Left It Thoroughly Damned Ways of Helping Finland Freely Discussed in Washington By WILLIAM BRUCKART WNU Service, National Press Bldg, Washington, D C v WASHINGTONPress and radio have been filled for days with news of the cowardly and ruthless attack by Russia upon the defenseless and harmless Finns So sickening has this assault been that millions of Americans have all but forgotten the movements of that predatory animal called Hitler Indeed, the brutality of the drive upon the Finns has practically forced news about Hitlers war with Britain and France to disappear from the front pages The sitdown war still goes on but it has failed to create interest in America But I believe that, for us, there is some gbod coming out of that awful Finnish catastrophe It is a paradox that anything good could CDme from such a stench as Russia, but I am certain of the results in that regard For one thing, the latest sordid page in Soviet history has pulled the mask off of commu nism It has left communism standing before Americans, nude and thoroughly damned, with its hands dripping with human blood, with gory filth oozing from every pore, and its true rapacious character exposed to the last grimy detail Moreover, the Soviet destruction, or neardestruction of the helpless Finns has posed questions to be answered in this country by a good many thousands who have held up communism as the acme in government theory Those folks now are called upon to attempt a justification of the great liberalism which has used miserable excuses to invade and bomb and mutilate It is time for the parlor pinks, the socalled intelligentsia of the col leges and universities and the movements for freedom, as well as the real scheming, lynxeyed for eigners to try to explain away what has happened May Compel Everyone to Unite for American Way Thus, when I observed above that I believe some good will come out of the hellhole of Russia, I was thinking how the situation abroad is going to compel most everyone to unite for the American way These latest vengeful acts of the Russian bear that walks like a man bring into bold relief again certain things that happened back about November 16, 1933 They remind us of the various glowing statements that were forthcoming as to the value, in a material way, of diplomatic recognition of Russia Maxim Litvinov was here, you will remember He bargained for American recognition of his nation, and got it upon a promise that Russia would quit her attempts to spread the doctrine of communism in this country There were bombastic statements of millions of dollars in trade that would flow from the agreement worked etmtet Borah out between President Roosevelt and the Russian commisar As I remember it, Senator Borah, the Idaho Republican, had conducted prac tically a oneman campaign for Russian recognition long before Litvinov arrived Predictions were glow ing, but neither Mr Roosevelt nor Senator Borah ever suggested that, the glowing was going to be the sheen of flowing blood of helpless women and children and their men A lot of things are happening as regards this new situation For example, the Reconstruction Finance corporation has agreed to extend a credit of 10,000,000 to the Finnish government for the purchase of agricultural surpluses in the United States There is talk also of using the recently remitted Finnish debt payment in some way for the aid of the stricken peoples of the only nation that has made good on repay ment of money borrowed during and after the World war We art likely to hear a great deal more about active help from this aide of the Atlantic ocean because American hearts are tender but there is danger in the action that has just bean Poshed Soviet Bayers Oat And Told Them to St Omt There is danger la that proposal, however our hearts may desire that we help the Fiona, As I have eo often amid m these columns It it Eu ropes war, and we can and mutt stay out of H If we, as a nation, start helping Finland, it strike me that somebodys fact is liable to get slapped, and immediately, of course, uwe will be the kind of hatred arise that will drag us into the flaming cauldron Mr Roosevelt did an admirable job, I believe, when he placed an unofficial, but very effective, embargo on the further purchase of airplanes in this country by the Soviet, It is generally understood that a Soviet mission was wandering around this country at the time, seeking to buy hundreds of airplanes There is a difference in helping Finland in that manner than by extending a helping hand affirmately Mr Roosevelts action, simply stated, pushed the Soviet buyers out and told them to stay awayto go HouseholdNeujs HELPING THE FINNS American sympathy has been deeply touched by the plight of the Finns, says William Bruck art in his column today Americans are eager to help There are proper ways to help But there are also dangerous propos als President Roosevelt did an admirable job, says Bruckart, when he placed an unofficial but effective embargo on airplane purchases in the U S by the Soviets That is action taken on our own soil However, Senator Vandenbergs suggestion that we recall our ambassador goes beyond that It would be fraught with war peril FESTIVE TRIUMPH FOR CHILDRENS PARTY See Recipes Below Children Need Parties Too ahead, if they must, and use their army of approximately 13,000,000 against the meager 400,000 of Finns Another thing that is happeni and it is taking on quite a bit steam is the demand that the ed States recall our amba cut loose the diplomatic ties extent that withdrawing an am sador shows disgust and disap proval Might Be Unwise to Recall Our Ambassador to Russia Recall of the ambassador has been strongly advocated by Sen Arthur Vandenberg, Michigan Republi can, who is out looking around for delegates to the Republican national convention next year A dozen or so other Republicans have taken the same position, and the department of state and the President have been urged by numerous Democrats to show the American position in that manner It seems unlikely that such a thing will happen, nor am I convinced that it is the wise thing to do Soviet officials, if they desired, could interpret such an action as amounting to a dec laration of war on our part We have seen enough of their operations to suspect that they will do most anything which will further their own endsthings just as ridiculous as announcing to their ignorant and illiterate millions that Finland was planning to capture Len ingrad, a great industrial city I doubt that Mr Roosevelt ought to recall the ambassador, but I do not see how Constantino Oumansky, the Soviet ambassador to Washington, can remain in the great and lavishly furnished embassy here with any feeling that his presence is desired by the bulk of the Americans But what is this Russian defense against Finnish attacks leading to What brought it about The answer is that the reds have started west They have entertained fears, I am informed, that some nation that has been friendly with Finland was preparing eventually to Finnish land and sea areas base of attack To preclude so it is said, the reds want a outlet That may be true, but it is of the truth Many Believe That Stalin Doable Crossed Hitler There are many persona in official life here who believe that Stalin has double crossed Hitler, and most of us add that there is little to choose between the two It is plain to see that Hitlers plan to seize Poland was approved by Stalin who was bought with a share But the in side rumor is that Hitler never ap proved of the westward march upon which Stalin is now engaged, nor is there any ground for belief that Hitler welcomes the threats at Ru mania and some of the areas to the east that are being made from the daft of the Russian bear Just as a thought, then, we hear it suggested that perhaps Stalin trapped Hitler by letting him enter Polandthat Stalin knows Hitlers hands are oc cupied on the French frontthat the Soviet eventually may be in a poeflVJ tion to crowd Germany by the type of persuasion given off from bourns and bayonets I do not outline this as a fact y Hose to hers because it is thtaaject of military discussions it certainly is s possibility With all the holiday festivities for grown folks and for older sisters and brothers, its not strange that the youngest members of the family beg for a party, too Childrens parties must be colorful, the entertainment simple, and the refreshments very light If the party is to be a success and why give one if it isnt the activities of the youngsters must be wisely directed from the moment they arrive, until they leave Choose, to direct the entertainment, est, joiliest, childloving adult Plan games that are and make sure that all the are included Remember, at children weary quickly of e activity, so plan a variety of s and get the new one under way before interest in the old one vanishes Party refreshments, of course, must be geared to the age of the guests If they are very young, its a good idea to serve the feast at the end of the party, so that it takes the place of the regular evening

undertakCan He Pocket ing in thf Germans a He hands of Did Decision ffln who gained fame by making a diligent study of enemy exports when convicts burned Dart mouth prison and exported 300 from their ranks in 1932 Ht is Sir Hubert da Parcq, Judge of the High Court of Justice, and now chairman of the enemy exports committee, whien, in view ef neutral pro test and somewhat confused r cedent for such action, may steering a difficult course Wat reasons which did not ap pear in inadequate press aeeoonts here, Sir Huberts inquiry into the Dartmouth prison break brought him great national acclaim, and, soon thereafter, he wis both knighted and raised to the high bench The savage outbreak made England a bit jittery, as such occurrences are rare there Sir Hubert, a penologist as well as a lawyer and judge, is a stern symbol of authori ty, a strict interpreter of the law, and he found and discountenanced evidences of coddling the con victs as a possible cause of the mutiny He recommended a stouter jail and more watchful keepers In his report, he stressed the fact that, just before the outbreak, the governor of the prison had said to the prisoners, I am sorry that the porridge at yesterdays breakfast was not up to the usual standard That, thought Sir Hubert, was surely taken as a sign of timidity and might well have caused the break After that Sir Hubert became a bulwark of the empire Taking his masters degree at Oxford, he won honors in the classics Be was president of the Oxford Union in 1902 Be became a highly saeeesafni lawyer and politician, and as a judge, the strict legal constructionist which the British traditionally like Lawyers could find no holes in his decisions CCARCELY a day passes without new evidence that Stephen T Early, White House secretary,

TOKYOPeasants in a remote A northern Japanese village do not celebrate Christmas but they believe Jesus Christ died in Japan Nor are they Christians, but each year they kneel before a strange mound which they, believe is Christs burial place This takes place at the village of Herai where Buddhists or Shintoists gather each year around a mound surmounted by a pillar on which are three Japanese characters and a sixpointed star composed of interTRUfig triangles, like the Hebrew emblem How this strange tradition arrived in Japan is not known, but visitors notice that the village, which is located in Aomori, near the extreme tip of Honshu island, is no great distance south of Mount Yadaijin, which is pronounced almost like the modern Japanese word for Jew The sixpointed star ia completely foreign to the people, yet some peas ants are familiar with the Biblical version of Christs death The Aomorian story, which they have believed for 20 centuries, is this During the reign of the Emperor Suinin, the eleventh enfperor, a young white man came to live in the district Twelve years later, at the age of 34, he disappeared His name Soraitaro Fifteen years later he returned and told the people he had been to the land of his birth teaching religion and that, because of bis beliefs, had been sentenced to death by crucifixion Soraitaro is then said to have told AOVrSD THE HOUSE

that his younger brother, Iskiri sacrificed his own life on the cross Then he traveled for four years, across Europe and through Siberia Finally reaching Aomori again, he died at the age of 105 in the eleventh year of Kefico Tennos reign Near the alleged burial mound is the ruin of a stone building which villagers call TsukinoTatte, the House of the Moon Many foreign articles are reported to have been unearthed from this place People say it is the place where Jesus worshiped They do not worship His memory in a religious way, nor is the mound especially saced They describe Jesus as a SeiJin, a saint or wise man Christmas Comes But Once a Year Almost Any Time Merry Christmas is whatever you make it, whenever you make it From December 0, when Saint Nicholas arrives for Dutch children, to the

"Often when buyers of n e w plates mount them, they fail to destroy their discarded license," Hare said. "Criminal elements in the community can pick up such plates, attach them to a vehicle, steal the vehicle, and use it for a joy ride or in committing a crime." Because the original owner doesn't know it is being misused, no one reports the "missing number" and the police have difficulty in apprehending the thieves, or in checking out persons who may be using someone else's plates on an old jalopy for a couple free months no no-fee driving. Hare suggests that all persons keep old plates in their basements or another reasonably secure place until March 1, when the new ones must be used.

Ninth Delegate Report Has Hopes for Much Work Finished Before December 22 Recess At a special session Wednesday we were privileged to have as our guest speaker former President Dwight D. Eisenhower. He discussed federal-state relation>hips and urged the Convention to draft a constitution that will serve as an example to other states. This indeed was a privilege to be able to *have this distinguished gentleman within our midst. A similar meeting is scheduled for sometime in January with former President Harry S. Truman. We hope that by inviting these gentlemen, it will have a tendency to arouse the interest of the important work that this Convention is doing for ths people within the State of Michigan. The nine substantive committees are working hard and long hours both in reviewing delegate proposals as well as holding public hearings for the purpose of formulating specific recommendations for improvement in our 53 year old basic law. It is hopeful that there will be a substantial amount of work completed before the December 22 recess. This week, the Committee on Local Government has been listening to testimony from townships and county officials such as: Joe Parisi, of the Michigan Townships Association; Mr. Jack McDonald, Supervisor of Redford Township, composing of some 73.000 people; Deles Hamlin. Chairman of the Oakland County Board of Supervisors; Edward Purdy, oi ih: Wayne County Board of Supervisors, plus supervisors from Livingston. Shiawassee. Ottawa, Oakland, Allegan and Clinton Townships, plus Mrs. Muler from the League of Women voters and Kenneth Weber, an attorney from Livingston County who holds the office of Justice of the Peace. After hearing the testimony from t h e people, we must weigh the difference between a township of 1,(K)() population and its problems against a township such as Redford with 73,000 people. The present township and county constitutional law is not sufficient.to carry on an effective type of government in both extremes. Thus, it is my belief, and the general thinking of the committee, that we must strengthen our township and county government. I wish to express my appreciation for the response to my request for people from my district to make themselves available at the public hearings of our Committee on Local Government. Once again this proves to me that interest is high and that the people back home are watching our work at this Convention daily. Thomas G. Sharpe, December 15, 1961.

Two players were absent. Ray Martinez of Eastern Michigan University, former football coach of the University of New Mexico, was the guest speaker and entertainer of the evening.

The high school band performed several numbers and John F. Burg climaxed the evening with the showing of motion pictures-of the Pirates* football games with Saline and Chelsea. The decorations in the dining hall were done by the art classes of Mrs. Don Swarthout. Large charcoal sketches of each player were hung on the east wall and red and black ribbon streamers ran from the portraits to the Washtenaw Champions trophy placed on a pedestal. An empty easel was standing ready to hold a portrait of Coach Reader when it was presented by the artist Julie Trumbull, a senior. The large framed oil was a gift to Mr. Reader who concluded his remarks on the program, "that rumors to the contrary the championship title coach does not always move on; he will be here to coach another top team next season."

Christinas Mood Transformed A Civil War Camp "Peace on earth, good will toward men" was the Christmas gift most wanted by Civil War soldiers on both sides 99 years ago. The pre-Christmas mood of a Virginia army camp was set down by Charles B. Hayderr of Michigan's Company I, Second Infantry, in his diary entry of Dec. 23. 1862, now in The University of Michigan Historical Collections. Hayden observed that Yanks and Rebels "seemed determined to be together all the time." Picket soldiers of the two forces exchanged good natured taunts, traded tobacco, coffee, newspapers and soldier's gripes.

There is no conversation of friends or cheerful voices. No sounds save of bugles or drums or the soldiers wrangling over their cards. "If I knew the exact state of affairs around the old fireplace at home, I might feel more at ease. May Santa Claus tonight fill th? stockings of all the little ones as he used to fill mine and may "Merry Christmas be no idle words but full of truth and meaning and good health." Heyden describes Christmas dinner: "We made dinner on beef, hardtacks and coffee. I had fortunately finished my meal, when Moore made a discovery w h i c h checked him midway. The hardtacks were full of bugs and worms. His wry face was the most laugh- Hayden, a law student ai trvj University of Michigan before the war, died of pneumonia on March 14, 1864.

With the kind heln of friends the m g room are seven kettles, two holding 150.000 pounds each and the other five holding 75,000 pounds each. One of the larger ones that boils 150,000 pounds, or 3i car loads, was boiliug tbe day we were there and we «ere informed that it took five days to make a kettle full ot soap, five days to cool it and two days to em sty it. Then it has to go through the moulding, wraping and packing process which takes i about eight or nine more davs, or j about three weeks in all, before the soap is ready to ship. To charge one of the large kettles it requires 134 barrels of tallow and resin nearly toe entire amount of course being tallow, which is shipped to the firm by the train load. There are only two automatic soap presses in tbe country and one of them is in operation in this factor v. Although the capacity of tbe factory was doubled one year ago and the country is struggling with "hard times" yet the secretary, B. M.;DeL.> mater, informed us that they were three weeks behind in their orders, and they are shipping over a car load every day. The wraping is done by boys and the price paid is 1J cents per box of 100 cakes, and one of the boys informed us that he had made as high as $7.15 in a week.

