In all probability some sort of a stone-cutter's shed would be found nearby. It would provide shelter from the fine rain that was falling and from the chill night air. He remembered that O'Dowd, in discussing the erection of Green Fancy the night before, had said that the stone came from a pit two- miles away, where a fine quality of granite had been found. Two miles, according to Barnes* quick calculations, would bring the pit close to the northers boundary of the Curtis property and almost directly on a line with the point where he and Sprouse entered the meadow at the beginning of their advance upon Green Fancy. That being the case, they were now quite close to the stake and rider fence separating the Curtis land from that of the farmer on the north. "Good,' he said, more to himself than to her.

I was to deliver them to one of their rightful owners, Mr. Barnes—a loyal prince of the blood.** "But why here?** he insisted. "He was to take them into Canada, and thence, in good time, to the palace of his an cantors." "I am to understand, then, that not only you but the committee you speak of, fell Into a carefully prepared trap. The treachery, therefore, had its inception In the loyal nest You were betrayed by a friend." "I am sure of It," she said bitterly. "If t&is man Sprouse does not succeed in restoring the—oh, I believe 1 shall kill myself, Mr. Barnes." The wall of anguish In her voice went straight to his heart.

The first faint signs of day were struggling out of the night when they stole across the road above Hart's Tavern and made their way through the stable yard to the rear of the house. His one thought was to get her safely inside the Tavern. The door was locked. He delivered a series of resounding kicks upon its stout face. Revolver in hand, he faced about and waited for the assault of the men who, he was sure, would come plunging around the corner of the building In response to the racket But there was no attack. At last there were sounds from within. A key grated In the lock and a bolt was shot The door flew open. Mr. Clarence Dilllagford appeared In the opening, partially dressed, his hair sadly tumbled, his eyes blinking in the light of the lantern he held aloft "Well, what the—" Then bis gaze allgBteoron the lady. -"For the love of—'* began the embarrassed Dilllngford.

Through the closed door she asked what on earth was the matter. "I have a friend here—a lady. Will you dress as quickly as possible and take her In with you for a little while?" There was no immediate response from the inside. Then Miss Thackeray observed, quite coldly: "I think I'd like to hear the lady's voice, if you don't mind.

The terms comprise the whole treaty which Austria is asked to sign, including the reparation, financial, military and certain other minor clauses, which were not ready ^pr presentation when the official ceremony took place. In an accompanying memorandum the Austrians are granted 15 days in which to make their final observations, although they have submitted a large number of notes on the terms submitted previously to them. In addition to the published summary of the terms of June 2, the new clauses provide for reparation arrangements similar to those in the treaty with Germany, including the establishment of an Austrian sub-section of the reparations commission, the payment of a. reasonable sum in cash, the issuing of bonds and the delivery of livestock and certain historical and art documents.

There is only one way tp cure catarrhal deafness, and that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirly closed:deafneas is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube/restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an inflamed condition of, the> mucous surfaces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system.

The drainage should have a fall of not leas than one inch to 100 feet If possible and greater fall than this Is very desirable. Where little fall ia obtained, particular care must be taken to secure a proper grade. The drainage ditch should be started at the oatalso as a demonstration to show each community how proper methods of planting, cultivation, fertilizing and other factors Increase the yield. The only requirements for entrance to the contest are that the contestant join the corn-growers' association and agree to keep« record of the cost of production of the crop on one of his fields from which the five-acre plot Is later selected.

(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Good judgment and intelligent observation on the part of the feeder are necessary in the application of feeding standards, aa the calculation of economical rations is not merely a matter of applied mathematics. The local conditions as regards the feeding stuffs which can be grown and purchased economically, and the value of the products, will have much to do in determining how closely the feeder can afford to adhere to the standard. But such standards or formulas, used In connection ~ wTth the feeder's observation of hfs animals and the markets, are very useful, and have served a good purpose in Improving the practice of feeding. It is in their abuse that chief danger lies. Get Rid of Weeds. Get rid of weeds and rubbish abort the premises, / Repairing Harnett.

The trouble started at the Twentyninth street beach, where white and black people are segregated, and soon spread to State street, the main thoroughfare in the heart of the Negro district, which extends about five miles. Shooting started near the beach. There was also some shooting in the vicinity of State street. Although illfeeling between the two raceB of the South Side has extended over a period of months, emphasized by bomb explosions, some shooting and numerous fights, Sunday's riots seem to have had their start in petty quarreling at the beach. Reports that NegroeB wandered across the dividing line to the white section of the beach, and that while bathers aused themselves by throw, ing small stones at the Negroee appeared the most plausible cause. Soon after the fighting started a Negro fieri, pursued by a number of whites.

French Women Are Not Setting a Pace For Milady of America by Wear- Ing Warm Clothes. From velvet Paris next turns her attention to furs, and It Is said that anything with fur on it Is considered up to the minute. Furs and even velvet hats in plenty have been seen on the torrid streets of American cities in summers past, so it Is best not to feel too self-righteous or to make too much comment when Paris chooses to suffer In the cause of fashion. The scarcer the fur the more In vogue it is bound to be, but one does not have to depend on the quantity of fur that is available, for the main point Is that one's clothes be shaggy and the means that are employed are far less important. Earlier In the season fringe of any and all sorts was the concern, but besides the monkey fur and the dripping effects obtained by the use of feathers the novelties In wool materials are much In demand. There is an Inexhaustible variety of knitted novelties in Angora and other materials, anything that can be made to hang and dangle In the manner of a long-haired fur. Many of these are shown In bands, particularly when the texture Is suitable for use as a trimming. Wool Is often combined with silk and metal and Interwoven !n stripes. Following closely the ideas of the designers, plaids, checks and stripes are plentiful and colors are a shade or two more vivid than the materials of late. Stripes are produced by open mesh material alternating with bands of the wool, the mesh being of metal threrfd loosely woven. Any of these knitted novelties provides the way for trimming either a frock or a eoatVithout the aid of fur at somewhat less expense. For sports clothes this form of trimming Is ideal, for the shades afford a da&h of color UjsuaUy associated with such oljitb.es DRESS OF NAVY GEORGETTfc Paris designed this dress of navy georgette with lines of silk fringe and bright blue ribbons with a soft, lacy collar.

Thinly sliced radishes, cucumbers, onions, chopped green peppers and lettuce make most tasty sandwich fillings.

Printed georgettes and silk voiles are being extensively used this summer, and as frocks made of these materials require no trimming they are a boon to the home dressmaker. Sometimes the frocks have founded tions of crepe meteor or llghtwelgh satin or taffetn, but perhaps the most popular arrangement is to use the same material in a plain color as the foundation, skillfully draping the printed fabric over it. This makes a very lightweight frock that is charming for dressy wear for summer. Loosely tied sashes of self material or of satin are frequently used, These are tied either at the back or side. Wide, flowing sleeves, elbow or three-quarter length, are the favorite ones. Organdie dresses are also great favorites this summer, the most popular style showing a plain skirt and bodice finished with a wide surplice bertha edged with tiny frills. The bertha or surplice is drawn around the figure and tied in a smart bow at the back. A dress of this type is, of course, not for the stout figure. £ 2 2 ^ £ as tfTTTng A club sandwich Is enjoyed by the men prepared as follows: Place a slice of tomato with salad dressing on a buttered slice of rye bread, add a layer of cream cheese mixed with chopped nuts, then top with a slice of rye bread.

The baby who is brought up without an Intimate acquaintance with rompers is to be sympathised with. Never was there so comfortable a style, and now that decorative handwork has taken these wee garments under its wing, never has there been a more attractive style for the playtime of the littlest member of the family. Materials for the rompers vary from dimity to wash-silk and include seersucker, cbambray, cotton crepe, linen and unbleached moalin. AH admit the decorative touch. It may be smocking, which In the case of soft materials, Is always lovely. - Th* smocking catr benaed to excellent advantage on the wash silks built on the regulation romper pattern. It gathers in the fullness at the front of the neck and at the bottom ct the sleeves and Is done, of course, in a contrasting color.

The former kimono top uses, besides the blue daisies and outlined bluebird in the "front, rows -of feather-stltchlng to hola" the fullness In the proper places and thus give the kimono cut a semblance of shape. A contrasting belt of white with bunny and outlining In yellow gives the appearance of separate trousers to a bloomered model in tan chambray.

It Is the fabric that for centuries has been found by the Ohlnone to serve ™«"H-4 frel}. their mineral salts, which are needed to make good blood and produce changes In the body cells which ire necessary to keep the body young and supple. A rule which has no exception*, Is to cook vegetables In boiling water and most liquors should be saved for soups or to serve as a sauce with the vegetable; the liquor from beets Is one to except. String beans served with a bitter sauce or in a rich cream sauce ire delicious, but for variety cook them two to three hours with a quarter of a pound of soft pork or a few slices of bacon if preferred. Cook down with the saucepan uncovered until' the moisture is nearly all absorbfe and evaporated, then add a tablespoon' ful or two of vinegar, salt If needed, and a dash of cayenne. Cr9mmt4 Onions and Tops.—Take finger-sized onions, cut, leaving a three-inch stem, cook until tender and serve in white sauce on toast as asparagus Is served. Young beets, tops and all, are very good served as a vegetable. Cook them until tender, chop or cut up In coarse bits and serve with butter and vinegar.

What had become of the man? He could not help feeling, however, that somehow the little agent would suddenly pop out of the chimney in his room, or sneak In through a crack under the door—and laugh at his fears. Shortly before the noon hour, Peter Ames baited the old automobile from Green Fancy in front of the Tavern and out stepped O'Dowd, followed by no less a personage than the pseudo Mr. Loeb. There were a number of traveling bags in the tonneau of the car. Catching sight of Barnes, the Irishman shouted a genial greeting. "The top of the morning to ye. Ton remember Mr. Loeb, dont you? Mr. Curtis' secretary. Mr. Loeb is leaving us for a few days on business. Good morning, Mr. Boneface," he called out to Putnam Jones who approached at that Juncture. "We are sadly In want of gasoline." Barnes caught the look that the Irishman shot at him out of the corner of his eye. "Perhaps you'd better see that the scoundrels p'on't give us short measure, Mr. Loeb," said O'Dowd.. .Loeb hesitated for a second, and then, evidently in obedience to a command from the speaker's eye, moved off to where Peter was opening the intake. them suspects that she came away with you. There is plenty of evidence that she leb him in through her window—" "Ail ready, O'Dowd,'* called Loeb. "Come along, please," "Coming," said the Irishman. "Don't blame yourself, old man. See you later, Barnes. So longl" CHAPTER XVI. The First Wayfarer Visits a Sfcrine, Confesses, and Takes an Oath. How was he to find the courage to Impart the appalling news to her? He was now convinced beyond all doubt that the so-called Sprouae bad made off with the priceless treasure and that only a miracle could bring about its recovery. He realized to what extent he had been shaped into a tool to be used by the master craftsman. He saw through the whole Machiavellian scheme, and he was also now morally certain that Sprouse would have sacrificed him without the slightest hesitation. In the event that anything went wrong with their enterprise, the man would have shot hira dead and earned the gratitude and commendation of his associates! He would have been glorified and not crucified by bis friends. With a heavy heart he mounted the stairs. At the top he paused to deliberate. Would it not be better to keep her in Ignorance? What was to be gained by revealing to her the— But ^*i^-.— «%J*K A safe escort would he provided for us, and we would be on British toil within a few hours after our meeting. It is only necessary to add that when I arrived at Green Fancy I met Prince Ugo—and understood! I had carefully covered my tracks after leaving Boston. My real friends were, and still are, completely in the dark as to my movements, so skilfully was the trick managed." "And now for Chester NalsmltlL It was he wito, acting for the misguided loyalists and recommended by certain young aristocrats who by virtue of their own dissipations had come to know him as a man of Infinite resourcefulness and daring, planned and carried out the pillaging of the palace vaults. Almost under the noses of the foreign guards he succeeded In obtaining the jewels. No doubt he could have made off with them at that time, but he shrewdly preferred 4p have them brought to America by some one else. It gyould have been impossible for him to dispose of them In Europe. You see how cunning he is? "He was no doubt thwarted in his design to waylay me on the road from Spanish Falls by a singular occurrence In this tavern. He_was attacked In his room here, overpowered, bound and gagged by two men. He knew the men. They were thieves as clever and as merciless as himself. They too were watching for me. I do not know how these men learned of my intention to come to Green Fancy." "They came to the Tavern four, or Beauty restore the splendors of the demolished castle, refill the chests of gold that have been emptied by the conquerors, and restock the farms that have been pillaged and devastated.

"Good-by and good luck forever." "You are a brick, O'Dowd. I want to see you again. You will always find me—" "Thanks. Don't issue any rash Invitations. I might take you up." Barnes started upstairs as soon as O'Dowd was off, urged by an eagerness that put wings on his feet and a thrill of excitement in his blood. Halfway up be stopped short A new condition confronted him.^ What was the proper way to approach a person of royal blood? He would have to think.

"I saw no occasion to disturb your rest/' he mumbled. "I have been peeping," .she said, looking at him searchlngly. "Where is Mr. Loeb going, Mr. Barnes?" "O'Dowd says he is to be gone for a few days on business," he equivocated. "He will not return," she said quietly. "He Is a coward at heart Oh, I know him well," she went on, scorn in her voice. "Was I wrong in not trying to stop him?" he askfid. She pondered this for a moment "No," she said, but he caught the dubious note in her voice. "It is Just as well, perhaps, that he should disappear. His flight today spares—but we are more interested in the man Sprouse. Has he returned?" "No, Miss Cameron," said he ruefully. And then, without a single reservation, he laid bare the story of Sprouse's defection. When he Inquired if she bad heard of the man known as Chester Nalsmith, she confirmed his worst fe*>r by describing him as the gnnrd n i forking wiiii Ynrnr&F~WS5?T is this, and I think it is Justified by events: .The men were really secret agents, sent here to watch the movements of the gang up there.

Possibly he led them to believe that you were one of the conspirators. They waited for your arrival and then risked the hazardous trip to Oreen Fancy. They were discovered and shot" - "I believe you are right," she cried. "Then we have accounted for Mr. Sprouse, and I am no longer interested in the unraveling of the mystery surrounding the deaths of Roon and Paul," said Barnes. "There is nothing to keep me here any longer, Miss Cameron. I suggest that you allow me to escort you at once to yopr friends, wherever they—" She was opposed to this plan. While there was still a chance that Sprouse might be apprehended In the neighborhood, or the-possibility of his being caught by the relentless pursuers, she declined to leave. "Then, I shall also stay" said he "Thanks," said Miss Thackeray dryly. "I'll come in again and let you hear me tn the third act" She went out, mumbling her lines as she passed Barnes wUhout seeing him. "I hope you will feel able to- leave this place tomorrow, countess. We must get away almost immediately." "Ah, you have been listening to O'Dowd, I see." "Yes. He tells me It will be dangerous to—" "He Is right It would be difficult for me to clear myself.

