"Hunt America Time My whole family—husband, youngsters and assorted inlaws — has just joined a marvelous do-it-yourself program to restore landowners* confidence in hunters. It's called "Hunt America Time/* and its slogan is "Respect Private Property — Save Public Hunting.** The program has two parts. The first is aimed at hunters through publicity, speeches and demonstrations. They are asked to sign a pledge card promising to respect property rights and be careful with firearms. The second phase has us calling on landowners and asking them to permit hunting. Those who agree are given free signs reading "Hunting By Permission _Only" and "Safety Zone — No Hunting Near Buildings.** We even tack up the signs for them, if they wish! And it works — many a "Posted" sign has been replaced by our new signs, once we convinced the landowners that hunters who carry the card will respect their property. Give it a try in your neighborhood. You can get a free pledge kit and sample fence post signs by writing to the Izaak Walton League of America, 1326 Waukegan Road. Glenview, Illinois.

The trio cut telephone wires before fleeing the youth correctional camp in a conservation department truck which was later found wrecked. "Chip" was placed on tracks found south of Pellston by an Emmett county deputy sheriff. He followed them along a railroad track then for 100 yards into the brush, where two of the escapees were found sleeping under a blanket. "Chip" pulled off the blanket and the two made no effort to resist recapture. Apprehended were Donald L. Lincoln, 24, serving three to 15 years for assault and robbery armed, sentenced from Wayne county, and Duane Irwin, 26, serving 15 months to 10 years for embezzlement, sentenced from lngham county. Still at large was Lowell W. Smith, 25, serving 10 months to two years for parole violations, sentenced from lngham county.

Ready with the answer to this need are Michigan's large markets and the nearby markets throughout the midwest. These combined potentials are important advantages no industry can afford to overlook. The facts speak plainly. In Michigan are centralized industrial markets and almost eight million consumers. Personal incomes exceed the national average. These factors assure industry's future growth in Michigan. As for Michigan's regional market, one-fourth of the nation's population and 30 percent of the country's industry are within overnight delivery range of Michigan plants. And now the St. Lawrence Seaway has brought world markets closer to Michigan. Help carry Michigan's message to the nation. Clip this ad and mail it to someone in another state with your own comment.

The hitter's claims were strongly urged, it being contended that the valley was without a single state institution, but it was thought by members of the commission that the water sirpply was not of the right quaiiiy, which was an insurmountable objection. Nearly the entire afternoon wa-s consumed in listening v.. "'.ne arguments. A ballot, was finally taken to determine the views of the commission. Kx-Gov. Luce' voted tor Greenville, Sharp for Saginaw and Sherman for Lapeer. Gn the second ballot Mr. Luce voted with Sherman in favor of Lapeer, but Sharp stood by Saginaw. The latter, however, when the odds were against him. consented to the Lapeer site being selected upon condition that the >trcam of water flowing through the city should be found to be sufficient to accomodate the sewage of the institution. arid there the matter stands. 1 f the stream is too small or if there is liable to 1 e an injunction served restraining the state from using the stream for sewage, the home will doubtless go to Greenville. Lapeer gives the state MO acres of land, upon which there is a tine grove of 15 acres, and an option on ">G2 acres until ls'.i'.i, at a price not to exceed S50 an acre. It furthermore agrees to put in water mains and supply t h e home with water for five years free of charge. NEWS PARAGRAPHS OF A G E N E R A L N A T U R E IN A C O N D E N S E D FORM.

Diphtheria and smallpox have also been spread through cats in this manner. The Washington state comraandery of the military order of Loyal Legion has passed a resolution, for the purpose of stimulating patriotism among the members of the organization, that in future, and for all time whenever the music of the "Star Spangled Banner" shall be played, every member of the Washington commandery present shall immediately rise to his feet and uncover his head and remain standing until the music of its inspiring strains shall h»vt» ceased.

A GREAT historian does n o t obtain t h a t immediate recognition t h a t is accorded to t h e g r e a t orator, t h e g r e a t novelist or even the g r e a t poet. So Francis Parkman worked for years in obscurity, and even a t h i s d e a t h he was not a popular author, lit it Is more than probable t h a t he will take h i s rank, ultimately, among t h e 'great historians of t h e world. N o w t h a t t h e casualties of t h e Louisiana storm have been footed up it is found t h a t only fifty-three of t h e 2,008 victims were negroes. T h e Acadians, whom Longfellow immortalized in " E v a n g e l i n e , " outnumbered all other races, but there was a large, admixture of Austrian*. Creoles, Islingues, Italians. Manillamen, Chinese and Spaniards in t h e list of t h e dead. A MAN, so called, h a s just been «ent t o jail for four m o n t h s for having amused himself bv pouring water from a window upon a family Bleeping on ragB under a bit - of canvas.

I t evidently s t a r t e d o u t to be a beast with horns. T E K O A , Wash., has adopted t h e ball and chain punishment for tramps, and i t s first application is interesting. T h e t r a m p was made fast to a ball and chain and ^ put to work on the street. While his g u a r d was taking a rest the prisoner picked up the cannon ball and started to walk out of town with it. l i e was captured, however, and was penalised lor h i s attempted escape by having three balls and chains attached to him. IT is gratifying to our racial pride to learn t h a t manv of t h e crafty oriental fakirs in Midway who have been selling plasters worth four cents to the guileless American public for $3 all summer found t h a t a goodly proportion of their ill-gotten gains consisted of Confederate and extinct state bank bills when they came to "cash in." Fair exchange is no robbery, and a $0 Confederate bill is surely as valuable as a souvenir in Syria a-* a bogus Turkish plaster is as a souvenir in America. T H E St. James Budget pokes fun at We newspapers of this country because they print personal gossip concerning literary people, who are possibly quite interesting, and at least earn an honest living. Then in a succeeding column t h e Budget proceeds to detail a lot of t a t t l e about royalty, and His Nobs this and Her Nibs that, people who have not even t h e m e r i t of being interesting and for t h e most p a r t . a r e paupers, living off t h e oharity of a nation to which they a r e of no use even as ornameu ts. 1» his brave plea for justice to t h e Matabeles, a t the hands of Great Britain, Mr. Laboucheie found himself in a minority in parliament, but he is supported by t h e better sentim e n t of the English people and civilized nations generally. In a second so-called battle between t h e natives and British soldiers 1.0)0 of t h e former were mowed down with machine guns, while t h e British loss is givei* a t five. Whatever t h e pretext for eeizlng t h e Matabele territory, this wholesale slaughter of t h e natives cannot be justified on any grounds consistent with humanity. T H E discovery of poison in Boston pies is likely to shake the American Athens from Commercial street to Back Bay park. N e x t to baked beans, pie has been t h e staple on Boston bills of fare. Pio for breakfast, pie for dinner aim pio for supper, with an extra large slice as a s o r t of nightcap just before going to bed, h a s ouen the regular gastr.momio succession. The use of pie as a vehicle for t h e introdiu tion of cold poison-into the human anatomy will s h a k e Bostontan confidence, and will, as a m a t t e r of fact, cast a »ver t h e entire community. With t h e bijf number of railroad accidents which have marked t h e Columbian year t h e r e h a s been a widespread boom given to t h e a r t of t h e tattooer. There h a s been such a large percentage of unidentitied dead among those killed in the amash-ups on t h e railroads of t h e country during the past few months that i t h a s a r e m a r k a b l e effect on t h e traveling p u b l i c Men and women who a year ago would have shuadered at t h e mere suggestion of having t h e point of a tattooing needle touch their skin a r e having their names, monograms and even crests tattooed upon t h e i r bodies. And they all say t h a t they have been tattooed in 1ht» belief t h a t t h e m a r k s made by t h e needle will bo Iho best means for the indentilication of t h e i r bodies should they meet death away from their homo and friends, says the Philadelphia Record. But there is Another class of people who, caught by t h e popular fad, are having emblems of secret societies and fraternities to which they belong, mark&d upon their skin. Many of the best known college men of t h e country carry t h e insignia of their fraternity worked upon their arms. I t is among the d r u m m e r s and members of t h e theatrical profession, however, t h a t t h e tattoo man finds his greatest n u m l e r of p a t r o n s They spend a large portion of their lives in railroad cars: their danger from death in wrecks is g r e a t e r than any other class of people, excepting railroad men. postal clerks and express mes.-eng.3rs, and t h e tattooer is reaping a rich reward of coin from them. With t h e spread of t h e tattooing fad in all parts of t h e United States the work with the ink and needle has been made wall-nigh painless. | The tattooing a r t has kept step with the march of progress in other directions and a brand-new method of puncturing t h e skin has taken the place of the old; Instead of t h e laborious work of early days an electric tattoo machine has been invented. Where it r e h i r e d an hour in t h e old-fashioned way to tattoo a namo or a figure, the electric machine docs it in a few minutes. T h e inventor of the. machine is in the city, and lately he chatted interestingly of tattooing in general and the prevalent craze in particular. He is Professor O-'Riley, probably the best known tattooer in either t h e I'nited States or (ireat Britain. Many of the most noted tattooed men .and women who have been on exhibition on both sides of the Atlantic are examples of his skill. " I have tattooed thousands of persons, both in this country and Kngland," he said, " b u t at present the craze exceeds anything I have ever exprriene. d during the last twenty years. Most people believe that only sailors and a vulyar class in general have tattoo marks put upon them. That is true in many instances, but by far the largest number of those that I am tattooing now are men and women of intelligence and refinement. T h e only explanation that I can make for this is that the danger of being buried among the unknown dead in case of a railroad, steamboat or other accident has been so strangely emphasized during the past year that men and women who travel much very wisely have the needles and ink place sure identic fication marks upon their bodies. "Many of those tattooed, the ladies especially, have t h e work done with artistic surroundings. Men generally want to bo tattooed on the arms, while t h e women almost invariably have t h e decoration placed on the lower limb. I recently tatooed a serpent in brilliant colors around the leg of one of the best known comic opera prima donnas of the country. It bears her name in delicate letters. Another popular actress had me place a garter in vivid hues below the kneo of her left leg and tattoo upon it 'Tom.' t h e name of h e r sweetheart, and one of t h e most prominent juvenile men in the profession. j "I tattooed the insignia of Delta ' Kappa Epsilon, one of the strongest of college fraternities, upon tho a r m of almost every member of the society. George Gould is one of the ' young men upon whose arm I placed i the symbol of tho fraternity. " j •"Almost every day I put secret society mat*ks on the arms of patrons. ' Two months ago I was surprised by ! a call from a tramp. He wanted a p e c u l i a r mark by which he was known to knights of the road tattooed in the I palm of his right hand." ' !

"She is shy, perhaps," said Gaston. "I should not think she could be proud-" Suzon looked at him sharply with those flashing eyes of hers—tine eyes, full, black, luminous, but not altogether beautiful. "What does monsieur know of this young person that he is so ready to answer for her'.'" She asked, with a mocking air. "Very little. I passed her in the street Just now. I doubt if I ever saw her till that moment, though we live in the same house. Some faces can be read at a glance. In hers I saw purity, sweetness, truth, simplicity." "My faith! You are skillful at reading faces!" retorted Madame Michel; "but it is easy to see virtues of that kind in a pretty woman. Had Ma'mselle Hara been ugly you would not have discovered half these qualities in her face." "They might have been there, perhaps; but I own I should not have looked so keenly. She is the image of a Greuze in the Louvre. You know the picture in the Louvre?" "Not much," said Suzon, with a careless Shrug. "Why, you go there nearly every Sunday afternoon." "True; but I go to look at the people, not the pictures." Gaston paid for his breakfast, and-strolled on to his newspaper-office, thinking that Suzon grew more vulgar every day. He was vexed with himself for having allowed her to establish a kind of friendship with him. She! the keeper of a milk shop! "And to think that I come from one of the best fnmilies in Brittany," he said to himself. "Well, I have thrown my lot in with the people. I have made myself their advocate; I have asserted the equal rights of man. Ought I to feel offended if a milk woman treats me as her friend? A handsome woman, too; bright, agreeable, not without Intieiigenee.and full of strong feeling. Poor little Suzon!" Poor little Suzon! Gaston began to lessen his visits to the cranerle. He took a cup of coffee in the garret, and went straight to his day's work. lie was too busy to breakfast in the old leisurely manner, he told Madame Michel, wlien she reproached him With this failing off from the old ways. "Have I done anything to offend you?" she asked, looking at him with eyes which took a new beauty, softened by sadness. "Offend me, dear Madame Michel I But assuredly not. You are all that is good. But I am working hard just now. It does not do for a niau*o saunter through life, to be always a trifler. 1 have, a good def 1 to do for the paper; and I spend an hour or two every day at the Imperial Library." "If you are getting a learned man I shall see no more of you," sighed the widow. "You will not be able to endure my ignorant chatter." "Gaiety of heart is delightful at all times," said Gaston. "I begin to think that monsieur must be writing verses, he has grown so grave and silent," remarked Suzon. And then they parted, with ceremonious politeness on his side, with keen scrutiny and suspicion on hers. Monsieur was not writing verses, but he was living a poem. Maman Schubert, the good-natured busybody of the Kue Git le C'oeur, had planned a little tea-party—unthe a VAnglaUe—and had invited the two O'Hara girls—known in their little circle as the Demoiselles Hnra, sii>ce the 0 was too much for a Parisian mouth—and Philip Durand, the cabinet-maker,an honest young fellow, a thorough workman and artist, in a very artistic trade.and a prominent member of theworkmen'ssyndicatejandthecabinet- , makers' syud cate ranks high among the so- I cleties of French workmen. So far the party , consisted of old friends, since good Madame j Schubert had been almost asa mother to the girls whom she had seen arrive In the Kife Git j le Cceur,dustyand bewildered-tooking.on the I evening of their entry into Paris, and Pnllip l had been Rose's devoted lover for the last ] three years.hauntiug her like her shadow as '> she went to and from her work,in the early ; mornings when PurLs was being swept and garnished, in the dusky evenings when its million lamps were being lighted. Never was there a more unselfish, a more patient wooer. Pone had been hard with him;Rose had kept him at arm's length. She never meant to many. She had her mission In life; and that mission vras to take care of Kathleen. "Will you be less able to guard her when 700 hate a strong wan to help you?" asked FhTllp. "Do you suppose I slfall grudge her a room In our lodgings, a place at our table? She will be my sister as much as yours, and as dear to me as to you." 'That cannot be. She is more than a sister to me. She Is the one love and care of my life. Work would lose all its sweetness if I did not know I was working for her as well as for myself. 1 am sure you are good and generous. 1 daresay you would be kind to her; but you might grow weary of her; bad times might come, and you might think her a burden. 1 will run no risks. I should feel as if I were giving her a stepfather." "And have you made up your mind never to marry?" "Never, while Kathleen is single. If she were well married it might be different." "Then it shall be my business to find her a good husband," said Philip. "With such a pretty girl there can be no difficulty." But Philip Durand was a poor hand at match-making. While he was thinking about the business, and wondering which of the men lie rubbed shoulders with at the workmen's chamber was worthy to mate withlio.se O'Hara's sister, Madame Schubert, who was an incorrigible schemer in the matrimonial line, had brought Kathleen face to face with the man whom Fate meant for her husband. The fourth guest and only stranger at Madame Schubert's English tea was Gaston Mortemar; and that evening completed Kathleen's conquest. He was her adorer and her slave from that hour. It seemed to him as if all life took new colors after that evening. The leopard cannot change his spots all at once;but the leopard's ways and manners may be considerably influenced; and although Gaston was still Voltairian in his way of thinking, still a leveler in politics, lie worked more earnestly and more honestly than he had ever done before; for he had assumed the responsibility of winning a bright future for Kathleen O'Hara. The wooing and winning were easily done, for the girl's young heart went out to him as Gretchen's to Faust, A little walk on the bridge in the summer twilight, a flower or two—bought in the dower-market, but cherished as if it were a blossom of supernal growth—a chance meeting in the sunny morning,when Kathleen was marketing, and these two were pledged to each other for life. But Rose was terribly wise. She seemed the very spirit of worldliness, and she refused her consent to an imprudent marriage. When Gaston had saved a little money, and could earn, say, three napoleons a week—which was less than the skilled cabinet-maker earned—Kathleen should be his wife; not sooner. Gaston was earning on an average two napoleons weekly, and there was not much margin for saving out of that. Hitherto he had found himself just able to live, clothe himself like a gentleman,and keep out of debt And to do even this he had been thrifty and self-denying. But what will not love do? He became as sparing as Pere Grandet; except when he wanted to Offer a little pleasure, a theatre or a cafe ' chantant, to the sisters. inch offers were but rarely accepted. Rose watched Kathleen like a lynx, and allowed few tcte-a-tetcs between the lovers, Never was girlish simplicity guarded more c.osely from all peril of pollution. But, once in a way, this severe damsel relented so far as to allow the two lovers to organise an evening's dissipation; and it was on one of these occasions, almost immediately after Kathleen's engagement, that Suzon Michel saw Gaston and his sweetheart together for the first time. It was a sultry August evening, the Seine shining in the golden light of the western sky, the air heavy with heat. Durand and Gaston had bought tickets fur the side-boxes at the Ambigu, where a new play, by Dumas the younger, was being acted, to the delight of all Paris—or, at least, that inferior and second-rate Paris which had not migrated to fashionable watering-places and mountain springs. Kathleen and Gaston walked armin- arm along the quay, so engrossed in each other as to be quite unconscious of passersby. Faces came and went beside them, voices sounded; but it was all dim as the sounds and faces in a dream. They lived, they saw, they heard, they breathed only for each other. Close behind them came Rose and her faithful swain; and Rose, even in her tenderest moments, was mindful of her sister. She was fond and proud of her stalwart, good-looking workman-lover, who was so fine a specimen of his rank and race, as much a gentleman by nature as Gaston Mortemar was a gentleman by hereditary instinct; but she was not lifted off this dull earth by her love. As they walked towards the Pont Neuf, with their faces to the west and the sun shining on them, Suzon Michel met them. She saw them ever so far off; the tall slight figure of the man, whose look and bearing she knew so well; the golden-haired girl at his side, radiant and lovely in her plain alpaca gown, and neat little black lace bonne. t, with clusters of violets nestling between the lace and her sunny hair—those violets which the auburn-haired Empress loved so well. Suzon slackened her pace as they drew near her. He would recognise her, of course —the false-hearted one; and speak her fair, albeit he had broken her heart by Ms coldness and ingratitude. He would stop, the audacious one, and brazen out hlstreacheiy, and make light of his heartlessness. But Gnston walked on without seeing her. He passed her by. unconscious of her presence, his eyes bent with impassioned love upon the pure pale face beside him, his lips breathing softest words. Snzon drew aside, and stood upon the pavement, looking after them with diabolical hate in her face. Rose saw that look, and clutched Philip Durand's arm. VDid you see that woman looking after my sister—the woman at the crcmtTief she asked. But Philip had been too much absorbed in his betrothed to have eyes for the divers expressions of the passers by. He was full of gladness, thankfulness for hi3 lot. He had been eminently successful as a craftsman, had won a medal for a piece of fine workmanship^ in the Exhibition of '76; he j was looked upon as a leading light in the I syndicate, ami the dearest woman in the world had promised to be his wife. Now that Kathleen was engaged there was no more difficulty. So soon a* Gaston was in a fair way to maintain a wife, the two couples would be united. j The evening at the Ambigu was enchant* j a e n t ; but both girls refused the luxury of ices at Tortonl*". Hovr were lovers to be thrifty if their betrothed were ready to aeecpt costly attentions? Besides, as they passed the famous confectioner's, Rose caught sight of a couple of carriages setting down some ladies and their eavaJiers at a side door, and those painted faces and rustling silks belonged to a world from which Rose O'Hara recoiled as from a pestilence. So they all walked home in the August moonlight, talking of the play, and were safe in the Rue Git le Coeur before midnight. Rose did not forget that look of Madame Michel's. Her intense affection for Kathleen made her suspicious of Kathleen's lover. Such a look as-that in. a young woman's face could but have one meaning. It meant jealousy; and there coald hardly be jealousy without cau.se. The look suggested a history, and Rose set herself to find out that history. S ie consulted Madame Schubert, the one friend whom she could trust in so delicate a matter, and! the good Schubert was r»ot long in enlightening her. One does not live in such a place as the Ruo Git le Coeur for live-and-twenty years without knowing a good deal about one's neighbors. "Yes, my dear, there is no doubt this dear Mortemar had ouee a tenderness for the Michel. He used to breakfast at her shop every morning—a leisurely breakfast,during which those two talked—ah, great Heaven, how they talked! one could hardly get properly served while he was there. And he danced with l*er in the winter at the Bullier balls, and he usod to take her to the theatre. Friends of mine saw them there, as happy as turtle-doves. But what of that? A man must sow his wild oats; and Gaston is not the less fond of your sister because he has played fast and loose with the Michel." "My sister shall not marry a man who has played fast and loose with any woman," said Rose. "That is rank nonsense," answered Maman Sci.ubert. "Mark my words, Rose; if you try to part those two, you will break Kathleen's heart." "Better her heart should be broken than by a bad husband," said Rose. "He will not make a bad husband. Do you think a man is any the worse for a flirtation or two in his bachelor days? That is the way he learns the meaning of real love." Rose was not easily appeased. She saw Gaston next day, and taxed him with his dishonorable conduct to the widow. He was indignant at the charge, and declared that there had never been anything serious between them. She had been attentive to him as a customer at her crcmerie; he had been civil to her—that was all. The visits to the theatre meant no more than civility. 'There was something more than civility on her part, and I think you must have known it," answered Rose, intensely in earnest. "If you knew-nt and fooled her, you are not a good true man; and you shall not marry my sister." Gaston protested against this absurd decree: but finally admitted that he had been to blame. Yes, perhaps he had known that Madame Michel was just a little taken with him, inclined to like his society, and to be Jealous and angry when he deserted hex shop. The shop was convenient; the woman was handsome and amusing. Why should not a man who was heart-whole.who had not one real woman-friend in the word, talk and laugh with a pretty shopkeeper? It could do no harm. "It has done harm. I saw «3 much in Madame Michel's face the other evening." And then she told Gaston the story q£,.that encounter on the quay. "Mademoiselle Rose, you exaggerate the situation. The Michel has a spice of the devil in her, and can giv« black looks on very slight provocation. For the rest, she and I have seen the la>t of each other. I have never crossed the threshold since I was betrothed to Kathleen;! never shall cross it airain." "Promise me that," said Rose. "I promise, from my heart.'' This happened in the year '09; and now it was midsummer in the fateful year '70, a id France was treading daily, step by step, nearer the edge of the abyss. C H A P T E R l y . THE SONG OP VICTORY. It was at the beginning of August, Just after the victory of S.irrehruck, and while Paris was (stirred »nd thrilled with dreams of conquest, and ail a-flutter with warlike feeling, that the two sisters were married in the cathedral of Notre Dame, on a sunshiay Saturday morning. There was no finery at this wedding, no train of friends, Madame Schubert; a young Journalist and playwright who wrote foi Mortemar's paper; a middle-aged graybearded artist, who had painted plaques for some of Durand's cabinet-work—these were the only guests. The little procession walked across the bridge in the morningsunlight, the sisters dressed alike in gray cashmere, with white bonnets, and each wearing a cluster of white roses at her throat Nothing could hi simpler or less costly than thii wedding toilet, yet both brides were charming; neatness, purity, nrndest cqntentmenl with humble fortunes, were all expressed ia their bearing and costume.

The meeting was called to order by the president, and after opening exercises, Frank Shields gave a very interesting and instructive talk on the legal phase ot the subject, "Farmers' rights vs. leiepuoue companies' rigtits." Mr. Shiehis said all people were Supposed to hold and enjoy ail rights in common and the farmer was no exceptiou. Thought the courts looked upon leiepuoue, telegraph and rail road compaui<s with a degree of favor on the account of their being a public benefit; therefore franchises were granted corporations, and private property was taken fur public purposes; however corporations must show the necessity for the establishment of tbeir lines of business before they can force tlie right of way over private property and then only by just aud fair Compensation for privileges granted. Mr. Shields staled at the commencement that any question that might be asked would be no interruption, hence many questions were given him for solution and thus the forenoon session was profitably spent.

Next on the program was a paper by A. G. Wilson, on the subject of " Transportation." Mr. Wilson handled this subject in a very practical manner and the position taken by the writer wis quite generally held by the meeting as shown by ihe discussion which followed. Mr. Wilson appreciated the benefits of good transportation facilities but thought evils existed in the present system and that the people had good reason for complaint as railroad com- "piiioK T?rihp<5 panies discriminate in favor of the large shippers; cited the Standard Oil Co. a* \ favorite of the railroad companies; Said, that theoretically, government ownership presented the needed remedy but thought there might be some less radical means to secure justice in this great branch of needed industry. Suggested more stringent laws regulating rates and establishing uniformity in same and their rigid enforcement.

Dead of » Maniac. A most horrible and brutal murder •was committed in Detroit on the evening of the 2d. The victim was .John M. Reindcl, who conducted a bicycle repair shop on Gnswold street, next door to the Capital Square Theater. As Mr. Keindel was known to always carry quite a roll of money it was at first thought that the killing was the work of auburglar, who committed the deed in order to cover up any clue to his identity. Later, however, a man by the name of Thomas Denton applied at police headquarters for admittance, and after being given a ceil, a physicians was called, who, after making an examination, pronounced the man insane. When, questioned Kenton admitted that he knew Keindel. and that he killed him and then poured gasoline upon his clothing and set it atire. Whether the insane man committed the deed with the intent of robbery, or whether it was just an insane desire to kill is a mystery. An Effort to Recruit O. A. B. Department Commander Pealer, of the G. A. It., in Michigan, is making a «trong effort to recruit the order. He has just issued general order No. 2, in which he states that there are now 3S5 posts in the state, and it is impossible to visit them all, he makes some suggestions for the work of the coming winter. First he would have great •care exercised in the selection of oosi -officers at the approaching elections. The new officers, he says, should be the most competent and loyal men to be found in the posts. They should all be recruiting officers. There should be no schemes to keep comrades out of the O. A. R. No political considerations . should be allowed to influence the action of members. Especially it is urged that an effect be made to win back old members who have fallen out of the ranks. Each post is ordered to make a speeial effort to secure at least five new members within the next three months. STATK GOSSIP. New Vie for Cornstalk*. A series of experiments which have been carried on for some time past by the agricultural department have recently developed a new use for cornstalks, from which a very valuable horse and cattle food can now be made. The department has done a great deal of work with cornstalks in the past year and has developed several valuable uses for them, namely coirerdam packing for warships, a high grade of writing paper, the basis for a smokeless powder superior to the picric acid powders, several other uses. The new cattle food is made by grinding the dry cornstalks, leaves and tops, to a .powder and mixing it with blood and molasses or both. This is pressed into cakes under a hydraulic press, and c;»n be shipped as easily as bricks or cordwood. For feeding it is broken up and mixed with water. White Cloud is to have electric lights before long. A new opera house is one of the possibilities for Saugatuck. Hollanders at Holland on the 25th donated 8300 for Red Cross aid for the Uoers. The postofflcc at Five Lakes was broken into on the 20th and about $05 taken. There is a poultry dealer at Otsego whose name, appropriately enough, is Caekler. Koiueo can secure a stave factory if a suitable building is donated for the purpose. Diphtheria seems to be epidemic in Florence and Northwest townships, Hillsdale county. The new opera house now in course of construction at Sheridan is fast nearing completion. Wreckers made two attempts to wreck trains on the Michigan Central near Mason recently. Now that Caro has a sugar factory, she is on the hustle to get a chicory factory to go with it. Geo. Kerns, a Dalton saloon keeper, has paid a line of $50 for keeping his place open on Sunday. The Methodists of Saline dedicated their tine new edifice with appropriate ceremonies on the 20th. The annual reunion of the 3d Michigan infantry will be held at Grand Kapids on December 13.

