wished to be landed at the foot of a path through "the pines, found himself on the home shore scarcely ten minutes after he had left Bleak Hill—Havens already speeding toward his home some miles to the eastward, the bay seemingly deserted except for his sail, a high wind blowing, and the enow beginning to fall in scattered flakes. Samuel picked up bis grip, trudged through the heavy sand of the narrow beach, and entered the sweetsmelling pine wood. He was stiff with cold after the rough, swift voyage; his feet alone were hot—burning hot with chilblains. Away down in his heart he was uneasy lest some harm should come to Abe and the old man be caught In the approaching storm on the beach. But, oh, wasn't he glad to be home! His house was still half a mile away; but he was once more on good, solid, dry land. "Ill tell Blossy haow that air Abe Rose behaved," he reassured himself, when he pictured his wife's astonished and perhaps reproachful greeting, "an'* then she won't wonder that I had ter quit him an' come back." He recollected that Angy would be there, and hoped fervently that she might not prove so strenuous a charge as Abraham. Moreover, he hoped that she would not so absorb Blossy's attention as to preclude a wifely ministering to his aching feet and the application of "St. Jerushy lie" to his lame and sore back. The torture of the feet and back made walking harder, too, than he had believed possible with' the prospect of relief eo near. As he limped along he was forced to pauBe every now and again and set down the carpetbag, sometimes to rub his back, sometimes to seat himself on a stump and nurse for a few moments one of those demon- possessed feet Could he have made any progress at all if he had not known that at home, no matter if there wae -company, there would at least be no Abe* Rose to keep him going, to spur him on to unwelcome action, to force him to prove himself out of sheer self-respect the equal, if not the superior, in masculine strength ? Abe had led him that chase over, at the station, Samuel was convinced, "a-purpose" to punish him for having so soundly berated him when he lay abed. That was all the thanks you ever got for doing things for "some folks." Samuel hobbled onward, his brow knit with angry resentment Did ever a half-mile seem so long, and had he actually been only twenty-three hours from home and Blossy? Oh, oh! his back and his feet! Oh, the weight of JUkt bag! How much he needed sleep! How good it would be to have Blossy tuck aim under the covers, and give him a hot lemonade with a stick of ginger in ttt .^-.- HQood-night, mother," to Angy tad felts* she bad said -Good-night fate him,* and that they might its** somewhere, somehow, together • ™ * God, saying.

This one and sight with Abe had been equal the revelations of a dosen The next time Samuel tried to do good to anybody more than sixty-five, he'd know i t The next time he was per* snaded into leaving his wife for over night, he'd "know that, too. Various manuals for the young husband, which he had consulted, to the contrary notwithstanding, the place for a married man was at home. Samuel sat down on a fallen tree which marked the half-way point between his place and the bay. The last half of the Journey would seem shorter, and, at the end, there would be Blossy smiling a welcome, for he never doubted but that Blossy would be glad to see him. She thought a good deal of him, nor had she been especially anxious for that week of separation. His face smoothed its troubled frowps into a look of shining anticipation— the look that Samuel's face had worn when first he ushered Blossy into his tidy little home and murmured huskily: . "Mis' Darby, you're master o' the vessel naow; I'm jest fo'castle hand." Forgetting all his aches, his pains, his resentments, Samuel took a peppermint losenge out of his pocket rolled It under his tongue, and walked on. Presently, as he saw the light of the clearing through the trees, he broke into a run—an old man's trot— thus proving conclusively that hie worry of lumbago and chilblains had in the same way. One of two conclu* been merely a wrongly diagnosed csaej, sions must be drawn from these inciof homesickness. He grinned as he pictured Abe's dismay on returning to the station to find him gone. Still, he reflected, maybe Abe would have a better time alone with the young fellows; he had grown so plagued young himself all of a sudden. Samuel surely need not worry* about him. More and more good-natured grew Samuel's face, until a sociable rabbit peeping at him from behind a bush, • decided to run a race with the old 1 gentleman, and hopped fearlessly out into the open. * (TO BE .CONTINUED.)

In 181«, after the fall of Napoleon, the allied powers of Europe gave orders that the art treasures carried off by the conqueror should be restored to - their original owners. Fifteen states sent commissioners to Paris to claim their property, and more than 2,000 pictures were taken from the Louvre, together with almost innumerable statues, ornaments, knickkhacks, and so forth. The gallery was left with only 270 piotures and had to be closed for, a while until the vacant spaces could; be filled by gift or purchase. dentsi either that a great many persons do not read the newspapers, or that they are willing to jeopardise their lives for a savory dish. All the probabilities are that the explanation <of the second occurrence is not recklessness, but failure to keep up with current events.

Reinforced by thousands of fresh troops, who for three days had been pouring into the region about Ypres, the great German armies hurled them* selves at the British and French forces! strongly entrenched both east and west of Ypres, and fought with a ferocity that showed plainly the desperation of their attack. As to the outcome of the day's fighting, Berlin is silent, the only news from the German capital during the day referring to Saturday's developments. Paris, 'however, in Its night communique, declares the German attack to have been without result. Paris Claimed Important Gains. The Paris official reports of the fighting indicate that the Allies are driving tide Germans from the fortified crests along the Aisne, the bulwark of the invaders' extended line in northern France. ElBewhere, from Ypres to the Croonne region, the Allies made slight advances of firmly held theif* ground, but the important feature of the government's latest statement is the successful attask by the Allies northeast of Soissons. Sunday they claim they drove the Germans from the plateau of Vregny, the most notable advance in that region which has been attained since the siege operations began seven weeks ago. Previously, for a month, the French, had been slowly and at painful efforts winning the advanced trenches of the Germans above the Aisne, and had seized half of the plateau north of Soissons. The capture of the crest Of Vregyn means that they now have a foothold in the highlands which will enable the heavy French guns to combat the German artillery on equal terms. Italy Prepares to Fight Rome—Italy is sending troops to Tripoli to defend her settlements and territorial possession, for Turkey has disregarded the promise made to Italy by Germany that the Porte would not threaten Italian colonies and that Turkey had no designs on Tripoli. Events are tending more and more to force Italy into the war on the side of the Allies. The newest, most* momentous, crisis has developed in Cyrenaica, due to the aggressions of Bedouins stirred by the preachments of Turkish and German agents. News' received here Sunday lndif cates Turkeys intention to drive the Italians out of Tripoli and to regain the provinces lost In the war between Italy and Turkey.

Looking at it in this way a pain is a useful alarm. Now, kidney weakness is a dangerous thing—a condition not to be neglected—and it is wise to know aad pay attention to the early alarm signals of sick kidneys. Backache is a common warning of congestion or inflammation in the kidneys. It may be dull, nagging pain, or a sharp twinge when stooping or lifting. There are likely to be disorders of urination, dizziness, headaches, and drowsy, despondent, tired feelings. It Is yery hard to strengthen weak kidneys at first, but neglect invites rheumatic or neuralgic attacks, gravel, dropsy, and fatal Bright's disease. As a special medicine for weak kidneys Doan'8 Kidney Pills have been used for years all over the civilized world, and surely are considered reliable. The patient can always help the medicine immensely, however, by dieting lightly, using little or no liquor, tea or coffee, keeping regular hours and drinking lots of pure water.

GA VE UP HOPE Weak and Discouraged with Kidney Ills William Hough, 916 Alderman St., Beld* lng, Mich., *aya: "I think I contracted kidney troublo in 1863 when I was la the army. The lucretloni from my kidney* contained a thick, white sediment and the passage* WAT* accompanied by terrible pain. The flow w a s scanty and the passages too frequent. My back and limbs were stiff and lame and tar arms were all crippled up. Tim Joints in my fingers were swollen. I could hardly move my fingers or limbs. I got so bad Z couldn't do any work and was laid up. I doctored, but physicians gave me only temporary relief. I didn't think I would ever get better and was discouraged. One day a druggist told me to try Doan's Kidney Pills and I used half a box. I soon felt better and by the time I had used two boxes I was abla to go back to work. I kept on taking them and enjoyed the best of health. I have been feeling in good shape ever since and a short time ago when 1 was examined for an Increase in pension the physician said my kidneys were in the best of shape. Doan's Kidney Pills have worked wonders in my casa and X am anxious to have others profit by my experience.

The pretty little waitress in the hotel in Dilmouth was very prompt and efficient—as if to atone for the cuisine of the hotel, which was frankly bad. She was perhaps inclined to be a little pert at times, but that may have been merely her means of defense against the complaints of the patrons about the quality of the food and drink. So when Mr. Peaelee asked his fourth cuj> of coffee, she brought it speedily/-As he thoughtfully stirred the weak, yellowish solution, the waitress remarked: "You seem to be fond of coffee." Mr. Peaslee, nothing abashed, smiled upon her benignly. "I be fond of coffee," he admitted, placidly. "My! Ain't you quick to notice things! I'm dretful fond of it. If I wa'n't," he concluded, slowly, while his pleasant old face lighted whimsically, "I don't believe I'd drink so much water for the sake of getting a little coffee.n—Youth's Companion.

Prop Cure For Nosebleed. 1 sometimes read in the daily papers of death caused by bleeding at the nose. Here is a cure discovered by me and not known or practiced by any physician. 1 am an old shipmaster, have tried it in a number of cases and uever knew it to fall. It is very simple. Any one can perform the operation. Place the patient in a sitting position or propped up in bed. and with the forefinger press gently iu the hollow of the throat just above the breast boue. and the bleeding will gradually cease. To avoid bleeding at the nose, espe* daily in the case of children, get a large bead the size of a large marble, put it on a silk or woolen string and tie it around the neck so that the bead hangs in the hollow of the throat and wear it night and day—New York Sua. A Remarkable 8tork. The whale billed stork is found on a lake south of the White Nile. The lake has never l>een mapped and is bordered by extensive swamps. It is hard to tell where swamp ends and lake begins, for most of the water surface is covered with a dense mat of tangled vegetation. Ou this mat the whale billed stork builds its nest. It is a very rare bird and is known to the Arabs as the Father of the Shoe, because of its huge shoe shaped bill. It is of solitary habits, blackish gray in color, with wide spreading long toed feet adapted for standing on the quaking surface of a Moating field of vegetation. Its habits are sluggish, and it lives mainly on tish. Colonel Roosevelt describes it as "limiting sedately in muddy shallows or standing motionless for hours, surrounded by reed beds or by long reaches of treacherous ooze." Downfall of an Astronomer. M.

Bravery of the Belgians. When Caesar tn his "Commentaries" prououueed the Belgue the bravest of all the Gauls he was merely recording the reputation that they had earned on many a battlefield and which they maintained even iu defeat. Caesar overwhelmed more thnn a quarter of a million of them in the year 57 B. C. on the banks of the Aisne. After the crushing defeat on tli .• Alsne Severn I I tribes, headed*by the Nervil, made a i last stand on the Sam ore, taking the offensive against the Roman legion.-; and very nearly defeating them by the "intensity of their onslaught. But the training and discipline of Rome saved Caesar, and the final result of the heroic resistance of the Nervil was their practical annihilation. Their peace emissaries said, "Of <*A) senators we have lost all but three; of 60,000 fighting men but 500 remain." It is from this stock that the Belgians of today are descended.—F. J.

Tokyo, Nov. 7.—It was officially announced here today that the German fortress of Tslng Tao has surrendered to the Japanese and British forces. The announcement states that the first step in bringing about the surrender of the fortress occurred at midnight, when the Infantry charged and occupied the middle fort of the line of defense. In this operation they took 200 prisoners. The greatest advantage which will come to the allies by the fall of Tslng Tao will be the release of the fleets now before that stronghold. They will be freed to take part in naval activity in other seas. It has been announced that the release of these vessels will be followed by an active campaign to drive the German cruisers which have been raiding shipping in all parts of the world from the high seas. It 1B not known whether the first action will be against the Germans now off the west coast of South America or the Karlsruhe and other raiders In the Indian ocean. Japs Lose 1,078 In Battle.