"Alas, I fear that I shall have to tell you a little more about this wonderful man you know as Sprouse. Six months ago the friends and supporters of the legitimate successor to my country's throne consummated a plan whereby the crown Jewels and certain documents of state were surreptitiously removed from the palace vaults. Instead of depositing ihe treasure In Paris, it was sent to this country In charge of a group of men whose fealty could not be questioned. The man you know as Loeb is In reality my cousin. I hsve known him all my life. He is the youngest brother of the pretender to the throne, and a cousin of the prince who is held prisoner by the Austrians. This prince has a brother also, and It was to him that I was supposed to deliver the Jewels.

"I may as well tell you that she Is in more danger from the government secret service than from anyone up yonder." "She may prefer to face the music O'Dowd.

Barnes was abroad early. He was at breakfast when Peter Ames called up. An Inspiration seized him when the chauffeur mentioned the wholesale exodus: he hired Peter forthwith and ordered him to report Immediately— with the car. He was going up to Green Fancy for Miss Cameron's wardrobe. Two minutes after Peter drove up to the Tavern he was on the way back to Green Fancy again, and seated beside him was Thomas Kingsbury Barnes, his new master. There was not a sign of human life about the place. Peter accompanied him upstairs to the room recently occupied by Miss Cameron. They found two small leather trunks, thickly belabeled, in the room upstairs. Both were locked. (TO B S CONTINUED.) ^*%T* I I 1?rug .^^L?.t.~iaj^t_pajcks4ce* also.

E mmm DISTRIBUTED The Use of Large Teams Saves Man Power. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) More efficient utilization - o f horse power on the average farm will assist in a large measure in saving labor. The necessary horse power Is usually available for the efficient operation of the average American farm, but this power Is not always utilised or distributed to greatest advantage. The practice of plowing as much land as possible in thejate fall rather than in the spring, when work is pressing, will result In labor saving, as this method utilizes both horse power and labor at a season when it would otherwise be practically Idle. In practically the entire cotton belt the one-horse breaking plow Is In general use. This requires the use of one man per horse in the operation of the farm. By the use of the two-horse breaking plow the same iHhor could "break more land and at the same time make a better seedbed. Labor Is Plentiful. with the same labor. In the harvesting of crops horse power may be utilized more efficiently in many sections by the use of more horse power per man. Co-operative use of machinery in harvesting the wheat and corn crop would utilize horse power and labor to advantage by the exchange of labor among small farmers. Use of Manure Spreader. Hauling out manure on the average farm as It is produced, instead of allowing it tocaccumulate around the buildings and hauling it out when convenient, would be an economical practice. Where the expenditure is justifiable the use of a manure spreader would distribute the manure to better advantage and effect considerable saving in labor over the old method of hauling out and spreading by hand.

This custom halTprevailed no doubt because the labor has been plentiful. But the use of horse planters, grain drills, fertilizer distributors, and manure spreaders, where the nmout of land under cultivntlon would justify the expenditure for the implements, n great saving of labor could be effected. In the cultivation of crops in mnny parts of the JBouth the use of the onehorse prow and sweep prevails, and because of the Inefficiency of these implements the crops must be hoed almost continually In order to keep the crop clean. This method could be improved upon by using the light harrow or weeder when the crop Is young and later 'the two-horse single-row cultivator. This would result In greatly Increasing the amount of work performed with the same labor, and at fhe same time doing the work more efficiently. Use Two-Row Cultivator. In many sections of the country the use of the two-row cultivator has been demonstrated as practicable, thereby utilizing more horse power and performing more work with the same labor.

The use of four er five horses on the double gr.ng plow would accomplish a much greater amount of work than is now performed per man on a majority of farms where the two-horse walking plow is used. In the preparation of the seedbed one mnn can readily handle four or six horses hitched to the section harrow to which additional sections have been added, thereby Increasing the amount otjand harrowed fr^iWjwgT^^'W 'tt* With the biggest crop of wheat on record about to be harvested, it is probable that in many neighborhoods thrashers will not be able to make their rounds In the usual time. Considerable quantities of wheat will have to wait beyond the usual thrashing time. If left in the shock, It will be damaged by every rain, even to some extent by the dew. The stacking of wheat has fallen into disuse in latter years, but it would be well, the department of agriculture says, for the farmer who Is not certain of prompt thrashing to_ consider it this year.

He had decided to take a chance with the* resourceful, indefatigable rascal. There was something convincing about Sprouse's version of the :.ffalr at Green Fancy. Barnes told him that he knew of Prince Ugo's fight. Sprouse looked thoughtful for a long time. "So O'Dowd knows that I really was after the swag, eh? He believes I got it?" "T suppose so."

An arc lamp swinging above the entrance shed a pitiless light upon the dreary, Godforsaken hostelry with the ironic name. Miss Cameron was warmly conscious of the thrill that had come Into her blood when he carried her up the stairs In his powerful arms, disduinlng the offer of assistance from the suddenly Infatuated Tommy Gray.

"Jonrs," said the new member, shamelessly. Barnes went down to the dingy lobby. A single, half-hearted electric bulb shed Its feeble light on the desk, in front of which stood a man registering tinder the sleepy eye of the night clerk. Barnes was turning aw^y when a familiar voice assailed him. Whirling, be looked into the face of a man who stood almost at his elbow —Lho sharp, Impassive face of Mr. Sprouse. C H A P T E R X X . The First Wayfarer Has One Treasure Thrust Upon Him—And Forthwith Claims Another. "What are you doing here?" demanded Barnes, staring.

It's the breath of life to me." "The time will surely come wh,en 1 can do you a good turn, Sprouse, and you will not find me reJnctant," said Barnes, lamely. "Thafs different. If I *ver need a friendly hand I'll call on you. It's only fair that I should give you a tip, Barnes, just to put you on your guard. From now on. I'm a free agent.

Me switched off the light suddenly. There was no sound for many seconds, save the deep breathing of the two men. Then, with infinite caution, Sprouse turned the knob and opened the door a half loch or so. He left the room so abruptly that Barnes never quite got over the weird impression that he squeezed through that slender crack, and pulled It after him! Many minutes passed before h*s turned on the light. The key of the box was tied to the wire grip. With trembling flngexs he Inserted It In the lock and opened the lid. . . . "A half-million dollars' worth of nice little things." Sprouse had said ! He did nor close his eyes that night. Daybreak found him lying in hod, with the box under his pillow, a pistol at hand, and his eyes wide open. He was in a graver quandary than ever.

BLAME HIGH COST OF LIVING Workers in Chicago District Already Out—Quit Without Authority of Unions' Officers. Washington.—Dissatisfied with President Wilson's proposal to have Congress create a special body to pass on their demands, or consider them in connection with the high coat of living problem, the railway shop men have began to take an official strike vote. The shopmen contend that the Railway Wage Board of the Railroad Administration should pass or their demands, and failing favorable action a strike of 500,000 men is threatened, labor officials said. B. M. Jewell, acting president of th3 railway employes department of the American Federation of Labor, said that plans have been made,Jo call Tor a strike vote, returnable Aug. 24 at midnight, to the 500,000 employes of American railroads, and the 10,000 employes of Canadian railroads affected. -~«s= --- - ^ ^ T " fc-^r i.ViBt Complete Tieup Predicted.

A Trip by Night and a Lata Arrival. Shortly after sundown that evening, the Rushcroft company evacuated Hart's Tavern. They were delayed by the Irritating and, to Mr. Rushcroft, unpardonable behavior of two officious gentlemen, lately arrived, who insisted politely but firmly on prying into the past, present and future history of the several members-of the organization, including the new "backer." Barnes had devised a verj clever plan for getting Miss Cameron away from the tavern without attracting undue attention. She was to leave In one of the automobiles that he had engaged to convey the players to Crowndale, where they were to "show." In case of detention or Inquiry, she was to pose as a stagestruck young woman who had obtained a place with the company at the last moment through his Influence. When the hour came for the depar- L .: - from Hurt's Tavern he deliberatefor a weelfor ren a a y s . ' a n u goes oy the name of Mrs. Hasselweln. I popped down here this afternoon and found out that she is at the sanatorium, hut that - she expects to leave tomorrow morning. I made another trip out there this evening and waited. About eight o'clock Mr. Hasselweln strolled up. He sat on the veranda with her for half an hour flrnso and then left. I followed him. He went to one of the little cottages firat belong to the sanatorium. I couldn't get close enough to hear what they said, but I believe he expects to take her away In an automobile early in the morning. It I" a seventy-mile ride from here to the Junction where they catch the train for the West. I'na going up npw to make a call on Mr. Hasselweln, By the way, what Is the number of your room?" "Twenty-two—on the next floor." "Good. Go upstairs now and Til Join you in about ten minutes. I will tap three times on your door." "Why should you come to ray room, Sprouse? We can say all that Is to be said—" "If you will look on the register you will discover that Mr. J. H. Prosser registered here about half an hour ago. He is In room 30. He left a call for 6v«. o'clock. Well. Prosser is an- •'-.•-• i b-v,•:-.,. Ugo is the one who got the baron—or Roon, as you know him. Now, that is the true story of the little affair. "To go back to my own troubles. When I got out into the hall night before last, after leaving her room, I heard voices whispering In Prince Ugo's room. I beat it up the stairway into the attic. Nothing happened, so I sneaked down to have a peep around. The door to Ugo's room was open, but there was no light on the inside. He came to the door and looked up and down the hall. Then some o**» else came out and started to sneak away. I leave yon to guess the sex. "Nicholas butted in at this unfortunate Juncture. He made the mistake of his life. Ugo Jumped back Into his room. In less than a second he was out again. He landed squarely on Nicholas' back as the fellow turned to escape. I saw the steel flash. Poor old Nick went down in a heap, letting out a horrible yell. Ogo dragged him into the room and dashed back into his own. A moment later he came out again, yelling for help. There was only one thing left for me to do and that was t o get out on the roof if possible, and wait for things to quiet down. I got out through a trap door and stayed there for an hour or so. "Well, to shorten the .story, 1 finally took a chance and slid down to the eaves where I managed to And the limb of a tree big enough to support 1Tie—jUSt as if the Lord had ordered it put there for my special benefit I was soon on the ground, and that meant safety for me.

All beat up, something fierce they say." "Up In— Where?" almost shouted Barnes, starting up. The man explained where the cottages wore situated. "Seems he was to leave by auto early this mornin', and they didn't know anything was wrong till Joe Keep—he's driving a car Mr. Norton has for rent—till .Toe'd been settin' out in front for nearly half an hour. The man's wife was waitln' fer him up at the main bulldin' and she got so tired waitln' that she sent one of the clerks down to see what was keeping her husband. Well, sir, him and Joe couldn't wake the feller, so they climb In an open winder, an' by gosh, Joe says It was terrible. The feller was layin' on the bed, feet an' hands tied and gagged, and blood from head to foot. He was Inconscious, Joe says, an'—my God, how his wife took on! Joe says he couldn't stand It, so he snook out, shakin' like a leaf." "Is—Is the man dead?" cried Barnes, aghast. "Nope! Seems like It's nothtng serious: lust beat up, that's all. Terrible schedules '"aim m^zzr^ - ^- -—~~ crippled seriously. Already steel mills and other industries at Gary and other northern Indiana points and in Chi. cago have begun to feel the effects of the strike, according to union leaders, and when the strike 4s more complete factories and mills virtually will be forced to close down for lack ol ore, coal and other essentials.

Tommy Gray's car, occupied by the four players, was moving away from the door as he sprang in beside her and slammed the door. Peter's efforts to stay behind Tommy's venerable but surprisingly ener» getic car were the cause of many a gasp and shudder from the couple who sat behind him in the bounding car. He had orders to keep back of Tommy but never to lose sight of his tail light "Are you there?" he whispered. "Yes. Isn't it jolly, ruaning away like this?

Ten o'clock would find them at the Grand Palace hotel, none the worse for wear, provided (he always put it parenthetically) they lived to tell the tale! The luggage had gone on ahead of them earlier in the day. Soon after ten o'clock they entered i could uav«j got to him uu tLc vv^y over." Barnes, regardless of consequences, dashed over to inspect the register. Sprouse followed leisurely. "See!" cried Barnes, excitedly, putting his finger on the name "Miss Jones." "She'a In room 32—next to his. By gad, Sprouse, do you suppose he knows that she is here? Would the dog undertake anything—" "You may be sure he dosen't know she's here, or you either, for that matter. The country's full of Joneses and Barneses. Go on upstairs. Leave everything to me." Barnes had been in his room for twenty minutes before he heard the tapping on his door. He opened It and Sprouse slid into the room. The instant the door closed behind him. he threw open his coat and coolly produced a long, shallow metal box, such as one finds In safety vaults. "With my compliments," he said dryly, thrusting the box into Barnes* hands. "You'd- better have the countess check them np and see if they're all there. I am not well enough acquainted with the collection to be positive." Barnes was speechless. He could only stare, open-mouthed, at this amazing man. "My God. Sprouse, have you been in that man's room since I saw you down—" "All you have to do is to keep quiet and look innocent. Stay out of the hall tonight Don't go oo*r the door of II v lo:;j: nliMtif : midnight, Judgin* by the way the blood co'gulated." "Did they g.et away with much?" "Haven't heard.

When on© itops to consider the host of thin people who are searching continually for some method by which they may Increase their flesh to normal proportion* by the tilling out of ugly hollows, the rounding off of protruding angles with the attendant bloom of health and attractiveness, it is no wonder that many and varied suggestions along this line appear from tune to time in public print. While excessive thinness might be attributed to various and- subtle causes In different individuals It Is a. well-known fact that the lack of sufficient phosphorous in the human system is very largely responsible for thla condition. Experiments on humans and animals by many scientists have demonstrated beyond question of doubt that a body deficient in phosphorous becomes nervous, sickly and thin. A noted author and professor in his book, "Chemistry and Food Nutrition," published in 1918, says: "• • • that the amount of phosphorous required for the normal nutrition of man is serUoaly underestimated in many of our standard text books." It sterns to be well established that this deficiency in phosphorous may now be met by the" use of an organic phosphate known throughout English speaking countries as Bltro-Phosphate. Through the assimilation of this phosphate by the nerve tissue the phosphoric content when absorbed In the amount normally required by ^ature soon produces a welcome change in our body and mind. Nerve tension disappears, vigor and strength replace weakness and lack of energy, and the whole body soon loses Its ugly hollows and abrupt angles, becoming enveloped In a glow of perfect health and bsauty and the will and strength to be up and doing. CAUTION:—While Bltro-Phosphate Is onsurpassed for the relief of nervousness, general debility, etc., those taking it who do not desire to put on flesh should use extra care In avoiding fat-producing foods. -ojjaiea^iv*!.-^-- He Was Learning.