The annual reunion of the veterans of the .0th Michigan cavalry will be held at Ionia on December 27. A cement factory to cost 8200.000 is projected for Homer Lake, where plenty of marl of good quality exists. The first sugar made by the new beet sugar factory at Kalamazoo was turned out on the 17th. The beets test well. A SI0.000 brick manufactory, with all the modern appliances, will be a new industry at St. Joseph next spring. | The first hard snow storm of the sea- j son in the upper peninsula started on ; the 3d. Sleighs were out at Marquette j on that date. j How many people know that Jackson, j now one of the leading cities of the j state, was once called Jaeksonburg? The burg was dropped in 1833. 5 Horses aroi;nd Vienna, Gene*ee county, are dying of some disease, the symptoms of which balnea the farmers. Of the 200 heirs of the estate of the late J acob Maker, of Germany, which, it is alleged, amounts to $30,000,000, principally in real estate in Philadelphia, 13 or 13 are living in Huron county. The Ithaca council has taken a long step in the right direction by buying a 20-acre gravel pit near the city, the gravel from which will be used in improving the roads leading in from the country. Secretary Gage, of Washington, on the 27th forwarded to ex-Congressman Stephenson at Menominee a draft for $4,200 in payment for the lot at that place, on which the public building is to be loeated.

Deputy Came Wardens P-mnctt and Atkinson seized a quantity of venison at the Michigan Central depot, Hay City, on the 27th, shipped from the north without a license tag attached. j It was consigned to Plymouth and Oxford. Manchester people have an idea that there is gas. or oil, or mineral water, or something worth going after, underlying their village, and efforts will be made to raise a fund sufficient to put down a test well to verify or disprove their belief. Diphtheria now exists at White Pigeon in malignant form and the school and churches have been closed for the time being. One little girl who was in school on the 20th died of the disease on the 23d. and about 400 pupils were thus exposed. Would it not'be a good thing if the farmers of the state would take half the money which is now spent on Ixjtched jobs of repairing roads and use it in building roads upon correct prin- | copies? Surely it would be only a few ; years until the farmers could get to I town at all seasons .with something more than an empty wagon. j The 12 census supervisors of the state j held a conference at Lansing on the 1st ! relative to methods of work and the i«- j terpretation of certain blanks, instruc- Lowell people seem to be very fond tions, etc.. the object being to secure dogs.

The grand jury which is eapraged in investigating the charges of fraudulent legislation by the last legislature. has already returned three indictments against the following persons: E. J. Adams, speaker of the Last legislature; Wm. A. French, state land cointais- -sioner, and Chas. H. Pratt, whose story brought about the charges that convicted the above officials of felonies. W. A. French has been admitted to bail in the sum of $3,000. Two more indictments have been returned by the grand jury, but the names of the victims are suppressed. There is no doubt but what the charges were based on the dicker over the antitrust bill, as it is alleged $500 was demanded of the Grand Rapids wholesale grocers for the purpose of sidetracking thebilL That M«w Fruit LAW.

Chas. Hentley and Hiram Waite, of Fort'Huron, were around the city on the 1st, meeting old friends, who have stood by them since they were sent to prison several years ago. They were pardoned on Thanksgiving day, and, although a parole only, was asked for Bentley. he received a full pardon. The men will go to work in that city, and friends will help them regain the reputation which was lost when they were arrested.

Young, of Flint township, has had fresh berries from his patch many times in the last few weeks. Nearly $2,000,000 worth of property was destroyed by fire in the heart of the business section of Philadelphia on the 29th.

Secretary of War Root's First Report The first annual report of Secretary of War Root, made public on the 1st, is of exceptional interest, dealing as it does with large questions of insular policy; of army reorganization; of the future of Cuba, and of the campaign in the Philippines. The report begins with a recital of the policy followed in reorganizing the array in accordance with the necessities arising from the discharge of the state volunteers and of the men enlisted for the Spanish- American war, and gives statistics of the past and present strength of the organization, covering in that respect matters dealt with in the reports of the major-general commanding and of the adjutant-generaL ^ y..• i The regular army is distributed as follows; In Cuba, officers* 334: enlisted men, 10,706; in Porto Rieo, officers, 87; enlisted men, 2,855; on the continent of North America, officers. 910; unlisted men, 17,317; in Hawaii, officers. 12; enlisted men. 453; in the Philippine islands, officers, 905; enlisted men, 30,578.

The Boers were shelled during the final retreat, and must have lost heavily, but they succeeded in getting away northward with their six guns. The British were badly in need of more cavalry; The bulk of the fighting was on Free> State territory and the engagement was admirably planned. Thirty Boer wounded are under treatment at ©range- River.

A few d»ys ago the President was asked oxu behalf of Gov. Bradley, of Kentucky* whether he would send federal trofsBs to assist state forces in case riot ensued on the attempt to seat Taylor as governor. The President referred th* matter to Atty.-Gea. Griggs and Secretary Root, as. it was claimed by Kentucky Democrats that as the kite election was not in any sense federal, the President bad no right to interfere. The President has received Grig*8' opinion that he eanaead troops. Atty.-Gen. Griggs, also maintained that it was the President's constitutional right so to act no matter what caused the riot, and especially where the governor declares martial law and asks the federal government for aid, as Gov.

MacArthur is now in Bayaray bong (or Bayamban), preparing to sweep the country on both wides of the Munila-Dagupan railroad. Gen. Wheaton is at San Fabian and Gen. Lawton at Tayufl. The cordon, from San Fabian to Sun Isidro covers <yaU the roadsand occupies all towns on the line. The American policy is to prevent any more insurgents escaping to the north and to force them toward the country west of the railroad. Maj. March, with a battalion of the 33d infantry, occupies Vigan, .having made a forced march from San Fabian. The remainder of the regiment are on the way,., Gem- Young with a handful! of cavalry audi the Macabebes is in Vigan and Lieut.-- Col.

There are 5,000 Spanish prisoners in Abra province, whose release through the military operations , is expected soon. When the transport Manauense anchored in Manila bay on the morning of Nov. 23th, Z2 days from San Franeisco, there were several feet of water in her hold and 400 grimy, greasy, hungry, exhausted soldiers and sailors, who had been passing buckets of water since Nov. 17, night and day. First Assistant Engineer Dunlcavy was under arrest, and, according to Col. Webb Hayesf official report, the chief engineer would also have been under arrest if there had been anyone to rfeplaoe hia. The colonel's report declares^ that the captain of the vessel told binn that the only thing which brought thttm through was the fact that the men were greenhorns and failed to> realize their danger, while experienced seamen would have deserted the ship and taken, to the boats in mid-ocean. Three hundred Spanish prisoners who escaped from their captors before the American advance, including civil officials of rank, who had l>eeu in the hand ; of the Filipinos for more than a year and many officers, have arrived at Manila during the past week. Francisco Royes brought 100 of them from Gen. Whe&ton-. They were a motley clothed and bearded company. Some were ill.and had to be carried from Tayug to Sun. Fabian in army wagons. A delegation of thefce former prisoners visited Gem Otis in order to thank him for his hospitality which included the furnishing of food and clothes.

"What I want, to tell you, Kitty, is ^nis. I am bringing a visitor here tonight to.§lecp. l want no one to know that be la here. He is eluding justice. I i m sorry to say that I am abetting him." "John, what has he done?" "Don't be frightened, Kitty. We can •leep in safety without fearing for our lives. He has forged a cheque—a cheque for a large amount. It is not his first offense. Many years ago he was guilty pf a similar forgery; then the would-be prosecutor was bought off, the case was never brought into court. This time he has to deal with men who are made of sterner stuff. They will hear no compromise; they insist on prosecuting; for weeks past I have been trying to negotiate with them, to save him. I have failed.." "Is he worth it, -John—worth all your work?" "No, I think not." "Why are you so anxious, then?" "For old friendship's sake." "Was he an old iriend of yours? Oh, let him come here;, we can hide him!" "Kitty, you spoke then almost as your old self might have spoken. No, dear, he was never a dear friend of mine. As I said before, Kitty, you must be content with half confidences. A few weeks ago I hoped he had escaped. He could not be found. Then we discovered that he had returned to London and was here in hiding. Today I find, what I feared yesterday, that his hiding place has been discovered; he dares not return there tonight. When it is much later and the way is clear, I shall bring him here. No one need see him, Kitty. I have a I turned toward the door; he opened It for me, smiling at me as he did so. "Thank you, Kitty," he said in r. grateful tone. "You have helped m i very much." "A wifely duty!" I returned, with A bitter little smile. "Don't thank me, I was bound to help you;" and * turned away from him with the sounf of my own bitter mocking voice ring ing in my ears. CHAPTER XV. "Heigh-ho, what a long evening thi' is!" and Meg sighed. "Wind and rain, wind and rain; listen to it." "Don't stand at the window, Meg," { urged. But Meg did not heed me. She stood between the parted curtains, and looked out across the wet pavement shining in the gaslight. "Madame Arnaud!" cried Meg suddenly. "Madame Arnaud?" I repeated. "She is coming in with John. Sh«» chooses strange hours for calling, Kit • ty; the clock is just striking nine W*ll, I aa= glad that some one haJ come to enliven our dullness—even a dull caller is better than no one." "But not tonight," I said absently. Meg turned away from the window | we both waited for John to brinr. Madame Arnaud into the drawingroom. We waited in vain. Ther^ were steps in the hall, then John'f. study door closed, and all was alien* in the house. Meg and I were silent, too; the rail* beat against the panes; I sat and 1:«* tened to it absently. Presently Mejr crossed the room and stood beside *uy chair, and kissed me caressingly. "Madame Arnaud must have gon<« again," I said, almost defiantly, defying Meg's unspoken sympathy, turning anil looking up at her. Meg did not answer. Presently s h i l«^/N^*%^^^^^^*%^*v^s*^/^^^^^^^%|•^l^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^»^^^w^^^^»^^^^^^v> I LOOKED STRA IGHT AT HIM. > * • disguise prepared for him. Tomorrow, when he leaves here, he will, I hope, be uncecogsJjable. His berth has been taken for lim in another name in a ahip for Sv'uth America. Once there, be will be beyond the law." Jokn stood talking to me for some time longer, arraneiflg the details of our plot. "Shall I see him, JohnT" I asked. «? think not, Kitty.'> X rose at last to go. John detained a minute longer. "Not a word to Meg," he warned "No/* I promised. "One would not willingly trust state •ecreU to Meg," he added, with a slight •mile. "Try to keep her with you all the evening, Kitty. A s for the servants, 1 wtll tell them t o build up the study fire and then « o t t e disturb me again tonight. Wfeeav dinner i s over, take Mejf baok to the draWinjf-reom a n d keep her there." ' "Too will not be at dinner, John?" "No," be answered abstractedly. "I am going ont now." "WhereV I asked. The question escaped me before I had time to think; it was not often that I questioned him about his goings. He looked a little vexed at the question • o w . "To Madame Arnaud'i," he answered dimply. drew a low chair just opposite toTninr, An hour dragged by. All through that hour, even while Meg talked, I was listening with a strained attention. "Go to bed, Meg," I said at la»rv pleadingly. "Why, Kitty?" "Do go, Meg," I urged. Meg glanced at me. Then for o n « s she rose and kissed me again and went. The wind bad risen; the rain befA deafeningly against the window. Sounds in the house were lost in the sounds of the storm outside. I crossed the room, took up my stand at tbr> window, where Meg had been standing, and closed the curtains behind me to shut out the light of the room. Minutes went by, minutes thtt seemed like hours. At last the house door opened, shut softly, and John and Madame Arnaud tame out together, and passed the window where I stood. I waited. Ten minutes passed. The clock struck eleven slowly, and John passed the window again—this time alone. He let himself in silently; he went back to his study, and for an hour longer I waited. The fire had gone out, the room had grown cold; but my head was hot and throbbing. I threw open t h e window and knelt beside it, welcoming the cold wind Chat swept m* oven welcoming the rain that beat against my burning cheek. After a minute 1 shivered. But even then I did not move. Physical cold seemed to deaden for a minute all the passionate burning tumult of thoughts that were surging through my brain. The wind caught the curtains and made them sway to and fro. Suddenly, as the door was opened, I turned to see John coming in with a firm quick step across the room. He drew down the window sharply before he spoke a word. Then he turned to me, with a quick glance of mingled severity and gentleness. He tried to speak patiently, but there was something of anger in his self-controlled tone. "Do you try to make yourself ill, iCitty?" he asked. I had risen from my knees, and 7 stood leaning against the shutter, mj hands held down before me. I lookec straight at him, all the agony, all the hopelessness of the past two hours shining in my eyes. "I try to die," I said calmly, with th( calmness of the deepest passion. John's eyes expressed a passion a' deep as mine. He was putting a cur! upon his speech; his effort after self restraint was evident. "Why should I wish to live?" ,' asked. "Why? Tell me why." John sighed and made no answer, went on passionately— "If the wind blows upon me a littlfe if the rain touches me, you are sorry. You are not sorry that my heart is breaking. It is breaking all day long —always. And you—you do not care." "Kitty, I think you are mad when you talk like this." I pushed back my hair, which was falling loosely about my forehead, and looked at him with an odd little smiU —a heart-broken half-bitter smile. "I should be happier if I died," ,l said. "And you—could marry Madame Arnaud, John." John's gray eyes flashed a quick, startled, scrutinizing glance at my face. "That Is one of the things, Kitty, that I cannot allow even you to say," he returned at last severely. There was a long silence. It was John who was the first to break it. He spoke slowly, and his tone was heavy as he spoke. *You asked me the other day to let you leave me," he said. "I refused. I was wrong—and you were right. You may go, Kitty. I will not try to keep you with me." I was silent. John turned away, with a tired and heavy sigh. "We will talk" of it tomorrow," he added. "It's too late—we are neither of us calm enough—to talk tonight. But you shall go. I promise." I think I murmured a few Incoherent wo^>ls of thanks as I turned away. I m i g j t go! The privilege seemed an empty boon, indeed. I had no feeling of elation, no feeling of contentment in having won. Life stretched away blankly before me, bereft of every joy, every hope. Even now I cannot recall the long hours of that night with an aching pity for that old self of mine who lay sleepless, tearless the whole night through, and heard the hours strike one by one, and waited in a dull, hopeless, unexpectant way for the dawn to break. The dawn came at last. The sun rose slowly above the house tops—a red orb In a copper-colored sky. I dressed wearily, and turned with a heavy heart to go down stairs. My hand was on the handle ot my door when the door was opened from outside. Meg came in. At the first sight of her face I stepped forward quickly and put my arm around her. Her face was deathly white—white even to the lips. Her lips were tremulous, and yet they were trying in a pathetic way to laugh at herself and at me—at herself for her emotion, and at me for my solicitude. "I ought to faint, Kitty," she said, looking at me with a queer, tremulous little smile. "It would be befitting— and—and romantic, dear." She pushed away the eau de Cologne I had brought her, and gradually the color came back into her cheeks. "You should have told me he was here," she said, after a minute, hall lightly, half reproachfully. "Did you see some one, Meg? Were you startled? A—« friend of John's came last night to stay. I didn't tell you." "Do you know who he was?" she asked. "No. I don't know—John didn't tell me. But he told me that he was coming. I wish you hadn't seen him, Meg He startled you—naturally—when you didn't know that any one was staying here. Would you mind, Meg, not saying to any one that you have seen him?" Meg laughed harshly. "I am not likely to mention it, Kitty," she said drily. "It is' not often, dear, that I boast of that early escapade of mine. When I am an old woman cind very dull I may weave a romance out of those ices and love letter's a&d jam puffs; but I am not old enough just yet. I shan't talk of i t dear; don't fear." "Meg. what do yon mean? Who wai It you saw? Not Arthur St. John?" (To be continued.) T R A N S V A A L WAR I T E M S . Enlistments for the Boer army, it was learned on the H7th, are making some progress in New York, though more men are volunteering in Philadelphia and other places. The recruits are found chiefly among the Irishmen, although Germans and men of other nationalities are also voluntering to fight under the Boer flag. Some doaens of young Irishmen have already left New York for the Transvaal, but the largest recruiting is done in Chicago and other western cities, San Francisco sending her quota. British Ambassador Pauncefote has informed the secretary of state that he has been directed by Premier Salisbury to say that a state of war has existed since Oct. 11 between Britain, the South African republic and the Orange Free State. The notice will probably not materially affect the United States, except to enable the governru^nt to deal vigorously with any persons who attempt to recruit in the United States for either of the parties to the war, Boer or British. Presidents Pruger and, Steyn have instructed (Jens. Joubert and Conje not to split their forces into small detachments, but to strike vigorous blows. Gen. Joubert has three corps, one holding Ladysmith, the second commanding the Tugela, and the third, east of Estcourt, in order to cut off the British retreat. Gen. Cronje's forces are divided into three contingents, one at Kimberley. another at Modder river and the third in the rear of Gen. Methuen. '-The latest returns from the Modder River engagement says that Gen. Methuen, of the British forces, and several other officers were wounded. It is also added that Methuen's wound is slight, being a flesh wound in the thigh. The above report is taken from a London dispatch and it is believed to be greatly modified. The transports Scot, with 33 British officers and 1.0S6 men, and the Bavarian, with 83 officers and 2,810 men arrived at Cape Town on the 28th. Nations Warned by England. Joseph Chamberlain, the secretary of state for the colonies, in a speech at a luncheon at Leicester, Eng,, on the 30th, said that ever since the great split in the liberal party he had found himself a mark for the slanders and misrepresentations of the "baser sort of politicians," but that he had found compensation in the generous appreciation of the majority of his countrymen. Continuing Mr. Chamberlain said he was deeply gratified that the foreign relations of Great Britain were so satisfactory and he asserted that the country owed a debt of gratitude to Lord Salisbury for the great improvement in Great Britain's position. It was espeeially gratifj'ing, ho said, to note the friendly relations existing between the Anglo-Saxon branches, saying that the understanding between the United States and Great Britain was indeed a guarantee of the peace of the world. This statement was greeted with cheers. In speaking of the attitude of foreign nations Mr. Chamberlain said he hoped that the friendly feeling that now existed between the two great branches of the Anglo-Saxon race would continue. For 47 Year* a Baflread Early this fall the m m s g s s i s s t o t the B.>«% 0. R. R. decided that the W»*- formed force should be provided with* service stripes, and on t i e winter matforms each man has one or more gold stripes on his right sleeve if 1» been in the service for five or years. The gold stripe stands for ttre years continuous employment toy tkecompany and a glance over the list develops an interesting and instructivecondition of affairs. The ordinary man, In a peaceful and uneventful vocation, is seldom in continuous service for forty years, yet o n the B. & 0. R. R. there is a bale a n * W. H. GREEN. He has been employed in the B. ft O. for 50 years. hearty old man, with keen, undlmmed eyes, and a springy step that has been in the continuous employ of the com- ! pany for 50 years and is still better than many men half his age. W. H. Green is his name, but everybody on the line calls him "Captain Harry" and he has a record that any man, in any station in life, would be more than proud of. Captain Green Is probably the oldest passenger conductor in the world. If he is not he has the best record, for not once has he been suspended from duty for any cause whatever. And then, too, he has never been Injured. Green was born on September 12, 1827, in Cockeysville, Baltimore county, Md., and entered the B. £ O. service March 3, 1850, as a freight brakeman. He was promoted in two years to freight conductor and in 1S57 was given a passenger train and has served in that capacity ever since. He is now running through trains between Baltimore and Cumberland, Md., and wears ten service stripes on his right arm. For many years B. & O. train e m - ployes have had an enviable reputation for politeness to passengers and attention to duty, and the adoption of the service stripe system will give the traveling public an opportunity to recognize long and faithful service. Division ot Samoa a Islands Kejected. The United States has declined to accept the agreement as to the disposition of the Samoan islands, reached by Great Britain and Germany. It was possib!;,' the leaking out of some information to this effect that gave rise to the report circulated in European capitals recently of the development of a serious hitch in the negotiations. As a mattor of fact, there is no serious hitch. and the reasons which influenced the state department at ^Vashingtou in rejecting the British-German arrangement when it was submitted for approval, related entirely to minor matters, and touched rather upon the form than the substance of the arrangement. Having rejected the tentative treat\T submitted by the other two powers, our government has in turn, and at the instance of the other parties, prepared and submitted a draft of a treaty which it is hoped will be acceptable to all three powers.