In addition the British cruiser Glasgow and the transport Otranto were struck by shells from the German ships and damaged. The German cruisers Scharnborst, Gneisenau and the Nurnberg, which came Into this harbor on Sunday night after the engagement, showed but little effect of the fight and Admiral Graf von Spee, commander of the German fleet in the Pacific, reported that only two men had been wounded on the Gneisenau. . German Warship 8unk; 268 Die. London, Nov. 6.—The German cruiser Torek struck a mine and was sunk in Jahde bay, near the mouth of the Weser, and of her crew of 266 officers and men are lost, according to a dispatch received here from Am; sterdam.

The Torek, classed as an armored cruiser, had four 8.2-lnch and ten six-inch guns, 14 24-pounders and four maxims, besides four submerged torpedo tubes. The displacement was 9,050 tons and the length 403 feet. This is the-largest German vessel sunk In this war "Holy War" Is Called. Berlin, Nov. 7.—The Shelk-ul-lBlam, ecclesiastical head of the 220.000,000 Mohammedans in the world, has proclaimed a holy war of Islam against the enemies of Turkey. The significance of this action becomes evident when it is recalled that more than 100,000,000 Mohammedans, or nearly half the total number in the world, are now under English rule. These "Great Victory" for Allies, London, Nov. 7.—"The greatest success gained on the side of the allies since the beginning of the war has been the complete victory oi the Russian army against the Germans in Poland, East Prussia and Galicia," This was the word conveyed to General Joffre and Lord Kitchener in telegrams by Grand Duke Nicholas of Russia, commander of the czar's army. "Following our successes upon the Vistula," 'Said the telegramr-*** complete victory has just been gained by our troops along the whole of the front In Galicia. I am most confident of the Bpeedy and entire accomplishment of our common task, persuaded as I am that decisive victory will be gained by the allied armies." This stirring news was followed by dispatches from Petrograd telling of the recapture by the Russians of the Galiclan town of Jaroslav with 5,000 Austrian prisoners. Armies Fail to End Deadlock. Paris, Nov. 7.—The bloody battle between the Germans and the allies in Ihe region between Dixmude and the River Lys is still undecided, according to an official announcement Issued here. Neither of the contestants have been able to break the mighty deadlock. Lille Is In Flames. Fired by the shells of the allies' artillery, Lille is burning in several places. Several villages surrounding that city have been burned to the ground. The fighting in that region of northern France continues night and day, but thus far the Germans have balked the efforts of the allies to drive them from Lille. 1,750,000 Germans Lost. London, Nov. 6.—Hilaire Belloc, war expert in Land and Water, estimates that the German losses up to date amount to about 1,750,000 men. He says that he arrived at these figures by scientific calculations. "I know," he writes, "that the figure looks Btartlingly large, but It would be easy, by a little manipulation to make out much larger totals. I ONE OF THE GREAT AUSTRIAN SIEGE GUNS The Austrian army, as well as the German, is supplied with enormous siege guns, some of which were used in the siege of Antwerp. One of thes e heavy howitzers, with a group of Austrian officers, is here shown. killed and eight wounded, including two majors, and 200 Japanese killed and 878 wounded. Naval Battle In Progress. San Francisco, Nov. 7.-That the naval battle off the coast of Chile, the first engagement of which last Sunday V proved so disastrous to the British, has been renewed is indicated in private advices today to prominent British shipping agents here from their correspondents in Valparaiso. The messages assert thai British, German and Japanese warships now M« engaged in battle. No details are gtvta, however.

No serious demonstrations of the Mohammedan population are {eared in India. Many Loyal to Britain. The great majority of the followers of Islam there are said to be loyal to Great Britain. This statement Is borne out by the proclamation issued by the Nlsam of Hyderabad, who is perhaps the most Important Moslem potentate In India, calling upon all Moslems in that country to remain loyal to Great Britain. His proclamation reads: "K U the bounden duty of the Mohammedans of India to adhere to their old and tried loyalty to the British government in which power they eajoy the highest personal and religions liberty, such as they would under no Moslem or noa^Mosiem pewor." Already there are reports thai the Mohammedans of Afghsntotan are marching on the Indian frontier.

The prince may join Sir John French's staff on the continent, which means he will be kept a safe distance behind the firing line, instead of serv ing with his regiment* the Grenadier guards.

(245) STANDARD OIL COMPANY ( & & $ & ) Chicago, DEFENDS POPULAR REMEDIES Speaker Says Newspapers 8hould Investigate Merits of Medicines Before Barring Advertisements. That an organized attempt has been made to blacken the reputation of the popular family remedies of this country, and to mislead the newspaper publishers Into rejecting the advertising of such medicines, was the charge made by Carl J. Balliett, of Buffalo, N. T., at the convention of the Advertising Affiliation at Detroit Mr. Balliett is a director of the Proprietary Association of America, which includes In its membership two hundred firms which make the popular prepared medicineB of America. Mr. Balliett pointed out that It is the duty of the newspaper publisher to refuse the advertising of any fake or fraudulent medicine, Just as It is his duty to refuse any fake or fraudulent advertising, but it is not right to shut down on all medical advertising becausg, there have been some fakers, any more than it would be right to refuse to publish all department store advertising because certain stores have made^a practice of lying abou^t bargain sales. Disease and death are mysteries. People who are perfectly well are skeptical. They laugh at the timeworn patent medicine Joke, just as they laugh again and again over the many variations of the operation joke 'The operation was a success but the patient died." This so-called httmor has perhaps hurt the medicine business with well people, but when the hitherto healthy man feels a severe pain or illness, he immediately wants medicine, and will bless the cure whether it be at the hands of a regular doctor, a homeopath, an osteopath, a Christian Scientist or patent medicine. There is nothing more deadly than afsease; nothing more honorable than to cure U. Mr. Balliett refuted the idea sought to be spread about that patent medicines are unpopular by showing that from 1900 to 1912 the amount of prepared medicines consumed In America Increased from 1100,000,000 to $160,- 000,000 annually. He showed that, although the American Medical'Association is trying as an organization to exterminate so-called patent medicines, the family doctor, individually, Is not fighting them but prescribing them. He estimated that 40% of the prescriptions written by doctors today include proprietary medicines. The writings of Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, he said, have also aimed to destroy confidence in proprietary medicines; but that Dr. Wiley's ideas are not Infallible is shown by cases where his analyses were entirely wrong. Mr. Balliett mentioned a case where, with all the power of the Government, he fought a preparation as being dangerous to health, and was ingloriously walloped. There has been spread the idea that a clever faker can mix a few useless ingredients and, by smart advertising* sell tons of it and win sudtfen wealth; whereas, as a matter of fact, the medicine business is notoriously difficult and, where there has been one success at it, there have been a hundred failures. Any medicine, which has no merit cannot live, because persons who are duped into buying it once will not buy it again* and the profit from advertising a medicine can only come from repeat sales to the same, satisfled people. Therefore, any medicine which has been on the market for a number of years, and is still advertised, must have mejit behind it to account for its success. In conclusion Mr. Balliett declared that no newspaper is doing justice to Its readers in the matter of medical or other advertising, unless it investigates, not only the wording of the advertisement ottered for publication, but the merits of the article advertised. He pointed out that the few newspapers who have been deluded Into the policy of barring out medical advertising have adopted this general policy, rather than to form an Investigation bureau of this kind which could, In a constructive and useful effort investigate and decide what is a good product and what is a fraud* in not only the medicine business, but In every other business which advertises its wares to the public. The audience seemed to agree with Mr. Balliett's ideas on the subject and the chairman decided the question at issue in his favor. Suburbanite's Woes.

Astrology finds this a day in which tile planetary conditions are comparatively unimportant. Neptune, Mercury Y>, and Uranus are all mildly adverse, while the sun is slightly beneflc in aspect There is a sinister omen tor shipping, which may be Imperiled even more than in the past. Bad weather i s prognosticated and loss through a t o m s as well as in the fortunes of war is foretold. In this connection it Will be recalled that the prognostications of wholesale drownings made In the spring haVe been strangely ful- \ filled. It is not a fortunate time for contracts and agreements of sort, for unexpected events will make difficult the carrying out of plans of commercial importance. It is prophesied, however, that merchants and bankers will reap large rewards after many anxieties, but they will have to cope with the unexpected. Uranus is in a place held to indicate a temporary cessation of research and study in abstract science and In abstruse philosophies-. The stars presage better times for France. Neptune has entered the ruling sign of the country and "protection and gradual access of power" are foreshadowed. There is a sinister sign for an Ameri- -can, who has held exalted positions. He will surrender prestige and become unpopular because of ill-advised and impetuous acts and utterances. This month will be exceedingly unlucky for aim and he will suffer severely from mental and physical conditions. Again a great national feminist movement is presaged by the stars. This is not political, the seers declare. Persons whose birthdate it is have the prognostication of change that will bring success, and prosperity. Children born on this day will enjoy life. They may be high-spirited and headstrong, but they will be able to dominate circumstances and to command success. ' FRIDAY, NOVEMBER-M, 1914. vu - * - * « «•.', f "<• -vU- - • S *r He who works early will best succeed today according to the prognostications of the astrologers. Although Saturn exercises an evil influence before daybreak, Mars, Uranus, Mercury and Venus are in beneflc aspect in the morning hours of work. In the afternoon the sun is adverse. It is held that the planets presage a winter of great trial to the peopto of all nations, who will suffer poverty and^ illness. The seers agree on general predictions of distress, but a London astrologer sees that again Daniel's prophecy Is to be fulfilled and that a certain king shall see his kingdom "broken and divided to the four winds and not to his posterity nor acording to his dominion which he ruled for his kingdom." .There is an encouraging sign for women today. In business and professional affairs they should benefit They will organize in new enterprises and will accomplish much for the benefit of humanity in the next year. Romance is subject to most encouraging conditions. The stars Indicate a - growth of sentiment and return to less mercenary standards of marriage than have prevailed recently. Advertising is governed favorably during this configuration. Publicity should be profitable to promoters of world interests, , The afternoon is not a fortunate time.for diplomacy or for seeking aid *or advice from persons In high place. Dealers in hardware, hunters, fishermen and woodsmen are subject to kicky guidance today. Among those on whom Mars smiles are arcUUects, stonemasons, carpenters, launderers and tobacconists.

Much competition In all vocations is foretold, but out of great exigencies will grow large achievements. Actors, singers, painters and sculptors should benefit in the morning. They have the prognostication of prosperous days after the new year is becoming old. There 1B a prophecy that the United States will become the new center of artistic life and that music will claim serious attention from the nation. Theaters are under a government of the stars, which presages many changes In the personnel of managers and players. The outlook Is not good for American actors this month or next, but there is promise of ultimate gain in the development of new forces now artwork. Under this sign preparers of medicine are believed to prosper. There is a prediction that American chemists are to win fame and fortune. Fame for a woman who will dictate the fashions is prophesied, but whether she will succeed as a designer or merely as a demonstrator of modes is not made plain by the seers. Astrologers who read the signs for South America find little forecast of rapidly Increasing trade with the United States, which will be slow to utilize opportunity, it Is declared. Bankers are subject to planetary sway which is said to indicate obstacles and problems of grave character. Socialism Is, well, a specter. It will gather astonishing power, the seers declare,- owing to a still-unwritten page of history, which is to change public opinion. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of rather a prosperous year. There is a warning agalnBt possible indiscretion in dealings w*th persons of opposite sex. Children born on this day are likely to enjoy life. Boys should be successful in whatever vocations they choose. Girls probably will be great belles... 8UNDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1914. This Is a day of contradictory influences, according to astrology. While Neptune, Saturn and Uranus are all adverse, Venus and the sun are in ben efio aspect. Mars changes from evil to good. The best aspect of the day is for earnest, enthusiastic minds that seek to solve big —problems. The sun gives domination, power, vigor and foresight. Rulers and all who have the destinies of nations in their keeping should benefit. It is a fairly good day for women, who should be fortunate In their love affairs. Marriages and engagements are subject to a good ruling. Neptune presages danger from schemers. Fraud and misrepresentation are believed to flourish under this rule. It is predicted that crimes that have to do with money will multiply during the winter. Uranus is in place held to be most ^unfortunate for those who should use good judgment. Important decisions should be delayed until a more auspicious time. The planets do not give any assurance of speedy ending of war. There is prophecy of a winter campaign more terrible than any that has ever been endured. The seers declare that the crossing of the Alps by Napoleon's army produced less suffering than will be endured during the coming winter. Persons whose birthdate It is are advised to avoid too much diversion. have a prosperous yetr. Those who are employed will 'benefit The young will become engaged or will marry. Children born on this day may have dispositions that are mercurial and difficult to deal with, but they will have bright minds and should succeed In life.