KEEP MACHINES IN REPAIR Separators Out' of Adjustment Are Cause of Greatest Trouble— Threaherman Should Study Manufacturer's Instructions. (Prepared by the United S t a t e s D e p a r t - m e n t of Agriculture.) Every Important grain state has been losing over a million bushals of grain each year because of Inefficient threshing methods, declare Investigators of the United States department of agriculture. The government, by bringing this enormous loss to the attention of farmers and threshermen and showing them how to avoid It, saved 22,000,000 bushels of grain In the 21 states in which the educational work was carried on last year. When an average of eight bushels of grain Is lost on every farm In the United States at threshing time every year, that loss begins to have a personal meaning. With wheat worth S2.2G, It is well worth -while to pre- -V'A, ^ . . - r f . • i/••T-?'--•;&. - -S-JW^-V-. . " v~-~_. ~ ' . ? x - * c ;NEY Dry grain demands a lower speed of the cylinder. Unthreshed heeds -are often found in the tailing*, Thla results from missing or brdkeft teeth, or teeth too far apart, not centered, or badly worn; concave set too tow, or concave with not enough teeth. The speed of the cylinder also causes many unthreshed heads. Damp, unripe or moldy grain requires more than normal speed of the cylinder to thresh It out welL Operator Should Know Machine. Grain Is lost through the Improper adjustment of other parts of the separator as well as, the cylinder, so it is evident that the operator must be thoroughly familiar with the entire machine. It may not be possible to save all the grain now lost, but the careless operator who does not know how to adjust the different parts of his machine will waste a great amount unnecessarily. He will surely have to make frequent stops for adjustment Every time a machine stops the whole crew must be fdle until It starts again —a loss of time to everybody concerned. Manufacturers furnish Instruction books on the care and operation of their threshing machine. They have spent years In experimenting, and they know how their machines should be run to secure the most satisfactory results, A great deal of the trouble experienced by the thresherman is due to his disregard of or even neglect to read the manufacturers' instructions. There are other ways In which grain can be saved, but the proper operation of the separator is the most important. Efficient operation of the threshing machine should interest both threshermen and farmers. Decrease In Prices of Horses. Horses under one year of age on /arms in Canada averaged $56 a head in price in 1918 against $57 in 1917; horses one to less thap three years old, $112, against $116 in 1917; and horses three years old and over, $102, against $167 in 1917.

FORTY YEABS AGO almost every mother thought her child most hftta PAREGORIC or laudanum to make it sleep. These drugs will produce sleep, and a FEW DROPS TOO MANY will produce the SLEEP FROM WHICH THERE I S NO WAKING. Many are the children who have been killed or whose health has been ruined for life by paregoric, laudanum and morphine, each of which is a narcotic product of opium. Druggists are prohibited from selling either of the narcotics named to children at all, or to anybody without labelling them " poison." The definition of " narcotic" is: "A medicine which relieves pain and produces sleep, but whxch in poison* ous doses produces stupor, coma, oonvukdona and death." The taste and smell of medicines containing opium are diaguised, and sold under the names of " Drops," " Cordials," " Soothing Syrups, e t c You should n o t p e r m i t any medicine to be given to your children without you or your physician know of what it is composed.

The unnecessary loss of 7 pints occurred every two minutes the separator was in operation. This means that 4[/2 Pe»" cent of the grain was lost. vent that loss, If possible. And It is entirely possible. The chief source of loss Is the Inefficient operation of threshing machines. Any standard threshing machine will do satisfactory work If kept in repair and operated intelligently. If the operator knows his machine, and sees that It Is properly adjusted and opcrated, grain will come through clean und losses will be small.

Manure used in connection with continuous grain cropping did not maintain the yields, but when used In connection with crop rotation the yields of all crops were Increased.

GAPES IN LITTLE CHICKENS Disease Kills More Young Fowls Than Any Other Ailment—Dlscour. ages Poultry Keeping. Probably more little chickens are killed by gap€»s than by any other one disease. On nearly every farm at Tefi'fiTn fi-w chickens die every spring nf this trouble, and on mnny farms the loss Is so great as to discourage the keeping of poultry. For Two Weeks Give Mixture of Cornmeal, Middlings, Bran, Meat Scrap and Green Feed.

Culling not only requires thorough knowledge of the fowls, but there Is a sentimental side involved in this matter of sorting; for the poultryman who succeeds usually Is the one who hecomes attached to h!a pets, and regards them as old friends. Beef Cattle. Raising heef cattle is likely to at* tract the attention of farmers who rr.ise considerable feed and who have some pasture. Prices of prime beef steers are likely to remain high and perhaps go higher. Caring for Grain Sacks. With grain sacks almost a dollat apiece, and not a wonderful quality at that, surely one of the leaks on the farm—a leak that was once called a small one—can be stopped by taking care of the bags.

Denominationational lines were even more tightly drawn then than now and each sect had its adherents. The spirit Jof rivalry which was then engendered, 1 am sorry to say, has never quite been obliterated there nor in many other rural communities. fhe Methodists - | always in the van of pioneer religious \ work- had formed a class in Pinckney, | VV. H. Place way, Moses Fuller, N. N. , Whitcomb, John Lakin and John Van j Fleet were members of that class. | There were quite a number of Bap-1 tists among the earliest settlers Jesse] K. Hause, Joins \'oung, Mrs. Duer and Mrs. C. W. Haze being of that persuasion. My grandfather, Phillip Faman, who had sold the farm in West Putnam to <ny mother's father, Deacon Wood and re .oved to Pinckney, was a devout PresDyterian. He bequeathed by will his house and lot in the viilage of Pinckney to the trustees of the First Presbyterian Church, when it should be organized. A Presbyterian church was never organized in Pinckney but a Congregatiotal Society was ! organized, and by consent of all the I heirs the house and lot—wl: ich was the 1 little red cottage on the site now occupied by the residence of the late S. G. Teeple was given to that society. , I think the property was sold for $600 . which for Tied the nucleus of a building i fund with which the present Congre-, Rational church was built. \ The names of Jehn Wood and family. I Leonard Noble and family, Tracy Kichmond and family and A. A. Holeomb ! and wife will be found on the roll1 of the charter members of tnat congregation. 1 will not undertakt to say whether the Methodists or Congregationalists were first to sta/t a movement to build a church, but I will say that mcve wag the beginning of a bitter and jealous rivalry between the twq con^regation^ which it took many years to forgive and forget. One thought the other should wait until the first should be completed, as the cost would be too great on the communiry to carry on the building of two churches in the same year. But there was no compromise and the race began to see which should be first to dedicate their house of worship. My father was given the contract for building the Congregational church, l h e timbeis were gotten out in the rough during the previous winter and piled nlong the roadside in front of our house. Such scantlings and joists as were of oak were sawed at Reeve's mill. Funds for building were raised by voluntary subscriptions and! such subscribers as had teams helped to pay their subscriptions by hauling t i e pine lumber from Flint, the nearest point where is was obtainable. Gustavus Taylor, a master carpenter from Ann Arbor, had charge of the work, The timbers were hewn and framed ready to be put together at our house and hauled to the village on wagons. It is just within my recollection, the baskets of biscuits and doughnuts and cheeses (all made in our own kitchen) that were cariied down to feed the hungry crowd of men and boys came from miles around to lift their bit at the "raising" I am not able to say which of the churches was the first to be raised, but whichever it was, it was probably the largest timber frame that was ever erected in the township, In due time the building was completed and ready for dedication. Then came the struggle to raise the funds for final payment. One means was the s«le of pews at auction. I hoH the the deeds of two pews v\ that church which my father bid in—ore for .-100 and one for *_M0. If there is a record of the pew owners of that day it will give tia' narir-s of many who were ^ot members, union;-; whom w i,t be Joel K. Dunning, Alvin Mann, Is^ac Coleman, Chas.

Mr. Prosser was Bleeping just as soundly and as resoundingly as at midnight! "By gad I" he muttered, half-aloud. Everything was as clear as day to him now. Bolting Into his own room, he closed the door and stood stockstlll for many minutes, trying to picture the scene In the cottage. He found a letter In his box when he went downstairs, after** stuffing the tin box deep into his pocket. Bef<fre he slit the envelope he knew that Sprouse was the writer. The message was brief: "After due consideration, I feel that It would be a mistake for you to abandon your present duties at this time. It might be misunderstood. Stick to the company until something better turns up. With this thought in view I withdraw the two days' limit mentioned recently to you, and extend the time to one week. Yours very truly, "J. H. WILSON." "Gad, the fellow thinks of everything," said Barnes to himself. "He enlm and sensible. See how well I have myself in hand? I do not tremble, 1 am strong. We may now discuss ourselves calmly, sensibly. Oh ! What are you doing?" "I too am strong," he whispered. "I am sure of my ground now, and I am not afraid." He had clasped the hand that rested on his sleeve and, as he pressed it to his heart, his other arm stole over her shoulders Snd drew her close to his triumphant bod-y. For an Instant she resisted, and then relaxed into complete submission. Her head sank upon his shoulder. "Oh !" she sighed, and there was wonder, joy—even perplexity, in the tremulous sigh of capitulation. "Oh," came softly from her parted lips again at the end of the first long, passionate kiss. .1« TV*RI.H.K«J.,V. j-m/je.t^n^-'.' CHAPTER X X I . The End In Sight. Barnes, soaring beyond all previous heights of exaltation, ranged dizzily between "front" arid "back" at the Grand opera house that evening. He was in the "wings" with her, whispering in her delighted ear; In the dressing- room, listening to her soft words r. -^30^.; :.- r.^Ztfm&T,- ir„ n. •^r^.^ftF^ij*^; ^/:¾..¾ Mrs. Courtney was not only carious but apprehensive. She hadn't the faintest idea who Miss Cameron was, nor where her brother had picked her up. But she saw at a glance that she was lovely, and her soul was filled with strange misgivings. She was Like all sisters who have pet bachelor brothers. She hoped that poor Tom hadn't gone and made a fool of himself. The few minutes' conversation she had with the stranger only served to increase her alarm. Miss Cameron's voice and smile—and her__eyes 1—were positively alluring. She had had a night letter from Tom that morning in which he said that he was bringing a young lady friend down" from the north—and would she meet them at the station and put her up for a couple of days? That was all she knew of the dazzling stranger up to the moment she saw her. Immediately after that she knew by Intuition a great deal more about her than Tom could have told in volumes of correspondence. She knew, also, that Tom was lost forever! "Now tell me," said the countess the instant they entered the Courtney apartment. She gripped both of his arms with her firm little hands and looked straight into his eyes, eagerly, hopefully. She had forgotten Mrs. Courtney's presence, she had not taken the time to remove her hat or jacket "Let's all sit down," said he. "My knees are unaccountably weak. Come along, Ede. Listen to the romance of my life.'" And when the story was finished the countess took his hand In hers and held it to her cool cheek. The tears were still drowning her eyes. "Oh, you poor dear t Was that why you grew so haggard and pale and hollow-eyed?" "Partly," said he with great significance. "And you had them In your pack all the time? You—" MI had Sprouse's most solemn word not to touch them for a wee£. He Is the only man I feared. He Is the only one who could have—" "Leave it to me, Ede," said Barnes gently, and, laying his hand upon his sister's arm, he led her from the room. Then he came swiftly back to the outstretched arms of the exile. "A very brief New York engagement," he whispered in her ear, he Knew not how long afterward. Her head was pressed against iris shoulder, her eyes were closed, her lips parted in the ecstasy of passion. "Yes," she breathed, so faintly that he barely heard the strongest word ever put into the language of man. Half an hour later he was speeding down the avenue in a taxi. His blood was singing, his heart was bursting with joy—his head was light, for the feel of her was still in his arms, the voice of her in his enraptured ears. He was hurrying homeward to the "diggings" he was soon to desert forever. He was to spend the night at his sister's apartment. When he issued forth from his "diggings" at halfpast seven he was attired in evening clothes, and there was not a woman In all New York, young or old, who would have denied him a second glance. Later on in the evening three of the countess' friends arrived at the Courtney home to pay thetr respects to their fair compatriot and to discuss the crown Jewels. They came and brought with them the consoling information that arrangements were practically completed for the delivery of the jewels into the custody of the French embassy at Washington, through whose Intervention they were to be allowed to leave the United States without the formalities usually observed in cases of suspected smuggling. Upon the arrival In America of trusted messengers from Paris, headed by no less a personage than the ambassador himself, the Imperial treasure was to pass into hands that would carry It safely to France. Prince Sebastian, still in Halifax, had been apprised by telegraph of the recovery of the jewels, and was expected to sail for England by the earliest steamer. And while the visitors at the Courtney house were lifting their glasses AUTO WRECKED BY TRAIN; 5 KILLED DRIVER FAILS TO HEED DANGER SIGNAL, GETS INTO PATH OF FAST MAJL. ALL VICTIMS BADLY MANGLED Machine and Occupants Thrown Higfr In Air By Impact, Crowd At Station Witnesses Accident LAwton, Mich.—Five persons, a man, woman and three children, were instantly killed Sunday when train No. 39, the west bound mail, crashed into an automobile in which they were riding at the Main street crossing in this village. The victims were Hyman Polakow, aged 60, of Paw Paw; Arthur Polakow, aged 5, son of Samuel Polakow, of Chicago, Mrs. Rosa Silverstein and her two daughters, Irene, aged 11, and Beatrice, aged 7. Caught on the engine pilot, Mr3. Silverstein, the mother, and one of her children were carried fully 600 feet, before the train was stopped. Beatrice was badly mangled, one leg being cut off and her head crushed. The other girl was also badly cut up. Hyman Polakow, the driver, was terribly bruised. His face could hardly be recognized. The station platform a few yards away was crowded with persons waiting fo? the east bound Chicago-Detroit train, which was pulling^ into the station when the accident occurred. The machine and its occupants were tossed high in am air. According to eye-witnesses, a flagman was standing on the east bound tracks when the nurnmnhno ^ - ^ ^ . ^ ' l U L U t l ^ L l_ iA V, IJ * 0 . ^ - - ^ .ttV-^Ut ~m^¾ ¾^ . .->x =S«!»?w£!j^3?!!^ * • : • ' i i occurrvu to nun u m i UJS pmn to ieuvtfor NeV York that day with Miss Cameron might be attended by disastrous results. But the Jewels? What of them? He could not go gallivanting about the country with a half million dollars' worth of precious stones In his possession. He spent the early part of the forenoon in wandering nervously about the hotel—upstairs and down. The Jewels were locked In his pack upstairs. He went up to his' room half a dozen times and almost instantly walked down again, after satisfying himself that the pack had not been rifled. Fa* the next three days and nights rehearsals were In full swing, with scarcely a moment's let-up. And so the time crept by, up to the night of the performance. Miss Cameron remained In Ignorance of the close proximity of the Jewels, and the police of Crowndale remained in even denser ignorance as to the whereabouts of the man who robbed Mr. Hasselwein of all his spare cash and an excellent gold watch. No time was lost by the countess in getting word to her compatriots In New York. Barnes posted a dozen let- i inga of injr safety and tho assurance that she would soon follow In person. Those three days and nights were full of Joy and enchantment for Barnes. He actually debased himself by wishing that the Rushcroft comipany might find It imperative to go on rehearsing for weeks in that dim, enchanted temple. He sat for hours in one of the most uncomfortable seats he had ever known, devouring with hungry eyes the shadowy, interested face so close to his own—and never tired. On the afternoon of the dress rehearsal he led her, after an hour of almost Insupportable repression, to the rear of the auditorium. Dropping into the seat beside her he blurted out, almost In anguish : "I can't stand It any lnger. I cannot be near you without—why, I—I— well, it is more than I can struggle against that's all. You've either got to send me away altogether or—or— let me love you without restraint. I tell you I can't go on as I am now. You know I love you, don't you? You know I worship you. Don't be frightened, I Just had to tell you today. I should have gone mad If I had tried to keep it up any longer." He waited breathlessly for her to speak. She sat silent and rigid, looking straight before her. "Is it hopeless?" he went on at last, huskily. "Must I ask your forgiveness for my presumption and— and go away from you?" She turned to-him and laid her hand upon his arm. **Am I not like other women? Why should I forgive you for loving me? Doesn't every woman want to be loredf No, no, my friend! Wait! A moment ago I was so weak and trembly that I thought I—oh, I was afraid _£ormyself. Now I am quit* m e m ; una aLJ rne nme ne WHS urvmilng the moment when he would awake and find It all n drenm. Thure was an annoying fly In hlB ointment, however, "I love you," she had said simply. "1 want more than nnythlng else In all the world to be your wife. But I cannot promise now. I must have time to think, time to—M "Why should you require more time than I?" he persisted. "What Is time to us? Why make wanton waste of it?" "I know that-1 cannot find happiness except with you," she replied. "No matter what happens to me, I shall always love you, I shall never forget the joy of this. But—I cannot promise now," she finished gently and kissed him. Between the second and third acts Ttmimy <lrfty- rushed back- with the box-office statement. The gross was $359. The Instant that fact became known to Mr. Rushcroft he informed Barnes that they had a "knockout," a gold mine, and that never In all his career had he known a season to start off so auspiciously as this one. Three days later Barnes and "Miss Jones" said farewell to the strollers and boarded a day train for New York city. They left the company In a conaveragiug two -hundred dothu'w tu&iiv.j? and Mr. Rushcroft was already booking return engagements for the early fall. He was looking forward to a tour of Europe at the close of the war. Barnes' sister, Mrs. Courtney, met them at the Grand Central terminal. "It's now n quarter to five," said Barnes after the greeting and presentation. "Drop me at the Fifth Avenue bank, Edith. I want to leave something in my safety box downstairs. Sha'n't be more than five minutes." He got down from the automobile at Forty-fourth street and shot across the sidewalk Into the bank, casting quick, apprehensive glances through the five o'clock crowd on the avenue as he sprinted. In his hand he lugged the heavy, weatherbeaten pack. His sister and the countess stared after him in amazement. Presently he emerged from the bank, still carrying the bag. He was beaming. A certain worried, haggard expression had vanished from his face, and for the first time in eight hours he treated his trnveling wardrobe with scorn and indifference. "Thank God, they're off my mind at last," he cried. "That is the first good, long breath I've had in a week. No, not now. It's a long story and I can't tell it in Fifth avenue. It would be extremely annoying to have both of you die of heart failure with all these people looking on." He felt her hand on his arm, and knew that she was looking at him with wide, incredulous eyes, but he faced straight ahead. He was terribly afraid that the girl beside him was preparing to shed tears of Joy and relief. He could feel her searching in her Jaefcw packet for A handkerchief. so ill-mannered, butTI—I must call up one or two people at once. They are my friends. You will understand, I am sure." Barnes was pacing the floor nervously when his sister returned after conducting her new guest to the room prepared for her. The countess, was at the telephone before the door closed behind her hostess. "I wish you had been a little more explicit in your telegram, Tom," she said peevishly. "If I had known who she Is I wouldn't have put her In that room. Now I shall have to move Aunt Kate back into It tomorrow and give Miss Cameron the big one at the end of the hall." Which goes to prove that Tom's sister was a bit of a snob in her way. "Stop walking like that and come here." She faced him accusingly; - -"Have you- told all_thexe. J s to tell, sir?" "Can't you see for yourself, Ede, that I'm In love with her? Desperately, horribly, madly in love with her. Don't giggle like that I I couldn't have told you while she was present, could I?" "That Isn't what I want to know. Is she In love with you? That's what I'm after." <'V,>r . t , i v ~ v-~+ r l i n o t i n « H T , w p u m u IUOU »ruo otowwing over a rifled knapsack In a room far downtown, glumly regarding the result of an unusually hazardous undertaking, even for one who could perform such miracles as he. Scratching his chin, he grinned—for he was the kind who bears disappointment with a grin—and sat himself down at the big library table In the center of the room. Carefully selecting a pen-point he wrote: "It will be quite obvious to you that I called unexpectedly tonight. The week was up, you see. I take the liberty of leaving under the paperweight at my elbow a two-dollar bill. It ought to be ample payment for the damage done to your faithful traveling companion. Have the necessary stitches taken in the gash and you will find the kit as good as new. I was more or less certain not to find what I was after, hut as I have done no Irreparable injury I am sure you will forgive my love of adventure and excitement.

