Tbe third number on tbe Citizens Lecture Coarse was «iven by (be Parland- Newbali Company at tbe opera bouse here last Thursday evening and the house wan packed to tbe doors with people eager to bear them. Tbe members of tbe company are all artists and they gave an entertainment full of instruction as well as mirth. T b u r songs made a greai bit as all bad excellent voices and knew now to use tbem. Tbe Brass Quartette, composed cornets, trombone and French born made excellent music. Jlr McCarthy was especially uood on tbe violin and gave some fine selections. The bellrininj* act, for which tba company are noted, was a special feature of tbe program. Everybody expressed themselves as well pleased with tbe evenings entertainment. Thj oext number on the course will be kjiven January 14th 1911 by Walden and Company. This number will be a change lrom the other numbers on the course as tbe Company is composed of raagijians who will give an evenings entertainment of magic, ;nirtb and mystery.

Mr cleverly, the Handcuff King w li escape lrom all Kinds of handcuff locked up in all positions, as well as from tbe straight jacket, and many othei articles of detention. The trunk mystery is one of tbe special features of this company.

By way of indicating t i e . development which J^as., been reached in trills isiness of s u p p l y i n g iristmas and New Year wveulrs it may be cited it the largest American Manufactory of t h e s e Ifles occupies a five-story tick building with more |nn< 100,000 -square feet of fiber space and a big addi- .Is now being "built to meefthe ever-increasing w<i. In this fountain-head of holiday trophies there w e employed more than 300 persons, many •of them high-salaried- designers, engravers and •color printers. Fully two-thirds of the force of -workers is made up of girls and young women, for .despite all the wonderful machines which have t>een invented of late years to help in the manufacture of Christmas novelties, a large part of the work, must yet be done by hand and in this deft feminine, fingers are to be preferred to men's It may surprise some people to learn that a r»'*jH^-^'taani»fwctory of Christmas cards and like noveli~^_.' vm>J»-bixsy all the year round. One Christmas has no sooner passed into history than the designers are busy trying to evolve new conceits and novelties of various kinds for the next December trade, and using the record of sales for «*' G/J91S AT WO/?sC « • /yAJY//SXC72J#/f/G # S (he holidays just past to guide them in their efforts by the evidence it affords of the trend of the everchanging public taste. Nor is the "busy season"— the "rush peri od" of this activity the interval of a few weeks before Christmas, as many might suppose." On the contrary, it is during the midsummer. When most of us are celebrating the Fourth of July and enjoying an August vacation the workers in tho Christmas card factory are toiling night and day to get out cards with pictures of snow scenes and the like, or course emergency orders are received almost up to Christmas', but the great bulk of Christmas novelties must be in the hands of the dealers four monthB in advance of the day they are to be placed on sale. . And just here it may be added that, by no means all of the Christmas tokens turned out by these wonder workers are low priced. We are wont to think of Christmas novelttes as costing no mr»re than a quarter apiece, at the outside, and yet among the hundreds of different designs produced by a big manufactory each year will be found holiday remembrances that retail at. prices ranging all the way from one cent to $10. Yet. the profits of the manufacturers come principally from the lowprice goods and there is ever a feverish quest for O/SPIAY 07/P/?J novelties. Thr souvenir post card craze was the higgest thing the manufacturers ever encountered. !uid for all that our American factory has prepared 20,()1)0,1)()() post curds for this year's trade it is realized that the lad has seen its best days and the manufacturers are now hunting high and low for something to take its place. The jnoat promising prospect is found in the Ifttte Christmas "seals"" (stamps or stickers) for packages and letters which have come to have such a vogue of late yearB and are now being manufactured by tho dozens of millions a year. There arc some seven or eight main operations in the manufacture of a novelty such as a Christmas card or an ornamental calendar. First of all comes the designing or the making of a preliminary sketch the object of which is to show bow the completed novelty wilr'Jook. This sketch may be painted in water color, made with the aid of an "air brush" or formed by pasting together (in a new arrangement) details taken from other novelties. When a design is approved it goes to the "re producing room." where arrangements are made for manufacture in quantity. Next comes the preparation of the printing plates, dies, etc., and this is followed by the actual printing in quantity. Some of the presses are big enough to print 64 Christmas cards at a time, but some of the more elaborate cards must be run through the presses ten or a dozen times in order to obtain the desired color combinations. Cardboard novelties must be cut and then stamped or pressed -into- shape. The Christmas seals above mentioned are punched by hand or by means of machinery. The arrangement of the various pieces that go to make up a novelty, the adjustments of silken cords, the tying of ribbons, etc., all come in a process known as "manufacture." Finally the cards or novelties are. packed in wooden or pasteboard boxes, all ready to be displayed on the counters of the stores as soon as the holiday spirit in tho air proclaims the approach of the principal holiday of the year. _.,«*• * > ? HE TRUE CHRISTMAS SP1RITICONVIVIALITY OF CHRISTMAS' 4 * M » Toward Our Fellow Men, Toward the Needy and the Lowly Is (ts Message. •i • * * * IF- 1 The old message of good will towwd men is the Christmas spirit, the hope Is that all have been ^Jtiltivating that spirit all the year iflong. If some have not, however, this •. *week Is their opportunity, to secure «U least a fringe of It. '* The birth of Jesus of Nasareth is the special occasion of the festival, tmt all are agreed that the best way to celebrate that momentous event is by keeping the old message of good •rill to men fresh and active la the hearts of all, : ,- f . To.be plain and brief the spirit of Chrifimas is kindness toward our fellow men—toward the needy, ths lonely, the unfortunates in our. civilization's compter life. J.>^ Chjrtstmaa Is the one great festival of the entire Christian world, and no o n e flceeos It who does not Imbibe that'spirit of kindness which was Christ's. Tha—aofats-* o r BtthUhem sounded the note of peace to men, oi good will, and this note hns gone on gathering strength and university down through the ages. All the ceremonials on Christmas day are outranked by the general feeling and desire to increase the happiness of others. For that is what the Christmas spirit is. It is not the cost of the gift that counts, but the spirit that goes with it. The world is growing kindlier and better, and this is why each succeeding Christmas Is greater than any that went before. Christmas and Santa Claus and the joy of children and the brightening of the lives of the to«a fortunate are all great living facts, and it is these facts that constitute the spirit of Christmas. Whoever has that spirit within breast has the true key to Christmas with all Its Joys and happiness. # - • Holiday Season Moves Judge Lenient Towards Old Toper. to Be your honor,' said old George, Whan They Oparat*.

At a dinner in Denver Judge Ben R Lindsey told a story about Christmas conviviality. "There used to be an old fellow of 60." he said, "who got. arrested about twice a week for conviviality. He was always haled before Magistrate Blank, and as the magistrate was about 60, too, a queer kind of comradeship, almost friendship, arose between the two men. "In the late autumn the toper was called away from Denver. He did not return till Christmas time. Tho convivial Christmas spirit in the crisp Denver air was, of course, too much nil | for him, and the day alter his return he was haled before the usual magistrate on the usual charge. "The magistrate, in the green-festooned court room, felt kindly and forgiving. " 'Well, George',' ha said t o the prisoner, you are hare again at last, eh?' " 'Yen humbly. " You've been away some time, haven't you?" " Y e s , your honor; nigh on to three months.' " 'And how many times, George, did you get drunk during that period?' "'I don't like to say, your honor,' old George faltered, 'before all these here people.' " 'Well, said the magistrate, 'take paper and pencil and write it down.' "So George wrote, and the paper was passed up to the magistrate, wbo looked at It and said: "Ah, well, it's the Christmas Beaton, and since you were away, three months, George, and only got drunk 16 times, I'll let you off.' " 'Thank you, judge,' said old Oeorga, aa he left the dook. T o o looked at the paper upside down, though.'" • .

The picture represents n basket of fruit on which a number of insects have gathered. On a pale yellow apple-, which is the centerpiece in the cluster of fruit, is a large fly, painted so true to nature, so say the officials of the gallery, that the canvas was injured by some one who endeavored to "shoo" it and brought his cano or hand too close to the canvas, "A tribute to the painter's genius." says th? letter recording the fact, "for which the work had to suffer."

Dr. T. M. Crotbexa of Hartford, (Vice., has come forward wl|h a declaration that is qalte aa Interesting as th« one Doctor Osier disowned, and that ought to attract equally wide attention. He say* that' "there are many reason* for believing that we carry around with u* great reserve ppwers, and unknown energies which are seldom died, and that la old age appeal to thtse powers may give a certain vigcc entirely . unexpected, which lengthens our life and practically overcomes disease." He also eays that "tne man past sixty and from that on to eighty ougbt to be at his very best because life is then no experiment, a*itt he has attained a poet t ion where he can use all his powers to the beat advantage." Doctor Crothers insists that there is no theory in this, but that it "is sustained by a great variety of facts which fortunately are becoming more realized as the years go by." Wil A traveler in the west a decade ago was much amused at the vehicles he saw. They were all kinds of "contraptions." Buggies, "dearborns"— any old thing to ride in. The people out there were living close, faring hard and—sailng money, says the Philadelphia Fress. That's why the per capita savings bank account of Kansas excelB that of all other states. It is astonishingly different today. At the Leavenworth county fair some days ago dozens of farmers came to the grounds In motor cars. They had •aid for them, too. They had raised gh* wk**4 a a f earn to do it. The «C gilding swiftly over a year or so back condemned the "buzz" wagons which frightened their horses, cave them corOdence and a new satisfaction.

OOES NOT W A N T RECOMMENDAT I O N S TO H A V E APPEARANCE* OF PERSONAL I N T E R E S T . Outlines His Views in a Formal Statement From His Home in Sault Ste. Marie. Gov.-elcct Oaborn announces that be favors action tbat will make the term of office of Michigan's governor four years; and-because of bis projected activity t o u r i n g this about, he will Dot be a candidate for nomination for a, second term, Mr. Osbora in his statement sayfc: , "1 shall not be a candidate for governor for a second term. This conclusion has been reached after the consideration of Beveral reasons. During the primary contest and subse quent party campaign I frequently made the statement that 1 was inspired to be a candidate more by a desire to do my duty as a citizen than by a mere ambition to be governor. When I made these declarations 1 was deeply in earnest. 1 am still in the same state of mind. "In my opinion, it is desirable to change the term of governorship from two years to one term of four yeans. Should the legislature consider the submission, of an amendment to the constitution to this end, I do not wish it to be hampered by the possibility of a two-year governor succeeding to a four-year term. "Too frequently a first-term governor Teels obliged to consider and cater to popularity and popular measures in order tp insure a second term- This often involves an access of political appointments, trading of patronage, coercion of legislators and other acts not conducive to efficient government. One of the evil results of this has been the practical assumption or a legislative power by the executive that never seems to have been contemplated by our state constitution. "I wish to confess to a desire to have any suggestions I may make to the legislature or any official acts I may perform removed as far as possible from the slightest intimation that there has been any consideration of future personal or political advantage. By making a one-term declaration at this time I frankly hope to insure that credit for sincerity which naturally attaches to disinterest. The Republican party of Michigan is rich in gubernatorial material of the best character and there can be no embarrassment to either state or party in my decision to accept but one term. "It may be fair to state that a personal work to which I had hoped to devote my life was entirely interrupted by my injection into state politics at this time My one ambition . is to serve the state faithfully for one term and then return to the pursuits of a private citizen, in which capacity one should easily be able to accomplish honor, happiness and rational contenlment." ' & • The rapidity of development in this age is such as to cause many to lose *ight of the fart that some of our rhlef industries are of comparatively modern origin. Cotton spinning has come to be one of the foremost of mjfrufacturcs In this and other countries, says the Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin. But in the present form sVAes been in existence less than a hundred years, the first cotton-spmoiflg mill in the United States having been started in 1811 at Fall River, Mass. That city is preparing to ob serve the centenary of the business, and next year will have an imposing celebration. It may be of interest to know tbat when cotton manufacturing started there Fall River was , as* Troy, a same which was reentil ttt*.

The state association of farmers' clubs in session in Lansing went on record with recommendation* on a dosen questions of national tagisl*: tlon. The resolutions* governing the temperance question were toned down to a general denunciation of the saloon and a recommendation for legislation that would make It impossible to have liquor shipped Into a dry territory. A resolution 'recommending the enactment of a law which would bar the literature of wholesale liquor dealers from the United States mull, was turned down. The question of state-wide prohibition was left untouched. The association condemned the management of the state fair for allowing the sale of liQUor ou the state fair grounds, but no specific charges were made ugainst any director or officer. When the resolutions were presented tbey contained one favoring an amendment of the state constitution in a manner which would permit woman suffrage. The resolution was adopted. The amendment also gave favorable consideration to a resolution which asked national legislation providing for the expenditure of a sum on higbwuys equal to that spent on waterways. The following is a summary of the resolutions adopted tor state legislation: In favor of i h e a p p r o p r i a t i o n of a sum suttWient t o erect a. new auditorium for the MienlKiiii AK'I lculturu.1 college.

Navin, who is a member of the board of control of Jackson prison, a comprehensive plan will be laid before the coming legislature looking toward the rebuilding of the prison on a farm outxide the city, and the ultimate employment of all the eonvicta on state account. The legislature will be asked to appropriate money for the purchase of a farm of severe hundred acres to furnish produce for the prison. If this is serured, 20 acres will be inclosed with a wall, ihe work to be done by convict labor. An appropriation will then be asked for now buildings, the plan being to remove the new step' b'ock now in use and build another. There are fov»r rontracU now running in the prison, the longest being that with the Michigan Seating company, which manufactures fiber chairs. It. will not expire for five years, and by that time the board expects to be able to start on a self-supporting basis by taking over the chair contract and enlarging the binder twine plant, the rest of the convicts to be worked on the.prison farm, all to be placed on a wage schedule. In the meantime the board would favor utilizing the convicts in building good roads. If the present prison is retained a new cell block costing 1225,000 will have to be built and the members of the board are convinced that the entire rebuilding of the institution in a more favorable location and with the advantages of a. farm is by far the better plan. The supreme court has settled a feud that, has lasted 40 years at Owosso bv handing down a decision that a line fence on the farm of William Parsons must be left where it was originally placed. Seward Bills, a neighbor, ana Parsons often fought over the location of the fence. The junketing committee of the hoard of supervisors, of Saginaw, returned and advised that Saginaw county prisoners he placed at work on rounty roads as the only preventative of the tvamp evil. After firing two shots at Mjra. Bert Doyle in her home in Grand Rapids neither shot taking effect. James Ridel, 4-"> years old, a bartender, shot nimself through the temple, living inp.' antlv.

The legislature will he advised by the prison industries commission to purchase large farms for each of the prisons of the state for the employment of as many of the convicts as possible. The members of the commission, as a result of their investigation, favor a move of this kind, and Wardens Fuller and Russell, of the Ionia and Marquette prisons, favor it as weii. The wardens both recommended it to the commission at the meeting in the governor's office Wednesday and told of the success they have had with farm* of small size at present. "I send out men from the prison with no attempt in particular to prevent thir escape and do not have a bit of trouble," said Warden Russeli. "They work well and we raise all our own vegetables. T presume I have had as many as 25 convicts out at work on the farm. If we had more land I should follow the plan on a larger scale.'' "1 have rented land at X~> an acre and worked it. to good advantage," said. Warden Fuller. "It netted us abotyt. 80 cents a day for the convicts' time\ If the state wil! buy the land I will . guarantee it will yield well on the investment, and I wish we had iiOf) acres. I have options on some land now." Gen. Jose Estrada is Dying. Hen.

Although the senate was in session for only a little more than an hour Wednesday, a number of billH and resolutions were introduced. Generally the bills were of a private nature. Amng the exceptions was a bill by Senator Brown of Nebraska looking to the adopting of the railroad legislation of last session, so as to prohibit one railroad company from acquiring control of a competitive, either by lease or purchase. The first bill introduced by Rep. Massey of Tennessee, who has succeeded the late William P.

' Cotton fields will not do it, apple or- r chards with their great expense of cultivation and the risk to run from thevarlous enemies of the fruit cannot begin to do it. While what Is considered an exceptional case just now 1* presented, there is no doubt that this man's experience may be duplicated by others who care to follow his example. As has been said the growing: of this wheat is but in Us infancy, and wheat growing is still largely confined to other older varieties that do> not yield as abundantly. Even with^ these we have record*- farmers who have gr to the acre., others u'5, others again 25 bushel*. 20 bushels, and some farmers report that amount, it is found that the re. turns from such a yield would be $17 an acre. This wheat will cost to g e t to market, including all expenses,, about $8 an acre, and the farmer* will still have a net profit of about $9 an acre.

And when the endless meal waa over, and yards of white veila had been tied over pounds of hair—or is it, too, bought by the yard?—and some eight ensembles with their abject complements had been packed into three automobiles and a trap, I drew a long breath and faced about. I had just then only one object in life —to And Alison, to assure her of my absolute faith and confidence in her, and to offer my help and my poor self, if she would let me, in her service. She was not easy to find. I searched the lower floor, the veranda and the grounds, circumspectly. Then I ran into a little English girl who turned out to be her maid, and who also was searching. She was concerned because her mistress had no dinner, and because the tray of food she carried would soon be cold. I took the tray from her, on the glimpse of something white on the shore, and that was how I met the girl again. She was sitting on an overturned boat, her chin in her hands, staring out to sea. The soft tide of the bay lapped almost at her feet, and the draperies of her white gown melted hazily into the sands. She looked like a wraith, a despondent phantom of the sea, although the adjective is redundant. Nobody ever thinks of u cheerful phantom. Strangely enough, considering her evident sadness, she was whistling softly to herself, over and over, some dreary little minor air that sounded like a Bohemian dirge. She glanced up quickly when I made a misstep and my dishes jingled. All considered, the tray was out of the picture; the sea, the misty starlight, the girl, with her beauty—even the sad little whistle that stopped now and then to go bravely on again, as though it fought against the odds of a trembling lip. And then I came, accompanied by a tray of little silver dishes that jingled and an unmistakable odor of broiled chicken! "Oh!" she said quickly; and then, "Oh! I thought you were Jenkins." "Timeo Donaos—what's the rest of it?" I asked, tendering my offering. "You didn't have any dinner, you know." I sat down beside her. "See, I'll be the table. What waB the old fairy tale? 'Little goat bleat; little table appear!' I'm perfectly willing to be the goat, too." She was laughing rather tremulously. "We never do meet like other people, do we?" she asked. "We really ought to shake hands and say howare yon." "I don't want to meet you like other people, and I suppose you always think of me as wearing the other fellow's clothes," I returned meekly. "I'm doing it again; I don't seem to be able to help it. These are Granger's that I have on now." She threw back her head and laughed again, joyously, this time. "Oh, it's so ridiculous," she said, "and you have never seen me when I waa not eating It's too prosaic!" "Which reminds me that the chicken is getting cold, and the ice warm," I suggested. "At the time, I thought there could be no place better than the farm-house kitchen—but this is. I ordered all this for something I want to say to you—the sea, the sand, the stars." "How alliterative you are!" she Raid, trying to be flippant. "You are not to say anything until I have had my supper. Look how the things are spilled around!" But she ate nothing, after all, and pretty soon I put the tray down in the sand. I said little; there was no hurry. We were together, and time meant nothing, against that age-long wash of the" sea. The air blew her hair in small damp curls against her face, and little by little the tide retreated, leaving our boat an oasis in a waste of gray sand. "If seven maids with seven mops swept it for half a year as I merely held it she let it lie warm in mine. But when I raised it to iay lips, and kissed the soft, open palm, she drew It away without displeasure. "Not that, please," »he protected, and fell to whistling softly again, her chin in her hands. "1 can't sing," she said, to break an awkward pause, "and BO, when Tm fidgety, or have something on my mind, 1 whistle. I hope you "don't dislike it?" "I love it," I asserted warmly. 1 did; when she pursed her If pa like that I was mad to kiss them, "I saw you—at the station," she sold suddenly. "You—you were in a hurry to go." I did not say anything, and after a pause she drew a long breath. "Men are queer, aren't they?" she said, and fell to whistling again. After awhile she sat up as if she had made a resolution. "I am going to confess something," she announced suddenly. "You said, you know, that you had ordered all this for something you—you wanted to say to one. *But the fact is, I fixed it all—came here, I mean, because—I knew you would come, and 1 had something to tell you. It was such a miserable thing I —needed the accessories to help me out." "I don't want to hear anything that distresses you to tell," I assured her. "I didn't come here to force your confidence, Alison. I came because I couldn't help it." She did not object to my use of her name. "Have you found the—your pa- "tfi •jj but that yon were unhappy, and jA&tt done that M M ef thine beters, a i d ] 1 had nd*«*ht to help you. God —wdU; I'MeW paid uV, "f t h t t t / ' ' u j, knows, T thought you didn't want me to help yon," She heldeout her hand to me and I took it "between both of mine. No word of love had passed between us,, but I felt that she knew and understood. H was one of the moments that come seldom in a lifetime, and tfcea.pniy in great crises, a moment of perfect understanding and trust. Then she drew her hand away and sat; erect and determined, her fingers laced in her lap. As she talked the moon came up slowly and threw its bright pathway across the water. Back of us, in the trees beyond the sea wall, a sleepy bird chirruped drowsily, and a wave, larger and bolder than its brothers, sped up the sand, bringing the moon's silver tu our very f e e t 1 bent toward the girl. "I am going to ask just one question." "Anything you like." Her voice was almost dreary. "tyras it—because of anything you are going to tell me that you refused Richey?" She drew her breath '.n sharply. "No," she said, without looking at me. "No. That was not the reason." CHAPTER X X V I I I . Alison's Story. She told her story evenly, with her eyes on the water, only now and then, when I, too, sat looking seaward, I thought she glanced at me furtively. And once, in the middle of it, she stopped altogether. "You don't realize it, probably," she protested, "but you look like a- -a war god. Your face is horrible." "I will turn my back, if it will help any," I said storiuily, "but if you expect me to look anything but murderous, why, you don't know what I am going through with. That's all." The story of her meeting with the Curtis woman was brief enough. They had met in Rome first, where Alison and her mother had taken a villa for a year. Mrs. Curtis had hovered on :;What sort jof ^ n » ~ , . b * * . w J f d U f r h ^ I demanded. I h^fefot up sityl waa pacinf baoff and i#Ttiard-oa the salft.' I remember kicking savagely at a bit of water-soaked board that lay in my way. , ''Very handsome—as large as you are, but fair, and even more erect" I drew my shoulders up sharply. I am straight enough, but I was fairly sagging with jealous rage. "When mother began to get around, somebody told her that I had been going about with Mrs. Curtis and her brother, and we had a dreadful time. I was dragged home like a bad child. Did anybody ever do that to you?" "Nobody ever cared. I was born •>i-r ach save* which coitfraiftaw • dttta /or. txxL It it * wot* sign that thedigeriv*.

