The Fire Hall is now completed. It is a fine brick structure, an ornament to the village. Xo pains were spared to build the building right in every way, and the brick work, done by Ivan Richesun, of Stnckbridge and the carpenter work done by Neal McClear of Gregory are of the kind that only thorough mechanics turn hut. The council committee in charge of the erection of the buildings is President C. I,. Sigler, K. I). Cnpple and T. K. Weeks.

Thanksgiving Should Mean More Than Mere Feeling of Gratitude for Favors It Is to be regretted that the beautiful and appropriate custom of observing a day of Thanksgiving has become associated with an abundance of material things. If crops have been bountiful, If the harvest has been great, if there has been an overflow of the "good" things of earth, and If the time* have been peaceful, reasons for thanksgiving are supposed to increase correspondlttglj. There is something in the outward tradition of Thanksgiving that would appear to justify this stressing of the Importance of material things; but there is also something In the real Thanksgiving that would demand the stressing of other things, demand the placing of emphasis upon spiritual matters rather than upon conditions which pertain solely to the physical well being of man. The real Thanksgiving demands a feeling of deep appreciation for whatever has come, the acceptance "with equal thanks" of the good fortune or the bad fortune of previous months. This Thanksgiving is essentially an internal thing—it can be observed regardless of what one had for dinner that day, and its observance is aH affair that should be open to the rich and the poor of the earth. It may well be that some, on this day of taking stock and expressing gratitude for blessings, can find little of good that has come to them as the world counts good. But these are the ones for whom Thanksgiving may hold the deepest reality. These may say: "Lord, for life, Its love, its hope, its interest, its opportunity for service; for the great and durable satisfactions of living that center about home and work; for deep and abiding memories of Joy that bereavement has brought into sharp relief; for all these blessings may I be truly thankful." To this prayer may be added by those In prosperity: "And may I be mindful lest in the excess of good things I become selfcentered and forget my obligations to my fellow men." Pessimism Has No Place in the Real Spirit of Time of Thanksgiving After having devoted so much of our time to bemoaning the misfortunes that have come to us as a people during the past year, it will do us good on this Thanksgiving day to stop an& look at the other side of the ledger and cast up the account of the good things that have come to us. Our situation admittedly has not been as favorable In many respects as we could desire. We have had problems and difficulties which naturally aroused dissatisfaction and discontent. We have been feeling mighty sorry for ourselves. - Perhaps Thanksgiving occasion could bring no greater blessing to us as a peopJe thnn to readjust our perspective and displace pessimism with a new spirit of optimism. Before we enter Into the true spirit of the day it is necessary to put away our hatreds, our grouches and discontents and center our thoughts upon the blessings that have come. If one would give thanks he must realize the fact of having been blessed, and in doing so he minimizes the misfortunes he has experienced. The pessimist Is In no position to give thanks. The spirit of optimism will possess us to the extent that we are able to give thanka in spirit and In truth to the Giver of All Good Gifts today. For the fact remains that, In spite of our difficulties, we are the most prosperous and the most favorably situated nation on the earth and that we have more reasons for contentment and gratitude than any other peoffta* This Thanksgiving day, if observed In the spirit of those who inaugurated It, is cupable of lifting the spirit and thought of the American people to new heights and of ushering In a new era of contentment and happiness. Thanksgiving day comes to mean today not only an occasion when we may express our gratitude to the Most High for His care and kindness in the past, but likewise a time when by marshaling OUD blessings before us we are inspired with new hope and cour* age for the future. Cranberries Always Have Played Prominent Part at Thanksgiving Feast It Is a tradition in Plymouth that the easing of turkey and cranberry sauce on Thanksgiving day goes back to the first Pilgrim Thanksgiving. That little band of self-exiled, devoted Christians crossed the stormysea in the Mayflower and landed at Plymouth Rock on December 21, 1620. Their first winter in the New World was one of great suffering, marked with famine and hardships. Governor Bradford, In his account of the Pilgrims' first Thanksgiving, does not give a menu of the dinner, but he often refers to the wild turkeys as one of the luxuries of the colony. However, John Josslyn, an English traveler and naturalist, who visited New England in 1638 and wrote an account of Its "Rarities," says: "Cranberry or bearberry (because bears used much to feed upon them) is a small trayling plant that grows In salt marshes that are overgrown with moss. The Indians and English use them much, boiling them with sugar for sauce to eat with their meat." That cranberries belong to the traditional Pilgrim dinner is shown by the menu of the "decent repast" served at the first "Celebration of the Landing of Our Forefathers," which was observed on December 22, 1769. This day was celebrated by the Old Colony club of Plymouth with a procession am] a dinner consisting of a large baked Indian whortleberry pudding, a dish of sauquetach (succotash), a dish of clams, a dish of oysters and a dish of codfish, a haunch of venison, roasted by the first Jack brought into the colony; a dish of fowl, cranberry tarts, a dish of fresh fish and eels, an apple pie, a course of cheese made in the old colony. These articles were dressed in the plainest manner (all appearance of luxury, whose memory we shall ever respect). * Turkey, succotash and cranberries still play their part In the Thanksgiving dinners in Plymouth, and five grains of parched corn are laid beside each place in remembrance of the early years of famine. * 41 n Says of old CHIT Pilgrim aires, ^ttavied from pwtilervccfarriine.w*?; Wedged taitfc anew r o ^ rwmejiead And set a day ifietr tfemkj io jft< 'Qitritia- These modern days whfi blessings great: ) Theworldat peacetime rsarvests vast; * ttig&t we toot pause, a moment wait-* * v kTo offer ifianlu, as in ifie past.

ALL, with its garnered harvests, reminds us of Thanksgiving day— both the feast that has become a national fixture and the thanks that should form no small part of the observance of the holiday. And Thanksgiving reminds us of the Pilgrims of the Mayflower and the tercentenary observances that have, lapped over into 1921. To listen to the proud descendants of the Pilgrims and to see the relics and furniture that "came over in the Mayflower" Is to smile. As a matter of fact records and relics of the Pilgrims are much like angels' visits. For instance, Governor William Bradford's "History of the Pllmoth Plantation" and "Mourt's Relation," supposed to have been written by Bradford and Edward Winslow to friends In England, contain the only accounts of the Mayflower's voyage. It was not until 1855 that Americans discovered that the complete manuscript of Governor Bradford's history was reposing In a London library. It waspublished In 1856 for the first time.

Some historians say that he was One Christopher Jones and a trustworthy man; others hold that he was Capt. Thomas Jones, a sort of retired pirate. There is no authentic record of the accommodations of the Mayflower and no exact description of the vessel. Some believe she was at one time a slaver. In fact the historians get the first authoritative evidence that the name of the vessel of the Pilgrim's was "Mayflower" from the "Allotment of Lands," an official document drawn up at Plymouth in March, 1623. It is thought that the group of autographs at the upper left, includes all the known signatures of those who came In the Mayflower, except that of Dorothy May, who was,then the wife of William Bradford. Resolved White was then but a child and Peregrine White was not born until the Mayflower had reached Cape Cod harbor. The portrait of Governor Edward Winslow* Is the only authentic likeness of any of the Mayflower Pilgrims. It was painted in England in 1651, when Winslow was 56. It has been several times engraved. The original, once the property of Isaac Winslow, is now deposited in the gallery of the Pilgrim Society at Plymouth. Contrary to the popular belief the actual relics of the Mayflower Pilgrims are few. It is believed yiat the celebrations of the tercentenary in America, England and Holland have brought to light some new records and relics, the authenticity of which will stand the closest investigation. An undoubted autograph of John .Robinson, pastor of the Pilgrims in Leyden, Is one of the relics that has been unearthed. It was found in Leyden by Dr. Eekhof among the notarial papers in the city's archives. John Robinson, as every American should know, was the- pastor of the little group of religious radicals who first gathered 'at 8crooby, England, about 1606 and later became known to history as the Pilgrims. Prom Scrooby they went to Amsterdam and then to Leyden. When they decided to go to America the question was: How many would go and who? It was decided that Robinson should lead them, If the majority voted to go. If the majority voted not to go, William Brewster was to lead these who went. The majority voted not to go. Robinson never saw the New World, He died March 1, 1625, and was burled ta Leyden. Hitherto no wholly authenticated signature of John Robinson has been known. The two reproduced have been half-heartedly accepted by historians. The upper signature is given by Dr. H. M. Dexter in "Congregationalism as Seen in Its Literature" (1880) as from a book in the British museum, believed by the experts of that institution to have belonged to him. This book is a pamphlet, "a Persvvaslon to the English Recusants," by John Dove, D. D., printed in 1602. It is presumably by the same hand as the lower signature, which Is upon the title page of Sir Edwin Sandys' "Relation of the State of Religion" (London, 1605,) which belonged to the late Charles Deane of Cambridge. It was supposed that John Robinson once owned the treatise. Of the new authentic signature the London Graphic eayr: "—~ "The Leyden deed signed by John Robinson, of whose autograph Dr. Eekhof is assured, refers to a debt acknowledged by Robinson, Thomas Brewer, and William Jepson—the latter being also well-known members of the Pilgrim community. Brewer possessed money and position, and, jointly with another, set up a printing press In Leyden. Jepson Is described as a carpenter and merchant. They covenanted to pay seven hundred and fortyfour guilders by a certain date. A later entry confirms the fact that the debt was discharged before the period mentioned. In the second document, dated a week before the Pilgrim fathers left Holland tn the Speedwell, William Bradford authorized two of his friends who remained behind to collect one hundred carol us guilders which were owing to him as a mortgage by a Leyden citizen. "Dr. Eekhof's discovery also disclosed the will of John Robinson's widow. This was drawn up eighteen years after the Pilgrim fathers' pastor had passed away. She remained in the city, and at the time of her death had four children, to whom she devised her belongings. To each and all she bestowed something of value. Her son Isaac had gone out to New England with the Pilgrims, had married and settled there. To his wife his mother bequeathed the long cloak and skirt of black cloth of appearer.* To the son, who was a doctor in England, was given his father's Rhemlsh Testament "Dr. Ploolj, of Leyden, and Dr. Rendel Harris, Ryland's library, Manchester, have also collaborated in other researches. They have Issued a facsimile ^edition of those portions of W-ii-5^. --^^-^- w"Xw~f3* and later of the marriage itself and the names of the officiating magistrates." A document relating to William Bradford was also found by the Ley« den professor, and these three created a sensation nmong those who had gathered at Leyden this summer to pay their tributes to the founders. In the Boston Transcript, George H. Sargent presents translations of these documents made by^A.. J. F. Van Laer, state archivist of New York, and authority on Dutch notarial documents. The task of translation was not easy, as It is said: "Tlie document which bears the Robinson signature is an acknowlegment of indebtedness, given by Brewer, Robinson, and Jepson in behalf of Seigneur Jehan de Lalaing for the sum of seven hundred and forty-four gullders, thirteen stivers, and three pence on uccount of several years' accumu lated Interest, the last due on May day, 1621. The three subscribers promise to pay this on May day, 1621, without further delay, this agreement being drawn up by the notary and signed on January 2, 1621, at his office on the Breestraat, In the presence of the notary's clerk, Jan Jacobsz. van Tethrode and Willem Cornellsz. Ket, a farm-or 'burym'an' of the manor of Rljinsburch. . . ." The late George Frisbie Hoar, United States Senator from Massachusetts and a descendant of Roger Sherman, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, tells In his "Autobiography of Seventy Years" (1903) how he recovered the history by William Bradford, the second governor, containing the Mayflower Compact. Just how It got to England nobody knows, but for more than a century It had reposed in the library of the bishop of London at Fulhara palace. Senater Hoar armed himself with letters of Introduction in 1896 and made a respectful demand on Dr. Temple, then bishop of London. Dr. Temple agreed that the precious manuscript ought to be restored to American custody, but* suggested that the request should be referred to the Archbishop of Canterbury and Queen Victoria. So Senator Hoar returned to America and Inspired the drafting of a formal request for the return of the manuscript in the name of the antiquarian and historical societies. Dr. Temple had In the meantime become Archbishop of Canterbury and gave his assistance, with the result that the precious manuscript now reposes in the library of the state house of Massachusetts.

She tells him of strange murders and robberies of which she suspects a band headed by Peterson. CHAPTER I—Continued. ••Admiring my treasures?* he remarked; 'Pretty things, aren't'they? I couldn't speak a word: I just put them back on the table. * 'Wonderful copies,' he went on, *of the duke of Melbourne's lost miniature*. I think they would deceive moat people.' "•They deceived me/ I managed to get out "All the ttoae he was staring at me, a cold, merdiess stare that seemed to freeze my brain. Then he went over to one of the safes and unlocked i t 'Oome here, Miss Benton,' he said. There are a lot more—copies/ MI only looked Inside for a moment hot I have never seen or thought of such a sight. Beautifully arranged on black velvet shelves were ropes of pearls, a gorgeous diamond tiara, and a whole heap of loose, uncut stones. And In one corner I caught a glimpse of the most wonderful gold chaliced cop—just like the one for which Sam- HPl I/ftYT. ttfeiite^Piflney^Baerr-'Baa^ was speaking again. "Do you remember that man who waa found dead in a railway carriage at Oxbey station. He waft an Italian—Giuseppe by name; and the Jury brought in a ver* diet of death from natural causes, A month before, he had an interview with Lakington, which took place at our house: because the Italian, being a stranger, came to the wrong place, and Lakington happened to be with us at the time. The interview finished with a fearful quarrel." She turned to Drummond with a slight smile. "Not much evidence, Is there? Only I know Lakington murdered him. I know it. You may think I'm fanciful—imagining things; yoa may think Pm exaggerating. I don't mind if you do—because you won't for long/' Drummond did not answer immediately. Against his saner judgment he was beginning to be profoundly impressed, and, at the moment he did not quite know what to say. "What about this other man?" he asked at length. "I can tell you very little about him," whe answered. "He came to The Elms —that is the name of Lakington's house—three months ago. He is about medium height and rather thick-set; clean-shaven, with thick brown hair, flecked slightly with white. His forehead is broad, and his eyes are a sort of cold grey-blue. But it's his hands that terrify me. They're large and white and utterly ruthless." She. turned to him appeallngly. "Oh! don't think rm talking wildly," she implored. "He frightens- me to death— that man: far, far worse than Lakington. He would stop at nothing to gain his ends, and even LakJagton himself knows that Mr. Peterson is his master." "Peterson!" murmured Drummond. "Tf seems, quite a sound bid English name." Vie girl laughed scornfully. ?Otal the name is sound enough, if It w i s J^ls real one. As it Is, It's about as teriea which op to date he had regarded as existing only in the realms of dime novels. He turned into his rooms, and stood in front of the mantelpiece taking off his gloves. It was as he was about to lay them down on the table that an envelope caught his eye, addressed to him in an unknown handwriting. Mechanically he picked it up and opened it. Inside was a single half-sheet of notepaper, on which a few lines had been written in a small, neat hand. "There are more things in heaven and earth, young man, than a capability for eating steak and onions, and a desire for adventure. I imagine that you possess both: end they are useful assets In the second locality mentioned by the poet In heaven, however, one never knows—especially with regard to the onions. Be careful." Drummond stood motionless for a moment, with narrowed eyes. Then he leaned forward and pressed the bell. "Who brought this note, James V* he said quietly, as his servant came into the room. "A email boy, sir. Said I was to be sure and see you got it most particular." He unlocked a cupboard near the window and produced a tantalus. "Whisky, sir, or cocktail?" "Whisky, I think, James." Hugh carefully folded the sheet of paper and placed it in his pocket. And his face as he took the drink from his map would have left no doubt in an onlooker's mind as to why, In the past, he bad earned the name of "Bull-Dog" Drummond. CHAPTER I I . In Which He Journeys, to Godalming and tha -Qama Begins* ONE. , IfiS "I almost think, James, that I could mi. In the criminal Una. eXe went even so far as to say that ae was the second most dangerous man in England." "Indeed, sir. More coffee, sir?" •fWill nothing move you, James?" remarked hla master plaintively. "This man murders people and does things like that you know." "Personally, sir, I prefer a picturepalace. But I suppose there ain't no accounting tor 'obblea. May X clear away, sir?1' "No, James, not at present Keep quite still while I go on, or I shall get it wrong. Three months ago there arrived at The Elms, the most dangerous man in England—the IT of ITS. This gentleman goes by the name of Peterson, and he owns a daughter. From what Miss Benton said, I have doubts about that daughter, James." He rose and strolled over to the window. "Grave doubts. How* ever, to return to the point it appears that some unpleasing conspiracy is being launched by IT, the IT of ITS, and the doubtful daughter, Into which Papa Benton has been unwillingly drawn. As far as I can make out, the suggestion is that I should unravel the tangled skein of crime and extricate papa." In a spasm of uncontrollable excitement James sucked his teeth. "Lumme, it wouldn't 'alf go on the •tared at me In silence. *"A)1 copies/ he said quietly, 'wonderful copies. And should you ever be tempted to think otherwise—ask your father, Miss Benton. Be warned by me: don't do anything foolish. Ask yonr father first"' "And did you?" asked Drummond. 8he shuddered. "That very evening," she answered. "And daddy flew into a frightful passion, and told me r*tw*-« "Admiring My Treasures?*' Ha RemaYked, "Pretty Things, Aren't They!" atvar to dare to meddle in things that didn't concern me again. Then gradually, as time went on, I realized that -Lakington had some hold over daddy— s r # a t he'd got my father in his power." mm hands were clenched, and her fjteast rose and fell stormily. Drowmond waited for her to com* pose herself before he spoke again. "Too mentioned murder, too," he reiSbe nodded. T v e got no proof," aha said, "less even than over the burglaries. But there was a man called George Dringer, and one eve* adng, when "Lakington was dining with as, I heard him discussing this man with daddy. *- M He's got to go/ .said Lakington. 'Ha's-wJangerousr "And then my father got up and elissd the door; hot I heard them ar* going for half an hour. Three weeks later a coroner's Jury found that Qoorge Dringer had committed suicide while, temporarily insane. The same evening daddy, for the first time in his Mfe, went to bed the worse for drink." , The girl fell silent, and Drummond ^stared at the orchestra with troubled ••Vta*;' Things seemed to be rather e>*r>er >'nn he had anticipated. "9'fcfn i h«re waa another case," She "By the name of Irma," said the girl briefly. "She lies on a sofa in the garden and yawns. She's no more English than that waiter." A faint smile flickered over her companion's face; he had formed a fairly vivid mental picture of Irma. Then he grew serious again. "And what is It that makes you think there's mischief ahead?" he asked abruptly. The girl shrugged her shoulders. "What the novelists call feminine Intuition, I suppose," she answered. "That—and my father/' She said the last words very low. "He hardly ever sleeps at night now: I hear him pacing up and down his room—hour after hour, hour after hour. Oh 1 it makea me mad. . ( . . Don't you understand? I've got to get him away from those devils, before he breaks down completely." Drummond nodded, and looked away. While she had been speaking he had made up his mind what course to take, and now, having outsat everybody else, he decided that it waa time for the Interview to cease. Already an early diner was having a cocktail while Lakington might return at any moment. And if there was anything in what she had told him, it struck him that it would be as well for that gentleman not to find them together. "I think," he said, "we'd better go. My address Is 60A Half Moon street; my telephone 1284 Mayfair. If anything happens, If ever you want m e - at any hour of the day or night—ring me up or write. If I'm not In, leave a message with my servant Denny. He is absolutely reliable. The only other thing is your own address." "The Larches, near Godalming," an* swered the girl, as they moved toward the door. "Oh I if you only knew the glorious relief of feeling one's got some one to turn to . . ." She looked at him with shining eyes, and Drummond felt his poise quicken suddenly. "May I drop you anywhere?" he asked, as they stood on the pavement but she shook her head. "No, thank you. I'll go in that taxi." She gave the man an address, and stepped in, while Hugh stood bareheaded by the door. "Don't forget' he said earnestly. "Any time of the day or night And while I think of it—we're old friends. Can that be done? In case I come and stay, you see." She thought for a moment and then nodded her head. "All right" she answered. "We've met a lot in London during the war." With a grinding of gear wheels dthe taxi drove off, leaving Hugh'-with; a vivid picture imprinted on bis: mind"'" of blue eyes, and white teeth, isnd a skin like the bloom of a sun-kissed peach* For a moment or two he stood star* tetf after i t and then he walked across to his own car. With his mind still foil of the interview he drove slowly along Piccadilly, while every now and then he smiled grimly to himself/ Was the whole thing an elaborate hoax? 8omehow deep down in his mind, he wondered whether it waa a Joke— whether, by some freak of fate, ha had three dozen letters in groups. *"I've got a journey in front of me today, and I reoBftre a large breakfast." James Denny supplied the deficiency from a dish that was standing on an electric heater. "Are you going for long, sir?" "I don't know, James. It all depends on circumstances. ' Which, when you come to think of i t is undoubtedly one of the most fatuous phrases in the English language. la there anything in the world that doesn't depend on circumstances?" "Will you be motoring, sir, or going by train T asked James prosaically. Dialectical arguments did not appeal to him. "By car," answered Drummond. "Pajamas and a tooth-brush." 'Ton won't take evening clothes, sir?" "No. I want _my visit to appear unpremeditated James, and if one goes about completely encased In boiled shirts, while pretending to be merely out for the afternoon, people have doubts as to one's intellect" James digested this great thought in silence. "Will you be going far, sir?" he asked at length, pouring out a second cup of coffee. "To Godalming. A charming spot I believe, though I've never been there. Charming inhabitants, too, James. The lady I met yesterday at the Carlton lives at Godalming." "Indeed, sir," murmured Jamea noncommittally. "You d—«1 old humbug," laughed Drummond, "you know you're itching to know all about i t I had a very long and Interesting talk with her, and one of two tilings emerges quite dearly from our conversation. Either, James, I am a congenital idiot, and don't know enough to come in out of the rain; or we've hit the goods. That is what I propose to find out by my little excursion. Either our legs, my friend, are being pulled till they will never resume their normal shape; or that advertisement has succeeded beyond our wildest dreams." "There are a lot more answers In this morning, sir." Denny made a movement toward the letters be had been sorting. "One from a lovely widow with two Hiildren." "Lovely," cried )>rummond. "How forward of her!" He glanced at the letter and smiled. "Care, Jamea, and accuracy are essential In a secretary. The misguided woman calls herself tlonely, not lovely. She will remain so, as far as I am concerned, until the other matter is settled." "Will it take long, sir, do you think?" "To get It settled r Drummond lit a cigarette and leaned back in his chair. ^lUeten, James, and I will out* line the case. The maiden lives at a house called The Larches, near Godalming, with her papa. Not far away is another house called The Elms, owned by a gentleman of the name of Henry Lakington—a nasty man, Jamas, with a nasty face—who was also at the Carlton yesterday afternoon for a short time. And now we come to the point. Mlaa Benton-— that is the lady's name—accuses Mr. It was. Phyllis Benton was at liberty to cootinue the Jest wherever and whenever she liked. Phyllis Benton was a very nice girl, and very nice girls are permitted a lot of latitude. A persistent honking behind aroused him from his reverie, and he pulled into the side of the road. An open cream-colored Rolls-Royce drew level, with five people on board, and he looked up as it passed. There were three people in the back—two men and a woman, and for a moment his eyes met those of the man nearest him. Then they drew ahead, and Drummond pulled up to avoid the thick cloud of dust With a slight frown he stared at the retreating car; he saw the man lean over and speak to the other man; he saw the other man look around. Then a bend in the road hid them from sight, and still frowning, Drummond pulled out his case and lit a cigarette. For the man whose eye he nad caught as the Kolls went by was Henry Lakington. There was no mistaking that hard-lipped, cruel face. Presumably, thought Hugh, the other two occupunts were Mr. Peterson and the doubtful daughter, Irma; Presumably they were returning to The Elms. And incidentally there seemed no pronounced reason why they shouldn't. But, somehow, the sudden appearance of Lakington had upset him; he felt Irritable and annoyed. What little lie had seen of the man he had not liked; he did not want to be reminded of him, especially Just as he was thinking of Phyllis. He watched the white dust-cloud rise over the hill in front as the c*r topped it; he watched it settle and drift away In the faint breeze. Then he let in his clutch and followed quite slowly in the big car's wake. There had been two men in front— the driver and unornev, and ha W|S* dered idly if the hi iter was Mr. Benton. He accelerated up the hill and swung over the top; the next; moment he braked hard and r»frlled u?» Just in time. The Kollc. wlih the chauffeur peering into the bonnet, had stopped in such a position that it was impossible for him to get by. The girl wus still seated in the back of the car, also the passenger tn front, but the two other men wor* standing In the roud apparently watching the chauffeur, and after a while the one whom Dranimond had recognized as Lakltrgtorr come toward him. "I'm sorry," he began—and then paused in surprise. "Why, surely It's Captain Drummond i" MOTHER!