According to the reading of the stars, this is rather an unimportant day. Jupiter is In beneflc aspect, but Saturn is adverse, and it is wise to exercise caution. The rule is fairly good for bankers, merchants, and lawyers, who should find the day's activities important chiefly because they lead taJ>roadened fields of industry.

Children born on this day should prosper all through life. They will enjoy work as well as play. Boys should like outdoor sports and have great physical strength. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1914. This is rather an unfortunate day, for while in the early hours. Mercury and Saturn are in beneflc aspect, the sun and Venus are strongly adverse later. It is a most unlucky time for seeking positions or for attempting any enterprise depending upon the assistance of men in power, financially or commercially. Women are warned to be cautious. The planets indicate that the next few months will not be favorable to feminist movements or to agitation along reform lines. Astrologers hold that, owing to the great loss of men in the European war, women will be forced into prominence in many lines of work, but they foresee danger in any tendency to force great issues. The death of a woman prominent in society and philanthropic activities is foretold. She has attained world-wide fame, it Is said, and her loss will be mourned in other countries. Saturn today gives encouragement to agriculturists, florists, miners and all who find wealth in the ground. The new year will bring prosperity to all who sell land, or till It, the seers declare. It le an exceedingly unlucky day for love affairs. Domestic conditions are likely to be disturbed while this rule prevails. Vanity, Indulgence in useless luxuries, and selfishness are believed to be produced in persons susceptible to the influence of Venus, when the star is unfriendly. Self-control Bhould be practiced while the government prevails. Jupiter is believed to presage the passing of laws favorable to labor and industry, but strikes are foretold. Persons whose birthdate it is may have worries in the family circle. Men should be wise in conducting their affairs. Children born on this day have rather a menacing omen. They may often need money, and they will demand much of life. These subjects of Sagittarius should be honorable, persevering, and not easily discouraged •A* WEDNE8DAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1914» Good and evil balance in the scales today, according to the reading of the stars. While Mercury is in a place strongly beneflc in its influence, Mars rules stubbornly for evil. Neptune is slightly adverse and Jupiter rather favorable.

Since yesterday, I say!" "I'm sorry, ma'am." "When I want your sympathy I'll ask for it. Till then be good enough to keep your mouth shut. Now, where is my husband?" "How should I know?"

Come, don't keep me waiting." "Well, ma'am, I think I—I think I know why your husband left home." CLERK DESERVED THE ROSE His Process of Clever Reasoning Was Certainly Well Worth the Decoration. When a telegram arrived at the Waldorf addressed to Mrs. S. Harkins, Edward Glasheen, the information clerk, looked through his .big book and found no person by the name of Harkins was stopping in the hotel. It is a part of his duties, according to the New York Times, to deliver telegrams that at first look undeliverable, and as he studied the address on the telegram, knowing something about the Morse alphabet, he remembered that "h" is four dots and a "p" is five. Whereupon he looked into his big book again and found that Mrs. S. Parkins was stopping in the hotel. When Mrs. Parkins came t o the desk he handed her the telegram and asked if it was for her. She handed it back. "I am sure it is t o t for me," she said. "Would you mind opening and making sure," asked Glasheen. Mrs. Parkins tore open the envelope and glanced at the signature. "Why, It is for me!" she exclaimed. Then Glasheen picked up the rose somebody had just presented to John Woelfle, his assistant, and stuck it In his buttonhole.

During these months "there is little pressing work in rural communities and the attend- 4LQce is consequently the largest. The dates are fixed by the Superintendent of Public Inetrnction ^and the calls are sent out by the •comity school commissioners. \It sometimes happens that because of railroads and train •connections school officers are put ~to considerable inconvenience and •expense to attend the meeting in -their own county where the meeting~ p)aoe of au adjoining county is easily ajcessible. In such cases it might be well to note that these officers maj attend the meeting in ?the adjoining county, receiving the same credit and compensation. However school officers attending meetings outside their own counties should take two certificates of attendance aud file one with their echool commissioner in order that be may check up and give credit to all districts. In the past years the attendance of school officers has come to be uniformly large. Relatively few boards are not represented. Townsbip clerks,too are are finding the discussions at these meetings helpful to them in their work in connection, with the school: Ae school officers are now pretty well veraed in school law more attention is being directed to lines of school policy, administration, instruction, community work, and the vitalizing factors and agencies ot the school. This year a cordial invitation- is extended to patrons. The meetings should be utilized in the largest possible 'way to bring together, state, county and district in the building up of -strong loyal school sentiment that shall increase the support and the efficiency of the school.

WATER, THE Thrte of* Crew Fatally Scalded by Bollar Explosion—Battle of Flandera Goes On, Allies Claiming to Be Successful In Holding Positions— German Cruiser Emden Destroyed —Russians Occupy Gaiictan Towns. London, Nov. 14.—The British dreadaaught Audacious, one of the great sea fighters launched In 1918, has struck a German mine off the coast Of Ireland. Only the presence near by of the White Star liner Olympic saved the vessel's 1,000 officers and men from death by drowning. The Olympic towed the Audacious into Lough Swilly, a small harbor on the North Irish coast. The warship then sank in shallow water. One hundred and forty-seven of the 'Audacious' crew were scalded, three of them fatally. The dreadnaught's boilers were Jurat by the explosion, blowing a gapins hole in her upper works, but not causing sufficient damage to sink her immediately. The Audacious, was completed in 1918, with her sister ship, the AJax, and was a dreadnaught of the King George class. Her displacement was 25,000 tons, her length over all 696 feet She was equipped with ten 18%-lnch guns, SO four-inch guns and three 21-inch torpedo tubes. Allies Hold Positlone. London, Nov. 14.—From the Lye to the sea the battle of Flanders waa carried to the Germans, the French* British and Belgians having resumed the offensive at several points as soon as the energy of the German effort gave signs of being spent. Ypres was the center of the most ferocious fighting. Where on Wednesday the Germans, by force of superior numbers, had been able during a night attack to force their way into Ypres, from which they were expelled with enormous losses on Thursday morning, and where on Thursday night the allies had only been able to hold their own against the rapidly waning German attack, during the day tho allies 'took the offensive* and hurled the enemy back to the east, north end south. Germane Stilt In Dlxmude. An aggregate gain of nearly four miles was made by the allies' attack. To the east a hamlet from which the allies were driven on Wednesday was retaken. In Dlxmude the German detachments still are anchored* The key position—Ypres—is still '.eld by the British troops, who have withstood attacks of unexampled violence with unwavering courage for nearly four weeks. South of Ypres is Armentieres, around which the battle has been continuing with undiminished energy for a fortnight The allies occupy positions east of the town, and between their line and those of the Germans in artillery duel of violent character Is being fought The battle of the Aisne has been revived, and is being refought though with obviously diminishing numbers. v Allies' Progress Slight In the official report of the opera* ttons before Tracy-Ie-Val, which the French have gained after enormous losses on both sides, there is a qualification from which a bit of humor might be extracted in less gruesome circumstances. The statement says: "We have taken possession of Tracy, with the exception of the cemetery northeast of the village," Reports from the battlefield declare the town itself has been converted into a graveyard by the fury of the German night attacks and the connter- assamlts by whioh the allies finally dislodged the invaders, A violent artillery duel, is proceeding In the Arganne.

London, Nov. 12.—The cruiser Emden of Germany, which has sunk more than 20 merchantmen, chiefly English vessels, and two warships, since the war began, has been destroyed in the Bay of Bengal by the Australian cruiser Sydney, it was officially announced by the admiralty. The Emden was driven ashore on Coco island and burned. Her fire-blackened hull was blown up by the Sydney. It is announced that only about twenty of the crew of the German cruiser escaped out of a complement of 861. Captain von Muller of the German Cruiser Emden and Prince Francis Joseph of Hohenzollern, one of his officers, are both prisoners of war and neither is wounded, according to an announcement by the admiralty.

The German cruiser Koenigsherg has been imprisoned by British ships off the coast of British East Africa and cannot escape because of obstructions placed in the channel, tt is officially announced by the government press bureau. Russians Oocupy Gailclan Towns. Vienna, Ndv. 14.—It was officially admitted by the war office here that the Russians have occupied Tarnow, Jaslo and Krosno, In Gallcla. London, Nov. 14.—News was received In Petrograd that the Russians in Essex, is abont seventy miles northeast of London. The news caused considerable excitement In London and had a depressing effect on the public mind, already distressed by the announcement that British casualties had reached the figure of 57,000 up to October 3L Call a Million More Men. London, Nov. 14.—The Gritlsh government will caU for. 1,000,000,more men to fight the Germans. This number Is in excess of the number of men already voted for 1914 and 1916* tt does not affect the territorial force. The additional 1,000,000 men will bring the British forces up to 8,188,- 400. On August 5 there was a supplementary estimate of 500,000 followed on September 9 by 500,000 more. The number of men now called out by the government answers the requirements of the year ending March 81, 1915. Turks In Revolt. Bucharest Nov. 14.—The newspapers state that the revolt in the Turkish army against its German officers is increasing}. Two of these officers at Constantinople and three at Adralnople have been killed. On the night qf October 28 a great explosion occurred at the' palace of Bnver Pasha, who escaped. London,: Nov. 18.-—A wireless dispatch from/^Berlin says an official statement from Constantinople reports that the Russians are retreating on the entire Transcaqcasian frontier, and that the Turks are pursuing on all sides. "The Turkish armies have succeeded in completing the attack which GREAT BRITAIN'S AVIATION STRATEGISTS Grahame White (center), In charge of the aviation forces of Great Britain, and Lieutenant Porte (right), who was to have attempted the transatlantic flight in the America, in consultation. have defeated General von Hlndenburg's army west of Kaltscz and have driven it beyond the frontier of Silesia* The Germans are reported to have suffered a severe reverse, losing 20 heavy guns and leaving many dead upon the field. The report is unofficial, but is published by Russian newspapers with the consent of the censor. Correspondents at the front for Petrograd newspapers telegraph that the Germans made a desperate effort to defend a line of entrenchments- from Kaliscs to Csenstoehowa, but could not stand against the bayonet attacks of the Russian infantry. The victory is said to have been gained largely as the result of the rapidity of the Russians in sending a,large cavalry force around the left wing of General von Hlndenburg's army. Austria for Peace, Bankers Believe. New *>rk, Nov. 15.—In some banking circles credit is given to the report that within the last two or tbree days Austria has asked a powerful state to ascertain from the allies what terms they would be* willing to grant to- that country in the event that tt entered into negotiations for peace Independently of Germany* It is tupposed that it may have been on account of knowledge of such overtures that Premier Asquith in the house of oommons the other, day intimated that the war might ead sooner, than' ex* Gorman AireMpe Over England.

Washington* Nov. 14.«—Tha United States will not interfere With Great Britain and Prance if they determine to settle with Colombia and Ecuador for alleged violations of neutrality in allowing German steamers to coal or permitting wireless stations to give news to German warships. That violations of neutrality exist was denied to the s^U department by the Colombian and Ecuadorean legations. Chile has already proved to Great Britain that she had not violated neutrality, either by the use of wireless or favoritism to merchant ships of any of the belligerents.

