Pinckney, Livingston County, Michigan, Thursday, November 25, 1930 THE COMMUNITY PROGRAM GLEANING UP BEE Without a hitch of any kind the first Pinckney Community School entertainment waa carried through to a successful fimah at the school last Friday evening. The movable partition of the two assembly rooms was removed so aa to make one large auditorium and this space was well filled by a large and enthusiastic audience whose loud and frequent applause demonstrated the pleasure and satisfaction they received from the efforts of the high school members for their entertainment. It is to be regretted that an unfortunate connection of dates kept some members of the Federated Church away, as they held their annual meeting on the tame night The first^part of the evening's entertainment was a musical and literary program. The first number was the High School Chorus composed of the following members: Dorothy Darrow, Nita Wilcox, Blanche FroBt, Irene Warner, Lillian Wasson, Myra Graves, Viola Shipley, Vera [Shipley, Olah Docking, Cynthia Haaes, Agnes Carr, Pauline Reason, and Ruth Galligan, Organist. Recitations by Viola Shipley, Erma Read, Marjorie Smith, and Pauline Reason followed; a humorous class poem by Irene * Warner, and the Schoo* Sextette composed of Nita Wilcox, Lillian Wasson, Irene Warner, Myra Graves Viola Shipley, and Vera Shipley completed the first part of the entertainment. Then followed the Debate. The question to be decided was Resolved The Pinckney Masonic Lodge, having definitely decided to rebuild the business places on Main street burned down at the last fire, a clean up bee was scheduled for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this week. On Monday it rained all day and there was nothing doing for the work. era. Tuesday started out with prospects of another rainy day but ia the forenoon the workers began to arrive and in the afternoon a force of thirty or forty men and boys were busily engaged in sorting out the good bricks and removing the debris from the sidewalk, before night they had accomplished a great deal in the cleaning up. Wednesday morning the rain began again and the completion of the work will be delayed. The good spirit of community work seems to have struck this town and the willing workers at this work Bhdw what can be accomplished when the right incentive is offered. MONKS BROS.

On the affirmative side were Cynthia Hanes, Agnes Carr, Dorothy Darrow, Margaret Driver, and Bessie Swarthout. Opposed were Olah Docking, Blanche Frost, Helen Mercer, Stanley Hall, and Edna Darrow. Facts and figures supporting both sides of the question were intersposed with sparkling humor, brilliant witi* cisms, stingless sarcasm, Igood logic, and solid argument in a way that surprised and pleased the friends of the participants by the efficiency attained so soon—not one having ever taken part in a public debate before this occasion. The Judges, Mrs. M. £ . Darrow, G. W. Teeple, and F. E. Weeks gave the decision to the affirmative side, and thus ended the first High School Entertainment for Pipekney—a complete success in every way. Th«se who took an active part or assisted in this affair —pupils and teachers—are to congratulated on the outcome. Let's have more, and oftener. It would not be going outside the hounds of reason to state that with more (experience Pinckney High can furnish a debating team that would make a creditable showing against teams of larger schools in public debate. A light lunch and Shadow box social were furnished after the debate, which was a social, gastronomic, and financial success. Come again. Katherine Leofner 80, Irene liomberger 60.

Now, he purchased a farm as a summer home for his family, and finds special delight in walking about the place, commenting on the condition of the rrops and in many ways showing his interest In his possessions. One evening during the summer he was strolling over the farm. The hired man had cut the grass during the day —a very thin crop—and left it on the ground to dry. The official saw it and, calling his man, said : "It appears to me that you are very careless, Why haven't you been more particular in raking up thla hay? Don't you see that you have left dribblings all around?" For a moment the hired man stared, wondering whether his boss was quizzing him. Then he replied: "Dribblings? Why, sir, that's the crop!"

And time enough too," I added, peeping out at the klichen window, "for there is the man himself coming through the garden." I ran to the door to meet him, feeling that I would have given a deal to have htm back in Edinburgh again. He came running, waving a paper over his head, and I thought that maybe he had had a note from Edie, and that It was all known to him. But, as he came up, I saw that It was a big. stiff, yellow paper, which crackled as he waved it, and that his eyes were dancing with happiness. "Hurrah! Jock." he shouted. "Where is Edie? Where Is Edie? "What Is it, man?" I asked. "It's my diploma, Jock. I can practice when 1 like. It's all right. I want to show it to Edie." "The best you can do Is to forget all about Edie," said L Never have I seen a man's face change as bis did when I said these words. "What! What d'ye mean, Jock Calder?" he stammered. He let go his hold of the precious diploma a s he spoke, and away it went over the hedge and across the moor, where it stuck flapping on a whin-bush, but he never so much as glanced at it. His eyes were b*ent upon me, and I gaw the devil's spark glimmer up in the depths of ihem. "She Is not worthy of you," said 1 He gripped me by the shoulder.

Napoleon's back from Elba, his troops have flocked to him, und Louis has run for his life. The news was in Berwick this morning." "Great Lord I" cried my father. "Then the weary business Is all to do over aj?aln." "Aye, we thought we were out from fhe shadow, but it's still there. Wellington is ordered from Vienna to the Low Countries, and it is thought that me emperor will break out first on ,hat side. Well, It's a bad wind that ilows nobody any good. I've Just had tiews that I'm to join the Seventy-first as senior major. I am to Join my regiment as soon as I can, and we shall be over yonder in a month, and in Paris, maybe, before another one Is over." "By the Lord, then, Tm with you, major!" cried Jim Horscroft. "I'm not too proud to carry a musket, If you will put me in front of this Frenchman." "My lad, IM be proud to have you serve under me," said the major. "And as to De Lissac, where the emperor Is he will be." "You know the man," said I ; "what can you tell us of him?" "There Is no better officer in the French army, and that is a big word to say. They say that he would have been a marshal, but he preferred to stay at the emperor's elbow. I met him two days before Comnna, when I was sent with a flag to speak about our wounded. He was with Soult then. I knew him again when I saw him." "And I will know him again when I see him," said Horscroft, with the old dour look on his face. And then at that Instant, as I stood there, It was suddenly driven home to "How do they run?** asked the major. "A poor show,** said he, "but they may lick into shape. The best men have been drafted to America, and we are full of militiamen and recrulties." "Tut, rut!" said the major. "We'll have old soldiers and good ones against us. Come to me If you need any help, you two." And so, with a nod, he left us. and we began to understand that a major who Is yoar officer is a very different person from a major who happens to be your neighbor in the country. Soon came the news that the folk at Vienna, who had been cutting up Europe as if it had been a Jigget of mutton, had flown back, each to his own country, and that every man and horse In their armies had their faces toward France. We heard of great reviews and musterlngs in Paris too. and then that Wei llngton was in the Low Countries, and that on us and on the Prussians would fall the first blow. The government was shipping men to him as fast as they could, and every port along the east coast was choked with guns and horses and stores. On the third of .Tune we had our marching orders also, and on the same day we took ship from Lelth. reaching Ostend the nltrhr after. From there we went on to a place called Bruges, and from there to nhf>nt. where we picked nn with the Fifty-second and the Mnety-flfth. which were the two regiments that we were brigaded with. It's R wonderful place for churches and stonework, is 01 v n t ; and. Indeed, of all the towns we were 'n th^re wns srnrce one hnt had * finer kirk than any in Glasgow.

For myself. I was very happy at Ath, and I found the folk very kindly and homely. There was a farmer of the name of Bo is, In whose fields we wert quartered, who was a real good friend to many of us. We built him a wooden barn among us in our spare time, and many a time I and .Teb Seaton, my rear-rank man, have hung out his washing, for the smell of the wet linen seemed to take us both straight home as nothing else could do. I have often wondered whether that good man and his wife are still living, though I think it hardly likely, for they were of a hale middle age at the time. Jim would come with us too sometimes, and would sit with u* smoking in the big Flemish kitchen, but he was a different Jim now to the old one. He had always had a hard touch In him, bv* now hla trouble seemed to have turned him to flint, and I never saw a smile upon his face, and seldom heard a word from his lips. His whole mind was 6et on revenging himself upon De Lissac for having taken Edie from hlra, and he would sit for hours, with his chin upon his hands, glaring and frowning, all wrapped up in the one idea. This made him a bit of a butt among the men at first, and they laughed st him for i t : but when they came to know him better they found that he w i s not a good man to laugh at, and they dropped it.

After the period of growth in spring and summer there is a period of dormancy in plants before the cold weather sets In, and If plants are maintained artificially at a high temperature this dormant period persists. Exposure to cold Is needed to activate the plant for another period of growth. Perhapa the liberation of enzymes act* on the stored starches, converting thern into sugars, or the phenomenon may be due to a change in the permeability of the cell-membrane.

AH his wealth could not make him happy or contented, for happiness largely depends upon digestion.

Without a healthy stomach and good digestion our blood is thin, watery and poor, our heart action is weak, our liver does not do its duty, and man is miserable and unhappy.

"Oh!" said h e ; and stood nodding his head and looking at me, though I knew very well that he could neither , see me, nor the steading, nor anything else. Then he gave a gulp In his throat, and spoke In a queer, dry, rasping voice. "When was this?" said be. "This morning." "Were thej married?" "Yes." He put his band against the doorpost to steady himself. "Any message for me?" "She said that you would forgive her." "May God blast my soul on tue day 1 do. Where have they gone to?"

"Take It away!" said Jim, bis face still convulsed with rage, "Have a soop, Mister Horscroft," cried ray father, pressing the liquor upon him. "It will give you fresh heertl" Jim ^nught hold of Vhe bottle, and sent It flying over t h e garden hedge. "It's very good for those who wish to forget," paid h e ; "I am going to remember." "May God forgive you for sinfu' waste," cried my father aloud. "And for well-nigh braining an officer i f His Majesty's Infantry." said old Major EJ^ott, putting his head over ihe hedge. "I could have done with a nip after a morning's walk, but It is something new to have a whole bottle whiz past my ear. But what Is amiss, that you all stand round like mutes at n burying?" In a few words I told him our trouble, while Jim. with a gray face nnd his brows drnwn down, stood leaning against the door-post. The major wns as glum as we by the time I had finished, for he was fond both of Jim and Edie. "Tut, ^ t ! " said he. "I feared gomethiHg 6t the Wild ever since that business of the peel-tower. It's the way with t h e French. They ean't leave the women alone.

Quick as a flash my resolution was taken. "I'll come with you, too, major," I cried. "Jock ! Jock!" said my father, wringing his hnnds. Jim said nothing, but he pnt his arm half round Tie and hugged me. The major's eyes shone and he flourished his cane in the air. "My word! but I shall have two good recruits at ray heels," said he. "Well, there's no time to be lost, so you must both be ready for the evening coach." And this was what a single day brought about, and yet years pas? away so often without a change. Just think of the alteration in that fourand- twenty Iiours. De Lissac was gone. Edie was gone. Napoleon had escaped. War had broken out. Jim Horscroft had lost everything, and he and I were setting out to fight against the French. It WAS all like n dream until I tramped off to the coach that evening, and looked back at the gray farmstending and at the two little dark figures—ray mother, with her face sunk In her Shetland shawl, and ray father, waving his drover's stick to hearten me upon my way. CHAPTER X I . The Gathering of the Nations. And now I come to a bit of my story that clean makes me wish that I had never taken the job of telling it In hand. But you can find the cause and reason of everything in the books About history, and so I shall Just leave that alone and talk about what I saw with my own eyes and heard with my own ears. The regiment to which our friend had been appointed was the Seventyfirst Highland Light Infantry, which wore the red coat and the trews, and had Its depot in Glasgow town. There we went all three, by coach, the major In great spirits and full of stories about the Duke and the Peninsula, while Jim sat !n the corner, with his lips set and his arms folded, and I knew that he killed De Lissac three times an hour In his heart. I could tell It by the sudden glint of his eyes and grip of his hnnd. We were In Glasgow next day. and the major took us down to the depot, where a soldier with three stripes on hla arm and a fistful of ribbons from his cap showed every tooth he had In htg head a t the right of J1m, and walked three times round him, to have the view of him as if he had been Carlisle castle. Then he came over to me and felt my muscle, and was well nigh a* pleased s s with Jim. "These are the* sort, major; these are the sort," he kept saying. "With a thousand of these we could stand up J to Boney's beet." —and the whole brigade set to work nt Its drill from morning till evening. General Adams was our chief and Reynell was our colonel, and th^v were both fine old soldiers; but what rm1 • heart into us most was to think that we were under the Duke, for his name wns like a bugle call. He was at Brussels with the hnl'r of the army, hut we knew that we should see hlra qnlck enough if he were needed. I nad never seen so many English together, and indeed I had a kind of contempt for them, as folk always have If they live near a border. But the two regiments that were with us now were a s good comrades a s could be wished. The Fifty-second had a thousand men In the ranks, and there were many old soldiers of the Peninsula among them. They came from Oxfordshire for the most part. The Ninety-fifth were a rffle regiment, and had dark-green coats Instead of red It was strange to see them loading, for they would put the ball in a greasy rag and then hammer It down with a mallet, but they could fire both farther and stralghter than we. All that part of Belgium was covered with British troops at that time, for the Guards were over near Enghlen, and there were cavalry regiments on the farther side of us. You see, It wns very necessary that Wellington should spread out all his force, for Boney was behind the screen of his fortresses, and of course we hod no means of saying on what side he might pop out, except that he was pretty sure to come the way that we least expected him. On the one side he might get between us and the sea. and so cut us off from England; and on the other he might shove In between the Prussians and ourselves.

Japanese Masks of Shrme. One of the most unusual features of a Japanese court to a stranger Is the fnct that each prisoner has his heart covered by a wicker mask, more like an Inverted waste-basket than any thing else, the object of which Is to prevent recognition of the prisoner, to permit him to hide his shnme under the disguise and. very possibly, to prevent him from making a bolt for liberty.

This burden, real or fancied, may be heavy, but to the world, it In no way compares with the accumulated burdens borne by the f a r m e r in the production of the wheat crop upon which the world depends for Its staff of life. If the crop escapes bad weather— cold, ice, flood, hail, frost, drought, or hot winds—various insects may be^ lurking about to feed upon what remains. Plant diseases in the form of and have a thicker skin than those of the common barberry. This barberry is harmless as it does not carry the stem rust and should not be destroyed. If every property owner in the northern wheat-growing states of Colorado. Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dnkota, Wisconsin and Wyoming co-operate, It will be possible to take this "Old Man of the Sea," black-stem rust, off the shoulders of the wheat grower. Every property should be carefully examined for the harmful barberry and all bushes found should be eradicated so that ssu^ji teiftiiis: .-.x.^^a'St f ^ w w i Girlie's Fine Philosophy.

Among these diseases are the loose smut, stinking smut or bunt, the black-stem rust, the leaf rust, and the scab or blight. Of all these the black-stem rust has taken the heaviest toll in the n o r t h e r n states, from year to year, and in years of rust epidemics it has caused appalling losses. Hope Is now held out to the wheat growers of the northern part of the United States that the control of black-stem rust is possible by the eradication of common barberry. It is important that everyone should understand t h a t the harmful barberry is the tall green common European barberry and its purple variety, and may be distinguished by the following characteristics. Usually it Is four to six feet tall, though it may reach ten or even fifteen feet if the bushes are old. T h e edges of the r a t h e r large leaves are toothed, the teeth ending in small spiny points. On the Btems, at the base of each cluster of leaves, a r e three or more stout, s h a r p spines. T h e light yellow flowers and red berries are borne In long clusters like c u r r a n t s . This bush, or any t h a t resembles it closely, is harmful and should be destroyed J a p a n e s e Variety Harmless. In contrast to this tall bush there is a l o w * s p r e a d l n g barberry, known a s J a p a n e s e barberry, which in some localities is more widely planted than t h e tall or common barberry. T h e J a p a n e s e b a r b e r r y is seldom over three feet tall and has small leaves with e n t i r e edges. The spines on the stems a r e only one In a place. T h e flowers a r e borne singly or in twos. T h e berries are a dark red In color, borne singly or in twos, like gooseberries. It OI Ul i t i r r i i vi;ri wi ' U ^ ' H V i-5 , U 1 W1 I > , fences or streams, in brushy pastures, or in any places where birds might carry the seeds. In this wny you help to increase the prosperity of your community by increasing the production of wheat and other grains and also help to supply more food for the whole world. F u r t h e r information may be obtained from the United States Department of Agriculture or your state agricultural college. Wide Interest Shown In Work. The wide Interest taken In the work of eradication has been evidenced by the numerous requests received by the d e p a r t m e n t during the past fiscal year for informational material for use In the Infested areas. Lack of funds has hampered somewhat the d e p a r t m e n t ' s campaign against barberry. It was able, however, to supply a large number of posters, bulletins, circulars, and other m a t t e r for distribution. A survey to locate barberries was begun in the larger cities because of the better means for spreading Ipformatlon. It was extended then to the towns, so that now nearly ail cities and towns having a population of over 300 have been surveyed. An intensive survey of the entire rural area outside of the cities and towns has been begun- A very important part of this survey is finding the escaped barberries which have started from seeds dropped by birds in thickets and pastures. Over 1,674,000 escaped bushes were found during the past year. A total of almost 1.900.000 bushes was found in rural districts last year. Records to date show that 3,865.426 bushcj have been located and 3,705,142 bushes removed.

The Third Grade found by their chart that there have been more than twenty cloudy days in November. The teacher of mathematics reports that she has the most advanced algebra class she has had in several years. Juniors! We are well pleased with the report. Tne percentage of attendance in the hign school for November was 99. This is a satisfactory* record—nearly every student having been in school every day The seventh grade Geography class is working diligently on the study of Europe. Several inquiries have been coming in asking whether or not the Pinckney High School is on the accredited list of the University. We take pleasure in answering these inquiries by stating the school is, and has been on the accredited list for the past six years. Graduates of Pinckney may enter any college or university in Michigan or practically any college in the United States with out taking an examination. The position of the school can best be understood from the report of the last inspector. He said, "Pinckney has a fine school, comparing very favorably with high schools throughout the state as long as the present high standard of instruction is maintained and tne Board of Education continues to supply the necessary equipment, there is no reason why Pinckney should not re-, main on the Univesity list indefinitely" However this does not mean that all graduates can enter the University. The University does not accept all the graduates from any high school, but has a ruling that no student, from any high school, can enter the University IJ except his scholarship, character^suj * ing a success.

Mr. Read aaya he did not buy the lot for speculation but only ir> order to be sure the burned district is rebuilt, and he is willing to sell the lot at cost to parties who are willing to build as quick as possible. This shows unselfish loyalty to Pirckney's interests on the part of Mr. Read that is certainly commendable It also shows that Mr. Read, a careful, conservative business man, '.has confidence in the future of our village. >i. ^r~ ^ ^ j v a r ^ 4 ^ ^ ^ » i « ^ « , r j i ^ i i a s s * . * - ^ t^SwS»;^Ar*»iwffi^e^.^^j^^^ m those students w h o draw A*s B's and C's are capable of doing college work, while those w h o draw C's D's and E's cannot do college work.

Market Quotations By Wireless For Farmers Arrangements for trying out the wireless as a means of sending out agricultural- market news to the farmers of the country are being made by|the United States Department of Agriculture. The trial service will be offered to half a dozen or more counties adjacent to the Distric of Columbia, going out probably from the wireless station of the Federal Bureau of Standards to numerous private licensed operators who would aid in distributing the reports to farmers and others interested in the territory covered. Should the experiment prove practicable the service will be extended to othe*r parts of the county. Although no system of dividing the country and of operation has been determined upon as yet, the plan favored at the present time calls for the use of 17 wireless stations throughout the country, There would be ten 250-mile radios stations, eight in the East where market centers are more numerous and closer together, and two in the far West; two 300-mile radius Carrie Sheridan, Mrs. O.