F A U L T FINDERS W I T H T H E W O R D OF Q O D . There never was a war in whicn each Bide couldn't prove the other the aggressor. Always purchase umbrellas in dry weather, as they are sure to go up whenever it rains. You may gain knowledge by Teading but you must separate the wheat from the chaff by thinking. Time may be money, but the average man would rather give you a lot of his time than lend you a little of his money. John Bull's press censor and the Paris journalists could never remain contented in the same mutual admiration society. Ambassador Choate thinks the friendship between the United States and England is ironclad. Rather unfortunate comparison. So was the Charleston. A New York society man examined for talesman in the Molineux case said in regard to occupation that he did nothing. He might have added that it tooK him all the time to do it. Vancouver dispatches state that J. J. McArthur, the dominion surveyor, who has had charge of a party making trails in the Yukon country for the past three months, has returned. The special object of his undertaking north was to make trails along the Yukon river, that winter travel to Dawson might be accomplished without the danger and hardships which have hitherto been the invariable attendants of such expeditions. To minimize these Inconveniences McArthur's party cut out 120 miles of trails, while the Yukon and White Pass Railroad Company also constructed about fifty miles of trails. Under these improved conditions, the Rink Rapids, White Horse, Fifty-Mile and Five Fingers can no*v be avoided in the course of a winter's journey to Dawson. A. man in Pennsylvania, who was recently discharged of his debts as a bankrupt, under the law, afterward made application to the judge of the United States District court to have the sheriff restrained from selling his property, saying that at least two thousand dollars more could be realized on it if it were disposed of by trustee's sale. The court asked what difference it made to him, sine? the proceeds from the sale would go to his creditors and not to him. His reply was notable: "My religious feelings Will not permit me to accept my dis-' charge in bankruptcy as releasing me from my moral obligation to pay in full all my debts. If this property is sold for two thousand dollars les3 than It would bring at a trustees sale 1 shall have just that much more to pay." The judge commended the debtor's sense of honor. Reports from the West Indies state that Jamaica has just recovered from what are termed' the seasonal rains, answering to the Indian monsoon. For days the island has been deluged, from thirty to forty inche3 of rain falling in various parts in the course of four days. Many lives have been lost, people being washed away by the torlential gullies and swollen rivers. Dry water courses in a day became raging torrents a mi!P. wide. Bridges have been swept away Jn many places, railway communication is suspended owing to innumerable landslips, the electric tramway system in Kingston has been so badly cut up that It will not run for some time, and the roads have been everywhere torn to pieces by the raging gullies. The seaport town "of Savanna-la^Mar was flooded for days, and communication was only possible by means of canoes. Many coastwise vessels have been wrecked, and several steamers from America were a day or two late in consequence of hurricane weather. The crops, especially, the bananas, which are Jamaica's principal export to the United States, have been everywhere destroyed, and acuu distress is likely to result In some parts of the island for a.time. The heavy rains will, however, prove general}? beneficial. Th« Allayed Uucleaaoou of the Blb1« Only the U D O I W U N A of the Uearta »ud Mluds nt tb« W«wld-I»e !£*• purgator*. In his sermon Sunday Rev. Dr, Talmage deals with a subject that is agitating the entire Christian church at the present moment, viz., "Expurgation of me Scriptures." ^The text chosen was, "Let God be true, but evc-ry man a liar," Romans ili., 4. The Bible needs reconstruction according to some inside and outside the pulpit. It is no surprise that the world bombards the Scriptures, but it is amazing to find Christian ministers picking at this in the Bible and denying that until many good people are left in the fog about what parts of the ; Bible they ought to believe, and what parts reject. The heinousness of finding fault with the Bible at this time is most evident. In our day the Bible is assailed by scurrility, by misrepresentation, by infidel scientists, by all the vice'of eartc and all the venom of perdition, and at this particular time even preachers of the Gospel fall into line of criticism of the word of God. Why, it makes me think of a ship in a September equinox, the waves dashing to the top of the smoke stack, and the hatches fastened down, and many prophesying the foundering of the steamer, and at that time some of the crew with axes and saws go down into the hold of the ship, and they try to saw off some of the planks and pry out some of the timbers because the timber did not com© from the right forost! It does not seem to me a commendable business for the erew to be helping the winds and storms outside with their axes and saws inside. Now, this old Gospel ship, what with the roaring of earth and hell around the stem and stern, and mutiny on deck, is having a very rough voyage,but I have noticed that not one of the timbers has started, and the captain says he will see it through. And I have noticed that keelson and counter-timber-knee are built of Lebanon cedar, and sho is going to weather the gale, but no credit to those who make mutiny on deck. When I see professed Christians in this particular day finding fault with the Scriptures it makes me think of a fortress terrifically bombarded, and the men on the ramparts, instead of swabbing out and loading the guns, and helping fetch up the ammunition from the magazine, are trying with crowbars to pry out from "the wall certain blocks of stone, because they did not come from the right quarry. Oh, men on the ramparts, better fight back, and fight down the common enemy, instead of trying to make breaches in the wall. While I oppose this expurgation of the Scriptures, I shall give you my reasons for such opposition. "What!" say some of the theological evolutionists, whose brains have been addled by too long brooding over them by Darwin and Spencer, "you don't now really believe all the story of the Garden of Eden, do you?" Yes, as much as I believe there were roses in my garden last summer. "But," say thny, "you don't really believe that the sun and moon stood still?" Yes, and if I had strength enough to create a sun and moon I could make them stand still, or cause the retraction of the sun's rays so it would appear to stand still. "But," thfy say, "you don't believe that the whale swallowed Jonah?" Yes, and if I were strong enough to make a whale I could«have made very easy ingress for the refractory prophet, leavi ing to evolution to eject him.if he were an unworthy tenant! "But," say they, "you don't really believe that the water was turned into wine?" Yes, jU3t a3 easily as water now is often turned into wine with an admixture of strychnine and logwood! "But," they say, "you don't really believe that Sampson slew a thousand with the jawbone of an ass?" Yes, and I think that the man who in this day assaults the Bible is wielding the same weapp.nl I. am opposed to the expurgation of the Scriptures in the first,place, because the Bible in its present .shape has been so miraculously preserved. Fifteen- hundred years after Herodotus wrote his-history, there .was only one manuscript copy of it. Twelve hundred- years after Plato wrote 'his book, there was only one manuscript copy of •it. God -was eo careful to have us have the'Bible in ju3t the right shape that we have fifty manuscript copies of the New - Testament a thousand years old, and .jome of th6m fifteen hundred years old. This book, handed down from the time of Christ, or just after the time of Christ, by the hand of such men as Origen in the second century and Tertulllan in the third century, and by men of different ages who died for their principles. The three best copies of the New Testament in manuscript in the possession of the three great churches—the Protestant church of England, the Greek church of St. Petersburg, and the Romish church of Italy. It is a plain matter of history that Tischendorf went to a convent in the peninsula of Sinai and was by ropes lifted over the wall into the convent, that being the only mode of admission, and that he saw there in the waste basket for kindling for the fires, a manuscript of the Holy Scriptures. That night he copied many of the passages of that Bible, but it was not until fifteen years had passed of earnest entreaty and prayer and coaxing and purchase on his part that that copy of the Holy Scriptures was put into the hand of the emperor of Russia—that one copy so marvelously protected. Do you not know that the catalogue of the books of the Old and New Testaments as wo have it, is the same catalogue that has been coming on down through the ages? Thirty-nino books of the Old Testament thousands of years ago. Thirty-nine now. Twenty- seven books of the New Testament sixteen hundred years ago. Twentyseven books of tho New Testament now. Marcion, for wickedness, was turned out of the church in the second century, and in his assault on the Bible and Christianity he incidentally gives a catalogue of the books of the Bible—that catalogue corresponding exactly with ours—testimony given by the enemy of the Bible and the enemy of Christianity. The catalogue is now just like the catalogue then. Assaulted and spit on and torn to pieces and burned, yet adhering. The book today, in three hundred languages, confronting four-fifths of the human race in their own tongue. Four hundred million copies of it in existence, uoes not that look as if this book had been divinely protected, as if God had guarded it all through the centuries? Nearly all the other old books are mumifled and are lying in the tombs of old libraries, and perhaps once in 20 years some man comes along and picks up one of them and blows the dust off, and opens it, and finds it the book he does not want. But this old book.much of it forty centuries old, stands today more discussed than any other book, and it challenges the admiration of all the good and the spite and the venom and the animosity and the hyper-criticism of earth and hell. I appeal to your common sense.if a book so divinely guarded and protected in its present shape, must not be in just the way that God wants it to come to us, and if it pleases God, ought it not to please us? Not only have all the attempts to detract from the book failed, but all the attempts to add to it. Many attempts were made to add the apochryphal books to the Old Testament. The Council of Trent, the Synod of Jerusalem, the bishops of Hippo, all decided that the apochryphal books must be added to the Old Testament. "They must stay in," said those learned men; but they stayed out. There is not an intelligent Christian man that today will put the Book of Maccabees or the Book of Judith beside the Book of Isaiah or Romans. Then a great many said: "We must have books added to the New Testament," and there were epistles and gospels and apocalypses written and added to the New Testament, but they have all fallen out. You cannot add anything. You cannot subtract anything to the divinely protected book in the present shape. Let no man dare to lay his hands on it with the intention of detracting from the book, or casting out any of these holy pa^es. I am also opposed to this proposed expurgation of the Scriptures for the fact that in proportion as people become self-sacrificing arid good and holy and consecrated, they like the book as it is. I have yet to find a man or a woman distinguished for self-sacrifice, for consecration to God, for holiness of life, who wants the Bible changed. Many of us have inherited family Bibles. Those Bibles were in use twenty, forty, fifty, perhaps a hundred years in the generation. Today._take— down, these family Bibles, and find out if there are any chapters which have been erased by lead pencil or pen, and if in any margins you can find the words, "This chapter not fit to read." There has been plenty of opportunity during the last half century privately to expurgate tho Bible. Do you know Eny case of such expurgation? Did not.your grandfather give u to your fatner, and did not your father give it to you? Beside that, I am opposed to the expurgation of the Scriptures because the so-called indelicacies and cruelties of the Bible have demonstrated no evil result. A cruel book will produce cruelty—an unclean book will produce uncleanness. Fetch me a victim. Out of all Christendom and out of all the ages, fetch me a victim whose heart has been hardened to cruelty, or whose life has been made impure by this book. Show me one. One of the best families I ever knew, for thirty or forty years, morning and evening, had all the members gathered together.aad the servants of the household, and the strangers that happened' to be within the gates—twice a day, and without leaving out a chapter or a verge, they read thi3 holy book, morning by morning, night by night Not only the elder children, but the Uttle child who could juat Bpell her way through the verse while her mother helped her. The father beginning and reading one verse, then all the members of the family in turn reading a verse. The father maintained his integrity, the mother maintained her integrity, the sons grew up and entered professions and commercial life, adorning every sphere in the life in which they lived, and the daughters went into families where Christ was honored, and all that was good and pure and righteous reigned perpetually. For thirty years that family endured the Scriptures. Not one of them ruined by them. Now, if you will tell me of a family where the Bible has been read twice a day for thirty years, and the children have been brought up in that habit, and the father went to ruin, and tho mother went to ruin, and the sons and daughters were destroyed by it—if you will tell me of one such incident, 1 wnl throw away my Bible, or I will doubt your veracity. I tell you, if a man ij shocked with what he calls the indelicacies of the Word of God, he is prurient in his taste and imagination. If a man cannot, read Solomon's Song, without impure suggestion, he is either in his heart or in his life, a libertine. The Old Testament description of wickedness, uncleanness of all sorts, is purposely and righteously a disgusting account, instead of the Byronic and the Parisian vernacular which make3 sin attractive instead of appalling. Wnen .these old prophets point you to a lazaretto you understand it is a lazaretto. When a man having begun to do right fall3 back into wickedness and gives up his integrity, the Bible does not say he was overcome by the fascinations of the festive board, or that he surrendered to convivialities, or that he became a little fast in his habits. I will tell you what the Bible says: "The dog is turned to his own vomit again, and tho sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire." No gilding of iniquity. No garlands on a death's-head. No pounding away with a silver mallet at iniquity when it needs an iron sledge hammer. I can easily understand how people, brooding over the description of uncleanness in the Bible, may get morbid in mind until they are as full of it as the wing-3 and beak and the nostril and the claw of a buzzard are full of the odors of a carcass; but what is wanted is not that the Bible be disinfected, but that you, the critic, have your mind and heart washed with carbolic acid! I tell you at this point in my discourse that a man who does not like this book and who is critical as to its contents, and who is shocked and outraged with its descriptions, has never been soundly converted. Tho laying on of the hands of Presbytery or Episcopacy does not always change a man's heart, and men sometimes get into the pulpit as well as into the pew, never having been changed radically by the sovereign grace of God. Get your heart right and the Bible will be right. The trouble is men's natures are not brought into harmony with the. Word of God. Ah! my friends, expurgation of the heart 13 what i3 wanted. You cannot make me believe that the Scriptures, which this moment lie on i the table of the purest and best men and women of the ago, and which wero the dying solace o( your kindred passed ! into the skies, have in them a taint which the strongest microscope of honest criticism could make visible. If mer. are uncontrollable in their indig- ; nation when the integrity of wife or child is assailed, and judges and jurors as far as possible excuse violence under such provocation, what ought to be the overwhelming and long resounding thunders of condemnation for any man who will stand in a Christian pulpit I and assail the more than virgin purity of inspiration, the well beloved daughtarofGod? Expurgate the Bible! You might as we'll go to the old picture galleries in Dresden and in Venice and in Rome and expurgate the old paintings. Perhaps you could find a foot of Michael Angelo's "Last Judgment" that might be improved. Perhaps you could throw more expression into Raphael's "Madonna." Perhaps you could put more pathos in Rubens* "Descent from the Cross." Perhaps you could change the •crests of the waves in Turner's "Slave Ship." Perhaps you might go into the , old galleries of sculpture and change the forms and the posture of the atat- I ues of Phidias and Praxiteles. Such an iconoclast would very soon find himself I in tho penitentiary. But it is worse ! vandalism when a man proposes to refashion these masterpieces of inspiration, and to remodel the moral giants of this gallery of God. PPMftte MoitomKy.

H I .' - * HOT A OLE SILVER A N N I V E R S A R Y -With the close M toe present year Mr. David C. Cook, ot,Chicago, will cele$> rate his firsNjguarter-eentennial as. editor and publisher of Sunday-school literature. Starting t^anty*five years ago, without reputation oz assurance of support, he has become one of the moat widely and favorably knowo publishers in this line. Beglnni^gW 1*7* with two small publications, his periodicals. have grown-in- Biiatber and favor until there are few schools in this country that do not find it to their interest to nee some of hie pure and helpful publications, while many in distant landspay tribute :ffi their merits,. The past quarter of a century h,a3 witnessed. njany changes among Sunday -school publishers^ anfo much Ifess tfme than. tiis, has. sufficed for some to outliv& their usefulness. On the contrary, Mr, Cook is preparing to eelVbraio the beginning of another quarter-century with additional improvements and new publications. Among those may bn mentioned The New Century Sunday- School Teacher's Monthly, a large and thoroughly inp-to-date magazine'tor superintendents and teachers, the first issue of which will apyear in Dc-ember. Among the most remarkable of his publications \s the Young People** Weekly, which haa attained a circulation of nearly a quarter of a million, being a successful attempt to1 furnish a high grade of religious story reading for boys and girls. To avoid the "goody-goody" story of the Sunday school, such ns we remember, in our childhood days, and furnish something natural, interesting and ennobling, haa been its aim, and we are not at all surprised at it3 popularity. The restraining influence of the Christian home and the 3unday school on our growing community of young people, some of us may not appreciate as we should—pernaps because these sometimes fail to restrain. This paper should be a most welcome accessory lu this work, and one which all should appreciate. Boys and girls will read,, and the story booh and paper are the;:' first choice. There seems a plentiful supply of religious papers for older people, but this is the tirst successful attempt to furnish a uon-se^tanan religious story paper for young people. The paper is profusely illustrated, beautifully printed, and contains as much or more reading matter than the most expensive of secular youu;? peo* pie's story papers. The price, 75 cents per year, should bring it within the reach of every home. Mr. Cook is now making a special effort to give the paper a wider circulation, and, all who Bend 75 cents for a year's subscription befSrk Jan. 1 wilf receive a beautiful premium picture entitled "The Soul's Awakening." It is exactly the same size (ioxlS inches) and style as thosa on sale at art stores for $1. Orders ehould be addressed to David C. Cook Publishing com'pany, UG Washington street, Chicago. Probably no man living has done so much to improve and cheapen Sundayschool literature as has Mr.. David C. Cook. Through his aid thousands of schools have been encouraged, improved and made self-sustaining. vMr. Cook is yet a comparatively young man, and it does not appear a-t all improbable that bis field of usefulness mav'extend over yet "another quarter* century.

C O N <". I I M I ' T l O N EFFECT OF A WHITE LIE. •'I don't believe you'd tell a fib to save your life, Henry." This Temark caused a general laugh from the little crowd of students gathered to plan their Jokes for the coming holidays. Henry Harris was recognized by all who knew him as a fellow who detested the most trifling falsehood. His friends always jeered him when he refused joining in some practical joke comprising the sacrifice of truth. "You have often laughed at me," said Henry quietly, "but the sharpest pain the tmth ever cost me is as nothing compared to the life's sorrow and regret caused by my last falsehood. If you care to listen I will tell you the story of one lie and its effects." "All right, old fellow; let's have it," replied bis fellow-students in a chorus. Henry Harris leaned back in his chair and began his story. "When I was a boy of 12 there came to our village a young man in ill health, who soon became a sincere friend of my father's and frequently visited our home. "This invalid, whose name was Alfred Payson, confided his life's story to my father. It was a tale that is met with only too often. "Alfred had been a wild and reckless youth, thereby arousing his father's anger, and just six years before the two had parted, each vowing never to look upon the other's face. For those six years Alfred's proud spirit had refused to seek the reconciliation that a word from him might have brought about. "One day there came to him a sense of his sin against his father, to whom he had been as dead for so long. Seized with a sudden feeling of forgiveness he wrote a letter to that father, imploring his pardon and asking for one word with him before he'd die. "The letter was given to me to post by my father one noon as I arose from my dinner. " 'It will go off sooner if you post it in town,' said he. 'Be sure you don't forget it, my boy." " 'All right, father,' I answered, thrusting the letter into the pocket of my baseball trousers. "Upon reaching the town I found that I was already five minutes late for the game, and resolving that it would be time enough to post the letter afterward put it in my pocket again and hastened to the field. "After witnessing an exciting game I started homeward without one thought of the unposted letter in my ppeket, and there it lay forgotten through all the following week. "Alfred Payson grew weaker each day and w?r, no longer equal to the shortest journey, but when the day was bright and warm he would sit under HE WOULD EAGERLY WATCH FOR THE POSTMAN. the shade of the chestnut tree on the little lawn at Woodbine Cottage. "He would eagerly watch the postman coming down the lane, and what a disappointed shadow used to cross his face when told there was no letter for him. "One evening I was called Into my father's study and asked If I had posted the letter he gave me. " 'What letter, father?' I stammered, as a recollection of my duty omitted flashed across me. " 'The one I gave you a week ago,' answered my father sharply. 'Did you post it as I bade you?' " 'Yes, father/ I answered falteringly. "The moment the lie had escaped my lips I would have given worlds to recall it, but the next I yielded to my foolish cowardice and verified it by another. " 'You are certain, Henry?' added my father, looking searchingly at me, and I replied unhesitatingly: "'Quite certain, father.' ''All right, my boy,' he answered kindly. 'I don't doubt your word, but I thought you might have forgotten it, and it was an important letter.' "0, what a miserable, guilty boy I felt as I crept into bed that night. I resolved to post the letter the first thing l a the morning, but then I thought this would; entail l b * discovery iof my falsehood, for-the date of the postmark would be enough to explain the cause of its delay. "Anxious and unhappy I carried the Jotter la my pocket all day. Tbe possession of it made me miserable, yet I had noc the moral courage to do what I tfnew to be right—namely: go to my father aad confess all. "I had half made up my mind to do this, when, wandering down the garden, walk one evening, I was seized with a sudden temptation. The gardener had been burning rubbish all day. and the heap was still blazing brightly. "Without a thought of its contents, I threw the letter in the midst of the burning rubbish. In a moment the words that might have brought to a dying son a father's loving forgiveness were destroyed forever. "Not many days longer did Alfred Payson listen longingly for the old postman's footsteps in the lane. The angel of death was hovering near the little rose-covered cottage. "One bright June morning the news came to us that Alfred was dying. My father lost no time in sending a telegram to the young man's father summoning him to the bedside of his dying son. "By the next train the old man came at last with the words of love and pardon for which his boy had craved! "But too late! Alfred Payson had passed forever beyond the reach of earthly forgiveness. "Need I add that the letter which in my wicked cowardice I had destroyed had been a nlea from that dying son for the reconciliation that, but for the falsehood I uttered, should have brightened his last hours on earth? "Do you wonder that the memory of my life's Morrow and regret has taught me a less.m never to be forgstten?"— Boston Pest. A 3 S O L U T E PROOF. l i e Assured t b e Children T h a t t h e Story •\Tas True. Several years ago, in a certain town north, a gentleman possessed of more money than education was asked to address the scholars attending one of the local schools some- Sunday afternoon, saya Spare Moments. The day arrived and our friend was called upon. "Well, children," said he, "I's not used to public speyking, but I remember when I was a lad I was very fond of hearing a story. Shall I tell a story?" The children assenting, he proceeded: "Once upon a time, many^ years ago, there was a lad, a very good lad, who went regularly to Sunday school, and nivver missed. But one Sunday afternoon, Gs he was gawin' to school, two bad boys met him and persuaded him to gan birdnesting wiv 'cm. So they went lasg by the river side, and 'by-and-by they came tiv a tree, and in the tree, on a branch which overhung the wetter, was a nest. The two bad boys sent the good lad to climb the tree and fetch the eggs. Up he went and got out on the branch, farther and farther, and just as he was reachin' out his hand to tak' the nest the branch brok' and he fell into the river and was drooned." After waiting a few moments to allow his hearers to thoroughly grasp the full extent of the catastrophe, he resumed with: "Children, the story is true, for the lad that was drooned was me!" O r g a n i s t T a k e n for a n E n g l i s h Spy. Sir George Martin is nominally the dignified and gray-haired- organist of St. Paul's cathedral in London. Several weeks ago he went out to South Africa to conduct some musical examinations in Cape Town. His work over, ho determined to run up into the country to see a bit of the Transvaal. During his trip the talk of war became violent, and the wary Boers got an idea into their heads that Sir George Martin was a British spy masquerading as a musician. They put detectives on the trail, and anally detained him for some days in Pretoria to await developments. Finally, just before President Kruger"s ultimatum was made public, the authorities gave him hi3 liberty. Sir George took advantage of the opportunity, and has just arrived in London, overjoyed at his good fortune at getting away so easily. Good f o r I m o m n l a .

Seven vessels totally destroyed, 20 more ashore or damaged and 11 Uve3 known to have been lost is the record to date of lake disasters due to the big storm. The list of lives lost will undoubtedly be swelled, as little hope Is entertained for Hie big steel trust barge Madeira, with her crew of nine men. It is about conceded that the boat foundered off Two; Harbors. Nothing more has been heard of the Cn men: comprising the crew of the au)w George Herbert, which sank in Lake Superior. If the crews of these two boats perished, the number of dead would be 25. There is still no news of the big steel steamer Angeline, which has not been heard from since she left Ashland before the storm- There is still a strong possibility that she is sheltered somewhere, but fear that she is lost is growing. Many more vessels are still overdue, but some of them are very likely among a fleet sheltered at Whiteftsh Point. The financial loss la reaching enormous proportions, the steel trust alone losing nearly $1,- 600,000 on Its s i s wrecked boats. The story of suffering and death may never be fully told.

Pour more wrecks, a stranding and more missing vessels, are the latest returns from the big storm which swept Lakes Superior and Huron the forepart of last week. The storm has created general havoc in the steel trust fleet, having wrecked or disabled ten trust boats. The wrecking of the steel trust steamer Coralin and barge Maia, and to cap the climax, the stranding ofr the fleet's crack freighter, the Willlam E. Corey, are reported. One hundred and sixty-eight lives have been sacrificed, over 70 ships wrecked and a loss of nearly $7,000,- 000 has been sustained in three big storms on the great lakes this season. That this is the most disastrous season in the history of shipping on the lakes is beyond doubt. Vessels of all types, from the mighty modern steel freighters to the ancient wooden schooners and old-time steamers, have been swept from the lakes by the terrific gales. A list of the wrecks in which lives were lost is as follows: Ira uwen 18 M I L K CAJJST O N BABY.

John Stewart and the crew of Contrary^ HumanTNature. An amusing—bit of. human nature { comes to light in Paris. The management of the underground railway until recently provided at every station a small box in an out-of-the-way corner for passengers to deposit their tickets in. As a natural result of this system, only one ticket in ten was deposited in the box; the rest fluttered about at will all over the station. The authoritlts noted this, and changed the small Inaccessible box for a large one in a prominent position. The surprising sequel was that instead of one in ten, only one in a hundred tickets found its way into the new box. The easier it was to deposit the tickets the more careless were the passengers in disposing of them. Culprit VWs Superstitious.

A lady who was once a victim of the "coffee heart" writes from Oregon: "I have been a habitual user of coffee all my life and have suffered very much in recent years from ailments which I became satisfied were directly due to the poison in the beverage, such as torpid liver and indigestion, which in turn made my complexion blotchy and muddy. "Then my heart became affected. It would beat most rapidly just after I drank my coffee, and go below normal as the coffee effect wore off. Sometimes ray pulse would gc as high as 137 beats to the minute. My family were greatly alarmed at my condition and at last mother persuaded me to begin the use of Postum Food Coffee. "I gave up the old coffee entirely and absolutely, and made Postum my sole table beverage. This was six months ago, and all my ills, the indigestion, Inactive liver and rickety heart action, have passed away, and my complexion has become clear and natural. The improvement set in very soon after I made the change, just as soon as the coffee poison had time to-work out of my system.

Thorough rest does not necessarily mean lying down or sitting; it means to relax the entire system, the mind and body. For a tired brain physical exercise Is the best remedy rather than a resort to drugs. If a brisk walk in the fresh air can be taken, so much the better. A very good remedy for a weary brain is to rise slowly on the toes (lifting the heels from the floor) until the muscles at the calf of the leg ache, and then to kick vigorously a few times. Repeat this simple exercise several times and excellent res u l t s w i l l follow.

For three years I had attacks affecting the joints of my ankles, knees and elbows. My aukles and knees became so swollen I conld scarcely walk ou nueveu ground and a little pressure from a stone under ray feet would cause ine so much pain that I would nearly siuk down. I was often obliged to lie in bed for several days at a time. My friends who were similarly troubled were getting no relief from doctors and I did not feel encouraged j o throw niouyf away for nothing.

DIET FOR FEVERS. DilvteeV Mttlc la t h e Safest K i n d of F o o d t o B m p l o y . During the first few days of any run of fever there should be no attempt made to give food, for, as neither gastric nor1 pancreatic juices are secreted, the stomach cannot digest food and it putrefies. After the saliva and other secretions have been restored food should be given that is easiest to digest. Milk, which contains all the food principles, is known as the special diet for fevers of any sort. Diluted milk Is easier of digestion than the pure milk, which curdles almost as soon as it enters the stomach. One part of limewater tu one of milk la a good proportion. Milk and mineral water Is also excellent. Fill a glass half full of milk and then fill up with the mineral water. A little salt increases its* pttlatabilfty.

The 8ltnatlon-at Sebastopol-aad Cronstadt is enveloped in deep mystery and reports aresteadily, coming in from various sources of the spread of the disaffection among the troops at all points and the anger of the people in general at the threat of the government to mobilize another half million Cossacks for general service.

Bending to take up some book he picked up the new spectacles at the same time, and adjusted them to read. Then up went the second pair to join company with the first pair above the massive forehead. The wag, grinning over the success nf his trick, borrowed another pair of spectacles and placedjthem before the great orator, who was too much excited to notice. In due time he had occasion to read again, and seized the spectacles before him. As a matter of course, the third pair shared the same fate as the two preceding, and Webster was astonished to find everybody's face wearing a broad smile, and especially the face of the man whose arguments he was answering. 'The sentleman may smile and smile.'' Mr. WebBter roared out, shaking his head angrily and pointing a finger at his opponent, "but he pnly makes of himself a,spectacle for the derision of his countrymen" At the same time the three pairs of spectacles feH upon the orator's desk, and there was a general roar of merrJment.— London Answers. ^ ^ alphabet block and patent it and leave some sort of legacy for his heirs.

I know that it was he who sent the potsoned ring in my name to her. I saw a notice of her death in a newspaper which, no doubt, he sent to me. But there was nothing concerning the suspicions regarding the cause, and. indeed, I do not think they awoke until Bruce began his investigations in the claimant case. I had long ceased to love Lenora though I appreciated her slngle-heartbfflce after rejecting my proposal to give him a better Job in another mill I warned him to keep off my premises. My premises, and; he the true ownerf Marks waa keener than I, and, I think, mistrusted JAm from the /first. But be eaid nothing to me about it. It was his hand that fired the shot at Primus Edes, as he was called. Of that I am firmly convinced, though T did not see him about Grovedale. I think he conceived the scheme of removing Lenora and Vane from my path, and then of holding It over me afterwards as the means of getting large sums of money.from me, which he reasoned .1 would pay rather than suffer the matter to become known. But I never even mistrusted it until Vane recovered his reason and brought suit against* me. Then love, jealousy, fear, and the old instinct to pit my faculties against the world arose within me. There seemed no other course open than to oppose the suit, and everything seemed in my favor. This was at the outset. But as the days went on, and I saw the anguish of Constance, the dejection of Vane, a great, shuddering pity for them both, and horror for myself, awoke in my soul.

But slowly up from under all this anguish of, mind there grew up a firm resolve which comforted me,—comforted while it made me wretched. I determined to let matters take their course, play my part to the end, and 'vhen that end should come, which I Conclusion The husband and wife read the confession together after he had been released and returned to his own home, and a great pity took possession pf his soul for his unfortunate brother "He had great Innate nobleness," said Constance, "or he would not have given up everything when he might have kept It." "Yes. that proves It," said her husband; "but for this I might still be in confinement and awaiting trial on charge of murder; but I. owe It to your faithfulness, my wife, first of all." The Hamlltons continued to reside in Grovedale, the children grew to be a tall youth and maid, and great comforts to their parents, and they were taught to feel pity, rather than detesatldn, for the wicked." After two or three years passed away, a large box of fruit reached them trom California, and they felt sure the sender must be Victor. In five years came a check for one thousand dollars. It was signed "Charles Rogers," but they were sure it came from him also, particularly as others followed from time to time. They wrote to Charles Rogers, but receiveing no reply fancied that he did not dare answer, and so they would not write again.