Paris Claims Germans Are Repulsed. Paris—The left bank of the Tser has been cleared entirely of the Germans and a telling defeat was administered by the allies in contact with Invaders on the right bank during the fighting Sunday claim the French. Complete evacuation of the western bank of the canal whioh the Germans have held for so long was announced In the official communique from Bordeaux. The official statement lays the greatest strett, however, on the fighting on the right bank. Here the Germans held strongly advantageous positions at Nieuport and at Dlxmude. The fury of the allies' offensive was directed against the tatter position, which the communique admits is still held by the Germans. •' Unofficial accounts of the fighting described a terrific battle for this position.- The Germans, who had mounted machine guns in the few remaining towers, left the ruined village and cannon had been trained down the thoroughfares leading to the westward and commanding the trenches held by heavily reinforced allies, while from the western edge of the town new and heavily protected trenches had been dug by the Germans. The allies bombarded the Germans In the town from the western bank and under cover of the heavy cannonading, made repeated attempts to cross and take the town on the other side of the canal by storm. The vigor of the artillery and small arms fusilade made the crossing such a perilous effort that the frontal attack finally was abandoned. Russians Active In East. I n the eastern theatre, on the Russian right wing, two armies are advancing toward the East Prussian defense line of Dantzlg-Thorn, with the obvious purpose of holding the River Vistula from the Baltic to Thorn and making any turning movement by the Germans in the north impossible when the central Russian armies now advancing in west Poland against Breslau, are^ ready to strike with full force. The First army holds Stalluponen and the railway line to Gumbinnen and Xnaterburg, and is believed to have occupied probably 25 oV 80 miles of German territory. The Second army, cooperating with great aneray, is advancing in an entirely new line, toward the northwest and has gained a foothold at Soldau, Johannesburg and the region of AHenstein. There are reports that the Germans are attempting an offensive movement from Thorn, where they have concentrated new troops. * . - bLPomnd, there Russian armies are attacking the frontier of Posen and Silesia, concerned for the moment with driving every Gemnah detachment from Polish soil, A force of Russians has broken through the German defense at the Warthc ami-hae pushed an advance guard late the ptovioo of Posen, holding a peslttoa Reduction in Living Costs Made Pce> eible by Perfect Product The sudden and hffrhly alarming toerease In cost of food .necessities, such' as sugar and flour, demand laereaaea domestic economy.

C. Committee. Surprising ^results were obtained Tuesday in Chicago, when, in a distance test on the boulevards, h 1915 big six went 28.7 miles on a gallon of Red Crown gasoline. The test'was made to demonstrate the fuel economy of high test gasoline, by the technical committee of the Chicago Automobile Club. Red Crown gasoline, 58 test was decided upon by the judges and drivers as the best gasoline to be used. All through the trip the dutch was not slipped, except when traffic congestion made it necessary. The dash adjustment on the carburetor waa disconnected, and in order that the test be a fair one, the fan was in operation throughout the run. Next came the acceleration test With the carburetor adjustment the - same as during the economy run, fhe car was driven from standing start to thirty miles an hour in 12 4-6 eeeonds. The flexibility test saw the car run at four miles an hour, fthen speeded up to forty-four. The test proves that the Six is not an excessive fuel consumer, where the best gasoline is used. The Bachelor's Marriage. George Ade (that incurable and brilliant bachelor) said at a dinner In Chicago: "I met a friend of mine the other day—a. bachelor friend who had recently got married. Giving him a vigorous thump on the back, I cried Jovially: " 'Well, old man, no more sock darning now, eh?' " 'No, indeed/ he answered.

The confessions that I am about to make here, unreservedly and without evasion, are prompted only by my desire to show to the people in the smaller cities and towns of America the absolute' folly and unwisdom of the policy of supporting big mall order establishments) at the expense and absolute loss of the hard-working local business men. who are doing their best to, build up their own communities; all of which work benefits and adds to the prosperity of every resident of the home town; at the, same time adding most materially to the value of every foot of real estate In the community. Of the ninety-odd millions of eouls and bodies that inhabit these United States of America a very large pro-' portion live in the country and in small towns and villages. These people are the producers. They raise the grains and foodstuffs and the wool and the* meat, bides, etc Those who live In the big cities are practically all dependent upon the efforts of Ifeose who live in the country, and in the small towns. They do not produce anything in comparison with the work of those who wrest from the soil the bountiful offerings of Nature. It is the work of those who lives in the cities to figure out how they can obtain that which is produced by the country people—*ow they can juggle the values of this product—how much money they can make out of it, eta They do not produce anything. They are the parasites. Without the country people there would be no cities. There would-be no occasion for cities because there would be nothing to support them. So it Is the plan of the universe, as laid down by our rules and laws, that a certain big proportion of the people shall toil and spin while the smaller proportion shall exact the greater part of that which Is produced by the toilers and make a profit sufficient to enable them to live in luxury while fhe toilers toll on, continuously. It is not the toilers and spinners who take the trips to Europe. It it not the toilers and spinners who get up In the morning at due o'clock and who spend their evenings at the theaters, cafes and cabarets, drinking wine end playing cards. The tollers and spinners get out of bed when the family alarm clock out in the hen-house tells them day Is breaking. They have no time for the theater or the cafe or the cabaret. It's a case of "hustle** all the time. It Is vital that every working hour In the day shall be utilized in order to "produce" that which the scheme of our life in the present day provides1 must be produced to keep the whole machinery of civilisation in motion. What would happen to the people In the cities if this whole scheme should become disarranged—if there did not arrive la the cities, oa schedule time vtwf day, the train loans of cattle, grain, milk and all sorts of country produce. And the mall bags, filled with orders for the mail order houses. What' would happen? There would aot loag remain any citizens because they would starve, these parasites, If the source of supplies should be cut off. And all of these supplies come from the oounutry, from the people in this community. Tou do your full share toward supplying the cities. Especially do you send your share of the orderB for the mail order houses, with the cash. There 1B a strange partnership between the people of the country and the people of the city, a partnership which, carefully analyzed, shows the following working agreement: The country people shall delve,and dig and toil and thea hasten to ship their product to the city partner, who takes possession and disposes of the same to the best possible advantage (to himself). He then hands out to the country partner, begrudgingly and frequently only la case of a suit M law, a small part of the proceeds. Then you, the country partner, scad this pittance back to the city, to the mail order house with an order. : Such is the result of a bald and tmvern^ed j»aalysts of the partnership batwaea farm and city, after applying* the> add test Individual exceptions do aot change jar alter the general rule.

Tailored Suits Undeniably Martial, and -Al*o Smart—illustration Reveals How the Idea Haa Taken Feminine Fancy. Zf the brass buttons and other military paraphernalia are to make an appeal now Is the time. Bursting shells and the sound of drums in some corner qf the world, whether it be far or near, shows a very decided military influence in the world of fashion, and the tears we shed over the tragic losses each day reveals are more than apt to fall on our own brass buttons and gold braid promptly supplied by vigilant Dame Fashion for the fitting occasion, writes Lillian E. Young in the Washington Star. Many of the newest tailored suits and frocks are undeniably martial in appearance, and, let it be added, undeniably smart on that account Here, for example, is one In black velvet with collar and cuffs of white fox and buttons and braid—well, no, they aren't brass—for silver is so fashionable, you see, and goes well with black. The long body of the coat is very slightly gathered under a corded waist line started at either side of the front and slanted to a point in back. This also forms a heading to the full coattail.

The straight lines of the long, full tunic skirt are broken at the knee COLORS FOR COLO WEATHER WITH THE ETON JACKET American designers have revived the eton jacket for fall wear. In this model, one of many charming onee aeen on the avenue, the eton Jacket is of black broadcloth. The skirt Is a Russian tunic, with broad accordion plaits. A black and white striped girdle in vest form completes this three-piece garment. A rolling medlcl collar gives it that ohic set-off whloh Amerloan designers are using to such good advantage. The toque Is of black velvet with black ribbon feather*. across the sides and back by an applied cording that holds in a scant line of gathers. The underskirt Is narrow and quite plain. The modis*! silver-trimmed black hats are particularly well salted to such a costume a* tola Moire Watch Bracelet. The very latest wrist watch Is ex. ceedingly small, and instead of the usual bracelet of platinum, gold or silver, It is made of moire ribbon'onehalf inch wide, double, and fastened with a buckle or clasp. Some of the watches are scarcely larger than a five-cent piece, the face surrounded with Jewels. The clasps" for the ribbon are also jeweled. Taffeta and Pique Combined. Some ordinary morning blouses are a combination of taffeta and pique, the taffeta making the body of the blouse, the pique the collar and the cuffs. Lingerie blouses have made their reappearance in striped effects, a stripe of wide Valenciennes lace alternating with a stripe of tucked batiste, making a very lacy affair. sion, and remember that lips which curve upward and smile 'are much more attractive than the drooping sort.

Taking one year with another, the efficiency of Its lands to produce has been well proved. It has not been said of It that year in and year out there were bumper and bounteous crops. If such a condition existed It would be phenomenal In the history of any country- With an extensive territory producing grain, hogs, cattle and sheep, of some 800 miles wide and 1,000 miles long, It is easy to conceive of a wide variation in temperature and climate; there is variation in rainfall and snowfall; every section is not the beat in the district—some are better than others and some worse, but as a general thing, the great percentage is "better." This past year has shown that some portions are not altogether immune from periods of drought. The same may be said of adjoining states to the south. But this year has also shdwn that in the greater portion of Western Canada drought does not appear, but even in the drought-stricken area of this year, past years have shown that the soil produces wonderfully well and even this year, with modern methods, known as "dry-farming," good-crops were harvested. The large number of Americans who during the past sixteen years have been attracted to Canada have not gone simply because of the advertising of that country, but because their friends and their oldtime neighbors have done well there, and with careful and judicious farming almost everyone has done well. As a result of the great influx of immigration the open or prairie homesteading area is being rapidly taken up. The fact that this is so is evidence that Western Canada lands are productive, and on these open plains today are to be seen the hemes of successful farmers from almost every state in the Union. They have earned their patents and now own outright their 160 acrea of land, together probably with an adjoining 160 acres, which they have purchased or pre* empted, ail of which Is worth from $25 to $30 per acre. They originally started by growing grains, altogether, but they found that they could secure a better price for much of their grata by feeding it to hogs and cattle, and the most successful ones are those who have followed this course. But to meet the wants oJ the newcomer a new homestead area has been opened up, known as the "park country/' In this park country are to bo found beautiful groves of poplar and willow, small lakes and streams, with sufficient open area to enable one to go Into immediate cultivation of crop, and in due time when they wish more land to be put under cultivation, they may at small cost cut down some of the groves, which in the meantime have been valuable in providing fuel and In giving shelter, to cattle. Notwithstanding the high character of the open prairie lands aad the fact that farmers there have realized in a splendid way, there is v the opinion backed up' by a lot of experience that this parklike country contains soil even better than that of the open area referred to. The opportunities, therefore, for money making are as great today as they ever were. The opportunities for carrying on farming successfully artfully as great as they ever were. 'Of this park area we have an immense quantity of land yet to be settloft It Is true that the railroads have not yet penetrated these districts to the extent that they have the open area, but this will come and as settlements advance, so will railroads build. For the present there is a temporary loll la railroad building, but it is always the case that where there is a demand there will come a supply, and it will not be long before the park country will be penetrated by railroads that will give sufficient accommodation for all needs, but to those who prefer it there are lots of opportunities for purchasing land nearer towns and villages and at low prices aad oa easy terms. Whether one cares to purchase or. homestead it can better be does by paying a visit to the country aad It will repay yoa to spend soma ttttfe time visiting the different distrteta— Advertisement >K Now York selasmau tells of a Non-^iwactrva. stay made by atm ag a westeta toast where ha observed an oJe>fti*iea*d: roller towel. . - *. -l.

At this uncanny reading of hla mind Mr. Cottontail darted off into the woods again to seek out his mate and Inform her that their guilt had been discovered. Finally, Samuel came to the break In the woodland, an open field of rye, green as springtime grass, and his own exquisitely neat /abode beckoning across the gray rail fence to him. How pretty Blossy's geraniums looked in the sitting-room windows! Bven at this distance, too, he could see that she had not forgotten to water his pet abutllon and begonias. How welcome in the midst of this flurry of •now—how welcome to his eye was that smoke coming out of the chimneys 1 All the distress of his trip away from home seemed worth while now for the joy of coming back. Before he had taken down the fencemil and turned into the path which led jto his back door, he was straining his {•ars for the sound of Blossy's voice gossiping with. Angy.