COHAN DOYLB CHAPTER XI—Continued. —10— We were early risers at that time, and the whole brigade was usually under arms at the first flush of dawn. One morning—it was the sixteenth of June—we had just formed up, and General Adams had ridden up to give some order to Colonel Reynell, within a musket-length of where I stood, When suddenly they both stood staring along the Brussels road. None of us dared move our heads, but every eye ID the regiment whisked round, and there we saw an officer, with the cockade of a general's aide-de-camp, thundering down the road as hard as a great dapple-gray horse could carry him. He bent his face over its mane and flogged at its neck with the slack of the bridle, as though he rode for very life. "Hullo. Reynell," says the general. "This begins to look like business. What do you make of it?" They both cantered their horses forward, and Adams tore open the dispatch which the messenger handed to him. The envelop had not touched the ground before he turned, waving the letter over tils head as if it had been n saber. "Dismiss!" he cried. "General paand two, with their bellies to the ground, came thundering through the gap with a fine twelve-pound gun whirling and freaking behind them. Following were another and another, four-and-twenty In allt- flying past us with such a din and clatter, the bluecoated men clinging/on to the guns and the tumbrils, the drivers cursing and cracking their whips, the manes flying, the mops and buckets clanking, and the whole air filled with the heavy rumble and the jingling of chains. There was a roar from the ditches and a shout from the gunners, and we saw a rolling gray cloud before us, with a score of busbies breaking through the shadow. Then we closed up again, while the growling ahead of us grew louder and deeper than ever. "There's three batteries there," said the sergeant. "There's Bull's and Webber Smith's, but the other Is new. There's some more on ahead of us, for here's the track of a nine-pounder, and the others w,ere all twelves. Choose a twelve if you want to get hit, for a nine mashes you up, but a twelve snaps you like a carrot"—and he went on to tell about the wonderful wounds that he hod seen until my blood ran like iced water in my veins, and you might have rubbed all our faces In • . V . To wind it all up, the Duke waa in retreat, !n order to keep In touch with the Prussians, and it was rumored that he would take op hla ground and fight a big battle just at the very place where we had been halted. And soon we saw that this rumor was true, for the weather cleared toward evening, and we were all out on the ridge to see what we could see. It was such a bonny stretch of corn and grazing land, with the crops Just half green and half yellow, and fine rye as high as a man's % shoulder. A scene more full of peace you could oof* think of, and look where yon woafc! over the low, carving, corn-covered hills, you could see the little village steeples pricking up their spires among the poplars. But slashed right across this pretty picture was a long trail of marching men, some red, some green, some blue, some black, zigzagging over the plain and choking* the roads, one end so close that we could shout to them as they stacked their muskets on the ridge at our left, and the other end lost among the woods as far as we coold see. And then on other roads we saw the teams of horses toiling and the dull gleam of the guns, and the men straining and swaying as they helped to turn the spokes In the deep, deep mud. As we stood there regiment after regiment and brigade after brigade took position on the ridge, and ere the sun had set we *ay in a line of over sixty thou sand men, blocking Napoleon's way to De Ltssac, or whatever his devirs Brussels. But the rain had come swishing down again, and we of the Seventy-first ~ushed off to our barn once more, where we had better quarters than the greater part of our comrades, who lay stretched in the mud. with the storm beating upon them, until the first peep of day. • ' ^ ^ " ^ f - r ^ ^ CHAPTER X I I . The Shadow on the Land. It was still drftzllng in the morning, with brown, drifting clouds' and n damp, chilly wind. It was. a queer thing for me as I opened my eyes to think that I should be in a battle that day, though none of us ever thought It would be such a one as it proved fiV ^WS* n P. W low ridge upon th* farttu. eitfe, and saw a thousand tittle yellow points of flame, with tbe dark awoke wreathing up slowly In the heavy sir. There WM another farmhouse on the farther side of the valley, and as we watched we suddenly saw a little group of horsemen appear on a knoll beside H and look across at us. There went a dozen hussars behind, and la front five men. three with helmets, one with a long, straight red'feather In his hat, and the last with a low cap. "By God tM cried the sergeant "That's him! That's Boney, the one with the gray, horse. Aye, Til lay a month's pay on i t " I strained my eyes to see him, this man who had cast that great Bhadow. over Europe which darkened the nations for flve-and-twenty years, and which had even fallen across oar outof- the-world, little sheep farm, and had dragged us all—myself, Bdle esd Jim—out of the lives that our folk had lived before as. As far as I could see he was « dumpy, square-shouldered kind of man, and he held his double glasses to his eyes with his elbows spread very wide out on each side. I was still staring when I heard the catch of a man'R breath by my side and there was Jim, his eyes glowing like two coals and his face thrust over my shoulder. "That's he, Jock," he whispered. "Yes, that's Boney," said L No, no; it's he. This De Lapp or A FOR WOMEN ««>«v«.a.'^—"iWi- Ai poleon had crossed the rronuer mt day before, hnd pushed the Prussian? before him, and was nlready deep In the country to the east of us with n hundred and fifty thousand men. Awny we scuttled to gnther our things together and have our breakfast, and In an hour w^ hnd marched off and left Ath and the Dender behind us forever. There WHS i?ood need for haste, for the Prussians hud sent no news to Wellington of what was doing, and though he had rushed from Brussels at the first whisper of it, like a good old mastiff from its kennel, It was hard •0 see how he could come up in time to help the Prussians. It was a bright, warm morning, nm! as the brigade tramped down the broad Belgian road the dust rolled up from It like the smoke of a battery. I tell you that we blessed the man that planted the poplars r.long the sides, for their shadow was better than drink to e.s. Over across the fields, both to the right and the left, were other roads, one quite close and the other a mile or more from us. A column of infantry* was marching down the near one, •and it was a fair race between us, for we were each walking for all we were worth. There was such a wreath of •dust round them that we could only *ee the gun barrels and the bearskin* breaking out here and there, with the inead and shoulders of a mounted officer coming out ibove the cloud, anrl the flutter of the colors. It was a brigade of the Guard?, but we could not tell which, for we had two of them with us in, the campaign. On the far road there.was also dust and to spare but through it there flashed every now and then^ a long twinkle of brightness like a hundred sllvrr beads threaded in a line, and the breeze brought down fcucn a snarling, clangiag, clashing ikind of music us I had never listened to.

And aa he spoke there came the flew grmnbffng of a cannonade away sjonewhere to the east of us, deep and ioarae, Mke a roar of some blood- Eobed beast that thrives on. the lives to«a.

The sun was almost above us when we stopped at a little place called Hal, where there is an old pump from which I drew and drank a shako full of water—and never did a mug of Scotch ale taste as sweet. More guns passed us here, and Vivian's hussars. three regiments of th*m,,smart men with bonny brown horses, a treat to the eye. The notee of the cannons was louder than ever now, and it tingled through my nerves just as It had done years before when, with Edle by my side, I had seen the merchant ship fight with the prl ateers. It was so loud now that it seemed to me that the battle must be going on just beyond the nearest wood, but my friend the sergeant knew better. "It's twelve to fifteen miles off," said he. "you may be sure that the general knows that we are not wanted, or we should not he resting here at Hal." What he said proved to be true, for a minute Inter down came the colonel with orders that we should stack arms and bivouac where we were, and there we stayed all day, while horse and foot and guns, English, Dutch and Hanoverians, were streaming through. The devil's music went on till evening, sometimes rising Into a roar, sometimes sinking Into a grumble, until about eight o'clock in the evening it stopped altogether. We were eating our hearts out as you may think, to know what it all meant, but we knew that what the Duke did would be for the best, so we just waited in patience. Next day the brigade remained at Hal in the morning, but about midday came an order from the Duke, and we pushed on once more until we came to a village called Bralne something, and there we stopped, and time, too, for a sudden thunderstorm came on and a plump of rain that turned all the roads nnd the fields into bog and mire. We got Into the barns at this village for shelter, and there we found two stragglers, one from a kilted regiment and the other a man of the German legion, who had a tale to tell that was as dreary as the weather. Boney had thrashed the Prussians the day before, and our fellows had been sore put to It to hold their own against Ney, but had beaten him off at last. It seems an old. stale story to you now, but you cannot think how we scrambled around those two men in the barn, and pushed and fought Just to catch a word of what they said, and how those who had beard were in turn mobbed by those who had not We laughed and cheered and groaned all in turn, as we were told how the Fortyfourth had received cavalry in line, how the Dutch-Belgians had fled, and how the Black Watch had taken the lancers into their square, and then bad kilted, them at their leisure. But the lancers had had the laugh on their aide when they crumpled up the Sixtyninth and carried off one of the colors. heard the most lovely music that I ever listened to claying somewhere in the distance. We all stood In clusters hearkening to It, !t was so sweet and Innocent and sad-like. But our sergeant laughed when, he saw how It had pleased us all. "Them are the French bands," said he; "and If you come out here you'll see what some of you may not live to see again." Out we went—the beautiful music still sounding in our ears, and stood on a rise Just outside the barn. Down below, at the bottom of the slope, about half a musket shot from us, was a snug tiled farm with a hedge and a hit of an apple orchard. All round It a line of men In red coats and high fur hats were working like bees, knocking holes in the wall and barring up the doors. "Them's the light companies of the Guards," said the sergeant. "They'll hold that farm while one of them ca» wag a finger. But look over yonder, and you'll see the carapfires of the French." We looked across the valley at the name Is. It is he." Then I saw him at once. It was the horseman with the high red feather in his hat. Even at that distance I could have sworn" to the slope of his shoulders and the way he carried his head I clapped my hand upon Jim's sleeve, for I. could see that his blood was boiling at the sight of the man, and that he was ready for any madness. But at that moment Bonaparte seemed to lean over and say something to De Llssac, and the party wheeled and dashed away, while there came the bang of a gun and a white spray of smoke from a battery along th* rldge. At the same instant the assembly was blown In cur village, and we rushed for our arms and fell in.

''*\A£iii;lKv5 Plea for More Fruit Trees. Why do we not plant more fruit trees for beauty? Not one of our familiar fruits will fall us in thii respect, if so considered. The apricot will often have Its white flowers open to match the purity of the last snow, the cherry will follow with a burst ot bloom, the apples and crab anples will continue the show, aided by plum an<! pear and peach, and the quince—ah there's a flower in a green enamel setting!— will close the blooming time. But the cherry fruits now redden in shining roundness, the earlier applet throw rich gleams of color to the eye, and there Is chromatic beauty until frost bids the last russets leave their stems, leaving bare the framework oi the trees, to teach us In lines of symmetry and efficiency how strength and elegance are combined in nature** handiwork.—J. Horace McFarland, In "Getting Acquainted With the Trees." \ A - V * ^ " NEEDED A THOROUGH SOUSING Evil Spirit of Hackman Could Not Be Exorcised Except by Most Stringent Methods. Doctor Brown, a negro evangelist, was a firm believer in the ancient custom of river baptism, and converts whom he baptized in this manner seldom forgot It. A few years ago he held a christening in a New Jersey town on the banks of the Delaware river, where a dozen or more converts were assembled, awaiting their turns to be Immersed. Among them was a hackman, who evinced a lively Interest In the ceremony. "Why does the good doctor," he asked of a fellow convert "duck some of them folks two times an' others more?" "He ducks 'em once," explained his friend, "for every new name they're goin' to have." "Is that possible?" the hackman replied. "I was goin* to call myself Thomas Jefferson Lincoln Anderson,' but I guess Tom' will be l)out long 'nuff." This conversation was overheard by the sharp ears of Doctor Brown, who finally beckoned the hackman to come forward. "To* name, please?" he Inquired In a deep bass voice. "Jess baptize me Tom,' that's 'nuff," the candidate replied, as the evangelist, taking him none too gently by the neck, piloted him far out Into the stream, where he ducked him not once but half a dozen times with such rapidity and 7lgor that a few minutes later the hackman found himself on the shore, coughing, sputtering and fighting for breath. The ceremony was soon over, and when he had recovered his strength he made his way to the side of Doctor Brown. "What fo' you duck me that way?" he demanded in aggrieved tones. "1 come here to be baptized, not to be drowned." "My good man," replied Doctor Brown, "you was so flHed with the devil I had to use a powerful lot of water to wash him out of yo' system." and indigestion.

In a couference with H. O. Halstead, superintendant of car service of Pere Marquette railway, and Carl Stewart of the Michigan Public U till lies Commission, the farm bureau traffic department reports it has secured an endorsement ot a plan providing that box cars lined by local cooperative associations at their own expense be returned to them. If the Michigan Public Utililities Commission issues an order covering this proposition it will become effective in all railroads in this state. Mr. Hartland, has already stated that the Pere Marquette will agree. To become effective, outside of the state the Inter-state Commerce Commission will have to issue an order. To secure return of cars under this plan cooperative associations would have i o notify local agents and divisional freight agents, giving car number, consignee, and destination. Lining cars is expensive but such a provision would make it possible for association which have a number of cars to ship to do so more economically. When cars were returned they could not be held any longer than ordinary' loading time without demmurrage charge.

I I S ' ! Washington.—The American government has informed Great Britain politely, but firmly, that it does not propose to be excluded from participation in rights and privileges secured under mandates provided in the treaties of peace. Furthermore, it expects to be heard regarding the terms of those mandates before they are put into force. The position of the United States is set forth in a note by Secretary Colby to Earl Curzon, British secretary of slate for foreign affairs and the specific question discussed is that of the Mesopotamian petroleum fields. Colby's note was made public following its delivery to the British foreign office. It is in reply to a British note of last August 9, which never has been made public and which deals with application of the principles of equality of treatment to the territories of the Near East to be placed under British mandate. The American note takes issue with what is described as the British position that mandate agreements and treaties are to be considered only by states that are members of the League of Nations. It states that the United StateB, as a participant in the world war "and a contributor to its successful issue, can not consider any of the associated powers, the, smallest not less than itself, debarred from discussion of any of its consequences, or • Washington.—River and harbor • • improvements and maintenance * • will require appropriations of |78,- • » 207,665 for the next fiscal year, ac- * • cording td estimates of Maj.-Gen. * • Lansing H.

Geneva.—There are rumors that the Haitian delegation decided to complain to the League of Nations against American occupation, financial control and the alleged marine atrocities in Haiti. It is intimated, however, the big powers induced Haiti not to make the appeal in view of the ticklish international situation between the League and America and because they feared it would arouse further American opposition to the league. Fred Dore and A. Bonomi, Haitian delegates, said: "We do not intend to bring up the question of American oc cupation and control of Haiti ai this meeting in view of the promise, already received, that the United Statos government will pay Haiti's share of the League of Nations expenses."

Lansing.—State financial support will be asked in a proposed bill to be presented the state legislature, which, In effect, will create a new retirement system for Michigan teachers. The present law adopted in 1915, is claimed by proposers of the new law to be unsound. Among provisions in the new bill Is one that will make possible the merging of the Detroit teachers annuity fund with the new system. The measure has been approved by a joint committee of the retirement fund aad the State Federation of Teachers' Clubs. Five weaknesses in the present bill are pointed out by the educators and their correction is provided In the proposed legislation. Among the moet important is the "unfair arrangements in which the financial burden is placed on the teacher with no aid from the state." In the new bill, it is proposed to have equal division of this burden. A second default Is seen in the failure to award a full return of contributions to younger teachers resigning from service. To benefit under the 1915 legislation, teachers "must persist until 25 years of service has been rendered." The new act proposes that" a younger teacher on leaving the service receives full return on aj.1 contributions with four per cent compound interest. "The fund has no protection against retirement of teachers during their early years," is brought out as the ..'..•.-••: •'.-.» .'>•... ^ S T O W - V - ^ - ' - H W - .. ^T,^.-^.'f.'-wt..v(ek^fi~^-xt4QK.ct.xu:.- I iaw, tjB v eTalLe^CiTcrSr ^StarTc- r ^ r f e c * •*£*£' early retirement, the explanation continues, of teachers Is a loss to the schools and an unwarranted abuse of the retirement idea. The proposed lew provides an age limit of 60 years, with earlier retirement in case of mental or physical disability. Lack of a guarantee solvenoy they claim gives the 1915 law Its fourth weakness. It is asserted the present law provides for a reduction in the amount of the annuities when the fund becomes over burdened. Many teachers resent the 1915 law, it is contended, because it makes the system compulsory on all teachers, old and new. No freedom of choice, gives it a fifth weakness, In the minds of the educators, while the proposed law makes it optional with the teachers at the time of its adoption, but is so framed as to encourage all to take , the advantage of its provision. •m* v HYPO-COD PUT HIM BACK ON HIS FEET Coughed So Much Nights He Couldn't Rest—His Health .

I coughed most all night and it would keep me aw^ke and restless and — I honestly was feeling so bad I took medicines and more medicines. Seemed like nothing helped me though, and I kept getting worse until along came Earle's Hypo-Cod and ended all my troubles like magic. "I had even" lost my appetite when 1 got hold of Hypo-Cod, but right away I began to improve. Pretty soon that old cough that had stuck to me for ages began to get better. Then I began wanting to eat my head off at meal times, and now since taking two bottles 1 am not troubled at all with my throat and the old cough has gone* I feel as good as I ever did and I can say Earle's Hypo-Cod is certainly wonderful medicine and am glad to recon> mend such a tonic to all my friends," declared Mr. I.

Bad breath possibly, and as a rule people so troubled have indigestion or other stomach troubles. Thousands hare used Earle's Hypo- Cod and found it an ideal tonic.

London.—An orgy ot outrage and destruction, believed to have been engineered by Sinn Feiners, was carried out on 12 cotton warehouses and several timber yards here. Several fires were burning at once necessitating a call for the assistance of outlying fire brigades. A suspected man, believed to have been connected with one of the fires, when seized by a policeman, pulled a revolver and shot the policeman dead. The manrlater was arrested. Fifteen warehouses in Liverpool and Bootle, a suburb, principally cotton warehouses In Liverpool, were set on fire. Two of the cotton warehouses in Liverpool were burned out.

RED BLOSSOMS ARE FAVORED American and Liberty Rosea, Carnations and Immortelles Among Popular Christmas Flowers. F CHRISTMAS -eve comes ID mild and warm and Christmas morning follows its gentle prophecy, the city florists will be happy. That will mean that the thousands of boxes of Christmas flowers which must be delivered on Christmas forenoon can go out with only the ordinary packing. But should there be freezing weather, every flower must be packed in cotton, which doubles the labor and the time necessary. Even with the mild Christ* mas, which is the florist's delight, the force In the big retail flower stores works all night the mght before Christmas. From midnight until 7 o'clock in the morning all hands are busy packing the boxes which In a few flours are to convey Christmas remembrances. At 7 o'clock the delivery wagons start, and before noon all the fragile blooms have reached the feminine handa for which they, were purchased. Probably 20,000 such boxes are delivered every Christmas mran- Ing in_Ne\v York". One dealer in a fashionable residence district has sent out between 300 and 400 every Christmas morning for many years. ^ - The "mixed box" ranges from $10 to $50 In price. It is a very modest little .box for the first price—just half a dozen roses, a dozen carnations, a bit; of "Christmas green." In the $50 box there will be probably half a dozen American Beauties, half a dozen long-stemmed liberty roses of the rich, velvety, deep crimson variety ; some violets, some "valley," some mignonette to. sweeten the whole box; perhaps some sweet peas and hyacinths, a bit of heliotrope and always some holly and a red satin ribbon to tie the whole. These expensive boxes are simply pretty trifles, sent to the rich, by those who are not sufficiently indebted or on suffciently intimate terms to *end more costly or substantial gifts.

Red Is pre-eminently the Christmas color, and red carnations and red roses are the favorite purchases. The red immortelles, also, go in great bunches for Christmas decorations in houses of both high and low degree. These immortelles are real flowers, though some people huve a notion they are made of paper. The natural color Is yellow, and they grow In the south of France, where great fields of them may be seen dried and dyed for the market. It Is a great Industry there. Europeans use them largely to the exclusion of fresh flowers for all occasions They are dyed In all colors for the European market, and thousands upon thousands of boxes of the red ones are Imported to New York every year for the Christmas trade. They cannot be successfully grown in America, owing to climatic differences. A few have been produced in Texas, but the florists say they are not "right." ft xvsiAX/ About the Mistletoe OLES, in his "Art of Slmpllng," observes, "If one hang mistletoe about the neck the witches can have no power of him."

The Lakeland patrons of the U. S. mail are highly indignant and already steps are being taken to restore the mail service. The news that Lee Van Horn, son of Mr. and Mr. George Van Horn was one of the eleven students selected from about 500 to receive this honor, is indeed gratifying to his many friends from his home community. He is a senior engineer specializing in chemical engineering. j&b. 1^%. W.

The first twenty two awards for exhibits of rye were pulled down by j Michigan growers, . George Hutzler of' South Manitou ranking first. Rosen Rye, a Michigan variety developed by the Michigan Agricultural college some years ago and now grown all over the country, took 20 out of :-'0 prizes i awarded for rye. Another triumph for Michigan came in the wheat judging. Red Rock Wheat, state product, originated by the plant breeders at M. A. C , took 9 of the first 14 awards in its class. Fine showings were made by state growers in other small grain classes, but the biggest victories were recorded in the rye and wheat fields. Charles Laughlin of Three Oaks, took first corn honors for the Northern District at the show, while A. W- « Jewett. Jr., of Mason, won second place in clover hay. An educational exhitit of Michigan crops was one of the outstanding i features' of the entire show.

COULDN'T SLEEP GOOD When a man in a drug store picks oat a tonic to take himself—(me may guess it is the beat in the bunch. What Mr. H. W. Harrison of Rochester, Mich., formerly at the Cunningham Drug Store, 155 Woodward Ave., Detroit, Mich., says below proves Earle*» Hypo-Cod Is the choice of taose whe> keep up with the latest and best things in medicine. He said: "I hadn't felt like myself in months. Felt dopey, draggy, sort of wornont and mornings never felt like eating breakfast. Wouldn't sleep sound nighta either and wake up day after day feeling as tired as when I went to bed. Had a bad cough, too. One of those deep kind and if Td take a deep breath my chest would hurt. I conferred with several in the drug store, and Jt seemed to be everybody's opinion that Earle'e Hypo-Cod had everything else beat— so I took some—and right here let me say It does what they claim. I'm feeling like a new man. I took two bottles and all those pains in ray chest have gone and the cough disappeared like magic. It made me gain Are pounds. My appetite picked up. My sleep became better and I now recommend this tonic to anyone who Is in a general rundown condition," declared Mr. H. W. Harrison, 537 Harrison Ave., Rochester, Mich.