"She Is perfectly adorable," fiala t>^, and was. at once aware of a guilty, nagging impression that she would not have said it to him half an hour earlier for anything in the world. She was strangely white and subdued when she rejoined them later on. She had removed her hat. The other woman saw nothing but the wealth of sun-kissed hair that rippled. Barnes went forward to meet her, filled with a sudden apprehension. "What is it? You are pale and— what have you heard?" She stopped and looked searchlngly Into his eyes. A warm flush rose to her cheeks; her own eyes grew soft and tender and wistful. "They all believe that the war will last two or three years longer," she said huskily. "I cannot go back to my own country till it is all over. They implore me to remain here with them until—until my fortunes are mended." She turned to Mrs. Courtney and went on without the slightest trace of Indecision or embarrassment in her manner. "You see, Mrs. Courtney. I am very, very poor. They have taken everything. I—I fear I shall have to accept this kind, generous proffer of a—" her voice shook slightly—" of a home with my friends until the Huns are driven o u t " Barnes' silence was more eloquent than words. Her eyes fell. Not until Mrs. Courtney expressed the hope that Miss Cameron would condescend to accept the hospitality of ber home until plans for the future were definitely fixed was there a sign that the object of her concern had given a thought to what she was saying. "You are so very kind," stammered the countess. "But I cannot think of Imposing upon—* *.\,£; ~ t>^ sition to lest youir sincerity. We may meet again, and I hope under agreeable circumstances.

Tell them, said he, that I ask God's blessing for them forever. He Is off tomorrow for Brazil. He was very much relieved when he heard that I did not get the jewels the first time I went after them, and Immensely entertained by my jolly description of how I went after them the second. By the way, you will be Interested to learn that he has cut loose from the crowd he was trailing with. Mostly nuts, he says.

The cause of the fire ia unknown, but it is believed it was started by a lighted_cigarette or match. The fTFe~started in tho mill and quickly the flames laid hold on tho skeleton structure of the railway. When the firemen arrived the mill was a blazing pyre and a few minutes later that part of the railway constructed over the mill fell with a crash into the roaring furnace. According to witness, a car filled with merrymakers took a fatal leap Into tho flames. the city, tnuu&ituun t.J ^«.» u^u., L^w ened to the park, seven miles away, in every manner of conveyance. Oh~reaching the resort nothing tragic at first met the eye of these curiosity seekers. To allay the fears of the thousands who already crowded the park, Sousa's band, which is playing there this week, continued its concert and while shouts of the firemen mingled with the moans of the dying there came from the bandstand ths notes of opera and ragtime airs.

No other kidney remedy has so large sale." According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact, so many people claim, that it fulfills almost every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments; corrects urinary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism.

In a lengthy statement, showing why the price of wheat would rise but for the government guarantee, Director Barnes promised a readjustment ot flour prices at the expense of the national treasury as authorized by congress, if later developments indicated a world price for wheat lower than the guaranteed price. 8teps will be taken by the grain corporation to sell standard export flour i n every community of the country In carload lots at a price not greater than $10 a barrel, Mr. Barnes announced. This price, he added is lower by $1 a barrel than any price ruling during the last four months.

It would appear that every line of labor is open to women. They ore now seen on the wharves In Portland, Maine, as gill-net spoolers. Each day, after a trip to the fishing grounds, the gill-nets have to be dried, and these reels are so arranged that the nets lie across them and are wound up similar to a piece of thread on a spool; in fact, they are gigantic spools. One reel will hold a great many nets, which are ready for use again In twenty-four hours. Women are now doing this sort of work. Many of them are wives of local fishermen. They receive fifty cents for each box of gillnets they spread on the reel. The women average from $4 to $4.50 a day. ; f -and some remarks ALLIGATOR HAb-fiOODrPOWIS South Carolina Newspaper Gives Sor*t Reasons Why Indlatrffnbiatt Killing Should Be Stooped.

In Louisiana It was fosnd that when the alligators were killed off the muskrats multiplied and destroyed the levees; also the cotton-mouth moccasin, the garfish and the carp increased wonderfully. Whereupon protection was given to the alligators. This lacertillan, to give him his correct family name, has probably kept the nroskrat away from the South Carolina coast for the muskrat is unknown on the coast. If allowed to multiply the alligator will make inroads on the carp, the garfish and the cotton-mouth, all undesirable members of our fauna. The sura total of the alligator's evil doing amounts to this: He catches a dog now and then; once in a long while pulls a hog or bites the tall off a cow, for sundry stump-tailed cows along the Atlantic Coast Line right of way have met misfortune In this way. The cow, the dog and the hog are out of place when the alligator can get at them; but at best very little of this happens.— Charleston News and Courier. Belgium After the War.

Peterson, American army aviators missing for a week, were received here August 17 at military headquarters. The letters stated the aviators were being held by bandits for $15,000 ransom somewhere in Mexico, and were threatened with death unless the ransom was paid. The demand for the ransom was received here and a report made at once to Major General Dickman, commanded of the Southern department. A message from a former Villa follower, now a member of the bandit band, was received at the border Sunday threatening to kill the American aviators if any evidence of military movements to search for the Americans was seen on the American side of the border. This message was addressed to Dawkins Kilpatrick, it was announced here. Mr. Kilpatrick at once sent a message to the Mexican bandits urging them to postpone the tkne limit fixed in the demand for the payment of $15,- 000 ransom for the release of the aviators until- Wednesday because of the delay in receiving their demand at the border. The whereabouts of the baridit rendezvous, from "»hich the American aviators were believed to have sent their message, is unknown here. Be- Belfllum Recuperating.

It seems to be well established that this deficiency In phosphorous may now be met by the use of an organic phosphate known throughout English speaking countries as Bitro-Phosphate. Through the assimilation of this phosphate by the nerve tissue the phosphoric content when absorbed In the amount normally required by nature soon produces a welcome change In our body and mind. Nerve tension disappears, vigor and strength replace weakness and lack of energy, and t h e whole body soon loses Us ugly hollows and abrupt angles, becoming enveloped in a glow of perfect health and beauty and the will and strength to be up aad doing.

There was a suggestion that unless foreigners concentrated in populous places it would be impossible to afford them the protection demanded. Notification of a possible change of policy was made by the American embasby at Mexico City on instructions from the state department, which determined upon this course as a result of the long, series of murders and outrages of Americans in Mexico, culminating in the murder of Peter Catron in San Luis Potosl last month.

Dempton, his errand done, was already upon his feet his eyes roving for the hat which Pedro had taken from him a few minutes ago. "But," cried De la Guerra, "you are not going back tonight senor? Surely you would not think of putting my hospitality so to shame! You must spend the night with us." moonlight brigbt about her, was not morei brtghl than the laugtitng eye* she tumfVi downward toward the adoring face of an Americano t ^ ^ . y o & ^ i a p T B ^ u g ^ -=^r-ii close-herd my steers, and yet Gaucbo. my foreman, reported to me this morning that the rebels had crossed over and bad driven off half a dozen cows tor me.? Agato he spread out his hands and lifted" his shoulders, "1A the daylight It Is one t h i n g - after dark it is another. I should be glad to send some of my vaqueros with you, senor." Still Dempton protested. There was a moon, his way ran across a wide open level land, and the rebels were not looking for complications with Uncle Sam. De la Guerra, too courteous a host to insist, smiled gravely, rose and went into the patio with the lawyer, directing Pedro to have Mr. Dempton's horse brought up from the stables. "Miss Teresa. I did not see her," Dempton remembered to say from the saddle. "She la well, I h o p e r "Very well, thank you, senor. I shall tell her that you inquired. And it was kind of you to take this long ride to tell me about the mistake in the will." "Good night, Mr. de la Guerra." "Buenas noches, senor." And Lawyer Dempton, his horse's mane and tail flying, was on his way through the moonlight night, and the old man, leaving Pedro to close the door after him, had gone back to his chair and wine and cigarettes. "Los Americanos," he muttered when he was alone again, "they are all alike. Yolfc cannot trust them. That Dempton has the eyes of a rat, the tace of af liar, the manner of*a convict Americanos on the one hand, Mexicanos on the other! Sangre de Dlos! I must take Tereslta away from them. Pedro I" CHAPTER I I . Abduction, hadenda where Antonio de la Guerra had lived for the fifty-odd years of his exile from his beloved Spain, where bis granddaughter bad been born and reared, v.aa one of the landmarks which linger on in stately whits walls under dark rod tiles from the time of the Spajtafe occupation. The old Spaniard was overlord of what had oncefpoen a grant from his grandfather's king, t h e boundaries carelessly marked in leagues instead of miles, He bred cattle and fine horses,Entrusted Gaucho Morales, his foreman, with the business details, and yet managed, so large and fertile was his empire, to go on from year to year swelling his wealth. The wlde-verandaed house with none of its walls iess than three feet thick, with great' spacious rooms, spread out across a wide extent of the shaded land among the olive and pear and pepper trees. In the time of the father of Antonio de la Guerra there had been fourteen rooms—now there were twenty. No less could suffice for the master of the estate and his cherished granddaughter. There was the patio with its flowering garden and leaping fountain. About it were the L'OOLUS, all cm the ground floor with the exception of the three* rooms added by the old man for the use of la senorlta. Here at the southeastern exposure of the rambling dwelling, a wide and winding staircase had been constructed to lead upward to a spacious landing. Thefi came broad doors, u deep window, and beyond the senorita's private sitting room. Her bedroom was highcelled, with much ornate embellishment after the Moorish fashion, and a lavish display of gilt under the domed roof. Upon the landing a couch where each night Pedro lay across his mistress* doorway. ^uAndXfaejn the balcony. Latest Markets LIVK STOCK—Of/TROIT.

