The move coming at the climax of military operations considered by the Carranza government so serious that it has asked the United States for permission to move troops through Texas, New Mexico and Arizona is regarded here as reflecting a situation more serious in Mexico than any since the triumph of Carranza forces over Villa three years ago. Viewed in connection with the activities of the Felicista forces in southern Mexico, the situation is regarded as full of possibilities.

Barnes, a wealthy young New Yorker, on a walking trip In New England near the Canadian border, is given a lift In an automobile fty a mysterious a n d attractive girl bound for a house called Green Fancy. At Hart's tavern Barnes finds a stranded troupe of "barn-storming" actors, of which Lyndon Rushcroft Is the Jstaf and "Miss Thackeray" the leading lady. They are doing hotel work for their board. He learns Green Fancy la a hou&e of mystery. That night two mounted men leave the tavern under odd circumstances. One Is shot dead near b y ; the other Is brought back dying. The sheriff detains Barnes. Green Fancy guests appear and say the mystery does not concern Green Fancy, CHAPTER V—Continued. The two men looked at him, plainly perplexed. "When was all this?" inquired De Soto. "Early last evening. He, picked np your latest guest at the corners, and she insisted in his driving me to the tavern before the storm broke. I've been terribly anxious about her. She cnust have been caught out in all that mean. I shall be delighted to join you. "Twelve-thirty, did you say?" "It would give me great pleasure If your daughter would also grace the festal board. I think It Is too bad that she has to go about in t h e gown she wears, Mr. Rushcroft," said Barnes. "She's much too splendid for that. I have a proposition Td like to make to you later on. I cannot make It* however, without consulting Miss Thackeray's feelings." "My dear fellow!" beamed Rushcroft, seizing the other's hand." "One frequently reads in books about It coming like this, at first sight, but, damme, I never dreamed that it ever realiy happened. Count on m e ! She ought to leave the stage, the dear child. No more fitted to it than an Easter lily. Her place Is In the home, the—" "Good Lord, I am not thinking of—n And Barnes, aghast, stopped before blurting out the words that leaped to his lips. "I mean to say this is a proposition that may also affect your excellent companions. Bacon and Dillingford, ns weH as yourself." At twelve-thirty sharp Barnes came down from his room freshly shaved and brushed, to find not only Mr. Rushcroft and Miss Thackeray awaiting him In the office, but the Messrs. Dilllngford and Bacon as well. "I took the liberty, old fellow," said Rushcroft. addressing Barnes, "of asking my excellent co-workers to Join us in our repast." "Delighted to have you wfth us, gentlemen." said Barnes affably. The sole topic of conversation for ^ f e i t i ^ . . h a l f hour was the mysterious " tr'*™**- -»**>;?****?-•'- s**"-^- -*r/:jE*5Cs;i^ - " ' - i ^ ^ ^ - ' V ^ J - V - ^ . - i ^ i - ^ t ^ i "You may believe It," he assured her. "It Isn't the usual course," she said quietly, and her face brightened. "You are not like moat men, Mr. Barnes." "My dear child," said Rushcroft "you must leave this matter to our friend and me. I fancy I know vu honest man when I see him. My deti fellow, fortune is but temporarily frowning upon me. In a few weeks I shall be on my feet again, zipping along on the crest of the wave. I dare say I can return tjie money to you in a month or six weeks. If—" "Oh, father!" cried Miss Thackeray. "We'll make it six months, and I'll pay any rate of interest you desire. Six per cent, eight per cent, ten per—" "Six per cent, sir, and we will make it a year from date." "Agreed. Get up and dance for us. Dilly! We shall be in New York tomorrow!" % "You forget the dictatorial sheriff, Mr. Rushcroft," saidj Barnes. "The varlet!" barked Mr. Rushcroft. It was arranged that Dlllingford and Bacon were to go to HornvHle in a hired motor that afternoon, secure the judgment, pay the costs, and attend to the removal of the personal belongings of the stranded quartette from the hotel to Hart's Tavern. The younger actors stoutly refused to accept Barnes' offer to pay their board while at the Tavern. That, they declared, would be charity, and they preferred his friendship and his respect to anything of that sort. Miss ThackerayT however, was to be immediately relieved of her position as chamber- - ^ . - ¾ ^ ¾ ^ ¾ ¾ ¾ ^ ^ ••Wei!,. f t t .i^iienuouai> n u n e O , said Barnes slowly. "And so am I," said O'Dovvd with conviction. "I have seen the heroine of our busted romance. She's a goodlooking girl. * I'm not surprised chut -she kept her veil down, if you were to leave It to me, though, I'd s«y that it's a sin to carry discretion go far as all that. You see what I mean, don't you?" Ills rich laugh came over the wire. "Perfectly. Thank you for IPMOK me know. My mind Is at rest. Goodby." As he hung up the receiver he said to himself. "You are a most affable, convincing chap, Mr. O'Dowd. hut I don't believe a word you say. That woman Is no lady's maid, and you've known ail the time that she was there." At four o'clock he set out alone for a tramp up the mountain road in which the two men had been *hot down. His mind was quite clear. Roon and Paul were not ordinary robbers. They were, no doubt, honest men. H e would h a r e said that they were thieves bent on burglarizing Green Fancy were it not for the disclosures of Miss Thackeray and the very convincing proof that they were not shot by the same man. It was not beyond reason—Indeed, it was quite probable-^that they were trying to cross the border; In that event t t . ^ r »-eal operations would be confined to the Canadian side of the line. He could not free himself of the suspicion that Green Fancy possessed the key to the situation. Roon and his companion could not have had the slightest interest in his movements up to the instant he -encountered the young woman at the crossroads. His busy brain suddenly suffeied the shock of a distloct conclusion. Was sh^r a fellow conspirator? Was she the inside worker at Green Fancy in a wcUlaid plan to rifle the place? Could it be possible that she was the confederate of these painstaking agents who lurked with sinister patience outside the very gates of the place called Green Fancy? His ramble carried him far beyond the spot where Roon's body was found and where young Conley hud come upon the tethered horses. His eager, Weak From Pain Mrs. Gibbert Was in Misery, But Doan's Brought Her Splendid Health. "About 15 years ago my/kidneys were in bad condition," says Mrs. Lucy Gibbert, 15310 Columbia Ave., Harvey, 111. "There was a constant, dull, bearingdo wu pain in the small of my back.

Barnes stared. "Do you mean to Bay that she didn't get there, after all?" "She? A woman, was It?" demanded O'Dowd. "Bedad, If she said she was coming to Green Fancy she was spoofing you. Are yon sure it was old Peter who gave you that Jolly ride?" "No, I am not sure," said Barnes uneasily. "She was afoot, having walked from the station below. I met her at the corners and she asked me If 1 knew how far it was to Green Fancy, or something like that. Said she was going there. Then along came the automobile, rattling down this very road—an ancient Panhard driven by an old codger. She seemed to think It was all right to hop In and trust herself to him, .although she'd never seen hfm before." "The antique Panhard fits In all right," said O'Dowd, "but I'm hanged if the woman fits at all. No such person arrived at Green Fancy last night" "Did you get a square look at the driver's face?" demanded De Soto.

Mr. Rushcroft was furious when he arose at eleven o'clock on the morning after the double murder, having slept like a top through all of the commotion.

One would have thought, to hear the star's indignant lamentations, that he and his party were in a position to depart when they pleased. It would have been difficult to Imagine that he was not actually rolling In money Instead of being absolutely penniless. Barnes had been immersed In his own thoughts for «ome time. A slight frown, ns of reflection, darkened his eyes. Suddenly—perhaps impolitely— he interrupted Mr. Rushcroft'a flow of eloquence, "Have you any objection Mr. Rushcroft, to a more or less pergonal question concerning your own private—er— misfortunes?" be asked, leaning forward. For a moment one could have heard a pin drop. Mr. Rushcroft evidently held his breath. There could be no mistake about that.

"I am prepared and willing to advance this amount^ Mr. Rushcroft, and to take your personal note as security." Rushcroft leaned back In his chair and stuck his thumbs la the annholes of his vest He displayed no undue elation. Instead he affected profound calculations. His daughter shot a swift searching look a t the would-be Samaritan. There was a heightened color in her cheeks. "Moreover, I shall be happy tp increase the amount of the loan sufficiently to cover your return at once to Ji'ew York, if you so desire—by train." Barnes smiled as he added the last two words.

"I called you up to relieve your mind regarding the young woman who came last night" he said. "Yon observe that I say 'came.' She's quite all right, safe and sound, and no cause for uneasiness. I thought yon meant that she was coming here as a guest, and so I made the very natural mistake of saying she hadn't come at all, at all. The young woman In question Is Mrs. Van Dyke's maid. B u t bless me soul, how was I to know she was even in existence, much less expected by train or motor or Shanks' mare? Well, she's here, so there's the end of our mystery." Barnes was slow in replying. He was doubting his own ears. It was not conceivable that an ordinary—or even an extraordinary—lady's maid could have possessed the exquisite voice and manner of his chance acquaintance of the day before, or the temerity to order that sour-faced chauffeur about as if— The chauffeur I "But I thought you said that Mr. Curtis' chauffeur was moon-faced and—* "He is, bedad.'* broke i n Mr. O'Dowd, chuckling.

Mountain ivy literally enveloped I t Exposed sections of the house were painted green; the doors were green: the leafy porches and their columns, the forest.

THIN PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE PHOSPHATE Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate to Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and to Increase Strength, Vigor and Nerve Force. Judging from the countless preparations and treatments which are continually being advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, developing arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft curved lines of health ancTbeauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness. Thinness and weakness are often due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more phosphate than is contained in modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this deficiency so well as the organic phosphate known among druggists as bitro-phospnate, which is Inexpensive and I s sold by most alt dt ugjrtata under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back. By feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food elements, bitropbosuhate should produce a welcome transformation in the appearance; the increase In weight frequently being astonishing. ' Increase In weight also carries with it a general Improvement in the health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of energy, which nearly always accompany excessive thinness, should disappear, dull eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect health. CAUTION: — Although bltro-phosphate Is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness, sleeplessness and general weakness, it should not, owing to its tendency to increase weight, be used by anyone who does not desire to put on flesh.

Pinckney, Livingston County, Michigan, Thursday J u n e T.2 , 1919 No. 34 THE SENIOR PLAY A n exceptionally fine entertaitment. Result of hard work and good instruction. i For perhaps the first time in the history of the Pinckney High School t h e annual dramatic event was given by a company selected entirely from members of the graduating class. This year the management did not call on norf-members for assistance in the production of "Deacon Dubbs" which was given at the Opera House Friday evening to a literally crowded house—many standing up during the entire performance. The play itself is a vehicle for comedians, with enough plot, and emotional lines to serve as a fitting background to emphasize the work of the delineators of both high and low comedy. To say the lar ?e audience was well pleased with the play and the efforts of the actors to entertain is only stating the case mildly. Everyone was more than satisfied and the many smiles to be seen on the faces of the patrons and the hearty laughs and boisterous hilarity enjoyed by both old and young throughout the whole evening was evidence of the appreciation of those* in the cast and the director, Prof. Doyle. Francis MeCluakey, Roy Campbell, Soldier Letter Russia, March 1/i, 191!) My Dear Parents: It has been impossible for me to write you, for we have been on the firing lines. We sure had a battle a few days ago but all^came out of it without a scratch—we were a lucky bunch. I don't think the^re will be much more fighting as it will thaw soon and be to soft to get around. You must not blame me for not writing oftener. If you only knew the circumstances here on the line you would wonder bow I find time to write a t all and am not sure when I will g e t a chance to mail this one. We have lots of snow and ice here> but the noise of the1 "big s i x " guns make me think of the Fourth of July. March 30. 1919. We have been on the front lines three weeks but are now back for a five days | rest. But it don't seem much like a j r^st as we are very busy all the time, j But it sure does seem good to g e t out of hearing of the big guns. This is a fine day, the snow is three - feet deep and it hasn't started tc thaw - yet, but 1 think it soon will start as it H very much warmer. Why we are over here 1 don't know and when we are coming home 1 can't hope to be going horr.e CHAMPIONSHIP GAME POSTPONED The ball game which was to have bee*n played Wednesday between Pinckney and Howell was postponed on account of raiR and will be played next Tuesday, May 17. As this game is for the county championship the teams are both on their mettle and will put forth every effort to win this game. Howell plays Lansing tomorrow and if the team from the county seat wins the state title lies between Pinckney and Howell. Let everyone pull to bring the High School Championship to Pinckney.

BREAD Tally One For Livingston The following article from the Democrat is complimentary to our Probate Judge. That Livingston County has a good man as Judge of Probate in the person of Judge Eugene A. Stowe, all well After many weoks of delay in shipment of his large bake oven and other causes, Mr. H. J. Norton, Pinckney's commercial baker, announces that his i. stablishment is now ready to supply the community with first class bread.

In June 1918 the question of laying a county drain, known as the Lowe Laket o Drain,Itratersed the counties of WaahenawLivingston and Inghim, came on for hearing before the probate judge of the three counties a t Mason. The question before the three judges then sitting was, whether a commission of three disinterested persona from each county, or a jury of twelve men from ej.ch county should say whether or not the drain should be laid. The probate judges of Washenaw and Ingham couuties held to the theory that three ilisinterested persons from each county should decide whether or not the drain ahould be laid. Judge Eugene A. Stowe of Livingston County held that a jury of twelve disinterested persons from each of of the counties and stood by it. Bo there it stood, two against one, but . one has finally won out, and the Livingston county probate judge, Eugene A. wStowe, is the one. The case was finally appealed to the supreme court by mandamus proceedings. And what is the result? Last week the higner court decided the case ia favor of Judge Eugene A. Stow* and against the probate judges of Washtenaw and Ingham counties. _Naturally Judge Stowe has a right to fe«l* htffel} elated over the outcome.

THE CUT DIRECT Synopsis,—Thomas K. Barnes, a wealthy young New Yorker, on a walking trip In New England near t h e Canadian border, i* given a lift in an automobile by a mysterious and attractive girl bound for a house called Green Fancy. At H a r t ' s tavern Barnes find* a stranded troupe of "barn-stortning" actors, of which Lyridon Rushcroft Is the star and "Miss T h a c k e r a y " the leading lady. They are doing hotel work for their board. He learns Green Fancy is a house of mystery. T h a t night two mounted men leave the tavern under,/ odd circumstances. One Is shot dead near b y ; the other is brought back dying. Karnes comes under suspicion. He stays to help clear up the mystery. O'Dowd of Green Fancy says "that that pla'ce of mystery is not concerned in any way. Barnes gets^ into the Green Fancy grouhc'n.nnd sees the mysterious girl. he likes me, though God knows why, unless It may he t h a t I once did tits son a good turn in London." "Sufficient excuse for reparation, I should say," smiled Barnes. "I introduced the lad to me only sister," said O'Dowd, "and she kept him happy for the next ten years. No doubt I also provided Mr. Curtis with three grandchildren he might never have had but for my graciousness." A look of distress came into his merry eyes. "By Jove, I'd like nothing better than to ask you in to have a dish of tea—it's teatime, I'm sure—but I'd no more think of doing it than I'd consider cutting off me head. He doesn't like' strangers. H e — " "My dear fellow, don't distress yourself," cried Barnes heartily. "There isn't the least reason in the world why—" "You see, the poor old chap asks us up here once or twice a year—that is to say, De Soto and me—to keep his sister from tilling the house up with men he can't endure. So long as we occupy the only available rooms, he argues, she can't stuff them full of objectionables. Twice a year she -comes for a month, in the late fall and early spring." "Why does lie continue to live in time you plan to pay UB a visit, telephone in advance.