Migdal Eder (tower of the flock), which rose from the penfold near the road to Jerusalem. These were not ordinary shepherds. They were shepherds of the flocks which were reserved for sacrificial purposes at the temple, and were regarded as men of no mean position. This was particularly true of Mlsael, the chief shepherd, whose three-scoreand- ten years sat upon him with a lightness and a grace which would have done credit to any man of forty. "Children," said Mlsnel on this particular evening when they met nt their MIgdal Eder, "I have been thinking all day of the marvelous memories whlcli hallow our beloved city." "And not only memories," broke In Acheel, the first assistant, who sought to imitate everything which he deemed so admirable in the leader; "but think of the prophecy which makes the future so glorious for Bethlehem." "Yes," said Misael, "that Is true, Acheel; "it is here that the Messiah Is to be born ; but heaven only knows when that great event will come to pass. I had hoped It might be in my time; but I suppose I am too old now to dare look forward to so great a happiness." Mlsael was interrupted at this point by the advent of travelers. It was but a small party, consisting of an elderly but robust man, a radiantly beautiful girl and a donkey on the back of which th>e girl was sitting. "Friends," said the elderly man, "we are belated and fear that we may not reach the caravansary at Bethlehem until darkness has closed in. Although we were born here, It is long since we have been here. My wife remembers nothing of the city; and I, too. have forgotten just where the caravansary is. Will you be kind enough to direct us to it?" "I will gladly take you to the caravansary," said Mlsael. And giving hurried directions to his assistants, f1 ^ shepherd led the way toward the d t y . ••Many have been coming through this way," he said to the travelers. "It Is on account of the new census which the king Is making for Rome." The elderly traveler answered, "That Is what has brought us here, too, to be enrolled under the edict of Augustus. We have been brought up to respect the law; and next to God's law and our own, that of Rome calls for our obedience now." The caravansary's lantern was hanging lighted, In the arch of the gate when the travelers arrived there. It looked Inviting with the lights streaming out through the doors and windows; but there was not an Inch of room for the newcomers. "We are crowded far beyond our capacity," said the host In reply to the anxious query of the traveler, who said he wpuld be satisfied to lie on the Hour for the night it only noun. better provision could be made for his young wife, who, he said, was an expectant mother. "We have come from Nazareth," he said, "and have spent three days journeying hither." "If you will accept such accommodations as I can afford," said the shepherd Mlsael, "I will be glad to give up my quarters to you. They are In a cave near one of the three cisterns of David and not so very far from where we first met." "My name Is Joseph," replied the elderly traveler, "and I am but a poor carpenter; but such thanks as I am able to make I hope you will accept for your kindness." With the aid of the other shepherds Misael set the cave in as good order as so crude a place with such meager furnishings permitted. Evidently the cave had once been used as a stable, as there still was a manger In one corner of It. And then these good shepherds went away, leaving Joseph and Mary filled with gTatltude toward God for having provided them with shelter In so strange a manner and at so critical a time. With the flute and song and stories, the shepherds entertained themselves until late Into the night. The crowing of a rooster In a distant barnyard sounded strangely at variance with the sweet and mournful strains of the song. "Why, the stars show that midnight has not yet come; I wonder what could have caused that cock to crow so early?" said one. A star, Immensely larger than any they had ever seen, gleamed mysteriously In the sky directly over their heads; and, at the same time, a luminous mist began settling over the MIgdal Eder, the flock-tower, near which the shepherds had pitched their place of vigil. The mist grew brighter and brighter until It shone like the midday sun, but with a more subdued sheen, which enabled them to look at it without being blinded. In the center of this light the winged figure of a young man of transcendent beauty appeared. What followed is best and most reverently related In the words of the gospel itself ( S t Luke 2, 9 to 15) : "And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about thera; and they were sore afraid. "And the angei said unrb them, 'Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. -, ' • T o r unto you is bom this day in the city of Dnvld a Saviour, which If Christ the Lord. 'And this shall he a sign tin.., you. Te shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.' "And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, " 'Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, good will toward men.1 "And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them Into heaven, the shepherds said, one to another, 'Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which L come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.' " Their minds filled only with thoughts of the wonderful babe they were to see, the shepherds abandoned their flocks and hurried toward Bethlehem. But, lo, a miracle! The wondrous star, which they had seen at the same' time that their MIgdal Eder had become Illuminated with the sheet, of the heavenly host, seemed to shoot its rays straight down toward the cave where Mlsael had given shelter to the belated wayfarers. "Can it be possible that we have been entertaining the parents of the Messiah?" said Mlsael. And a few moments later, when they had drawn near enough to look Into the cave, they saw that it was filled with a light similar to that which had shone around the angel; and Joseph came out to them and told them of the birth, of the babe, and led them in toward the manger, in which they found that its mother had cradled i t And the four shepherds prostrated themselves before the babe, and adored God; and then they told Joseph of what they had seen, And when they found that the mother of the divine babe needed no help from mortal hands they went back to their flocks. Putting Mystery to Work. Let no one argue that because the mind is still intangible—and probably always will be to mortal man—that psychology is impracticable. Electricity is an unknown quantity; no one knows whence It cometh or whither it goeth; yet It would be hard to find Anything more practical than an electric fan on a sweltering day—to take one of the least and most homely of its uses. Although mysterious, electricity can be directed, its reactions predicted, and its power ascertained. The result is that the element is exceedingly useful.—R. H. Piatt, Jr„ in the World's Work.

A detachment of police arrived shortly after the disorder was started and no serious damage was done, although chairs were broken and pictures and decorations torn from the walls. London had been discussing socialism for an hour before the disorders began. He was loudly applauded and frequently stopped to quiet the shouts of praise which came from his audience. v Suddenly, however, he began to criticize the soviet government, asserting that "the principles of Lenine were not necessarily the principles of yure socialism and that the Socialists of New York were out of sympathy with developments in Russia." "But here in Chicago," he continued, "you are too slow to ^realize the faults of the Russian government. You go blindly on the belief that anything a Socialist does must be right." The start of the criticism of Lenine brought a few shouts of disapproval from the audience and before London finished, the disorders became beyond control and the riot call was turned in.

Everyone likes an attractive home, and because they build only once in a lifetime they want Jt to last. For this reason, many people choose brick as the material of which it is to be constructed. The home shown here is an excellent examni** of a sm«n. comfortable welli t c sleeping roour\ The o'd laeae oi wall la t Ion have been shuffled into in* discard and plenty of air is now tht demand. The dining room, 13 by 17 feet, 1« back of the living room and connected with It by an open doorway. It la lighted by a triple window on the side. It in turn opens into the kitchen and a hallway on one side which leads to the rear bedroom and bathroom. The kitchen is very happily arranged and is of the size now considered most efficient for the housewife. Located next to the dining room, it 1» only a few steps from the stove to the dining table. Off one corner from the kitchen Is a delightful little breakfast nook to be used by the family when the work of preparing a big meal can be avoided. A pantry la also shown in the floor plana. In this house we have the happy combination of permanency, beauty and economy. It is modest In its arrangement, tot at all freakish or unusual and consequently not requiring special fittings which invariably mean increased expense. It fills all the requirements of the family of moderate means and above all Is a real home. The owner is independent of any landlord who may see fit to raise the rent frequently and out of reason, knowing that the tenant will stay rather than take a chance of seeking new quarters in the face of the present shortage. Instead of paying rent every month, the owner can insure himself a permanent home by paying that same money on a home of this type. Rent receipts are not recognized a s collateral by any bank, but a home la tangible security that can be used at ^^^^^^^^¾¾¾¾^^¾^¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾^ *:< It Pays to Compromise By H.

"Two acres at most," retorted Betty quite a s firmly. And then these two very positive, very young people set regarding each other defiantly, each secretly hoping the other would weakly yield withya "Well, have it your own way." B u t as It happened, ueither did. The circumstances, to be brief, were as follows: Peter and Betty expected to be married In exactly two weeks. Their itinerary was planned down to t h e ' v e r y last railroad ticket. But—j took and this was relevant to the subject under discussion—they had as yet no place to which to return when the honeymoon was over, Peter boarded, and so did Betty. And their strongest emotion, except their love for each other, was a prejudice against boarding any longer. Betty had visions of a softly-lighted living room not shared with sixteen other roomers, while Peter had dreams of pies not made with substitutes and then divided into innumerable small pieces. Out of this feeling had emerged the desire for a real home—a home with a capital H. And gradually had grown a vision of a home in the country with vegetable gardens and cows and chickens and, yes, bees and a pig. As the fancy grew, Peter saw himself a fullfledged farmer, able to look the cost of living defiantly In the face. That Is he saw himself a farmer In between times when he was not earning his salary as a modestly paid employee of Campbell & Westcott, wholesale grocers. Therein lay the hitch.

The wall* are etout, well able to withstand the assaults of the elements, and the exterior design is very attractive. In the first place it Is set back from the sidewalk on a terrace which Rives the builder an opportunity to put in an imposing approach. In this case it is concrete stairs wHh a landing or secondary sidewalk which In turn branches out to run around the house. The broad front porch, recessed under the sloping gable roof, is an important feature and something which has many advantages. Extending the full width of the house, it affords an excellent recreation center for the family and a playground for the children. Stout brick pillars support the roof while a mil of brick extends around on each side. Everything about this modest homo gives the impression of strength and security. A roof dormer above gives light to a high attic which can he very easily converted into an extra bedroom or two If needed. Set back on the terrace, with Its Imposing entrance and front porch this home is well worth while considering and studying.

FAMOUS HOUSE STILL STANDS Mansion Erected by Thomas Hancock on Beacon Hiil, Boston, Splendid Piece of Architecture. The first house of distinction to ne built on Beacon hill. In Boston, the highest of three elevations which gave to the city the name of "TrI-mountain," and which was the center of military, social and religious life, was erected by Thomas Hancock, an uncle of the Revolutionary hero. Thl9 was in 1737. It was a beautiful mansion, built of stone, with the ground laid out in orchards and gardens, and It was here that the first tree nursery in Boston was started. Inside great taste was shown in the furnishings, the drawingroom containing a rare set of bird'seye maple, covered with red damask. Hancock was a lavish host, and gave a famous breakfast to the officers of the French fleet. While the French troops were in Boston forty or more of the officers dined at the house every day. On one occasion, however, so many unexpected taw. Floor Plan. ment of the living room In the last few years has been one of the most Interesting sidelights in building construction. The present day large living room has **ntire!y supplanted the old Idea of double parlors. Instead of two rooms ns the custom was a few years brick, the space is given over to one large room, larger by far than any other room In the house. This living room, ns it is now called, is Invariably provided with a fireplace. In firs' fion-e the front bedroom irrvris n\X 'he living fooni.

The house Is yet considered a splendid piece of architecture. a small place thoroughly than have a lot of Idle fields on our hands growing sour for lack of crops." Bettyhad not been perusing the agricultural bulletins for nothing. "Very well," said Peter stiffly. "But, if we are going in for this sort of thing, we ought to do it on a big enough scale to make it worth while, with enough acres to raise the hay to feed the horses that do the plowing that prepares the fields that yield the crops." "It sounds like the house that Jack built," giggled Betty. Then, seriously, "Well, all I can say is that I won't be a party to any such foolishness. Besides, after saying right along that you would be satisfied with twenty-five acres, you are jacking it up to fifty! It's absurd." And that is the point at which the story begins. Peter went home very shortly and tried to forget that he and Betty were indulging in their first quarrel. But even as he attempted to Interest himself in an informing volume for back to the landers, Betty's piquant little face as she defied him danced between the lines. "Two acre**, at most!" she had insisted, You see Peter had seen in the paper an advertisement of a farm for sale with considerably more than two acres of land, and a telephone convinced him that it was a decidedly worth-while buy. Hence it was up to him, by fair means or foul, to persuade Betty likewise. Next morning Betty was summoned from breakfast by a telephone call. Peter didn't usually call her at such an early hour. Eight o'clock it was. He must have just reached the office. "Hello—yes—this is Betty—yes—tell me about it." The substance of the call was this: Peter had come across an advertisement (-he didn't say when) advertising a farm for sale. According to Peter there wasn't much else to the item but that simple fact. At least it made no mention of stocks or tools or improvements. Of course, it might not be at all what they wanted, but would and dormer windows. On either side the land appeared to extend Indefinitely, but the size of the picture prevented one telling the amount of actual acreage. "It's a bargain, all right," the agent was declaring with what really seemed to be genuine sincerity rather than the conventional praise that was part of his stock in trade. "Seven rooms— all Improvements—on the trolley—five minutes from churches, stores and school. Land In excellent condition, mostly tilled. Stalls for three horses, stanchions—" "How much." with one eye on Betty, Peter was about to put the vital question, but the agent misunderstood. "Four thousand dollars—half cash, rest on easy terms, part bank mortgage." Yes, that part was all right, but "How many acres?" "Oh^' said the agent In smprlse. "Thought I told you that before. Twenty-six." Peter watched Betty to see how she It. Her brow was furrowed a s if In mental calculation. Then, "Let's look at it," she said noncommittally. That evenJng the agent took them out In his car. After walking over the fields and through the orchards, after inspecting the gray-shingled house, the agent thoughtfully left them to themselves on the veranda to arrive at a decision. Shyly, Betty's hand stole into Peter's. "It seems like home to toe already," she said. "Same here," nodded Peter. "And wasn't It lucky about the amount of land? The twenty-six acres made It possible for us both to give in equally." Then, as Betty's clear gray eyes lifted to his, Peter unburdened his soul. "I've got to confess, Betty," he began. "I saw that ad about the farm some time ago and called up the agent about I t I saw It was a chance, but I was afraid If I told you it was twenty- six acres instead of your prescribed two, you would refuse to consider I t So I pretended that evening I called to hold out for fifty, hoping that when you saw what a crackerjack the place was, you would be willing to give in to twenty-four acres- more, thinking I me, darling;'" Betty's eyes sparkled, as she yielded to the pressure of his arm which was drawing her close in the screen cf the twilight. "Of course, you silly old Peter," she said. "I had telephoned about that ad myself." 1 r TAKE TIME i TO i SMIL NOT L I K t L Y .

Hopes That Had Been Entertained of Their Value Have Proved Fallacious, It Is Said. When our soldiers came back from "ov^r there" they were wildly enthusiastic on the subject of gas masks, and were convinced that they could be utilized to advantage in mines and in factories where poisonous gases are sometimes encountered. The fire departments of our cities thought that they would afford protection to firemen, and were anxious to adopt them. It was a mistake. In a big fire the chief danger, so far as gases are concerned, is from carbon monoxide. But the war mask is of no use against carbon monoxide. It has no value against ammonia gas or ordinary illuminating gas. Furthermore, the conditions in a factory or a mine are very different from those of the open air of a battlefield. In open air a poisonous gas is so diluted that the atmosphere contains only a small percentage of it. Indoors or underground it may easily be so concentrated that the war mask affords no effective protection. The chief constituent of the gases in a mine after a fire or an explosion is the deadly carbon monoxide, which the war mask will not filter o u t Though the United States bureau of mines explained this to the -fire departments, they were unconvinced until th*IV had tried the thing out. Then they agreed. As a protection against smoke the war mask does first-rate service. So far as that goes, it is highly satisfactory, if fitted with a canister containing filter pads. The bureau of mines is of the opinion that the final solution of the mask Betty please meet him during his noon j problem for firemen will be reached by hour and call with him at the agent's, j the construction of a canister three in whose name it was listed? times the war size, and containing, in After a moment, Betty agreed. It was true that Peter had departed the night before without his usual kiss and she had intended to hold him to account. But. after all, her interest in securing a home far outweighed any petty desire for punishment. So she promised to meet him, and hung up the receiver. Peter found her at the time agreed upon and, as his eyes fell on the trim figure In the smart little suit with the perky lint with the mercury wings projecting from either side, he mentally registered the statement that he was a lucky chap. A few minutes later they gazed enraptured at a photograph of a low- •u\eii fiinnhouse with broad veranda' "One who knows nuw vu «im»« when you praise some other womau," replied the Grouch.

One should, of course, not confuse the war mask with the oxygen apparatus used in mines, which renders the wearer independent of any breathing supply from outside. In Its latest development it Is a highly scientific contrivance, and a man equipped with it could live for a while in an atmosphere of pure carbon monoxide. Its Description.

When planning a home there are two things uppermost In the mind of the prospective home owner—permanency and general appearance. Everyone likes an attractive home, and because they build only once in a lifetime they want it to last. For this reason, many people choose brick as the material of which It is to be constructed. The home shown here is an excellent example of a sm«n. comfortable wellitv sleeping room-. The o'd iQ>a» ,.•} I wutilution have been shuffled Into iht dlsonni and plenty of air Is now tbt I demand. The dining room, 13 by 17 feet, la back of the living room and connected with it by an open doorway. It la lighted by a triple window on the side. It In turn opens into the kitchen and ii hallway on one side which leads to the rear bedroom and bathroom. The kitchen Is very happily arranged and Is of the size now considered most efficient for the housewife. Located next to the dining room, it la only a few steps from the stove to the dining table. Off one corner from the kitchen is a delightful little breakfast nook to be used by the family when the work of preparing a big meal can be avoided. A pantry la also shown in the floor plans. In this house we have the happy combination of permanency, beauty and economy. It is modest In its arrangement, l o t at all freakish or unusual and consequently not requiring special fittings which invariably mean : increased expense. It fills all the re- ' qulrements of the family of moderate means and above all Is" a real home. The owner is independent of any landlord who may see fit to raise the rent frequently and out of reason, knowing that the tenant will stay rather than take a chance of seeking new quarters in the face of the present shortage. Instead of paying rent every month, the owner can insure himself a permanent home by paying that same money on a home of this type. Rent receipts are not recognized as collateral by any bank, but a home la tangible security that can be used at g*9*9iSftg ftBfCiftf <Bi-<l *»>«»»>>i> *w»w««.'&wsw*fr»< It Pays to Compromise By H.

And theu these two very positive, very young people set regarding each other defiantly, each secretly hoping the other would weakly yield with,a "Well, have it your own way." But, as it happened, neither did. The circumstances, to be brief, were as follows: Peter and Betty expected to be married in exactly two weeks. and dormer windows. On either side the land appeared to extend Indefinitely, but the size of the picture prevented one telling the amount of actual acreage. "It's a bargain, all right," the agent was declaring with what really seemed to be genuine sincerity rather than the conventional praise that was part of his stock in trade. "Seven rooms— all improvements—on the trolley—five minutes from churches, stores and school. Land In excellent condition, mostly tilled. Stalls for three horses, stanchions—" "How much," with one eye on Betty. Peter was about to put the vital question, but the agent misunderstood. "Four thousand dollars—half cash, rest on easy terms, part bank mortgage." Yes, that part was all right, but "How many acres?" "Oh," said the agent in suiprlse. "Thought I told you that before. Twenty-six." Their itinerary was planned down to Peter watched Betty to see how she t h e ' v e r y last railroad ticket. But— ,k took it.

After walking over the fields and through the orchards, after inspecting the gray-shingled house, the agent thoughtfully left them to themselves on the veranda to arrive at a decision. Shyly, Betty's hand stole into Peter's. "It seems like home to me already," she said. "Same here," nodded Peter. "And wasn't it lucky about the amount of land? The twenty-six acres made it possible for us both to give in equally." Then, as Betty's clear gray eyes lifted fo his, Peter unburdened his soul. "I've got to confess, Betty," he began, "I saw that ad about the farm some time ago and called up the agent about i t I saw It was a chance, but I was afraid if I told you It was twenty- six acres instead of your prescribed two, you would refuse to consider i t So I pretended that evening I called to hold 4 out for fifty, hoping that when you saw what a crackerjack the place was, you would be willing to give in io twenty-four acres more, thinking I Peter boarded, and so did Betty. And their strongest emotion, except their love for each other, was a prejudice against boarding any longer. Betty had visions of a softly-lighted living room not shared with sixteen other roomers, while Peter bad dreams of pies not made with substitutes and then divided Into innumerable small pieces. Out of this feeling had emerged the desire for a real home—a home with a capital H. And gradually had grown a vision of a home in the country with vegetable gardens and cows and chickens and. yes, bees and a pig. As the fancy grew, Peter saw himself a fullfledged farmer, able to look the cost of living defiantly in the face. That is he saw himself a farmer in between times when he was not earning his salary as a modestly paid employee of Campbell & Westcott, wholesale grocers. Therein lav the hitch.

In the first place it Is set back from the sidewalk on a terrace which gives the builder an opportunity to put in an imposing approach. In this case it is concrete stairs with a landing or secondary sidewalk which in turn branches out to run around the house. The broad front porch, recessed under the sloping gable roof, is an Important feature and something which has many advantages. Extending the full width of the house, it affords an excellent recreation center for the family and a playground for the children. Stout brick pillars support the roof while a rail of brick' extends around on each side. Everything about this modest home gives the impression of strength and security. A roof dormer above gives light to a high attic which can be very easily converted into an extra bedroom or two if needed. Set back on the terrace, with its Imposing entrance and front porch this home Is well worth while considering and studying.

FAMOUS HOUSE STILL STANDS Mansion Erected by Thomas Hancock on Beacon Hill, Boston, Splendid Piece of Architecture. The first house of distinction to ne built on Beacon hill, in Roston, the highest of three elevations which gave to the city the name of "Trl-mountain." and which was the center of military, social and religious life, waa erected by Thomas Hancock, an uncle of the Revolutionary hero. This was In 1737. It was a beautiful mansion, built of stone, with the ground laid out In orchards and gardens, and It was here that the first tree nursery In Boston was started. Inside great taste was shown in the furnishings, the drawingroom containing a rare set of bird'seye maple, covered with red damask. Hancock was a lavish host, and gave a famous breakfast to the officers of the Frpnch fleet. While the French troops were In Boston forty or more of the officers dined at the house every day.

The present day large living room has entirely supplanted the old idea of double parlors. Instead of two rooms as the custom was a few years back, the space is given over to one large room, larger by far than any other room in the house. This living room, ns it is now en I led, Is invariably provided with a fireplace. In t h s notice the f r o n t bedroom fmcits "IT 'he l i v i n g room.