A Summ*rv c»f the Report of the Commillet Which Investigated the Condition «f lh* Destitute Miners tu the Upper 1".DJD*U1U—Prospect for Work, At the last meeting" of the fourth dist r i c t Y. M. C. A., it was decided to hold a series of meetings at Allegan, Dowagiac and South Haven. T h e Marine Band, a t South Haven, is composed entirely of ladies, and r a n k s among the leading bands in southwestern Michigan. The members have just donned handsome new uniforms of white broadcloth, plentifully t r i m 7 »i with gold fcraii. After over u week of thorough investigation into the condition of the destitute miners of Gogebic and Dickinson counties, in the upper peninsula, the relief committee—composed of- Wm. C. Maybury, E. \V. Cottrell and 11. H. Fyfo, prominent Detroit citizens—have made au exhaustive report to the executive relief committee. In substance the report says: The annual tax levy in Gogebic lias long since been expended and that the private charities of the counties have given to the full extent of their abilities until now almost all tlie citizens are reduced to the same level. In Dickinson county the public funds are down to the lowest notch and there has been but little actual suffering as yet, although help will be needed at once and for some time to come. In both counties there is but one industry- mining—and this industry was the first to feel the business depression which has covered the whole country, •consequently the mines have nearly all been closed since last spring. The miners could, not leave the district with their families, or, if able to do so, no employment opened up to them elsewhere to encourage such a step. liut little is produced in this district and everything which enters into daily living—food, •clothing, etc., except wood—must come from without. These circumstances make their disadvantages almost appalling. The proportion of families living without the aid of husband and father, is greater by far in the mining district than in any other. The casual ties, fatal in character, frequently occurring, soon invests a mining community with widows and helpless •children, who must be a^ charge in whole or part upon the community- In Iron wood more especially and elsewhere on the Gogebic and Menominee ranges, typhoid fever and other diseases have been epidemic. Many have <iied and multitudes are in stages of •convalescence. The physician whom they could not compensate and the medicines for which they could not pay •were indispensible. Both were present we are happy to say without money and without price, through the noble self-sacrifice of the physicians of the stricken counties. From these and o t h e r reasons which might be advanced, it will be seen how far-reachi n g the scene of dependence is and how absolutely beyond the miners' control are the conditions out of which dependence cume. and from which it is likely to continue. As to the number of persons who will require aid until mining operations are resumed, your committee obtained the most exact information possible. To this end. a thorough canvass was made. In Gogebic county there are the towns of Iron wood with 4,O')0 destitute: Bessemer, 1.."»()(); Laketieid. »»D0. In Iron Mountain and Norway a total of -J,000 persons must depend upon charity this winter. Making the total number 8.100 at the present time with the unhappy prospect t h a t the number will probably be increased as the weeks go by. The copper mining communities of Ishpeming, Marquette, etc.. will try to care for their own destitute. The committee personally investigated the condition of the miner's homes and found that not only was food in instant demand, but children .could not attend school for lack of footwear and clothing. The imminent need is boots and shoes, German socks and overshoes and secondhand clothing of every description, more especially underwear for women and children. Nothing of this charac ter can go amiss. Everything can be made available. Prompt giving in this -direction is double giving. As to the donations of food, supplies and money, these will be continuous and apportioned as the needs increase or decrease. A t least $20,000 per month in supplies and money, one-fourth of which should be cash, will be needed, if even the necessaries of life are to be supplied. This would be on the basis of only 82.50 monthly for each person, a n d is"scant relief at that. In each of the counties of Gogebic and Dickinson a central committee has been formed composed of three representative citizens in the former and five in the latter county. The designation of such committees by name will be the Gogebic and Dickinson County Reiief committees respectively. It is suggested t h a t all contributions be consigned to either of these committees, who will apportion contributions t o the several localities in proportion t o the number of their dependents. Gen. Alger has communicated with owners of several of the mines with a view of inducing them to resume work. A number have agreed to do so if they can get a little more than the operati n g expenses. There is also a disposition on the part of the big fee (land) owners to make a reduction of their royalties for the present in order to aid in giving employment to the miners. THe state Grnntre. The annual meeting of the HtchigMi State Grange wus held at TrtBT"Hjf Reports from the secretary an4 other minor officers indicate t h a t the ffcrances of the order are in excellent condition, although the organization has experienced small growth during the past year. T h e executive committee's report handles national issues. The financial stringency, the committee says, is due to the withdrawal of interest and dividends on foreign capital and the withdrawal of foreign securities. The lack of confidence is attributable to the i eastern bankers, who, by painting I gloomy pictures, tried to force the I government to issue bonds. In course of time the people began to believe the bankers and to share their distrust. The committee deplores the repeal of the Sherman law, Tjhey say that a siugle gold standard rs not sufficient as the basis of a healthy currency. The grange is in favor of restricting the capitalization of railroads and other corporations to the actual value of the property they own, so that watered stock may be done away with. The3r believe iu a government postal telegraph, and also in a government parcel delivery under proper restrictions. They believe thai penalties, even imprisonment, be imposed upon railroad men for violating the railroad laws, as, for instance, those laws which require railroad companies to issue tickets good for any member of the family. They denounce the repeal of the mortgage tax law of lS'Jl and say t h a t the law of 1803, which replaces it, shows no signs of ability, research or industry. Free coinage, government loans and warehouses for grain are treated as dead issues, and no recommendations are made. N O T O N E P E R I S H E D . Steamer K. * P. ftt. No. 3 Strikes Rockt tn a Heavy Sturm—Life Havers' Work. • In a blinding snowstorm and a terrific easterly gale, the passenger and freight steamer F. «fc P. M. No. 3, of the Flint & Pere Marquette line, was driven on the rocky shore of VYhitetish bay. six miles above Milwaukee. The steamer left Ludington, Mich., with a crew of about 15 men and with a passenger list numbering 18 persons. The lake was exceedingly rough during the passage, but it was not until the vessel was approaching the Wisconsin shore that her situation became alarming. In the storm the steamer was carried off her course and in attempting to feel her way into the bay she brought up ou the rocks in Whiteiish b '. As soon as the steamer struck the bowlders she sounded signals of distress. The life-savers promptly responded. The surf boat was placed on the surfcart, and the boat was taken overland to the beach opposite the spot where the disabled steamer lay. Great difficulty was experienced iu reaching the beach, and when the crew tiually arrived on the scene it was found that the high seas and the rocks and bowltiers t h a t lined the bottom of the bay made it difficult to use the surfboat. Nevertheless, it was speedily trundled to the t-il^e of the ice-covered beach and two scores of willing hands forced the boat into the waves. The crew pulled against a high gale and big seas, but after a struggle of l."> minutes the life savers reached the side of the vessel. Two women were rescued V.V.: : » : • :.v- HAWAJfp W*:.i A S S E N T T H A T T H E M ^ P A R C H Y SHALL N O T BE R E S T O R E D . Preparation!

C , give some very interesting news from t h a t place. The dispatches recite the astonishment expressed by the American Hawaiians *vheu they received from the steamer Warrimoo, on Nov. 21, the tirst knowledge of the expressed intention of 1'rts'dent Cleveland und Secretary Gresham to restore the queen to che throne. The royalists became very jubilant and the annexationists at once began preparations to resist either internal or external force. Uver l.tiOO determined annexationists assembled and rousing speeches were made by President F. M. Hatch, of the Annexation club, and others, and resolutions were adopted. The trend of the speeches was wholly in the direction of resistance and defiance. Secretary Gresham had said in his letter to President Cleveland that the monarchy must be restored. President Cleveland had pretended to act as a judge, but his acts do not justify the assumption. His first move had been to strike tiown the American nag in Hawaii; he had not given notice of any judicial investigation. It had been asserted " t h a t there has been submitted to arbitration to the President of the I'nited States the question whether or not we had a right to establish a government in this country. Gentlemen, 1 challenge that assumption. The assumption is false in every respect. "Gentlemen, it can hardly be contended that the provisional government and we, representing the supporters of that government, have submitted our rights to exist to Colonel James lllount, of Georgia. •'We are a power de facto: we were recognized bv certain great powers of the world which made us a power de jure and we were a power having trtuty relations with the Fnited States of America. A treaty had been negotiated when President Cleveland took his seat. T h a t treaty awaited ratification to make it final, but it nevertheless was a treaty binding the executive. Now, gentlemen, I challenge the right of the chief executive of t h a t nation, of his own motion, to undo the act of any of his predecessors. ((ireat applause.) Congress may do it. Congress has full power, but Grover Cleveland had no right, legally or otherwise." Orders have been given to those governments having, or to have hereafter warships in Honolulu harbor that no nation will be allowed to land troops without the written consent of the provisional government. This notice was served upon the foreign diplomatic corps in writing. Two hundred and fifty men were put to work fortifying the executive building. In case it is the intention to carry out the instructions for the restoration of the monarchy Minister Willis has promised to give the provisional government 3<1 hours notice before acting. In case such notice comes, :»0'J men will be at once put to work and before the time expires the executive building will be surrounded on all four sides with rifle pits 150 feet from the building, which will defy attack and be absolutely safe from the guns of the ships. It has been learned upon the best authority coming directly from royalist sources, t h a t British Minister Resident Wodehonse has lately stated to different persons in Honolulu t h a t there was an understanding l>etween President Cleveland and the English government t h a t the monarchy should be restored. This theory reached the executive and an advisory council's special session was held in which the following resolution, was unanimously recommended to the executive: Resolved, That the executive council inquire of the American minister whether his instructions were covered by and in harmony with the letter of Secretary Gresham to President Cleveland. If so, whether he was instructed to use force; and. that, should the answer be in the affirmative, these coun cils recommend t h a t Mr. Willis be immediately given his passport and the ex-queen be made a prisoner of state. The fear of the councils seems to be that the British will offer protection to the ex-queen in case Cleveland fails to restore her. Immediately upon the arrival of the Australia the council held a special session to hear official dispatches from Thurston. These strongly advised' the provisional government to hold the fort. The idea is growing here that Minister Willis will refuse to act and will probably resign before he will carry out Cleveland's restoration policy. Hon. Mackenzie Bowell, minister of trade and commerce, of Ottawa. Ont.. addressed the Honolulu chamber of commerce. Mr. Bowell's speech consisted mainly of an appeal for aid from the Hawaiian government to encourage the Canadian-Australian steamship line. He told of the market in Canada for Hawaiian products, and spoke of the necessity of cable communication between Hawaii and Canada and Australia. The members of the cabinet were seen shortly after the meeting the next morning, and even their guarded expressions of opinions concerning the intent and purpose of Mr. Bowell's proposition showed t h a t the *eal scheme behind his speech, as rex> rted, was preliminary to a proposal .'or new treaty to be entered into on the part of England, through Canada, -vith Hawaii. Horab Kxploded In the Chamber of Deputies— The Miscreant Caught. While the chamber of deputies was in session a bomb wa* . t h r o w n from one of the galleries and exploded with a double report in the midst of the law-makers. A scene of terrible excitement followed. The crowds in the galleries were seized with panic and through blinding smoke and dust fought fiercely to escape from the building. The police, however, with great promptness had closed every exit to the streets and instituted at once the most searching investigation for the criminals. Both in the galleries and on the floor of the chamber many persons, including women, were h u r t more or less seriously, but so far as is known only one was fatally wounded. The deputies displayed great coolness, and their president, M. Dupuy, appealed to his colleagues to continue their discussions with calmness. His remarks were loudly cheered and partial order was restored. The police detained on suspicion 200 persons, but after a day of great excitement the authorities announced t h a t they had the bomb thrower iu custody. The miscreant is named Marchal. He is an anarchist and has made a full confession. Marchal, it appears, was among t h e injured persons taken t o the Hotel Dieu, the largest hospital of the north side of the Piace du Parvis, Notre Dame. He soon fell under the suspicion of the authorities, and pressed by the perfect of police, he decided to make a full confession and did so, glorying in his dastardly crime, and said the bomb was aimed at President Dupuy.

This enraged the madame and she vowed vengeance. A few weeks passed and Coleman's barn was burned mysteriously; loss $1,700. Seven mouths later his $3,000 residence was destroyed by fire undoubtedly incendiary. A year more fled by and his new barn burned. Next a new buggy was chopped to pieces.