"Better than them Red Indians and things." "I fear, James, that you are not in the habit of spending your spare time at the British museum, as I hoped," said Drummond. "And your brain doesn't work very quickly. The point is not whether this hideous affair la better than Red Indians and things—-but whether it's genuine. Am I to battle with murderers, or shall I find a house party roaring with laughter on the lawn?" "As long as you laughs like . 'ell yourself, sir, I don't see as 'ow it makes much odds," answered Jamea. ""The first sensible remark you've made this morning," said his master hopefully. "I will go prepared to laugh." He picked up a pipe from the mantelpiece, and proceeded to fill It, while James Denny waited in silence. "A lady may ring up today," Drummond continued. "Miss Bentou, to be exact Don't say where I've gone, if she does; but take down any message, and write it to me at Godalming postofflce. If by any chance you don't hear from me for three days, get in touch with Scotland Yard, and tell 'em where I've gone. That covers everything If it's genuine. If, on the other hand, it's a hoax, and the house-party is a good one, I shall probably want you to come down with my evening clothes and some more < kit" "Very good, sir. I will clean your small Colt revolver at once." Hugh Drummond paused In the act of lighting his pipe, snd a grin spread slowly over his face. "Excellent" he said. "And see if you can find that water-squirt pistol I used to have— Son of a Gun, they called i t That ought to raise a laugh, when I arrest the murderer with it" TWO. The 80 h.p. two-seater made short work of the run to Godalming. As Drummond thought of the two guns rolled up carefully in his pajamas— the harmless toy and the wicked little automatic—he grinned gently to himself. The girl had not rung him up during the morning, and after a comfortable lunch at his club, he had started about three o'clock. The hedges, fresh with the glory of spring, flashed past; the smell of the country came sweet and fragrant on the air. There was a gentle warmth, a balm- Iness in the day that made it good to be alive, and once or twice be sang under his breath through sheer lightheartedness of spirit Surrounded by the peaceful beauty of the fields, with an occasional village half hidden by great trees from under which the tiny houses peeped out, It seemed impossible that crime could exist—laughable.

"Any friend of Miss Benton's is, I hope, ours," said Peterson with s smile. "You've *nown her a long time, I expect?" "Quite a long tf.ne," returned Hugs. "We have Jazzed together on many occasions." "Which makes it all the more unfortunate that we should have da layed you," said Peterson. "I can* help thinking, Lakington, that that new chauffeur is a bit of a^ool."^ "I hope he avoided the crash all right," murmured Dnimmond politely. Both men looked at him. "The crash!" said Lakington. "There was no question of a crash. We just stopped." "Really," remarked Drummond. *1 think, sir, that you must be right In your diagnosis of your chauffeur's mentality." He turned courteously ts Peterson. "When something goes wrong, for a fellah to stop his car, by braking so hard that he locks both back wheels, is no bon, as we used to say In France. I thought, judging by the tracks in the dust, that yos must have been in Imminent danger of ramming a traction engine. I won der If I could help your man," hi continued. "I'm a bit of an expert wttk a Rolls." "How very kind of you," said Peter* son. "I'll go and see." He went over to the man and spoke a few words.

As long, probably, as Mr. Peter* son had remained here talking, that chauffeur would have gone on tinker* lng with the engine. And now—look, in a second—all serene. And yet I dare say Mr- Peterson knows nothing about it really. Just ' the watching eye, Mr. Lakington. Wonderful thing —the human optic."

HERE'S WHAT HENRY FORD SAYS ABOUT FARMING IN THE FUTURE There will be many who may not agree with Mr. Ford on his prophet* ies: but it should be remembered that he is a practical engineer, a practical farmer and a practical man. His interview published in the Free Press is instructive as well as inter* esting—particularly so to the people of this vicinity where one of his factories is to be erected. "1 tell you it is time that we awakened to •th*.* neglected opportunities that our country presents. It is time that we .should do something more thun complain of unemployment, It is also time tli.it we paid some attention to modern methods of agriculture. "Fanners may not know it hut the old methods of agriculture art' about ready to jro. The farmers of the very near future are jroirtf; to he bright, snappy young men from the cities. They are going to make more money while devoting but a fraction of the time to agriculture that the old-fashioned farmer put in. . « >i'i '> VISIONS mer "Fully in) per cent of the farmer's work to-day is unecessary. They do not sufficiently fertilize the soil and they do not use enough machinery. Four-Day Harvest "1 harvested four thousand bushels of wheat on my Dearborn farm last summer and the operation required just four da\s. Twenty days a year is enough lo do the work on any farm if it is done with machinery and in the right way. "The farmer of the very near future will be a man who will divide his time among three occupations, Twenty days of each year- he will devote to agriculture. Five or ten days more he will devote to transportation, during which he will load his products on Jiiotor trucks and whirl them over good roads to bis market. -— "The rest of the year he will devoteto industry, by which 1 mean that he will be employed in a factory near TURKEY and cranberry sauce, plum pudding.and apple pie—these are the things that make Thanksgiving a banner day for the little folks.

(Prepared by^ the United States _Dg|>arj.- (Mi the feeding of the flock dr,pends to a large extent not only the genera] health of the^blrds, but also the economy which promotes success. It Is a subject, however, which should be studied with a large amount «f common sense, for there are no hard and fnst rules which can be laid down as applying to every case. The price of feeds and the general environment should be considered In determining the right rations, say poultry specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. For the largest profit a gonrl proportion of the eggs should be secured during the winter. If two extra eggs a week can be obtained from each hen a good profit will be niHde, while if the product is Increased by only one egg a week in winter, this one egg will pay for all the feed the hen eats. To obtain this greatf'r production not only should the fowls be young arid of a good laying breed, but the feeder should have full knowledge of the proper feed and its preparation. The nutriment in the feed of laying hens servos a twofold purpose—to repair waste and furnish heat to the body and to supply the egg-making materials. As only the surplus over what Js needed for the body is avail able for egg production, the propei feeds should be fed in sutTlcient quantities to Induce this production. In supplying feed to fowls there are three kinds of constituents which should be present in certain fairly well-fixed proportions If the desired results are to be obtained most economically. These constituents are mineral, nitrogenous and carbonaceous; all which ar£ contained in corn, wheat, oats and barley, but not In the right proportions to give the greatest egg yield. In addition some animal feed nnd green feed should be supplied.

For "because it is a Ford" means dependability, ease of operation, efficiency —and it means sure, quick transportation. And "because it is a Ford1' means good taste, pride of ownership and genuine Common Sense. The Ford Sedan, a closed car of distinction, beauty and convenience, is the ideal all year 'round car, for pleasure or business—for the farm, town of city. It gives you all that any car can give at a much lower cost for operation and maintenance.

The other three. Hocking, American, and Steineman and Von Qrats. Germane, all millionaires, agree to the scheme, providing another man, Hiram Potta, an American, Is taken In. The Instigator of the plot gives his name aa Comte de Guy, but when he leaves for England with L hfs daughter ha decides to use the w name Carl Peterson. Capt Hugh (Bull-Dog) Drumraond, a retired officer, advertises for work that will give him excitement, signing "X10." As a result he meets Phyl- Ua Benton, a young woman who aaswered his ad. She tells hire of strange murders and robberies of which she suspects a band headed by Peterson and Henry Laklngton. Drummond decides to go to The Larches, Miss Benton's homo.

"And if It Isn't born In a man, be should most certainly try to cultivate It. Shall ww be seeing you this evening?" maid hesitated. "That I happened to find myself near here, and cume m> chance of seeing her?" Once again the smile was called Into play, and the girl hesitated nolonger. "Will you come inside, sir?" she said. "I will go and tell Miss Phyllis." She ushered him into the drawing- room and closed the door. It was a charming room, just such as he would have expected with Phyllis. Big windows, opening down to the ground, led out on to a lawn, which was already a blaze of color. A few great nak trees threw a pleasant shade at the end of the garden, und partially showing through them, he could see another house which he rightly assumed was The Elms In fact, even as he heard the door open and shut behind him, be saw Peterson come out of a small summer-house and commence strolling up and down, smoking a cigar. Then be turned round and faced the girl. Charming as she had looked in London, she was doubly so now, in a simple linden frock which showed off her figure to perfection. But If he thought he was going to hnve any leisure to enjoy the picture undisturbed, he was soon disillusioned. "Why have you come here, Captain Drummond?" she said, a little breathlessly. "I said the Carlto; the day after tomorrow." "Unfortunately," said Hugh, I "I'd left London before that message came. My servant wired it on to the postoftlce here. Not that It would nave made any difference. I should have come, anyway."

And his many friends, who were wont to regard Hugh Drummond aa a mass of brawn not too plentifully supplied with brains, would have been puzalod had they seen the look of keen concentration on his face, as he stared •long the white dusty road. He could not say why, bat suddenly and very certainly the conviction had come to him that this was no hoax and no log-pull—but grim ana sober reality. fh bis Imagination he beard the sudsharp order to stop the instant were over the hill, so that Peterson might have a chance of inspecting him; In a flash of Intuition he Knew that these two" men "Were no ordinary people, and that he was susp e c t Two thoughts were dominant Jin his mind.

With a slight smile he noticed the military phraseology—Denny at one time in his career had been a signaler —and then he frowned, "Must see She should—at once.

It was on the tip of his tongue to tell her that it was too late to worry about that; then he changed his mind. "And what is there suspicious," he asked, "in an old friend who happens to be In the neighborhood dropping in to call? Wherefore your telephone message? What's the worry?" She bit her Up and, drummed with her fingers on the arm of the chair. "If I tell you." she said at length, "will you promise me, on your word of honor, that you won't go blunder lng Into The Elms, or do anything foolish like that?" "At the present moment Tm very comfortable where I am, thanks," remarked Hugh. "I know," she said; "but I'm so .dreadfully afraid that^you're the type of person who . . . who . . ." She paused, at a loss for a word. "Who bellows like a bull, and charges head down," Interrupted Hugh with a grin. She laughea with him, and Just for a moment their eyes "Ifs Vtry Dangerous for You to Coma Hero," She Remarked Quietly. met and she read in his something quite foreign to the point at issue. In fact. It la to bo feared that the question of Laklngton and his companions was not engrossing prammond's mind, as It doubtless should have been, to the exclusion of all else. "They're so utterly unscrupulous,'' she continued hurriedly, "so fiendishly clover, that even yon would bo a child In their hands." Hugh endeavored to dissemble his pleasure at that little word "even" and only succeeded la frowning nor- Hbt» 1 will be aiacretion lUeirr i*e assured her firmly. "I suppose I shall have to trust you," she said. "Have you seen the evening papers today?" "I looked at the ones that come out in the morning labeled six p. in,; before I had lunch," he answered. "Is there anything of Interest?" She handed bim a copy of the Planet. "Head that little paragraph in the second column." She pointed to it, as he took the paper, and HujJ> read it aloud. "Mr. Hirum C. Potts—the celebrated American millionaire—is progressing favorably. He has gone into the country for a few days, but is sufficiently recovered to conduct business as usual." He laid down the pap*)*; and looked at the girl sitting opposite. "One is pleased," he remarked in a puzzled tone, "for the sake of Ml. Potts. To be ill and have a nam-* like that is more than most met could stand. . . . But I don't quite oW • • • , "That man was stopping at the Carlton, where he met Laklngton." said the girl. "He is a mnitl-millionaire, over here in connectiou witli some big steel trust; and when multimillionaires get friendly with Lakinyton, their health frequently doe* suffer." "But tills paper says he's getting better," objected Drummond. "'Sufficiently recovered to conduct business as usual.'" "If he Is sufficiently recovered to conduct business as usual, why did he send his confidential secretary away yesterday morning on an urgent mission to Belfast?" "Search me." said Hugh. "Incidentally, how do you know he did?" "I asked st the Carlton this morning," she answered. "I said I'd come after a Job as typist for Mr. Potts. They told me at the Inquiry office that he was ill In bed and unable to see anybody. So I asked for his secretary, and they told me what I've Just told you—that he had left for Belfast that morning and woutd be away several days. It may be that there's nothing'in it; on the other hand, it may be that there's a lot. And It's only by following up every possible clue," she continued fiercely, "that I can hope to heat those fiends and get daddy out of their clutches." Drummond nodded gravely, and did not speak. For into his mind had flashed suddenly the remembrance of that sinister, motionless figure seated by the chauffeur. The wildest guess- Wer-W^1*'*Wrr^ * laugh at himself for his credulity— millionaires are not removed against their will. In hroad daylight, from one of the biggest hotels In London, to sit In Immovable silence in an open car —the door opened and an elderly man came tn. Hugh rose, and the girl Introduced the two men. "An old friend, daddy," she said. "Ton must have heard me speak of Captain Drummond." "I don't recall the name at the moment, my dear," he answered courteously— a fact which was hardly surprising—" but I fear I'm getting a little forgetful. You'll stop and have some dinner, of course." Hugh bowed. "I should like to, Mr. Benton. Thank you very much. I'm afraid the hour of my call wae a little Informal, but being round In these parts, I felt I must come and look Miss Benton up." — His host smiled absentmindedly, and watking to the window, stared through the gathering dusk at the house opposite, half hidden in the trees. And Hugh, who was watching him from under lowered lids, saw him suddenly clench both hands in a gesture of despair. It cannot be said that dinner was a meal of sparkling gaiety. Mr. Benton was palpably ill at ease, and beyond a few desultory remarks spoke hardly at all; while the girl,- who sat opposite Hugh, though she made one or two valinut attempts to break the long silences, spent most of the meal in covertly watching her father. If anything more had been required to convince Drummond of the genuineness of his interview with her at the Carlton the preceding day, the atmosphere at this strained and silent party supplied it. As if unconscious of anything peculiar he rambled on In his tisunl inconsistent method, heedless of whether he was answered or not; but all he time his mind was busily working. He had already decided that a Rolls- Royce was not the only car on the market which could hieak down mysteriously, and with the town so far away, his host could hardly fail ro ask hirn to stop the night. And then —he had not yet quite settled how— he proposed to have a closer look at The Rims. . At length the rne:;! was over, and the "maid, placing the decanter In front of Mr. Benton, withdrew from the room. "You'll have a glass of port, Captain Drummond?" remarked his host, removing the stopper, and pushing the bottle toward him. "An old pre-war wine which I can vouch for." Hugh smiled, and even ss he lifted the heavy old.cut glass, he stiffened suddenly In bis chair. A cry—half shout, half scream, "and stifled at once—had come echoing '-through the open wludows. With a crash the stopper fell from Mr. Beaton's nerveless Angara, brea^ •_' the finder-howl In front of aim. while every vestige pf color left hlf face. "It's sasmthirr? Mie«e dr.rs to *P able to say .that." remarked ITnzh. wlnouw. aim forced noi *c meet at* eye. "It will do you good." His tone was compelling, and after a moment's hesitation, she pushjed the glass over to him. "Will you pour it out?" she said, and be saw that she was trembling all over. "Did you—did you hear—anything?" With a vain endeavor to speak calmly, his host looked at Hugh. "That night-bird?" he answered easily. "Eerie noises they make, don't they? Sometimes in France, when everything was still, and only the ghostly green flares went biasing up. ov.e used to bear em. Startled nervous sentries out of their lives." He talked on, and gradually the color came back to the other man's face. But Hugh noticed that he drained his port at a gulp, and immediately refilled his glass. . . . Outside everything was still; no repetition of that short, strangled cry again disturbed the silepce. With the tmining bred of many hours in No Man's Land, Drummond was listening, even while he was speaking, for the faintest suspicious sound—but he heard nothing. The soft whisper- <.~.u 4«»«4 .>JUit*h i m i f i i * «U Ah » flh tm m m» ' C ^ i l — f t — . \ hear unii*.- tn u*e u«rfi*i and go to sleep again." "But what are you going to dot* she crledV Hugh grinned. "I haven't the remotest idea." be answered. "Doubtless the Lord will provide." The instant the girl had left the room Hugh switched off the ligtts, and stepped across to the curtains which covered the long windows. He pulled theni {aside, letting them come to* aether behind him; then, cautiously, he unbolted one side of the big center window. Silently be dodged across the lawn toward the big trees at the end, and leaning up against one of tbem, be proceeded to make a mora detailed survey of his objective, The Klras. It was the same type of bouse as the one be bad just left, and the grounds seemed about the same size. A wire fence separated the two places, and in the darkness Hugh could just make out a small wicket-gate, closing a path which connected both houses. He tried it, and found to hi* satisfaction that it opened silently. Save for one room on the groundfloor the house was in darkness, and Hugh determined to have a look at that room. There1 was a chink in the curtains, through which the light was streaming out. which struck him aa having possibilities. Keeping under cover, he edged toward it, and, at length, he got loto a position from which he could see inside. And what he saw made him decide to chance it, and go even closer. Seated at the table was a man he did not recognize; while on either side of him sat Laklngton and Peterson. Lying on a sofa smoking a cigarette and reading a novel was a tall dark girl, who seemed completely uninterested in the proceedings of the other three. Hugh placed her at once as the doubtful daugbter Irma. and resumed his watch on the group at the table. A paper was in front of the man, and Peterson, who was smoking a large cigar, was apparently suggesting that he should- make use of the pen which Laklngton was obligingly holding lp readiness. In all respects a harmless tableau, save for one small thing—the expression on the man's face. Hugh had seen It before o f t e n - only then it had been called shellshock. The man was dazed, semiunconscious. Every now and then ha stared round the room, as if be* wildered; then he woutd shake hit head and pass his hand wearily over his forehead.

He remembered hearing a similar cry near the brick-stacks at Gulnchy, and two nights later he had found the giver of it, at the edge of a mine-crater, with glased eyes that still held in them the horror of the final second. And more persistently than ever, his thoughts centered on the fifth occupant of the Rolls- Royce. *It was with almost a look of relief that Mr. Benton listened to his tale of woe about his car. "Of course you mutt stop here for the night," he cried. "Phyllis, my dear, will you tell them to get a room ready?" With an Inscrutable look at" Hugh, in which thankfulness and apprehension seemed mingled, the girl left the room. There was an unnatural glitter In her father's eyes—a flush on his cheeks hardly to be accounted for by the warmth of the evening; and it struck Drummond that during the time he had been pretending to look at his car, Mr. Benton had been fortifying himself. It was obvious, even to the soldier's unprofessional eye. that the man's nerves had gone topieces, his daughter's worst forebodings were likely to be fulfilled. He talked disjointed!.? and fast; his hands were not steady, and he seemed to be always waiting for something to happen. Hugh had not been in the room ten minutes before his host produced the whisky, end during the time that he took to drink a mild nightcap, Mr. Benton succeeded in lowering three extremely strong glasses of spirit. And what made it the more sad was that the man was obviously not a heavy drinker by preference. At eleven o'clock Hugh rose and said good night. "You'll ring If you want anything, won't y o u r said his host "We don't have very many visitors here, but I hope you'll tfhd everything you require. Breakfast at nine." * Drummond closed tbe door behind h*!m, and stood for a moment in silence, looking round the. hall. It was deserted, but be wanted to get the geography of the house firmly Imprinted on his mttid. He stepped across toward the drawing-room. Inside, at he hoped, he found the girl. She rose the instant he came in. and stood by the mantelpiece with her h>tnds locked. "What was it?" she haff whispered —••that awful noise at dinner?" He . looked »t her gravely for a .while, Rtj'l then he shook his head. ^Shnll we leave'It as a night-bird for the present?" he said quietly. Then he lenned toward her, and took her hands In his own. "Go to bed, little ^irl." he ordered: "this is ray show. Anrl. may I say, I think you're Just •ronilcriul. Tlmnk Ood you saw my ndveriIsomer: !" n!efij*<>d her hands, and shrink back In terror, and reaca for the pen. But what impressed him most In that momentary flash of action wat Peterson. There was something Inhuman In his complete passivity. Bven as he watched the man signing bis name, no trace of emotion showed on his face—whereas on Laklngton's there shone a fiendish satisfaction. The document was still lying on the table, when Hugh produced his revolver. He knew there was foul play about, and the madness of what he had suddeoly made up his mind to do never struck him; being that manner of fool, he was made that way. But he breathed a pious prayer that he would shoot straight—and then he held his breath. The crack of the shot and the bursting of the only electric light bulb in the room were almost simultaneous, and the next second, with a roar of "Come on, boys," he burst through the wls> dow. At. an Immense advantagt over the others, who could see nota» lng for the moment, he* blundered round the room. He timed the blow at Laklngton to a nicety; he hit him straight on the point of the jaw and he felt the man go down like a log. Then he grabbed at tbe paper on the table, which tore In his hand, and picking the dazed signer np bodily, he rushed through the window ontf the lawn. There was not an Instant to be lost; only the impossibility of seeing when suddenly plunged Intt darkness, had enabled him to poil tbe tiling off so far. And before that ad vantage disappeared ha had to be back at The Larches with his burden, nc light weight for e'*w» s man of his strength to carry. But there seemed to be no pursuit, no hue and cry. As he reached the, little gate he paused and looked back, and he fancied he saw outside the window a gleam of white, such as a shirt front. He lingered for an instant, peering into the darkness and recover* lng his breath, when with a vicious phut something buried itself In the tree beside him. Drummond lingered no more; long years of experience left no doubt in his mind at to what that something was.