Good day to ye," and he shook hands with the departing trespasser. "Takln' a walk?" was the landlord's greeting as Barnes mounted the tavern steps at dusk. "Going over the grounds of last night's affair," responded Barnes, pausing As he entered t h e door he was acutely aware of an intense stare leveled at him from behind by the landlord of H a r t ' s Tavern. Half way up the stairway he stopped short and with difficulty repressed the exclamation t h a t rose to his lius. He had recalled a significant incident of the night before. Almost immediately after the d e p a r t u r e of Roon and Paul from the Tavern P u t n a m J o n e s h a d made h i s way to the telephone behind the desk and had called a number in a loud, brisk voice, but the subsequent conversation was carried on in subdued tones, attended by haste and occasional fur'Jve glances in the direction of the taproom. Upon reaching his room Barnes permitted the suppressed emotion to escape his lips in the shape of a soft whistle, which if It could have been translated into words would have said : "By Gad, why haven't I thought of it before? He sent out t h e \ v a r n i n g that Roon and Paul were on the waj^! And I'd like to bet my last dollar t h a t someone at Green Fancy had the other end of the wire." Mr. Rushcroft was giving Hamlet's address to the players, in the taproom when Barnes came downstairs at nine o'clock. A small, dark man who sat alone at ! a table in the corner caught Barnes' eye and smiled almost 'mournfully. i He was undoubtedly a s t r a n g e r ; his J action was-meant to convey to Barnes j the information that he too was from { a distaut-and sophisticated community | and that a bond of sympathy existed ! between them. i Putnam Jones spoke suddenly at !

He would have been willing to go before a Jury and swear that It was the same en: that had deposited him at H a r t ' s l a v e m the day before. Having guessed correctly in the one instance he allowed himself another and even bolder guess—the little book agent had eiTher received a message from or delivered one to the occupant or driver of the car from Green Fancy CHAPTRR V I I I . A Note, Some Fancier and an Expedt tion in Quest of Facts. He started upstairs, his mind full of the events and conjectures of the day. As he entered the room his eyes fell upon a white envelope at his feet. It had been slipped under the door since he left the room an hour before Terse reminder from the prudent Mr Jones ! His bill for the day ! He picked it up, glanced at the inscription, and at once altered his opinion. His full name was there in the handwrltine of a woman. F o r a moment he was puzzled; then he thought of Mis* Thackeray. A note of thanks, no doubt unpleasantly fulsorn^e! Vagueiy annoyed, he ripped open the envelope and read : "In case I do not have the opportunity to speak with you tonight, this is to let you know that the littl*) man who says he is a book agent was in your room for three-quarters of on hour while you were away this afternoon. You'd better see if anything If missing. M. T." | He made a hasty but careful exami- ' nation of his effects.

If • the little book agent spent ihree-qunr- 'ers of an hour in the room he man- ! aged most effectually to cover up all ! traces of his visit. Barnes did not go to sleep until Ions after midnight.

He had made sufficient money to see him and his wife through their remaining days. "But there were the boys," said Mrs. Marcy, "and six of them, too—some of the six not yet back from 'overseas.'

"Yes, t h a t is all true," replied this estimable lady, "but the land is so high-priced we couldn't afford to buy there, although worth every cent asked for it. You see we have six boys, and they a r e good one, too." So, one day, three years ago, Mr. and Mrs. Marcy rigged up the automobile for a touring trip. They wanted to investigate for the boys' benefit. T h e journey lasted for a year. It took them through Arizona with its varied scenery, its climatic and agricultural a t t r a c t i o n s ; idto the canyons of Colorado they went, and the agricultural possibilities there aroused a large amount of interest.

She was quite u n a w a r e of his pres- MTr-p, and yet he was directly in her path, though some distance away. Her head was bent ; her mien was thoughtful, her stride slow and aimless. She was slender, graceful and evidently quite tall, although she seemed a pigmy among the towering giants that attended her stroll: Her hands were thrust deep into the pocket of a white duck skirt. A glance revealed white shoes and trim ankles In blue. She wore no hat. Her hair was like spun gold, thick, wavy and shimmering 1n the subdued l i g h t Suddenly she stopped and looked up.

For a second or two he held his breath, stunned by the amazing loveliness that was revealed to him. Then she discovered him standing there. In a flash he realized that he was face to face with the s t r a n g e r of the day before. H e took two or three impulsive steps forward, his hand going to his hat—and then halted.

"Who do you want to see?" inqu'red t h e m a n with the spade. Before B a r n e s could reply a hearty voice accosted him from behind. He whirled and saw O'Dowd approaching. not twenty yards away. The Irishm a n ' s face was aglow with pleasure. "I knew I couldn't be mistaken in the shape of you," he cried, advancing with outstretched hand. "You've got the breadth of a dockhand in j-our shoulders and the trlmness of a prize fighter in your wntst." They 6hook hands. "I f^ar I am trespassing," said Barnes. His glance w e n t . o t e r his shoulder as he spoke. The man with the spade had been swallowed i»frfry th« e * r t h t 11« coul4~»ot h a v e vanished more quickly In any other way.

There was no si^n of the blue and white and the spun gold that still defied exclusion from his mind's eye. He had not recovered from the thrall into which the vision of loveliness plunged him.

He sold tr.e a set of Dickens when he was here last time, about six weeks ago. A year's subscription to two magazines tbrowed in. By gosh, these book agents are slick ones." "He's a shrewd-looking chap." commented Barnes. "Says he won't be satisfied till he's made this section of the country the most cultured, refined spot in the United States," said Jones dolefully. "Excuse me. There goes the telephone. Maybe its news from the sheriff." With the spasmodic tinkling of the telephone bell the book agent arose and made his way to the little office. Barnes glanced over his shoulder a moment later and saw him studying the register. The poise of his sleek head, however, suggested a listening attitude. Putnam Jones, not four feet away, was speaking into the telephone receiver. As the receiver was restored to its hook Barnes turned again. Jones and the book agent were examining the register, their heads almost meeting from opposite sides of loud tone that Tie guessed He'CPSSop out and get a bit of fresh air before turning in.

" P a r t y trying to make Hornvllle tonight," he announced casually. "Well, good night. See you in the morning." Barnes was not In a position to doubt the fellow's word, for the car unmistakably had gone on toward Hornvllle.

Women's complaints often prove t o be nothing else but kidney trouble, o r t h e result of kidney or bladder di-sease. If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased. You may suffer pain in the back, headache and loss of ambition. Poor health makes you nervous, irritable and may be despondent; it makes any one so. But hundreds of women claim t h a t I>r. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved t o be just the remedy needed t o overcome such conditions. Many tend f o r ' a sample bottle to see "what Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder medicine, will do for them. By enclosing ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Rin*hamtoB. N , Y „ you may receive sample size bottle by Parcel Post.

The attempted frauds are said to have been national in plan, but Arthur L.

Thirty million dollars worth of steel, copper, iron and other unmanufactured war materials is held for sale in Detroit factories, and it was for this stake, it is claimed, t l m the conspirators were playing. The particular contract for which the arrests are made involved about $3CM}JJOO worth of steel held in a half-dozen Detroit and Upper Michigan plants. Raw materials owned by the Government in the k) munitions districts of the country is said to be worth between $2511.000,01.10 and $r><>0,000,000.

You asked me for some recollections of t h e early times, but my musings seem to have r u n to more to memories of the early people. I have found, too, t h a t in ord»jr to make these annals worthy of rredence ic has been necessary for me to consult the early records and to converge with the descendants of some of the earliest settlers, to obtain dates and names which a r e not definitely fixed in my meMOry. I have mentioned S i n ford Marble as t h e first settler ot Pinckney and the only person living there when my l a t h e r came in ]s.","i.

My feet became swollen and I had a time of it getting on my shoes. "My back hurt right over my kidneys. Nights I did nothing but toes about. It was just as though a knife were thrust into my back.

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never Suspect It Applicants for Insurance Often Rejected. Judging from reports from druggists who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is goon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview of the subject, made the astonishing statement that one reason why so manv applicants fur insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is . so nnmraon to the American people, and the l^rge majority of those whose applications are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. !t is on sale at all drug stores in bottjes of two sizes, medium and large. Hnwever. if you wish first to test this erent preparation send ten cents to Dr,, Judging- from the countless preparation! and treatments which are continually being advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, developing arms, neck and bust, and* replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft curved lines of health and beauty there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness. Thinness and weakness are often due to starved nerves. Our bodies need mora phosphate than Is contained in modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this deficiency so well as the organic phosphate known among druggists as bitro-phosphat«, which is inexpensive and Is sold by most all druggists under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back. By feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food elements, bltrophosphate should produce a welcome transformation in the appearance; the lacrease In weight frequently being astonishing. Increase In weight also carries with it a general improvement In the health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of energy, which nearly always accompany excessive thinness, should disappear, dull eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect health. -CAUTION: — Although bltro-phosphate le unsurpassed for relieving nervousness sleeplessness and general weakness, it should not, owing to its tendency to increase wfclght, be used by anyone Who does not desire to put on flesh.

At Hart's tavern Barnes flnd-s a stranded troupe of "barn-storming" actors, of which Lyndon Rushcroft Is the star and "Miss Thackeray" the leading ludy. They are doing hotel work for their board. He learns Green Fancy Is a house of mystery. That night two mounted men leave the tavern under odd circumstances. One Is brought back dying. Barnes comes under suspicion. He stays to help clear up the mystery. O'Dovvd of Green Fancy says that that place of mystery Is not concerned In any way. Barnes gets into the Green Fancy grounds and sees the mysterious girl. She gives him the cut direct and O'Dowd politely ejects him from the grounds. Enter another man of mystery, Mr. Sprouse, "book agent." v said. I hereby officially present the result of subsequent deliberation. Mr. Barnes Is Invited to dine with us tonight." , Barnes* heart was still pounding rapidly as he made the rueful admission that he "didn't have^ a thing to wear." He couldn't think of accepting the gracious Invitation— "If they'll tafce me as I am," began Barnes, doubtfully. "I say." called out O'Dowd to the sheriff, who was gazing longingly at the .horses tethered at the bottom of the slope, "would ye mind leading Mr. Barnes' nag back to the Tavern? He Is stopping to dinner. And, while I think of It, are you satisfied. Mr. Sheriff, with the day's work? If not you will be welcome again at any time if ye'll only telephone a half minute In advance." To Barnes he said : "We'll send you down in the automobile tonight, provided it has survived the day. We're expecting the poor thing to die in its tracks at almost any instant." *v Ten minutes later Barnes passed through the portals of Green Fancy. v n « n c n v m — c o n t i n u e d .

You a r e the magic gentleman who sprang like a mushroom out of the earth early yesterday afternoon." "And frightened you," he said; "whereupon you vanished like the mushroom that Is gobbled up by the predatory glutton." He had thrilled at the sound of her voice. It was the low, deliberate voice of The woman of the crossroads, and, as before, he caught the almost imperceptible accent. The red gleam from t h e blazing logs fell upon her shining hair; It glistened like gold. She wore a simple evening gown of white, softened over the shoulders and neck with a fall of rare Valenciennes lace. There was no jewelry—not even a ring on her slender, tapering lingers. Mrs. Collier, the hostess, was ait elderly, heavy-featured woman, decidedly overdressed. Mrs. Van Dyke, her daughter, was a woman of thirty, tall, dark and handsome In a bold, dashing sort of way. The lackadaisical gentleman with the mustache turned out to be her husband. "My brother is unable to be with us tonight, Mr. Barnes," explained Mrs. Collier. "Mr. O'Dowd may have told you that he Is an invalid. Quite rarely Is he well enough to leave hi« significant, that there should be ao many men at Green Fancy. Much to his disappointment he was not placed near Miss Cameron at table. Indeed she was seated as far away from him as possible. There was a pluce set between him and De Soto. for symmetry's sake, Barnes concluded. In this he was mistaken; they had barely seated themselves when Mrs. Collier remarked: "Mr. Curtis' secretary usually joins us here for coffee. He has his dinner with my brother, and then, poor man, comes in for a brief period of relaxation. When my brother is in one of his bad spells poor Mr. Loeb doesn't have much time to himself." Loeb, the private secretary, came In for coffee. He was u ftill. spare man of thirty, pallidly handsome, with dark, studious eyes and features of an unmistakably Hebraic cast, as his name might have foretold. His teeth were marvelously white and his slow smile attractive. More than once during the hour that Loeb spent with thorn Barnes formed and dismissed M stubborn ever-recurring opinion that the man was not a Jew. Certainly he wns not an A ^ W a n Jew. His voice, his manner of spt«?ch, his every action stamped him as one born and bred In a land far from Broadway and Its counterparts.

Miss Cameron did not take „n<i. O'Dowd ft : j « f i ^ « me j e w 01 me carnal unent.

It Is safe to assume that he was looking Intently ahead, trying to make out the crossing. He was not shot from the side of the road, gentlemen, but from the middle of it. The bullet came from a point almost directly in front of him, and not from Mr. Curtis' property here to the left or Mr. Conley's on the right. The chances are that Paul did not accompany Boon to the meeting place up the road. He remained near the horses. That's how he managed to eet away so quickly. It remained for the man at the crossroads to settle with him. But we're wasting time with all this twaddle of mine. Let us be moving. There is one point on which we must .ill agree.

In the course of time the party, traversing the ground contiguous to the public road, cam^ within sight of the green dwelling among the tree*. Barnes' interest revived.

The entrance hall and the living room into which he was conducted by the two men were singularly like others that he had seen. The latter, for example. was of ordinary dimensions, furnished with a thought for comfort rnther than elegance or even good taste. The couches and chairs were low and deep and comfortable, as If Intended for men only, and they were covered with rich, gay materials; the hangings at the windows were of deep blue and gold; the walls an unobtrusive cream color, almost literally thatched with etchings. The stairs were thickly carpeted. At the top his guide turned to the left and led the way down a long corridor. They passed at least four doors before O'Dowd stopped and threw open the fifth on that side of the hall. There were still two more doors beyond. "Suggests a hotel, doesn't it?" said the Irishmen, standing , aside for Barnes to enter. "All of the sleeping apartments are on this fl|or, and the baths and boudoirs and what not.