Paris awoke in a very savage humor on Sunday morning; and then came laujihfc'r and cynical jests. i Everybody accused his neighbor of having eagerly swallowed the lie. Everybody declared that lie, fur his own part, had*never believed the news so greedily accepted by the mob. But in those two new homes in the Rue Git le Cceur there was bliss, whether the arms of France were victorious or otherwise far away in those unknown lands, which the Parisians were picking out with pins npon gaily-colored maps, sticking up tiny flasrs here and there <m the map to show where the French troops were, the very spot where great battles might be expected momently, great victories—a new Auerstadt, a Becond Jena. What do little birds, in their nests on St. Valentine's Day care what battles the big eagles, the hawks, and the vultures are fiehting far away amonsr, Scottish mountains, on Alpine MiuimitsV The birds have their nests, and each to each is the world in little. "Let the world slide, we shall never be younger," said Gaston, who knew Shakspcare, in the translation of Charles lingo. He and his young wife were utterly happy. If there were dark clouds impending they could not see them. Is not love blind —blind to all things except the Iwloved? The faintest shadow" on Gast'm's brow troubled Kathleen, but not those sitrns of tempest which were trat lerinc; round France. Tue new home was full of smiles. Kathleen and Gaston had smartened the old furniture by some modest additions bought before their marriage—A writing-table, a cabinet, a bookcase filled with Gaston's hooks, the accumulation of the last ten years, a few old mezzo-tints picked up from time to time at the print-shops on the quay. Kathleen and Rose had toilet! for months to make both homes complete and pretty. Curtains and chair-eowrs were all the work of those two pairs of industrious hands. Durand, who was 'richer than Mortemar, had taken the lower floor for his own menage. In the Rue Git le Cceur that second floor ranked as a rather important suite of rooms. The apartment consisted of an/on, fifteen feet by twelve, with two casement windows commanding the shabby little courtyard; a bedroom somewhat smaller; a little room which would serve as workshop lor Durand, who did a good deal of artistic cab net-work on his own account after business hours; and a tiny kitchen. Durand'* skiiful hands had made all the best of the furniture in the dead watches of the night, when other men were sleeping or dissipating; so the home of Rose and Philip was famished in a style I worthy of a man who stood high in the syn- ! dicate of cabinet-makers. j But while life was so full cf happiness , fotfthe newly-married, the sky was darken- , ing outside. An army of undeniable valor, j but in number terribly inferior to the toe, t and led by generals of scandalous incapac- I ity, was brought face to face with the whole j of Germany, in arms as one man, burning I to avenge the agony and shame of sixty j years ago. On the 4th of Aogust came the 1 defeat of General Do nay, beaten and slain j at Wissembourg; and on the fi:h the still ' mope deplorable reverses of MacMahon at ! Woerth, at Freischwiller, and at Reiehshoffen. By the breach thus opened the enemy poured into France like a torrent. They came, the fete* ctirreat! There was no longer room for sell-deception. This was invasion. And now far ofLotimly as in a dream, Paris beheld the pale spectre of siege and famine. The Parisians knew hardly anything of the truth, which came to them only in garbled frajrmentsv They knew not that upon the heels of these three or four hundred thousand men let loose upon France would follow hundreds of thou>ands more; yes, ne-arly all the male population of the old German Empire. ' Dark rumors of evil without the walls only drew those two households nearer to each pther. made home joys sweeter, love closer., But now Kathleen learnt the meaning of fear. She was full of morbid terrors when her husband was away from her. she pictured an advance guard falling upon j him in the street; a shell from the enemy's ! artillery bursting at his feet. And Gaston j went every day to the office of the Drapeau | Rffuge. He had leaders to write, tartwes, letters, patriotic articles breathing warhke 1 fire, every full stop seeming like a shell. France beaten. France invaded? Ah, but there was nothing in this world so unlikely, «0 near the impossible; and yet, while he wrote, French aims were Hung down, French ioldiers were flying—a wild rabble—from before the face of the foe; and the invader's foot wat on the soil, tramping onward •t*adily, gigantfa, invincible. lUu aonu mighty force of Nature, slow, cumulative, pitiiess. But say that the soldiers of France j had fled; say that Achilles himself had ! flung down his sword and shield, and taken to his heels; whow was the fauit? Why, naturaliy, it was the government that was i to blame, shrieked the lied Flag- Down I with the Ministers! Let us have new Winj isters, and our arms will be victorious. Mac- Mahon and Bazaiue will unite their forces, I and the tidy of victory will roll backward ! across those advancing herds of Huns and j Pandours, and sweep the savages back to their native pine-woods, their desert wastes beside the Danube. There was a sudden shuffl.* of cards in the j political game. Gramont and Olivier retired, driven out by a vote of censure, and General Moutauban, Couite de Palikao, took the helm. "A military Mereadet with a touch of Robert Maci.ire,"said the lied Flnrj. "What good could bu expected from such canaille J*'' The month of August wore on—a month of anxiety, of wavering hopes, of strengthening fears. History records no bloodier battles than Rezon\iille and Gravelotte, fought in the middle of that anxious month; and although Bazaine claimed the first as a victory, he was still steadily retreating: everyday brought him nearer Metz; where he finally retired, abandoning his communications with MacMahon and the rest of France. *Ttien came the rumor lhat Metz was blockaded; Bazaine and his hundred and eighty thousand men were bound round with bonds of iron, useless, helpless. MacMah<>ii was encamped at Chalons, re-creating lis army, and thither regiment af:er regiment of undisciplined youth was sent to him: and undisciplined youth made the country ruund ring with the noise of its follies, made France blush for her sons. And still the flood of invasion rolled on, steadily as the rising tide; a week, a fortnight at most, and the Crown Prince with his victorious army would debouch upon the plain of Genevilliers. And now in earnest this time, seeing the enemy so near, Paris awakened to the possibility of a siege; but even yet fear was not so serious as to stimulate the city to prompt and earnest action. The people waited—expectant, hopeful still; something would happen, something unforeseen—a miracle, perhaps.- Something unforeseen did happen; but the unforeseen wore the shape of shame, defeat, humiliation—an empire overthrown in one bloody day; Emperor a state prisoner, Empress a fugitive, army prisoners of war. First came the tidings that MacMahon, instead of trying to block the passage of the Germans, instead of falling back upon the capital to fight one of the world's decisive battles under the walls of Paris, was moving northward, obviously intent upon joining and releasing Bazaine. What might not be hoped from a coalition between two such generals—one who had risen with every defeat, the other as famous for indomitable energy as for military skill? What might not be hoped for frornBazaine's hundred and eighty thousand men, the flower of the French army? For two days, the first balmy days of September, a restless, feverish, over-excited populace lived upon the boulevards and in the streets; questions, statements, counterstatements flew fiom lip to lip, while false reports and monstrous exaggerations were in the very air men breathed. Then, on a Saturday night, came the news of a great calamity; a terrible battle had been fought, was still being fought, with fluctuating fortunes, in the environs of Sedan. But the ultimate result? For this Paris waited w ith inexpressible agitation. The newsvendors' kjosqnes were besieged by tumultuous cfowds; hands were stretched forth tremulous with excitement, clutching at the papers ; men stood upon the boulevard benches, reading the news aloud, above a sea of heads. Nothing was certain in• the news thus devoured, nothing precise. The crowd, deprived of ofiicial information, was consumed by a nervous irritability, a fever of hopes and fears. Men were impatient, captious, quarrelsome. At the first word of doubt they were ready to treat each other as Prussians or traifTs; for a mere nothing they would have challenged each other to mortal combat Voices were sharp, strangers glared at one another with angry eyes. Lamps began to shimmer in the summer twilight, cafes and wine-shops shone out ii|>- on the night, and gradually, imperceptibly, the knowledge of a great catastrophe spread and circulated on every side. Details were wanting; but France had suffered some terrible defeat. That was seen in every face. No one in Paris slept that night. The Corps Legislatif cal.ed a midnight sitting:and the Empire sank through the stage of this world to the realm of chaos and night, evanescent as a scene in a fairy play; and the curtain rose npon the Republic. The next day was Sunday, September the 4th, and the newborn Republic began in the glory of a cloudless summer sky. O strange people, children of smiles and tears! Last night Paris had been plunged to the bottom j of a black abyss, steepitl in the horror of j calamitv, brought face to f.u?e with the cer- ' [ tainty of an imminent siege, her army an- • I nihilated, her Empire fallen. Paris hud i , laid herself down in dtist and ashes, with 1 weeping and wailing for the .splendor that I had peiished, J lie glory that was gone. To-day, Sunday, and a holiday, Paris awoke radiant. Again the excited populace filled the boulevards, poured along th:» streets, a strong current of humanity trending towards the Champs Eiysees and the Bois. But to-day the note is changed. Ir Ls no longer the harsh minor of Rachel's wail for her Inst sons, bet the glad psalm of Deborah. The Empire has fallen, has fallen. Long live the Republic! Let them come, the ices ntrncf! We are more than a match for them mnr. Joy beams on every fae;>. The crowd wears its ho.iday clothes, its holiday aspect. Every n<w and then* a battalion of the National Guard tramps singing along the roadway. They stop their song to cry, "Long live the Republic!"' and thunderous acclamations reply. "Long live the Republic r And now came a time of preparation, expectation, anticipation. The days of uncertainty were over, and William and his conquering hosts were pouring steadily on towards this beautiful city Paris. Bismarck had avowed that he bore.no grudee against France the mad..* w ar only on the Empire. And Jo, the Empire was ended like a morning; dream, the eagle* were draggled in the blcod- : stained dust of disastrous battlefields; and ' still G 'rmariy pressed onward, laughing with a sardonic laug iter at the impediments that France set in her way. Here a bridge blown to the four winds, there a viaduct shattered, railway-lines cut, destruction everywhere; and yet the barbarous hordes Iraraped on over the ruins that strewed the way, pouring, pouring, pouring onward, like the army of locusts in Holy Writ. The Parisians expected an assault, a great battle, victory or speedy doom. They waited boldly, stroug in their faith that Bellona was on their side. The goddess of battle had hidden her face from them hitherto, but it must be that she loved her France, laurel-crowned Victrix of so many gloriou>. fields, mother of heroes. Yet, although expectant of short and sharp strife, P a r s prudently prepared against the hazard of a blockade. She gathered in hpr flocks and herds, she heaped up corn ami coal. The Grand Opera, that palatial pile which was to have been a crowning glory of the E.npire, was converted into a storehouse, half reservoir, half granary. She set to work to complete her unfinished fortifications, hut passingslowly. She armed all her cit P I K Ciiassepotsand Remingtons were your only wear. And honest shopkeepers, who had never pulled a trigger, swaggered and strutted in warlike gear. Every head wore the kepi; every man told himself that c n u e what might, let tni.ie or family perish, li.; must be there, on t':e walls, reaily to receive William and his Pandours. With some there was an idea that those advancing hordes were fresh from their native tine-forests, half-naked savages, with longhair and wolf-skins slung across their brawny shoulders—such men as destroyed Varus and his legions—such men as fought and died for Vercingetorix. "Let them come," said the sleek grocers and bakers of Paris. "We are getting ready for them." She cut down her wood, her beautiful •Bois de Boulogne, the happy holiday ground of high and low. Those leafy arcades were given over to the woodman's axe, those trees were! mutilated or hewn down. The swans upon the silvery lake, the fauna of those shadowy groves, were abandoned to the guns of the Mobiots. Everywhere the creak and crash of falling timber, the scream of dying beast or bird. There, where the gay procession of carriages used to circulate in the afternoon sunlight, were now lonediiess and ruin; here and there a few scattered plumes, white on the greensward, showed where death had been; here and there the thick black smoke, and fitful flame, marked a newly fired thicket. Paris was a camp, and every citizen 8 soldier. But the soldier's duty was nerthei onerous nor varied at this period. There was the morning rendezvous from seven to eight, the day and night watch on the ramparts, short slumbers und»r canvas, for the casements which were to shelter these heroes biter on were not yet built. AmotJg these soldiers of the National Guard lVtilip Durand and Gaston Mortemar were both numbered. The charmed life of the newly wedded was over. The domestic heurtii was lonely. The husband could only return to his home in the intervals of his service as a defender of his city. And the w iie was full of fear in her lonely home, or prowling in the neighboring streets on some small household errand, loitering with other wives on doorsieps or at street corners, devouring the last news from the ramparhs. Trade was at a standstill. ELICII National Guar I hail his allowance of a frai c and a half a day. with a small sum for wife or family; but it was almost inpossiblefor him to carry on any handicraft during this reign of chassepot and Remington. Some there were—the few. the elect among worki rs— who contrived to accomplish something in their br.ef respite from soldiering; and among these was Durand. His employer had shut up his factory. What good was there in creating articles of luxury—artistic cabinets « l>i Renaissance, writing-tables a la Dubairy, commodes a la Maiutenon, what use in imitating the finest works of Buhl and Reisnler.- when the city was girt with iron, and might ere long b? girt with tire? when at any evil hour, as yet unmarked upon the calendar, a bomb might explode in the mldd'e « f the factory, and send Buhl aiid Reisnir-r, delicate iniaid-work, ormolu and cherry-wood, pear-tree and ebony, in a shower of splinters through the shattered i r< o;'? The proprietor stowed avray his j cho'eest woods in his cellars, and locked up j his warehouses and workshops. No goods could be exported from a blockaded city; and in the city there were no purchasers of art furniture. TO BE COSTIXL'ED. A T r i l l i o n o f KlfMea.

T H E smokeless powder is not provi n g such an unadulterated success in Europe as was looked for. I t is said t h a t at least 500 Italian steel field pieces have been ruined by the use of this new explosive. If field pieces a r e thus destroyed in ordinary ^practice with the smokeless, the g u n s would hardly do for war. The p a r t y using t h e old fashioned gun powder would have all the advantage. EVERY man who conducts himself oddly in public is now suspected of b e i n g a crank. A m a n who seemed t o those behind him to be carrying carefully in one hand a napkin, probably beneath a p l a t e of soup, was watched narrowly t h e . other day w h e n it was discovered t h a t he bore n o plate of soup, but merely held the cloth at arm's l e n g t h before him. People watched his movements for a whole block, until he was seen to ! t u r n with the cloth pressed to his nose. Then t h e crowd began to sus- ;pect t h a t he was only an absentminded man with a bleeding nose. A NEWSPAPER is under the necessity of doing as it is ordered by an advertiser, so far as the size of his advertisement and t h e number of ,times it is to be inserted are concerned. At the same time no one Iknows better than t h e honest publisher t h a t .advertising is an art t h a t I is known best to those who practice Sit most; and t h a t to be successful it {has, like every other business, to bo Hollowed continuously and vigilantly. Many think they have only to run a t r i a l advertisement, two or three times, to test its success and get at i t s real value, and t h a t if the trial advertisement is not a success then advertising is a failure. W H A T a pity that sotae of the s p i r i t which manifests itself in the dedication of monuments such as was dedicated to the p a t r i o t and hero, N a t h a n Halo, in New York, does not now and then crop out in the West! W h a t a pity t h a t veneration for the •heroes whose sacrifices made freeuom possible in America should bo for the most part looked upon as idle sentiment in t h a t part of the country too young to have any revolutionary reminiscences. The thing that t h e ^ w e s t wants is an awakening to the ^ r ' f a c t t h a t there is something more in < t h i s life than a mad scramble for ^dollars, t h a t the highest rewards are n o t computed in decimal currency. T H E little town of Wakefield in Virginia is like its prototype, Bethlehem, not so important of itself as it is for being a birthplace. It was where George Washington was born, nearly 162 years ago. The place is sixty-five miles below Washington city, in Westmoreland county. Here Mary Washington lived and died. After so many years a monument is t o mark the spot of Washington's b i r t h , which, though visited by hundreds- every year, has been left so far unmarked and entirely desolate. Washington's father,grandfather and great-grandfather a r e all buried near Toy, but nothing m a r k s t h e vault w h e r e their remains were deposited, save a few trees an 1 marble slabs whose inscriptions have become alm o s t illegible. BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Doc. 10.—Kev. Dr.Talwho lectured in this eity yesterday, spoken during tbe week at Nash- •file, Memphis, and other cities, preached here this afternoon to a large audience, under tbe auspices of the Baptist church. The subject was: "Unhorsed," and the text chosen was, Acts 9: 3-5: uA*d as he journeyed, he came near Damascus; and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven; and he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto kim, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou m»! And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said: I am Jesus whom thou persecutest." The Damascus of bible times still stands, with a population of 135,000. I t was a gay city of white and glistering architecture, its mhiurets and creseents and domes playing with the light of the morning sun; embowered in groves of olive, and citron, and orange, and pomegranate; a famous river plunging its brightnessMnto the.scene; a city by the ancients styled "a pearl surrounded by emeralds." A group of horsemen are advancing upon t h a t city. Let the Christians of t h e place hide, for t h a t cavalcade coming over the hills is made up of persecutors; their leader small and unattractive in some respects, as leaders sometimes are insignificant in person; witness the Duke of Wellington and Dr. Archibald Alexander. But there is something very intent in the eye of this man of the text, and the horse he rides is lathered with the foam of a long and quick travel of 135 miles. He urges on his steed, for those Christians must be captured and silenced, and t h a t religion of the cross must be annihilate.!. Suddenly the horses shy off, and plunge until the riders are precipitated. Freed from their riders, the horses bound snorting away. You know that dumb animals, a t the sight of a n eclipse, or an earthquake, or anything like a supernatural appearance, sometimes become very uncontrollable. A new sun has been kindled in the heavens, putting out the glare of the ordinary snn. Christ with the glories of heaven wrapped about him, looked out from a cloud -md the splendor was ins\ifferable, and no wonder the horses sprang and the equestrians dropped. Dustcovered and bruised, Saul attempts to get up, shading his eyes with his hands from the severe luster of the heavens, but unsuccessfully, for he is struck stone blind as he cries out, "Who art thou, Lord?" and Jesus answered him, "1 am the one you have been chasing. He that whips and scourges those Damascene Christians, whips and scourges me. It is not their back that is bleeding; it is mine. It is not their heart that is breaking; it is mine. I am Jesus whom thou persecutest." From t h a t wild, exciting and overwhelming scene there vises up the greatest preacher of all the a g e s - Paul, in whose behalf prisons were rocked down, before whom soldiers turned pale, iato whose hands Mediterranean sea captains put control of their shipwrecking craft, and whose epistles are the avant courier of a resurrection day. I learn from this scene that a worldly foot in stirrup, but yon will never be worth anything spiritually until you fall off. They who graduate from the school of Christ with the highest honors have on their diploma the seal of a lion's muddy paw, or the plash of an angry wave, or the dropof a stray tear, or the brown scorch of a persecuting fire. In nine hundred and ninety-nine cases out of a thousand there is no moral or spiritual elevation until there has been & thorough worldly upsetting. Again, 1 learn from the subject t h a t the religion of Christ is not a pusillanimous thing. People in this day try to make us believe t h a t Christianity is something for men of small caliber, for women with no capacity to reason, for children in the infant class under six years of age, but not for stalwart men. Look at this man of the text! Do you not think t h a t the religion that could capture such a man as that must have some power in it? He wus a logician, he was a metaphysician, he was an all-conquering orator, lie was a poet of the highest type. He had a nature that could swamp the leading men of his own dav, and, hurled against the Sanhedrim, he made it tremble. He learned all he could get in the sehool of his native village; then he had gone to a higher sehool, and there mastered the Cireek and the Hebrew, and perfected himself in belles lettres, until in after years he astonished the Cretans, and the Corinthians, and the Athenians by quotations from their own authors. 1 have never found anything in Carlyle, or Goethe,- or Herbert Spencer that could compare in strength or beauty with Paul's epistles. 1 do not think there is anything in the writings of Sir William Hamilton that shows such mental discipline as you find in Paul's argument about justification and the resurrection. I have not found anything in Milton finer in the way of imagination t h a n I can find in Paul's illustrations drawn from the amphitheater. There was nothing in Robert Emmet pleading for his life, or in Edmund Burke arraigning Warren Hastings in Westminster hall, t h a t compared with the scene in the court room, when before robed officials Paul bowed and began his speech, saying, "I think myself happy, King Agrippa, because I shall answer for myself this day." I repeat, t h a t a religion t h a t can capture a man like that must have some power in it. I t is time you stopped talking as though all the brain of the world were opposed to Chris* tianitv. Where Paul leads, we can > breathed out slaughter." He wanted them captured, and he wanted them butchered. I hear the click, and clash, and clatter of the hoofs of the galloping steeds on the way to Damascus. Oh! do you think t h a t proud man on horseback can ever become a Christian? Yes! there is a voice from heaven like a thunder-clap uttering two words, the second word the same as the first, but uttered with more emphasis, so t h a t the proud equestrian may have no doubt as to who is meant, "Saui! Saul!" T h a t man was saved, and he was a persecutor; and so God can by his grace overcome any persecutor. The days of sword and tire for Christians seem to have gone by. The bayonets of Napoleon I. pried open the "Inquisition" and let the rotting wretches out. The ancient dungeons around Rome are to-day mere curiosities for the travelers. The Coliseum, where wild beasts used to suck up the life of the martyrs while the emperor watched and Lolia Paulina sat with emerald adornments worth 60,000,000 sesterces clapping her hands as the Christians died under the paw and the tooth of the lion—that Coliseum is a ruin nowj The scene of the Smithfield fires'is a hay market. The day of tire and sword for Christians seems to have gone by. but has the day of persecution ceased? No. Are you not caricatured for your religion? in proportion as you try to serve Clod and be faithful to him, are you not sometimes maltreated? That woman finds it hard to be a Chiistian, as her husband talks and jeers while she is trying to say her prayers or read the bible. That daughter finds it hard to be a Christian with the whole family arrayed against her—father, mother, brother and sister making her the target of ridicule. That young man finds it hard to be a Christian in the shop, or factory or store, when his comrades jeer at him because he will not go to the gambling hell or other places of iniquity. Oh no, the days of persecuj tion have not ceased, and will not until the end of the world. But, oh! vou persecuted ones, is it not time t h a t you began t o pray for your persecutors? They are no prouder, no fiercer, no more set in their way t h a n was this persecutor of the text. 'He fell. They will fall if Christ from the heavens grandly and gloriously look out on them. God can by his grace make a Renan believe in the divinity of Jesus, and a Tyndall in the worth of prayer. Robert Newton stamped the ship's deck in derisive indignation a t Christianity only a little while be captive of their sins a* much so as t h e young- man wjia said in regard to his dissipating habits, " I will keep on with them. I k n o w I am freaking my mother's heart; and, I know I am killing myself, and I know t h a t when I die I shall go to hell, but it is now too late to stop." The steed on which you ride may be swifter, and stronger, and highermettled than thut on which the Uilician. persecutor rode, but Christ can catch it by the bridle, and hurl itback and hurl it down. Thero to mercy for you who say you are too baft to be .saved. You say you have put <x',' t h e matter so long. Paul had! neglected it a great while. You say t h a t the sin you have committed h a s been amitlst the most aggravating circumstances. T h a t was so with Paul's. You say you have exasperated Chrifo and coaxed your own ruin. So did Paul. And yet he sits to-day on ofce of the highest of the heavenly thronis; and there is mercy for you, and g o x l days for you, and gladness for yoo, if you will only take the same Chjist which first threw him down and t h e n raised him up. It seems to me as if I can see Paul to-day rising up from the highway to Damascus and brushing off the dust from his cloak and wiping the sweat of excitement from his bro.v, us he t u r n s to us and all the ages, saying, "This a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, t h a t Christ Jesut came into the world to save sinners, of whom 1 am chief." Once more: I learn from this subject t h a t there is a tremendous reality in religion. If it had been a mere optical delusion on the road to Damascus, wasnot Paul just the man to find it out? If it had been a sham and pretense, would he not have pricked the bubble?" He was a man of facts and aiguments, ost gigantic inteUectual nanot a man of hallucinations. I see him fall from the sadand overwhelmed, I say ve been something in it. brother, you will find is something in religion The only question is, afferd to follow. I am glad to know j fore he became a Christian. "Out of Christ has in the different ages of the world had in his discipleship a Mozart and a Handel in music; a Raphael and a Reynolds in painting; an Angelo and a Canova in sculpture; a Rush and a Harvey in medicine; a Grotius and a Washington in statesmanship; a Blackstone, a Marshall, and a Kent in law; and the time will come when the religion of Christ will conquer all the observatories and universities, and Philosophy will through her telescope behold the morning star of Jesus, and in her laboratory see " t h a t all things work together for good," and with her geological hammer discover the "Rock of Ages." Oh, instead of cowering and shivering when the skeptic stands before you and talks of religion as though it were a pusillanimous thing—instead of that take your New Testament from your pocket and show him the picture of the intellectual giant of all the ages, prostrated on the road to Damascus while his fall sometimes precedes a spiritual up- i horse is flying wildly away; then ask a- MAXUIAGE of the only daughter of t h e Mackays to an Italian prince was m a d e occasion, when it occurred ten years ago, of much roseate comment In order to meet the charge t h a t Prince Ferdinand C'olonna was adv e n t u r i n g for money to retrieve decayed fortune he took the bride w i t h o u t a dowry, but there seemed flome cons61ation in the allowance of $175,0 >U a year given by her mother in addition to gifts worth as m i u h more.