He went to a side door, to the front entrance*, and found the •whole house locked, and no key to be discovered. It was still early In the \ morning, earlier than Blossy would have been likely to set out upon an errand or to spend the day; and then, too, she was not one to risk her health In such chilly, damp weather, with every sign of a heavy storm. ; Samuel became alarmed. He called "Blossy i" No answer. "Mis' >r No answer. "Bsra!" And jetm no sound In reply. Bis alarm tnereased.

Blossy was not there, Angy was not there, nor anyone belonging to the household. But sitting on that very bundle of canvas, stretching his'lean hands over the etove, with Samuel's cat on his lap, was the "Old Hoss"—Abraham Rose! {here, yew an* Angy both, an' spend yer week oat Tea, yes," as Abe would have thanked him.

With one of those freakish turns of the weather that takes the conceit cut of all weather-prophets, the snow- bad now ceased to fall, the sun was struggling out of the clouds, and the wind was swinging around to the west Neither of the old men could longer fret-about their wives being caught In a heavy snow; but, nevertheless, their anxiety concerning the whereabouts of the women did not cease, and the homesickness which Abe felt for Angy, •The mtoitt* stock!" he mattered; and than low to himself, in an awed whisper: "Tonally Gold!

The cat jumped off Abe's lap, run* ning to Samuel with a mew of recognition. Abe turned his head, and made a startled ejaculation. "Sam'l Darby," he said stubbornly, "ef yew've come tew drag me back to that air beach, yew're wastln' time, I won't go!" Samuel closed the door and hung his damp coat and cap over a suit of old oilskins. He came to the fire, Using off his mittens and blowing on his fingers, the suspicious and condemnatory tall of his eye on Abraham. "HaoWd yew git herer he burst forth. "What yew bin an' done with my wife, an' my horse, an' my man, an' my kerridge? Haow'd yew git here? what'd yew come fer? When'd yew git here?" "What'd yew come ferr retorted Abe with some spirit. "Haow'd yew git herer' "None o* yer durn* business." A glimmer of the-old twinkle came back Into Abe's eye, and he began to chuckle. "I guess we might as waal tell the truth, Saml. We both tried to .be so all-fired young yesterday that we got played out, an' concluded unanermoas that the best place fer a A No. 1 spree was ter hum." Samuel gave a weak smile, and drawing up a stool took the oat upon his knee. "Yet," he confessed grudgingly, "I found out fer one that I haini no spring lamb." "Ner me, nuther," Abe's old Ups trembled. "I had eyester-stew an' drunk coffee In the middle o' the ntght; then the four-o'clock patrol wakes me up agin. 'Here, be a sport,'they says, an' sticks a piece o' hot mince pie under my nose. Then I was so oneasy I couldn't sleep. Daybreak I got up, an' went tor a walk ter limber up my belt, an' I sorter wandered over ter the bay side, an1 not a mile oat I see tew men with one o' them big fishin'scooters a-haulln' in their net An' I walked a ways out on the ice, a-signailn' with my bandana han'kercher; an' arter a time they seen me..

I thought rd come an' git Angy," he ended with a sigh, "an' yer hired man'd drive us back ter Shorevllle; but thar wa'n't nobody hum but a mewin' cat, an' the only place I oonld git inter was this here shop. Wonder whar the gals has gone?" No mention of the alarm that he must by this time have caused at the station, No consciousness of having committed any .breach against the laws of hospitality. But there was that in the old man's face, in his worn and wistful look, which curbed Samuel's tongue and made him understand that as a little child misses his mother so Abe had missed Angy, an<J as a little homesick child comes running hack to the place he knows heat so Aha wag hastening hack to the shelter he had scorned. So, with an effort, Samuel held his peace, merely resolving that as soon yew, 'cus mebbe 't was a joke, an' to wait till mornin' an' go see SamTs lawyer down ter Injun Head. That's whar we've jest come from, an' we telephoned ter Quogue station from thar.

Toward noontime they heard the welcome sound of wheels, and on rushing to the door saw Ezra driving alone to the barn. He did not note their appearance in the doorway of the shop; but they could see from the look on his face that nothing had gone amiss. Samuel heard the shutting of the kitchen door, and knew that Blossy was at home, and a strange shyness submerged of a sudden his eagerness to see her. . What would she say to this unexpected return T Would she laugh at ? him, or be disappointed? "Yew go fust," he urged Abe, "an* tell my wife that I've got the chilblains an' lumbago so bad I can't hardly git tew the house, an' I had ter come hum fer my 'St. Jerushy lie' an' her receipt fer frosted feet" CHAPTER XX. The Fatted Calf. Abe had no such qualms as Samuel. He wanted to see Angy that minute, and he did not care if she did know why he had returned. He fairly ran to the back door under the grape arbor, so that Samuel, observing his gait was seised with a fear that he might be that young Abe of the Beach, during his visit after all. Abraham rushed into the kitchen without stopping to knock. "I'm back, mother," he cried, as if that were all the joyful explanation needed. She was struggling with the strings of her bonnet before the looking-glass which adorned Blossy's parlor-kitchen. She turned to him with a little cry, and he saw that her face had changed marvelously—grown young, grown glad, grown soft and fresh with a new excited spirit of jubilant thanksgiving. "Oh, father! Were a t yew s'prised tew git the telephone? X knowed yew'd come a-flyin' back." Blossy appeared from the room beyond, and slipped past them, knowing intuitively where she would find her lord and master; but neither of them observed her entrance or her exit Angy clung to Abe, and Aba held her close. What had happened to her, the undemonstrative old wife? What made her so happy, and yet tremble so? Why did she cry. wetting; his cheek with her tears, when she was so palpably glad? Why had she telephoned for him, unless she, too, had missed tym as he had missed her? Recalling his memories of last night the memories of that long-ago honeymoon- time, he murmured into his gray beard, "Dearest!" She did net seem to think he was growing childish. She was not even surprised. At last she said, half between sobbing and laughing: "Oh, Abe, ain't God been good to us? Ain't it jlst bewtlful to be rich? Rich!" she cried. "RichI" Abe sat down suddenly, and covered his face with his hands.' In a flash he understood, and he could not let even Angy see him In the light of the revelation. 'pear tew think very much of it; but Blossy, she got him ter call up some broker feller In 'York, an' 'Gee whims!' he says, turnin' 'round all excited from the phone. Ten ally Gold is sellin' fer twenty dollars on the curb right this minute!' An* he says, says he: Tew git yer husband, an' bring that air/ stock over this srternoon; an'/ saya he, '111 realise on It fer yer termorrer morninV" . . Abe stared at his wife, sAter shining silk dress with its- darns and careful patches, at her rough, worn hands, and at the much mended lace over her slender wrists. "That mine was closed down 18 years ago; they must 'a' opened it up ag'in;" he spoke dully, as one stunned. Then with a sudden burst of energy, his eyes still oh his wife's figure: "Mother, that dress o' yourn is a disgrace fer the wife of a ftnancierer. Yew better git a new silk fer yerself an' Miss Abigail, tew, fust thing. Her Sunday one hain't nothin* extry." "But yer old beaver,'Abel" Angy protested. "It looks as ef it come out o'the ark!" "Last Sunday yew said it looked splendid;" his tone was absent-minded again. He aeemed almost to ramble br his speech. "We must see that Ishmael gits fixed up comfortable in the Old Men's home; yew remember haow he offered us all his pennies that day we .broke up housexeepln'. An' we must do Bomethtn' handsome fer the Darbys, tew. Ef it hadn't been fer Sam'l, I might be dead naow, an' never know nothin' erbout this here streak o' luck.

It is mora difficult to store and keep loo of this character than that harvested in regular cakes. ( Thin ice is characteristic of the southern Umits of the storage of natural ice. The supply is more or less uncertain and the storage period is long. The irregular form of the cakes makes it difficult to pack the ice so las to prevent air spaces, which may Worm air passages and cause rapid loam. Irregular blocks and cakes are less easily insulated than cakes of uniform sice and thickness. If the mass is stored in a building without packing material about it, insulation must be provided in the construction of the house. The walls must be thick, well packed with mill •havings or dry sawdust, and tightly boarded on both sides of the packing material A space of IS inches between the walls, tightly Pacini *;Ui good in* suiatlng material, is none too much. jAn added safeguard would be to 'double both the outside and Inside [walla, harvesting Ice from six to fifteen In thickness permits the use tools and implements that find no In harvesting thin toe.

Under certain conditions the only practicable way of obtaining a supply of natural ice is to catch it aa it is going out in the spring. When the snow melts and the spring rains come, the ice at the headwaters of streams breaks up and is carried down in large masses, which can be caught at considerable distances from the localities where it was formed. In this way ice can be obtained at small cost. In the early days many plantations along the Potomac harvested an annual supply of ice of this character and stored it for the most part in pits. Those fortunate enough to live near large streams may often obtain their ice supply in this way. Velvet Dresses Considered Most Appropriate— Changes in the Color • of Neckwear. Velvet dresses for young girls are the smart thing of the afternoon wear. They are made with a long waist and a short skirt, made of^two circular flounces; between these is a satin belt or sash. A collar of pique or lace, cut sailor or rounding, is the usual neck finish. The sleeveless over blouses of velvet that are seen on the grown-up dresses are also a feature of those worn by girls'oTifourteen. They are rather like s^middy blouse in shape, but not so tocg, and the arm-hole is very much enlarged, so that the foundation dress of serge shows. Different shaped buttons not only come in plain colors in dark modish shades, brown, plum, blue and fawns, but are also decorated by odd stripes of a contrasting color. Sometimes there is only one stripe across the center, sometimes it is the button edge that has pendllike lines of s deeper or lighter color. The Suit coats are made both in the long and in the short lengths. Some of the smart models are of the redingote type, the coat reaching the three-quar ter length. Some of the lace guimpes are of em broidered net of the applique type of lace, and they finiBh at the top with a round neck that does not come quite up to the base of the throat. Last summer the lovely touch OL white neckwear was In organdie and lawn; now it is of cream net and lace. In the finer costumes, and of pique In those dresses that smack of the tailor made.

Simple Routine Will Enable Thin Girl to Secure Results in Three or Four Weeks. The thin girl is coming into her own these days, but there is such a thln& as being too thin. The words of Joseph Cawthorne, "I like 'em plump," set the standard. This plumpness can be obtained by careful effort The first step towards this is to avoid nerves, fretting and irritability, Retire early and remain in bed as long as possible. / Drink no tea or coffee, rather milk, cocoa or chocolate.

Curfew memories are revived by these new official orders for "lights out" in London. There are places where the new decrees will seem less drastic, because the old law of early Norman times is still observed, so far, at least as the ringing of the curfew bell. ' The little surrey village of Chertsey, for instance, still re-echoes to the ringing of curfew at sundown from September 29 to March 25. Londoners, though few of them seem to know it, may hear curfew tolled every nfght at nine o'clock in Lincoln's inn. And Canterbury bells still ring out the curfew as they did centuries ago.— London Chronicle. ,__ Important to Mothers) Examine carefully every bottle of CASTORIA, a safe and sure remedy for infants and children, and sec that it Bears the Signature of In Use For Over 80 Children Cry for Fletcher's Castorin The Remedy.

