If the child is Undernourished lie cannot withstand childhood's infectious diseases. The well nourished child may not escape diseases, but he can at least escape disastrous after effects. j Many mothers fail to realize tlinti their children are really ill, as a result of poor nutrition. They think the! fH'&i THE UNIVERSAL CAR Compare Motor Car Values ," I-i": w Think of a Ford Sedan with starter and demountable rims—* really high class car having all the comforts and conveniences that go along with an enclosed job selling for $660.

When these conditions exist, a child's condition is really serious. The delicate child must he made robust. Malnutrition makes the child susceptible to tuberculosis and retards his mental development. If your child does not eat well, sleep well, study well, and feel well, it is time to make a serious study of his ciiet. Improper nutrition may he to blame.

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

But in the case of many of us how faint that mark, and How liable it is to disappear. If only the kindly dispositions born at Christmas time could be perpetuated, how permanently different the world would become! Most of us become faint of heart when we think of rebuilding the life of the world. To build a world without any extremes of wealth and poverty in it, how difficult To build a world without any domestic tragedy ln it, how difficult. To build a world without any industrial friction or in* ternational strife in it, how difficult Many people are ready to Bay that It is quite impossible. Perhaps it is. Tet It would not be if only men and worn* en would keep on cultivating the dispositions that are born at Christmas time. What is needed for the rebuilding -^ctTurymte^y^taarTy^gretreqr new world organization is needed. A world that has been organized for war must be organized for peace. For the rebuilding of" the world better Instruments are needed. But what is supremely needed is a better spirit! If only you and I and all our neighbors would persistently cultivate the Christmas spirit, our children's children would live in a far better world. For then it would be only a question of time until we should discover the instruments needed for the fashioning of a fairer civilization, and we would be willing to use these instruments as soon as they could be developed. What a pity, then, if Christmas this year should come and go and leave none of us permanently different. We need to perpetuate the Christmas spirit in our homes. It is a solemn moment when two human lives are united for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, In sickness and in health, till death do them part. As Jane Welch Carlyle once said, "If ever one is to pray, if ever onp is to feel grave, if ever one Is to shrink from vain show and bubble, It is just on the occasion when two human beings bind themselves together till death do them part.** There is nothing that more nearly resembles the heaven of our dreams than does a happy home. Is there any» thing that so surely suggests the hell of our secret dread as does an unhappy home? What is needed to build a home? Money is needed, but how much more than money! Money can "" build a house—a wonderful and wonderfully furnished house. Only love can build a home. We need to perpetuate the Christmas spirit in Industry. For generations, now, the motive of profit has been the motive appealed to both in the case of men who had money to invest, and In the case of men who had strength or skill to in* vest, In the industries of the world. This motive of profit has been given a long trial. And it has failed—tragically failed Its fruitage is a world catastrophe, and, at this present moment world-wide unrest * Why not try the experiment of oppealing to a different.motive? The mo- !—• , , A •^iMT^n., - - ^ . - munity. WThat If every man who learns a trade should say to himself: As a carpenter, or bricklayer, or type-setter, or molder, my primary object Is, to render service. I am entitled to a Just proportion of the product of my labor, and I hope to get it. But my first concern shall be to serve my community. Do you think that men are incapable of responding to any such motive as that? How, then, do you account' for the martyrdom of history? How do you account for the men who have given their lives to the pursuit of truth? Or for the women who have given their lives to the dissemination of knowledge? How do you account for the world's scientists and for its school teachers? And the men who made a rendezvous with death at Belleau wood and the Argonne forest— bow doj'oiLjicc^uftt-for them? There is a divinity in human hearts to which heroic unselfishness makes powerful appeal. Why not try the experiment of appealing to the nobler side of human nature? .The motive of profit has tragically failed. Why not appeal to the motive of service? We need to perpetuate the spirit of Christmas in international relationships. The nations of Christendom have been motived far more by Nietzsche's will to power than by Jesus' will to serve. Their conception Of greatness has been a pagan, not a Christian conception. The great nation has been thought of as a nation able to lord it over other nations, not as a nation eager to serve other nations. The proud symbols of the Wesjtsfen world have been swords and scepters, not basins and towels. But "Lo, all our pomp of yesterday Is one with Nineveh and Tyre!" Surely the meaning of this present hour is clear: Nations must do unto others as they would have other nations do unto them. Nations must enter into the world's life not merely to get something, but to give something, and, in some international association, even to risk something in the interest of wtorid justice and world peace. For the first time in history the nations of the world are looking consciously into the eyes of Jesus, and know It to be true that He alone has the secret of life.

Concerning the needs of American farmers the President -had t h i s to s a y : "Something more than tariff protec* tion la required by American agriculture* T o the farm has come) the earlier and t h e heavier burdens of readjustment There Is actual depression In our agricultural industry, while agricultural prosperity Is absolutely essential t o t h e general pros* perity of the country. "Congress h a s sought very earnestly to provide r e l i c t It h a s promptly given such temporary relief a s has been p o s - sible, but the call la insistent tor t h e Cirmanent solution. It is inevitable that rge crops lower the prices and short crops advance them. No legislation can cure that fundamental law. B u t there must be some economic solution for the excessive variation in returns for agricultural production.

Co-operation A d v o c a t e d . "In the main, the remedy lies in distribution and marketing. Every proper encouragement should be given to the cooperative marketing programs. These have proven very helpful to the co-operating communities in Europe. In Russia the co-operative community h a s become the recognised bulwark ot law and order, and saved individualism from engulfment in social paralysis. Ultimately they will be accredited with the salvation of the Russian state. "There is an appeal for this experiment. Why not try it? N o one challenges the right ot the farmer to a larger share of the consumers' pay for his product, no one disputes that we can not live without the farmer.

Given a fair return for his labor, he will have less occasion to appeal for financial aid, and given assurance; that his labors shall not be In vain, we reassure all the people of a production sufficient to meet our national requirement and guard against disaster."

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

The stain can then ba applied evenly with a brush, care being taken to follow tha grain of tha wood. After two or tart* applications, allowlnf a few daytf interval between each, tbey wtll resemble the beat of polished oak and be most effective. They can ba kept fa perfect order by being dusted, and they catnn bbee ppooUlisi hed up beautifully. Famous i ular In quantity and quality.

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

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

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

We must admit, however, that these requirements add to the expense as well.

The same milk tester can be used to demonstrate before fifty as well as five; the same library hook cun as well spend most of its time in the hands of-the "pupils iTs~on the' shelf; and a teacher will be enabled to accomplish vastly more teaching thirty pupils in one or two grades than the same number in eight. The federal government and the state are willing to help pay the expense of maintenance when the consolidation has been completed.

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

De Valera, in a statement issued after an intense inter-cabinet struggle, declared that he must refuse to recommend the treaty for acceptance by the Dail Eireann. In his stand he was supported by Cathal Baugh and Austin Stack, ministers of home affairs and defense. The remainder of the cabinet is said to have favored the treaty.

CHECKING UP ON DELINQUENTS About $400,000 Still Due From Corporations of State. Lansing—Following the supreme court decision, establishng the validity of the state corporation tax> law, a special force of clerks in the department of state is busy checking up delinquent corporations. It is estimated by the department officials that In the neighborhood of $400,000 is still due the state from corporations which failed to pay at the prescribed time. Penalties including suspension of corporate rights in extreme cases and a fine of $100 plus an additional penalty of $5 for each day of deliquency, Marquette,—Warden Theodore B. Catlin and three of hie staff at the State House of Correction and Brandt Prison here were stabbed In a fight with Arthur "Gypsy Bob" Harper, Jasper Perry and Charles Roberts, Detroit long-term inmates, who started a riot in the prison chapel Sunday morning by attacking the warden during a moving picture show. The victims of Harper's fresh out? break of vengeance toward the admin* istration of the prison are lying in a local hospital in a serious condition. Catlin was wounded nine times by the convict's knife. The deputy was cut and beaten badly. Young Menhennit was stabbed through the lung. All have been placed under the care of the best physicians in this city. In solitary confinement, awaiting flogging, that has been ordered by Charles Blaney, chairman of the prison commission, are Harper, Jasper Perry, lifer, and Charles Roberts, a 20-year man, both of Detroit, who assisted Harper. So surprised was the warden at the attack that his efforts to counter the criminal's passes with the knife were futile. Catlin went down. Prisoners stampeded, while the more loyal ones came to the rescue of the endangered officials. Harper directed his attack at the warden, against whom he has harbored a dislike since he was denied a transfer to Jackson Prison after his sensational escape from the institution here recently. The other prisoners leaped at Menhennit and his son. Rioting continued until Charles Muck, a guard on the outer wall, was summoned by Sam Foard, a lifer.

A sample of oats from the Province of Alberta, weighing 48 pounds to the bushel, was the heaviest sample in the show. It was Alberta oats that took the sweepstakes, the exhibitor In this case, J. W. Lucas, of Cayley, repeating what he did last/year. In wheat there were 25 first prizes to be awarded; Canada got 28 of them. The greatest interest was shown when the horse classes were called. Here also Canada stood well to the front. The Percheron entries showed that Canada breeders were popular and successful exhibitors. Championships were awarded to a number, ant first prizes were common. The same may be said of Clydesdales.

She tells him of strange murders and robberies of which she suspects a band headed by Peterson and Henry Laklngton. She 'fears her father is involved. Drummond goes to The Larches, lilss Benton's home, next door to The Elms, Peterson's place. Petersea and Laklngton stop his car and leek him over. While dining with Phyllis and her father Drummond leevee The Larch ee and explores The Elms. He discovers Lakington sad Peterson using a thumbscrew en Hiram Potts, who signs a paper. Drummond secures half the paper, rescues him after a struggle and takes him to his own home. Petereon calls and demands the half of the torn paper and Potts. Hugh laughs at him. CHAPTER III—Continued. There was something to Incredibly menacing in the soft, quiet voice that Drummond looked at the speaker fascinated. He had a sudden feeling that he must be dreaming—that In a moment or two he would wake up and find that they had really been talking about the weather the whole time. Then the cynical gleam of triumph in Peterson's eyes acted on him like a cold douche. "Your candor Is as refreshing," he Mtniallg "aa vmir sltrn^eg. "And la order to get b i n there, we most get rid of the watcher without How can we get rid of the bird—how can we, James, I aek yea? Why, by giving htm nothing further to watch for. Once let him think that Potts Is no longer within, unless he's an imbecile be will no longer remain without »Now trot along over, Jamea, and give my compliments to Mr. Darrell. Ask him to come in and see me for a moment. Say, I'm thinking and daren't move." • Jamea rose obediently, and Drummond heard him cross over the passage to the other suite of rooms that lay on the same floor. Then he heard the murmur of voices, and shortly afterward his servant returned. "He la in his bath, sir, but he'll come over as soon as he's finished." He delivered the message and stood waiting. "Anything more, s i r r "Yea, James. I feel certain that there's a lot But just to carry on with, I'll have another .glass of beer." As the door closed, Drummond rose and started to pace up and down the room. The plan he had in his mind was simple, but he was a man who believed in simplicity. "Peterson will not come himself— nor will our one and only Henry.. Potts has not been long in the country, which la all to the good. And if it fails—we shan't be any worse off than we are now. Luck—that's all; and the more you tempt her, the kinder she is." He was still talking gently to himself when Peter Darrell atroUed into the room. "Can this thing be true, old boy," remarked the newcomer. "I hear you're in the throes of a brain-storm." "I am, Peter. I want you to help me.M "All that I have, dear old flick, is yours for the asking. What can I do?" "Well, first of all, I want you to come along and s e e the household pet." He piloted'Darrell along the passage to the American's room, and approvingly. "To think there are still people who think military service a waste of t i m e r he murmured. "Four years ago you couldn't have got one word of It right" He dismissed Denny, and sat down at hie desk. First he took the halftorn sheet out, of his pocket, and putting It in an envelope, sealed <H Harmfully. Then he placed it in another envelope, with a covering letter to his bank, requesting them to keep the inclosure Intact Then he took a sheet of notepaper, and with much deliberation proceeded to pen a document which afforded him considerable amusement judging by the grin which appeared from time to time on his face. This effusion he also enclosed in a sealed envelope, which he again addressed to his bank. Finally, he stamped the first but not the second—and placed them both in bis pocket. With the departure of the Dennys for Paddlngton, which coincided most aptly with the return of Peter Darrell, a period of activity commenced in Half Moon street But being interior activity, Interfering in no way with the placid warmth of the street outside, the gentleman without, whom a keen observer might have thought strangely interested in the beauties of that well-known thoroughfare—seeing thai he had been there for three hours —remained serenely unconscious of it. His pal had followed the Dennys to Paddlngton. Drummond had net come out—and the watcher who watched without was beginning to get bored. About 4:30 he sat up and took notice as some one left the house; but it was only the superbly dressed young man whom he had discovered already was merely a clothes-peg calling himself Darrell The sun was getting low and /the shadows were lengthening when a drove up to the door. Immedia the watcher drew closer, only to stop doctor said no alcohol and very little meat" His voice died away, and he rose slowly to his feet In the open door four men were standing, each with a peculiar-shaped revolver in his hand. "What the devil," cried Drummond furiously, "la the meaning of this?" "Cut it out." cried the leader contemptuously. ' "These guns are silent If you utter—you die. Do you get me?" The veins stood out on Drummond's forehead, and he controlled himself with an Immense effort "Are you aware that this man is a guest of mine, and sick?" he said, his voice shaking with rage. "You don't say,** remarked the leader, and one of, the others laughed. "Rip the bed-clothes off, boys, and gag the young cock-sparrow." Before he could resist, a gag was thrust in Drummond's mouth and his hands were tied behind his back. Then, helpless and impotent he watched three of them lift up the man from the bed, and putting a gag in his mouth also, carry him out of the room. "Move," said the fourth to Hugh. "Ton Join the picnic." A large car drove up as they reached the street and in less time than It takes to tell, the two helpless men were pushed 1&, followed by the leader; the door was shut and the car drove off. "Don't forget" he aaid to Drummond suavely, "this gun is silent You had better be the same." At one o'clock the car swung up to The Elms. For the last/Ten minutes Hugh had been watching the invalid ID the corner, who was m efforts to loosen his ga were rolling horribly, an om side to side in bis _ bandages round his hands held firm and at last he gave it up.