"You didn't mention him when you telephoned that you were personally conducting a sightseeing party. I tried to catch you afterward on the telephone, but you had left the Tavern. Mrs. Collier wanted me to ask you to capture Mr. Barnes for dinner tonight." "Mrs. Collier is the sister of Mr. Curtis," explained O'Dowd. Then he turned upon De Soto Incredulously. "For the love of P a t " he cried, "what's eotne over them? Why, I made so bold as to suggest last night that you were a chap worth cultivating, Barnes —and that you wouldn't be long In the neighborhood—but to save your feelings I'll not repeat what they said, the two of them.

He mode short work of "doing" the visitor; barely fifteen minutes elapsed before O'Dowd's return. Presently they went downstairs together. Lamps had been lighted, many of thr»m. throughout the house. A fire crackled in the cavernous fireplace at the end of the living room and groaped about Its cheerful, grateful blaze were the ladies of Green Fancy. The girl of his thoughts was there, standing slightly aloof from the others, bnt evidently amused by the tale with which De Soto was regaling them. She was smiling; Barnea saw -the- sapphire lights sparkling in her eyes and experienced a sensation that was wofully akin to confusion. But everything went off quite naturally. He favored Miss Cameron with an uncommonly self-possessed smile *s she gave her hand to^him, and she In turn responded with one\ faintly suggestive of tolerance, although it certainly would have been recorded by a lest sensitive person than Barnes as -ripptnf." .

The table In the Fpaclous dining room was one of those long, narrow Italian boards, unmistakably antique and equally rare. Sixteen or eighteen people could have been seated without crowding, and when the seven took their places wide Intervals separated them. No effort had been made by the hostess to bring her guests close together, as might have be\n done by using one end or the center of the table. The serving plates were of silver. Especially beautiful were the long-stemmed water goblets and the graceful champagne glasses. They were blue and white and of a design and quality no longer obtainable except at great cost. The esthetic Barnes was not slow to appreciate the rarity of the glassware and the chaste beauty of the serving plates. The man Nicholas was evidently the butler, despite his Seventh avenue manner. He was assisted in serving by two stalwart and amazingly clumsy footmen, of similar Ilk and nationality. On seeing these additional men servants Barnes began figuratively to count on his fingers the retainers he had so far encountered on the place. Already he had seen six. all of them powerful, rugged fellows. It struck him as extraordinary; ant) in a way nity fJir cietacned conversation wirn Miss Cameron. He had listened <o her bright retorts to O'Dowd's sallies, nrn\ marveled at the ease and composure with which she met the witty Irishman on even terms Not until the very close of the evening, and when he had resigned himself to hopelessness, did the opportunity code for him to speak with her alone. She caught his eye, and, to hla amazement, made a slight movement of her head, unobserved by the others:. but curiously Imperative to him. Thero wns no mistaking the meaning of tho direct, intense look that she gave him She was appealing to him as J friend—as one on whom she could depend ! The spirit of chivalry took possession of him. His blood leaped to the call. She needed him and he would not fait her. And it was with difficulty that he contrived to hide the exaltation that might have ruined everything ! While he waR trying to Invent a pretext for drawing her apart from tho others she calmly ordered Van Dyke to relinquish his place on the CUUCFbeside her to Barnes. < . ~ . .,, ^ ,: • ; ? , . , . . r . _ V . - - : - • * * " ' _ » .,. / ^f j • i - j i.

That's another way of telling you, Barnes, that she'll absorb you entirely." For a few minutes she chlded him for his unseemly aversion. He was beginning to think that he had been mistaken In her motive, and that after all she was merely satisfying her van Ity. Suddenly, and as she smiled fct< his eyes, she said, lowering her volcr slightly: "Do not appear surprised at any thing I may say to you.

Tne Class Poem by Madeline* Bow- BURGLARY AT STOCKBRIDGE Thursday night June I9th burglars entered the well known W. 'J. Dancer and Co. department store at Stockbridge and made'a successful get-away with nearly a hundred men's and young men's fine suits and a large number of silk shirts and fine neckties. A large number of suits and quantitit s of other merchandise were collected and ready for transportation but the thieves were evidently nervous and left in haste as these bundles were left. Some shirts bundled in a leather motor coat were found next morning about a half block away from the store. Mrs. Cantrell who lives in the south edge of Stockbridge saw two cars without lignts go past her home speeding about three a. m. It is supposed these cars contained the burglars with their plunder and were headed for either Detroit or Toledo. Dancer and Company have offered a reward of $200 for any information leading to the conviction of the burglary and a reward of $100 for the return of the goods. The firm have done some of its characteristic tall hustling since their loss. Immediatly after ascertaining the amount and quality of the stolen goods orders were wired to manufacturers and express shipments soon began to arrive. So that in a remarkably short time business was going on in the usual manner. garments, cleaning up at the end oi each season regardless of cost, the loas, , Livingston County Honor Roll to be Valuable Work Everyone who has seen the prospectus of the Livingston County Honor Roll, which is to be published by the Brighton Argus, has pronounced it a grand work, one that will be prised beyond the value of money in years to come.

The more serious literary themes were delivered by Roy Campbell, Lawrence Stackable, and Walter Mercer, with Zita Harris as valedictorian. it doee not seem possible that only four years of scientific and literary study would produce in such young minds the comprehension of the subjects so well displayed by these .students. If they adtan.ce, relatively as far in the next four years to what heights may they not ascend? The mind and vocabulary of a "hick" newspaper " d u b " become inadequate and in groping for words to express himself fittingly regarding the future possibilities of these students there is only one word that comes to his assistance -the word so frequently and expressively used by Walter Mowers in "Deacon Dubbs" —"Gosn" ! As he presented their diplomas Prof. Doyle stated it was the beyt class that has graduated under his superintendence.

The truck driver was violently thrown to the ground, sustaining a few slight bruises. He was very fortuna'e to come through the accident without more serious injuries. The truck driver, Mr. Fred, Stanton of Ann Arbor, deserves highest praise for driving his car over >the embankment, thereby risking, his own life in order to avoid colliding with the touring car which carried a full load of passengers. His quick action probably saved lives as the chances for the touring car coming through such a mix-up with a heavy motor truck without haying been completely demolished is slight. The unknown driver of the passenger car witn its cargo of human freight did not even slacken speed to learn whether Mr. S t a n t o n - w h o was then lying J stunned near his overturned car—was dead or alive. One man has already lost his life by going over the embankment at "Dead Man's Curve." Several persons have been injured and cars and other vehicles have beer damaged.

One of the most valuable assets ln New South Wales is its Mountain country, which extends in a broad belt running North and South right through the State with an elevation varying from a few hundred feet on the foothills to several thuusaud feet on the higher ranges. Included in this area is a considerable extent of tableland with an English climate, portions of which are already occupied by settlers engaged In farming and pastoral pursuits, but the Immense extent of broken country embraced in the Mountain area is practically unoccupied. The soil varies from rich volcanic, covered with dense, semi-tropical vegetation, to sandstone (overlying coal measure*) timt require n ctose rndtt*- try to yield a subsistence by ordinary methods of cultivation, but even in the poorest forest tracts are Innumerable sites where homes may be imule within easy distance of the seaboard amidst the wholesomest, healthiest and most Independent conditions to be found anywhere on earth. On such settlements honey, timber and dried fruits are the principal sources of income. Those not familiar wlih this Mountain region can form QO idea of the enormous quantities of honey produced by the native trees and flowering shrubs every year. Occasionally the yield takes the form of "manna" or sweet sap exuding from small punctures made in the bark of the trees by the sap-feeding cicada. This form of honey production, however, is the exception and not the rule. The usual thing Is for the honey to be secreted In the form of nectar in the Mowers — the members of the Eucalyptus fam- --^ :::• • 'i**'^ "nr> in the center of ed. When the Mountain ion.-.., ^. white with bloom, the English bees Utnt have gone within the bush and can obtain from them sufficient stock to start an apiary. Among the honey-producing trees of New South Wales the Eucalyptus family easily take first place, both in respect to the number of species and to the quantity of honey produced, ami it is an absolute fallacy that the flavor of the honey has u eucalyptus flavor. The flavor resides lu the leaves and bark, but never in the honey secreted in the flowers, nor in the manna secretions. From the numerous members of the Eucalyptus family the flavors and types of honey are almost us numerous as the trees that produce them, and they are all palatable and good. The various trees have their set times for coming Into bloom, different varieties blooming at intervals right throughout the year. The honey from those that bloom In the winter and spring is mainly consumed by the bees themselves in the rearing of the spring broods before swarming time. The frrent bulk of the wirplu* bonoy obtained comes from a comparatively small number of varieties. Where the sources of honey supply are so numerous it would be difficult to describe every honey-producing tree in the Mountain area, but it may be said that the most important are the box family found chiefly on the West-' ern slopes ami plains. Of these the white and yellow box are the most important. The honey from the white box Is water white in color, clear and limpid, with the fine flavor characteristic of the box family in its most delicate form. The honey from this tree is* always sure of a market in Australia. Unlike nearly all pure honeys it does not granulate, and this peculiarity makes it popular with the bottling firms, as it seldom requires to be melted before being bottled. The honey from the "yellow box has the characteristic flavor common to ihe box family, but in color it is a rich golden tiitf. and like the white box honey, it retains its liquid form .': . - "-wi'iT-.ihlc t i m e . the most widely distrnniteu aim t u n - able of ihe mountain honey-producing trees. It blooms in Autumn, in Fehruernl bloom th'e tree* are a beautiful sight, the mountains for miles appearing one mxuw of white-topped trees, while the air Is laden with the rich honey perfume and full of the din of parrots and the steady jtoar of excited bees tumbling over each other in their eagerness to gather J;he rich stores. The honey from the bloodwood is of clear, rich goldec color, and of excellent flavor. Unlike the "box" It granulate* almost at once after extraction into a creamy white crystal, very delicious to thja palate. The wax produced by -the bees from bloodwood honey is also characteristic, being bright yellow in color and unusually pliable, tough and tenacious. As a wax for the fine grades of foundation comb it is without rival and very much ln demand commercially. The gray gum is another splendid honey ylelder. It blooms In January, and the golden honey- It produces is about equal to the bloodwood honey. It crystallizes speedily and is considered very suitable for export, and is a favorite with the apiarist. The Sydney peppermint, the gray ironbark, the white strfngybark, the white bloodwood, the red npple and the vhlte apple are all good honeyproducing mountain trees with different characteristics and of different commercial values, and some of the v honey that Is not suitable for table use owing to the coarseness of Its flavor has been found invaluable In the manufacture of vinegar. The possibilities of honey production are too great to be overlooked, for a man with a small capital will find lb'- industry something that brings in 'mmedlate returns, and many a settler in the Mountain district has made a good living on a poor patch of land by the aid of his bees, while preparing, the way for fruit growing on a large scale,— Adv.

VOTE TO ACCEPT PEACE TERMS National Assembly Immediately Gives New Government Vote of Confidence. Berlin—A new German cabinet has been formed under the premiership of Herr Bauer, formerly minister of labor, with Dr. Herman Mueller the Majority Socialist leader, as minister of foreign affairs. Benxstorff, Deraburg and Brockdorff- Rantzau aH have been swept aside in the reorganization. The only men of international repute who remain in the governing circle are Noske, who stays as minister of defense, and Erzberger, who is minister of finance. The national assembly, Sunday afternoon, by a vote of 237 to 138 decided to sign the peace terms. The assembly also voted confidence in the new government of Herr Bauer, 236 to 89. Sixty-eight members refrained from expressing themselves on the vote of confidence. On the question of signing the treaty, five members of the assembly did not note. Before the vote of confidence was taken, Herr Bauer, the new premier, declared the government would sign the treaty, but without acknowledging responsibility of the German people for the war, and without accepting the obligations contained in Articles 227 to 230, relating to the trial oil die former emperor and txtradition of other German personages.

Rome.—Premier Orlando and his cabinet resigned, on June 19, following an adverse vote against it in the chamber of deputies. The chamber of deputies, had, by a vote of 259 to 78, rejected Premier Orlando's motion in favor of discussing the question of confidence, which related to the foreign policy of the government, in secret session. Premier Orlando had demanded that the chamber meet to hear explanations regarding the foreign policy, and make it a question of confidence in the government. "Remain faithful to our duties toward the Allies," was a passage in the address of Premier Orlando, which turned the tide against the premier commission to investigate the feasibility of a deep water ways project frbm the Great Lakes to the Atlantic ocean.

There was a great tumult and cries of "The Allies have never been faithful to us. Why should we be faithful to them?"

Sealing Voyage Pays Little. The Newfoundland sealing voyage for 1919 closed recently with the smallest catch in recent years. Only ten ships, the smallest fleet since 1870, prosecuted the industry, the crews numbering 1,685 men, and the total catch amounting to 81,293 pelts, valued at $278,145. This gives a decrease In number of 70,148 and in value of $585,- 407, compared with the 1918 voynge. The poor fishing seemed to be due to adverse weather conditions, ice being too closely packed for vessels to navigate properly, and to the fact that the seal were scattered. The price of voting seal pelts was placed at $8 per hundredweight, as against $12 for 1918, and $6.50 to $7 for other qualities as against $9 to $9.50. Old Friendship Sweet.

Washington—Daily conferences are being held by Republican leaders in congTess on ways and means for a national campaign to popularize the League of Nations. While the plans are somewhat nebulous up to date it has been decided to send Senators Borah, Hiram Johnson, James E. Watson, Warren Q. Harding and probably Poindexter and McCormick out for a two-weeks' campaign on. the president's trail to answer his arguments. A plan which Republicans have in mind, and which will be a feature of their responsive campaign against the president, is to send ex-Senator Beveridge, of Indiana, td the Pacific coast and back, making a complete "swing around the circle."