And will the National Woman's foundation have headquarters in Washington? It will. In fact, It has already. This headquarters is described as "the lovely old Dean place, an old mansion surrounded by nearly ten acres of trees and lawns, a beautiful but deserted garden spot In the heart of Washington." They say the price to be paid is a million dollars or so, and the first payment has been made, the women are in possession and the foundation Is already functioning In a tentative sort of way. But this million dollars Is but a drop In the bucket—and the bucket is to be a twelve-quart affair and full to the brim. There are to be a club home, a guest house or woman's hoteL_an auditbrTum, an opera house\'~a7sy.van theater for pageants, etc., etc. How comes all this? Well, it's this way: The idea originated with Mrs. G. C. Calhoun. And she says this about Its genesis: MIt first suggested itself to me at the Democratic convention at San Francisco. I had gone out merely as a spectator, and with very little interest in suffrage. I was reared in Louisiana and I confess to still nursing the oid traditions of the South as to men doing the work and the big things and women confining their influence to the borne and community. "As the convention progressed, my eyes were opened. I was simply amazed at the speeches made by the women. They were by far the most forceful and inspiring talks I heard. And when I saw how the men treated them every prejudice I had been harboring was overturned. M'It'looks as if women are going to make pretty good national helpmates,' thought I, "but they'll make much better if their activities are centralized and they have the right sort of leadership. They'll need help to do this.' And all the way across the continent a plan was formulating in my mind, whereby I could aid, at least, the . Southern women. "Later* when I was asked by the r < \ men representing the Southern Commercial congress to become president general of their woman's auxiliary, it seemed to give- Just the impetus needed, for at once 1 saw in it an opportunity for organizing the women of ths sixteen Southern states. "Why not establish for them a clearing house at the national capital, where representatives could cojpe on ^I2" .l_tl_-_l-v 1i^^=:V^^1l^W^M working separately. 'The idea, when suggested, proved such a popular one that I wus ap- \ proached by organizations of women « in the North, requesting that it be r made a national movement, instead of being confined to the South. "The foundation will be u clearing house for the nation's housekeepers. Governed as a democracy, it will have 'no purpose of its own except to further all the purposes of forward-looking women and women's organizations. "It will be divorced from factionalism of any kind, and furnish a neutral meeting ground on which to work out woman's viewpoint on national und world questions affecting the common weal. "The foundation will be very careful to avoid duplication of specific work being done by other established agencies. -It-w4H- noHnterfererTorinatuif^er with the work of the Red Cross, but will try to improve civic conditions in small towns by working for better schools, hospitals and general health und recreation facilities. "In homely language, women need a switching board for the interchange of ideas and dissemination of information on their Infinitely various interests. "The most vital problem facing the sex on the threshold of its new endeavor Is how to take stock of itself, how to find the full measure of Its resources and marshal the strength of its collective intelligence.'1 The building program of the foundation is elaborate. It begins with the erection of a magnificent club home, beautiful as a temple, in which, all women's organizations desiring headquarters in Washington will be invited to reserve space. In conjunction with the club home* a guest bouse or woman's hotel will be built, so that members visiting in Washington may secure delightful accommodations at moderate expense. An enormous auditorium is planned, with wings holding committee rooms, offices for club members, lecture rooms and ball rooms. An opera house will be built and leased to American opera companies. There will be a sylvan theater for pageants and every modern facility for indoor and outdoor entertainment and health exercise. Plans are also completed for the erection qf a stately hall, to be known as the Hall of Remembrance. In this hall will be fifty columns, which will be- engraved with the names of the women contributing most of the history of their respective state or termoving slowly. Imports light but further offerings being mrnle. Closing prices 92 scorer New York 43c; Philadelphia 44c: Hoston 44c; Chicago 45c. r.VwmfniWWlriaftk.i^Lta1 r " ' 1 ' xms.0&i^j3A&n&tY ritory. These women will be chosen by a special commission for each state, appointed by the governor, and final Judgment on the names selected passed on by a national body of four or five distinguished educators and historians. The flag* of all states will be hung in this hall, which will be placed iu a Temple of Triumph. On the dome of ihe temple will he a figure of Woman Triumphant, holding aloft in one hand the torch of life and, in the other, the scroll of knowledge. The program of the foundation Includes.; Furtherance of the education of women in their civil rights and duties us citizens by giving and receiving instruction in history, civics and all other branches helpful to good citizenship. The maintenance of a national bureau of club information, which will be prepared at all times to furnish data concerning organized women's ao tivities of any type or locality. The issuing of a bulletin of foundstlon progress, of governmental action and plans for civic betterment and of all news calculated to keep the women of today well informed on these problems. The fostering of social Intercourses through conventions, forums, the drama, chamber music and edited films. The hold'ng of a referendum on every Important question, affecting the whole welfare of womanhood, In order to make known the consensus of women's opinions. Financial aid to movements fcr civic betterment. A sinking fund will be created and held as a permanent * endowment. The interest from this fund will be available for use. Upon the selection, of the ten acre million-dollar property twenty women, it is stated, pledged sufficient money to bind the purchase. Among the women mentioned in connection with the foundation are Mrs. John Hays Hammond, Mrs. J. Borden Horriman, Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton, Mrs. George Barnett and Mrs. Maud Wood Park, awl many other distinguished persons. An advisory board of bankers ana other business men has consented to weigh aud report upon all matters of finance.

Washington.—Experts of the American Army will advise against restricting the use of poison gases in warfare. The question is now receiving study at the hands of a board of experts, to which it was referred by the Conference on the Limitation of Armaments.

By EDWARD B. CLARK. Washington,—Washington now is in the largest sense the capital city of the World. In truth, Washington has been the cosmopolitan center of things ever since the World war began. Certainly the eyes of all the peoples of the earth are on this Potomac town today. Washington residents do not know their city. It is changed In the pro* verblal twinkling of an eye from an overgrown country village to a place restless with movement and crowded with activities. Is Washington ever to return to normalcy? Perhaps so. and perhaps not r but there are those in this town who hope that such may be the case. Once on a time, and a time uot so long ago, one at certaiu seasons could go into the loboy of the great* est hotel In this city and find, say. two or three semi-disconsolate strangers, who were wondering how they happened to land in a desert There were seasons of the year not long ago when the hotels in this town shut off from use whole floors of their buildings snd discharged fuliy one-half the members of their staff ot employees. Does anything of thar kind happen to Washington today? It does not, and the condition, while not In the remote past, already is forgotten. A visitor to this town is lucky today if he can And a place to lay his head, and luckier if he is not compelled to scowl at the charge for his bed and board, which he finds set down upon the bill which is presented to him. Washington hotel men, boarding house women and apartment bouse owners are not called upon frequently to speed the parting guest. Everyone hangs on to what he has in the way of ment for the conference on the limitation of armament which now has begun its sessions. Today men of many nations are sitting down together in an attempt to right the world. Millions of the earth's people are watching the proceedings and hoping for relief from intolerable burdens. The administration i* asking for the support of all Americans for the endeavor which it initiated. The United States already hss promised, if the others agree to follow suit, to scrap many warships. This is the time of the beginning of what not at all lightly may be called a "showdown1* on war and on anna* ments. Every .conferee plenipotentiary knows that the people of his country want success to come out of the labor that has Just started In this Capital city. It will not be long before the American people, watching the progress of the conference, will be able to determine whether the rulers and the diplomats and the "professionar officials ot the countries of the world desire success, or hope that the old order which gave to them the opportunity, but not the right, to shape national destinies shall. prevail. In articles which have attempted to give the Washington view of the various contending elements which enter into the work in hand, the extreme pacifists, the dullards who won't understand, and the militarists all have been described after their kind. Washington believes today that some of the opponents of success will try to Influence the conferees this way or that way and will resort to all kinds of technical and delaying dodges. No American Suspicion of Japan. It is going to be something of an American diplomatic task to keep the various conferees in the straight path to the main point, "the limitation of armament." It can be said, of course, with a certain deflnlteness, that if some problems are solved satisfactorily, a limitation quickly can he put upon the armaments of the world. The prickly pear cactus grows in the path leading through the chaparral Intricacies of diplomacy as It affects the Par East. In this connection It can be said today that the American government seemingly entertains no suspicion of the good faith of the Japanese, who are naturally most concerned in the methods of the solution of Oriental problems. It remains for the Japanese to show as the conference proceeds whether or not the faith of the American State department is misplaced. There seems to be a recognition in HENS THAT DO NOT MOLT UNTIL LATE ARE BEST EGG PRODUCERS ili' / XJAMA'*.- , JVM* ±—f*Mitkitlti The Best Layers ef the Flock and Those That Should Be Kept for Breed ere Do Not Molt Until November. (Prepared by tht United Statea Department of Agriculture.) Hens that devote too much attention early in the season to the fall styles in feathers are not the kind that please the flock owner. It costs too much to support them and they demand too long a vacation period, But the hen that wears her old clothes until autumn has almost passed Is the best of the flock, for she has kept on laying since the previous fall or winter So now when you see a bird that looks shabbier than the others, do not conclude that she is of the no-account kind and that her smartly dressed sisters are the ones to keen. Take Short Vacation. Of course some of the hens that molted earlier, say in August and September, are profitable enough to keep, but the cream of the flock is made up of hens that do not change their feathers until October or November. Their molting will require only a few weeks and they will probably be laying again by the 1st of Juhu'ary. The poor ones, the early-molting loafers, will not begin until about this time, even though they hnve been resting since the middle of the summer. It takes one about two months anrj the other twice that long to get back Into production.

Jones frowned. "Well, you see," he explained; "I'm very well read in this efficiency stuff, and I know, of course, that in an important conference you must always have your back to the light, so that your thoughts cannot be read.

Thus far In the preliminaries there has not come from a single soldier or sailor an intimation of a desire that present conditions in armaments shall continued American naval men seem to be willing to cut armaments, and so do American army men, although they know of the possibility of a loss of the means of livelihood for many of their brethren s^rju^ned to arms. The American sailors have acquiesced In a proposal to scrap many of their ships. What has been said here of American military men applies equally strongly to the representatives of the a>lmf(f~ services of other countries. They seem to be looking at the whole matter unselfishly, and as truth generally Is to be found with the uniform, there is little reason to doubt the sincerity of the professional soldiers and sailors. It appears today as if there will be plenty of publicity for the proceedings of the conference. There will be executive sessions, of course, because such sessions are necessary. There are certain things to be set fortlThy the representatives of each nation which they probably do not wish to set forth puhi licly l>ecause of possible mlsunderi standings. The American delegation, however, will know and understand, and the American delegation Is made up of men who are sympathetic with the cause In hand and who can be depended upon to guard the interests of the American people Unknown Must Be Always Unknown. There probably is not In the United States a father or mother whose son was reported among the missing In the World war, and of whom nothing has been heard, who does not hope In heart, all hope of seeing the loved one alive again gone, that the unknown soldier now resting in Arlington cemetery is tlie household son who went forth to war. There are fathers and mothers in this country who realize that unless the dead boy lying in Arlington were unknown beyond the possibility of future identification he would not be lying there as the representative not only of the unknown dead, hut of all the living. And yet there are other fathers and mothers who. not realizing that the government made absolutely certain that the unknown forever was to remain unknown, are writing letters to the authorities In Washington today asking for the measurements of the body of the dead unknown, asking the color of his hair, bis complexion and whether there were such and such scars upon his body. This stmiMy goes to show how hope springs eternal in the breast of the. members of a lost one's family, and of course it goes to show also that those wbo seek such Information do not know, and do not allow themselves to 3123SiEKIlfcrfbfefife-:S£ ment, albeit It Is a completed structure, might well stand today for the Tower of Babel. Interpreters are here in considerable numbers. The trouble with some few of the interpreters Is they do not know how to "lnterp." Some of them learned their English In the schools of their native land, and as there is a vast difference between a schooltaught language and a communitytaught language, the difficulties of some of the Interpreters may be un» derstood. They are willing gentlemen, but rhe>e are frequent Americanisms which are beyond the scope of their understandings and beyond the trick of their tonmies. Chinese Know "American" Tongue. The Chinese always have been noted a? good copiers. It is said that their artisans can reproduce anything on earth, when once it Is presented to them for study. The old school-hook story of the English sailor who took his patched trousers to a Chinese tailor and asked him to make him a new pair, is of course familiar. The Chinese tailor reproduced the trousers, patches and nil. So it is. perhaps, with English. The student Chinese seem to be able to reproduce the English language more perfectly than It lies within the power of the European to do. The Chinese who are here know American slang as they know the language of the American savant. They can talk "East side" or "Harvard" at will. They are a wonderful lot. English and French are the languages of the conference. It Is lucky that French was Included, for one or two of the great Frenchmen who are here do not know "Yes" or MNo" In English. Of course, all the proceedings of the conference eventually will be translated Into almost every tongue en earth, bnt first tbey will go into English and then Into French. It is said that the diplomacy of this conference will not be that kind of diplomacy which uses language to conteal thoughts. Popular Support Asked. It Is not a "presumption of knowledge'' to say that the American administration and the American congresa_| know, that the unknown must because J have a heart desire for an Intelligent, Interested * J 4 supporting public sent!-] forener remain unknown of the very circumstances in the case, she quits iaying"ahd'"starVs"fd'm6lrt',8lfl: has as much need for a ration strong In protein as she has when she is shelling out the, eggs, as feathers are highly nitrogenous in their makeup. They use the materials supplied by beef scrap, gluten feed, and oil meal. The oil meal Is very effective In keeping the feathers In a healthy condition. Hens that lay e«gs late In the fall and in the winter are really producing an out-of-season crop, for It Is normal for the hen to lay for a time In the spring and early summer and rest for the remainder of the year. Profitable hens are really those that have the capacity to force their egg-making machinery, but they must have the right sort of feed with which to do It. That means feeding well-balanced rations designed for the particular class, and sometimes for the particular -breed. A-balemeed ratton-ls-a comhlnw- | tlon of feeds which furn'sh Just the necessary amount of nutrients to produce the highest and most economical egg yields. The amount of feed needed to produce a dozen eggs varies with the kind of birds. According to experiments conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture general-purpose pullets produced a dozen eggs from 6.7 pounds of feed, and liCghorn pullets laid the same number from 4.8 pounds. Simple mixtures are usually the most desirable. As the fall advnnces and the days grow shorter the bfrds should be encouraged to put away as much feed as possible during the day so that their bodies will have plenty to work on for all of the 24 hours. A good handful of scratch grain for each bird at night will fill the crop. Tt is not dfcslrnble that the hens be made to work very hard for this feed. Be sure that the hens go to roost with a full crop. In making up rations it Is necessary to adhere to standards within certain limits, but some feeds may be substituted for others, as barley, wheat, and oats for corn. However, meat scrap and other animal-protein feeds can not be replaced by hIsh-vegetableprotein feeds. All changes should be made gradually, as sudden changes may decrease egg production. A great many poultrymen and livestock feeders now believe that If the animal has a free choice It will select the ration that Is most su'tnble. At the government farm at Beltsvllle, Md„ the following mash was made up by keeping account of the amounts of the different feeds a laying flock consumed: Samples ef Balanced Rations.

In regions where the powdery dry rot occurs a temperature of 33 to 36 degrees holds the disease in check better than a higher one. It Is found best not to store potatoes in large piles when they are moist or covered with moist earth, as they quickly develop sudicient heat to injure the vitality of the tubers. If through unfavorable weather conditions It becomes necessary to store potatoes when they are wet, and dirty, they should be spread out in a thin layer until they have become dry, after wh!ch they may be piled up. It Is not desirable to store potatoes to a "greater ttepth than six feet. Potatoes intended for table use should* always be stored In a darkened cellar or storage house. Exposure to light quickly injures the quality of the potato for food purposes. SMALL HOUSE FOR CHICKENS New Lumber Will Make Best Appearance, but Packing Boxes Will Answer Purpose Well. In building a poultry house, new lumber will of course make the best appearing structure and will also be somewhat easier to work up because It can be bought in lengths most advantageous for the purpose. Houses for a few hens can sometimes be constructed from packing boxes, while used material or second-hand lumber, If it can be purchased cheaply and is close at hand, will som.etintes lower the cost of the house materially. Occasionally, also, where a high ) board fence Is available, the house can be built In the <»orner of the fence, thus saving the construction of the back and one side of the house. Care must be used to cover or batten the cracks, either by means of strips or by the use of roofing paper. Construct the building so that the front of your henhouse will admit the sunlight.

Quaint though they seem, the rents, custom* and services paid to the prince of Wale* at Launceaton were once common enough all over England, and It would be easy to show many parallels for Lancashire and Cheshire. In the Fourteenth century In Cheshire rent In kind wan often paid in sparrow hawks, barbed arrowheads, pepper, glove* and especially in pigs. Arrowheads would be useful, but a large rent roll of the other things might be inconvenient. They were, therefore, sold, and the relative vnlues are interesting. The spa'rrowhawks were won h about 2fi rents, the gloves two cents a pair and the pepper about 'Ji cents a pound. Pigs, of course, vary in size and weight und must have given rise to controversies between bailiffs and tenants. Some approach to a standard size was doubtless obtained, and the pigs are Usually described as "reasonable" or "customary" pigs. Even so, the price the bailiff obtained varied greatly, some selling for 85 cents each and some for 90 cents. Pigs were paid not only by poor tenants for their tiny holdings, bat also by families as rich and pewarfil as the aroavenota,—llaicalteatjtecrr Guardian. -'•••••' "&, .'- "S Anyone who knows how to bundle a paint brush and oil colors or understands the new art of painting with colored sealing wax enn make the book for telephone numbers pictured here.

Archaeologists are uncovering many splendid holdings of' ancient days, some of them of great Informational value. The -neatest finds have been uncovered In Ascalon. The Palestine Exploration fund Is a society founded In London In 1865 for the accurate and systematic Investigation of the archaeology, topography, geology and phystcul geography, natural history, manners and customs of the Hofy Land for Biblical Illustration. A preliminary expedition was made by Captain Wilson In the winter of 1865-6. S|nce then no less than eight expeditions for varying purposes have been sent out. Since 1869 the society has Issued u quarterly statement and has published several works and maps. It maintains a museum at ^ts London office. Ascalon Is a desolation In the literal meaning of the word and has been a desolation for many a year. Vegetation is scanty. The once splendid harbor has been filled up. The great walls and towers that surmounted the ridge that surrounds the city He In crumbled ruins. The confusion Is extraordinary: the walls and towers appear to have been blown asunder by powder. Yet once the city must have been a vision of beauty. Here and there broken columns of marble and granite tell of the glories of the past. Probably Ascalon once looked something like Jaffa, making allowance for the modernizing of that ancient city. Ascalon ties on the shore of the Mediterranean, in Judea. 36 miles southwest of Jerusalem. It was a fortifl4fn city in ancient times. How old It Is, nobody knows. It passed from the Egyptians to the Canaanltes about 1500 B. C.; in those days the Egyptians were the overlords of Patestine, which was then called Canaan. Between 1300 and 1100 B. C. Philistines and Hebrews struggled for possession of Cardan. The Hebrews finally gained control and the Canaanltes were submerged. In 1050 B. C. the divided Hebrew Iribes were united into a kingdom under Saul. David, his successor, completed the establishment of Israelite supremacy In Palestine. Under David and Solomon, for the first and only time In history, Palestine was the home of a united people under one central government. Then followed its * division into Israel and .Tudah. Then followed conquest by the Assyrians and by the Babylonians and by the Persians and by the Egyptians and by the Romans. In 70 A. D. the struggle against Borne was ended by the capture and ruin of Jerusalem. In 132-185 A, D. was the with his wife, which ended only when he had her put to death. Having started his reign In this fashion he continued In his career of crime and lust, not hesltattn : even to,strangle his -own sons. Il> Uglous enemies he generally preferred to have burned nlivo.

Emperor Hadrian, in rebuilding Jerusalem, changed Its name to Aelia Capitolina and decreed that no Jew should dwell In It. Never since that day has Jerusalem been a Jewish city or" Palestine, a Jewish land. Asealon's history was naturally troublous In times like these. In 1480 B. C, say the Tel-el-Amarna tablets, the native chlels *nd Dagon-worshipers who ruled the city were paying tribute to the Pharaoh of Egypt. The place was captured successively by the great Rnmeses II., and by King As* surbanipul of Assyria. It later became one of the five towns1 of the Philistine confederacy. "Tell it not In Gath. publish It not in the streets of Ashkelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice" Is written In II Samuel 1:20. It came M Night Morning Into the hands of the tribe of Judah,. but It remained an enemy of the Hebrews to the last. Ascalon long belonged to the Romans. In the Seventh century It came Into possession of the Saracetis. In 1099 was fought the great battle on the plains of Ascalon In which the Crusaders under Godfrey de Bouillon were victorious. The city was taken and retaken during the wars of the Crusaders. The end of Ascalon came In 1270, when it was destroyed by the Sultan Blbars. It was then that Jts harbor was filled in. It was then that it became a desolation. Herod the Great was the ruler who beautified Ascalon. Herod Is the family name of a group of rulers of Palestine. The family had Its origin In Antlpater, an Idumean (Edomlte), who In the last century before Christ was made by the Romans governor of Edom, Judea, Samaria an*. Galilee. His son was Herod the Great, who'was made king of Judea and reigned from 39 to 4 B. C. It was Herod Antlpas. son of Herod the Great, tetrarch of Galilee, who beheaded John the Baptist and to whom Jesus was sent by Pilate. The Herods were Jews only in the sense that the Edomltes were conquered and compelled to embrace Judaism about 130 B. C. Herod the Great ruled the Jews with an iron hand, ruthlessly murdering, all whom he considered enemies. Including even the brother of his wife Mariamne. When he left h!s court on a dangerous mission to Rome he left word that in the event of his death, Mariamne should be killed also. This jealous decree started a quarrel the innocents In the year of Christ's birth. Emperor Augustus, his friend, said of him: "It Is better to be Herod's pig than his son." He had ten wives In all. and several of these at one time. Herod the Great had a passion for building. During the first decade of his reign he wus too busy establishing himself to Indulge his passion. Then he rehabilitated many cities. At Jerusalem, Jericho and Caesaiea. he erected theuters, amphitheaters and hippodromes. He rebuilt the temple in Jerusalem. He even restored and beautified cities in Syria, Asia Minor and Greece. Herod, having been born at Ascalon, devoted much time and money to Its improvement. He beautified the city with "baths and costly fountains, as also cloisters around a court, that were admirable both for their workmanship and largeness,1* according to Josephus. One nf the finds at Ascalon Is a gigantic statue of Herod the Great. Another is the Court of Herod and Its surrounding cloisters, mentioned by Josephus. A third Is a temple with massive marble columns, which may date back to the days when AsPalon. according to Herodotus, was famous for the worship of Astarte <<Astoreth). the goddess of fertility and frultfulness, mentioned In I Samuel 81;10—"and they put his armor in the house of Astoreth. . . ." This was the armor of Sntil, first klnsr of Israel. In this connection there has been discovered n bas-relief representing the goddess with two attendants. Also a statue of Venus has been uncovered. . Ascalon was the seat of worship of Astarte, mmoorree or less Identified with the Assyrian Ishtar, the Phoenician Astoreth, the Greek Aphrodite and the Roman Venus. She Is often represented us half woman and half flsh, a sort of divine merranld. A deep layer of broken pottery has been dug up here, which probably marks the remains of vessels broken as part of the religious rites In her honor. But so far no trace has been found of the lake into which she plunged, according to one story, being ashamed of her misdeeds, and was completely transformed Into a flsh. The most famous legend concerning her tells of her descent tnto the underworld, In search of the Healing waters which are to restore to_ life her bridegroom Tammuc, the young and beautiful sun god. slain by the cruel' hand of Winter. - and flour enough to roll.

Unjted States did not suggest in advance that It might have something concrete to propose in the way of limitation of armaments. The suggestion was, apparently, that the State, War and Navy departments had been asleep. . It seems that these, writers should have. known that sanity of thought suggested that the United States, having called the conference, must of necessity, in order to make it a success, have something to propose at the outset in the way of reduction of armaments. No Cause for Resentment There were British subjects in Washington who were not connected with the conference In an official capacity who felt some resentment that the American secretary of state should propose, such a plan, without so much as a courteous preparation of the minds of the British and the Japanese delegates to receive i t It is likely now that most of these visiting foreigners who ' were* in an early mood of resentment have had another thought on the subject. It is generally believed here that the British and the Japanese delegates knew that something concrete was coming from Secretary Hughes, and while they did not know its exact nature, they were not dynamited out of their seats by surprise when the "explosive" proposal came. Something over a month ago the ^British prepared a navy reduction plan of their own. It was not in tended, of course, for presents the conference because the United States being the inviting nation, the British looked to us to take the initiative. But the plan was ready as a basis for comparison with any plan which was offered. This proves that the British knew something of the kind was coming and were ready to meet- it.

There seems to be no such idea as going out of fashion included In their scheme of existence. But the shorter furs are used to trim all manner of materials. There is a particularly Interesting coat of purple homespun trimmed with lavish collars and cuffs of moleskin, which is one pair, so o^eolalks4 ano^farji altvef^^«)ato the combination is seen over and wey under certain circamstances, but when one views the changes in fashion la > this department of women's attire, the possibilities of variety become perfectly astounding. This year, writes a fashion authority in the New York Times, the gorgeoasness - of furs and fa* trimmings and fur linings appear to know no limitation, and it would seem as though the American woman had decided to be as luxurious and comfortably coated as aha could possibly manage to be, ;0f course, sgtl; this has to be Judged by What the shops are showing and by what the women are buying. But at the salons of the leading furriers there Is nothing to Indicate the least falling off of fur buying or a tendency to wear handsome, not to mention costly, furs 4. furrier who in the course of his business had become used to the costliness of words as well as to the value of the products which he was selling, safd: "Now here is a cheap mink wrap. This is something that we are selling in quantities and which the American women are showing their preference for." "And what is the retail price of that?" said I, hopefully. It looked so much the sort of thing that would complete my dream of life. He scratched his head and pondered for a brief moment "That," he said, "would retail for only about $3,Q00." So, there is the standard, If you are thinking about furs, though there are other prices lower on the scale as well as those which soar and soar until they sound like the figure* in a war loan. Fifty thousand dollars paid for an evening wrap of fur has been known to happen, and not as a single occurrence either, for it has been repeated often. • Caracul Is Popular, a standard in fashionable furs is nothing with more claim to tge than caracul. In almost all of [he known ways in which fur is ever usedejthls variety makes its appearance, and as far as its youthfulness and becomingness are concerned it has everything in its favor. Then there is another quality about caracul \to be whispered among these who still acknowledge some allegiance to the ways wrap of this general character.