"Take that man away," he said abruptly to the servant who came inte the room, •'and put him to bed. I will consider what to do with him In the morning." "Consider be d—d," howled Mul lings, starting forward angrily. "You'll consider a thick ear, Mr. Blooming Know-all. What 1 wants to know—** The words died away in his mouth, and he gazed at Peterson like a bird looks at a snake. There was something so ruthlessly malignant in the stare of the gray-Mue eyes that tho ex-soldier who had viewed going over the top with comparative equanimity as being part of his Job quailed and looked apprehensively at Drummond. "Do what the kind gentleman tells you, Mulllngs," Raid Hugh, "and go to bed." He ut a cigarette, and thoughtfully blew out a cloud of smoke. ^- "Stop this fooling," snarlec?MF*eterson. "Where have you hidden I'otts?" "Tush, tush," murmured Hugh. "You surprise me. I had formed such n charming mental picture of you, Mr. Peterson, as the strong, silent man who never lost his temper, and here you are, disappointing me at the beginning of our acquaintance.** For a moment he thought that Peterson was going to strike'hi.ts. and his own fist clenched undpr the table.

Slowly Peterson sank hack it ?.*! chair, and the veins which hart hoen standing out on his fnrohend became normal again. He even smiled: ot.*r the ceaseless tapping of Ids hand or his left knee betrayed his momentary loss of composure. Drummond's fls unclenched, and he stole a look at the girl.

At the other end stood Denny, ostentatiously dusting a book-shelf, and Peterson gfanced at him casually. It was characteristic of the man that no trace of annoyance •howed on his face. He might have been an ordinary visitor taking his leave. And then suddenly from the room outside which Denny was dnsting there came a low moaning and an Incoherent babble. A Quick frown passed over Drummond's face, and Peterson regarded him thoughtfully "An Invalid in the house?" he remarked. "How inconvenient for you !" He laid his hand for a moment on the soldier's arm. "I sadly fear you're going to make a fool of yourself. And -It—wJlL_be_such a_plty.'' He turned toward' the stairs.

He was under no delusions as to the risks he was running. Underrating his opponent had never been a fault of his, either in the ring or In Prance, and he had no intention of beginning now. The man who could abduct an American millionaire, and drug him till he was little better than a baby, and then use a thumbscrew * » < to enforce his wishes, was not likely to prove over-scrupulous in the future. After a while he began half-unconeclously to talk aloud to himself. "Two alternatives, old buck,** he remarked, stabbing the air with hit pipe. " O n e - give the Potts bird up at Berners street; two—do not Number one— out of court s t once. Preposterousabsurd. Therefore—number two holds the Sold." He rang the bell.

What's the matter with him?" he cried. "I would give a good deal to know," said Hugh grimly. Then he smiled reassuringly at the motionless man, and led the way back to the sittingroom. "Sit down, Peter," he said. "Get outside that beer and listen to me carefully." For ten minutes he spoke, while his companion listened In silence. Gone completely was the rather vacuousfaced youth clad in a gorgeous dressing- gown ; in his place there sat a keen-faced man nodding from time to time as a fresh point was made clear. At length Hugh finished. "Will you do It old man?" he asked. "Pf course," returned the other. "But wouldn't It be better. Hugh," be said pleadingly, "to whip up two or three of the boys ard have a real scrap? I don't seem to have anything to do." Drummond shook his head decidedly. "No, Peter, my boy—not this show.

Darrell rose. *Rlght you are, dearie. Tour instructions shall be carried out to the letter. Come and feed your face with me." "Not today," said Hugh.

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

Ungag him, Irma—and untie his hands. Sly very dear young friend—you pain me." "I wish to know, Mr. Peterson," said Hugh quietly, "by what right this dastardly outrage has been committed. A friend of mine, sick in bed—removed, abducted in the middle of the night: to say nothing of me." With a gentle laugh Irma offered h4n+-a-cigarette. "Man Dieu '" she remarked, "but you are most gloriously ugly, my Hugh!" Peterson, with a faint smile, opened the envelope in his hand. And, even as he pulled out the contents, he paused suddenly and the smile faded from-his face. From the landing upstairs came a heavy crash, followed by a flood of the most appalling language. "What the h—1 do you think you're doing, you fiat-faced son of a Maltese goat? And where the h—1 am I, anyway?" "I must apologize for my friend's bating society," remarked Hugh reuil- "rtlscently. "But I was never much good. I'm too obvious for argument I'm afraid." "You probably realhte from Wfc«< has happened tonight." continued Pe terson. "that I am in earnest." "I Khould be sorry to think so." an swered Hugh. "If that Is the beet you can do, I'd cut it right out and start a tomato farm." The girl gave a little gurgle cf laughter and lit another rlpnrette. "Will you come and do the danger ous part of the work for us, Mn*«leui Hugh?" she asked. r "If you promise to restrain the little fallows, I'll water them with phase re." returned Hugh lightly. Peterson rose and walked over 3* the window, where he stood motionless, staring out into the darUnea* Hugh renlteed that trie situation was "what In military phraseology~nilght h« termed critical.

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

The other three, Hocking, American, and Stetneman and Von Qratz, Ger* mane, all millionaires, agree to the aeheme, providing another man, Hiram Potta, An American, is taken Ua C*pt Hugh (Bull-Dog) Drumseond, a retired officer advertises :tm work that will give him excitement, signing "X10." A* a result be meeta Phyllis Benton, a young woman who answered his ad. She tell* him of strange murders and robberies by a band headed by Carl Beterson and Henry Lakington. She fears her father is involved. Drumroond goes to The Larches, Miss Benton's home, next door to The Sas, Peterson's place. During the ht Drummond leaves The Larches and explores The Elms. R e discovers Lakington and Peter- . sen using a thumbscrew on Potta, Who signs a paper. Drummond rescues Potts and takes him to his own home. He also gets half the paper, torn in the struggle. Peterson visits Drummond, departing with a threat to return and recover Potts and also the torn paper which Potts signed. The band abduct Hugh and a friend he has substituted for Potts and take them to The Elms. Peterson is furious over the mistake. •Si' CHAPTEB IV—Continued. A fixed determination to know what lay In that sinister brain replaced his temporary indecision. Events up to date had mowed go quickly that he had hardly had time to get his bearings; •ran [Bow the last twenty-four hours seemed almost a dream. And as he looked at the broad back and massive kead of the man at the window, and from him to the girl Idly smoking on the sofa, he smiled a little grimly. He had just remembered the thumbscrew _„ erf the preceding evenlne. Assuredly g-«nrnrT88rTy*Ti, -T-MH and switched on the light Then she faced him smiling, and Hugh looked at her steadily. "Tell me, you ugly man," she murmured, "why you are such a fool." Hugh smiled, and as has been said before, Hugh's smile transformed his face. "I must remember that opening," he said. "It establishes a basis of intimacy at once, doesn't It?" She swayed a little toward him, and then, before he realized her intention, she put a hand on his shoulder. "Don't you understand," she whispered fiercely, "that they'll kill you?" She peered past him half fearfully, and then turned to him again. "Go, you Idiot, go—while there's time. Get out of It—go abroad; do anything— but don't fool round here." "It seems a cheerful household," remarked Hugh with a smile. "May. I ask why you're all so concerned about me? Your estimable father gave me the same advice yesterday morning." "Don't ask why," she answered feverishly, "because I can't tell you. Only you must believe that what I say Is the truth—you must. It's just possible that if you go now and tell them where you've hidden the American you'll be all right But If you don't—" Her hand dropped to her side suddenly, "Breakfast will be at nine* ray Hugh: until then, an revoir." He turned as she left the room, a little puzzled by her change of tone. Standing at the top of the stairs was Peterson, watching them both in silence. . • • TWO. In the days when Drammend bad been a platoon commander he had done many dangerous things. The ordinary Joys of the infantry subaltern's life—such as going over the top, and carrying out raids—had not proved fMfflfllffitfnnfnr hl&yiiapnfttltp He.-haftpatrol never found anything. But whatever the report, Hugh Drummond only grlnnned and saw to his men's breakfast Which is why there are in England today quite a number of civilians who acknowledge only two rulers—the King and Hugh Drummond, And they would willingly die for either. The result on Drummond was not surprising; as nearly as a man may be he was without fear. And when the idea came to him as he sat on the edge of bis bed thoughtfully pulling off his shoes, no question of the possible risk entered into his mind. To explore the house seemed the most natural thing In the world, and with characteristic brevity he summed up the situation as it struck him. "They suspect me anyhow: in fact, they know I took Potts. Therefore, even If they catch me passage creeping, I'm no worse off than I am now. And I might find something of interest. Therefore, carry on, brave heart" It wag dark in the passage outside as he opened the door of his room and crept toward the top of the stairs. The collar of his brown lounge coat was turned up, and his stocking feet made no sound on the heavy pile carpet. Like a huge shadow he vanished Into the blackness, feeling his way forward with the uncanny instinct that comes from much practice. Every now and then he paused and listened intently, but the measured ticking of the clock below and the occasional creak of a board alone broke the stillness. To the. left lay the room In which he had spent the evening, and Drummond turned to the right. As he had gone up to bed he had noticed a door screened by a heavy curtain which he thought might be the room Phyllis Benton had spoken of—the room where Henry Laklngton kept his illgotten treasures. He felt his way along the wall, and at length his hand touched the curtain—only to drop It •™^jftwtffAifliiinr>i uj.EKfiimi^VWWmhfVtMWr -Mm ore*** *# it if, avwltt be eery stiff for some days- Another time—don't laugh, tt's dangerey*."

At eight o'clock the aert morning a burly looking ruffian brought In some hot water aud a cup of tea. Aa he pulled up the blinds the light fell full on hit battered, rugged face, and suddenly Hugh sat up la had and stared at him. "Good Lord 1" be cried, "aren't you Jem Smith?" The man swung round like a flash and glared at the bed. "Wot the 'ell 'a* that got to do wtv you?" he snarled, and then his face changed. "'Why, strike me pink, If it aln'fr young Drummond.** Hugh grinned. "Right In one, Jem. What in the name of fortune are you doing in this .outfit? Given up the game?" , "It give me up, when that cross-eyed son of a gun Young Baxter fought that cross down at 'Oxton. Gawd I if I could j get the swine—just once again— .s'welp me. I'd—" Words failed the ex- ,bruiser; he could only mutter. Hugh smiled. "By the way, has anyone got a stiff neck in the house this morning?" "Stiff neck!" echoed the man. "Strike me pink if that ain't funny— cmim over .:fi**%.

"You ane also the type of mail who wttl continue on the path he has start ed. You are completely in the, dark; you have no idea whatever what you are up against." He amfied grimly, and turned abruptly on Hugh. "You fool—-you stupid young fool. Do you really Imagine that you. can beat me.$" The soldier rose and stood jn front ,of him. '•*•*! have a few remarks of my own to make," he answered, "and then we might consider the interview dosed. I ask nothing better than that the gloves should be off—though with your filthy methods of fighting, anything you touch will get very dirty. As you say, I am completely in the dark as to your plans; but I have a pretty shrewd Idea what I'm up against. Men who can employ a thumbscrew on a poor defenseless brute seem to me to be several degrees worse than an aboriginal cannibal, and therefore if 1 put you down as one of the lowest types of degraded criminal I shall not be very wide of the mark. There's no good you snarling at me, you swine; it does everybody good to hear some Lome truths—and don't forget It was you who pulled off the gloves." . Drummond lit a cigarette; then his merciless eyes fixed themselves,again on Peterson. "There is only one thing more,"Jis continued. "You have kindly warned^ me of my danger; let me give you a .word of advice In my turn. I'm going to fight you; if I can; I'm going to beat you. Anything that may happen to me is part of the game.

For a few moments there was si* lence, and then with a short ^laugh Drummond turned away. "Shall wa meet again soon.?" He paused at the door and looked back.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

They had an idea before coming here that the influx of immigrants and some other things which have produced continental Sundays In our great cities, also have Changed the face of the whole countryside. They say they have found they were mistaken, and that the moral suasion element In America Is still the dominant one, and Is militant for things It thinks are righteous. The foreigners seemingly have taken sharp notice of .^the nature of the American elements which are active in support of procedure along lines lead- Ing to a reduction of armament What is called the church element Is particularly marked In its Influence here and lr Its methods of exercising It.