And that I have no wish to learn? That is why I place these matters in the hands of an attorney." He bowed after the way of the eld school, and ended, smiling, "in the hands of a thoroughly competent attorney, senor." Dempton, a little man with a restless, nervous manner and eyes like a rat's, shifted In his chair, cleared his throat and thanked his patron, looking pleased on the whole. "This is a very important matter, Mr. de la Guerra," he offered, a trifle hesitantly and with keen eyes upon his host. "To be sure," the old man cut In Impatiently, though with no lessening of the courtesy of his speech. "A will is always important." He leaned forward, poured himself a glass of the red southern wine, lifted It so that the still candle flames shone in it brightly, and drank slowly. Already Dempton had been asked to /$..*„!, „„ >,„ nms niwnrg flRkfni when ••Thanx^oir, Mr. ae ia uuerra," ne said hastily. "But I must return to La Panza immediately." He managed a bow with a poor trial at the Spaniard's dignified grace, put out«hls hand quickly as though to have refused. The old man set down his glass and took tobacco and fine white paper from the tray upon the smaller table, his steady, slim white hands making the cigarette swiftly. "You say, Senor Dempton," he said when he had lighted a paper lighter at the nearest candlestick, "that ysu have found a flaw in the original w i l i r "Yes, sir.'* Dempton spoke hurriedly and ran on very much after the manner of a schoolboy who has gotten his lesson by heart and wants to "say* it before he forgets. "Only a small matter, a technical error, which might never be noticed. And yet there is a risk—there is danger that the will might eventually be set aside; because of it that your desires might come to naught; in a word, that the Senorlta Teresa, whom you wish to make your sole legatee, might never come Into the fortune you have willed to her. I have thought It best, sir, to draw up a new document** T o n have done soT" Inquired the old Spaniard, his eyes musingly upon the thin wisp of smoke from the cigarette. "Yes." Dempton slipped a red band into his breast pocket "If you win read it and sign It sir—if we can get the matter settled right sway, destroying the original documents—" "The details, Senor Dempton, I trust I may leave with you." De la Guerra waved a white hand gracefully. "Ton have attended to my business] for mo fof seventeen years now, and I k*vt never found cause for criticism." "Bueno. Convey to her my affectionate compliments, and tell her that I shall be for the half-hour adding a certain note to my American memoirs. After that I shall be pleased If she will come to me." "Si, senor." Swift and silent Pedro went upon his errand. Senor don AntonTcTlFe la Guerra, pushing the will to one side, drew a thick manuscript from the table drawer, and, writing in a fine, scholarly hand, began to add certain highly insulting commentaries to the chapter dealing with the vitriolic description of the character of "Los Americanos." (The book he planned to print In Spain.) Meantime the Senorlta Teresa de la Guerra, his demure granddaughter, was not in her room but upon her little rose-twined balcony, and the once there she was all but lost behind the bank of flowering roses, swallowed by a dim dusk through which the moon had difficulty in filtering, lapped In the perfume of the flowers which clung about the balcony In the warm June night. _ And from here,_whlle her scholarly grandfather annotated his remarks concerning the hated Americano, Teresa leaned out, her beauty as soft and delicate a thing as that of the rose brushing her cheek, trnd talked with one particular Americano. Reader, meet the adorable Senorita Teresa and the adoring Billy Stanway. (TO BE CUNTINL'KD.)

De la Guerra looked at him with a curious smile. "You are incomprehensible, you Americanos," he said softly. "You win insist on riding a dozen miles through the dark when there is a warm bed and bright candle light inviting you to stay.

"At least If you insist, you must allow „me to send some of my vaqueros with you." "No, no l" cried Dempton, already at the door. "It is unnecessary, Mr. de la Guerra. There is no danger." "As you will." Senor don Antonio spread out his white hands and lifted his shoulders slightly. "But you must remember that we are only half s mile from the border, and that those rascally Mexicans are a thieving, treacherous lot "1 have already given orders to fctrt- ~ V V . ' * . the law they cause very riftJe trouble Three acts have been quoted this week. One referred to an act of George H„ which allowed the landlord to charge a tenant he wished to leave his premises double rent The plaintiff claimed, but lost nls esse. Another was a claim by the admiralty tor freight on bullion carried from South Africa on a warship. This claim was decided in favor of the bankers, who got their freight free owing to an act that was passed In 1819 for the purpose of stopping the abuse of the privilege of conveying bullion in king's ships by the commercial community. An act that is still enforced Is one of James L, dated 1424, a Scottish statute. It reads: "If any mine of gold or silver be found in any lord's lands of the realm and it may be proved that three halfpennies of silver may be fined out of the pound of lead, the lords of parliament consent that such mine may be the king's, as is usual of other realms." Original "Yeomen.* The title "yeoman" is of military origin, and the yeomen were so styled because, besides the weapons fit for close engagement they fought with arrows and the bow, which was made of "yew," a tree that has more repelling force and elasticity than any other. After the Conquest the name of yeoman, as applied to their original office in war, was changed to that of archer. Start of Big Industry. Upon the Invt ltlon of a machine for sewing leather .ihoes, for which the patent wos issued to Gordon McKay, April 29, 1862, was built the grent boot and shoe industry of the United States.

FOOD PRICES FIXED, INQUIRY REVEALS TESTIMONY OF WHOLESALER AT LAN8ING HEARING SHOW8 WIDE-SPREAD COMBINE. HAND OF « 6 PACKERS SEEN tolling PHcee of Meats, Vegetables, Sugar, Canned Good* and All Other Staples Are Dictated. :---.- •*:£*%' Lanalng.—Prices of practically every staple food commodity are controlled by a corporation or association at some point along the line between tiie producer and the consumer, and, wherever that point may be, the oig five packers are likely to be found there or thereabouts. This is the essence of testimony taken in the state investigation into the high cost of living before Judge Howard Wiest in the Ingham Circuit Court immediately after the lid of secrecy was taken Off the court investigation. Article after article was mentioned as having a fixed and unvarying price among dealers. Sugar, canned Balmon, tuna fish, canned meats, canned vegetables, cheese, condensed milk, lard, soap, coffee, canned fruits and so far as the city of Lansing is concerned, butter, eggs and bread were so quoted.

Washington.—Emmanuel Waaserffian, a retail meat dealer in Norfolk, Va., exposed to the Senate Agricultural Committee how profiteering is carried on by a number of meat dealers. Meat from good steers Is better than that from thin steers or cows, Mr. Wasserman said. Meaf from corn-fed steers hi better than meat from grass-fed steers. An expert meat buyer can tell the difference between meats merely by looking at them, he said. But the novice can not A profiteer, Mr. Wasserman said, buys the cheaper kind of beef, the cow meat and the thin steer meat, cuts it up, and sells the various cute, such as sirloin, prime roast and tenderloin, at the same price as the non-profiteering meat dealer sells the cute from bet ter beef, though the poorer grades do not cost the retailer as much as the better grades. For example, the non-profiteer buys good carcasses at 23 cents a pound, while the profiteer buys the poorer grades at 16 cents a pound. The non-profiteer adds 25 per cent of the cost price to get a selling price, so his selling price averages 30 cents a pound, giving him a profit of six cents. Too profiteer sells for 30 j^ents, giving him 14 cents profit a pound, or nearly 50 per cent. V. GOVERNMENT CONTROLS SUGAR Profiteers to Be Prosecuted—Retail Price 8et At 11 Cents.

"You seem to have a habit of forgetting him." "Your grandfather," he said in the same quiet tone, "is not the man to protect you now, for three very good reasons: He Is too near the border and too rich to go unmolested by the rebel bands, who have already made more than one raid Into American territory under cover of bight seeking a hold somewhere and being mocked by the smooth adobe walL Teresa da la Guerra, alarmed, was upon her feet protesting.

I must go now. Buenaa noches, Senor Billy." It was softly said, and there was the caress of the soft southern speech. "I am coming, too," he called ap to her. And she knew that he meant what he said. "I shall come around to the patio and so to the front door. I am going to talk with your grandfather tonight, Teresa mine!" A laugh floated out and down to him, a rose fen, striking against his cheek, there was the glimmer and flutter of a mantilla among the vines, and the girl had stepped hack through the window, closing it behind her. She stood a moment, hesitant, her cheek a little pale. Then the thought that even now Stan way was on his way around the great house to the patio drove her in haste first to her mirror and the rearranging of her hair the rose vine had disturbed, then to a quick descent of the broad stairway to the main floor. The utter stillness of the drawing room smote her as she entered. The candles were like shimmering ghosts. De la Guerra was not in the room. Immediately she was dimly conscious of an unreasonable sense of uneasiness, even before she had the vaguest reason for it. And then the reason asserted Itself. A chair laid overthrown, a little way from the chair a rug was crumpled and thrown back, the Ink bottle which had been upon the table lay upon the floor. As her eyes say, her brain understood. And as she stared, before her voice had found Its way to her lips, she heard a sharp knocking at the front door. She ran to It swiftly, threw It wide and whispered fearfully: "Senor Billy, I am frightened. Look!" He looked the way her pointing finger went, a moment In frowning fail- Be managed to stead between the girl and the dark smear, "Get Pedro," he commanded sharply. "Have him call the servants, the vaqueros, every man of them. Have them come armed." The girl turned and ran swiftly through the great rooms, down the long hallway to do his bidding, a sharp fear clutching her heart. Stanway, when she had gone, stepped quickly across the room, snatched up a rug there and threw It down upon the carpet, covering the dark spot near the bottle. Then he stood still, waiting. As he waited there came to him from the silence without a faint drumming sound, the noise of horses' hoofs in a mad tattoo of flight through the night •The rebels," he muttered angrily. "They are taking what is left of him back across the border." He ran to the window. The curtain there was torn. Moonlight and candle light showed him where wood and plaster were scratched as in a hurried exit Then Teresa had come back to him, her great eyes wide with alarm, and the servants were already trooping in. sleepy-eyed and mystified. .-.z. ^ r ^ f c ^ - ^ ^ CHAPTER 111.

Their master was not here; their young mistress* eyes were turned with intent eagerness upon the young American owner of the Painted Bock ranch, and so the servants, each of them, turned to Stanway expectantly. Stanway waited &i silence a moment until a new set of faces in the doorway, darker, sun-kissed/ bearded faces, told him tha,t the vaqueros had risen to Pedro's clamorous call. Then he spoke to them all. swiftly, with rising emphafte, calling upon them by name, addressing them in mixed Spanish and English, taking the word which carae first to him that they would grasp.

At least there are no complaints on this account—siace the removal of government restrictions—emo&f those who have learned how-t* hey *c*L The way to buy ooal is to get it direct from the mines. This saves several middlemen's profits. It saves hauling expenses. Anyone can now buy at mine prices, whether a carload buyer or one who uses only ten or fifteen tons a "year. This has been made possible through a plan evolved by a large and oldestablished concern, THE - BEEN1CE COAL COMPANY, with main offices at 835 So. Dearborn St., Chicago. This company has thousands of customers in various sections of the United States who receive all of their coal direct from the mines. These customers are pleased not only because of the many dollars they save every year, but also because of the quality of coal they are getting. Many write that they never before had coal that makes so little dust, that burns so well, leaving so few aihes. If you are a coal user—whether you use hard or soft coal, much or little—it will be greatly to your advantage to write the Bernice Coal Co. at once for prices, stating kind and quantity of coal you use.

Revenge of a Reporter. Doctor Gore, the retired bishop of Oxford, has been one of the numerous British victims of the American reporter. During a visit to the American Episcopal church some years ago, he was besieged in a "city" of the wild West by a horde of copy-hunting pressmen, who demnnded his views of various topical subjects, but he declined to be drawn. The next morning a purely fictitious interview appeared In a local paper giving at great length startling opinions he was alleged to hold on various topics, Including some highly spiced personal criticisms on local politicians opposed to the paper.

Crystal gazing and the use of magic mirrors played an important part In religion and wizardry in the past, and though almost every nation had its own method these did not vary as much as it would be supposed. Thus while Japan had in her inner temples mirrors which only the priest saw, and which were always to reflect the good and the beautiful for the gods, the ancient Mexicans taught that their god Texcatllpuco had a magic mirror in which he saw everything that happened each day in the world.

The president so wrote Senator tfall In answer to one of the 20 written questions the senator presented at the White House conference Tuesday. Replying, to another question, the president said the provision of the treaty that it should come into force after ratification by Germany and three of the principal associated powers operated merely to establish peace between those ratifying powers, and that It was "questionable whether it can be said that the League of Nation)? ia in any true sense created by the association of only three of the allied and associated governments." To Senator Fall's questions relating to the disposition of Germany's possessions, the "president said the arrangement in the treaty conveyed no title to the allied or associated powers, but merely "intrusts disposition of the territory in question to their decision," "Germany's renunciation In favor of the principal allied and associated powers," the president continued, "of her rights and titles to her overseas .--.. .. - „ - . \ i j i V.1 i ; i ii m ..id « ii^hi iT nfcli • ii'rt-I rr.iV i • ' • " - ' i ~ i ' •' n • i i i i" trim -'-;-' -^ J, ,,- of peace and dissociate ourselves* from all responsibility with regard to those terms.

WARD From the birth of the Republican party in 1864 until 1912, there were but two breaks in the long line of republican governors of Michigan—Begole, greenback-fusion, in 1882, and Winans, Democrat in 1890. Now it may be over the destinies of the state, be interesting to hark back through the years and inquire the manner of man whose personality won the one democratic victory of half a century. It is the notion of the writer t! at efficient service in exalted anl responsible public office is not the result of momentary inspiration or blind adherence to dogma, but rathef to a deep and broad training in the ways of men and a large experience in affairs.