But I aaW nothing about it to Marks, yltfc w&osn and all my evil associates I determined to break; for, strange as It may appear, I fully decided to begin a new upright life, to be in reality what Vane had been. I would persuade Constance-to marry me on the plea of beginning a new life together, and then I decided to be so kind, so good and true, that she would never mistrust I was not the real Vane Hamilton. The good, pure moral atmosphere of Grovedale seemed to1 have uplifted my soul to better things than I had ever known. I began to- see that honor really existed, that there were true hearts in the world. Little Clare would kneel beside me when she .fntyed, and sometimes I prayed Wijfch her, in my. heart, and tMfcied I waa struggling to free itself of the terrible tolls of sins; but : how could I t h i n k l h a t forgiveness was mlne^^or that -it could come to mTlnrtne^mldst of the wicked deceit of my daily life!

Vane was arrested, and I remained free. That was as I expected, but I lingered a few days on the scene of my quiet, happy, yes, happy life, for it seemed hard to cut myself off from it all. I do not mean to preach, but I want to say that good people know little about what they condemn so rapidly; they know little and seem to care little about the lives of the poor creatures bftenest found in their courts of justice. I have thought of this much in the past week, and i have wondered what my life would have been if I had not been taken from my parents, but al lowed to grow up in the midst of good influences; arid I have been, probably, as good a man as my twin brother, and perhaps it is not too much to say that he might have been like me with the same environment. 1 go away, an<t I go a thief, a criminal In the eyes of the law.

"After a time the matter was dropped and we wondered at it. Long afterwards the reason was known to a few. Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton read the accounts likewise, and immediately started for California. They went to the governor and laid before him the whole story of his life, temptations, and struggles. Vane pleaded and Constance pleaded, and both were made eloquent by their great sympathy and emotions. The governor fortunately was-a man of heart as well as of jtfstice and discernment. Perhaps, too, the grace and beauty -of'Constance touched him, for he^was a gallant man. t all events, after some delay and no little consideration, a full pardon was granted Victor Hamilton, and thenceforth he was free to travel as he would, and without fear. It was not I.iiu.vn for a long time that it was Solomon Marks who denounced him. because his demands of "hush money" were disregarded,—not until the_aj> Brief Sessions. The fifty-ninth congress began its first session on Monday, two members of the senate being absent for cause— MitchelL of Oregon, and Burton, of Kansas—the black sheep of the assemblage.

Both houses soon adjourned out of respect to those who have died during the year. Among the Important measures com* ing up for consideration will be those regulating freight and passenger railroad rates; giving federal supervision over Insurance companies; providing the form of government fo^the canal zone and pertaining to the construction of the waterway; lower duties on Imports from the Philippines; providing some form of American citizenship for the residents of Porto Rico; restricting objectionable immigration; renewal of the Chinese exclusion laws; a ship subsidy for American vessels; determining a course to be pursued in Santo Domingo, and adjusting further differences with Cuba.

"You have spoiled me for any other woman;" but his head was uplifted and he breathed a full breath at thinking he had been able to give up his chance of winning her when in his own hands was held his brother's fate. .

"When will you send for me to keep house for you?" asked Clare, dancing out into the sunshine before him. "Next year; and when the conquering hero follows—as no doubt he will in a week—we will have a grand wedding at the ranch. How does that strike you, missy?" Clare blushed a little, for the conquering hero was not a myth, and the wedding actually took place last summer at the ranch as her uncle proposed. Her parents and brother were present, and the ring used at the cere mony was the one left in trust by the sorrowing mother years before, and whose spirit must have been present to bless them all.

The Santo Domingo treaty will be rati fled if the reports of Prof. Hollander satisfy * the senate that President Roosevelt was justified in adopting the course he is now pursuing. A ship subsidy bill cannot pass, as the treasury is threatened with a serious deficit and revenues are too low for such a measure to be successful. Citizenship will probably not be given the Porto Ricans, as a majority believe they are not yet fitted for such an honor, Chinese exclusion will be renewed in some form. The Isthmian canaPwill play an important part in the session's work. Hon. Charles E. Townsead. of Michigan, has about completed bis bill for the regulation of railroad rates and will introduce it at once. He says: "In my bill I shall endeavor to follow the desires of the president and accomplish what I believe he will ask congress to accomplish. I dont know, but J think the president in his message will cover three cardinal points upon which legislation la necessary to correct evils from which the country is suffering. I think he will recommend the abolition of what are""krf©wn as *midnight rates.' By that term J mean those rates nrar ^ • ! *=f> e=f FUNNY BUT NATURAL M f S T A K * Arjltt Was Net ffamUkr With JUflfT of tlie S M . Dr. B. B. Norland of Wheatlwy, Minn., is said to hold that moseattoet bring about marriages, th4 fame mosquito, in the summer time, biting a young man and a maid, and thus causing a transition of blood and a mutual affection. "I did say that mosquitoes caused marriages," admitted Dr. Norland the other day; '*bnt tbe statement was a facf tlous one. To take It seriously is a mistake—a ludicrous mistake, like that which Black, the artist made. "Black lived near here. He was a handsome chap, but poor. He feH in love with Nancy Lee, a rich sea, captain's daughter. "And his suit prospered, though fee pressed It very timidly, fearing that rich old Skipper Lee would not care to see bis darling Nancy marry a poverty-stricken artist "As to Nancy's mind, there was no question; she loved Black ardently. "He sat with her one night In the parlor, with the light lowered, when suddemY, -front-tbe-aeat room, Caofc- Lee's gruff voice shouted: "'Leggo that painter!' "Poor, timid, mistaken Black drew away from the girl, grabbed his hat, and darted out into the road; but Nancy, overtaking him. explained that her father was talking in his sleep, and that a painter, In sea language, meant only a small rope." tbat are made tempdiarily by a road to serve a certain purpose and are then Senator Alger's Story. Senator Alger of Michigan tells a story about a "call-down" one of his friends received at the hands of a Kansas farmer some years ago. The senator was speeding through Kansas on a. return trip from California, where he has immense timberlnterests. Seated with him waa a friend from Michigan, and as they passed through Kansas a prosperous farmer came into the car and took a~seat~jusr opposite them. The senator and his friend were aiscussing the relative value of Michigan and Kansas lands when the for* mer said: "I think that is a mighty' good farm," and he pointed out the window at a typical Sunflower plantation. "It may be good enough," said Senator Alger's friend, "but r wouldn't take ft as. a gift" The Kansas farmer, who had been listening to the conversation, said, addressing Alger's companion: "Did I understand you to say you are from Michigan?'" "Yes, from Michigan.** replied the Wolverine traveler. "Well, I want to remark," replied the farmer, who had been stiing by the alight on Kansas, "that you are the first Michigan man I ever saw who wouldn't take everything in sight, gift or no gift** t l Illogical. Simkins-^Chatterton is a great fellow to argue, isn't he? Timkins—Oh, I don't know. Q» aboiisned. under the~~present law rail roads* must give 10 days' notice of _an increase in rates and three days' notice of a reduction of rates. If a big shipper tells a railroad he will have 500 cars of freight at a certain point at a certain' time, the railroad gives three days' notice of reduction, a notice nobody hears of but the shipper. When the 500 cars have been shipped, notice is at once published and the rate put back where it was before. These 'mid night rates' must be made impossible. "Then I think the president will ask for ample publicity so that all may know what the railroads are doing. He will ask tbat the government have access to books of all railroads, just as to those of national banks, and that no books be kept by railroads save such as the government may prescribe. Thus we will have uniformity all over the country and information taken from railroad books will be intelligible to all. "And, lastly, I believe* the peesident will ask congress to empower the in terstate commerce commission to fix reasonable rates wherever unreasonable rates are found in force. This last I consider very important. The Foraker bill, for instance, provides that courts shall fix reasonable rates whenever a railroad is convicted of maintaining un reasonable rates. That plan I hold utterly impracticable and futile. "Courts have repeatedly held that they cannot llx rates, that rate fixing is a legislative function and not a judicial one. Hence, a shipper with a complaint would be obliged to fight his case through the courts, taking him probably several years, and if he won, and, the railroad was,ordered to reduce the rate, it would simply reduce it one cent and make the shipper go through all courts again. "Rate fixing is a legislative function which can be delegated to the interstate commerce commission as an administrative act to be performed." Facts and Proof. Hulett, Wyo., Dec. 4th (Special*— An ounce of fact is worth a ton. of theory and it is evidence foundsd on facts that backs up every box of Dodd's Kidney Pills. The evidence of people who know what they do. Mrs. May Taber, highly esteemed resident of Hulett, says: "I know Dodd's Kidney Pills are a valuable medicine because I have used them. I took seven boxes and they cured mo of a severe attack of Kidney Trouble. They relieved me from the first dose, and when I had finished the last box I had no pain and my Kidneys are now acting properly." Dodd's Kidney Pills are now recognized all over the world as the greatest Kidney Remedy science has ever produced. They cure Rheumatism, Dropsy, Gout, Lumbago, Diabetes, Urinary and Bladder Troubles Bright's Disease, and all disorders arising from any form of Kidney Disease. Dr. Hcssel Postma, late of Amsterdam, Holland, is courting his sweetheart, Miss Laura May Love, of Toledo, through an interpreter. Miss Love met Herr Postma in Amsterdam last year, and has accepted him, but is unable to get her tongue' around the Dutch language, although she sneaks French, German, Spanish and English fluently. A Demonstration. The superintendent of a factory went into the storehouse one day and saw the storekeeper tugging at a big case of goods. His face was red and the muscles of his neck^were bulging out. "Hold on there, Jack," cried the su« perintendent. "allow me to demonstrate to you the power of brain over muscle." He grabbed a hook that was on a shelf and stuck It in the case, gave a quick jerk and toppled over Into a pile of rubbish. He got up. looked at the storekeeper, and said: "Blame it, the handle was loose." "Yes. sir," replied Jack, "that's why I didn't use it!" Lavish Gifts of the Mortons. Former Vice President Levi P.

At its head ia Rev. Frank W. Sandford, one ot the most remarkable religious leaders in the world. The colonists are called 'The Saints, or the Holy Ghost and Us." The leader is called Elijah the Sec- Snd. To his followers he is the direct bpresentative of God on earth; to his detractors he is a hypnotist; to the casually interested, a tanatlc Always more or less in the world's eye through the adventures and oilsadventures of its energetic leader and his disciples, who rove the seas and carry the "word of God to all countries of the earth," the Holy Ghosters esteem to have come to the zenith of their notoriety. The yacht Coronet, one of a ileet of several craft belonging to the colony, arrived at Portland recently, battered and sea-fouled, her topmasts gone, her sails torn to ribbons, and her woris-eaten hull riddled with the borings of the dread teredo worm of the tropics, leaking 1,000 strokes an hour. On board were Sandi'ord, his family, and fifty other members of the Holy Ghost sect, most oi them living skeletons from the ravages of scurvy and weakened to the point of exhaustion from many days' work at the pumps. Soon after their arrival three men were sent to the hospital by port officials. Sandford hiim-ielf was arrested on a civil suit brought by a woman, who claimed that she had been Illegally detained Pvo years previously when she wanted to leave the Holy Ghost barkentino Kingdom, and after the Holy Ghost leader had given $10,000 bail on this charge he was soon after arrested again by the Federal authorities, charged with being responsible for the death of one of his flock who had been buried at sea, and for the illness of the others, both charges being based on the fact that he had kept them at sea in a boat improperly provisioned when he might have made port. It was fifteen years ago, in one of t h e q u a i n t e s t and cm letest Quaker communities of Maine, lor the inhabitants of Durham, outside of Shiloh, are largely Quakers, that He v. Frank W. Sandford and his "Saints of the Holy Ghost and Us" crusade established the headquarters of their remarkable creed and started the erection of their Temple. When the first spadeful of earth was turned Sandford's sole capita] and equipment was three cents, a wheelbarrow, and a shovel. John Henry Douglass, whoso name is now immortallzed amongst--8hiiohttes, gave the land of his home farm for the site. Other farmers became converted by the young leader, then only eleven years out of college. They gave their time, tholr labor and their land, and, finally, themselves to "the movement," as the Shilohltes speak of their work. 8EQUENCE OF WORK HELPS IN GETTING MEALS. Though fanatical, an extremist in | nlcality of clearing at every port, as f ••:•• l ^ < • » * - • * •to m :/ •••• > f ^ R . ; . Slowly a~great" white Temple, tne wings serving the purpose or a dor- j mitory, was erected, a four-story brick hospital was added,•" and several cottages sprang up. Sandford's original three cents, invested in the "bank of God," as the Holy Ghoeters would say, bore heavy interest, and now an outlay of ¢200,- 000 or more Is represented in the buildings on "the hill top'; The way in which money has at times poured into tho coffers of the Shilohltes has astounded the curious outside world. Sandford's method of securing funds is to pray. He declares that God has never yet failed him with money when it was needed. "The Saints'of Shiloh" say that God himself ordered the erection of this Temple and selected its site; that he furnished the money with which to build; that each successive stage of construction has been marked by a miracle in order that It might be shown that Ood was directing; that is to say, when it seemed, time after time, that money and material were nowhere to be had, when it appeared that the work had stopped for good, supplies were promptly furnished through supernatural agencies. The Saints also assert that Shiloh hai been commended from on high in many other ways. They claim t h a t one person, Mrs. Olive Mills, died in the Temple and was afterward raised from the dead through the agency of Chief Evangelist Sandford; that hundreds of persons have been healed in Sbtlob's hospital "Bethesda" of all manner of bodily infirmities; that have been cast out by the that, in short, every miracle >rded In the New Testament has repeated and wrought there as a gtgn that Ood approves this second evangelisation of the world. And a s further proof of the sincerity of tbm faith all the good works of Saitoh are done "without money and without price." Every comer is welcome. All strangers are received at the gates to hospitable fashion, are fed and lodged and prayed for, and may atay or depart as their own volition directs. Evangelist Sandford is the head of the Shiloh movement. He started it. It is to him directly, so the -claim is mad*, that Ood makes all the revela- U o n a ^ h a t 4 n « said to justify the endeavofs of tfce Safcta. When at Shllofr Kvansailst Sandford ascends each day t o the-summit of a Jotty tower in the VeArffetetifitf there, so'he states, "talks . . . . , " ; * • • . < ; • ' - religious matters, firmly holding to the belief that we must return to the ways of apostolic times, and intolerant of every creed, the evangelist exercises a wonderful power over his proselytes. He inspires the whole movement. His disciples who go abroad through the country preach as he directs them to preach. Of a magnetic presence, and ready and impetuous Indiscourse/he sways, his audlences in remarkable fashion, and his detractors have accused him of hypnotism. In 1887 Sandford graduated from Bates college in Lewis ton. He was a fine scholar but not a grind, for he was an athlete as well. Had Sandford stuck to professional baseball he might have been the idolof thousands of big league fans. Ho put the same intense energy, the same concentration into bis baseball playing that he does_into_hJs_«ligloju_and_he was one of, if not the greatest coUegeFcatchera Maine ever saw. For one year after leaving he played semi-professional ball with equal success. "God called" this stalwart, blonde, blue-eyed, determined young man and h~e entered the ministry. He started as the pastor of a Free Will Baptist church in. a flourishing Jiew__Hamp^ ahlre town. He was considered a very brilliant young clergyman. He was not satisfied, however, with the limited field in which he worked. He talked the matter over with his wife, and both decided that he was not preaching Bible, neither were they living Bible. So he preached his farewell sermon and explained to his astonished parishioners that he proposed to give away all his property and go forth into the world. He said that he never again would accept a cent of money tor preaching, nor allow a contribution box to be passed in his presence. This surrender of a comfortable house and a good salary was looked upon by the friends of the young couple as a sad example of Quixotic faith. Practical people endeavored to dissuade them. But they broke up their home, gave all their property to the poor, and came down into Maine penniless, "without knowing where to lay their heads." After three years and a half spent in making converts to the movement* the motto of which is simply "the Truth." and in evangelization, work on the Temple at Shiloh was begun. Then with more money coming In, and the "bank of God" apparently always open to Sandford, the first vessels of the Holy Ghost fleet were purchased, and Sandford's dream of the evangelization of the world became more like a reality than a mirage. Several small schooner yachts served out their usefulness, until finally the good-sited barkentine Rebecca Crowell was purchased, and then the famous schooner yacht Coronet, which twenty years ago was hailed as the speediest of b«r class when she defeated the Dauntless in the memorable race across tne oeoan. Recently the steam yacht Alsailfct, said to have been loaned by a friend, has been added and is by far the most pretentious vessel which the Holy Ghosters have ever nsvigated. The name of the Rebecca Crowell was changed to the Kingdom, and after several years of service she went on the rocks on the west coast of Africa last April. One day several weeks later the Coronet picked up the thirty-three survivors in the English settlement of Bathurst and brought all hct«lw>»afe1y to this country > on this last tftp. •• :- . With bis usual shrewdness Sandford incorporated his fleet, and they sailed as the "Kingdom Yacht club/' In this way they avoided the teenis required of merchant vessels. All over the world these vessels have sailed carrying Sandford and his disciples with the "word of truth" to many lands. Many times temporary colonists were left in foreign countries to scatter the seeds of the movement. They went to Liverpool, where a branch was established and where one enthusiastic friend donated « -magnificent residence—as -hea4<B*ar*- ters of the sect. They carried their religion-right to the Holy Land Itself, and Palestine and Assyria were Invaded. When the Coronet was obliged to turn back in the North Atlantic on her last ill-starred voyage she was bound for Greenland, where it was intended that the Holy Ghosters should pass the winter spreading the "truth." The customs and the modes of life at Shiloh are unique. In the big tower, which stands sharp against the sky and can be^seen~for many mite8, constant pray,er is offered to God. Regularly, like sentries of the faith, one after another takes his or her turn in prayer. Never since the tower was built ha9 this ever been vacated. The Shilohltes live much after the mmmunity ay-fitem^-There ia _a_cornmlBsary department. So many loaves of bread, so much flour, so much of this and that is given out as the Lord directs, some days in plenty, others frugally. They raise scarce enough for their sustenance; the land is poor. They pray rather than work. You will see them walking about hour after hour reading the Bible with heads bowed. They don't fear starvation. "The Lord will provide" they tell you. The children have schooling in the ordinary branches, but the Bible is their chief text book. There is one white building specially dedicated to the young folk called the "Hosanna." The Holy Ghosters do not believe In mourning. When a person dies the body is placed in a primitively rude casket. The ceremony at the grave is almost nope. Tears are rarely shed. The body is but a worthless husk, they say. When Ood takes the spirit why should we mourn. The population at Shiloh numbered 200 soon after the first temple was built, and has held near that figure ever since. They represent almost all states In the Union, and several foreign countries. Many of them were well to do when they Joined the colony, but thefr goods, chattels and all worldly wealth Is turned In for the common good. They seem to give away their farms and their bankbooks willingly, too. In the slang of the day, "It's like taking candy from a baby." Endless Chain. The noted actor, who had consented to give a reading for the benefit of a certain charity, arrived home late that night with a very worried look on his face.

"No. You see, the chairman of ths reception committee first made a speech Introducing the chairman of the managing committee.

Going into the kitchen to make one dish, or ge'ting supper for which much of the food has been previous.y pre^ pared, gives no idea of one of the chiel difficulties in getting meals—the se^ quence of work. Unless the thoughtful end orderly arrangements are made the cook may find she is required to perform two pieces of work i t once, and the last moments before the meal will be crowded with more things than can possibly be done, acc r d i n g to. a contributor to the Delineator. The time required to cook different articles of food often furnishes a sort of schedule for getting the meal. Time must be allowed V>t preparation before cooking and for finishing touches after cooking. Except when a gas range is used, the fire is the first thing to attend to. The other things to be arrangod for naturally fall into three groups, to the first of which belong the things which take a long time to cook. Baked and boiled meats, oatmeal, certain puddings and vegetables which are cooked slowly are among those which may be prepared and put on the fire as soon as it is ready for them. Between this and the second grour is an interval which may be used for preparing the dishes of the second group and for setting the table, arranging salad, putting dishes to warm, etc. The second group contains vegetables and desserts, which cook in from 30 to 45 minutes, or anything which is needed in the concluding preparations of the other foods. Now comes another interval, in which cold food, such as bread, butter and milk, may be put on the table, Preparations must also be made for the cooking necessary to the third group, and collecting on the kitchen table seasonings, butter and milk for the cooked vegetables and meat. The third group contains things which must be done in a very brief time before the meal. These are broil- -ing-meatr preparing cooked vegetableefor the table, making sauces and gravy, putting beaten egg or vermicelli in soup and getting everything ararnged in dishes. Then there are three last things for the housewife to do before the meal: To see that the fire is in condition to leave; that soiled pots and pans are filled with water, and last of all to take an instant to wash her hands, remove her apron and make herself presentable, Get a Free Package At Your Praggisf s Wonderful New Treatment for Sidneys, Bladder, Rheumatism, Backache— Thousands of Free Samples Being Given Away!

WHO WANTS "SISSY" MAN Since Bishop HendHx Would Drive ' Him From the Church Whltffsr Will He Flee? I Bishop E. R. Hendrix, in a church council at Kansas City, asked why the chureh was not reaching more men. "Is it because we are adapting our work more to the j^omen?" be demanded. Another prominent.clergyman, Rev. S. M. Neel, M. D., opined that was' somewhere near the reason. "We want no more sissy men in the pul* pit," he declared. A "siBsy" man. In this definition, is one who adapts his preaching and his teaching and his general conduct of parish affairs more to the women—blesB them—than to the men. Dr. Neel Is heartily applauded by a large number of his pulpit brethren and the spirit of the times in the church, as manifested in such enterprises as the "Men and Religion Forward Movement" seems to emphasize what he says—the call and need for the strong, virile man in the pulpit 4 who appeals to the man in the pew and in the street, for making the gospel a man's appeal, not, of course, depreciating the Indispensable value of the women. . That Is ail very well, but where, may we ask, is the typically "sissy" man wanted? What calling or business needs him?

PATTEN, Experiment Station Chemist, East Lansing, Mich. •«»»»•»»•»»»»»«soeee•»»»»»< A fertilizer may be defined aa any material, which, when added to the soil, will furnish some form of plant food (.nitrogen, phosphoric acid, or potash) to the growing plant, or will materially Increase the supply of tnese In the toll. A high grade fertilizer is one which contains the plant food In a fairly concentrated and readily available form. Nitrate of uoda, bone meal, muriate and sulfate of potash may be mentioned as examples of high grade fertilizing materials. A low grade fertilizer is one which contains the plant food in small amounts or in slowly or difficulty available forms. As examples of this class, the following may be mentioned: Garbage, tankage, ground leather, dried peat, untreated phosphate rock, etc. When these materials are sold separately it is not a difficult matter to determine what they are nor how much and how available is the plant tood, for they are usually known and sold under distinctive names. Exhaustive experiments have been made as to availability of the plantfood in practically all of the pertlllzlng materials found on the market today, and such information will be gladly furnished by the state experiment elation, East Lansing, Mich. Wfcee these materials are mixed together to form the mixed fertilizer of commerce it becomes a much more difficult matter to decide as to the availability of the plant-food for most of them completely lose their Identity. In pttrch cases it is Impossible for the ordinary person to tell with the eye what materials were used in compounding the fertilizer. In respect to the phosphoric acid and _P_ota?.h, however, we may have no misgivings, for almost invariably the phosphoric acid is obtained from acidulated rock phosphate or bone meal, and in either case is readily available, practically all of the potash used in ttiercial fertilizers is in the form 'aftirlate or sulphate of potash, and both these compounds are soluble In ifater there need be no fear of obtaining unavailable potash. The materials furnishing notrogen, on the other hand, are many and varled,_ and they differ greatly in nitrogen availability There have been several methods proposed for determining the availability of the nitrogen In such orgaaic materials, but none of them have been- generally accepted, so that we are still somewhat at the mercy of the manufacturer In regard to the quality of the nitrogenous materials used In the commercial, fertilizers. Were is one rule, however, that may spire to guide us in the purchase -e^lirtjllsers. Purchase,,only, _those commercial fertilizers that have 14 per cent, or more of total plant fond. PEST COMMON ON LOWLANDS High grade matertalB usually hare a high percentage of plant tood, and low grate materials, on the Other hand, usually have a low percentage o{ plant tood. tTbuj- n*b(Ete':pr .sofa contains 15,5 per cent, iitrogen; dried blood, 12-14 per cent, nitrogen; high gradw tankage, U per cent., while-gwh ( | *e tankage contains only 3 per cent, nitrogen and mora meal 2.69 per cent, nitrogen. When the high grade nitrogen compounds are mixed with acid phosphate and muriate of potash, the resulting mixture must necessarily be one of high grade; for example: 300 lbs. dried blood containing 14 per cent, nitrogen. 1,400 lbs. acid phosphate containing 14 per cent phou. acid. 300 lbs. muriate potash containing 50 per cent, potash. 2,000 The mixture would have the following analysis: 2.10 per cent, nitrogen. 9.80 per cent, phosphoric acid. 7.50 per cent, potash. MRS. PATTERSON ACQUITTED Woman Who Slew Her Husband is Freed by Denver Jury. Gertrude Gibson Patterson ha* be«n declared not guilty of the murder of her husband on Sept. 2";. The jury in her case agreed on its verdict less than 14 hours after tin' case had been finally submitted to th-em. The verdict came as a surprise. It had been persistently rumored that it was a finding of guilty. In fact it was reported that the jurorB hail agreed that Mrs. Patterson was guilty and that they were delayed only by inability to determine of what degree of homicide she should be convicted. Mrs. Patterson herself had become convinced that she could not expect acquittal. Not one person in 1,000 in Colorado believed that Mrs. Patterson would be acquitted. No one expected her to be hanged but the great majority felt sure that she would be found guilty of some charge and receive a ''light sentence. 19.40 The proportion In which the materials are mixed may be varied, but so long as no inert Material (filler) is added the mixture will be a high grade fertilizer. If, for example, the low grade materials are used, we may have a mixture like the following: 300 lbs. garbage tankage containing 3 per cent, nitrogen. 200 lbs. dried peat containing 2.50 per cent, nitrogen. 1,200 lbs. acid phosphate containing 14 per cent. phoa. acid. 300 lbs, kainlt containing 12 per cent, potash. W. L D0l)GUS' TRUST PUN Manufacturer - Thinks Government Should Obtain Publicity by a License System. 2,000 This mixture would have the following analysis: 0.70 per cent, nitrogen. ; 8.40 per cent, phosphoric acl<J. 1.80 per cent, potash. 10.90 If samples of these two mixtures were placed side by side it would be impossible for the ordinary person to tell from their appearance which of the two was the betU r. However, the anal* sis would give, some guide, as the total percentage of plant food In the first case is 10.40 and in the second case 10.90. It would not be possible to make such a mixture as number one out of low grade "nrateriaj, and neither would it be possible to make such a mixture as number two, using high grade materials, without using a considerable quantity of filler. It is invariably true that the plantfood costs more per pound in the low grade fetillzer than In the high grade fertilizer. In other words, the plantfood In a fertilizer retailing for (23 per ton costs more per pound than in a fertilizer retailing at $40 per ton. The plant-food in the high grade fertilizer \p mnrp enncpntratpd and—less ©f- t t - wlll be required than of the low grade to produce the same effect Russia Opens War on Persia. In consequence of the rejection by the Persian national council of the Russian demands, Russia has ordered the Russian troops now concentrated at Resht, capital of the Persian province of Ghilan, 1G miles from Enzell, on the Caspian sea, to advance on Teheran. This is war.. It means that another conflict has been added to the two important wars now on in the arena of world events. Russian demanded that Persia dismiss from office her expert financier, W. Morgan Shuster, an American citizen, whose methods of administering his office have offended Russia. Persia refused.