Betty had not been perusing the agricultural bulletins for nothing. "Very well." said Peter stiffly. "But, If we are going in for this sort of thing, we ought to do it on a big enough scale to make it worth while, with enough acres to raise the hay to feed the horses that do the plowing that prepares the fields that yield the crops*." "It sounds like the house that Jack built," giggied Betty. Then, seriously, "Well, all I can say is that I won't be a party to any such foolishness. Besides, after saying right along that you would he satisfied with twenty-five acres, you are jacking it up to fifty! It's absurd." And that is the point at which the story begins. Peter went home very shortly and tried to forget that he and Betty were Indulging in their first quarrel. But even as he attempted to interest himself in an informing volume for back to the landers, Betty's piquant little face as she defied him danced between the lines. "Two acres", at most!" she had insisted. You see Peter had seen In the paper an advertisement of a farm for sale with considerably more than two acres of land, and a telephone con- Tp w!m®mmmm^ Betty's eyes sparkled, as "sue ywvied to the pressure of his arm which was drawing her close in the screen cf the twilight.

When our soldiers came back from "ov^r there" they were wildly enthusiastic on the subject of gas masks, and were convinced that they could be utilized to advantage in mines and in factories where poisonous gases are sometimes encountered. The fire departments of our cities thought that they would afford protection to firemen, and were anxious to adopt them. It was a mistake. In a big fire the chief danger, so far as gases are concerned, is from carbon monoxide. But the war mask is of no use against carbon monoxide. It has no value against ammonia gas or ordinary illuminating gas. Furthermore, the conditions in a factory or a mine are very different from those of the open air of a battlefield. In open air a poisonous gas is so •»/-k^„ „-h/» .knows how to smile when you praise amine uura nvui.U | replied the Grouch. -.<-.. .-,...--..,.531 The Genial Host, "Was it a joy ride?" "For everybody but me," answered Mr. Chuggins. "I was buying the gasoline and conducting the Interviews with the police." vinced him that it was a decidedly diluted that the atmosphere contains worth-while buy. Hence it was up to him, by fair means or foul, to persuade Betty likewise. Next morning Betty was summoned from breakfast by a telephone call. Peter didn't usually call her at such an early hour. Eight o'clock it was. He must have just reached the office. "Hello—yes—this is Betty—yes—tell me about It." The substance of the call was this: Peter had come across an advertisement (he didn't say when) advertising a farm for sale. According to Peter there wasn't much else to the Item but that simple fact. At least It made no mention of stocks or tools or improvements. Of course, it might not be at all whnt they wanted, but would only a small percentage of it. Indoors or underground it may easily be so concentrated that the war mask affords no effective protection. The chief constituent of the gases In a mine after a fire or an explosion is the deadly carbon monoxide, which t h e war mask will not filter out. Though the United States bureau of mines explained this to the -fire departments, they were unconvinced until they had tried the thing out. Then they agreed. As a protection against smoke t h e war mask does first-rate service. So far as that goes, it is highly satisfactory, if fitted with a canister containing filter pads. The bureau of mines is of the opinion that the final solution of the mask Betty please meet him during his noou 1 problem for flTemen will be reached by He Went, Anyway.

After a moment, Betty agreed. It was true that Peter had departed the night before without his usual kiss and she had intended to hold him to account. But. after all. her Interest in securing a home far outweighed any petty desire for punishment. So she promised to meet him, and hung up the receiver. Peter found her at the time agreed upon and, as his eves fell on the trim figure In the smart little suit with the perky hat with the mercury wings projecting from either side, he mentally registered the statement that he was ii lucky chap. A few minutes later they gazed enruptured nt n photocrraph of a low- •ii\ei] farmhouse with broad veranda the construction of a canister three times the war size, and containing, in addition to the war filling (charcoal, lime and filter pads), special absorbents for ammonia gas and carbon monoxide. One should, of course, not confuse the war mask with the oxygen apparatus used in mines, which renders t h e wearer Independent of any breathing supply from outside. In its latest development It is a highly scientific contrivance, and a man equipped with It could live for a w-hile in an atmosphere of pure carbon monoxide. Its Description.

The men wanted a higher rate Nearly 5,000 men were involved when the strike started and the wage loaf amounted to more than. $2,500,000. ii'"> v ••w v;- * . *> ri - f- . : ..¾ .^i-a PINCKNEY DISPATCH 4 * 9 R N II I I * THE GREAT SHADOW By A.

It was from booka and the tulk of others that I learned bow the heavy cavalry charged, how they rode over the famous cuirassiers, and how they were cut to piece* before they could get back. From them, too, 1 learned all about the successive assaults, and how the Belglafis fled, and bow Pack and Kempt stood Arm. But of my own knowledge I can only speak of what we saw during that long day In the rifts of the smoke and the lulls of the firing, and It's just of that that I will tell you. We were on the right of the line and in reserve, for the Duke was afraid that Boney might work round on that side and get at him from behind, so our three regiments, with another British brigade and the Hanoverians, w e i i placed there to be ready for anything. There were two brigades of light cavalry, too, but the French attack was all from the front, so It was late In the day before we were really wanted. The English battery which fired the first gun was still banging away on our left, and a German one was hard at work upon our right, so that we were wrapped round with the smoke, but we were not so hidden as to screen us from a line of French guns opposite, for a score of round shot came piping through the air and plumped right Into the heart of us. As I heard the scream of them pass my ear my head went down like a diver, but our sergeant gave me a prod In the back with the handle of his halbert "Don't be so blasted polite," said he. "When you're hit you can bow once and for all." There was one of those balls that knocked five men Into a bloody mash, and I saw it lying on the ground afterwards, like a crimson football. Another went through the adjutant's horse with a plop, like a stone in the mud, broke its back and left It lying like a burst gooseberry. Three more fell farther to the right, and by the stir and cries we could tell that they had all told. "Ah, James, you've lost a good mount," says Major Reed, Just In front of me, looking down at the adjutant, whose boots and breeches were all running with blood.

CHAPTER XII—Continued. —11— From where we stood It was a sight fcow that was worth coming over the • e a s to s e e On our own ridge was the checker of red and blue, stretching light away to a village over two miles ifrom us. It was whispered from man to man In the ranks, however, that there was too much of the blue and too little of the red, for the Belgians had shown on the day before that their hearts were too soft for the work, and w e had twenty thousand of them for comrades. Then even our British troops were half made up of militiamen and recruits, for the pick of the old Peninsula regiments were on the ocean In transports, coming back from •ome fool's errand with our kinsfolk of America. But for all that we could «ee the bearskins of the Guards, two strong brigades of them, and the bonnets of the Highlanders, and the blue of the old German legion, and the red lines of Pack's brigade, and Kempt's brigade, and the green-dotted riflemen in front; and we knew that, come what might, these were men who would hide where they were placed, and that they had a man to lead them who would place them where they should bide. Of the French we had seen little, save the twinkle of their fires and a few horsemen here and there on the curves of the ridge; but as we stood and waited thprt> cnm? tauld^nlv JI "I cn\p a cool flftj for him tn Glai sfcsu^ *^*^Ai|wifi> S ^ - J ^ f w ^ w e ^ & s a ^ ' ^ ^ s s i G i ^ a ^ ^ - v ^ ^ fhpl r W".hnlp ..ormv /wiinc. flnrV'H rip* nvvr 'iiiv iuw urn wmcn nan mu mem—»npade after brigade, and division after division—until the broad slope In Its whole length and depth was blue with their uniforms and bright with the glint of their weapons. It seemed that they would never have done, still pouring over and pouring over, while our men leaned on their muskets and smoked their pipes, looking down at this grand gathering and listening to what the old soldiers, who had fought the French before, had to say about them. Then, when the infantry had formed in long, deep masses, their guns came whirling and bounding down the elope, and it was pretty to nee how smartly they unlimbered and were ready for action. And then, at • stately trot, down came the cavalry— thirty regiments at the least, with plume and breastplate, twinkling •word and fluttering lance—forming Up at the flanks and rear in long, shifting, glimmering lines. "Them's tne chaps,1* cried our old sergeant. "They're gluttons to fight, they ere. And you see them regiment* with the great high hats In the middle, a bit behind the farm? That's the Guard—twenty thousand of them, my sons, and all picked men—grayheaded devils that have done nothing but fight since they were as high as my gaiters. They've three men to our two, and two guns to one, and, by gad! they'll make you recruities wish yon were back In Argyle street before they have finished with you." He was not E cheering man, our sergeant, but then he had been in every fight since Corunna, and had a medal with seven clasps upon his breast, so that he had a right to talk In his own fashion. When the Frenchmen had arranged themselves just out of cannon snot we s a w a small group of horsemen, all In a blaze with silver and scarlet and gold, ride swiftly between the divisions ; and as they went a roar of cheering burst out from either side of them, and we could see arms outstretched to them and hands waving. An Instant later the noise had died away and the two armies stood facing each other In absolute deadly silence— a sight which often comes back to me In my dreams. Then of a iradden there was a lurch among the men Just In front of us, a thin column wheeled off from the dense blue clump, and came swinging up toward the farmhouse which lay below us. It had not taken fifty paces before a gun banged «rat from an English battery on our left and the battle of Waterloo had kegtm- It la not for me to tell yon the story of that battle, and Indeed I should have kept far enough away from such A thing had It not happened that our own fa turn—those of the three simple folk who came from the border country— were all Just as much mixed up In it as those of any king or emperor of them all. To tell the honest truth, 1 hare learned more about that battle from what I have read than from what I M « , tor how much could I sea with mnior. that tho men bad better, UP iiwon, uovr i n a i imr g u n s utiVy gUi. uur ranee?" "Tut!" said the other. "They are young, James, and It will do them good," '"They'll get enough of It before the day's done," grumbled the other, but at that moment Colonel Reynell saw that the Rifles and the Fifty-second were down ou either side of us, so we had the order to stretch ourselves out too. Precious glad we were when we could hear the shot whining like hungry dogs within a few feet of our backs. Even now a thud and a splash every minute or BO, with a yelp of pain and a drumming of boots upon the ground, told us that we were still losing heavily. A thin rain was falling and the damp air held the smoke low, so that we could only catch glimpses of what was doing Just in front of us, though the roar of the guns told us that the battle was general all along the lines. Four hundred of them were all crashing at once now, and the noise was enough to split the drum of your ear. Indeed, there was not one of us but had a singing In his head for many a long day afterward. Just opposite us, on the slope of a hill, was a French gun, and we could see the men serving her quite plainly. They were small, active men with very tight breeches and high hats with great, straight plumes sticking up from them, but they worked like sheep shearers, ramming and sponging and training. There were fourteen when I saw them first and only four left standing at the last, but they were working away Jnst i\s hard as ever. The farm that they called Hougoumont was down in front of us, and all morning we could see that a terrible fight was going on there, for the walls to fear upon his right, and so he began to use us in another way. The French had pushed their skirmishers past the farm, and they lay among the young COrn In front of us, popping at the gunners, so that three piece* out of six on our left were lying with their men strewed In the mud all round them. But the Duke had his eyes everywhere, and up he galloped at that moment, a thin, dark, wiry man, with very bright eyes, a hooked nose, and a big cockade on his cap. There were a dozen officers at his heels, all as merry as If It were a foxhunt ; but of the dozen there was not one left In the evening. "Warm work, Adams," said he as he rode up. "Very warm, your grace," said our general. "But we can outstay them at it, J think ! T u t : tut! we cannot let skirmishers silence a battery. Just drlvs those fellows out of that, Adams." Then first I knew what a devil's thrill runs through a man when he la given a bit of fighting to do. Up to now we had Just lain and been killed, which is the weariest kind of work. Now it was our turn, and, my word, we were ready for It Up we Jumped, the whole brigade, in a four-deep line, and rushed at the cornfield as hard as we could tear. The skirmishers snapped at us as we came, and then away they bolted like corn-crakes, their heads down, their backs rounded, and their muskets at the trail. Half of them got away, but we caught up the others, the officer first, for he was a very fat man who could not run f a s t It gave me quite a turn when I saw Rob Stewart on ray right stick his bayonet into the man's broad back and heard him howl like a lost soul. There was no quarter in that field, and It was butt or point for all of them. The men's blood was aflame, and little wonder, for those wasps had been stinging all morning without our being able so much as see them. And now, as we broke through the farther edge of the cornfield we got in front of the smoke, and there was the whole French army in position before us, with only two meadows and a narrow lane between us. We set up a yell as we saw them, and away we should have pone, slap at them. If we rJ?~x%trr***"*. -••->-:* , , , _ r * . „ . „ ^ , - * « - - ^ young soiniers" never tmnK mat narm their midst. But the Duke had cantered his horse beside us as we advanced,, and now he roared something to the general, and the officers all rode In front of our line, holding out their arms for us to stop. There was a blowing of bugles, a pushing and a shoving, with the sergeants cursing and digging us with their halberts, and in less time than it takes me to write it there was the brigade In three neat little squares, all bristling with bayonets and in echelon, as jthey call It, so that each could fire across the face of the other. It was the saving of us, as even so young a soldier as I was could very easily see. And we had none too much time, either. There was a low, rolling hill on our right flank, and from behind this there came a sound like nothing on this earth so much as the beat of the waves on Berwick eoast when the wind blows from the e a s t The earth was all shaking with that dull, roaring sound, and the air was full of It. "Steady, Seventy-first, for God's sake, steady!" shrieked the voice of our colonel behind us, but In front was nothing but the green, gentle slope of the grassland, all mottled with daisies and dandelion. And then suddenly, over the curve, we saw eight hundred brass helmets rise up, all In a moment, each with a long tag of horsehair flying from Its crest, and then eight hundred fierce brown faces, all pushed forward, and glaring out from between the ears of as many horses. There was an Instant of gleaming breast-plates, waving swords, tossing manes, fierce red nostrils opening and shutting, and hoofs pawing the air before us. and then down came the line of muskets, and . „, , ,, , , our bullets smacked up against their and the windows and the orchard \ a r r a o r l l k p t h e c ] a t f p r o f fl n a i l 8 t 0 r m hedges were all flame and smoke, and , u p o n a w l n d o w . T firod w l r h t h e r e s t , there rose such shrieking and crying | a n d t n e n rammod d m v n a n o t h p r c n a r g e from it as I never heard before. It was half burned down, and shattered with balls, and ten thousand men were hammering at the gates, but four hundred guardsmen held It In the morning, and two hundred held it In the evening, and no French foot was ever set within its threshold. But how they fought those Frenchmen ! Their lives were no more to them than the mud under their f e e t There w a s one—I can gee him now—a stontlsh, ruddy man on a crutch. He hobbled up alone In a lull of the firing to the side gate of Hougoumont and he beat upon i t screaming to bis men to come after him. For five minutes he stood there, strolling about In front of the gun-barrels which spared him, but at last a Brunswick skirmisher in the orchard flicked out his brain with a rifle-shot And he was only one of many, for all day, when they did not come in masses they came in twos and threes, with as brave a face as if the whcle army was at their heels. So we lay all morning looking down at the fight at Hougoumont; bat soon the Duke saw that there was nothing as fast as I could, staring out through the smoke In front of me, where I could see some long, thin thing, which flapped slowly backward and forward. A bugle sounded for us to cease firing, and a whiff of wind camp to clear the curtain from in front of us, and then we could see what had happened. (TO B E CONTINUED.)

Export sales were heavy and demand for cash wheat for export good at firm prices. Excellent demand for cash corn. Flour demand improved slightly as indicated by better milling demand for wheat. At the farmers national grain dealers association convention on the 2nd the president of the association announced as an association slogan "Buy a barrel of flour now while the price is right."

Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a very good medicine. When I was a girl going to school I got all run-down and weak due to hard studying. I was coming into womanhood and this medicine built me up in fine shape in just a short space of time. I also took it about seven years ago during expectancy and it helped me wonderfully. I had practically no suffering and my baby was strong and healthy and has always been. 'Hie ' Prescription' has done wonders for me. I think it the only medicine for weak women."—MRS* CARL GUELL, J R . , 290 9th Street. Good looks in woman do not depend upon age, but upon health. You never see a good-looking woman who is weak, run-down. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the best women's tonic there is. It is 50 years old, and its age testifies to its goodness.

"Yes, we expect her downstairs for Christmas day." "Well, then I think. Jane, that you should have great cause for rejoicing at your house—Christmas tree, or no Christmas tree." "I had not thought of that Florence, but you are right." "Sometimes, I think we lose the real spirit of Christmas," continued Jane, "by thinking that Christmas comes from what we get or give instead of realizing that it is right in our hearts." By this time the friends had come to the parting of the way, and with a friendly nod and "Goodbye," went to their homes to vision anew the possibilities of Christmas. Billy.

EXCUSE FOR CEASING WORK The Russian working people have always seized upon Christmas as an excuse for ceasing all work for a somewhat lengthy period—sometimes for a month. Before the recent revolution "Kolenda" was the celebration on Christmas eve, when the p e a s a n t s gathered about the houses of the nobles, sang carols and scrambled for the coins tossed to them from the windows. Then came a great masquerade, when p e a s a n t s of all ages dressed themselves to represent animals, the idea being to perpetuate the memory of the lowliness of the Saviour's birth in the stable.

"Possibly," answered Miss Cayenne; "but it Is not the kind of poetry that can properly be associated with hymns." • Many prisons and penitentiaries have baseball teams composed of inmates, and the national sport has done much to revive the heulth and spirits of prisoners.

The prison baseball field has a splendidly graded surface, and there are bleachers for spectators. The team plays Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Visiting teams come from New Jersey and Connecticut. The prison team has won from some of the best semi-professional nines in these state*. The Eastern penitentiary in Philadelphia has long maintained a baseball team, and has developed many good players. Practice and Theory. "Jubbs was a crank about the simple life."

BIG INCREASE IN REVENUE TAX District Now Ranks Fifth In The Volume of Collections, Says Deputy Collector Neely. Detroit. — Michigan's automobile centers in the first internal revenue district, comprising 39 counties in the eastern part of the state, produced non-commercial cars, trucks and accessories to the value of $1,249,506,- 914.57 during 1920, according to figures compiled by Deputy Collector Clarence Neely. The estimate is based on the collection of the 5 per cent tax on passenger cars, the 3 per cent levy on trucks and the 5 per cent collected from the manufacturers of accessories by the federal government. According to Mr. Neely's report the total collections of internal revenue in the first Miohigan district, amounting to $258,636,659.41, is a gain of 117 per cent ovat the amount collected during 19,19, when $119,178,- 512.11 was collected. This increase-''in internal revenue is the largest in the country with the exception of that of New Mexico, where collections totalling less than $5,000,000 show a gain of 269 per cent. Of the total 1920 collection, the largest portion is represented by income tax of which $168,418,182.94 was collected. The manufacturers of automobiles, trucks and accessories contributed to the total with taxes amounting to $58,675,094.21. Miscellaneous collections, representing all other forms of internal revenue paid in the di3trict totalled $31,543,- 382.26.

C H A P T E R X I I — C o n t i n u e d . — 1 2 — I h a a expected to find half that regiment of horse lying on the g r o u n d ; but whether It was that their breastplates had shielded them, or whether, being young and a little shaken at their coming, we had fired high, our volley had done no very great harm. About thirty horses lay about, three of them together within ten yards of me, the middle one right on its back, with Its four legs in the air, and it was one of these t h a t I had seen flapping through the smoke. Then there were eight or ten dead men, and about as many wounded, sitting dazedly o n ' the grass for the most part, though one was shouting "Vive l'Empereur!" a t the top o*T his voice. Another fellow who had been shot in the thigh— a great, black-mustached chap he was, too—leaned his back against his dead horse, and, picking up his carbine, fired as coolly as If he had been shooting for a prize, and hit Angus Myres, who was only two feet from me, right through the forehead. Then he out with his hand to get another carbine t h a t lay near, but before he could reach it big Hodgson, who was the pivot-man of the grenadier company, ran ont and passed bis bayonet through his throat, which was a pity, for he seemed to be a very fine man. At first I thought that the cuirassiers we knew that that must stop the cannon lor a minute, and give us a chance of h i t i i a * tmck. And we hit back pretty ha»d, too, that time, for we were cold and vicious and savage, and I, for one, felt that 1 cared no more for the horsemen than if they had been so many sheep on CorTiemulr. One gets past being afraid or thinking of one's own sKin after a while, and you just feel that you want to m a k e some one pay for all you have gone through. We took our change out of the lancers that time, for they had no breastplates to %hield them, and we cleared seventy of them out of their saddles at a volley. Maybe if we could have seen seventy mothers weeping for their lads we should not have felt so pleased over it, but then men are just brutes when they are fighting, and have as much thought as two bull-pups when they've got one another by the throttle. Then the colonel did a wise stroke, for he reckoned that this would stave off the cavalry for five minutes, so he wheeled us Into line and got us back into a deeper hollow, out of reach of the guns, before they could open again. This gave us time to breathe, and we wanted it, too, for the regiment had been melting away like an icicle In the sun. But bad as It was for us, it was a deal worse for some of the others. T h e whole of the Dutch-Belgians were cut off by this time helter skelter, fifteen thousand of them, and t h e r e were great gaps left In our line, through which the French cavalry rode as pleased them best. Then the French guns had been too many and too good for ours, and our heavy horse h a d been cut to bits, so that things were none too merry with us. On t h e other hand, Hougoumont, a blood-soaked ruin, was still ours, and every British regiment was firm, though, to tell the honest truth, as a man is bound to do, there were a sprinkling of red coats among the blue ones who made for the rear. But these were lads and stragglers. the faint h e a r t s that are found everywhere, and I say again t h a t no regiment flinched. It was little we could see of the battle, but a man would be blind not to know that all the fields behind us were covered with ftytng ,jiii«x Ilul—fchikrt— .±ixmii£h„_jn7.a—£UX_the toward the batteries on our Eight and left r a t h e r than on us, but we sent ont two companies of the Ninety-fiftb to keep them in check. It was strange to hear t h e crackling kind of noise that they made, for both sides were using the rifle. An officer stood among the French skirmishers, a tall, lean man with a mantle over his shoulders, and as our fellows came forward he ran cut midway between the two parties arid stood as a fencer would, with his sword up and his head back. I can see him now, with his lowered eyelids, and the kind of sneer t h a t he had upon his face. On this the subaltern of the Rifles, who was a fine wellgrown lad, ran forward and drove full tilt at him with one of the queer, crooked swords that the riflemen carry. They came together like two rams, for each ran at the other, and down they tumbled at the shock, but the Frenchman was below. Our man broke his sword short off. and took the other's blade through his left arm, but he was the stronger man, and he managed to let the life out of his enemy with the jagged stump of his blade. 1 thought that the French skirmishers would have shot him down, but not a trigger was drawn, and he got back to his company with one sword througt his arm and half another in his band, C H A P T E R X I I I . T h e End of the S t o r m . Of all the things that seem strange In t h a t great battle, now that I look back upon It, there was nothing that was queerer than the way in which it acted on my comrades. F o r some took It as though it had been their daily meat, without question or change, and others p a t t e r e d out prayers from the first gun-fire to the last, and others again cursed and swore in a way that was creepy to listen to. T h e r e was one, my own left-hand mate, Mike T h r e a d i n g h a m , who kept telling'about his maiden aunt, Sarah, and how she had left the money which had been promised to him to a home for the children of drowned sailors. Again and again he told me this story, and yet, when the battle was over, he took his oath t h a t he had never opened his lips all day.