ALMOST A FORTY-NINER It was the intention of Winans to er.- ter the profession of the law with Pond but the lure of the gold-fields of California caught him and in 1850 he started overland from Hamburg with a team and two companions. Disaster overtook the expedition near St. Louis, Mo. One horse belonging to the outfit was killed and the wagon ruined. The members of the outfit divided the remaining effects and Winans pursued his way on foot across the great plains and over the mountains to California, carrying his possessions on his back. There he was more nuccessful and i perhaps more saving than the average ' ^oldseeker. At the end of eight years i he had accumulated a few thousand 4 dollars which he invested in a private 4 J)t>nking business. Meanwhile he had1 £•" ness of farming in earnest.

POPULAR SENTIMENT STRONG Great Help the French People Gave the Colonies la Not Forgotten— Ambaaaador Jueterand Prove* That It Was Not 8elfteh. By EDWARD B. CLARK. Washington.—Senators may doubt their authority under, the Constitution to ratify the French treaty, and they may not ratify it, but lacking Ratification, the mind of the opposition apparently is In favor of doing something equally strong and comprehensive in behalf of France. It Is known that some of the senators, and perhaps what is known of them is true of the majority* feel There is a sentiment in behalf of France and its cause among the people of the United States that will necessitate some adequate recognition of the French people's need, for that is what it is, for protection against the German when he shall have rehabilitated himself, and the old spirit of hatred against his neighbor to the west shall have reasserted itself. Common political sense if not gratitude, observers say, probably will dictate a response to the request embodied In the treaty; war-time period fast are leavin*. Thousands of men who wore the bars, tho leaves or the eagles on their shoulders for a long enough time to help thrash the enemy, are going back into -civil life, but there is a goodly number of them left yet, for whom the knot still Is to be revered. There was a large number of book, magazine and newspaper writers in the United State* army. They Old all kinds of work for which their training: fitted them. Some of them were In the intelligence service, some of them in the war history division, and many more of them, who took camp training, were in combatant units. In one little group in the army Intelligence service, working side by side day after day, until orders sent them elsewhere, were several men whose names are. known to the public as writers. Rupert Hughes, the novelist and playwright, was one of this group. With him was Kenneth L. Roberts, story writer, playwright and voluminous contributor to "Life." Others in the group were Richard Aldrlch, who has written standard books on grand opera and is the music critic of the New York Times; Arthur Somers Roche, the novelist, son of James Jeffrey Roche, the poet, and several other writers of less prominence and less merit, among whom I put my name. Novel Writers and Good Fellows. Now it happened that the least of these was the ranking officer, so in a way while he did not attempt to exercise authority, for it was not necessary, he learned much of those with whom he was associated. People know Rupert Hughes through his stories. They ought to know him through personal acquaintance, for he is a man of the rarest charm. It was Hughes' great disappointment in life that he could not go to prance to serve in a combat unit.

Debt Rests on Later Comers, Too. N'o one knows just what proportion of Americans can trace their ancestry back to revolutionary or pre-revolutionary days, but It is probable that much more than one-half of the citizens of the United States date the arrival of their ancestors at a time later than the battle of Yorktown. It is likely to be brought out in debate in the senate in order to make popular sentiment approve- of ft -probable affirmative action of some kind in thU case, that if It had not been for French help in the revolutionary war there would have been no free country in America for the ancestors of many American citizens to have come to in the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.

In other words, the argument is that France was essentially selfish. It is not known to what extent the ambassador of the French to this country, J. J. Jusserand, can enter into activities in behalf of a treaty* in which his country's future safety is said to be involved, but already Mr. Jusserand in a book written before the present war tortured the world has given an explanation of the reasons for French aid to the colonies which may be enlightening In the present treaty making. Why France Aided Colonies. The ambassador in a volume containing articles on Rochambeau in America; L'Enfant, the French engineer who planned the city of Washington ; Lafayette, and on some other Frenchmen as well as some Americans, went deeply into the reasons for French aid to the colonies. He tells also of p re-revolutionary days in France, of the growing love for liberty In France, of the sympathies among the people for another people who were struggling for something which the French had not yet been able to obtain for themselves, and of what be holds to be the undoubted fact that It was the democratic spirit of France, rousing into life, that led to the fitting out of the expeditions, military and naval, which came to the aid of the American colonists. u * K < J ~ » * i, V « j n, congressmen ' think, will be the best way out of the controversy over what * honors .should be shown the chief of staff. It is likely that so far as the other general officers are concerned, I they will take their former rank in the regular army, but will be given as quick promotion as the law allows. It should be remembered that the president of the United States, whenever there is a vacancy In the ranks of the brigadier or major generals of regulars, can promote thereto any soldier that he sees fit. This probablv^** will secure something coramensurartr with their deeds for Liggett, Bullard, Dlckman and some others. Maj. Gen. Joseph T, Dickman has just been in Washington receiving his final orders in connection with his assignment to command the Southern division with headquarters at San Antonio. It is the intention, so It is understood, to make Dickman a major general in the regular army shortly. Peculiar Case of Dickman. For a short time at the very end of the war I was attached to General Dlckroan's command, personally attached to the general, in fact, when he was in command of the First corps. There have been some curious things in the promotion way and, so to speak, in the command way in this war. When Liggett ana Bullard were made corps commanders they were given corresponding ranks of lieutenant general, and properly so. Later they were promoted to the command of armies which, under ordinary procedure would have given them the rank of general. T n » was not done.

He found his own horse, a tall, restive sorrel, swung into the saddle, catled sharply to Gauche, and then realized suddenly that something was keeping the men at the corral gate, that their voices weee raised excitedly. Giving his mount the spur he dashed down to them. "Que es?" he called, half angry at the momentary delay. "What is it, Gaucho?" "I'll answer for Gaucho," came a deep, sonorous voice, unmistakably southern in accent. "It is I, senor." "And you," snapped Stanway. "Who . the devil are you?" "One who is not accustomed to being addressed as If he were a mestizo," with a certain haughtiness which rode well upon the deep music of the voice. "Senor Don Eduardo Ramon Torre, at your service, senor!" "Oh, h—1," grunted the American under his breath. And then, riding into the heart of the excited group, reining in his sorrel close to a deepchested black animal.

Moon paled, stars died, the east flushed to the coming of the sun before they turned back from a fruitless quest, riding again close together toward the north. Stanway and Gaucho had kept upon the trail through the fields, the others spreading out to east and west as they rode that there might be no chance of missing the party they sought in the night But in an hour they had come into a country where all tracks were mingled with the hoof marks of cattle and vaqueros* ponies, and their trail was smothered and lost. Shortly before midnight they had come upon three men, ragged, uglylooking Mexicans, sleeping about a camp fire which was fast dying. The men knew nothing or professed at ignorance, Stanway could not tell which. After that nothing, although they had pushed many miles Into the Mexican country until they realized the utter uselessness of riding farther.

In the imagination of easterners, says the analyst In effect, a plantation or a ranch suggests wide acres and a gentleman on horseback riding about to oversee their cultivation by picturesque hirelings, whereas a farm suggests a comparatively small field of growing vegetables personally conducted to harvest by a plain man in overalls. Yet many a ranch or plantation is no bigger than a small farm, and mnny a large farm is as big aw a corresponding plantation or ranch; nnd the word "gentleman" fits as many farmers as ranchers or planters. The farm, however, says this observer, may easily get into society by being spoken of In the plural; and all the farmer needs to do to attain this distinction is to build a fence across his land and then lABOR LOOKS CUT IN FOOD COST INDUSTRIAL PEACE DEPENDS ON SUCCES3 OF WAR AGAINST HIGH PRICES.

Washington—Industrial peace in the United States depends to a great extent on the results the government can show in the next 90 days in its campaign to reduce the cost of living. That time limit was tacitly set last week by the executive council of the railroad shop crafts, in suggesting to onion locals throughout the country that President Wilson's compromise offer in response to their demand for higher wages should be accepted, pending the outcome of the effort to restore a normal price level. If the cost of living does not come down, the 500,000 members of the shop crafts would reserve the right to strike for money, and with them probably would be associated the remainder of the 2,500,000 railroad employes. *»*»r*.vr* sjja£i r :¾ that tney nave maea mc 6«N>V* ~~~-- from you, remember that we are leaving the senorita in your protection."

The doors closed behind them, and Teresa turned her great eyes, full of dread and suffering, upon Stanway. ^You saw it before?" J He nodded. "Yon think that they have—killed him?" "No," he cried, more assurance in his voice than In his heart "It means nothing if there is a little blood after men have struggled as they must have fought here.

Then, walking slowly now, loath to greet Teresa de la Guerra with news of their failure.Ae came Into the patio. She was there waiting for him. —"Nothing," -he blurted out. "We have found nothing." "I know," she said quietly. She came toward him, putting out her hands. "You have been good to us, Senor Billy." He laughed a bit awkwardly. "I don't know how," he retorted. "1 have done nothing. You have not been molested here?" She hesitated. He saw a quick frown gather her brows. Then, speaking lightly, she replied, saying: "No. But come; you must be hungry and tired out. Coffee is ready," He went with her to the broad-open doors. "Torre is here?** he asked, his eyes intent upon her face. The frown came again, and was gone quickly.

There are several processes for silvering mirrors, the simplest of which, perhaps, Is to provide a large fiat stone table and spread upon it evenly a sheet of tinfoil without crease or blemish. This is covered uniformly to. a depth of one-eighth inch with mercury. The plate of glass, perfectly cleansed of all grease and impurities, is floated in the mercury carefully so as to exclude air bubbles. It is then pressed down by loading with weights in order to press out the mercury which remains fluid. After about 24 hours it may be raised on its edge to harden, and should be finished in a few weeks. Another method involves the use of a solution made as follows: Mix one ounce nitrate of silver, three ounces water, one ounce liquid ammonia and three ounces spirits of wine. Filter after solution has stood three or four hours. To every ounce of the solution add one-fourth ounce sugar dissolved In equal quantities of water and alcohol. The surface to be silvered 1» covered with this liquid at a temperatnre of 160 degrees, maintained till Witnesses Testify Price Has Been Cut But Retailer Absorbs Profit with mastic varnish. Lansing.—Evidence that the reduction of wholesale prices is not reflected in the retail market has been broughT out in the food cost^eaTtntr before Judge Wiest here. If evidence is accepted at its face value retailers have maintained their high prices irrespective of the fact that they have been able at frequent periods to buy at substantial redactions in the wholesale market. Harry A. Tiramina, secretary of Morris & Co., one of the "Big Five," testified that although the wholesale price of dressed beef of a certain grade in May waji 21 cents a pound, it had varied so that for three and a half months previous it had averaged only 17 1-2 cents a pound and on August 9 it was actually down to 14 1-2 cents. Another witness, H. R. Chapman, district manager of Armour & Co., quoted wholesale prices showing varia* tj^na at different periods running from - r . ~ T r j It V "1 Shall Remain Here," there was a long cut which might have been made by a grazing ballet "Small reason we should loiter here," he said quickly. "What way did they go, Torre?" "South, naturally, senor," replied Torre evenly. "Gaucho!" cried Stanway then. "Scatter your men out as we ride so that we make t line a mile long when we come to the hills just across the line. Let them keep a sharp lookout and fire if they see the rebels. We must not get too far apart or we shall not be able to do anything. How many of them were there, Torre?" "I forgot to count, senor. I should say, fifty, perhaps." "We are twenty. That is Annnyh You are not coming with us?" "I think n o t Why, with so competent a leader as you, should I come also? No. I think," and he turned his horse toward the white walls of the hacienda, "that I shall remain here with my kinswoman. There may be a second attack upon the rancho. Good hunting, senor." He turned hit horse, and, sitting easily, gracefully in the deep **f*1i*tn saddle, rode away through the moottvlight Stanway. frowning after the retreating form, hesitated a moment Than, calling sharply to Gaucho Horales, he gave hit horse the spur and turned southward. "You understand what were doing, Otmcaar he tasd sternly. *W#*rt at It is only his beauty which it* harmed," she said swiftly. "Good morning, prima mla!" called a deep, laughing voice. "Ah, still with us, Senor Stanway?" - Torre, debonair in the dark, youthful beauty of him, greeted them at the doorway. "Certainly Senor Stanway is still with us," said Teresa coolly. "He is my guest my grandfather's friend, Senor Torre I" Torre laughed and lifted his shoulders. "Enter," he said with a gradousness which was in some strange way vaguely insulting; it was as though he were the master here, and because of his generosity not only Stanway but the girl as well were allowed upon the premises. Now It was Teresa who flashed. "Come, Senor Billy," she said quietly. "We are going to have coffee together." For the fraction of t second the two men stood fronting etch other, their level eyes filled with challenge, with a mistrust which Wat little lata than hatred. Then the Spaniard, bowing again, turned away, with a alight smile play* lng under the small, pointed mustache, and Stanway followed hit host ess.

CATARRHAL DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED by local applications, as they eannot reach t h e diseased portion of t h e e a r . There is only one way to cure c a t a r r h a l deafness, and t h a t is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the E u s t a c h i a n Tube. W h e n this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound o r imperfect hearing, and when it is entirly closed deafness is t h e result. Unless t h e inflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to i t s normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness a r e caused by c a t a r r h , which is an inflamed condition of t h e mucous surfaces. Hall's C a t a r r h Medicine acts thru t h e blood on t h e mucous surfaces of t h e system. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of C a t a r r h a l Deafness t h a t cannot be cured by H a l l ' s C a t a r r h Medicine. Circulars free. All druggists, 75c F. J .

No More Worries Over Coal Bill* It iirnot generally known that even the small coal consumer can have his coal shipped direct from the mines, thus saving the profits that otherwise would go to wholesaler and retail dealer, besides saving haulasg expense. Of course, big manufacturers and other large consumers have always bought this way, but the man who buys only enough for nig household is BOW in position to take advantage of the same purchasing privileges. The well-knows BERNICE COAL <X>., 836 South Dearborn St., Chicago, is doing an enormous business in supplying small consumers—as well as the big ones—with all grades of bard and soft coal at mine prises. That these austopsrs are highly pleased is evidenced by tfce letters they write after receiving and trying their coal. The following are extracts from several such letters: Have found your coal entirely satisfactory and your dealings courteous and fair. I shall continue to buy my coal from you."—Ed. G. Gereka, Burlington, Ia. ''More than pleased with it. Please quote me prices on same coal for December."— Arthur Churchman! Alexandria, Ind. "Well pleased with It. Expect to tray more from you."—Fritz Bros., Pompeii, Mich. "Coal arrived on time; has given entire satisfaction; am exceedingly well pleased. Wish to thank you for your courteous treatment in our dealings."—M. B. Ford, Franklin, Ky. Adv. Hard to Guess Why.