Large business organizations have come to «tay. We cannot go back to old conditions. We must meet world cqmpetltion. Large "concerns can produce goods at lower cost than small ones. Germany favors large corporations. The method of the present national administration is to dissolve the great organizations and make them smaller, which is a backward step. There should be no limit to a corporation doing a large and legitimate business, such as would be possible under the licensing plan which I favor, writes W. L. Douglas, former governor of Massachusetts, in the Hoston Herald, Prejudices against corporations merely because they are big, perhaps, must be done away with. They give labor better returns. They cheapen product and thus benefit the consumer. They give opportunities to small investors who get returns otherwise (unattainable. They employ able young men who have no capital at all, but who receive handsome salaries for their ability and service. In place of the Sherman law it Is my opinion there should be a department at Washington to grant licenses to all manufacturers and corporations in this country who do an interstate commerce business. The law sheuld be made so clear, plain and definite that it could not be misunderstood. It should require all capital to be paid in full. Semi-yearly statements should be given to the public and certified by a public accountant. There should be a board of examiners is each state to look after these corporations just as our national banks are watched by the national government. They should have the right to enter the offices and examine the records of all the directorates of these companies. One of the Boonet. From San Antonio, Tex., comes Harry Boone, Itinerant scribe.

Old carpets, blankets, etc., often will be found useful In helping to make the bins tight. Measure the Inside of the bin, counting in the air space above the grain, If the bin is not entirely full, and place some old pans or plates on top of the grain. Then for every cubic foot of space in the bin, put a dram of liquid carbon bisulphide in the pans and quickly close the bin. Thus a pound of the liquid will suffice for about one hundred cubic feet of space or a little more, or for about one hundred bushels of grain. This treatment is far more effective during warm weather than In cold. During severe cold weather the Insects are dormant and resist the action of the fumes quite successfully. If the seed or grain Is more than two or three feet deep in the bin, the liquid should be poured into it at some depth tn order to insure its spreading evenly and filling all the space treated-. This is easily done with a piece of gas-pipe fitted with a wooden stick for Its entire length. The pipe with the stick in place is thrust down half way to the bottom of the bin, the stick withdrawn and the liquid poured down through the pipe. The stick merely prevents the pipe from becoming filled when thrust into place. The bin should remain tightly closed for from twenty-four to forty-eight hours, a longer exposure is likely to injure the germinative power in some seeds. ' The liquid carbon bisulphide, on being liberated, win be quickly transformed into a gas, which being heavier than the air, settles to the bottom and fills all the air spaces between the seeds or kernels.^ Tqe Jiqnid costs about thirty cents' for a single pound, or five pounds for a dollar. The work must be,done in, the day time, away from lamps, stoves or fire of any tort No fire must he allowed to come near until everything has been thoroughly aired for the gaa or fumes are very explosive when mired with air.

In order to be perfectly sure that hay is well cured on our father's farm, we always put it up into goodsized cocks and allowed it to remain about two days. This second handling exposes all the damp hay to the air and is swift in curing. If you hare a hay-loader, count yourself lucky; but if not, hitch two horses to the end of a pole about eight feet long, straddle one or two cocks and drag them to the stack, if the hay is to be left standing in the flel(J. A device shown in the cut is a home-made stacker recommended by an Illinois farmer. He says thla stacker when equipped with a fork and an active horse, will handle all the hay six wagons can bring in. The rope is fastened at the top and bottom of a strong, slanted pole, and tha fork hangs over the center of the stack. The wagon la placed alongside the board slldeway and the fork used the same is in the barn. If the hay is to be stored in the barn, you will need a steady team on the wagon. The hayrack ought to be about sixteeen feet long and ten feet wide. If you are a good loader, boardB at the end and sides will not be necesgary. When you arrive at the barn with a load, hitch a steady horse on the end of the rope attached to the hay-fork^ aet the harpoon aa deeply aa possible, and the horse will draw up 300 pounds in a twinkling. When the hay has run along the carrier to the point where it Is to be • if- . ^' 1**""' Vialting Couairr"Driving T e a m . dropped, pull the whip-cord, and there you are. With a bright boy to handle the horse on the rope and an experienced man on the load, it can be put into the barn In ten minutes or less. Always begin at the back end of the mow, or the end farthest from the chute to the barn floor, because when the hay is put in in that way, It will come out easier when being fed. It la a good plan to place the hay level in the mow when i t is being unloaded. If you can get an extra man to help, so much the better; If not, do the best you can betweaa bite* with the fork, and keep the mew as level aa possible.

It Has Been Found to Be M o r e Nutritious T h a n Timothy and Nearly Equate A l f a l f a . In the peat horse feeders have not understood the value of clover hay. Glover should constitute one of tbe main coarse roughages for horses. It hat been found to be more nutritious than timothy and nearly equals alfalfa in this respect Feeders object to it, however, because of its tendency te produce heave* and other respiratory troubles when fed in a dusty or etherwise unclean condition. These objection* do not apply to clover which la cut at the right time* properly cured* and free from dust mold. Moldy clever will often cause acute Indigestion aad even death. Those who do not care to feed straight clover will find that a grade of light clover natxed wHl give better results than tttnothy, and there Is no good reasoa why ft should sot be used extensively.

MICHIGAN JEWS ARE iONGEST LIVED Their Average Age la Nearly Twelve Yeari Greater Than That of Christians. m PULE Superficial scrutiny of the vital statUtlcB yields the Jew a prominent por t i o n in the sanitary world, if longevity serveB aB any index of hygienic liv ing. With the average length of life for all Christian people placed at thirty-six years eleven months (1900) the Jew may hope to reach forty-eight years nine months. Neufville (1855), inquiring into the comparative duration of life and causes of deaths of Jews and Christians in Frankfort, learned that one-fourth of the Jewish population was living beyond seventy-one years, while only one-fourth of their neighbors were living beyond the age of fifty-nine yearB ten months. Abbott claims that "they (i. e,, Jews) are much less frequently the subjects of tubercular and acute epidemic diseases than any other race of mankind." Why should this seeming vital superiority exist? According to Richardson, "the causes are simply summed up in the term 'soberness ->? life.' The Jew drinks less than his 'even Christian;' he takes, as a rule, better food; he marries earlier; he rears the children he has brought Into the world with greater personal care; he tends the aged more thoughtfully; he takes better care of his poor and he takes better care of himself." To this might have been added that through religious customs hygienic tendencies became an inheritance.— Dietetic and Hygienic Gazette.

When Mrs. Hayes Served Wine. It will be remembered that Mrs. Hayes was one of the most Influential members of the Women's Christian Temperance Union; and contrary to all precedents, she was determined that wines and other alcoholic beve_r ages should not be served at the White House, while she was there. The only time this rule was broken, as is well known, occurred when two grand dukes of Russia-—Alexis and Constantine—were officii lly entertained there. This was the first and ]ast time. I believe, that such a thing "happened while President Hayes was in the White House,—W. II Crook in 'Memories of the White House Washington, —President Tuft'i annual mesitKe, which was rend In both house* of cuiiKress Tuesday, deals exclusively with the antl-truat statute. The meusage In part Is as follows: To the Senate and House of Ruprnnentatlvee: This mfssiRH is the first several which I shall sond to congn-s .jrlng the interval between the opening of Its regular session and Its adjournment for the Christmas holidays, Th»* amount of Information to be communicated aa to the operations of the government, the number of important subjects calling for comment by the executive, and the transmlHslon to congress of exhaustive report « by special commissions, make it lrn- # possible to Include Jn one message of a reasonable length a discussion of the topics that ought to be brought to the attention of the national legislature at Us first regular session The Antl-Truat Law—The Supreme Court Decisions. In May last the Supreme court handed down decisions Jn the suits In equity brought by the United State* to enjoin the further maintenance of the atandard Oil trust and of the American Tobacco trust, and to secure their dissolution. The decisions are epoch-making and serve to advise the business world authoritatively of the scope and operation of the antitrust law of 1890. The decisions do not depart In any substantial way from the previous decisions of the court in construing and applying this Important statute. hut they clarify those important decisions by further defining the already admitted exceptions to the literal construction of the act. By the decrees, they furnish a useful precedent as to the proper method of dealtrrff wtth~the capital and property of Illegal trusts. These decisions suggest the need and wisdom of additional or supplemental legislation to make ft easier for the entire business community to square with the rule of action and legality thus finally established and to jnrrsprve the benefit, freedom and spur of reasonable competition without loss o f real efficiency or progress. Nc Change in the Rule of Decision— Merely In Form of Expression. The Btatutft In Its first Rectlon declares to be illegal "every contract, combination In the form of trust or otherwise, or conspiracy. In roHtraint of trade or commerce amon« the several states or with foreign nations," and In the second, declares guilty of a misdemeanor every person who shall monopolize or attempt to monopolise or combine or conspire witli any other person to monopolize any part of the trade or commerce of the several Btntos or with foreign nations." In two early cases where the statute was invoked to en loin n transportation agreement between Interstate raflroad companies, It WUH held that It was no defense to show thnt the agreement as to rates complained of wus reasonal at common law— heetiHKt*- ft wo* *ntrr that- the" statute was directed against all contracts anrl combinations In restraint of trnde whether reasonal at common law or not. It was plain from the record, however, that the conlracts complained of In thos" cases would not have been deemed reasonable at common law, Tt has been Bald that the court, by Introducing Into the construction of the statute common luiy__dlstl net Ions, has Drooms With Bamboo Handles. The broom long familiar is made with ft handle of.turned wood, but now theH are made also brooms with bandles_ of bamboo. The bamboo handled" broom i s a little more ornamental, its joints may perhaps give a little better grip, and it is a little lighter, and it costs a little more than the broom with' a handlt of turned wood; it has sometimes Veen called the lady's broom. II is made in medium sizes, designed fot household use. Peculiarity of Twining Plants. One of the peculiarities to be no ticed In connection with the twining of plants Is the fact that with very few exceptions all the individuals of one species alwayB twine In the same direction. Most plants twine to the opposite course to the movement of the sun or the hands of a watch Such twiners are the morning glory, wisteria, wax plant, trumpet creeper and many others. Among those which twine in the opposite direction the hop and wild blndwWd, or climbing polygonum, are familiar examples.—Harper's Weekly. An Orchard In Boston. When Augustus L. Thorn dike of Brewster supped recently at the Hotel Thorndike his friends learned for the first time that the hotel was named after his family, and that the famous old Thorndike orchard once occupied the site of the hotel.

Bv its Judgment every contract and combination In restraint of Interstate trade made with the purpose, or necessary effect of conli"'l"<i'i prices hv stiM ns< competition, or of establishing In whole or in part n monopoly of such trade, Is condemned by the statute The most extreme crltllcs cannot Instance a case that ouftht to he condemned under the statute which Is not hroucrht within Its terms as thus construed Thp sueeVTlon Is a 1 so rruTde" that tho Ruprem »* court by Its decls'ons in the last iw" rases has committed to the court the undefined and unlimited discretion to determine whether n case of restraint of trade Is within the terms of the statute This 1s wholly untrue A reasonable restraint of trade at common law Is well understood and \<* clenrly defined. Tt does not rest in the discretion of the court. It rroM be limited to aoompl'sh the purpose of n lawful main contract to which, in order that it shall he enforceable at nil, It must be inoMnitnt Tf <t exceeds the need? of that contract it is void The Remedy In Equity by Dissolution. l/i the Standard Oil case the 8uprerne and circuit courts found the combination to be a monopoly of the Interstate business of refining, transporting, and marketing petroleum and Its products, effected *nd maintained through thirty-seven d'Cerent corporations, the stock of which was held by a New Jersey company. It in effect commanded the dissolution of this combination, directed the transfer end pro-rata distribution by the New Jersey company of the stock held by It in the thirty-seven corporations to and among Its stockholders, and the corporations and Individual defendants were en- Joined from conspiring or combining to reetore such monopoly: and all agreements betwen the subsidiary corporations tending to produce or bring about further violations of the act were enjoined In the Tobaero case, the court found that the Individual defendants, twentynine In number, had been engaged In a eucressful effort to acquire complete dominion over the manufacture, sale, and distribution of tobacco in this country and abroad, and that this had been done bv combinations made with a purpose and effect to stifle competition, control prices, and establish a monopoly, not only in the manufacture of tobacco, but also of tin-foil and licorice, used In Its manufacture and n' its products of clears, cigarettes and snuffs The tobacco suit presentend a far more complicated and difficult case than the Standard Oil suit for a decree which would effectuate the will of the court and end the violation of the statute There was here no gtngle holding company as in the case of the Standard Oil trust The main compeny was the Amerl"an Tobacco company a manufacturing, selhng and holding company The plan adopted to destroy the combination and restore competition involved the redtvls'on of the capital an* plants of the whole trust between rorre -r the companies constituting the t r v ^r>d new companies organised for t^ • — > "-i"* of th" r]frm* and made part' »nrf - • ' m h T ' n t new and old. *vere twentybarged with '> «^om the rereteert Its unlawful dominion. Under the decree these defendants will hold amounts of stuck in the varioua dlatributt-f companies ranging from 41 per cent, tus a maximum to Z&Vj per cent, as a minimum, except in the caso of one small company, the Porto Mean Tobacco company, In which they will hold 46 per cent. The twenty-nine Individual defendants are enjoined for three years from buying any Btock except from each other, and the group Is thus prevented from extending Its control during that period. All parties to the suit, and th* new companies who are made parties, are enjoined perpetually from in any way effecting any combination between any of the companies in violation of the statute by way of resumption of the old trust. Each of tho fourteen companies la enjoined from acquiring atock in any of the others. All these companies are enjoined from having common directors or officers, or common buying or selling agenta, or common offices, or lending money to each other. Sizo of New Companies, Objection was made by certain independent tobacco companies that this settlement was unjust because It left companies with very large capital In active business, and that the settlement that would be effective to put all on an equality would be a division of the capital and plant of the trust into small fractions in amount more nearly equal to that of each of the independent companies. This contention results from a misunderstanding of tho anti-trust law and Its purpose. It is not Intended thereby to prevent the accumulation of large capital in business enterprises In which auch a combination can secure reduced cost of production, sale and distribution. It la directly against such un aggregation of capital only when Its purpose Is that of stifling competition, enhancing or controlling prices and establishing a monopoly. If we shall have by the decree defeated these purposes and restored competition between tho large units Into which the capital, and plant have been divided, we shall have- accomplished the useful purpoDe of the statute. Confiscation Not the Purpose of the Statute. It Is not the purpose of the statute to confiscate the property and capital of the offending trusts, Methods of punishment by fine or imprisonment of the individual offenders, by tine of the corporation, or by forfeiture of its goods In transportation, are provided, but the proceeding in equity is a specific remedy to stop the operation of the trust by injunction and present the future use of the plant and capital in violation of the statute. I venture to say that not In the history of American law has a decree more effective for such a purpose been entered by a court than that against the Tobacco trust. — Common-Stock OwnerarVrpTIt has been assumed that the present [pro-rata and common ownership In all these companies by former stockholders of the trust would insure a continuance of the same old sinsio control of all tho companies Into which the trust has by decree been disintegrated. This Is erroneous and Is based upon the assumed Inefneacy and innocuousness of judicial Inj u n c t t o p s Thfl c o m p a n i e s a r e r n f o l n a d - from co-operation or combination; they have different managers, directors, purchasing and sales agents. If all or any of the numerous stockholders,' reaching Into the thousands, attempt to secure concerted action of the companies with n view to the control of the market, their number Is so large that Ruch an attempt could not well be concealed and Its prime movers and all Its participants (would be at once subject to contempt proceedings and Imprisonment of a summary character. "Die Immediate IresuTf of t?fo_p"resen— situation will necessarily be activity by all the companies rnder different man agers and then competition must follow or there will be activity by one companv and stagnation by another. Only a short time will inevitably lead to a change In ownership of the stock, as all opportunity for continued co-operation must disappear. M o v e m e n t for Repeal of the Anti-Trust Law. But now that the anti-trust act is seen to be effective for the accomplishment of the purpose of its enactment, we are met by a cry from many different quarters for its repeal. It Is said to be obstructive of business progress, to be an attempt to restore old-fashioned methods of destructive competition between small units, and to make impossible those useful combinations of capital and the reduction of the cost of production that are essential to continued prosperity and normal growth. In the -recent decisions the Supreme court makes clear that there Is nothing in the statute which condemns combinations of capital or mere bigness of plant organized to secure economy in production and a reduction of its cost. It is only when the purpose or necessary effect of the organisation and maintenance of the combination or the ag-gregatlon of Immense slse are the stifling of competition, actual and potential, and the enhancing of prices and establishing a monopoly, that the statute Is violated. Mere size Is no sin against the law. The merging of two or more busines plants necessarily eliminates competition between the units thus combined, but this elimination Is in contravention of the statute only when the combination is made for purpose of ending this particular competition in order to secure control of. and enhance, prices and create a monopoly. Lack of Deflnltenese In the Statute. The complaint Is made of the statute that It Is not sufficiently definite In Its description of that which Is forbidden, to enable huslness men to avoid its violation. The suggestion la, that we may have a combination of two corporations, which may run on for years, and that subsequently the attorney general may conclude that It was a violation of the statute, and that wM'h was supposed by the combiners to be Inocent then turns out to be a combination In violation of the statute The answer to this hypothetical case is that when men attempt to amass stupendous capital as will enable them to suppress competition, control prices and establish a monopoly they, know the purpose of their acts. Men do not do such a thing without having It clenrlv in mind New Remedies Suggested. Much la said of the repeal of this statute and of fonstnirttve legislation Intended to accomplish the purpoae and blase a clear path- for hon*#t merchants and buslt.tss men to follow. It may b<* that such a plan will be evolved, but I submit that, the dbcuanlona which have been brought out In recent days by the fear of the continued execution of the antitruHt law Jiave produced nothing but glittering generalities and have offered no line of distinction or rule of action as definite und us clear as that which the Supreme court Itself lays down in ^nforclnK thw statute Supplemental Legislation Needed—Not Repeal or Amendment. 1 see no objection— aad Indeed I can see decided advantages—in the eaactment of a law which shall descrlbo and denounce methods of competition, which are unfair and are badges of the unlawful purpoae denounced In the anti-trust law. The attempt and purpose to suppress a competitor by underselling him at a price so unprofitable as to drive him out of business, or the making of exclusive contracts with customers under which they are required to g i v e up a s s o c i a t i o n w i t h other roanuaciurers, and numerous kindred methods for stifling competition and effecting monopoly, should be described with sufficient accuracy in a criminal statute on the one hand to enable the government to shorten Its task by prosecuting single misdemeanors Instead of an entire conspiracy, an& on the other hand, to Berve the purpose of pointing out more In detail to the buslnef* community what must be avoided. Federal Incorporation Recommended. in a special meB*ajre to c o n g r e s s on January 7. 1910, I ventured to point out the disturbance to b u s i n e s s that would probably attend the dissolution of these offending trusts. I said: "But such an i n v e s t i g a t i o n and p o s - sible prosecution of corporations w h o s e prosperity or d e s t r u c t i o n affects the comfort not only of s t o c k h o l d e r s but of millions of w " g e earners, e m p l o y e s , and associated tradesmen must n e c e s - sarily tend to disturb the confidence Of the business c o m m u n i t y , to dry up the n o w flowing s o u r c e s of capital from i t s places of hoarding, and produce a halt in our p r e s e n t prosperity that will cause suffering and strained c i r c u m - s t a n c e s a m o n g the innocent m a n y for the fault of t h e g u i l t y few.

GOLDEN RULE APPLIED BRINGS FORTH CONFESSION. James, the Youngest Brother,. Will Get a Life Sentence—John 14 Years—Further Confessions Expected. The most sensational criminal trial ever started in America since the trials of the Molly Maguires or the Chicago Haymarket bombthrowers, came to a dramatic end in Los Angeles, Cal., when James B. McNamara. pleaded guilty to dynamiting on October 1, 19J.0, the Loa Angeles •Times building, in which terrible explosion 21 persona lost their lives in flame and agony, and his brother, John J. McNamara, plead-ed guilty to dynamiting the Llew«llyn Iron Works in Los Angeles a few days later, The accused men had entered pleas of not guilty. They had repeatedly protested to all the world that they were innocent vietlms of a plot against union labor framed by prominent Los Angeles men and Detective William John Burns and his agents. Union labor leaders all over the United States had rallied to their defence and raised a huge defense fund —$400,000 or more—and some of the ablest lawyers in the west had taken charge of ^their defense. Socialists in Los Angeles had made their cause their own, awaking popular sympathy to such a degree that election of a Socialist mayor in the municipal election of December 5 had come to be feared by the conservative elements of the city, the candidate being Job Harriman, one of the lawyers for the McNamara defense. So sreat -was local sympathy that bloodshed at the polls was feared. So, when the brothers changed their pleas voluntarily, though on advice of Clarence S. Darrow and Joseph Scott, two of the ablest of their lawyers, the astonishment was not confined to Los Angeles.or the Pacific slope, but ran with electric flash to the bounds of the nation, Startling as was the Sudden confession of guilt on the part of the McNamara brothers, more aodazing to the people of^ljos Angeles was the information that big business men had brought about the surrender in a novel way. That the application of the golden rule and the principle of conciliation founded on religious convictions started the ball rolling toward the admission of gui^t by the McNaraaras, was the theory, supported and confirmed by more than a dozen business men jyhii_jirirticipated in the movement 00GT0RS SAID HE W0UU5 D £ + . - •. , - • • • • : • • * •<.' i A Friend's Advice Saves Life.

Federal Corporation Commission Proposed, I do not set forth In detail the terms and sections of a statute which might supply the constructive legislation permitting and aiding the formation of combinations of capital into federal corporations. They should be subject to rigid rules aa To their orgfantzattorf and procedure- in- j eluding effective publicity, and to the | "lowest snperyislon as to the issue of stock and bonds by an executive bureau or commission In the department of <» ••onimerce and labor, to which in times of < doubt they might well submit their proposed plans for future business, It must be distinctly understood that incorporat e under a federal law could not exempt the company thus formed and its incorporators and managers from prosecution under the anti-trust law for subsequent llegal conduct, but the publicity of Its procedure and the opportunity for frequent consultation as to the legitimate purpose of lta transactions would offer •it aa great eecurity against successful prosecutions for violations of the law as would be practical or wise. Such a bureau or commission might well be invested also with the duty already referred to, of aiding the courts In the dissolution and recreation of trusts within the law. It should be an executive tribunal of the dignity and power of the comptroller of the currency or the interstate commerce commission, which now exercise supervisory power over important classes of corporations under federal regulation. The drafting of such a federal Incorporation law would offer ample opportunity to prevent many man)feet evils in corporate management today, including irresponsibility of control in the hands of the few who are not the real owner*. incorporation Voluntary. I recommend that the federal charters thus to be granted shall be voluntary, at leaat until experience justifies mandatory provisions, The benefit to be derived from the operation of great businesses under the protection of such a charter would attract all who are anxious to keep within the lines of the law. Other large combinations that fall to take advantage of the federal Incorporation will not have a right to complain if their failure is ascribed to unwillingness to submtt their transactions to the careful scrutiny, competent supervision and publicity attendant upon the enjoyment of such a charter. Supplemental Legislation Needed. The opportunity thus suggested for federal incorporation, it seems to me, Is suitable constructive legislation needed to facilitate the squaring of great industrial enterprises to the rule of action laid down, by the anti-trust law This statu*! a s construed by the Supreme court m u s t continue to be the line nf distinction for legitimate business. It must be enforced. unless we are to banish Individualism from aH business and reduce It to one common system of regulation or control ef priceslike that which now prevails with reeeee< to public utilities, and which when applied to all business would be a long star toward state socialism.

Frank'in, n-Ati££Hsa-dtuar.tlutvr on a charge of bribing a prospective juror, the silence mdntain-ed by the prosecution as to the origin of the 914,000 seized at the time of the arrest; the myster'ous appearance at the district attorney's office of Lawrence Sullivan, a detective, and the subsequent perturbation of the prosecution when it was discovered that Sullivan's visit had become known to outsiders,- — - — Another blow to the defense was the knowledge that the state i'>ad installed a dictagraph in McManigal's room, which faithfully recorded every word spoken at the conference between McManigal and the men who knew the facts about the McNamara brothers. Clarence S. Darrow, chief counsel for the men, had become convinced that nothing could save the men and advised acceptance of the state's promise of mercy. There is still another feature of the case which presents an interesting aspect. M. A.

McManigal, who confessed to having actually blown up the Llewellyn Iron works in December, 1910, at the direction of John J.

He searches the victims finding papers and a locket with a woman's portrult. KHth Is arrested at Carson City, charged with the murder, his accuser beinjr a ruffian named Illack Hart. A negro companion In his eel) named Neb tells him that he knew the Keiths In Virginia. Neb s a y s on;- of the murdered men was John Sibley, tho other Gen. Willis Watte, formerly a Confederate officer. The plainsman and Neb escape, and later the fugitives come upon a cabin and find Its occupant to be a youns «rirl. whom Keith thinks he saw at Carson City. The girl explains t h a t she Is In search of a brother, who had d>serted from the urmy. and that a Mr. Hawley Induced her to come to the cabin while he sought her brother. Hawley appears, and Keith In hiding recognises him as Black Bart. There is a terrifje brittle In the darkened room In which KAitft Is victor.