"The—police h a ^ not interfered with you?" "They haven't had any opportunity," I equivocated. "You needn't distress yourself about, that, anyhow." "But I do. I wonder why you still believe in me? Nobody else does." "I wonder," I repeated, "why I do!" "If you produce Harry Sullivan," she WAS saying, partly to herself, "and if you could connect him with—Mr. Bronson, and get a full account of why he was oh the train, and all that, it—it would help, wouldn't it?" I acknowledged that it. would. Now that the whole truth was almost in my possession, 1 was stricken with the old cowardice. I did not want to know what she might, tell me. The yellow line on the horizon, where the moon was coming up, was a broken bit. of golden chain; my heel in the sand was again pressed on a woman's yielding fingers; I pulled myself together with a jerk. "In order that what you tell me may help me, if it will," I said constrainedly, "it would be necessary, perhaps, that you tell it to the police. Since they have found the end of the necklace—" "The end of the necklace!" she repeated slowly. "What about the end of the necklace?" I stared at her. "Don't you remember'— I leaned forward—"the end of the cameo necklace, the part that was broken off, and was found In the black sealskin bag, stained with— with blood?" "Blood," she said dully. "You mean that you found the broken *end? And then—you had my good pocket-book. Do you suppose, the Walrus said, that Land you saw the necklace in it, and they could get It clear?'* she threw at me once' when she must have known I was , goiag to speak. I held her hand, and as long you—must have thought—" "I didn't think • anything," 1 hastered to assure her. '1 tell you. 1 never thought of anything the ragged edges of society there, pleading the poverty of the south since the war as a reason for not going out more. There was talk of a brother, hut Alison had not seen him, and after a scandal which implicated Mrs. Curtis and a young attache of the Austrian embassy, Alison had been forbtdden to see the woman. "The women had never liked her, anyhow," she said. "She did unconventional things, and they are very conventional there. And they said she did not always pay her—her gambling debts. I didn't like them. I thought they didn't like her because she was poor—^and popular. Then—wo came home, and I almost forgot her, but last spring, when mother waa not well—she had taken grandfather to the Riviera, and it. always uses her up—wn went, to Virginia Hot Springs, and we met. them there, the brother, too, this time. His name was Sullivan, Harry Finckney Sullivan." "I know. Go on." "Mother had a nurse, and I was alone a great deal, and they were very kind to me. I—I saw a lot of them. The brother rather attracted me, partly— partly because he did not make love to me. He even seemed to avoid me, and I was piqued. I had been spoiled, I suppose. Most of the other men I knew had—had—" "I knew that, too," I said bitterly, and moved away from her a trifle. I was brutal, but the whole story was a long torture. I think Rhe knew what I was suffering, for she showed no resentment. "It waB early and there were few people around—none that I cared about. And mother and the nurse played cribbage eternally, until I felt as though the little pegs were driven into my brain. And when Mrs. Curtis arranged drives and picnics, I—I slipped away and went. I you won't believe me, but I had "Did You Marry Him?" I Demanded. an orphan," I said, with a cheerless attempt at levity. "Go on." "If Mrs. Curtis knew, she never said anything. She wrote me charming letters, and in the summer, when they went to Cresson, she asked me to visit her there. I was too proud to let her know that I could not go where I wished, and so—I sent •'oily, my maid, to her aunt's in the country, pretended to go to Seal Harbor, and really—went to Cresson. You see I warned you it would be an unpleasant story." I went over and stood in front of her. All the accumulated jealousy of the last few weeks had been fired by what she told me. Jf Sullivan had come across the sands just then, I think I would have strangled him with my hands, out of pure hate. "Did you marry him?" I demanded. My voice sounded hoarse and strange in my ears. "That's all I want to know. Did you marry him?" "No." I drew a long breath. "You—cared about him?" She hesitated. "No," she said Anally. "I did not care about, him." I sat down on the edge of the boat and mopped my hot face. I was heartily ashamed of myself, and mingled with my abasement was a great relief. If she had not married him, and had not cared for him, nothing else was of any importance. "I was sorry, of course, the moment the train had started, but I had wired I was coming, and I could not go back, and then when I got there, the place was charming. There were no neighbors, but we fished and rode and motored, and—it was moonlight, like this." i put my hand over both of hers, clasped in her lap. . "I know," I acknowledged repentantly, "and—people do queer things when it is moonlight. The moon has got me to-night, Alison. If I am a boor, remember that, won't you?" Her fingers lay quiet under mine. "And so," she went on with a little sigh, "I—began to think perhaps I cared. But all the time I felt that there was something not quite right. Now and then Mrs. Curtis would say or do something that gave me a queer start, as if she had dropped a mask for a moment And there was trouble with the servants; they were almost insolent. I couldn't understand. I don't know when it dawned on me that the old Baron Cavalcanti had been right when he said they were not. my kind of people. But I wanted to get away, wanted it desperately." "Of course, they were not your kind." I cried. "The man was married! The girl Jennie, a housemaid, was a spy in Mrs. Sullivan's employ. If he had pretended tn marry you I would have killed him! Not only that, but the man he murdered, Harrington, was his wife's father. And I'll see him hans by the neck yet if it takes every energy and every penny I possess." I could have fold her so much more gently, have broken the shock for her; I have never been proud of that evening on the sand. I was alternately a boor and a ruffian—like a hurt youngster who passes the blow that has hurt him on to his playmate, that both may bawl together. And now Alison sat, white and cold, without speech.

As ff the-* charges against her of awake o' nights and of eating canary birds whenever she gets the chance were not enough, the doctors have just discovered that for years she has been responsible for the spread of diphtheria. Dr. G. J. Awburn of Manchester, England, having traced an epidemic of this disease in a suburb of that city to a pet cat belonging to one of his patients, has found, after much clever investigation, that all cats are peculiarly susceptible to diphtheritic affections of the throat. He has therefore recently been warning all families who own cats to watch them carefully, and, If they develop coughs, to forbid their being hugged ami petted. Dr. Awburn further recommends that If the cough persists and the cat begins to grow thin to have the animal destroyed at once. The only really safe way, he says, is to let the first wheese fch puBBy's death warrant. ^ " . How It Happened. He was limping down the street with one arm In a sling and both eyes In mourning.

COSTU KISSES AT CHRISTMAS j * T a Onriatmaa dlanar glvan wery JE%. year to toa old folk* afBanltfk JTm **» ^»Pl t a l of the potteries41acrlct in England, a quaint earomony Is regularly observed. % A.t the conclusion of the meal one of the oldest of the women guests ad vances to the platform and kisses the mayor on both cheeks. His worship gallantly returns the salute, and the exchuuge of kisses continues until all the mure venerable dames present have been thus honored. In l urge business establishments, where the assistants live in. a great deul or kissing goes on at Christmas time. Some of the more during spirits amuiiK the male "bands" have been known to make bets with one another as to the number of different girls they would' kiss between Chrtatmas eve and New Year's eye. In a certain London'drapery bouse two or three seasons ago one of these "horrid males" made a record by saluting seventeen different damsels. But he found the game was not worth the candle, for. in addition to a scratched face and u pretty severe pommeling at the bunds of u victim's sweetheart the rash youth iouud his services dispensed with. At another great emporium one Christmas indiscrimiuate kissing created so much trouble that more than a dozen young men were dismissed. Ever since in this particular establishment even the introduction of a sprig of mistletoe during the festl\e season has been enough to insure instant dismissal. A girl who appeared with a sprig of It in her blouse was orderta to put on her things aud leave at once. A. play ful young man who merely pretended to kiss u young lady assistant was hurried off* the premises with his hat and overcoat in his band. The Lancashire factory maid has a little kissing custom all her own that is sacred to Christmas. At this special period she will kiss an overlooker or any other male "hand" In the expectation that she will be rewarded with a shilling for her temerity. Woe betide the ungallnnt worker who fails to part with the coin. He will find his coat sleeves sewed up or nailed to the wall. If the girl herself does not do this her fellow workers will.

In one instance the master was so furious" nt being kissed that he closed his works until New Year's day, thus mulcting the hands in a week's wages. A ludicrous story is told of a young Japanese engineering apprentice In connection with the Christmas custom of kissing. He was serving his time In the north of England and was astonished when a waitress at the dining rooms which he regularly frequented kissed him under the mistletoe. On its being explained to him ttaut n present was expected in return, htsuggested a pair of gloves. The damsel, hewever. had heard that he was immenuely wealthy and gently hinted that something for her neck would be more acceptable. When the present arrived next day she conjured up visions of a pearl necklace aa she tremblingly undid the parcel.

Only a holiday was eg along—on the very next Monti Larry knew the holiday was at all. He rather wanted to holidays were all pertly his. they were to be shared by lots and lots of others, but he, too, wanted his own particular little share. There was Lincoln's birthday and there was Washington's birthday— and the Fourth of July and Thanksgiving day, and all of these Larry felt a ahare Is. for was he Dot an American boy? And does not every American boy feel a share in these holidays? Christmas day—of course he felt a part of Christmas day and a big share In the day Itself—just as all boys and girls feel that they belong to that most wonderful of ail days. But the coming holiday—itSras not Larry's. Nor had it scything to do with Larry. The thought of that bothered him. He wished somehow it could be different. He had asked his father what Labor day meant and his father had told him that it was a holiday set apart as a day of recognition to the laboring class. He had not quite understood what that meant but his father had explained that it meant a day set aside in honor of there being such a class as a laboring class, showing that to belong to the laboring class was something dignified and to be respected, Larry knew then that it was useless for him to have a share in this holiday— a real, real share in it at least. But then a happy thought came to him. For the nex,t few days Larry was very, very busy. Every one thought he was busily playing and making mud pies and such, but not at all. And on the morning of Labor day they knew what Larry had been doing. He led his father and his mother and his grownup sister and his fourteen-year-old brother to the very far corner of the garden which had always been set aside as Larry's mudpie playground. There he showed them a tiny garden set out with paths and borders of pretty pebbles. Growing in the garden were ferns which Larry had transplanted from the woods and a tiny red geranium stood proudly In a little bed by itself. It had come from Larry's nursery flower pot. "Ton see," he said, "I wanted to have a holiday today—I eaean I wanted to have a right to the holiday as daddy talked about laborers having, so I've labored, toe." It was rather • hard word to say but he managed it welL "And now,** he turned to his family, "don't you think I can have a little share in Labor day, too—a real little sharer And his family said, 'Tea," and 1 think you'll agree with them, too!

It does not signify your subjection, whether your husband wears one or not And according to Its original significance, you might prefer that It remain a onesided tradition. The nee of the rings was introduced by the Egyptians. It implied the endpwment upon the bride of all the husband's possessions, and gave to the Egyptian woman the right to issue commands with,the same authority as her spouse. The ring, as a symbol, has at ail times had a dignified and noble connotation; . By Its form it signified eternity, and Its use (n the wedding service Is not without this thought As a pledge the ring dates back to the ancients, when Its delivery signified a transfer ef authority and carried with It the power of the donor.

While many women are limited as to the UneB and styles ttiey can wear, every type can be attractively and becomingly dressed if the effect of style upon the figure is studied. The figure with the large bust may be made to appear more graceful by clothing selected to conceal Its defect* ] and to center attention on portions of the figure pleasing In effect. The dolman line, with its loose, easy fit, conceals rather than reveals the large busi, provided, of course, the draping falls In pleasing lines. Although the dolman emphasizes and frequently Increases the size of the upper portion of the figure, the loose, easy sleeves and armholes tend to equalize and distribute the apparent bulk, thus making the bust less conspicuous. Double-breasted coats, with overlapping thickness of cloth, are not suitable to the large-busted figure. The shawl collar may be becoming while worn open with a deep V down the front and the collar Itself concealing the lines of the bust, but it is disastrous when worn closed, with the bulky fur turned inward, increasing the size of the bust The straight collar, worn rather high around the neck, tends to equalize the figure by giving less contrast between bust and shoulder and neckline. The scarf collar fulfilling this function and at the same time giving a straight line down the front of the coat and partly concealing the outlines of the bust, may likewise be a wise selection for uhe woacn with a large bust. Sometimes tne bust may be made to appear smaller and* the balance of the entire figure Improved If the hips are made to appear larger. Belted effects have this advantage and fulfill another function as well—they hold the coat bloused slightly, so that strain over the bust line Is relieved. Trimming, particularly fur trimming, placed at the bottom of the coat or as pockets, makes the skirt portion of the coat appear heavier and thus equalizes the figure. The bust then appears smaller. The danger of this method Is that It shortens the figure and therefore cas be worn successfully only by the taller figure. The coat fitting trimly with a normal arm's-eye and narrow shoulder line may, with a cleverly handled flare, give the impression that the entire figure is as slim as the emphasized upper portion. If the flare Is oot gracefully conceived. If, for Instance, it flares from the shoulder without revealing the atlm portion of the figure above the wSist, it may have the unpleasing effect of appearing like an Inverted triangle, wide and heavy at the bottom. The straight-line coat frequently Is the best choice of the woman with large hips. Fitting neither loosely nor snugly, it tends to equalize the figure, at the same time giving slender lines. It Is not as pleasing for the largebusted figure, as the weight of the cost rests on the bast, caasing this portion of the figure to be made conspicuous. The heavy pile fabrics are less slenderizing than smooth surfaces. Shiny materials may emphasize high lights. while s soft-napped fabric of dull and supple texture may create becoming shadows, cresting an Illusion of height. Cloth coats, particularly those made of the soft, fine fabrics sponsored this season, axe lighter In weight than the fur coat, an Important consideration for the average woman, particularly one who does much walking. M$M K w<'mmwm FEEDING LAYING HEN IS REAL ART Plush coats, not the ordinary sort, but gorgeous types, are one of the smartest items in" winter cloaking. Startling effect is the Idea In these ultra-fashionable plaids. Select a bold plaid of red and black of rich deep soft-pile all-wool fabric Trim this with black fur, top It with • pert lit. tie red hat, carry a red leather handbag and you cannot fall to win fashion's enthusiastic smile of approval. A cape adds charm to the alHiouette of the plaid model in the picture. The color scheme is brown, beige and eream-whlte with a beige caracul collar. Rote Beige Lace Draped on Side of This Chapeau Fringe, Trimming Note for Day, Evening Wear Fringe continues to hold. u leading place in trimmings, both for day and evening wear. The tiered effect Is 4 favorite treatment for fringe. An evening dress of pink velvet with three tiers of beaded fringe Is a recent French Jmportatldn. Fringe, made ot flat sequins is decidedly effective especially when applied In tiers. Fringes of metal are new in dressmaking. They blend beautifully with the metal cloths that are so popular. A gold fringe on an evening gown of gold brocade and green velvet Is an exquisite combination. A smart costume in black and white has the black jersey skirt and the tunic bloise banded with deep black and white fringe. By the way, these .varicolored fringes are new, and decidedly effective.

Feeding the laying* hen is a real art, for so much depends upon the poultryman's decision each day in the matter so that his birds will work most efficiently. ' The feeder is a skilled mechanic who systematically holds the bird* op to 80 to 00 per cent production from November 1 tp the following fail, without causing a slump in egg production and at the same time maintaining their health and vigor. One of the first prerequisites in feeding is to understand what the egg consists ot It is made up of a yolk, white, shell, and u two-thirds water. The yolk is fat and is made from feeding fatty or starchy foods, as corn, wheat and oats. The white is .animal protein, which is made from material such as meat and milk. ' The, shell la made mostly of calcium, which is found In certain kinds of stone snd oyster shelL In order to aid In the digestion of all of these foods some bulk Is desirable which ia green and succulent, such as sprouted oats, mangel beets, cabbage, etc. In order for these foods to be properly digested, an abundance of grit ahould be available, as this acts as the hen's teeth in grinding the food in the gizzard. Water is cheap. Have it before the birds at all times. :'.*: .* ;«« « Legume Hay Helps Solve the Green Feed Problem Legume hay helps solve the winter 'green feed problem for the chickens. Experiments In Ohio, Kansas, Texas, and California seem to indicate definitely that where no other source of green feed is available the addition of a legume hay will increase the number of eggs produced and their hatchabillty. It will also reduce the mortality from nutritional troubles, points out O. S. Vickers, extension specialist in poultry at the Ohio State university. Save the hay with the roost leaves and the greenest color for the chickens. An easy way to feed chickens hay is to provide a rack along the wall and keep hay before them all the time. A trough along the bottom of the rack will catch all the leaves that would otherwise be wasted. These can be fed from the mash hopper. Alfalfa meal may be used If good hay cannot be bought at reasonable prices. The meal should be used In the mash. About 10 per cent alfalfa meal will substitute for a like amount of bran. A combination of mangel beets and legume bay makes a good winter combination to use instead of sprouted oats. It may be that hay Is about to take the place of our old reliable, but troublesome, sprouted oats as a winter green feed. :.*•-% 0(X»00O00000O00O0OO0OOOO00 Poultry Hints The laying hen never loafs, e e e Soy beans can be used In a poultry ration If minerals are added. • e • Poultry raising brings quick returns and involves a' small capital Investment in land, buildings and equipment. e • • The factors of scientific poultry housing are to keep the pens, yards and houses clean, dry and sanitary, e • e Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons offer pood markets for capons.

The dry law will be repealed at the next session of the legislature In February, for out of a membership of 112, about 80 of the new legislators are pledged to take this action. It was a great victory for the Conservative government headed by Premier G. Howard Ferguson. Only one cabinet member, Dr. David Jamieson, was defeated. Sinclair and Raney, respectively the Liberal and Progressive dry leaders, won by narrow margins. William Nickle, until recently Premier Ferguson's attorney general, who left the government to support the drys, was beaten in Kingston by a majority of more than 2,000. His downfall was a demoralizing defeat for the drys. Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are the only provinces of Canada that still cling to prohibition. FOREIGNERS In Foochow, China, who are numerous, were In dire peril for some days while the Cantonese and .northern troops were fighting for control of Fukien province. Hdwever, calls for protection were speedily answered and Japanese, British and French gunboats were hurried to the scene. To protect American lives and property the mine detachment vessel Hart was sent from Manila to Foochow. Latest reports of the fighting indicated that the Cantonese were having the best of It and woo Id soon capture Foochow, Chekiang and the entire province. Sir Austen Chamberlain, British foreign secretary, told the house of commons that the government opposed armed Intervention In China and bad taken all the steps It deemed necessary to protect British nationals In the war zone. As opposed to the recent pronunclamento of the Cantonese commander Is the report of the International commission headed by Silas H. Strawn on extraterritoriality in China. After eight months of study the commission recommends that extraterritorial rights be retained by the powers for the present, being progressively abolished only as changing conditions warrant, and that the administration of the laws be entrusted to a judiciary independent of the executive or the military authorities. SECRETARY OF STATE KELLOGG has devised and formally proposed a plan which he believes will settle the age-old dispute between Peru a.nd Chlje over Tacna and Arica. He suggests that those provinces be ceded to Bolivia, now shut off from the sea. and that Peru and Chile receive compensation for public works constructed there. The provinces, under his plan, would be maintained as a perpetually demilitarized zone, the city of Arica w.ould be made a free pott and the Morro promontory would be established under International contra* as a memorial to the valor of both Chile and Peru with a monument on the headland commemorating the friendly settlement of the question. Prompt resumption of diplomatic relations between Chile and Peru would be expected under the formula, which. Secretary Kellogg explained, "does not call for a moral.surrender or any* thing that can be so construed, by one country to the other." Further, he said, its acceptance would embody **a settlement which South America as a whole would welcome as one insuring permanent peace and stability." N ICARAGUA'S troubles are not over by- any means.