"I'll ride out to the gate with you," as well try to see Napoleon Bonyparte. Didn't you know he was a sick man?" "Certainly. But he isn't so ill that he can't attend to business, is he?" "He sure is. ParyJised, they say." "What has Mr. Loeb against you, if I may ask?" "Well, it's like this. I ain't in the habit o* bein' ordered aroun' as If I was Jest nobody at all, so when he starts In to <*uss me about somethln' a week or so ago, 1 ups ana tells mm I'll smash his head If he don't take it back. He takes It back all right, but the first thing I know I get a calldown from Mrs. Collier. Course I couldn't tell her what I told the sheeny, seeln* as she's a female, so I took It like a lamb. Then they gits a feller up here to wash the car. My gosh, mister, the durned ole rattle-trap ain't wuth a bucket o' water all told. So I sends word In to Mr. Curtis that If she has to be washed, I'll wash her. Then's when 1 hears about the new car. Next day Mrs. CoHler sends fer me an' I go in. She strys she guesses she'll try the new washer on the new machine when It comes, an' if I keer to stay on as washer In his place she'll be glad to have me. I says I'd like to have a word with Mi-. Curtis, if she don't mind, an' she says Mr. Curtis ain't able to see no one. So I <,ruess I'm goin' to be let out." An idea was taking root In Barnes' brain, but it was too soon to consider it fixed. "You say Mr. Loeb is new at his V, • ) " "Well, he's new up aeie. Mi. Curtis was down to New York all last I master of the nouae was me mm. known as Loeb. Through O'Dowd he had leased the property from tbe*wld' owed daughter-in-law, and had established himself there, surrounded by trustworthy henchmen, for the purpose of carrying out some dark und sinister project. * "I suppose Mrs. Collier has spent a great deal of time up here with her brother." "First time she was ever here, so far as I know," said Peter, and Barnei* promptly took up his weaving once more. With one exception, he decided, the entire company at Green Fancy wax Involved In the conspiracy. The exception was M'es Cameron. It was* quite trlear to Vilm that she had been misled or betrayed Into her present position; that a trap had been set for her and she trad walkod Into it blindly, trustingly. This would seem to establish, beyond question, that her capture and detention was vltnl to the interests of the plotters; otherwise she would not have been lured to Green TViTcjr liniier The uiiprebbioi, '^f Rh<* was to find herself among friends and supporters. Supporters! That word started a new train of thought. He could hardly wait for the story that was to fall from her lips. "By the way, Peter, it has Just occurred to me that I may be able to give you a Job in case you are let out by Mr. Curtis. I can't say definitely until I have communicated with my sister, who has a summer home in the Berkshires." "I'll be much obliged, sir. Course I won't say a word. Will I find you at the tavern If I get my walkln' papers soon ?" "Yes. Stop in to see- me tomorrow If you happen to be passing." Rarnes said good night to the man and entered the tavern a few minutes laXer. Putnam Jones was behind the desk and facing him was the little book agent. "Hello, stranger," greeted the hind lord. "Keen sashaying in society, hey? Meet my friend Mr. Sprouse. Mr. Barnes. Slc-oiu, Sprouse! (Jive him thp mH.:cr!c-"' Mr Jones laughed loudly at his own Jest. Sprouse shook hands with his vie- GERMANS SCUTTLE INTERNED FLEET V E S S E L S T A K E N BY B R I T I S H A T A R M I S T I C E A R E 8 E N T T O B O T T O M BY C R E W S , -UPHELD TRADITION" THEY SAY Commander of Fleet Ordered D e e d - Estimated That 400,000 Ton* of Craft W e n t Down. London.—The German officers and sailors forming the complements of the German ships Interned at Scapa Flow, sank most of their fleet June 21. All the big ships, the battleships and battle cruisers, excepting the Baden, and numerous smaller craft ware sunk, while others went ashore in a half sunken conuiuuu. It is estimated that more than 400,- 000 tons, of enemy crafts went down. Admiral von Reuter, commander of the surrendered German fleet personally orderftd Us scuttling by the crews, "to uphold the traditions of ihe German navy, which knows no surrender", he says. The wholesale sinking of the German ships, which were surrendered under the terms of the armistice was carefully arranged by officers and crews. All explosives had been removed, and therefore the only means of destroying the fleet was by open. ing the seacocks. The ships went down slowly, with the German flag, which the crews had hoisted, showing at the mastheads. The crews composed entirely of Germans, under the terms of the amiistice, which did not permit of British guards aboard, took to the boats when the vessels began to settle. While making for the shore the boats were challenged and called upon to surrenaej. » •J-.crtn t > » " ign^gxed the ^umajiojj^ and were fired T. •*. .»•, .¾.«, <>—«—jajiVJ^^g^.. ^3 . ^^SE&Jvtii^-xtC^j. -.~S<[#$*52^. Lament of Peter the Chauffeur. He envied Mr. Rushcroft. The barnstormer would have risen to the occasion without so much as the blinking of an eye. He did his best, however,' and, despite his eagerness, managed to come off fairly well. Anyone out of earshot would have thought that he was uttering some trifling inanity in* stead of these words : "You may trust me. I have suspected that something was" wrong here." "It Is impossible to explain now," she said. "These people are not my friends. I have no one to turn to In my predicament." "Yes, you have," he broke in, and laughed rather boisterously for him. He felt that they were being watched in turn by every person In the room. "Tonight—not an. hour ago—I began to feel that I could call upon you for help. I began to relax. Something whispered to me that I was no longer utterly alone. Oh, you will never know what It Is to have your heart lighten as mine—rhut I must control myself. We are not to waste words." "You have only to command me, Miss Cameron. No more than a dozen words are necessary- Tell me how I B- -& %.-..- l , ! » i ; i t . -you In ^sow© way—tomorrow, T U5g of you, I implore you, do not desert me. If I can only be sure that you win—" "You may depend on me, no matter what happens," said he, and, looking Into her eyes, was bound forever. "I have been thinking," she said. *Testerday I made the discovery that I—that I am actually a prisoner here, Mr. Barnes, I—Smile I Say something silly P . Together they laughed over the meaningless remark he made in response to her command. "I am constantly watched. If I venture outside t h e bouse I am almost immediately joined by one of these men. You saw what happened yea* terday. I am-distracted." "I will ask the authorities to step In and—" "No! You are to do nothing of the kind. The authorities would never find me if they came here to search." (It was hard for him to smite at that!) "It must be some other way. If I could steal out of the hon*e—but that is Impossible," she broke off with a catch in her voice. "Suppose that I .were to steal into the house," he said, a reckless light -rn-hls oyoa, — - _ "Oh, you could never succeed I" "Well, I could try, conldn't IT" There was nothing funny In the remark, but they both leaned hack and laughed heartily. "Leave It to me. Tell me where—" "The place Is guarded day and night The stealthiest burglar in the world could not come within a stone's throw of the house." "Tf it's as bsd as all t h a t we cannot pins" and right angles, to the gate opening upon the highway. Peter got down from the sent to release the padlocked chain and throw open the gate. XD'Dowd leaned closer to Barnes and lowered his voice. "See here, Barnes, I'm no fool, and for that reason I've got sense enough to know that you're not either. I don't know what's in your mind, nor what you're trying to get into it if it Isn't already there. But I'll say this to yoa, mnn to man: Don't let your Imagination get the better of your common sense. That's all. Take the tip from me." "I am not Imagining anything, O'Dowd," said Barnes quietly. "What do you mean?" "I mean just what I say. I'm giving you the-tip for selfish reasons. If you make a bally fool of yourself, I'll have to see you through the worst of it— and It's a Job I don't relish. Ponder that, will ye, on the way home?" Barnes did ponder It* on the way home. There was but one construction to put upon the remark : It was O'Dowd's way of letting hlra know that he could be depended upon for flrjr>*V>rt \f ^ P WOW* onme\ trv naa* cnnver^fttlon on the couch. He knew that Miss Cameron had appealed to Barnes, and that the latter had promised to do everything in his power to help her.. Suspecting that this was the situation, and doubtless sacrificing his own private Interests, he had uttered the vague but timely warning to Barnes. The significance of- this warning grew under reflection. Barnes was not slow to appreciate the position in which O'Dowd voluntarily placed himself. A word or a sign from him would be sufficient to bring disaster upon the Irishman who had risked his own safety in a few irretrievable words. T h e more he thought of it, the more fully convinced was he that there was nothing to fear from O'Dowd. Peter drove slowly, carefully over the road down the mountain. Responding to a sudden Impulse, Barnes lowered one of the side seats In t h e tonneau and moved closer to the "driver. "How long have you been driving for Mr. Curtis?" "Ever since he come up here, more'n two years ago. Guess I'm going to get the G. B. 'fore long, though. Seems that he's gettin' a new car an' wants an expert machinist to take hold of it from the -84*r4« -4 wa» good enough to fiddle around with this second-hand pile o' iunk an' the one he had last year, but I ain't qualified to handle this here machine he's expectin', go he says. I gue«s they's been some Influence used against me, if the truth was known. This new see'etary he's got cain't s^tummick me." "Why don't you s w Mr. Curtis and demand—" "See him?" snorted Poter. 'Might sometbin', I hear. Mr. Curtis' minxl is nil right, 1 guess, even if his body ain't." "I see. Mr. Loeb came up with him from New York." "Kerect. Him and Mr. O'Dowd and Mr. De Soto brought him up 'bout the last o' March. They was up here vlsitln' last spring an' the fall before. Mr. Curtis la very fond of both of 'em." "It seems to me that I have beard that his son married O'Dowd's sister." "That's right. She's a widder now. Her husband was killed in the war between Turkey an' them other countries four er five years ago." "Really?" "Yep, Him end Mr. O Dowd—his own brother-in-law, y' know—was ftghtin' on the-side of the Booigarlans and young Ashley Curtis was killed." "Was this son Mr. Curtis' only child?" "So fer as I know. He left three little kids. They was all here with their mother jest after the house was finished." "They will probably come into this property when Mr. Curtis dies," said Barnes, keeping the excitement out of 11 t v V i l 1111 u f I l u : i i i M n i m i i i ' , ! ; ; . . 1.1 > .(-,-. . . •, man and that if I bad a chance to buz? wlili you for a quarter of an hour 1 could present n proposition—" "Sorry, Mr. Sprouse, but it Is halfpnst eleven o'clock, and I am dog-tired.

After thrashing about in his bed for seven sleepless hours, Barnes arose and gloomily breakfasted alone. Hi ; was not discouraged over his failure j to arrive at anything tangible in ths- ! shnpe of a plan of action. It was in.* conceivable that he should not be ablo in very short order to bring about the | release of the fair guest of Green Fancy. There was not the slightest ! doubt in his mind that international j affairs of considerable importance j were involved and that the agents opj erating at Green Fancy were under definite orders. Mr. Sprouse came Into the dining rvwf», - ^ . k «'?i 'flft1?ur.hls last swai- Carranza Trbopa Sent to Protect Americans in Mexico.

Scattering bands of Villa men have been reported from various point3 along the border, but little Importance is attached to their appearance, as it is not thought, they are acting according to any pre-arranged plan but merely as stragglers froiu Villa's command, dispersed by American troopa last week. 339THDUE HOME IN FEW DAYS First of Men From Russia Expected hint {figfT "I ain't seen him In more'n six months. He was fallln' then. That's why he went to the city." "Oh, I see.

This Ijiot Loeb says he wrote me to meet 'em at Spanish Falls but I never got the letter. Like as not the durn fool got the address wrong. I didn't know Mr. Curtis was home till I come back from my sister's three days later. I wouldn't 'a* had It happen fer fifty dollars." Peter's tone was convincingly doleful. "And he has been confined to his room ever since? Poor old fellow 1 It's hard, isn't it?" "It sure is. Seems like he'll nevef be able to walk ag'ln. I was talkln' to his nurse only the other day. He says It's a hopeless case." "Fortunately his sister can be here with him." "By gosh, she ain't nolhln' like him," confided Peter. "She's all fuss an' feathers an' he Is jest as simple as you er me. Nothln' fluffy about him, I c'n tell ye." He sighed deeply. "I'm jest-as werl ptarsed t o £0 as not," hV^j went on. "Mrs. Collier's got a lot o' money of her" own, an' she's got hlghfalutin' New York ideas that don't seem to Jibe with mine." Long before they enme to the turnpike, Barnes had reduced his hundred and one suppositions to the following concrete conclusion; Green Fancy was no longer In the hands of its original owner for the good and sufficient reason that Mr. Curtis was dead. Th« nAh m a n s I see. jnorutafg^ •was iiijjJbl-ftiWi greeting. "Op with the Mind if I sit down her* He pulled out t little lark, and have my eggs?" chair opposite Barnes and coolly saf> down at the table, "You can't sell toe a set of Dicken* at this hour of the day." said Barnei sotrrly. "Besides, I've finished mf breakfast Keep your seat." He started to rise. "Sit down," said Sprouse quietly Something In the man's voice and mno* ner struck Barnes as oddly compelling. He hesitated a second and then resumed his seat. "I've been Investigating you, Mr. Barnes," said the little man, unsralllngly. "Don't get sore. There are a lot of things that you don't know, and one of them Is that I don't seP books for a living. It's something of f side line with me." He leaned forward. "I shall be quite frank with you, sir. I am a secret service man. Yesterday I went through your effects upstairs, and last night I took the liberty of spying upon you, so to speak, while you were a guest at Green Fancy." New York.—Headed by Major J.

Pinckney, Livingston County, .Michigan,' Thursday July 2, 1919 No. 2 6 RECOLLECTIONS OF BYGONE DAYS By J a s . T. Bam an. The approaching return of t h e anniverairy n1 nn» AmarWn yp^panri^nffe makes' me reminiscent of t h e first Fourth of July Celebration t h a t I can Tememher to have attended. I cannot recall the exact year, but it was a year or two before the outbreak of the Civil War. I think it waS 1857 or 1858, when I was a lad of seven or eight years, but there are incidents connected with that celebration more clearly fixed in my mind than those of many another I have attended since. I remember very well the Downing -of the sunrise salute, a gun for eacn- State, and how excited I was by the . feeling that 1 was loosing a Man of the program by not being CIOP n to the village that early. The "cannon" was a blacksmith's anvil, or rather two anvil?, vone on top of the other to cover the charge of powder contained in the aperture, and was "touched off" with a long rod of iron heated red in the forgr. I beiieve that was my first experience with fire-crackers, for I remember how. BOOTi a package was used up and how J went homa with burnt fingers arid smoked face. But my most vivid recollection is of Soldier Letter Paris, June 13, 1919. Dear Mother and All: Well, this is my last night in " t h e finest city in the world", so will send you a few lines, and ^m ay be it will reach you before i get back. We are leaving here tomorrow for Brest. Will sail Tuesday, but we are, going to the Az )res Islands and then to the Bermuda islands, eo i t will take a few days longer, but hope to be in the States about July 1. Weil, I have seen nearly everythibg in and around Paris, the ruina of some of the worst battles, German trenchee, j etc. and will say it is the most wonderful I ever expect to Bee. I wouidn't miss it for a thousand dollars, although it has been pretty warm here, and awfully dry and dusty. Saw the table on which peace will be signed, was up on the highest tower in the world, and several other places that have jus't been opened in the last couple of weeks. 1 couldn't begin to write every thii g so will wait until I see you, which I "hope won't be long. I surely ^hepe ! this finds you feeling better. j With love to all, George. P. S. A flovvor picked in a . G ^ n m n trench.

While some of the details concerning the Declaration of Independence will always be a matter of argument among historians, the sequence of events is clear and runs like this: Fighting between the Americans and The British began April 1& 1775. at Lexington. Even after the fighting was on It was some time before the movement for * independence gained much headway in the publicv mind. February 13, 1770, a committee appointed to prepare an address to the country presented its report to congress. This report reads In part: "We have been accused of carrying on the war for the purpose of establishing an empire. We disavow the Intention. We declare that what we aimed at and what we are entrusted by you to pursue is the defense anc* re-establishnjent of the constitutional rights of the colonies.".