The mass sentiment of the United States seems to be strong for the success of the conference, and probably, It Is knowledge of this that is responsible'for the word that the President already is looking with unconcern upon SiusnrtK l8oodh*&a™g i^^aBteed"^ asrouttg which have come upon his policy from some men of bis own political party. Attacks Proving Futile, It probably has been the thought of the forces of assault that some of their poison gas shells would drive the foreigners out of their positions, would force confusion and eventually would compel them to retire from the field with the object unachieved for which they came together. Seemingly the result has been in reverse. The various delegates, including the American delegation, apparently have been strongbened In their desire for real achievement by the attempts to weaken their position and to undermine the ideal which bad brought them together. It probably has been rather a happy thing for the good of the cause that the substantial -elements of the American population have urged limitation of armaments Instead*of actual disarmament, thereby differentiating themselves from other elements, luckily weaker ones, which have been urging complete disarmament for America* no matter what the rest of the world might do.

Taking it ail In all the Dutch are the best linguists in Washington. The Hollander can talk almost any known language, apparently, and he does it well. The Dutch gave a reception a night or two ago to the writers here, and the gathering was addressed by the chief delegate from Holland. If any auditor did not know in advance what delegation It was of which he was the guest, he would have supposed that his hosts were Englishmen, or possibly Americans. The Dutch spokesmen here speak English with barely a trace of a Netherlands accent. The Dutch envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary to Washington- Is absent from his post Just at present.

It Is unlike other newspapers In a good many respects, for It does not content itself with giving the news of the world of today only, but seta forth the accumulated newt of a good many days In brief and pertinent manner. The success of thus paper may be judged by the fact that it has a circulation for each edition of 8,506,000 copies. This British newspaper proprietor, like Greene, the historian of the English people, spends every day "learning." He Is Interested in everything pertaining to his profession, and of course is Interested in other matters just as much.

W*«»8»to* Dumber 28 1921 * . ' ' ' • *mmm ^^ i ... . . J . ; , - .^."..'!_ ',»lfVo-j' i^fe--•'•...:• V^-1 When 192} was ushered in with the usual accompaniment of good cheer there WM no unusual aiqounjt of re joking in Pinckney. The busincsa part of the town had been partially devastated by ftrect the village streets £|were in darkness and there would have been discouragement If 4kf re were not TOjfectte* prospects for-.the future. : Hut the dawn that always comes after, darkness came to. Pinckney during 1921, and. the village has made \x\or-t Mjreai, tangible progress during the past jyear than ever happened before dur~ jing a twelve months period. J The DetroU Kdison Company com* jpieted its preliminary work here and now the churches, homes, business places and streets are well lighted and Pinckney can offer inducements for ^manufacturing with electric power that never could have been made previous to 1921. ' 1921 has seen the completion of the fire system, so that now the village is am{ky protected by fire apparatus and Storage reservoirs. \ The fire boys haye been rolled out several times add have~alrr,£y saved enough property in and near the village to prove beyond argument to the very few who were opposed, that the expenditure was justified. The fire b^all has.been built and is now occupied by the engine and apparatus. This building fills one gap in West Main Street. • The prospect of a manufacturing plant? operated by Henry Fprd has been strengthened during tine year. *Mr. Ford has bought the mitt site and gutter rjgh.tSi, engineers ha^M^fe^k. THE UNIVERSAL-CAR Busy People]« Fully equipped with electric starter, demountable rims, extra rims, and non skid tires all around. F. o. a •m IK < V •v. i; %* I Five Hundred and Ninety Five Dollar*-—Can you conceive of such a low price for such a high class enclosed car ? The Ford Coupe has always been a, popular car for the man or woman keeping appointments, whether social, business or professional, because it is always ready for use and gets there on time with comfort and convenience to its occupants. It is even more popular now at its new low price of $59&00. Order today for reasonably prompt delivery. Terms if desired. • * . •••«*?•'tl >r* oughly cleaned and- the prospects are that the work will go ahead soon. Many miles of real estate have been made and property is in good demand. Outsiders are looiU»g„our way aru| are! ttmfiiimenting the villaftfe'peaple on the improved appearance of the village. The-Masonic ledge of Pinckney now occupies the new home which is more1 commodious and convenient than the old one which Was burned. They have also two stores which, with the Thomas I R^rad store are now being decorated [^ad are the show buildings of the business section. , Pinckney has made a big stride forward during the past year and only awaits the actual ' operations on the Ford plant to begin to see a boom started here that may place the village far ahead of the dreams of those whose optimism is now only moderate. Perhaps the greatest change in Pinckney is the spirit of optimism which now prevails instead of the discouragement SQ much in evidence before.

M. of Trinity college, Cambridge, a minister of the Church of England and a Puritan on his way across the Atlantic to the Massachusetts Bay colony. There was no church for him, since the only three In existence—Boston, Salem and Watertown—had efficient ministers. So he~^ggs~one~of the "orlginal planters" of Wethersfleld, Conn., and a "watcher," 1634-40. Then he was one of the founders of Milford, New Haven plantation. Next he was <t magistrate representing Milford in the New, Haven colony and also charged with the duty of dividing land. Meanwhile he preached wherever opportunity offered. In 1647 he became the minister of the Watertown church. There he preached till his death In 3385.

Incidentally he also found time to marry twice. Cotton Mather in his "Magnalla Christl Americana," says he had 26 children; this is a misstatement hut he did have 16. His epitaph in Latin on the tombstone in East Waltham, Mass* thus sums up his life: - "Sacred to the memory of John Sherman, a man distinguished for piety, character and truth; a profound theologian; as a preacher a veritable Cnr^spstcm; unsurpassed In his knowledge of the liberal arts, particularly mathematics; a faithful pastor of the Church,of Watertown In New Bngtand; an overseer nnd fellow of Harvard coUege.

Though in folly and in blindness ,And in sorrow still we grope, Yet In man's increasing kindness Lies the world's stupendous hope. And it is a reasonable request to every red-blooded, thinking, patriotic American. §uch a man knows that nobody can stand still; that he has either to progress or fall back. The progressive man accepts responsibilities as the measure of his capabilities. He never shirks them, for he recognizes ID them the price he must pay for advancement. Competition is going to be keen this year. The dollar is going to be hard to get. Men who have been getting twice what they were before and have had lots of money to spend are going to feel the pinch. It looks as it everybody who works for a living will have to work a little harder. It may be that life will seem hard. But what of it? Life has always been hard— perhaps it was meant to be. Anyway, it Is something that b«s got to be lived and mastered. It's the business of men "to greet the unseen with a cheer" and "to advance on chaos and the dark." Of course all of us cannot have a hand in the big things that must be done in meeting the challenge of 1922. But If all of us do the little things we may, 1922 will Indeed be the "Happy New Year" of our greetings. and sober. Medical philosophers are unanimous in declaring Uiut we Americans live too hard and too fust; that our rapid ways are harmful both to the IttUlviduul and to the ruce; Uiut we should slow up. We are, to use tlia homely old phrase, burning the candle at both ends. Men try to succeed In business, to rule in politics, to be- social leaders—ull nt the many liiuo. To crowd dlsblinllur things together has become a nutionul characteristic Our avocations are often as wearing aa our voeutions; we play even harder than we work. Thus to crowd two or more lives Into one Is to borrow of nature. She is a hurd creditor and she always exacts payment. One cannot, of course, Indlct-a whole, people.

The war has done what all wars do. And the leeches on society ore always active at such times. Just now we are facing all sorts of loose living and the public at large apparently feels Uttle concern. Any man or woman can at least help by setting a good example. * • • " • ^ be interesting—and startling—to kuow how many men and women put themselves In an early grave by going the pace that kills.

The man who does not at least propose to himself to be better this year than he was last, must he either very good or very bad Indeed. And only to propose to be better 1« something; If nothing else, It Is an acknowledgment of our need to be so, which is the first step towards amendment Bat, In fact> to propose to onepelf to do well la in some sort to do well, positively; for there is no such thing as a stationary point In human endeavors; he who Is not worse today than he was yesterday.

Waa it not sport in a land flowing with strikes and profiteers; sport such as his soul loved? "I am afraid.

And he was just putting down the paper, to again concentrate on his problem, when a paragraph caught bis eye. "STRANGE MURDER IN BELFAST "The man whose body waa discovered in such peculiar circumstances near the docks has been identified as 1 Mr. James Granger, the confidential secretary to Mr. Hiram Potta, the American multi-millionaire, at present in this country.

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

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

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

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

But now all bt that ha* been, artistically overcome in both dh-ecjlpns. The coats and wraps tha,t .happy medium of design which Is so desirable and so filled with charm*. There is no reason why the coat nowadays should not be just as becoming as the frock. Sometimes it is even more so; But it is an Inspiring experience for any woman to be able to wear a beautiful gown covered by a beautiful wrap, knowing in her heart that when she sees fit to remove the outer garment she has In store for all onlookers a complete change of scene. The ceats are warm, too, by reason 'Of their featherweight and woolen interlining*. There Is nothing obvious about woolens in these modern days— nothing too plain and unbeautiful. They are all concealed under soft chiffons and silks and velvets and duvetynes. But they are on hand none the less to defy any cold breezes and to make the whiter weather pleasant no matter what the social occasion. Time was, you know, when If one cared to be interesting looking In winter then one made up one's mind to freeze gently but willingly. There was no chance for gracefulness combined with warmth. But now all that has changed, and the more delicate a wrap looks the more one may be sure that it has tucked away in its innards some fairy paddings that guarantee it for winter.

The fur about the neck and sleeves is gray, the embroidery which is concentrated on the sleeves is also done in gray, and the lining, to repeat the general color scheme, Is a soft gray crepe. This desire for black and gray has become a general one during this present winter season. In all sorts and conditions of wraps and ways the union of the two colors is demonstrated.

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

' J ' :" WHAT EVERY WOMAN WANTS TO KNOW Underweight and Overweight Children had considerable highway construction experience.—Tribune. Both underweight and overweight children offer special nutritional problems. Both arc abnormal, being subject to disease* and to general retarded mental devlopment. Mothers should study their children, decide upon individual condition, and then plan meals to conform to proper corrective diet. The Christmas season with its accompaniment of holiday candies and highly seasoned foods; the New Year with its suggestion of-new regimes and good resolutions-—both, as our French neighbors say, "give one to think." The result of over indulgence In sweets and rich food is seldom so ipparent as at this time of the year when For Cold*, Conga*, r » , 3 v , HOWKLI.—AS Mr. and Mr.;. Robt.

Christmas with Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Garland, when about two miles south of Brighton on the Whitmore Lake ro.-id their car became nnmanageablr and went for the ditch. When the car tipped over or partly over, the flames were HJI over it in a minute. Mr. J :id Mrs. Brown left the car as quick as possible but were not able to pjt their grips in the back scat. AW they could do was to step back and watch it. The Essex sedan was completely destroyed, the most valuable thing left being the headlights as Mr. Brown thought. Unfortunately the car was not insured. Mr. and Mrs. Brown started to walk into Brighton but a passing cor picked them np. Mrs. Brown's mother, Mrs. A. D.

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

The French, acting under renewed instructions from their government, told the conference naval committee with an air of finality that France must remain free to build a submarine flotilla nearly three times as great as that she now possesses and to construct, in addition, cruisers, destroyers and other auxiliary craft up to a tonnage of 330,000. To the proposal, the Americans, Japanese and Italians replied with expressions of surprise and regret, while the British charged openly that such a building .program must be regarded as a menace to British shores. Arthur J. Balfour added that he had no doubt, if occasion arose, Great Britain would be equal to it, but .only if she reserved complete freedom of action as to the construction of all types of auxiliaries which might be useful against under-water warfare. Agreeing that further argument would be useless, the committee turned its attention to collateral subjects, Including regulations for future use of submarines, proposals for limitation of the size and armament of individual. auxiliary vessels, and details of the agreement already sealed in principle regarding capital ships. For the American delegation, Elihu Root proposed a joint declaration reaffirming the obligation of submarine commanders to warn merchant ships before attack, to refrain from sinking vessels whose crews and passengers could not first be placed in Safet y * * 1 HAROLD F.