The basements are usually from 8 to 12 feet deep, and most of them have a capacity of several thousand barrels. Generally the only provision for ventilation Is by trapdoors in the floor through which the filling of the bins is completed. Occasionally a ventilator is found In the roof. These houses, although practical in Maine, will never supersede the dug* out pit or storage cellar now used In the middle and far western states.

Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease. If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased. You may suffer pain in the back, headache and loss of ambition. Poor health makes you nervous, irritable and may be despondent; it makes any one so. But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions.

My back began to acne and got sore and lame. Mr joints and ankles became swollen and painful and it felt as if -^ needles were sticking into them. I finally had to rive tip and went from bad to worse. "My kidneys <lidn't act right and the secretions were scanty and distressing. I had awful diaty spells when everything before me turned black; one time I couldn't see for twenty minutes. Awful pains in my head set me almost frantic and I was so nervous, I couldn't stand the least noise. How I suffered! Often I didn't care whether I lived or died. "I couldn't sleep on account of the terrible pains in my back and head. Nothing seemed to do me a bit of good until I began using Doon'i Kidney Pill*. I could soon see they were helping me; the backache stopped, my kidneyf were regulated and I no longer had any dizzy spells or rheumatic pains. I still take DoarC* occasionally and they keep my kidneys in good health." kmor% to before me, JT. W, CA88IDT, / A , Notary PubUo. CCW.WiTALQ»M.T.[ The trip, perhaps the most arduous ever undertaken by a president, will carry Mr. Wilson and his party as tar west as the Pacific coast, almost to the Canadian border on the north and almost to Mexico, on the south. rne presidents reception in all tho cities he has thus far visited has been enthusiastic, packed audiences being present at all the meetings. The gist of Mr. Wilson's speeches is that it is necessary that America accept the peace treaty without amendments and a plea for the adoption of the league pact. He stated although he did not believe the League of Nations would make all wars impossible, but that he expected it to make war "violently improbable." The economic and arbitration sections of the covenant, he asserted, would "keep war on the outskirts" and make It only a "last resort." The president said the American delegates had gone to Paris with a definite errand and had accomplished it. He made a plea for acceptance of the treaty because he said it gave a p^^- rtatfnrm for world affairs. tions, he said, had discuised duly three out of 26 articles of th« covenwtr improbable--had been overlooked. He then called on opponents of the league to present a "better program" for peace. President Wilson declared "it is a case of put up or shut up." The president said his speaking trip was partly to point out how "absolutely ignorant" of the contents of the covenant some of those were who opposed the league. "This league," he said, "Is the only conceivable arrangement which will prevent our sending our men abroad again very soon." The president expects to be back in Washington September 30.

He began the battle of life among them. The older men took the hard knocks of pioneer days with him shoulder to shoulder. Many of them he walloped soundly in his school teaching days. But the force of character and directness of purpose that won for Winans wealth and position did not impair the frank intimacy of his relations with earlier friends and associates. He was always Ed Winans to the people of Livingston county. H E L P E D HIS N E I G H B O R S Remembering his own early trials Winans was always lending a helping hand to less fortunate farmers in hit vicinity.

St. Louis, Sept. 13.—Introduced by Dr. Johe H. Simon, former Democratic candidate for mayor, to one of the largest audiences that ever filled the Coliseum, Senator Hiram Johnson of California pounded home argument after argument against the League of Nations until the vast assemblage was brought to Its feet cheering-time and again. Speaking from the same platform where a week ago President Wilson hurled the epithet of "quitters" at his opponents, Senator Johnson termed the president a dictator who had "arrogated to himself the right to dispose of our blood through secrecy," and pictured the proposed covenants a patchwork of secret treaties entered into tcrod the wnr, Speaks to Indiana Audience. Indianapolis, Sept. 12.—Undeniably the people of Indianapolis are concerned over the arguments for and against ratification of the League of Nations covenant. When President Wilson spoke here last Friday he contributed to that concern by assuring his audience that .the high cost of living would be reduced through Immediate acceptance of the covenant «a»B~sii*t2~.*r.: « * ^ P * * *•*'**>***>* V9i*J '*'*.>.*>c ~.7'f--^??;xzz^xi--* :>.*<.-_ and praying, toot, my friends, that when he reaches that state, the balmy breezes of the Pacific and the salubrious climate of California will soothe his perturbed spirit and assuage Ms anguished souL "Now, my friends, we will let him use denunciation and abuse. Thank God, the American causa I preach needs only the expression of the truth. As to Contemptible Quitters. "The other day at St Louis, la a frenzy of auger, Mr. Wilson said, 'Let them show how they will prove that, having gone Into an enterprise, they are not absolutely contemptible quitters if they do not see the game through.' Whut game, my friends 1 Your game? The game of the American people? Not at all "The American people play their game. They played It when they sent their sons abroad to the numDer of' 2,000.000 and these boys valiantly upheld the traditions and honor of this countrv. 'That was the American people's game, but It is not the American people's game to safeguard the territorial acquisitions of England or of France or of Italy or of Japan. And that is the ,game that Mr. Wilson speaks of and that Mr. Wilson plays today. "Now, the American people never have been quitters. They never have in any contest, either in their own behalf or in the behalf of humanity quit the game. They have ever seen It through. Mr. Wilson began his game at Paris, and let's see who quit in that game and who It was that forgot the American rule. "You remember, Just as I did, that he had certain celestial phrases, certain Idealistic statements and certain specified principles upon which he went across the water to play his game, and, my friends, I might say to you something that we learned long, long ago In the West. In our unregenerated day, before we were as civilised as you are here In this great state, there was a saying that ripened Into a proverb: 'Never sit In the other fellow's game.' The trouble with Mr. Wilson Is that he has been sitting In the other fellow's game. And he got there just exactly what a man always J*£_t£L3&llQJ!itR :J^ c a package before the war c a package during the war c a package NOW THE FLAVOR LASTS SO DOES THE PRICE! v*.-Wr> > * T « - ^ > * - •*"*-'* :¾¾¾¾ X'L weidi ruH&H mi muuet i ai t* fe Father's Little Joke.

Senator Hiram Johnson of California, delivering his second address on his speaking campaign in behalf of the senate reservatlonists, obtained from his audience definitely expressed agreement when he declared ; "If any single individual can be charged with the a4gb-cost «f living, that man is Woodrow Wilson." The senator devoted a large share of his speech to answering the president's charge that delay In ratification was sustaining the living cost. "He taxes the two months that the league and treaty have been before the American people and senate with the high cost of living," Senator Johnson said. "But he conveniently forgets the eight months he spent abroad, secretly pledging our resources and our man power to European and Asiatic governments, The living cost In December and January last were substantially the same as they are today. But he had neither the time nor inclination to deal with the problem then. "But now the president would frighten us Into Immediate ratiflca- . • • " • » . $ . T - With your fingers!

Senator McCormick received cheers when he declared that while "the chief spokesman for America stood there (at the peace conference), his gaze enraptured by the sight, Lloyd George sat down in the cockpit and wrote the League of Nations." Senator Johnson declared that when the treaty finally did reach the senate «t was found not to be a "document responding to the idealistic phrases and altruistic doctrines," but "an instrument that spends our treasure and our blood for the maintenance of the British empire and the Japanese empire." Californlan Is Sarcastic. "I have followed, just as you havs doubtless followed," Mr. Johnson said, "the utterances of the president in his recent speaking tour. I read his opening sentence delivered at the city of Columbus when he said that be chafed at the confinement for so long a time at Washington. I felt, as I read that sentence, Just as you doubtless feci, wholly sympathetic for his enforced idleness in the rigors of the White House. "I felt Just as you doubtless felt, that the confinement In Washington, of which he complained, for a few days over a month had torn his soul and made his spirit rebel at the restraint put upon it. But I observed, my friends, that he is going to a state I am reasonably familiar with, and In which I waa born, and I am hoping open covenants of peace openly "arrived at. You and I echoed the sentiment. Alf America applauded. Ifflho quit. Who was the quitter? "We indorsed vociferously the freedom of the seas and the British lion growled. Who quit? "He talked, my friends, of adequate guarantees given and that armaments would be reduced. No armaments were ended. None will be reduced, ndmittedly, under the League of Nations. Somebody quit upon the reduction of armaments. "He spoke of a free, open minded, and absolutely impartial adjustment of all colonial states, and we all nodded In acquiescence. But there was nothing of that sort done. The American people didn't quit. Somebody else did. Self.Determination Forgotten. "He told us of the destruction of every arbitrary power that can separately and securely disturb the peace of the world. He never mentioned It again in Paris. The American people didn't quit.

The 'American people didn't quit. Who quit? "He said there can be no league or alliance or special covenants and understandings within the general and common family of the League of Nations, and then Clemenceau made a grimace and then we bad an offensive and defensive alliance with France brought to us. The American people didn't quit because they were behind him In his statement Somebody else was the quitter. "He said to us as he went abroad that no people can be forced to live under a sovereignty under which It does not wish to live. But Japan, with an immobile countenance, shook her head and the American people didn't quit but somebody else Quit" Picking Pockets to Poison Mind. Senator Borah declared the people's taxes during the last few years had been spent on propaganda dedicated to tell lug them how powerful the peo- | pie In power have been. "We have been picking our pockets,** be said, "to poison our minds.** Senator Borah opened his speech by saying he would attempt to discuss the question, as broadly as "a man can do who has a pigmy mind. "Now, our honored president has said in his appeal at Columbus, O* that if you have not time to read the treaty for yourselves, that he feels that yen are wnder obligation to take the view and construction of those who wrote the treaty,'* Senator Borah continued.

He thereupon tigna a new will, without reading It. While this la going on hif adorable granddaughter and helreai, Senorita Teresa, is out on her rose-covered balcony listening to American love-making from Billy Stanway, owner of the Painted Rock ranch. Teresa goes to Join her grandfather and finds htm gone, with the drawing room in disorder and blood on the floor. The American takes command of the situation. Senor Eduardo Ramon Torre, a hated kinsman, arrives. Stanway and the De la Querra ranch hands return from vain pursuit of the bandits. The new will disinherits Teresa *nd makes Torre sole heir. Captain Juarez, nominally representing the bandits, appears and demands $20,000 raneora for De la Guerra. Torre, «» beJr, assumes control. CHAPTER V—Continued. "Unfortunately, in answering his summons to the rancho, I came too late for him to make me cognizant of the hiding place. Perhaps you, ever really purposed disinheriting the girl who was dearer to him than daughters to most men—and yet what to do? Suddenly Stanway bent forward, whispering swiftly, guardedly, to the girl. And then, after Stanway had finished and stood erect again, looking down upon her, as Torre watched, his eyes narrowing suspiciously, her hand clenched, her chin squared, determination came into* her mien and voice. "It is a chance, senor,* she said. She rose and stood looking at him steadily, still ignoring Torre. "It Is a game of dice with our destinies." "And you will play it, senorita V eagerly from the American. She made a little gesture as though she were handing something to him. "I place the dicebox in your hands. May 1, Senor Billy?" "Then," cried Stanway, "we must waste no time! Call Pedro." She rang. Torre, still watching suspiciously, made no comment. Pedro came In his swift, silent fashion. "Send word to Gaucho to come to the house immediately," Stanway told him. "Let him bring three men with him. Let them come armed. And see that Captain Juarez does not leave r comet back to us, will have you to thank as much as anyone. Now, will you ask your senorita to come to the library? And then will you see that Vldal brings the lawyer thereY* Pedro went about bis errand, and Stanway, dressing swiftly, went to the library, which he had chosen because it was at one end of the bouse, and so a place in which to converse without fear of being overheard by Torre or the captain. Vidal was there before him, a big man with a beautiful body and a scarred, ugly face. And with him, looking grotesquely small, pitifully Inefficient In the presence of his guard, was Dempton. "Mr. Stanway, sir." The lawyer was upon his feet in an Instant, his face red with anger, his speech seeming to froth up in a stream of barely articulated words from between his writhing lips. "Are you one of this damnable conspiracy, sir? It is brigandage; it is outlawry; It is sheer defiance of every statute—" "Good afternoon, Mr. Dempton/* said the rancher pleasantly. "There Is no conspiracy on our part We merely wish to ask you a few questions, even to give you a chance to get out of this mess skin-whole. Sit down. The senorita will be here in a moment." The door opened and Teresa came In. She nodded brightly at Stanway, bestowed a look upon Vldal which plunged him into an ecstasy of delight, and with no word to Dempton went to Stanway's side. "Have I kept you waiting?" she asked. "No. I came in Just a second before you." He drew out a chair for her and turned to Vldal. "Vldal, we have a few words to say to Mr. Dempton. Will you wait in the patio? I shall call you when we want you." "Dempton," Stanway went on, "what passed between you and the Senor de la Gnerra last night?" "He sent for me to make a change In his will," said Dempton glibly. "He gave no reasons for what he was doing, although he must have noted my surprise." "Did you know that he has been engaged during several years <m his . , 7%^ . . . , . 1 . . . . ^ 1 ^ . . . „„'.,.,;? .• « - c i „ mernoirs?" I Inst, siirh nnesrforts ns that, looked A* forjlfr.

"Now," went on Stanley, without waiting for an answer, "how much money did Torre pay you for your part?" Again Dempton had leaped to his feet, his face flushed, his eyes ablaze. "You mean to insinuate—" "Sit down!" Stanway caught him by the shoulders and drove him bade into his chair. "Did yon know that after you had gone and before he was spirited away Senor de la Guerra added certain notes to his memoirs?" "What are you driving at?" fumed Dempton. Stanway stepped to the door. "Vldal." he called, "Mr. Dempton will remain here In the library. You will see that he does not grow lonesome? Bueno." He came back to Dempton's side and added quietly: "I am driving at this: the senor made certain observations upon the character of Americanos. He mentioned the fact ihat a certain man had just come and gone whom he did not trust; he stated why that man had come; he mentioned a flaw that that man had pretended to find— Ah!" as a look of sudden understanding and a quick fear with it leaped into Dempton's small eyes. "Now you see? Shall we leave them, senorita?" Teresa stepped through the door, Stanway following and closing it after them. "We'll have him scared out of his life In no time," he chuckled. "By tomorrow morning he'll be ready to tell everything he knows If we'll just promise him twenty-four hours to dig out In." "You are very wonderful, Senor Billy!" The look she flashed him was unmistakably full of gratitude; and his leaping hope sought to read something else in I t "Teresita in be "'hls»e-*> I. But she had slipped from h*m, laughing, and a lacy mantilla was la his hands, and from the far side *t the room, as she whisked Into the hall* way, she wafted hlra a kiss from bei pink finger tips.