Their horses had swerveu at uui volley, and they had raced past our square and taken the fire of the tw« other ones beyond. Then they broke through a hedge, and coming on a regiment of,Hanoverians who were in line, they treated them as they would have treated us if we had not been sp quick, and cut them to pieces in an Instant. It was dreadful to see the big Germans running and screaming, while the cuirassiers stood up in their stirrups to have a better sweep for their long, heavy swords, and cut and stabbed without mercy. I do not believe that a hundred men of t h a t regiment were left alive, and the Frenchmen came back across our front, shouting at us and waving their weapons, which were crimson down to the hilts. This they did to draw our fire, but the colonel was too old a soldier, for we could have done little harm at the distance, and they would have been among us before we could reload. These horsemen got behind the ridge on our right again, and ^e^kney*-very well that if we opened u p b o r n the squares they would be down upon us In a twinkle. On the other hand, it was hard to bide as we were, for they had passed the word to a battery of twelve guns which formed up a few hundred yards away from us, but out of our sight, sending their balls Just over the brow and down into the midst of us, which is called a plunging fire. And one of their gunners ran up to the top of the slope and stuck a handspike Into the wet earth, to give them a guide, under the very muzzles of the whole brigade, none of whom fired a shot at him, each leaving him to the other. Ensign Samson, who was the youngest subaltern In the regiment, ran out from the square and pulled down the handspike, but quick as a jack after a minnow a lancer came flying over the ridge, and he made such a thrust from behind that not only his point but his pennon, too, came out between the second and third buttons of t h e lad's runic. " H e l e n ! H e l e n ! " he shouted, and fell dead on his face, while the lancer, blown half to pieces with musket balls, toppled over beside him, still holding on to his weapon, so they lay together with t h a t dreadful bond still connecting them. Bnt when the battery opened there was no time for us to think of anything: else. A square is a very good way of meeting a horseman, but there Is no worse one of taking a cannonball, so we soon learned when they began to cut red seiros through us, until o a r e a r s were weary of the slosh and aplash when h a r d Iron met living flesh and blood. After ten minutes of it V e moved our square a hundred paces to t h e r i g h t bat we left anotfctf s q u a r e behind us, for a hundred and twenty men and seven officers showed w h e r e we had been standing. Then t h e gtms found us again, and we triad to open out into line, but in an Instant t h e horseman—lancers they t h i s .time— were upon us from t h e b r a e . I tell you we were glad hear the thud of their hoof*, for poleon had set twenty thousand of his men to face them, which made up for ours that had bolted, and left us much as we began. T h a t was all dark to us, however, and there was a time when the French horsemen had flooded In between us and the rest of the army, that we thought we were the only brigade left standing, and had set our teeth with the intention of selling our lives as dearly as we could. At t h a t time it was between four and five in the afternoon, and we had had nothing to eat, the most of us, since the night before, and were soaked with rain into the bargain. It had drizzled off and on all day, but for the last few hours we had not had a thought to spare either upon the weather or our hunger. Now we began to look around and tighten our waistbelts, and ask who was hit, and who was spared. I was glad to see Jim, with his face all blackened with powder, standing on my right rear, leaning on his fire-lock. H e saw me looking at him, and shouted out to know if I were hurt. "All right, Jim." I answered. "I fear I'm here on a wild-goose chase," said he gloomily, "but it's not over yet. By God, I'll have him or he'll have m e ! " He had brooded so much on his wrong, had poor Jim, t h a t I really believe It had turned his head, for he had a glare in his eyes as he spoke t h a t was hardly human. He was always a man t h a t took even a little thing to heart, and since Edle had left him I am sure t h a t he was no longer his own master. It was at this time that we saw two single fights which they tell me were common enough in the battles of old, before men were trained in masses. As we lay in the hollow, two horsemen came spurring along the ridge in front of us, riding as hard as hoof could rattle. The first was an English dragoon, his face right down on his horse's mane, with a French cuirassier, an old, gray-headed fellow, thundering behind him on a big, black mare. Our chaps set up a hooting as they came flying on, for it seemed a shame to see an Englishman run like t h a t ; but as they swept across our frtmt we saw where t h e trouble lay. T h e dragoon had dropped his sword and was unarmed, while the other was pressing him so close t h a t he could not get a weapon. At last, stung m a y b e by our hooting, he made up his mind to chance i t His eye fell on a lance beside a dead F r e n c h m a n , so h e swerved his horse to let the other p a s s , and hopping off cleverly enough, he gripped hold of i t But the other was too tricky for him, and was on him like a s h o t The dragoon t h r u s t up with the lance, but the o t h e r turned and sliced him through the shmrider-blade. It was all done in an l n a t a n t and the Frenchman cantered his horse up the brae, showing his teeth a t us over his shoulder like s snarling dog. T h a t w a s one to them, but we scored one for us presently. T h e y had pushed forward a skirmish-line whose fire w a s U f a i t:i u i u u v.an m •a i c t u c u j u v i them, and I was thinking all the time about the old folks at home, and about cousin F i l e with her saucy, dancing eyes, and De Llssac with his cat's .whiskers, and all the doings at West Inch which had ended by bringing us here on the plains of Belgium as a cockshot for two hundred and fifty cannon. During all this time the roaring of those guns had been something dreadful to listen to, hut now they suddenly died away, though it was like the lull in a thunder-storm when one feels that a worse crash is coming hard at the fringe of it. There was still a mighty noise on the distant wing, where the Prussians were pushing their way onward, but that was two miles away. The other batteries, both French and English, were silent, and the smoke cleared so t h a t the armies could see a little of each other. It was a dreary sight along our ridge, for there seemed to be Just a few scattered knots of red, and the lines of green where the German legion stood, while the masses of the French appeared to be as thick as ever, though, of course, we knew that they must have lost many thousands In these attacks. We heard a great cheering and shouting from among them, and then suddenly all their batteries opened together with a roar which made the din of the earlier part seem nothing In comparison. It might well be twice as loud, for every battery was twice as near, being moved right up to pointblank range, with huge m a s s e s of horse between and behind them to guard them from attack. When that devil's roar burst upon our e a r s there was not a man down to the drummer-boys who did not understand w h a t it meant. It was Napoleon's last great effort to crush us. There were but two more hours of light, and if we could hold our own for those, all would be well. Starved and weary and spent, we prayed that we might have strength to load and stab and fire while a man of us stood upon his f e e t (TO BE CONTINUED.) L F U R N I S H E D BY U. 8.

Particularly is this the case with regard to exhibits made at the International Live Stock Show recently held at Chicago. First and foremost to tin* average farmer will appeal the fact t h a t Canada carried off the s w e e p s t a k e s for all wheat, and that out of a total of twenty-five prizes, Canada took twenty. In oats the Grand Championship was won by a f a n n e r living" in the Province of Alberta. Canada also was awarded the championship for Durum wheat, while for Flint Corn out of a lotal of ten prizes. Canada took first, second, third, sixth and seventh. Not only in grains did Canada prove her right to rank as a first-class agricultural country, but she carried off many prizes for cattle, horses, sheep and hogs, a partial list of which follows : Cattle, Canada was awarded the championship for Grade S h o r t h o r n s ; also in the College Special class. Canada gained first, fourth and sixth prizes.

WHEN BLANKET IS REMOVED Russians May Be a Great People When the Bolshevik Cloud Has Been Disalpated. Nobody can tell what a horse looks like until his blanket is taken off. Who knows! When this unspeakable bolshevik screen is removed maybe the Russians will emerge as a great race. Every people has done bard and queer things at times, "Gtrard" writes In the Philadelphia Press. Oxford university Is, perhaps, the Intellectual center of the earth, and yet Oxford was so benighted that It burned the books of John Milton, as blasphemous. It was Oxford, also, which declared during the Revolutionary war, "that Americans as a people have forfeited their lives and their fortunes In the Justice of a state." Now look at the other side. In that same war, the czar of Russia refused to sell 20.000 soldiers to King George to fight against George Washington. And we, here in the United States constantly abuse the Turk, who kills an Armenian now and then, and forget how we killed the Indians for three centuries. On one occasion, the zealous Christians of New England, not far from Harvard, shut up 700 Pequiuot in a modern prison and, according to John Fiske, all but five were burned to death or murdered. So ' say that in the next century (he J'r.<-:."'- and the Turk may travel around the circle as fast as Jehu liull and Unele Jonathan have in the last hundred er two years.

Teeple said they were too busy to attend to the matter and requested us to write an ad. usin1 our own judgment about what to say You all kuow what this finiT is up against right now THEY NEED MONEY Just imagine yourself in their predicament and ask yourself if you too, would not need it. And we are sure, knowing the community as well as we do. that every man or woman who owes this concern—the oldest mercantile lirm in this part of the county—will come down this week and pay their accounts in full if possible. If this is not possible, give them what you can on account, and if you are not just at present in a position to do either, you surely can come down and give them a hearty,sympathetic handshake and tell themyou will do the best you can as quickly as possible. The future of this concern is largely in your hands at the present critical time. What are you going to do about it ? They are at home under the opera house with a small slock of hardware. The stock of implements was not destroyed, and they will be glad to see their many friends at nil lime*. .' r. . .ijit * • • , * w .

Claxton, federal commissioner of education, in hiB annual report made public Dec. 9. No relief for the situation is seen by the commissioner, who added that while from 110,000 to possibly 150,000 new teachers would be needed during the coming year, there would be about 30,000*prepared teachers to fill the va cancies, or a deficit of a t least 80,000 teachers,—Moderator Topics. alter arratnertne buildings were soid, moved away, or torn down.

Buenos Aires. —Earthquake shocks •vhlch late last week destroyed several towns along the Argentine slope of the Andes mountains were the most severe experienced in this country since I860, when half the city of Mendjza was laid in ruins. Reports from the area where the shocks were heaviest indicate great loss of life and prope.-ry, upwards of 200 bodies having DCM taken from wrecks of buildings. At Tresportenas more than 100 polished and at Costa ue Araujo more were killed. It is feared more victims are buried under ruins in each town. At Tresportenas. La Vulle and La Central not a house was left standing, and those not destroyed were left in a badly damaged condition. No estimate of the number of persons injured has been made.

The church at La Valle was laid in ruins and the municipal building's walls were cracked and the structure was likely to fall at any moment.

The water from one of these geysers reached a hight of about 15 feet and formed a pool in which two persons were drowned. A Red Cross ambulance has reached the village and set to work to rescue sufferers who still may be alive in the ruins. l U ' i - t k K n r i e d lh-c 10, IbliO.) H a y .

Athens.—Contantine of Greece, removed from the throne by action of the Allied powers in 1917, and called back by the recent plebiscite to resume his former status, returned to Athens Sunday. He came into the city by train and was received at the Place De'La Concorde. Contantine's train steamed into the ' Laurion station, about 100 yards from the Place de la Concorde, with the returning monarch, like an ordinary ! traveler. Constantine, however, was greeted by the cheering of thousands of persons, who had been awaiting his : arrival since 9 o'clock in the morning. In a carriage drawn by six horses, with outriders, and followed by troops a procession, with Constantine at its head, started for the stadium. u r e s h a v e b e e n h e a \ \ e x p o r t s a l e s of w h e a t a n d g r e a t d i f f i c u l t y in s e c u r i n g c a s h w h e a t t o fiil old sal'-*.

Brighter Prospects ior Pinckney The Coming Year OPTIMISM IS NOW PREVALENT The year 1920 is about gone, leaving behind for this vicinity a record of death and disaster probably unparalelled in the history of Pinckney. The Grim Reaper has cut off in the prime of life several of our best citizens, men and women whose loss to the community cannot be replaced. Mysterious fires have wiped out. property— losses the town can ill afford to sustain. Those who have passed to the Great Beyond during the past year can never be replaced, but their good influence is still with us and will remain aa long as memory remains. The damage by fire can and will be met by renewed efforts which will more than replace the buildings and stocks of merchandise lost So much for the darker side of the old year—Let's take a look at the other, brighter side. During the past year the garage has been given up by E. D. Cappel who has taken over the bakery, putting it on a sound, reliable basis. He has left the garage in the hands of Wm. H. Meyer, a practical and conscientious garage man who has put the Pinckney Garage in satisfactory operation. W. G. Reeves has opened up a tord sales and service station in Pinckney and is giving service equal to the stiff requirements of the Ford Company. The Standard Oil Company has placed p operation - its Pinckney Btation which now furnishes this community and nearby towns with its pro- . . t ducts from hs re.

Mr. Ford returned to Pinckney the following day, inspected the property and announced his willingness to purchase it and start factory here to employ fifty or tty men. R. Clinton, whoownan equity in the property was fought in the conference and negations for the purchase of the Ltrolling interest, owned by a :, Finn, a real estate man of Dent, were agreed upon.

Think how deeply must the shortening of the (Jays, as fall comes on apace, affect the imagination of the primitive. The sun, their all powerful deity who gives them warmth and growth, and life, wanes and grows sluggish and sick until daylight becomes so short that the terror-stricken primitive hearts pray and plead and Invoke the malign and baneful gods to remove their pernicious Influence from their dmrly beloved sun-god. How great Is the joy and feasting on the first dny, the New Year, when lie starts slowly hark to them, to gain day by day a greater vigor and beauty, until in June he readies the culmination of his power. So It is seen that the shortest day In the year, December 21, in our calendar, is quite property the last day In the yenr. And it is equally fitting that the succeeding day. when the sun commences his return march, should be hailed by glad and happy hearts. The Moqui Indians, the communal pueblo people of the American Southwest, watch the shortening days with dread and celebrate with elaborate ceremony the turning point in the nun's course. The Moqui New Year's celebration, called Soyal-u-na, Is largely a presentation of a singular and elaborate mythic drama, divided into two parts, in which offerings are made to effigies of the Great Plume Headed Kerpent, the enemy of the sun, followed by a sun dance, in which the conflict between the sun and the Inferior hostile gods Is admirably portrayed by Moqui men i*»rsonlfylng the various deities. It is hoped that the sun's worst enemy— the snake demon—will be amply Clacated; so rich will he the tribute that for (inp entire year the sun shall be free from his persecutions, and the clouds which the snake wickedly swallows, shall gather and their moisture freely descend unon thp parched and blighted land until it is once more clothed in verdure. In n dimly-lighted underground room there Is erected, at its west end. a screen profusely decorated with corn husks, cut cleverly in imitation of flowers. Near the middle of the screen theTe Is an opening and behind It stands a man who manipulates the efflgy snake. By his side stands a companion who has a large conch shell. In front of the screen sit three or four solemn priests and the audience, consisting of members of all the clans and their families, and behind them la a row of men who act as chorus. When the rites begin the commences to sing, at first weird chant then gradually rises to piercing Intensity. Then the roan behind the screen takes up the effigy of the frett snake and thrusts It rapidly chores a low. nth.f jQfiSA times, accompanied by the unearthly and discordant walling of the conch shell. The priest directly In front of the screen takes a little sacred meal in his hand, holds it to his mouth, uttering a deeply significant Invocation to the serpent, and then casts the meal on the head of the efiygy. One by one all the members present make their prayers to the hostile serpent god. So ends the first half of the drama, and on the morrow, or the New Year, begins the great sun dance. On opposite sides of the chamber there stand rows of men, bearing shields with elaborate symbolic designs. At the end of the room, all alone and unsupported, stands the sunbearer, awaiting tlie onslaught of his horde of enemies. A signaJ and the song begins, and the lines of warriors on each side of the room surge against the sunbearer in attack. Eventually he scatters and vanquishes his many foes. New Year's day finishes wuh feasting and jollification. The Aztecs of Mexico and Central America had a bloody and complicated ritual for their celebration of the return of their masterful war-god, the sun. We find scattered through the tangled jungles of YVicatan many huge ruins of the wonderful pyramid ceremonial edifices upon which horrible sacrificial atrocities were practiced in heralding the New Year. The Aztec has vanished from the face of the earth. The jungle has swallowed up the sun-god's altars; The ceremonies occupied a period of several days. The initiatory rites began before daylight of the first morning, when the chief high priest and his sub-dignitaries wended their way in solemn procession to the top of their pyramidal sanctuary. Here the high priest retired alone to a small temple, whose doorway opened toward the east, and as the rising sun crimsoned the sky he kneit and sprinkled thickly upon the marble floor the sacred meaL As the first rays of the sun strike slantingly across the floor of the tiny temple, the bended priest beholds a miracle. Faintly, at first, then stronger and stronger, grows an imprint in the meal of the naked foot of their war god. Upon this miraculous manifestation the high priest announces to the assembled couriers that their god had returned to them, and that the grand festive occasion Is Inaugurated. The first feast rites were of a grewsome and horrible nature, consisting mainly of sacrificing youths to the gods. It Is said that they were feasted lor days previous to the ceremouy, that they might be In a pleasing condition upon their lust and the war god's first great day. In other ceremonies human beings were killed and fiayed, and the participants in the sacrifice enveloped themselves in the bloody skins of the victims, while they took part in a frenzied dance. • • • * • • • Across the Pacific ocean, the Ainus of Japan, are celebrating an exceedingly curious New Year's custom. For a thousand known years the Ainus have stood still in their civilization, following all their primitive customs and ceremonies generation after generation and century' after century, practically without change. New Year with them is the day of their greatest feasting and merry-making, consisting largely of an extravagant use of sakl, or rice beer. The principal ceremony Is the great bear feast, called Omsia, in which a huge bear is slain and sacrificed as a special offering to the god Kamul, who is the guardian and protector of their homes throughout the year. It is necessary to conciliate this god by the special donation of bear's meat that their lives may be free from the persecution of the unseen, Intangible spirit demons who seek to do them harm. It is said that the bear for this feast is raised from a cub, suckled by nn Ainu woman. As the end of the year draws nigh they fatten the feast bear for the coming celebration with carefully prepared foods. The killing of the bear is done In a curious way. Two fair-sized logs are lashed, one above another, to a standing tree, and extend horizontally resting upon the ground. The entire clan takes part in the killing, which is accomplished by putting the head of the animal between the logs and squeezing out Its life. New Year Period In Peking. The New Year period In Peking reminds one of the three Sundays that came together In a week, for it h8s three celebrations of the new year In little less time than a month. First comes that one with which all Americans, the people of England and those on the continent are familiar. It Is ushered in In much the same way as In any other part of the world, per haps, but thw» is the oriental setting to the sce&e. which Is so picturesque that having garaft upon (t yon close your eyes, thinking thus to forever keep the vision.

NEW TONIC MADE ME STRONG AND WELL LIKE THEY SAID Does All They Claim and My Case Was Desperate One. New York.—A plot to restore the monarchy in Germany and Russia and re-establish the former Austro- Hungarian empire is charged in a statement made public by Alexander Kerensky, former Russian premier, and a group of his political friends. The statement was issued by Kerensky in the Volia Rosslii, a paper published by him and his friends in Prague. It is the purpose of the conspirators, according to the statement, to annul the treaty of Versailles and all peace treaties arising out of the war. The conspiracy it is charged is headed by General Ludendorff, and, a^Drding to the charge is to be carried out some time between the spring and fall of 1921. The text of the statement containing the charges reached this city early this week. Embodied in the proposal was a copy of the ful text ot a memorandum submitted to his fellow conspirators by the German Colonel Bauer, chief aid to Ludendorff, in the plot, outlining the general plan of the conspiracy and the organization and method devised for its execution. One of the chief figures in the plot is Admiral Horthy, regent of Hungary, who, according to the charges, recently supplied 2".000,000 marks as the initial contribution to help finance the scheme. The money was handed over by Horthy to General "Mskupski, a leading figure of the conspiracy. USERS SWEAR BY IT "I had the LaGrippe and didn't know what ailed me. I tried everything.