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

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

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

Tell me," he went on, and she felt his arm round her again forcing her to look at him —"tell me, don't you care . . . a little?" "What's the use?" She still struggled, but, even to her, it wasn't very convincing. "We've got other tilings to do. . . . We can't think of. . . ." And then this very determined young man settled matters in h i s usual straightforward fashion. She felt herself lifted bodily out of the car as If she had been a child: she found herself lying In his arms, with Hugh's eyes looking very tenderly Into her own, and a whimsical grin around his mouth. "Cars pass here," he remarked, "with preat regularity. I know you'd hate to be discovered in this position." "Would I?" she whispered. "I wonder . . .'* She felt his heart pound madly against her; and with a sudden quick movement she put forth her arms round his neck and kissed him on the mouth. "Is that good enough?" she asked, very low: and Just for a few moments. time stood still. . . . Then, very gently, he put her hack in the car. "I suppose," he remarked resignedly, "that we had better descend to trivialities. We've had lots of fun and games since I last saw you a year or t w o ago." "Idiot boy," she said happily. "It was yesterday morniftg." "The interruption is considered trivial. Mere facts don't count when It's you and me." There w a s a further interlude of uncertain duration, followed rapidly by another because the first was so nice. "To resume," continued Hugh, "I regret to state that they've got Potts. The girl sat up quickly and stared at him. "Got him? Oh, Hugh! how did they manage it?" 'Tm d—d If I know," he answered grimly. "They found out that he w a s in my bungalow at Goring during the afternoon by sending round a man to see about the water. Somehow or other he must have doped the drink or the food, because after dinner w e all fell asleep. I don't remember anything more till I woke this morning with the roost appalling head. Of course; Potts had gone." "I heard the car drive up In the middle of the night," m i d th« girl be put her Into * carriage. And t w o minutes later, with the touch of her lips warm on his, and her anxious little cry, "Take care, my darling!— take care!" still ringing in his ears, he got into his car and drove off to an hotel to get an early dinner. FOUR. At a quarter to ten he backed his car into the shadow of some trees not far from the gate of The Elms. Save for a light In the sitting-room and one In a bedroom upstairs, the front of the house was In darkness, and, treading noiselessly on the turf, he explored all round it. There was one bedroom light at the back of the house, and thrown on the blind he could see the shadow of a man. As he watched, the man got up and moved away, only to return In a moment or two and take up his old position. "It's one of those two bedrooms," he muttered to himself, "If he's here at all." Then he crouched In the shadow of some shrubs and waited. Through the trees to his right he could see The Larches, and once, with a sudden quickening of his heart, he thought he saw the outline of the girl show up In the light from the drawing-room. But it was only for a second, and then it was gone. . . . He peered at his watch: it was Just tpn o'clock. The trees were creaking gently in the faint wind; all around him the strange night noises—riolses "which play pranks with a man's nerves—were whispering and muttering. Bushes seemed suddenly to come to life, and move; eerie shapes crawled over the ground toward j him—figures which existed only in his imagination. And once again the thrill of the night stalker gripped him. He remembered the German who had lain motionless for an hour in a little gully by Hebuterne, while he from behind a stunted bush had tried to locate him. And then that one creak as the Boche had moved his leg. And then . . . the end. On that night, too, the little hummocks had moved and taken to themselves strange shapes: fifty times he had imagined he saw h i m ; fifty times he knew he w a s wrong—in time, He was used to It; the night held no terrors for him. only a fierce excitement. And thus It was that as he crouched In the bushes, waiting for the game to start his pulse was as normal, and his nerves as steady a s If he had been sitting down to supper. The only difference was that in his hand he held something tight-gripped. At Inst faintly In the distance he heard the hum of s car. Rapidly it grew louder, and he smiled grimly to himself as' the sound of five On melodious voices singing lustily struck his ear. They passed along the road In front of the house. There was a sudden crash—then silence; but only for a moment. Peter'i voice came first: T o n priceless old ass, you've rammed the blinking gate." It w a s Jerry Seymour w h o then took i p the b a w l Hig vaiee waa inpicked him up, and, paying no more attention to the man gasping and choking in a corner, he raced for the back stairs. Below he could hear Jerry hiccoughing gently, and explslnlng to the pro . . , pro . . . prltor that he pershonally would repair . . toshlsted on repairing any and every gate posht he posshessed. . . . And then he reached the garden. . . . Everything had fallen out exactly as he had hoped, but had hardly dared to expect. He heard Peterson's voice, calm and suave as usual, answering Jerry. From the garden in front came the dreadful sound of a duet by Algy and Peter. Not a soul was In sight; the back of the house was clear. All that he had to do was to walk quicly through the wicket-gare to The Larches with his semi-conscious burden, get to his car, and drive off. It ail seemed so easy that he laughed. . . . But there were one or two factors that he had forgotten, nnd the first and most Important one was the man upstairs. The window was thrown up tertainments I've seen for a long time." The culm, expressionless voice mad* him look up wearily, and he saw tha< he was surrounded by men. The inevitable clp;ar glowed red in the darkness, and after a moment or two he scrambled unsteadily to his f**rt. "I'd forgotten your 4—d menagerie I must frankly confess," he remarked "What's the party for?" He glanced at the men who had closed in round him. "A guard of honor, my youn| friend," said Peterson suavely, "to leoo you to the house. I wouldn't he*iltatl . , . It's very foolish, Your fnendi have gone, and, strong as you are, 1 don't think you can manages ten." Hugh commenced to stroll toward the house. "Well, don't leave the wretched Potts lying about. I dropped him ovw there." "The Soldier!" He Snarled. Young Pupl" •You suddenly, and the man leaned out waving his arms. He was still gasping with the strength of the ammonia, but Hugh saw him clearly in the light from the room behind. And as be cursed himself for a fool in not having Med him up, from the trees close by there came the sharp clang of metal. With a quick catch In his breath he began to run. The two men who had rushed past him before he had entered the house, and whom, save for a passing thought, he h a d disregarded, had become the principal danger. For he had heard that clang before; he remembered Jem Smith's white horrorstruck fat*, aad tilts hi* sigh of ra- CHAPTER V I I . In Which He Spends an Hour sr f > * on a Roof. ONE. Dnimmnfirl paused for a momes* a< the door of the sitting room, then wits a slight shrug he stepped past Peterson. During the Inst few days ha had grown to look on this particular i"OorJl as the private den of the principals of the gang. He associated It In hh» mild with Peterson himself, suave. Impassive, ruthless; with the girl Irma, per fectly gowned, lying on the sofa, smoking Innumerable cigarettes, nnd mattlcuring her already faultless nails; sod In a les'ser decree, with Henry I/akington's thin, cruel face, nnd blue staring eyes. P.ut tonight n different scene cfMlfronted him. The girl was not there j her accustomed place on the sofa wat occupied by an nnkempf-looking man with a rngped beard. At the end of the fable was a vacant chair, on the right of which *at Ijiklngtoo ivgard- Inp him with malevolent fury.

In Liverpool (Kng.) there still exists one of the very few remaining medieval borough courts of record. At one time there were 215 In various parts of t h e kingdom. The Liverpool court of passage, as It Is called, has practically unlimited jurisdiction In causes of action arising within the city, and has more power than has the City of London court which has jurisdiction only when the defendant is employed In the city itself. Jewish Physicians to Popes. Many examples might be enumerated of popes who patronized Jewish physicians.

A "balanced diet" may sound confusing to many people The facts, as explained here, are simple. The secret of a "balanced diet" is to have food containing all the elements needed for proper nutrition. These elements are protein, to nourish the tissues; starch and sugar to furnish energy; fat to supply heat; and mineral salts to provide the material necessary for building nerves, brain, and tooth and bone structure. Grape-Nuts, the nourishing cereal made of whole wheat flour and malted barley, served with cream or milk, is a complete food for young and old alike. Go to your grocer today and get a package of Grape-Nuts. Eat it with milk or cream for breakfast; or with stewed fruit, jelly or jam, as a daHciom dessert for lunch or dinner. Every member of the family will relish this pfU+aKU and nourishing food— Grape-Nuts—the Body Builder "There's a Reason" Made by Pomum Canal Co, !&&, BattU CUMK, Mfcfc. • good Ls to be accomplished to Induce thera to support the treaties necessary for establishing, on a legal or semilegal basis, the a g r e e m e n t s of the conference. No International conference thus far has been held In which there have been so few signs of friction. It is perfectly true that there have been troubles and that this country h a s demanded this thing, and that country has demanded that thing, and as a result clouds have come In the conference, but the clouds thus far quickly have been dispelled, and serenity has come once more upon the scene. Probably never before in t h e history of the world was an international conference held, t h e main purposes of which were given so enthusiastic a support by the press of the nation. Here and there have been discordant editorial notes, but in the main, rej gardless of political views and polltl- ! cal affiliations, t h e majority ed+torlal expression h a s been favorable to the completion of t h e plans of the conference as they wetv outlined in the call for its coming together. Needless Alarm Over French Demand. When word came that t h e French were to demand the right under t h e conference agreement to build ten 35.- 000-ton battleships between t h e years of 1925-1935, there w a s instant feeling on the p a r t of a good many per- I sons here who a r e quick to j u m p to i conclusions, t h a t the end of everyj thing had corne a n d t h a t t h e conference must break up and go its way tt# great work undone. I There were other persons, compos- ] ing the great majority, who refused to take the French proposal seriously, and who s a i d : " J u s t wait a day or two and this thing, as other things have been, will be straightened out." " T h i s thing" w a s straightened out, and t h e n e w s p a p e r men who refused to be stampeded Into t h e field of fear were glad that they kept tiie check rein on their desire to run at the first t h r e a t of disaster. For a long time it w a s urged by the pessimists that J a p a n would not ac- , cept the naval ratio proposed by the United States government. Some men went so far a s to say that J a p a n m&& notoriously obstinate in all its oRilings, and that nothing could induce 1 It to change Us position. Again the pessimists were disappointed. There w e r e some few changes made, not in t h e navy ratio-itself hut In the allotroents of ships under the ratio, nnd this w a s all t h a t happened, and men ; who s a w black, s a w white again. Buncu-Varilla Talks of Canal. Battleships of 35,000 tons of .ype : which t h e F r e n c h expressed a deslra j to build can pass through t h e locks of t h e P a n a m a canal. It h a s been claimed from t h e beginning of the conference that t h e United States i seemingly h a s desired to keep w a r s h i p | dimensions well within the capacity of t h e can a! locks. If men-of-war with a greater length, or with greatpr l«eaxn t h a n those of t h e locks of the canal, shall be constructed t h e w a t w w a y In a sense will become obsolete.

Following the emplacement of the glass windows there was a marked decrease in the cases of yellow fever. T h e colonel says that until certain discoveries were made lu connection with the transmission of the disease by mosquitoes lie believed thoroughly that the exclusion of the night air alone was responsible for the decrease in the fever cases. Now it is known that the res I reason that the yellow fever decreased after windows were put tn is that a yellow fever mosquito which is In condition to transmit the disease, never bites anybody in the day time. It Is the female of t h e species which transmits the disease. T h e male stegoinyla mosquito never bites. T h e female remains all day long in the dark shadows of the underbrush and comes forth at night to seek tts human prey, Winter Comes to Washington. Winter lias come down upon Washington with a vigor that was wanting one year ago. T h e cold and t h e holiday spirit together took hold of law makers, residents, international conferees, and the public generally. Washington assumes a new demeanor with the cloak of winter. Last July the mercury went considerably above t h e 100 mark In t h e weather kiosks on the streets and continued this climbing performance for a good many days. Washington panted and It continued to pant until , October came In. Cold ls a grateful change and much of a relief for people who a r e not habituated to the Capital City climate. December and J a n u a r y are t h e only winter months In this town, although occasionally February breaks loose with n blast or two. A n a t u r e calendar, faithfully kept for eighteen years with the exception of two years when absent in the army, shows t h e writer that thp soft maple buds always begin to show red and to swell a hit In Washington either at the end of the first week in February, or at the beginning of t h e second week. From that time on increased daily manifestation «5 of spring a r e evident everywhere. Last year March had not finisher] its course before t h e oriental magnolias were In full bloom, covering t h e brnnehes of t h ° bearing trees either with a sheet of w h h e . or a sheet of purple and white, according to the free species. This year everybody looks for something different, but It is a safe prediction that even though the frost shall strike deep and the snow shaU bank up, the soft maples win r u n t r u e to form and show their first reddening offerings early in February. Curiously enough, the red buds came earlier ten years ago, when the cold broke a record here, than they did In any earlier year or have In any year since. and hy is m e rime to do nothing.

MONROE & SON For Your Footwear HOWELL MICH. if.% if you can imagine a world in which the source of supply will be so plentiful that people will worry about not using enough of it, instead of worrying as we do now about using too much, you will have a picture of the world that is soon to be. We have long depended on the resources which nature long, ago stored up, the resources which can be exhausted. We are now entering an era when we shall create resources which shall be so constantly renewed that the only loss will be not to use them. # There will be such a plenteous supply of. heat, light and power, that it will be sin not to use all we want. This era is coming in now. And it is coming by way of Water. »—^Henry Ford. V if ir CHAPELS HOWELL MICH.

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

Cleveland, O.—Six men, all of Port Huron, Mich., aboard the Great Lakes Towing company's lighter. T. F. Newman, which foundered off Conneaut harbor Jan. 11, owe their lives to the fact that the craft lodged against the west breakwater before she rolled on her side and sank in 30 feet of water. The men, who saved their lives by jumping to the sea wall, are: Captain Wilbur Nagle, Steward Ernest Nagle, Thomas Hanna, James Hays*, Frank Frye and Ernest Davis, Sergt.

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

Last week one of their business men was sentenced to the House of Correction as a boozer, but the Republican, a l t e r its little brag, refrained from making any note of the fact.

Newberry, of Detroit, duly entitled to his seat in the United States senate from Michigan and dismissing charges of corruption filed on January 4, 1919 by Henry Ford, Democratic aspirant for the seat. The vote marked the end of the bitterest fought struggle ever staged for a Beat in either house of congress, and the adoption of the resolution, introduced by Senator Spencer, Republican, of Missouri, only was accomplished after sharp debate of hours. When the roll was finally called, it was found nine Republicans had deserted the ranks of their party and voted to unseat Mr. Newberry, while a solid Democratic vote was cast against the resolution. Senator Johnson, Republican, California, was the only member of that party who did not record his choice In the matter. Senator Watson, Democrat, Georgia, who had previously announced he would desert his party and vote for the Michigan man, was not in the chamber and did not cast any vote. The contest runs back to 1918 when former President Wilson asked Henry Ford to run for the senatorship from Michigan. Mr. Ford consented but declined to make known his political affiliations and the primary contest started with Mr. Ford's name on both Republican and Democratic ballots, being opposed on the Republican by Newberry and several others. On the Democrat ballots he was opposed by James W. Helme of Adrian, Mich.