This resolution was debated many times by congress. The chief speakers for separation were John Adams, his cousin, Samuel Adams; Roger Sherman, Oliver Olcott, Klchard Henry Lee and George Wythe, John Dickinson of Pennsylvania led the opposition for delay, prominent among his followers being John Jay, James Wilson, James Duane, Edward Rutledge and Robert R. Livingston, but it w a s evident from the beginning that they were In the minority. To save time a committee w a s appointed on June 11 to frame the Declaration of Independence. Strange to say, Richard Henry Lee, who was the father of the resolution, and by parliamentary right should have had the chairmanship of the committee, w a s left out of i t The reasons for this omission have been variously explained. It Is a fact that he was absent when the committee was named, having been called home by the Illness of his wife. The five members were Thomas Jefferson of Virginia, John Adams of Massachusetts, Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania, Roger Sherman of Connecticut and Robert R. Livingston of New York. All five were prominent In the congress and in national affairs. Roger Sherman la unique in American history ns a signer of the four great locitments: the Articles o f Assoda- •on. the Declaration of Independence, had not finished its labors, but on July 4 it presented a completed draft to the body, and after a long debate, which continued until t h e night, the congress adopted the Declaration of Independence. After the committee of the Tvhole had debated the paper for hours Benjamin Harrison reported to congress that the Declaration of Independence had been agreed to by the committee of the whole. The paper was again read and ordered'printed. The Declaration w a s committed to the printer, Dunlap, Immediately, and the broadBide w a s ready on the following day, July 5, when It received the signatures of John Hancock and of Charles Thomson, president and secretary of congress, respectively, authenticating the copy to be forwarded to the governments of the thirteen states. The signatures were followed by the words: "By Order and In Behalf of the Congress." Copies of the broadside were sent to the various states and to the commanding officers of the continental troops. It is not certain that each of these bore the signatures of the president and the secretary. should be fairly engrossed on parchrnont tvith thp title and style of 'The from congress on July 4 and the next day he wrote from Annapolis to John Adams, "Mow shall I transmit to posterity that I gave my assent?" On the ninth Adams replied, "As soon as an American seal is prepared I conj e c t u r e the Declaration will be subscribed to by all the members, which will give you the opportunity you wish for of transmitting your name among the votaries of independence." Elbrtdge Gerry of New York had to leave Philadelphia two weeks after the Declaration had been adopted, and he wrote to John and to Samuel Adams, "Pray subscribe for me ye Declaration of Independence if ye same is to be signed as proposed. I think we ought to have ye privilege when necessarily absent of voting and signing by proxy." « Of the signers who did not vote for the Declaration because they were, not members at that time William Williams of Connecticut was not elected until July 1 1 ; Rush, Clymer, Smith, Taylor and Ross of Pensylvanla were not elected until July 20. Charles Carroll of Carrollton, as well as Chose, was attending a meeting of the Marylnn/ t nrtfiTTpnHAn o n J u l v 4. <"S*i^—--w '-d-.-.^-r^rrL^ CAUTION:- Although Bltro-Phoaphate la unexcelled tor the relief of nervQUanees and attendant disorders, owing* to He tendency to increase weight one should watch the scales while taking it unless it Is the desire to put on flesh.

On August 2 the Journal records that "The Declaration of Independence, being engrossed, and compared at the table, w a s signed by the members.' 1 As to the signatures to the Declaration, a volume might be written. The common understanding is that the fifty-five men whose names are appended were present in congress on July 4, 1776, and assenting to the Declaration. This understanding is far from the truth. Signatures appear on the document of men who were not members of the congress at the time the Declaration was agreed on. It has been suggested that the proper Interpretation of the orders of congress to have the document signed by every member, yjas intended to include those who .became members about this time. But Henry Wisner of New York, who voted for independence, did not sign, and Robert Morris, who did not cast his vote for the Declaration, did. Wisner w a s absent in New York on August 2 to attend the provincial congress, to which he had been elected, and evidently never had an opportunity t o affix h i s signature to the document. There w a s a reason for the delay In appending the signatures apart from the time necessary to have the document engrossed.

Hon, having been compelled to r^ttrr j from Philadelphia on account of sickness in his family, having left on June 13. William Hooper of North Carolina was absent from Philadelphia at least as late as July 8. Yet all of these members signed the Declaration, although some of them, It has been shown, were not even members at that, time, and four members, were absent Thomas McLean of Delaware was the last to sign and did not do so until five years after the adoption of the Declaration and at a time when the war virtually was at an end. It was through no fault of McLean. His name was omitted from the printed copy in the Journal. *"* The popular, traditional Idea of the signing of the Declaration of Independence presents it as a graceful and formal function taking place July 4, 1776, In a large, handsomely furnished chamber In Independence hall, Philadelphia. To give the necessary touch of vivacity to the picture there Is the scene of the small boy darting from the door as the last signer sets his autograph to the parchment and dashing down the street calling to his grandfather to "Ring! Oh, ring for liberty r As a matter of fact the Declaration of Independence was signed- behind locked doors. The city was not breathlessly awaiting the event outside, nor did .the Liberty Bell peal forth on that day the triumphal note of freedom. From these facts it appears that the "Fourth of July** might with good reason nave fallen upon either'July 2 or August 2 iaeteed of upon July 4. Garage Fire Flint, Mich., June 17th. The four automobiles that were in the garage fire Sunday v rning weie insured in the Litizr is Mutual Automobile Insurance Company at Howell. The adjuster for the company met with the owners of the auto-~ mobiles and made a satisfactory settlement, making a total cash settlement of "$3,249.00. The owners of the cars were veiy much pleased with the prompt and satisfactory adjustment. # _ . i-V , *aicr they were able to pay i& cash because they had accui « ~-. - +>v five sea&wife aiiu. had on h&h^ over $80,000. Automobile owners who take a policy in the Big Mutual know that when a serious loss occurs that the company has the money on. hand to pay promptly, and the fact that thg / company has written over 46,- 000 policies gives each member the benefit of a very low rate of insurance due to quantity production.

Isn't that so?" - "1 am answering n o questions^ Mr, Sprouse.'* "You were wrong," said Sprouse, as if Barnes had answered in the affirmative. "I am working on my own. You may have observed that I did not accompany the sheriffs posse today. I w a s up In Hornville getting the final word from New York that you were on the level. I telephoned to New York. Eleven dollars and sixty cents. You were under suspicion ujitll I hung up the receiver, I may say." "Jones has been talking to you," said Barnes. "But you said a moment ago .that you were up at Green Fancy last night. Not by invitation, I take it." "I invited myself," raid Sprouse succinctly. "Are you~4nclined to favor my proposition?" * "You haven't made one." "By suggestion, Mr. Barnes. It Is quite impossible for me to get Inside that house. You appear to have the entree.

I am here to get it, one way or another, when that comes to pass." "What led you t o suspect fhat he Is at Green Fancy, Mr. Sprouse?" "History. It Is known that this Mr. Curtis has spent a great deal of time in the country alluded to. As a matter of fact, his son, who lived in London, had. rather extensive business interests there. This son w a s killed in the Balkan war several years ago. It Is said that the man I am looking for was a friend of young Curtis, who married" a Miss O'Dowd in London— the Honorable Miss O'Dowd, daughter of an Irish peer and sister of the chap you have met at Green Fancy. About six weeks ago a former equerry in the royal household arrived in New York. Through him I learned that the daughter of the gentleman In whose house the senior Mr. Curtis w a s a frequent j-Ciiest had been In the United States} since some time prior to the beginning of the war. She was visiting friends in the States and has been unable to return to her own land, for reasons that must be obvious. I may as well confess that her father was, by marriage, an uncle of the late ruler. "Since the invasion and overthrow of her country by the Teutonic allies she has been endeavoring to raise money here Tor the purpose of equipping and supporting the remnants of the small army that fought so valiantly in defense of the crown. These men, a few thousand only, are at present interned in a neutral country. I leave you to guess what will happen if she succeeds in supplying them with arms and ammunition. Her work is being carried on with the greatest secrecy. To bring the story to a close, I was instructed to keep close watch on the man O'Dowd. J traced him to this place, Tt was on the point of reporting to my superiors that he was in no way associated with the muchsought- after crown-cousin, and that Green Fancy was ns free from taint as the village chapel, when out of a clear sky and almost under my very nose two men were mysteriously done away with at the very gates of the jalaiMU^The..JkUltBK.

Why has he established himself so close to the Canadian, line, and why the mobilization? I refer to his army of huskies." "Heirs apparent usually have some sort of a bodyguard, don't they?" Sprouse was staring thoughtfully at the celling. When he finally lowered his eyes It was to favor Barnes * l t h a deep, Inscrutable, smile. "I dare say the first thing for me to do is to advise the Canadian authorities to keep a sharp lookout along the border." CHAPTER X I I . The First Wayfarer Accepts an Invitation.

"It is not n matter for the government to meddle in at all." "Well, something has to be done at once," said Barnes doggedly. "She is depending on me. If you could have seen the light that leaped into her glorious eyes when I—" "Yes, I know. I've heard she Is quite a pretty girl. You needn't—" "Quite a pretty girl!" exclaimed Barnes. "Why, she is the loveliest thing that God ever created. She has the face of—" "I am beginning to understand O'Dowd's Interest In her, Mr. Barnes. He has probably fallen in love with her with as little difficulty as you have experienced, and almost as expeditiously. He has seen a little more of her than you, but—" "Don't talk nonsense. I'm not in love with her." "Can you speak with equal authority for Mr. O'Dowd? He is a very susceptible Irishman. 1 am tnid."

I am here to recover them. That Is the foundation of my story, Mr. Barnes. "Without drvulginff the name of the house I wjll say that Its sympathies have been from the outset friendly to the entente allies—especially with France. There are two branches of the ruling family, one in power, the other practically in exile. The state Is a small one, but its integrity Is of the highest. Its sons and daughters have married Into the royal families of nearly all of the great nations of the continent The present—or I should say, the late ruler, for he died on a field of battle not many months ago, had no direct heir. He w a s young and unmarried. I am not permitted to state with what army he was fighting, nor on which front he w a s killed. It Is only necessary to say that his little state was gobbled up by the Teutonic allies. The branch of t h e family mentioned as being in | exile lent Its support to the cause of Germany, not for moral reasons but In t h e hope and with the understand- Ynb~wn~TuTAndrewTlobri walTno (JrheTTS: than the equerry who had undertaken to find the—young woman." Barnes drew a long breath. His mind was made up. He, had decided to pool Issues with the secret agent. but not until he was convinced that the result of their co-operation would In no way Inflict a hardship upon the young woman who had appealed to him for help. He w a s certain that she was the fair propagandist described by Sprouse. "And the young woman, what of her? She would, in any case, be held for examination and—" "My dear sir. I may as woll tell you now that she is a lovnl subject and, far from being in bad grace at court is an object of extreme solicitude to the ambassador. From what 1 can gather she has disappeared completely. Roon was sent over here for the sole purpose of finding her and inducing her to return with him to^Paris." "And to take the treasure with her, I suppose," said Barnes dryly. "Naturally." "Well," began Barnes, introducing a harsh note into his voice, "I should say that If she Is guilty of receiving *M« qtolon rtrrm*»rtv she ought to be TjriTj"Trmn^aTTr'"Tje"t3Trt"[ Immune." "i catch the point. Mr. Sprouse," said Barnes, rather gloomily. He did not like to think of the methods that might have to be employed In the subjugation of Mr. O'Dowd. "There is a rather Important question I'd like to ask. Is she even remotely eligible to her country's throne?" "Remotely, yes," said Sprouse. "So remotely thnt she could marry a chap like O'Dowd without giving much thought to future complications?" he ventured. "She'd !"• Just as safe in marrying O'Dowd ' ^ sl> * would In marrylfrg you," was Spr.,use's unsatisfactory response. The man's brow was wtlnkled in thought. "See here, Mr. Barnes, I &m_ planning a visit to.Green Fancy tonight. How would you like to accompany me?" "I'd like nothing better," said Barnes, with enthusiasm. "Will y o u . agree to obey Instructions? I can't ruive you muddling things up, y6u know." "The grounds arc caiefuiiy guarded," said Barnes, after they had discussed the project for some time.

A queer pallor came into his face. "You do not understand the situation. Haven't I made it plain to you that she Is Innocent of any Intent to do wrong?" "You have said so, Mr. Sprouse, but your Idea of wrong and mine may not Jibe." "There cannot be two ways of looking at i t sir," said Sprouse, after a moment "She could do no wrong." Whereupon Barnes reached his hand across the table and laid it on Sprouse's, His eyes were dancing. •That's Just what I want to be sure abdut," be said. "It w a s mf way of finding out your intentions concerning her." "What do you mean?" "Come with me to my room," said Barnes, suppressing his excitement "I think I can tell you where«she i s — and a great deal more that you ought to know." f In the little room upstairs he told the whole, story. The little man listened without so much a s a single word of Interruption or Interrogation. Somewhat breathlessly Barnes came to the end. "And now, Mr. Sprouse, what do yon m a k e of i t a U f h e inquired. Sprouse leaned back in his chair, suddenly relaxing. "I am completely at sea," he said, and Barnes looked at him In surprise. "By Jove, I thought it would all b e a s d e a r as day to you. Here is your man and also y o c r woman, and t h e ] traveling bag f a n o#—* .rW* H "I know.

"By the way, don't you think it would be very polite of you* to invite the Green Fandy party over here to have an oldfashioned country dinner with you tonight?" "It would be useless, Mr. Sprouse. They will hot come." "I am perfectly aware of that but It wop't do any harm to ask them, w i l L I t r Barnes chuckled. "I see. Establishing myself as an Innocent bystander, eh?" "Get O'Dowd on the telephone and ask him If they can come," said Sprouse. "But there Is Jones to consider. The telephone is In his office. What will he think—" "Jones is all right" said Spronpe briefly. "Come along. You can call si up from my room." He grinned slyly. "Such a thing as tapping the wlna, you know." Sprouse had installed a telephone In his room, carrying a wire upstali» from an attachment made in the cellar of the Tavern. He closed the door to his little room on the top floor.