Keith explains mm situation and the fugitives make for Fart Larned. where the gl^l is left with the hotel landlady Miss Hope tells that «he is the daughter of General Walte. Keith and Neb drift Into Sheridan, where Keith meets an old friend. Dr. Fairhaln. Keith meets the Brother of Hope Waite, under the assumed name of Fred Wllloughby. and becomes convinced that tBlack Bnrt has some plot Involving the two. Hope learns that Gen. Walte, who w a s thought murdered, is at Sheridan, and goes the.n\ where she is mistaken for <Jhrlstie Maclaire, the Carson City singer. Keith meets the real Christie Maclaire And finds that Black Bart has convinced her that there is a mystery in her life which he is going to turn to her advantage. CHAPTER XXII.—(Contolnued.) "Miss Maclaire," be said, pleasantly, *'I trust you will pardon all that has occurred between us, and permit roe to explain." *'l—I do not understand," she replied, puzzled by these unexpected words. "There has nothing occurred between us. I am sure, which requires explanation. Have we met before?" The man smiled. Seeing the woman's lace in the shadows he was_ still convinced she was the same he had last parted with on the Salt Fork. However, if she preferred to ignore all that, and begin their relations anew, it was greatly to his liking. It gave him Insight Into her character, and fresh confidence that he could gain her aaince. Anyhow, he was ready ugh to play her game. *Let us assume not," just the slighttrace of mockery in the tone, "and Jbegln anew. At least, you will confess the receipt of my letters—t am Bart-" lett Hawley." She cast a half-frightened glance toward Keith, and the man, following the direction of her eyes, perceived t a * presence of the other, His right leg-went backward, his hand dropping to tire belt, his form stiffening erect. Keith'a voice;—low—btrt—clear -+a the" silence, seemed to cut the air. "Not a motion, Hawley! I have you covered." "Oh, gentlemen, please don't!" "Have no fear, Miss Maclaire; this rnan and 1 will settle our difference elsewhere, and not in your presence." He stepped forth into the middle of the room, revolver drawn, but held -low- at the- hip, his watchful- eyes ) never deserting the gambler's face. "flack up against the wall, Hawley." he commended. "I hardly need to tell you how I shoot, for we, at least, have S o t before. Now, I'm going out, and leave 700>to your Interview with Miss •facJafre. a*4 I wish you happiness He moved across to tfefe opening, keeping his face toward his adversary; then backed out slowly, closed the door with a snap, and sprang aside to avoid any possibility of a bullet crashing after him. No sound of movement from within reached hia ears, however, and he walked silently to the head of the stairs. *.7*1 • CHAPTER XXIII. .'*«»•;'.• ' A i g f r r * * Uyxpooted Meeting. W t t - p K o s e d at the landing, looking down Into the deserted office, almost tempted to return and force Hawk*y into a confession of his purpose. ]t was easy for him to conceive what would be the.final result of this interview between the artistic gambler and Miss Maclaire. In spite of the vague suspicion of evil which the plainsman had implanted within the woman's salad, the other possessed the advantage/ and would, certainly I t Alt conditions were date'f**- Isfc favor. He merely HCjjb ewrtnee the girl that she wmUlty the party sought, and she'would go forward, playing the fame he desired, believing herself right, totally unconscious of .any trend The very simplicity of it rendered the piot the more dangerous, tho more difficult to expose. Hawley had surely been favored by fortune in discovering this singer who chanced to resemble Hope so remarkably, and who. at the same time, was in such ignorance as to her own parentage. She would be ready to grasp at a straw, and, once persuaded as to her identity and legal rights, could henceforth be trusted implicitly as an ally. Realising all this, snd comprehend- I n n r t e * now easily Hawley would w4n her coafldeaoV an3 overcome bis wamjnj,by; denouncing him aa,s fugitive from justice charged with musder, U e teaatation to return and flgJU U "Was Your Call Upon Miss Maclaire Very Interesting?" out then and there became almost overpowering. He had no fear of Hawley; Indeed, physical fear had scar-eel y—a- placeftr-faterromposi tioTr, but he was not as yet sufficiently fortified with facts Jor the seeking of such an encounter. A man came in through the office, and began climbing the stairs. He was almost at the landing before Keith recognized him or the other g4frfteed- up. _ "Ah—seen her, I suppose?" "Yes," returned Keith, not thinking It worth while to mention the lady's denial of having sent for him. "I have just come from there." "Hum—thought you'd he through by this time—fine looking girl, ain't she? —believe I'll run in and chat with her myself." . "1 would advise you to Belect some other time, Doctor," said the younger, drily, "as the lady has a visitor at present" "A visitor?" his face rosy, his shrewd eyes darkening. "Ah, indeed! Of the male sex?" "I judge so—'Black Bart' Hawley." "Good Lord!" so startled his voice broke. "Did he see you?" "Rather; 1 hacked him up against the wall with a gun while I made my adieu." "But what brought him there? Are they acquainted?" "Don't ask conundrums, Doctor. He may be your rival with the fair lady for all I know. If he Is, my sympathies are all with you. Only I wouldn't try to see Miss Christie Just now; I'd wait for a clearer field. Hawley is probably not In the best of humor." Fairbain stared Into tbs face of the speaker, uncertain whether or not be was being laughed a t "Reckon you're right,'4 he acknowledged at last. "Tired, anyhow—been out all night—thought I'd like to see her again, though—finest looking woman I've met since I came West— remarkable eyes—well, HI go along to bed—see you again to-morrow. Jack." Keith watched the sturdy figure stamp heavily down the hall-way, loose boards creaking under bis positive tread, and smiled to himself at the thought that be might have, indeed, become truly interested in the music hall singer. Somehow, the doctor did not harmonize with the conception of love, or fit graciously into the picture. Still, stranger matings had occurred, and Cupid does not ask permission before he plays pranks with hearts. Keith turned again toward the stairs, only to observe a woman slowly cross the office and commence the ascent. She was in the shadow, her face even more deeply 8haded by. her bat. yet he stared at her in amaxement—surely, It was MJss Maclaire! Yet how could it be? He had left that person scarcely five minutes before in ; 26." and this stairw a i , Tflt the_only exit His hand also? As her foot touched the landing, she saw him, her eyes lighting up euddenly In recognition, a wave of Color ffooaTneTTer cheeks. — "Why. Captain Keith." she exclaimed, extending her gloved hand frankly, "you have been to my room, and were going away, I am so glad I came in time." "I hardly thought to meet you." he replied, retaining her fingers in his grnap—iiwbea--4id—you- reach Shcrl' dan?" "Only last night. I had no idea you were here until Doctor Fairbain chanced to mention your name, Then ! at once begged him to tell you how exceedingly anxious I was to see you. You see. I was sure you would come if you only knew. I really thought you would be here this morning, and remained In my room waiting, but there were some things I actually had to have. T wasn't out ten minutes, so you mustn't think I sent you a message and then forgot." The nature of the mistake was becoming apparent, and Keith's gray eyes smiled as they looked Into the depths of -the brown. "Your message had rather an amusing result," he said, "as the doctor informed me that Miss Christie Maclaire was the one who desired my presence." "Miss Maclafre!" her voice exhibiting startled kjrprlse. "Why—why— oh, I did forget; I never told him differently. Why, It was most ridiculous." She laughed, white teeth gleaming between the parted red lips. yet not altogether happily. "Let me explain, Captain Keith, for really 1 .have not been masquerading, Doctor ffalrbain ai»d 1 arrived upon the same tomm last evening.

I remember now that although he introduced himself, I never once thought to mention to him my name. The town was very rough last ulght—the company had paid off the graders I was told— and there was no carriage, so we were compelled to walk. I—1 never saw such a mob of drunken men. One came reeling against me. and brushed aside my veil so as to see my face. The doctor struck him, and then the marshal came up—you know him. Bill Hlckock—and the impudent fellow actually declared he knew me. that I was Christie Maclaire I tried to explain, but they hurried me on through the crowd to the hotel, and 1 became confused, and forgot. Do you suppose they registered me by that i name?" ! "Quite likely; at least Fairbain still believes It was the Christie whom he so gallantly escorted last night." ] "How provoking," her foot tapping ; the floor, a little wrinkle between her eyes. "It fyeems as though I couldn't j escape that woman—does she—does she really look like me?" "At a little distance, yes," h.e_..admitted, "her form and face resemble yours very closely, but her hair Is j darker, her eyes have a different expression, and she must be five or six years older," "Do—do you know ner well?" "No, Indeed; I have sef?r. her several times on the stage, but never met her until a few moments ago." "A few moments ago! Do you mean she is here In this hote)?" "Yes, Miss Hope, and that was what made the mistake in names so. laughable. Fairbain gave me your message, but as coming from Christie. 1 was, of course, greatly surprised, yet responded The lady very promptly denied having sent for me, but as 1 -»ias anxious to interview her myself, we managed to drift into conversation, and I must have pasfed a half hour there I might haye been there still, but for an Interruption." "Oh, indeed!" with rising Inflection. He glanced quickly about, reminded of the situation. "Yes, Hawley came in, and I would prefer not to meet him here, or have him discover you were in Sheridan. Could we not go to your room? I have much tn tell you." Her questioning eyes left his face. and stared down over the rail. A heavily built man, wltl\ red moustache, leaned against tho clerk's desk, "Do you know that man?" she asked quickly. "He foHowed me all the time I was shopping. I—I believe he is the same one jwho jostled me in the crowd last night." Keith leaned past her to get a better view, but the fellow turned, and slouched away. "1 only had a glimpse, but have no recollection of ever seeing hira before. You heard no name?" ^'Wlld Bill' called him either Scott, or Scotty—If this is the same man." Keith's Ja,w set, the fighting light burning In his eyes. That was the name of the fellow rooming with Wllloughbx, the one who seemed to be Hawley's special assistant. "A mere accident probably; but about my request? May 1 talk with you a few moments alone?" She bowed, apparently still dissatisfied regarding his lengthy conversation with Christie, yet permitted him to follow down the hall. She held open the door of "15," and he entered silently, not wholly understanding the change In her manner. She stood before the dresser, drawing off her gloves and removing her hat. "Will you be seated, Captain; the arm-chair by the window Is the more comfortable." She turned toward him, almost shyly, yet with womanly curiosity which would not be stilled. "Was your call upon Miss Maclaire very interesting? Did you admire her very much?" (TO BE CONTINUED.)

Owosso,—A fire, attributed to spontaneous combustion, swept, through the furniture r..nd hardware store' •Jt Pearce & Ward with almost incredible rapidity after a small flame had been discovered in the rear of the store by a policeman. The flames, fanned by a brisk southwest wind, caused damage approximating $100,- J00, shared by a score of business firms and individuals. A heap of spoking ruins is all that marks tho northeast corner of the intersection of Main and Washington streets, the business center of the city. There stood the Pearce & Ward store, a three-story and basement brick block 48 by 100 feet. With plate glass fronts shattered and stocks more or less damaged, several Burrounding stores are boarded up and closed. Portttatrr ==- Air- atWhipI to burn the beautiful country home of Charles Stlnchfield, at Bloomfleld Hills, was made and only Mr. Stinchfield's thoughtfulness for the safety of a neighbor was responsible for the timely discovery of the blaze. A stranger called at the Stlnchfield home juid asked to be kent over night, Be- Ing refused, he started away from the homo muttering unintelligible things. Mr. Stlnchfield, fearing for the safety of a widow living nearby, arose and went out the front door. A fire had been started under the porch and was fast gaining headway. Tho blaze was extinguished and officers were summoned. Kalamazoo.—The governors of ten western states arrived here from Chicago, 40 minutes ahead of schedule time, to make the second stop of their tour of tho central western and eastern states.

Physicians hope to save his life. Garyllng.—Frank C. Cram and Roy Brown, Frederic boys, came home from Sunday school and taking their 22-callber rifles, went out In the back yard to shoot at a mark. They Btuck up an old boat paddle for a target, both boys kneeling down to take aim. The Cram boy, who was slight ly in front of the Brown boy, fired first, and then arose quickly to see where he had hit. Just as he did so. Brown pulled the trigger of his own gun.

There ure many bulbs that are excellent for rockeries. Sclllas, which are of a beautiful deep blue, do well in the shade; spring suowflake, with white flowers tipped with green, and snowdrops are excellent for rockererle8. Muscarla or grape hyacinth, crocuse* of various colors, will thrive and take care of themselves once established In the rockeries or In borders In the garden, where they will not be disturbed. The beauty which Is near at hand Is often neglected for the prize that Is denied us—we refer to the beauty and desirability of the Celustrus, or bitter-sweet vine. This native climber found In our woods nnd along fences, Is oue of the most satisfactory vines that can be grown about the house. The Celastrus is as hardy as gran ite, a quick grower, twining securely about its support, and it is not liable to disease. In the fall when flowers are scarce, it covers Itself with clusters of orangecolored fruit which the frost opens, revealing its crimson seeds. Choose a dark, rainy day If possible, for the transplanting, otherwise do this work at sunset—we mean in transplanting seedlings. Water the seedbed thoroughly a short time before you begin to transplant; thy>n lift the plants, with all the soil their roots will hold, and remove to the permanent bed. Keep the seedling covered with a wet cloth, so that the heat and wind will not dry them. With a sharp pointed stick make the hole for the plant and then fill it with water. Plant the seedling in this puddle, drawing the dark soil about the stalk when the ground has been firmed about the plant as much as possible. ; A miniature water garden is practical and will prove most Interesting, needing less attention than a flower bed Its size. Have a sugar or vinegar barrel cut In two, or use a wooden tub. Sink this in the soil. Make a potting box about twelve Inches square and fill with rich mud from a pond, or use half rich loam, adding to the mud or loam about one-third of well-rotted Made Particularly Attractive by the Flo\A*vThro6gh Them. whatAvere striped before, at that time were of one color, and nearly single. $?[<* had Keyne's White for several yealai; It grew four feet tall; last year it grew eight and ten feet. A pianolike that Is no more good. Dahlias can be grown from seeds; they grow stronger than from cuttings and roots, only 1« is hard to find good seeds, now we are in the cheap-seed business; but the man who has u good article does not sell 25-cent packages for 10 cents. If you want dahlia roots for next year, plant them In small pots and let them remain all summer. Keep thera over winter like old roots, and start | them again In the spring. I do not l ^ay this Is absolute, but It Is the best | way to raise dahlias so far. 1 The specialist does it, and it is my ! experience since 18GT. ' It is claimed by dahlia growers that , dividing the roots will degenerate almost all varieties; that Is the reason we have so few good flowers. Of course, a good many will believe that^a cutting will not flower and | make roots to keep over winter, but it Is true; they were raised that way many years ago, and that is the way they are raised today In England, France, Germany and other countries except the United States. It is the reason, too, that the Americans do not care much for the dahlia; they have been deceived too much. They buy old roots and get an old, degenerate plant, sometimes six feet tall and more, and not a blossom in sight. In October, when the nights are cool, the degenerate shows buds, and if the frost does not catch them, they will flower, maybe two weeks, nnd the flower will be deficient In color and size. They blame the weather, etc.; it Is not the weather altogether, but the mode of planting. ; Plant the rymphae root in this and fclaCfrlfi the tub: fill with water until * It 1» two or three inches deep over the root When the growth commences and t o e leaves appear, water may be added from t'.me to time until the tab It MIL ltt*cr change the water, simply replace that which evaporate*. «to-k» THE WAY TOJttlSE GAHUAS ftrflffMftl BSAUTIEN, • good dtlitoa-iatttt bloom from July && feoat, i k d t f K does not, discard IK. 1 wm mm* bfeatlful flowers on ptoata te July and A o g w t very PLANTS WITHOUT SUN The best plants for sunless room* are ferns and palms and perhaps the best one of all is aspidistra.

London—Mackeaaen's army, striking at Bucharest from the Danube, has been defeated by the Russians and Rumanians southwest of the Rumanian capital, according to dlapatches from Petrograd and Bucharest. Successes en the Transylvania front are also claimed. The Germans in their retreat lost many prisoners and 26 gun:, according to the official reports from Rumanian and Ru&alan war offices. Berlin, in an official statement, stating that the Rumanians have made "a successful advance on the Argechu river, on the front before Bucharest" Bucharest Believed Saved. London sees in the victory the salvation of Bucharest, and in the first joy of success where only disaster waa expected, affects to discern the crushing of Teutonic hopes on the Danube and the saving of Rumania from the fate of Serbia. The turning of the battle is credited to the Russians, who, after all, it seems, arrived at the-'southern defenses of King Ferdinand's capital In time to turn back the powerful thrust of the Central nations which had swept up to the outer forts, only 12 miles from the suburbs. Teutons Continue Rush, While Ruaaian reinforcements, rushed to the aid of the Rumanians defending Bucharest, have succeeded in halting temporarily at least, Field Marshal von Mackensen'a drive against the capital, Von Falkenhayn's rush down upon the fortress from the northwest continues in the face of desperate Rumanian resistance. Falkenhayn's forces have reached Gaesci, 30 miles from Bucharest's outer fortifications. In a titanic eleventh, hour effort to avert a junction of the main forces of Mackensen and Falkenhayn, the Rumanians, aided by Muscovite troops, are offering battle on a front of some 50 miles, along the Argechu river. Balancing their defeat south of the capital, a Teuton flanking movement has crushed a Rumanian column In the same field, the Rumanian war office admits. ALLIES DEMAND REPARATION Firing Ceases and Entente Troops Are Withdrawn From Piraeus. Paris—Greece must make reparation to the Entente Powers for the recent attacks on the Allied troops. The ultimatum has been made to the Greek government, following the offer by the latter to turn over to Vice-Admiral Du Fournet six mountain batteries, according to a Havas dispatch from Athens. The ministers of the Allies have been instructed to inform the Greek authorities it is no longer a question of cession of war materials, but a far more serious situation, and that reparation must be madein accord with the gravity of the assault on the Allied troops. An embargo has been placed on Greek shipping in French and other ports of the Allies in consequence of the recent events in Athens. A Havas agency dispatch from that city says that firing ceased and the Entente troops have been withdrawn from Athens to the Piraeus. The Allies have agreed to remove their representatives, who have been in, control of the Greek postal and telegraph service. • The Matin states that Athos Romanes, Greek minister to France, has sent his resignation to his government, on account of the aggression of Greek troops against the forces disembarked by thr ^lies.

One day the fanner, who had kept his eye on the boy, smilingly said to the mother: "Just ask your boy why he hid two eggs in the stable." ' So the very first opportunity the « mother said to the six-year-old: "My dear, what did you do with those eggs you took from the henhouse?" "I hid them in the stable," answered the boy. "And what for?" asked his mother. " 'Cause it's my scheme." "Yottr scheme? And what is your scheme?"

The president said: Gentlemen of the Congress: In fulfilling at this time the duty laid upon me by the Constitution of communicating to you from time to time information of the state of the Union and recommending to your consideration such legislative measures as may t>e judged necessary and expedient 1 shall continue the practice, which I hope has been acceptable to you, of leaving to the reports of the several heads of the executive departments the elaboration of the detailed needs of the public service and confine myself to those matters of more general public policy with which it seems necessary and feasible to deal at the present session of the congress. I realize the limitations of time under which you will necessarily act at this session and shall make iny suggestions as few as possible; but there were some things left undone at the last session which there will now be time to complete and which it seems necessary in the interest of the public to do at once. In the first place, it seems to me imperatively necessary that the enrliesi possible consideration and action should be accorded the remaining measures of the program of settlement and regulation which I had occasion to recommend to you at the close of your last session in view of the public dangers disclosed by the unaccommodated difficulties which then existed, and which still unhappily continue to exist, between the railroads of the country and their locomotive engineers, conductors, and trainmen. Railway Troubles First I then recommended: First, immediate provision for the enlargement and administrative reorganisation of the interstate commerce commission along the lines embodied In the bill recently passed by the house of representatives and now awaiting action by the senate; in order that the commission may be enabled to deal with the many great and various duties now devolving upon it with a promptness and thoroughness which are, with Its present constitution and means of action, practically impossible. Second, the establishment of an eight-hour day as the legal basis alike of work and of wages in the employment of all railway employees who are actually engaged In the work of operating trains In interstate transportation. Third, the authorization of the appointment by the president of a small body of men to observe the actual results In experience of the adoption of the eight-hour day in railway transportation alike for the men and for the railroads. Fourth, explicit approval by the congress of tine consideration by the interstate commerce commission of an increase of freight rates to meet such additional expenditures by the railroads as may have been rendered necessary by the adoption of the eighthour day and which have not been offset by administrative readjustments and economies, should the facts disclosed justify the increase. Fifth, an amendment of the existing federal statute which provides for the mediation, conciliation, and arbitration of such controversies as the present by adding to it a provision that, in case the methods of accommodation now provided for should fail, a full public investigation of the merits of every such dispute shall be Instituted and completed before a strike or lockout may lawfully be attempted. And, sixth, the lodgment in the hands of the executive of the power. In ease of military necessity, to take control of such portions and such rolling stock of the railroads of the country a s may be required for military Me and to operate them for military purposes, with avtfeorlty to draft into the military service of the United States each train crews^md administratis* oflefais as the circumstances require for their enfe and efficient use. faeacMS MM Wecowwwewdatiotia. Tre second and third of these rec- MuueodetioB* the comrrrw immediately acted e n : It entaMlsbed the etghthoav dey at tawauaal aa*s of work suggestions until an opportunity should be offered for a more deliberate consideration of them. The fourth recommendation I do not deem it necessary to renew. The power of the Interstate commerce commission tp grant un Increase of rates on the ground referred to Is indisputably clear and a recommendation by the congress with regard to such a matter might seem to draw In question the scope of the commission's authority or Its inclination to do justice when there is no reason to doubt either. The other suggestions—the increase in the interstate commerce commission's membership and In its facilities for performing its manifold duties, the provision fdr full public investigation and assessment of Industrial disputes, and the grant to the executive of the power to control and operate the railways when necessary in time of war or other like public necessity—I now very earnestly renew. The necessity for such legislation is manifest and pressing. Those who have intrusted us with the responsibility and duty of serving and safeguarding them in such matters would find it hard, I believe, to excuse a failure to act upon these grave matters or any unnecessary postponement of action upon them. Not only does the Interstate commerce commission now find it practically impossible, with its present membership and organization, to perform Its great functions promptly and thoroughly, but it is not unlikely that it may presently be found advisable to add to its duties still others equally heavy and exacting. It must first be perfected as an administrative instrument. The country cannot and should not consent to remain any longer exposed to profound Industrial disturbances for lack of additional means of arbitration and conciliation which the congress can easily and promptly supply. And all will agree that there must be no doubt as to the power of the executive to make immediate and uninterrupted use of the railroads for the concentration of the military forces of the nation wherever they are needed and whenever they are needed. This is a program of regulation, prevention and administrative efficiency which argues its own case in the mere statement of it. With regard to one of its items, the Increase in the efficiency of the interstate commerce commission, the house of representatives \ l h a s nlready acted; Its action needs only the concurrence of the senate. For Control and Operation. I would hesitate to recommend, and I dare say the congress would hesitate to act upon the suggestion should I make it, that any man in any occupation should be obliged by law to continue in an employment which he desired to leave. To pass a law which forbade or prevented the Individual workman to leave his work before re- [ ceiving the approval of society in doing so would be to adopt a new principle into our jurisprudence which I take it for granted we are not prepared to Introduce. But the proposal that the operation of the railways of the country shall not be stopped or interrupted by the concerted action of organized bodies of men until a public Investigation shall have been Instituted which shall make the whole question at issue plain for the judgment of the opinion of the nation is not to propose any such principle. It is based upon the very different principle that the concerted action of powerful bodies of men shall not be permitted to stop the industrial processes of the nation, at any rate before the nation shall have had an opportunity to acquaint Itself with the merits of the case as between employee and employer, time to form its opinion upon an impartial statement of the merits, and opportunity to consider all practicable means of conciliation or arbitration. I can see nothing in that proposition but the justifiable safeguarding by society of the necessary processes of its very life. There is nothing arbitrary or unjust in it unless It be arbitrarily and unjustly done. It can and should be d'.n< with a full and scrupulous regard for the interests and liberties of all concerned as well as for the permanent interests of society itself, j •ttf3*n***V*i PINCKNEY DISPATCH • > . . - : \ • • • • - * * * . , • • : ? tions may seem to be leas necessary than the Immediate enactment of the other measures to which I refer; because at least two years will elapse before another election in which federal offices are to be filled; but it would greatly relieve the public mind if this Important matter were dealt with while the circumstances and the dangers to the public morals of the present method of obtaining and spending campaign funds stand dear under recent observation and the methods of expenditure can be frankly studied in the light of present experience; and a delay would have the further very serious disadvantage of postponing action until another election was at hand and some special object connected with it might be thought to be in the mind of those who urged It Action can be taken now with facts for guidance and without suspicion of partisan purpose. I shall not argue at length the desirability of giving a freer hand in the matter of combined and concerted effort to those who shall undertake the essential enterprise of building up our export trade. That enterprise will presently, will immediately assume, has indeed already assumed, a magnitude unprecedented in our experience. We have not the necessary instrumentalities for Its prosecution; it is deemed to be doubtful whether they could be created upon an adequate scale under our present laws. We should clear away all legal obstacles and create a basis of undoubted law for it which will give freedom without permitting unregulated license. Th< thing must be done now, because the opportunity Is here and may escape us if we hesitate or delay. Porto Rico's Needs. The argument for the proposed amendments of the organic law of Porto Rico is brief and conclusive. The present laws governing the island and regulating the rights and privileges of its people are not just. We have created expectations of extended privilege which we have not satisfied. There is uneasiness among the people of the island and even a suspicious doubt with regard to our intenticas concerning them which the adoption of the pending measure would happily remove. We do not doubt what we wish to do in any essential particular. We ought to do it at once. There are other matters already advanced to the stage of conference between the two houses of which it is not necessary that I should speak. Some practicable basis of agreement concerning them will no doubt be found and action taken upon them. Inasmuch as this is, gentlemen, probably the last occasion I shall have to address the Sixty-fourth congress, I hope that you will permit me to say witii what genuine pleasure and satisfaction I have co-operated with you in the many measures^of constructive policy with which you have enriched the legislative annals of the country. It has been a privilege to labor In such company. I take the liberty of congratulating you upon the completion of a record of rare serviceableness and distinction!'