Claudel Is an author of considerable note and of delightful personality. Born at Lyons in 1870, he began bis diplomatic career as attache to Washington 30 years ago. Later he was consul to Cfenada. He lived In China nearly twenty years 'as consul. He was transferred to Frankfort In 1012 as consul general, and later served as minister to Brazil, minister to Denmark, and was named ambassador to Japan in 1923. FOREIGN MINISTER BRIAND, successfully defending his policy of reestablishing - friendship between France and Germany, told the chamber of deputies that a peace policy, & the only means of averting another calamitous war. He said the policies of Locarno and Thiory were merely steps toward peace, adding that he and Herr Stresemann differed on many points but were trying to get together. Regarding the Rhlneland, he said: "We are not on the Rhineland to throttle Germany, we are there to see that the treaty stipulations are carried out, and we have every reason to withdraw when we are satisfied. I am convinced the substitution of the League of Nations for the -Interallied control commission instead of weakening France's security would strengthen it." M. Brland also took occasion to warn Italy not to get too gay. He said It was all tight for the Italians tolose their tempers, but that they must not do it too often. HERBERT HOOVER, secretary of ' commerce, says In his annual report that the year has been one of unprecedented progress for American Inv dustrles and never has been surpassed In the volume of production and consumption, in the physical quantity of exports and Imports, and in the rate of wages. There has been practically no unemployment He adds: "As In the preceding year there were a few points where conditions were less satisfactory, as In the New England textile Industry, two or three sections of the agricultural Industry, and the bituminous coa^ Industry. "On the whole, however, the country was able to maintain the highest standard of living in Its history, a standard far above that in most other countries of the world at this or any other time. This represents a remark* FTBE forty, men stem to set higher t>*n jpolitki ijbe^flieti^i pleasure or their bnainesa. Politics in itiiug^and noble definition is the science of good-goveninWi^-In iti low and* tejifiih modern meaning, politics is the battle for spoils and power for p^tonaJ advantage. In the ideal sense; politics concerns our livea, our tfbeities and onr fate. It has the purpose at planning, protecting pre- •orving and prompting the public good and welfare at every angle. In the baser, practical, partisan expression of today, politics largely is the scheme by which a number of materialistic men live at the public crib and thrive like parasites and ticks upon the body politic. Should young men' reaching their majority and soon thereafter risk their characters and their possible careers by touching the-black pitch of politics aa it exists today in our America, or should they shun it for the cleaner fields of science, art and industry ?J0n the other hand, admitting that onr politics, as constituted now, is not what it should be, should young men who presumably have purer sentiments of patriotism and the fresher fire of a finer feeling for the future of the city, state or nation, should they enlist, as they did in the war, to make, in peace times, this land much aafer for 4eniocraj5y? The danger of being defiled by close contact with the average politician of our modern politics is not to be belittled or ignored. The need of the power of young men to cleanse or to mioimize the calculating sordidness of modern politics is just as great as the necessity for gunners on the battleships at sea, for our American municipalities <and voters-axe "at sea" politically. No Great Advance Made by Civilization ii) Three Thousand Years FOR Cr i c l »a^754^ka J s.ScidE:ve<^itfw By PROF. ROBERT A, MILLIKAN, Yale University. The more intimately one gets in touch with any civilizatioo of bygone days the more he is struck by the similarity between the way people lived and talked then and the way they live, talk and think now. The beauty of women, the strength of men, the flavdr of strawberries, the aroma of flowers, the love of friends, courtship, marriage and" divorce, the race track, by wrestling and boxing—all these played' almost exactly the same role in the lives of the people of ancient Borne as they play in the lives of the people of New Haven or New York. And it is around these things, too, that about 90 per cent of the interest*-of the average man resolve/ In what are called the highest things of life, can we truthfully»be said to have made any real progress?

Lasting World Peace Based on Contentment,* Happiness and Prosperity 1 " I l l l l By WILLIAM C. ALEXANDER, Kiwanis Vice president Colossal efforts have been made by many to obtain world peace. World peace can never come without national peace. National peace can never be hoped for without community peace. Peace is dependent upon contentment, happiness and prosperity. Kiwanis has a greater opportunity than any organization I know for contributing to the welfare of community, national and world well-being. Our organization is built on a solid foundation, from the bottom, not from the top. Starting at the bottom, our just duty is to accept in our clubs, members—not only on a basis of their fitness as outstanding business or professional men—but as good citizens, and also of their proven interest in the actual work of Kiwanis and a full appreciation of its worth. When a man'says he hasn't time' for Kiwanis, if yoa annot convince him and he does not agree to attend meetings and to bear his share of the labors, "pass him up." You cannot afford to take him, in.

Agriculture still lags behind other Industries, Secretary Hoover concedes. "The steady advance In prices of agricultural commodities from the time of the great fall In 1920-21 up to the c^op year 1924-25 has contributed to the restoration of* agriculture, although there are still weak spots" says Mr. Hoover. By CHATJNCEY M. DEPBW, Retired Railroad Director. ONE of the most Important attacks yet made on the Volstead act was Of course there will always be newsboys who will be railroad preri* dents, and unscholarly men who will rise to great distinction. Some persons are endowed with exceptional qualities—divine gifts which make them great regardless of training. There is no accounting for the exceptional man, but the percentage of newsboys who become magnates is exceedingly small, and I believe even they would have madabao infinitely repulsed by the Supreme "court" of the , greater success if they had been better equipped. ' , The George Washington^, the Abraham Lincolna, the, Calhouns, the Henry Clays and the DanM W^bsterg have all these exceptional qualities and would have been great anyhow. ,' The qualities essential to success as I woul^place them are: First, character; second, industry, remorseless industry; third, s fuH and thorough knowledge of one's career or vocation; fourth, a due regard for one's fellow men and the cultivation of them. United States in an Opinion that upheld that section1 of the act which limits to one pint In ten days the amount of spirituous or vinous liquor a physician may prescribe for a patient Five of the justices held that this restriction Is clearly valid under the power granted congress In the eighteenth amendment to enforce prohibition by appropriate legislation. Justices Sutherland. McReynolds. Stone and Butler in a dissenting opinion asserted that not only is the restriction an unlawful Interference with the medical profession and the right Of Individual states to control medical practice, but that it Is plain, from a reading of the eighteenth amendment,* that congress and the states whicfc ratified the amendment, sought only T Duty of Church to Aid in Preservation of SpiritUEal ra& Physical jHealth , By DEAN CHARLES R.

The consequences were uproarious .beyond belief; but no one seemed to care; on the contrary, the mother and daughter laughed heartily, and enjoyed it very much; and the latter, toon beginning to mingle in the sports, got pillaged by the young brigands most ruthlessly.

Bob Cratchlt said, and calmly, too, that he regarded it as the greatest success achieved by Mrs. Cratch it since their marriage. Mrs. Cratchlt said that now the weight was off her mind, sue would confess she had her doubts about the quantity of flour. Everybody had something to say about It, but nobody said or thought it was at all a small pudding for a large family. It would have been flat heresy to do so. Any Cratchlt would have blushed to hint at such a thing. > At last the dinner was allj done, the cloth was cleared, the hearth swept, and the fire made up. The compound in the jug being tasted, and considered perfect, apples and oranges were put upon the table, and a shovel full of chestnuts on the fire. Then all the Cratchlt family drew round the hearth, in 'what Bob Cratchit called a circle, meaning half a one; and at Bob Cratchlt's elbow stood the family display of glass, two tumblers and a custard-cup without a handle. These held the hot stuff from the Jug, howe v e r a s well as golden goblets 'would have done; and Bob served It out with beaming looks, while the chestnuts on the fire sputtered and cracked noisily. Then Bob proposed! . >MA merry Christmas to us all, my dears. God bless us." • W^hlch all the'family re-echoed. >God bless us every one!" said Tiny Tim, the last of all,—Christmas Carolr Stave 8. .

They can do anything they like. Of course, they can. Of course, they can. Hallo, my fine fellow!" •'Hallo!" returned the boy. "Do you know the poulterer'g, In the next street but one, at the corner?" Scrooge inquired. "I should hope I did," replied the lad. "An Intelligent boy!" said Scrooge. "A remarkable boy! Do you know whether they've sold the prize turkey that wag hanging up there?— Not the little prise turkey, the big one?" "What, the one as big as me?" returned the boy. "What a delightful boy!" said Scrooge. "It's a pleasure to talk to him. Yes, ray buck!" "It's hanging there now," replied the boy. "Is it?" said Scrooge, "Go and buy It." "Walk-w!" exclaimed the boy. "No, no," said Scrooge, "I am in earnest. Go and buy it, and tell 'em to bring it here, that I may give them the directions where to take It. Come back with the man, and I'll give you a shilling. Come back with him in less than five minutes and TU give t,half*a-crown!" The boy was off like a shot. He must have had a steady hand at a trigger who. could have got a shot off half so fast. "I'll send it to Bob Crachit's," whispered Scrooge, rubbing his hands and splitting with a laugh. "He shan't know who sends i t It's twice the size of Tiny Tim. Joe Miller never made such a Joke as sending It to Bob's will be!" The hand in which he wrote the address was not a steady one; but write it he did, somehow and went down stairs to open the street door, rtady for the coming of the .poulterer's man. As he stood there, waiting his arrival, the knocker caught his eye. "I shall love It as long as I live!* cried Scrooge, patting it with his hand. "I scarcely ever looked at it before. What an honest expression It has In its face! It's a wonderful knocker!—Here's the turkey. Hallo! Whoop! How are you! Merry Christmas!" It was a turkey! He never could have stood upon his legs, that bird. He would have snapped 'em short off in a minute, like sticks of sealing wax. "Why, it's impossible to carry that to Camden Town," said Scrooge. "You must have a cab." The chuckle with which be said this, and the chuckle wttsr which he paid for the turkey, and the chuckle with which be paid for the cab, and the chuckle with which he recompensed the boy, were only to be exceeded by the chuckle with which he sat down breathless in his chair again, and chuckled t m he cried. Shaving w a s ; not an easy task, for his hand continued to shake very much; and shaving reantrea attention, even when you don't dance while you are tt it But if he had cut the end j of hie nose off, he would hare put a piece of sticking Ranter erer It, and been quite MtUied.

Actions speak louder than words and your sweetheart's handwriting is an action which will tell you things he may be, unable to say with his words. It will truly uncover also, his inner habits of thought which he himself may not even reatiae. Words often hide thought, but the handwriting of an individual is Buch a sure index of his inner nature tl*at for hundreds of years bade, business houses have advertised "write in your own handwriting" when seeking employees. Now the handwriting may look different each day, but close analysis reveals that It nevertheless follows certain rules of action which are characteristic of the writer. When the general habits of life, the occupation and experiences change, the general writing changes with these habits. A man who suddenly becomes rich writes a totally different handwriting in a few weeks than he did when he was looking around for a way to make a l»are living, The happy girl In love writes much differently than when repressing her emotions all of the time. Since our sweethearts and friends are such important things in life, let us find their "temperature" so that our hearts will not be broken expecting a feverish response from one who is selective, and ruled by the head instead of the heart. Use the barometer herewith, and find out first, the angle of writing. Secure at least twenty lines before Judging.

Has Ho a Dual Personality ? <? *y «*3J .... ; * « . «4H« • From the "iove barometer'* it Is seen that the backhand writer is cautious, calm in the affections, selective in friendships. A few may know his warmth, but to the many he is cool, reasons his a f f e c t i o n s , and often apSlant Varies pears the/efore exclusive. The cool intellect rules, more than the fiery Impulsive feelings. Other signs to be learned later, may, however, "warm him up a bit" The further one's writing "falls forward" the more quickly do one's demonstrations of affection show themselves. Like trees swaying in the breesse, the emotions are bent and expressed. The man with the very slanting handwriting marries a girl with an almost straight handwriting with other cold signs.^ She does her duty by her family, and is "sensibly*' affectionate, but wonders why her romantic husband with the pronounced slant to his writing goes on through life looking for romance in many fields. Msny writers you will notice, when you look at the slant of the writing, will vary In this slant to some extent, showing a balance between their heart and head, but if the writing Is markedly slanting in one section of the letter, and upright or backhand in another section, It is written by one with a dual personality. Sometimes he will be very responsive, but at others wilt suddenly and abruptly change to coldness, without any reason or any warning, with seemingly no memory for the feelings of before.

it would kill the soil conservation program and because it could not be enforced with out a policemen on every farm The most accurate farm authorities assert the amendment would penalize the very

about help s ir business to get Much Talk, 0n its feet, but it No Action has not yet ac complished much The house ways and means com mittee, it is true, is making some headway and a number of senators, including the powerful Senator Harrison of Mississippi, are asserting the necessity for a reversal of fed eral policy But, again, there is much more talk than action, and in the meantime the countrys business is sliding lower and lower The difficulty in the present situation and the thing that probably has been more responsible for the business slump than anything else is that business heretofore has been unable to tell what the federal gov ernment is going to do It has become evident already that with a somewhat changed atmosphere in congress, there are many business men who are more hopeful than a month ago Business men, big and little, are quick to note that there are senators and representatives who think the time has arrived for business to receive some consideration And it ought to be added that unless business does get some consideration, this current depression is going to be as bad as the last one The federal government must give attention to the ag ricultural problem and it must fit that job into some consideration of the other half of American life, namely, the commerce and industry outside of agricultural life It will be recalled that during the first two years of President Roosevelts administration there was a flock of laws passed that were of great value to the country Many of them were of a temporary char acter and were enacted oh that basis That would have been fine if the administration had stopped there But it did not The roam ing herd of socalled thinkers who were scattered far and wide in federal jobs had to have their innings At least they thought they had to have a turn at bat All of their pet theories had to be tried out The result many laws that were purely experimental, dangerous, damaging and a burden to business With many millions of others, I expected at that time to see these queer looking laws shaken down, corrected, or repealed where it was found necessary That has not happened Again, the result the countrys business from the smallest general store at a cross roads or a garage or a gasoline station to the greatest corporation, like General Motors or Pennsylvania railroad, has had to suffer under the heavy heel of the national government The reason that congress is showing signs of a movement that will revise the tax structure is because these smaller businesses out through the country have now got their fill of government red tape, complex reports, visits of investigators, new tax forms and levies, or what have you Those people are making themselves heard here in Washington So if congress takes some action looking to a fair deal for business, just as it is quite determined to do something for agriculture, I enter tain no doubt about the response it will get from the business interests As far as business has made itself felt, it is apparently asking only to be treated equitably with labor Every one knows that the last three or four sessions of congress have been frightened to death every time a labor leader showed up on Capitol hill The reward given congress was the C I O sitdown strikes, violence and a general mess The condition has left a goodly number of senators and representatives a bad taste in their mouths see There Is plenty of dirty linen in the business closet It has a hard wash day ahead to Messing restore if to the in Business respect of the bulk of the people Business has been smug It has thought too little, in many instances, of its obligations to the public at large But surely there is a point beyond which federal punishment ought not go since there is a responsibility also in the other direction Unless business gets a reasonable chance to stand on its own feet, how is it going to reemploy workers and reduce the relief rolls Every individual wants to earn some money He wants a return for his labor He dreams some day of a retirement, a lay off when he can watch the world go by I can see no reason why the federal government should not encourage, rather than discourage, such a thing It is the conviction of a very great many, an increasing number of peoplo that the federal government is mossing too much into business But aside from that phase There are a number of things happening that are difficult to understand At a time when business is sliding off like a snowball going down hill, the President steps out and orders an C investigation by the federal trade commission into high prices The inquiry, of course, is directed at monopoly I have no doubt at all that there will be a blast from some government official pretty soon in which big business again will be told it is crushing the little fellow and that the public is suffering from the high prices maintained by a trust There may be even a fireside chat because a Presidents voice penetrates everywhere At a time, too, when the prices of bonds and shares of corporation stock are sinking like they have double pneumonia, out bursts Chairman Douglas of the securities and exchange commission with a small cargo of dynamite about crooked dealings underneath in the stock exchanges of the country Fortunate ly for the kindreds of thousands of small investors, the stock exchange quotations did not fall much further as a result of Mr Douglas learned remarks The prices already had fallen below the knees But the Douglas statement certainly gave no confidence to those who were beginning to believe that congress would try to undo some of the wrongs previously done Just about the same time and during frequent appeals from the senators and representatives that the tax laws had to be overhauled, the President sent a report to congress It was a report by the New York Power authority, charging the power interests with some weird misdoings I happen to know some of the folks on the staff of the power authority and I feel that they know just about as much about the power problem as I dowhich is to say they are pretty dumb about the situation Of course, those alleged economists have brilliant ideas about reformmg America, and I arri dumb about that, too Further While this power authority report was being emblazoned upon the front pages of newspapers, President Roosevelt was holding long conferences with Wendell Wilkie and Fred Carlisle, who personalize the power trust, if there be a power trust Mr Roosevelt was talking with those men in an effort to get the large power interests to go ahead with construction and expansion pro grams to provide work for unemployed The political strategy of blaming everything on big business worked well for a Different time, just as the Picture ld demagoguerv about Wall Street used to inflame thousands, when a politician orated and slapped his legs with widely swinging arms But the picture is different now The attack on business has become a mill stone on business and it has crushed little as well as bigand since there are so many more smaller ones than there are trusts and monopolies, members of congress are hearing about it from men whom they went to school with at home But what is to be done Let congress repeal about five hundred laws that force business to pay more for the privilege of doing business than it gets out of its whole volume reduce or revise the direct taxes and bring the thousand and one items of tax out in the open so the people can see and know what they are paying cut out forty or fifty of the silly experiments that were worked up by the coterie of individuals who are constantly feeding Mr Roosevelt halfbaked and cockeyed schemes for spending money and thereby reduce the federal expenses these and many more of honest purpose can be done If they are done, business again can employ workers and as it employs work ers, they come off the relief rolls, and as Ohey get wages, they buy This means profits and profits mean tax receipts by the treasuries of state and nation To show how some of these taxes come about, I am told that Herman Oliphant, general counsel to the secretary of the treasury, promoted the ridiculous tax on undistributed profits of corporations When it was pushed through congress Mr Roosevelt said it would force corporations to declare dividends of all of their earnings and he was for it It did just that But when the corporations had distributed everything to their share holders and their volume of business fell off, they had no money left to tide them over until business picked up again Hence, some of them are on the verge of bankruptcy I do not know where Mr Oliphant got the idea, or how he sold it to Mr Roosevelt I do not know of any business connection that Mr Oliphant ever had with any impor tant corporation It is important, however, to note that Mr Oliphant has made no move whatsoever to defend this brain child that turned out to bo such an unwanted baby And while writing about Mr Oliphant, it may bo noted that until Secretary Morgenthau came onto the scene, there was never any need for a general counsel to the secre tary of the treasury f Western Newspaper Union 3 WHOS NEWS THIS WEEK By Ltmutl F Pa Hon m m MEW YORKIf President Rafael Leonidas Trujillo Molina of

So were off to be married tots all right with me, Jerry ield approved fervently Brooke, whose face was pressed against the back window of the roadster, twisted round in her seat Dont be foolish, Jerry Of course were not That was a red herring drawn across our trail Just why the red herring The ironic note in his voice gave her a chill tremor of dismay she didnt care for the way in which his eyes narrowed as they peered through the wind shield She protested Dont speak like that, it makes me shivery and goodness knows my teetTtaWfairly chattering now She turned lb peer from the rear window No car in sight yet Can you go a little faster Not without a risk of skidding off the causeway and breaking our necks Cant you see how the snow isplastering the wind shield The squeegee barely moves Why the haste While IrA telling you Ill keep watch The Incitement began upon my return from the play She told himof leaving her town car in tJsgarage, of stopping in the purple groom under the hemlock to look at the lighted windows of the stone houses crouched on the ledge herceath quickened as she repeated the words of the man who had produced the newspaper clipping Its the picture of the dame who said He was a swelldressed fella Ill have to date her up That was what the Cassidy girl said about the man they suspect robbed Mrs Hunt Fields voice was sharp, his personal problem was submerged in a mounting tide of excitement The car shot ahead like a whippet un leashed I know that now The certainty as to who he was flashed through my mind while I was dressing, and the suspicion that he might be at the Other House tonight to lift thats the technical term, isnt it Mrs Gregorys gorgeous dia monds Why didnt you phone the police With Henri in the house I may be a slow thinker but Im not absolutely dumb And the suitcase A touch of theater I thought if one of the gang saw us starting, he might suspect he had been discovered, but if he heard what I told Taku he would feel secure Elopements happen every day Not in my young life, Jerry Field retorted crisply They maintained a breathless, alert silence until the roadster turned a corner into a street which had an air of lonely spaciousness Just ahead bulked the combination jail and police headquarters, gloomy and ponderous Brooke commanded breathlessly Listen to me, Inspector The man who robbed Lola Hunt is serving supper at the Trent hhouse on the point Inspector Bill Harrison smiled, a curious smile Wish Id known this before, Miss Reyburn Ive just come from the point, following a tip I had Whats the dope on this bandit Is it the same guy you saw at the Supper club It must be, Inspector Tonight Before she had finished telling of the alleged waiters remark about Maggie Cassidys pic ture, machinery was crackling again and the man at the microphone was broadcasting distinctly Calling car 1942 Car 1942 Car 1942 Go to Trent house on point Inspector will meet you Calling car 6784 Car 6784 Car 6784 Go to Trent house on point Inspector will meet you Inspector Bill Harrison was out of the room before the man at the microphone had completed the call One of the officers turned over two discs on the Utable the