If the infested spot b e small, the grass or grain can bo mowed off and straw scattered about and burned, thus destroying the worms. If the caterpillars have become distributed over a considerable area, this can be marked off by stakes and the crop sprayed heavily with a solution of parts green at the rote of one pound kind may be prepared and used as follows: To 60 pounds of wheat bran and one pound of parts green or two pounds of powdered arsenate of lead; add the juice of one-half dozen oranges or lemons. Then bring the mass to a stiff, dough by adding lowgrade molasses or sirup, preferably molasses, snd scatter the mixture broadcast in small pieces throughout the infested field. In case the worms are not discovered until they have begun to travel in a mass, usually they can be destroyed by furrowing or ditching complete* ly around the Infested area. Summary of Control Measures for the Army Worm. L Watch fields of growing grass and grain carefully, especially ths meadows* during the spring and early summer months, to discover the army worms before they become full grown and spread over the entire farm. When the worms are discovered at work, do" not lose a minute, but attack ures outlined in foregoing paragraphs. 2. Poison them by spraying crops not intended for forage with one pound of parts green to 50 gallons of water, or with two pounds of powdered arsenate of lead_to^0 gallons of water. In case the parts green Is used on tejider plants, like corn, add two pounds of freshly-slaked lime to 60 gallons of the mixture; This is to prevent burning the tender plants. Where spraying is, not practicable, the use of the poisoned-bran bait already mentioned la strongly recon> mended. S.

"But sometimes I think, when creatures seem not to know how happy they are and when they don't appreciate their happiness, that it's because they don't know what it means to be sad. If they had known they wouldn't make things wretched by being unhappy over nothing at all.'* One little chick was crying now. "I think this sounds like a very sad story," he said.

Mother Bantam saw that another chick had tears in its eyes, only tears such as a mother bantam could see. "But soon I was quite, quite happy," she continued. "I found a hen, a most unnatural mother who didn't care to be bothered by her young. She let me take them. She didn't mind in the least." - "We're the ones," the little chicks shouted. "Yes, you were the ones, and I brought you up as my own. And you've been my own darlings ever since.

Sometimes people speak rather patroniEinly of mere goodness and are -hrcUned to exenae the gifted for breaking the rule? of right-doing.

Oat a timely use of Castoria would save many of these precious Uvea. Neither do we hesitate to aay that many of these infantile deaths are occasioned by the nee of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and soothing syrups sold for children's complaints contain more or less opium or morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity, they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. There can be no danger in the use of Castoria if it bears the signature of Chaa. H. Fletcher as it contains no opiates or narcotics of any kind. Genuine Oaatorla. always bears the etemavture of Comment. "I see Brown has a new suit" "Yes.

Bureau of Markets report that on June 1, 1919, there were 1,348,000,000 pounds of meats in cold storage. If the meat in storage was placed on the market it would only be 20 days* supply. This meat is not artificially withheld from trade channels to maintain or advance prices. Meats in storage consist of— 65 per cent (approximate) hams, bacon, etc., in process of curing. It takes 30 to 90 days in pickle or ^alt to complete the process. I 10 6 19 per cent is frozen pork that is to be cured later in the year. — per cent is lard. This is only four-fifths ~ i w ' ^ T T ' - r *-* ***? "h^4,-i"?iv &.-• T; :>*» per cent is frozen beef and lamb, part of which is owned by the Government and was intended chiefly for over-seas shipment. If this were all diverted to domestic trade channels, it would be only 1 ½ lbs. per capita—a 3 days' supply. 100% From this it will be seen that''meats in storage" represent merely unfinished goods in process of curing and the working supply necessary to assure the consumer a steady flow of finished product.

He believes that everything will turn out well for me in the end, but I am frightened. I must get away from this place.** "Then keep your eyes and ears open for the next night or two.

"It is one flight u p ; the first >f the two windows in my room is the third to the right of the. entrance. 1 am confident that someone is stationed below my windows all night long." "You still insist that I am not to call on the authorities for help?" MYes, yes I That muBt not even be considered. I have not only myself to consider, Mr. Barnes. I am a very small atom in—" "All right! We'll get along without them," he said cheerily. "Afterward we will discuss the Importance of atoms." "And your reward as well, Mr. Barnes," she said. Her voice trailed off Into an indistinct murmur. He heard the receiver click on the hook, and after calling "hello" twice hung up his own with a sigh. Evidently O'Dowd had warned her of t h e approach of a less considerate person than himself. l^femjM^ji&a&gttsasi*^,.^ ,.,-^ *MnV4fci»* ' _ Jrra. :rm;il*:^r*Mton&32Brki, CHAPTER XMI.

Then earn© the sound of n dull, heavy blow, a hoarse gasp, a momentary commotion m ?the shrubbery, and—again silence. Barnes' blood ran cold.

The average person la beginning to realize more and more that the lack of physical, strength and nerve exhaustion (frequently evidenced by excessive thinness) are the direct cause not only of. the failure to succeed in life's struggle for the necessities of existence, but also tor the handicap In one's social aspirations. Compare the thin, sickly, angular frame with At the seaside too, the flump wellrounded figure is most admired, the well rounded form which Is usually accompanied by the bloom of health and attractiveness. That millions of people are conscious of this handicap is evident from the continued appearance in newspapers and magazines of many suggestions proposing various remedies In food or medicine or exercises, either of which might or might not be appropriate for a given case. Authorities, however, agree that healthy nerve tissue Is absolutely essential to a strong, robust body and mind. Weak nerves, while indicated by a multitude of different symptoms, more immediately and generally result In lack of energy, sleeplessness, irritability, depression, etc., which conditions gradually consume the healthy flesh, leaving; ugly holiows, a flat chest, bony neck ana scrawny arms and legs. Our bodies need more phosphate than most of them are able to extract from the foods we eat nowadays, and many opinions affirm that there is nothing which may be taken into the human system that so effectively supplies this deficiency as the pure organic phosphate known as bitro-phosphate and sold by good drwggists everywhere. The essential phosphoric food elements in bitro-phosphate assimilated by the nerve cells should soon produce a pleasing change In nerve energy and hence Increased vitality and strength.

The hardest -part of my job Is to keep her from subscribing for a s e t of Dickens. Conley's house is not far from Green Fancy. Savvy?" Barnes, left to his own devices, •wandered from taproom to porch, from porch to forge, from forge to taproom, his brain far more active than his legs, his heart as heavy as lead and a s light as air by turns. More than once he felt like resorting to a well-known expedient to determine whether he was awake or dreaming. Could all this be reel? Ten minutes later he w a s in UVH.UI telephonic experiences. JLt nine o'clock he yawned prodigiously and announced that*he was, going to bed. greatly t o the surprise of Mr. Barnes, w h o followed h i m from tbe taproom and demanded an explanation. "People usually go to bed at night* don't they?" said Sprouse patiently. "It is expected, I believe." "But, my dear man, we are to undertake—" "I have some cause for believing that one of those chaps In there Is from Green Fancy. Go to bed at ten o'clock, my friend, and put out your light. I don't insist on your taking off your rlothes, however. I will rap on your door at eleven o'clock. By the way, don't forget to stick your revolver in your pocket." A few minutes before eleven there came a gentle tapping on Barnes' door. He sprang to his feet and opened it, presenting himself before Sprouse fully dressed and, as the secret agent said later on, 4tflt to kill." The night w a s as black as pitch. Barnes, trusting to the little man's eyes and hanging close upon his coattails, followed blindly but gallantly " i I L L ' V - Q ' . j V , ^ , , • r f n T . f « * r ^ r w l - r i m i n i t T • r x i i . .

"This is the chnrt n i t to Green Fancy," he whlsr *»(. f^T*>^F>- ..rv.- V.'- ( ing?" "Grievously lonesome," replied Barnes, and wound up a doleful account of himself by imploring O'Dowd to save his life by bringing the entire Oreen Fancy party over to dinner that night t O'Dowd was heart-broken. Personally he would go to any extreme to save BO valuable a life, but as for the rest of the party, they begged him to say they were sorry to hear of the expected death of so promising a chap and that while they couldn't come to his party they would be delighted to come to his funeral. In short, it would be Impossible for them to accept his kind invitation. The Irishman was ao gay and good-humored that Barnes took hope. "By the way, 0*Dowd, Td like to speak with Miss Cameron if she can come to the telephone." MDon't be surprised If you are cut off suddenly. The coast is clear for the moment but— Here, Miss Cameron." Careful now." Her voice, sWt and clear and trerobJiag with eagerness, caressed Barnes' eager ear. "Mr. O'Dowd will see that no evil befalls me here, but he refuses to help me to get away. I quite mrderstantt and appreciate his position. I cannot ask him to go so far as that Help will have to come from the outside.

This was real melodrama. "Hear what?" he whispered shiny. "ListenP After a second or two: •There P "It's a woodpecker hammering on tho limb of a—" "Woodpeckers don't hammer at night my lad. Don't stir I Keep your can* open." Sprouse clutched his companion's arm and, dropping to hi? knees in the thick underbrush, pulleJ the other down after hlra. Presently heavy footsteps approached. An unseen pedestrian passed within ten yards of them. They scarcely breathed until the sottods poised entirely out of hearing. Sprouae put his lips close to Barnes' ear. "Telegraph." he whispered. "It's a system they have of reporting to each other. There are two men patrolling the grounds near the house You what we're up against, Barnes, Ihj you still want to go on with lir* wIt wasn't much of a erack, and It was necessary.* Straightening up, with a sigh of satisfaction, he laid his hand on Barnes' Bhoolder. "We've just got to go through with it now, Barnes. We'll never get another chance. Putting that fellow out of "business queers us forever afterward." He dropped to his knees and began searching over the ground with his hands. "Here It is. You can't see it,, of course, so I'll tell you what it is. A nice little block of sandalwood. I've already got his nice little hammer, so we'll see wfcat we can raise In tbe way of wireless chit-chat." Without the slightest hesitation he struck a succession of quick. <onndeut blows upon the block of wood. "By gad, you are a wonder I" "Wait till tomorrow before you say that," replied Sprouse, sententlously. "Come along now. Stick to the trail. We've got to land the "other one." Turning sharply to- the right. Sprouse guided his companion through the brush for some distance, and once more came to a halt. Again he stole on ahead, and as before the slow, confident, even careless progress o^f a man ceased as abruptly as that of the thicket below. Barnes TO^d a firm, detaining hand on the man's shoulder. " {. i - , . 1 f ' • ^,. ... „.. • ' . , . . . 1 men over like this, but just what is your object? What does all this lead up to?" Sprouse broke in, and there was not the slightest trace of emotion in bis whisper. "Quite right You ought to know. I suppose you thought I was bringing you up here for a Romeo and J^iet tete-a-tete with the beautiful Miss Cameron—and for nothing else. Well, In a way, you are right But, first of all, my business is to recover the crown jewels and parchments. I am going Into that house and take them away from the man you know as Loeb, If he has them. If he hasn't them my work here Is a failure," "Going inte- the house?" gasped Barnes. "Why, my God, man, that U* Impossible. You would be shot down as an ordinary burglar and—the law would justify them for killing you. 1 must insist—" "I am not asking you to go Into the house, my friend. I shall go alone," said Sprouse coolly. - "On the other band, I came up nerv to rescue a helpless—" "Keep cool I It's the only way. Now listen. She has designated her room and the windows that are hers. She is lying awake up there uow, take it from me, hoping that you wilt come tonight 1 shall lead yon directly to her window.

"There ts u faint glow of lijdit up jlrere to the right., The third window, did you say? Well, that's about where I should locate i t " The tiny metallic tip of the rod, held in the upstretched hand of Barnes, much the taller of the two men, barely reached the window ledge. He tapped gently, persistently on the hard surface. Just as they were beginning to think that she was asleep and that their efforts were in vain their straining eyes made out a shadowy object projecting slightly beyond the sill. After a moment or two of suspense Barnes experienced a peculiar, almost electric shock. Someone had seized the tip of the rod: it stiffened suddenly, the vibrations due to its flexibility ceasing. Someone was untying tho bit of paper he had fastened to the rod, and with fingers that shook and were clumsy with eagerness. He bad written: "I am outside with a trusted friend, ready to do your bidding. Two of tbe guards are safely bound and out of the way. Now* Is our chance.

He signed it with a large "B." It seemed an hour before their eyes distinguished the shadowy head above. As a matter of fact but a few minutes had passed. During the wait Sprouse had noiselessly removed his coat, a proceeding that puzzled Barnes. Something light fell to tbe ground. It was Sprouse who stooped and searched for It in the grass. When he resumed an upright posture he put his lips close to Barnes* ear and whispered: it is the desire to put on flesh.

WAR COST AMERICA 30 BILLION New York.—The Far Eastern Bureau has made public ^hat is alleged to be the complete text of the rumored Ger man-Japanese alliance, said to have been signed in October, 1918, while the two countries were still at war. Dr. Jeremiah Jenks, former American advisor to the Chinese govern, ment, in Pekin, is head of the Far Eastern Bureau, which has for its object the presentation of China's problems to the American public. The alleged treaty makes remarkable disclosures, which if true, show that Japan promised, among other •things, to -protect Germany^ interests at the Peace Conference and to conclude a secret military alliance against "aggressive intentions of America and England." In making public the text of he alleged treaty, the bureau says that "the text was obtained by a representative of the Soviet republic in Berlin from the Bolshevik archives at Perm, Siberia, following the capture of that place by anti-Bolshevik forces, Feb. 2, 1919." The bureau says knowledge of the contents to the Peace Conference.

Liberty and Victory Loans Paid Per Cent of Thia Amount. 71 "Washington—The war cost the United States $30,177,000,000 up to June 30, 1919. Sec. Glass made this estimate in submitting to the congressional appropriations committee the preliminary statements of the treasury on the condition of the nation's finances. Taxes and other revenues than borrowed money took care of 19,384,000,- 000 or about 29 per cent of the war cost. The remainder came from Liberty bond and Victory note issues and saving stamps. Further issues of bonds, Mr. Glass said, will not be necessary "before the maturity or redemption of the victory notes," which have four years to ran. The treasury is confident that the treasury certificates supplemented by short-term notes will provide the necessary funds to pay the government's debts during the current fiscal year. Washington.—President Wilson has dashed the last hopes of the anti-prohibitionists aa to the possible resumption of the sale of liquors, light wines and beers in this country prior to th" time the constitutional amendment forbidding the manufacture and sale goes into effect on January 16 next. The president indicated there was no possible chance for a speedy de* mobilization of the army to the point where he would.feel Justified in proclaiming demobilization complete. The enforcement of the military and naval terms, the president said, was bound to slow up demobilization. For this reason there seems no reason for hope that the liquor ban will be lifted. He further said Attorney-General Palmer wai entirety Tight tn Tulina; that the president cannot proclaim peace with Germany until the treaty with that country has been ratified by the senate.

Don't flash it until I am sure the coat la arranged so that you can do so without a gleam of light getting out from under." He pressed the torch and a bit of closely folded paper In the other's hand and carefully draped the coat over his head. Barnes read: "Thank God! 1 was afraid you would wait until tomorrow night. Then it would have been too late. I must get away tonight but I cannot leave—I dare not leave without something that Is concealed In ant h e r part of the house. I do not know how to% secure it. My door is locked from the outside. What am I to do? I would rather die than to go away without it." Hastily he wrote: "If you do not come at once, we will force our way into the house and fight It out with them all. My friend la coming up the vines. Let him enter the window. Tell him where to go and -he will do the rest. He is a miracle man. Nothing Is impossible to him. If he does not return in ten minutes. I shall follow." There was no response to this. The head reappeared In the window, but no word came down. Sprouse whispered : "I am going up. Stay here. If you hear a commotion In the house, run for It. Don't Walt for me. I'll probably be done for." "I'll do Just as I please about running," said Barnes, and there was a deep thrill In his whisper. "Good luck.