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

Once again he smiled genially. "As 1 said before, In a house like this, you can never telL, . . ." The intimidated rabbit, breathing heavily, was staring at Hugh fascinated; and after a moment Hugh turned to him with a courteous bow. "Laddie," he remarked, "you've been eating onions. Do you mind deflecting, the blast in the opposite direction?" His calm imperturbability seemed to maddun Lakington, "You wait," he snarled thickly; "you wait tiil I've finished with you. You won't be so d—d humorous then. . . ." Hugh regarded the speaker languidly. "Your supposition is more than probable," he remarked. In a bored voice. "I shall be too Intent on getting Into a Turkish bath to remove the contamination to think of laughing." Slowly Lakington sank bark in his chair, a hard, merciless smile on his lips; and for a moment or two there was silence in the room. It was broken by the unkempt man on the sofa, who, without warning, exploded unexpectedly- "A truce to all this fooling," be burst forth In a deep rumble; "I confess I do not understand it. Are we assembled here tonight, comrades, to listen to private Quarrels and stupid talk?" A murmur of approval came from the others, and the speaker stood up waving his arms. **I know not what this young man has done: I care less. In Russia such t r i f l e s m f l t f e r n o t W*» >>HH f h o o n r t o o r . die. Did we not kill thousands—aye, tens of thousands of his kidney, before \v«» ohtaJn.M the great freedom? Are is even now beginning to gloat in pleasant anticipation." Not a muscle on the soldier's face twitched; not by the hint of a look did he show the keenly watching audience that he realized his danger. Lakington's face was merciless, with its fiendish look of anticipation, and Hugh stared at him with level eyes for a while before he turned toward the door. "Then I will say 'Good night,'" he remarked casually. "Is It the same room that I had last time?" "No." said Peterson. -A different one—specially prepared for you. If you get to the top of the stairs a man j grimly. r- '*The scum certainly would not be complete," he remarked to Peterson, -without a filthy Boche in It." The German pushed back his chair with an oath, his face purple with paaslon. "A filthy Boche," he muttered thickly, lurching toward Hugh. "Hold him the arms of, and I will the throat tear out. . . ." It all happened so quickly. At one moment Hugh was apparently intent npon selecting a cigarette, the next Instant the case had fallen to the fioor; there was a dull, heavy thud, and the Boche crashed back, overturned a chair, and fell like a log to the floor, his head hitting the wall with a vicious crack. The bloodshot being resumed his seat a little limply. Hugh resumed his search for a cigarette. "After which breezy Interlude," remarked Peterson, "let us to business g e t " Hugh paused In the act of striking • » • * " * *T* H3 b • K i l l Him Now—Throw Him In a Cor* ner and Lat Us Proceed." a match, and for the first time a genalna smile apieed over his face. "There are moments, Peterson," he •turmured, **when you really appeal t o me." Petef>on took the empty chair next to Lakington. "Sit down," he aald shortly. "I can anly hope that I shall appeal to you •till more before we kill you." Hugh bowed and sat down. "Consideration,'* he murmured, "was always your strong point. May I ask bow long I have to live?" Peterson smiled genially. "At the earnest request of Mr. Lakmgton you are to be spared until tomorrow. At least, that is our present tetaotioa. Of cetrae, tbare might be throw him in a corner and let us proceed." He sat down, amidst a murmur of approval, in which Hugh joined heartily. "Splendid," he murmured. "A magnificent peroration. Am I right, sir, In assuming that you are what is vulgarly known as a Bolshevist?" The man turned his sunken eyes, glowing with the burning fires of fanaticism, on Drummond. "I am one of those who are fighting for the freedom of the world," he cried harshly, "for the right to live of the proletariat." He flung out his arms wildly. "It Is freedom ; It Is the dawn of the new age." Hugh looked at him with genuine curiosity; It was the first time he had actually met one of these wild visionaries in the flesh. And then the curiosity was succeeded by a very definite amazement: what had Peterson to do with such as he? For the moment his own deadly risk was forgotten: a growing excitement filled his mind. Could It be possible that here, at last, was the real object of the gang; could it be possible that Peterson was organizing a deliberate plot to try and Bolshevize England? He looked up to find Peterson regarding him with a fatnt smile. "It is a little difficult to understand, isn't It, Captain Drummond?" he said, carefully flicking the ash off his cigar "I told you you'd find yourself in deep water." Then he resumed the contemplation of the papers In front of him. Hugh half closed his eyes, while a general buzz of conversation broke out round the table. Fragments of conversation struck his ears from time to time. The intimidated rabbit, with the light of battle in his watery eye, was declaiming on the glories of workmen's councils; a bullet-headed man was shouting an inspiring battle cry about no starvation wages arfd work for all. "Can it be possible," thought Hugh, grimly, "that auch aa these have the power to control big destinies?" And then, because be had some experience of what one unbalanced brain, whose owner could talk, was capable of achieving; because he knew something about mob psychology, his half contemptuous amusement changed to a bitter foreboding. • "You fool \" he cried suddenly to the Russian ; and everyone ceased talking. "You poor d—d boob ! You—and your new earth! In Petfograd today bread 1« two pounds four shillings a pound ; tea, fifteen pounds a pound. Do you call that freedom?" He gave a contemptuous laugh. Too aurprlsed to speak, the Russian sat staring at him; and It was Peterson who broke the alienee with hla suave voice. "Your distress, I am glad to say, la not likely to be one of long duration," he remarked. "In fact, the time has come for you to retire for the night, my young friend." He stood up smiling; then he walked over to the bell behind Hugh and rang it. "Dead or mad—I wonder which." He threw the end of his cigar into the grate as Hugh rose. "While we deliberate down here on various mat> beeide him, and wlt» -a" series of ominous tbuda a body relied down t h e stairs into the hall below. "You fool." He beard Lakington's voice, shrill with anger. "You've killed him. Switch on the light . . ." But before the order could be carried out Hugh bad disappeared, like a great cat, Into the darkness of the passage above. As luck would have it the first room he darted into was empty, and he flung up the window and peered o u t A faint, watery moon snowed him a twenty-foot drop onto the grass, and without hesitation he flung his legs over the sill. And at that moment something prompted him to look upward. It was a dormer window, and to an active man access to the roof was easy. Without an instants hesitation he abandoned all thoughts of retreat; and when two excited men rushed into the room he was firmly ensconced, with his legs astride of the ridge of the window, not a yard from their heads. Securely hidden in the shadow, he watched the subsequent proceedings with genial toleration. A raucous bellow from the two men announced that they had discovered his line of escape; and. In half a minute the garden was full of hurrying figures. One, calm and impassive, his identity betrayed only by the inevitable cigar, stood by the garden door, apparently taking no p a n in the game; Lakington, blind with fury, was running round in small circles, cursing every- \ «*»e Impartially. •The car is still there." A man came u p i o Peterson, and Hugh heard the wortrs distinctly. "Then he's probably over at Ben ton's house. I will go and see." Hugh watched the thick-set, massive figure stroll down toward the wicket gate, and he laughed gently to himself. Then he grew serious again, and with a slight frown he pulled out his watch and peered at It. "Half-past one . . . two more hours before dawn. And In those two hours he wanted to explore the house from on top; especially he wanted to have a look at the mysterious central room of which Phyllis had spoken to him— the room where Lakington kept his treasures. Hut until the excited throng below went Indoors, it was unsafe to move. Once out of the . +-» U i H U t l see hltu crawling over the roof In the moonlight. At times the thought of the helpless man for whose detith he had in *SE&SSK He Opened the Door and Stood There 8m I ling. will show you where it Is." He opened the door and stood there smiling. And at that moment all the lights went out TWO. The darkness could he felt, as real darkness inside a house always can be felt. Not the faintest glimmer even of greyncss showed anywhere, and Hugh remained motionless, wondering what the next move was going to be. Now that the night's ordeal had commenced, all his nerve had returned to him. He felt Ice-cold ; and as his powerful hands clenched and unclenched by his sides, he grinned faintly to himself. Then very cautiously he commenced to feel his way toward the door. At that moment someone brushed past him. Like a flash Hugh's hand shot out and gripped him by the arm. The man wriggled and twisted, but he was powerless as a child, and with another short laugh Hugh found his throat with his other hand. And again silence settled on the room . . . Still holding the unknown man In front of him, he reached the foot of the stairs* and there he paused. He had suddenly remembered the mysterious thing which had whizzed past his head that other night, and then clanged suddenly into the wall beside him. He had gone up five stairs when it had happened, and now with his foot on the first, he started to do some rapid thinking. If, as Peterson had kindly assnred him, they proposed to try and send him mad, It was unlikely that they would kill him on the stairs. At the same* time It was ohviously. an Implement capable of accurate adjustment, and therefore It was more than likely that they would use it to frighten him. And if they did—If they did . . . The unknown man wriggled feebly In his hands, and a sudden unholy look came on to Hugh's face. "It's the only possible chance," he said to himself, "and If it's you or me, laddie, I guess It's got to be you." With a quick heave he jerked the man off his feet, and lifted him up till his head was above the level of his own. Then clutching him tight. he commenced to climb. His own head was bent down, somewhere In the region of the man's back, and he took no notice of the feebly kicking legs. Then at last he reached the fourth step, and gave a final adjustment to his aeml-consclous burden. He pressed his head even lower In the man's back, and lifted him up another three inches. "How awfully jolly!" he murmured. "I hope the result will please yon." "Td stand quite still if I were you," aald Peterson suavely. "Just listen." Aa Hugh had gambled on, the performance was designed to frighten. Instead of that, something hit the neck of the man he was holding with aoch force that U wrenched him clean It had been necessary, he realized: you can curry someone upstairs in a normal house without him having his neck broken—but still . . . And then he wondered who he was. It had been one of the men who sat round the table—of that he was tolerably certain. But which . . . ? Was it the frightened bunny, or the Russian, or the gentleman with the hloodshot eye? The only comfort was that whoever It had been, the world would not he appreciably the poorer for his sudden decease, The only regret was that it hadn't been dear Henry. . . . He had a dlstate for Henry which far exceeded his dislike of Peterson. "He's not over there." Peterson's voice came to him from below, "And we've wasted time enough as It Is." The men had gathered together In a group. Just below where Hugti was sitting, evidently awaiting further orders. "Do yon mean to say we've lost the young swine again?" said Lakington angrily. "Not lost—merely mislaid." murmured Peterson. "The more I see of him the more do I admire his Initiative." Lakington snorted. "It was that d—d fool Ivolsky's own fault," he snarled; "why didn't he keep still as he was told to do?" "Why, Indeed," returned Peterson. his cigar glowing red. "And I'm afraid we shall never know. He Is very dead." He turned toward the house. "That concludes the entertainment, gentlemen, for tonight. I think you can all go to bed." He disappeared into the house, and the others followed slowly. For the time being Hugh was safe, and with a sigh of relief he stretched his cramped limbs and lay hack against the sloping roof. Tf only he had dared to llgfit a cigarette. THREE. It was half an hour before Drummond decided that it was safe to Rtart exploring. First he took off his shoes, and tying the laces together, he slung them around his neck. Then, as silently as he could, he commenced to scramble upward. It was not an easy operation; one slip and nothing could have stopped hlra sliding down and finally crashing Into the garden below, with a broken leg, at the very least, for his pains. In addition, there was the risk of dislodging a slate, an unwise proceeding In a house where most of the occupants slept with one eye open. But at last he got his hands over the ridge of the roof, and in another moment he was sitting straddlewlse across it. A sudden rattle cloie to him made him start violently; only to curse himself for a nervous ass the next moment, and lean forward esgerly. One of the blinds had been released from Inside the room, and a pale, diffused light came Altering out Into the night from the side of the glass roof. He waa still craning backward and forward to try and find some chink through which he could see, when, with a kind of uncanny deliberation, one of the panes of glass slowly opened. It waa worked oa> a ratchet thanks to the unseen operator below. Then he.leant forward cautiously, and peered in. . . . The whole room was visible to him, and his jaw tightened as be took In the scene. In an arcjcuair. smoking as unconcernedly as ever, sat Peterson. He was reading a letter, and occasionally underlining some point with a pencil. Beside him ou a table was a big ledger, and every now and then he would turn over a few pages and make an entry. But it was not Peterson on whom the watcher ubove was concentrating his attention; it was Lakington, taking a red velvet box out of a drawer in the desk. He opened it lovingly, and Hugh saw the flash of diamonds. Lakington let the stones run through his hands, glittering with a thousand flames, while Pe terson watched him contemptuously. "Baubles," he said, scornfully "Pretty baubles. What will you grt for them?" "Ten, perhaps fifteen thousand," returned the other. "But It's not the money I care about; it's the delight In having them, and the skill required to get them." Peterson shrugged his shoulders. HSkl!l which would give you hundreds of thousands if you turned it into proper channels." Lakington replaced the stones, and threw the end of his cigarette Into the grate. "Possibly, Carl, quite possibly. But it bolls down to this, my friend, uiat you like the big canvas with broad effects; I like the miniature and the well-drawn etching." "Which makes u.s a ve^y happy combination," s«id Peterson "The pearls, don't forget, are your job. The big thing"—he turned to the other, and a trace of excitement came into his voice—"the big thing Is mine." The sound of the door opening made both men swing round instantly' then Peterson stepped forward wltn • smile as !rm* entered. "Back, my deur. I hardly expected you so soon." In a few words he told the girl what had happened, ami she clapped her hands together delightedly. "Assuredly I shall have to marry that man." she cried. "He Is quite the leii8t boring Individual I have met in this atrocious country." She sat down and lit a cigurette. "I saw Walter tonight. He came over especially • • .-.. J .