Of course he cannot say, nor can anybody say, today that the plan will be entirely acceptable to Japan, but a Japanese authority has told me that there Is no question at all that ultimately Japan will meet the United States In its naval reduction proposition, and perhaps even may be willing to go It one better. France's .View Interesting. Today It seems that the French opinion of the proposed navy scrapping program Is the most interesting, because the French look at sea power matters from a point aloof. X think I may safely say that what follows Is substantially the French view: "The peoples of the world will reupond from their hearts to the-preposal for an actual beginning of limitation of armaments. They once waited for America to declare herself, and later powerfully to act in war. They know America's achievement after she once had made the war proposal. They know that her achievement in peace will 1>e Just as great now that she has made known her plan to blaze a trail which will lead to the goal which the masses seek. 'The words used by Secretary Hughes meant action. When once three great nations unselfishly strip themselves of much of their armor the lesson must reach even the peoples of those lands whose leaders still may be aggressively Inclined. They also will so strip themselves. There is no nation that does not look today, as during the years of war, to America for moral leadership. "America has struck bodly. She will win; and the world will win with her. The very force and disinterestedness of her naval proposal must bring eonsent The rest will follow." ia" way 16¾ ^ p ^ ^ fe:"' Never say "Aspirin" without saying "Bayer** WARNING!

All In Tones of Gray. All sorts of little baby lambs have cropped up to take their places In the dressing of society. And these are all in tones of gray. Sometimes the hair is very curly and sometimes almost straight, while again it Ts of that pressed variety so well demonstrate/! by the American broadtail In all of its expressions. In other words, If you see some fur trimming or a coat of something that looks like fur, then be certain that It is a manner of woolly lamb which has been pressed Into the service of fashion. The pleasantest suits that are lamb trimmed are those with a distinctly Russian flavor. You see, the whole Idea-sprang fromthe-Krimmer-insrHruction, and that Is the fur of the Russian coats and things in their original state. And the sprlghtliest parts of these costumes are the high Russian turbans, made entirely of fur and to match the trimmings of the bloused suits or coats. At a. smart restaurant there was seen a coat fitted to the waist with tight sleeves and high collars and wide cuffs of this gray lamb. It had a flaring skirt that reached the bottom of the dress, where the band of fur was repeated all the way round the circular width of the end of the skirt. There was a high and un- *trimraed turban worn with It, and the effect of the whole thing was something to be gloried in because of its complete originality. Of course, baby lamb still holds good as the smartest and by all odds the most expensive of all the lambs. For one of the most alluring parts of these newer lamb skins is the fact that they do not run into terrifying figures when their prices hang in the balance. Monkey Fur Prominent For trimming and for a few coati monkey fur is among the most prominent of the animal skins used In the making of the mode. It has a charming way of falling so loosely and carelessly that constitutes Itself a really Important asset to the wardrobe of the well-dressed woman. A collar of monkey fur is a matter of delight be It large or small. And fringes of monkey fur continue to take their places on many of the season's models. A coat of black broadcloth had a simple tight, choker collar of monkey fur that spread away onder the ears in a most becoming manner. Its wearer happened to have the softest and curliest of white hair, and she had had the good sense to top that with a rose, sad velvet hat that drooped a trifle at trie sides and framed her face, with the monkey fur balance, quite artistically. There is a fur that they call "real monkey fur** which la far heavier and thicker than that which Is ordinarily recognised as monkey. It is, as might be Imagined from the name; among the more highbrow prices; bnt for that reason, ss things go, It la the more desirable. There is no record that it is the lesson. * J.-...-,;:? ^-.'.-t - i.--. -.f.-. "I will" is the motto of Chicago. "I can" is the motto of the fruit preserver.

"I think he might amuse me—" "We have always our dear Henry to consider," answered Peterson. "Apparently the girl appeals \o him. Tm afraid* Irma, he'll nave to go . . . and at once. . . ." The speaker was tapping his left knee softly with his hand; save for that slight movement he sat as If nothing had happened. And yet ten minutes before a carefully planned coup had failed at the.instant of success. Even his most fearless accomplices had been known to confess that Peterson's Inhuman calmness sent cold shivers down their backs. In CHAPTER Ml. Which Things Happen Moon Street. ONE In Half Hugo Drummond folded up the piece of paper he was studying and rose to his feet as the doctor came into the room. He then pushed a silver box of cigarettes across the table and waited. "Your friend," said the doctor, "is in a very peculiar condition, Captain Drummond—very peculiar. Can you enlighten me at all as to what he has been doing during the last few days?" Drummond shook his bead. "Haven't an earthly, doctor." "There is, for instance, that very unpleasant wound in his thumb," pursued the other. "The top joint is crushed to a pulp." "I noticed that last night," answered Hugh noncommlttally. "Looks as if It The man smiled: obviously a gentleman, thought the practitioner, with Us hand on the door of his car. "It's about a great pal of mine, Captain Drummond, who lives in here," went on the other. "I hope you won't think It unprofessional, but I thought I'd ask you privately, how you find him." The doctor looked surprised. "Captain Drummond, so far as i am aware, has never been better. I—er—cannot say the same of his friend." He stepped into his car. "Why not go up and see for yourself?" The car rolled smoothly into Piccadilly, but the man showed no signs of availing himself of the doctor's suggestion. He turned and walked rapidly away, and a few moments later —in an exclusive West End club— a trunk call was put through to Godalmlng—a call which caused the recipient to nod his head in satisfaction and order the Rolls-Royce. Meanwhile, unconscious of this sudden solicitude for his health, Hugh Drummond was once more occupied with the piece of paper he had been studying on the doctor's entrance. Beyond establishing the fact that the man in the peculiar condition was Hiram C* Potts, the American multimillionaire, . he could make nothing out of it. . _ . "If only Id managed to get the whole of it," he muttered to himself for the twentieth time. "That dam' fellah Peterson was too quick." The scrap he had torn off was typewritten, save for the American's scrawled signature, and Hugh knew the words by heart plete paralysis ade of Britain "* months I de the holder of of five million do desire and earl necklace and the are at present chess of Lam-p TWO. At twelve o'clock precisely the bell rang, announcing a visitor, and Drummond looked up, as his servant came into the room. "Tea. James," he remarked, "I thitk we are at home. I want you to remain within call, and under no circumstances let our sick visitor out of >our sight for more than a minute. In fact, I think you'd better sit in his room." James, with a curt "Very good, sir," left the room. Almost at once he returned, and flinging open the door, announced Mr. Peterson. Drummond looked up quickly and rose with a smile. "Good morning," he cried. 'This is a very pleasant surprise, Mr. Peterson." He waved his visitor to a chair. "Hope you've had no more trouble with your car." Mr. Peterson drew off his gloves, smiling amiably. "None at all, tbank you, Captain Drummond. The chauffeur appears to have, mastered the defect." "It was /our eye on him that did it. Wonderful tiling—the human optic, as I said to your friend, Mr. —Mr. Lakington. I hope that he's quite well and taking nourishment." "Soft food only," said the .other genially. "Mr. Lakington had a most unpleasant accident last night—most unpleasant" \ Hugh's face expressed his sympathy. "How very unfortunate!" he murmujed. "I trust nothing serious." "I fear his lower jaw was fractured in two places." Peterson helped himself to a cigarette from the box beside him. "The man who hit him must have been a boxer." "Mixed up in a brawl, was he?" said Drummond, shaking his head. "I should never have thought, from whfct little I've teen of Mr. Lakington, that he went in for painting the town red. I'd have put him down as a most pelllhg, so unruffled. I, feel sure— when you have finally disabused youi mind of this absurd hallucination— that we-shall become real friends. "Tell me, why did you allow this scoundrel to treat you in such aa offhand manner?" "Unfortunately a bullet intended for him just missed," answered Peter son casually. "A pity—because there would have been no trace of him by now." , "Might be awkwaiti *or you," mur mured Hugh. "Such methods, Mr. Peterson, are illegal, you know. May I offer you a drink?" Peterson declined courteously. "Tbank you—not at this hour." Then he rose. "I take It then, that you will not return me my property here and now.' "Still the same delusion, I s e e r re marked Hugh with a smile. "Still the same delusion." repeated Peterson. "I shall be realty to re oelve both the paper and th* man up ters." • Drummond grinned. "The humorous thing Is that I haven't an idea -who the bird is—except that—" He paused, with bis eyes fixed on the man's left thumb. The top joint was crushed into a red, shapeless pulp, end suddenly the meaning of the instrument Lakington . had produced from his pocket became clear. Also the reason of that dreadful cry at dinner. , *By God!" whispered Drummond half to himself, while, his jawg set like a steel vise. "A thumb (tasew. The devils . . . the ewlne . . ." "Oh 1 quick, quick," the girl urged In an agony. "They may be here at •ny moment."

"In fact If it's any help to you in your diagnosis that wound was caused by the application of an unpleasant medieval Instrument known as a thumbscrew." The worthy, doctor looked at him' in amazement "A thumbscrew! Tou must be joking, Captain Drummond." "Very far from It," answered Hugh briefly. "If you went to know, it was touch and go whether the other thumb didn't share the same fate." He blew out a cloud of smoke and smiled Inwardly as he noticed the look of scandalized horror on his companion's face, "It isn't his thumb that concerns me," he continued; "it's his general condition. What's the matter with him?" The doctor pursed hlsj_ lips and looked wise, while Drummond wondered that no one had ever passed a law allowing men of his type to be murdered on sight. "His heart seems sound," he answered after a weighty pause, "and I found nothing wrong with him constitutionally. In fact I may say, Captain Drummond, he Js In every respect a most healthy man. Except —er—except for this peculiar condition." Drummond exploded. "Damnation take It man, what on earth do you suppose I asked you to come round for? It's of no Interest to me to hear that his liver is working properly." Then he controlled himself. "I beg your pardon, doctor; 1 had rather a trying evening last night Can you give me any Idea as to what has caused this , peculiar condition?" • His companion accepted the apology with an acid bow. "Some form of drug," he answered. Drummond heaved a sigh of relief. MNow we're getting on," he cried. "Have you any Idea what drug?" "It is, at the moment, hard to say," returned the other. "In a day or two, perhaps, I might be able to—er—arrive at some conclusion . . ." "Which, at present, you have not. Right; now we know where we are. As you don't know what the drug is, presumably you don't know either how long it will take for the effect to wear off." "That or Is, within limits, correct," conceded the doctor. "What about dietr "Oh!, light . . . Not too much meat « . . . No alcohol . . ."

"Indeed, sir," murmured his servant. "The gentleman Is asking for you, sir." Mrs. Demy's voice from the door made them look round. Hugh walked Quickly along the passage to the room where the millionaire lay in bed. "How are you feeling?" said Drum' mond cheerfully. The man stared at him uncomprehendlngly, and shook his head. "Do you remember last night?" Hugh continued, speaking very slowly and distinctly. Then a sudden idea struck him and he pulled the scrap of paper out of ~hts~Cfise." "Do you re member signing that?" For a while the man looked at It; then with a sudden cry of fear he, shrank away. "No, no," he muttered, not again." Hugh hurriedly replaced the paper. "Bad break on my part, old bean; you evidently remember rather too well. It's qufte all right," he continued reassuringly; "No one will hurt you." Then after a pause—"Is your name qiram C. Potts?" The man nodded his head doubtfully and muttered "Hiram Potts" once or twice, as if the words sounded familiar. "Do you remember driving in a motor car last night?" persisted Hugh. But what little flash of remembrance had pierced the drug-clouded brain seemed to have passed; the man«only stared dazedly at the speaker. Drummond tried, him with a few more questions, but It was no use, and after a while he got up and moved toward the door. "Don't you worry, old son," he said with a smile. "We'll have you jump- ' Ing about like a two-year-old in a couple of days." Then he paused; the'man was evidently trying to say something. "What is II you want?" Hugh leant over the bed. "Danger, danger." Faintly the words came, and then, with a sigh, he lay back exhausted. With a grim smile Drummond watched the motionless figure. , "I'm afrtjid," he said half aloud, "that you're rather like your medical attendant Tour only contribution to the sphere of pure knowledge is something I know already." He went out and quietly closed the door. And as he re-entered his sitting- room he found his servant standing motionless behind one of the curtains watching the street below. "There's t man, sir," he remarked without turning around, "watching the house." For t moment Hugh stood still, frowning. Then be gave a short laugh. -The devil there tar he remarked.

"I felt certain that you were a young man of discernment/' he remarked, "and I wouldn't like to keep you from your paper a minute longer than nee* essary.",. v "Not s bit." cried Hugh.

"A mild flutter, Mr. Peterson, every now and then," returned Drummond. "Strictly limited stakes." "If you confine yourself to that you will come to no harm," said Peterson. "It is when the stakes become unlimited that the danger of a crash becomes unlimited too." "That is what my mother always told me," remarked Hugh. "She even went further, dear good woman that she was. 'Never bet except on a certainty, my boy,'-was-ner constant advice, 'and ^hen put your shirt on!' I can hear her saying it now, Mr. Peterson, with the golden ruys of the setting sun lighting up her sweet face." Peterson leant forward in his chair. "Young man," he remarked, "we've got to understand one another.

It has been proved over and 4>ver again that milk has a power beyond all other foods to build strong bodies for boys and girls. Miss Muriel Hopkin^ Nutrition Specialist from the Michigan Agricultural College, will tallc in about thirty of the rural schools on the Value of tuilk. An effort will be made to reach all rural schools where the consumption of milk is below the average/ < In October a questionaire was sent out to 112 rural school*, 75 reporting. Thirty-eight percent of all the children in these 75 schools are not drinking milk, and forty-one percent of those that do are drinking one cup or less, which is not half enough. For a county noted for its dairy interest, this is much higher than it should be. Use milk for strong bones,, teeth, and muscles. Milk gives us protein for building muscles and other body tissue. It also gives us lime, which is. needed for our bo nee und teeth, and yitnmincs which are absolutely essential for child growth. A quart of milk a day for every child is not too much, and each child under sixteen should hav« at least a pint. Plenty of milk gives your children the chance for health they ought to have. Every child has a right to be as healthy as present knowledge can make him. Pvoper feeding is one ot the chief factors in health.

The Federal Bureau of Education include* in Ha rule* to promote health among the Nation's school children, the warning that children should not drink coffee or tea. / The reason is well known* Coffee and tea contain drugs which stimulate and often overexcite the nerves, and so upset health. The harm is by no means confined to children, as any doctor can tell you. If health la valuable to childhood, it is vain- •hie always. If harm to health should be avoided until bodies grow up, is it worth taking a chance with health when bodies have grown up? You can have that delicious and satisfying cereal beverage, Poetum, with any meal, and be sals you, and the children, toa There's charm without harm to Postumi judgments, more thoughtful in our attention, more unselfish, more kind. It is probably true that these seasons of the soul, however fleeting, leave their mark. We are, perhaps, a bit more patriotic than we would be were it- not for the annual observance of Memorial day; a bit more consciously grateful than we would be were It not for the annual observance of u Thanksgiving day; a bit more religious than we would be were it not for the recognition of Lent and the observance of Easter day. And one would like to believe that we are a bit more kind than we would be were It not for the observance of Christmas. The' very -approach of Christmas has certain noticeable psychological effects. In 1914 it resulted in a temporary cessation of hostilities.

But in the case of many of us how faint that mark, and How liable it is to disappear. If only the kindly dispositions born at Christmas time could be perpetuated, how permanently different the world would become! Most of us become faint of heart when we think of rebuilding the life of the world. To build a world without any extremes of wealth and poverty in it, how difficult To build a world without any domestic tragedy ln it, how difficult. To build a world without any industrial friction or in* ternational strife in it, how difficult Many people are ready to Bay that It is quite impossible. Perhaps it is. Tet It would not be if only men and worn* en would keep on cultivating the dispositions that are born at Christmas time. What is needed for the rebuilding -^ctTurymte^y^taarTy^gretreqr new world organization is needed. A world that has been organized for war must be organized for peace. For the rebuilding of" the world better Instruments are needed. But what is supremely needed is a better spirit! If only you and I and all our neighbors would persistently cultivate the Christmas spirit, our children's children would live in a far better world. For then it would be only a question of time until we should discover the instruments needed for the fashioning of a fairer civilization, and we would be willing to use these instruments as soon as they could be developed. What a pity, then, if Christmas this year should come and go and leave none of us permanently different. We need to perpetuate the Christmas spirit in our homes. It is a solemn moment when two human lives are united for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, In sickness and in health, till death do them part. As Jane Welch Carlyle once said, "If ever one is to pray, if ever onp is to feel grave, if ever one Is to shrink from vain show and bubble, It is just on the occasion when two human beings bind themselves together till death do them part.** There is nothing that more nearly resembles the heaven of our dreams than does a happy home. Is there any» thing that so surely suggests the hell of our secret dread as does an unhappy home? What is needed to build a home? Money is needed, but how much more than money! Money can "" build a house—a wonderful and wonderfully furnished house. Only love can build a home. We need to perpetuate the Christmas spirit in Industry. For generations, now, the motive of profit has been the motive appealed to both in the case of men who had money to invest, and In the case of men who had strength or skill to in* vest, In the industries of the world. This motive of profit has been given a long trial. And it has failed—tragically failed Its fruitage is a world catastrophe, and, at this present moment world-wide unrest * Why not try the experiment of oppealing to a different.motive?

WThat If every man who learns a trade should say to himself: As a carpenter, or bricklayer, or type-setter, or molder, my primary object Is, to render service. I am entitled to a Just proportion of the product of my labor, and I hope to get it. But my first concern shall be to serve my community. Do you think that men are incapable of responding to any such motive as that? How, then, do you account' for the martyrdom of history? How do you account for the men who have given their lives to the pursuit of truth? Or for the women who have given their lives to the dissemination of knowledge? How do you account for the world's scientists and for its school teachers? And the men who made a rendezvous with death at Belleau wood and the Argonne forest— bow doj'oiLjicc^uftt-for them? There is a divinity in human hearts to which heroic unselfishness makes powerful appeal. Why not try the experiment of appealing to the nobler side of human nature? .The motive of profit has tragically failed. Why not appeal to the motive of service? We need to perpetuate the spirit of Christmas in international relationships. The nations of Christendom have been motived far more by Nietzsche's will to power than by Jesus' will to serve. Their conception Of greatness has been a pagan, not a Christian conception. The great nation has been thought of as a nation able to lord it over other nations, not as a nation eager to serve other nations. The proud symbols of the Wesjtsfen world have been swords and scepters, not basins and towels. But "Lo, all our pomp of yesterday Is one with Nineveh and Tyre!" Surely the meaning of this present hour is clear: Nations must do unto others as they would have other nations do unto them. Nations must enter into the world's life not merely to get something, but to give something, and, in some international association, even to risk something in the interest of wtorid justice and world peace. For the first time in history the nations of the world are looking consciously into the eyes of Jesus, and know It to be true that He alone has the secret of life.

Co-operation A d v o c a t e d . "In the main, the remedy lies in distribution and marketing. Every proper encouragement should be given to the cooperative marketing programs. These have proven very helpful to the co-operating communities in Europe. In Russia the co-operative community h a s become the recognised bulwark ot law and order, and saved individualism from engulfment in social paralysis. Ultimately they will be accredited with the salvation of the Russian state. "There is an appeal for this experiment. Why not try it? N o one challenges the right ot the farmer to a larger share of the consumers' pay for his product, no one disputes that we can not live without the farmer. He is justified in rebelling against the transportation cost. Given a fair return for his labor, he will have less occasion to appeal for financial aid, and given assurance; that his labors shall not be In vain, we reassure all the people of a production sufficient to meet our national requirement and guard against disaster."

A m e r i c a n V a l u a t i o n , W h e n discussing the proposed tariff leftelatien the President said concerning a snueh debated feature: T h e r e is a manifest difference ef opinion about the American valuation. Many a a C e a s h a v e adopted delivery valuation a s the basis for collecting duties; that is, t h e y t a k e the cost of the Imports delivered a t the port ef entry a s the basis for levying duty. It is no radical departure. s i v i e w ef the varying conditions and the disordered state of money values, to provide for American- valuation, but there cannot be ignored the danger ef such a valuation brought t o the level of our o w n production costs, making our tariffs prohibitive. , _^ It might do s o la many Instances where imports ought t o be encouraged. I believe congress ought wsll to consider the desirability ef the only proinstng a l - ternative, namely, a provision authorising proclaimed American valuation, u n - der prescribed conditions, on any g i v e n list of articles imported. In this proposed flexibility, authorising t&creasee t o m e e t conditions so likely t o change, there also should be provision for decreases.

The representatives of the cuwroision have been here at different times and have made a careful survey of the plant and its ramifications and last week fixed the price at $12,500, which seems to be pretty generally satisfactory and the probabilities are that the proposition of its sale .to the Edison Co. will be submitted to the voters of the village fpr their acceptance or rejection at some time in the near future.—Review.

A well arranged program was carried out. Plans were also made for a membership drive. At this meeting about forty people signed up as members of the club. * Monday night someone entered the meat market of Leach and Downer and secured a small amount of pennies that had been left in the cash box. Entrance was gained by breaking window glass in the stairway entrance to the market and was evidently the work of a small sized person. This is the second time the market has been entered since it was opened. The common council at their meet* ing Monday evening decided to change the time next Sunday from Central to Eastern Standard time. This .action was taken as a result of the mail vote that was cast by a majority of voters of this place. The vote was as follows: for Eastern time, 200; Central time, 28; to have the time remain six months of the year on Central time for the winter, and Eastern time for the summer, 27. —Standard.

From the Petoskey Kvening News There arc two ways .by which taxes for'rural school maintenance eiui In kept at the present level or at least prevented from mounting much higher. The one is for the community through their representatives, the school board, to assume the feeling that our schools in the country are of a high standard already and that any further increase in expenditure will be wasteful. This attitude is by no means the general rule but in many communities it is only too true. Nothing adds more to the obstruction of the onward march of education than for such a feeling to become popular. It is now almost universally admitted that the education of the mind is a growth and that a man's education ceases when lie becomes unwilling to give consideration to new ideas.

We must admit, however, that these requirements add to the expense as well. Th second method and lojncl one for schools in outlying districts to t'ol- j low, is to consolidate wtib a village <>r city school if within reasonable div tance, and if not, then with adjacent districts. The same milk tester can be used to demonstrate before fifty as well as five; the same library hook cun as well spend most of its time in the hands of-the "pupils iTs~on the' shelf; and a teacher will be enabled to accomplish vastly more teaching thirty pupils in one or two grades than the same number in eight. The federal government and the state are willing to help pay the expense of maintenance when the consolidation has been completed.

Qay bungalow Caps One of the easiest ways for dressing up the house at holiday time Is to make lamp, candle and electric light shades or lanterns of crepe or tissue paper and tinsel. To make the small lantern pictured two rings of cardboard are covered with plain black or gold paper pasted over them. A length of light green tissue paper is folded along the center, slashed into narrow strips and pasted inside the rings. Under this a length of rose-colored crape paper narrower than the green Is poited; this causes the strips of green paper to spread and stand out 8ilver tinsel hangs from the wire handle at each side.

The victims of Harper's fresh out? break of vengeance toward the admin* istration of the prison are lying in a local hospital in a serious condition. Catlin was wounded nine times by the convict's knife. The deputy was cut and beaten badly. Young Menhennit was stabbed through the lung. All have been placed under the care of the best physicians in this city. In solitary confinement, awaiting flogging, that has been ordered by Charles Blaney, chairman of the prison commission, are Harper, Jasper Perry, lifer, and Charles Roberts, a 20-year man, both of Detroit, who assisted Harper. So surprised was the warden at the attack that his efforts to counter the criminal's passes with the knife were futile. Catlin went down. Prisoners stampeded, while the more loyal ones came to the rescue of the endangered officials. Harper directed his attack at the warden, against whom he has harbored a dislike since he was denied a transfer to Jackson Prison after his sensational escape from the institution here recently. The other prisoners leaped at Menhennit and his son. Rioting continued until Charles Muck, a guard on the outer wall, was summoned by Sam Foard, a lifer.