The central purpose of the act Is to establish a form of warehouse receipt for grain, wool, flaxseed, cotton uLd j tobacco which will make these receipts easily and widely negotiable as delivery orders or as collateral for loans, and therefore of definite assistance in financing crops. This purpose the act aims to attain by licensing and bonding warehouses under conditions which will insure the integrity of the receipts and make them reliable evidence of the condition, quality, quantity and ownership of the products named which may be stored with them. Fifty-three Michigan counties, including Bay, Genesee, Jackson, Muskegon, Saginaw and a part of Kent county, have been placed in the district of which Detroit is the administrative headquarters. The Detroit district Includes all counties in the lower peninsula except Branch, Calhoun, Hillsdale, Lenawee and portions of Kent, Monroe, Ottawa and Washtenaw counties. All of Kent county is included in "this district except South Grand Rapids and points south of the Grand Rapids & Indiana railway, Eagle Mills and points south on the Lake Shore. All of Ottawa county Is Included except stations on the Pere Marquette railroad. All of Barry county is included except stations on the Michigan Central and Chicago, Kalamazoo & Saginaw railway. All of Washtenaw county Is Included except stations south of Pittsfleld on the Ann Arbor railroad. Portions of Kent, Barry and Ottawa counties excepted from the Detroit district are in the Chicago district.

As a result there is bound to be legislation introduced at the coming session of the legislature which will tend to curb the activities of Bre*r Reynard. Although attempts were made Inst winter and in the cold, wet days of the spring to protect the game birds, it has dawned on many hunters that the greatest destroyer of game, bird life in the north woods, or In any of the woods where the birds can live, is the red fox. Hunting parties this season, in the sections of the middle portion of the state, where partridge usually abound, return practically emptyhanded. And they blame it all on the fox. The state game department has had reports for months past to show that the fox steals the birds when they are young, and even In the winter time sneaks up on the old birds while they are roosting and makes away with them. Game wardens, some of them at least, have* reported that the destruction of partridge by foxes Is greater than the havoc caused either by the hard winters or by the guns of the hunters. The passage of a bm to place fox OB the Bat of animals to be killed at any time will not receive any opposition a t the hands of the state game onVtahi, Some of them go so far a s to sanction a bm making a bounty on fax payable by the state or the coonrJea. a s the law now reads la regard *o To Have Young Chief Justice. For 1917 the state supreme court will have one of the youngest chief justices In the history of Michigan— Hon. Franz Kuhn, formerly of Mount Clemens. Justice Kuhn will automatically become the head of the highest Judicial body in the commonwealth at high noon Monday, January 1, when he succeeds Justice John W. Stone of Marquette, who during 1916 has guided the destinies of the court. For 1917 the assignments will be made by Justice Kuhn. To his lot also will fall the administration of the oath of office to the newly elected governor, Albert E. Sleeper. Justice Kuhn will have served a s chief justice for a full month and several days before he will celebrate his forty-fifth birthday. In his career a s a lawyer, since his graduation front the law department of the University of Michigan, in 1804, he has arisen; rapidly. In the year of his graduation; he was made circuit court commissioner In Macomb county, which position he held for two years. Then he went up into the office of prosecutor. He served three terms and in 1904 was elected probate judge of Macomb county and re-elected In 1908. He resigned, however, in 1910 when Governor Warner appointed him attorney general to succeed John E. Bird, who had been elevated to the supreme bench through the resignation of Justice Robert M. Montgomery to accept' a position on the United States court of claims. Filling out the unexpired term of Mr. Bird, Attorney General Kuhn was elected to succeed himself, then was appointed to the supreme bench In 1912 by Governor Osborn, to take the place made vacant by the death of Justice Charles E. Blair. P. M. Plan .Up to Board.

Now I've got to get Into waterproofs—It's raining like all get-out, but I can't wait for a letup." By the time Whitaker was ready for breakfast his host had splashed off to his motor car. The wind, freshening and driving very respectable if miniature rollers against the beach, came In heavy gusts, alternating with periods of steady, strong blowing. At times the shining lances of the rain seemed to drive almost horizontally. Whitaker poked his head Into the kitchen. In that immaculate place, from which every hint of breakfast had disappeared as if by magic, Sum Fat was religiously cleaning his teeth—for the third time that morning, to Whltaker's certain knowledge. When he had finished, Whitaker put a question: "Sum Fat, which way does the wind blow, do you know?" Sum Fat flashed him a dazzling smile. "East'ly," he said In a cheerful, clucking voice. "I think vely fine three-day blow." "At least," said Whitaker, "you're a high-spirited prophet of evlL I thank you." He selected a book from several shelves stocked with a discriminating taste, and settled himself before the fire. The day wore out before his patience Jld, and with every indication of fulfilling the prognosis of Sum Fat; by nightfall the wind had developed Into an enthusiastic gale, driving before it sheeted rain and great ragged wastes of mist. And the second day was like unto the first The third day broke full of the spirit of the second; but toward noon the rain ceased. In the evening, weary of the sedulous attentions of a cloud of famished mosquitoes, Whitaker sat fn darkness, not tired enough to go to bed, too tired to bestir himself and seek distraction from a tormenting train of thought A pool of limpid moonJlcfet lay like milk upon the floor beneath a window and held his dreaming game while mem- Of the 70 kinds of birds existing In New Zealand, 30 are found nowhere else, and of this number by far the larger portion Is flightless; this, no doubt owing to the fact that for ages, ever since the sea swallowed up a conpageant of wasted years. Infinitely desolate and dreary in his vision. How long he sat unstirring, preoccupied with fruitless inquiry, he did not guess. But later he reckoned it could not have been long after ten o'clock when he was disturbed. The sound of a footfall, hushed and stealthy on the veranda, roused him with a start and almost at the same Instant he became aware of a shadow that troubled the pool of moonlight the foreshortened shadow of a man's head and shoulders. He sat-ap, tense, rigid with surprise and wonder, and stared at the silhouetted body at pause just outside the window. The fellow was stooping'to peer in. Had Drummond hunted him down to this isolate hiding place? On the thought he leaped up, in two strides slammed out through the door. "I s a y T he cried loudly. Bat be cried, apparently, to empty air. The man was goafr-vsalshed as strangely and as, quietly as he had appeared. Pausing and glaring round the dearbig in complete bewilderment he detected or else fancied a slight movemeat la the shadows on the edge of the woodland. Instantly, of ta« risk he ran tf the If gaMy of the tear nights old. Wattaker broke far too spot - i t proved t o bo tbo onto •*» of abruptly Into the clearing of the Flake place. Here he pulled up, for the first time alive to the intrinsic Idiocy of his conduct and diverted besides by the discovery that his Impression of the early evening, that the cottage was tenanted, had been well founded. The ground floor windows shone with a dim but warm Illumination. He could see distinctly part of a living room rather charmingly furnished in a summery way. At Its farther end a darkhaired woman In a plain black dress with a short apron and lace cap sat reading by lamplight—evidently a maid. Her mistress—judging- by appearances— was outside on the lawn below the veranda, strolling to and fro In company with a somewhat short and heavy man who wore an automobile duster and vtsored cap. By contrast, her white-clad figure, invested with the illusion of moonlight seemed unusually talL Her hair was fair, shining like a headdress of palest gold as she bent her head, attentive to her companion. And Whitaker thought to discern an unusual quality in her movements, a quality of charm and a grnciousness of mien rarely to be noticed even In the most beautiful of the women he had known. Of a sudden the man paused, produced a watch from beneath his duster, consulted it brielly and shut the case with a snap. He said something In a brusque tone, and was answered by what sounded like a pleasant negative. Promptly, as Lf annoyed, he turned and strode hastily away, disappearing round the house. Alone, the woman watched hi in as long as he was in sight, her head to one side with an effect of critical amusement Then, with a low laugh, she crossed the veranda and entered the lighted room. At the same time Whitaker,. lingering and watching without In the least understanding or even questioning why he was doing this thing so cohtraryto his instincts, heard the heavy rumble of a motor car on the far side of the house and saw the machine swing off across the clearing Into the woods. In the living room the woman was saying: "You may go now, Ellse. I'll be ready for bed before long." "Yes, madam." The maid rose and moved briskly out of eight Her mistress, casting aside a scarf of embroidered Chinese brocade, stood for a moment In deep thought, her head bowed, the knuckle of a slender forefinger tapping her chin—charmingly posed. Whitaker abruptly understood why It was he loitered, peeping— she was absolutely beautiful, a creature both exquisite and superb, a matchless portrait for the galleries of his memory. MANY BIRDS UNABLE TO FLY; Something—a movement or a slight sound—had drawn bis attention from the woman. He saw the other man standing boldly in full moonlight all his attention concentrated on the brilliant picture framed by the window. He was unquestionably without knowledge of the nearness of the other—of Whitaker in the shadows. And though his back wua to the nroon and his face further shadowed by a peaked cap, Whitaker was absolutely sure of the man—he was certainly Drummond. Without pause for thought he sprang toward him. in a guarded voice uttering his name—"Drummond 1" But the fellow proved too alert and quick for him. Whltaker's hands closed on nothing more substantial than thin air; at the same time he received a blow upon his bruised shoulder smart and forcible enough to stagger him and evoke an in* Don't Neglect Kidneys Swamp-Root Dr. Kilmer's Prescription, Overcomes Kidney Trouble He Sat Up Tense, Rigid With Surprise. voluntary grunt of pain. And before he could regain his balance the fellow was thrashing noisily away through the woodland underbrush. Forthwith he struck off and blunc'ertl senselessly through the forest misled by its elusive phantasmagoria, until, realizing at length he did but duplicate an earlier folly, he gave up the chase in disgust and slowly made his way back to the bungalow. It is now conceded by physicians that the kidneys should have more attention as they control the other organs to a remarkable degree and do & tremendous amount of work in removing the poison* and waste matter from the system by filtering; the blood. The kidneys should receive some assistance when needed. We take leas exercise, drink less water and often eat more rich, heavy food, thereby forcing the kidneys to do more work than nature intended. Evidence of kidney trouble, such as lame back, annoying bladder troubles, smarting or burning, brickdust or sediment, sallow complexion, rheumatism, maybe weak or irregular heart action, warns you that your kidneys require help immediately to avoid more serious trouble. An ideal herbal compound that has had most remarkable success as a kidney and bladder remedy is Dr. Kilmer's Swamp- Hoot. There is nothing else like it.

Stpwart noticed a goodsized catfish floating downstream, a Statesville (N. C.) correspondent of the New York Sun writes. The nsh was very much alive and was In much commotion, apparently trying to go under water and for some reason unable to. Mr. Stewart was Interested and he got htB boat, went out on tlte river and captured the fish. He put it In a tub of water and found that It wouldn't sink. This led to further examination and Mr. Stewart says he found the fish had swallowed a large quantity of wheat—having access to the wheat as a result of the recent floods—the wheat grains had swelled so the fish couldn't digest thera and altogether that gorge of wheat had put that fish In a bad fix. He not only could not go under the water, but he was doubtless suffering much "misery" on his inside*.

But out of the desolation are now coming 'dies that shall add much to the knowledge of the present concerning the day In which the prophet wrote.

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

WHAT WKLLWTHAV* TO iATf Those who have once tried tuna t fish will always be a friend of It, It lacks the fishy taste of the ordinary canned fish, making it most accept able for salads and various dishes. - Ttwa v Pleh; Take one capful ot shredded tuna, a threefourths of a enpful of boiled salad dressing, one-half of an envelope of gelatine, one-fourth of a cupful of water, onehalf cupful of chopped celery, one green pepper chopped, one-half tea* spoonful of salt and one-fourth tea* spoonful of paprika. ' Soak the gelatine in the cold water* then add i t with ail the other ingredients, to the hot salad dressing. Turn into individual molds that have been dipped in cold water. When molded turn out on crisp lettuce leaves. Sponge Pudding.—Take one and one-half cupfuls of milk, four tablespoonfuls of flour, a pinch of salt and cook together until thick. Add two tahlespoonfuls of sugar and when cooled a little the. yolks of three eggs well beaten. Fold In the beaten whites .and bake in a buttered baking dish until well puffed. Serve with the hard sauce above.

Steam five hours and serve with an egg or hard sauce.

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

Unjted States did not suggest in advance that It might have something concrete to propose in the way of limitation of armaments. The suggestion was, apparently, that the State, War and Navy departments had been asleep. . It seems that these, writers should have. known that sanity of thought suggested that the United States, having called the conference, must of necessity, in order to make it a success, have something to propose at the outset in the way of reduction of armaments. No Cause for Resentment There were British subjects in Washington who were not connected with the conference In an official capacity who felt some resentment that the American secretary of state should propose, such a plan, without so much as a courteous preparation of the minds of the British and the Japanese delegates to receive i t It is likely now that most of these visiting foreigners who ' were* in an early mood of resentment have had another thought on the subject. It is generally believed here that the British and the Japanese delegates knew that something concrete was coming from Secretary Hughes, and while they did not know its exact nature, they were not dynamited out of their seats by surprise when the "explosive" proposal came. Something over a month ago the ^British prepared a navy reduction plan of their own. It was not in tended, of course, for presents the conference because the United States being the inviting nation, the British looked to us to take the initiative. But the plan was ready as a basis for comparison with any plan which was offered. This proves that the British knew something of the kind was coming and were ready to meet- it. It con he said with definite- Furs lasting fa* years;>tthout reover again among the better things. And as for the matter of eapes! Well, they are more popular than they ever have been before. There seems to be no such idea as going out of fashion included In their scheme of existence. But the shorter furs are used to trim all manner of materials. There is a particularly Interesting coat of purple homespun trimmed with lavish collars and cuffs of moleskin, which is one pair, so o^eolalks4 ano^farji altvef^^«)ato the combination is seen over and wey under certain circamstances, but when one views the changes in fashion la > this department of women's attire, the possibilities of variety become perfectly astounding. This year, writes a fashion authority in the New York Times, the gorgeoasness - of furs and fa* trimmings and fur linings appear to know no limitation, and it would seem as though the American woman had decided to be as luxurious and comfortably coated as aha could possibly manage to be, ;0f course, sgtl; this has to be Judged by What the shops are showing and by what the women are buying. But at the salons of the leading furriers there Is nothing to Indicate the least falling off of fur buying or a tendency to wear handsome, not to mention costly, furs 4. furrier who in the course of his business had become used to the costliness of words as well as to the value of the products which he was selling, safd: "Now here is a cheap mink wrap. This is something that we are selling in quantities and which the American women are showing their preference for." "And what is the retail price of that?" said I, hopefully. It looked so much the sort of thing that would complete my dream of life. He scratched his head and pondered for a brief moment "That," he said, "would retail for only about $3,Q00." So, there is the standard, If you are thinking about furs, though there are other prices lower on the scale as well as those which soar and soar until they sound like the figure* in a war loan. Fifty thousand dollars paid for an evening wrap of fur has been known to happen, and not as a single occurrence either, for it has been repeated often. • Caracul Is Popular, a standard in fashionable furs is nothing with more claim to tge than caracul. In almost all of [he known ways in which fur is ever usedejthls variety makes its appearance, and as far as its youthfulness and becomingness are concerned it has everything in its favor.

France's .View Interesting. Today It seems that the French opinion of the proposed navy scrapping program Is the most interesting, because the French look at sea power matters from a point aloof. X think I may safely say that what follows Is substantially the French view: "The peoples of the world will reupond from their hearts to the-preposal for an actual beginning of limitation of armaments. They once waited for America to declare herself, and later powerfully to act in war. They know America's achievement after she once had made the war proposal. They know that her achievement in peace will 1>e Just as great now that she has made known her plan to blaze a trail which will lead to the goal which the masses seek. 'The words used by Secretary Hughes meant action. When once three great nations unselfishly strip themselves of much of their armor the lesson must reach even the peoples of those lands whose leaders still may be aggressively Inclined. They also will so strip themselves. There is no nation that does not look today, as during the years of war, to America for moral leadership. "America has struck bodly.

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

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

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

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

Hugh looked bewildered. "The point; Mr. Peterson? Er—by all manner of means," v Peterson smiled even more affably. "I felt certain that you were a young man of discernment/' he remarked, "and I wouldn't like to keep you from your paper a minute longer than nee* essary.",. v "Not s bit." cried Hugh.

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

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

whom nothing escapes, is said to be Arguseyed The Impli cation is usually that one is of a suspicions nature, and this element Is quite in keeping with the origin of the expression The term comes to us from the parlance of mythology Argus being the creature of B hundred eyes who never went to sleep with more than two at s time He is familiar chiefly as the tool of the goddess Juno, who was al ways suspicious of her husband, Jupi ter, and who used Argus to watch bin It was his zealousness In watching Io, Jupiters mistress, whom the cod surprised by his wife, bad turned into a heifer, that at last brought Argus to crief Jupiter, troubled ot the distress of To who in the guise of a heifer, had been gven by Juno into tnTTcustody of Juno, enlisted Mereury to put Argus out of the way Leaping fro the heavenly towers to earth Mercury, disguised as a shepherd driving his flock, charmed Argus with the music of his Pandean pipes In vntn, however, did he try to lull the watchful eyes to sleep, until finally, with a supreme effort, he related to Argus the story of how the pipe upon which he played was Invented The fantastic story, accompanied by a plaintive melody from the instrument, at last caused the hundred eyes to close at once, and as Argus nodded forward for a moment Mercury cut off his head Copyright By MARTHA MARTIN nighttime and they had frozen and were strong, substantia

also possessing certain magical quaJI ties of its own As witness the divining by shoes, the significance Of having one foot shod and the othtr not, the putting of magical herbs into shoes and the

do, but any cracks near the floor or directly around the rooata particularly are to be avoided These should by all neana be covered Cracks around the entrance door are a very common oc currence and one may often find the birds coddled op in a farcorner in an effort to keep warm By putting weather strips on the doors the pooltry men easily eliminate this problem After the three aides are tightened op, the front may be kept reasonably open At a role, however, it ia best to have about equal proportioua of glass and muslin in front, and the two combined may take up about one half of the front surface of the bouse The spaces between the rafters above the plate may also be kept open The muslin curtains should be closed at night and never opened on stormy daya or even in the early morning or late evening The house Bhould alwaya feel comfortable when one en tera it Many poultrymen have found that the glass substitute products have been very satisfactory They admit much more light than the mus lin, and also keep the house warmer Ventilation through the rafter spaces at the eaves Is usually sufficient to keep the birds in good health With the sides and front well taken care of, the only possible cause for drafta would be a long bouse without partitions To overcome the tend ency for the wind to sweep in one end of such a house and out the other, It is well to build partitions every 40 feet These should extend to the roof and come up to within three feet of the front of the house, or if de sired, a door may be fitted Into this threefoot space, making the partition solid Partitions in the roosting quar ters only should be built every 20 feet Forcing Maturity of Pullets Is Mistake It is a mistake to force the maturity of pullets with large amounts of milk or meat, warns 0 C Ufford, extension poultry, specialist, Colorado Agricultural college A pullet should have a good bedy growth before she starts laying An undersized pullet seldom makes a profitable ben Small amounts of milk or meat should be used to produce normal growth, but it Bhould not be overdone Feed plenty of grain, part of It ground, along with milk or meat Once pullets have begun to lay, Mr Ufford continues, the milk or meat should be gradually increased, aslt Ja part of the ration necessary to produce eggs If there is a deficiency of animal protein In the ration, production will graduolly decline and fall molt result Gradually allow the birdsall the milk they will drink, 01 if milk is not available brlnj the amount of meat scrap up to 20 per cent of the ground

Halpln of the Uni versity of Wisconsin at the Ohio poultry day at Wooeter, Ohio, is that the hatchability and food value of eggs may be changed with the type of feed given Professor Halpln asserted that the time will come when people will, demand that eggs for their children shall not cone from hens with rickets It is, as he said, generally agreed that en listen are benefited by cod liver oil especially during the winter months But it Is unnecessary to compel the children to take cod liver oil rhen It might as well be fed to the chickens In the first place, and the quality of the eggs improved to over come the deficiency Hopper Spate Standing in line for their feed is objectionable to bens, and, furthermore, they will not do thIr best when forced to do this, says B H Alp, poultry extension specialist of the college of agriculture, University of Illinois Hence the value of a good egg mash often Is limited by the hopper in which it is fed he said Feeding space for all hens at all times Is the rule that should be kept in mind In building a poultry feed hopoer, he recommended IP Too have the Ideaand eant get rid of itthat youre working for a lightweight omAt, yoed better

organisation You hurt the organisation, too, of course, but yoo loosen the rein on your selfrestraint, fix upon yourself a lax and dangerous bablt and decrease the value of the only thing you have to sellyour efficiency The good clerb realties the value of discipline in the sales organiza tion He knows that no organisation can succeed unless all its members do their work together along some well defined plan Therefore, the good clerb does his share by conforming to that plan, and he recognises every rule as a part of it Thus, the good clerk becomes a better clerk and increases the efficiency of the entire staff You may break a rule today and get away with it And you might duplicate the feat tomorrow or next week But een so you will have gained nothing of real value and in the end you will have lost Just a tittle of efficiency, Just a little of self respect, Just a little of your employers regardand a very considerable amount of character A retail clerb who observes the store rules is

various kinds, let it be known that you have a savings bank account or food securities and you will be the object of a very rigorous campaign to relieve you of those sav lngs It is always Well to remember that the irresponsible promoter specialises on swindling savings depositors, exchanging his fake investment for their bank account, which is always worth 100 cents on the dollar Of the numerous bait schemes used to swindle the public the trading of equities in real estate is among the most successful from the promoters standpoint From the owners standpoint a trade usually means getting into deep er water financiallygoing further Into debt Heres how it works If you have an equity in a piece of property, which equity you would like to be relieved of, some promoter will offer to give you credit tor your equity on the purchase price of another piece of property or on the purchase of certain hot air stocks In the first place, the swindler actually allows you nothing for your equity as he marks up the price of what he is selling you a like amount with the result that you lose your equity on one hand and get yourself Into a less desirable deal on the other Proceed slowly, if you are ap proached with a proposition to trade an equity It may not be exactly what you prefer, but holding the equity is far ahead of holding the sack after some swindler has dealt with you Vm i4

rather the practitionit of an artthe art of bringing joy o the hearts of little children and jmiles to pinched, wan faeos blanch ed with pain Every medical convention, no mat er where, sends him a wire or a greeting by a returning doctor It is stated on competent authority that ie knows personally a larger number of distinguished medical men than any other living person Certain it is that he can relate more personal anecdotes concerning the great doctors of this country than any other cnan in America Whence came this healer who is not a doctor, this confrere of surgeons who is not an anatomist, this fellowworker Qf scientists who never took a degree himself Fortynine years ago, Pat Scully came to the U of M hospital from a farm near Adrian, Mich, to undergo an operation When it was all over and the doctor said, Pat, you may go home tomorrow he startled tie hospital management by announcing h a musical Celtic yoke, Tm not going home Im going to stay here And stay there Pat Scully did While lying on his hospital cot he had seen a vision He saw the faces of little children farrowed by pain, and they called to him piteously to help them in their suffering In his wheel chair he had visited the childrens wards and talked to the little sufferers, And when hie case was ready for discharge his mind was made up He would stay at the hospitaland amuse the children, would scrub the floors, mow the lawns, do other useful tasks hot, chiefly, he would do all in his power to ease the suffering of the children by diverting their minds from their afflictions He was only a layman, bnt he had a great, horny hand that was as tender as that Of a mother His smile, his eyes and his voice wore charged with hope and assurance and his great love for children was bis ruling

to Draft President Coolidge, By EDWARD W PICKARD P ASTERN Republican, political md business leaders, cannot reconcile themselves to seeing President Coolidge eliminated from the contest for the nomination next year They never hare given up the Idea that he could be drafted by the convention, nd ahqnld be, despite his expressed reluctance to run again Last week they got very busy, especially in Wall street and in New England, with plans to posh the Coolidge boom In Bos ton a chain letter petition was started by some of those who believe Mr Coolidge should be virtually compelled to accept a renomination The White Rouse correspondents questioned the President on this matter and be told them he could not see that the circulation of the petition would serve any good purpose and he hoped it would be discontinued This being telegraphed over the country, the proponents of the chain letter Issued a statement asking that all work on the plan cease Immediately However, the correspondents left the White House somewhat mystified and 4 as uncertain as ever in their interpre tation of the Presidents attitude toward the general proposition of conscripting him for another term Many Republican senators and representatives thought nothing had been added to the Coolidge statement of August 2 and that, while the President does not want another term and dees not want to be drafted, he nevertheless would not refuse to respond to the call If the party should ask him to sacrifice his personal Inclinations Others influential In the party believe he will not be a candidate under any circumstances The theory accounting for the sudden interest manifested by New York Republican leaders in the renominatlon of the President Is that they are becoming panic stricken over the dan ger of losing that state in the Presidential election That Al Smith will be the Democratic nominee is now generally taken for granted, particularly since dry Democrats have been teen throwing up the sponge in various parts of the country, and Smith has repeatedly shown his ability to carry New York state against great odds Unless Mr Coolidge absolutely rejects a renomlnation before congress meets on December 5 the antithird term agitation will be renewed, and Senator La Follette will reintroduce his resolution declaring a President should not serve more than eight years Frank 0 Lowdens boom grew somewhat with the authorised announcement that his name would be entered In the Indiana preferential primary Dawes, it was understood, would not contest the delegation with the former governor of Illinois, and Senator Watson, who has been credited with Presidential ambitions, was advised emphatically by his friends to stay out of the race The Lowden boomers de clare their man will enter the

corporations with earnings of less than 125,000 from 2,000 to 3,000 C HICAGO won a big victory In the battle over diversion of water from Lake Michigan through the Chicago sanitary canal Charles Evans Hughes, special master for the United States Supreme court, recommended to that tribunal that the case brought by Wisconsin and other states bordering on the Great Lakes be dismissed After holding that the complainants had presented justifiable contro versy and that the sanitary district has no authority to divert the water without the consent of the United States, Judge Hughes declared that congress has conferred authority upon the secretary of war to regulate the diversion, and that the permit of March 3, 1925, Is valid and effective according to its terms, the entire control of the diversion remaining with congress Therefore he recommended that the bill be dismissed T AX laws were materially clarified by the Supreme court In Its interpretation of numerous questions which had

for good dressing as ever has been presented to women A perfect ensemble will transform a woman from me diocrity to distinction When Parisian designers design accessories they have in mind a perfect costume on which these are to furnish high lights, decorative, colorful and chic Consider the Callot shawl, a circular shawl of gold lace that reaches the hemline of the short skirt, certainly a shawl

cry of American women for what they term new modes The mode, says the Parisian couturier, no longer, consists for me of anything more than the best muuner of draping a given fabric over H given woman,