LAND OF WEAI Potentialities of Western Canada Abundantly Proved. >$ Prizes Taken at International Live Stock Exposition Show What Land Is Capable of Producing. Forty years ago the first sale waf made of lands acquired by the Canadian Pacific rallwuy. This is but a short Npnn in the lives of many, and there ure those who look back upon that period as it being but of yesterday. Yet when one glances back it is to marvel ut the accomplishments of that period. One of the most striking of these is the progress that has been mude in Western Canada since that day, forty years ago, when an official of the railway placed his signature to the document that gave possession to the new owner of a section of land. This was the first sign of the wealth that in time would be added to the wealth of the world In forty years, this single section of land being the base upon which the future would be built. The potentiul wealth was but in embryo; today It Is a big, living reality. Among the many things that reveal this, may be seen the winnings made by Western Canada exhibitors at the International Live Stock show held in Chicago in 1921. These were so marked In their number as to give to the world—the American world—a splendid idea of the excellence of the products of the farms of the new but rapidly developing country lying to the north of the International boundary line. The results of the exhibition show, according to the Manitoba Free Press, that in live stock and grain exhibits the three prairie provinces of Canada made something like 150 winnings. Every animal sent from the province of Albcrtu won n prize. Exhibits included Shorthorn and Hereford cattle and Percheron and Clydesdale horses. An Alherta-hred heifer got fourth place In n class of eighteen outstanding Individuals. In grain, Alberta made simply an astounding record, securing the sweepstake* for oats, and eight or nine prizes before even the American exhibitors secured a placing, and while H.<I f»-;i ri*i rrm m nlonsh i i» for wheat vl • took '','? out of 'J." possible pladngs. The first prize for alfalfa seed was awarded for seed grown at Brooks, swered. "My dear man. you can easily slip over for a day." "Of course 1 can," said Petersoa Irritably; "but that doesn't alter the fact that It's inconvenient. Thing* will be shortly coming to a head here, and I want to be on the spot. How* ever—" He started to walk up ant down the room, frowning thoughtfully "Your fish Is hooked, mon ami," continued the girl to Lakington. ,4Hs has already proposed three times; and he has Introduced me to a dread* ful-looking woman of extreme virtue, who has adopted me as her niece fot the great occasion." "What greut occasion?" asked Lae- Ington. "Why, his coming of age," cried lh$ girl. "I am to go to Laldley Towers" as an honored guest of the ducheet of Lampshire." She threw back he* head and laughed. "What uo yoa 1 -3753-¾¾ ] bounds, and this victory will give It i and the dairy industry, which Is always linked with it. a further Impetus. In live stock classes alone Saskatchewan had sixty entries und took sixtyfour ribbons. The winning of the grand championship for Clydesdale stallions by a Saskatchewan horse, for the second lime in succession, was almost exceptional. He was bred on a Western Canada farm, fitted and prepared for exhibition there, and able to win over horses shown from the studs of men who have unlimited money to spend on the breeding and preparation of their exhibits. This Is proof positive that the farmers of Western Canada are not only In a position to breed their own horse power, and that of a very high quality, but to breed horses that will be saleable In any market of the world. Manitoba rakes just pride In the fact that a Percheron stallion, first in his class and Canadian-bred champion. was bred by Vance, of Crandall, Manitoba. Manitoba took 04 places outside of the grain exhibits. When nil Is said and done, the real triumphs are the wins of both live stock j and grains actually produced In the great Canadian yirovlnces. Commenting upon the enterprise of agriculturists of Western Canada In sending exhibits to the International Live Stock exposition at Chicago, the New York Herald in n recent Issue said: "Western Canada Is encouraging diversified farming in a way certain to bring an increased flow of dollars into the pockets of agriculturists, who at one time devoted their energies exclusively to the raising of grain crops."* —Advertisement. >>;v /^-/6- "Because Dear Freddie Has Told Mi So," Answered the Girl. think of that, my friend?

"Because dear Freddie has told so," answered the girl. She blew smoke rings and then laughed. "Freddie Is really rather a dear at times.

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

Two head of young1 cattle burned with it, along with all the hay, grain and tools. The cause was the explosion of a gasoline engine which wits said to have been on the barn fio. r. The Brighton fire department answered the call but when it arrived the building was so far gone that nothing could save it, only the chemical engine being pumped. The fire spread so quickly that it was impossible to get all the stock out. Two horses had to be lead out with blankets over their heads. A Ford car belonging to Clyde McDonnell, who is helping on the place was consumed. Nearly all of the tools on the place were burned. The tile silo stood unharmed' in the midst of the flames. There were two large wings to the barn, one the main part for h;iy and WHEN WE BUY Gasoline and Lubricating We are obliged to PAY SPOT CASH Thi» !• an absolute trade rule.

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

By this time all hope had been abandoned and the most optimistic of the Vatican entourage had come to realize ; t h a t the end was a m a t t e r of h o u r s If I not minutes. | When the pope lost consciousness late Friday afternoon the a t t e n d i n g J physicians did not hesitate In express- f ing the:r fears that death was at hand, j T h e pope had been sinking all day, ' due to inflammation of the lungs and I weak heart action, but had retained consciousness.

Cardinal Merry Dei Val, who, as Pope Benedict XV rose to the supreme head of the Catholic church Sept. 6, 1014. less than six months after he was elevated to the cardinal ship. He was born of noble parent* at Poglt, near Genoa, Italy, Nov. 21. 1854. His father was Marquis Delia Chlesa. Educated at Cnpronlcnn college and the Academy of Ecclesiastics, he was ordulned to the priesthood In 1878.

In 19()1 he was appointed consultor of the holy office and In 1907 Pope Plus gave him the appointment of archbishop of the see of Bologna, He was made a cardinal in May, 1914. Pope Benedict was much affected by the horrors and sorrow of the World war and many times tried to bring about pence negotiations. Germany's violation of Belgium's neutrality filled him with great sorrow nnd after the sinking of the Lusltania. he telegraphed the German emperor telling his abhorrence of the deed. Pope Benedict's first appeal for pence was Issued one week nfter his coronation. The appeal failed to bring results, as did also his Inter plan for a C h r i s t m a s truce, In J a n u a r y and ir> July. 191.r>, he again tried to bring about peace negotiations. In March, 1916. he repeated his a t t e m p t s and in May of the s a m e year suggested that America should net as conciliator between the warring nations. His note to President Wilson to this effect reached Washington when Germany nnd the United States were involved In a diplomatic crisis. T h e Vatican approved of President Wilson's peace note In 1917, but three months later t h e United States entered the war. T h e Pope's most memorable appeal for peace was Issued in his own handwriting on August 8, 1917. and asked belligerent rolers to end the struggle. D u r i n g the peace conference his picas were Issued In behalf of w e a k e r nations. J u s t before the conference President Wilson had a private conference with Pope Benedict at the Vatican In which many questions of a social and international n a t u r e were discussed.

Tlie invest l o t i o n , which «»« carried on for three yenr«. showe«l that the feed cost of keeping a cow was flf) per cent of the entire cost of maintenance for (i year, while '.\\ per cent represented interest, labor, equipment nnd Incidentals. The total number of cows on tlie !KK5 farms WAS 'JX "J;"H. nn nveniL'e of 'J.' to the farm. The per cent of c a l \ e s rais«'<l was prncticallv Sa. It was found thnt costs could be reduced through three factors—Inorejisliip the credits from the cows. Improving tlie herd, nnd economy In feeding. Early Fall Buying of Feeders Best. When feeders a r e not raised on the farm buying and selling ability plays an important part. In some seasons certain weights and classes of cuttle may be purchased more economically tliMii others, ordinarily early fall buying is preferable, as competition between puckers and feeders usually increases as winter approaches. The higher the quality of tlie feeder steer the belter use he will make of his feed, though he usually eats more of It. P u t this consideration should not cause the buyer to lose sight of the price. Kleshy feeders can often he used to a d v a n t a g e on short feeds, and when there a r e very good prospects for higher prices. Tho older the animnl tlie quicker it wW fatten, a s ii will use less feed for growth and more for fat production. Mature feeders fatten in rlm-e to four months, two-year-olds in ."> to 7 months, yearlings in eight to ten months, nnd calves In ten to t w e h e months. Older cattle use roughages more advantageously, but in genera1 young animals m a k e more economical use of all feeds. Mature cattle require from nine to eleven pounds of digestible nutrients to make :i pound of gain, whereas yearlings use si* to eight pounds, ami calves only four to six pounds. Feeding r a t t l e for the m a r k e t 1« simply one method of marketing tincrops. On 2*7 farms In the corn belt an a v e r a g e of %'> per cent of the 101 fl crops was fed to cattle. Fully 00 ]»>r cent of the fattened cattle in this jiren a r e dry-lot fed and are marketed before July 1. T h e varions methods of feeding and the feeds used are fully discussed in the bulletin.

Large Saving Is Made in Replacement Where Short-Lived T i m b e r Is Used—Decay Is Less Rapid in N o r t h e r n States. (Pr*p»re<t by th* l'mt*<1 Ntm»# D e p a r t m e n t <if A|f r l i u l t u i * ) Although more expensive at the outset, creosoted posts are generally more economical to use than many kinds of untreated, short-lived woods, be cause of their much greater lasting qualities, the forest service of the United States Department of Agriculture has determined. The exceptions would be in remote localities with cheap wood and labor, and where it would he expensive to obtain creosote. The large saving in the replacement charges, which ordinarily mount up so high in maintaining a fence, and tlie use of cheap and inferior kinds of woods in the first place, much more than offset the increased cost of thorough treatment with creosote. Treated posts a r e a good investment, and ttieir use where lasting woods a r e scarce or expensive is a sign of sound judgment in farm management. The best treatment is that which results in the deepest penetration into the wood with the least absorption of creosote. The butts of the posls should be placed for one to two hours in creosote heated lo a temperature of, ISO degrees to "J'JO degrees F. ft is important to treat the wood to a height of a fiku above the proposed ground line. In the southern states the entire post should then be submerged into oil, at SO degrees to UN) degrees F.. for one or two hours, or for <ueh a time as is necesvary To get zood penetration. In the North, where decay is less rapid, the hot treatment is applied only to tlie butts, which are allowed to remain for two or three hours in the cooling process, tlie tops being treated by painting or dipping in creosote.

For the most favorable transformation of digested food into nerve and cell tissue, so doctors tell us, sleep is absolutely essential. Is it any wonder that those who suffer from lack of proper sleep are weak, pale and lacking in energy or ambition? One of the causes of irisomnia is nerve-irritation from tea and coffee drinking, Tea and coffee both contain caffeine, which has a tendency to cause undue stimulation. The irritating effect of caffeine often results in insomnia, depression, and a weakened nervous system. You can easily overcome these troubles by drinking Posrum instead of tea or coffee. Postum is a delicious, satisfying cereal beverage, and it is absolutely free from caffeine, or any other harmful substance. Ask your grocer for Postum. Drink this delicious, refreshing beverage for ten days. Then see if you do not feel better and more clear Vflded, «™j if you do not sleep better at night—aa so many other people have proved for themselves. Postum comes in two forms: Instant Postum (in tins) mads instantly in t h s cap b y tbs addition of boiHng watsr.

Johnson, superintendent of public instruction, to discuss the enforcement and effect of the new school legislation passed during the 1921 session of the legislature and to consider measures necessary to complete the new program. The two questions considered were greater centralization of the county school systems, so that the county superintendent would be able to bring the poorer schools up to a higher standard, and a changed manner of distributing the primary school fund. It was claimed by several superintendents that the selfishness of the local school officials In some districts is a great hindrance to consolidation of schools and improvement of rural school conditions. One superintendent described an instance ln which he said a school with oaJy five pupils was maintained, although the children could easily be sent to a nearby school. The commissioners passed a unanimous resolution favoring continuance of the distribution of athletic materials to the rural schools. Since It is not probable that the funds received by the state boxing commission will again furnish the money needed for this purpose, the legislative committee was instructed to prepare a bill to provide that the money be raised in some other way. The change proposed regarding distribution of primary school funds would benefit the poorer sections of the state. It is along the line of the method used in distributing state aid on trunk line highways. Those counties that have only small amounts, of property on the tax rolls but have con- WALLACE SEES FMM RUIN I I PRICE FIXING Items Of Interest in World's News HENRY C. WALLACE Washington—Opposition to price fixing on farm products was expressed by Secretary Wallace at a conference with newspaper men at the agricultural conference held here last week. At the same time the secretary declared he favored plans to restore the farmer's purchasing power and make his dollar worth as much as that of any other. Price fixing, he said, would not lead to stabilization, but would be ruinous to the very agricultural interests it was designed to benefit. The conference adopted a resolution calling upon Congress and President Harding to take immediate action to remedy the situation. WARDEN'S INJURIES PROVE FATAL T. B.