When X burst in upon them in this gown, they may think Im crazy Hurry 1 We dont know what is going on at the Other House Field slipped his arm within hers as they mounted the snowy steps Ill stick around and wait till you call me Dont shiver, sweet thing Youre not afraid of the in spector, are you Afraid No Havent X been crossexamined by him almost ev ery day since what Sam calls our late unpleasantness Its just the Reyburn temperament Her satin sandals skidded treacherously in the corridor as she confronted policeman whose nose, crisscrossed with a network of fine veins, had the effect of a red stop signal Wheres the inspector I must see him Matter of life and death, she confided breathlessly In her excitement she caught the mans arm and shook it He scowled at her, looked beyond her at Jerry Field his expression mellowed Inspectors just come in Hes m the radio division Go through those swinging doors up them stairs to the tower Brooke was through the doors before the man had finished speaking Three or four men leaning over a great Ushaped table looked up as she entered the room With a mufc tared exclamation, the inspector left them and came forward A man sitting at a telephone said something in a low voice to an officer before a microphone Tubes in the broadcasting apparatus cracktad into life He said slowly ana distinctly Into the mike Calling car 3131 Car 3131 Car 3131 Jerry Field was pacing the lower corridor when she reached it Its about time you appeared, Brooke I was just coming up to look for you What do we do next Back to the party of course The wind, swirled her short hair, clutched at her satin skirts, tugged at her velvet wrap as they went down the jail steps As Jerry Field tucked the robe about her wet feet he looked up Snow had settled in the brim of his soft hat, whitened his shoulders Lets make a break for town, sweet thing, and make that yarn you told Taku the truth The expression in his eyes, the break in his voice hurt her She said unsteadily Please, Jerry I cant care for you that way Take me back quick ly, will you We mustnt miss Sams Party Oh Sam Sam is your whitehaired boy Hes all that you Rey burn women think of or care about I believe youd sell your soul for him After one look at his grim mouth and gloomy eyes, Brooke snuggled into her corner of the seat They sped in silence through the night Toward the east the drab, heavy clouds were thinning before a spreading radiance I believe the snow is letting up, Jerry Look The moon is trying to break through Drive faster I cant wait to know what has happened Dont worry, youll get to the party all right tt Brooke ignored his gruffness Of course I want to get to the party Then I shant feel guilty that I dragged you away from the fun and congratulations Leave me at Lookout House X must change these soaked sandals before I join the festivities Here we are From the top of the steps she looked down at Field who was look ing up at her Im sorry, Jerry, she whispered softly, before she entered the house and closed the door behind her t He doesnt really love me, hes a spoiled boy who wants what he cant have, she reassured herself, as in her boudoir she changed her wet sandals She readjusted the rhinestone and emerald clip on her white frock, sprayed perfume on her hair, pow dered her nose, accented her lips She shook her head at the lookingglass girl Stalling, arent you, Brooke Reyburn You dread to face Mark Trent with that will youve kept back for two days, dont you Get going She crossed to the desk, found the key where she had hidden it Zero hour, she said aloud, and unlocked the drawer in which she had placed the wilL She looked down The drawer was empty CHAPTER XIV People coming, but not going music never stopping It was that kind

colorful crowd on the lower floor of the Other House, grinning at girls in lovely evening frocks who cooed over him frowning at men who tried to detain him From where he stood on the lowest step of the circular stairway, Mark Trent watched him All this praise is heady stuff for a boy, he thought, and then reminded him self that Sam wasnt a boy Why wasnt Brooke with him to share the honors She hadbeen the first to leave the hall, the man in charge of the parked cars had told him Where was Jerry Field He hadnt appeared either A curious premonition turned him cold Of course Brooke hadnt meant it when in answer to his sarcastic suggestion she had said she would end Fields torment Hadnt she There had been infinite determination in her crisp retort I will Tonight Seen Brooke, Mark Sam Reyburn inquired as he approached I want her to be the first to know that Im to get a contract that I have an option in my pocket and a check Mark Trent laid his hand affectionately on his shoulder Great stuff, Sam, great stuff I was sure that the New York pro ducer was hooked when he spoke to me Sam grinned Offered you the lead in a Broadway production, didnt he Hes a publicity hound Think of the headlines Leading Insurance Executive Leaves Lucrative Business for the Stage Will you do it What do you think Hows the party going, Mrs Gregory Mark Trent smiled at the woman whose blazing tiara on her marcelled white hair, and plastron of diamonds on her purple velvet gown dimmed what sparkle life had left in her tired eyes She answered crisply Listen to the hubbub and you wont ask the question Your party has brought out tails and white ties, Mark, thats a triumph in itself I always know what guests think of my parties by the way they dress for them She patted Sams sleeve My boy, your play is the sweetest, loveliest, most heartwringing thing Ive seen on the stage for years Wheres your sister I want to tell her what I think of it Thats what Mark and I wern wondering She left the hall before the rest of us she told me before the first curtain was rung up that she would dash home to change for the party Mrs Gregorys face grew a shade less colorful I dont like her not being here, I dont like it Ive been uneasy about that girl every moment since she testified at the inquest about the strange man who passed through her room the night of the filling station holdup The man hasnt been caught She knows too much They may try to put her out of the way The strong lenses in Sams hornrimmed spectacles magnified the horror in his eyes What an awful suggestion, Mrs Gregory What a gosh awful thought It was an awful thought, but improbable, most improbable, Mark Trent assured himself With diffi culty he cleared his voice of hoarseness before he accused Youve been reading mystery stories, Empress, confess now, havent you Just the same, well start on Brookes trail at once What is it, Kowa He spoke sharply to the servant who had wormed his way through the crowd of dancers who overflowed from the library to the hall Much obliged Madame Gregorys car here Chauffeur say to tell her storm bad, very bad She better get home He know she not like to be out in storm Tell him to wait I wont go till I know where Brooke is, Mrs Gregory snapped Did you see Miss Reyburn come in, Kowa Mark Trent inquired Of course, the suggestion that she was in danger was absurd, but it was getting under his skin The Japs slanting eyes narrowed to mere slits He put his lips close o Mark Trents ear and whispered Miss Reyburn tell Taku she and Mr Field go to marry, thank you She carry suitcase, sir What Had he shouted the word Marks eyes flashed from Mrs Gregory to Sam Reyburn Both were regard ing him anxiously, but apparently neither had caught the content of Kowas whisper Has anything happened to Brooke Mrs Gregorys lips twitched, tears filled her eyes Sara caught Trents arm What did Kowa say What did he say Mark Trent steadied his mind He must reply to their questions What should he say He couldnt blurt out the truth here Perhaps Brooke had flung that remark at Taku for dramatic effect But the suitcase Mark Mark Why dont you answer He looked down into Mrs Gregorys eyes, terrified now Brooke is perfectly safe She Theres Field Ask him where she is He saw her last Go get Mm, Sam Go get him No need, hes coming as fast as he can push through the dancers, and Jed Stewart

grounds that their invention was the greatest disaster that ever happitd to mankind This is a lot of baloney The Wright Bros, were not to blajne for the present generation uMiig their invention for dcstiuction anymorti than Henry Ford i f the auto is sometimes an unconsciousness partner in crime The air plane was bound to come and if the Wrights had not invented it som one else would have There is absolut tly no way by which you can stop the march of progress The plan to have servicemen vote in th election next fall seems to have gone haywire It was never anything but a fond dream According to the constitution each tate makes their own election laws and as a result the election rules vary greatly and the elections in some cases are not w i ways held on the same date Several plans were advocated, such as having the sfcrvicenven vote by proxy have som one here cast their vote for them In the end the southern Derr ocrats who object to federal control of the elections because it would abolish their poll tax on voters, joined with the Republicans to kill the bill and reerred th matter back to the individual states which means that ery few soldiers will vote who are overtas and that is white the mai r ity o them will be at that time The only way the soldiers can vote is to have the governors call special teas ions and change their election laws which few governorn seea willing to do Tiiere seems to be considerable criticism over the fact draft boards i are induoting married men while , j , single men employed ip factories On very glad to have us come Theyj work are exeropt The

President MoKlnley's second message to a> congress is in substance as follows: To the senate and house of representatives: It fives me pleasure to extend greeting to the fifty-fifth congress assembled In regular session alt the seat of government, with many of whose senators and representatives I have been associated in the legislative service, Their meeting oc- «V»rs under felicitous conditions, justifying sincere congratulations and calling for our grateful acknowledgment to a benefloent Providence which has so signally blessed and prospered us as a na- 'Won. Peace and good will with all the nations of the earth continue unbroken. A matter of genuine satisfaction is the growing feeling of fraternal regard and unification of all sections of our country, the incompleteness of which has too long delayed realisation of the highest blessings of the union. The spirit of patriotism is universal and is ever increasing In fervor. The public questions which now most engross us are lifted far above either partisanship prejudice or former sectional differences. They affect every part of our common country alike, and permit of no division on ancient lines. Questions of foreign policy, of revenue, (he soundness of the currency, the inviolability of national obligations, the improvement of the public servlee, appeal to the Individual conscience of every earheet citizen, to whatever party he belongs, or in whatever section of the country he may reside. The extra session of congress, which closed during July last, enacted Import* ant legislation, and while Its full effect has not yet been realised, what it has already accomplished assures us of Its timeliness and wisdom. To test its permanent value further time will be required, and the people, satisfied with its operation and result thus far, are „ In no mind to withhold from it a fair trial. C u r r e n c y l e g i s l a t i o n N e e * * * . Tariff legislation having been settled by the extra session of congress the question next pressing for consideration is that of the currency. The werk of putting our finances upon a sound basis, difficult as it may seem, will appear easier when we recall the financial operations oX the government since 1066. On the 20th day of June of that year we had outstanding demand-liabilities in the sum of 1728,-868,447 41. On the first of January, 1*1», these liabilities had been reduced to -tMM&,4ft>tt. Of our interest bearing obligations, the figures are even more striking. On July 1* IMC, the principal of the interest bearing debt of the government was t&3IS,ttl,m. On the first day of July, 1893, the sum had been reduced to yrc.flftyftQ, ^y-nf aggrqgVft reduyrtlgiL of $1,747,294,108. The interest bearing debt of ring drains upon the gold reserve? If no xurther legislation is had. and the.policy of selling bonds is to be continued then congress should give the secretary of the treasury authority to sell bonds at long or short periods, bearing a less rate of Interest than is now authorised by law. I earnestly recommend, as soon as the receipts of the government are quite sufficient to pay all the expenses of the government, that when any of the United States notes are presented for redemption In gold and are redeemed In gold, such notes shall be lfept and set apart, atvl only paid out in exchange for* geld, This is an obvious duty. If the holder of the United States note prefers the gold and gets it from the government, he should not receive back from the government a United States note without paying gold In exchange for tt. The reason for this ia made all the more apparent when the Jovernroent Issues an interest-bearing ebt to provide gold for the redemption of United States notes—a non-interestbearing debt. Surely It should not pay them out again except on demand and for gold. If they are put out in any other way they may return again to be followed by another bond issue to redeem them—another tnteres-'-bi tiring debt t^ redeem a non-interest-hearing debt. In my view It Is of the utmost importance that the government should be re* lieved from the burden of providing ail the gold required for exchanges and export. This responsibility is alone borne by the government without any of the usual and necessary banking powers to help itself. The banks do not feel the ntraln of gold redemption. The whole strain vests upon the government, and the sise of the gold reserve in the treasury has come to be. with or without reason, the signal of danger or of security. This ought to be stopped.

It was stated that at this Juncture our government was constrained to seriously Inquire if the time was not ripe when Spain, of her own volition, moved by her own Interests and every sentiment of humanity, should put a stop to this destructive war ana make proposals Of settlement honoraolo ;o hercelf and Just to her Cuban colony. It was urged that, as a neighboring nation, with large Interests in Cuba, we could be requirod to wait only a reasonable tlm« for the mother country to establish its authority and restore peace and order within the borders of the Island; that we oould not contemplate too indefinite u period for the accomplishment of this result.

With the great resources of the government and with the honorable example of the* past before us, we ought not to hesitate to enter upon a currency revision which will make our demand obligations leas onerous to the government, and relieve our financial laws from ambiguity axid doubt. The brief review of what was accomplistied from the close of the war to 18SS, makes unreasonable and groundtoes any distrust either of our financial ability or sound aeon; while the situation from USS to Wft must admonish congress of the Inuaoaiate necessity of so legislating as to make the return of the conditions then prevailing impossible. There are many plans proposed as a remedy for the evil. Before we can find the true remedy we must appreciate the real evil, i t is not that our currency of every kind is not good, for every dollar of >t is good—good because the government's pledge LB out to keep it so. and that pledge will not be broken. However In the country, with sufflcii the expenses of the government, we may feel no Immediate embarrassment from our present currency; but the danger still exists, and will be ever present, menacing us so long as the existing system continues. I concur with the secretary of the treasury In his recommendations that national banks be allowed to issue notes to the face value of the bonds which they have deposited for circulation, and that the tax on circulating notes secured by deposit of such bonds be reduced to one-half of one per cent per annum. I a'so join him in recommending that authority be given for,, the establishment of national banks with a minimum capital of $25/.00. This will enable the smaller villages and agricultural regions of the country to be supplied with currency to meet their .needs. I recommend that the Issue of national bank notes be restricted to the denomination of ten dollars and upward. If the suggestions I have herein made shall have the approval of congress, then I would recommend ttvarfc-Matlonal banks be required to redeem their notes ih^gold. Tbe Cuban <)Wntlon. The most important problem with which thlB government ia now called upon to deal pertaining to its foreign relations concerns its duty toward Spain and the Cuban insurrection. Problems and conditions more or less in common with those now existing have confronted tills government at various timed in the past. The story of Cuba for many years has been one of unrest; growing discontent; an effort toward a larger enjoyment of Hiberty and self-control; of organized resistance to the mother country; of depression after distress and warfare, and of ineffectual settlement to be followed by renewed revolt. For no enduring period since—th_e enfranchisement of the continental posseslIonlP1^©"*—Spain—la- the. has the condition 'of the guaranty of our purpose to keep the pledge will be bast* shown by advancing toward its fulfillment. The evil of the present system is found In the great cost to the government of maintaining the parity of our different forms of money. that is. keeping all of them at par with Eld. We surely can not be longer heedis of the burden this Imposes upon the people, even under fairly prosperous conditions, while the past four years have demonstrated that it Is not only an <xpeoalve charge upon the government, but a dangerous menace to national credit. It la manifest that we must devise some plan to protect the government against bond issues for repeated redemptions. We must either curtail the opportunity for \ •peculation, ansae easy by the multiplied redemptions of our demand obligations, or Increase the gold reserve for their redemption. We have WO.OWMW of currency which the government, by solemn enactment, has undertaken to keep at par with K i d . Nobody Is obliged to redeem In gold t the government. The banks are not required to redeem in gold. The government Is obliged to keep equal with gold all its outstanding currency and coin obligations, while its receipts are not required to be paid in goM. They are paid In every kind of money but gold* and the only means by which the government can with certainty get gold la by borrowing. It can get it in no other way when. It nsoat needs I t The government, witaoat any-Axed gold revenue, is pled—I -to • maintain gold redemption, which It has ateaally and faithfully done, and whioh. under the authority now given, it will continue to d a . ^ The law which requires the government, after haa^nx redeemed its United States notes, to pay them out again as current funds, demands a constant replenishment of the itold « a e r v e . Tnto i s especially^ee I In times of business panic and when the ' revenues are meuBolent to meet tbe expenses of the government. At such times 1 the government baa no other way to sup--1 ply Its deficit and maintain redemption but through the Increase of its bonded western continent Cuba or the policy of Spain toward Cuba not caused concern to the United States. The prospect from time to time that I the weakness of Spain's hold upon the island, and the political vicissitudes and embarrassments of the home government might lead to the transfer of Cuba to a continental power, called forth, between L828 and I860, various emphatic declarations of the policy of the United States to permit no disturbance of Cuba's connection with Spain unless in the direction of independence or acquisition by us through purchase; nor has there been any change of this declared policy since upon the part of the government. The revolution which began in 1863 lasted for ten years, despite the strenuous etforta of the successive peninsula governments to suppress it. Then, as now, the government of the United States testified its grave concern and offered its aid to put an end to bloodshed in Cuba. The overtures made by Gen. Grant were refused, and the war dragged on, entailing grat loss of life and treasure, and increased injury to American interests, beldes throwing ennanced burdens ot neu- --..... „.^„ tv,\a government. In 1878 Indeed precise propo avoid embarrassment to that government All that was u*ked or expected was that some safe way might be speedily provided and permanent peace restored. T h e D O B S ' ">.". e HI* P r o m i s e s . The reply to our note is In the direction of a better understanding. It appreciates the friendly purposes of this government. It admits that our country Is deeply affected by the war In Cuba, and that its desires for pi ace ere jest. It dec'ares that the present apanisn government 's bound by every consideration to a change of policy that should satisfy the United States and pacify Cuba within a reasonable time. To this end Spain has decided to put Into effect the political reforms heretofore advocated by the present premier, without halting for any consideration in the path which in Us judgment leads to peace. The military operations, it is said, will continue, but will be humane and conducted, with all rosrard for private rights, being accompanied by political action leading to the autonomy of Cuba, while guarding Spanish sovereignty. This, It is claimed, will result In investing Cuba with a distinct personality; the island to be governed by an executive and by a local council or chamber, reserving to Spain the control of the foreign relations, the army and navy and the judicial administration. To accomplish this the present government proposes to modify existing legislation by decree, leaving the Spanish cartes, with the aid of Cuban senators and deputies, to solve, the economic problem and properly distribute the existing debt. In the absence of a declaration o£ the measures that this government proposes to take in carrying out Its proffer of good offices is susgostn that Spain be left free to conduct military operations and grant political reforms, while the United States, for its part, shall enforce its neutral obligations and cut Off the assistance which it is asserted the insurgents receive from this country. The supposition of an indefinite prolongation of the war is denied. It is asserted that tfte western provinces are already well <nigh reclaimed; that the planting of cane and tobacco therein has been resumed, and that, by force of arms and new and ample reforms, very early and complete paciueatlon is hoped for, The immediate amelioration of existing conditions under the new administration of Cuban affairs is predicted, and that, without the disturbance and air occasion for any change of attitude on the part of. the United States. C h a r g e * Atfuinat t n c l e S a w . Discussion of the question of the international duties and responsibilities of the United States as Sparn understands them is pregefrted. <wlrh mi appaient disposition and writers interna!Ion which have been observed by natlona of dignity, honesty and power, when Tree1 from sensitive or selfish and unworthy motives, I fail to find In the insurrection the existence of such a substantial political organisation, real, palftaU* and manifest to the world, having the forms and capable of the ordinary functions of government toward its own people and to other states with courts, for the administration of justice, with i local habitation, possessing such organization of force, such material, such occupation of territory as to take the contest out of the category of a mere rebellious insurrection, or occasional skirmishes and place It on the terrible footing of war, to which a recognition of belligerency would aim to elevate it. The contest, moreover, is solely on land: the insurrection has not possessed itself of a single seaport whence it may send forth Its flag, nor has it any means of communication with foreign powers except through the military lines of its adversaries. No apprehension of any of these sudden and difficult complications which a war upon the ocean is. apt to precipitate upon the vessels, both commercial and national, and upon the con- , sular officers of other powers, calls for the ; definition of their relations to the parties : to the contest. "Considered as a question of expediency, I regard the nccordance of belligerent rights still to be as unwise and premature. as I regard it to be, at present, indefensible as a measure of right. Such recognition entails upon the country, according the rights which flow from it difficult and complicated duties, and requires the exaction from the contending parties of the strict observance of their rights and obligations. It confers the right of search upon the. high 'Seas by vessels of both parties; it would subject the carrying: of arms and munitions of war, which now may be transported fr< e!y and without Interruption In vessels of the United States, to detention and to possible - aelatire; It would givo rise to countless vexatious questions, responsibility for act done by the insurgents, and would invest Spain with the right to exercise the supervision recognised by our treaty of 1795 over our commerce on the high seas, a very large part of which, in its traffic between the Atlantic and the gulf states, and between all of them and the states on the Pacific, passes through, the waters which wash the shores of CuTaa. The exercise of this supervision could' scarce fail to lead, If not to abuses, certainly to collisions perilous to the peaceful relations of the two states. •- .1....1 J^..W* „„ tn what reto charge us with failure in this regard. This charge is without' any basis in fact It could not have been made If Spain had been cognizant of t£e,constant efforts this government has made at the cost of millions, and by the employment of the administrative machinery of the nation at command to perform Its full doty, according to the law of nations.

The near.fjuture.will demonstrate whether the Indispensable condition of a rlgh'teWe peace, just alike to the Cubans and to Spain as well as equitable to all our Interests so Intimately Involved in the welfare of Cuba, Is likely to be attained. If not. the exigency of further and other action by the United States will remain to be taken. When that time come* that action will be determined in the line of indisputable right and duty. It will be. faced, without misgiving or hesitancy. In the lbjht of the obligation this government owes to It- . •elf, to the people who have confided to It the protection of their Interests and honor, and to humanity. Sure of the right, keeping free from all offense ourselves, actuated only by upright and patriotic considerations, moved neither by passion nor selfishness, the government will continue its watchful care over the rights and property of American citizens, and will abate none of Its effort* to bring about by peaceful agencies a peace which shall be honorable and enduring. If it shall hereafter appear to be a duty imposed by our obligations to ourselves, to civilization and humanity, to Intervene with force, It shall be without fault on our part, and only because the necessity for such action will be so clear as to command the support and approval of the civlllied world.

I laid before the senate a treaty signed that day by the plenipotentiaries of the United States and of the Republic of Hawaii, having for its purpose the Incorporation of the Hawaiian Islands as an integral part of the United States and under Its sovereignty. The senate having removed the Injunction of secrecy, although the treaty Is still pending before that body, the subject may be properly referred to In this message, because the necessary action of the congress is required to determine by legislation many detail* of the eventual union, should the fact of annexation be accomplished, as I believe it should be. . While consistently disavowing, from a very early period any aggressive policy of absorption in regard to the Hawaiian group, a long series of declarations through three-quarter* of a century has proclaimed the vital interest of the United State* In the independent life of the islands and their intimate commercial dependence upon t i l s country.

The present insurrection broke out in February, 1895. It is not my purpose at this time to recall its remarkable increase or to characterize its tenacious resistance against the enormous forces massed against it by Spain. The revolt and the effort* to subdue it carried destruction to every quarter of the island, developing wide proportions and defying the efforts of Spain for its suppression. The civilized code of war has been disregarded, no less so by the Spaniards than by the Cubans. The existing conditions cannot but fill this government and tbe American people with the gravest apprehension. There is no desire on the part of our people to profit by the misfortune* of Spain. We have only the desire to see the Cubans prosperous and contented, enjoying that measure of self-control which is the inalienable right of man, protected in their right to reap the benefit of the exhaustleas treasures of their country. gp«la's Cr«el P o l l e r .