Washington.—Joseph Tumulty, secretary to the President, received a flat offer of $50,000 in cash for his signature to a contract giving a publisher the exclusive rights to his story of the Wilson Administration. This offer was exclusive of any royalties which were to be agreed upon after the company had secured his signature. In making the bid, the president of the company said he was prompted by his "journalistic sense" that Mr. Tumulty's story would be worth many times that amount to the house fortunate enough to obtain it. MT. Tumulty has taken the matter MuJer advisement. INJUNCTION SERVED ON ROADS State Moves to Defeat 3.6 Cent Passenger Fare. Lansing,—Judge Charles B Collingwood, of the Ingham Circuit Court, issued a temporary injunction restraining the 18 steam railroads in Michigan from increasing their Intrastate passenger fare. The suits were begun by Alex J. Groesbeck, attorneygeneral, to prevent the railroads from putting into effect the 3.6 cents fare which it is understood the Interstate Commerce Commission will establish under the proceedings Instituted in the Federal courts by the railroads on the claim that the 3-cent rate now in effect is discriminatory against inter-state traffic.

He w a s very pale and had dark blotches under his eyes, but otherwise he w a s a s he h a d ever been, with t h e keen, hungry nose, t h e wiry m u s t a c h e and t h e close-cropped head, thinning away to baldness upon t h e t o p .

"This man's blood lies a t your door." said I, with my hand on poor Jim's shoulder. fully within hand's touch of each other upon t h e blood-soaked hillside near Hougoumont. C H A P T E R X V . The End of It. And now I nave very nearly come to t h e end of it all, and precious glad 1 shall be to find myself there, for I began this old memory with a light heart, thinking that It would give me some work for the long s u m m e r evenings, but a s I went on I wakened a thousand sleeping sorrows a n d halfforgotten griefs, a n d now my soul is all as r a w a s t h e hide of an Illsheared sheep.

"This Is my thirteenth and last," said he, with a smile. "They say that thirteen Is an unlucky number. Could you s p a r e me a drink from your flask?" T h e major had some brandy-and-water. D e Lissac supped it up eagerly. His eyes brightened, and a little fleck of color came back Into each of his haggard cheeks. "It w a s J im did this," said he. "I 4 heard some one calling my name, and there he was, with his gun against my tunic. T w o of my men cut him down Just a s he fired. Well, well, Bdie was worth It all. You will be In Paris In less than a month. Jack, and you will see her. You will find h e r a t number eleven of t h e R u e Miromesnll, which Is near t h e Madelalne.

But I suppose that. In truth, It w a s really t h e man who was over them that we hated, and now that he w a s gone, and his great shadow was cleared from t h e land, all was brightness once more. We Jogged along happily enough through t h e loveliest country t h a t ever I set my eyes on, until we came to the great city, where we thought that maybe there would be a battle, for t h e r e a r e so many folk In it that If only one In twenty comes out It would m a k e a fine army. B u t by that time they h a d seen that it w a s a pity to spoil t h e whole country Just for t h e sake of one man, a n d so they h a d told him that he must shift for himself in the future. T h e next we heard w a s t h a t he had surrendered to the British, and that the gates of P a r i s were open to u s , which w a s very good news to me. for I could get along very well Just now on t h e one battle that I had had. But there were plenty of folk In Paris now who loved Boney, and that was natural when you think of The glory that he had hrought them, a n d how he h a d never asked his army to go where he would not go himself. They had stern enough faces, for us. I can tell you, when we marched In, and we of Adams' brigade were t h e very first who set foot In t h e city. We passed over a bridge which they call Neullly, which Is easier t o write than to say, and then through a fine park, t h e Bols de Boulogne, a n d so into the Champs d'Elysees. There we bivouacked, and pretty soon the streets were so full of P r u s s i a n s a n d English t h a t it became more like a camp than a city. The very first time t h a t I could get a w a y I went with Rob Stewart, of my company—for we were only allowed t o go about in couples—to t h e B n e MIromesnIL Rob waited In t h e hall, and I w a s shown upstairs, a n d a* I put my foot over t h e mat there w a s Cousin Edie, Just t h e same a s ever, staring a t me with .hose wild eyes of hers. F o r a moment she did not recognize me, b e t when she did she Just took three steps forward a n d sprang at me with her t w o arms round my neck. "Oh. my dear old Jack!" she crtoift. "how fine you look in a red c o a t T " "Yes, I am a soldier oow, Kdle," saiu L very stlttly, for a s I looked at her pretty face I seemed t o »ee behind It that other face which hud looked up to t h e m( ruing sky on t h e Belgian battle field. "Fancy t h a t ! " she cried. "What a r e you then. Jock? A general? a capt a i n ? " "No, I am a private." " W h a t ! Not one of t h e common people who carry g u n s ? " "Yes, I carry a gun." "Oh, that is not nearly so interesting," said she, and she went back to the sofa from which she had risen. It was a wonderful room, all silk and velvet and shiny things, and I felt inclined to go back to give my boots a n o t h e r rub. As Edle s a t down again 1 s a w that she w a s all In black, and so I knew that s h e h a d heard of De Llssac's death. "I am glad to see t h a t you know all," said I, "for I am a clumsy hand at breaking things. He said that you were to keep whatever w a s in t h e boxes, and that Antoine had the keys." "Thank you. Jock, thnnk you." said she. "It w a s like your kindness to bring t h e message. I heard of It nearly a week ago. I was mad for t h e time— quite mad. I shall wear mourning all my days, although you can see what a fright It makes me look. Ah, I shall never get over i t I shall t a k e t h e veil and die In a convent." "If you please, madame," said a maid, looking In, " t h e Count de Beton wishes to see you." "My dear Jock," said Edle, Jumping up, "this Is very important. I am so sorry to cut our chat short, but I am sure that you will come to see me again, will you not, when I am less desolated. And would you mind going out by the side door Instead of the main one? Thank you, you dear old Jock • you were always such a good boy. a n d did exactly what v o u were told." And that w a s t h e last I was ever to see of Cousin Edie. She stood In the sunlight with the old challenge 1Q her eyes and flash of h e r teeth, a n d so I shall always remember her, shining and unstable like a drop of quicksilver. As I joined my comrade In t h e street below I saw a fine carriage and pair at the door, and T knew that she had common people s h e h a d been associated with In her childhood. She had never asked for J i m , nor for my father and mother, who h a d been so kind to her. Well. It w a s Just h e r way, and she could no more help It than a rabbit can help wagging Its scut, and yet It made me heavy-hearted to think of It, Two months later 1 heard that she had married this same Count de Beton and she died In child-bed a year or two later. And as for us, o u r work was done, for the great shadow had been cleared away from Europe, a n d should no longer be thrown across the breadth of the lands, over peaceful farms and little villages, darkening t h e lives which should have, been so happy. I came back to Corriemulr after I had bought my discharge. When my father died, I took over t h e sheep farm, a n d married Lucy Deane of Berwick, and have brought u p seven children who are all taller than their father, and t a k e mighty good care that he shall not forget It. But In t h e quiet, peaceful days that pass now, each as like the other a s so m a n y Scotch tups, I can hardly get t h e young folks to believe that even h e r e we have had our romance, when J i m and I went a-woo- Ing, a n d the man with t h e cat's whisk e r s came u p from t h e s e a .

STATE DEPARTMENT NOTIFIED Action Regarded As Rebuke to Embassy For Apparent Discourtesy to United States. Washington.—The state department intervened in what threatened to be a controversy between the British embassy and the senate committee investigation of cable communications over the question as whether there is a British censorship on cable messages to the United States originating in the British isles. The department's action was regarded as a rebuke to the embassy for sending direct to Senator Kellogg, chairman of the committee, a letter denying testimony of Newcomb Carlton, president of the Western Union Telegraph company that cable messages coming to the United States from Great Britain were subject to delay and examination by British naval intelligence authorities. Senator Keltygg said t h a t in referring the matter to the state dep a r t m e n t he had acted on the advice of Fred Nielsen, solicitor of the department. With his letter to acting Secretary Davis the senator transmitted a copy of the letter r&ceived from the British embassy and also copies of the transcript of the testimony of Mr. Carlton and of John Goldhammer, secretary of the Commercial Cable company, charging British censors required submission of all American cable messages.

Geneva - Twenty-two nations signed the protocol giving executive approval to the league plan for an international court of Justice. Four 'countries—Portugal, Switzerland, Denmark and Salvador agreed to compul3ory arbitration. When the parliaments of the signatory nations ratify the protocol, the court will immediately become operative. Inasmuch as the majority of the nations signed only after consultation with the governments and parties the league officials believe that the approval of the parliaments soon will follow. The delegates who signed expressed the hope that the United States would at least give executive approval notwithstanding the fact that it is not a member of the league.

In other words, the national grange opposes a sales tax as a substitute for the excess profits tax. The views of the farm organization are set forth in a letter from T. C. Aitchiaon, its Washington representative, to Senator McCumber and Representative Fordney.

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never Suspect It Applicants for Insurance Often Rejected. $250,000 Fund for Unemployed. Victoria, B.

None of the money is to be given to the city governments but will be spent by the province. Judging from reports from druggists *ho are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming theBe conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the astonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applications are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. It is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large. | However, if you wish first to test this 1 great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingbamton, N.

While prices of farm products were the first to decline good crops were the rale and the farmer will pay his 1920taxes with no more grumbling than usual, and still stay on the job—we haven't heard of a single farmer (or a married one either) who is visiting his city friends because the farm is shut down. The present school year promises to be an unusually good one from an educational standpoint, the pupils dcing their work cheerfully and well. It is not out of place to remind our readers that the Pinckney High School is the only one in Michigan in a town the size of Pinckney to have a two year permit on the University of Michigan list of eligible schools. The official inspector who visited the schoo1 this year informed the Board of Education that the Pinckney corps of teachers was unexcelled. While here he ordered several changes to be made in the school, most of them being mechanical in nature, such as changing seats etc. in some of the rooms. For over two months Prof. Doyle (although not asked or expected to i!o rrmrp than superintend the changes) worked every night and every Saturday, completing the work BS ordered by the inspector and at no extra expense whatever to the district. That's the kiud of superintendent and teachers we have in Pinckney—they are thoroughly interested in the school and are willing to do more than their contracas call for to improve and keep the Bchool np to its present high standard. Occasionally one of the old Pinckney boys who have moved away returns for a short visit.

Chestnut blight which has destroyed most of the native chestnut trees in the East, has not yet done material damage to chestnut land plantings west of the natural distribution of the American chestnut Blight resistant varieties are now being developed by the United States Department of Agriculture and by associations of nut growers.

The world throughout the yaw 1820 was passing through the troublesome period of readjustment and reaction that began with the cloae of the World war. Of all the great powera that had been involved in the conflict the United States alone remained technically in a state of war with Germairy through the failure of the senate to ratify the peace treaty. For all practical purposes, however, the United States was at peace and conditions in this country were more nearly normal^ than in most of the nations of Europe which had accepted the settlements agreed upon by the peace conference tt Paris. Although the great war had ended, the world was not at peace in 1920. Territorial disputes and jealousies growing out of the war resulted in a large number of minor conflicts. An agreement on the Adriatic question was reached November 10 at a conference between tha Jq«H8*** and the Italians and a treaty embodying the agreement was signed at Bapalto two days later. The Assembly of the Leaf&e of Nations opened tt» Stat Marian - t t 6 » neva November 16, Paul Hymana'ef BeSjgJum being electedl*sssi<Sen|. (jjeveraK edemata to tenure afttoo on a^aieodmenta pb .'.ftntj cevtnantTof the League of Nations were voted down by the league assembly. Because of this action the, Argentina- delegates to the assembly withdrew ? on gtecember 8. On December 1 Austria was admit* ted to the league, the first of the allien of Germany to be granted member* ship. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS The World war waa formally ended January 10 when Germany and fourteen of the, powera allied against her In the war exchanged ratifications of the Treaty of Versailles at Paark, The United States, however, was not among the nations participating In tlift oaremony, aa the treaty had not been ratified by the senate. -i^_^^-„;JPh«r; League of Nation Became into the exectflive council heia its nrsi m FOREIGN AFFAIRS With continual strife, amounting virtually to elvij war, in Ireland, with spasmodic revolutionary outbreaks in Germany, with counter-revolutionary movements developing at Intervals in Russia, with civil war in China and with political upheavals in France, Italy, Greece and other countries, the 'unrest and changing conditions growing out of the World war were reflected in the disturbed Internal conditions of many countries of tht» old world in 1920. One of the unexpected polItlc&J developments of the early days of the year was the failure of Premier Clemenceau to obtain election as president of France upon the expiration of the terra of President Poincare. Paul Deschanei was elected on January 1? and the following day Clemenceau'ft cabinet resigned. Alexandre Millerand formed a new cabinet at the request of President Poincare. The All-Russian government in 81* beria. headed- by Admiral Alexander B. Kolchak, was finally destroyed with the killing of Admiral Kolchak by Social Revolutionists at Irkutsk on February 7. In Great Britain the government :-toojfc^-JJA&fl£st definite step toward a M. feita officers, a •tball game killing and of persona. A political upheaval came in Greece with the defeat In the general election on November 14 of the party heeded by Premier Venlzeloa. Pwmler Venlseloe resigned on November 17 nftd. George Rhallia, former premier and leader among the followers of ex-King Constantino, formed a new cabinet On December 4 the Greek people, In a plebiscite voted for the return of King Gonstaajpue. ^r3n December 19 Constantino returned to/ Athens} in triumn*. * The .Irish situation neared a crisis during the dosing weeks of the year. Wholesale arrests were made*y the British authorities during the last v,eeks of November, among those taken «being Arthur: Grifftth, acting president of the "Irian repobllc" aid many other Irish leader*. On No* •ember 28 Irish plotters set fire to several large warehouses ea\ tfye Liverpool water front and killed two men. Martial law was proclaimed in south Ireland on December 10» and two days later a large part of the business district of Cork was burned in reprisal, it was claimed, for Sinn Fein raids. DOMESTIC Senator Warren G, Harding of Ohio was nominated for President by the Republicans at Chicago June 12. The Democratic national convention at San Francisco nominated Governor James M. Cox of Ohio on July 5 on the forty-fourth ballot. In the election on November 2, the Republican national ticket was elected by an overwhelming majority, receiving 414 electoral votes while tha Democratic candidates received 117. The Republicans also won an overwhelming majority in congress. By winning their long fight for equal suffrage, the women at the country gained the right to vote for all offices in the November election. The United 8fates Supreme court on January 5 upheld the constitutioni- r;-^.*fe^rfcs Wve President the authority requested.

President W11-, son in his message, which waa read the following day, recommended that the Philippines be given their independence. The year 1£20 being a presidential election year, politics held the attention of the people of the United States,, during the greater part of the venr. Abandonment of the ateel workers* LABOR AN0 INDUSTRIAL Industrial unroot which manifested itself during the period ef reaction Immediately following the war, became even more marked during the year 1920. Radical tg&tvltles were involved in some of the labor disputes in this country, but this was true to a much larger extent In the labor troubles that beset most of the countries of Europe during the greater part of the year. The first month of the year was marked, in the United States, by the J FAhmnry 25 by presenting to thai Ifggf^ strike which had been begun on September 22. Peace was declared between the bituminous coal operators and miners March SI, when they signed a twoyear agreement based on an award made by the coal commission named by President Wilson. An •'outlaw" strike of railroad switchmen began in Chicago April 15, and spread rapidly together parts of the country. FederaMBcers arrested 90 leaders of the strike in Chicago, April 15, en charges of interfering with the malls and violation of the Lever act.

The Russian government made a step toward securing peace with Its warrinx neighbors by concluding treaties with Ukraine and Eathonla. The Turkish peace terms were completed on Marcb 3, and a week later the Allies decided to use force V> Impose the terms upon Turkey, sending troops to ooeupy Constantinople. The allied forces occupied the Turkish capital without opposition, The Poles and Ukrainians negotiated a treaty on April 27, recognizing Ukrainian Independence from Russia. A combined army of Poles and Ukrainians then launched an offensive against tbe Russian "Red" forces, capturing Kiev on May 8 and the great port of Odessa on May 11. The supreme council continued Its efforts to complete the peace settlements. The treaty with Hungary was signed Jirhe 4 at Versailles, Ambassador Wallace signing for the United States.

During the next two weeks they continued to advance and on August 17 were within twelve miles of Warsaw. The Polish capital seemed doomed, but on the 17th the Poles launched a great counter-offenslvetahd drove the Bolshevik! back In disorder. Heartened by the crushing blow given the Russian forces, the Poles rejected the Bolshevik peace terms. In the meantime, on August 11, the French foreign office surprised the other powers by giving recognition to General Wrangel's de facto government In South Russia. Tbe Turkish peace treaty was signed on August 10 by all nations concerned except Serbia and the Hedjaz. Soviet Russia. continued its effort to make peace with Its neighbors by signing a treaty with Letvla and agreeing to armistice- terms with Finland. • On October 12 the Poles signed an armistice and preliminary peace treaty with Russia to become effective October 18.

A new counter-revolution, directed by militarists, broke out in Berlin March 13. The revolutionists gained control of Berlin and Dr. Wolfgang Kapp proclaimed himself chancellor. The revolution was short-lived, however, ending in failure on the 16th when Dr. Kapp resigned. The Irish situation continued to attract the attention of the world. On March 19 the mayor of Cork was killed by assassins. In Mexico the presidential campaign developed a revolution which resulted eventually in the overthrow of the Carranza government. On April 10 the state of Sonora withdrew from the republic and fighting ^between the Sonora troops and federal forces began. By April 21 nine Mexican states had joined the secession movement. The revolutionary movement gained rapidly and on May 7 President Carranza fled from Mexico City toward the eastern coast On May 22 Carranza, the fugitive president Was shot and killed by troops In his escort while asllep. On August 13 Mayor Terence Mac- Swiney of Cork was arrested by British troops for sedition In holding a Sinn Fein court at the City Hall. He was convicted by a court martial on the 17th and taken to an English prison, where he immediately *ntered upon a hunger strike.

In the constitutional election held In Mexico September 5 General AI-* vara Obregon was elected president President Deschanei of France resigned September 21 because of 111 health and on the 23rd Premier Alexandre Millerand was elected to succeed him. Georges Leygues, minister of marine under Clemenceau, became pre,- mler. After a hunger strike of 74 days, which had drawn the attention of the world, Terence MacSwiney, lord mayor of Cork, died in Brixton prison, London, October 25.

Tbe Irish home rule bill passed the souse of commons on Its third reading November 1L At Bnblin t the eighteenth amendment to the Constitution, went into effect. The railroads of the country were returned to private operation on March 1, under the terms of the Cummlns- Esch railroad reorganization act Several suits had been instituted during the early months of the year attacking the validity of the eighteenth (prohibition) amendment.

Big Increases in rates were* granted the railroads of the country by the Interstate commerce commission July 31 to enable the roads to meet Increase ©: wages. The trial of the Communist Labor party leaders in Chicago,An progress for several months, ended August 2 with the conviction of 20, who were given Jail sentences. Sharp drops in the prices of cotton, wheat and other farm products brought appeals for assistance from the farmers of the country during the latter part of the year. Night riders appeared In southern states In an effort to force the growers to hold their cotton for a higher price and a movement was started to secure the holding of wheat from the market --. NATIONAL LEGISLATION The continued fight over the ratification of the treaty of Versailles^ with the League of Nations covenant resulting in rejection of the treaty for* the second time, occupied the attention'of the United States senate during the early months of 1920 and monopolized the attention of the public, so far as congressional action was concerned. Tbe Curamins-Esch bill, under which the railroads of the country operated after their return to private control, and the army reorganization bill were the principal pieces of legislation enacted before the first regular session of the 8lxty-slxth congress ended June 5. The Water Power Development bill, which had long been pending In congress, was passed by the senate January 15. A similar bill had been adopted by the house In July, 1919. The senate then turned Its attention to the peace treaty^ The original Lodge reservations wire again adopted, with some amendments, The treaty, with the reservations, came to a vote on March 19, and for the second time felled to secure the requisite twothirds majority, the vote being 40 to 35. The following day th% rejected treaty was sent back to the President With no prospect of the early adoption of the treaty, resolutions declaring the war at an end were Introduced In both the bouse and tbe senate. Both houses adopted tha Knox senate res* 1 olution. President Wlhsjo vetoed this resolution, howevet on May 27. awards made by the coal commission. The Railway Labor board announced Its decision' on wage increases on July 20, awarding Increases of from 20 to 27 per cent to nearly 2,000,000 employees, the total Increase amounting to about $600,000,000 a year, dbout half the raise that employees had asked. The award was accepted by the railroad unions. Serious riots occurred at Denver August 6 in connection with a street car strike, many being killed and injured. Federat troops were ordered to Denver to stop the disorders. The Railway Labor board made another award August 10, granting an Increase amounting to $30,000,000 a year to 75,000 railway express workers. On August 30 President Wilson approved the majority report of the anthracite wage commission, awarding wage increases of from 17 to 20 per cent On September 1 anthracite operators and miners signed a two-year contract based-on the award, but thousands of men remained on what they termed "vacation" In protest against tbe award. Industrial conditions grew more serious In Italy during tbe late summer and fall. An obstructionist campaign was started by 500,000 workmen on August 22. On August 81, in Lornbardy, 300 metal-working plants were seized by employees and workmen's .councils took charge of the plants. On "September 14 the workmen's council voted for co-operative management and profit-sharing by the workmen. At the same time the workmen took over 200 chemical works and several textile mills. Premier Giolitti intervened, and on September 19 the employers agreed to his terms of settlement granting Increases of pay retroactive to July 15. The workmen accepted tha settlement and ordered the factories returned to the owners. An industrial crisis was precipitated in England on October 16 by a strike of 1,000,000 coal nflners, On the 28th an agreement was reached for an increase In wages in consideration of a pledge on the part of the miners to help increase production, The strike was called off November & A severe business depression was felt throughout the United States during the closing weeks of the year. The trend toward lower wages waa marked by the announcement of the textile mills of New England In December of a reduction inr wages amounting to 22½ per cent DISASTERS The world was comparatively free from disasters causing great loss of vllfe during 1980.