CHAPTER III—Continued. There was something to Incredibly menacing in the soft, quiet voice that Drummond looked at the speaker fascinated. He had a sudden feeling that he must be dreaming—that In a moment or two he would wake up and find that they had really been talking about the weather the whole time. Then the cynical gleam of triumph in Peterson's eyes acted on him like a cold douche. "Your candor Is as refreshing," he Mtniallg "aa vmir sltrn^eg. "And la order to get b i n there, we most get rid of the watcher without How can we get rid of the bird—how can we, James, I aek yea? Why, by giving htm nothing further to watch for.

Ask him to come in and see me for a moment. Say, I'm thinking and daren't move." • Jamea rose obediently, and Drummond heard him cross over the passage to the other suite of rooms that lay on the same floor. Then he heard the murmur of voices, and shortly afterward his servant returned. "He la in his bath, sir, but he'll come over as soon as he's finished." He delivered the message and stood waiting. "Anything more, s i r r "Yea, James. I feel certain that there's a lot But just to carry on with, I'll have another .glass of beer." As the door closed, Drummond rose and started to pace up and down the room. The plan he had in his mind was simple, but he was a man who believed in simplicity. "Peterson will not come himself— nor will our one and only Henry.. Potts has not been long in the country, which la all to the good. And if it fails—we shan't be any worse off than we are now. Luck—that's all; and the more you tempt her, the kinder she is." He was still talking gently to himself when Peter Darrell atroUed into the room. "Can this thing be true, old boy," remarked the newcomer. "I hear you're in the throes of a brain-storm." "I am, Peter. I want you to help me.M "All that I have, dear old flick, is yours for the asking. What can I do?" "Well, first of all, I want you to come along and s e e the household pet."

"Four years ago you couldn't have got one word of It right" He dismissed Denny, and sat down at hie desk. First he took the halftorn sheet out, of his pocket, and putting It in an envelope, sealed <H Harmfully. Then he placed it in another envelope, with a covering letter to his bank, requesting them to keep the inclosure Intact Then he took a sheet of notepaper, and with much deliberation proceeded to pen a document which afforded him considerable amusement judging by the grin which appeared from time to time on his face. This effusion he also enclosed in a sealed envelope, which he again addressed to his bank. Finally, he stamped the first but not the second—and placed them both in bis pocket. With the departure of the Dennys for Paddlngton, which coincided most aptly with the return of Peter Darrell, a period of activity commenced in Half Moon street But being interior activity, Interfering in no way with the placid warmth of the street outside, the gentleman without, whom a keen observer might have thought strangely interested in the beauties of that well-known thoroughfare—seeing thai he had been there for three hours —remained serenely unconscious of it. His pal had followed the Dennys to Paddlngton. Drummond had net come out—and the watcher who watched without was beginning to get bored. About 4:30 he sat up and took notice as some one left the house; but it was only the superbly dressed young man whom he had discovered already was merely a clothes-peg calling himself Darrell The sun was getting low and /the shadows were lengthening when a drove up to the door. Immedia the watcher drew closer, only to stop doctor said no alcohol and very little meat" His voice died away, and he rose slowly to his feet In the open door four men were standing, each with a peculiar-shaped revolver in his hand. "What the devil," cried Drummond furiously, "la the meaning of this?" "Cut it out." cried the leader contemptuously. ' "These guns are silent If you utter—you die. Do you get me?" The veins stood out on Drummond's forehead, and he controlled himself with an Immense effort "Are you aware that this man is a guest of mine, and sick?" he said, his voice shaking with rage. "You don't say,** remarked the leader, and one of, the others laughed. "Rip the bed-clothes off, boys, and gag the young cock-sparrow." Before he could resist, a gag was thrust in Drummond's mouth and his hands were tied behind his back. Then, helpless and impotent he watched three of them lift up the man from the bed, and putting a gag in his mouth also, carry him out of the room. "Move," said the fourth to Hugh. "Ton Join the picnic." A large car drove up as they reached the street and in less time than It takes to tell, the two helpless men were pushed 1&, followed by the leader; the door was shut and the car drove off. "Don't forget" he aaid to Drummond suavely, "this gun is silent You had better be the same." At one o'clock the car swung up to The Elms. For the last/Ten minutes Hugh had been watching the invalid ID the corner, who was m efforts to loosen his ga were rolling horribly, an om side to side in bis _ bandages round his hands held firm and at last he gave it up.

"Take that man away," he said abruptly to the servant who came inte the room, •'and put him to bed. I will consider what to do with him In the morning." "Consider be d—d," howled Mul lings, starting forward angrily. "You'll consider a thick ear, Mr. Blooming Know-all. What 1 wants to know—** The words died away in his mouth, and he gazed at Peterson like a bird looks at a snake. There was something so ruthlessly malignant in the stare of the gray-Mue eyes that tho ex-soldier who had viewed going over the top with comparative equanimity as being part of his Job quailed and looked apprehensively at Drummond. "Do what the kind gentleman tells you, Mulllngs," Raid Hugh, "and go to bed." He ut a cigarette, and thoughtfully blew out a cloud of smoke. ^- "Stop this fooling," snarlec?MF*eterson. "Where have you hidden I'otts?" "Tush, tush," murmured Hugh. "You surprise me. I had formed such n charming mental picture of you, Mr. Peterson, as the strong, silent man who never lost his temper, and here you are, disappointing me at the beginning of our acquaintance.** For a moment he thought that Peterson was going to strike'hi.ts. and his own fist clenched undpr the table. "I wouldn't, my friend.** he said quietly, "Indeed I wouldn't. Remnise If you-hlt me, I shall most rrrtnln'y hit you. And It will not improve jou» beauty." Slowly Peterson sank hack it ?.*! chair, and the veins which hart hoen standing out on his fnrohend became normal again. He even smiled: ot.*r the ceaseless tapping of Ids hand or his left knee betrayed his momentary loss of composure. Drummond's fls unclenched, and he stole a look at the girl. She was in her favorite attitude on the sofa, and had not even looked up.

At the other end stood Denny, ostentatiously dusting a book-shelf, and Peterson gfanced at him casually. It was characteristic of the man that no trace of annoyance •howed on his face. He might have been an ordinary visitor taking his leave. And then suddenly from the room outside which Denny was dnsting there came a low moaning and an Incoherent babble. A Quick frown passed over Drummond's face, and Peterson regarded him thoughtfully "An Invalid in the house?" he remarked. "How inconvenient for you !" He laid his hand for a moment on the soldier's arm. "I sadly fear you're going to make a fool of yourself. And -It—wJlL_be_such a_plty.'' He turned toward' the stairs. "Don't bother, please; I can find my own way out.* THREE. Hugh turned back into his own room, and lighting a particularly noisy pipe, eat down in his own special chair. He was under no delusions as to the risks he was running. Underrating his opponent had never been a fault of his, either in the ring or In Prance, and he had no intention of beginning now. The man who could abduct an American millionaire, and drug him till he was little better than a baby, and then use a thumbscrew * » < to enforce his wishes, was not likely to prove over-scrupulous in the future. After a while he began half-unconeclously to talk aloud to himself. "Two alternatives, old buck,** he remarked, stabbing the air with hit pipe. " O n e - give the Potts bird up at Berners street; two—do not Number one— out of court s t once. Preposterousabsurd. Therefore—number two holds the Sold." He rang the bell. "Jsmes," he said, as the door opened, "take a piece of paper and a pencil—if there's one with a point— t a d s i t down at the table, rm going to thing, and Td hate to miss out. anything." • His servant complied, and for a while silence reigned.

What's the matter with him?" he cried. "I would give a good deal to know," said Hugh grimly. Then he smiled reassuringly at the motionless man, and led the way back to the sittingroom. "Sit down, Peter," he said. "Get outside that beer and listen to me carefully." For ten minutes he spoke, while his companion listened In silence. Gone completely was the rather vacuousfaced youth clad in a gorgeous dressing- gown ; in his place there sat a keen-faced man nodding from time to time as a fresh point was made clear. At length Hugh finished. "Will you do It old man?" he asked. "Pf course," returned the other. "But wouldn't It be better. Hugh," be said pleadingly, "to whip up two or three of the boys ard have a real scrap? I don't seem to have anything to do." Drummond shook his head decidedly. "No, Peter, my boy—not this show. We're up against a big thing; and If you like to come with me, I think you'll have all you want In the scrapping line before you're finished. But this time, low cunning is the order." Darrell rose. *Rlght you are, dearie. Tour instructions shall be carried out to the letter. Come and feed your face with me." "Not today," said Hugh.

As soon as Darrell had gone, Drum* mond again rang the bell for his servant T h i s afternoon, James, you and Mrs. Denny will leave here and go to Paddlngton.

"You prisheless ole bean," he heard Darrell say affectionately, "thlsh blinking cabsh my show." The other man hiccoughed assent and leant wearily against the palings. "Right," he remarked, "ole friend of mo youth. It shall be ash you wish." With a tolerant eye he watched them tack up the stairs, singing lustily in chorus. Then the door above closed, and the melody continued to float out through the open window. Ten minutes later he was relieved. It was quite sn unostentatious relief; Another man merely strolled past him. And since there wns nothing to report he merely strolled sway. He could hardly be ezpe^ed to know that up in Peter Darrell's .sitting-room, two perfectly sober youn;; men were contemplating with professional eyes an extremely drunk gentleman tinging in a chair, and that mie of those two sober young men was Peter Darrell. Then further Interior activity took place in Half Moon street and as the darkness felt silence gradually settled on the house. Ten o'clock struck, then eleven—' sad the silence remained unbroken. It was not tin ^fevep-thlrty taat a sudden small sound made Hugh Drummond sit up in his chair, with every nerve alert It c a n e from the direction of the kitchen—and It was the sound he bad been waiting for. , Swiftly he opened his door aad passed along the passage te where the sjetioaless man lay still la hesV "Hiram C.

"Ah 1 my young friend," cried Peterson affably, "I hardly thought you'd give me such an easy run as this." He put hla hand into Drummond's pockets, and pulled out his revolver and a bnudle of letters. T o your bank," be murmured. "On! surely, surely not that as well. Not even stamped. Ungag him, Irma—and untie his hands. Sly very dear young friend—you pain me." "I wish to know, Mr. Peterson," said Hugh quietly, "by what right this dastardly outrage has been committed. A friend of mine, sick in bed—removed, abducted in the middle of the night: to say nothing of me." With a gentle laugh Irma offered h4n+-a-cigarette. "Man Dieu '" she remarked, "but you are most gloriously ugly, my Hugh!" Peterson, with a faint smile, opened the envelope in his hand. And, even as he pulled out the contents, he paused suddenly and the smile faded from-his face. From the landing upstairs came a heavy crash, followed by a flood of the most appalling language. "What the h—1 do you think you're doing, you fiat-faced son of a Maltese goat? And where the h—1 am I, anyway?" "I must apologize for my friend's bating society," remarked Hugh reuil- "rtlscently. "But I was never much good. I'm too obvious for argument I'm afraid." "You probably realhte from Wfc«< has happened tonight." continued Pe terson. "that I am in earnest." "I Khould be sorry to think so." an swered Hugh. "If that Is the beet you can do, I'd cut it right out and start a tomato farm." The girl gave a little gurgle cf laughter and lit another rlpnrette. "Will you come and do the danger ous part of the work for us, Mn*«leui Hugh?" she asked. r "If you promise to restrain the little fallows, I'll water them with phase re." returned Hugh lightly. Peterson rose and walked over 3* the window, where he stood motionless, staring out into the darUnea* Hugh renlteed that trie situation was "what In military phraseology~nilght h« termed critical. There were In tht house probably hall a dozen men who, like their master, w\re absolutely uu scrupulous.

Besides, he was, I regret to state, quite wonderfully drunk earlier this evening, and Just as he was sleeping it off these desperadoes abducted him." • The next moment the door burst open, and an infuriated object rushed in. Hi* face was wild, and his hand was bandaged, showing a great red stain on the thumb. A "What's this—Jest?" he howled fmfl-1 ously. "And this d—d bandage all covered with red ink?" "Yota must ask my friend hers, MuWmja^said Hugh. "He's got s peculiar sense of humor. Anyway, he's got the bill in his hand." In silence they watched Peterson open the paper and read the contents, while the girl leaned over his shoulder. To Mr. Peterson, Qodslmiag.

They found Petoskey a straggling Indian village, with positively no accommodations for visitors, but as time went on and »ieople continued to go there each year for hay fever, it gradually grew into a flourishing up-to-date town with several thousand inhabitants.—Cleveland Plain Dealer. ^ LEGAL NOTICES MORTGAGE SALE , r . llefault having been made in the *»ndttJ©na of a certain mortgage . €ltereby the power therein contained to n.V. has become operative made by Alf «*ft Bowhall and Eunice Bowhall, his of Howell, Michigan, to the First & Savings Bank of Howell, Mich- v „,,„„„ ~ - drtteVi April 2. 1920 and recorded [ v*?4i"„V "^haf*'»^V""U There is claimed to be due at the date of this notice the sum of two hundred eight dollars and ninety-one cents (9208.91) and no proceeding at law or equity having been instituted to recover the debt secured by said mortgage on any part thereof, notice is therefore hereby given that on Friday the third day of March, 1922 at one o'clock (central standard time)^ in the afternoon of said day at the west front door of the court house in the City of Howell, Livingston County, twenty-three feet and six inches to the south line of the Ann Arbor railroud right of way? thence southeasterly along said right of way to a point one hundred thirty-two feet east of the east line of National Avenue; thence south forty-nine feet to the south line of lot nineteen; thence west one hundred thirty two feet to the place of beginning.

A* a result be meeta Phyllis Benton, a young woman who answered his ad. She tell* him of strange murders and robberies by a band headed by Carl Beterson and Henry Lakington. She fears her father is involved. Drumroond goes to The Larches, Miss Benton's home, next door to The Sas, Peterson's place. During the ht Drummond leaves The Larches and explores The Elms. R e discovers Lakington and Peter- . sen using a thumbscrew on Potta, Who signs a paper. Drummond rescues Potts and takes him to his own home. He also gets half the paper, torn in the struggle. Peterson visits Drummond, departing with a threat to return and recover Potts and also the torn paper which Potts signed. The band abduct Hugh and a friend he has substituted for Potts and take them to The Elms. Peterson is furious over the mistake. •Si' CHAPTEB IV—Continued. A fixed determination to know what lay In that sinister brain replaced his temporary indecision. Events up to date had mowed go quickly that he had hardly had time to get his bearings; •ran [Bow the last twenty-four hours seemed almost a dream. And as he looked at the broad back and massive kead of the man at the window, and from him to the girl Idly smoking on the sofa, he smiled a little grimly. He had just remembered the thumbscrew _„ erf the preceding evenlne. Assuredly g-«nrnrT88rTy*Ti, -T-MH and switched on the light Then she faced him smiling, and Hugh looked at her steadily. "Tell me, you ugly man," she murmured, "why you are such a fool." Hugh smiled, and as has been said before, Hugh's smile transformed his face. "I must remember that opening," he said. "It establishes a basis of intimacy at once, doesn't It?" She swayed a little toward him, and then, before he realized her intention, she put a hand on his shoulder. "Don't you understand," she whispered fiercely, "that they'll kill you?" She peered past him half fearfully, and then turned to him again. "Go, you Idiot, go—while there's time. Get out of It—go abroad; do anything— but don't fool round here." "It seems a cheerful household," remarked Hugh with a smile. "May. I ask why you're all so concerned about me? Your estimable father gave me the same advice yesterday morning." "Don't ask why," she answered feverishly, "because I can't tell you. Only you must believe that what I say Is the truth—you must. It's just possible that if you go now and tell them where you've hidden the American you'll be all right But If you don't—" Her hand dropped to her side suddenly, "Breakfast will be at nine* ray Hugh: until then, an revoir." He turned as she left the room, a little puzzled by her change of tone. Standing at the top of the stairs was Peterson, watching them both in silence. . • • TWO. In the days when Drammend bad been a platoon commander he had done many dangerous things. The ordinary Joys of the infantry subaltern's life—such as going over the top, and carrying out raids—had not proved fMfflfllffitfnnfnr hl&yiiapnfttltp He.-haftpatrol never found anything. But whatever the report, Hugh Drummond only grlnnned and saw to his men's breakfast Which is why there are in England today quite a number of civilians who acknowledge only two rulers—the King and Hugh Drummond, And they would willingly die for either. The result on Drummond was not surprising; as nearly as a man may be he was without fear. And when the idea came to him as he sat on the edge of bis bed thoughtfully pulling off his shoes, no question of the possible risk entered into his mind. To explore the house seemed the most natural thing In the world, and with characteristic brevity he summed up the situation as it struck him. "They suspect me anyhow: in fact, they know I took Potts. Therefore, even If they catch me passage creeping, I'm no worse off than I am now. And I might find something of interest. Therefore, carry on, brave heart" It wag dark in the passage outside as he opened the door of his room and crept toward the top of the stairs. The collar of his brown lounge coat was turned up, and his stocking feet made no sound on the heavy pile carpet. Like a huge shadow he vanished Into the blackness, feeling his way forward with the uncanny instinct that comes from much practice. Every now and then he paused and listened intently, but the measured ticking of the clock below and the occasional creak of a board alone broke the stillness. To the. left lay the room In which he had spent the evening, and Drummond turned to the right. As he had gone up to bed he had noticed a door screened by a heavy curtain which he thought might be the room Phyllis Benton had spoken of—the room where Henry Laklngton kept his illgotten treasures. He felt his way along the wall, and at length his hand touched the curtain—only to drop It •™^jftwtffAifliiinr>i uj.EKfiimi^VWWmhfVtMWr -Mm ore*** *# it if, avwltt be eery stiff for some days- Another time—don't laugh, tt's dangerey*." Than. like a/ ghost, hi vanished along the passage in the diraetiqh of the tfovei M ' A l n % t > i * bis own room. At eight o'clock the aert morning a burly looking ruffian brought In some hot water aud a cup of tea. Aa he pulled up the blinds the light fell full on hit battered, rugged face, and suddenly Hugh sat up la had and stared at him. "Good Lord 1" be cried, "aren't you Jem Smith?" The man swung round like a flash and glared at the bed. "Wot the 'ell 'a* that got to do wtv you?" he snarled, and then his face changed. "'Why, strike me pink, If it aln'fr young Drummond.** Hugh grinned. "Right In one, Jem. What in the name of fortune are you doing in this .outfit? Given up the game?" , "It give me up, when that cross-eyed son of a gun Young Baxter fought that cross down at 'Oxton. Gawd I if I could j get the swine—just once again— .s'welp me. I'd—" Words failed the ex- ,bruiser; he could only mutter. Hugh smiled. "By the way, has anyone got a stiff neck in the house this morning?" "Stiff neck!" echoed the man. "Strike me pink if that ain't funny— cmim over .:fi**%. She : #du^g*eed, "mayjWeiri^ •'..--jr-sac***^ a how y a certain measure of success, 1 ad* mit it, and I admire you for it 1 apologise/ BOSS fee feavtof ~pteyed the fool with you last night; you're the type of man whom one should kill out* right—pr J«ve alone.", .^,, He set down his coffee cup and carefully snipped the end off a cigar. "You ane also the type of mail who wttl continue on the path he has start ed. You are completely in the, dark; you have no idea whatever what you are up against." He amfied grimly, and turned abruptly on Hugh. "You fool—-you stupid young fool. Do you really Imagine that you. can beat me.$" The soldier rose and stood jn front ,of him. '•*•*! have a few remarks of my own to make," he answered, "and then we might consider the interview dosed. I ask nothing better than that the gloves should be off—though with your filthy methods of fighting, anything you touch will get very dirty. As you say, I am completely in the dark as to your plans; but I have a pretty shrewd Idea what I'm up against. Men who can employ a thumbscrew on a poor defenseless brute seem to me to be several degrees worse than an aboriginal cannibal, and therefore if 1 put you down as one of the lowest types of degraded criminal I shall not be very wide of the mark. There's no good you snarling at me, you swine; it does everybody good to hear some Lome truths—and don't forget It was you who pulled off the gloves." . Drummond lit a cigarette; then his merciless eyes fixed themselves,again on Peterson. "There is only one thing more,"Jis continued. "You have kindly warned^ me of my danger; let me give you a .word of advice In my turn. I'm going to fight you; if I can; I'm going to beat you. Anything that may happen to me is part of the game. But it anything happens to Miss Benton, during the course of operations, then, aa surely as' there is a God above, Peter* son, ^11 get at you somehow and murder you with my own hands." For a few moments there was si* lence, and then with a short ^laugh Drummond turned away. "Shall wa meet again soon.?" He paused at the door and looked back.

A sudden sound outside In the garden made him look up qulcffy. Be aaw the white gleam of a shirt front, and the aext moment a man pushed open the wtndoif and came unsteadily tato the roona. It was Mr. Benton, and tuite obviously he had been seeking consolation In the bottle. "Hare you got him?" he demanded thickly, steadying himself with a hand en Peterson's arm. **I hare not," said Peterson shortly, eyeing the swaying figure In front of htm contemptuously. "For heaven's aake, sit down, man, before you fall down." H* pushed Benton roughly late a chair, and resumed his impassive stare into the darkness.

"I hope your daughter is quite well." *^5r—quite, thank you," muttered the other. 'Tell her, will you, that I propose to call on her before returning to London tomorrow." •With his hands in bis pockets, Peterton was regarding Drummond from the window. "You propose leaving us tomorrow, do you?" he said quietly. Drummond stood up. —"1 ordered my car for ten o^lock," 2i" ae answered.

But Drummond was no fool, and he had realized the vital importance' of fitting himself for these stunts to the best of his ability. Enormous physical strength is a great asset, hut it carries with It certain natural disadvantages. In the first place, its possessor Is frequently clumsy: Hugh had practiced In France till he could move over ground without a single blade of grass rustling. Van Dyck—a Dutch trapper— had first shown him the trick, by which a man goes forward on his elbows like a snake, and is here one moment and gone the next, with no one the wiser. Again, Its possessor is frequently slow: Hugh had practiced In France till he could kill a man with his bare hands in a second. Olaki—a Japanese— had first taught him two or three of the secrets of his trade, and in the intervals of resting behinQ the lines he had perfected them until it was even money whether the Jap or he would win In a practice bout. And there were nights in No Man's Land when his men would hear strange sounds, and knowing that Drummond was abroad on his wanderings, would T e n Ms, Yeu Uflly Man,* She Murmured, -Why Yeu Are Such a Fool.* peer eagerly over the parapet into the deeelate tom-up waste in front But •hey never saw anything, even when the green ghossly flares weat hissing ap late she darkness and the shadows danced fantastically.