R e c o g n i t i o n of B e l l i g e r e n c y U n w i s e . Of the untried measure* there remain only: Recognition of the insurgent* as belligerents; recognition of the independence of Cuba; neutral intervention to end the war by imposing a rational compromise between the contestants, and intervention in favor of ' one or the other party. I speak not of forcible annexation, for that cannot be thought of. That by our code of morality would be criminal aggression. Recognition of the belligerency of the Cuban insurgent* has often been canvassed as a possible, if not inevitable step, both rn regard to the Previous ten years' struggle and during the present war. I am not unmindful that the two houses of congress, in the spring of 1896, expressed the opinion by concurrent resolution that a condition of public war existed* requiring or Justifying the recognition of a state of belligerency ia Cuba and during the extra session the senate voted a Joint resolution of like import, which, however, wa* not brought to; a vote in the house of representative*. In the presence of these significant expressions of the sentiment of the legislative branch K behooves the executive to soberly consider the condition* under which so important a measure must needs rest for justification. It Is to be seriously considered whether the Cuban insurrection possesses beyond dispute the attributes of statehood which alone can demand the recognition of belligerency in its favor. Possession, in short, of the essential qualification* of sovereignty by the insurgents, and the I conduct of the war by them according to the received code of war. are not leas tan-' portent factors.toward the determination of the problem of belligerency t h e * are the influences aad ooneleejueaoe* o f the straggle upon the interns! poUty of the recognising state. The wise uttecanoe* of President Grant In his memorable meeaae* ef December f. 1*75, are signally relevant to the present situation In Cuba, and It may be wholescene now to pecan" them. At that time a ruinous conflict had for as van years wasted tbe neighboring island. During all those year* an utter disregard of civilized warfare and of the just demands of humanity, which called for the expression* of condemnation from the nation* of Christendom, continued unabated. Desolation and rain pervaded that productive region, enormously affecting the commerce of all commercial nations, but that of the United State* more than any other by reason of proximity and larger trade and Intercourse. At that Juncture Gen. Grant altered these words, whioh now, as then, sum up the elemeat* of the sjroh* lew. vessel from our shores in violation of our still further pertinent considerations ap laws would seem to be a sufficient an- ] p e a r > ln t h e code of nations there is no such thing as a naked recognition of belligerency unaccompanied by the assumption of international neutrality. Such recognition, without more, will not confer upon either party to a domestic conflict a status not heretofore actually possessed; or affect the relations of either party to other states. The act of recognition usually take* the form of a solemn proclamation of neutrality which recites the de facto c6nditloh of belligerency as its motive. It announces a domestic law of neutrality in the declaring state. It assumes the international obligations of a neutral in the presence of a public state of war. It warns all citizens and others within the jurisdiction of the proclamation that they violate those rigorous obligations at their own peril and cannot expect to be shielded from the consequences. The right of visit and search on the sea* and seizure of vessels and cargoes and contraband of war and good prize under admiralty law must, under International law, be admitted as a legitimate consequence of a proclamation of belligerency. While according the equal belligerents rights defined by public law to each party.ln our ports, disfavors would be imposed upon both, which, while nominally equal, would weigh heavily ln behalf of Spain herself. Possessing a navy and controlling the ports of Cuba, her maritime right* could be asserted, not only for the limitary Investment of the island, but up to the margin of our own territorial waters, and a condition of things would exist for which the Cubans, within their own domain, oould not hope to create a parallel; while Its creation through aid or sympathy from within our domain would be even more impossible than now with the additional obligations of international neutrality we would perforce assume. The enforcement of this enlarged and enormous code of neutrality would only be Influential within our own jurisdiction by land and sea, and applicable by oar own instrumentalities.

The questions which have arisen between Japan and Hawaii by reason of the treatment of Japanese laborers emigrating to the islands under the Hawaiian- Japanese convention of 1888, are in a satisfactory stage of settlement by negotiation. This government has not been invited to mediate, and on the other hand has sought no Intervention ln that matter further than to evince its kindliest disposition toward such a speedy and direct adjustment by the two~*overelgn states ln interest as shall cOmport with equity and honor. It is gratifying to learn that the appreheaeions a t first displayed on the part of Japan lest the cessation of Hawaii's national life through annexation might impair privilege* to which Japan honorably laid claim, have given place to confidence in the uprightness of this government and in the sincerity of its purpose to deal with all posalblle ulterior ouestiea* I* the broadest s a i n t of friendliness.

"Improvements Completed* The improvements on the mala line of the Baltimore and Ohio, west of, and between Martinsburg, W. Va„ and North Mountain, were completed November 1st They cover a distance of nearly four miles, starting three miles west of Martinsburg, and extending some distance west of Myers Hole, which is near the North Mountain station. At Myers Hole the line was changed, taking out some very objectionable curvature, and the roadbed raised nearly fifteen feet, eliminating two grades of 42 feet per miles which came together at Myers Hole, and substituting therefor <• an almost level track. This point on the road has always been a dangerous one ana many freight wrecks have occurred there. Apart from doing away with the dangerous feature of two sharp down grades coming together, as was the case in this instance, the saving in operation of the road by the change will be very large, as it enables the tons per train to be greatly increased and reduces the liability to accident to the minimum. At Tablera the road bed has been lowered about thirteen feet, and the same at Tabbs, besides taking out objectionable curvature and reducing the rate of grades at these points from 42 feet per mile to ten feet per mile, thus increasing the cars that can be hauled per train. Though these Improvements have cost Quite a sum of money, the expenditure is fully justified by the great saving in operation. Stead the Advartteesaaats.

Once safe on English soil Caussldiere became himself again. He forgot his abject terror and resumed his old manner. Then, before he had been in London many days, arose the question: How was he to subsist? He had little or no money, and such talents as he possessed were not at that time in mneh demand. A happy thought struck him—be would go down to Scotland, hunt out the rich mistress of Annandale Castle, and perhaps secure some help from her sympathy—or her fear. Thus it befell thai he arrived quietly one day in the town of Dumfries, and within a few hours of his arrival heard that Marjorie was alive and dwelling with her mother at the Castle. Up to that moment he had been in doubt whether the woman he had betrayed was alive or dead—indeed, he had scarcely given her a thought, and cared not what fate had befallen her. But now it was very different. She lived, and by the law of the land was his lawful wife... . His plans were soon laid. He determined to see Marjorie alone, and If she was obstinate and unforgiving, to use what power he had over her to the utmost, with the view of securing present and future help. On reflection, he had not much doubt that he would soon regain his old influence over bjBr; for in the old days she had been as wax in his hands, and her character had seemed altogether gentle and unresisting. He reckoned without his host. These seemingly feeble and too faithful natures, when once they gain the strength of Indignation and the courage of despair, assume a force of determination sometimes unnown and foreign to the strongest and moat pasetnuate men. • •• a. * • As matters had turned out, however, *'. was not with Marjorie herself that the Frenchman had had to reckon, but with her life-long friend and protector, John Sutherland. This pertinacious young hero whom he had always hated, had now fully asserted his authority In giving him the first sound thrashing he had ever received in his life Baffled, bruised and bleeding, livid with mortified rage, Caussldiere remained for some time where Sutherland left him, and when he at last found speech, cursed freely in his own tongue. Then he paced about madly. calling Heaven to witness that he would hare full and fierce revenge. "I win kill him," he cried, gnashing his teeth. "I will destroy him—I will tear him limb from limb! He has outraged me—he has profaned my person —but he shall pay dearly for it, and so shall she—eo shall they all! I was right—he Is her lover; but he shall find that I am master, and she my slave." Presently he cooled a little and sat down to think. What should he, what could he do? Of his power over Marjorie and the child there was no question; by the laws of both England and Scotland he could claim them both. But suppose they continued to set his authority at defiance, what then? They were comparatively rich, he was poor. He knew that in legal strife the richest is generally the conqueror; and, besides, while the war was waging, how was he to subsist? Then he bethought him of his old hold upon Miss Hetherington, of his knowledge of the secret of Marjorie's birth. It was useless to him now, for the scandal was common property, and Mother Rumor had cried it from house to house till She was hoarse.' The proud may had faced her shame, and had overcome it; everyone knew her secret now, and many regarded her with sympathy and nrHnpasaton. For t h e rest, she set public opinion at defiance, and knowing the worst the world could say or do, breathed more freely than she had doae for years. Thus there was a o hope for her. Inaeed, look which way he might, he saw a o means of succor err iwveage. As be sat there, haggard and furious, he looked y e a n older, hot Ida face still preserved a certain nnmartawas. Suddenly fceeyraftg ay a g a t e s * If resolved on hnsawmntn action. As he did ao he seemed t o hear a> voice mnrmur- IBC his name. -Cfcoseidiere!" He loomed toward the window; and saw there, or m m an t» see, csose pressed agalast the pane, a bearded human countenance gaalag t» upon hiss, / H e etruggled Vke a drunken sftan, glaring back at the face. •Was i t realMy, er dream? Two wild •yea seat hie, then vanished, and the into the shadow of the room, held his hand upon his heart, like a man who had received a mortal blow. CHAPTER XXXVIH. AUS8JDIBRE remained in the room for some time, but as the face did not reappear, his courage in a measure returned to him. At last he took up his hat and left . the house. He was still very pale and glanced uneasily from side to side; he had by this time forgotten all about the child, and Marjorie, too. He went through a procession of by-streets to the police station, saw the inspector—a grim, bearded Scotchman—and demanded from him police protection. "Protection! What's your danger?" asked the man, politely. "I am in danger of my life!" said Caussldiere. ~ He was very excited and very nervous, and the peculiarity of his manner struck the man at once. "Who's threatening ye?" he asked, quietly. The repose of the stranger irritated Caussldiere, who trembled more and more. "I tell you I am in mortal peril. I am pursued. I shall be killed if I do not have protection, therefore I demand assistance, do you hear?" Yes, the man heard, but apparently did not heed. He already half suspected that the foreigner before him was a madman, and upon questioning Caussldiere a little more he became convinced of it. After a short but stormy scene with the Inspector he walked away, revolving in his mind what he must do to make himself secure. Of one thing he was certain; he must leave Dumfries, and resign all hopes of obtaining further assistance from Marjorie or her friends. He must remain in hiding until political events veered round again and he could return to France. He hurried back to his hotel and locked himself again in his room. He drew down the blinds and lit the gas; then he turned out all the money he At a i i o'clock la the morning tfc% maldi with a Jug of hat Wets* ta haw hand, tripped an the stairs a a d a^ookad) gently at CaussidleTe's bedroom dace.

I M k b U a g like a leaf he sank hook was possessed of, counted it carefully over, and disposed it about his person. His next care was to dispose about his person any little articles which his portmanteau contained; then he drew from his pocket a small box, fixed on the false beard and mustache which it contained, and, having otherwise disguised himself, stood before the mirror so transfigured that he believed even his dearest friend would not have known him. By the time all this was dome it was getting pretty late in the day and close on the departure of the train he ha** decided t» take. He listened; he could hear nothing. He walked boldly out of the room, and having quietly locked the door and put the key in his pocket, strolled leisurely out of the inn and down the street unrecognised by a aouL He went straight down to the railway station, took a ticket for the north and entered the train, which was about to start " He had a carriage to himself; the first thing he did, therefore, was to throw the key which he had taken from the room door out of the window; then he traveled on in comparative peace. It was somewhat late in the evening and quite dark when he reached his destination—a lonely village, not far from Edinburgh. He walked t o the nearest and quietest inn, and took a bedroom on the third floor, y That night he slept in pemde. He remained In the village for several days, and during that time be kept mostly to his room. On the night of the fourth day, however, he rang for the maid, who, on answering the bell, found him in a state of Intense excHememt. "Brim* me a time-table,- he said, ~or tell me when there Is a train from this place."

CHAPTER X X X I X T WAS not nati) a f t e r Cmnssudier* was laid in his grave that the news of his d e c e a s e > reached Marjorie. She read in a Scottish, newspaper » description of tho mysterious death of a French gentleman in a village near Edinburgh, and suspicious of tho truth she traveled to the place in Sutherland's company. The truth warn speedily made clear, for among the loose articles found on the dead man'* person were several letters in Causal* diere's handwriting, and an old photograph of herself taken in Dumfri es. \ It would be false to say that Marjorie rejoiced at her husband's death; it would be equally false to say that it caused heT much abiding pain. She was deeply shocked by his sudden end, that was all. - Nevertheless, she could not conceal from herself that his removal meant life and freedom t o herself and to he/ child. While he livid there would have been no peace for her in this world. He was buried in a peaceful place,' a quiet kirkyard not far from the Sea; and there, some little time afterward, a plain tombstone was erected over has grave, with this inscription: Sacred to the Memory of LEON CAU88IDIERB, Who Died Suddenly in This Village. June 16, IS—. "May he rest in peace." Marjorie had Unplaced there, in per- \ feet forgiveness and tendamess o f heart. And now our tale is almost told. T h o figures that have moved upon our little stage begin slowly to fade away, and the curtain is about to fall. What little more there is to say may be added by way of epilogue In as few words aspossible. In due time, bmt not till year had pawed old lover, John Sutherland.

During their al little Leon remained at the Castle with his grandmother, who idolised him ao the heir of the Hetherlmgtoms Om their return they found the old lady had taken a new lease of life, and was moving about the house with much of' her old strength and a little of her 6Uk temper.

Gaa is used in place of oil la a new illuminating lamp, the oil being placed in„.a reservoir above rthe lamp and allowed to flow through pipes over the flame to generate gas as the pipes become heated, the gas expanding and forcing itself through the slotted burner. ' *• "1 * A new attachment for sewing machinas te a ripper to assist In cutting up cloth or ripping seams, a sharp steel blade being clamped on the needle bar of the machine to work up and down as the machine runs, thus leaving both hands free to feed the cloth across the cutter. A simple speed indicator for bicycles and railway engines consists of a weighted arm drawn toward the center of the shaft on which it is mounted by asprlng attached to the side of the case tbe revolution of the shaft growing it out and pulling an indicator around on the dial. Invalids will appreciate a new device designed for their use which has a I base to rest on the bed and support a | tilting frame with braces to set it any angle, an extension bracket being attached to the side to hold a shelf which can be swung around in front of the Invalid at meal time. An Ohio woman has invented a simple invalid's ohair, which has a hinged back and foot rest supported on the body of the chair by a pair of curved metal arms with notches cut on one aide to set the back and foot rest at different angles, the notches fitting over the cross rods of the chair. Canalboats are to be towed by a new electric device, consisting of a trolley wire mounted on poles along the canal, with brackets attached to the poles just under the wire to support a toothed track over which a carriage supporting the motor runs, the rope being attached to the side of the carriage to draw the boat. Bicycles can be carried on trolley cars without interfering with the passengers by a new bracket which is intended to be attached to the dashboard of the car and project outward, with recesses in the top to receive the frames and slots in the bottom to grasp the wheels and keep the bicycles from rocking. In an aerial railway recently designed a metallic rail is insulated on poles with a cigarshaped balloon holding a carriage above it and attached to the rail by wheels running under it, the car-eontainlng a motor with a large bLaded propeller at the rear to drive the car by an electric current taken from the supporting rails. Variable throwcraaks for bicycles have an eccentric disk mounted in the end of the cranks, with the pedal shaft m o o t e d on one edge sc* -that the foot is nearer the crank a shaft when r i s i u g - t h a n i t i s gc* ing down, thus increasing the leverage without Changing the size of the circle around which the pedal runs. A New York woman has obtained a patent on an attachment for skirts by which they may be lifted on eroesiag muddy places on the street, a series t& cords being attached to the skirt at the back and sides, with the apposite ends running through an opening in the back of the waistband and around to the front to draw the skirts by pulling up the cords. A continuous ice-cream freezer has an ice chamber, the cream cylinder set in the center, the cream being placed in a reservoir above with a pipe running into one end of the freezer, the opposite end being closed until the •ream freezes, when it is opened and the cream forced out, allowing more cream to flow in from the reservoir, the cylinder being revolved by hand or a motor. At one time salmon was quite a common article of food in Germany, so much so, in fact, that at Meissen, in the Elbe valley; the farm servants on taking treBh situations would stipulate that they should not have salmon for dinner more than three times a week. The empress of Germany ftnda pleasant recreation daily in the not man practice of keeping a diary, in which she records her royal experiences, but jealously guards the volume under lock and key, not even allowing the emperor a glimpse of its contents. SCRAPS OP FASHION. Gowns of white satin, trimmed wl(h clouds of chiffon, yards of passementerie and clusters of artificial flowers, are seen frequently at the English races this summer. Grass-green satin covered with black mousseiine de sole is one of the most popular things of the summer. An effective white chiffon gown is gathered down each seam, on to its white taffeta foundation, where appear trails of pearls and crystal passementerie. The newest shirts for morning wear are trimmed with white frills on a colored foundation; for instance, a very neat model of pale-green or mauve or crimson linen would have the central box-plait of white cambric and frills of the same at each Bide, with cuffs and collar of white linen. A buff-colored cloth bicycle gown has Its double seams strapped with black. The full divided skirt is marked by three black pearl buttons near the top of each seam. The waist is basqueshaped, fitting smoothly and closely, and is decorated with double seams. Three black pearl buttons fasten over a heart-shaped plastron of fine batiste, covered with tiny frills of Valenciennes lace. Some new''cycling gloves with silk backs and leather palms have been brought out, but the sHk is too warm for a hot, sunny day. The real doeskin glove is, after all, the best for cycling, as it holds its shape, cleans easily and will stand the hardest grip of the handle bar. Imitation of doeskin is worse than nothing, but good leather is to be found at a reasonable price and will wear for a long time. The traveling cloak, which has usually been a creation too hideous to be adopted very generally, has evolved into a thing of actual beauty. One recently seen was of light gray cloth, lined with pale yellow brocade. Pinked flounces of eloth edged the neck and front opening, and in the midst of Uiese ruffles ran a tall of butter-colored Chantjilly lace; "a stole-like—arrangement of brocade, In which gray, yellow and green blended, gave the finishing torch to this smart wrap., The beretta hat still holds its sway over feminine affections, and with the addition of Increasingly large ospreys. An elaborate edition of the style made of green mousseiine de soie has been figuring at an eastern watering plaee. A large blue bird, with outspread wings a-nd tail erect, is fixed in front. Behind" this an immense aigrette of paradise feathers nods engagingly over a cluster of amber roses which rests on the hair. Another notable hat Is of shot crimson taffeta under black mnnsKPiine de soie. A rolled drapery of both materials composes the brim. A bjgh cluster of crimson and pink roses turns up the leaf on one side, behind which a very high tuft of goura feathers dyed black shows bravely. The tendency to extreme height in hat trimmings is especially noticeable abroad. PEOPLE.

Trlala tor "leae maieete"—which, in prac^e^, m,eau| criticlftm of the emperor— are ao common in Germany that Wjlliam II. appeara to be a law unto himself. A weU«kftown diplomatist at" flrma, however, that it ia not so. -A writer in the Living Church saw this aign on the door of a Chinese laundry in Chicago; "Please help us to remember the Sabbath day t o keep it holy by bringing your clothes t o the laundry before ten otlock on Sundays."-- Only one of the Chinamen was acquainted with the1 English language, and all were apparently heathen. The irony was obvious, a n d n h e lesson for people calling themselves Christians quite as plain. There is a time-honored notion that a nap after maalu pmmotftfi rtlffeadoiy and, filled with this belief, a large" number of persons habitually take a nap after dinner, and think they are doing precisely the best thing tor their health. There are other good authorities, too, who claim that sleep during digestion elouds the mind and predisposes those who indulge in it to apoplexy and stupidity. A French scientist has made this subject a study, and by exhaustive experiments lias discovered that sleep-does not aid digestion, but rest and-a horizontal position are of great advantage in promoting the proper conditions for perfect digestion and assimilation of food. '.-• — ' " J i — r The Society for checking ,|h* Abuse of Public Advertising, founded four years ago in England, lasts been highly successful in awakening the sentiment of reform. The Thames Riyer is by act of parliament protected from any advertising whatever o n its banks; a series of gnWo-oooka talis attention to ascent advertises* disfigurements of beasitiful scenory; toe council of London hae condemned some monster boarding* erected for advertising p^irposes, and the superior courts have enforced the prohibislon of sky signs. America gtsjafo so^less la seed of such an association ead such a sentiment "The way in whjoft I shall help," e»- claisjaed a young matron recently, "is by -gover buying sudh articles as I see advertised amid natural scenery or tn objectionable methods. They shall be lmssossed upon my mind as something to be shunned," What a great mistake it is to content that time taken from toil for sleep and reeroatloo is time lost! There is no greater fallacy, for sleep and recreation form, as it were, the cement put in to All up the joints in order to keep out t h e weather and preserve tke edifice. A man does not necessarily require rteoes, honors or oftee—although the majority of us naturally have an ambition to attain one o \ t h e s c desiderata—but he does need food, work and sleep. It follows, therefore, that he should .use every means to promote life, and among these there are throe things to be kept in mind. When a man denies himself sleep,food, and the exercise work, gives both to brain and body, lie iM robbing his life of its full term. Let him be cheerful also, jtor the body is like an engine—it •will run well and long if it is well oiled. Contentment and cheerfulness are the oil which keeps the nerves from wearing o u t Special Aeont A. J.

Icy'rails, an almost impenetrable fog, a misunderstanding of orders or gross carelessness on the port of someone, were the principal factors in the cause of a terrible collision of two new heavy trolley ears of the Detroit & Pontlao eleotrlo railway. The plaoa where the accident occurred also largely contributed to the serious results. A southbound ear i n charge of John Savage superintendent of the road, started down a steep hill, about midway between Pontine and Birmingham, about the same time a northbound car left the top of another hill o half mile nearer Birmingham, l In the sweep between the hills the track curves somewhat and it was at this point that the two cars, well loaded with human freight, collided while going at full force and three souls were instantly burled into the presence of their Maker, A heavy fog hung over th'is valley and prevented the motormen from seeing each other's car until they were quite close together, and then the glare of ice which covered the tracks and the momentum of the down grade prevented the proper servioe of the brakes o n d the oraah jvas terriflo and was heard at the farm houses on the adjoining hilltops.

Ja F. Ge Jackson There is a growing demand in the Lyceum tor the Cartoonist. The old time chalk talker has given place to the man of versatile attainment who can "keep the ball rolling'1 with ready wit and wholesome humor, while sketching in rapid succession pictures which rivet the attention, please the eye, and point a moral. L. W. Foad was for many years cartoonist, for the Syracuse Herald and other New York newspapers and built up a wide reputation by his skill in producing likenesses, by the originali ty and strength of his ideas and the generalty of his humor. As an entertainer he makes use of these traits very successfully, and presents an evening of rare enjoyment. His program consists of humorous conceptions, caricatures, moral and political cartoons, scenery and story illustration. The cartoons are not mere sketches, but w*H drawn, elaborate pictures in toll co'or. As a story teller and impersonator Mr. Ford is particularly strong, and he poseaaes a voice of rare carrying power, so necessary in a cartoonist, while lie >peaks with great forcefnlness and magnatism. Altogether, it is an evening full of bright ness and fun, yet through it all runs a 'back-bone" of thought and helpfulness. Snfficiently oatchy to be popular; sufficiently brainy to be uplifting.