Christmas comes but once a year What if one should feel logy tomorrow It Is worth It To everybodys surprise, the tall clock in the hall booms twelve And the folks say goodnight and go to bed You go up to your roomthe room you always have had and always will have The lights are on There is a cheery fire on the hearth The bedclothes are turned down and your pajamas laid out Your mother has been there You close the door and look around There is the chlffonnler that your father gave you for a birthday pres ent And paper on the wall, you picked it out yourself with your mother and you and she selected the carpet There is the tierack which Cousin Marjorie gave you, made of embroidery hoops covered with red satin You go over to the closet and peer in Your shotgun is right where you left it You think of what Chuck Andrews said about the wild turkeys and the quailOh, boy There is a tap at the door Your mother comes in I Just wanted to tell my boy goodnight You and she sit down on the edge of the bed and talk then she says, Now you must go to bed and get some rest and she hugs and kisses you and goes out You step to the window and raise the sash The full moon is shining as only a Southern moon can shine The air is frosty and perfectly still Far off a dog Is barking You bear a cow lowing softly A rooster, fooled by the moon, crows for daylight Down in the village the chimes ring out from Matlin tower Lord, through thla hour be Thou my guide That in Thy power X may abide You put down the window, undress, and climb into those pajamas thai your mother has laid out You extinguish the light And the next thing you know you are on yew knees by the side of the bed You have bean skipping that sort of thing lately You crawl in between the sheets and snuggle your head into

Yean WITH the wartime expansion in America, the greater postwar costs if nigrdi1i and soppHca and the higher wage levels, etc, die inifasrrisJisr, the dsstnmor and the consuming public, now require a more expedited service tor freight than at any time, anywhere file THIS meant that the speed expected of the railroads in tiamdWsig of all freight new isalmost the former standard of express service

and men soon realized their economic advantage Tremendous outlays vcments and betterments gave these an added incentive in the followed the dojse of the war New records are being made aimnsjflr and the good that flows from these is reflected in the greater prosperity that every class that makes up our society now enjoys THE railroad traffic unit the ton of freight is traveling more miles each day than ever THE additional mileage made by each ton of freight per diem meant that the manufacturer can utilize his plant to greater advantage by clearing his shipping room regularly and carrying a smaller inventory in bis stock mu The A distributor at destination can likewise carry on business with a smaller inventory inasmuch as he is always certain of regular deliveries The manufacturer puts through his bills of lading at the bank several days earlier than before and so his capital is turned over oftener ALL of these conditions mean benefits to every stratum of society THE railroad 7worker is paid higher wages for his services, since die railroads are doing more work and their unit of cost makes this possible THE consumer of commodities finds that prices are kept down to a lower level than would otherwise obtain THE business man, who ventures into modern business, can carry on with a smaller capital ALL, therefore, share in the benefits of the accelerated freight service

Therefore by hauling 200 or 800 miles their mffir costs less than that hauled only 40 or 60 miles The Gordon Co which owns the Pinckney creamery found it more profitable to close down haul their milk

the fact incredulous people believe we are just good guessers with no foundatkm of fact We base oar conclusions of the weather changes en different positions of planets and moon in relation to the son, the prime force of all life on this earth The accompanying chart graphically shows the different influences working during the dates of the present week For the week beginning December 4th we find Neptune, Jupiter, Mars and Mercury all playing their part in the weather for the week All except Mercury are supposed to produce drylag and evaporating qualities, which wffi surely show out during the week Ott the other hand, Mars and Jupiter reimg simultaneous will help to kill the heating effects, chilling the moist air produced by Mercury and thus cause condensation in the form of rain or snow The heavy black line just above the dates and beneath all the planetary lines in the chart represents the tail end of a first quarter moon storm period Covering the early days of the week means that Michigan will be under the influence of this period on the dates specified We look for showers and snow flurries during early part of week with e high winds and change to much colder following Sunday or Monday Cold and , mostly fair weather will cover the greater part of Michigan until near the middle of the week The 8th of December, marked in heavy type, signifies an intermediate storm period will appear about that time In Michigan on this and the next date we may expect a change to warmer with storms of rain or snow and strong winds Immediately follow ing this condition temperatures will show a marked change downward and the week goes out considerably colder STORM CHART WMk of Docambtr 4 J z as mm TKe Wife By Lyle Hamilton Co Coferrifht, 1927, by Eugene

put Mary Holmquist in bed with a hotwater bag The poor kid way uaod up all in So we called Mrs Potter out into fie hall, and asked her what her maiden name was He stopped, a flicker of amusement in his eye She climbed right on my neck Wanted to know what I was asking fool questions for But I talked her into a good humor She was born in Pontiac and her name was Evangeline Decker Mr Frazier laid down his spoon Decker Was that her own name Thats what she said, Molly answered Thenbeing a womanshe asked Why Evangeline is right, muttered the man Then Frazier Molly and I3ob ,both were perplexed His remarks did not make sound sense Can you get her by telephone he asked Ill risk it Of course I can Molly said, rising He motioned her to sit down Give him the number, he said, nodding his head at the servant Hell call you when shes on the line Well, said Molly, you call she gave the numberand thafs a delicatessen store The lady there will send a boy to get Mrs Potter You have to wait a long time Sometimes you have to talk so central will think the lines in use and wont cut you off Rather complicated, isnt it inquired Mr Frazier, offering them the rack of toast He went ahead to talk of telephones and other casual things Despite the curiosity that burned in Mollys eyes, she did not ask him what he wanted with Mrs Potter When, at length, the man came to up to Pontiac looking for a baby, and they adopted ate Did you have a brotfcer My folks said there was onea year or two older than I was I never He arose and laid hie hand on her shoulder My name was Etfoa, toe Im your brother

angry, sir, Molly again started to her feet Please tell her Ill send my car for her, said Mr Frazier, and that it is urgent that she should come The matter required much argument, over the line But, please, Mrs Potter, Molly begged, Mr Frazier says its important Yes important to Mary Holmquist She didnt know that this was so, but she risked it Please come right away Mr Fraziers chauffeur will come for you and take you home She returned to the drawing room rather flustered Did she call me names asked her host, smiling Yes, Molly admitted, and at first she wouldnt come, but she says she

cornersprang to their feet when Mr Fraaier an nounced that Mrs Potter was is ownsister Involuntarily the three compared the features of the man and woman, facing one another there There was no doubt of the resemblance The strong nose and jaw of the man were reflected, more sharply, in Mrs Potters face The deepset eyes and the longlobed ears were identically of a pattern Whats the idea, Mr Potter persisted, of lying about your name He sat down again I was adopted, too, he said It v as a family by the name of Frazier Poor people are more apt to adopt babies than rich ones and the Fraziers were poor They were so poor that they had to let me go, before I was old enough to start to school So I went to an or phanage What did you do with the Fraziers after you grew up Let em slide, I suppose Mrs Potter crossed her legs and rested her elbows on the arms of the chair, the more comfortably to pursue the conversation No, I didnt He spoke with some impatience Theyre very old people now, living on a farm that I bought for them Molly and oBb had left their sea and had found places on the huge leather cushion, in order to be nearer to the center of this family drama Little Swedie, sighing, had dropped back into her own remote chair Howd you find out about me Mrs Potter asked By accident, he said When I was hunting for Miss Holmquists husband, I was in the town where you used to live, you know The old village marshal knew I came from Pontiac and asked me casually if I ever heard of Mrs, Bill Potter, said you were an orphan Well she prompted It made no impression at the time, but later, on my way home with the young man, I got to thinking Your mannerthe way you speak, is very much like my own, We take the hide off, she agreed I remembered that, he continued, and then I remembered that our features are a little alike WOTTC luridsaidshe He smiled Yes, indeed Mrs Potter bristled instantly What do you mean by that Nothing, my dear Evangeline exrcpt that you are unfortunate to look like me, he explained hastily But I was going to saywhen I was in my twenties I searched for you sevacknowledged her employers greeting eral years I was beginning to be and sank into a chair in the

What do you want, anyway, rousing me out on Sunday morning The man drew a chair to her side, and sat down I think I have news of importance to you, but Im not sure Mr and Mrs Brownell asked you a couple of questions for me I thought it was some of your impertinence, she said What Busf ness is Jt of yours what my maiden name was A great deal, he answered Was Decker your real name Was that the

Likely enough And Id have fought with your wife and your children would have hated me and Id have made you lend money to Bill Potter for me to spend wed have stopped speaking years ago, she concluded Its better this way Anyhow, we cant go back and try it all over again, he said When can you leave your flat and move in Leave my flat She hlinked Move here She looked around the in her own thoughts that she did not hear Molla friendly goodbye Did you ever see such a queer reunion Molly asked Bob as they drove off in their own car Im glad for Mrs Potter he said Shes as kindhearted a soul as ever lived, and shes had a rough time Old Fraerll have a rough time now, his wife predicted I wonder if shell keep oik calling him Frasee They spent the remainder of the day in the country, driving leisurely along the byroads to escape the holiday crowds They stopped at a sand wich shop by the wayside for a bite to eat and a bottle of pop, which they shared between them, and just at dark they arrived at their own little apartment It looks awf uWy plain and bare beside Fraziers place, Molly said as they entered Its ours, he said, giving her a lovely squeeze But I wish it was nicer Their noonday sandwich had been taken long before, and they were hungry Molly rummaged in the kitchen and found a can of corn and another of tomatoes, and some boiled potatoes ready for frying Will this do she asked Lets go to a restaurant, he proposed, looking over the provisions that she had laid out on the kitchen table I feel as if I hadnt had a square meal in a week I dont think we ought to, she said I had to draw money from the bank yesterday, and theres the rent coming dueIll hurry and heat these things up They ougnt to be all right They talked until late, sitting at the dining table over the vegetables that Molly had warmed Both were curious over Mrs Potter, and what changes she would make in Mr Fraziers home They agreed that Bobs employer was undergoing a great risk in inviting his sister to live with him And, Molly said, Mary Holmquist will have to hunt another room She has lots of bad luck, hasnt she Before noon naxt day, however, news came ot little Swedie, not quite so bad as Molly had eared It was Bob who told it over the telephone Do you know what Mrs Potter He wantedthat thousand for he in quired She wanted it for Mary Yep She came waltzing into the office about ten oclock I asked her if she wanted to see her brother and she told me to attend to my own busi ness Then she went right to where Swedie was sitting and handed her a big rolls of bills The whole office stopped and watched And she told Swedie to pay back Frazier his five hundred and pay for her clothes that sheawes for and keep the rest as a nestegg And Swedies head went down on her desk and she cried as if her heart would break I never heard anything like it in a my life h4wifannouneedr She was still thinking deeply of Mary Holmquist and her thousand coming hard she had copied two pagan, and from then on until five oclock she scarcely paused The villain was such a cold devil sneerinng in the heroines face every time she prayed for release And he was so handsome in his blackeyed, darkcomplexioned way, and the heroine was so helpless The only thing that Molly didnt care for in the story was that the heroine was a blonde She mentioned this to Mrs Buck, just before she left for the day The girl who got the thousand dollars is a blonde, and the story keeps reminding me of her, she said I dont think these light Wondes make such good heroines Do you Well, she has to be a blonde

Michigan Modern Robin Hoods shooting biff bows and steel tipped arrows at galloping deer are having a duel with hunters using rifles in the woods at Blaney park With the state recognizing the primitive bow and arrow as a legitimate weapon for hunting bock deer, a 6,000acre tract of reforested land at Blaney was set aside for the exclusive use of archers who wish to draw a long bow against the big bucks This archery preserve, the only one of its kind in the middle west, lies next to another large tract of land in which a limited number of rifle shooters can bag their bucks with rifles and bullets One stand of wire separates these dueling grounds and expert archers will attempt to how that the more primitive and quieter weapon is capable of bringing home the meat almost as efficiently and with even more sport than the modem rifle The 6,000 acres of forest which has been set aside for the bow and arrow hunters was especially selected for this typo of hunting The area Ls covered with second growth timber, has many tote roads and trails through it, and a number of fairly open spots so that the bow and arrow huntsmen can execute their shots without interference from thick brush To make sure that this preserve and other adjacent hunting areas at Blaney are not invaded by pothunters the owners of the land have an air patrol A plane carrying a pilot and observer takes to the air several times each day during the season to inspect the shooting grounds, maintaining contact with a warden force om the ground and sig hted One of the leu facias the nriaeralogist,

Professor Walter F Hunt of the University of JtVWgm and Professor C K Wentforth of George Washington University The mineralogist must frequently determine the makeup of reek, and to do so he cuts a section so thin as to be tranlucent and mounts it at, a microscope slide In the past he than mounted a screen of known dimensionsunder the slide and computed one at a time the amount of feldspar, mica, quartz and other rock crystals scattered in the sample, a laborious eyestraining process With the new apparatus a platform bearing the specimen slide is moved across the line of vision, driven by five dial marked screw grips This way five of the component mineral crystals may be read straight across the specimen at one time, by giving one dial to each, and by reading off each dial the size of the crystal as measured by the turns required to bring it clear across the sample The dials register to five thousandths of a millimeter and one millimeter is about four hundredths of an inch, so

continued to hold the lead among all other commercial species, fishermen reporting taking 8,453,338 pounds For three years whitefish have led the list in the number of pounds taken This is true for the fist time since 1889 according to the Fish Divis ion and is being largely attributed to the use of deep water trap nets In some instances, it is claimed, entire areas have been depleted of whitefish through the use of these nets, and regulation of the use of the nets is beiig urged The 1931 whitefish crop had an estimated value of 1,183,467 While the herring ranked next to the whitefish

shooting big bows and steel tipped arrows at galloping deer are having a duel with hunters using rifles in the woods at Blaney park With the state recognizing the primitive bow and arrow as a legitimate weapon for hunting buck deer, a 6,000acre tract of reforested land at Blaney was set aside for the exclusive use of archers who wish to draw a long bow against the big bucks This archery preserve, the only one of its kind in the middle west, lies next to another large tract of land in which a limited number of rifle shooters can bag their bucks with rifles and bullets One stand of wiro separates these dueling grounds and expert archers will attempt to show that the more primitive and quieter weapon is capable of bringing home the meat almost as efficiently and with even more sport than the modem rifte The 6,000 acre of forest which has been set aside for the bow and arrow hunters was especially elected for this typo of hunting The aiva is cov ered with second growth timber, has many tote roals and trails through it, and a number of fairly open spots so that the bow and arrow huntsmen can execute their shots without interference from thick brash To make sure that this preserve and other adjacent hunting areas at Blaney are not inaded by pothunters the ovners of the land have an air patrol A plane carrying a pilot and observer takes to the air several times

about onefifth of the time heretofore needed by a measuring guage perfected by Professor Walter F Hunt of the University of Michigan and Professor C K Wentforth of George Washington University The mineralogist must frequently determine the makeup of rock, and to do so he cuts a section so thin Us to be tranlucent and mounts it on a microscope slide In the past he then mounted a screen of known dimen sions under the slide and competed one at a time the amount of feMspatj mica, quartz and other rock crystals scattered in the sample, a laborious eyest raining process With the new apparatus a platform bearing the specimen slide is move across the line of vision, driven by five dial marked screw grips This way five of the component mineral crystals may be read straight across the specimen at one time, by giving one dial to each, and by reading off each dial the size of the crystal as measured by the turns required to bring it clear across the sample The dials register to five

TQ OPEN Pinckney will soon open her basket ball season There will be two teams in the field as usual here, the high school and independent The Inde pendents first game is with Chelsea here on Dec 17 The high school will probably not start their schedule until after Christmas but practise will start at once Both teams will have about all of last years team back The high school will have Kennedy, Dinkel, Meabon, Battle, Smith, Wilson, Read and Miller and the Inde pendents, Swarthout, Reason, Carr, Hickey, Hall, Gerycz, Shehan and Read This year the basket ball rules provide for four changes They are as follows 1 The ten second rule which is intended to eliminate stalling 2 The three second rule directed at the pivot play 3 The rules on blofcking 4 The rule governing face blocking The first rule is a big asset in speeding up the game on large courts in excess of 75 feet in length It stops stalling and kills the old delay ed offense The rule stops plays in the back court as the ball must be brought back across the center of the court within 10 seconds This forces the team with the ball to play ant offensive brand of ball and makes the game more of a race horse contest with more scoring in all probability The second rule provides that the pivot man, when in the foul line must rid himself of the ball within three seconds after receiving it This Pure bred Holstein cow that finished rule will also speed up the game con1 the highest record in Herd Improve HIGH SCHOOL y FOOTBALL BANQUET it Capt Murray Kennedy received it on behalf of the team Lucius Wilson, captain elect

this week The completed program is, now ready to be presented to farmers Meetings for this purpose will be held throughout the Stateduring the next few months Farmers will have all necessary information well in ad vance of the 1030 crop planting season so that they can make their plan accordingly In 1038 the farm act was passed by Congress on February H and the program was not available

the 500,000,000 annual appropriation authorized in the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938 and provided for continuing the soilbuilding prac tices which have been an essential k part of the AAA programs since 10 3f In addition to the conservation payments, 212,000,000 in price ad justment payments was authorized by the last Congress to be paid to wheat, corn, cotton, tobacco, and the rice producers NATIONAL ACREAGE GOALS The national acreage goal for 1039 is about 5,000,000 under that for 1938 This decrease was made necessary by the smaller wheat acreage allotment for 1039 as compared

Robert Hutchins of Chicago University whose team has been kicked around for years by the other college teans o such an extent that the Big Ten U talking of dropping therm for lack of draw ing power Hutchins would solve the oroblem by cutting the admission rue to big college games to 10c The football going public is only in terested in well played garws by a winning team composed of the best players in the countryThey would not go across the street to witness a game between medicor nluyers and that is what such games would be as the ten cent admission price would not bring in enough to develop good Learns No, the public demand the best available mil are willing to pay for it Enough signers have been secured to get the proposition on the ballot in April providing for the elect ion of

YORKThe other day, a brisk, dapper little old man stepped into a big Wall street investment banking office and asked wLUurant wlth oi In Scrimmage assurance He Again at 77 had QJX audience and came out full of business and stepping high A friend, who was doing business there that day, reports to me that the peppy visitor was William G Durant, twice head of General Motors, once the master of 100,000,000, and that, at the age of 77, Mr Durant was scouting new capital for another big tourney in motor finance My friend couldnt learn whether he got it, but said he had heard there was a deal on which might put Mr Durant on the main line again He said the little Napoleon of early day auto finance looked as if he were about to merge all companies and skim the cream It was in 1910 that the bankers crowded Mr Durant out of the pres idency of General Motors He was back in 1915 and out again in 1920, in the postwar crash, in which he jettisoned 90,000,000 of his own money, trying to stop the downslide of the stock He took his losses casually and was busy for years in daring market forays, but never quite converted any of his passes An acquaintance of this writer, who knew Mr Durant well, told me how he laughed off his second relinquishment of his motors kingdom I built the greatest automobile building in the world, at Detroit, he said, according to my informant, and when I did it, I fixed it so they wont soon forget me Hidden somewhere in every column and every capital and big stack of that building there is a deeply chiseled D There wasnt anything anon ymous about that job, and I took good care to leave my mark on it So did the king in Kiplings poem, when he was pulled off his big palace building job, when They said thy use is fulfilled He Carved on every timber and cut on every stone, and the poem concludes, After me cometh a builder tell him I, too, have known FOR several years, Dr Karl T 1 Compton, president of Massachusetts Institute of Technology and one of the nations greatest scientists, rr cManM has explored the ForSctence no man,fi land Government between an exCollaboration Pending govern ment and an expanding technology He thinks they ought to get together but he is no advocate of bureaucracy or extreme federalization He doesnt like the idea of the government getting on anybodys neck He thinks the government, with its vast resources, might be an invaluable collaborator with science, and should be, in fact, but he advances this idea warily, as he finds cxeativeness and social progress in the old American freeforall, without elaborate governmental trimmings He never claimed an Ivory tower, and sees the problem in its simple social components of Jobs, a rising standard of living, social progress and security He notes the jobkilling potentialities of the machine, in certain individual instances, and assesses industrial management with finding a corrective This qualified admission is in sharp contrast to the view of Dr Robert Andrews MLUikan, another distinguished scientist who has wrestled with the same problem Doctor Millikan is for throwing the throttle wide open, with the certainty that machines ultimately will make more jobs than they destroy Both, however, prescribe as a cure for our technological ills more of the hair of the dog that bit us The difference in view is that Dr Compton urges certain collective rationalizations and judicious self imposed controls by industry and management For many years Dr Compton has been blasting at the inner citadel of the atom to seise there the hidden golden key of umlim ited power which has long been the pie in the sky of the great physicists He batters down a rampart now and then, and, in the long view of the scientists, thinks that we may some day Up reservoirs of energy so vast that all oar present ills will be easily soluble therein He has headed M I T since 1930 Now rounding 50 He was head of the department of physics at Princeton before 1930, one of the most richly garlanded men of his profession in honors and records of achievement ConaoUdatod New Feature WNU Sorvlca m Santa Clans Really Has a Post Office litis is the doorway to Santa

twelve And what happened then A ear passed us, then slowed down Did you observe the number Yea, Miss Sentry said Never mind what she said What was the number Mrs Sentry thought They take so long to say such a simple thing Why doesnt he just say, X saw Mr Sentry leave his office and drive home But question and answer went maddeningly on What did you do Followed the car to the Sentry home Where did you last see it It turned into the Sentry drive What did you do Miss Sentry and I stayed in my car, in front of the house Hear anything Steps on the gravel from the garage toward the house See anything I saw the light from the hall as the door opened Anything else After about five minutes an upstairs light was turned on About ten minutes later it was turned off again What then Miss Sentry went into the house At what time One oclock, or a little before Have you since seen that car Yes With that number Yes Where In the Sentry garage Did you at any time that night see who was in the car Yes, a man Did you know him No, not then Did you see his face Yes, when he first passed us I had to put on the brakes to avoid hitting him, and a street lamp was shining on his face Do you now know who he was He was Mr Sentry Mr Flood turned to Mr Falkran Your witness, sir, he said Mrs Sentry I oked breathlessly at ir Falkran, fearing on the one hand that he would allow this deadly evidence to go unchallenged onthe other that his questions would involve Barbara Yet even at that cost he must do something For here was the peg upon which the States whole case must hang But Falkran said, No questions And instantly, like a clap of doom The State rests, said Mr Flood During the brief recess, Mrs Sentry, too shaken to move, stayed in her seat She was not suffering but she was so tired Professor Brace had left the court room without hav ing looked toward them, and she whispered to her son Go catch him, Phil Tell him we know he had to do it Tell him we understand, that we dont blame him Phil nodded, hurried out Then Falkran came to her, and behind the mask of a smile which he wore for the world to tea, he said, Mrs Sentry, I expect you were surprised I did not crossexamine but the hour is late, and I wish to call one witness before adjournment today, so that I can leave the jury with something to think about tonight She said in low tone I see But isnt that the key of the States whole case Proving he was down there that night He said reassuringly Be easy Trust me We will give them a bet ter key And a moment later they root while the Court and Jury resumed their placet and then Mr Falkran, briefly, made bit opening Circumstantial evidence, he said in calm, assured tones, was only to be trusted when the evidence in question was capable of but one explanation, of but one interpretation The evidence submitted by the State was elaborate, detailed, well presented, well selected But you w1DerhVtaidV4how the truth which we propose to reveal to you fits into this pattern without a misfit anywhere And he called the dead girls father to the stand Falkran dealt with the old man winning Ws confidence with pit questions but at length ha Mr Wines to examine that collection of photographs jsrhich had previously bean submitted to the New Jersey hotel dark I wish you would pick out all the photographs of your daughter which you find there, he directed The old man, after a little, selected two FaBcrtn picked op from the dorks desk those prsvtously idea iai kf the Now Jegaay hotel maa as portraits of Miss Wines What about these he asked They aint her Sure Id ought to be, I shd think Sure Im sure Not your daughter No Falkran smiled contentedly Now, Mr Wines, he asked, in a new tone, did your daughter write to you from Boston Yes, certain How often Most generally every Sunday Did ahe write you while she worked for the firm of Sentry and Loran Yes, she did How often Once, anyway Have you that letter District Attorney Flood rose hurriedly, approached the bench Falkran joined him there They spoke in low tones The old man on the stand took a letter from his pocket and held it in his hands, waiting After a moment Falkran turned and took it from him and handed it to the Judge The Judge read it, spoke to Flood Falkran smiled and with warned the spectators that If there waa further disturbance the court would be cleared Mr Sentrys testimony follows

the losses, and Dr E C E Kernkamp member of the University Farm St Paul, veterinary medicine staff, offers tips which will help to get pigs through this period During the course of the disease, which la usually four or five days, the pigs should be kept in clean, dry quarters, with plenty of room to prevent piling and crowding There ahould also be ample ventilation, but no drafts, stresses Dr Kernkamp Pigs should have access to fresh water and wholesome, easily digested feed Pigs will usually refuse feed, but those that do eat will be helped Swine flu is a contagious disease, and while not confined to pigs of any age or size it occurs more citen among pigs from S to 12 months old It usually spreads through a herd very rapidly, and is characterized by marked depression and weakness, labored breathing, high temperature, rapid loss of weight, refusal to eat, and some coughing Unless secondary lung complications develop, pigs will usually re cover in a week, though it is extremely important to give them the right kind of care Piranha, Moat Vicious Jungle Fish, Lurks in the Rivera of South America Probably the worst enemy of any living thing in the South American jungle lurks in the river itself the piranha There are piranhas in almost every South American river and they are literally devils, writes Stuart Martin in Wide World, London I have seen three varieties the greenandgold ones of Para guay, the shiny gray specimens of the Amazon, and the greenandblack spotted demons of the Araguaya and Xingu The natives eat them, but the quality of their flesh is nothing to brag about For a wounded ox or horse to fall into the river means certain death it is also fatal for a human being to get among a shoal of piranhas especially if there is any sore or wound on his body Piranhas can scent their prey far away, and go literally mad st the taste of blood It is a sickening spectacle to see these fierce fish conducting a mass attack The water around the unfortunate animal that fails into their clutch becomes a whirlpool, a maelstrom of death, boiling and foam tag 90 the blooaVcrazed piranhas rush W thi feast They eat the flesh oil the living victim until they react the bones soon nothing but tin skeleton remains The Indians catch piranhas fairl easily by baiting their hooks with i bit of meat or newlydead fish Whet the creature is jerked sshore it it still snapping viciously As an ex ample of the ferocity of the piranhi I may say that it is a commor custom to slice off the heads with a sharp knifeand even when thi is done the jaws continue to snaf at you These demons are usually between 18 inches and 2 feet it length Malta and Italy Malta has little kinship with Italy, other than religious ties, notes i writer in the Washington Post V has been