Then he leaned forward and once more moved 'the curtain. Instantly it came again, sharper ond angrier than before. Hugh passed a hand over his forehead and found it damp. Germans he knew, and things on two legs, but what was this that hissed so viciously in the darkness? At length he determined to risk It, and drew from his pocket a tiny electric torch. Holding It well away from his body, be switched on the light. In the center of the beam, swaying gracefully to and fro,, was a snake. For a moment he watched it, fascinated as it spat at the light angrily; he saw the flat hood where the vicious head was set on the upright body; then he switched off the torch and retreated rather faster than he had come. "A convivial household," he mut-" tered to himself through lips that were a little dry. "A hooded cobra is an unpleasing pet." Hugh had Just determined to reconnblter the curtained doorway again to see if it was possible to circumvent the snake, when a low chuckle came distinctly to his ears from the landing above. He flushed angrily in the darkness. There was no doubt whatever as to the human origin of that laugh, and Hugh suddenly realized that he was making the most profound fool of himself. To be laughed at by some dirty swine whom be could strangle in half a minute—was Impossible. His fists clenched, and he swore softly under his breath. Then as silently as he bad come down, he commenced to climb the stairs again. He had a hazy idea that he would like to hit something— hard. There were nine stairs In the'first half of the flight, and It was aa he stood on the fifth that he again heard the low chuckle. At the same Instant something whizzed past his head so low that tt almost touched his hair, and there waa a clang on the> wall beside him. Ha ducked Instinctively, and regardless of noise raced up the remaining stairs, on all-fours. His jaw was set like a vise, his eyes were blazing; in fact, Hugh Drummond was seeing red. He paused when he reached the top, crouching in the darkness. Close to him he could feel some one else, and holding his breath, he listened. Then he heard the man move—only the very faintest sound—but it was enough. Without a second's thought he sprang, and his hands closed on human flesh. He laughed gently; then he fought in alienee. —His opponent was strong above the average, hut after a minute he was like a child In Hugh's grasp. He choked once or twice and mattered something; ffien Hugh slipped his right hand gently onto the man's throat Bis fingers moved slowly round, his thumb'adjusted itself lovingly, and the man felt his bead being forced back irresistibly. He gave eee strangled cry,' and then the pisssaia relaxed. . . .

The bloke's sitting up in 'Is bed swearing awful. Can't move 'Is 'ead at all." "And who, might I ask, Is the bloke?" said Drummond. "Why, Peterson, o' course. 'Oo else? Breakfast at nine." The door closed behind him, and Hugh lit a cigarette thoughtfully. Most assuredly he was starting in style: Lakington's Jaw one night Peterson's neck the second, seemed a sufficiently energetic opening to the game for the veriest glutton. Then that cheerful optimism which waa the envy of his friends asserted Itself. ijuTetly.—*very row intiewtf Hugh stepped aut into the warm sunshine and'spoke to Ms chauffeur, -"Take her out into the main road, Jenkins." he said, "and wait for m« outside the entrance to the next house. I shan't be long." Then he strolled thrcugn the gar* den toward the little wlcket«gats that led to The Larches. Phyllis I The thought of her was,einging In his heart to the exclusion of everything else. Just a few minutes with her; Just the touch of her hand#lhe falat smell of the scent she used—and the* back to 'he game. He had almost reached the gate, when, with a sudden crashing in the, undergrowth, Jem Smith blundered out into the path. His naturally raddy face was white, and he stared round fearfully. . "Gnwdl sir," he crlftd, "tnind-O ""Supposln' I'd killed 'em," he~murmured, aghast "Just supposin'. Why, the bally show would have been over, and I'd have 'had to advertise again." Only Peterson was In the diningroom when Hugh came down. He had examined the stairs on his way, but he could see nothing unusual which would account for the thing which had whizzed past his head and clanged sullenly against the wall. Nor was there any sign of the cobra by the curtained door; merely Peterson standing In a sunny vroom behind a bubbling coffeemachine. He turned politely toward* his host, and paused In dismay. "Good heavens, Mr. Peterson, Is your neck hurting you?" "It is," answered Peterson grimly. "A nuisance, having a stiff neck. Makes every one laugh, and one gets no sympathy. Bad thing—laughter. . . . At times, anyway." "Curiosity *is a great deal worse, Captain Drummond. It was touch and go whether X killed you last night" "I think I might say the same," returned Drummond. "Yes and no," said Peterson. "From the moment you left the bottom of the stairs, I bad your life in the palm of my hand. Had I chosen to take it, mjr~young friend, I should not have had this stiff neck." Hugh returned, te his breakfast unconcernedly. . "Granted, laddie, granted. But had I not been of such a kindly and forbearing nature, yon wouldn't have had it either." He looked at Peterson critically. Tin Inclined to think It's a great pity I didn't break your neck while I waa about It" Hugh sighed and drank some coffee. "I see that I shall have to de It some day, and probably Lakington's as well. . By iaa„way^ h>w la ear Henry? I trust his Jaw in net unduly inconveniencing him." Peterson, with his coffee cap la his hand, was staring down the drive. "Tear car is a little early, Captain Drummond," be said at length.

Assuredly a cheerful household, he reflected; Just the spot for a rest-cure. Then he saw a figure on the lawn of the next house which banished everything else from hit mind; and opening the gate, he walked eagerly toward Phyllis Benton.

The President has Introduced nothing new to the public. He spoke during the presidential campaign of an association of nations, but before long he put the subject into the back of his bead and kept it shut up there for some time, because the utterance apparently was not to the liking of certain elements which are a power In the United, States senate and are supposed to be something of a power In a political campaign. The foreigners here do not care-to talk about the presidential utterance of recent date. Perhaps "dare" is a better word to use than "care," for probably they would like to talk about It, but they believe, and In fact seme of them have said, that It would be diplomatically unwise.

"Doesn't it make you discontented to read about movie stars getting $2,- 000 a week?'

Recently some of the criticisms of the plan for partial disarmament have become venomous. The attempt, of course,' is to sow proverbial seeds of dissension in a hitherto fair field of exchange between the foreigners who are here present It seems to be manifest today that not only the delegates who are here from abroad, but the American administration itself, think the assailants of the plan have overplayed their hand and have helped that which they were seeking to harm* The foreign delegates at first were astounded at the nature of some of the assaults on the American proposition for. a partial disarmament. They seemed staggered by the extent of the suddenly sprung opposition. Then they began to ask questions about It, and then they began to reason the thing out for themselves. Today they seem to have arrived at the conclusion that the cause Jn behalf of which they had met had been advanced by the nature of its enemy and the nature of Its assaults. Force of American Emotion. It may seem curious, but the fact probably Is not at all so, that the foreigners represented here have a feel* ing that the American "emotion," which brought about prohibition, Is going to force success for the plan which President Harding, through his secretary of state, has proposed. I have Inclination to meddle In what they, think are purely American affairs. One of them, voicing this feeling, said that foreign official comment was neither wise nor proper until congress and the people of the United States had given approval to anything which had been put forward in the way of suggestion. m ' Foreigners, Entertain Writers. The various delegations of foreigners who are here are giving a series of receptions to the multitude of writers who are assembled In Washington. The receptions are given under the direction or management of the embassies of the countries Interested. These affairs are Interesting because they are made In part vehicles by which to communicate to the correspondents the viewpoint of the government represented by the hosts. There Is some very plain speaking af these affairs and also at the daily or semi-weekly meetings in which some spokesman for each foreign government meets the newspaper correspondents. Some persons have caned these meetings propaganda affairs, and so perhaps in a way they are, (For the week ending December U, 19tt) Hay The hay market situation has weakened during the week because of increased receipts and a light holiday demand.

Here Is a test'for one kind of Intellectuality. From July 1 to January 1 the earth falls about 8,000,000 miles toward the sun to periheUon; then from January 1 to July 1 this weight of heavy earth moves upward from the sun the 8,000,000 mites to the starting point again, This movement toward and from the sun takes place every year. This Is the third century that man has been taught by Sir Isaac Newton's theory to believe that the sun attracts the earth so fast la this fall of SjOOO,- 000 miles from July 1 to January 1 as to cause this greet weight to rush past the sun at perihelion and to rise up from the sun 3.000,000 miles from January 1 to July 1, to the starting point again. Any man who believes this idea has missed the truth, and as long as he believes it he never can be able to understand the simple truth that explains electricity, magnetism and the cause of all changes of weather. The Idea of the sun's attraction pulling the earth fast enough to cause It to go past the sun and move upward from the sun to the original height from which it started Is an Ignorant Idea akin to those ideas of misguided people who tinker with perpetual motion machinery. It is a blight on Intellectuality. The effect of this erroneous idea— whose authorship was scrambled over by Hooke and Newton—which has been exploited over 200 years, has been to retard the progress of all physical sciences, because the true explanation of the cause of the earth's movements is the fundamental principle upon which all physical sciences depend.

The psychologist, or mind doctor, sees love as a disease or affection of the mind. Not a disease In the physically destroying sense, but an obsession or overcrowding of Ideas and emotions in one particular direction. Moat persons think that the "Jilt" Is a heartless flirt As a fact, among many lovers who suddenly put a full stop to their love affairs, there are few of the callous type. As a rule, psyche-analysts say, the wJUtH Is often at a loss to know why be or she has ended without a word of warning the sweet association with another, which should have reached its perfection In marriage. All the psycho-analyst can do Is to explain to these lovers why they acted as they did, and remove from their harassed minds the idea that they are fit only for lunatic asylums. When a person falls In love certain ideas and emotions form in the brain. These emotions all center round the object of attraction. As the love b> tensifles these ideas become 'toassed*' as it were; they grow In strength, very often subduing whole parts of the lover's personality and obliterating even .deeply rooted principles. At certain stages of his passion he is certainly not himself. The sudden reversion which completely wipes out the state of love and causes him to Jilt his sweetheart may come from a variety of causes. What sometimes happens is similar to that which occurs when a seasoned toper suddenly takes to religion, or a man of fixed principles unaccountably - ;C-••,' -m \K3 m , Foul Play.

Attacks Proving Futile, It probably has been the thought of the forces of assault that some of their poison gas shells would drive the foreigners out of their positions, would force confusion and eventually would compel them to retire from the field with the object unachieved for which they came together. Seemingly the result has been in reverse. The various delegates, including the American delegation, apparently have been strongbened In their desire for real achievement by the attempts to weaken their position and to undermine the ideal which bad brought them together. It probably has been rather a happy thing for the good of the cause that the substantial -elements of the American population have urged limitation of armaments Instead*of actual disarmament, thereby differentiating themselves from other elements, luckily weaker ones, which have been urging complete disarmament for America* no matter what the rest of the world might do.

The busincsa part of the town had been partially devastated by ftrect the village streets £|were in darkness and there would have been discouragement If 4kf re were not TOjfectte* prospects for-.the future. : Hut the dawn that always comes after, darkness came to. Pinckney during 1921, and. the village has made \x\or-t Mjreai, tangible progress during the past jyear than ever happened before dur~ jing a twelve months period. J The DetroU Kdison Company com* jpieted its preliminary work here and now the churches, homes, business places and streets are well lighted and Pinckney can offer inducements for ^manufacturing with electric power that never could have been made previous to 1921. ' 1921 has seen the completion of the fire system, so that now the village is am{ky protected by fire apparatus and Storage reservoirs. \ The fire boys haye been rolled out several times add have~alrr,£y saved enough property in and near the village to prove beyond argument to the very few who were opposed, that the expenditure was justified. The fire b^all has.been built and is now occupied by the engine and apparatus. This building fills one gap in West Main Street. • The prospect of a manufacturing plant? operated by Henry Fprd has been strengthened during tine year. *Mr. Ford has bought the mitt site and gutter rjgh.tSi, engineers ha^M^fe^k.

The-Masonic ledge of Pinckney now occupies the new home which is more1 commodious and convenient than the old one which Was burned. They have also two stores which, with the Thomas I R^rad store are now being decorated [^ad are the show buildings of the business section. , Pinckney has made a big stride forward during the past year and only awaits the actual ' operations on the Ford plant to begin to see a boom started here that may place the village far ahead of the dreams of those whose optimism is now only moderate.

There are several things that are new at New Year's beside the New Year. There's a new chance. There's a new responsibility. There's a new bnlance In the Bank of Time. There's a new bank book. So, what will the check stubs show at the end of the year? Rev. John Sherman had a right to make his "reasonable request," if practicing what one preaches gives that right His "three score and ten" were busy years. He was born at Dedham, Essex, England, nnd before he was twenty-one he was an A. B. and A. M. of Trinity college, Cambridge, a minister of the Church of England and a Puritan on his way across the Atlantic to the Massachusetts Bay colony. There was no church for him, since the only three In existence—Boston, Salem and Watertown—had efficient ministers. So he~^ggs~one~of the "orlginal planters" of Wethersfleld, Conn., and a "watcher," 1634-40. Then he was one of the founders of Milford, New Haven plantation. Next he was <t magistrate representing Milford in the New, Haven colony and also charged with the duty of dividing land. Meanwhile he preached wherever opportunity offered. In 1647 he became the minister of the Watertown church. There he preached till his death In 3385.

He found time, however, to publish for many years an almanac, for which he mfade all the astronomical calculations and wrote the text He was also the first fellow and overseer of Harvard university. Incidentally he also found time to marry twice. Cotton Mather in his "Magnalla Christl Americana," says he had 26 children; this is a misstatement hut he did have 16. His epitaph in Latin on the tombstone in East Waltham, Mass* thus sums up his life: - "Sacred to the memory of John Sherman, a man distinguished for piety, character and truth; a profound theologian; as a preacher a veritable Cnr^spstcm; unsurpassed In his knowledge of the liberal arts, particularly mathematics; a faithful pastor of the Church,of Watertown In New Bngtand; an overseer nnd fellow of Harvard coUege. After a life of faithftrt service to Christ In the church tor opwarda of 48 years In the full. nesp e t time- he passed away and rweetved from Christ tho palm of vieficy. ia the se^enty-sscond year of his r Asnmst & A. P. 16»." every good American should endeavor "duly to prize and diligently to Improve time." It 1B a year with a challenge. I| Is a yenr with a promise. Though in folly and in blindness ,And in sorrow still we grope, Yet In man's increasing kindness Lies the world's stupendous hope. And it is a reasonable request to every red-blooded, thinking, patriotic American. §uch a man knows that nobody can stand still; that he has either to progress or fall back. The progressive man accepts responsibilities as the measure of his capabilities. He never shirks them, for he recognizes ID them the price he must pay for advancement. Competition is going to be keen this year. The dollar is going to be hard to get. Men who have been getting twice what they were before and have had lots of money to spend are going to feel the pinch. It looks as it everybody who works for a living will have to work a little harder. It may be that life will seem hard. But what of it? Life has always been hard— perhaps it was meant to be. Anyway, it Is something that b«s got to be lived and mastered. It's the business of men "to greet the unseen with a cheer" and "to advance on chaos and the dark." Of course all of us cannot have a hand in the big things that must be done in meeting the challenge of 1922. But If all of us do the little things we may, 1922 will Indeed be the "Happy New Year" of our greetings. and sober. Medical philosophers are unanimous in declaring Uiut we Americans live too hard and too fust; that our rapid ways are harmful both to the IttUlviduul and to the ruce; Uiut we should slow up. We are, to use tlia homely old phrase, burning the candle at both ends. Men try to succeed In business, to rule in politics, to be- social leaders—ull nt the many liiuo. To crowd dlsblinllur things together has become a nutionul characteristic Our avocations are often as wearing aa our voeutions; we play even harder than we work. Thus to crowd two or more lives Into one Is to borrow of nature. She is a hurd creditor and she always exacts payment. One cannot, of course, Indlct-a whole, people.

The war has done what all wars do. And the leeches on society ore always active at such times. Just now we are facing all sorts of loose living and the public at large apparently feels Uttle concern. Any man or woman can at least help by setting a good example. * • • " • ^ be interesting—and startling—to kuow how many men and women put themselves In an early grave by going the pace that kills. "Of all sounds of all bells, most -olemn and touching Is the peal which rings out the old year. I never hear it without a gathering up of my mind to i concentration of all the Images that -wve been diffused over the past 'welve-month; all I have done or suffered, performed or neglected, in thai regretted time. I begin to know It3 worth as when a person dies. It takea n pprannal color: nor was it a poetical (light in a contemporary poet when lu exclaimed: 'I saw the skirts of the departing year.' "Every first of Januory that we ar. five at, is an imaginary milestone on the turnpike track of human life; at once a resting place for thought nnd mediation,, and a starting place for (resit exertion In the performance of .,ur journey. The man who does not at least propose to himself to be better this year than he was last, must he either very good or very bad Indeed. And only to propose to be better 1« something; If nothing else, It Is an acknowledgment of our need to be so, which is the first step towards amendment Bat, In fact> to propose to onepelf to do well la in some sort to do well, positively; for there is no such thing as a stationary point In human endeavors; he who Is not worse today than he was yesterday.

Dr. Hendrcn was suuunoned and Sir.

A rather superficial and hurried in- \9«tigation made by the Board of Commerce during the pust week indicates that this factory would be a splendid addition to industrial Chelsea.

It seems that the son has a trap line on the farm and recently found a skunk in one of his traps. He didn't know just how to get the little animal, out of the trap without disagree; ble results and so consulted with his f.-ther in the matter; **SJSTW* satd the fanncis "I'll g*'t it out—no trouble at all if you know how," or words to that effect. Now it seems that this p, and w. k. farmer had heard that if one picked a skunk up by the toil the animal wruld not resort to its disagreeable and !ow down practice of scattering an of'cnsive odor ell over the landscape, nnd , everything within range, and so he de- 5- cided to try out the> stunt and vohin- -• teered to take the skunk from the trap.

Mr. R. got up and taking his shotgun went out to the porch just in time to see a man going from the house to an automobile. He commanded tlie man to halt, which had no effect, and as the machine was being rapidly driven away f\red a loadoi^ fine shot at the machine.

Harding's Kindliness Scores. 1 discussed the amiability of the conference proceedings, and the celerity with whjch ugreeiaenta were reached, with a visiting Englishman. He said something which It seems to me muy account in part for the pleasantness of the whole proceedings and the rapidity with which they have moved toward the seemingly assured point of success. The Englishman gave more credit to {'resident Harding than he gave to Secretary Hughes for the pla« '*r" found the meat of the comment in, ctdity of things generally, and for the Washington concerning the agreement for •* four-natlous pact Just entered Into by the plenipotentiaries In behaff Sf Great Britain.

Some men will vote for It who would not have voted In any circumstances for something which was much tike it/but which was proffered to the senate by different hands. Of SNSrae the frmr-power pact is not a leajnte of nations, but It Is an association of nations, as Mr. Harding visualises such an organization. In tfce book of synonyms "league" and "association" are printed one afinr "-ffBii''-' quick acquiescence of most of the nations represented in the- details of the program as outlined. Tills visiting Britisher asked me if I realized what an impression the apparent perHonal kindliness of Intention of President Harding in all the relations of life, national and international, hud made on the foreigners who are here in official capacity and also on the people who had sent these foreigners to Washington. He said the British believed in the sincerity i of the President and that his fetching way and his general kindliness of demeanor had strengthened the impression of sincerity and had been a most potent factor in bringing representatives into quick accord. There probnhly Is roniething in this — i AosreSWna * Herd as Fraa Fsem Tuberculosis Increases Its Value to tht Owner and the Community. (Prtparvd^jr th« UalUd States D«p*rtmeat • oi Agriculture) Fpr many years after tne agitation regarding bovine,, tuberculosis began,' there were very few people who entertained the hope that It would ultimately be eradicated. Now, after many years of effort, first unsuccessful but now giving great promise of success, there are many who firmly believe that the time is coming when this scourge of live stock will be conquered. Tuberculosis May Ba Banished. This chahgo of attitude has been brought about largely through the efforts of the bureau of animal- Industry of the United States Department of Agriculture, co-operating with the various state officials, which have been so successful that within a period of four years, during which the work has been directed toward ultimate elimination, several thousand herds have been accredited aa being free from the disease and a number of sizable areas in different states contain practically - no tuberculous cattle. These results hare demonstrated conclusively that, if sufficient funds are made available, this menace to human health and to the success of live-stock farming may be done away with in a practical manner. Tuberculosis of cattle Is one of the few farm problems that appeals with almost equal force to city people, for the healthfulness of milk and meat is of vital importance to them. This fact ought to make it easier to get the support necessary for putting, through such a country-wide program against 1 m-«ihimfmii ,m- • l ^ j ^ — S j i i s S S i a i B w *mmt mwmitwm*firm*9mim&**r*MA*i& lem of getting rid absolutely of tuberculosis. They have decided that It is the most feasible and practical way of carrying on the work. What was accomplished in Hillsdale county is be-' ing carried on at the present time in more than 20 other counties of the same state. Similar work is being done in New York, where 10 counties are engaged in area eradication.

There Is really a wide difference between wbst seemingly Is to come out of the Washington conference and what came out of the Versailles conference, but the two things trot along In paths parallel for some of their course, but which, after some distance has been covered, incline toward each other and finally meet. Joseph P. Tu.tnulty, the one time secretary to former President Wilson. has set It down over hi« signature that the ideas and the substance of this treaty are identical with those found In the Wilson covenant, and he quotes former pronouncements of Mr. Lodge and Mr. Taft to prove his point. Another man, who Ig snhl to he an expert, declares that the treaty savors 0t. the Hague "SncT~Tvot l»f~ Geneva. Well, whichever it savors of. the differences of opinion on the suhject, or at any rate the differences of expressions of opinion, which are not always the tame things as opinions, are perhaps of little moment because It seems assured that the senate will aoeent the lent, ratify t|ie nsceptfary t treaties, and that the partnership Of the United States in Mr. Harding's mssociatlon of nations win become an accomplished fact. • la ' dispatches it lias been said muthoritatlvely that the Japanese wooM accept the naval ratio of agenath proposed by "Mr. Hngfapg on II aftoapt the ^ jaftiry Treat*, °* « partnership "**£? m mat evening day of the conference!

Washington Grows Weary. News suggest* activity, and therefore It probably is bud newspaper work to put In the tlnst paragraph of a dispatch the information that Washington is getting tired of the strenuous life and hopes that what President Harding calls normalcy soon will be the rule of the day. Over in congress the members, although they will not admit it, are tired, not physically tired necessarily, but tired of the activities made necessary hy war and postwar conditions. Kverybody here hopea^anxL says so quietly, that things soon may be adjusted economically and In other ways so that when congress comes together again next year it will be confronted only with the necessity of doing such work as engaged it seven or eight years ago. The peace conference is suggestive of Quiet, and yet the social and busiactivltles attending this council of placidity have kept men's minds moving and their legs keeping accompaniment to .Jumping nerves. Pronouncements of peace have been like pronouncements of battle, full of exciting interest at to the effect on the future, and have created solicitude aa * W*' zfffl* to the next Step to be taken to insure that ameliorating conditions shall be made permanent. Congress is going to have some debates this winter on matters which, while apart from the conference, are to be more or less nerve-racking. There are several matters of high dispute to be settled and the debates are likely to run away with themselves. Since 1914 Washington has been in a ferment and it Is likely to remain so until some time in the perhaps genial summer of 1022. Yearly Conference Suggested. A yearly conference of the kind which ts now on In Washington has been suggested as a good means to keep the world content with itself, which means that the people of the world must be content with one another. The thought is that a yearly conference, or a conference every other year, can attend to all little troubles which may have come to interfere with the workings of the plans as outlined by the first conference. When the thought first was advanced a sort of a sigh went up from official Washington, for the suggestion was that this city agaTn might be the meeting place, everybody in the capital, except the hotelkeepers, wants to get bade to the quiet life, or at least to a life aa. near to the' qnlet as the rapid advancement of Aoxrtca'a pofltion in the world will admit It was a British representative who suggested the yearly conference.