A man does not get much sympathy by falling off a horse. People sav he ought not to have got into the saddle if he could not ride. Those of us who were brought up in the country remember well how the workmen laughed when, on our way back from the brook, we suddenly lost our ride. When in our Grand Review a general toppled from the stirrups it became a national merriment Here is Paul on horseback—a proud man, riding on with government documents in his pocket, a graduate of a most famous school in which the celebrated Dr. Gamaliel had been a professor, perhaps having already attained two or three titles of t i e school—Rab, the first; Rabbi, the second; and on his way to Rabbak, the third and highest title. I know from his temperament that his horse was ahead of the other horses. But without time to think of what posture he should take, or without consideration for his dignity, he is tumbled into the dust. And yet t h a t was the best ride Paul ever took Out of that violent fall he arose into the apostleship. So it has been in all ages and so it is now. You will never be worth much for -God and the church until you lose your fortune,, or have your reputation upset, or in some way, somehow, are thrown and humiliated. You must go down before you go up. Joseph finds his path to the Egyptian court through the pit into which his brothers threw him. Daniel would never have walked amidst the bronzed lions t h a t adorned the Babylonish throne if he had not first walked amidst the real lions of the cave. And Paul marshals all the generations of Christendom by falling flat on his face on the road to Damascus. Men who have been always prospered may be efficient servants of \ the world, but will be of no advantage your skeptic what it was that frightened the one and threw the other? Oh no, it is no weak gospel. I t is a glorious gospel. It is an all-conquering gospel. It is an omnipotent gospel. It is the power of God and the wisdom of God unto salvation. Again, 1 learn from the text a man can not become a Christian vtntil he is unhorsed. The trouble is, we want to ride into the kingdom of God, just as the knight rode into castle gate on palfrey, beautifully caparisoned. We w a n t to come into the kingdom of God in fine style. No kneeling down at the altar, no sitting on "anxious seats," no crying over'sin, no begging at the door of God's mercy. Clear the road, and let us come in all prancing in the pride of our soul. No, we will never get into heaven t h a t way. We must dismount. There is no knight-errantry in religion, no fringed trappings of repentance, but an utter prostration before God, a going down in the dust, with the cry, "Cnclean, unclean!"'—a bewailing of the soul, like David from the belly of hell—a going down in the dust, until Christ shall by his grace lift us up as he lifted Paul. Oh, proudhearted hearer, you must get off c>£ that horse. May a light from the throne of God brighter than the sun throw you! Come down into the dust and cry for pardon, and life, i>nd heaven. Again. I learn from this scene 03 the text that the c,r;icc of God can CTercome the persecutor. Christ and Paul were boys at the same time in different villages, and Paul's antipathy to Christ was increasing. He hated everything about Christ. He was joing down then with writs in his pockets to have Christ's disciples arresU»i. He was not going as a sheriff goes, to arrest a man against whom he i a d no spite, but Paul was going down to art o Christ. You may ride majestically ' rest those people because he was glad seated on your charger, rein in hasd, • to arrest them. The bible sa*ft, "He my house," said a father to his-daughter, "if you will keep praying," yet before many months passed, the father knelt at the same altar with the child. And the Lord Jesus is willing to look out from heaven upon that derisive opponent of the Christian religion, and address him not in glittering generalities, but calling him by name. "John! George! Henry!—Saul! Saul! why persecutest thou me'.'" Again, I learn from this subject that there is hope for the worst offenders. It was particularly outrageous that Saul should have gone to Damascus on t h a t errand. Jesus Christ had been dead only three years, and the story of his kindness and his generosity and his love filled all the air. It was a new story. Jesus had only three summers ago been in these very places, and Saul every day in .Jerusalem must have met people who knew Christ, people with good eyesight whom Jesus had cured of'blindness. people who were dead, and who had been resurrected by the Savior, and people who could tell Paul all the particulars of the crucifixionjust how Jesus looked in the last hour—just how the heavens grew black in the face at the torture. He heard t h a t recited every day by people who were acquainted with all the circumstances, and yet in the fresh memory of t h a t scene he goes to persecute Christ's disciples, impatient at the time it takes to feed t h e horses at the inn, not pulling at the snaffle, but riding with loose rein faster and faster. Oh, he was the chief i of sinners. No outbreak of modesty ] w i o n he said that. He was a murderer. He stood by when Stephen died, ; a ad helped in the execution of that ! good man. When the rabble wanted i to be unimpeded in their work of dej stroying Stephen, and wanted to take off their coats, but did not dare to lay them down lest they be stolen, Paul said, "I'll take care of the coats," and they put them down at the feet of Paul, and he watched the coats, and he watched the horrid mangling of glorious Stephen. Is it a wonder t h a t whe.a he fell from the horse \n did not break his neck—that his foot : did not catch somewhere in the trap- ] pings of the saddle, and he was not ; dragged and kicked to death? He deserved todie miser.iblv.wretchedly*,and forever, notwithstanding all his meta- | physics, and his eloquence, and his ] logic. He was the chief of sinners, j He said what was true when he said j that. And yet the grace of God rmved 1 him. and so it will you. If there is any i man in this house who thinks he is too 1 bad to Iv saved, and says, "I have j wandered very grievously from $od, I j do not believe there is any hope for j me," I tell you the story of th/.s man ! in the text who was brought to Jesus I Christ in spite of his sins and opposij tion, There may be some here who 1 are as stoutly opposed to Christ as Paul ' was. There may be some here who are of the tnre, And v die, b\\ there rri And, m t h a t the1 somewhere. where? / There was a man who rode from Stamford to London, ninety-five miles in five hours,* on horseback..

May Almighty God, from the opening heavens, flash upon your soul this hour the question of your eternal destiny, and oh t h a t Jesus would' this hour overcome you with his pardoning mercy, as he stands here with the pathos of a broken heart and sobs into your ear, "I have come for thee.

I Jefferson, the famous American 1 actor, was once asked to spend a week J with a Scotch peer. Among the j guests was a brilliant and haughty lady, who was the daughter of an earl.

I did not detect it a t first and answered soma of her absurd questions about America quite innocently.

Several persons urged us to give him Hood's Sarsaparilla, and we found that he improved while taking the first bottle. "We kept oo EAST PUTNAM.

Bowman has finished off a room bHck of his meat-market and is prepared to serve oysters in almost any Way desired. We neglected to mention last week that the Pinckney school have been approved by the state board, and students may now be admitted to the Normal without examinations. The hot water which some of our state officials have gotten themselves into, up at Lansing is causing them to squirm somewhat although it has not reached the boiling point, and perhaps never may. Do not forget that the last entertainment of 1899, in this village, is "Out of the Shadow; or the Convicts Revenge," by the Columbian Dramatic Club, Saturday evening Dec. 30. Admission, 25 and 15 cents. The following we clip from the Henderson EvHiigel.—"It seems good fortune that our town lias secured a printing press. Our pastor, Rev. Wallace, will publish his paper semi-monthly so we can, enjoy reading a home paper of our own. The snow is all gone. Ten pages agian this week. To-day is the shortest day of 1899.

He was here once, in ''Around the Stove," and that will secure him a big crowd for this next entertainment, "The Man About Town." Do not fail to hear him. Not as large a crowd as anticipated, was in attendence at the concert, last Friday evening, given by N. G. Riley and pupils. The young people did thenselves credit, and show that their voices have improved in the very short time they have taken lessons in voice culture. Mr. Riley visits Pinckney once each week now and will be glad to meet all who wish instruction.