London, Nov. 27.—The British battleship Bulwark was blown up and, sunk in the estuary of the Medway rirer on Thursday. Between 700 and £00 men were lost, including Capt Guy Belater, her commander, and all her officers. Only 12 of her crew were saved. It is announced officially that the explosion was interior and originated in the ship's magazine. The disaster is the most appalling, with the exception of the loss of the Audacious, the British navy has suffered in the war. The men aboard her had not a fighting chaace for their lives. The vessel was at the bottom in three minutes. Churchill Tells ef Disaster. Announcement of tbe loss of the Bulwark ia {Sheerness harbor was made in the house of commons by Winston Churchill, first lord of the admiralty. Mr. Churchill's official statement follows: 'The battleship Bulwark was lying in the harbor at Sheerness when she was blown up. The disaster occurred at 7:68 o'clock in the morning. The ship was torn absolutely asunder and had entirely disappeared* when the smoke cleared away. It Is the opinion of the admirals at Sheerness that the ship was destroyed by an explosion of the magazine. Only 14 members of the crew were saved. The destruction of the Bulwark will not sensibly affect our military or naval position." , May Have Been Torpedoed. The Bulwark was built in 1899. 8he was 400 feet long and 75 feet in the beam. She was heavily constructed with Krupp armor and carried the following armament: Four 12-inch guns, 12 six-inch guns, 16 three-inch guns and six three-pounders. In addition she carried two machine guns and four 12-inch torpedo tubes. The loss of the Bulwark in a harbor of England caused much depression* Although the official announcement gave no indication of a German submarine attack, it is known submarines are active all along the southern coast of England. British Vessels Sunk. German submarines nave sunk two more British steamships and a German mine has sent to the bottom a British naval collier, according to admission of the British admiralty. The submarine victims were the merchantmen Malachite and Prlmo. They were destroyed In the English channel. Coming on the heels of the appalling disaster which befell the British battleship Bulwark, when it was blown up with the loss of more than 750 officers and men, these new evidences of hostile naval menace at the very gates of London has served to spread con* aternation over England.

TELL8 OF RU881AN VICTORY, By Granville Forteecue. (Formerly Military Aid to President Roosevelt) Petrograd, Nov. 27.—Disaster once more has overtaken the Germans in Poland. Their second army of invar sion is smashed. Not only has their flank been cuj, but the Russians are, well in the rear of the German army. The battle of Kolusskl Is the crowning victory of the campaign in Poland. What is left of the German army is still being pursued, surrounded by a wall of Russians and in terror of the steel of the Cossacks. The enemy is fighting with the* desperation of despair to regain his own frontier. When the final cost is counted, Kolusskl will be found a greater blow to German hopes than either Lemberg or the San. Cossscks Hound Germans^ The battle of Koluszki is still raging. Straggling Prussian regiments are fighting their way out of swamps and over foothills. Cossacks surround -them like wolves. The weather has turned extremely cold. The Germans are burdened with wounded. The feature of the battle was a charge of Cossacks, like hounds in leash. During the earlier part of tbe campaign they often dashed against the decimating fire of unshaken infantry; at Koluszki they charged like stampeded cattle. Over the Infantry they went, up to the mounts of the heavy guns, cutting down the gunners. Some rode off with these prises, while the rest continued the' pursuit These fierce riders were satisfying the grudge against a certain German general who is said to have made it a rule to hang every Cossack. Fighting In Flanders. London, Nov. 26.—The German guns in Belgium have been silenced, for the moment at least Important gains were made by the allies in the Flanders theater yesterday. So important were they to the allies' new offensive movement to destroy the invading army or drive It from Belgium that the French war office deemed It best, in its official announcement, of this afternoon, to withhold, the location of their advances. The official statement simply stated that "in the north the cannonading diminished in intensity and no 'entry attack was directed against tea, which made slight advances at certain points."

A new theory to explain the tails of comets Is advanced by the French physicist, M. Houllevigue, in the Revue Scientlfioue. It is natural to suppose, he says, that the incandescent nucleus of a comet Is throwing out electrons into the extremely rarefied atmosphere that surrounds it The observations of George EUety Hale, the American astronomer, prove that the sun behaves like a negatively electrified body. Therefore he repels electrons, which are negatively electrified bodies. These particles so repelled would be driven to that side of the comet which Is farthest from the sun, and by contact with the molecules of the gaseous and rarefied atmosphere would produce just the luminous appearance that we can a comet's tall. ' Every cqmet's tail always extends away from the sun. Arrhenlus, the Swedish astronomer, believed that the particles of the tall were repelled by the light of the sun.

TERS KING COTTON'S | 1 FLEECY 8TAPLE MU8T PAY RAN- 80M INTO THE C0FFER8 OF WAR. Nation Ringa With Cries of Stricken Industry. By Peter Radford Lecturer National Farmers' Union. King Cotton has suffered more from the European war than any other agricultural product on the American continent. The shells of the belligerents have bursted over his throne, frightening his subjects and shattering his markets, and, panic-stricken, the nation cries out "God save the king!" People from every walk of life have contributed their mite toward rescue work. Society has danced before the king; milady has decreed that the family wardrobe shall contain" only cotton goods; the press has plead with the public to "buy a bale"; bankers have been formulating holding plans; congress and legislative bodies have deliberated over relief measures; statesmen and writers have grown eloquent expounding the inalienable rights of "His Majesty" and presenting schemes for preserving the financial integrity of the stricken staple, but the sword of Europe has proved mightier than the pen of America in fixing value upon this product of t,he sunny south. Prices have been bayoneted, values riddled and markets decimated by the battling hosts of the eastern hemisphere until the American farmer has suffered a war loss of $400,000,000, and a bale of cotton brave enough to enter a European port must pay a ransom of half its value or go to prison until'the war is over. Hope of the Future Lies in Co-opera- Won. The Farmers' Union, through the columns of the press, wants to thank the American people for the friendship, sympathy and assistance given the cotton farmers in the hour of distress and to direct attention to cooperative methods necessary to permanently assist the marketing of all farm products. The present emergency presents as grave a situation as ever confronted the American farmer and from the viewpoint of the producer, would seem to Justify extraordinary relief measures, even to the point of bending the constitution and straining business rules in order to lift a portion of the burden off the backs of the farmer, for unless something is done to check the In-vaslon of the war forces upon the cotton fields, the pathway of the European pestilence on this continent will be strewn with mortgaged homes and-famine and poverty will stalk over the southland, filling the highways of industry with refugees and the bankruptcy court with prisoners. All calamities teach us lessons and the present crisis serves to illuminate the frailties of our marketing methods and the weakness of our credit system, and out of the financial anguish and travail of the cotton farmer will come a volume of discussion and a mass of suggestions and finally a solution of this, the biggest problem In the economic life of America, if, indeed, we have not already laid the foundation for at least temporary relief. More Pharaohs Needed In Agriculture. Farm products have no credit and perhaps can never have on a permanent and satisfactory basis unless WJ build warehouses, cold storage plants, elevators, etc., for without storage and credit facilities, the south is compelled to dump Jts crop on the market at harvest time. The Farmers' Unions in the cotton producing states have for the past ten years persistently advocated the construction of storage facilities. We have built during this period 2,000 warehouses with a capacity of approximately 4,000,000 bales and looking backward the results would seem encouraging, but looking forward, we are able to house less than one-third of the crop and warehouses without a credit system lose 90 per cent of their usefulness. The problem Is a gigantic one—too great for the farmer to solve unaided. He must have the assistance of the banker, the merchant and the government In production we have reached the high water mark of perfection in the world's history, but our marketing methods are most primitive. In the dawn of history we find agriculture plowing with a forked stick but with a system of warehouses under governmental supervision that made the Egyptians the marvel or\ civilization, for who has not admired the vision oi Joseph and applauded the wisdom or Pharaoh for storing the surplus until demanded by the consumer, but in this age we have too many Josephs who dream and not enough Pharaohs who build.

Wake Dr. Miles' LaxaUv* Tuttsts Thty will h«lf ftev Congress has levied a war tax of $103,000,000 to offset a similar amount of loss on import revenue due to the European disturbances and of this amount beer is the heaviest contributor, having been assessed approximately $50,000,000; a stamp tax on negotiable instruments, it is estimated, will yield $31,000,000; a tax on the capital stock of banks of $4,300,000 and a tax on tobacco, perfumes, theater tickets, etc.. makes the remainder. Congress has decreed that the brewer, the banker and the investor mdst shoulder the musket and march to the front; that milady who would add to her beauty must first tip Uncle Sam, and a dollar that seeks pleasure must first salute the flag; that Pleasure and Profit—the . twin heroes of many wars—shall fight the nation's battles and by an ingeniously arranged schedule of taxation congress has shifted the war budget from the shoulders of Necessity to those of Choice and Gain, touching in its various ramifications almost every line of business. All hail the dollar that bleeds for Its country; that bares Its breast to the fortunes of war and risks its life to preserve the stability and integrity of the nation's credit. The market place has always been a favorite stand for war revenue collectors. The trader Is a great financial patriot. His dollar is the first to rally around the star-spangled banner and the last to hear the coo of the dove of freace. He is called upon to buy cannon; to feed and clothe the boys in blue and each month cheer their hearts with the coin of the realm. Men can neither be free nor brave without food and ammunition, and money is as important a factor in war as blood. Many monuments have been erected in honor of heroes Rlain in battles, poems have been written eulogizing their noble deeds and the nation honors its soldiers while they live and places a monument upon their graves when they die, but very little has been said of the dollar that bears the burdens of war. Honor to the Dollar that Bear* the Burdens of War, All honor to the dollar that answers the call to arms and, when the battle is over, bandages the wounds of stricken soldiers, lays a wreath upon the graves of fallen heroes and cares for the widows and orphans. All honor to the. Industries that bend their backs under the burdens of war; lift the weight from the shoulders of the poor and build a bulwark around the nation's credit. All honor to those who contribute to the necessities and administer to the comforts of the boys who are marching; cool the fever of afflicted soldiers and kneel with the cross beside dying heroes. A dollar may fight Its competitor in business, industries may struggle for supremacy in trade and occupations may view each other with envy or suspicion, but when the bugle calls they bury strife and rally around the flag, companions and friends, mess mates and chums, all fighting for one flag, one cause and one country. The luxuries in life have always been the great burden-bearers In government. We will mention a few of them giving the annual contributions to the nation's treasury: Liquor,$250,- 000,000; tobacco, $103,000,000; sugar, $54,000,000; silks, $15,500,000; diamonds, $3,837,000; millinery, $2,479,- 000; furs, $2,024,000 and automobiles, $870,000. We collect $665,000,000 of internal and custom revenue annually and $450,000,000 of this amount classifies as luxuries, and to this amount we should add the $100,000,000 war tax now levied. The war tax is Immediately effective. Tramp! .Tramp!

The economic distribution of farm products is today the world's greatest problem and the war, while it has brought its hardships, has clearly emphasised the importance of distribution as a factor in American agriculture and promises to give the farmers the co-operation of the government and the business men the solution of their marketing problem. This result will, in a measure, compensate us for our war losses, for the business interests and government have been in the main assisting almost exclusively on the production side of agriculture. While the department of agriculture has been dumping tons of literature on the farmer telling him how to produce, the farmer has been dumping tons of products in the nations garbage can for want of a market. The World Will Never Starve. At no time since Adam and Eve were driven from the Garden of Eden have the inhabitants of this world suffered from lack of production, but some people have gone hungry from the day of creation to this good hour for the lack of proper distribution. Slight variations in production have forced a change in diet and one locality has felt the pinch of want, while another surfeited, but the world as a whole has ever been a land of plenty. We now have less than one-tenth of the tillable land of the earth's surface under cultivation, and we not only have this surplus area to draw on but it is safe to estimate that in case of dire necessity one-half the earth's population could at the present time knock their living out of the trees of the foreBt, gather it from wild vines and draw it from streams. No one should become3 alarmed; the world will never starve. The consumer haa always feared that the producer would not supply him and his fright has found expression on the statute books of our states and nations and the farmer has been urged to produce recklessly and without reference to a market, and regardless of the demands of the consumer. Back to the Soil. The city people have been urging each other to move back to the farm, but very few of them have moved. We welcome our city cousins back to the soil and this earth's surface contains 16,092,160,000 idle acres of tillable land where they can make a living by tickling the earth with a forked stick, but we do not need them so far as increasing production is concerned; we now have all the producers we can use. The city man has very erroneous ideas of agricultural conditions. The commonly accepted theory that we are short on production is all wrong. Our annual Increase in production far exceeds that of our increase in population. The World as a Farm. Taking the world as one big farm, we find two billion acres of land in cultivation. Of this amount there is approximately 750,000,000 acres on the western and 1,260,000.000 acres on the eastern hemisphere, in. cultivation. This estimate, of course, does not in* elude grazing lands, forests, etc., where large quantities of meat are produced. The world's annual crop approximates fifteen billion bushels of cereals, thirteen billion pounds of fibre and sixty-five million tons of meat. The average annual world crop for the past five years, compared with the previous five years, is as follows: Past Half Previous Half Crops— Decade. Decade, i Corn (Bu.) 3,934,174,000 3,403,655,000 Wheat(Bu.) 3,522,769,000 Oats (Bu.) 4,120,017,000 Cotton (Bales) 19,863,800 The world shows an crease in cereal production of 13 per cent during the past decade, compared with the previous five years, while the world's population shows an increase of only three per cent. The gain in production far exceeds that of our increase in population, and it la safe to estimate that the farmer can easily increase production 25 per WA\VA\WA'JVA>&A\WA^St-lV*i\W/f\WA' f f^r^WA\^nsWAWA\WA^W H 3,257,526,000 3.508,315,000 17,541,200 average Ini PETTYSVILLE STORE mmammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmum On Saturday, December 5th Will Pay 32 cents Pep Pound For Buffer and 3 2 c P e r Dozen For One-half in Ca^h and Balance in Trade H.