MANY DE WHEN THEATER CRASHES ROOF OF MOVIE HOUSE, L A D E N W I T H 8NOW COLLAPSES OVER CROWD. CAPITAL STUNNED BY CALAMITY Injured and Dead Rushed to Nearby Church Where 107 Bodlss Have Been Identified. Washington—Official police record* early Monday placed the known dead In the Knickerbocker theater disaster at 107, after elimination of duplicated names from the unofficial peak of llfc at which the toll ,of the catastrophe was placed late Sunday night. T h e list of injured stood at 134 with 14 listed as "seriously injured." The official llBt, according to the authorities, contained the names of all those whose bodies had been recovered up to midnight from the ruins left when the roof of the theater, overweighted with snow, collapsed on t h e audience which had braved the Saturday night storm to witness the comedy featured on the evening program. The volunteer workers, including police, firemen, marines and cavalry from Fort Myer, had practically concluded their search of the wreckage at midnight, the only portion o t w h a t had been the orchestra remaining to be searched being a far corner in which it was not expected additional bodies would be found. The exact number in the theater when the steel and concrete span of the roof buckled and fell under ita three foot load of snow probably never will be known. The stories of perhaps 100 who got out uninjured have been reported. These account for a few more than 300 in the audience that was roaring in laughter a t a filmed comedy when the roof fell on them like a blanket, carrying down the front of the wide balcony in i t s crash. Normally the theater haB had every seat filled at that hour and nearly 2,000- persons was its capacity. The same unprecedented snow fall which brought death to the venturesome few kept the many at home.

The answer is that the smaller communities, peopled by the right kind of folks, will provide themselves with all that is necessary to a wholesome, normal life. Every community should be self-sustaining and no city of the present day is. The city is absolutely dependent for everything: all it has is brought into it. The smaller community is in the midst of its supply and is better fitted to sustain itself, materially and socially. We need less waiting on and more self help.-Henry Ford in Dearborn Independent.

When all the buildings have been completed, room will be available to care for the ino or more children that are under the care of the church.

I at once began to get stronger. I have got many women to take it just by telling them what it has done for me. I have a young sister whom it h a s helped in the same way it helped me.

(I Monuhan. a representative in the S i x - ' ty-s'lxth congress, from Wisconsin: Wherein, then, did Lincoln's greatness lie? A brief review of t h e man and his work may aid in ansvu'Cinu this question. Lincoln was an intense student, not only In books but of men und conditions, and a* day by day he absorbed knowledge, which his great memory retained, be became in time 1 e very learned man. though never a scholarly one. lie w a s always true to his higher ' pelf and courageously stood for what he Ivolieved to he right. There was nothing of the trimmer or demagogue In his makeup. He was honest with bis fellow men, t r u e to his friends, a n d ingratitude had no part in his mental makeup, hence when he made friends he always kept them, arid because of his honesty the people trusted hirn. He acted upon judgment, not impulse, and the hysterica! and ultra never appealed to him. During t h e . Civil w a r often his most bitter as- • snllnnts were not the men in a r m s against t h e government, not even t h e " c o p p e r h e a d " element in t h e North. but the abolition extremists. H i s patience was a s great a s his judgment w a s sound, and Lincoln t h e man always waited for t h e place and t h e hour. He was a genius of common s e n s e ; his Judgment of men was marvelous, and his trained mind went straight to the heart of all questions, great or small, a s from day to day ] he grandly arose to meet new eondl- , tjoris and unexpected obstacles. These > ATP some of the reasons why Lincoln was s u p e r l a t h e l y great during t h e war a n d w a s able to accomplish all that \\ as done. Because of h i s hntwsty t h e people t r u s t e d him : because of loyalty to friends and principles ihey loved h i m : unit because of Ids judgment, tact, and patience they sustained him. Historic man waited 4.(*H> years for the coming of Lincoln. Such a chara c t e r never lived before, a n d t h e world may never s e e Ids like again.

A new development by which partly deaf persons m a y be made to hear, was shown recently at u meeting of the F a r a d a y society. Kllbur Scott exhibited crystals of rochelle salt, made artificially, which possessed t h e r e m a r k a h l e power of reproducing sounds. Mr. Scott explained t h a t deaf persons could wear a small crystal behind the ear, connected with a little soundbox worn over t h e chest. T h e sounds of conversation would t h e n be transmitted to t h e ear-drum In t h e form of vibrations which would enable them to hear. Three Minds With but One Thought.

They think that without the tea or coffee they take in the morning that they will not be able to meet the tasks and duties of the day. Nothing could be more false than this reasoning. Any doctor can tell you this. For a healthy body does not require a stimulant. It gets all the stimulant it needs from food* The thein and caffeine found in tea and coffee are irritating to the heart and nervous system. They jolt the nerves into undue activity. The result is a reaction. This is why regular tea and coffee drinkers think they must have their stimulant the first thing in the morning to wind them up for the day. If you will stop using tea and coffee for a week, and drink Postum, the pure cereal beverage instead, it will give Nature an opportunity to rid the system of the irritating substances that harass your nerves, upset digestion, increase your heart action, and make you nervous and irritable. Many people who have tried Postum say that inside of a week they wake in the morning without that "all gone" feeling that they used to have, and are full of energy, strength and endurance. Order Poatum from your grocer today, and make it according to directions. Your first sip of Postum will surprise and please you.

Chicago—A reduction of approximately 20 per cent in passenger rates from Chicago to the Pacific Coast Detroit—A clash of Jurisdiction between Federal Judge Arthur J.

Attorney William G. Bryant, law partner of Mr. Emmons, said Sunday that the issue amounts to a "question of the bar."

He turned as the German came into the room. "I leave them to you, Helnrich." he remarked shortly. "Use the dog-whip if they shout, and gag them.'* The German's eyes were fixed on Hugh gloatingly. .

The veins steod out on Drummond's foeehrad at tb^ mention of the girl, but otherwise he gave no sign; and, in silence, they waited for her arrival.

"How did they get you, T o b y f "Half a dozen of 'era suddenly appeared," answered Sinclair shortly, "knocked me on the head, and the next thing I knew I was here in this d—d chair." "Is that when you got your face?" asked Hugh. "No," said Toby,,and his voice was grim. "We share In the matter of faces, old man." "Laklngton again, was It?" said Hugh softly. "Dear Heaven! if I could Ket one hand on that . . ." He broke off and laughed. "What about you, Algy?" "I went blundering In over the way, old bean," returned that worthy, "and some dam' fellow knocked my eyeglass off. So, as I couldn't see to kill htm, I had to Join the picnic here." Hugh laughed, and then suddenly grew serious. "By the way, you didn't see a man chewing gum on the horizon, did you, when 1 made my entrance? Dogrobber suit, and face like a motor-maseot." "Thank God, 1 was spared that!" remarked Algy. "Good!" returned Hugh. "He's probably away with it by now, and he's no fool. For I'm thinking it's only Peter and him between us and—" He left his remark unfinished, and for a while there was silence. "Jerry Is over in France still, putting stamppaper on his machine; Ted's gone up to see that Potts is taking nourishment." "And here we sit like three wellpreserved specimens in a bally museum," broke in Algy, with a rueful laugh, "What'U they do to us, Hugh?" But Drummond did not answer, and the speaker, seeing the look on his face, did not press the question. Slowly the hours dragged on, until the last gleams of daylight had faded from the skylight above, and a solitary electric light, hung centrally, gave the only Illumination.

At length be appeared carrying a tray with bread and water on it, which he placed on a table near Hugh. "Food for you, you English swine," he remarked, looking gloatingly at each In turn. "Heir Lakington the order gave, so that you will fit be tomorrow morning. Fit for the torture." He thrust his flushed face close to Drummond'a, and then deliberately spat at him. Algy Longworth gave a strangled grunt, but Drummond took no notice. With a quiet smile, be looked up st tbe German. ••How much, my friend," he remarked, "are you getting for thisV Tbe German leeeed at him. "Enough to see that you tomorrow are here," he said. \ "And I always believed that yonr* was a business nation," laughed Hugh. "Wby, you poor fool, I've got a thousand pounds in notes in my cigarette case," "lou hof, hof you" tbe German grunted. "Then the filthy Boche will for you of them take care." Hugh looked at him angrily. "If you do," he cried, "you must let me go." * The German leered still more. "Naturlich. You shall out of the bouse at once walk." He stepped up to Drummond and ran his bands over his coat, while the others stared at one another in amazement. Surely Hugh didn't imagine tbe swine would really let him go; he would merely take the money and probably spit in bis face again. Then they beard him speaking, and a sudden gleam of comprehension dawned on their faces. "You'll have to undo one of the ropes, my friend, before you can get at it," said Hugh quietly. For a moment the German hesitated. He looked at the ropes carefully; the one that bound the arms and the upper part of the body was separate from the rope round the legs. Even If he did undo it the fool Englishman was still helpless, and he knew that he was unarmed. Had he not himself removed his revolver, as he lay unconscious In the hall? What risk was there, after all? Besides, if he called some one else In be would have to share the money. And, as he watched the German's Indecision, Hugh's forehead grew damp with sweat. . . . Would he undo the rope? Would greed conquer caution? At last the Boche made up his mind, and went behind the chair. Hugh felt him fumbling with the rope, and flashed an urgent look of caution at the other two. "You'd better be careful, Helnrich," he remarked, "that none of the others see, or you might have to share." *•- -f><v - "-—T —t— i -mitt-*"* W,1**^tBJI I, *tyP had moments of brightness, and he went over and closed the door. Then he resumed the operation of untying the rope; and, since it was performed behind the chair he was In no position to see the look on Drummond's face. Only the two spectators could see that, and they had almost ceased breathing in their excitement That he had a plan they knew; what It wus they could not even guess. At last the rope fell clear and the German sprang back. "Put the case on the table." he cried, having not the slightest Intention cf coming within range of those formidable arms. "Certainly not," raid Hugh, "until you undo my legs. Then you shall have It." Quite loosely he was holding the case tn one hand; but the others, watching his face, saw that it was strained and tense. "First I the notes must have." The German strove to speak conversationally, but all the time he was creeping nearer and nearer to the back of the chair. "Then I your legs undo, and you may go." Algy's warning cry rang out simultaneously with the lightning dart of the Boche's hand as he snatched at the mono. *eay now, Gtsiaio. we've go* a lorry load of the boys ootuhie; yew friend here thought we'd better bring era along. So It's up te you to get busy.r "Mulling* and his crowd." said Dar* rell, seeing the look of mystification oa Hugh'B face. For a few moments Drummond stood, deep in thought; then once again the grin spread slowly over bis face. "Get the boys in. Peter; and get these lumps of meat carted out to the lorry. And, while you do It, well go upstairs and mop up." T H R E E . Even In his wildest dreams Hugh had never imagined such a wonderful opportunity. To be in complete possession of the house, with strong forces at his beck and call, was a state of affairs which rendered him almost 8peechTess. *Keep your guns handy," whlspe-ed Hugh. "We'll draw each room la turn till we find the girl." But they were not to be put to so much trouble. Suddenly a door opposite opened, and the man who had been guarding Phyllis Benton peered enrag AUMB *c*«arabie distance of what they saw In the next few minutes. Slowly, Inexorably, the German's arm was being twisted, while he uttered gasping cries, and beat impotently at Drummond's bead with bis free hand. Then at last there was a dull crack as the arm broke, and a scream of pain, as he lurched round the chair and stood helpless in front of the soldier, who still held the cigarette case in his left hand. They saw Drummond open the cigarette case and take from it what looked like a tube of wood. Then be felt In his pocket and took out a match-box, containing a number of long thin splinters. And, having fitted one of the splinters into the tube he put the other end In bis mouth. With a quick heave they saw him jerk the German round and catch bis unbroken arm with his free left hand. And the two bound watchers looked at Hugh's ejea as he stared at the moaning Boche. and saw that they were hard and merciless. There was a sharp, whistling bias, and the splinter flew from the tube into the German's face. It hung from his cheek, and even tbe ceaseless movement of bis head failed to dislodge It "1 have broken your arm, Boche," said Drummond at length, "and now I have killed you. I'm sorry about it; I wasn't particularly anxious to *nd your life. But it had to be done." The German, hardly conscious #t what be had said owing to the pain in his arm, was frantically kicking the Englishman's legs, still bound to the chair; but the Iron grip on his wrists never slackened. And then quite suddenly came the end. With one dreadful, convulsive heave the German Jerked himself free, and fell doubled up on the floor. Fascinated, they watched him writhing and twisting, until at last, he lay still. . . . The Boche was dead. . . . "What was that blow-pipe affair?" cried Sinclair hoarsely. "The thing they tried to finish me with in Paris last night," answered Hugh grimly, taking a knife out of his waistcoat pocket. "Let us trust that none of his pals come in to look for him." A minute later he stood up, only to sit down again abruptly, as his legs gave way. They were numbed and stiff with the hours he had spent in the same position, and for a while he could do nothing but nib them with his hands, till the blood returned and he conld feel once more. Then, slowly and painfully, he tottered across to the others and set them „ A n d N o w , H a y f K M , e j You.

And then Drummond laughed a low, triumphant laugh. It was the move be had been hoping for, and the German's wrist was held fast in his vise-like grip. His plan had succeeded.