The young officer seemed to have expected this refusal. He advanced a step nearer and dropped the strictly formal tone used heretofore. "Colonel, the interview I seek at Springfield is of infinite Importance to me. I will be perfectly frank with you. I suppose you know the relation in which I stand to Mr. Harrison's family." \ "The wealthy owner of the neighboring plantation, our most bitter enemy. Yes, I have heard of it. It toas said that you were engaged to hi J daughter, and at the outbreak of Jthe war made a sacrifice for your conJlctions." "I did not make it; it was forced upon me. Mr. Harrison broke my engagement to his daughter, without permitting rac even an explanation. The outbreak of hostilities prevented my hastening to my fiancee. I was forced to join my regiment. The letters I sent remained unanswered. I do not even know whether they reached her hands. For months I suffered the tortures of uncertainty. This morning an accident revealed that Miss Harrison, who, I supposed, had long since fled to some place of safety, was still in Springfield. It is the last, the only possibility of obtaining any certainty. I beseech you to grant it." The colonel's eyes rested with evident sympathy on the young man, who was indeed his favorite, and whose ill-repressed emotion showed how keeniT^'tw; suffered from this state of uncertainty; but he shook his head. "Even should I grant you the leave of absiuce, and you reach the plantation unharmed, who will guarantee that Harrison, after what has occurred, will not see in you merely an officer in the enemy's service and deliver you up?" "Deliver me up?" cried Wil'iam. hotly. "The man who was betiuthed only ths afternoon. You must return at sunset, and it is a long distance. You will have barely three hours at Springfield." "A single one would suffice for the conversation on which my whole future depends—I repeat my request" "So be it then. With caution, it may perhaps be possible to avoid the peril which threatens you on the wjiy. I shall rely upon your prudence." "Depend upon it, colonel." Burney approached the young man and, putting his hand on his shoulder, said with deep earnestness: "Till sunset then! It is now noon. If Lieutenant Roland has not returned by eight o'clock this evening, I shall believe that he is either dead or dishonored." William's eyes flashed, but they met his commanding officer's gaze, steadfastly "Believe the former! If I am alive at that hour, I will be here." "Then go—on your word of honor." "On my word of honor." William saluted and left the room. The colonel gazed after him a few seconds, then said in low tone: "Poor boy! I would ten times rather have sent him to meet the enemy than into this temptation." CHAPTER III, An Unexpected Visitor. It was the afternoon of the same day. The sun was lower in the west, but the heat had not yet lessened, and all the blinds in the spacious mansion of Springfield were closed. The extensive estate had, as yet, been spared the devastation of war. It was in the immediate vicinity of one of the principal recruiting-stations in the South and owed it to this circumstance alone that, for the present at lea&t, it could afford its inmates absolute safety. A pleasant dusk pervaded the sit- ^ ^ ^ ^ W W W W ^ A ^ A / V W V W V W ^ M V « A A A ^ V ^ M « W W W ^ A « V S / ^ t A A A A A A A A A / W S "THEN GO—ON YOUR Y/ORD OF HONOR." to his daughter—the man whom he onced called son?" "Everything is possible in these times. Surely you must know his character." "I expect any act of hostility toward in his house. He is a southern gentleman, and a man of honor. I am safe with him." "We will hope so; but another and graver peril threatens you there: If you are still regarded as the son of the house, every effort will be made to win you over to their cause. Suppose that—you should not return?" William started as if an insult had been hurled in his face. "Colonel, I am an honorable man." "I know it; but you are human. You are young and passionately, in love. Even the strongest natures succumb to such a conflict. At that time, you had no choice,, you say. Probably it will be so now. And when the prize is before you, when your affianced wife weeps and pleads, and the whole happiness of your life depends on a single word—avoid the temptation. Lieutenant Roland. I advise you as a friend." The young officer had turned pale, j but his voice sounded firm and resolute as he replied: "I beg you to grant »re the leave of absence—on my word of honor." Burney paced up and down the room several times in silence; at last he paused. "Jtt the utmost, I could grant you ting-room, whose doors opened upon the wide terrace. The glaring sunlight in the garden outside could not find its way into the apartment, whose doorways were protected by blinds and curtains; and a little fountain, whose jet rose amid a circle of tropical plants, diffused 'its cool, glittering drops through the sultry atmosphere. A young girl of perhaps eighteen was half reclining in a rocking-chair. Her little head with its wealth of dark hair was flung wearily back, her eyes were closed, and the long black lashes formed a sharp contrast to the pretty but somewhat pallid face. Her thin white dress, which, though intended only for house-wear, was trimmed with rich lace, harmonized with the costly furniture of the room. In the dreamy twilght, the dainty white-robed figure was as charming as one of the fragrant blossoms nodding over the edge of the fountain. One of the doors leading into the interior of the house was softly opened, and an old negro appeared en the threshold. Noiselessly closing it again, he cautiously approached his young mistress, but she started from her light slumber and sat erect. "Whet is it. Ralph? Does my father want me?" "No, miss, master is still asleep: but Mr. Harrison has come bait: and asks if he can see Miss Florence." "Edward?" The young lady hesitated a moment, then, sinking into her former attitude, she said faintly: "Let him come." Ralph withdrew; and directly after, a young man, fine-looking, but with an arrogant, self-conscious manner, entered the room. "How is my uncle?" he asked quickly. "What I heard from the servants outside did not sound very consoling. Is he worse?" "I fear so," replied Florence, softly. "He had a bad night, and the increased weakness is alarming. He fell asleep an hour ago, and I used the opportunity to get a little rest" Edward Harrison drew up a chair and sat down. "Excuse me if I d/sturb you. I har« just come from tjie city. My friend, Captain Wilson^ccompanied me; and the j u s t l c e ^ u i e peace, with the other itiifisecsT will arrive at the appointed time. All the preparations are made, so that the wedding can take place this evening." A slight tremor ran through the young girl's frame, and there was i tone OL iear in her voice as she asked. "Today—must it be?" "I thought we had arranged it. Surely you consented." "Yes; but I hoped you would allow me a :Utle time—a few months oi week.r What is the use of this fierce haste? Why should the wedding take place beside my father's sick-bed?" "Because it is your father's last wish and will, as you know from his own lips. F e wants to know that you will be safe and sheltered in a husband's, arms when danger assails us, and he has my promise that I will protect you and htg» property to my last breath." "As soon as it becomes yours—1 don't doubt it." Edward's brows contracted angrily. A dark frown shadowed his face. "What does that mean, Florence? Do you doubt my love? You know that it is bestowed on you alone, not your estates, which, in the storms of war, may be destroyed, like so many which have already been ruined. You must trust me. I shall certainly not sacrifice you to any principle, as others have done." The allusion was distinct enough Florence's head drooped, but her ton* betrayed rising indignation, as she re plied: "Was I sacrificed? You say so, anil so does my father, but I have never heard it from William's lips, and you were always his enemy. I cannot understand his giving up the struggle so quickly, not even making an attempt to change my views, and sometimes I fear " She did not finish the sentence, but her eyes, which rested with unmistakable suspicion on her cousin's features, expressed the thought which she did not utter in words. But there was no change in his countenance, and the answer was equally unmoved and cold. "Surely, you read the letter in which he broke with your father? Was not that plain enough? He knew the price that would enable him to possess you. it would have cost him only a single word to call you his; yet, instead, he delivered a political lecture on manly honor, duty, conviction and the rest of the set phrases. Well, he followed his ccn notion and—gave you up." The young girl's pr.le face began to flush, and her. lips were closely compressed. This was the goad which had conquered her resistance, forced her into the new bond; it produced its effect now. "Yes, he gave me up," she repeated, bitterly. "Well—I have given him up, too." "And cannot you yet shake off the memory? You have been candid with me, Florence, cruelly candid. I was forced to hear from your lips that that other still held the first place in your heart, that only filial duty won your consent to my suit. Be it so! I will venture the risk, even with this statement. I will cope with this arrogant German, who does not know what love is, who has never felt the full pulse of genuine passion. For me, no price is too high for the prize of possessing you. I would overthrow all that stood between us, were it even what I held highest. Resist as you may, I shall yet win you—you and your love." There was really a touch of genuine passion in the words, and the ardent gaze which rested on the young girl proved that Edward Harrison was not playing a mere game of calculation. Florence unresistingly left the hand he had seized in his clasp. She was halfunconsciously under the thrall of this man, whom she feared, for whom no voice in her heart pleaded, yet who exerted an almost demoniacal power over her. (To be continued.\ , WAR NOTES. For some months it has been suspected that large quantities of military stores were in the possession of Cubans at some point in the interior. On the 13th the mayor of Tunis, a small town in the district of Holguin, voluntarily disclosed the location and surrendered of three effective field guns, 10,000 rifles and a large amount of ammunition to the Americans. The guns had been stored in an obscure place, in a rough country under palm leaf blinds. It would have been almost impossible to find them Unless their whereabouts had been voluntarily revealed. The Holguin district is one of the wildest in the island, and has been regarded as a probable starting point for a possible uprising. Gen Young reports the rescue of lirutne, of the Nevada regiment, and Edwards, of the gunboat Yorktown, who have been held prisoners by the Filipinos. Gen. Tino, conveying the American prisoners north, is hotly pursued. Aguinaldo is a fugitive in the mountains, his body guard having been destroyed and Gregorio del Pilar killed. Gen. Concepcion has surrendered. The Lepanto province has been cleared of insurgents. The navy eo-ope rated with the army on the west coast. Two thousand eight hundred released Spanish prisoners are on their w a y to Manila. The latest from Gen. March is t o the effect that Aguinaldo has disguised himself, abandoned his troops and is hiding in the province of Bengued. He also adds that he destroyed Aguinaldo's bodyguard; killed Gen. Pilar; received the surrender of Gen. Concepcion and staff; killed and wounded 52 insurgents; released 575 Spanish prisoners and captured considerable property. His loss was t w o killed and nine wounded. A force of insurgents estimated at 800, attacked the American garrison of '»00 at Vigan, province of South Ilocos. The American loss was eight killed and many wounded. After very hard fighting the Filipinos were driven off and through the mountains, leaving 35 dead. Col. Bisbee reinforced the garr. son. An official London report gives the total number of killed, wounded and missing of all arms in the engagements of the 10th and 11th. north of Modder river at 832. There were 15 oflicerskilled and four wounded, and in addition five are missing and one is knovvn to have been made prisoner. v Ma j.-Gen. Leonard Wood, U. S. V., was on the 13th assigned to the command of the division of Cuba, relieving Maj.-Gen. John R. Rrooko, l \ S. A. Maj.-Gen. Wood will, in addition to his duties as division commander, exercise the authoritj' of military governor of the island. The London war office has received a message stating there were 050 casualties among the non-commrssioned officers and men of the Highland brigade at Magersfontein. The brigade lost 10 officers killed, 3S wounded and four missing. The news of the appointment of Maj.- Gen. Wood as governor of Cuba, was received at Santiago with enthusiasm. Even the most hitter Cuban nationalist agree in praising him as a soldier and an administrator. Commander E. 1*. Wood. U. S. X., died of typhoid fever at his residence in Washington on Dee. H.

All except bad onesI There are hundreds of cough medicines which relieve coughs, all coughs, except bad ones! The medicine which has keen curing the worst of bad coughs for 6o years is Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. Here is evidence: "My wife was troubled with a deep-ssated cough on her lungs for three years. One day I thought of how Ayer's Cherry Pectoral saved the life of my sister after the doctors had all given her up to die. So I purchased two bottles, and it cured my wife completely. It took only one bottle to cure my sister. So you see that three bottles (one dollar each) saved two lives. We all send you our heartfelt thanks for ithat you have done for us."—J. H.

I t is the mingled souls of wheat and corn. I n it you will find the sunshine a n d shadow that chased each other over billowy fields, the breath of June, the carol of the lark, t h e dew of the night, the wealth of summer and autumn's rich content, all golden with imprisoned light. Drink it, and you will hear the voice of men and maidens singing the 'Harvest H o m e / mingled with the laughter of children. Drink it, and you will feel within your blood t h e starred dawns, t h e dreamy, tawny dusks of perfect days. F o r 40 years this liquid joy has been within vstaves of oak, longing to touch the lips of man." D R . J . M. BUCKLEY'S R E P L Y . " I send you some of t h e most wonderful whiskey that ever b r o u g h t a skeleton into the closet, or painted scenes of lust and bloodshed in t h e brain of man. I t is the ghost of wheat and corn, crazed by t h e loss of their natural bodies. I n it you will find a transient sunshine, chased by a shadow as cold as Artie Midnight, in which the breath of J u n e grows icy, and the carol of the lark gives place to the foreboding cry of t h e raven. Drink it and you shall have 'woe/ 'sorrow/ and wounds without cause/ 'your eyes shall behold strange women' and your heart shall utter perverse things.* D r i n k i t deep and you shall hear the voice of demons shreaking, women wailing and worse than orphan chidren mourning the loss of a father who yet lives. Drink it deep and long,and serpents will hips in your ears, coil themselves about your neck, and seize you with their fangs; for ' a t last it biteth like a serpent and stingeth like an adder. For 40 years this liquid death has been within staves of oak, harmless there as purest yater. I send it to you that you may ' put an enemy in your mouth t o steal away your brains.' And y e t I call myself your friend.

Couary will appear at 'the Pinckney Opera House, Jan. 1, in hit; new monologue, entitled "A Man About Town" It opens with a clever piece of verse, in which the different characters are introduced:— The Irish Alderman tells a' humorous story, how he tried to ride a bicycle ; the old English sailor tells a dramatic story of a shipwreck ; Farmer Jones tells his experience in the Farmers' Hotel; Bernardo Fopiano, the Italian fruit vender, describes the discovery of America by "Christoforo Colombo;" Cohen, the second hand clothier, tries to beat farmer Jones in a bargain, and does not succeed; "Uncle Johnathan" Introduces himself and closes the first scene. The second scene is in the cafe of a hotel:— the alderman sings a song; so does Farmer Jones; the Jew tells a dream he had; the " T h e Man About Town" and " Uncle Johcathan" closes the second scene with fitting stories. Taken as a whole, the entertainment is highly'interesting and instructive as well as amusing, and extremely laughable in places.

The first indication of croup is hoarseness, and in a child subject to that disease it may be taken as a sure sign of the approach of an attack. Following this cough, is a peculiar rouph cough. If Chamberlin's Cough Remedy is given as soon as the cbild becomes hoarse, or even after tbe croupy cough appears it will prevent the attack. It is used in many thousands of homes in this broad land and nev«r disappoint* the anxious mothers. We have yet to learn of *a sinale instance in which it has not proved effectual.

An earthly angel is a woman that other women never gossip about Time magnifies our good deeds and diminishes the size of our misdeeds. Talk about a "Greater Jolict" will not be received with favor in criminal circles. Many a man's reputation for goodness is founded upon his ability to conceal his badness. Humor is the electric light in the halls of literature. Wit is the flashlight, and sarcasm a torch darkened by the smoke of prejudice. Chicago engineers are designing an earthquake-proof steel palace for the crown prince of Japan. It will mark the advent of American steel construction in the Mikado's land, and the imperial government has appropriated 13,000,000 for its erection. Foundations are being laid with a view to rearing the framework in February. Around the skeleton of beams and bars will be built a house of granite and marble expected to eclipse in beauty of design anything the orient has ever known. The palace will adjoin the royal home of the Mikado in Tokyo, and it will spread to extreme dimensions of 270 by 400 feet, rising to a height of sixty feet. The architectural plans partake of the French renaissance. There will be only one serious objection to the proposed J200.000.0UO sugar trust-glucose trust amalgamation— namely, that not all of the capital stock will be water. The projectors of the enterprise must realize, with sadness, that out of the proposed $200,- 000,000 capitalization there will be several million dollars of bona-fide stock issued against an actual investment of tangible property. Perhaps their ingenuity Is equal to the occasion. They may find some way of skimming this cream of tangible property off the ocean of water so as to leave the latter in its original simon-pure condition. With another five years of trust promotions under the most modern methods the man who can produce a share of capital stock which represents an actual investment will be entitled to a prize. The attempt of the Russian government to adopt in that country the Gregorian calendar, which is fc use in nearly all the rest of the civilized world, has failed. The reason given is that it has been found impossible to establish an agreement between the dates of religious festivals appearing in both the Julian and the Gregorian calendars. That is to say. the people want to keep on celebrating Christmas and Easter and the other days on exactly the same dates as at present, and will not be reconciled to a change. Yet precisely such a change was made in the English-speaking world a century and a half ago, when the calendar was shifted twelve days, and what had been Christmas became Twelfth-day. There were popular protests against it, and in England not a few riots. But the authorities insisted upon the reform, and it was effected. It seems strange for the supposedly despotic Russian government to show itself more sensitive to popular prejudices than were the British and American government. The contention of Benjamin Kidd, the author of "Social 2 solution," that white men cannot become acclimatized in the tropics has stirred up a wide discussion. Dr. Manson, who has written a book upon this subject, and Dr. Rtao, director of the medical department of the Italian navy, are thorough believers in the possibility of tropical acclimatization. The death rate of Eu- , ropean troops in the tropics, which used to be from 100 to 129 per 1,000, is now as low as 12 per 1,-/00 in India. la Trinidad and Barbados the sickness and mortality among European soldiers are actually less than at home. The Boers are physically the finest men in South Africa. The Portuguese ufder favorable social conditions have been totally absorbed in India, but in Guiana and .Brazil they have thrived ..remarkably, well. Spaniards and Italians have become completely acclimatized in the tropical parts of both North and South America. The death rate of Spaniards in Cuba is less than in Spain. It is. to the microbe of the tropics rather than to the heat thai attention should be directed, according to the New York Medical News.