Those who believe that nature give* various-warnings "In th« tall true* th« winter ^B going to be severe, are predltitlng a strenuous feeaaon tor snow and fee and low temperature. The; say that the wild birds which stay In the nor^a during the winter have unusually thick plumage. The shells oi outs are. reported to be heavier than they are when a mild winter is coming, %nd chestnut burrs are also of tn« "old-fashioned winter" hind, If the** weather prophets >«re correct Furbearing animals are more warmly clad, according to. the. juune .wiseacres, „than they are before "open" winters, fijud the bones of .geese make the same prophecy. It Is all very interesting, but men who make the study of the weather their life work and bring to bear upon it all of the learning and scientific resource* of the age, utterly reject th^se much trusted warnings. They are certain that there is nothing in pie whole theory of animal preparations, conscious or unconscious, for differences in winters. They do not believe that the trees grow more bark or put thicker burrs on nuts because the winter fa going to be severe. In fact, the scientific experts who deal with the climate seriously and with Infinite pains. In all civilized countries, year after year, are sure that there is .no nature sign language which tells the character of the weather months in advance. According to ' revised' estimates"1 by the geological survey, the coal remaining in the United States amounts to some three thousand billion short tons. The figures are Inconceivable, but what they signify can be readily understood. In a word, the supply la sufficient to last for more than 7;000 years; presumably, at that, allowing something for present wasteful methods of production. To be sure, something less than one-half of the supply 1B accessible only, with difficulty, according to known methods of extraction. Still, with whatever exceptions, the revised estimates give a more hopeful outlook than the public had been led to believe were" possible from figures heretofore submitted. The remarks of President Swain to the students at the opening of Swarthmore college the other day contain much of sound sense. "Do not form the habit in college of spending large sums of money," said Dr. Swain to the freshmen. "When one has learned the value of money and has a' large degree of earning power, this matter will usually take care of itself. College students are not, as a rule, large money earners, and are usually spending money earned by others. It Is usually a safe rule not to spend much money until ^ou have learned how to earn it." It will astonish many to learn from government reports that the Indians are Increasing in number instead of decreasing, and that they are becoming more-^elf-supportlng. This gratifying improvement is laid U> - the greater facilities afforded for the education of boys and girls In the government Bchols and in the system-^ apportioning lands, says the Baltimore American. It is time that some measure of justice were being meted out to the original possessors of the land and efforts made to turn them from roving savages into useful and self-respecting citizens.

A million-dollar fire, the worst In the history of Kalamazoo, was brought under control at 6 o'elock Thursday, after banning for over sit hours through a square in the heart of the city's business district. One hundred and sixty guests of the Burdlck hotel In the city were driven, scantily clad, into the streets, and as other hotels were crowded, many of them were obliged to remain in the icy streets. The hotel, with nearly a dozen other business establishments, was destroyed. Miss Nina Harrigan, night telephone operator at the' Burdlck, was the heroine of the fire. When the flames broke through the arcade adjoining the hotel and the building caught fire, she stuck pluoklly to her post and notified every,guest in the hotel by telephone of the danger. For nearly half an hour while the blase waa raging, with flremen rushing past her with lines of bote, engines puffing outside and a babel of contusion about her, the girl sat calmly at her exchange ringing one by one every room frl the building, and telling the guests to make their escape. She did not leave until firemen told her she would lose her life if she remained longer.

President to Htsr Them. Senator Smith, of Michigan, has arranged for President Taft to give a. hearing some time in the future to fishermen of Saginaw bay and a part of Lake Huron who object to the report of Dr. Davis Starr Jordan on international fisheries. The Michigan fishermen say that conditions in Saginaw bay and pari of Lake Huron are unusual and should be handled in a different way from other fishing grounds along the Canadian borders. Season's .fthoot a Good One. Game Warden Pierce gave out statistics as to the number of deer hunters have shipped south across the Straits of Mackinaw, where his deputies have been keeping tab.

The Michigan Agricultural college has drawn $18,000 from the state treasury, and there Is joy at the in stitutlon.

Mrs. Charles Shookman, wife of r Kalamazoo teamster, was visltlnr friends In the country when she re celved the following telephone mes sage from her husband, who had re mained at home: "Come home; 1 am going to die."

Pleading guilty In the munlclpa' court at. Battle Creek, Myron Young a wealthy farmer, was fined $100 oi 9ft days In jail for having adulterated milk sold by him on a local mill route. This is Young's second arrest on the same charge In the past twe years, the first hsvlng resulted in hlr paying a fine of $25. The complain' was made by O. C. Howe, deput> state milk inspector. Owing to th* condition of other milk sold them re cently, wholesale arrests of local milk dealers are threatened. Tt has been learned that Samue' Frisbie. who was acquitted at For Huron of the charge of slaying Loul Rosenburg, at the Flats, had deter mined to end his>Ufe If the verdlr had been against him. After his n lease Frisbie showed Sheriff Wager sell 12 strychnine tablets which tv had concealed in his cell, and whic' he stated he would have swallowed I? case of a conviction. It is believer he secreted the tablets while he wa being treated for typhoid fever lath hospital several wteki ago. There has been a sudden and unpleasant realization at Bluenelds or government strength ' and Insurgent weakness. President Zelaya has outwitted Gen. Estrada, and the latter's chief hope is in American intervention. It turns out that the conference sought by Gen. Vasquez, of the government troops, near Rama and which the insurgents had interpreted as a sign of yielding on the part of Zelaya's troops, was a blind intended to secure a delay of the expected battle until the loyal army had Becured a decided advantage of position. It is also learned that while Zelaya had kept a scattered force before Rama, his real army of 3,000 men was hurrying by forced marches toward Bluefields. The report that a descent on this city from Rama was possible only by river Is now known to he untrue. Estrada endeavored to cover his alarm by Informing the correspondents at the front that all was tranquil with the prospect that Vasquez and MaJ. EVa would surrender. Ten minutes after he had talked with the reporters the insurgent leader had his chief diplomatic aide, Adolfo Diaz, on the telephone, and was telling him what he believed to be the situation In truth. To his aide he declared the Americana should send more marines ashore, as Vasquez apparently had outflanked him. Estrada also expressed the opinion that a request should be made of the United States government for protection to the 150 Americans In Blueflelds Diaz rushed to United States Consul Moffat with the new intelligence, and the consul assured him that Commander Shipley's marines from the United States cruiser Des Moines, with their six rapid fire gHns, would be able to control the situation here in the event that the loyal army suddenly surprised the city. ,-.- It wa?,recalled today that Eva, one of the government envoys at* yesterday's conference, was the man who .surveyed the 'telegraph line across the country, and that none knows better the hidden places through the forests, swamps and hills. If President'Taft is determined that Zelaya shall be deposed, it is believed here that the United States forces will find active participation in the struggle neceaaary, , 1 COUGHING BURST BLOOD-VKMCLr Says Danger Avoided and Curat Coigns in 6 Hours. * .A* w i t t « J * » sha medical press Btates thut toughing Is responsible for the burirrrng of blood vessels quite frequently.

Sitting in the middle of the floor, with a plaintive look about Its frayed ami seemingly weary buck, It bringB back a'tumultuous riot of sad recollections that time can never efface. Volumes of bitter anguish come to me when I arrive home in time to catch the milkman swiping the loose furniture around the place, and take off my shoes to avoid publicity, and strike my beBt toe against the rocker of the old vacant chair. Then, forgetting for the moment my unclad feet, I kick the chair on the other rocker.

"I was troubled with a severe Itching and dry, scrufy skin on my ankles., feet, arms and scalp. Scratching made it worse. Thousands of small red pimples formed and these caused Intense itching. I was advised to go to the hospital for diseases of the skin. I did so, the chief surgeon Baying: "I never saw such a bad case of eczema." But I got little or no relief. Then I tried many Bo-called remedies, but I became so bad that I almost gave up In despair. After Buffering agonies fort twelve months, I was relieved of the almost unbearable itching after two or three applications of Cutlcura Ointment. I continued its use, Combined with Cutlcura Soap and Pills, and I was completely cured. Henry Seirle, little Rock, Ark., Oct. 8 and 10, 1907." Potior Drug & Chom. Corp,, Sole Prop*, Boston.

Nothing, Indeed, was lacking, but something was present which he might well have spared—suspicion! The first year of bis married life bad been one long dream of bliss. Two people were never more perfectly matched than he and Counters Vera. But suddenly there came a change. Without imaginable cause, Vera's merriment ceased abruptly. She became grave, pensive, almost morose, and a hard, cold expression replaced the sunny smile that had hitherto played about her beautiful lips. Mishko was in despair. "What is the matter, sweetheart?" he asked. "Have I offended you in any way?" "You? Oh, you men! In your vanity you Imagine yourselves the cause of everything." "But this sudden change—" "Mishko, I wish you wouldn't notice every little trifle. It grows tiresome In time." She turned away sullenly, but he caught her and drew her to his knee. Then ensued the first unpleasant scene of their love drama. It was ended by Vera rushing wildly to her bedroom and locking and barricading the door against the enemy. Mishko went to the Jockey club and sought consolation in the companionship of old friends and old Amontillado. At two o'clock in the morning, when he came home, whistling and thoroughly consoled, a servant handed him a note and said that the countess had gone away. 1)o not be alarmed," she had writtern "I am not running away, though you deserve it. But my nerves are worn out and I must find rest*—where, 1 da not yet know; some quiet place In the mountains, probably. I shall be all right In a week. Please do not try to And me. You will not succeed and will only make me angry. Possess your soul In patience, Mishko, dear. It had to be, for your sake'and mine. In a week, dearest wild man, I shall be in your arms again. Meanwhile I send you my forgiveness and a thousand kisses." This note instantly dispelled Mlshko's slight exhilaration. In the morning he telegraphed to every one whom Vera would be likely to visit and, receiving only negative replies, resigned himself to his punishment. On the third day he happened to meet that good-looking but vapid fellow, Sokoloff, of the Russian embassy, who asked: "Any news from St. Petersburg?" "Eh?" said Mishko. "I]rom the most charming of countesses, I mean. She should be there by this time." "My wife! She is no more in St. Petersburg than we are." "Strange! She was in such haste." "When? Where? About v/hat?" "About her passport." "She applied for a passport? When?" "Friday morning." M^Bjjk^ wiped his brow. Though not exactly a sage, he was by no means a fool. He could put two and two together. Wfyen Vera had played her great Bcen«* she'had been in possession of her passport several hours. She had provoked the scene deliberately to afford a pretext for her sudden flight, He waited, but not patiently, and in tileepleas Rights he formulated a plan to pay her back in her own coin if ^ier explanation should be unsatisfactory or su^icioua. If she could act a part, so £>uld he. On the seventh day after her de- Vera returned, radiant as the lng even these, when one morning at breakfast, he-was, startled fey *e«lng in hib wife's face the same cold, hard, ominous expression that It had wont Just before the scene of 18 months before. He tried tP drive It away by Jests and affectionate words—both very artificial and equally fruitless. Vera's face seemed hardened to stone, and her heart also, for the few words which he wrung from her were uttetred in a tone that chilled him. He telephoned to the Russian embassy and received the answer he expected. Very well! He waa prepared. Now let the play begin! Of course it was not necessary for a lady of Vera's lively lmamingation to play the same comedy twice. This time the stage setting, dialogue and action were quite new, but the finale was the same—a nocturnal flight. In a sleeping car of the international express she slumbered without dreajning that her husband lay awake within a few yards of her, and on the following evening, when she peeped out of the troika which conveyed her from the station to a fashionable hotel on the Nevsky Prospect she failed to recognize her trim and elegant Mishko In the fur-wrapped occupant of a carriage close behind her. Mishko stopped at the same hotel and next morning stationed himself In a cab near the entrance. After waiting three hours he saw his wife come out and enter a troika. He followed her to a fine apartment house in Volshaya Btreet and to an apartment on the second floor, the door of which closed after her, almost in his face. In wild excitement he rang the bell and WBB admitted by a servant !n livery. As he entered he heard a scream and a sound of something falling to the floor, and through an inner doorway he saw Vera standing and at her feet —a broken-dental plate with two Incisors ! Man is a strange creature. Mishko, it might be supposed, would have shouted with Joy rit t tits' proof that his tormenting suspicions were groundless, but It was also a proof that Vera had decoived him In anotner way for years, and this new thought completely engrossed him. As they drove back to the hotel he listened with a very bad grace to her tearful explanation. It had happened when she was a schoolgirl in St. Petersburg—an accident in skating. Luckily no one had seen the damage except ber father, who had hurried her off to the best dentist in the city—the one she had Just visited—and nobody had ever guessed ber humiliating little secret. "Why need you go to St. Petersburg?" "Because there lived the one man who knew my secret, which I did not care to confide to another." Now or never was the time to learn the vhole truth. "How about that fellow?" he asked. "Who?" "That fellow. You know well enough. To speak frankly, I would have sworn that you came—" "To meet him? Here, In St. Petersburg? So that is why you followed me! O, my poor, dear boy, that was a master stroke of diplomacy! Do you know where he is? In Vienna! You see him and shake hands with him every day and have never had the BlighteBt suspicion. How could you? A respectable father of a family, a stiff, formal diplomatist, and quite uninteresting. I can't imagine what I ever saw in him to admire." "Who is he?" "Your friend Sokoloff of the Russian embassy." ^ "TW* * * m . Mishko!" she cried, ex- IfMfat ber arms. "*lt was less an embrace than a wrestling match. All he said was: "Where have you been?" "Do not ask, Mishko! If you love me.'dear boy. do not. remind me of that which I wish to forget. It is past and, gone and this moment is the commencement of a new life for us." "Serpent!" he muttered undor his breath, but ne made no audible reply and never again referred to his wife's eccentric flight. It did seem like a new life, for Vera apparently sought to atone for her action by redoubled effusiveness and docility. Vera's deceitfulner*, her well-acted comedy, still rankled, but he had nearly arrived at the point of forgiv- Extlnctlon of Chinaberry Tree. The Atlantic Coast line has taken steps looking to the extermination of the chinaberry tree. It has long been claimed that the tree is a breeder of the white fly, and as the government has taken a hand and the experts have declared that the pest is bred to an alarming extent in the chinaberry tree, we can but commend the action of the Coast line in the matter, and we hope the step they have taken will encourage others in this country to follow suit. The Coast line has given orders that every china tree along its right of way in Florida be cut down. Name Towers for King and Queen. The news that the king and queen have consented to allow their names to be assigned to the western towers of Truro cathedral is extremely welcome. Many of our cathedral towers bear names connected with some saint or some great local notability, tint we. believe it is a new departure of recent years to give them a royal aspect.

Three Excellent Examples of the Pre vailing Modes Are Here Shown— Gowns That Are Adapted to All Figures. A glance at the pictures of three French gowns, given here, reveals the consummate art of their designers in the management of draperies. The season has demanded hints of the pannier and o r e r i k i r t ami drapery of some sort on almost every gown, but t h e s e draping* must be arranged to follow the lines of the figure and the gown must be graceful, else milady will h a v e none of it In Pig. 1 a gown is shown In which the pannier idea does service that is excellent for the woman of slender figure. No other should attempt to wear 1L The p a n n 1 e r "drapery is fullest about the hips and extends to the bot- . , torn of the skirt, the beautiful lines of the high baca are preserved by a panel applied over the skirt, apparently with the lower end hanging free. Here the opportunity for decoration Is taken advantage of, by a scroll pattern ot soutache braid matching the gov" colon A sleeve, entirely cos with the braid, and the introduction of braid on the bodice makes a rldh and quiet effect whtcn is very elegant For those of plump figure the model In Fig. 3 is a happy choice. This is the popuw a s h e r w om an style and the gown sets to the figure in long, almost unbroken l i n e s . The drapery, however, is brought below the knees in front, and really falls halfway to the ground at the back — a device which lengthens the figure most effectually. An added advantage lathe lack of tullness at the waist line. There is not so m u c h as a wrinkle anywhere. This requires proper cutting, and it will be noticed that a girdle joins the bodice and skirt, to provide tor the adjustment of the drapery without a plait or gather. No decoration appears on this gown except "" For Greater Warmth. Capes are cold things when worn in winter, but being fashionable, they are popular in spite ot colds and coughs. Here is a hint for making them more comfortable: Make a pair of loose sleeves of silk the color ot lining or outside of cape, as preferred. The latter is more serviceable. Wad them, finish on top and bottom and attach to the cape with a ribbon or elastic To adjust sleeves put them on, throw cape over them and tack near shoulder line. Take care that they do not pull *he cape out of shape. at the yoke, and everything afeofet R proclaims Its adaptation to the worn* on who w lanes to loojfc. taller or mors slender than she is. " Fig *., was not designed tor a, special kind or figure, but to show the introduction ot the overskirt idem at Its best A drapery which simulates a drop skirt and overskirt so cleverly. , in a g o w n all-in-one, proclaims the artist. This model is suited to any of the light weight fabrics in silk or wool and for a demi-dress c o s - tume cannot be excelled tor general excellence of design. The yoke Is in heavy lace. A model in black foulard having a tiny scattered dot in gray was made up this way. Toe yoke in this case waa of black braided net over a deep crimson satin lining. Bands of black volvet ribbon were set across the back, over the shoulders and across the bust Jet ornaments were applied to them. This was a really brllliapt and unforgettable gown, although made of so simple and In ex penal VJ a fabric. JULIA BOTTOM LET. SUBSTITUTES GOOD AND BAD Those That Are Allowable and Others That Should Be Distinctly Frowned Upon. It Is not snobbery, hut the last remnant of a Justifiable theory that objects to the substitution otf white hunnle for ermine and black kittens for fox and lynx. The full-grown black cat la not a matter for so great regret, and herein rests the foundation of the whole tale of the understudy. If the hardy black cat be called' Into requisition, and should its skin be of sufficient toughness to hold together for a season, the cat is, in itself, a no more despicable animal than the Tox, and, letting aside the question of the killing of said cat for his fur, he should, be fairly well received, if, however, he be but kitten and not able to render ap that cental* wear and tear for value received, he should indeed be shunned. Some women have t:.e courage of their convictions, and. when moneyless, are not averse to the warmth supplied by common, ordinary black cat, even although he be not absolutely lynxlike in appearance, and provided he will hold together for a season. Things that wear, in other words, are not miserable imitations, tut reputable understudies. PaBte Jewelry is rn every case the dubious substitute for unattainable elegance, whereas the semi-precious stone, with its wealth of color, set in simple metal, is the durable, the desirable understudy. —"»« soon)* mnmm THE FARMERCOF CENTRAt CANADA R«AP WHHAT AND <• RICHES. The High Handshake. The customs of society often hire queer origins. Some years ago the members of a somewhat inferior set took to shaking hands on a level with their chins, a mode copied from royal parsonages who, suffering from an abscess under the arm, avoided the pain. fal friction entailed by shaking hands in the ordinary manner and resorted to a higher level. This was observed by some lesser lights, from whom the custom spread.—Home Notes. Corset Covers. Beautiful corset covers may be made of a combination of lace and embroidery, the latter being applied to the lace in the shape of medallions. Yokes in corset covers are quits popular, but they usually are made the Bole decoration of the plain nainsook cover. Gilt on Neckwear. With Midas-like perseverance fashion has invaded the realm of neckwear and placed upon dainty white lace and linen a golden touch. And It is lovely!

Mr. Bailey-bought the* 640 acres of land near Grand Coulee two years ago. He Immediately prepared the whole section for crop and this year has 600 acres of wheat and 40 acres of oats. The wheat yielded 19,875 bushels, and the oats yielded 4.750 busnels. The whole of the grain has been marketed and Mr. Bailey is now worth 117,550 from t h e grain alone; He bought the land at $18 an acre, and the other day refused an offer of $35 an acre, just a $17 adv»n«e-jr0r,the.itim.e of his purchase. The land cost $11,320 in the first instance. Here are the figures of the case.—Land cost, 640 acres, at $18, $11,320. Wheat yielded 19,875 busnels, at 84 cents a bushel, $16,695. Oats yielded 4,750 bushels at 28 cents a bushel, $855. Offered for land, 640 acres at $35 an acre, $22,400. Increase value of land, $10,880. Total earnings of crop. $17,550, together with increase in value of land a total of $28,540. It Is interesting to note the figures of tlie yield per acre. The wheat yielded 33½ bushels to the acre, and oats 118.7 bushels to the acre. The figures are a fair indication of the average throughout the district. * ,.i Agents of the Canadian Government in the different cities will be pleased to give you information as to rates, etc. Decollette.