"All fit now? (Jood ! We've got to thfnk what we're going to do. for we're nnt out of the wood yet hy two or three miles." "Let's get the door open," remarked Algy. "and explore." Cautiously they swung It open, and stood motionless. The house was In absolute silence; the hall wax deserted. "Switch out the light," whispered Hugh. "We'll wander round." They crept forward stealthily In the darkness, stopping every now and then to listen. Rut no sound came to their ears; It might have been a house of the dead. Suddenly Drummond, who was In front of the other two, stopped with a warning hiss. A light was streaming out from under a door at the end of a passage and, as they stood watching it, they heard a man's voice coming from the game room. Some one else answered him and then there was silence once more. At length Hugh moved forward again, and the others followed. And It was not until they got quite close to the door that a strange, continuous noise hegan to be noticeable—a noise which came most distinctly from the lighted room. It rose aud fell with monotonous regularity; at times It resembled a brass band—at others It died away to a gentle murmur. And occasionally it was punctuated with a strangled snort. . . . "Great Scott!" muttered Hugh excitedly, "the whole boiling bunch are asleep, or I'll eat my hat." "Then who was It spoke?" said Algy. "At least two of 'em are awake right enough." And, as If In answer to his question, there came the voice again from Inside the room. "Wal, Mr. DarrelL i guess we can pass on. and leave this bunch." With one laugh of joyful amazement Hugh flung open the door, and fotind himself looking from the range of a yard Into two revolvers. "I don't know how you've done It, boys," he remarked, ''but you can put those guns away. I hate looking at them from that end." "What the devil have they done to all your dlal«7" said Darrell, slowly lowering his arm. "We'll leave that for the time," returned Hugh grimly, at he shut the door. "There are other more pressing matters to be discussed." He glanced round the room, and a slow grift spread over his face. There were some twenty of the gang, all of them fast asleep. They sprawled grotesquely over the table, they lolled In chairs; they lay on tbe floor, they huddled in corners. And, without exception, they snored and snorted. "A dandy bunch." remarked the American, casing at them with satisfaction. Then he turned U> DrumouY~ susplciouAly.'"^^^ look of aghast surprise spread ove* his face as he saw the four mcu la front of him.

"This is going to be no place for you in the nenr future." With no further word of protest tb€ girl followed Algy, and Hugh drew a breath of relief.

"Where is he now?" Tbe man hesitated for a moment but the look In Hugh's eyes gslvan ized him Into speech. "He's after the old woman's pearls sir—the duchess of Lampxhire's."

"What la n r "It It 1 a fummary of tbttr winter tteck,* "Tha cost of • tkuif U th* amouat ol what I will call life which is roquirod to b« » • ehsAfod for it."—Thoroau Diphtheria is costly to Michigan every way its cost is figured, states Dr. R. M. Olin, commissioner of health. During each month of 1921 its toll in dead and injured exceeded that of the recent theater disaster in Washington D. C.| he shows, In terms of money tbe lives lost by diphtheria represent a vital waste to the state of $4,755,000, Dr, Olin says, while the loss in years through premature death would total more than 16,000. Increase during 1021 in the diphtheria death from 28.9 to 24.9 per 100,000 population—equivalent to 68 more deaths--represents a cost of $315- 000, or more than enough to furnish all patients in 1922 with antitoxin and permanently immunise with toxin-antitoxin erery person in the state. Sick ness from diphtheria, he estimates, has caused a loss of 20,000 months In absences from school. < Livingston County's 1921 diphtheria death list includes the names of Harry Parker, Leonard C. Reed, UUie Anna Burke, Maurice Miller, and Ltla Smith. "Let the publication of these names serve as a solemn reminder to all parents in the county that diphtheria and croup are dangerous," said Dr. Olin* "They are dangerous," he continued, because parents delay in calling a physician and some physicians fail to use antitoxin. This week ,'completes the state's educational campaign for the use of antitoxin. Teachers, doctors, druggists and editors everywhere have cooperated so thoroughly . t h a t any further deaths from diphtheria can only be charged to carelessness or indifference." I fa th« Truth.

WHEN Policeman William Lawrence of Bath, Me., was found In a dying condition—a bullet having drilled a hole through his lung —It was only natural that Dennis Tracey should take up the trail of the murderers. Tracey was Lawrence's closest friend on the force. No one knew anything about tha circumstances which led up to tha crime, and, apparently, there was little hope of discovering any clue, because Lawoence, though not dead when discovered on the following morning, was extremely weak from exposure and loss of blood. According-to the physicians, it was practically* a certainty that he would die without recovering consciousness. After leaving orders at the hospital that he was to be notified at once If his friend showed signs of being able to talk, Tracey visited the scene of the shooting In the hope of being able to find footprints or other evidence which would assist him In the search which he Intended to make. The investigation, however, was entirely fruitless. The dying policeman's revolver had been fired three times, bul without effect—for Tracey found tho bullets lodged in the rafters of a nearby warehouse, sufficiently close together to provide a hazy outline of the place from which Lawrence's assailant musl have fired. So far as Tracey was able to reconstruct the affair, Lawrence had come upon some one trying to break Into the warehouse, had probably warned him by a shot over his head and followed that by two other shots which failed to take effect. The burglar had then turned and fired point blank at the policeman, dropping him where lie stood. But who was the other man? This was the question to which Tracey determined to devote as much time as necessary, the problem without a clue. It was late the following night before Lawrence's condition showed any nigns of change, and then only for the worse. The physicians gave him only n few hours to live, and Tracey hung continually over the bed, hoping for Copyright. i m .

Finally it came. With an almost superhuman effort (he dying officer raised himself on one elbow, and gathering every ounce of his fast-falling energy, whispered the single word: "Wll-kln-son!" J i ; Then he fell back, dead. Rut that last word was enough. ITad It not been Tracey who heard it, It would have meant nothtnp-r-for the two officers had been secretly working on a number of recent warehouse burglaries and they alone knew of the suspected connection of Dnniel Wilkinson, son of a prominent New Hampshire family, with tho one-man thefts. Now Tracey knew thai not only was Wilkinson guilty of the burglaries, but nf a far greater crime—the murder of Pol Iceman Lawrence. Putting hlmseyi In the place of the criminal, Tracey felt certain that the latter would not remain in or around Path. He must have known that Lawrence had recognized him, and would fear that the dying man would find some way of imparting this knowledge. It was probable, therefore, that he would head for some hiding-place where he would be comparatively safe. Knowing that Wilkinson's family, In an effort to whiten the character of. the black sheep, had sent him to sea a number of years before. Tracey thought it llkeJy that the fugitive would attempt to join the crew of a sailing vessel and lose himself in a foreign port. He accordingly warned the authorities of nil the New England sea ports to be on the watch for a man of Wilkinson's description, and tLen, securing leave of absence, he took up the search—combing the waterfronts of every city and town from the Canadian border to Boston. Tt was nearly six months later, after he had almost abandoned hope, that Tracey wandered along the wharves at Bangor and spotted the man he wanted "porting" lumber into the schooner Good Intent, at the foot of the Railroad street wharf. Without a sound the policeman edged his way along the dock until he was behind Wilkinson, and then dropped on top of his man, flattening him to the deck. Almost before he knew what had happened the fugitive fourtd himself handcuffed and on his way back to Rath, there to be convicted of the murder of William Lawrence, after one of the hardest-fought legal battles In the history of the state. The fact that, in the shadow of the state prison wall at Thomaston. there stands today a headstone bearing the numerals "2005,M does not close the case, for there are many who claim that the murderer had powerful friends who succeeded in saving him from the gallows and helped spirit blm oat of the country into the Canadian Northwest. But Tracey, who is now house detective at a big Florida hotel, considers that he fulfilled his obligations to his dead friend, when, af;er months of patient searching, he located the man who was responsible for Lawrence's death and produced the evidence which led to his conviction.

NEW YEAR LEVEE President Washington's Reception at the White House. ^ Friendly Greetings of Citizens, It Is Recorded, Greatly Pleased the First Chief Executive. "In the Republican Court," a volume published In 1854 by D. Appleton & Company dealing with the administration of Washington, appears the following Interesting description of New Year's activities of 1790, and particularly the manner of observing New- Year's at the White House, where Martha Washington, the ever-considerate spouse, dismissed her guests at 0 o'clock in order that her "general's" slumber might not be interfered with: The winter of 1789-90 was warmer than any which the oldest inhabitants could remember. In the last week of December and the first of January gatdeners and farmers on the island of Manhattan were plowing, and women appeared In the streets of the city in their summer dresses. The pleasant custom of making New Year's calls had long obtained in most of the countries of continental Europe, and it was brought to New York by both the Dutch and the Huguenots, who had preserved !t as one of their peculiar institutions, which never could be naturalized in towns of a more purely English origin and population. On Friday, the first of January, 1700, we are informed by the late venerable John Plntard, who was then a young man of fashion, and a close observer, the President was waited upon by the principal gentlemen of the metropolis. The day was uncommonly mild and agreeable, even for that year of perpetual verdure, and the great festival of friendship was never kept more universally or with a livelier gratification. The visitors of the President, after an interchange of the usual salutations of the day, withdrew, delighted at his gracious manner. Washington's SUttly Bearing. • It is not known, though Mr. Plntard assures us that a majority of them were personally unacquainted with him, that there were any to complain of such a stately bearing as about this time alarmed a sagacious colonel from Virginia for the safety of the republic. This colonel had traveled, and after attending one of the receptions of the President he declared, at the table of r,ov. loverly Randolph, in Richmond, that "his bows were more distant and stiff" than any he had seen at St. James's. A correspondent informed Washington „of the fearful apprehensions thus awakened, and he replied, "That I have not been able to make hows to the taste of poor Colonel Blank, who, by the way, I believe, never saw hut one of them, is to be regretted; especially as, upon that occasion, they were Indiscriminately bestowed and the best I was master of. Would It not have been better to throw the veil of charity over them, ascribing their stiffness to the effects of age, or to the unskillfulness of my teacher, Martha Washington as St>9 Appeared in 1790. (From an Old Engraving.) rather than to pride and dignity of office?" Mrs. Washington's Levee. Mrs. Washington held her levee, as on other Friday evenings, but on no previous occasion had one been graced with so much respectability and elegance. The air was almost as gentle as it should be in May, and the full moon shone so brightly that the streets to a late hour were filled with a delicious twilight. It was not the custom for visitors of the President to sit, but It appears from Mr. Pintard's diary that, on this night, at least, there were chairs in the rooms where Mrs. Washington saw her guests, for "ufter they were seated," tea and coffee, and plum and plain cake, were dispensed by the attending servants. Khe remarked, while speaking of the day's occurrences, that none of them had so pleased the general (by which title she always designated her husband) as the friendly greetings of the gentlemen who called upon him at noon. To an inquiry by the President whether such observances were casual or customary, it was answered that New Year's visiting had always been maintained In the city. He paused a moment, and then observed: "The highly favored situation of New York will, in the process of years, attract numerous emigrants, who will gradually change its ancient customs and manners; but, whatever changes take place, never forget the cordial and cheerful observance of New Year's day." Mrs. Washington had stood by his side as the visitors arrived and were presented, and when the clock In the hall was heard striking 9, she advanced, and with a complacent smile said. "The general always retires at 9, and I usually precede him ;" upon which all arose, made their parting salutations, and withdrew. Kilmer & Co.. Binphamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle.

Observing a poorly dressed man stagger and fall prostrate on the sidewalk, a passing physicjun hurried to his side and began to feel for his pulse. Apparently the man was unconscious and the physician was about to draw his hypodermic syringe from his medicine bag when a workman with a dinner pail In his hand stepped forward from the group of surrounding spectators. "Here, give him some, of this!" be said, exhibiting u whisky llask In his hand. Grabbing this the physician poured part of its contents into the victim's throat, whereupon the victim suddenly raised his head and spat it out, gasping. "Wot're you doin'7" "Reviving you with whisky," said the doctor. "That ain't whisky, It's cold tea." W. N . U . , DETROIT, NO. 7-1922. Solves "Servant" Problem.

Old Indiana Marriage Records Reveal 1 What Would Seem Like a Blighted Romance. Kxamlnation of old records, especially official records, reveal many fin* ' nmrnus writings. On Page '211 of the first marriage renin] ln>nk in Ihe office of the county clerk is one such. In that day, which was IH'.VA, It was 1 the custom for the clergyman or the justice of the peace or whoever performed the ceremony to come to the .clerk's office and personalty write Into the records the fact that so and so • had been married by hjm. On this page the following inscription appeared In Ink: "lie it known that on the thirty-first day of August, A.

Iietieath this, written apparently by the clerk, appeared the additional statement in pencil : "Tfds lady declined the honor."-— Indianapolis News. Beware of stirring tip a sulky man. TREASURE COMMON TO ALL Fame and Character of Washington Honored in All the Countries of the Earth." Webster, this nation's greatest orator, said: "Inspiring auspices, this day, surround us and cheer us. It is the anniversary of the birth of Washington. We should know this, even if we had lost our calendars, for we should be reminded of it by the shouts of Joy and gladness. The whole atmosphere Is redolent of his name; hills and forests, rocks and rivers, echo and reecho his praises. "All the good, whether learned or unlearned, high or low, rich or poor, feel, this day, that there is one treasure common to them all, and that is the fame and character of Washington. They recount his deeds, ponder over his principles and teachings, and resolve to be more and more guided hy them In- the furore." » ' • r \k To win a race a Jockey doesn't put extra weight on the horse that helps him succeed N o man of w o m a n w h o w a n t s to succeed in the race of life can afford the handicap of headaches, insomnia, indigestion and debility.