The rays of the noonday sun were beating down with the scorching glow known only to the Boutin*^ In the hot, quivering air every ^object seemed steeped in radiant light, and even the forest afforded no coolness, for it, too, was pervaded by the sultry atmosphere, and beneath the huge trees the burning breath of noon was still felt Under one of these trees, whose branches, heavy with foliage, extended a long distance, two young men had flung themselves on the ground, apparently for a short rest Both wore the uniform of the Union army, one being a lieutenant and the other a surgeon. The latter, who had t slender figure somewhat below the middle height, expressive features and dark hair, lay in a comfortable attitude on the turf, listening calmly to his companion, who had started up and was pacing hurriedly to and fro. The powerful form, thick, fair hair and blue eyes unmistakably revealed German ancestry: but a cloud shadowed the frank, youthful face, and the voice trembled with passionate emotion. 'T must go, cost what it may! Since I knew that Harrison and his daughter were on the plantation, I have had no rest. Say what you please, John, I am going!" "My dear William, you are on the eve of doing a very foolish thing," said the surgeon, without changing bis comfortable position. "I advise you, as a friend, to drop It; the affair may be your death." "What do I care for that! Certainty I will have at any cost A brisk ride will bring me there in two hours, and I can return before sunset. I'll venture it at any peril." "And risk a bullet through your r —the honor of our different nationalities." "In which you usually came off worst" "Yes; you had an abominab't w^y of cudgeling German supremacy into me; and as you were the stronger, I generally yielded to your palpable arguments. But when there was anything which required brains and reflection, John Maxwell was summoned. Then you submitted to my authority, and, at the utmost, appeared on the scene when there was a drubbing to be given. Don't look so gloomy, Will; let us discuss the matter sensibly. What do you really expect to accomplish by this wild ride into the enemy's country? You don't even know whether Mis3 Harrison wishes to see you—whether the did not agree when her father dismissed you so unceremoniously." "No. no!" William impetuously retorted. "Florence has been deceived— forced; she has not received any of my letters, as I have not had a single line from her. Her father was always opposed to our engagement; we fairly extorted his consent He gave it reluctantly, and promptly availed himself of the excuse afforded by the war to recall his promise." John Maxwell shrugged his shoulders. "Well, you can hardly blame him! He, a secessionist and slave-baron, and you with your humanistic ideas! You harmonize like fire and water, and you were always a thorn in the flesh of his nephew, the charming Edward. You stole from under his very eyes the wife on whom he had set his heart. He'll never forgive you. Conditions were imposed at the outbreak of the war?" "Yes—shameful one3! I was to deny my convictions, desert and betray the "WILL YOU ACCOMPANY ME?" brain. You have probably forgotten that We are engaged in a war and that it is desertion for an officer to be absent from his regiment without leave. Court-martials are sometimes disagreeable in such cases, and it would be unfortunate if Lieutenant Roland should go out of the world by lynch-law." The sarcasm of these words succeeded in producing an Impression where sensible arguments might have failed. William Roland started and answered more quietly: "What fancy have you taken into your head? Of course, I don't mean to go without leave. The colonel will not refuse it; we are doing nothing here. I must see and speak to Florence once more, even though I hazard my life to do it!" "You lovers are always ready to risk your lives," said the young surgeon, carelessly. "Your feelings are forever at the boiling point A strange condition of affairs. Let me feel your pulse!" "Cease this Jesting!" cried William, furiously. "Can't yon curb your spirit of mockery even here? But how could I expect sympathy or appreciation from ycu where affairs of the heart are concerned!" "From the heartless American!" retorted John. "Of course, heart and feeling are the prerogatives of the German. You have taken out a patent on them, and consider yourselves actually insulted if other people claim a little of the article, too. Here we are back again at the old point of dispute, over which we wrangled auHciently a* bojj cause I serve and fight in the ranks of the enemy against our army. I rejected the dishonorable demand as it deserved." "With the most reckless bluntness to the millionaire and future father-inlaw. The Harrisons really are not so very much to blame. You would be an extremely troublesome son-in-law. I should have considered the matter a little. Where a bride and a fortune are at stake " "You would have practiced treason? John, don't make yourself worse than you are. Even you would have been incapable of i t " "Who talks of treason! You merely needed to have remained passive and not fought at all, either for or against the Union; that would have been the wisest course." "And a cowardly, pitiful one into the bargain! Am I alone to lag. behind, when every one springs to arms? Let us drop the subject. Our views ,on this point are very widely sundered." "They are on all points," said Maxwell, dryly. "I stick to it—this visit to the plantation is as useless as it Is dangerous,' but I don't flatter myself in the least with the hope of detaining you. You'll have your own way under all circumstances." "Of course, I shall. I'm going to .he colonel at once to ask for leave of absence. Will you accompany me?" The young surgeon sighed. He was probably loath to resign his comfortable resting place, yet he rose slowly. "1 wish Colonel Burney would put you under arrest for three .days., in,-. stead of giving; you leave of absence," he said, emphatically. "But unfortunately, you ax* a favorite, and besides, it's an established fact that, If a man wants to commit a tolly, everybody hastens to help him, 8o let ua t o ! " The regiment to which the young men belonged was stationed in the next village. After severe battles and arduous marches a short respite had been granted, but the men were to move In a few days. Constant burtle pervaded the usually quiet hamlet and was specialty noticeable around the colonel's quarters. When Roland a i l Maxwell entered, they found several officers there. The commander himself, a man advanced in years, with a grave but kindly face, stood among a group of his subordinates, apparently discussing something with them. "I am glad you have come, doctor!" he said to the Burgeon. "I was just going to send for you. Lieutenant Davis has reported that two of his men are ill, and the symptoms appear very grave; he fears fever, and begs to have medical assistance as soon as possible. You will ride over to the outposts." "I'll go at once," replied Maxwell. "I hope it will prove a false alarm, as has happened several times, but we'll soon ascertain." "Certainly. I am especially anxious to have reliable information concerning the nature of the disease The outbreak of an epidemic would be extremely inconvenient just now. When do you expect to be back?" "In three hours, if necessary. $ut I had intended to ask leave of Absence until evening on account of another matter, which I should like to attend to at the same time." "Of course, if you wish," said Burney, absently. "Only send me some good news." "The best in my power. At any rate, there is no time to lose. I will go at once." The colonel nodded assent, and the other officers now joined in the conversation. The subject was discussed in all its bearings. If these cases were really the first in an impending epidemic, the matter was very serious. At last Maxwell took his leave; but, in the act of going, approached his friend, who was standing silently at the window. "Do you still persist in your resolve?" he asked, under his breath. "Certainly. As soon as I get my leave I shall ride over.** "And perhaps be shot oa the way! Good luck to you!" "Thanks for the kind wish," said William, angrily. "Perhaps it will Le fulfilled." "Hardly. Men who, like you, are forever butting their heads against a wall, generally have uncommonly good fortune. Where the rest of us crack our skulls, they push the stone apart. Farewell, Will!" He left the room. Doctor Maxw/ill did not spoil his friend by pretty speeches; that was evident He took leave of the young officer who might "perhaps be shot on the way" as carelessly as If there was nothing in prospecjt save an ordinary ride. William scarcely heeded it; his mind was filled with other thoughts, and he availed himself of the first pause in the conversation to approach the colonel and request a brief private'interview. Burney opened the door of a small room adjoining, and the two men entered. • "Well, Lieutenant Roland, have you anything important to ask?" said the colonel, when they were alone. "I merely wished to request a short leave of absence," replied the young man, with apparent calmness. "There is a family matter to be arranged which is of the utmost importance to ] me." "And which you can arrange while on the march?" "At least I hope so. I intend to visit relatives who live on a plantation only a l e v miles from here. I have just learned that I was In their Immediate neighborhood." The request was not singular, and was easily granted, yet something in the young man's face attracted the colonel's attention, and he Inquired: "What is the name of the plantation you desire to visit?" William hesitated a moment, then slowly answered: "Springfield." Burney started. "Springfield? That is beyond our outposts. Arc you not aware that it is in the enemy's country?" "I know i t " "And yet you wish to go there? It won't do. I cannot permit i t " "I took a similar and far more danj gcrous ride a week age on staff duty," , replied William. j "That was in the service; duty required it: but this is a private affair, and I cannot permit one of my officers to risk his life for such a matter. No, ; Lieutenant Roland." (To be continued.) W E BUDGET OF FEN, SOME OOOD JOKES. ORIGINAL AND SELECTED.

A western lady,who formerly lived at Cambridge, Mass., writes entertainingly of what she declares was the happiest Christmas of her life. The climax of this merry occasion was a house party given at the home of her uncle not many miles from Cambridge. The lady writes: "My uncle owned a big place about twenty mile3 from town, and every year he invited all his relatives to spend the Christmas holidays with him. He was a widower with two children— a son 26 years old and a daughter cf 17. This girl, my cousin, Stella, was one of the brightest and most fun-loving girls I have ever known. I was just two years her senior, and between us we managed to stir up that house party to a degree nothing short of startling! Twenty people beside our family were Invited, there being altogether about thirty guests in the house. Among them were a young lawyer fron New Yoi*k (for whom I immediately conceived a violent admiration), a naval officer, three Yale men from New Haven, my two brothers, an antique female ebusin of ours (age unknown), some girls from New YorU and a young.married couple from St. Louis. Before the end of v week Stella and I had almost originated a divorce case, where the young St. Louis couple were concerned. Of course, there were some other people, but they Were sort cf chap^rones, old fogies who didn't count much. Well, that year the 25th of December fell on Wednesday, and the guests were invited from Dec. 23 to Jan, 2, and I can tell you we made Rome howl. My brothers and I, with our parents, arrived at our uncle'* late Monday morning. The enow had been falling steadily for thirty-six hours, and was many inches deep. "We drove from the little rickety station three miles 'cross country to the farm. We were the first arrivals, and we made good use of the advantage over the other invited guests. The next train, at 4 o clock, brought them all, and at .r. they caroc shouting and singing UD to the house, an sleighs. wa&CQ3 and carriages, borrowed from the farmers all over that part of the country. Well, the first evening was pasted in the big dining rccm, all of us crowded about the roaring log fire. That is, all of us, excepting the young lawyer from New York and—myself. We v.ere seated on a chintz-covered soap-box, off in a dim corner of the room, discussing—er—the possibilities cf effect of mistletoe on—ah—mankind. Batore the candles were brought in to announce the 'time for disappearing.' we two had begun to understand each other. It was our first meeting, but in the country, and at Christmastide, people become acquainted very quickly. "The next morning we all arose at 8 o'clock, and after the jolliest kind of a breakfast, we hauled in great bunches of evergrern, reels of crow-foot mo£s, and pile after pile of holly and mistleon Christmas morning, and these wore suspended from the branches of the tree. Mistletoe was everywhere, nr.i! so were the girls. The consequence will b: readily understood—the men were not of the varieiy known a3 .-1 RECEIVED A PAIR OP HTJNTItfQ TROUSERS, toe. We spent most o( the day on step ladders or tables, hammering and tackinn the Christmas decorations in place. Ar.d in the evening my uncle had a big pine tree brought in and set up in the parlor. We had each brought scores of littlo packages from town to present "It v,-as long past midnight when wa trooped oif to our rooms and 2 o'eloeli struck before th« last good night rang down the darkened hallway. As soon a3 all was quiet, I stole from my room, and tip-toea down the corridor to my cousin Stella's door. It was locked, but I tapped gently, and was soon admitted. We two girls slipped down stairs, where I had told the butler (an old servant of my uncle's) to wait for us. And the:: we put our three heads together and concocted a grand scheme, for the undoing of everybody in the house. We tugged and hauled that hfg over-leaded Christmas tree from the parlor, through the hall into the library, and then we exchanged the names on all the presents. It was almost daylight before we finished, but we were amply repaid for our trouble. 'By 9 o'clock everybody was dressed and down stairs, exchanging greetings and gifts. Stella and I were the last to arrive, and our entrance was the signal for a grand r^sh to the parlor. And lo! the bis Christmas tree had flown. My uncle was enraged, the guests much excited, r-nd the youDg Ia-.vyer from New York looked very much amused. A search was promptly instituted, and of course the tree was found in the library, standing in stately solitude. "Who on earth could have put it there? No one knew—and no one could guess—Stella ana I were particularly obtuse. And after awhile the present* were distributed. The young married woman's card was inclosed in a bundle cf embroidered flannel petticoats' to 'my darling husband,' and 'darling husband' presented his 'little IOYP' with a volume of Mother Goose talfs, and a red bathing suit; my old maid cousin received a Dutch pipe and a pair of hunting trousers; my uncle got a half dozen tulle veils and a pair of gold garter clasps."

They are about us on every hand and we are constantly taking them into our lungs. Then why don't we all have this disease? Simply because these germs cannot gain a foothold in a strong throat and lungs. It's when these are weak that the germs master. The body must be well supplied with fat. The danger comes when the blood is poor and the body is thin. If your cough does not yield, and your throat and lungs feel raw and sore, you should not delay another day. Take Scott's Emulsion of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypophosphites at once. It will heal the inflamed membranes and greatly strengthen them as well. The digestion becomes stronger, the appetite better and the weight increases. The whole body becomes well fortified and the germs ot consumption cannot gain a foothold. It's this nourishing, sustaining and strengthening power ot SCOTT'S EMULSION that has made it of such value in all wasting and exhausting diseases. 50c and fx.oo* «11 druggists.

The scene at the works Is one of dire havoc. The nitro-glycerin house is a total wreck, also the "dope" house. The packing houses look as though they had been bombarded with heavy guns, and the engine room and other buildings more or less damaged. Great holes were torn in the roofs, the walls were bulged in or shoved out, and in some instances the buildings had collapsed utterly. Of the mixing house, located on the bank of Deer river, not a vestige remains. It was here that the explosion of the deadly nitro-glycerin had occurred— hew, will never be-known,forall five men in the building at the time were blown into atoms.

Of the five men killed, only enough shreds of their blackened flesh to cover the bottom of a small powder box had been found in the snow in the nearby woods up to late this afternoon.

On the contrary, I have every reason for desiring to live, but as a soldier I long ago made up my mind to face the worst manfully when it came." "But there is a peculiar stigma attached to the fate of a spy—unmerited, I adroit. It has always been so. To fall in battle is honorable—to be hung a disgrace." "Granted—yet not being a spy I take Httle interest in the controversy. You have not come here to engage in an argument, squire." "Ah! you know me?"

One glance at that determined face told him Squire Granger meant aj! he gald, and that a refusal to accept the contract would, be the signal for a hasty execution. "What is your daughter's name?'' "It does not matter—stilt, you Would have to know—it is Mollie Granger." "She cannot be twenty, as yet." "Just eighteen.

TJhder~ordinary clrcum stances I would as soon see my child dead as the wife of a Yankee. To save Lyndhurst we are ready to do even this. If you consent I have a solemn contract here which you must sign." "A contract—kindly tell me Its nature. It may put a different face on the matter" "It is simply an agreement by means Mollie as your wife—in fact, to be a stranger to her^ unless she of her own rfree will decides otherwise." "And you tell me she has consented to this?" "I have said so. Expect nothing but coldness from her. She is a Georgia girl and bitterly opposed to all Northern soldiers.

She stood beside him while the parson went through the service .hastily* as though a little ashamed of the part he took, but ready to assist the squire in his scheme to save Lyndhurst. When the words "to love, honor and obey" were read, John saw her scarlet lip curl In contempt, while the color momentarily left her face; but she gave a little affirmative nod Some spirit possessed him on his part to exclaim with more that usual emphasis "I will" when the usual "Listen to^me.

It was by accident that John's hand touched that of the girl. He was amazed at feeling a strange thrill of which you swear never to. claim, ^fihoot through his frame, and ready to laugh at himself for such foolishness; but it gave him a sensation he had never experienced before, and which he would remember.

A murderer named Everard was sentenced to penal servitude for life a few days ago at Paris. His specialty was robbing beggars, and he only brought himself-into the clutches of justice when he so far forgot his methods as to murder two of his victims— a man and a woman.

"Sir, I understood that the reward which was to follow my—er—sacrifice of bachelor principles was to be freedom./' John showed some signs of annoyance, though too diplomatic to even raise his voice above the ordinary pitch.

As the squire spoke a hand was laid upon each of John's shoulders. . "I will go with you quietly, gentlemen. No violence, if you please, or you will find yourselves' handling a desperate man," was what the Federal said, and his manner impressed them «o far that they used no undue familiarity. The sarcasm of tbe squire's words could be plainly seen when the prisoner was ushered in the "boudoir" in question—a strong room that, had evidently served as a prison on moro than one occasion, perhaps for r * fractory slaves.

A curious custom was observed when the Forrest mill, Bacup, was restarted last week, after having changed hands. About forty persons assembled in one of the rooms, and a "consecration" service was held. Hymns were sung by the assembled persons and afterward prayers were offered for the success of the undertaking. This is the first service of its kind held in Bacup, but prayer meetings in mills are not uncommon. The custom was originated by the late John Bright, who at the commencement of the firm's large concern in Rochdale assembled the workpeaplfi_£X£ryimoxning and engaged in prayer for a few minutes.—London Telegraph.

The axles of two wheels of the las^ carriage broke and the wheels became detached from the carriage, carrying away a part of the flooring with them.

Westfleld, 111., Dec. 18th (Special)— AH who are suffering with Bright's Disease, should read carefully the following letter from the Rev. G. L. Good of this place. He says:.—-- "I feel it is my duty to tell you of the wonderful benefit I have received from the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills. I am a Minister of the Gospel, and in my work, I am frequently exposed to all weathers: Six years ago, I was laid up sick. I doctored with a number of physicians, and' finally consulted a specialist, but without success. They all told me I had Bright's Disease. I was in a bad way and almost helpless when, thank God, I heard of Dodd's Kidney Pills. They saved my life. I took sixteen boxes and now I am cured. Tne first day Itook them I felt relief. When I began I weighed only one hundred and five pounds, now I weigh one hundred and sfcty-nve and I am the picture of health. I recommend Dodd's Kidney Pills to all my friends who have Kidney Trouble and I pray to God that other sufferers wul read these Words and be helped, by them." Work in Painting Portrait.