QUAD. [Copy riant, l*», by American Frass aiattosuj For ten year* aunt Hannah D a j . widow and raaldant ot tbe villas* of Clyde, had bean % sort of terror to most of the residents. She lived alone and was well to do, and she Just doted on lawsuits. AT tbe end or ten years Elder Thomas waa about the only cltlsen of the town worth sulug who had not been sued. His time was close at hand, however. He had two hives of bees in his back yard, and they had •warmed earlier than was looked for. Not finding new hives ready, they had passed over into Aunt Hannah's orchard and stung her and her cow and pig before going farther. Bhe decided to start a suit for damages. Elder Thomas had never had a lawsuit nor been summoned as a juryman or witness. Be had a dread of the law, and the knowledge that be was going to be sued set him trembling. It was no use for him to go over and see • u n t Hannah. She never changed her mind nor settled a case. He heard of her decision one morning, and he spent the forenoon worrying over it. He was •till worrying after dinner when he •et out with hoe on his shoulder to work in a cornfield half a mile outside the village. On the edge of the. field was a creek, and on the banks of the creek was an old shed in a tumbledown condition. The elder had been hilling up' corn for about a quarter of an hour when a voice called to him from the shed. He raised his head and listened, and it called again. He dropped his hoe and took a few steps forward, and the voice cried out: "Stop, Elder Thomas! Stop right where you are!" "Who is It?" "It's me—Aunt Hannah/' "Are you in the shed?" "Tea." "For the land's sake, bnt what are ran doing way out here, and what's happened to your" "You keep your place right where you are, and I'll tell you. I came out to pick some blackberries, and after I got hare the fit took me to go in swimming in the creek. I undressed in the shad and paddled round for half an hour, and when I came out of the water I found that an Infernal hog had Stewed all my clothes to rags. There ain't a piece left aa big as my hand. FVe been waiting here a whole hour." "But what are yon going to do?" asked the elder as he scratched the back of his head. "Don't ask fool questions! I've got «o get home, haven't I? And I can't gat home without some clothes. I'd seed clothes even If I waited till midnight" "I guess you would; but, you see, 1 esa't Lend you any of mine. All I've got on Is shirt and trousers." "Who wants to borrow any of you? I don't, I'm sure. 1 want you to go home and tell your wife about it and bring me back a bundle of her clothes. You don't s'pose I'd go back to town tn trousers, do you? What you sueak Ing up Higher for?" "I want to sit down on that log and talk to you a mlnit. You sent me word this morning that you was going to sue me about the bees." "Yes, 1 did. It was all your fault, and you'll have to pay smart money for It." It struck the elder as he sat down on the log that the situation was in bis hands, so to say. The spot waa a quarter of a mile off the road and very retired. There was hardly a chance of the woman finding another messenger for two or three days. Accident might enable him to accomplish what delegations and committees had failed to. "Well, why don't you go?" asked Aunt Hannah after a long minute. "Do you think I want to stay here all the afternoon? There may be more n forty hogs in my garden by this time. There are tramps around, and tnebbe some of 'em are robbing tbe house." "Yes, jest as you say," replied the alder, "but I think we'd better have a talk before l go after any clothes. Why should 1 go after clothes for a woman who's going to make me trouble?" "You didn't take care of them bees." "And you didn't take care ot your clothes." "But I've never stopped a lawsuit and never will." "And I've uever lugged clothes for a woman fool enough to let a hog chaw up her duds I'll go back to work, and you can get some one else." Aunt Hannah was spunky, and she stood out for balf nu hour. Then she called the elder back to the log and agreed not to begin suit against him. "That ain't enough," he replied. "I've been thinking. You've made lots of folks lots of trouble, i f • time you stopped the lawsuit business. If you can't see it that way you'll have to get out of this trouble as best you can. I'm going to start for home soon, and Tl\ be neighborly enough In case 1 meet any tramps on the way to send 'em here. They may lend you some clothes." "Elder Thomas, you are a brats! 41'posing It was your wifer J31X wife doalt. sue folks." There were threuts uud argumei rs a*d entreaties, but the elder stood Or in. and the victory was bis.

Owing to tbe iutereat taken in the milk cases by the general public, 1 deem it my duty t o g i v e the reasons for dropping the nine remaining milk cases; also to explain the law and the course that will be followed by the Dairy a n d F o o d Department, s o that the milk producers may avoid further trouble. I held a consultation uu D e c . 7, with A . C. Bird of the dairy ami food department and lie e x p l a i n e d that it was not the policy I of the Btat* to drop cases after they were started but, as o n e case has been tried vigorourly in three trials, he was willing to have the remaining cases dropped if I d e e m e d best. T h e r e is nc revenge iu the law. There ought to be some g o o d acompliuhed when a prosecution is started and I am satisfied that so far a s the milk producers are c o u - cernee in this county, that tiiey wiLI be au careful in the h a n d l i n g of their milk uow aa they would be p r o v i d i n g we should try every suit to the tiuish . "No oue caren to be brought into the limelight. T h e purchasers of miljs. h a v e a right to protection under the l a w , but if ad possible good has beeu obtained from prosecuting the oue case it would be an unnecessary expense to push the matter further at this time. T h e Dairy a n d F o o d Department will \ without doubt take samples of milk in the j future, and as a large number of farmers h a v e asked men iu regard to the law, 1 ahull e x p l a i n it at this time, as I am sure no c u e wants to get into trouble. T h e law provides that if milk Hold or offered for sale at the factory, contains lean than 3 per cent of Butter fat or less than 1J p e r cent of milk solids or less than 1.029 of specific gravity it w i l l be deemed to be a violation of the l a w . H o w e v e r , the Dairy and F o o d department will start no prosecutions unless the analysis shows that water has been added or that the cream or part of it has been r e - m o v e d . I t is claimed by the State Chemist that h e c a n tell whether water has been put into the milk or whether cream has been taken off. T h e People have been in t h e milk business i n this County for a great many years and it has become a very important business, yet there has been some talk that in the summer time ice has been put in the milk by some to keep it c o o l ; that of course melts and produces water. On tha other hand some of t h e people have felt that it was no harm to take off cream for the coffee, etc. If cream is takan off the top of the can the test for butter fat will show a decrease and trouble might occur. W h e n the State makes a test aud as a result of the analysis it shows that either the cream has been t tken off and water added, I have no choice, it is my duty to prosecute; y e t I a m sure that if the p e o p l e of the county thought that there was any danger of trouble they would exercise great care, and caution the membert of the family a n d everyone who has a n y t h i n g U) d o in handling the milk so as to aroMf^ny trouble. If the analysis of the milk shows that it was in the same conditiou as when taken frgm the cow, the State department - i n - forms me that their policy is to notify t h e producer and n o prosecution will be started. T h e sample of milk is taken at the factory because that it is the place where the title of the milk is transfered, t h e milk is weighed, the farmer is given credit a n d that is the place where the factory exercises its right of acception or rejection in case the milk has soured. I write the above so that no farmer in the county need feel that h e is in danger unless water is a d d e d or cream taken off. I wish to say further that in case the State should take a s a m p l e of milk and the producers should find that some one else had tampered with the milk, drank o u t of the can or anything of that kind, if it was called to my attention aud proof furnished I am sure that s o far an the state or myself is concerned we would not care to do a n y o n e an injustice, but the matter could b e adjusted without the publicity or e x p e n s e s of a trial.

A man diuatiiBed , \m endeavors is a man tempted to sadness. And in the midst of winter, when hii life run* lowest and he is reminded of the empty chain of.his beloved, it is well he should be condemned to the fashion of the smiling face.—Robert Louis Stevenson. * + ¥ MO W many old recollections and how many dormant sympathies does the Christmas time awakenl Happy, happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childish days; that can recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth; that can transport the sailor and the traveler thousands of miles away, back to his own fireside and his quiet home. I ill your glass again, with a merry face and contented heart. Our life on it, but your Christmas shall be merry and your New Year a happy one.—Charles Dickens. T T T ^ E M E M B E R that as surely as in that T ^ baby life at Bethlehem there lay the <-*• *-^ power which has run through all the world; the power which makes Judea burn like a star forever; the power which has transfigured history; the power which has made millions of men its joyous servants; the power of the millenniums yet to be, JO surely in the humblest soul's humble certainty that it does love Christ, there lies enfolded all the possibility of the most perfect sainthood.—Phillips Brooks. TJ T IS a good thing t«"> observe Christmas Day. The mere marking of times and seasons, when men apce to stop work and make merry together, is a wise and wholesome custom. It helps one to feel the supremacy of the common life over the individual lite. It reminds a man to set his own little watch, now and then, by the peat clock of humanity, 'which runs on sun time.—Henry VarrDyke. At the Birthplace of Christ. At last f am come to the market, place, at one end of which stands the church of the Nativity, marking the holy, lowly birthplace. There Is only one entrance from the street, and it is so low that in entering one ia forced to bow the head, and assunio a posture of reverence. Down the dark and winding stairs, slippery with the drippings of countless candles, T make my way to that lowly place into which first came the Light of the World. The Grotto of the Nativity is a cavern beneath the church, long* narrow, an4--low-ceiled, with pendant lamps of precious metal and rare workmanship lighting the gloom. Tho floor is marble, and wonderful old tapestries, pictures artd silk hangings cover the walls. A marble cradle in one corner' commemorates the manger; and in a recess on one side a dozen or more hanging lamps Hshi herds abiding in the field, keeping wa over their flock U P P O S E a note came on Christmas Day saying not, "I tend my love and best wishes with this spool-box," but, "I want you to know that your patience, or courage, or tenderness, during this last year, will help me to liva more bVavely and courageously this year."

Antoinette ran downstairs and shrieked for help. Neighbors ran to the rescue. A man rushed into the room with • heavy crowbar, and dealt the anlma' a crashing blow across the head. Tber a woman appeared with a red hot Iron and laid It heavily across the dog's nose. With a howl he loosened his jaws. The man caught the child, and alt within the apartment succeeded in reaching the hallway and slammed the door, leaving the dog a prisoner. Patrolman Thomas Wedder heard the dog's cries, and was told of the affair by neighbors. Patrolman Thomas Oeevy Joined him, and with drawn revolvers the two men entered the kitchen. Creevy adyapced. guarding ,himself with a chair. As the brute sprang he was met by a bullet in the chest. Several shots were flred without effect and the dog landed on the chair held In CreeTy's hands splintering It. Finally the anitrial ran into a bed room and crawled under the bed. The men flred two more shots and he rolled over as though dead. Without warning the animfcl revived, grabbing Creevy In the right thigh, tearing a gash of several Inches and cutting the leg of his trousers entirely off. Then he sprang for the last time and his Jowls were within a foot of Wedder's throat when the last shot struck him squarely under the eye, killing him. The time of the fight was 2C minutes.

Dr. Woods Hutchinson of New York city says: "Ilqughly speaking, the incipient tuberculosis patient can buy as many chances of Fresh air and cure as he has money." The percentage of deaths from consumption among the poor is 100 per cent, higher than among the well-to-do and the rich. Sixty-live per cent, of the consumptives in the United States are too poor to provide proper means for treatment. They must either bo placed in a sanitarium or a hospital where they can be cured of their disease and where they will be removed from the possibility of infecting other members of their families, or the loss resulting from neglect to care for these poor consumptives will be twice or tbr.ee times as great as w^uld bo the case if they arc properly housed In institutions."

AORlCTTtTUfcAX, ENGINEER WIBCON1I11) Tbe Klhg system of ventilation consists of two sets of floes, one s e t provides fresh air, while the other furnishes an escape for the vitiated air. The (reth air flues should be placed not mdre than ten feet apart and located in the exterior wall of the barn. No fear of putting in too many inlets, since (fee greater the ( number tbe more effect!^ the,yentMaJtlon.,Tne outlet may Include one or more dues, but should be so located as to provide the quickest means for removing the foul air. All stable walls and ceilings should be nonconductors of heat and cold, otherwise moisture will collect as frost In Cold weather and drop as water In moderate- weather. In a station barn the flues for taking out the foul air are two in number, one midway In each side wall. These flues pass upward to the left, where they meet a central chimney. There is also a ventilator flue opening from the ceiling into the bottom of the chimney for more rapid.movement of air In hot weather to keep the stable cooler. In winter this ventilator would sacrifice a large amount of warm air and the opening Bbould. be kept closed until the stable becomes too warm. The central flue is 40 Inches in diameter and rises 50 feet above the floor. The lateral flues which join the main chimney are 18 by 24 inches. There are two objects In bringing the ventilator shaft near the floor. First, remove the waste products of the lungs produced by breathing, as this foul air always settles near the floor and animals are compelled to breathe it with the impurities. Second, to dispose of the cold air in the winter rather than the warm. The coldest air in a room is always on the floor and the warmest at the ceiling. The walls of the barn are made of studding, sheeted up both InBlde and out with matched lumber and building paper. Several of the spaces between the studding are used for fresh air flues. We have used this system for 11 years and have found It to be entirely satisfactory. Wrong construction of foul air flues has sometimes led to the failure of tbe system. Some farmers make them like any ordinary boxed openings and then condemn the system because of their mistake. To construct the flue of this kind the lumber should be nailed closely, covered with paper, and after the paper a second thickness of lumber. This will Insure proper air capacity, aa it increases the friction of the moving air In the flue. A good ventilating flue must have the same qualities as a good chimney. It should rise above thei highest part of the roof so as to receive the full force of the air and wind. The best location of the foul air nue, when only one Is used, would be in the center of the barn. If two flues are used place one on each side of the middle of the stable. A Rising Gate. bucket Is filled with stones until the gate is a trifle heavier, so that a pull will make it fold back in place. ^ V - . ^ ' - V v Pea Growing. Pea growing for soil improvement is quite profitable upon sandy lands that are especially lacking In humus. Peas are a good crop to sow on clover or timothy sods the first year after breaking* as they greatly aid in subduing the soil. The peas should then be followed by a crop of grain and the land seeded down to clover. AUTUMN LEAVES FOR HUMUS F A R M N O T E 8 . Should Be Raked Together and Saved —Those from Forest Make Bedding and Litter. If you have any trees on your farm —and you should have—begin to rake up the leaves and save them as fast as they fall. Especially should this fct 4one where the leaves fall in exiMsejd places, where they will blow t i l l and become lost If the ground UftNftr the trees la covered with grass, weeds or brush that will catch and hold the leaves then they may well remain where taey fall to become future fertilizer and humus. Forest leaves make the very softest and best bedding for all farm animals tkat need bedding,, and they are valuable for mulching shrubbery and Dowering pints. Where they are used tor this purpose they should be covered with brush and weighted down, so that they will not blow away during the winter. These leaves a * also good material for scratching litter in the poultry house, and they may first.b« used tor this n*r»oae and tit* Weed seed will sprout after fall plowing, and the weeds will be destroyed by the rigors of winter. The corn crib can be made rat and mice proof by lining It with smallmesh chicken wire. Don't mow the grass In your yard from habit. Conditions of the weather way make It unwise to mow at regular intervals. A large percent, of the worst weeds come from unclean seeds. It would prove a paying Investment to pay more attention to the seed and be sure they are clean. The man who expects much from his garden Is doomed to disappointment if he uses bare, unfertilized, and ofttlmes miserably poor soil, aa a foundation. erwards removed and used for mulching garden plants. There Is 'no better material than forest leaves to use In the compost heap to make good soil for potting plants or for general garden work where the best soil is required. After they have been used in tbe poultry house or as bedding material they are still more valuable. Leaves not only add considerable available plant food to the soil when used as a fertilizer, but they readily decompose to form humus. Farms In United States.

Each and every corset will be made upon special measurements at no extra charge, and if there is any modification to the description of the standard measurements given it, of course this can be had by mentioning when placing the order. A strictly high grade corset made of fine materials. The "best dressers " in every section will be interested immediately when shown a sample. This corset we claim sells itself.

Nothing required that will be disagreeable to the most sensitive or retiring person. Write for further particulars. (If we haven't a representative in your town, we will be pleased to make for you a corset from measurements at a very low figure aa an introduction. We claim H will prove the best kind of an advertisement lor our goods). Local and state managers wanted. WL CWCEtT Witt, 82S Ms, S>s>t, isi Mat, •tok. Out of His Line.

Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a very good medicine. When I was a girl going to school I got all run-down and weak due to hard studying. I was coming into womanhood and this medicine built me up in fine shape in just a short space of time. I also took it about seven years ago during expectancy and it helped me wonderfully. I had practically no suffering and my baby was strong and healthy and has always been. 'Hie ' Prescription' has done wonders for me. I think it the only medicine for weak women."—MRS* CARL GUELL, J R . , 290 9th Street. Good looks in woman do not depend upon age, but upon health.

Florence looked very thoughtful, then said in comforting tones, "But your father's at work again isn't he?" "Yes." "And your mother's health is much better." "Yes, we expect her downstairs for Christmas day." "Well, then I think. Jane, that you should have great cause for rejoicing at your house—Christmas tree, or no Christmas tree." "I had not thought of that Florence, but you are right." "Sometimes, I think we lose the real spirit of Christmas," continued Jane, "by thinking that Christmas comes from what we get or give instead of realizing that it is right in our hearts." By this time the friends had come to the parting of the way, and with a friendly nod and "Goodbye," went to their homes to vision anew the possibilities of Christmas. Billy.

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

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

C H A P T E R X I I — C o n t i n u e d . — 1 2 — I h a a expected to find half that regiment of horse lying on the g r o u n d ; but whether It was that their breastplates had shielded them, or whether, being young and a little shaken at their coming, we had fired high, our volley had done no very great harm. About thirty horses lay about, three of them together within ten yards of me, the middle one right on its back, with Its four legs in the air, and it was one of these t h a t I had seen flapping through the smoke. Then there were eight or ten dead men, and about as many wounded, sitting dazedly o n ' the grass for the most part, though one was shouting "Vive l'Empereur!" a t the top o*T his voice. Another fellow who had been shot in the thigh— a great, black-mustached chap he was, too—leaned his back against his dead horse, and, picking up his carbine, fired as coolly as If he had been shooting for a prize, and hit Angus Myres, who was only two feet from me, right through the forehead. Then he out with his hand to get another carbine t h a t lay near, but before he could reach it big Hodgson, who was the pivot-man of the grenadier company, ran ont and passed bis bayonet through his throat, which was a pity, for he seemed to be a very fine man. At first I thought that the cuirassiers we knew that that must stop the cannon lor a minute, and give us a chance of h i t i i a * tmck. And we hit back pretty ha»d, too, that time, for we were cold and vicious and savage, and I, for one, felt that 1 cared no more for the horsemen than if they had been so many sheep on CorTiemulr. One gets past being afraid or thinking of one's own sKin after a while, and you just feel that you want to m a k e some one pay for all you have gone through. We took our change out of the lancers that time, for they had no breastplates to %hield them, and we cleared seventy of them out of their saddles at a volley. Maybe if we could have seen seventy mothers weeping for their lads we should not have felt so pleased over it, but then men are just brutes when they are fighting, and have as much thought as two bull-pups when they've got one another by the throttle. Then the colonel did a wise stroke, for he reckoned that this would stave off the cavalry for five minutes, so he wheeled us Into line and got us back into a deeper hollow, out of reach of the guns, before they could open again. This gave us time to breathe, and we wanted it, too, for the regiment had been melting away like an icicle In the sun. But bad as It was for us, it was a deal worse for some of the others. T h e whole of the Dutch-Belgians were cut off by this time helter skelter, fifteen thousand of them, and t h e r e were great gaps left In our line, through which the French cavalry rode as pleased them best. Then the French guns had been too many and too good for ours, and our heavy horse h a d been cut to bits, so that things were none too merry with us. On t h e other hand, Hougoumont, a blood-soaked ruin, was still ours, and every British regiment was firm, though, to tell the honest truth, as a man is bound to do, there were a sprinkling of red coats among the blue ones who made for the rear. But these were lads and stragglers. the faint h e a r t s that are found everywhere, and I say again t h a t no regiment flinched. It was little we could see of the battle, but a man would be blind not to know that all the fields behind us were covered with ftytng ,jiii«x Ilul—fchikrt— .±ixmii£h„_jn7.a—£UX_the toward the batteries on our Eight and left r a t h e r than on us, but we sent ont two companies of the Ninety-fiftb to keep them in check. It was strange to hear t h e crackling kind of noise that they made, for both sides were using the rifle. An officer stood among the French skirmishers, a tall, lean man with a mantle over his shoulders, and as our fellows came forward he ran cut midway between the two parties arid stood as a fencer would, with his sword up and his head back. I can see him now, with his lowered eyelids, and the kind of sneer t h a t he had upon his face. On this the subaltern of the Rifles, who was a fine wellgrown lad, ran forward and drove full tilt at him with one of the queer, crooked swords that the riflemen carry. They came together like two rams, for each ran at the other, and down they tumbled at the shock, but the Frenchman was below. Our man broke his sword short off. and took the other's blade through his left arm, but he was the stronger man, and he managed to let the life out of his enemy with the jagged stump of his blade. 1 thought that the French skirmishers would have shot him down, but not a trigger was drawn, and he got back to his company with one sword througt his arm and half another in his band, C H A P T E R X I I I . T h e End of the S t o r m . Of all the things that seem strange In t h a t great battle, now that I look back upon It, there was nothing that was queerer than the way in which it acted on my comrades. F o r some took It as though it had been their daily meat, without question or change, and others p a t t e r e d out prayers from the first gun-fire to the last, and others again cursed and swore in a way that was creepy to listen to. T h e r e was one, my own left-hand mate, Mike T h r e a d i n g h a m , who kept telling'about his maiden aunt, Sarah, and how she had left the money which had been promised to him to a home for the children of drowned sailors. Again and again he told me this story, and yet, when the battle was over, he took his oath t h a t he had never opened his lips all day. As to me, I cannot say - . „ * . , 4 - . * ^ Q-S*ii^if^is^s * * ^ 5 * ^ « ? ^ ( « 1 * ^ 5 ^ •^S^lSSSwi K ,>•?- t -*rt - V , ;cs;;i^.5iS5se.ft lly. Their horses had swerveu at uui volley, and they had raced past our square and taken the fire of the tw« other ones beyond. Then they broke through a hedge, and coming on a regiment of,Hanoverians who were in line, they treated them as they would have treated us if we had not been sp quick, and cut them to pieces in an Instant. It was dreadful to see the big Germans running and screaming, while the cuirassiers stood up in their stirrups to have a better sweep for their long, heavy swords, and cut and stabbed without mercy. I do not believe that a hundred men of t h a t regiment were left alive, and the Frenchmen came back across our front, shouting at us and waving their weapons, which were crimson down to the hilts. This they did to draw our fire, but the colonel was too old a soldier, for we could have done little harm at the distance, and they would have been among us before we could reload. These horsemen got behind the ridge on our right again, and ^e^kney*-very well that if we opened u p b o r n the squares they would be down upon us In a twinkle. On the other hand, it was hard to bide as we were, for they had passed the word to a battery of twelve guns which formed up a few hundred yards away from us, but out of our sight, sending their balls Just over the brow and down into the midst of us, which is called a plunging fire. And one of their gunners ran up to the top of the slope and stuck a handspike Into the wet earth, to give them a guide, under the very muzzles of the whole brigade, none of whom fired a shot at him, each leaving him to the other. Ensign Samson, who was the youngest subaltern In the regiment, ran out from the square and pulled down the handspike, but quick as a jack after a minnow a lancer came flying over the ridge, and he made such a thrust from behind that not only his point but his pennon, too, came out between the second and third buttons of t h e lad's runic. " H e l e n ! H e l e n ! " he shouted, and fell dead on his face, while the lancer, blown half to pieces with musket balls, toppled over beside him, still holding on to his weapon, so they lay together with t h a t dreadful bond still connecting them. Bnt when the battery opened there was no time for us to think of anything: else. A square is a very good way of meeting a horseman, but there Is no worse one of taking a cannonball, so we soon learned when they began to cut red seiros through us, until o a r e a r s were weary of the slosh and aplash when h a r d Iron met living flesh and blood. After ten minutes of it V e moved our square a hundred paces to t h e r i g h t bat we left anotfctf s q u a r e behind us, for a hundred and twenty men and seven officers showed w h e r e we had been standing. Then t h e gtms found us again, and we triad to open out into line, but in an Instant t h e horseman—lancers they t h i s .time— were upon us from t h e b r a e . I tell you we were glad hear the thud of their hoof*, for poleon had set twenty thousand of his men to face them, which made up for ours that had bolted, and left us much as we began. T h a t was all dark to us, however, and there was a time when the French horsemen had flooded In between us and the rest of the army, that we thought we were the only brigade left standing, and had set our teeth with the intention of selling our lives as dearly as we could. At t h a t time it was between four and five in the afternoon, and we had had nothing to eat, the most of us, since the night before, and were soaked with rain into the bargain. It had drizzled off and on all day, but for the last few hours we had not had a thought to spare either upon the weather or our hunger. Now we began to look around and tighten our waistbelts, and ask who was hit, and who was spared. I was glad to see Jim, with his face all blackened with powder, standing on my right rear, leaning on his fire-lock. H e saw me looking at him, and shouted out to know if I were hurt. "All right, Jim." I answered. "I fear I'm here on a wild-goose chase," said he gloomily, "but it's not over yet. By God, I'll have him or he'll have m e ! " He had brooded so much on his wrong, had poor Jim, t h a t I really believe It had turned his head, for he had a glare in his eyes as he spoke t h a t was hardly human. He was always a man t h a t took even a little thing to heart, and since Edle had left him I am sure t h a t he was no longer his own master. It was at this time that we saw two single fights which they tell me were common enough in the battles of old, before men were trained in masses. As we lay in the hollow, two horsemen came spurring along the ridge in front of us, riding as hard as hoof could rattle. The first was an English dragoon, his face right down on his horse's mane, with a French cuirassier, an old, gray-headed fellow, thundering behind him on a big, black mare. Our chaps set up a hooting as they came flying on, for it seemed a shame to see an Englishman run like t h a t ; but as they swept across our frtmt we saw where t h e trouble lay. T h e dragoon had dropped his sword and was unarmed, while the other was pressing him so close t h a t he could not get a weapon. At last, stung m a y b e by our hooting, he made up his mind to chance i t His eye fell on a lance beside a dead F r e n c h m a n , so h e swerved his horse to let the other p a s s , and hopping off cleverly enough, he gripped hold of i t But the other was too tricky for him, and was on him like a s h o t The dragoon t h r u s t up with the lance, but the o t h e r turned and sliced him through the shmrider-blade. It was all done in an l n a t a n t and the Frenchman cantered his horse up the brae, showing his teeth a t us over his shoulder like s snarling dog. T h a t w a s one to them, but we scored one for us presently. T h e y had pushed forward a skirmish-line whose fire w a s U f a i t:i u i u u v.an m •a i c t u c u j u v i them, and I was thinking all the time about the old folks at home, and about cousin F i l e with her saucy, dancing eyes, and De Llssac with his cat's .whiskers, and all the doings at West Inch which had ended by bringing us here on the plains of Belgium as a cockshot for two hundred and fifty cannon. During all this time the roaring of those guns had been something dreadful to listen to, hut now they suddenly died away, though it was like the lull in a thunder-storm when one feels that a worse crash is coming hard at the fringe of it. There was still a mighty noise on the distant wing, where the Prussians were pushing their way onward, but that was two miles away. The other batteries, both French and English, were silent, and the smoke cleared so t h a t the armies could see a little of each other. It was a dreary sight along our ridge, for there seemed to be Just a few scattered knots of red, and the lines of green where the German legion stood, while the masses of the French appeared to be as thick as ever, though, of course, we knew that they must have lost many thousands In these attacks. We heard a great cheering and shouting from among them, and then suddenly all their batteries opened together with a roar which made the din of the earlier part seem nothing In comparison. It might well be twice as loud, for every battery was twice as near, being moved right up to pointblank range, with huge m a s s e s of horse between and behind them to guard them from attack. When that devil's roar burst upon our e a r s there was not a man down to the drummer-boys who did not understand w h a t it meant. It was Napoleon's last great effort to crush us. There were but two more hours of light, and if we could hold our own for those, all would be well. Starved and weary and spent, we prayed that we might have strength to load and stab and fire while a man of us stood upon his f e e t (TO BE CONTINUED.) L F U R N I S H E D BY U. 8.