"You must not fall, Theodore Sprouse," she whispered. **l mult regain the jewels and the state papers. I cannot go without—** "I shall do my best," he said simply. Silently he drew a chair to the doof, mounted it and, drawing himself up by his hands, poked his head through the open transom. An Instant later he was on the floor again. She heard him inserting a key in the lock. Almost before she could realize that It had actually happened, the door opened slowly, cautiously, and his thin wiry figure slid through what seemed to her no more than a crack. As softly the door was closed. For a long time she stood, dazed and unbelieving, in the center of the room, staring at the door. 8he held her breath, listening for the shout that was so sure to come—and the shot, perhaps! A prayer formed on her lips and went voicelessly up to God. Suddenly she roused herself from the stupefaction that.held her. Wit* feverish haute sne snatched up garran through his body. She told him of the man who watched across the hall from the room supposed to t«e occupied by Loeb the secretary, and of Sprouse's incomprehensible daring. "Where is MraCurtls?" he asked. Her breath fanned his cheek, her lips were close, to his ear. "There is no Mr. Curtis here. He died four months ago in Florida." **Z suspected as much." He did not press her for further revelations. "Sprouse should be here by this time. I must go out there and see if^he requires any-df She clutched his arm frantically. "You shall do nothing of the kind. You Khali not—" "Sh!

"Hut he said positively that I was to go In case he did not return in—in fifteen mlautes," she begged.

The chances are that your flight has not been discovered. Do you feel like going on? We must beat them t # the Tavern. They—" "I am all right now," she bald, and they were off again. Barnes now picked his way carefully and with the greatest caution. He could only pray that he was going in the right direction. An hour—but what seemed thrice as long—paused and they had not come to the edge of the forest. Her feet were beginning to dra«; he could tell that by the effort she made to keep up with him. From time to time he paused to allow her to rest. ' "You are plucky," he once said to her. HI am afraid I could not be so plucky If you were uot so strong," she sighed, and he loved the tired, whimsical little twist she put into her reply. To his dismay they came abruptly upon a region abounding in huge rocks. This was new territory to him. His heart sank. "By Jove, I—I believe we are"farther away from the • road than when we started. We must have been going up the slope instead of down." "In any case, Mr. Barnes," she murmured, "we have found something to sit down upon." I He chuckled. "If you can lie os I cheerful as all that, we sha'n't miss I the cushions," he said, and, for the first time, risUed a flash of the electric torch. The survey was brief. He ted her forward a few paces to a fiat boulder, and there they seated themselves. "I- wonder where we are," she said. "I am inclined to suspect that we are above Green Fancy, but a long way off to the right of it. Admitting that to be the case, I am afraid to retrace our steps. The Lord only knows what we might blunder Into." "I think the only sensible thing to do, Mr. Barnes, U to make Ourselves as snug and comfortable as we enn and wait for the first signs of daybreak." He srowl«»d—drift was jrlnrt thp.r It was too dark for her to see his face. He wondered If she fully appreciated what would happen to him If the pursuers came upon him in this forbidding'spot.

As a by-product the yield of potatoes on the farm of Ben Pawson of Goaldale, Alberta, was somewhat of a Baying proposition. Coaldale Is in the Medicine Hat district of Alberta. Medicine Hat 1« a place, pictured in the mind of many Americans, where the weather man holds high carnival, and when he wants to put a little life or spirit lntothe people Just moves the mercury down a few notches. The rascal has thus given Medicine Hat a rather unenviable place on the map. But It isn't half as bad as it is pictured. Anyway, Ben Pawson likes 1L Last year he grew six hundred bushels of potatoes on two acres of land that had no special preparation, and only the usual precipitation, or rain, as the less cultured would call it. When he couldn't work at his hay or grain, because of the clamp mornings, he gave them some attention. And then evenings between supper and chores and bedtime he gave them some work. Anyway his yield was sir hundred bushels, and he sold the whole lot for $283. Ben Is satisfied. Still there were larger yields than this la the neighborhood. If one might- speak of hogs in the same breath in which you speak of potatoes, there Is nothing In the ethics of literature that would create a debarment- Taking advantage of this license it will not be out of place to state that large potato yields are no* the only feature of Interest In this new and Interesting country.

We will follow Sprouse. When he crawled through the window and stood erect inside the room, he found himself confronted by a tall, shadowy figure* standing half-way between him and the door. He advanced a step or two and uttered a soft hiss of warning, "Not a sound," he whispered, drawing still nearer. "I have come four taoosand miles to help you, countess.

Both were listening intently for sounds In the hall. She leaned closer to whisper in his ear. Their shoulders touched. He wondered if she experienced the same delightful thrill that wuere IU rarer A hoarse shout of alarm rang out, and then the rush of heavy feet over thickly carpeted floors. Barnes acted with lightning swiftness. He sprang to the open window, half-carrying, half-dragging the girl with him. "Now for it!" he whispered. "Not a second to lose. Climb upon my back, qurtrk, and hang on for dear life." He had scrambled through the window and. was lying flat across the -sill. "Hurry! Don't be afraid. I am strong enough to carry you If the vines do their part," With surprising alacrity and sureness «he crawled out beside him and then over upon his broad back, clasping her arms around his neck. Holding to the ledge with one hand he felt for and clutched the thick vine with the other. Slowly he slid his body off of the sill andfwung free by one arm. An Instant later he found the lattice with the other hand and the hurried descent began. His feet touched the ground.

"Can you—manage to—walk a little way?" he gasped. "Give me your hand, and follow as close to my heels as you can. Better that I should bump into things than you." Shouts were now heard, and shrill blasts on a police whistle split the air. On they stumbled, blindly, recklessly. He spared her many an injury by taking it himself. More than once she murmured sympathy when he crashed into a tree or floundered over a log. Utterly at sea, he was now guessing at the course they were taking. Whether their frantic dash was leading them toward the Tavern, or whether they were circling back to Green Fancy, he knew not Panting, he forged onward. At last she cried out quaverlngly: "Oh, I—I can go no farther 1 Can't we—is it not safe to stop for a moment? My breath is—" "God bless you, yes," he exclaimed, and came to an abrupt stop. She leaned heavily against him, gasping for breath. "I haven't the faintest, Idea where we are, but we must be some distance from the house.

She struggled to her feet, suppressing a groan, and thrust a determined arm thrQugh his. "Tif&t's worth remembering," said he, and whether it was a muscular necessity or an emotional exaction that caused his arm to tighten on hers, none save he would ever know. After a few minutes prowling among the rocks they came to the face of what subsequently proved to be a sheer wall of stone. He flashed the light, and, with an exclamation, start* ed back. Not six feet ahead of them the earth seemed to end; a yawning "Good Lord, that was a*close call," he gasped. He explained In a few words and then, commanding her to stand perfectly still, dropped to the ground and carefully felt his way forward. Again he flashed the light In an Instant he understood. They were on the brink of a shallow quarry. (TO BE CONTINUED.) New Delicious Fruit*. There have been found In the Philippines two fruits entirely unknown to Europe and e^en to America.

The bulletin contains 12 lessons, Including the selection of seed potatoes ir the field, harvesting and grading, marketing, winter storage, judging, tuber and plant structure, place of potatoes In the rotation, soils (kind, preparation, fertilizers), planting and seed treatment, cultivation, Insect pests and diseases, and uses as food. With each lesson is given the sources of material which may be studied with the subject tinder discussion, illustrative material that will help in its presentation, class exercises and practical exercises. Study Different Stages. As potatoes may be secured at any t roe of the year, there is no excuse, says the bulletin, for attempting to study them without having at hand sreclmens which represent good varieties grown In the district. The porno plant In the field should be studied during the different stages of development. Especially should the relation of the new tubers to the seed tu!;er and the root system of the plant bt noted.

J* Pulham, England—Great Britain's mammoth transatlantic air pioneer, the dirigible R-34, arrived at the air station here at 6:56 o'clock, Greenwich time Sunday, completing her round trjp to the United States. T«tae voyage from Long Island was without particular incident and was completed in approximately 75 hours. The arrival of the R-34 of Pulham. about 85 miles northeast of London, marks the completion of the first round trfp voyage of any aircraft across the Atlantic ocean and the first trans*" oceanic flight of a lighter-than-air machine. Incidentally, th<* K-34 is the first aircraft to have made th^^st-towest flight, which trip she completed Sunday, July 6. Thus the actual flying time for the round trip was 1S2 hours and 8 minutes. In connection with the R-34's flying time of approximately 75 hours on the return trip, it is recalled that the American seaplane NC-4 took 15 hours, 18 minutes in flying from Trepassey, N. F., to the Island of Horta, Azores, on May 16. Gaptaln Alcock and Lieutenant Brown in their aeroplane flight from St. John's to Cliffden, Ireland, qn June 14, consumed 16 hours and 12 minutes.

EARNINGS OF CLUB MEMBERS Indiana Boys and Girls Spend Bigger Part of Savings for Liberty Bonds and SUmpa. (Prepared by ths United States Department of Agriculture.) What do club boys and girls do with tbe money they earn in their work? It 1B a question frequently asked by person* who have read of their profit*. The question was asked approximately SCO boys and girls at the first annual club roundup of Indiana boy and girl club members, held recently at Purdue university In co-operation with the United States department of agriculture. It was found that 58 of those present owned Liberty bonds, which they had purchased with their own earnings; 109 had War Savings stamp*; and practically every one had bought Thrift stamps. Thirty-one had started bank account* with the money they had made tn raising corn, pig*, caivea or poultry, selling canned prodnets,, or from some other branch of clnb work. Etghty-flve owned pigs, 46 owned calves, 28 owned sheep, and 82 owned poultry. Definite plans to attend college by use of money from club work had been m a d e f y 117. It wa* found that of the 350 attending the meeting, 176 had been engaged In club work two years; 70, three years; 9. four years, and four, five years. Beekeeping as Side Line. Beekeeping as a side line is more profitable than poultry, In the opinion of Dr. J. H. Merrill, assistant professor of entomology in the Kansas State Agricultural college. Rye as Forage Crop. Rye Is sometime* used as a forage crop supplement and next to rape 1* perhaps best adapted to seeding in the corn when it Is laid by. Cheek Drifting Soil. Drifting ol aoll can be checked by spreading straw or manure in strips across the field. Plowing an occasional furrow will also help. Not OUBeuft te> Control.

There was no immediate response from the inside. Then Miss Thackeray observed, quite coldly: "I think I'd like to hear the lady's voice, if you don't mind.

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

There is only one way tp cure catarrhal deafness, and that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirly closed:deafneas is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube/restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an inflamed condition of, the> mucous surfaces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Medicine. Circulars free. All druggists, 75c. F. J.

(City gardens and lawns frequently need drainage, and If properly tiled, would be greatly improved.) Tile drains usually give more thorough drainage than open ditches.

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

Chicago.—A series of riots In the Negro district Sunday resulted in the drowning of one Negro, the reported drowning of one white man, t i e probably mortal injury of another Negro, the shooting of a policeman in toe ahoulderr and injury to a score of white and black persons toy bullets or missiles. The trouble started at the Twentyninth street beach, where white and black people are segregated, and soon spread to State street, the main thoroughfare in the heart of the Negro district, which extends about five miles. Shooting started near the beach. There was also some shooting in the vicinity of State street. Although illfeeling between the two raceB of the South Side has extended over a period of months, emphasized by bomb explosions, some shooting and numerous fights, Sunday's riots seem to have had their start in petty quarreling at the beach. Reports that NegroeB wandered across the dividing line to the white section of the beach, and that while bathers aused themselves by throw, ing small stones at the Negroee appeared the most plausible cause. Soon after the fighting started a Negro fieri, pursued by a number of whites. He took shelter behind a building and oe. gan shooting at policemen who had joined the pursuit, and who returned the fire. The Negro finally surrender- **- ...

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

A sandwich may be filled with meat, chicken or fish, making a sandwich which is In Itself a meal, or tilled with sweets, a dessert or a dainty to serve with a cup of tea or a glass of cooling beverage. Cold meat put through the meat chopper, wJth a sweet pickle or two and bound together with a salad dressing, makes a good sandwich and one In which leftovers may be used without remarks from the family. Veal and Tongue Sandwlchee.—Put the veal and tongue through t,he meat chopper" and moisten with a small amount of soup stock; season with paprika and nutmeg.

Any kind of meat, mincedjor sliced, mixed with various seasonings such as copers, pickles, nuts or olives will make, with a little Ingenuity of the cook, a countless number of good and appetizing sandwiches. Thinly sliced radishes, cucumbers, onions, chopped green peppers and lettuce make most tasty sandwich fillings. Olives, either stuffed, green Or ripe, may be mixed with nuts and boiled dressing, or added to cream cheese or to cottage cheese. - Cottage cheese with chopped candled cherries (or cream cheese is richer), i r p « * " -^ffrQpt **%nt—.. .. - *HjA*»:~-- -4- IJMil-jl..

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

What had become of the man? He could not help feeling, however, that somehow the little agent would suddenly pop out of the chimney in his room, or sneak In through a crack under the door—and laugh at his fears. Shortly before the noon hour, Peter Ames baited the old automobile from Green Fancy in front of the Tavern and out stepped O'Dowd, followed by no less a personage than the pseudo Mr. Loeb. There were a number of traveling bags in the tonneau of the car. Catching sight of Barnes, the Irishman shouted a genial greeting. "The top of the morning to ye. Ton remember Mr. Loeb, dont you? Mr. Curtis' secretary. Mr. Loeb is leaving us for a few days on business. Good morning, Mr. Boneface," he called out to Putnam Jones who approached at that Juncture. "We are sadly In want of gasoline." Barnes caught the look that the Irishman shot at him out of the corner of his eye. "Perhaps you'd better see that the scoundrels p'on't give us short measure, Mr. Loeb," said O'Dowd.. .Loeb hesitated for a second, and then, evidently in obedience to a command from the speaker's eye, moved off to where Peter was opening the intake. them suspects that she came away with you. There is plenty of evidence that she leb him in through her window—" "Ail ready, O'Dowd,'* called Loeb. "Come along, please," "Coming," said the Irishman. "Don't blame yourself, old man. See you later, Barnes. So longl" CHAPTER XVI. The First Wayfarer Visits a Sfcrine, Confesses, and Takes an Oath. How was he to find the courage to Impart the appalling news to her? He was now convinced beyond all doubt that the so-called Sprouae bad made off with the priceless treasure and that only a miracle could bring about its recovery. He realized to what extent he had been shaped into a tool to be used by the master craftsman. He saw through the whole Machiavellian scheme, and he was also now morally certain that Sprouse would have sacrificed him without the slightest hesitation.