WILL MAINTAIN QUARANTINE Dr. Halladay Says That Only Town ah (pa Where Epedemic Waa Severest Will Be Kept Under The Ban. Bast Lansing.—The last of the cattle, sheep and hogs smitten by the hoof and mouth disease, which a few weeks ago swept over the state, have been slaughtered and buried, according to Dr. H. H. Halladay, president of the state livestock and sanitary commission. This announcement from Dr. Halladay indicates that the big end of the fight against the epidemic Is over with, but during the coming three or four months, unless new outbreaks should occur, the campaign will be confined simply to maintaining the quarantine. It probably will require this much time for the eradication of the hoof and mouth germs. The quarantine will but little effect the state's meat supply, for an order has already been issued, permitting the sale of Michigan cattle in Detroit Only those township in which the epidemic was severest will be kept under the ban. In no case during the battle waged to check the spread of the epidemic was any attempt made to cure the sick animals. Every one of those afflicted with the disease was killed, despite the fact that most of the animals could have been saved. The slaughter method of wiping out the epidemic waa employed because of the fact that while one animal was being cured the disease would have spread to others. NEXT CONFERENCE AT KAZO Big Meeting of Boys at Ann Arbor Closed with Address of Mr. Bryan. Ann Arbor.—Kalamazoo will enter* tain the 1916 Y. M. C.

DUTCH WANT NO HELP IN CARING FOR REFUGEES Holland Declines Aid Offered Unofficially By American Charity GATHERIN6 UNFORTUNATE ONES IN SPECIAL CAMPS Huge Expense of Supporting Penniless Belgians and Soldiers Wilt he Paid Eventually by Belgian Government. The Hague, via London—The Dutch government has categorically declined all offers of financial aid for Belgian refugees In Holland, which were recently unofficially, offered by an American charity. While deeply appreciative of the generous proposal, the government says it feels that it would be incompatible with the country's honor to tallow another nation or individual association to assist in this mercy work, and that Holland desires to provide herself for all those different neighbors who are afflicted by the war. Of the 1,000,000 Belgian refugees who fled into Holland at the beginning of the war. 300,000 penniless ones remain. One-half of these are living In the two southern provinces of Brabant and Zeeland. The remainder are divided among 800 communities. Winter Is approaching and these refugees are now being gathered together in specially constructed camps situated in dunes of heath and at other healthy spots. For this purpose, a special budget of about $1,- 600,000 has been passed to cover the expenses until January. After that a further credit of $3,000,000 will be given. The gravest task in store for the authorities 4s the rounding up and concentrating "of former inmates of Belgian prisoners, who were liberated wholesale by the Belgian authorities before the arrival of the Germans and now are considered a public menace. In addition to the refugees, there are 45,000 Belgian soldiers who crossed the border Into Holland and were interned. These men are also being supported In special camps. The expense for the maintenance eventually will be paid by the Belgian government, according to International law. President Visits Firing Line. Verdun, via Paris—President Poincare, with Premier Vivian! and the speakers of the senate and chamber of deputies, made a visit Saturday to the troops along the firing line in the Argonne.

Among the patients in this hospital who are seriously wounded is Deputy Andre Maginot NEW ASPIRANT FOR OFFICE Connies Has Proclaimed Himself President of Mexico. Washington—A new aspirant for presidential honors in Mexico waa added to the list Sunday with the receipt here of advices that General Pablo Gonzales, one of Carranza's divisional chiefs, has proclaimed himself provisional president of Mexico and has named a cabinet. This report, received officially, comes from Queretaro, where General Gutierres, the AgueecaUentee, convention's choice for president* has established himself. According to this information, General Gonaa* les is at Pachuca with his forces, said to number about 8,000 man. Pachuca is north of Mexico City, about 50 miles distant GoaseJes recently withdrew from Queretaro in the face of the advance of Villa and his troops, and his whereabouts tor some time has been more or less of a mystery. The mystery is now solved, i t la believed* with the announcement that he has proclaimed himself provisional president While it is doubted if he" win attempt to take Mexico City at present it is admitted that General Gonsalea with his present fores? can make himself a most disturbing factor in the situation and perhaps frustrate an the plans of either Villa, Zapata, or Carran**, so Jong as he holds bis present strong posittoa. According to other state depart* meat advioea, negotiations are under way between the convention leaders and Zapata for a Joint entry into Mexico City. / MARKET WOTATIONS Live Stock, Grain end General Farm Produce.

With the European wheat field* desolated, and the farming population more than decimated, there will be for a number of years a demand for food products that has not been ex* perienced in the memory of the present generation. B very one regrets the horrible, war that has Drought thi* about Its effects are felt not only in Europe, but in every' part of the American continent Many lines of business have been hurt but only temporarily it is hoped. Financial stringency is being talked of. There. Is a way of overcoming these things; and Western Canada offers the solution in its immense agricultural area, when the possibility of retrieving losses, making assured gains, and at the same time becoming a factor in providing the world with the one great requisite—wheat—is so pronounced that it cannot be overlooked. There are several ways in which excellent farming lands can be secured in the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta, and also British Columbia. j In the first place the offer of the Dominion Government of 160 acres of land free to the settler Is something not given by any other country. Conditions of settlement are easy. Live upon the land six months in each year, for a perio^ of three years, cultivate about thirty acres, and erect a habitable house. Instead of cultivation, the keeping of a certain number of head of cattle will carry with it the same value. * Many of these homesteads may be had in the open prairie area, where every acre can be put under cultivation, but to the man with limited means, in the park area, lying north of the central portion of three of the provinces named, the/e is afforded the best chance. In this park country are beautiful groves of poplar and willow, small lakes and streams, and sufficient open area to enable one to go into immediate cultivation for crops of wheat oats, barley and flax, any one of which does wonderfully well, giving prolific yields. In due time when more land is required for cultivation, these groves may be cut down at small cost In the meantime, however, they have been valuable in providing fuel and shelter for cattle, which thrive wonderfully on the wild grasses that grow in abundance. Another plan is to purchase from some of the railway companies who hold large tracts^or from some responsible land company. The prices asked are exceedingly low and the terms easy. Whether one may decide to locate in the open prairie area or in the park country the land will be found to be of the same general texture, a rich black or chocolate colored loam on a clay subsoil. r AgalzLattention is drawn to the fact o'f the great opportunities for farming that are offered in Western Canada. Already a number of holders of tracts of land there, who are residents of the United States—business men, merchants, lawyers, bankers—men of foresight and keen knowledge of business, have decided to cultivate the lands they have been holding for speculation and wait no longer for a buyer to turn up. They are acting wisely. Canadian laws are aa fair and just as can be found in the civilised world. Military service is not compulsory, nor la there one ounce of coercion used. Anything that is given to Great Britain whether in money or men is entirely voluntary. There is no drafting nor conscription of any kind. Already over sixty 'thousand of the young men of Canada have volunteered for service, and thirty-five thousand have gone forward, many of these having left their farms in their love for Great Britain and a desire to fight for their country. As a consequence, many farms may be left untilled. Therefore Canada Invites others to come in and take their places. This then is the opportunity for the American who wishes to better hie own condition.—Advertisement • * - • ! -•v.jjrv( :v. .-* - • • • * ' „:/i.\ X~- "The Red Cross Girleena/' That the Red Cross nurses are an and more than has been claimed for them when it comes to genuine pluck Is borne out by an Irish soldier, Sergt T.

' * ^ "' Of M Y FIRST EXPERIENCE IN THE MAIL ORDER BU8INE38. It was as a boy, long-legged, lanky and just into my teens that 1 made my application for a "job" with one of the merchandise concerns that was -making an effort to secure trade ;from the people in the towns and country adjacent to one of our big western cities. I had arrived In the city, having quit any Job in a smaller metropolis many ^miles away after serving an arduous •term as office boy and all-around "kid" fin a small store. My self-confidence was small and my diffidence abnormal I suppose I stood outside the store entrance for fully an hour before I mustered up courage enough to go in. "I want to see the DOBS," was my .statement to a rather flashy appearing man who asked me what I wanted. "Whatforr ul want a Job." He sized me up quizzically and then /pointed to a door leading into a dingy -little office in the corner. There was a long counter, behind which a sleepylooking bookkeeper was engaged in adding up figures and within the office X could see a tall, angular man readting letters. Timidly I knocked at the •door. ''Gome in," said the angular man, in a deep, bass voice. Tremblingly I approached him. He looked at me with a keen glance and asked me what I wanted. "I want a Job." "What can you dd? "Work around a store." Then followed a series of questions, which I answered freely as I became more at ease. "I need a good, hard-working boy." He said, "one that Is honest and reliable. Have you any references?" "No, sir." I explained that I had l>een refused a reference from my last •employer because he did not wish me to quit and he had taken this petty Tevehge. Then he asked me a lot more questions about my work, etc., ant finally he said: "A reference doesn't amount to anything, anyhow. Men will give a reference to get rid of a fellow, lots of times. I've done it myself. You show me that you are all right, and we'll have no bother about the reference. I'll give you a Job. Where are your things?" "What things?" "Why, your trunk or your valise or your bundle." It was with humiliation that I confessed that I did not have anything •except the clothes 1 had on. I did not confess to the possession of a pair of neatly darned socks, which X had in one Jacket pocket As for linen, why, I had the shirt I was wearing and my celluloid collar had been, no tar, all sufficient, as I could launder it In a minute with a basin of water. He laughed and said. "All right sonny; start right in and see that yon dont take away from my store any more than you fetched into it" I barely existed on the three dollars a week he paid me, but managed to make shift by sleeping on a cot in the Tear of the store. T o n can go out in the store and straighten up stock," he said, "and -fix everything up in good sty4a^ Every -morning yon will take the broom and eweep out and if you find anything on the floor, bring it to me.