The Beck of Fortune. The last congratulations had been offered; the last good wishes, somewhat mixed with tears, had been expressed. The bride, glowing In the happy consciousness of her own beau* ty, and deified by the great tenderness that enveloped her new estate l.ke a golden mist, said her farewells with steady voice and nndrooplng eyes. It had been a busy winter for John Harris, and this, although the consummation of his great desire, was but the threshold to new activities and new outlets for his intense energies. Since the face and form of Mary Allan had first enraptured him In his little backwoods school district, a vast ambition had possessed his soul, and today, which had seemed to be Its end, he now knew to be but its beginning. The ready consent of bis betrothed to shsre his life in the unknown wilderness between the Bed river and the Kocky mountains had been a tide which, taken at Its flood, might well lead him on to fortune.

And so the Journey wore on. As day succeeded «lsy to the monotonous rumble of the cur wheels the Immigrant* became better acquainted and friendships took root that *u jfter year* were to brave every storm of adversity and bloom forth in the splendid community of spirit and sacrifice Which particularly dlsiingaished the pioneers. In the cold gray of a March OHTBlng, when the sun had not yet dispelled the mists of night, and the fringing woods back from the Ked river gloomed white and spectral through the frost, they re-entered the empire, and In a few minutes were detraining at Emerson, the boundary town and gateway to the prairies which for 1.0U) miles stretched Into the mysteries of the unknown. Emerson was the gate way of rhe great invasion. The "furthest wesr" of rail communication, on the threshold of the prulrle country.

While they remained within sight a smile played npon the features of his strong, sunburned face, but as the last little calico dress was swallowed by the wood tae smile died down, and for a moment he stood, a grave and thoughtful statue framed within the white pine casings of the sash.

The next moment he was at the water's edge, and a limpid lake stretched away to where the forests of the farther shore mingled hazily with sky and water. He glanced about as though expecting someone; he whistled a line of a popufar song, but the only reply was fronv a saucy eavesdropper which, perched on. a near-by limb, trilled back Its own liquid notes in answer.

So John Harris ond his bride- took the passenger train from h*»r city home, while their goods and chattels, save for their personal baggage, rambled on in a box-car or crowded stolidly into congested side-tracks as the exigencies of traffic required. At a Junction point they vere transferred from the regular passenger service to an Immigrant train. One or two of the passengers had already made the trip to Manitoba, and were now on the Journey a second time, accompanied by their wives snd families. These men were soon noted as individuals of some moment; they became the center of little knots of conversation, and their fellow-immigrants hung in reverent attention upon every word from their lips. "Tell us about the crops," said one of the men passengers. "What ll^e wheat can ye grow?" "Like corn," said the narrator, witb great deliberation. "Heads like ears o' corn.

All pantomime, clowns paint their cheeks and mostly they do so according to certain designs handed down from geneftion to generation. But as to the why and the wherefore opinions differ.

Tho thj-rry has also been held that the modern clown in pnntomlrae Is a direct descendant of Morons, the god of mockery of the early mystery plays and masques, who was always represented with a huge gaping mouth.

The Hun never changes. We read In well-Informed magazines everywhere that Germany, nnlike any other nation participating In the great war, refuses to forget the war. While In America, In Britain, in Prance and Italy, the chief desire is to turn full attention to the things of peace and to blot out war memories, in Hunland tbe converse Is true, declares the American Legion Weekly. The astounding sale of books dealing with, military phases of the war and the military lessons taught by the war continues throughout Germany. Germans, old and young, are reading what Von Hindenburg and Von Kluck and • Von Sanders think of even the ml*') nutest details of strategy and tactics. * Clubs have been formed for the study i vt military questions, and newspapers ; are full of articles explaining Just why i Germany failed, .and Just how she I could have done better.

There were two or three reasons far .this, the principal one being that In this section there were the wonderful • Clydesdales, the Belgians and the PercAerons that had carried off championships and first prizes. The province •f Saskatchewan had a splendid display of Clydesdales and showed in s a number of classes, and In every claw they got In the money.

She had big brown eyes that were both temperamental and Intelligent. She had thoroughbred nostrils which dilated when she felt; and lips that were scarlet. Many men had expressed admiration for her. She had never loved. He loved her. He w a s accustomed to taking what he wanted. He expressed no admiration. He crushed her to him and kissed the big brown eyes a n d t h e scarlet lips. She flew into a flaming rage and sent him away, hut— She sent for him. She demanded an apology. He tenderly kissed the bi£ drown eyes and scarlet lips. She did not send him away.—From "Bits of Life."

Analysis of the gunnery exercises ol the American navy during the past year shows that the greatest progress toward efficiency was made by vessels of the battleship class, due to the large number of men aboard such ships and the comparative stability of the personnel. T h e Navy departmenl considers that battleship gunnery is at present about equal to that of foreign battleships. It is be lieved that next year vessels ol other classes will be brought up as regards gunnery to the level of our battleships.—Scientific American. Lamps Shine Downwardly.

For the Protector had a most abnormal streak In his mental make-up. Fancy a man that could sign the death warrant of a king and then turn and spatter the Ink from his pen Into the face of a friend. In his youth taverns were the chief resort of Cromwell. His raau and boisterous behavior early estranged him from his equals and he came to associate with a class beneath him. For he could brook no Interference or contradiction. The matter of the score at the Inns where he caroused concerned him very little; the bills frequently went unpaid and he became extremely unpopular with the alewives of Huntingdon who, when they saw him coming, would lock the doors to keep out the noisy bully. So Oliver turned out to be a wild and dissipated youth. The same Incorrigible spirit ran throughout his life. It led him to encourage his soldiers to play practical jokes upon each other, such as putting hot coals In the other fellow's boots. At the marriage of his daughter In 1057 to Rich, the Protector threw sack posset among the ladies to soil their rich clothes, which they took as a favor from him, strange as It And he put sticky candy OBJECT TO MENIAL DUTKS Reason That U Assigned for th« Pn+ •nt Scarcity of Trained Nun— In Hospital*. The full utility of many hospitals is now Impaired by a lack of nurses writes "Girard" In the Philadelphia Press. Iluward Butler, Jr., is trust.-o of an luipnruiiil hospital hen- :ui'1 lie tells me i>>\v need 30 \>»r runt move nurses than thtrv can get. "\Yliy are nurses so scarce?" I asked. "I presume," answered Mr. Butcher, whose business, as you know, is that of a banker and broker, "It is- because girls think they can earn more money in an easier way in some other occupation." I have talked with doctors of wide hospital experience about It and they say that the old practice of making girls in training for nurses do drudgery for a year or so has prevented many young women from entering the profession. "What good," said one great surgeon, "did it do to a nurse's skill to make her scrub floors or wash windows? As well make medical students polish shoes, keep up the furnace fires and sweep out the lecture rooms." Another physician of long experience and who is connected with a big hospital, added: "The hospitals will be obliged to cut out the manual labor for training nurses and will probably reduce the years of training, or the country will go back to the conditions when It had few or no trained nurses." may ^sf.em. •iM^\^ ^ g ^ i ^ ^ - ^ i . ^ w H:&- •::'--. r ; ^ _ • ; ; • - - ^ - ^ - - - ;es.?«iwi ti ^ ¾ % ^ ¾ R Plays all records—50 or more— without changing and will not injure the finest records t P.

Strongly built, the body rests upon that marvelous Ford chassis. It brings to its owner every modern-day convenience; easy riding—while sliding plate glass windows make it breezy and cool in hot weather; dust proof and water-proof when the windows are closed—it is cosy and comfortable in ihclement and wintry weather. Then there is the durability of car, coupled with the low economy ot first cost and the saving of money in operating expense. Behind it and every other Ford car is that unsurpassed "Ford After Service" which is given by the army of Ford dealers scattered all over the country together with some 15,000 authorized garages, until the Ford owner is always within dependable, reliable service, where the genuine Ford parts, and the genuine Ford methods are applied in the care of this car. T h e Ford Coupe administers to a great variety of owners, from the physician to the •traveling man, from the engineer to the architect, and and then for a pleasure car for two it is unbeatable.

He mast first make a trip of exploration himself, and as this might require several weeks his present consideration was to place her in proper surroundings before he left.

T h e response ranged from curt announcements that the Inmates "nln't takln' boarders" to sympathetic a s s u r a n c e s t h a t if It were possible to find room for another It would be done, but the kouse was already crowded to suffocation. In two hours Harris, notwithstanding his stout frame and his young enthusiasm, dragged himself somewhat disconsolately back to the Immigration building with the information that his search had been fruitless. At the door he met Tom Morrison and another, whom he recognized as tfce teller of Indian slnries_which_ii»i<J. &•?¥&••*»£•••*&*' i j * * >'* —^j * -;s.'-^w**-**W**^ e^m^M3^^^P7:k% the arm. "Little, I'll be thinkin', by the smile ye're forcin' up. But what am I ihfnkiu' of? Mr. McCrae is from V y out in the Wakopn county, and a, old timer on the prairie." "Aleck McCrae." said the bis man "We leave our 'misters' east of the Great Lakes. An' Ah'm not from Wakopa. unless you give that name to all the country from Bemblna crossing to Turtle mountain. Ah'm doing business all through there, an' no more partial to one place than another." "What is your line of business, Mr McCrae?" asked Harris. "Aleck, I said, an' Aleck it I s " "All right." said the other, laughing. "What is your business, Aleck?" "My business is assisting settlers to get located on suitable land, an ekelng out my own living by the process. Tom here tells me you're hunting a house for the wife. Ah know Emerson too well to suppose you have found one." "1 haven't, for a fact," said Harris, reminded of the urgency of his mission. "It's out of the question," said Mc- Crae. "Besides, it's not so necessary as you think. What with the but! time our train made, an' the good time the stock train made, an' the fact that they started ahead of us they're in the y a r d s now. T h a t ' s a piece of luck, to start with." "But I can't put my wife in a stock c a r ! " protested Harris. •There's worse places," McCrae answ^ red, calmly worrying a considerable section from a plug of black chewi n g tobacco. "Worse places, Ah should say. Ah've seen times when a good warm stock car would have passed for heaven. But that ain't what Ah have in mind. We'll all turn In an' get the stork unloaded, hitch up the horses, pack a load, an' got away. Ah've been making a canvass, an' Ah find we have six or seven families who can be ready to pull out this afternoon. My team will go along, with a good tent an' some cooking outfit. Everyone has bedding, so we're all right for that. Now, if we all hustle we can be started by 4 o'clock, an' out ten or 12 Miles before we pitch camp. How does it suit you?" *'What do you say. Mr. Morrison?" "I think Aleck's plan is best. I've my wife and the two girls, and there's no roof for their heads here. It suits me. *'If it's nil settled," continued Mr- Orae, who had the leader's knack of suppressing Indecision at the psychological moment, "we'll all turn in with the unloading of the stock." H a r r i s ran to tell his wife that they were to join a party for "the front" that very afternoon. She received the news joyously. In a few minutes all hands, both men and women, were busy at ihe cars. Many hands made the work I ght, ami,by mid-afternoon mix sleighs A u i K o r o f -•*» THe Cow ftincher.ltc.

All the women and children were to go with the p a r t y ; Morrison and one or two hired men would remain in Emerson, complete the unloading, and take charge of the etlecta until the teams should return from their long Journey. McCrae, on account of his knowledge of tlie town and of ihe needs of the journey, wan chosen to secure the supplies- Each settler's sleigh carried that which seemed most indispensable. First came the settler's family, which, largt> or small, was crowded into the deep box. McCrae made them pack hay in the bottom of the sleigh boxes, and over this were laid robes and blankets, on which the Immigrants sat, as thickly as they could be placed. More robes and blankets were laid on top. and sacks stuffed very full of hay served the double purpose of cushioning their backs and conveying fodder for the animals. Morrison came up to Harris' sleigh, and gave ft an approving inspection. "You will all be tine.'' tie said, "and a great deal better than wearyln' about here. Besides, you're just as well to be away," he added. In a somewhat lower voice. "McCrae tells me If this sun keeps up the roads will be gone before we know it. and that means a delay of two or three weeks." At this moment McCrae himself Joined the group. "There's only two in your party, Harris." he said, "an' while Ah don't want to interrupt your honeymoon, there's another passenger to be taken care of. Dr. Blaln is going with ns, and Ah'm going to pui him In your charge. He's a bit peculiar, hut Ah don't think he'll give ed, of the nation that must arise, of the manhood and womanhood of tomorrow— she would be brave. A bright s t a r shone dowu from the w e s t ; one by one they appeared In the heavens, • • • It grew colder. The snow no longer caked on the horses' feet ; th^ sleigh runners creaked aiMi whined uncannily. The team c a m e fo a sudden stop. The sleigh in front was obstructing the road, and the party closed up In solid formation. "Camp No. 1," called Aleck McCrae. from the head sleigh. "Run these sleighs up in two rows." and he Indicated where he wanted them placed. "It's hard on the horses an" cattle, after the warm cars, but they'll stand It tonight If they're well blatfketed. under the white wlngn of rhe protecting tent. Outside the ground-drift sifted gently about the sleighs, the cows sighed in contentment, and the wolves yapped 10 each other in the distance. C H A P T E R I I . Prairie Land. The afternoon that h a s Just been described was typical of the days that were to follow as the Immigrant party labored its slow pilgrimage into the f a r t h e r west. True, they entered on the very next day a district having some pretense of settlement where it w a s sometimes possible to secure shelt r for the women and children under hospitable Mennonlte roofs. They soon emerged from the Red River valley, T o m o r r o w night we'll be among the |eft f n e vast, level, treeless plain be- Mennonltes, with a chance of getting h | n ( j r h .em, a n d plunged Into the rollstable room." j n g a n d jjghtly wooded Pembina re* Dnder Aleck's direction the sleighs were run up In two rows, about JO feet a p a r t , fining the north. Two sleighs were then run across the •polling at rhe north end. so that altogether they formed* a three-sided court. Men with shovels quickly 'denred the snow from the northerly portions of the court, and there the tent was pitched. The ground was,covered with blankets, robes and bedding. I'ois and pans were produced ; women eager to be of service swarmed about the stove, and children, free at last of their muffling wraps, romped in high laughrered glee among the robes or darned back and forward with the swinging shadows. Savory smelts soon were coming from hot frying pans, as sllceo ham with bread and gravy, was served up n tin plates and passed about the vn.il- JU11 f n / w t K i n _jii-- 'htng Ah know—he' «,«-n.h u^ l o n n ins rum n o w ; you can shift your stuff a little an' make room." The whole party were ready for the roar) and waiting before McCrae appeared again. When he came a companion staggered somewhat uncertainly by his side. "I'm aw'right. McCrae." he was say Ing. "I'm aw' right. Shay, whash thish? Shildren 'v Ishrul?" "Come now. Doctor, straighten up. Ah want to Introduce you." Half leading and half pulling, Mc- Crae brought the doctor to Harris' sleigh. "This Is Mr Harris, who you will travel with —Jack iiarris. An' .Mrs. Harris." The doctor had glanced only casually at Harris, but at the mention o ' the woman's name he straightened up and stood alone. "Clad to ineei you, madam." he said. "And it's only proper that the pleasure should be all mine." There was a little bitterness in his voice that did not escape her car. "But indeed I am glad to meet you," she answered. "Mr. McCrae has been telling us something of your work among the settlers. We are very fortunate to have you with us." He shot a keen look into her face. She returned his gaze frankly, and he found sarcasm neither in her eyes nor her voice. "Help me in. McCrae." he said. "T'm n bit unsteady * * * T h e r e now, my bag. Don't move. Mrs. Harris * * * I think we are quite ready now. are we not?" "Most remarkable man." whispered McCrae to Harris. "Wonderful how he can pull himself together." McCrae hurried to his own sleigh, called a cheery "All ready!" and the party at once proceeded to get under way. Harris' thoughts were on his team, on the two cows trudging behind, and on the multiplicity of a r r a n g e m e n t s which his new life would present for decision and settlement. But his wife gazed silently out over the ccean of snow. The rays of the sun fell gratefully on her cheeks, pale and somewhat wan wdth her long journey. But the sun went do\i^i, and the western sky. cloudless and measureless, faded from gold to copper, and from copper to silver, and from silver to lead. If was her first sight of the prairie, and a strange m i x t u r e of emotions, of awe. and loneliness, and a certain indifference to personal consequences. welled up within her. Once or twice she thought of home—a home so far a w a y that It might have been in another planet. But she would not let her mind dwell on it for long She was going to be brave. For the sake of the brave man who sat at her side, guiding his team In the deepening darknes's; for the sake of the new home that they two should build somewhere over the horizon ; for the sake nf the Clvilfx.arion that was to be pluntgion. After numerous consultations with McCrae. Harris had a r r a n g e d that his immediate destination should be In a district where the scrub country melted Into open prairie on the western side of the Pembina.

In referring to his rettiarlcahle restoration to health by Tanlac, he s a i d : "About live years ajro 1 suffered R peneral breakdown. My prineijial trouble was netwous indigestion. My appetite was very poor nnd my food seldom agreed with me. and I had to live on a very restricted diet. I suffered a preat deal from headaches and dizzy spells; I had severe pains across the small of my back and was badly constipated most of the time. In fact, I was so weak and rundown I was not able to attend to my duties. "This condition made me very nervous nnd I could not sleep at nicht. Frequently I would lie awake most all niuht' and was In that condition more or less for five years, My physician said lie could not do anything for me and suggested a change of of comfort. I was also told I had heart trouble. "I had read about Tanlac and, as it had been very highly recommended to me, I decided to try it. I got a bottle and had taken only a few doses until I could notice a marked improvement In my condition. I noticed especially that I was not troubled any more with sour stomach after eating, which was a great relief. "I kept on taking Tanlac until I fully regained my health. My appetite is splendid ; I enjoy my meals and I do not find it necessary now to take any laxative mecicines of any kind. I can sleep much better and am not nearly so nervous. "I take great pleasure in recommending Tanlac to anyone who needa a good system builder, or who suffers with stomach trouble. I have recommended Tanlac to a great many of my friends and am pleased to reach others by giving this statement for publication." Tanlac la sold by leading druggists everywhere.

Is Believed to Be That Mentioned In 'Called," So He Duly " S a r s e d " His Coffee. The oil magnate, Mike Murphy, wlio passed away not long num. was fortunate In the fact that his son- inherited their father's consummate ability, ^ays the riiihi'lolphia Ledger. < Xie of them, John, tolls 1 his story of a recent visit to a certain section of the country, where he was careful to do as the people did, and to conform with social usages as he found them. At the table tin- venerable host poured coffee into a saucer. lint the host's son drank it from a cup. That made the host angry. "Why don't you sarse your coffee?" he bellowed at the son. "It's all right this way. father," answered the young man. mildly. "Son, if your eddiratlon is goin' to make you reflect on your father I want to know it. I tells you, sarse your coffee!" Whereupon the dutiful son emptied the cup in the saucer, and, says Mr. Murphy, "I sarsed mine, too!" at $1 70 1-4; a t J1.70 l - 2 c ; M i n n e a p o l i s A Flying Furnace. The average meteor when first seen is about SO miles above the surface of the earth, and disappears from view nt 30 miles. Thus, it travels "() miles before the atmospheric friction h u m s H up. This friction, it is reckoned, raises It to a t e m p e r a t u r e of something like M.nOO.000 do-reev the Bible in Connection With Great Law Giver. In the Ku'.M'iian deserl, about ten miles east of Suez, is situated a picturesque pool known as "Moses' well," This is believed to be the well mentioned in the I'.ilile, where Moses, at the bidding of the Lord, cast a branch into the bitter waters, and they were sweetened. Set. in a deep grove of date-palms and pomegranate trees, the well is a dark, calm, mysterious looking pool, faithfully relleeting the palms which fringe its edges. The scene at sunrise, when the tirst rays strike the still water, is exquisite beyond description. Attempts to identify various natural beatifies and locations with mentions or descriptions as given In the Pdblo have always been difficult, owing to the fact that the records of the rulers of Egypt at the time of the captivity of the Jews were destroyed by rulers that came Into power immediately afterward. The motive was jealousy, nnd a determination to wipe from the minds of the people any regrets for rulers gone. >*, Contrary Statements. "Smith told me he had a raw deal."