"And now for Chester NalsmltlL It was he wito, acting for the misguided loyalists and recommended by certain young aristocrats who by virtue of their own dissipations had come to know him as a man of Infinite resourcefulness and daring, planned and carried out the pillaging of the palace vaults. Almost under the noses of the foreign guards he succeeded In obtaining the jewels. No doubt he could have made off with them at that time, but he shrewdly preferred 4p have them brought to America by some one else. It gyould have been impossible for him to dispose of them In Europe. You see how cunning he is? "He was no doubt thwarted in his design to waylay me on the road from Spanish Falls by a singular occurrence In this tavern. He_was attacked In his room here, overpowered, bound and gagged by two men. He knew the men. They were thieves as clever and as merciless as himself. They too were watching for me. I do not know how these men learned of my intention to come to Green Fancy." "They came to the Tavern four, or Beauty restore the splendors of the demolished castle, refill the chests of gold that have been emptied by the conquerors, and restock the farms that have been pillaged and devastated.

"Was I wrong in not trying to stop him?" he askfid. She pondered this for a moment "No," she said, but he caught the dubious note in her voice. "It is Just as well, perhaps, that he should disappear. His flight today spares—but we are more interested in the man Sprouse. Has he returned?" "No, Miss Cameron," said he ruefully. And then, without a single reservation, he laid bare the story of Sprouse's defection.

Possibly he led them to believe that you were one of the conspirators. They waited for your arrival and then risked the hazardous trip to Oreen Fancy. They were discovered and shot" - "I believe you are right," she cried. "Then we have accounted for Mr. Sprouse, and I am no longer interested in the unraveling of the mystery surrounding the deaths of Roon and Paul," said Barnes. "There is nothing to keep me here any longer, Miss Cameron. I suggest that you allow me to escort you at once to yopr friends, wherever they—" She was opposed to this plan. While there was still a chance that Sprouse might be apprehended In the neighborhood, or the-possibility of his being caught by the relentless pursuers, she declined to leave.

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

An Inspiration seized him when the chauffeur mentioned the wholesale exodus: he hired Peter forthwith and ordered him to report Immediately— with the car. He was going up to Green Fancy for Miss Cameron's wardrobe. Two minutes after Peter drove up to the Tavern he was on the way back to Green Fancy again, and seated beside him was Thomas Kingsbury Barnes, his new master. There was not a sign of human life about the place. Peter accompanied him upstairs to the room recently occupied by Miss Cameron.

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

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

The use of four er five horses on the double gr.ng plow would accomplish a much greater amount of work than is now performed per man on a majority of farms where the two-horse walking plow is used.

Considerable quantities of wheat will have to wait beyond the usual thrashing time. If left in the shock, It will be damaged by every rain, even to some extent by the dew. The stacking of wheat has fallen into disuse in latter years, but it would be well, the department of agriculture says, for the farmer who Is not certain of prompt thrashing to_ consider it this year.

Eaman, You will excuse me, Mr. Editor, if, with pressure of business and a disinclination t o work in hot weather, I fail to a r r a n g e mv recollections into a collected n a r r a t i v e in t i m e to appear in y o u r publication every week. In relating t h e experiences of my own forbears I am t r y i n g to picture t o t h e present generation some of t h e trials and handicaps which those early settlers had to overcome in preparing i t h e way for the heritage of mode'rn im- j p r o v e m e n t s and conveniences which is, I ours to enjoy. In this day of railroads\ telegraphs, telephones, a u t o m o b i l e , j rural delivery of mail3, etc., let U3 im- j agine ourselves in a new country, twenty- five to forty miles from railroad ac- • commodations with all the other above mentioned, conveniences unheard of^and j perhaps we can realize w h a t was the j life of the pioneers of P u t n a m seventy- j five or eighty years ago. j Speaking of mails, I do not remember j when the postoffice a t Pinckney w a * established, b u t I have letters which were addressed to my mother at Ann . Arbor by school friends a t Geneva before postage'.stamps or envelopes were invented. The letters were folded For some time p a s t t h e question of uniting has been considered by t h e M.

E . church a h d Rev« Henchf t pastor of t h e F e d e r a t e d church at Brighton, explained how t h e movement succeeded in Brighton. Those p r e s e n t a t t h e m e e t i n g were in favor of t h e union and the following committee was elected to further investigate: Messrs. Hoyt, W. H. Clark, C. V. VanWinklei R. K. Elliott, P. H . Swarthout, Ada Clark, Hoyt and Leal Sigler. Tuesday evening of this week a t another meeting, the committee made its report and it was decided to unite the two churches for one year. The f Clear w a s articles of federation will be voted on next Sunday morning. ST.

"You can return later on for your things," he said. "I got 'em tied up in a bundle In the garage, Mr. Burns," he said. "Won't take a second to get 'em out." He hurried around the corner of the house.

I popped down here this afternoon and found out that she is at the sanatorium, hut that - she expects to leave tomorrow morning. I made another trip out there this evening and waited. About eight o'clock Mr. Hasselweln strolled up. He sat on the veranda with her for half an hour flrnso and then left. I followed him. He went to one of the little cottages firat belong to the sanatorium. I couldn't get close enough to hear what they said, but I believe he expects to take her away In an automobile early in the morning. It I" a seventy-mile ride from here to the Junction where they catch the train for the West. I'na going up npw to make a call on Mr. Hasselweln, By the way, what Is the number of your room?" "Twenty-two—on the next floor." "Good. Go upstairs now and Til Join you in about ten minutes. I will tap three times on your door." "Why should you come to ray room, Sprouse? We can say all that Is to be said—" "If you will look on the register you will discover that Mr. J. H. Prosser registered here about half an hour ago. He is In room 30. He left a call for 6v«. o'clock. Well. Prosser is an- •'-.•-• i b-v,•:-.,. Ugo is the one who got the baron—or Roon, as you know him. Now, that is the true story of the little affair. "To go back to my own troubles. When I got out into the hall night before last, after leaving her room, I heard voices whispering In Prince Ugo's room. I beat it up the stairway into the attic. Nothing happened, so I sneaked down to have a peep around. The door to Ugo's room was open, but there was no light on the inside. He came to the door and looked up and down the hall. Then some o**» else came out and started to sneak away. I leave yon to guess the sex. "Nicholas butted in at this unfortunate Juncture. He made the mistake of his life. Ugo Jumped back Into his room. In less than a second he was out again. He landed squarely on Nicholas' back as the fellow turned to escape. I saw the steel flash. Poor old Nick went down in a heap, letting out a horrible yell. Ogo dragged him into the room and dashed back into his own. A moment later he came out again, yelling for help. There was only one thing left for me to do and that was t o get out on the roof if possible, and wait for things to quiet down. I got out through a trap door and stayed there for an hour or so. "Well, to shorten the .story, 1 finally took a chance and slid down to the eaves where I managed to And the limb of a tree big enough to support 1Tie—jUSt as if the Lord had ordered it put there for my special benefit I was soon on the ground, and that meant safety for me. I had heard Ugo I U • ? * - , > v . * . * . turbing problem for him. "Some robbery last night," said that worthy. "Feller up in one of the* cottages at the sanatorium. All beat up, something fierce they say." "Up In— Where?" almost shouted Barnes, starting up. The man explained where the cottages wore situated. "Seems he was to leave by auto early this mornin', and they didn't know anything was wrong till Joe Keep—he's driving a car Mr. Norton has for rent—till .Toe'd been settin' out in front for nearly half an hour. The man's wife was waitln' fer him up at the main bulldin' and she got so tired waitln' that she sent one of the clerks down to see what was keeping her husband. Well, sir, him and Joe couldn't wake the feller, so they climb In an open winder, an' by gosh, Joe says It was terrible. The feller was layin' on the bed, feet an' hands tied and gagged, and blood from head to foot. He was Inconscious, Joe says, an'—my God, how his wife took on! Joe says he couldn't stand It, so he snook out, shakin' like a leaf." "Is—Is the man dead?" cried Barnes, aghast. "Nope! Seems like It's nothtng serious: lust beat up, that's all.

Tommy Gray's car, occupied by the four players, was moving away from the door as he sprang in beside her and slammed the door. Peter's efforts to stay behind Tommy's venerable but surprisingly ener» getic car were the cause of many a gasp and shudder from the couple who sat behind him in the bounding car. He had orders to keep back of Tommy but never to lose sight of his tail light "Are you there?" he whispered. "Yes. Isn't it jolly, ruaning away like this? It must be wonderfully exciting to be a criminal, always dodging and—w "Sht Even a limousine may have ears 1" But if the limousine had possessed a thousand ears they would have been rendered useless In the stormy racket made by Peter's muffler and the thunderous roar of the exhaust as the car got under way. Sixty miles lay between them and Crowmlnle. Tommy Gray guaranteed that the distance could be covered In three hours, even over the vile mountain roads. Ten o'clock would find them at the Grand Palace hotel, none the worse for wear, provided (he always put it parenthetically) they lived to tell the tale! The luggage had gone on ahead of them earlier in the day. Soon after ten o'clock they entered i could uav«j got to him uu tLc vv^y over." Barnes, regardless of consequences, dashed over to inspect the register. Sprouse followed leisurely. "See!" cried Barnes, excitedly, putting his finger on the name "Miss Jones." "She'a In room 32—next to his. By gad, Sprouse, do you suppose he knows that she is here? Would the dog undertake anything—" "You may be sure he dosen't know she's here, or you either, for that matter. The country's full of Joneses and Barneses. Go on upstairs. Leave everything to me." Barnes had been in his room for twenty minutes before he heard the tapping on his door. He opened It and Sprouse slid into the room. The instant the door closed behind him. he threw open his coat and coolly produced a long, shallow metal box, such as one finds In safety vaults. "With my compliments," he said dryly, thrusting the box into Barnes* hands. "You'd- better have the countess check them np and see if they're all there. I am not well enough acquainted with the collection to be positive." Barnes was speechless. He could only stare, open-mouthed, at this amazing man. "My God. Sprouse, have you been in that man's room since I saw you down—" "All you have to do is to keep quiet and look innocent.

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

KEEP MACHINES IN REPAIR Separators Out' of Adjustment Are Cause of Greatest Trouble— Threaherman Should Study Manufacturer's Instructions. (Prepared by the United S t a t e s D e p a r t - m e n t of Agriculture.) Every Important grain state has been losing over a million bushals of grain each year because of Inefficient threshing methods, declare Investigators of the United States department of agriculture. The government, by bringing this enormous loss to the attention of farmers and threshermen and showing them how to avoid It, saved 22,000,000 bushels of grain In the 21 states in which the educational work was carried on last year. When an average of eight bushels of grain Is lost on every farm In the United States at threshing time every year, that loss begins to have a personal meaning.

Unthreshed heeds -are often found in the tailing*, Thla results from missing or brdkeft teeth, or teeth too far apart, not centered, or badly worn; concave set too tow, or concave with not enough teeth. The speed of the cylinder also causes many unthreshed heads. Damp, unripe or moldy grain requires more than normal speed of the cylinder to thresh It out welL Operator Should Know Machine. Grain Is lost through the Improper adjustment of other parts of the separator as well as, the cylinder, so it is evident that the operator must be thoroughly familiar with the entire machine. It may not be possible to save all the grain now lost, but the careless operator who does not know how to adjust the different parts of his machine will waste a great amount unnecessarily. He will surely have to make frequent stops for adjustment Every time a machine stops the whole crew must be fdle until It starts again —a loss of time to everybody concerned. Manufacturers furnish Instruction books on the care and operation of their threshing machine. They have spent years In experimenting, and they know how their machines should be run to secure the most satisfactory results, A great deal of the trouble experienced by the thresherman is due to his disregard of or even neglect to read the manufacturers' instructions. There are other ways In which grain can be saved, but the proper operation of the separator is the most important. Efficient operation of the threshing machine should interest both threshermen and farmers. Decrease In Prices of Horses. Horses under one year of age on /arms in Canada averaged $56 a head in price in 1918 against $57 in 1917; horses one to less thap three years old, $112, against $116 in 1917; and horses three years old and over, $102, against $167 in 1917.

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

FATONIC Large pile shows grain wasted while threshing 2</2 bushels—8 pints In this instance. Small pile shows grain wasted after adjustments had been made to machine—less than 1 pint. The unnecessary loss of 7 pints occurred every two minutes the separator was in operation. This means that 4[/2 Pe»" cent of the grain was lost. vent that loss, If possible. And It is entirely possible. The chief source of loss Is the Inefficient operation of threshing machines. Any standard threshing machine will do satisfactory work If kept in repair and operated intelligently. If the operator knows his machine, and sees that It Is properly adjusted and opcrated, grain will come through clean und losses will be small. The fanner should know enough about the general operation of a threshing machine to dcicc* po<-"* wnrir which means a dicrease of crops valued at $4.69 a ton for the manure used. The application was made at the rate of eight tons of manure an acre during a five-year rotation of corn, wheat, oats, clover and timothy. Two applications of four tons each were made, one for corn and one for clover. Manure used in connection with continuous grain cropping did not maintain the yields, but when used In connection with crop rotation the yields of all crops were Increased.

"He'd spot a pigeon on the wing quicker than he'd see an airplane, especially if he'd got a bet on It. What I want yer to rure is his short-sightedness when he's looking for a job.

GAPES IN LITTLE CHICKENS Disease Kills More Young Fowls Than Any Other Ailment—Dlscour. ages Poultry Keeping. Probably more little chickens are killed by gap€»s than by any other one disease. On nearly every farm at Tefi'fiTn fi-w chickens die every spring nf this trouble, and on mnny farms the loss Is so great as to discourage the keeping of poultry. For Two Weeks Give Mixture of Cornmeal, Middlings, Bran, Meat Scrap and Green Feed. Before marketing the ducks, fatten for two weeks on a mixture of three pounds comraeal, two pounds middlings, one pound bran, one pound meat scrap, one pound green feed, three per cent grit. Moisten with sour milk or buttermilk. Feed quite wet Culling the Flock. Culling not only requires thorough knowledge of the fowls, but there Is a sentimental side involved in this matter of sorting; for the poultryman who succeeds usually Is the one who hecomes attached to h!a pets, and regards them as old friends. Beef Cattle. Raising heef cattle is likely to at* tract the attention of farmers who rr.ise considerable feed and who have some pasture. Prices of prime beef steers are likely to remain high and perhaps go higher. Caring for Grain Sacks. With grain sacks almost a dollat apiece, and not a wonderful quality at that, surely one of the leaks on the farm—a leak that was once called a small one—can be stopped by taking care of the bags. Pasture for Pigs. Figs nre hearty eaters. As soon as they get old enough to eat they should be fed liberally. They soon begin to eat green food, and for that reason they need pasture. ^gbH£iE£^L5d3i Where the Damage Was.

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