There are more than 86,000,000 head of cuttle in the country worth nearly $3,000,000,000. Aside from the health aspect of the problem, the insuring of this vast amount of wealth against loss ought to appeal to all classes of people as a necessary measure for the good of the nation. At the present time various state and federal agencies are testing about 150,000 cattle a month and eliminating those that are found to be tuberculous, but It is expected that m the near future probably 1,000,000 head will be tested monthly by the combined forces. On that basis it Is easy to see that great progress will be made toward getting rid of the plague, for the evidence obtained shows that the methods now In use are practical; When the campaign began most of the stress was laid on cleaning up individual herds, and this was the only practical thing to do as not enough sentiment had been aroused to make It possible to get general support for a campaign in any locality. But the advantage gained by cattle breeders who were able to advertise tuberculosis-free herds was so great that skeptics were convinced, and now many localities have taken np the problem and are rapidly cleaning up all herds within their boundaries. In fact, at the present time this method of cleaning up circumscribed areas is the predominant one. Nine counties in the United States have now completed one or more official tuberculosis tests of the cattle within those areas, and about 50 counties are now either engaged in this work or are getting, ready to take it up. In some of the counties the supervisors appropriate funds to employ Inspectors who help th* state and federal officials. In others the farm bureaus have taken the job in hand. Hilladaie Courjty « Model. One of the best examples of what a county can do in [getting rid of this destructive diseaseNs found in Hillsdale county, Mich. On October 24 -a campaign was launched with the idea of cleaning out all the diseased cattle A force of 30 county, state, and federal inspectors was organised. They divided up the territory, giving a part of a township to each man. The county farm bureau furnished automobiles that were driven by the farmers who were leaders in the communities and bad Influence with the live-stock owners. By November 6 every herd in the .county bad heen tested. There were 2338 herds, containing 15,773 cattle, and 375 reactors were found. This meahg*that about 2.4 per cent of the cattle -in the county had the disease—a rather low percentage. In sections where the disease is no more extensive than this, the cost of clean-up is almost negligible when compared with the food that must ultimately come from It In this county the. farmers ana breeders, and in fact sir the peopjfof the county, were enthnslastKrmdch helped a great deal taward getting the work done la such aahortdjna. _ Other Cawtiee •eaofneJntafsste*. florae of the most p«>gressive live- ^ooaties in various part* of the ~stoc¥ from "unknown "causes'Tohave^ a competent veterinarian make a postmortem examination and cremate the remains or bury them deep in Quicklime. Hugs, next to poultry, are usually the most numerous live stock on the average farm, and as hog cholera is the most dreaded scourge which.jeopardizes . the porker population, it is obligatory that the carcasses of hogs dying from unknown causes should be burned or burled deep in quicklime. An old metal wheel serves as au excellent base for the funeral pyre. The wheel should be raised five or six Inches above the ground on three or four stones, so that a fire can be kindled underneath it. The carcass of the dead hog should be placed on this wheel. In order that the carcass1 will burn readily and thoroughly, it should be slashed deeply with a knife so that the flames may penetrate to the fat and ail the carcass burn rapidly. Where horses or cattle die, so much labor is involved in digging trenches of sufficient size and depth to accommodate them that it is preferable to dig deep a smaller grave and to dismember the carcasses so they will fit in the small space. These graves should be not leas than five feet deep and the carcasses should be covered thickly with quicklime, which will soon consume the fleshy portions. WATER FOR COWS IN WINTER If Possible it Should Be 16 or 20 Degrees Above Freesing—Stearn Boiler la Handy. . During the winter, when cows are stabled the greater part of the time, they should be watered two or three times a/day unless arrangements have been/made to keep water before them at ail times, says the United States Department of Agriculture, in Farmers' Bulletin *748, "The Feeding of Dairy Cows." The water should if possible be 15 or 20 degrees above freezing, and should be supplied at practically the same temperature every day. When water well above freezing temperature is stored in tanks and piped directly to the cow, there is probably little occasion to warm it. When it atands in a tank on which ice often forma, It usually pays to warm ft slightly. This can be done by a tank heater, by live steam or by hot water from a boiler. If a boiler is used for running a separator or for heating water to wash and sterilise utensils, steam from tt can readily and cheaply be used to warm the drinking water.

In the part there haa been some reason to complain that coots were clumsy In appearance or that they ran to the other extreme and were overdone In the way of gingerbread trimmings. But now all bt that ha* been, artistically overcome in both dh-ecjlpns. The coats and wraps tha,t .happy medium of design which Is so desirable and so filled with charm*. There is no reason why the coat nowadays should not be just as becoming as the frock. Sometimes it is even more so; But it is an Inspiring experience for any woman to be able to wear a beautiful gown covered by a beautiful wrap, knowing in her heart that when she sees fit to remove the outer garment she has In store for all onlookers a complete change of scene. The ceats are warm, too, by reason 'Of their featherweight and woolen interlining*. There Is nothing obvious about woolens in these modern days— nothing too plain and unbeautiful. They are all concealed under soft chiffons and silks and velvets and duvetynes. But they are on hand none the less to defy any cold breezes and to make the whiter weather pleasant no matter what the social occasion. Time was, you know, when If one cared to be interesting looking In winter then one made up one's mind to freeze gently but willingly. There was no chance for gracefulness combined with warmth. But now all that has changed, and the more delicate a wrap looks the more one may be sure that it has tucked away in its innards some fairy paddings that guarantee it for winter. Of Heavy Black Satin. One of Drecoll's coats Is made of heavy black satin, and for its lining there is all that "extraness" we have just been describing. The fur about the neck and sleeves is gray, the embroidery which is concentrated on the sleeves is also done in gray, and the lining, to repeat the general color scheme, Is a soft gray crepe. This desire for black and gray has become a general one during this present winter season. In all sorts and conditions of wraps and ways the union of the two colors is demonstrated. Really, one feels out of the general running If one has not at least " * • » • " •• » • • » » . . 1 iir»» iiMrti HI mm • M i l l * — — » ^ W — m -.¾ '-"- je*rt»'C*3S! or MAAKKT£ W A M M £ 'TON. 0. ft**3^ • v * | L •jfcss (Fur the waek ending Dec. » .

The cuffs of the sleeves are, perhaps, the most attractive part of this dress, for they accentuate that width about the lower portions of the sjcteves which, just at the present time, adds an Indescribable air of smartness to any gown. There are those who predict that the wide sleeve wj^thottly disappear from fashion'*' ways—In tact that it has already run its course.

The engineer had refused to resign and bad asked for a public hearing of the controversy evidently feeling that the commissioners did not have the authority to dismiss him. Only four of the supervisors voted against the* commissioners wliilti 23 went on record as having full confidence in* them. The meeting was a flat repudiation of Mr. Cox. The rond commissioners hrve employed Albert It. Bailey of Am. Arbor to succeed Mr. Cox, effective on January 1st.

' J ' :" WHAT EVERY WOMAN WANTS TO KNOW Underweight and Overweight Children had considerable highway construction experience.—Tribune. Both underweight and overweight children offer special nutritional problems. Both arc abnormal, being subject to disease* and to general retarded mental devlopment. Mothers should study their children, decide upon individual condition, and then plan meals to conform to proper corrective diet. The Christmas season with its accompaniment of holiday candies and highly seasoned foods; the New Year with its suggestion of-new regimes and good resolutions-—both, as our French neighbors say, "give one to think." The result of over indulgence In sweets and rich food is seldom so ipparent as at this time of the year when For Cold*, Conga*, r » , 3 v , HOWKLI.—AS Mr. and Mr.;. Robt. Brown of Ann Arbor were coniing over to Howell Sunday to spent'. Christmas with Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Garland, when about two miles south of Brighton on the Whitmore Lake ro.-id their car became nnmanageablr and went for the ditch. When the car tipped over or partly over, the flames were HJI over it in a minute. Mr. J :id Mrs. Brown left the car as quick as possible but were not able to pjt their grips in the back scat. AW they could do was to step back and watch it. The Essex sedan was completely destroyed, the most valuable thing left being the headlights as Mr. Brown thought. Unfortunately the car was not insured. Mr. and Mrs. Brown started to walk into Brighton but a passing cor picked them np. Mrs. Brown's mother, Mrs. A. D.

With the New Year, why not resolve to put the child, or those children upon a steady diet, combined with steady hoursf The supply of food should be generous in amount{ if insuftcient-the body is "burned" to provide energy, and loss of weight results; if two mttck the body refuses to function properly, more food being retained than is "burned up." In either case the sit- -nation is serious, retarded mental development being the most noticeable result.

To the proposal, the Americans, Japanese and Italians replied with expressions of surprise and regret, while the British charged openly that such a building .program must be regarded as a menace to British shores. Arthur J. Balfour added that he had no doubt, if occasion arose, Great Britain would be equal to it, but .only if she reserved complete freedom of action as to the construction of all types of auxiliaries which might be useful against under-water warfare.

"I'd never forgive myself if anything happened to you. I'd feel It w a s all due to me, and I lust couldn't bear»lt." "Dear little girl." he whispered tenderly, "you're simply adorable when you look like that. But not even for you would I back out of this show now." His mouth set in a grim Hue.

They drove slowly back to Guildford, and on the way he told her briefly of the murder of the American's secretary in Belfast, and his interview the preceding afternoon with the impostor at the Carlton. "It's a tough proposition," he remarked quletry. "They're absolutely without scruple, and their power seems unlimited. - 1 Know they are after the duchess of Larap3hire's pearls: I found the beautiful Irma consuming tea with young Laidley yesterday—you know, the duke's eldest son.

Out of quesbtion. . . ." Half-consciously Hugh listened, but, now that the moment for action had come, every faculty was concentrated on his own job. He saw half a dozen men go rushiug out into the garden through a side door, and then two more ran out and came straight toward him. They crashed past hi in and went on into the darkness, ami for an instant he wondered what they were doing. A little later he was destined to find out. . . . . Then cume a peal at the front-door hell, and he leierniined to wait n<> longer. He darted through che garden door, to find a flight of stairs in front of him. p'id in another moment he was on the tirst floor. He walked rapidly along the landing, trying to find his bearings, and, turning a corner he found himself at the top of the main staircase—the spot where he had' fought Peterson two nights previously. He walked quickly on to the room which he calculated was the one whore he hod seen the shadow on the blind. Without a second's hesitation he flung the door open and walked in. There lying in the bed, was the American, while crouched heside him, with a revolver in his hand, was a man. . . For a few seconds they watched one another in silence, and then the man straightened up. "The soldier!" he snarled. "You young pup!" Deliberately, almost casually, he raised his revolver and then the unexpected happened. A jet of liquid ammonia struck him full in the face, and with a short laugh Hugh dropped his water-pistol in his pocket, and lief a t chw things—whatever It was— was shut in Its cage. And now It w a s out. dodging through the trees, let loose by the two men. He heard something crash into a bush on his right, and give a snarl of anger. Like a flash he swerved into the undergrowth on the left. Then began a dreadful game. He was still jsume way from the fence, and he was hampered at every suep by the man slung over his hack. He could hear the thing blundering about searching for him, and suddenly, with a cold feeling of fear, lie realized that the animal was in front of him—that his way to the gate was barred. The uext moment lie saw it. . . . Shadowy, lndistiuct, in the darkness, he saw something glide between two bushes. Then it came out into the open, and he knew It had seen him, though as yet he could not make out what it was. Cautiously he lowered the millionaire to the ground, and took a step forward. It was enough ; with a snarl of fury the cnm. i shambled toward him. Two hairy arms shot out toward his throat, he s m d i the brute's foetid breath, hot and loathsome, and he realized what he was up against. It was a partially grown gorilla. Fur a full minute they fought in silence, save for the hoarse grunts of the animal as It tried to tenr away the man's hand from its thront, and then encircle him with its powerful arms. And with his bruin cold as ice Hugh saw liis danger and kept his head. It couldn't go on ; no human lining could last the pace, whatever hi* strength. Ami there was only one chance of finishing It quickly, the possibility that the grip taught hlza by niakl would serve with a monkey as it did with a man. He shii'ted his left thumb an Inch or two on the brute's throat, and the baboon, thinking he was weakening, redoubled as efforts» And then, little by little, t h e . t i n g n s xoved, and the grip which had been tight before gre\* tighter stilt Back went Its head, something was snipping in its neck With a scream of fear and rage It wrapped its legs round Dmrnmona squeezing and writhing, And then suddenly there was a tearing snap, and the ^reat limbs relaxed and grew limp. fc'ot a moment trV man mood watching the still quivering brute Ijfi&g at his feet; then, with a gasp of ntter exhaustion, he dropped on the ground himself.

And now he w s s wafting in, that peculiar condition of mind, which reveals itself outwardly In hands that are rather too warm, and feet that are rattier too cold.

T o u must stand a long way off when you do," she said demurely. **M least if it's the same thing as you told me over the 'phone." Hugh grinned sheepishly. "The exchange went wrong," he remarked at length. "Astonishing how rotten the telephones are in town these days." "Quite ramarkable," she returned. «1 thought you weren't feeling very well or something. Of course, If It was the exchange . . ." "They sort of buzz and b l o V don't you know," he explained helpfully. •That must be most fearfully jolly tor them," she agreed. And there w a s silence for the next two miles.

Tell me," he went on, and she felt his arm round her again forcing her to look at him —"tell me, don't you care . . . a little?" "What's the use?" She still struggled, but, even to her, it wasn't very convincing. "We've got other tilings to do. . . . We can't think of. . . ." And then this very determined young man settled matters in h i s usual straightforward fashion. She felt herself lifted bodily out of the car as If she had been a child: she found herself lying In his arms, with Hugh's eyes looking very tenderly Into her own, and a whimsical grin around his mouth. "Cars pass here," he remarked, "with preat regularity. I know you'd hate to be discovered in this position." "Would I?" she whispered. "I wonder . . .'* She felt his heart pound madly against her; and with a sudden quick movement she put forth her arms round his neck and kissed him on the mouth. "Is that good enough?" she asked, very low: and Just for a few moments. time stood still. . . . Then, very gently, he put her hack in the car. "I suppose," he remarked resignedly, "that we had better descend to trivialities. We've had lots of fun and games since I last saw you a year or t w o ago." "Idiot boy," she said happily. "It was yesterday morniftg." "The interruption is considered trivial. Mere facts don't count when It's you and me." There w a s a further interlude of uncertain duration, followed rapidly by another because the first was so nice. "To resume," continued Hugh, "I regret to state that they've got Potts. The girl sat up quickly and stared at him. "Got him? Oh, Hugh! how did they manage it?" 'Tm d—d If I know," he answered grimly. "They found out that he w a s in my bungalow at Goring during the afternoon by sending round a man to see about the water.

Of course; Potts had gone." "I heard the car drive up In the middle of the night," m i d th« girl be put her Into * carriage. And t w o minutes later, with the touch of her lips warm on his, and her anxious little cry, "Take care, my darling!— take care!" still ringing in his ears, he got into his car and drove off to an hotel to get an early dinner. FOUR. At a quarter to ten he backed his car into the shadow of some trees not far from the gate of The Elms. Save for a light In the sitting-room and one In a bedroom upstairs, the front of the house was In darkness, and, treading noiselessly on the turf, he explored all round it. There was one bedroom light at the back of the house, and thrown on the blind he could see the shadow of a man. As he watched, the man got up and moved away, only to return In a moment or two and take up his old position. "It's one of those two bedrooms," he muttered to himself, "If he's here at all." Then he crouched In the shadow of some shrubs and waited. Through the trees to his right he could see The Larches, and once, with a sudden quickening of his heart, he thought he saw the outline of the girl show up In the light from the drawing-room. But it was only for a second, and then it was gone. . . . He peered at his watch: it was Just tpn o'clock. The trees were creaking gently in the faint wind; all around him the strange night noises—riolses "which play pranks with a man's nerves—were whispering and muttering. Bushes seemed suddenly to come to life, and move; eerie shapes crawled over the ground toward j him—figures which existed only in his imagination. And once again the thrill of the night stalker gripped him. He remembered the German who had lain motionless for an hour in a little gully by Hebuterne, while he from behind a stunted bush had tried to locate him. And then that one creak as the Boche had moved his leg. And then . . . the end. On that night, too, the little hummocks had moved and taken to themselves strange shapes: fifty times he had imagined he saw h i m ; fifty times he knew he w a s wrong—in time, He was used to It; the night held no terrors for him. only a fierce excitement. And thus It was that as he crouched In the bushes, waiting for the game to start his pulse was as normal, and his nerves as steady a s If he had been sitting down to supper. The only difference was that in his hand he held something tight-gripped. At Inst faintly In the distance he heard the hum of s car. Rapidly it grew louder, and he smiled grimly to himself as' the sound of five On melodious voices singing lustily struck his ear. They passed along the road In front of the house. There was a sudden crash—then silence; but only for a moment. Peter'i voice came first: T o n priceless old ass, you've rammed the blinking gate."

And then he reached the garden. . . . Everything had fallen out exactly as he had hoped, but had hardly dared to expect. He heard Peterson's voice, calm and suave as usual, answering Jerry. From the garden in front came the dreadful sound of a duet by Algy and Peter. Not a soul was In sight; the back of the house was clear. All that he had to do was to walk quicly through the wicket-gare to The Larches with his semi-conscious burden, get to his car, and drive off. It ail seemed so easy that he laughed. . . . But there were one or two factors that he had forgotten, nnd the first and most Important one was the man upstairs. The window was thrown up tertainments I've seen for a long time." The culm, expressionless voice mad* him look up wearily, and he saw tha< he was surrounded by men. The inevitable clp;ar glowed red in the darkness, and after a moment or two he scrambled unsteadily to his f**rt. "I'd forgotten your 4—d menagerie I must frankly confess," he remarked "What's the party for?" He glanced at the men who had closed in round him. "A guard of honor, my youn| friend," said Peterson suavely, "to leoo you to the house. I wouldn't he*iltatl . , . It's very foolish, Your fnendi have gone, and, strong as you are, 1 don't think you can manages ten." Hugh commenced to stroll toward the house. "Well, don't leave the wretched Potts lying about. I dropped him ovw there." "The Soldier!" He Snarled. Young Pupl" •You suddenly, and the man leaned out waving his arms. He was still gasping with the strength of the ammonia, but Hugh saw him clearly in the light from the room behind. And as be cursed himself for a fool in not having Med him up, from the trees close by there came the sharp clang of metal. With a quick catch In his breath he began to run. The two men who had rushed past him before he had entered the house, and whom, save for a passing thought, he h a d disregarded, had become the principal danger. For he had heard that clang before; he remembered Jem Smith's white horrorstruck fat*, aad tilts hi* sigh of ra- CHAPTER V I I . In Which He Spends an Hour sr f > * on a Roof. ONE. Dnimmnfirl paused for a momes* a< the door of the sitting room, then wits a slight shrug he stepped past Peterson. During the Inst few days ha had grown to look on this particular i"OorJl as the private den of the principals of the gang. He associated It In hh» mild with Peterson himself, suave. Impassive, ruthless; with the girl Irma, per fectly gowned, lying on the sofa, smoking Innumerable cigarettes, nnd mattlcuring her already faultless nails; sod In a les'ser decree, with Henry I/akington's thin, cruel face, nnd blue staring eyes. P.ut tonight n different scene cfMlfronted him. The girl was not there j her accustomed place on the sofa wat occupied by an nnkempf-looking man with a rngped beard.

T h e lack of money stopped it and nothing else, a n d this the engineering a n d commercial worlds have realized. Didn't Know About Mosquitoes. There Is a close friendship existing between Bunuu-Vurilla a n d several of the American engineers who finally, built a lock canal after the French had given over the work on their sea level project. T h e colonel ulso was a close friend of Dr. William C. Gorgas. the surgeon general of the U.

Colonel Runau-Varilla has told me that the French, when operating on t h e Isthmus, had no Inkling of course t h a t the dread disease was transmitted by the mosquitoes. He said that they did not know what transmitted i t ; that they tried every known m e a n s of prevention and did not succeed in overcoming the fever, but that one thing which was done did reduce the fever cases, and that since this one thing was tried tie h a s learned why it w a s partially successful, although the reason for success was not the one to which credit first was given.

A "balanced diet" may sound confusing to many people The facts, as explained here, are simple. The secret of a "balanced diet" is to have food containing all the elements needed for proper nutrition. These elements are protein, to nourish the tissues; starch and sugar to furnish energy; fat to supply heat; and mineral salts to provide the material necessary for building nerves, brain, and tooth and bone structure. Grape-Nuts, the nourishing cereal made of whole wheat flour and malted barley, served with cream or milk, is a complete food for young and old alike. Go to your grocer today and get a package of Grape-Nuts. Eat it with milk or cream for breakfast; or with stewed fruit, jelly or jam, as a daHciom dessert for lunch or dinner.

No International conference thus far has been held In which there have been so few signs of friction. It is perfectly true that there have been troubles and that this country h a s demanded this thing, and that country has demanded that thing, and as a result clouds have come In the conference, but the clouds thus far quickly have been dispelled, and serenity has come once more upon the scene. Probably never before in t h e history of the world was an international conference held, t h e main purposes of which were given so enthusiastic a support by the press of the nation. Here and there have been discordant editorial notes, but in the main, rej gardless of political views and polltl- ! cal affiliations, t h e majority ed+torlal expression h a s been favorable to the completion of t h e plans of the conference as they wetv outlined in the call for its coming together. Needless Alarm Over French Demand. When word came that t h e French were to demand the right under t h e conference agreement to build ten 35.- 000-ton battleships between t h e years of 1925-1935, there w a s instant feeling on the p a r t of a good many per- I sons here who a r e quick to j u m p to i conclusions, t h a t the end of everyj thing had corne a n d t h a t t h e conference must break up and go its way tt# great work undone. I There were other persons, compos- ] ing the great majority, who refused to take the French proposal seriously, and who s a i d : " J u s t wait a day or two and this thing, as other things have been, will be straightened out." " T h i s thing" w a s straightened out, and t h e n e w s p a p e r men who refused to be stampeded Into t h e field of fear were glad that they kept tiie check rein on their desire to run at the first t h r e a t of disaster. For a long time it w a s urged by the pessimists that J a p a n would not ac- , cept the naval ratio proposed by the United States government. Some men went so far a s to say that J a p a n m&& notoriously obstinate in all its oRilings, and that nothing could induce 1 It to change Us position. Again the pessimists were disappointed. There w e r e some few changes made, not in t h e navy ratio-itself hut In the allotroents of ships under the ratio, nnd this w a s all t h a t happened, and men ; who s a w black, s a w white again. Buncu-Varilla Talks of Canal. Battleships of 35,000 tons of .ype : which t h e F r e n c h expressed a deslra j to build can pass through t h e locks of t h e P a n a m a canal. It h a s been claimed from t h e beginning of the conference that t h e United States i seemingly h a s desired to keep w a r s h i p | dimensions well within the capacity of t h e can a! locks. If men-of-war with a greater length, or with greatpr l«eaxn t h a n those of t h e locks of the canal, shall be constructed t h e w a t w w a y In a sense will become obsolete. Now, t a i s p a r t i c u l a r m a t t e r of b a t t l e s h i p s In their relation t o t h e P a n a m a canal probably h a s So it was that lie ordered glass windows put in all the q u a r t e r s with orders that, even though it was close and stuffy within, the windows should he kept closed. Following the emplacement of the glass windows there was a marked decrease in the cases of yellow fever. T h e colonel says that until certain discoveries were made lu connection with the transmission of the disease by mosquitoes lie believed thoroughly that the exclusion of the night air alone was responsible for the decrease in the fever cases. Now it is known that the res I reason that the yellow fever decreased after windows were put tn is that a yellow fever mosquito which is In condition to transmit the disease, never bites anybody in the day time. It Is the female of t h e species which transmits the disease. T h e male stegoinyla mosquito never bites. T h e female remains all day long in the dark shadows of the underbrush and comes forth at night to seek tts human prey, Winter Comes to Washington. Winter lias come down upon Washington with a vigor that was wanting one year ago. T h e cold and t h e holiday spirit together took hold of law makers, residents, international conferees, and the public generally. Washington assumes a new demeanor with the cloak of winter. Last July the mercury went considerably above t h e 100 mark In t h e weather kiosks on the streets and continued this climbing performance for a good many days. Washington panted and It continued to pant until , October came In. Cold ls a grateful change and much of a relief for people who a r e not habituated to the Capital City climate. December and J a n u a r y are t h e only winter months In this town, although occasionally February breaks loose with n blast or two. A n a t u r e calendar, faithfully kept for eighteen years with the exception of two years when absent in the army, shows t h e writer that thp soft maple buds always begin to show red and to swell a hit In Washington either at the end of the first week in February, or at the beginning of t h e second week. From that time on increased daily manifestation «5 of spring a r e evident everywhere. Last year March had not finisher] its course before t h e oriental magnolias were In full bloom, covering t h e brnnehes of t h ° bearing trees either with a sheet of w h h e . or a sheet of purple and white, according to the free species. This year everybody looks for something different, but It is a safe prediction that even though the frost shall strike deep and the snow shaU bank up, the soft maples win r u n t r u e to form and show their first reddening offerings early in February. Curiously enough, the red buds came earlier ten years ago, when the cold broke a record here, than they did In any earlier year or have In any year since. and hy is m e rime to do nothing.