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

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

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

HAROLD LLOYD IN "HOT WATER s•• •• i You have heard of the fellow wl vowed never to fall for a pair of u so' boiled eyes'r" He usually is the first 1 flop. It is this type of character H a m ' Lloyd portrays in his newest laugh stv. sation* "Hot Water,'* his second venture as an independent producer, an showing at the Opera House Saturd; ; December 19. In the opening scenes of the pictur Lloyd is shown running to a weddi to play best man for his pal. On ^1 way he bumps into pretty Jobyna H ston, and all his resolutions never i give up his freedom for any skirt a: shot right there. The balance of tl picture relates the story of their m rimonial life, with their ripples turm into wild waves of discontent throu the intervention of the grl's mothc and her two brothers. There is much that's true to life "Hot Water,", but even the mother-i law with the heart of a traffic polic man depicted in this funmaker, v have to laugh at the development the film. One wonders how so m; • laughs can be created as are crowci kito the five reels of "Hot Water" h Lloyd and his staff eat and sleep g; while they are engaged on a pictw They never allow their thoughts wander, and it is this concentrati which brings them the tremendous sn cess that has J>een won by Lloyd a his pictures in the last few years.

U. 8. Agricultural Department H I L E splendid progress has been made in the past, there is still a very large amount of work to be accomplished. In my trip through the West this summer I was impressed with the thought that no matter how fine a system of roads the Coast states may develop, they will still be dependent upon connection with the Central and Eastern sections of the country—upon highways which lead through long stretches of sparsely settled areas in which the federal government still holds title to a large percentage of the lands which these roads cross. High mountain passes and desert stretches must be crossed with adequate highways before we shall have that tie between the different sections of our country that will lead to a greater unity of purpose and broader understanding which are in themselves worthy objectives of the federal aid highway system. Congress baa authorized up to July, 1928, a total expenditure of $690,000,000 on the federal aid system. A very considerable amount, you will say, yet the government's collection in the form of excise taxes on manufactured motor vehicles and parte represents an even greater sum. It is now possible to see by the evidence of the progress in the Western states that the construction of the federal aid highway system is going to be successfully accomplished within a reasonable time. Within a few years the entire West will have been made available to , the Ka^teni tourists and the same roads will be accommodating as never ! before the intrastate and interstate business traffic of the immediate re- ! gion. Nowhere is more to be gained by highway improvement than in the ; West, and there is evidence of their appreciation of this fact in the heavy per capita expenditures which they annually apply to the highways, for such expenditures are not equaled in anv other section of the country. American Cities Have S omething About Them That Is Cruelly Commonplace By OTHOX GUKRLAC, In La Vlctolre. The American cities, all built on the same model, especially in the East, the Middle West and the West, in so far as they meet the eye of the passing traveler, have something about them which is cruelly commonplace and monotonous. Hail road station surroundings generally present a mournful aspect. Grain elevators, warehouses, dismal hotels, Chinese laundries and everything that is sordid and ill-favored seem to muster themselves there in order to greet the new arrival. Then comes the inevitable business district where one meets everywhere, in Seattle as in St. Louis, in Atlanta as in Boston, the 40-story skyscrapers, the banks, the hotels, the wholesale and the retail stores. All this is colossal, imposing, heavy and gloomy. If you have to kill an hour, there is no pleasing coffeehouse where you may sit and watch the crowd go by. You must choose between the hotel lobbies where the whole world is "at home" or the candy shops and drug stores. WTith the exception of the public gardens, the only sections of the town which are pleasing to the eye are the residential districts. They are truly charming and elegant oases, well maintained with their vast green lawns, and their flower-beds which surround the houses. "We Know What the Communists Are Trying to Do in This Country" By WILLIAM GREEN, In New York World. Whatever others may say or think, we know what the Communists would like to do, what thev are trving to do in this countrv. We know what use they proposed making of recognition by Mexico. Moscow is today not seeking to co-operate with American labor and help us. It is seeking our capture or control, and failing both, our destruction. They are frank in declaiming our leaders as fakers, crooks and scabs. They denounce collective bargaining. They would not use the strike to increase wages, shorten hours or better the conditions of labor. In every strike they see only an opportunity to promote revolution. The American workman wants no revolution. He is constructive, not destructive. He knows that it is not necessary to destroy this government to obtain a high standard of living. We want peace with all the world. We sympathize with and would help all the oppressed peoples of the world, including Russia. We want to spread the gospel of good will among men. But when we are attacked, as we are by the Communists, we will fight back. Our great problem is organization, education, mobilization of the great economic power of labor. We propose to emphasize organization and yet more organization. That is an essential requirement, an essential necessity. By MRS. MABEL WILLEBRAXDT. Ass't. Atty. General. Women not only have not failed in political life, but they have in a great many instances done- better than men. In the short time they have had the ballot they hRve made a distinct contribution to our public affairs, Repeal the nineteenth amendment! A discussion of such a thing would only be an intellectual excursion and would certainly generate more heat than light. Yes, I think they have made a distinct contribution to politics in the greater emphasis they have placed on that side of community life not so directly connected with business and finance; for instance, their interest >n and promotion of such work as public health and city planning, education, child welfare, better homes, reduction of slum conditions, bringing of patriotism 'into the home. They have done very signal and constructive work in these fields. Not Enough Women Working Actively as Individuals in* Politics By MRS. MEDILL McCORMICK. Address to Illinois League. When it comes to actual politics and legislation, come out of the league and affiliate yourself with a political party, as otherwise the tremendous amount of education you get in the league will be of no value. There are not enough women in the country working actively as individuals in politics. I have been taken to task for criticizing the league. I am not criticizing the league. It has its functions. These functions are educational. They are of immense value, and I congratulate the Illinois League of Women Voters for the great work it is doing. Your work has just begun. The league may start you off, but you cannot continue it by reclining in the league. Yon have got to get ont aa individuals, join a good party, and go to work. This is a great laboratory. The political field under supervision of a party it your working fieUt to be nonpartisan. POINTS ON KEEPING WELL DR. FREDERICK R. GREEN Edits* .1 "HEALTH" ( A l t U . W«M«rs N*w*a*P«r Unlo*-) DEVELOPING GOOD TEETH MUCH baa been wrltteo In recent years about the need for examining the teeth of school children and giving them early treatment And that's all right It's a necessary thing to write about I've done some of it myself. But there's something still back of this. Why should school children have bad teeth? Why don't they have strong, sound, well-developed teeth that don't decay and that don't need any treatment 7 Savage races generally have good teeth. In young life, at least the teeth are bard, clean and free from either decay or crookedness. Teeth come in crooked because the jawbones are too small. They are not long; enough to hold all the teeth. As the teeth grow out they shove each other out of line. Then the teeth press unevenly on each other, spaces are left between them where food collects and decays, the enamel softens and breaks down and decay follows, which would not occur if the teeth were even and equally developed. What Is the cause of sh*>rt jaws? Lack of sufficient exercise to develop them. A child's bones are soft and only partially developed. If given plenty of exercise, the jaw muscles develop and pull the growing bone In different directions. The upper Jaw Is like an arch. Pressure spreads It and j makes the bones larger and so gives more space for the teeth. The normal Jaw should hold 32 teeth, with plenty of room for them to grow in. This means 16 above and 16 below, 8 on each side. But If the Jawbone undeveloped from lack of exercise, is shorter than it should be, then the farthest back tooth on each side, the so-called wisdom tooth, because it's the last to appear, can't come through or only part way through the gum and so remains half buried. This is one of the largest, strongest and most valuable of the teeth. Yet In many civilized persons, It Is not only of no value but worse, it Is an actual danger. What's the remedy? For those of us over sixteen, there is none, except to make the best of it. We've got to live all our lives with our second set of teeth. We'll never get any more. But for the child the remedy Is exercise. And the only way the teeth get exercise Is by chewing. Chewing on something hard. So see that your children get hard dry things to chew on. They'll thank you for it later on. WOMEN AS AUTO DRIVERS TRIPLING says that the female of ***' the species Is more deadly than the male. Naturally, he has been widely criticized for the statement from oil sides, especially by women and women's organizations. Biologically, it Is probubly true. In the animal world, as a rule, It 'Is true that the female Is the harder worker and the more aggressive as well as the most Important member of the family. But what about human society'! Does the woman continue to be the stronger and the more aggressive? In some savuge tribes this Is certainly true. -^ In civilization, does woman continue to be the more dangerous of the two? Not as far as safety Ig concerned, at least. A recent nrtlcle In the National Safety News apparently sustains this contention. Policemen, officials of automobile associations and of local safet; councils all agree that the hand that rocks the cradle may not rule the world bat that it Is quite as capable of steering the automobile as is the masculine hand. While there Is considerable difference of opinion as to whether men or women are the best automobile drivers. *the practically unanimous verdict of all those !n a position to know Is that women drivers, as a rule, are more cautious and less apt to disregard traffic regulations or to take chances involving either their own safety or the safety of others. One fact, at least, seems definitely proven and that is that the number i>f men Involved la automobile accidents greatly exceeds the number of women. In Los Angeles, for Instance, In ten months, out of 100 automobile accidents, men were responsible for 96 and women for only 4. At the stber end of the continent, the Massachusetts Safety council reports that out of S21 fatal accidents in Massachusetts only 15 were caused by women. There are, of course, many factors Aat might be responsible for this proportion. The chief of police in Flint, Mich., for Instance, says that women Jrivers as n rule are more careful Jian men but are more apt to lose ;beir heads and that, in a tight place. i ny*§ keeps his nerve better and acts UUV* ; On the other hand, a man »k«y. more chances and so gets in sore,, Ight places. The percentage of antomohUes to •opulation la probably higher la DeroU than anywhere else. Last year, ot of 14$ fatal accidents there, wonv a were responsible for only 8. Toe oestlon Is not yet settled but there i encargh evidence to show that ovt f the same number of drivers ~» • « • NO DRUGS Condensed BibU A complete copy of the Bible on a single strip of paper has been made by a Japanese Christian missionary, Doetor Ishizuka.

FACTS BROADCAST BY RILEY REZZIDEW "I once knew a man who had a fad of collecting boils," stated old Riley Rezztdew of Petunia. "He had 47— count thera—47, on his person at one time, and also had a son on his hands who didn't know which way was east. I knew another man whose fad was wearing the name of J. J. J. Joseph J. J. J. Johnson—he had been christened by a stuttering preacher. I once knew a boy whose first name was 'Chestnut'—he was the fourteenth and last son of his parents, who were poor but dishonest people. But I am sangwine that the quaintest fad of all was that of a gent who would never wear any kind of a boot but a left-handed one. He was cursed with only one leg, which was on the south side of his body when he faced east. You might think that was his right leg, but It was only partly so. He had had his other leg cut off, and of course this one was left"—Kansas City Star. W.N* u, ormoiT, NO. KW Florida City Like Part of Old Spain Ybor City is the center of the cigar industry in Tampa, Fla., and of its population more than 25,000 people are of the Spanish race. A great many of them use the Spanish language almost exclusively. Ybor City was named nfter one of the progenitors of the Ybor family. early settlers In Tampa. It appears as a city transplanted from Spain. The traditional love of the Spanish for music and drama resulted in the erection of the Centre Asturiano. a handsome opera and clubhouse, where metropolitan stars have frequently entertained. Other Latin elements also are found In Ybor City, notably the Italians, who have built a beautiful auditorium as an adjunct to their club. Local activity in real estate has affected Ybor City and resulted in the displacement of some landmarks, but the Latin element pursues Its way uninfluenced by such material matters as land values. Gigantic Ocean Plant Hold, World'* Record No land animals can compare with whales in size, and the tiger of the jungle Is small compared with the tigers of the sea, the great sharks. But it conies as a surprise to learn that the largest plant in the world Is a gigantic seaweed. It beats even the giant trees of California for height and girth, frequently growing to a height of more, ^han 400 feet. It Is commonly called the rope-tree, trecause large quantities of It are dried and used as ropes in the South sens. This vast growth is buoyed up by a sort of natural balloon, which grows toward the surface and Increases with the size of the plant until it is sometimes over six feet in diameter. A grove of these submarine trees may become a hindrance to navigation. Correct A class of older boys In a public school was being given a lesson in English.

That's what the American ever wants to know. The level way may be beautiful to the eye and soothing to the mind, but In time its very perfection tires. But let a ridge rise across the way nnd Jaded attention springs to new life. What's over the ridge? He asks. He starts to find out. He may And theilimb steep and the going hard, but he presses on to gain the crest. Curiosity piques him. Imagination incites him. Expectation spurs him on. "Anticipation is better than reality," may be true. But he must see for himself. It was this urge "for to see and know" that marched the American people across the continent, from frontier to farther frontier. That march is now accomplished. The United Stales Is now the richest and most prosperous and most powerful nution of earth. The physical frontiers are gone, but in their stead are new tilings "over the next ridge" in industry, in science, in invention, In politics, in life. And as the Old Year dies and the New Year is born It is more than ever the question, "What next?" :+:- A v % Bosckte's $yrap IMkvhg Coflght forMYttrs Can? i bottle in t.tfid alwajs keep It in the 30c sad 90c st til droggtooj. •*•*. •*» '•• • 5 , , RwL OxlrTuCsrHsiYV SSSSKaI*N v ^ ft*-- sV- mo! mm II V l M I • THE New Year bids fair to spring an international surprise as stu- Bjssjsrsna m that of the World war of » 1 4 «aj*V&nt of the Armistice of 1918. If "costing events cast their shadows btfera," the passing Old Year foreshadows action by the nations of Europe likely to result In concord, co* operation and solldiflcntion which have until now seemed unthinkable. Locarno, with Its documents there Initialed, is a shadow of tremendous Import. "Who won the war?" Certainly no European nation. It has at last come home to victors and vanquished alike that the World war was disaster for them nil. Individnally and collectively. Europe hns lost Its domination of the financial and economic world. Its political prestige has diminished to the breaking point. No one nation has the resources to regain Ms lost position. The nations must "hang together or hang sepnrateVy." No need to assume a spiritual regeneration. It Is a plain cagje of self-preservation and Its price is combination aatfJoo-ojBBratJon—-an unbelievably united JBupqp* against the rest of tfie "world. OTJB country is almost unbelievably prosperous. No official statistics are needed to prove it; the fact is patent to all who have eyes to see. For example, a glance at the football games of a November Saturday shows that twelve intercoUegiate games out of a total of 116 were seen by 470,000 spectators, which means an expenditure of many millions on one day in ready cosh for a luxury. Material conditions of living for the American people during 1925 have been the "highest In all history," Secretary Hoover declares In an economic review made public as part of the annual report of the Commerce department. Factors listed by the secretary as contributing to this condition Included a virtually complete absence of unemployment, high wages, continued growing efficiency In management and labor, efficient" railroad operation, an equitable balance of prices as among the greater producing' groups of the population and a gradual return to stable currencies and normal business operations among the nations abroad. The best of It all is that no voice is heard predicting anything but continued prosperity for 1926, IF THE dear old Congressional Record is not among the "Best Sellers" In 1926. It will not be for lack of exciting material. Congress will be In session until the beginning of the congressional campaign next fall. And the tentative program is fun of potential thrills. Tax reduction is Important, though not exciting. But look at the possibilities in war-debt settlements, the World court, reorganization of the executive departments, the shipping board, agricultural co-operative marketing, consolidation of the railroads, the coal strike and military and civil aviation development. And, for good measure, there are the row between the forest service and the western live stock men over grazing fees; the education bill for a new department with a cabinet officer; the public shooting bill and investigations galore. And finally, there's always the chance of a mtxup between Vice President Dawes and the senate! WOULD It surprise you If congress should start the Twentieth Amendment to the Constitution on its way, as Is quite likely? No; It will not abolish tobacco or coffee or candy or Jazz. It has to do with the mechanics of government and will establish' the principle of Immediate legislative responsiveness to contemporary opinion. The amendment, in short, permits the terms of the President and members of congress to begin January 1 following election. March 14, 1924, %t>A/-nmc^ the senate passed such an amendment by the significant majority of 03 to 7. In the house, owing to various reasons, U did not come to a tote. Washington wiseacres predict that the Sixtyninth congress will pasM it. Its passage would simplify a situation that has argued pro and con ever since 1795. WHAT'S next In radio? Make a 1926 guess for yourself; your guess is as good as anyone's—provided your Imagination is going strong. In the meantime you can get anything from President Coolldge's message to congress to a dictum by Overseer Vollvla In Zlon that the earth Is flat— which Is more than you can say of his music. You can get religion of any selected variety ; n!so politics nnd Information. Turn the dial and take your choice: the markets; a lecture on hog cholera ; a college education. All the world Is listening and learning as never before. In snowed-ln cabins In the silent places none go Insane from loneliness whom the radio keeps In touch with the world. Today the radio Is boiling water In a kettle on Ice; Is stopping head-on trains through emergency brakes; Is making the diagnosis for a surgical operation. Next! HERE Is a new "Prayer for Our Country" that is soon to be heard In public worship—It would seem that any good American, irrespective of race and creed, can join in the petition: "Almighty God, who hast given us this good land for our heritage; we humbly beseech Thee that we may always prove ourselves a people mind- #ful of Thy favor and glad to do Thy will. Bless our land with honorable industry, sound learning, and pure manner*. Save us from violence, discord and confusion; from pride and arrogancy, and from every evil way. Defend our liberties, and fashion Into one united people the multitudes brought hither out of many kindreds and tongues. Endure with the spirit of wisdom those to whom In Thy Name we entrust the authority of government, that there may be Justice and peace at home, and that through obedience to Thy laws we may show forth Thy praise among the nations of ths earth. In the time of prosperity All our hearts with thankfulness, and In the day of trouble suffer not our trust in Thee to fall; all which we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord.