Here from t h e wagon he drew a little bundle and hurried back to t h e house. She was sitting where he left her, shivering slightly and watching the play of the light as it flickered up and down the wall. H e tore the package open and spread its contents before her. & At first she took no notice, but gradually her eyes found the outline of •oft cloth and dainty feminine devices. With a great Joy be watched the color returning as her set face relaxed In a smile of ineffable tenderness. She raised her face to his and slipped her a r m s about his neck, and he knew that for the moment he had snatched her out of the valley of the shadow. H a r r i s made no more a t t e m p t s to market his wheat t h a t winter. His wife's health now became his first consideration, but, even had there been no such problem, experience had shown that nothtog was to be gained by making the long and expensive trip to Emerson. The cost of subsistence of man and team on the way devoured all the proceeds of the w h e a t ; Indeed, there were instances on record In t h e settlement where men who attempted such trips during the winter actually came back poorer than they left, while those who could show a gain of a bag of sugar, a sack of flour, or a box of groceries were considered fortunate Indeed. " W h a t shall we e a t ? " said H a r r i s to his wife, when, a f t e r a full discussion, it was decided that no more grain could be marketed until spring. "Oh, we shall not suffer," was her calm reply. "We have over 600 bushels of wheat." "But we can't eat w h e a t 1" "I'm not so s u r e of t h a t I heard Mr. McCrae say t h a t lots of families had wintered on w h e a t Indeed, boiled wheat Is something of a delicacy. Even the best city families rarely have It, although It is more nutritious than ' flour and much easier to prepare." H a r r i s thrilled with Joy over his wife's vivacity. T h e s t r a n g e gloom that oppressed her so much of late had cost him many anxious hours. of bleak, snow-bound prairies on every side, but through It all they kept up their courage and their hopefulness. Mary spent much time with her needle, from which John, when he felt she was applying herself too closely, beguiled her to a game of checkers or an hour with one of their few but valued books. And there were frequent visits and long evenings spent about a cozy fire, when the Morrisons, or the Grants, or the Rlleses, dropped in to while away the time. The little sod house was warm and snug, and as the men played checkers while the women sewed, what cared the pioneers for the snow and the cold and the wind whistling across the plains? • • • » * • • * • At last came the crisis. At 4 in the afternoon H a r r i s kissed his wife an affectionate farewell, hitched his horses to the sleigh, and started out post-haste for Plainville. He drove by way of the Morrisons, where a few low words sent Tom to the stable at a trot to hitch his own team, while the good wife bustled about in the "room." almost overwhelmed with the Importance of her mission. "I will go for the doctor. Jack, and you go back and take the wife with you." was Morrison's kindly offer, but 3 a r r ! s would not agree. It was dark ?y this time, and he felt that he could 'rust no one else to make the Journey to Plainville. Besides, there was more than a chance t h a t Dr. Blain might be Incapable, and in that case it meant a drive of 30 miles farther. "It's good of you. Morrison," he said, "but you are more used to your wife's bidding than I am, and you can be of good service there, if you will." And without waiting to argue he s p r a n g into his sleigh again and was whipping his team into the darkness. "Night, H a r r i s , " said the landlord, who had a speaking acquaintance with every settler within 20 miles. "Ye're drtvln' late. Ye'U have a bite of supper an' stable the t e a m ? " "No. Hank, not t o n i g h t thanking you the same. But I'm after Dr. Blain, and I'm in a hurry. Is he here, and— is he fit?" T h e r e was an anxiety in the last words t h a t did not escape the host. "Nothin* ser'ons, I hope? F r o s t or somethin'?" Then, without waiting for reply, he continued: "Yes, doctor's here. Upstairs, bed to the right a s ye go up. J u s t got In a little back. As for fit—dig 'lm out a n ' Judge for yourself." H a r r i s lost no time scaling the ladder which led to the upper half-story of the building. It was a garret— nothing better—where the cold s t a r s looked through knot holes In the poplar shingles, and the ends of the shingle nails were tipped with f r o s t Another wall lamp burned uncertainly here, flickering in the wind that whistled through the cracks in the gables, and by its light H a r r i s found "the bed to the right.'' The form of a-man lay diagonally across it, face downward, with arms extended above the head, and so still that Harris paused for a moment in a s t r a n g e alarm. Then he slipped his hand on the doctor's neck and found it warm. "Come, Doctor," he said, "I want you with me." But the sleeping man answered with not so much as a groan. "Come, Dr. Blain," Harris repeated, shaking him soundly. "I want you to go home with me." He might have been speaking to the dead. In sudden exasperation he seized the doctor by the shoulders, and with one ^. s^S 4^i aB&^ r^$^g^2^M^^ m^J^S^m?^^^^mi W/ \ < " W a t c h e Doing, H a r r i s ?

" he said at length, and the recognition brought a thrill of hope, " 'S no use * * • Gotta sleep it off. 'S no use. Harris. *S no use." And he crumpled up In the bed. But H a r r i s was desperate. "Now I'm not going to fool with you," he said. "You get up and come with me or I'll take you. Which is it?" But the doctor only mumbled 4"S no use," and fell heavily to sleep. Throwing open his coat to get free motion for his arms. Harris in a moment wrapped the sleeping man in a couple of blankets from the bed. threw him over his shoulder, carried him down the ricke{y-tadder, and deposited him. noxje"roo gently, In the sleigh. There wa3~a mild cheer from t h e men about the stove over these heroU measures, and one of them thoughtfully threw the doctor's satchel into the sleigh. The next moment all wert lost in the darkness. Harris drove for an hour, watching the trail keenly In the whitish mist ol the winter's night, and urging thu horses to the limit of their exertions. He had almost forgotten his passenger when he felt a stir In the bottom of the sleigh. Looking dovvu closely lie found the doctor trying to extricate a flask from one of his pockets. With a quick wrench he took it from nim, and would have thrown It into thb snow, but the thought struck him thai it might be needed, and he put it Into his own pocket. The doctor struggled to his feet. "Say, Harris, you're friend o' mine, but don't take too many liberties, seet< 'S no use tryln' without i t J u s h glv*- me that bottle now, or I'll get out an' go home." Harris was so pleased at the signs of returning coherence that he could have hugged the doctor, but he only said, "You've had enough for t o n i g h t And you won't get out. because if you try to I'll knock you senseless in the bottom of the sleigh." After that the doctor remained silent for some time. Then suddenly he i e m a n d e d : "Shay, Harris, where yon takin' me to, a n y w a y ? " "I'm taking you to my home." " W h a ' for?

"This price change has been made possible through lower costs of materials and the fact that we are now located in our new Tractor Plant with greatly increased economic manufacturing facilities in immediate connection with our foundry and machine shops and large blast furnaces where iron is poured directly from the ore, giving us maximum efficiency with the power to reduce cost of production, and down comes the price in line with our policy to market our products at the lowest possible figure without in any way affecting our high standard of quality. "We are particularly pleased in being able to bring about this big reduction in price at this time because the farmer needs all the help we can give him and this big cut in price will be the means of placing a valuable power unit within the reach of practically every one of them, not to mention industrial and commercial concerns which-likewise haver benefited through its use and arc already realizing, to a much greater extent, its value as a power and hauling unit. But particularly has the FORDSON Tractor proved a most valuable factor in the saving of farm labor, at the same time increasing the per acre crop yield as Well as making possible a utilization of previously uncultivated lands, to say nothing of removing'no end of drudgery. "There is no question that the use of machine power on the farm is the greatest advancement made in the development of agriculture,- not only in money saving and money making results, as we^l as raising the standards of living on the farm to a much higher level, but because of its proved value in making every type of land more productive, and consequent!v our desire to make the FORDSON within the reach of all. "There is no change in the present Ford Car and Truck prices, which are already at the lowest possible figure and now with rock bottom reached on the tractor price a further reduction in price of either the Car» Truck or Tractor is out of the question; in fact, the big-price cuts have been made in anticipation of continuous maximum production and increases may be necessary if a large volume of new business is not obtained." Ask for the hook "Fordson at Work", which will be supplied free of cost. Let us demonstrate the value of the Fordson on your [farm, in your factory, lumber yard, coal yard, or in any general K»nlmy or power work you have to do and let us have your order for a Fordson. W. G. REEVES i # Stockbridge Pinckney 11 < i i KBmWBBSS * is PINCKNEY DISPATCH IN COLOR SCHEME Harmonious Hues Should Be Aim, Fashion Writer Says. THE SMART TRICOLINE FROCK Choice of Pleasing Shade* Affect* Mental and Physical Health and Happine**; Avoid Discord. Much that is beautiful in art, nature, and In costume makes its appeal to us through color, assert* a fashion writer. We see a rare picture, we are attracted by a pretty gown, or we look upon a bed of poppies nodding in the wind, and exclaim, "How beautiful!" If we but stopped to analyze that remark, we should realize that the common quality that appeals to us in these different cases la color. The choice of a harmonious color scheme In clothing and in the decorating of our homes affects our mental and physical health and so our general happiness. Color has virtually the eame effect on us as music. It makes us sad or it makes us happy; It Invigorates or depresses us. It Is a language without words. And just as we are annoyed by discord in music, so are we disturbed by discord In color. All music Is based on the octave. All color music is based on the color of the rainbow, which is the best colter chart A particular color is like a particular note In music. It may be pleasing even by Itself; but It 1* much more pleasing when it is combined with discordant colors. Every note on the violin or piano, as every color of the rainbow, is pure In itself; but when combined with notes that are not related to it and to one another, ft produces a discordant effect. So, to produce harmonious results, one color must be related in some way to the other color or colore, with which It is combined. For a brown dress, for instance, following the correct color chart, one combination would De vio- HENNA CLOTH AND CARACUL With the addition of a fur one can wear this smart trlcolin* frock well into the season. let blue, which is the complement of brown; another combination would be orange-yellow, for brown Is Its tertiary shade. Brown also may be combined with cream or lavender, for the tertiary tints. There are three primary colors, red, v^kfcu^^wjcL.i^jaf8, the mire hue" of t i n t C ^ J I U I a . I I I V . I V i « i v ~ - - you know: red-orange (a mixture ">t yellow and red) blue-violet (a mixture of red and blue), yellow-green (a mixture of yellow and blue). The spectral colors are divided into two classes : warm and cold. Red, orange and yellow are warm; green, blue and violet are cold. As a rule warm color combinations are to be preferred^ but when complementary colors are used, warm and cold are nicely balanced, and the effect is always pleasing. For example, In a room furnished In brown tones with hanging;* and upholsteries of blue, a Judicious use of orange-yellow or gold for the bright color note produces a harmonious effect. Knowing, then, the basic rules of color combination, and looking to nature as the best teacher in color harmony, we should apply those rules to our clothes, our homes and our handicrafts'. * j * f e / n A U n » i *U rlil ••'•'••*,/• I-I V,V<>I •> I •*•••>.«... • .

Some of the most striking combinations of black and white are seen in models of black lf.ee used In conjunction with unite velvet, A favorite way of making a dress from these materials is to develop a simple foundation of black lace with long sleeves that hang loosely to about the elbow from where they fit tightly over the lower arm and wrist. The velvet is used to form the front portion of the dress, which is in apron panel effect Often the white velvet panels carry beautiful embroidery in black. Breakfast Coat*. Breakfast coats are hewitchlngly pretty pieces of feminine wearing up pnrel nnd something that most women can make for themselves. STYLES IN EVENING GOWNS Long and Slim Dresses Chief Note at Paris Opening*—"Bouffant" Draperies Disappear. The chief characteristic about the latest among the evening gowns shown at the Paris openings is the fact that they are all long and slim. The "bouffant" draperies' of last season have all disappeared and there remain onfy those lines which follow the grace of the natural figure. All of the materials which were used In those beauteous gowns of last season urn still seen, only this year they never protrude In any way. The thicker fabrics are being used for the formal evening gowns of the winter, velvets, thick satins with heavily woven backgrounds that make them drapnble, and metal cloths, which are more apt to be plain than brocaded. The new metal materials look like thick and lustrous taffetas, with, of course, much more quality and body about them and always with that sumptuous glitter woven Into their meshes. LanviL remains faithful to the full dress, and she has created one famous model called the "Empress Eugenie." for which Is promised a • wave of popularity. It Is made of • white net with flutings for trimmings and with youthfully drooping shoulders that cannot help but charm. Lace grows and grows in feminine favor, especially for gowns for wear at night. After all it is the handsomest of all materials, and there is always that very feminine charm connected with It which cannot be duplicated by any other fabric. And because at the present time lace is more scarce than it lms ever been, therefore It is more popular for those who lead In fashion. It cannot possibly be Imitated. It must be its own handsome ' self or nothing at all. Many gowns are seen made partly of lace and partly of some other material, the two being draped together in an original manner. Lace caps are noticeably present, and lace flowing sleeves or lace overdresses are all in the limelight. aiuumiuiuiiiiumuiuimuiuiuiumiii: I The Kitchen j {Cabinet *J^g niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiniiin (<&. 1»20. Wtittn NewipkMr Union.) It la a tragic thing to think that In the big cities of America thousands of school children are underfed, and In homes where the food Is unlimited la quantity, almost everyone overeats. B U S I N E S S O F H O U S E K E E P I N G . If a general of an army has anything on a householder with seven children to bathe, feed, sew for and train In morals and manners, he would better c h a n g e places f o r o n e w e e k , when he would go back to his army and think he had an easy position. Even with a smaller family of little people It needs real generalship to manage. The Idea that all women love housework is Just as absurd as that all men like any one kind of business. But whether they like It or not, in 20,000,000 homes In our great America, some one has to prepare breakfast and get the children off to school on time. Every household has to face problems that some other household doesn't, but the independent woman who gets somewhere isn't trying to keep house according to her next-door neighbor or more influential friend, and she Is strong enough to be satisfied with the way her problems work out even If not perfect. One of the first things that a businesslike housekeeper does Is to site up her situation and decide as to what degree of perfection her housekeeping may be done to preserve the comforts of the family, her strength, and give a certain amount of time for rest, recreation and outside Interests, for it Is not businesslike to confine ourselves selfishly to our own four walls. We should give our share of service to the community. The very nature of housework makes outside interests necessary if we do not become 'back num- ' . ^ i ' " win!. iifi.>4j5.'» _ * V - ! ' - : v .

The average woman, if she has the health, prefers to do her own work, not only on account of the economy, but to get away from the annoyance of an outsider in a small house. Is It not possible for a housekeeper to look at her work as a whole and not too much In detail?

(©. 1V20. by McClur* Newspaper SyndlcaU.) "Shall we take the galloping roud?" Constance turned her horse's head Into the narrow, soft road that led to the left. The brown of her riding habit, the buy coat of her mount, the goldbrown of her hair all blended In with the autumnal tints of the trees and brush through which the galloping road ran. ? "Helen—I've always had a hunch that I'd meet my fate on this bridlepath," Constance remarked when the two horses had settled down together nto a comfortable g a i t Helen looked at her companion. "That's a cheerful thought for such a wonderful morning, dear. I'd certainly enlarge on it!" "Oh—I don't mean anything tragic," Constance hastened to explain. Then the color surged Into her cheeks for a moment. "I—I mean, I will meet the man who I shall eventually marry— here." "Who said so— the oulja board?" Constance shook her head and her bobbed brown curls danced beneath her sailor hat. "No—just a hunch." Helen suddenly laughed. "Oh—It's the Halloween atmosphere that has taken hold of you. I thought you were beyond that. Con." Constance smiled, too. "Perhaps it was the spirit of the old-tira* fairies that made me think of it today. But —I have always thought I should marry a man who was fond of horses and, If he is/ where Is there a better place to meet him than on this famous galloping road?" "There isn't—but it never works that way In every day life." Nothing further was said on the subject but Constance, born in October, always felt that the month held especial happiness for her. The thrill of rui muiGiing, inert was J yai -j «1- «.»»•>. club that night and—it was Halloween. Everything pointed to a romance for Constance. "1*11 dare you to ride to the party tonight, Helen." she said, suddenly. "There's a moon." "What of our clothes?" "Oh—It's a spook party and we can get some of the other girlt to take our black dominoes and we can put them on after we get there. A ride through this path In the moonlight would be great—and it would be different." "I'M say it would." laughed Helen. "But—I'm game. Let's get Mr. North to ride with us—and perhaps Mrs. North." "I don't care—the more the merrier. Are you on, then?" Helen loved to ride and rode well and the Idea of going on horseback to the Piping Ridge Club to a Halloween party fitted entirely Into her idea of a good time. The girls cut their morning ride a little short in view of the prospective jaunt in the evening. And when the moon was Just showing her slender silver self in the heavens, they were again on their horses and had been joined by three other equestrians who were going to the club to the same party. "Isn't it wonderful?" Constance cried as s*he galloped through the bridle path. "It Is," agreed Bert North, who was nearest to her. "But look out for the fairies tonight, Con. This Is going to be some party." When they arrived, the music was being wafted out across the clubhouse grounds, the porches were lighted with dim yellow lanterns, witches with great brooms were fanning the air, ghost-like figures were dodging from behind trees and. altogether. It was the typical old-fashioned Halloween party. "Is It just I, Helen—or do you feel queer and spooky?" whispered Constance, as the two girls slipped Into their disguising costumes in the dressing room. "Everybody feels that way at a party like this," Helen answered. But Constance had a real premonition of Impending fate. She knew there was nothing In those silly, childlike games of seeing your lover'* face In the mirror, but she felt that somewhere, somehow, tonight, she would meet someone who would mean much to her future. The orchestra was doing Its best to add to the gayety of the occasion, and the musicians were playing everything they knew that had weird, fantastic chords, plaintive themes, minor motifs. Constance was dancing with some one she could not recognize. No one spoke. Spook danced with spook, black and white together. Constance had a partner who was a perfect dancer. She tried to discover who he WAS by his step, his slae. At last the music stopped and he took her out on the porch. There, he raised his bluck hood a trifle, for air, and Constance knew that abe had never seen him before. Then she was not afraid to speak. Since | e did not know her, there was uo danger of recognizing her voice. "You are a stranger," she ventured. The mun laughed. "1 was," he said. "I do not feel like one since that riauce. Two cannot dance that wonderful waltz together and be absolute strangers. I did not know It could be waltzed to." "Liszt's 'Dream of Love,' was it not?" asked Constance. Th.' man nodded. "I am a ijuest of Mr. and Mrs. North and they pointed you out to me—they knew you, It seems, even in your disguise, and said I should enjoy this dance with you. May I consider that our introduction?" "If you think we need one," Constance replied. "To me your presence at this party is enough." The music was beginning again, "I'd rather ride than dance tonight," Constance said as she reluctantly left the porch. "Ride?" exclaimed tue man. "Do you ride?" Constance looked at him through the slits in her hood. "Foolish question. I was almost born on a horse." "So was L Let's—" he stopped suddenly as if he had forgotten himself. "Let's what?" asked Constance. "I had forgotten that I hardly knew you—and that you did not know me. I—I was about to ask you to ride a dance with me instead of dancing. I could have North's horse, I'm sure." "Would the next fox-trot be—all right?" asked Constance, by way of assent. "It would'—but let us make It three, In case we enjoy the ride," the man laughed. They were out of their spook dominoes and walking out to the stables before Constance learned that the man who had made such a deep Impression on her was Howard Tllden, a polo player she had long admired. On the galloping path she suddenly remembered what she had admitted to Helen during the day. They stopped to water their horses at the pool. -^ m_^ *• '^ •- \ " T ' 1 - J-oiH. >-*.« n? | s-JSWi?,- Constance blushed and looked up at him. "It is Halloween," she said. "So that's being done." "That It has been done, I'll explain —when I dare," the man said, significantly. Constance caught her breath. "I—I knew it was going to happen tonight." They said little on the way back to the party. But they both knew that It had been a wonderful moment—ft moment that would change the whole of their lives. GAY LIFE LED BY EXPLORER White Men Who Venture Into the Reaches of the Amazon Suffer From Stinging Insects. When Dr. William C. Forahee of the University of Pennsylvania goes to the wilds of South America for specimens for the University of Pennsylvania museum he has to hack his way through jungles infested with swarms of stinging, disease-dealing insects, and to protect himself from these attacks hns n special rig. The natives go naked in the forests and do not seem to mind greatly the pests that light upon them. They are probably sting-proof, but the white man is not. Doctor Farabee says that insects more than panthers or snakes make life unbearable along the Amazon or Its wilder reaches. The protective costume made Doctor Farabee look like a strange creature indeed. Thick, closely knit gloves with cuffs of canvas and netting reaching to his shoulders are of equal Importance with a helwet of canvas draped with something that hangs over his head, neck and shoulders. These coverings are supplemented by the labors of two negro boys, who fan and brush away gnats and mosquitoes. There are, Doctor Farabee says, no satisfactory boots to he had for such work, certainly no waterproof ones. So he wears porous boots with heavy soles; thus the water, which gets in whatever the .precautions, can get out as quickly a s possible. The Insects bite low down about the body, as well as attacking the head, neck and arms. In an endeavor to thwart them, Doctor Farabee drapes his legs to the knees with double thicknesses of mosquito nettine. This gets slimy from the morasses and clings to him. Then Insects bite through it nnd It must he changed frequently more than once a day. Pathetic Appeal. Mary's house had been struck by lightning and pretty badly damaged.

To the- People Of this Vicinity, Men and Women: When the represontaiiv.- of this paper callod on the BTeeple Hardware Company to see what they had to say about advertising" this week Mr. John J . T e eple they were too busy to attend to the matter and requested us to write an ad, using our own judgment about what to say You all know what this tirm is up against riffht now 8 1 There are just 21 Ladies Cloth Coats left and they are all very choice garments. Newest Styles—Rich Fabrics—Pretty shades of blues and browns—many with that wrappy effect so popular now. We can list only a few, but every one is just HALF PRICE. THEY NEED MONEY J u s t imagine 3-ourself in their predicament and ask yourself if you too, would not need it. And we are sure, knowing the community as well as we do. that every man or woman who owes this concern—the oldest mercantile firm in this part of the county—will come down this week and pay their accounts in full if possible. If this is not possible, give them what you can on account, and if you are not just at present in a position to do either, you surely can come down and give them a hearty, sympathetic handshake and tell themyou will do the best you can as quickly as possible. The future of this concern is largely in your hands at the present critical time.