Isn't this a good place to use the benefit of the doubt, too? Take your own case: If you don't know for sure whether tea or coffee is harming you, you do know that many are harmed by the drug element in tea and coffee, and that headaches, nervousness, or high blood pressure are symptoms which often tell that the drug, caffeine, is giving the nervous system too much jolt. Probably you know, too, that some people can't drink a cup of tea or coffee at bed-time, and sleep well that night Where many, have been harmed by tea and coffee, and you may be harmed, isn't it well to pat the tunefit of the doubt on your side before « doubt befiomes an unpleasant certainty?

In town, their exclusive feature, the eight graduated corrugations moulded in the sidewall of the tire, gives you full protection against curb-scrapes and other hazards which damage the unprotected sidewall of other tires. In the country, on unpaved roads, the sidewall corrugations furnish protection against the excessive wear caused by travelling in harcf and deep ruts. These corrugations also furnish the necessary purchase to get a car out of a holding rut at will. Together with an exceptionally broad and heavy tread, this feature gives Corduroy Cords remarkable endurance and comparative freedom from the usual tire troubles. No matter what kind of driving you do, Corduroy Cords will give you the kind of service you expect. *\,.- J r ' i > V'' Grand Rapids Tire and Rubber Corporation GRAND RAPIDS - • MICHIGAN »• i T h e r e i s p l e i i P v o f r o o m a t t h e t o p — a n d t h e r e n t i s r h e u p e r .

Cleveland, O.—Six men, all of Port Huron, Mich., aboard the Great Lakes Towing company's lighter. T. F. Newman, which foundered off Conneaut harbor Jan. 11, owe their lives to the fact that the craft lodged against the west breakwater before she rolled on her side and sank in 30 feet of water.

Easy to start from the breakfast table with zest and enthusiasm, but how easy is it to keep on? Does ambition last, or lag, as the day develops? The afternoon "slump'* is a factor to be counted upon, in business or social life. Usually, there's a reason. Nerves whipped by tea or coffee won't keep on running, and they won't stand constant whipping. Many a man or woman who has wished the afternoon would be as bright as the morning has simply been wishing that the nerves wouldn't have to pay the natural penalty for being whipped with the caffeine drug. Postum gives a breakfast cup of comfort and cheer, without any penalties afterward. There's no "letting down" from Postum —no midday drowsiness to make up for midnight wakefulness; no headaches; no nervous indigestion; no increase of blood pressure. Think it over. There's full satisfaction in Postum—a cup of comfort for anybody (the children included), arty time. You can get Postum from your grocer or your waiter today, and probably youll begin to have better tomorrows, as so many thousands have had, who have made the change from coffee to PostuxxL P o s t u m c o m e * I n t w o > f o r m « : I n s t a n t P o s t n m ( i n t i n s ) m a d s i n s t a n t l y I n t h e c u p b y t h e a d d i t i o n o f b o i l i n g w a t e r .

Newberry, of Detroit, duly entitled to his seat in the United States senate from Michigan and dismissing charges of corruption filed on January 4, 1919 by Henry Ford, Democratic aspirant for the seat. The vote marked the end of the bitterest fought struggle ever staged for a Beat in either house of congress, and the adoption of the resolution, introduced by Senator Spencer, Republican, of Missouri, only was accomplished after sharp debate of hours. When the roll was finally called, it was found nine Republicans had deserted the ranks of their party and voted to unseat Mr. Newberry, while a solid Democratic vote was cast against the resolution. Senator Johnson, Republican, California, was the only member of that party who did not record his choice In the matter. Senator Watson, Democrat, Georgia, who had previously announced he would desert his party and vote for the Michigan man, was not in the chamber and did not cast any vote. The contest runs back to 1918 when former President Wilson asked Henry Ford to run for the senatorship from Michigan. Mr. Ford consented but declined to make known his political affiliations and the primary contest started with Mr. Ford's name on both Republican and Democratic ballots, being opposed on the Republican by Newberry and several others. On the Democrat ballots he was opposed by James W. Helme of Adrian, Mich. Mr. Ford won the Democratic nomination in the primaries on August 27, 1918, and Mr. Newberrv th* CONVICT TO LAND IN SOFT SPOT AFTER SS YEAR8 ON 8 L A T BED L Lansing.—How would you Ilka to have a real spring bed to sleep on after occupying a steel slat bed for 35 years? * That change is going o happen at Jackson prison, says Warden Harry L.

"So thla la the Insolent young swine. la l t r The bloodshot eyes of j b e man with the scarred face turned on him aaorouely. "What I cannot understand *la why he hasn't been killed by now."

And you do hate me, don't you, Henry? How's the jaw?" "Captain Drunmjond," said Lakington, Ignoring Hugh and addressing the • r a t speaker, **was very nearly killed last night. I thought for some time as to whether I would or not, but I finally decided It would be much too easy a death. So It can be remedied tonight." If Hugh felt a momentary twinge of fear at the calm, expressionless tone, and the half-satisfied grunt which greeted the words, no trace of it ahowed on his face. Already the realization had come to him that if he got through the night alive he would be more than passing lucky, but he was too much of a fatalist to let that worry him unduly. So he merely stifled a yawn, and again turned to Lakington. "So It was you, my little one. whose fairy face I saw pressed against the window. Would it be indiscreet to ask how you got the dope into us?" Lakington looked at him with an expression of erim satisfaction on his "You were gassed, if you want to know.

Once again he smiled genially. "As 1 said before, In a house like this, you can never telL, . . ." The intimidated rabbit, breathing heavily, was staring at Hugh fascinated; and after a moment Hugh turned to him with a courteous bow. "Laddie," he remarked, "you've been eating onions. Do you mind deflecting, the blast in the opposite direction?" His calm imperturbability seemed to maddun Lakington, "You wait," he snarled thickly; "you wait tiil I've finished with you. You won't be so d—d humorous then. . . ." Hugh regarded the speaker languidly. "Your supposition is more than probable," he remarked. In a bored voice. "I shall be too Intent on getting Into a Turkish bath to remove the contamination to think of laughing." Slowly Lakington sank bark in his chair, a hard, merciless smile on his lips; and for a moment or two there was silence in the room. It was broken by the unkempt man on the sofa, who, without warning, exploded unexpectedly- "A truce to all this fooling," be burst forth In a deep rumble; "I confess I do not understand it. Are we assembled here tonight, comrades, to listen to private Quarrels and stupid talk?" A murmur of approval came from the others, and the speaker stood up waving his arms. **I know not what this young man has done: I care less. In Russia such t r i f l e s m f l t f e r n o t W*» >>HH f h o o n r t o o r . die. Did we not kill thousands—aye, tens of thousands of his kidney, before \v«» ohtaJn.M the great freedom? Are is even now beginning to gloat in pleasant anticipation." Not a muscle on the soldier's face twitched; not by the hint of a look did he show the keenly watching audience that he realized his danger. Lakington's face was merciless, with its fiendish look of anticipation, and Hugh stared at him with level eyes for a while before he turned toward the door. "Then I will say 'Good night,'" he remarked casually. "Is It the same room that I had last time?" "No." said Peterson. -A different one—specially prepared for you. If you get to the top of the stairs a man j grimly. r- '*The scum certainly would not be complete," he remarked to Peterson, -without a filthy Boche in It." The German pushed back his chair with an oath, his face purple with paaslon. "A filthy Boche," he muttered thickly, lurching toward Hugh. "Hold him the arms of, and I will the throat tear out. . . ." It all happened so quickly. At one moment Hugh was apparently intent npon selecting a cigarette, the next Instant the case had fallen to the fioor; there was a dull, heavy thud, and the Boche crashed back, overturned a chair, and fell like a log to the floor, his head hitting the wall with a vicious crack. The bloodshot being resumed his seat a little limply. Hugh resumed his search for a cigarette. "After which breezy Interlude," remarked Peterson, "let us to business g e t " Hugh paused In the act of striking • » • * " * *T* H3 b • K i l l Him Now—Throw Him In a Cor* ner and Lat Us Proceed." a match, and for the first time a genalna smile apieed over his face. "There are moments, Peterson," he •turmured, **when you really appeal t o me." Petef>on took the empty chair next to Lakington. "Sit down," he aald shortly. "I can anly hope that I shall appeal to you •till more before we kill you." Hugh bowed and sat down. "Consideration,'* he murmured, "was always your strong point. May I ask bow long I have to live?" Peterson smiled genially. "At the earnest request of Mr. Lakmgton you are to be spared until tomorrow. At least, that is our present tetaotioa. Of cetrae, tbare might be throw him in a corner and let us proceed." He sat down, amidst a murmur of approval, in which Hugh joined heartily. "Splendid," he murmured. "A magnificent peroration. Am I right, sir, In assuming that you are what is vulgarly known as a Bolshevist?" The man turned his sunken eyes, glowing with the burning fires of fanaticism, on Drummond. "I am one of those who are fighting for the freedom of the world," he cried harshly, "for the right to live of the proletariat." He flung out his arms wildly. "It Is freedom ; It Is the dawn of the new age." Hugh looked at him with genuine curiosity; It was the first time he had actually met one of these wild visionaries in the flesh. And then the curiosity was succeeded by a very definite amazement: what had Peterson to do with such as he? For the moment his own deadly risk was forgotten: a growing excitement filled his mind. Could It be possible that here, at last, was the real object of the gang; could it be possible that Peterson was organizing a deliberate plot to try and Bolshevize England? He looked up to find Peterson regarding him with a fatnt smile. "It is a little difficult to understand, isn't It, Captain Drummond?" he said, carefully flicking the ash off his cigar "I told you you'd find yourself in deep water." Then he resumed the contemplation of the papers In front of him. Hugh half closed his eyes, while a general buzz of conversation broke out round the table. Fragments of conversation struck his ears from time to time. The intimidated rabbit, with the light of battle in his watery eye, was declaiming on the glories of workmen's councils; a bullet-headed man was shouting an inspiring battle cry about no starvation wages arfd work for all. "Can it be possible," thought Hugh, grimly, "that auch aa these have the power to control big destinies?" And then, because be had some experience of what one unbalanced brain, whose owner could talk, was capable of achieving; because he knew something about mob psychology, his half contemptuous amusement changed to a bitter foreboding. • "You fool \" he cried suddenly to the Russian ; and everyone ceased talking. "You poor d—d boob ! You—and your new earth! In Petfograd today bread 1« two pounds four shillings a pound ; tea, fifteen pounds a pound. Do you call that freedom?" He gave a contemptuous laugh. Too aurprlsed to speak, the Russian sat staring at him; and It was Peterson who broke the alienee with hla suave voice. "Your distress, I am glad to say, la not likely to be one of long duration," he remarked. "In fact, the time has come for you to retire for the night, my young friend." He stood up smiling; then he walked over to the bell behind Hugh and rang it. "Dead or mad—I wonder which." He threw the end of his cigar into the grate as Hugh rose. "While we deliberate down here on various mat> beeide him, and wlt» -a" series of ominous tbuda a body relied down t h e stairs into the hall below. "You fool." He beard Lakington's voice, shrill with anger. "You've killed him. Switch on the light . . ." But before the order could be carried out Hugh bad disappeared, like a great cat, Into the darkness of the passage above. As luck would have it the first room he darted into was empty, and he flung up the window and peered o u t A faint, watery moon snowed him a twenty-foot drop onto the grass, and without hesitation he flung his legs over the sill. And at that moment something prompted him to look upward. It was a dormer window, and to an active man access to the roof was easy. Without an instants hesitation he abandoned all thoughts of retreat; and when two excited men rushed into the room he was firmly ensconced, with his legs astride of the ridge of the window, not a yard from their heads. Securely hidden in the shadow, he watched the subsequent proceedings with genial toleration. A raucous bellow from the two men announced that they had discovered his line of escape; and. In half a minute the garden was full of hurrying figures. One, calm and impassive, his identity betrayed only by the inevitable cigar, stood by the garden door, apparently taking no p a n in the game; Lakington, blind with fury, was running round in small circles, cursing every- \ «*»e Impartially. •The car is still there." A man came u p i o Peterson, and Hugh heard the wortrs distinctly. "Then he's probably over at Ben ton's house. I will go and see." Hugh watched the thick-set, massive figure stroll down toward the wicket gate, and he laughed gently to himself. Then he grew serious again, and with a slight frown he pulled out his watch and peered at It. "Half-past one . . . two more hours before dawn. And In those two hours he wanted to explore the house from on top; especially he wanted to have a look at the mysterious central room of which Phyllis had spoken to him— the room where Lakington kept his treasures. Hut until the excited throng below went Indoors, it was unsafe to move. Once out of the . +-» U i H U t l see hltu crawling over the roof In the moonlight. At times the thought of the helpless man for whose detith he had in *SE&SSK He Opened the Door and Stood There 8m I ling. will show you where it Is." He opened the door and stood there smiling. And at that moment all the lights went out TWO. The darkness could he felt, as real darkness inside a house always can be felt. Not the faintest glimmer even of greyncss showed anywhere, and Hugh remained motionless, wondering what the next move was going to be. Now that the night's ordeal had commenced, all his nerve had returned to him. He felt Ice-cold ; and as his powerful hands clenched and unclenched by his sides, he grinned faintly to himself. Then very cautiously he commenced to feel his way toward the door. At that moment someone brushed past him. Like a flash Hugh's hand shot out and gripped him by the arm. The man wriggled and twisted, but he was powerless as a child, and with another short laugh Hugh found his throat with his other hand. And again silence settled on the room . . . Still holding the unknown man In front of him, he reached the foot of the stairs* and there he paused. He had suddenly remembered the mysterious thing which had whizzed past his head that other night, and then clanged suddenly into the wall beside him. He had gone up five stairs when it had happened, and now with his foot on the first, he started to do some rapid thinking. If, as Peterson had kindly assnred him, they proposed to try and send him mad, It was unlikely that they would kill him on the stairs. At the same* time It was ohviously. an Implement capable of accurate adjustment, and therefore It was more than likely that they would use it to frighten him. And if they did—If they did . . . The unknown man wriggled feebly In his hands, and a sudden unholy look came on to Hugh's face. "It's the only possible chance," he said to himself, "and If it's you or me, laddie, I guess It's got to be you." With a quick heave he jerked the man off his feet, and lifted him up till his head was above the level of his own. Then clutching him tight. he commenced to climb. His own head was bent down, somewhere In the region of the man's back, and he took no notice of the feebly kicking legs. Then at last he reached the fourth step, and gave a final adjustment to his aeml-consclous burden. He pressed his head even lower In the man's back, and lifted him up another three inches. "How awfully jolly!" he murmured. "I hope the result will please yon." "Td stand quite still if I were you," aald Peterson suavely. "Just listen." Aa Hugh had gambled on, the performance was designed to frighten. Instead of that, something hit the neck of the man he was holding with aoch force that U wrenched him clean It had been necessary, he realized: you can curry someone upstairs in a normal house without him having his neck broken—but still . . . And then he wondered who he was. It had been one of the men who sat round the table—of that he was tolerably certain. But which . . . ? Was it the frightened bunny, or the Russian, or the gentleman with the hloodshot eye? The only comfort was that whoever It had been, the world would not he appreciably the poorer for his sudden decease, The only regret was that it hadn't been dear Henry. . . . He had a dlstate for Henry which far exceeded his dislike of Peterson. "He's not over there." Peterson's voice came to him from below, "And we've wasted time enough as It Is." The men had gathered together In a group. Just below where Hugti was sitting, evidently awaiting further orders. "Do yon mean to say we've lost the young swine again?" said Lakington angrily. "Not lost—merely mislaid." murmured Peterson. "The more I see of him the more do I admire his Initiative." Lakington snorted. "It was that d—d fool Ivolsky's own fault," he snarled; "why didn't he keep still as he was told to do?" "Why, Indeed," returned Peterson. his cigar glowing red. "And I'm afraid we shall never know. He Is very dead." He turned toward the house. "That concludes the entertainment, gentlemen, for tonight. I think you can all go to bed." He disappeared into the house, and the others followed slowly. For the time being Hugh was safe, and with a sigh of relief he stretched his cramped limbs and lay hack against the sloping roof. Tf only he had dared to llgfit a cigarette. THREE. It was half an hour before Drummond decided that it was safe to Rtart exploring. First he took off his shoes, and tying the laces together, he slung them around his neck. Then, as silently as he could, he commenced to scramble upward. It was not an easy operation; one slip and nothing could have stopped hlra sliding down and finally crashing Into the garden below, with a broken leg, at the very least, for his pains. In addition, there was the risk of dislodging a slate, an unwise proceeding In a house where most of the occupants slept with one eye open. But at last he got his hands over the ridge of the roof, and in another moment he was sitting straddlewlse across it. A sudden rattle cloie to him made him start violently; only to curse himself for a nervous ass the next moment, and lean forward esgerly. One of the blinds had been released from Inside the room, and a pale, diffused light came Altering out Into the night from the side of the glass roof. He waa still craning backward and forward to try and find some chink through which he could see, when, with a kind of uncanny deliberation, one of the panes of glass slowly opened. It waa worked oa> a ratchet thanks to the unseen operator below. Then he.leant forward cautiously, and peered in. . . . The whole room was visible to him, and his jaw tightened as be took In the scene. In an arcjcuair. smoking as unconcernedly as ever, sat Peterson. He was reading a letter, and occasionally underlining some point with a pencil. Beside him ou a table was a big ledger, and every now and then he would turn over a few pages and make an entry. But it was not Peterson on whom the watcher ubove was concentrating his attention; it was Lakington, taking a red velvet box out of a drawer in the desk. He opened it lovingly, and Hugh saw the flash of diamonds. Lakington let the stones run through his hands, glittering with a thousand flames, while Pe terson watched him contemptuously. "Baubles," he said, scornfully "Pretty baubles. What will you grt for them?" "Ten, perhaps fifteen thousand," returned the other. "But It's not the money I care about; it's the delight In having them, and the skill required to get them." Peterson shrugged his shoulders. HSkl!l which would give you hundreds of thousands if you turned it into proper channels." Lakington replaced the stones, and threw the end of his cigarette Into the grate. "Possibly, Carl, quite possibly. But it bolls down to this, my friend, uiat you like the big canvas with broad effects; I like the miniature and the well-drawn etching." "Which makes u.s a ve^y happy combination," s«id Peterson "The pearls, don't forget, are your job. The big thing"—he turned to the other, and a trace of excitement came into his voice—"the big thing Is mine." The sound of the door opening made both men swing round instantly' then Peterson stepped forward wltn • smile as !rm* entered. "Back, my deur. I hardly expected you so soon." In a few words he told the girl what had happened, ami she clapped her hands together delightedly. "Assuredly I shall have to marry that man." she cried.

LAND OF WEAI Potentialities of Western Canada Abundantly Proved. >$ Prizes Taken at International Live Stock Exposition Show What Land Is Capable of Producing. Forty years ago the first sale waf made of lands acquired by the Canadian Pacific rallwuy. This is but a short Npnn in the lives of many, and there ure those who look back upon that period as it being but of yesterday. Yet when one glances back it is to marvel ut the accomplishments of that period. One of the most striking of these is the progress that has been mude in Western Canada since that day, forty years ago, when an official of the railway placed his signature to the document that gave possession to the new owner of a section of land. This was the first sign of the wealth that in time would be added to the wealth of the world In forty years, this single section of land being the base upon which the future would be built. The potentiul wealth was but in embryo; today It Is a big, living reality. Among the many things that reveal this, may be seen the winnings made by Western Canada exhibitors at the International Live Stock show held in Chicago in 1921. These were so marked In their number as to give to the world—the American world—a splendid idea of the excellence of the products of the farms of the new but rapidly developing country lying to the north of the International boundary line. The results of the exhibition show, according to the Manitoba Free Press, that in live stock and grain exhibits the three prairie provinces of Canada made something like 150 winnings. Every animal sent from the province of Albcrtu won n prize. Exhibits included Shorthorn and Hereford cattle and Percheron and Clydesdale horses.

In live stock classes alone Saskatchewan had sixty entries und took sixtyfour ribbons. The winning of the grand championship for Clydesdale stallions by a Saskatchewan horse, for the second lime in succession, was almost exceptional. He was bred on a Western Canada farm, fitted and prepared for exhibition there, and able to win over horses shown from the studs of men who have unlimited money to spend on the breeding and preparation of their exhibits. This Is proof positive that the farmers of Western Canada are not only In a position to breed their own horse power, and that of a very high quality, but to breed horses that will be saleable In any market of the world. Manitoba rakes just pride In the fact that a Percheron stallion, first in his class and Canadian-bred champion. was bred by Vance, of Crandall, Manitoba. Manitoba took 04 places outside of the grain exhibits. When nil Is said and done, the real triumphs are the wins of both live stock j and grains actually produced In the great Canadian yirovlnces.

Many ambitious men and women live only half a life— and don't know it No person whose nerves are continually irritated, whose appetite and digestion are disturbed, or who doesn't sleep well has more than half his normal chance for success in life. For weakness, debility, anemia and general lack of tone are a serious handicap to anybody. Those who drink tea or coffee are often sufferers from these conditions. Tea and coffee contain caffeine, a substance which has a decided stimulant action on the nerves and brain cells. Each cup of strong coffee contains about as large a dose of caffeine as your doctor would ordinarily give to a very sick person. You can readily tee that the effect of giving this stimulant regularly to a well person might finally have a tendency to make him sick. If you want to avoid a very common cause of irritation and enjoy restful sleep, good digestion, and all the feeling of vigor and robust endurance that comes to healthy, normal people, quit tea and coffee, and drink Postum, instead. It is a rich, coffee-like cereal beverage—perfectly delicious! Order Postum from your grocer today.

London—Sherwood Foster says there is not a woman with so small a waist line today as was fashionable in Medici times in England. In connection with the Devonshire House fete there was a pageant showing the styles of all ages. Mr. Foster found a 13-lnch waist. While scores responded, all of them were oversized, many of them having waists of 18 inches, and only two—the smallest— with 15-inch waists.

Two head of young1 cattle burned with it, along with all the hay, grain and tools. The cause was the explosion of a gasoline engine which wits said to have been on the barn fio. r. The Brighton fire department answered the call but when it arrived the building was so far gone that nothing could save it, only the chemical engine being pumped. The fire spread so quickly that it was impossible to get all the stock out. Two horses had to be lead out with blankets over their heads. A Ford car belonging to Clyde McDonnell, who is helping on the place was consumed. Nearly all of the tools on the place were burned. The tile silo stood unharmed' in the midst of the flames.

C Y A P P L E : PROPRIETOR • CHKSEA—At a meeting of the Board of Commerce last evennig arrangements were practically completed whereby the Casey-Hudson company of Chicago will move to Chelsea, occupying the No. 8 plant of the Lewis Spring and Axle Co., which property they will acquire by a purchase contract with Mr. F. H. Lewis. The Casey-Hudson Company it, not a newly organized concern, bvt has been doing business successfully in Chicago for several years and in spite of the past year's business depression, they did upward* of a million dollars business, and employed 250 men. They are essentially a screw machine products company, manufacturing a large and varied line, including a number of specialties such as automatic windshield wipers, automatic electric openers, spark plugs, Ford timer and axle' bearing parts, transmission and other types of automobile locks, and a large and varied line of parts for typewriters, washing machines, optical instruments, etc. A careful investigation of the company's business has been made by men well versed in such matters and it is generally conceded by them th;.t the Casey-Hudson Co. is in excellent condition. A detail of the removel of the plant to Chelsea will be the floating of a $300,000 bond issue, the assets being conservatively estimated at four times that amount, and a prominent Detroit bond house has agreed to handle the entire issue. The reason the Casey-Hudson Co. is leaving Chicago is largely econo nic-— they are now paying over $40,000 rental for their factory building* ai.d are located in two buildings several Mocks apart. Location in Chelsea mcr.ns a saving of $25,000 a year in rente alone aside from other advantage* res ;lting from the location of the plant in one large three story, modern f; ctory building such as the No. 8 unit < f the Lewis plant. The moving of the plant to Chelsea will be started just as soon as the bond issue is voted and incidental fin ncial details can be arranged.—Tribune rare csaies ana acrrrce W. H.