The other three, Hocking, American, and Stetneman and Von Qratz, Ger* mane, all millionaires, agree to the aeheme, providing another man, Hiram Potta, An American, is taken Ua C*pt Hugh (Bull-Dog) Drumseond, a retired officer advertises :tm work that will give him excitement, signing "X10." A* a result be meeta Phyllis Benton, a young woman who answered his ad. She tell* him of strange murders and robberies by a band headed by Carl Beterson and Henry Lakington. She fears her father is involved. Drumroond goes to The Larches, Miss Benton's home, next door to The Sas, Peterson's place. During the ht Drummond leaves The Larches and explores The Elms. R e discovers Lakington and Peter- . sen using a thumbscrew on Potta, Who signs a paper. Drummond rescues Potts and takes him to his own home. He also gets half the paper, torn in the struggle. Peterson visits Drummond, departing with a threat to return and recover Potts and also the torn paper which Potts signed. The band abduct Hugh and a friend he has substituted for Potts and take them to The Elms. Peterson is furious over the mistake. •Si' CHAPTEB IV—Continued. A fixed determination to know what lay In that sinister brain replaced his temporary indecision. Events up to date had mowed go quickly that he had hardly had time to get his bearings; •ran [Bow the last twenty-four hours seemed almost a dream. And as he looked at the broad back and massive kead of the man at the window, and from him to the girl Idly smoking on the sofa, he smiled a little grimly. He had just remembered the thumbscrew _„ erf the preceding evenlne. Assuredly g-«nrnrT88rTy*Ti, -T-MH and switched on the light Then she faced him smiling, and Hugh looked at her steadily. "Tell me, you ugly man," she murmured, "why you are such a fool." Hugh smiled, and as has been said before, Hugh's smile transformed his face. "I must remember that opening," he said. "It establishes a basis of intimacy at once, doesn't It?" She swayed a little toward him, and then, before he realized her intention, she put a hand on his shoulder. "Don't you understand," she whispered fiercely, "that they'll kill you?" She peered past him half fearfully, and then turned to him again. "Go, you Idiot, go—while there's time. Get out of It—go abroad; do anything— but don't fool round here." "It seems a cheerful household," remarked Hugh with a smile. "May. I ask why you're all so concerned about me? Your estimable father gave me the same advice yesterday morning." "Don't ask why," she answered feverishly, "because I can't tell you. Only you must believe that what I say Is the truth—you must. It's just possible that if you go now and tell them where you've hidden the American you'll be all right But If you don't—" Her hand dropped to her side suddenly, "Breakfast will be at nine* ray Hugh: until then, an revoir." He turned as she left the room, a little puzzled by her change of tone. Standing at the top of the stairs was Peterson, watching them both in silence. . • • TWO. In the days when Drammend bad been a platoon commander he had done many dangerous things. The ordinary Joys of the infantry subaltern's life—such as going over the top, and carrying out raids—had not proved fMfflfllffitfnnfnr hl&yiiapnfttltp He.-haftpatrol never found anything. But whatever the report, Hugh Drummond only grlnnned and saw to his men's breakfast Which is why there are in England today quite a number of civilians who acknowledge only two rulers—the King and Hugh Drummond, And they would willingly die for either. The result on Drummond was not surprising; as nearly as a man may be he was without fear. And when the idea came to him as he sat on the edge of bis bed thoughtfully pulling off his shoes, no question of the possible risk entered into his mind. To explore the house seemed the most natural thing In the world, and with characteristic brevity he summed up the situation as it struck him. "They suspect me anyhow: in fact, they know I took Potts. Therefore, even If they catch me passage creeping, I'm no worse off than I am now. And I might find something of interest. Therefore, carry on, brave heart" It wag dark in the passage outside as he opened the door of his room and crept toward the top of the stairs. The collar of his brown lounge coat was turned up, and his stocking feet made no sound on the heavy pile carpet. Like a huge shadow he vanished Into the blackness, feeling his way forward with the uncanny instinct that comes from much practice. Every now and then he paused and listened intently, but the measured ticking of the clock below and the occasional creak of a board alone broke the stillness. To the. left lay the room In which he had spent the evening, and Drummond turned to the right. As he had gone up to bed he had noticed a door screened by a heavy curtain which he thought might be the room Phyllis Benton had spoken of—the room where Henry Laklngton kept his illgotten treasures. He felt his way along the wall, and at length his hand touched the curtain—only to drop It •™^jftwtffAifliiinr>i uj.EKfiimi^VWWmhfVtMWr -Mm ore*** *# it if, avwltt be eery stiff for some days- Another time—don't laugh, tt's dangerey*." Than. like a/ ghost, hi vanished along the passage in the diraetiqh of the tfovei M ' A l n % t > i * bis own room. At eight o'clock the aert morning a burly looking ruffian brought In some hot water aud a cup of tea. Aa he pulled up the blinds the light fell full on hit battered, rugged face, and suddenly Hugh sat up la had and stared at him. "Good Lord 1" be cried, "aren't you Jem Smith?" The man swung round like a flash and glared at the bed. "Wot the 'ell 'a* that got to do wtv you?" he snarled, and then his face changed. "'Why, strike me pink, If it aln'fr young Drummond.** Hugh grinned. "Right In one, Jem. What in the name of fortune are you doing in this .outfit? Given up the game?" , "It give me up, when that cross-eyed son of a gun Young Baxter fought that cross down at 'Oxton. Gawd I if I could j get the swine—just once again— .s'welp me. I'd—" Words failed the ex- ,bruiser; he could only mutter. Hugh smiled. "By the way, has anyone got a stiff neck in the house this morning?" "Stiff neck!" echoed the man. "Strike me pink if that ain't funny— cmim over .:fi**%.

"You ane also the type of mail who wttl continue on the path he has start ed. You are completely in the, dark; you have no idea whatever what you are up against." He amfied grimly, and turned abruptly on Hugh. "You fool—-you stupid young fool. Do you really Imagine that you. can beat me.$" The soldier rose and stood jn front ,of him. '•*•*! have a few remarks of my own to make," he answered, "and then we might consider the interview dosed. I ask nothing better than that the gloves should be off—though with your filthy methods of fighting, anything you touch will get very dirty. As you say, I am completely in the dark as to your plans; but I have a pretty shrewd Idea what I'm up against. Men who can employ a thumbscrew on a poor defenseless brute seem to me to be several degrees worse than an aboriginal cannibal, and therefore if 1 put you down as one of the lowest types of degraded criminal I shall not be very wide of the mark. There's no good you snarling at me, you swine; it does everybody good to hear some Lome truths—and don't forget It was you who pulled off the gloves." . Drummond lit a cigarette; then his merciless eyes fixed themselves,again on Peterson. "There is only one thing more,"Jis continued. "You have kindly warned^ me of my danger; let me give you a .word of advice In my turn. I'm going to fight you; if I can; I'm going to beat you. Anything that may happen to me is part of the game. But it anything happens to Miss Benton, during the course of operations, then, aa surely as' there is a God above, Peter* son, ^11 get at you somehow and murder you with my own hands." For a few moments there was si* lence, and then with a short ^laugh Drummond turned away. "Shall wa meet again soon.?" He paused at the door and looked back.

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

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

Then he leaned forward and once more moved 'the curtain. Instantly it came again, sharper ond angrier than before. Hugh passed a hand over his forehead and found it damp. Germans he knew, and things on two legs, but what was this that hissed so viciously in the darkness? At length he determined to risk It, and drew from his pocket a tiny electric torch. Holding It well away from his body, be switched on the light. In the center of the beam, swaying gracefully to and fro,, was a snake. For a moment he watched it, fascinated as it spat at the light angrily; he saw the flat hood where the vicious head was set on the upright body; then he switched off the torch and retreated rather faster than he had come. "A convivial household," he mut-" tered to himself through lips that were a little dry. "A hooded cobra is an unpleasing pet." Hugh had Just determined to reconnblter the curtained doorway again to see if it was possible to circumvent the snake, when a low chuckle came distinctly to his ears from the landing above. He flushed angrily in the darkness. There was no doubt whatever as to the human origin of that laugh, and Hugh suddenly realized that he was making the most profound fool of himself. To be laughed at by some dirty swine whom be could strangle in half a minute—was Impossible. His fists clenched, and he swore softly under his breath. Then as silently as he bad come down, he commenced to climb the stairs again. He had a hazy idea that he would like to hit something— hard. There were nine stairs In the'first half of the flight, and It was aa he stood on the fifth that he again heard the low chuckle. At the same Instant something whizzed past his head so low that tt almost touched his hair, and there waa a clang on the> wall beside him. Ha ducked Instinctively, and regardless of noise raced up the remaining stairs, on all-fours. His jaw was set like a vise, his eyes were blazing; in fact, Hugh Drummond was seeing red. He paused when he reached the top, crouching in the darkness. Close to him he could feel some one else, and holding his breath, he listened. Then he heard the man move—only the very faintest sound—but it was enough. Without a second's thought he sprang, and his hands closed on human flesh. He laughed gently; then he fought in alienee. —His opponent was strong above the average, hut after a minute he was like a child In Hugh's grasp. He choked once or twice and mattered something; ffien Hugh slipped his right hand gently onto the man's throat Bis fingers moved slowly round, his thumb'adjusted itself lovingly, and the man felt his bead being forced back irresistibly. He gave eee strangled cry,' and then the pisssaia relaxed. . . . "One brflMncb more, my gentle humorlst," Hugh whispered In his ear, LW^idd^^haj»_besn_ He Laughed Gently; Then He Fought in Silence. your asking, I mean. The bloke's sitting up in 'Is bed swearing awful. Can't move 'Is 'ead at all." "And who, might I ask, Is the bloke?" said Drummond. "Why, Peterson, o' course. 'Oo else? Breakfast at nine." The door closed behind him, and Hugh lit a cigarette thoughtfully. Most assuredly he was starting in style: Lakington's Jaw one night Peterson's neck the second, seemed a sufficiently energetic opening to the game for the veriest glutton. Then that cheerful optimism which waa the envy of his friends asserted Itself. ijuTetly.—*very row intiewtf Hugh stepped aut into the warm sunshine and'spoke to Ms chauffeur, -"Take her out into the main road, Jenkins." he said, "and wait for m« outside the entrance to the next house. I shan't be long." Then he strolled thrcugn the gar* den toward the little wlcket«gats that led to The Larches. Phyllis I The thought of her was,einging In his heart to the exclusion of everything else. Just a few minutes with her; Just the touch of her hand#lhe falat smell of the scent she used—and the* back to 'he game. He had almost reached the gate, when, with a sudden crashing in the, undergrowth, Jem Smith blundered out into the path. His naturally raddy face was white, and he stared round fearfully. . "Gnwdl sir," he crlftd, "tnind-O ""Supposln' I'd killed 'em," he~murmured, aghast "Just supposin'. Why, the bally show would have been over, and I'd have 'had to advertise again." Only Peterson was In the diningroom when Hugh came down. He had examined the stairs on his way, but he could see nothing unusual which would account for the thing which had whizzed past his head and clanged sullenly against the wall. Nor was there any sign of the cobra by the curtained door; merely Peterson standing In a sunny vroom behind a bubbling coffeemachine. He turned politely toward* his host, and paused In dismay. "Good heavens, Mr. Peterson, Is your neck hurting you?" "It is," answered Peterson grimly. "A nuisance, having a stiff neck. Makes every one laugh, and one gets no sympathy. Bad thing—laughter. . . . At times, anyway." "Curiosity *is a great deal worse, Captain Drummond. It was touch and go whether X killed you last night" "I think I might say the same," returned Drummond. "Yes and no," said Peterson. "From the moment you left the bottom of the stairs, I bad your life in the palm of my hand. Had I chosen to take it, mjr~young friend, I should not have had this stiff neck." Hugh returned, te his breakfast unconcernedly. . "Granted, laddie, granted. But had I not been of such a kindly and forbearing nature, yon wouldn't have had it either." He looked at Peterson critically. Tin Inclined to think It's a great pity I didn't break your neck while I waa about It" Hugh sighed and drank some coffee. "I see that I shall have to de It some day, and probably Lakington's as well. . By iaa„way^ h>w la ear Henry? I trust his Jaw in net unduly inconveniencing him." Peterson, with his coffee cap la his hand, was staring down the drive. "Tear car is a little early, Captain Drummond," be said at length. "Hewever, perhaps It can wait two or three sOnutes while we get Batters perfectly dear. I should dJsUks yea net knowing where yea stand." He tamed reaad aad faced the eeJdier.

'E's escaped) and If 'e meets a stranger—" Hi left the sentence unfinished, and stood listening. From somewhere hehlnd the house cams a deepthroated, snarling roar; then the clang of a padlock shooting home in metal, followed by a series of heavy thuds as If some big animal was burr lng itself against the bars of a cage "They've got It," muttered Jena, "You seem to have a nice little crowd of pets about the house," r» marked Drummond, putting a band ea the man's arm as he waa about ts move off. ''What Jwas that docile creature we've just beard calling ta fts young?' , The ex-pugilist looked at aim saV lenly. "Never you mind, sir; it ain't na business of yours. An' If I was yon. I wouldn't make it your business tt find out" A moment later he had disappeared Into the bushes, and Drummond was left alone. Assuredly a cheerful household, he reflected; Just the spot for a rest-cure. Then he saw a figure on the lawn of the next house which banished everything else from hit mind; and opening the gate, he walked eagerly toward Phyllis Benton.

"Sometimes it does," said the citizen whose Income Is $3,000 a year, "but, on the other hand, It Is a lot of satisfaction for me to know that I don't have to tell an Inquisitive public what 1 cat, what I wear, how I amuse my* self In my leisure moments and the exact state of my affections from day to day." seemingly have resulted In a strength enlng of the cause for which the conference was called instead of weakening It, as the attackers hoped'would be the case. Recently some of the criticisms of the plan for partial disarmament have become venomous. The attempt, of course,' is to sow proverbial seeds of dissension in a hitherto fair field of exchange between the foreigners who are here present It seems to be manifest today that not only the delegates who are here from abroad, but the American administration itself, think the assailants of the plan have overplayed their hand and have helped that which they were seeking to harm* The foreign delegates at first were astounded at the nature of some of the assaults on the American proposition for. a partial disarmament. They seemed staggered by the extent of the suddenly sprung opposition. Then they began to ask questions about It, and then they began to reason the thing out for themselves. Today they seem to have arrived at the conclusion that the cause Jn behalf of which they had met had been advanced by the nature of its enemy and the nature of Its assaults. Force of American Emotion. It may seem curious, but the fact probably Is not at all so, that the foreigners represented here have a feel* ing that the American "emotion," which brought about prohibition, Is going to force success for the plan which President Harding, through his secretary of state, has proposed. I have Inclination to meddle In what they, think are purely American affairs. One of them, voicing this feeling, said that foreign official comment was neither wise nor proper until congress and the people of the United States had given approval to anything which had been put forward in the way of suggestion. m ' Foreigners, Entertain Writers. The various delegations of foreigners who are here are giving a series of receptions to the multitude of writers who are assembled In Washington. The receptions are given under the direction or management of the embassies of the countries Interested. These affairs are Interesting because they are made In part vehicles by which to communicate to the correspondents the viewpoint of the government represented by the hosts. There Is some very plain speaking af these affairs and also at the daily or semi-weekly meetings in which some spokesman for each foreign government meets the newspaper correspondents. Some persons have caned these meetings propaganda affairs, and so perhaps in a way they are, (For the week ending December U, 19tt) Hay The hay market situation has weakened during the week because of increased receipts and a light holiday demand.

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

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

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

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

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

Lord Biddell meets the newspaper men every morning at 10:80 sharp at the navy building and gives to them the British viewpoint of everything that is going on, and he does It In a direct newspaper way, for Lord Blddell has been a newspaper man for a great many years. The life of this man has been aa interesting one. He owns and publishes a paper In London called The News of the World. It Is unlike other newspapers In a good many respects, for It does not content itself with giving the news of the world of today only, but seta forth the accumulated newt of a good many days In brief and pertinent manner. The success of thus paper may be judged by the fact that it has a circulation for each edition of 8,506,000 copies. This British newspaper proprietor, like Greene, the historian of the English people, spends every day "learning." He Is Interested in everything pertaining to his profession, and of course is Interested in other matters just as much.