So I swept out the store mornings, tied up bundles and waited on customers during the day and at night X crawled under the counter, too tired to dream, and slept amidst the odors from the barreled and boxed groceries. He showed me bow to manipulate the old-fashioned scales so that I could cheat an old woman out of a pound or two of sugar or flour. Our pint quart and gallon measures bad false bottoms. Our peck and bushel measures were fixed for false measure, and then) was ample material for adulteration of all commodities. He instructed me in their use, and one day he trounced me without mercy because he observed that I did not sufficiently adulterate the purchase of an old Irishwoman who* did my other' shirt up tfor I now had two) and who mended my socks for a few pennies a week. "You'll never learn the business," he said, rather sadly, "unless you watch every chance to make a penny. It's the pennies that count In this business." "Get their money/' he used to say with great unction, "get all you can out of them for as little as you can give. If they come back and holler it is plenty of time enough to make it right. Then, of course, it was a mistake, but be careful and don't give too much, even then." He made It a point to wait on little children who came into the store, and I realize now that his purpose was to short-change them out of a few pennies. It came about that I filled all the orders sent in by mail or that were left to be filled for. farmers who brought in an order made out by the wife. Many and many a wigging was Shad by innocent farmers who were blamed by their wives for "forgetting" to order certain articles. Of course the things were never put into the package, although paid for. I knew it was wrong. I knew I was cheating these customers, but here was this old sinner who went to church regularly and was a deacon in the leading house of worship. His argument when I made a weak objection to this method was that he was in business to make money and that the thefts were so small that nobody missed the money. Besides, he was my "boss," and he was responsible. That Is what he told me in so many words. One day I told him I was going to quit Here I was a half-starved and wholly overworked boy, ignorant of the world and without a penny saved, and absolutely dependent upon my daily wage for food, but desiring strongly to escape from this old scoundrel. When I told him I wanted to quit he dragged me into the office and beat me with a strap. After that 1 planned. I planned to murder him. I planned to burn down the store. I planned to do anything and everything that might offer me a chance to get away from the hateful place. And one day the chance came. Back behind the counter one after* noon I found a pocketbook. It belonged to him. I knew it as I knew my JWA rift* hanl for jt waj &8B this selfsame pdeketbook thai he fate me grudgingly every Saturday night so slowly and grouchlly (hat X feared each time that he would change his mind and withhold H, my three dollars. In the pocketbook were bills to the amount of $80. v Fear assailed me at this discovery, but conscience never spoke. I burled it in the prune barrel and continued my work. He searched for It everywhere. He gave me a brutal questioning and tortured me by twisting my arm until I screamed with pain, tint wild horses would not have dragged my secret away. In the pocketbook were some notes and other papers Identifying it I took out the currency and hid it again in the prune barrel after a few days. Then, one night I slipped out and left the pocketbook, with the papers in it on the wooden sidewalk, because he had made his loss known by word of mouth and had announced that he would give $5 for Its return. The next day the pocketbook was brought into the store by a man who said he had found it and who demanded the reward. The boss opened i t found that the MO was missing and accused the finder of heing a thiet He refused to pay any reward. They fought all over the store. The boss was soundly trounced, and X, pitiful object of humanity, a scrawny, haJf-starvefi hoy and the author of his misfortune, sneaked behind the counter and choked my month with a shoddy coat sleeve fe> hasp from shrieking with unholy Joy.

EDLINQ. "Yea." said the station agent, "1 did have an adventure with Geronimo's warriors the summer they broke loose from their reservation, which, perhaps, is worth telling about "The previous winter I had been employed away up north in Canada, within sight of the glaciers glinting on the Banff mountains, and I got the iced air so incorporated in my system that I felt like a cold-storage plant. "As soon as the snow blockade was raised in the spring I turned southward. I was not particular where I went so long as it was near the tropics. I accepted a place in southern Arizona, a stand which can give Sahara hints on the tropic business. "It's a great place for acquiring a thirst or even adding to one already acquired. I was sitting in the shade of the water tank one day, the contents of which 1 had been absorbing at brief intervals. I wondered if I would ever have enough animation In me to go north again. "I found it too much work to think with the expanding mercury almost lifting the glass tube of the thermometer out of its socket and so I fell into a dose. How long I nodded I do not know, but a swarm of Insects settling on me as If I were made of fly-paper awoke me. "As I stirred, my little dog also came out of his usual comatose condition, for the beat had made us both excessively weary, and dragging himself over to a post he leaned against it for support and barked feebly. I heard a noise behind the house. Before 1 could get up to Investigate, I found the cause standing before me in the shape of several painted Indians. "I was familiar with the sight of Indians, but I could see that this bunch were not friendly visitors, although they grinned at me. Their grin said plainly, 'You are ours.' " 'How do you do?' 1 asked, as soon as I could swallow a sudden inflammation in my throat " 'How do?' one of them grunted in reply. 'Whisk! Bottle whisk! Mouth dry; want drink!' " 'Whisky? Certainly/ and I brought out a quart "bottle which I kept for snake bites. Immediately it was passing from mouth to mouth; and it was all gone when a second crowd of painted faces galloped up alongside. There was a full score more of them and I felt awfully lonesome. "The empty bottle was circulated among the last arrivals; each rider gravely taking a smell. 'More, bring more whisky!' some of them shouted, and when I explained that I had no more, they looked crushed. The first six who had merged the contents appeared happy over the discomfiture of their comrades, and one of them pointed to the big, dripping water-tank and said, 'plenty water, take heap, all you want' "This did not seem to comfort them any, and I saw that they reproached me for being a temperance man. I knew that I would have to suffer for their loss, and the sight of some scalps dangling from their pelts did m r*e*faw m* "After some conrusion in rummaging through the place I was put alongside my desk. There was a brief confab in Apache between the leaders, one of whom was Geronimo himself, and then one. of them, dresed like a white man, sat down and wrote a message on one of my blanks. Turning to me when it was finished he said in good English: M took here, young fellow, we want you to send this dispatch to the captain at Fort Bowie, and, mind you, no monkeying on the wire. Send Just that no more'and no less. Obey us and your life will be spared; but if you send any warning beside this, we will comb your hair for you. I picked up soma telegraphy at the Indian school/ "And with that he laid the blank before me and at the same time pointed a pistol toward my head. "There was nothing for me to do but obey and I read the telegram. 0 T e Captain —, Fort Bowls: "Geronimo, with a targe fores, has fust pessiHl south on the way to surprise the mining settlement ia Crystal Gulch. Some ranchmen brought me the news, and they ssk you for God's sake order your troops there to the rescue at once. Please aft- * "AGENT." "1 had direct wire connection with the fort and I soon Talsed the operator there and began transmitting the dispatch, wondering, as I did so, what its object was. I concluded that it was to put the troops on a false chase, and I privately resolved to notify the fort tf I could. "Was the y u m Indian really an operator and could he detect me if I should add a warning to the message? He was now standing over me aad I looked up at htm. His eyes met mine as t did so, and a smile yen s|| r|mU Tom are at that word} and he pointed to the exact place where I had paused in my sending. Geronimo uttered an approving grunt "I resumed my wiring and was nearly done, when the fort operator broke me, having missed a word. I repeated it and was going ahead with the close when the Indian operator Interrupted me with an oath: '"You are sending wrong; you are posting the fort!' " 'No, I am not/ I answered him. "'You lie! What did you say Just then?' And he shoved his gun under my nose. " The operator at the fort asked me to repeat that word and 1 did so; that is alL Didn't you hear itr "He looked hard at me for a few seconds, but as I had spoken the truth I did not flinch and returned the gaze quite steadily.7 " 'Oh, 1 was only trying to frighten you,' he said with a laugh. 'Where are you BOW?* '"Here/ I said, pointing to the place where I had left off, with the key open. '"That's right! Finish it!' said be; and I did so, getting O. K. from the fort "Within ten minutes thereafter the fort called me. The reply was abort expressing thanks for the information and saying that the troops would leave for Crystal Gulch at once. Whea I had O. K/d it the fort man asked me for more information regarding the Indians. "The Indian ordered me to write down every word, and he would not permit me to answer it until he had written the reply. Then he would follow the copy closely with his eyes, and at the same time listen intently to my sending. "When the wiring was onded, the fellow explained the business to the others, who grunted their approval aad Immediately all went out of doors except my operator friend, their places being taken by three others. "1 heard the gang outside ride off, but in which direction they went I was unable to tell as ray guard would not allow me to look out. They were not sociable fellows, speaking seldom to each other, and puffing in silence on their pipes like factory chimneys. "What were they keeping me tor? I wondered. Had they some other use for me that they did not kill me at once? "Three long oppressive hours passed thus, the figures of the Indians dimly visible through the dense tobacco smoke enveloping us. Then they arose and, seizing me, bound me to my chair and left the room. "I heard the clatter of their horses' feet and I realised with surprise and great relief that they had gone and I was yet alive. Waiting a few minutes to make sure they would not return, I wriggled loose from my bonds, which had been carelessly tied, and cautiously peeped out of the window. A half mile to the north I could see the four Indians riding away. "They remained in sight for ten minutes more at least, when they dropped from view down in a valley. I was glad I had seen the direction of their going, so that I could report it to the fort "For wnile the troops were speeding south to Crystal Gulch, the Indians were riding north and very likely woull attack the ranches along Chico creek, which were not far above the fort and could not be attacked with immunity while the troops were there. ~ I was at the telegraph key in an tlltant and called the fort ftrionj'-, The operaiSF there replied in a iew minutes and I was not long in explaining what had happened. The information astonished him. Excusing himself he ran and informed the commander. "At length he returned and told me that the captain had sent only a little more than half of the company stationed there to Crystal Gulch and had retained the remainder, who would start directly for Chico creek, "The next day some soldiers arrived by train and stopped at my station to guard the railroad property until all danger had passed. I learned from them-the conclusion of the affair and the narration surprised me. Geronimo's telegram had told the truth! "The four fellows who ha/, guarded nn had purposely gone north so long as they were within sight Of my station, and my life was spared so that I could observe them and report it to the fort "The main 'jody of Indians had gone southward three hours before, but had concealed themselves on the way so as to avoid the returning soldiers, whom they expected to be recalled, and then attacked Crystal Gulch early in the evening. "They would have succeeded bad not who fort commander decided to take no chances. Tor/ as he had remarked to his sergeant at the tide of my warning, the devil alone knows where his imps will turn up; and half a company of my hoys can handle a whole company of Apaches!' "So he did not send for the return of his men from Crystal Gulch. When Geronimo and his men dashed into what they supposed a defenseless set- Uement they met a volley that left half the ponies riderless and sent the) root of the head scattering to the few wines of heaven." SHED THE BEST WASHROOM Its Advantages Are Many, Where 8uch mn Apartment Is at the Command of Housewife. In case a woodBbed is available, with an old stove that can be used there, these should be pressed into service for washing during the winter months. The woodshed as a washroom would necessitate a washday which 1B mild and sunshiny, but there is usually more than one such day in each week; and when the health of the family is at stake, the washing can well be done on some other day than Monday. At best, the woodshed would be cold, hence the worker would need a piece of old carpet or linoleum and warm bricks or a soapstone to protect her feet while standing at the tubs. A small bench on rollers, made the same height as the wash bench, will enable the housewife to wove the filled tubs about without any lifting. Such preparations on the day previous are necessary in order to shorten the processes on washday and hasten the drying of clotheB, for the earlier in the day that some of the clothes can be put on the line, the less need there will be for the remainder to lie wet in the house or to be dried there. In case a shed is too cold for use in all processes of washing, it should be used for those which send off much steam, such as running clothes through the washing machine. Wringer, wash bench, boiler, basket and hamper should be kept in this shed rather than carried from the cellar and back, or rather than keep doors open while carrying them from the smokehouse to washroom, as is sometimes done. • USING THE SEWING MACHINE One Who Does Much Sawing Should See That It Is Always In Perfect Condition. When much machine work has to be done, filling the shuttle ic a constant annoyance. This can be partly obviated by threading the shuttle with finer cotton than that used on the needle. The sewing will be quite as strong, and the shuttle will not need refilling half BO cften as it would If threaded with the same number of cotton as the needle, because the spool will hold a great deal more of the finer cotton. If you want your sewing machine to do satisfactory work, remember that it needs to be kept clean. After every ten hours' work it needs oil, but all surplus oil must be carefully wiped off afterwards* Always work It Bteadily, and never start or stop with ar Jerk. One dressmaker, whose machines are noted amongst her sewing girls for their smooth and easy running, oils them once In every three times with paraffin instead of the usual oil. Of course she is careful that the machines are kept scrupulously clean. A dirty machine can't be expected to do good work. When your machine is not in use, see that the wheels are left «o that the oil holes are at the top of the hub. This will saVe clearing away the superfluous oil, which trickles out and causes the hub to catch the dust Before you begin to sew take an odd piece on material and stitch backwards and forwards before commeuo- »• crJ^r? wori. :: ttiy oil ratt tip* With the nee^S, ~ ~ freonentW happen/ after oiling or cleaning, it will not spoil your material. Treat a machine as a delicate in* strument and keep It away from draughts and damp. Egflo a la Shelburne.