Stanway looked questlonlngly at the grrl "Prima mia," began Torre. The girl whirled upon him, her eyes flashing. "Senor Torre," she cried passionately, "you make It necessary for me to remind you that our relationship Is not of my choosing, and that we are not close enough for you to call me cousin!

"Pedro," she said then, "tell Captain Juarez that we are considering his proposition. Tell him further that we wish to be certain that he really comes from the senor." Pedro bowed, withdrew, and returned almost immediately, his face strangely white, his hand shaking as he held out something to the girL "It i s the master's ring," he said, deeply agitated. "The ring he wore always upon bis left hand.' Senorita, senorita," his voice choking, his eyes glistening, "you will not let them kill h i m r "No, Pedro." She took the ring, her own eyes shining. "If harm comes to him, Pedro," she went on steadily, "we shall know what to do. shall we n o t r Pedro made no spoken answer.

She ignored Torre entirely. *q am afraid that Captain Jnares speaks the truth." Stanway stood with drawn brows, staring at the floor.

Did you ever hear of a man wearing a necklace? Well, that is what the male Canadian warbler does, while on the female of this attractive bird there is only the slightest indication of a necklace, says the American Forestry association, Washington, which is conducting the nation-wide birdbouse building contest among school children. The warbler's necklace of black spots shows up very strikingly on his olive green and yellowish throat and breast.

This scarcity of animals, I would remark, is not peculiar to the American wilderness. The same fact has been observed In extensive forests both in Europe and Asia; and in proportion as the traveler penetrates into their Interiors he finds a smaller number of animals of almost every species. Birds, Insects and* quadrupeds will mumpiy in a certain ratio with the progress of agriculture, so long as there remains a sufficiency of wild wood to afford them a refuge and a home. They use the forest chiefly for shelter, and the open grounds for forage; the woods are their house, the meadows their farm.— Wilson Flagg, in "Woods and By-Waya of New England." »*— When paddllng^hls canoe through l a k e | " f rt° *>Hv* htv^u-itfots. -'Fiiials n v*t$ cr^.vn^^g-^-T^.i'Ji'tvj yvi uu.

Representative Steenerson of Minnesota, ranking Republican member of the house post office committee, predicted "Yes," if the progress now being made in wireless communication continues. Mr. Steenerson, a s quoted In The Wireless Age, says: "Radio communication Is the coming thing. It is making such rapid strides that before the end of the year the average American will not be bothering much about the transmission of an ordinary message over an ordinary telegraph or telephone wire or as to whether the ordinary telephone or telegraph wire is owned or controlled by government or privste Interests.** I2t Physicians' Oath.

P i t t s b u r g — T h e nation-wide strike in the steel industry finds both sides in the contest apparently prepared for the battle. William 2. Foster, secretary of t h e national committee for organizing iron and steel workers, late Sunday sent a telegram to Governor Sproul protesting " u n w a r r a n t e d a t t a c k s " by the s t a t e police on the strength of the clashes between m e m b e r s of the constabulary and iron and steel workers and sympathizers at North Clairton and Mc- Keesport. It was expected t h a t several hundred thousand men would heed the order to strike, although the e s t i m a t e s of the employers and union organizers varied. National l e a d e r s of labor unions involved have long prepared for the strike in the event they could not make a settlement. They say they a r e prepared for a bitter battle and would not have gone into it if they were not sure they could sustain the struggle. Large sums of money will be required to finance the strike. Confidence has been expressed that money wdl not be lacking Pittsburgh.— -'L'tibW ieauers, t n i e r u series of conferences last week, sent | a lettpr to President Wilson s t a t i n g , that the strike of steel workers, set for September 22, had to be called principally because of the uncompromising attitude of E.

One day's rest in seven. Abolition of the 24-hour shift. Increase in wages sufficient to guarantee American standard of living. Standard scales of wages in all trades and classifications of workers.

I had to be helped out of bed mornings, the pains across my kidneys were so bad and nobody knoyfa the agony 1 went through.

MANKIND'S DEBT TO THE DOG Poaaibly Few Realize How Much the "Nobler Animal" Owes to His Faithful Servitor. Good Reason for Leaving. "Have you had any experience In newspaper work?" said the editor of a large paper to an agitated little man! who had applied for a job. "I should just think so. I was editor of the Muddlesbury Mail ftntil yesterday." "And what made you leave the paper?" "Well, it was like this: The chief of police down our wny was supposed to be a dangerous man with a revolver, and so I tried to keep tlie ri^lit .^idc of him. I wrote a paragraph about him, and said he was Muddlesbury's greatest assi'i. The intelligent compositor, of course, left out the 'of in 'asset,' and that is how it got Luto the paper." We have been accustomed lately to think of dogs, as alsty most other things, In terms of war; Tiut our debt to the dog dates back to very many centuries before the black year of UU4. Dogs are our oldest friends of the^anlmul world, and It is believed that;, since the time man began to domesticate them, they have made more n pid strides in intelligence than we have ourselves. The day may dawn when we seek to preserve all living things through altruism, but that day Is long distant. A writer, In London Answers observes dogs have survived to the tune of over 175 different species, because they are useful. As shepherds, Scotch collies are cheaper and more effective than the average human being. Pointers and setters are used with the gun. Other varieties are employed as protectors and comrades; while the errands of mercy achieved hy St. Bernards are known to the world. A St. Bernard that died a few years njro won a medal for saving twenty-two lives. Hut vwien a dog ceases to he of use to ns it falls on evil days. The original hull dog was Invaluable to man In handling cattle. When fences were invented the bull dog began to decline, and the present day bull terrier, used as a pet, marks a phase that is very likely leading toward extinction.

STATE FOOD QUIZ CONTINUED FAMOUS BUILDERDF RAILROADS IS DEAD i — ——^ - Witnesses Who Suffered By Alleged Unfair Practices of Big Packers . Testify At Lansing. Lansing.—Alleged efforts of the big meat packers to drive independent operators out of the various Michigan .fields were revealed by witnesses in the state inquiry into profiteering, in session before Judge Howard Wlest of the circuit court here. Evidence given by men who had actually suffered from underselling and other methods of business, claimed to be unfair by the Chicagt; corporations, was designed to prove that the^e effcts had, in most cases, been entirely successful. The "Big Five" tactics followed, according to the testimony, two clearly defined lines. The first was the cutt. ng of prices ID the wholesale market to a point where the independents found It impossible to follow and continue in business, and the other was the flooding of specified markets in advance of expected shipments of beef and other meats by the local dealers with the intention of preventing the disposals of stocks by the latttf. The impression gained from the nvcital of th«se facts was r)>r»t such independent competition as exists now in the Michigan field is there on sufferance; that it could be wiped out of existence almost over-night by the use of the weapons said to have been use<f in the past by the Chicago packi^ mmmmmmmammtm UNUSUAL HAPPENINGS AND OTHER BBIE4F NEWS iMMtiiti>riwiiiiwMHif"uiiSMiiiiiiininiiintnNiniiiiiiiwtiniBn^ G o v e r n o r s F a v o r Budget S y s t e m .

He thereupon signs a new will, without reading It. In the meantime his J adorable granddaughter and heiress, Senorlta Teresa, is out on her rose-covered balcony, listening to American love-making from BlUy Stanway, owner of the Painted Rock ranch. Teresa, going to join her grandfather, finds him gone, with the drawing room in disorder and blood on the floor. The American takes command of the situation. Senor Eduardo Ramon Torre, a hated kinsman of the De la Guerras, arrives. Stanway and the De la Guerra ranch hands return from vain pursuit of the bandits. The new will disinherits Teresa and makes Torre sole heir. Captain Juarez, nominally representing the bandits, appears and demands $20,- 000 ransom for De la Guerra. Torre, as heir, tries to assume control and demands that Teresa produce the ransom. Stanway detains Torre and Juarez and his men kidnap Dempton and bring him to the ranch. Stanway demands a confession from the lawyer. them. "I shall have Dempton's con- tion, senor. You do not guess how fession within twenty-four hours!" embarrassing. And I am very modest- Torre shook his" head, smiling his In- ly asking merely twice my actual CHAPTER VII. —6— A Rat in a Trap? $5duanl»» Rmmrtf Torre, lounging before one of the deep windows of the drawing room, smoked his cigarettes and hummed gay snatches of song, evidently quite hnppy, seemingly unaware of the presence of Gaucho Morales rfhd a brother vaquero, who, on serutable smile "I have a counter-offer to make," said Torre. "Terestta Is to pay to Captain Juarez the money which he demands—twenty thousand dollars. Within twenty-four hours from the time that the money is paid her grandfather will walk Into this drawing room unharmed." "And If she refuses your offer?" "Then, twenty-four hours after her refusal, her grandfather will be dead. Then I shall be the heir to the entire property. You will accuse me of having murdered him, and I shall deny. It will go to the courts. In the end l shall be cleared. You see, senor, times are fortunately turbulent along the border, and what has happened may so easily be . laid at the door of the poor devils of insurrectos. You can create suspicion, you can make trouble. Rut then there Is the will, properly drawn and witnessed, and— there Is something else!" "And that?" curiously, wondering how far Torre would go in showing his hand. "There will be other witnesses of whom you do not guess yet—witnesses carefully selected, who will not be shaken iff a point they make. And they will swear that Senor de la Guerra became very angry with his granddaughter «]wm the very day »»i his disappearance; that he quarreled openly with h e r ; that he vowed ho would disinherit her, and that he sent Immediately for his lawyer to make the new will. Do you care, senor. to what those witnesses will prove needs. "True, there is more to gain by slitting the throat of my esteemed kinsman and inheriting the whole. You see, I don't mind speaking frankly, between friends. "But, on the other hand, the danger of which you speak would be much greater—and I need the money uow, not after the courts can have had time to haggle over the will for a year or two. So, senor, you have my offer. What do you say?" "I say," cried Stanway hotly, "that you are a scoundrel, and I believe only so much of what you say as I Judge wise. If Senor de la Guerra dies, why then you go to the hangman —provided Gaucho and his men aiiow you to go that far. You will sa^e him to save your own neck. Do you absolutely refuse to accept my proposition?" "Absolutely. I shall make better terms." Stanway went to the door. "There Is going to be no more making of terms," he said briefly. "I shall talk to you henceforward as I'd talk to a rat In a trap !" Torre sprang up swiftly, his face flushing darkly with a rush of angry blood, "You shall sec," he cried harshly, "thai even a rat in a trap may huv(i_|* sharp teeth.

Stanway for the first time felt Those not coming In were to remain on guard over the corrals Into which the saddle-horses had been herded, and to serve a s seotfeels along t h e border. The guard over Torre and Juarez was doubled; the two men-were disarmed aud assigned to couches upon the opposite side of the drawing-room. Doors were fastened, windows locked, shutters drawn, and the hacienda was like an old fortress in time of siege. "I do not anticipate an attack," Stanway smiled into Teresa's grave fo,ce. "Surely the insurgents are not looking for complications with this country. But we are taking no chances. It would take a whole regiment of them to trouble us here tonight." "But are we doing right?" she whtRpered a little fearfully. "If we gave them the money—It Is so small a part of papa graude's estate—he would be out of all danger. And as It Is—" "It Is a bluff of Torre's, pure and simple," he told her. "If anything should happen to Senor de la Guerra, Torre aud Juarez would not last ftf» teen minutes with your little army of retainers, senorita. They talk big both of them, but I am not afraid." But when she had given him her hand and a wan smile by the way of "Buenas noches," he was not content until he himself had seen to the watchfulness of the men stationed here and there throughout the big house, And, by the way of final precaution, he saw that another man slept that night at Pedro's side, In front of the senorlta's door, and that both men were armed. He had not again gone to where Dempton fumed and worried in the library. It was his thought to leave the lawyer to chew upon the cud of suspicion his own parting words had given him, to make the night long and uneventful for him, so that his trembling little soul might have time for thought, It was late when Teresa heeded his urging and went to her room.

The two vaqueros rose and stood looking at the American curiously. "Torre," called Stanway bluntly. Torre Turned, smiled, ended a last high note clearly, and only then bowed very deeply to the rancher. "At your service, Senor Stanway," he said lightly. "Onucho," said Stanway, for the moment Ignoring Torre. "I shall be with the senor for a little. If you and your companion will wait for me In the patio I'll call you when I want you." "SI, senor," responded the vaquero promptly. And from the door, as by way of nfterthought: "We have not searched him, senor. No doubt he is armed." "No doubt," dryly, from the rancher. "It Is all right, Gaucho." The two cowboys went out.

In the second place," and the smile In his eyes was hard and cruel enough now, "I am taunting a man whom I do not like. That Is a pleasure." Stanway frowned, not understanding. "Bring u s back the senor and you gain your freedom—your safety, if you don't waste too much time getting out oJ the country," he said. "You ask a great deal." Torre pulled thoughtfully at his little mustache. "And you offer a very little. For I shall have my freedom and safety—why, senor, at any time I please!" "You refuse my offer?" "Absolutely." "Even," went on Stanway coolly, 'after your personal danger Is augmented by Dempton's confession of complicity ?M For the first time the rancher saw a quick light of fear leap into Torre's eyes. Then the lids dropped a little— a very little, but enough to hide the eyes—and In an Instant Torre's manner was again careless, indifferent. ••A random shot that, no?" He lifted his eyes once more, and they were trans; and mirthful again. 4(X am sorry that It does not find a t a r g e t " "What will you say when you are confronted with Dempton's written and signed confession?"

CHAPTER V I M . At Three O'clock. The questions perplexing Stanwny were these: "Is there a large force of men backing Torre and Juarez? Are they atone In the thing?" And there was only one way to answer them. As the afternoon slipped by and dusk came down upon them, sweet and warm, through the groves of orange and olive trees, Teresa sent word to the men's quarters for all, excepting a half dozen of them, to come to the house. Juarez seemed to be asleep upon >* couch. Half a dozen of Gaucho's >tr queros, all armed, were scattered about the room, their quick pyes showing how alert was the spirit within them. Torre, sitting at a table idly turning the leaves of an TTTtTsTraTed book of poems, rose quickly when Stanway came Into the room and stepped to his side. Torre makes threats which seem to mean an attack by bandits in the night. (TO 111-: CONT1N L'KD.) TAKING HIM DOWN A PEG Visitor's Comment on the Intelligence of. His Host Verged on the Caustic.

Who, when this point Is made, will seem the one who would be desirous of the disappearance of the old gentleman? "Who then will appear In the light of the abductor?

He saw that If Torre had made one mistake—if Dempton were ID reality what he appeared, a weak tool—yet the young Spaniard had planned painstakingly elsewhere. "You may mark a certain seeming discrepancy," went on the Spaniard. "I suppose t h e De la Guerra estate is worth a million.