ELMO ftCOTT WAT80N prawfng by Ray Walters S THE New Tear comes round and the world faces another 865 days of busi ness and pleasure, there conies np again the question of into what units those 860 days are to be divided so as to give the most of as the opportunity to employ them the most profitably and pleas antlytn other words, the question of a new calendar For centuries calendaring has been subject to many changes anJ man has not yet obtained a satisfactory result When the Gregorian calendar now In use, was adopted, it was designed to conform to conditions of that period in hlntorj But conditions have so changed that it Is not best adapted to modern needs Business, especially, complains that It is put out of step by the calendars Irregularities and business til demanding a more standardised system Theresolutlon to do something definite about this matter dates from 1924 when the League of Nations appointed a committee of inquiry to go into the matter fit reforming the calendar and making recommendations for Its change This committee sent questionnaires to 56 countries, which are members of the league, and to religious and business authorities throughout the world Replies to the questionnaires have been received from 27 governments, 26 international organizations, 18 railroad administrations, the educational authorities of 28 countries and from a host of individuals The need of a reform, as pointed out by the committee, is that the Gregorian calendar has the defects of Inequality of Its months, quarters and half years and Its lack of fixity The result is confusion la economic relations, statistics, accounts and commercial transport figures All calculations of salaries, interest Insurance pensions, leases and rents which are fixed on a monthly, quarterly or halfyearly basis are Inaccurate and do not correspond with onetwelfth, onequarter or onehalf of the year In order to make daily calculations in current accounts with comparative certainty and speed, banks have to make constant use of special tables, Moreover, the unequal length of the conths has led financial concerns In most European countries to calculate deposit and current accounts on the basis of a year of 12 mouths of 80 days, or 860 days, whereas In the discounting of bills the year is still reckoned at Its exact number of days Owing to the fact that the present calendar is not fixed, but changes from year to year, Its exact reproduction takes place only once every 28 yean Hence the dates of periodical events can never be fixed with precision And, perhaps the greatest drawback from a statistical and commercial point of view, no genuine etattsttett comparison between one year and Aaetter la possible, while the various subdivisions of the year Itjf self are similarly incapable of com pariioiL As the year consists of 52 weeks, or 86d days pins one extra day two tn leap year, the question confronting an schemes of reform is what to do with the extra daythe 865th Tbr suggested reforms fall Into three main troupe, The first croup tries to simplify the reform as much as possible and to cause the least possible disturbance to existing habits aad cuatoms This they do by equal ising three of the four quarters of the year Thus, each of the first three quarters might consist of 91 days, or three months of 80, 30 and 31 days The extra day, the 365th, would be added to the fourth quarter which might then consist of three months of 80, 81 and 81 days with 82 in leap years, Such leveling up of the quarters, would, It is declared, be of real advantage from the point of view of quarterly statistics, stock exchange transactions, banktng accounts, and meteorological averages Furthermore calculations for finding the day of the week on which any given date falls would be considerably simplified Thus, If January 1 fell on a Sunday February 1 would he a Tussday and March 1 a Thursday and so on This group Interferes less with tradition than any other The issue raised, however, is whether its advantage which are considerably less than those of the other two groups of sua gested reform, are sufficient to war rant a change Tbe second and third main groups not only possess all the advantages of the first croup In equalizing the divisions of the year, but In addition, that of establishing a perpetual calendar and completely rectifying the existing calendar The result Is ob tained by making the extra day of the yearthe 805tha blank day namely placing It outside the week, as for In stance, between December 31 and January 1 The introduction of the blank day however, breaks the per petuity of the cycle of weeks, and raises certain religious difficulties mainly In Jewish circles Under the second plan, the year would be divided Intn four equal quarters of 91 days, each quarter consisting of three months of 80 30 31 days as with the first three quarters of the first group Then the extra day of the year would be counted as outside the week It might he called New Tears day and precede January 1 In this way all the quarters and half years would be equal Each month could contain the same number of working days On he other band, the months are not equal, and could not be made to contain a complete number of weeks Dates would not fall on the same day of the week In each month, while the comparison of future dates or statistics with past dates Is less complicated than tn the 18month group, but more complicated than in the first croup The third group Is the one which advocates the most radical reform Typical of this group Is the proposal sponsored by George Eastman, the Rochester N T manufacturer, and supported by a large group of business men in this country By this plan the year would be divided Into 18 months, tbe extra month being Inserted between June and July Bach month would have 28 days, the first of the month always being Sunday The extra 365th day would be known as Tear day and would be Inserted between December 2S and January 1 in leap years the 366th day would be inserted between June 29 and Jull Some of the advantages clulmed are that clock and watch dials could record day and date, that the four weeks would quarter each mouth, har monizing weekly and monthly receipts and disbursements, that pay days would recur ou the same month ly date, that periods of earning and spending would all be equal or exact multiples, that holidays and permanent monthly dutes wouLd always occur on the same days, that all months would be comparable without adjust ments, thut all holidays could be placed on Monday, and that there would be a faster turnover of money with 18 months instead of 12 While business would find many of these points advantageous, It has been pointed out that the 13month year would present certain objections, due to the fact that 13 to oot divisible by two, four and six So the quarters of the year, although they are equal, would oot correspond tn months or contain a whole number of months Advocates of the plan reply that quarterly and semiannual transactions could be worked out on a basis 01 13 or 26 weeks aim that many large firms in tills country already are us ing 13 28day periods In their ac counting systems One objection tn this plan, and It is one which prob ably will be hardest to overcome, Is that the 13month year would upset customs thousands of years old There is one particular reason why 1928 may see a definite step taken toward reforming the calendar 11 the committee can present to tbe League of Nations u satisfactory plan which it can recommend to the world for adoption, It should be done by December, 1929, since that is the last date when changes may be made for 1933 by the Greenwich and United States naval observatories Calcula tions for the attrononomlcal, tide and other tables are made about six years In advance by the British, American French, German and Spanish govern meats, and scientists already have begun their calculations for 1968 The year 1988 Is a particularly Important one for those whose reforms tion of the calendar calls for begin nlng the year on Sunday, since tbe first available Sunday on New Tears day comes tn 1988, after which none is available until 1989 Therefore, if the League of Nations committee can decide a plan which the league will adopt before December, 1929, tbe aim plifled calendar can go Into effect most easily in 1988 and the coming year probably wfU see tome strenue efforts made to bring that about Being en Time It baa been said that piiunaaitty ts the politeness of princes Save you

Intend it that way If I didnt want to buy something, Pd have no business in that store, therefore, asking me such a question is Intimating that 1 either mean business or Im just killing time Whats the use of trying to guess my Intention Even though 1 might be only aimlessly wandering around, It wouldnt make any bit with me to tell me that youd caught me at it If youre bent on making a guessing contest out of my visit, why dont you guess that Im there to buy Then, even if youve guessed wrongly, you wont lose anything When I hear some clerk ask this question they give me the impression tint although their lips may be speaking those apparently harmless words, their minds are saying Oh, Lord, heres another pest well, what do you want tn here Then the thing I want most is to get out If your vocabulary is so limited that you cant find any better words to say to a visitor, try saying them in such a way that your inquiry wont amount to an Insult IJDUU find that tbe fault however, Is not in

President in 1928 My statement stands No one should be led to suppose that I have modified It My decision will be respected After I had been eliminated the party began and should vigorously continue the serious task of selecting another candidate from among the numbers of distinguished men available The committee then took up the question of the convention city, hear ing the offers of the several contestants Chairman Butler aroused s good deal of animosity by declaring bis preference for Kansas City, and a hot fight between that city and San Francisco resulted On the twentieth bal lot Kansas City won, and the committee at once Issued s call for the convention to meet there on June 12 Mr Coolidges elimination of himself was followed by a statement by Charles Evans Hughes that he was not to be considered a candidate, end, though Senator Willis announced that he was willing to accept the honor, there were left but three major contenders for the nominationFrank O Lowden, Herbert Hoover and Vice President Dawes The selection of Kansas City was regarded as rather favorable to Lowden and Dawes Under the terms of the call for the convention the basis of representation will be the sameas in 1924 There will be one delegate for each congressional district and one additional delegate for each district polling 10,000 or more votes for the Republican candidate for President In 1924 or Republican candidate for congress in 1926 Then there will be four delegates at large for each state and three additional delegates for esch state carried by the Republican ticket in 1924 There will be

are sound Business activity began in the spring months of this year to fall below the totals of last year, says the report As result of this recession business is now being conducted on a basis that conforms more nearly to the normal expectancy, as Judged from the reg ular rate of growth of the country While business is not as active as in most of 1926, it can hardly be said to be subnormal, and the underlying fundamentals appear to be sound Another indication of healthy business conditions is the recent recovery in commodity prices, due in the main to the rise in agricultural prices The

less when the moou is directly over it than when it is near the horlson Similarly Bill Smith and his automobile, little Willie Smiths teddy bear and Mrs Smiths dainty pearl earrings all lose welgbt under the potent influ ence of Luna So says a bulletin from the Washington D C headquarters of the National Geographic society dealing with the moons tideraising force As a matter of fact, continues the bulletin, everything on which the moon shines directly down loses certain amount of its weight But there need be 110 fear that we will go floating moonward the downward pull of gravity, wbicb keeps objects on the earths surface Is 10000,000 times as great as the lifting power of tbe moon In other words, tbe greatest effect of tbe moon on a given object Is to steal away onetenmllllonth of Its weight In the case of large bodies, like the Leviathan, this fracton of the total weight is appreciable But even the heaviest limousine would lose only the tiniest fraction of an ouncebe tween six and seven onethousandths This would be equivalent to removing only three or four drops of gasoline from the fuel tank Tluck 8 single fiber from the fuzzy coat of Willie Smiths teddy bear and you would probably equal the moons effect In reducing Its weight And carefully wiping the imperceptible 00000000000000000000000000 Thirteenth Woman Can Find No Husband BerlinThere are 800000 superfluous women

doubt, quite outdo the lunar influence on them Moonshine and the Tides But in spite of the small effect of the moons attraction 00 everyday objects Its total result on the earth is very marked Its most notable ef fect is to create the tides of tbe oceans which, in turn, affect the worlds seaborne commerce, its fisheries, the sanitation of its harbors, snd even mans seabathing activities, in years to come this moonforce may be harnessed to create power already plans are under way for the construction of tidal power stations How does the moon decrease weight In the same way that the earth creates It The law of gravitation formulated by Newton states that every body in existence In the universe attracts every other body Any two bodies are drawn together, however, with a greater or less force, depend ing on whether they are big more accurately, have a great mass or whether they are little have a small mass and also depending on whether tbey are close together or far apart Weight In Terms of Gravity When you, an adult, say that you weigh 150 pounds, you really mean that your mass is attracted by the huge earth, when you are on Its sur lice, witb tbe same force with which it attracts 150 lead or brass or iron units, which we arbitrarily call pounds Because a baby baa mud leaa mass than you, it la drawn to ward the center of the earjh with A smaller force, and we say that H weighs 8 or 10 or 15 pounds, But the moon attracts your mass 1n exactly the same way that the eartft does It la, however, 23fU mile, awaya times as far away as the center of the earthand it has only ooeelgbtierb aa mudr mass aa the earth 80 its attraction for yon b less than that of the earth Its pull on you is tremendously leas ihan might appear at first consideration, because any gravitational pull at reduced in proportion to the square of Its distance It figures out that the moons pull at the earths surface is only one tenmillionth that of the earth When the moon exerts Its greatest lifting force on you, therefore, when It floats directly overhead It only succeeds 1 reducing your weight by an amount less than a fifth of a drop of water1 Orders Divorced Pair to Live in Same Hoot

Baas cherries grew, fragrant narcissus that reminded you spring would be here come day, and in the center of the dis play was a great basket of pink roses Josephs daughter, Katie, helping in the shop daring the vacation from high, school, fitted about In shortSkirted jflannel arranging growing plants baskets and glowing red and green decorations just for the pleasore pf Ijforthe shop was already as trim and fresh as any customer could frtsb Joseph, bit eyes bright with the light of the Christmas spirit that ComeS to ns at this time, stood contenteSiy4plmg flat on a counter, and looked out at the street He saw a loy who might have been Sixteen Of eV en teen, though small for those yaers pilt procialined its own tbreadbareness, as well as the boys thinness, by the way it clung to him Be tried to pull his ragged cap down over ears that were flaming with cold, and Joseph thought he shrank from putting the worn soles el, his shoes against the freezingcold peefflenL Bat at the boy came oppo site the florists window he sheered inward on th4kfewalk to look at the display of those wares that only people who have satisfied their needs in good and clothes can afford to buy Joseph noted with pity the pinched Nature, the look of grim control in the lac of one so young It was the great basket of pint roses that held his attention, Joseph, expected to see him torn away with the look of resignationmanx more prosperous seeming people have when they must pass the temptation of flowers To his surprisethe iad, seeming to settle the coat m little more closely on his side the radiator, it being a frosty morning v Phank you, I will, the boy stretched numb fingers over the steamy heat after he had taken off his cap in deference to Katie, who watched him sympathetically while she pretended to retie the satin ribbon around a pot of poinsettia But I want to buy some roses Like those in the window Ah, the Killarneys, smiled Joseph They are bonny flowers, the Klllarneys He stepped lightly to the refrigerator at the back of the shop and, taking out a bouquet of the roses, brought them forward for the young mans inspection The lad thrust a hand into his pocket Joseph and Katie saw him put back a nickel and two pennies The rest he spilled onto the counter, because his hand trembled with cold Theres only a dollar and a half, he said How many will that buy The florist shook his head Not BO many of these, son But let me show you We have some here we call sec onds He retraced his steps and drew forth another bouquet Oh, those are finer yet cried the boy They look so, said Joseph fairly, but they will not last quite so long They bloomed too soon, for there were not enough people wanting roses yesterday, when they should have been sold I will take those, said the boy of the sandy hair, the glow in his blue eyes seeming to warm his whole body, but they are to go to a little town east of here Could you mail them for me to Mrs R B Arnold, at Laddonia Joseph, scribbling slowly on the pad he drew toward htm, could only think of the miserable nickel and two pennies he had seen the boy put back in his pocket And he thought Sure, now, why wouldnt he be sending them tq some bonny lass lrke my Eafce instead of a Mrs This is only some woman who has charmed1 the bid for pastime, or more like its some fine lady, his teach er perhaps, would dislike to know, hes spent his last money for these He overcame a natural hesitationit was none of his business how the young boys spend their moneyand leaned across the counter toward the boy , Sure, an wouldnt ft be better now if you took the money across the street there and got yourself a good ney means all the romance of the world to her And how she loves the roses She says they seem to her like they had souls or the little peo ple was in them I must send her the roses for Christmas so she will think, do you see, that I am doing well, for I havent enough money to take me all the way home, like I wanted to go Sure, Terry, youre talking the blarney now yourself, the florist smiled through misty eyes At the kindness in that voice the boys head suddenly went down on the counter and he was sobbing with heartbreak Katie, if hes more than fifteen after all was Josephs whispered exclamation before he rounded the counter, to put an arm across the boys shoulders There now, Terry Tell me all about it, lad, he urged, and Terry did, snuffling after the deluge of tears, So you ran away because the mother wanted you to stay in school And youre homesick for the little cottage, with the flowerpots inside In winter and in summer the rosebushes green Just Inside the door he shivered with deUgh in tte warmth Joseph saw he had sandy heir and ores of Irish blue Ifefreealng he Is, the poor hoy, Joseph murmured to Katie, fcnd sure the shop looked friendly breakfast at my friend Tlmmy OMaras Are you sure you want to send the lady these flowers, and you the shop briskly, with only seven sents left to your Oh, yes, insisted the boy, who with thawing out by the radiator had lost much of his shrunken appearance, yon see, theyre for my mother Your mother exclaimed Joseph, consulting the memorandum he had Aild would you nke to

boy that had run off and left his mother I dont know who at home would, but I would For afternoons when school hours are over Its hard to find boys who love the flowers, isnt it Katie Katie, suddenly appealed to for con versatlon, uttered a breathless yes, but there was an expansive smile of approval with It Tour mother might as well sew In the city, the florist went on, and theres a fine high school where they have classes to teach you about grow ing flowers As Joseph Reagan took his hat from a peg and opened the door, Terry nod ded dumbly and the glow in his eyes, though it may have been produced by anticipation of breakfast, was not lessened by the thought of school Shall I mail these roses to Mrs Arnolfl, father asked Katie No No What are you thinking oft Those seconds will be a day

in the allmash for egg production, according to D OL Kennard, station poultryman, is to increase the meat scraps from 5 to LO per cent and decrease the corn from 70 to 66 per cent Coarsely ground wheat may be used instead of middlings In the mash And for best results, Mr Kennard would also use milk in some form Success with allmash feeding the laying pullets, especially for winter eggs, is

Conservation Heavy snowfall and sleet storm frequently mean hunger lor a largo number of ground feeding binds By establishing winter feeding stations where needed, sportsmen and others interested in birds can do much tiuej winter to help insure a good crop of birds for next year, the Department advises Feeding stations need be neither expensive nor troublesome, the Department says, in making suggestions to those living in areas where ground feeders such as pheasants and quail are known to frequent Feeding birds during the winter is largely a matter of keeping suitable food above the level of the sonw or ice Corn, wheat or other grains may be used for feeding Ears of corn may be spiked to a limb or board placed just above the snow line Shelters are effective and may be built by leaning a few branches against a fence and covering with burlap, evergreens or corn stalks Some use feed hoppers or boxes placed where they may be reached by the birds Feeding stations are most effective when placed at the edge of a swamp or in brush along fences The most effective feeding station is the least artificial, it is suggested Farmers who leave shocks of corn in the field and keep the snow from piling too high around them are do ing much to insure the birds obtaining plenty of food during the winter O PH1LATHEA NOTES The class held its December meetGrace Gardner, Mortgagee,
